    Seeing that the defense line formed by them was about to break through, suddenly, a loud and neat sound of horse hooves suddenly broke out.

    ¡°Spread out!!!¡±

    A majestic and powerful shout came out. When the soldiers of the civilian army heard this, they suddenly burst into joy and scattered in all directions.  Ma Chao and Xishi Jingqi suddenly saw Wen's army scattering and were about to pursue them. Ma Chao suddenly frowned and stared at a troop of soldiers and horses galloping in front of them.

    "Kuan!!!"

    Ma Chao's handsome appearance suddenly turned ferocious, and at the same time, his angry eyes quickly became dignified.  Guan Yu didn't reply and led his troops to continue charging up the high slope.

    "The Western Lion Elite Cavalry obeys the order and breaks through this army for me!!!"

    In terms of fighting alone, Ma Chao did not dare to boast that he defeated Guan Yu, who was hailed as the strongest man in the world at this time.  But if the two armies faced each other, Ma Chao, who had the Western Lion's elite cavalry, had great confidence that he could achieve a great victory at the hands of Guan Yu.  Although the Western Lion Elite Cavalry was formed not long ago, it has experienced dozens of battles, large and small, and has been able to achieve great victories, with no disadvantages whatsoever.

    Ma Chao asked himself whether he could resist Guan Yu. The key to victory or defeat would depend on which of the two armies were stronger and weaker!

    Ma Chao smiled coldly, as if he had seen the troops behind Guan Yu being massacred by his Western Lion Cavalry.

    Ma Chao suddenly pulled the reins, his horse lifted its front hooves, and flew away as soon as it hit the ground.  The Western Lion Jingqi immediately followed closely.

    Guan Yu Danfeng's eyes narrowed into a thin line, his murderous aura shimmering, and he suddenly shouted a command while he was rushing.

    "The Black Wind Cavalry's subordinates obey the order and shoot down!!!"

    With the sound of the order, the 1,800 Black Wind Riders all performed the same action, stepping hard on the saddle with both feet, leaning back, and loading their bows with arrows.  Aim at Ma Chao and Xishi Jingqi who are rushing up from the low place.

    When Ma Chao saw the troops behind Guan Yu, he suddenly took a big bow and wanted to shoot an arrow at the charging mounts.

    Ma Chao stared with a lion's eye, and suddenly thought of the elite cavalry, the Black Wind Cavalry, who was famous for its mounted shooting and shocked the world's princes.  And the Black Wind Cavalry is the army led by Guan Yu!

    Ma Chao had only heard a little bit about Black Wind Cavalry's 'riding and shooting', and what he heard was very miraculous.  But I have never seen it with my own eyes.  Therefore, Ma Chao never paid attention to it.

    At this time, Ma Chao felt an ominous premonition when he saw that Heifengqi's archery posture was precise, as if he could really shoot an arrow on a charging horse.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? !  !  !

    One thousand and eight hundred arrows burst out like thunder. They took advantage of the momentum of the horse and fell from high altitude. The speed of the arrows suddenly increased and they flew away.  Seeing the power of this wave of arrows, Ma Chao became frightened and immediately raised the brocade and silver lion tooth spear in his hand to block the incoming arrows.  Because Ma Chao and the Xishi Jingqi were charging so hard, it was difficult to dodge for a while. The arrows surged in, and there were very few who could block the incoming arrows in time.  Many Western Lion elite cavalrymen were shot by arrows and fell off their horses.  At the same time, many horses charging behind were knocked down. The horses that lost momentum were knocked back again. Suddenly there was chaos in the Western Lion Cavalry formation. They were trampled to death, and nearly 800 people fell downhill.

    After firing a wave of arrows, the Black Wind Cavalry soldiers quickly replaced their pitch-black spears. Guan Yu rushed down on his horse. Between the lightning and flint, he had already reached the panicked Ma Chao.

    The Qinglong Yanyue Sword glowed with a cold light, and when it slashed horizontally, a hurricane suddenly arose.  Ma Chao hurriedly held a gun to resist him. After the sword and gun collided, he quickly took it back.  Guan Yu shouted loudly, and started to kill with the eight sword styles of Spring and Autumn Period, attacking five swords in a row.  Ma Chao's heart pounded, and the threat of death immediately loomed over him. He quickly used the lion's roar to split the sky to fight.

