While Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu were escorting more than 100,000 people from Fancheng and Nanyang to Xiangyang, Liu Bei still led his men to defend Fancheng.
It's not that he is unwilling to hand over Fancheng to Zhang Susu, but now that he retreats, Zhang Liao's Pingnan Army and Zhang Susu's Qingzhou Army will definitely take advantage of the victory to pursue them, and once they catch up with Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu, they will inevitably It will implicate the retreating people.
Therefore, Liu Bei, who had no other choice but to lead his few remaining troops, tried his best to buy time for Zhao Yun.
Unfortunately, the offensive of Zhang Liao's Pingnan Army was so fierce that in just half an hour, the east and north city gates had already fallen, especially when the 10,000 Qingzhou soldiers led by Zhang Jia also joined the battle. Later, Liu Bei's mere 20,000 troops could only fight and retreat.
¡°Damn it, there¡¯s no end to the killing!¡± Wei Yan, who was holding a machete and his face covered in blood, hacked an enemy soldier to death with one blow and then reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
To be honest, there was no need for Wei Yan to stay behind. After all, he was seriously injured by Chen Er a few days ago. If he hadn't been young and strong, he would have died a long time ago. Therefore, Liu Bei originally planned to call him and Zhao Yun, Zhang Xiu retreated together, but Wei Yan stayed. Firstly, Huang Zhong stayed in Fancheng. Secondly, he was stimulated by Zhang Liao and determined to do something great. Furthermore, his strong will His character also dictates that he will not run away at such a critical moment.
And just as Wei Yanchang was wiping sweat from his hands, several enemy soldiers rushed up. Shocked, Wei Yan subconsciously raised the weapon in his hand.
Suddenly. With a whooshing sound, an extremely powerful wave of air passed by Wei Yan and hit the enemy soldiers hard. What is unbelievable is that the wave of air actually knocked those soldiers back more than ten feet. .
"Huh?" Wei Yan was stunned, and looked back, only to see Huang Zhong looking over here with his bow raised.
"ZhongUncle Zhong?"
As if he noticed something, Wei Yan ran to Huang Zhong's side, and Huang Zhong stood back to back to defend against the enemy, and said with a smile. "Uncle Zhong, your archery skills are not bad!"
"Huh!" Glancing at the teasing smile on Wei Yan's face, Huang Zhong snorted lightly and raised his bow with his left hand. He raised his right hand and saw several streaks of black violent energy condensing on his palm. Under Wei Yan's dumbfounded expression, the violent energy condensed into the shape of an arrow at an extremely fast speed, and Huang Zhong then put it on the bowstring. .
"Hoo!" With a sound that broke through the air, Huang Zhong loosened his bow string, and saw the arrow condensed with violent energy shooting out at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye, kicking up a cloud of dust during the flight. And the moment it hit the enemy, the whole thing exploded. The violent air wave immediately knocked the bodies of more than a dozen enemy soldiers to the ground, and some of them even had their whole bodies torn apart by the air wave, which was horrific.
"Soso awesome" Wei Yan's eyes widened, and he was about to speak when he saw Huang Zhong beside him, holding an iron bow, turned around, put the bowstring around the neck of an enemy soldier, and pulled hard , but saw a bunch of blood burst out, and his head fell to the ground with a grunt.
And this time. A large number of enemy soldiers swarmed up again, but Huang Zhong touched the quiver on his waist with his right hand and took out five arrows and put them on the bow string. However, when he heard the sound of the string, the five arrows hit five people respectively. The heart of an enemy soldier. What's more, the remaining potential is not small. Each arrow actually penetrated several bodies before stopping.
"Chang Wen, don't be careless!" Seeing Wei Yan looking at him dumbfounded, Huang Zhong shouted loudly.
"Huh? Oh!" When Huang Zhong shouted, Wei Yan finally came to his senses and was on guard with the machete in his hand. However, he found that the enemy soldiers who rushed forward were killed by Huang Zhong one by one. There was no way for him to show off. leeway?
"Thieves, don't be so bold!" An enemy general came forward on horseback. Huang Zhong saw it from the corner of his eye. He took out an arrow from his quiver with his right hand and flicked it. Immediately, he heard a scream, and the enemy general The military general fell from his horse and fell to the ground and died.
"Whatwhat's going on?"
The enemy soldiers' offensive slowed down, and many soldiers looked at Huang Zhong in horror with wide eyes.
"I can't see this guy's arrow"
can not see?
