Three Kingdoms: Wolong's brother-in-law, tricking Liu Bei into seizing Jingzhou

Cao Pi couldn't help but think to himself:

Now Meng Huo placed all his hopes on the Rattan Armor Army, hoping that they could avenge his past humiliation and restore his glory.

If I rashly try to persuade him and pour cold water on him at this time, Meng Huo will not only not listen to me, but will become furious and regard me as an enemy and speak rudely to him.

They might even fall out on the spot.

Doing so would not only fail to prevent this potentially disastrous battle, but would also put oneself in an even more embarrassing situation.

Thinking of this, he could only sigh inwardly and wisely chose to shut his mouth.

"Forget it, forget it. I just hope that the so-called invulnerable troops can really defeat the Han army..."

Cao Pi prayed silently in his heart, his eyes full of helplessness and expectation.

at this time.

Wutugu had already led the rattan armor army, rushing out of the city gate like a surging tide, and with murderous momentum, they rushed towards the Han army camp in a mighty manner.

The rattan armor soldiers were dressed in strange rattan armor, which shone with a unique luster in the sun, just like warriors dressed in black iron.

On the winding jungle road north of Zhucheng, the Han army was marching towards Zhucheng along this secluded path.

In the Han army formation, Zhang Liao sat upright on his warhorse, his face filled with irrepressible excitement.

He knew that this expedition was of great significance, and it was a great opportunity for him to show his abilities.

He frowned slightly, and kept thinking about what means he should use to cleverly lure the Southern Barbarian Army out of the city.

Just as Zhang Liao was immersed in his thoughts, a scout came running over in a hurry, panting and reporting:
There were southern barbarians blocking the road ahead.

When Zhang Liao heard this, he was overjoyed.

The southern barbarians were so stupid that they couldn't wait to come out and die, without him having to go to great lengths to lure them.

This is exactly what I wanted!"

Zhang Liao acted decisively and loudly ordered the entire army to speed up their advance.

The Han army soldiers moved upon hearing the order, their steps becoming increasingly rapid, like a black torrent, rushing forward.

After a while.

On the road ahead, battle flags were like a forest, covering the sky and the sun.

The eight thousand barbarian soldiers were on full alert. They were neatly lined up in the middle of the road, like an indestructible wall of steel, blocking the road completely.

Zhang Liao saw this and sneered:
"Meng Huo must be a fool. After gathering the defeated soldiers, he thought he was the boss. How dare he block the way here?"

"How dare you look down on me, Zhang Liao? Today, I will let you see how powerful I am!"

Zhang Liao's face darkened, he snorted coldly, and shouted loudly:

"All camps, listen up! Form a battle formation to meet the enemy!"

Following his order, the Han army soldiers acted quickly.

They changed their formations skillfully and soon formed an attacking square.

Although Zhang Liao was full of confidence, he did not become arrogant or underestimate the enemy.

While forming the formation, he carefully observed the situation of the barbarian army in front of him.

Soon, he keenly noticed that the barbarian soldiers in front of him seemed a little different.

South China has always been a poor place, and most soldiers were unable to equip themselves with iron armor. They could usually only wear leather armor to fight the enemy.

The sheen of the armor worn by the legion before him was very different from that of leather armor.

Zhang Liao looked closely and was shocked:
"Could it be that these barbarians are wearing rattan armor?"

A look of doubt flashed across his face, and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart.

Although the barbarians are poor, they are not stupid.

They couldn't possibly not know that the defensive power of rattan was far inferior to that of cowhide.

Knowing this, he still went into battle wearing rattan armor. Isn't that courting death?
While Zhang Liao was full of doubts, Wutugu had already seen the Han army in the enemy's formation.

A hint of disdain flashed across his eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a scornful smile.

In his opinion, the Han army was just a group of vulnerable rabble, while his rattan armor army was invulnerable and indestructible. With just one charge, they could break through the Han army in front of them. "Let the King of Nanzhong see the strength of our Wugo Kingdom!"

Thinking of this, his face darkened and he shouted:

"The whole army obeys the order and attacks!"

"Kill all the dogs that stand in our way!"

Following his order, the war drums sounded like thunder, and the rattan armor army roared and broke through the formation like a tiger descending from the mountain.

They marched in neat steps, shouting thunderous slogans, and rushed towards the Han army.

The momentum seemed to crush the entire world.

The barbarian army took the first step. This sudden change woke Zhang Liao from his thoughts.

He frowned and thought to himself:

"These barbarians have no advantage in numbers, nor in armor. They are completely at a disadvantage. But why don't they hold their ground and instead take the initiative to attack?
Are they crazy?
Or are they just being fearless?

If I am fearless, then wouldn’t I be…”

For a moment, Zhang Liao hesitated.

At this moment, the rattan armor army in front had approached to within eighty steps.

This distance is already within the range of the Han army's bows and crossbows.

Zhang Liao took a deep breath and suppressed the thoughts churning in his mind, knowing that he could no longer hesitate.

He suddenly raised the long sword in his hand and shouted loudly:
"Shoot the arrows and kill the thieves!"

Following his order, the Han army archers quickly bent their bows and drew their arrows, and the strong bows were pulled like full moons.

The arrow is on the string, ready to be shot at any moment.

There was a sound of "whoosh", and sharp arrows soared into the air like locusts and attacked the enemy.

This is the most elite bow and crossbow of the Han army, with incredible power.

In an instant, arrows rained down and hit the rattan armor army.

But a miracle happened at this moment.

Zhang Liao's eyes were as big as copper bells, and he looked at the enemy in disbelief.

I saw that the sharp arrows nailed on the rattan armor were all bounced back!
“This is unreasonable~~”

"Can the protective power of a mere vine be so strong?"

Zhang Liao muttered to himself, his eyes full of astonishment and shock.

He never imagined that this seemingly simple rattan armor could have such powerful protective power.

The Han soldiers also shouted loudly, with looks of fear on their faces.

They had never seen such a strange scene, and fear spread like a tide.

The morale of the Han army was suddenly in chaos.

The Han army's formation also began to show signs of loosening.

now.

A sarcastic sneer appeared on Wu Tu Gu's lips.

He had expected the Han army to panic.

You know, this was the first time in his life that his special forces fought against enemies other than the Southern Barbarians.

Before this, the Han people had no idea that there existed such an invulnerable army.

So, when they saw this indestructible armor, they were naturally stunned.

Thinking of this, Wutugu waved the long sword in his hand and shouted:
"All troops, listen up! Move forward and crush all the Han dogs to death!"

The rattan armor soldiers were greatly encouraged when they heard the orders and shouted slogans that shook the sky.

The momentum is like a tidal wave, unstoppable! (End of this chapter)
