Chapter 390: Kill Shen Pei and crush Liu! Enemies always cross paths, I will avenge General Gongsun!

"Your Majesty!"

Wen Chou, who was running wildly, was shocked to see Yuan Shang fall off his horse, so he quickly reined in his horse and turned back.

"Ziqin, save me, save me~~"

Yuan Shang, who had landed on the ground, ignored the pain in his back and continued to crawl forward, shouting.

"Save me, save me—"

Shen Pei, who also landed on the ground, also asked Wen Chou for help.

Now everyone was like a frightened bird, and they were only concerned with escaping. No one noticed that Yuan Shang and Shen Pei were shot and fell off their horses.

Apart from Wen Chou, no one else turned back to rescue them.

When Wen Chou rushed up to the two men, he hesitated.

I only have one horse and can barely save one person at a time. If I try to save two people, how can one warhorse possibly carry three people?
The Black Mountain Cavalry was right in front of them, and if they couldn't increase their speed, all three of them would die in the siege of the Black Mountain Cavalry.

This means that he can only sacrifice one person to save one person.

"The Yuan family cannot live without the king. Shen Zhengnan, I'm sorry!"

Wen Chou gritted his teeth and made a decision immediately.

He kicked the horse's belly and galloped towards Yuan Shang. He reached out his hand to lift Yuan Shang up and placed him on the horse's back. Then he turned his horse around and chased after the main force.

"Wen Chou, you, you——"

Shen Pei, who was lying on the ground, was filled with grief and anger when he saw that Wen Chou chose to save Yuan Shang and abandon himself.

But soon, the grief and anger turned into helplessness.

After all, Yuan Shang was the King of Wei. As a minister, it was understandable that Wen Chou chose to save Yuan Shang and abandon him.

"Forget it. If it were me, I would definitely choose to save the King of Wei..."

Shen Pei let out a long sigh, then struggled to get up.

When I looked back, I saw the dark Black Mountain cavalry approaching like a tide.

Zhang Yan was riding his horse, spear in hand, only seven steps away from him.

He can't escape even if he has wings!
Either be captured, die in battle, or surrender.

He had no other choice.

"Third Master, I, Shen Pei, will use my life to delay you for a moment longer."

Shen Pei felt a strong determination to die heroically and immediately drew his sword.

He took a deep breath, held up his sword, dragged his wounded body, and charged towards Zhang Yan.

"Black Mountain Bandit, I will fight you--"

Before he uttered the word, Zhang Yan arrived like the wind, and the silver spear in his hand shot out like lightning.

"puff!"

Before Shen Pei could see clearly how Zhang Yan attacked, his heart had already been pierced by the spear.

"what--"

With a shrill and tragic howl, Shen Pei fell to the ground with his head raised, blood spurting out of his chest.

"This guy should be Shen Pei. Cutting off his head is also a great achievement."

Zhang Yan cut off Shen Pei's head, then rode his horse to urge his troops to continue pursuing Yuan Shang.

And in the front.

Wen Chou had thrown the wounded Yuan Shang into the carriage where Liu was.

Now Yuan Shang had a shoulder injury and could not ride a horse, so he could only flee in a carriage like Liu.

However, the carriage was filled with many pearls, jades and valuables, and with the weight of two living people, Liu's mother and son, it could not increase its speed at all, let alone escape the pursuit of the Black Mountain Light Cavalry.

Zhang Yan behind him was still chasing him and getting closer.

"Queen Mother, King, quickly throw away all the useless things, otherwise we will be caught up by Zhang Yan in no time!"

Wen Chou shouted into the carriage.

Yuan Shang had just breathed a sigh of relief when his heart trembled again. He hurriedly opened the car door, endured the pain, picked up the boxes filled with pearls and jade, and pushed them out.

"Shang'er, don't throw them away. These are rare treasures~~"

Liu was so distressed that she stopped her son and begged him.

Yuan Shang rolled his eyes at him and roared:
"We are all going to die, what's the point of having these precious things?"

"Throw it away, throw it all away!"

Yuan Shang pushed Liu away and pushed all the boxes out of the car regardless of the consequences.

Mrs. Liu looked at the pearls, jades and treasures she had accumulated over the years, which were all thrown away by her son. Her heart bled and her eyes shed tears.

Finally, the carriage was empty, leaving only him and his mother.

The carriage had lost a lot of weight and was significantly faster.

Behind the car, the figures of Zhang Yan and the Black Mountain Cavalry were approaching at a slower speed, but were still approaching.

"My king, the carriage is still too heavy, throw it again!"

Wen Chou's urging voice sounded again.

Yuan Shang looked around and found that there was nothing left to throw except himself and his mother.

It would not be the case that he would throw his mother Liu down as well.

When this thought flashed through his mind, Yuan Shang's body shook and his eyes suddenly stopped on Liu.

His eyes became colder, his face darker, and his fists clenched tighter.

Liu noticed something was wrong from her son's eyes. She shuddered and subconsciously shrank to the corner of the carriage.

"My king, throw more! If the enemy catches up with us, I won't be able to save you!"

Wen Chou's anxious voice was heard again outside the carriage.