    I saw Guan Yu swinging his sword for the first time and slashing at Ma Chao's neck.  Ma Chao fired his gun quickly and with incomparable accuracy, hitting the blade of the Qinglong Yanyue Sword.  Guan Yu held his sword and separated it. The two weapons were immediately staggered. The second sword came quickly and struck Ma Chao in the chest.  Ma Chao hurriedly swung his spear to block, and the Qinglong Yanyue Sword hit the body of the Jinyin Lion Tooth Spear.  Guan Yu's strength was extremely strong, and a sharp pain came from Ma Chao's tiger's mouth.  Just when Ma Chao's heart was pounding and he was breathing heavily, Guan Yu struck out with his third sword in an instant. He grabbed the knife and lifted it up, and a fierce spark hit the body of the Jinyin Lion Tooth Gun, which was about to cut off.  When Ma Chao held the five fingers of the gun handle in his right hand, Ma Chao was so frightened that he immediately let go of his right hand, almost dodging the edge of the Qinglong Yanyue Sword at the critical moment.  The Qinglong Yanyue Sword passed by, and the fourth sword came quickly and fiercely. Guan Yu gave a sharp shout and slashed at Ma Chao's head from high in the sky with the sword.  Guan Yu's moves are faster and more powerful than the last. These four swords are faster and more terrifying than the previous three!  Ma Chao saw that Guan Yu's momentum was not exhausted. When the fourth sword was struck, the evil force was still gathering in his body, as if he was preparing for the next more sharp move.  Ma Chao had a hunch that the next sword was Guan Yu's killer move in this round of offensive!

    Ma Chao¡¯s mind was spinning, and he thought about it at this moment. At that time, his body reacted immediately while gathering momentum., while rushing to avoid Guan Yu's fourth sword.

    Boom!  !  !

    When the blade fell, it was accompanied by a violent hurricane, which made Ma Chao's ears hurt. Ma Chao's body suddenly moved, and he avoided the blade of Qinglong Yanyue Sword extremely dangerously.

    At this moment, Guan Yu, as if he had expected it, swung his knife and slashed towards Ma Chao's left chest with a force that could cut the heaven and earth.  Ma Chao roared with all his strength, and he suddenly unleashed his momentum. The brocade and silver lion tooth spear suddenly stabbed out. The sound of the gunshot was like the roar of a lion, and it suddenly hit the blade of the Qinglong Yanyue Sword.

    A hurricane broke out, sparks flew up, and the huge and terrifying collision momentum caused the two men to lose their mounts and retreat.  The red rabbit horse moved a few meters and suddenly stopped.  Although Ma Chao's mount is also a rare horse with thousands of miles of miles, it can't be compared with the best horse in the world. Moreover, in the previous offensive, Guan Yu clearly had the upper hand.  Ma Chao's mount moved more than ten meters before he stopped in panic.

    Ma Chao¡¯s eyes were filled with a solemn and evil look, and the palm of his hand holding the gun was trembling.  On the contrary, Guan Yu stood on a high place on his horse, calm and calm, looking down at Ma Chao with cold eyes, the favored son of heaven who was blessed with extraordinary talents.

    It¡¯s too late, but in fact, this fierce battle took place between lightning and flint.  At this time, 1,800 Black Wind Riders swarmed in with mighty force.  The Western Lion Elite Riders behind Ma Chao were still in chaos under the impact of the arrows just now. Eighteen hundred Black Wind Riders rushed down like a black wave, sweeping up countless blood rains in the crowd of Western Lion Elite Riders.  , the main Western Lion Cavalry could not resist the fierce momentum of the Black Wind Cavalry, and was killed and retreated.  The number of casualties among the Western Lion Elite Cavalry continued to rise. Soldiers in the army were either stabbed and gored to death by Black Wind Cavalry officers, fell down the slope in panic, or were hit and knocked down by their comrades.

    The terrifying casualty rate of the Western Lion Elite Cavalry slowly weakened until the Black Wind Cavalry's momentum stopped.  After that, the two armies were in a melee. Of course, the battle was going on with the Black Wind Cavalry having the upper hand.

    The West Lion Elite Cavalry is Ma Chao¡¯s hard work. Watching the West Lion Elite Cavalry sergeants continue to fall in the fight with the Black Wind Cavalry, there are very few Black Wind Cavalry who are killed by the West Lion Elite Cavalry.  If this continues, I'm afraid that within two hours, all his elite troops will be wiped out!

    Ma Chao was anxious and angry. He wanted to turn around and rush to help in the battle, but he was tightly entangled by Guan Yu. On several occasions, he was distracted and put himself in danger.

    The West Lion Elite Cavalry is the ace unit of the Xiliang Army, like a pillar of existence. The defeat of the West Lion Elite Cavalry immediately caused the morale of the surrounding Xiliang soldiers to plummet.  The generals of the various civilian armies noticed this one after another and quickly ordered their soldiers to take advantage of the situation to attack.

    Under the power of Guan Yu and Black Wind Cavalry, Ma Chao and Xishi Jingqi failed to turn the tide at the east gate.  The battle situation became increasingly unfavorable for the Xiliang army at the east gate.

    At this moment, the south gate suddenly aroused a series of loud bangs, followed by screams in Qiang language, and a thundering shout of killing in Chinese.

