On the wedding day, my wife was abnormal

Lin Zhen slowly lifted the curtain of the carriage.

Not far ahead of them, on the mountain path, a makeshift roadblock made of boulders and logs had appeared out of nowhere.

On both sides of the valley, on the steep cliffs, there were many figures and flags waving.

Countless soldiers clad in black armor and wielding powerful bows and crossbows, like demons crawling out of hell, looked down at the trapped troops below with eyes full of bloodlust and greed.

A chilling aura instantly enveloped the entire valley.

"There's an ambush!"

Yue Fei, who was walking at the very front of the group, noticed something was wrong.

He pulled hard on the reins, his bronze, resolute face filled with solemnity.

"All troops on high alert! Protect His Majesty and the Prince!"

He drew his saber from his waist, his voice booming like a bell, and the hundred battle-hardened guards behind him reacted instantly.

They quickly formed a circular defensive formation, tightly protecting Lin Zhen and Murong Yan's carriage in the center.

The long sword in his hand gleamed with a cold, icy light in the sunlight.

"Hahahaha!"

Right then, the atmosphere became tense, like a battle about to erupt.

A burst of triumphant and arrogant laughter suddenly came from the high cliff.

Immediately afterwards, a young general, about thirty years old and with a sinister face, wearing silver chainmail, stepped out from the crowd.

His face wore an undisguised smile, full of schadenfreude and ambition.

"Yue Fei, how have you been?"

The young general looked down at Yue Fei, who was surrounded by them, his voice full of mockery.

"Murong Ke?"

Yue Fei stared at the figure on the cliff face, a figure he knew all too well. His hawk-like eyes widened instantly!

Murong Ke, the beheaded Prince Cheng, was the eldest son of Murong Zhao!

After King Cheng's rebellion failed, he vanished without a trace, as if he had evaporated from the face of the earth. The court dispatched countless spies and experts, but none of them could find his whereabouts.

Everyone thought he had died in some unknown corner, but unexpectedly he appeared here today with so many soldiers!

Judging by this formation, there are no fewer than five thousand soldiers lying in ambush on the cliff!

"Are you surprised?"

Murong Ke looked at Yue Fei with a shocked expression, his smile growing increasingly smug and arrogant.

"I told you long ago that I would definitely come back."

His gaze swept over everyone else, fixing fixedly on the blue cloth carriage that was being protected. His sinister eyes were filled with greed and possessiveness.

"Get that vixen who only knows how to hide behind men out here!"

His voice was like a thunderclap, echoing throughout the entire valley.

"Today, I, the young master, will act on behalf of Heaven and purge the court of corrupt officials! I will avenge my father's tragic death!"

His words, full of inflammatory rhetoric and righteous indignation, caused the rebel soldiers behind him, who were originally Cheng Wang's former subordinates, to roar in unison!

"Revenge! Revenge!"

The roar of shouts, like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing, echoed throughout the entire valley.

Looking at the indignant rebel army before him, Yue Fei's bronze-colored, resolute face showed an unprecedented solemnity.

It seems unlikely that things will end well today.

"Protect His Majesty and the Prince! Prepare to break out!"

Yue Fei's voice was resolute and unwavering.

He knew very well that in this desperate situation of being surrounded by enemies on all sides, holding out and waiting for reinforcements was tantamount to waiting for death. The only way out was to concentrate all forces and charge in one direction, which might allow them to fight their way out.

"Breakout?"

On the cliff face, Murong Ke heard Yue Fei's words and laughed wildly as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.

"Hahahaha! Yue Fei, do you think I'm a fool? Do you think I'll give you a chance to break through?"

He waved his hand sharply, his voice filled with smug satisfaction at having the victory in his grasp.

"Fire arrows!"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Following his order.

The thousands of rebel archers, who were already prepared, instantly released their bowstrings!

A dense rain of arrows, like locusts blotting out the sky, poured down on the convoy below, which had become sitting ducks, accompanied by a piercing whistling sound!

"Raise your shield!"

Upon seeing this, Yue Fei's eyes widened in fury, and he let out a hoarse roar!

Without any hesitation, his one hundred personal guards immediately raised their shields high, forming an indestructible steel dome!

Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding! Ding!

Countless arrows crashed against the shield, producing a sickeningly loud metallic clang!

Sparks fly!

The first wave of arrows was successfully blocked.

But the arms of those guards, which were gripping their shields, were ripped open and bleeding profusely from the enormous impact!

Before they could even catch their breath, a second and a third wave of even denser arrows followed!

"Pfft——!"

Finally, one of the guards, exhausted, broke a small gap in his shield.

A deadly arrow, which had been waiting for a long time, suddenly pierced through the gap and fiercely penetrated his throat!

The guard didn't even have time to let out a scream before he collapsed to the ground.

His fall was like a domino that had been toppled, instantly triggering a chain reaction.

More and more guards, exhausted, fell to their deaths in pools of blood, struck in vital areas by the ever-present arrows.

That once indestructible steel dome began to become riddled with holes.

"Your Majesty! Your Highness! Quick! Get out from the back!"

Yue Fei looked around at his comrades falling one after another, and his hawk-like eyes were instantly replaced by blood red. If this continued, all of them would die here!

He turned his horse around, brandishing his saber, and charged madly toward the path behind him that was blocked by boulders and logs, intending to use his sword to carve a way out for His Majesty and the Prince!

"Stop him!"

On the cliff face, Murong Ke saw Yue Fei's fearless appearance, and a cold killing intent flashed in his sinister eyes.

He knew very well that as long as he killed Yue Fei, the soul of the Great Qian army, he could succeed.

The rest, being a motley crew, are not to be feared.

Following his order.

Already, hundreds of rebel axemen, who had been lying in ambush on both sides of the road behind, rushed out of the mountains and forests like demons crawling out of hell!

The battle axes and longswords in their hands gleamed with a bloodthirsty cold light in the sunlight!

They frantically surrounded the man, who, in their eyes, was no different from a dead man!

"court death!"

Yue Fei, seeing the reckless rebels who dared to obstruct him, let out a thunderous roar!

The sword in his hand drew a deathly arc through the air!

Pfft——!