Perhaps noticing the whispers of the enemy soldiers, Wei Yan looked blankly at Huang Zhong beside him. He was shocked to find that the arrows shot by Huang Zhong suddenly disappeared shortly after leaving the bowstring. The moment after disappearing, he appeared on the enemy soldiers.
Vaguely, Wei Yan noticed that behind Huang Zhong, there was a vague shadow of a tiger-shaped monster. This monster tiger had yellow fur with many white spots on it, sharp claws, and a tail. It was like a scorpion's hook, shining with a chilling light.
This is Uncle Zhong¡¯s martial artsSoul?
For a moment, Wei Yan was angry and ashamed. He finally understood that the old man in front of him, who seemed to be a heavy drinker and lived his daily life, was actually not a simple person. No wonder he couldn't beat him even after he learned to be violent
"Damn old man, how many things are you hiding from me?"
Huang Zhong, who was killing the enemy, unexpectedly heard a sentence in his ear. He turned his head inexplicably and saw Wei Yan looking at him with a blushing face. After thinking about it for a moment, he guessed what Wei Yan was thinking.
This kid is probably blaming himself for not teaching him martial arts even though he has such strength
Thinking of this, Huang Zhong laughed and cursed in a low voice, "You brat, do you think you can talk like that? No matter how big or small" Just as he was speaking, his expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly raised his right hand and reached towards Wei Yan's ear.
Wei Yan thought Huang Zhong was angry and wanted to teach him a lesson, so he subconsciously shrank his head. When he secretly looked up again, he saw a dagger with a cold light shining in Huang Zhong's right hand.
what happened?
For a moment, Wei Yan was unable to turn around.
While Wei Yan looked puzzled, Huang Zhong shouted into the distance with a cold face, "Your Excellency, a mighty martial god, is so disrespectful. Not only does he attack the weak, but he also hurts people with secret arrows. It's really disgusting! "As he spoke, he swung his right hand downwards, and there was a crack, and the sharp dagger immediately penetrated the bluestone floor tiles under his feet.
It turned out that Uncle Zhong saved me?
Only then did Wei Yan react. He thought with some peace of mind: That's right. Although this old man has a bad temper, he is not so angry as to say anything to the old man
Thinking of this, Wei Yan raised his head and looked at the person who sneaked up on him, and cursed loudly, "Which turtle grandson attacked your grandpa?" As he said this, he was stunned because he saw the open jaw that he had met a few days ago. As his body slowly emerged from the shadow, Wei Yan curled his lips. He said disdainfully, "It turns out it's you, you idiot!"
Huang Zhong couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart, but Zhang Jia opposite him had a gloomy look on his face, looking at Wei Yan and said coldly. "Boy, you didn't die a few days ago? You're really lucky" It was obvious that Zhang Jia had a very bad impression of Wei Yan.
Hearing Zhang Jia's words, Wei Yan couldn't help but think of Zhang Liao and Chen Er. When he thought that he, who was originally full of confidence, fell into the hands of the two of them, Wei Yan felt quite depressed and immediately said sarcastically, "I don't care about your business whether I die or not. , are you so anxious to show me your mourning?!"
"You're looking for death!" Seeing Wei Yan taking advantage of him again, he opened his jaw and became furious. Turning his right hand, he took out a dagger from his waist.
"Chang Wen, step back!" Huang Zhong immediately stopped Wei Yan behind him, because he knew very well that the open jaw in front of him was a warrior-level warrior. With Wei Yan's strength, which could not even defeat ten thousand people, he could only go up. It's just a matter of death.
"Oh, oh" Seeing Huang Zhong telling him to step back with a serious face, Wei Yan obediently took a few steps back. After all, he was no longer the most ignorant person in the world. He also knew that the open jaw in front of him was an opponent he could not deal with.
"Are you going to stand up for this kid? - I didn't kill you, old guy, last time. How dare you appear in front of this general?" Perhaps he noticed Huang Zhong's actions, and the anger on his open-jawed face receded slightly. Quite a bit, given that he suffered a loss at the hands of Huang Zhong a few days ago. This time, he didn't dare to be careless again.
Huang Zhong¡¯s eyes narrowed slightly. He sneered and said, "Huang failed last time because he didn't have the weapon at his disposal. Boy, don't take advantage of me and act like a good boy!"
"A weapon at hand?" Zhang Jia was stunned. Only then did he notice that Huang Zhong was holding an iron bow in his hand at this moment, and the bowstring on the iron bow was as thick as a thumb, which made him even more excited. He was slightly shocked.
