Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 2180 Even in the Great Yan Dynasty, Loyal and Talented Individuals Rise Up to Protect Their Young Master

"This madman!"

Wang Yanzhang had not expected Li Mu to be so fierce and ruthless, coming into the fight with the intention of dying together with him.

In a moment of haste, he suddenly pulled on the reins, and Red Hare and Rouge reared up!

The heavy blows of the club, accompanied by a whistling sound, swept past the horse's belly, causing the warhorse to neigh in alarm!
"Ding, Wang Yanzhang's 'Mercedes-Benz' skill activated."
"Galloping" is a basic skill for cavalry generals, which can be upgraded to "Swift Gallop" and "Flying Gallop" skills.

Effect 1: After this skill is activated, your own strength increases by 2, and when leading cavalry into battle, your command increases by 1.

Effect 2: When leading cavalry on a march, slightly increases the speed of the entire army.

Wang Yanzhang's "Mercedes-Benz" skill effect activates, increasing his attack power by 2, bringing his current attack power to 119.

After learning this lesson, Wang Yanzhang completely changed his marksmanship, prioritizing defense while attacking.

After all, he didn't want to die together with this madman!

The enemy is fighting desperately, but they have the upper hand. Why should they fight to the death?

However, with one willing to risk his life for the other, and the other burdened by his conscience, even with Bian Junwu by Wang Yanzhang's side, he was unable to capture Li Mu for a long time.

"Two cowards!"

"So afraid of dying? Why even go to the battlefield?"

"You might as well go home and hug a woman!" Li Mu mocked without restraint.

At the same time, after dodging Bian Junwu's shot, the large iron rod in his hand struck again with a heavy blow, like a falling meteorite.

At the same time as he unleashed this strike, the bloodlust on the long staff in his hand had reached its peak.

His time is running out!
While engaging in combat, they also tried their best to observe the situation on the battlefield!
He could sense that his soldiers wouldn't be able to hold out much longer. Once they collapsed, he wouldn't even have a chance to fight to the death.

Therefore, at this moment, he no longer cared about any expenditure of energy.

"Ding, the Powerful Priest skill has been activated."
"Divine Staff" is a top-tier skill for staff and club-type generals. It can be upgraded from the skills "Staff Courage" and "Staff Might". The effect of activating the skill varies depending on the person using it. It can be upgraded to the true god general skill "Staff God".

Effect 1: The stronger one's fighting spirit, the stronger one's combat power. Each time this effect is activated, one's own martial power increases by 3, and it can be activated up to three times in a row.

Effect 2: When facing an enemy, for each additional enemy member, the enemy's attack power decreases by 1, up to a maximum of -3.

Effect 3: When fighting against generals using staffs, if their base martial strength is lower than yours, suppress their martial strength by 1 to 2 points.

"Once the 'Power Priest's Divine Charm' skill is activated, the stronger his fighting spirit, the greater his combat power. Each activation increases his own attack power by 3, up to a maximum of three consecutive activations. This is the first activation; his attack power increases by 3, raising it to 120."

"Ding! The second effect of the Li Mu Shen Gun skill has been activated. When facing an enemy, the enemy's attack power will decrease by 1 for each additional enemy, up to a maximum of -3."

Wang Yanzhang's current combat strength is -1, and his combat strength has decreased to 118.

Border troops' martial prowess -1, bronze spear +4, current martial prowess reduced to 114.

The reason Li Mu was so unrestrained in mocking Wang Yanzhang at this moment was not to actually say a few words to him.

Limu is both intelligent and brave, with the demeanor of a great general; he wouldn't do so many pointless things.

So-called mockery is nothing more than an attempt to provoke the other party.

After all, if Wang Yanzhang continues with such a conservative fighting style, then no matter how hard Li Mu tries, it will be difficult for him to defeat his opponent! The opponent's martial arts level is what it is!

However, although Wang Yanzhang was young, he was not so easily provoked as to rush into action recklessly.

"open!"

He braced himself with both hands, channeling his strength upwards, and thrust his thick iron spear, as thick as a bowl, upwards to meet the descending long staff with a fierce upward thrust!

clang! ! !
A deafening, terrifying roar, far exceeding the clang of metal on metal, exploded out!

A visible shockwave suddenly spread outwards from the point of impact between the guns and clubs, stirring up dust and gravel from the ground!
Li Mu's strength was immense, and he used a staff, a weapon purely based on strength like a hammer, which allowed him to maximize his power advantage.

After such a direct confrontation, Wang Yanzhang felt a tightness in his chest and staggered back several steps, horse and all.

