For a moment, these three hundred people actually blocked the two hundred Light Cavalry, covering Wang Chong and the hundred people escorting Emperor Xian of Han to escape in the direction of the Deep Mountains!

"Damn it!"

Lü Kuang was very anxious when he saw this, but he was held tightly by Cao Xing and could not escape to pursue him for a while. He could only watch the one hundred people fleeing towards the Deep Mountains.

However, at this time Yuan Tan has led his troops to kill.

He only glanced at Battlefield and noticed Lü Kuang who was fighting with Cao Xing and others, and Wang Chong and others who escaped from Battlefield.

There was also the familiar figure among the crowd, whose hands were tied and dragged away by Wang Chong.

"It's Son of Heaven!"

Yuan Tan recognized the man's identity at a glance, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart - why did these guys tie up Son of Heaven?

But this doubt was fleeting, and Yuan Tan was more excited. He immediately ordered, "Surround Battlefield! Quickly deal with the Enemy Army who is fighting General Lu!"

"Bodyguards Unit follow me to rescue Son of Heaven!"

The Personal Guards under his command are all Elite Troopss. Both Weapons and Equipments and Warhorsess are top-notch. It is easy to chase down a group of the Enemy Armys who can only escape on foot.

After Yuan Tan gave the order, the army quickly divided into two groups.

The infantry went to rescue Lü Kuang.

Three hundred Personal Guard followed Yuan Tan to chase Wang Chong and others to rescue Son of Heaven.

Cao Xing, who was fighting Lü Kuang, also noticed the surrounding army. While his expression changed drastically, he also felt extremely bad in his heart.

Especially when he noticed that Yuan Tan led a group of people to kill Wang Chong and others, it was even harder to remain calm.

"The thief shall die!"

Lü Kuang took advantage of Cao Xing's distraction and stabbed him.

But Cao Xing reacted much faster than he imagined.

I saw Cao Xing taking advantage of the situation to grab Spear who was stabbing Lü Kuang, making him unable to draw his gun, and then cut off Lü Kuang's head with a knife!

At the same time, Qing Province Army was also surrounded.

With thousands of troops, he couldn't break out of the encirclement.

But Cao Xing has no plans to escape.

He took a deep breath, took off Longbow from his back again, pulled out the last arrow in Quiver, and pointed it at the escaping Emperor Xian of Han, with a cold look in his eyes.

Bend your bow like the full moon!

"Wha--!"

The bow string vibrated lightly, and the sharp arrow whistled out.

Go straight to Emperor Xian of Han!

At the same time, Cao Xing's body was pierced with spears by many Qing Province Army Soldiers who surrounded him, and then he was knocked off his horse.

Just die.

Yuan Tan heard Lü Kuang's death scream, so he looked back and saw Cao Xing drawing his bow and aiming it at Emperor Xian of Han, and his heart suddenly felt like Shock!

"This guy wants to kill Son of Heaven?!"

Yuan Tan never expected that this group of people would be so ruthless. Seeing that they could not escape, they chose to kill Son of Heaven.

Seeing Cao Xing shoot out an arrow, Yuan Tan immediately rode forward and waved his gun to block the arrow. However, the arrow was too powerful and he was unable to deflect it. Instead, he was hit in the left eye by the arrow!

"Ahhh!"

Yuan Tan screamed and fell off the horse. His left eye was bleeding profusely and he was rolling around on the ground in pain, sweating profusely.

"Eldest Son!"

Many Personal Guards were shocked when they saw this, and they quickly reined in their horses and wanted to check on Yuan Tan, but Yuan Tan roughly pushed away the Personal Guard who were surrounding them and roared, "Go and protect Son of Heaven!!"

"Quick!!"

Although the Personal Guards were worried, they did not dare to disobey Yuan Tan's orders. They mounted their horses and continued to chase the deserters. The distance between the two sides soon became very close.

The Soldierss around Wang Chong had no choice but to turn around and resist.

When Wang Chong saw Pursuing Troops who had already killed him behind him, his expression changed again and again, and finally he looked at Emperor Xian of Han with a fierce look on his face.

He remembered that Your Majesty said that if there was no way to escape, Pretender Emperor would be executed immediately!

"What are you going to do..."

Emperor Xian of Han also felt the murderous intention of Wang Chong and retreated in horror.

"Suffer death!"

Wang Chong didn't talk nonsense with him at all, just cut him off with one knife!

But at this moment, Dong Cheng next to Emperor Xian of Han suddenly rose up and bumped into Wang Chong desperately, knocking him sideways.