"So you are a bow general!" There was a hint of wariness in Zhang Jia's eyes, because according to his visual inspection, the iron bow was at least three stones strong.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????This is such a strong arm strength, he can¡¯t even open his jaw
???????????????? But after thinking about it, Zhang Jia¡¯s face didn¡¯t show anything strange at all. He looked at Huang Zhong and sneered, ¡°Do you think you can deal with Zhang with a bow and arrow?¡±
No wonder he is so conceited. After all, his jaw-opening spirit has the mobility to keep up with Greedy Wolf. In the world, Xia Houyuan and Zhang Liao are probably his only natural enemies. Apart from that, even Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei are his natural enemies. Waiting for the Martial God, I am afraid it will be difficult to take advantage of him.
"Deal?" Huang Zhong sneered when he heard this and said lightly, "Ah, that's what Huang thinks!"
"" Suddenly, he opened his jaw and narrowed his eyes. After a short pause, he suddenly opened them again. At the same time, his whole body was like an arrowHe rushed towards Huang Zhong.
At this time, Huang Zhong on the opposite side had already raised the iron bow in his hand.
"Huh!" Seeing this, he opened his mouth and sneered. After all, he was not afraid of anyone's arrows except Xia Houyuan's.
However, the next second, he suddenly stopped with a change of expression, because at some point, an arrow had been inserted into the tassel of his helmet.
How can it be?
He took off the helmet on his head, glanced at the arrow stuck on the tassel of the helmet, and then glanced at Huang Zhong who was five or six feet away. He opened his jaw and frowned, feeling extremely shocked.
Firstly, he was amazed at Huang Zhong¡¯s precision and superb archery skills, and secondly, he was shocked that the arrow was so invisible that even he didn¡¯t notice the arrow¡¯s flight path.
Did you not notice it, or did you not notice it at all?
Opening his jaw and frowning deeply, he vaguely recalled that when the bowstring sounded, the arrow had already hit the tassel of his helmet, as if there was no flight at all.
Vaguely, Zhang Jia recalled his fight with Huang Zhong in Fancheng. That time, Huang Zhong was also like this, hurting himself without knowing it
Is this the ability of that guy¡¯s martial spirit? He glanced at the shadow of the scorpion tiger roaring lowly on Huang Zhong. He opened his jaw as he vaguely thought of something. My heart skipped a beat.
I have to say that Zhang Jia guessed well. Huang Zhong's martial spirit Scorpion Tiger [Chenghuang] is a very special martial spirit like Xu Chu's martial spirit with one martial spirit and multiple abilities. However, compared to Xu Chu's one martial spirit with three abilities , Huang Zhong is slightly inferior, his martial spirit [Chenghuang] only has two abilities.
One ability is that it embodies the law and must hit the target. As long as it is the target that Huang Zhong sees, when he attacks, there will be no hindrance in the middle. Until the weapon touches the opponent's body, if the opponent uses a weapon to resist, the weapon in Huang Zhong's hand will directly ignore the opponent's weapon. This is also the case when Zhang Jaw clearly raised his sword to guard against it. The reason why he still got hit.
As for the second type, it is even more remarkable. It is an ability that is similar to Zhao Yun¡¯s martial spirit [Teng She]. The difference is that Zhao Yun slows down time, while Huang Zhong speeds up time. In addition, Zhao Yun¡¯s ability It is reflected in the entire world. In other words, during the period when he is using his ability, the time of the entire world except him will be slowed down. Although it was only for a moment, Huang Zhong only acted on inanimate objects.
Generally speaking, the greatest advantage of Huang Zhong's ability is reflected in his archery, because he can make the arrow he shoots to hit the target by accelerating the passage of time the moment it leaves the bow.
This ability is simply the best restraint for warriors with extraordinary intuitive perception such as Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Zhang Jia, and Chen Ran, because before their intuition can feel the arrow shot by Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong's arrow Yabi had already shot them.
have to say. Huang Zhong's martial spirit was a level higher than Cao Xing's original martial spirit.
"It's a pity, it's just a little bit worse!" Wei Yan, who thought it was Huang Zhong who missed the shot, rubbed his hands with regret.
How could he know that it was Huang Zhong who was warning Zhang Jia? After all, warriors like Huang Zhong, Sun Jian, Chen Ran, and Zhang Liao valued martial ethics. They would reveal some of their martial soul's abilities in advance when fighting with their opponents, firstly to persuade the opponent to retreat in the face of difficulties. Secondly, it prevents the other party from dying without knowing anything.
Although, this seems a bit silly.
"Interesting" He opened his jaw and licked his lips, his eyes igniting the fighting spirit of a warrior.
But at this moment, there was a sound of gold ringing in Liu Bei's army.
