However, just as Shi Xie finished speaking, a voice came from outside.

"Shi Xie, you are so bold. Don't you know that whether you can leave Fanyang City alive is up to me?"

As the voice fell, Gu Rubing walked in from outside.

After Shi Xie and his men left, Wei Yan reluctantly entered the tent and woke up Gu Rubing inside. After all, his snoring was so loud that Wei Yan could not delay any longer.

After Gu Rubing woke up, he felt that it was about time, so he took Wei Yan to the outside of Shi Xie and his men's tent, and just happened to hear Shi Xie's words.

When they saw Gu Rubing coming in, the expressions of Wang Yue and the other two suddenly changed.

But before Wang Yue could make any move, Shi Xie hurried to Gu Rubing.

"Shi Xie, the governor of Youzhou, greets King Lie."

Having said that, Shi Xie knelt down in front of Gu Rubing.

Gu Rubing was also shocked by Shi Xie's reaction. This was the first time he saw Shi Xie being so servile to him.

After all, they are all modern people, and kneeling in front of others is a naked humiliation for them.

"Youzhou Mu, what are you doing? Get up."

After Gu Rubing finished speaking, he did not go to support Shi Xie, but walked directly to the main seat and sat down, but did not let Wang Yue and the others sit down.

Shi Xie stood up from the ground and looked at Gu Rubing.

"King Lie, we want to leave. What do you want?"

"Of course I have a request, but I'm a little curious whether you can satisfy me."

"King Lie, as long as you tell us, even if we can't satisfy you, we will find a way to satisfy you."

Gu Rubing felt a little obedient after hearing this and did not wave.

"Alright, my request is very simple. I want your life, Shi Xie. As for the reason, I think I don't need to explain it, right?"

Hearing this, Wang Yue stood directly beside Shi Xie and looked at Gu Rubing vigilantly.

Shi Xie had not expected that Gu Rubing would ask for his life as soon as he opened his mouth. If he died, then why had he been so humble for so long?
Thinking of this, Shi Xie looked at Gu Rubing and said in a deep voice: "King Lie, I'm so sorry, I can't satisfy you with what you said, why don't you change it? I can leave tens of thousands of people in the city for you."

"You don't think I can let you take these tens of thousands of people away, do you? No matter what, I'm going to take this person, and I'm going to take your life, too."

After saying this, Gu Rubing waved to Wei Yan who was standing beside him.

Wei Yan just clapped his hands.

Countless soldiers rushed into the tent and surrounded the three men.

Seeing this, Shi Xie looked at Gu Rubing behind him.

"King Lie, is there nothing to discuss?"

"Of course, as long as you die, I can let everyone go, including Wang Yue and Shi A, these two famous generals. What do you think?"

Shi Xie was silent for a moment after hearing this. Wang Yue and Shi A did not speak, but waited quietly for Shi Xie's choice.

After a long while, Shi Xie shouted directly: "Okay, I'll leave my life to you, let them go."

Upon hearing this, Wang Yue immediately looked at Shi Xie.

He didn't expect that Shi Xie would actually give up his own life in exchange for their lives.

"Okay, Wang Yue and the others can go now, but Shi Xie, you can stay."

As Gu Rubing's voice fell, a gap opened up in the crowd, just enough for one person to pass through.

Shi Xie looked at Wang Yue.

"After returning, find a way to get everyone out."

According to Shi Xie's previous character, he would never agree to his own death, but looking at Gu Rubing's appearance, Shi Xie knew that he would definitely die today. Since he was bound to die, he might as well be a good person before he died, just in case Wang Yue could try his best to take him out.

This time, Shi Xie made the right bet.

Wang Yue really had no plan to keep Shi Xie here, and he had a backup plan before coming to see Gu Rubing.

"Don't worry, we can all get out of this alive."

Wang Yue smiled and patted Shi Xie on the shoulder, then nodded to Shi A who was standing beside him.

The two of them took out a porcelain bottle from their arms and poured out the contents.

Wei Yan saw that it was actually a pill.

Looking at the appearance of this pill, Wei Yan actually felt somewhat familiar.

Soon, Wei Yan remembered that this seemed to be the same elixir that the Gu tribe had given to Zhou Yu and others.