"General Bian, General Wang, Luo Cheng has arrived!"

"I, Liu, have come to assist the two generals in slaying this scoundrel!"

After seeing that Wang Yanzhang and Bian Junwu, who had joined forces, were still unable to defeat Li Mu, Liu Tianxiao and Luo Cheng stepped forward to help, having already dealt with their opponents.

"Ding! Luo Cheng's Silver Spear skill effect has been activated, increasing martial power by 6. Current martial power has increased to 118."

Luo Cheng's spear was faster than Bian Junwu's, like a silver lightning bolt, aiming straight for Li Mu's nape.

Quick-draw shooters like Luo Cheng or Yi Ke emphasize speed, ruthlessness, and accuracy, aiming every shot at the opponent's vital points.

His gun had no fancy features; the tip of the gun had a cold glint that was condensed to the extreme, so fast that it was beyond the reach of the eye!
A warning screamed in Li Mu's mind. His fighting instincts had reached a state of perfection. He twisted his waist sharply and narrowly dodged half an inch!

scoff!

Just then, the cold tip of the spear grazed almost the neck of Limu, the sharp blade easily tearing through the collar of the neck guard, leaving a trail of bright blood!
At the same time, Liu Tianxiao's golden spear also thrust in from another direction.

"Ding! Liu Tianxiao's Golden Spear skill effect has been activated, increasing his martial prowess by 8. His current martial prowess has increased to 120."

That shot was just a hair's breadth away from completely piercing his carotid artery.

Fortunately, the armor on his neck blocked the cut, leaving only a minor gash.

"You four little brats, keep going!" Li Mu roared, sweeping his long staff out in all directions, the sharp wind from the staff whistling as it swept towards the four men attacking him.

"Ding! The effect of the Powerful Priest's Divine Charm skill has been activated. The stronger the fighting spirit in one's heart, the stronger the combat power one can unleash. Each time this effect is activated, one's own martial power increases by 3, and it can be activated up to three times in a row. Currently, it is the second and third time it has been activated, with martial power increasing by 3. The martial power of the Powerful Priest has increased to 126."

"Ding! The second effect of the Li Mu Shen Gun skill has been activated. When facing an enemy, the enemy's attack power will decrease by 1 for each additional enemy, up to a maximum of -3."

Wang Yanzhang's current strength is -2, and his marksmanship is +9, bringing his total strength down to 125.

Border troops' military strength -2, electric gun +4, current military strength decreased to 116.

Luo Cheng's martial prowess decreased by 3, while his cold spear attack increased by 2, bringing his current martial prowess to 117.

Liu Tianxiao's combat strength decreased by 3, now down to 117. "You old scoundrel, don't be so presumptuous!" Wang Yanzhang immediately swung his spear to block.

Of the four, he was the strongest. He was also the most powerful of the four.

Facing a powerful warrior like Li Mu, if he were alone and his strength was inferior to his opponent's, he would not easily confront him head-on.

However, with three other people assisting him, only he could withstand the onslaught. Only in this way could he stop the enemy's offensive and give his three brothers a chance to strike and kill.

If none of the four of them were to confront him head-on, given Li Mu's sweeping attacks in all directions, none of them would be able to get close to the other side.

Of course, the four of them could also wait until the opponent's power was almost depleted before surrounding them and easily killing them.

After all, while Li Mu's wide-range attack method is the best way to deal with being surrounded, it does consume a lot of his energy.

However, if the four of them had to rely on attrition to kill one person, they'd be out of a job. That wouldn't sound good if word got out!
"clang!"

Wang Yanzhang used all his strength to parry the opponent's sweeping long staff, forcefully stopping it. Although his arms were numb from the impact, he still managed to block the attack.

"You old bastard, take this!"

Like a leech clinging to a bone, Luo Cheng's cunning and ruthless Five-Hook Divine Flying Spear, like a venomous snake emerging from its hole, silently pierced through Li Mu's right rear blind spot before Wang Yanzhang's spear thrust had even ended!

"Boy, get out of my way!"

Li Mu was shocked. He unleashed another burst of power from his long staff, temporarily deflecting Wang Yanzhang's iron spear.

Just as he was about to parry with his staff, a golden spear and a bronze spear came at the same time, blocking him for a moment.

"Ding, Luo Cheng's Cold Spear..."

puff!

The five-hooked spear tip pierced the weak point at the joint of the iron armor with unparalleled precision, and plunged deep into the armpit of Li Mu's thick right arm. The sharp barbs instantly tore apart the muscles on Li Mu's right arm, almost pulling off half of his arm.