    Ma Chao¡¯s expression changed drastically. He heard a message from those shrill Qiang screams.  The old Qiang general who temporarily commanded the Hu army was shot by a stray arrow in the melee and died on the spot!

    Ma Chao didn¡¯t need to think about it to know that Hu Jun at the south gate was in a fierce battle at this time.  Ma Chao was extremely panicked, and Cheng Gongying's previous advice suddenly came to his mind.

    Ma Chao was distracted this time and showed countless gaps.  Guan Yu's red phoenix eyes suddenly burst into murderous aura, and his huge and majestic body suddenly surged with endless power. Seeing his posture, he knew that Guan Yu was going to use a phase-killing move to kill Ma Chao with one move.

    The extremely terrifying power immediately shocked Ma Chao back to his senses.

    "Little horse, take your life!!!"

    Guan Yu shouted with great authority, his voice was like thunder, and he saw his sword rising.  Ma Chao was so frightened that he turned his horse's head and fled away.  Guan Yu chased after him and insulted him, but Ma Chao held back the overwhelming anger in his heart and yelled.

    ¡°Withdraw the troops!! Withdraw the troops!!!¡±

    With Ma Chao's roar, the Xiliang soldiers who had lost all intention to fight suddenly dispersed and fled to the rear.  Guan Yu saw that the morale of the Xiliang army was low and fled in panic. He also saw that the morale of his own soldiers was as high as a rainbow and their fighting spirit was overwhelming. Taking advantage of the situation, Guan Yu hurriedly ordered his soldiers to cover up and kill them.

    The Xiliang army at the east gate was defeated like a mountain. Every soldier in the army abandoned their helmets and armor and fled. They trampled on each other and died in countless numbers.  When Ma Chao fled, he quickly ordered several Qingqi to send orders for the remaining three soldiers and horses to retreat.  After receiving the order from Ma Dai and Ximen Pang at the north gate, they immediately obeyed the order and withdrew their troops.  As for the Hu army at the south gate, they had been killed long ago and were in chaos, with all the troops scrambling to escape.

    Hu Che'er, Zhang Liao, and Li You also led their troops to cover up the enemy at the north, west, and south gates. The Wen army had the upper hand and was overwhelming. Seeing that the Wen army's all-out counterattack was about to turn the Xiliang army upside down, leaving them in ruins.  Kong time.

    Suddenly, in the surrounding mountains, there were countless loud noises of wind and dust, and drums shook the heaven and earth.  There were shouts and orders from all sides.

      "Don't be alarmed, young master, General Zhenxi is coming with 20,000 elite troops for reinforcements!"

    "Han Jin, the governor of Jincheng, led 10,000 elite troops to come to the rescue!"

    "Liang Xing, the general of the Dian army, led eight thousand elite troops to help!!!"

    The continuous shouting of orders seemed to echo in the heaven and earth.  Hearing that so many reinforcements were coming, the morale of the Xiliang army suddenly rose. At this time, they heard a fast cavalry in the distance rushing around to deliver orders.

    "The military advisor has ordered us to retreat three miles away quickly. When the three reinforcements arrive, we can regroup and gather the power of the flood to attack Wenying again!!!"

    At this point, the Xiliang sergeants all panicked and retreated quickly.  The civilian soldiers who were chasing after them couldn't help but hesitate when they heard that so many enemy troops were coming. They didn't dare to pursue too closely, for fear of being destroyed by the counterattack in the near future.

    While the officers and soldiers of the Wen army were all hesitating and fearful, the ebb tide of the Xiliang army had gradually receded.

    At this time, Li You suddenly realized that this was a fraud and quickly yelled.

    "Hurry up and chase! Xiliang has been ravaged by war for nearly ten years. In addition, Ma Teng and Han Sui have been fighting every year. How can Xiliang still have so many troops! This must be a fraud!!!"

    Li You roared quickly, and Guan Yu, Zhang Liao, Hu Che'er and other generals reacted. However, when they went to pursue him again, the soldiers were frightened, so they could not start the pursuit quickly.  Seeing that the Xiliang army was fleeing farther and farther away, Guan Yu had no choice but to order his troops to withdraw and return to the stronghold.

    The tide of civilian troops gradually receded, and when the Xiliang army retreated to three miles, Cheng Gongying's order came again, ordering soldiers from all ministries to immediately withdraw to Pingxiang.  The soldiers in the army were suspicious, but Ma Chao, Pang De, Ma Dai and others knew clearly that there were no reinforcements at all.  Everyone also guessed that this must be Cheng Gongying's plan.

    Ma Chao, Pang De, and Ma Dai quickly ordered the soldiers to retreat back to the city. By the time the Xiliang army returned to Pingxiang City, the sky was already dark.

    The tragic sounds of countless wounded soldiers in the city spread everywhere, creating a strong and uneasy atmosphere in Pingxiang City.