Finally, under the strong attack of Zhang Liao's Pingnan Army and Zhang Jiao's Qingzhou Army, Liu Bei, who was in an absolutely weak numerical position, finally ordered Jin Jin to retreat.
Glancing in the direction where the sound of ringing gold came from, Huang Zhong frowned slightly. After taking a deep look at his open jaw, he lowered his voice and said, "Wen Chang, let's go!"
"Huh?" Wei Yan was still waiting to see Huang Zhong and Zhang Jia fight. Wei Yan was stunned. Before he could react, Huang Zhong grabbed his arm and pulled him away.
Of course, Huang Zhong did not forget to be on guard when retreating. After all, he already knew a little bit about Zhang Jia¡¯s martial soul abilities. If Zhang Jia wanted to pursue him, it would be a very troublesome situation.
But unexpectedly, Zhang Jia had no intention of pursuing them. After silently glancing at the arrow on the helmet in his hand, he actually watched Huang Zhong and Wei Yan walk away in front of his eyes.
Perhaps, this jaw is not unsophisticated, but his concept of life is slightly different from that of Sun Jian, Huang Zhong and others. And this point has been reflected from the time when he silently watched the seriously injured Liu Pi climb to Chen Liu It can be seen from the fact that he asked for help. If he was really a cold-hearted person, how could he be so cold-hearted in the end?At the cost of injuring his right hand, he broke the city gate of Chenliu City, allowing the defenders in the city to hear the noise and come out to inspect, and discovered that Liu Pi had written a bloody letter asking for help on the ground?
"Perhaps this is the so-called sympathy. After all, people are not like grass and trees, and they can be ruthless. It's just that some people have different views on some things.
"Bang bang bang"
With the sound of gongs and drums, Liu Bei's army retreated across the board and out of Fancheng. The remaining troops fought and fled, one after another retreating towards the Yangtze River.
To be honest, Zhang Liao had no intention of chasing, and Zhang Zha had no intention of chasing since Huang Zhong had just shown mercy to him. However, Gao Lan and one of the five generals of the Qingzhou Army, Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo, and Sun Jian, still fought hard. He chased Liu Bei.
After all, Zhang Susu has issued an order, vowing to keep Liu Bei in Fancheng!
"Withdraw! Withdraw!"
Seeing that his more than 30,000 soldiers now only have less than 10,000 left, Liu Bei's heart bleeds.
But he had no choice. In order to buy time for Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu who were escorting the people to Xiangyang, Liu Bei had no choice but to sacrifice his generals.
However. When watching the soldiers who followed him loyally die under the enemy's sword. Even Liu Bei couldn't help but feel a little confused, not knowing whether what he did was right or wrong.
After all, although he protected many people, he sacrificed those soldiers who were loyal to him, even if he never gave up on them until the last moment
"Huang Zhong and Wei Yan obey your orders and wait for the injured to go first You wait to cross the bridge and cross the river first! - Yide, stay behind with me!"
"Yes. Big brother!" Zhang Fei nodded with a dusty look on his face.
"Liu Shijun, why don't General Zhang and I stay together" Seeing that Liu Bei wanted to stay behind personally, Huang Zhong was moved and said subconsciously.
I saw Liu Bei wave his hand. He shouted without any doubt, "Stop talking anymore. You can take all the gentlemen to cross the bridge and cross the river first, and then go to Xiangyang immediately to join General Zhao Yun and tell him to be prepared to meet the enemy!"
"Thisis!" Seeing that Liu Bei had made up his mind, Huang Zhong could only nod, get on his horse, and leave immediately with Wei Yan and others, along with Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu and other civil servants.
As a result, more than half of the troops of less than 10,000 people were divided. As a result, the only people left here were Liu Bei, Zhang Fei and less than three or four thousand soldiers.
"QingQingzhou soldiers are catching up!"
Not long after, I don¡¯t know who shouted first. Liu Bei looked up and saw Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian, Gao Lan and others leading the army.
Seeing this, Liu Bei secretly complained in his heart.
Although he had long heard from Chen Gong that the three deceased martial gods, Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo, and Sun Jian, were resurrected from the dead by Zhang Susu's magic, he had never seen it with his own eyes. He only thought it was hearsay until he saw it today.
And Zhang Fei beside him also had an unlucky look on his face.
