"Kill the tyrant!!"

"Kill the tyrant! Kill!!"

In this chaotic moment, a group of assassins suddenly jumped out from the woods on both sides of the road. They were dressed in black, with black cloth covering their faces, revealing only a pair of murderous eyes. With deafening shouts of killing, they attacked the team like a tide.

"Kill!" "Charge!" Shouts of killing echoed in the air. The assassins brandished their swords, flashing with cold light and full of killing intent. The guards reacted immediately and drew their swords to meet the enemy. The sound of metal colliding and shouting intertwined, and a fierce battle broke out in an instant.

Blood splattered in the sun, and the sound of swords clashing could be heard. The dead soldiers attacked frantically, trying to break through the guards' defense line and approach the chariot where Qin Shihuang was. The guards fought desperately, using their bodies to build a solid defense line to protect Qin Shihuang's safety.

"Help me!" "Help!"

A panicked cry for help came from behind, and Yi Huawei turned around to see. In the chaos, Princess Chenxi's carriage was startled and rushed towards the bandits like a wild horse. The carriage shook violently in the bumps, and the curtains were blown up by the wind. In the carriage, Princess Chenxi was pale and terrified. Her eyes were wide open, and her hands tightly grasped the edge of the carriage, trying to stabilize her body.

Seeing this, Yi Huawei did not hesitate at all. He decisively turned the horse's head. The horse's hooves raised a cloud of dust and made a rapid "clacking" sound. He clamped his legs against the horse's belly, urging the horse to speed up and gallop towards Princess Chenxi's carriage.

"Zhao Fuling, save me!"

In panic, Princess Chenxi saw Yi Huawei rushing towards her from the corner of her eye and screamed loudly. Her voice was full of fear and helplessness. Looking at Yi Huawei, she seemed to have grasped a ray of hope in the darkness.

"Princess, take my hand!"

Yi Huawei shouted loudly, his voice echoing in the chaotic air. While trying to control the horse, he reached out his hand to Princess Chenxi.

As the horse approached, his hand got closer and closer to Princess Chenxi, like a bright light in the darkness, bringing hope of life to Princess Chenxi.

Princess Chenxi tried to steady her body that was shaking with fear, and reached out to grab Yi Huawei's hand. Just when their fingertips were about to touch, a gangster suddenly rushed over from the side, holding a knife and about to chop at Yi Huawei. Yi Huawei's eyes were stern, and he quickly dodged sideways, while raising the whip in his hand and knocking the gangster to the ground.

“Grab my hand!!”

Yi Huawei reached out his hand to Princess Chenxi again, and this time Princess Chenxi held his hand tightly. Yi Huawei pulled Princess Chenxi from the carriage to his horse. When Yi Huawei held her behind him, Princess Chenxi immediately hugged Yi Huawei tightly around the waist.

"Hold on tight!"

Yi Huawei shouted loudly, turned his horse's head, and galloped towards the back of the team. While dodging the horses running around, he raised the whip in his hand to attack the bandits. The whip made a sharp whistling sound in the air, and each swing accurately hit the approaching bandits. Although the bandits were fierce, they could not get close to him for a while under Yi Huawei's swift counterattack.

Galloping to the middle of the army, Yi Huawei pulled the reins to stop the horse. Princess Chenxi then slowly loosened her hands around Yi Huawei's waist. Her face was still a little pale, but her eyes were a little calmer.

Yi Huawei helped Princess Chenxi get off the horse. Princess Chenxi still had fear in her eyes, but she was more grateful to Yi Huawei:

"Thank you, Lord Zhao. If it weren't for you, I would be..."

Princess Chenxi's voice trembled a little. Looking at Yi Huawei covered in blood, she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart.

"This is my duty, Princess. Please rest here for a while. I will go and see what's going on with His Majesty."

Now is not the time to be polite. Yi Huawei whispered a warning and then turned to look at Lang Wei beside him: "Protect the princess!"

"Yes!" The Lang guards immediately surrounded Princess Chenxi.

"Lord Zhao..."

Princess Chenxi shouted loudly: "Be careful."

"it is good!"

Yi Huawei got on his horse again and galloped towards the chaotic battlefield. At this time, the battlefield was still filled with shouts and cries of killing. The guards were fighting fiercely with the bandits, with swords flashing and blood staining the ground red. Yi Huawei rushed into the battlefield, alternating between the whip in his hand and the sword at his waist, and the bandits fell down wherever he went.

After a fierce battle, the Langwei Army gradually stabilized the situation and began to fight back against the bandits. With their well-trained combat skills and tenacious fighting spirit, they pushed the bandits back step by step.

Suddenly, a man stood up from the ground. In the sunlight, his figure looked like a demon that suddenly rose up, with a resolute momentum. He spun rapidly several times in place, as if he was gathering strength, and then suddenly threw out an object. The object made a sharp whistling sound in the air and flew straight towards the convoy.

