Trembling, the soldier pulled out a secret letter and handed it to Zhou Debiao. Zhou Debiao opened the letter and saw that it was handwritten by the prefecture overseer, saying that a large number of bandits had attacked Zhengzhou. He sent out a secret letter and handed it to Zhou Debiao, requesting him to quickly return.
Zhou Debiao knew that if the True Continent was destroyed by these bandits, then he would definitely lose his head. Even if he managed to survive, he would only be able to live for the rest of his life. And all of this was caused by this Bao Qin Wang. Thinking of this, Zhou Debiao looked at Ye Feian with a hint of hatred in his eyes.
”Ming Jin, retreat! Return to Zhengzhou immediately!” Zhou Debiao shouted to the soldier beside him, turned his horse around, and was about to leave.
Ye Feian, who was still indulged in the beautiful fantasy of killing Ye Lianhe, felt infuriated after hearing Zhou Debiao's order. He pulled out the long sword at his waist, pointed at Zhou Debiao and said, ”General soldier Zhou, what is the meaning of this? The thieves are about to be killed, yet you're withdrawing? ”
A discerning person would also know that although there were only two hundred or so bandits, they were fierce and fierce. His soldiers had already lost more than a hundred of their men, but he was still unable to do anything to them, and if he wanted to exterminate these bandits, he would need to waste at least a few more hours here. By that time, not to mention returning to the main province to reinforce it, the bandits would have already plundered everything and left the main province.
”Your highness, please forgive me for being powerless, but your highness also heard that it is very dangerous at the moment. If I were to continue acting recklessly, I'm afraid that at that time, your highness would have to meet me in the underworld.” With that, Zhou Debiao left, leaving Ye Feian in a frenzy.
However, this time he only brought a few dozen warriors and lost a lot of them. It would be impossible for him to face the Peach Blossom Mountain bandits on his own right now.
”Go!” ”Return to the capital!” Ye Feian glared angrily at Ye Lianhe and the others in the distance. He clenched his teeth and gave an order to his subordinates. Then, everyone left on horseback.
Everyone on the mountain was still fighting when they heard a loud cry of gold. When the soldiers who were still fighting heard the order to retreat, they were ecstatic. They wanted to throw away their armors and run away.
At this time, the experts of the Peach Blossom Mountain were already exhausted from the battle and seeing the enemy retreat, they all sat on the ground paralyzed.
”Why did all these Leng Zi run away?”
The bandits who had managed to escape death were discussing animatedly.
”It seems like the city of Zhengzhou is already in chaos.” When Ye Lianhe saw his pursuers retreat, he finally let out a sigh of relief.
”Prince, are you hurt?” Huangfu Xiong wiped the willow leaf blade on his belt back and forth as he asked Ye Lianhe with concern.
”Thank you for your concern, Great Master. This King is uninjured.” Ye Lianhe said to Huangfu Xiong with a smile.
”Since they've already left, let's go down the mountain and join up with that mad girl and the others.” As he spoke, he stood up to leave.
”Boss, you're a real man.” Ye Lianhe clasped his hands at Huangfu Xiong, ”When this duke returns to the capital, I will bestow you with a great gift in return for your gratitude.”