In fact, just now, he has already fought against Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo, and Sun Jian. It can only be said that these three people are indeed the martial gods who were once famous all over the world. Even Zhang Fei is their opponent.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡±¡±¡±¡±¡±¡±¡± During the day, his strength is greatly reduced, at best it is only 30 to 40% of its usual strength. But even so, Sun Jian still stabbed Zhang Fei
It has to be said that for Zhang Fei, who specializes in rigid bodies, Sun Jian's martial spirit is simply his nemesis. You must know that except for Sun Jian, Zhang Fei has never used generals like Chen Wei and Zhang Jia who specialize in cutting iron. Half afraid.
¡°Perhaps it is precisely because Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo, and Sun Jian were unable to exert their due strength during the day that Liu Bei and Zhang Fei dared to stay behind, but the key is that there were more than just three of them on the opposite side!
Just as Liu Bei had thought, thousands of his soldiers were defeated and completely engulfed by the enemy in just one encounter.
"Ah!"
With a roar, Zhang Fei charged forward with his eight-foot-long snake spear, blocking Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo, and Sun Jian alone.
"You dare to come here, you fool?!" Lu Bu sneered, holding Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand, and came forward. The two fought for more than ten rounds.
Although Lu Bu is a corpse and his strength is greatly reduced during the day, his real strength is higher than Zhang Fei, and he has immortality. Therefore, even Zhang Fei can't do anything to Lu Bu.
"Hahaha, is your name Zhang Fei? I can't believe that within just a few years after Dong's death, a fierce general like you would appear in the world!" After laughing three times, Dong Zhuo also caught up with the dragon's biting golden sword.
Although he was only thinking about his beloved granddaughter at first, it was only then that Zhang SusuIn exchange for the conditions, he returned to Yangshi to serve for him, but in the successive battles, Dong Zhuo gradually regained the endless fighting spirit he had when he was in Xiliang.
"It's not right to bully the minority with the crowd, but now I'm sorry!" After apologizing, Sun Jian also joined the battle.
Just like Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian was just worried about his children at first. He responded to Zhang Susu's call and served as a condition for him. After all, he still wanted to see his wife and children in person and say his final farewell to them in person. , but as the days of resurrection after death passed day by day, they gradually became reluctant to part with this hard-won second life.
After all, the God of War is still a human being. He is as strong as Dong Zhuo and Sun Jian. He doesn¡¯t really care about his own life. Also, who is willing to die if he can live?
Perhaps this is the reason why Zhang Susu did not force any harsh conditions on them in the first place. After all, with her intelligence, she has already seen through the so-called human nature, just like she doesn't need to control Guo Jia to make him use herself. Same.
Those who seek profit, lure them with benefits; those who seek righteousness, move them with emotion. This is the best way to control people's hearts. It has to be said that Zhang Susu is really outstanding in this aspect, but it is a pity that her stubbornness and paranoia are not the best way to control people's hearts. Ruined the happiness that originally belonged to her
"The Prime Minister has an order to arrest Liu Bei, life or death!"
"Whoever captures Liu Bei will be rewarded with thousands of gold coins and ten thousand households!"
Yu Jin and Li Dian shouted out Zhang Susu's previous orders one after another. It must be said that the generous reward not only made their soldiers red-eyed, but even they themselves were quite excited.
As the saying goes, a man should be powerful and famous when he is alive. It is just because of this that a large number of ambitious men join the battlefield. Now, as long as Liu Bei is caught, he can get everything he wants. Who would not be tempted?
For a time, tens of thousands of soldiers rushed towards Liu Bei crazily, so that Liu Bei's army was retreating steadily.
"Brother!" Seeing Liu Bei's critical situation, Zhang Fei felt anxious, but he was trapped in the battle with Lu Bu and others and could not help him.
"Is this the end of my life as Liu Bei?"
Being surrounded by the rebels, Liu Bei, who was covered in blood, looked up at the sky and sighed in frustration.
As he spoke, he shook his head, and after looking at the crazy-looking enemy soldiers around him, he smiled bitterly and said, "Rather than being held prisoner, it's better to end it here!"
As he said that, he was about to raise his sword and wipe it on his neck. Suddenly, a whirlwind blew from the sky, blowing everyone present and unable to open their eyes. When the wind calmed down a little, Liu Bei was shocked to find that he didn't know what time it was before his eyes. There was actually a Confucian scholar wearing a blue Confucian shirt, reaching out to press the sword in his hand.
"A person's life, old age, illness and death are all under the control of the Master. Now, it's not the time for you to die! - Get out of here!"
"Huh?" Liu Bei was stunned and didn't know what he was talking about.
At the same time, Zhang Susu, who was waiting for the battle report in Zhang Liao's camp, suddenly opened his eyes, his face changed slightly, he flicked his sleeves, and disappeared into the camp. To be continued. .