"Protect Your Majesty!"

The warning sounded like thunder, echoing in the air. The guards heard the sound and quickly raised their shields to try to stop it, but they were still a step too slow. The huge iron hammer rotated with unparalleled power, smashing towards Qin Shihuang's carriage like a falling meteor.

"Boom!"

There was a loud earth-shattering sound, and the entire ground seemed to be shaking. The Langwei soldiers had no time to react and could only stare at the scene in front of them in amazement. In the convoy, a golden car at the back was hit by a heavy object and made a heart-pounding sound of breaking. The six horses also fell to the ground under this huge impact, raising a cloud of dust. The neighing of horses and the exclamations of people were intertwined, and the scene was in chaos. The atmosphere instantly became tense and terrifying, as if the end of the world had come.

"Protect His Majesty!! Kill!"

Yi Huawei glanced at the Golden Root Car that was hit, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he knew that Qin Shihuang was not in the car. He quickly moved his eyes away from the broken car and refocused on the fierce battle in front of him. He watched the strongman pick up the giant hammer and continue to swing it at the Langwei. The giant hammer made a whirring sound, and every time it fell, the ground shook slightly. The huge iron hammer was swung by the strongman and smashed towards the Langwei. If it hit them, they would be injured, and if it hit them, they would die!

Yi Huawei leaned down, quickly picked up a halberd, and held it tightly, feeling the weight and texture of the weapon in his hand. His eyes became sharp, and he aimed at the target. Then, he threw it at the strongman with all his strength.

The halberd was like a flash of lightning, drawing a graceful arc in the air.

"call…"

"puff!"

A whistling sound came, and before Canghai Jun could turn around, he felt a sharp pain in his back. The pain spread throughout his body like an electric current, causing his body to freeze and he could not move. He slowly lowered his head and saw a long halberd deeply inserted into his body, from his back to his chest, and blood was flowing down along the halberd.

Canghai Jun's eyes widened, full of astonishment and unwillingness. He never thought that he would fall like this, and in such a fierce battle, his life would end so easily.

Blood slowly overflowed from the corner of his mouth, and the blood looked particularly glaring in the sunlight.

He turned his head slowly, as if he wanted to take another look at the battlefield, at his companions and enemies. Canghai Jun's eyes were filled with complex emotions, including regret for the unfinished mission, fear of his life fading away, and unwillingness to accept this fate.

In the end, it turned into nothingness...

The surrounding bandits were stunned when they saw Canghai Jun fall. They stared at Canghai Jun's body blankly, as if time had stopped at this moment. The morale that had just been raised was instantly hit hard, and the originally excited fighting spirit seemed to be extinguished by a basin of cold water. Some people were terrified, some were at a loss, and the entire bandit team began to waver.

The Langwei were greatly encouraged. "Wind! Wind! Wind!"

The shouts of the Langweis resounded on the battlefield like thunder. It seemed to inject new vitality into them. They waved their weapons and rushed towards the bandits more bravely.

After dealing with Canghai Jun, knowing that the situation was settled, Yi Huawei rode his horse to the front of Qin Shihuang's carriage. The dust raised by the horse's hooves slowly fell in the air.

Sitting firmly on the horse's back, his posture as straight as a pine tree, Yi Huawei turned his head and looked at the battlefield indifferently. His eyes seemed to be able to penetrate everything, calmly examining the aftermath of the ongoing battle.

Zhang Han, who was rushing over here, saw Yi Huawei nail the strongman to death with one halberd, and his heart was filled with emotion. He looked at Yi Huawei deeply, and the emotions in his eyes were complicated and difficult to discern. Perhaps there was a hint of surprise, surprise at Yi Huawei's quick and decisive skills... or perhaps there was also a sense of scrutiny.

His gaze stayed on Yi Huawei for a moment, and then Zhang Han moved towards the battlefield and began to direct the soldiers to carry out the final cleanup and finishing work.

The shouts and cries on the battlefield gradually subsided. The noise that was once as surging as waves now receded like a tide, leaving only a heart-wrenching silence.

The groans of wounded soldiers and the aftermath of weapons clashing intertwined, reverberating like a tragic symphony across the desolate battlefield. The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood and gunpowder, as if silently telling of the brutal battle that had just taken place.

Yi Huawei was still sitting on the horse, like a sculpture, motionless. His stern face seemed covered with frost, without a trace of emotion.

"Xiao Yue...Zhao Gao???"

Looking at Yi Huawei's back, Yu Shu was stunned, feeling unbelievable. Her beautiful eyes were full of shock and confusion, as if she couldn't understand the familiar yet unfamiliar Zhao Gao in front of her. After a while, she turned her head to look at Xiaoyue.