And under the impact of Dong Cheng, Wang Chong's knife also struck the air, and Emperor Xian of Han once again escaped death, breaking out in a cold sweat.

Wang Chong was hit on the head by Dong Cheng. Although his eyes were filled with stars, he still did not forget his duty. He gave the order to the surrounding Famous Scholars soldiers, "Go! Kill this Pretender Emperor!"

"Someone! Help, help!"

Emperor Xian of Han was so frightened that he panicked and ran away.

Before the few Famous Scholars soldiers could catch up, the Yuan Tan and Personal Guard soldiers had already eliminated the Soldiers who were blocking them and killed them!

They eliminated Soldiers who was chasing Emperor Xian of Han in three strokes. Even Wang Chong died under their Spear and fell to the ground, still staring at Emperor Xian of Han.

Immediately afterwards, a group of Personal Guard rode their horses to Emperor Xian of Han who was trembling with fear. They all got off their horses, knelt down and saluted. "I'm waiting for help to come too late! Please forgive me Your Majesty!"

Emperor Xian of Han looked pale and was panting.

He looked at the group of Personal Guard in front of him, still in shock. He didn't know what was going on and what the background of the group in front of him was.

"You, who are you?"

The leader Personal Guard said, "We are Personal Guard under Governor of Qing Province, and we have been ordered to come to rescue Your Majesty!"

"Governor of Qing Province...Yuan Tan?"

Emperor Xian of Han's expression changed. Isn't that Yuan Shao's son?

Has he just emerged from the tiger's den and entered the tiger's mouth again?

Although Emperor Xian of Han felt desperate in his heart, he still managed to smile and said, "You Soldiers rescued me bravely, I will definitely remember your contribution."

"Where is Governor of Qing Province?"

Personal Guard said respectfully, "Your Majesty, please come this way."

Emperor Xian of Han left with this name Personal Guard.

Soon he met Yuan Tan.

But at this time, Yuan Tan was in very bad condition. He was lying on the ground, his face was as white as gold paper, and there was an arrow stuck in his left eye. He looked like he was dying.

Personal Guard came to Yuan Tan and said with a heavy expression, "Eldest Son, we rescued Your Majesty!"

Yuan Tan opened his eyes slightly and weakly.

He was on the verge of death at this time, and reached out to summon Personal Guard, asking them to take Son of Heaven to You Province.

But when Emperor Xian of Han saw this, he misunderstood and thought that Yuan Tan wanted to talk to him, so he squatted down, held Yuan Tan's hand and asked, "Ai Qing, do you have any last words to say?"

Emperor Xian of Han also felt a little emotional.

Although he didn't know why Yuan Tan, as the son of Yuan Shao, didn't support Pretender Emperor but instead sacrificed his life to save him, he was still a major contributor to the rescue.

Without Yuan Tan, he would be dead now.

Yuan Tan gritted his teeth and tried hard to pull out his hand, but Emperor Xian of Han held his hand tightly and wouldn't let go, making him anxious and angry, but he had no strength to speak.

"Aiqing, what's wrong with you, Aiqing?"

"I'm here."

Emperor Xian of Han held his hand tighter.

Yuan Tan was so angry that he was shaking all over, and finally his head tilted and he died.

"Eldest Son!"

Seeing this, many Personal Guards cried out in grief.

They all knelt down towards Yuan Tan.

"Oh, what a pity."

Emperor Xian of Han sighed in his heart, it turned out that Yuan Tan was actually a very loyal minister, he was completely different from his father Yuan Shao, yet he was so loyal to him.

After all the Personal Guards cried, the leader Personal Guard choked up and said, "Your Majesty, what should we do now? Please give Your Majesty instructions."

Everyone present looked at Emperor Xian of Han.

Yuan Tan died, and Lü Kuang also died on the spot.

The only one who can give orders right now is Son of Heaven.

Emperor Xian of Han was stunned by Personal Guard's words.

Follow his orders?

At this time, Dong Cheng happened to run over. After hearing what Personal Guard said and seeing Yuan Tan lying dead on the ground, he was first shocked and then overjoyed.

So he quickly pulled Emperor Xian of Han aside, lowered his voice and said to him, "I understand, Yuan Tan and his soldiers recognized you as the real Son of Heaven!"

"Now that Yuan Tan is dead, these Soldiers are leaderless, so they can only obey your orders!"

Dong Cheng was very excited. He had also wondered why Yuan Tan wanted to rescue a Pretender Emperor at all costs, but after hearing those words of Personal Guard, he suddenly understood.

It turns out that Yuan Tan actually recognized Pretender Emperor as True Son of Heaven!

That's why he led the army to intercept it!