"Ugh!" Li Mu let out a blood-curdling scream! His right arm was wracked with excruciating pain, and his strength was waning like a receding tide!

Long weapons pose the greatest risk of arm injury, and most users of long weapons wield them with both hands.

Heavy weapons pose an even greater risk of arm injuries.

Users of heavy weapons rely on strength; if the arm is injured, where does the strength come from?

"kill!"

Wang Yanzhang seized the opportunity, turning his heavy iron spear into a long staff, and swung it out with all his might.

Li Mu blocked with one hand, but unable to exert his full strength, he was forcefully struck in the chest by the long staff that was pressing down on him, and was knocked off his horse like a shooting star.

"Woo!"

A golden spear transformed into a golden lightning bolt that tore through the field of vision! The spear trembled violently due to the immense power and speed, emitting a buzzing, deathly tremor!

It was Liu Tianxiao; he made the move!

The instant Li Mu was sent flying and landed, he raised the golden spear in one hand and hurled it far away like a flying spear.

"Ho...ho..."

Large gushes of black blood mixed with fragments of internal organs gushed from Li Mu's mouth. He looked down at the tip of the spear, still dripping blood, protruding from his chest.

He tried to raise his still-mobile left arm, but his strength was rapidly waning like the receding tide.

Li Mu, the former number one warrior of the Great Yan Dynasty, was indeed quite strong, but he still couldn't withstand the combined attack from the Four Divine Spears.

The death of Li Mu was like the last straw that broke the camel's back. The Great Yan army, which was already on the verge of collapse, completely lost its last fighting spirit at this moment.

"General, news has come from General Shi that the prince of the Great Yan has escaped to Zhang Guiba's army!"

"General Shi is currently organizing his men to pursue them!" At the same time, the men sent by Shi Yongkai also came to report on the situation on his side.

"Don't worry, he can't escape!"

Guo Ziyi seemed confident about this and did not consider it a problem.

Guo Ziyi knew, of course, that Li Mu’s open and aboveboard appearance was not to die, but to attract his attention and create opportunities for others.

But he still came!

Naturally, it's because they have enough confidence in themselves!

Even if Xuanyuan Changyi really joined forces with the Great Yan army, his Flying Feather Legion consisted entirely of cavalry, and each of them was an elite cavalryman who had been through many battles. How could the Great Yan army shake them off so easily?

Furthermore, there's only one direction the other side can escape in!
Of the four directions, the west is their main base, the north was not long ago captured by his Flying Feather Legion, and although the plains to the south have not been completely captured, Li Jing's Legion has already surrounded Zhu Zhao. How many of their Han troops are there there?

If we were to flee, would we dare head in this direction?

Therefore, the direction the other party could escape to has always been only that one direction!
It was precisely for this reason that Guo Ziyi disregarded Li Mu's purpose in coming out and instead led his troops in a grand manner to annihilate Li Mu's forces.

Just as Guo Ziyi had predicted from the beginning, even if Xuanyuan Changyi successfully joined forces with Zhang Guiba, it would be extremely difficult for him to shake off the Flying Feather Legion, which consisted entirely of cavalry.

Not to mention that Shi Yongkai and his large force were constantly trailing behind Zhang Guiba, if Zhang Guiba dared to relax even for a moment, Shi Yongkai could catch up immediately.

Moreover, the scouts and cavalry of the Flying Feather Legion had already overtaken Zhang Guiba's group. No matter which path Zhang Guiba's group took, there were members of the Flying Feather Legion guarding the area, able to report their location to Shi Yongkai's group who were chasing behind them.

Those who can serve as scouts and rangers for the cavalry regiments need no doubt about their horsemanship or the quality of their warhorses.

Since they didn't need to fight at this point, these people simply didn't wear armor, maximizing their speed so they could directly pass in front of them and block the various major and minor roads ahead.

Zhang Guiba also realized that they couldn't shake off Shi Yongkai this way. Even if they left some men behind to cover the rear, it would be impossible to stop all 10,000 enemy cavalry here.

The enemy could easily send a portion of their forces to deal with their rearguard, but the rest of the main force could still continue their pursuit.

Therefore, it was at this moment that Zhang Guiba, the leader, and some generals proposed to divide the troops into multiple groups and flee in different directions in order to disrupt Shi Yongkai's pursuit and give Xuanyuan Changyi a chance.

Zhang Guiba wasn't worried that doing so would disperse their fighting strength. Their cavalry was already too small to fight head-on, so it didn't matter if they were scattered.