This urging shattered Yuan Shang's remaining hesitation and crushed the little humanity left in his heart.

Yuan Shang's eyes instantly filled with bloodshot. He grabbed Liu's arm and dragged her towards the car door.

"Shang'er, no, no!"

"I am your mother. How can you bear to throw me off the carriage? Do you want me to die?"

Liu was terrified and sad, struggling desperately and begging. But Yuan Shang's face was as hard as steel, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"Mother, you are a woman. Even if you fall into the hands of the enemy, Liu Bei will not kill you."

"If my son falls into the hands of the big-eared thief, he will surely die!"

"If I die, the Yuan family will be finished, and the Wei Dynasty will be finished."

"Mother, please save your son!"

Yuan Shang shouted out high-sounding reasons and used all his strength to drag Liu to the door of the car.

"You beast, I'm your mother!"

"You killed your own mother in order to save your life. You will be despised by the world and punished by God—"

Liu held on to the car door tightly and refused to let go, cursing in grief and anger.

Her persistence and her scolding not only failed to wake Yuan Shang up, but instead completely angered him.

"Mother, don't blame your son. You taught me all this!"

"You taught your son that in order to achieve his goal, he must do whatever it takes, even killing his own brothers!"

"What I am doing now is just following your instructions, mother!"

Yuan Shang cursed back with confidence, then kicked Liu's hands with all his strength.

"Crack!"

The fingers that Liu was holding onto the car door were kicked off.

With a howl of pain, Liu fell off the carriage and fell heavily to the ground.

After pushing Liu off the carriage, Yuan Shang seemed to have exhausted all his strength and collapsed to the ground as if he had fainted.

"Mother, your sacrifice will not be in vain. I swear to heaven that I will live well."

"Not only will I survive, I will also protect the legacy my father left me!"

"I swear--"

Yuan Shang murmured to himself, trying to comfort himself with self-deception.

Then he looked at Liu again and closed the car door.

A dozen steps away.

Liu fell face down on the ground, and due to inertia, she slid forward several steps when she landed.

When Liu stopped, her face was scraped by the gravel ground, and was bloody and unrecognizable.

"My face, my face—"

Liu touched her bloody face and screamed like crazy with fear.

At this moment, two words popped out of her mind:

retribution!

When Yuan Shao was unconscious, she killed all of Yuan Shao's concubines out of jealousy.

Not only were they killed, but before killing them, the faces of those poor concubines were also disfigured.

She never dreamed that one day she would be kicked off the carriage by her son and end up with her face disfigured.

"This is retribution, is this retribution?"

Liu touched her bloody face and cried out in pain and regret.

At this moment, thousands of Black Mountain Chu cavalrymen from behind were rolling in like a torrent.

Their goal was to chase Yuan Shang, but who would have noticed that there was a woman lying on the ground.

The cavalry continued to charge forward, trampling over Liu's body.

"Ahhh-"

The extremely miserable howls were soon drowned out by the deafening sound of horse hooves.

Liu was soon trampled into pieces and disappeared in the rolling dust.

In front, Yuan Shang and less than a hundred Yulin Guards, escorted by Wen Chou, were still running wildly.

After Liu was kicked off the carriage, the speed of the carriage finally increased. They ran for their lives, gradually leaving the Chu army behind them further and further behind.

"Finally got rid of that black mountain bandit."

"It seems that I, Yuan Shang, have a destiny that will not end, and there may be good fortune in the future..."

Yuan Shang breathed a sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted off his shoulders.

He was completely unaware that another group of people appeared on the hillside beside the road.

This group of people was not the Chu army.

This group of men consisted of no more than fifty riders, all of them riding white horses, and each of them holding a silver spear.

The leading general was eight feet tall, shaped like a pine tree, wearing silver armor, holding a silver spear, with a resolute face and sharp eyes.

The silver-armored general rode a warhorse that was completely snow-white, without a single spot of color on it. Only the long white hair around its neck made it look like a lion.

At this moment, the general on the white horse and the silver spear was gazing far away in the direction of Yijing.

"General, Yijing is only seven or eight miles ahead."

"But if we want to go to the King of Chu, we have to bypass the barrier of Yijing, otherwise we will be blocked by the Wei army."

A guard beside him pointed in the direction of Yi Jing and said.

The silver-armored general nodded slightly, but said with emotion:

"It has been nearly ten years since we last saw Xuzhou. I never thought that Lord Xuande would one day march to Hebei and kill Yuan Shao!"

"I hope it's not too late for me to surrender to Lord Xuande now, and I can help him defeat Yuan Shang, which can be regarded as my revenge for General Gongsun."

After saying this, the silver-armored general put away his sigh and was about to ride his horse down the hill.

At this moment, he keenly noticed that a group of Wei troops were passing by hurriedly at the bottom of the slope.

This place is not far from the Yijing defense line, so it is not surprising to see the Wei army. The silver-armored general did not want to alert the enemy, so he wanted to let this team of Wei troops pass.

Getting closer, getting closer.

Suddenly, he saw a familiar face among the Wei army.

"Wen Chou?"