"No, stop them quickly."

However, Wei Yan's voice was a little late. By the time everyone reacted, Wang Yue and Shi A had already swallowed the pills.

Immediately afterwards, everyone felt that the momentum of these two people was rising sharply.

"Don't you want to keep us here? I want to see if you have the ability to keep us here."

After saying that, Wang Yue swung out with his sword.

A burst of sword energy directly cut several approaching soldiers into two halves.

Wei Yan couldn't help but gasp when he saw this.

Although such means are not as good as those of legendary generals, they are definitely better than those of a famous general like him.

At this time, Wei Yan had changed the task of killing the two people into protecting Gu Rubing.

He saw Wei Yan coming to his side and looking at the battlefield with great vigilance.

Although Gu Rubing could not see the situation on the battlefield, he could feel from the momentum displayed that the current advantage was probably not in his hands.

"My lord, let's retreat first. It's a bit dangerous."

"Retreat? This is my camp. Where do you want me to retreat to?"

After Gu Rubing finished speaking, he sat down on the chair and watched the battle in front of him quietly.

Gu Rubing looked as steady as an old dog, but actually he was very panicked inside. After all, he could feel that Wang Yue was about to kill him.

But he knew that he could not leave. Once he left, his camp would be in complete chaos.

Wang Yue looked at the countless people in front of him, and he vaguely felt that it would be difficult to kill Gu Rubing in this way. By the time the time was up, the two of them would be in a weak state and would not be able to leave even if they wanted to.

"Shi Xie, let's go!"

Wang Yue shouted, and then opened a path for Shi Xie.

The three of them fought their way out of the camp.

Seeing the three people leave, Wei Yan immediately bowed his head to Gu Rubing and said, "My lord, I will go after them."

"No need, just see which direction they go." "Okay."

Wei Yan nodded and immediately sent someone to inquire about the whereabouts of the three people.

The reason why Gu Rubing didn't let them chase him was because he was worried that they would fall into their trap. Now it would be difficult to stop Wang Yue and Shi A with just ordinary soldiers.

Soon, the spy sent back the news.

The three did not return to Fanyang City, but left Zhuo County and headed towards Guangyang County.

Gu Rubing knew that the three men wanted to use the tens of thousands of people in Fanyang City in exchange for a chance to escape.

Three hours later.

Wang Yue and Shi A were running when they suddenly felt weak all over and fell to the ground.

Upon seeing this, Shi Xie immediately stepped forward and helped the two men onto a rock nearby.

"How do you feel?"

"Not very well. I feel weak all over. The side effects of the elixir are too strong. We don't even have the strength to stand up now, let alone run. You don't have to worry about us. Let's go to Jundu County in Guanghan County first. There are enough supplies for defending the city there."

"If you want to go, let's go together. I'll stay with you."

Shi Xie did not leave, not because he really worried about Wang Yue and the others.

But Shi Xie knew in his heart that a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Even if Wang Yue and Shi A were completely exhausted, they were still stronger than him. If he stayed here, at least there would be someone to help him if he encountered danger. But if he walked alone, it would be dark on the road and he might die if he encountered some wild beasts. If he ran into bandits, he would not even know how he died.

The two of them didn't know what Shi Xie was thinking at the time, but when they looked at Shi Xie, there was some excitement in their eyes.

The three of them sat on the rocks, no one spoke, and they all waited quietly.

But Gu Rubing was not idle at this time.

Without its commander, Fanyang City was quickly captured by Gu Rubing. However, what surprised Gu Rubing was that there were still 30,000 war horses in the city. This was a rare treasure for Gu Rubing.

After resting in the city for two days, Gu Rubing handed over all matters to Wei Yan, and then Gu Rubing personally rushed to Liangzhou.

Gu Rubing was already prepared. If anyone dared to delay his good deeds, he would make Sun Jian cut off some pieces of his flesh this time no matter what.

However, when Gu Rubing arrived in Liangzhou, it was not known whether Sun Jian had already known that Shi Xie was safe, or he knew that he was coming, so he withdrew all the 100,000 troops, and even the two legendary generals left the vicinity of Liangzhou.

Taishi Ci breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.

Taishi Ci knew very well what a legendary general was like.