"I do not know either…"

Xiaoyue's voice was a little hoarse, and she shook her head woodenly, as if she was shocked by the scene of the killing. After a moment, she took a deep breath and said slowly: "Old... Zhao Gao was bullied by the imperial kitchen before..."

Although Li Si was surprised at the force displayed by Yi Huawei, now was obviously not the time to chat. He was still capable of cleaning up the mess, so he immediately began to arrange the follow-up matters in an orderly manner.

Zhang Liang's heart sank when he saw Lord Canghai dead. He knew immediately that the situation was hopeless. The situation on the battlefield was clear, and it was futile to continue fighting. He made a prompt decision and shouted to the few soldiers around him: "Retreat!"

After hearing the order, the assassins immediately followed his footsteps. They rushed left and right in the chaotic battlefield, trying to get rid of the pursuers behind them.

At this time, Zhang Han also discovered their traces, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes. He immediately jumped on the horse, clamped his legs on the horse's belly, and rode in pursuit. The horse's hooves raised clouds of dust, and Zhang Han held the weapon tightly in his hand, his eyes fixed on Zhang Liang and others in front of him.

Under the protection of several death-defying warriors, Zhang Liang ran all the way until he reached the edge of the cliff.

There was a bottomless cliff in front of him, a winding river below the cliff, and Zhang Han chasing him from behind. There was no way to retreat. Zhang Liang gritted his teeth, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he jumped down. His figure drew an arc in the air and quickly disappeared under the cliff.

After chasing to the edge of the cliff, Zhang Han frowned at the direction where Zhang Liang and his men jumped down. Looking down, he saw the river rushing and the waves surging, and Zhang Liang and his men had disappeared.

After pondering for a moment, Zhang Han turned around and went back to report.

On the other side, seeing that all the death soldiers had been captured, Yi Huawei frowned slightly, told the guards beside him to protect Qin Shi Huang, and began to check the casualties of the soldiers. His eyes swept over the injured or fallen soldiers one by one, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.

"I didn't expect that Lord Zhao is so skilled?"

At this moment, Li Si came over with a faint smile on his face. His eyes flickered a few times as he looked at Yi Huawei, as if he was re-examining the man in front of him.

When Yi Huawei heard Li Si's words, he turned around, looked at Li Si calmly, and said lightly:
"Master Li, you are too kind. I am just doing my best. These assassins are coming with such force that if we don't go all out, I am afraid we will cause greater losses."

Li Si asked, "Is your Majesty okay?"

"Your Majesty and Princess Chenxi are safe and sound,"

Yi Huawei had a strange smile on his face and shook his head: "The person sitting in the passenger car that was hit was the emperor's uncle... He shouldn't have been sitting there, but he wanted to show off his power, saying that as the emperor's uncle, he should be higher than all the civil and military officials. He was higher, but he never came back..."

"This is also God's will! Fortunately, Your Majesty! Fortunately, Princess!"

Li Si nodded slightly, glanced at the battlefield around him, and said, "Zhao Fuling remained calm in the face of danger and commanded properly. If it weren't for you today, the consequences would be disastrous."

"It's all thanks to Prime Minister Li and the soldiers who fought so hard."

Yi Huawei waved his hand and changed the subject, saying, "It is my job to protect His Majesty. But the mastermind behind these assassins must be found out as soon as possible to avoid further trouble."

Li Si said thoughtfully: "Well, this matter does need to be thoroughly investigated. But for now, let's deal with the matters of these casualties first."

The two looked at each other and knew in their hearts that this time, there would probably be another bloody storm.

The sound of horse hooves rang out on the ground like rapid drumbeats, and then stopped abruptly. Zhang Han rode his horse all the way to the front of Qin Shihuang's carriage, with fine beads of sweat on his forehead, sparkling in the sun.

"Your Majesty!"

Without bothering to wipe the sweat off his face, Zhang Han quickly dismounted from his horse, his armor making a slight clanging sound as he moved. Zhang Han knelt on one knee and said respectfully to the carriage, "One assassin escaped with injuries, and the rest have been killed."

"And another? Who?"

Ying Zheng's calm and indifferent voice came from the carriage, without any joy or sadness, as if he was talking about something very ordinary. Although the voice was not loud, it carried an unquestionable majesty, as if it could penetrate the air and make the people around him straighten their backs unconsciously. The curtain of the carriage swayed slightly, but it was impossible to see Ying Zheng's expression inside.

Zhang Han's heart trembled, and he felt an invisible pressure coming towards him. He lowered his head slightly and whispered, "I have sent people to arrest him everywhere!"

Qin Shi Huang said quietly:

"What a big world, and what a lot of Jing Kes!"

There was an elusive emotion in his tone, like feeling or anger. The majestic voice echoed in the air, as if carrying an endless sense of oppression.

Zhang Han's forehead was covered with beads of sweat. He bowed his head and said, "I deserve to die!"

"Within ten days, I want to see the head of this hero!"