Huang Zhong's arrow is still vividly remembered by him.

"My Lord, since Sun Jian and his men have already withdrawn, we don't have to worry anymore, right?"

"I wasn't worried that Sun Jian would attack Liang Province. This time he was probably just trying to intimidate us in order to get me to let Shi Xie go. Now that Shi Xie has gone back, his goal has been achieved, so he left naturally. But Sun Jian comes and goes as he pleases. Does he really think that my Liang Province is his base?"

Gu Rubing snorted coldly.

Soon, two people appeared in front of Gu Rubing.

They are Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei respectively.

"Brother, you finally let me, Old Zhang, come out. If I don't come out to stretch my muscles, my bones will become paralyzed."

Seeing Zhang Fei's aggrieved look, Gu Rubing smiled.

"Third, don't worry, it will be your turn soon."

Soon, Gu Rubing gathered 50,000 men and chased Zhou Yu directly.

Zhou Yu did not expect that Gu Rubing would actually chase him out, and that he would be accompanied by two legendary generals, Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei.

"Gongjin, what should we do now? They are obviously chasing us. Should we run away?"

Gan Ning walked up to Zhou Yu and felt helpless about this.

Originally according to Gan Ning's idea, since they had already offended Liu Bei, they might as well offend him to death and take over Liangzhou. This way, their trip would not be in vain and they would have a safe place to defend. But now their trip was completely in vain and they had also offended Liu Bei, a follower who was chasing them all the time.

"Run! I don't believe they will enter the territory of our Anluo Empire."

After saying that, Zhou Yu quickened his pace and everyone hurriedly followed.

Gu Rubing followed behind at a moderate pace. His target was not Zhou Yu, but Sun Jian in Constantinople.

Two days later, the two groups entered the territory of the Anluo Empire one after another.

Zhou Yu didn't expect that Gu Rubing actually dared to chase in.

"What on earth is Liu Bei trying to do? He brought 50,000 men and two legendary generals into our territory. We are just wandering around Liang Province. This is too much."

Zhou Yu muttered softly, but he had no intention of turning back to fight back, he just increased his speed.

A few days later, Gu Rubing finally reached Constantinople.

After Zhou Yu entered the city, he immediately led everyone to defend the city.

Soon, Gu Rubing was seen chasing after him.

Zhou Yu immediately ordered the city gates to be closed and kept Gu Rubing and others out.

"King Lie, what exactly is the matter that brings so many people here?"

Zhou Yu stood on the city wall, looking at Gu Rubing below and shouted loudly.

"Can't you come for a stroll if you have nothing to do? Your Anluo Empire is really too chaotic. I wouldn't dare to come here alone without some people. You have to understand me. I have no ill intentions at all. Don't misunderstand me."

"Don't worry, King Lie. We are very safe here. There are not as many robbers and bandits as you have over there. You can ask the two people behind you to go back. As long as they go back, I promise to open the door to welcome King Lie."

"Really? If it's so safe, is it necessary to go to Liangzhou to train troops?"

"This……"

Zhou Yu fell silent upon hearing this.

No matter how they explained the matter of going to Liangzhou for training, they would never be able to explain it clearly. In this case, they might as well pretend that they knew nothing, and perhaps they could get away with it.

"King Lie, we are just training troops near Liangzhou. I'm afraid you will think too much. We strictly control the border position. We can even avoid crossing the border."

Looking at Zhou Yu's expression, if he hadn't known the people around him already, he might have really believed it.

However, Gu Rubing was too lazy to argue with him, and immediately asked Zhou Yu to open the city gate.

Before Zhou Yu could say anything, he saw Zhao Yun coming out with the silver spear in his hand shaking constantly.

Seeing that Zhao Yun was going to sell, Zhou Yu knew that once Zhao Yun took action, their city wall would be lost. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, Zhou Yu weighed the pros and cons and finally opened the city gate.

"Gongjin, if you let them in, then we..."

"I want to hold them back, but between you and the eldest master, who is a match for Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei? If you say that you can stop those two, I can close the city gate again. Can you do that?"

Hearing this, the two of them immediately fell silent.

They might be able to have some confidence against Zhang Fei, but against Zhao Yun, isn't that a joke? (End of this chapter)
