Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 173 If you dare to attack, you will be defeated! (Thanks to Wanjie Ferryman for his two monthly tickets~)
Huang Zhong's eyes were fixed on Ma Zhong, his body was like the most sophisticated machine, he drew the bow and drew the arrow in one go!
What Huang Zhong didn't expect was that Ma Zhong, who had been staring at them, also took out his bow and arrow, ready to go!
In history, Ma Zhong not only captured Guan Yu and Guan Ping, father and son, in the later period.

In the novel, an arrow hit Huang Zhong's shoulder socket, causing him to die from serious injuries.

From this we can see that Ma Zhong’s archery skills are also very superb!
However, in Huang Zhong's opinion, this guy was just showing off his skills in front of an expert.

Compete in archery in front of him?
Apart from his lord Lu Bu, he didn't think there was anyone in the world who could beat him in archery!
Huang Zhong twisted the bowstring, pinched the arrow feathers with his index finger and middle finger, and pulled back hard!
The Wanshi bow, which was said to require "ten thousand stones of strength" to pull, was easily pulled to the full moon by him.

Ma Zhong on the other side also drew his bow and shot an arrow almost at the same time as Huang Zhong!
The two arrows flew through the air at lightning speed and collided rapidly!
Huang Zhong's heart tightened unconsciously as he recalled the last time when Lu Bu's arrow deflected his own arrow.

Fortunately, this time the opponent is far from qualified to be compared with our lord.

The moment the two arrows collided, Ma Zhong's arrow was instantly shot down.

However, Huang Zhong's arrow deviated from its original trajectory, leaving a bloody mark on the edge of Ma Zhong's face and failed to cause him fatal injury!
Feeling the burning pain on his face, Ma Zhong's face changed in shock. Only then did he realize that the old general's archery skills were not something he could match.

He, who had just held his head high, immediately shrank his neck and stepped back.

"Chase!"

When Sun Ce saw that Ma Zhong wanted to retreat, he immediately led the cavalry behind him to pursue him.

However, under Ma Zhong's command, the surrounding 4,000 soldiers blocked the 600 cavalrymen like a human wall.

Even though Sun Ce and Huang Zhong fought hard, they still couldn't break through the increasingly thick human wall.

On the contrary, the number of cavalry on their side is decreasing at a rate visible to the naked eye!

"No! If we continue like this, we will be wiped out..."

Huang Zhong began to have the idea of ​​retreating.

Although he was the main general, he was well aware of how much Lu Bu valued his subordinates, especially the little tyrant of Jiangdong.

It doesn't matter if more soldiers die, but Sun Ce and Zhou Tai must not be allowed to die here.

They are still young and have more potential than me...

Thinking of this, Huang Zhong yelled at Sun Ce:

"Sun Bofu! Quickly fight your way out of this place with Zhou Tai. I will cover your retreat!"

Sun Ce immediately roared:
"General, are you kidding me? If you want to leave, let's leave together. I am the Little Overlord of Jiangdong, and it is not your turn as an old man to cover our retreat!"

As he spoke, Sun Ce pierced the chest of an enemy soldier with the Overlord Spear in his hand, lifted him up high, and swung him forward fiercely, knocking down a group of enemy soldiers!
"Old General, Youping, hurry up and follow us!"

Sun Ce took the lead and was the first to break out from the wall of fallen people.

Upon seeing this, Huang Zhong and Zhou Tai led the remaining 400-odd cavalrymen to charge out of the encirclement.

But the enemy still had more than 3,500 men.

Even if they failed to defeat the enemy as agreed, they had to ensure that as many people as possible on their side retreated!

As long as we can withdraw, at most we will be punished, which is better than losing our life!
However, under Ma Zhong's command, the surrounding infantry quickly blocked their retreat.

At this moment, Sun Ce and his men were exhausted.

The remaining four hundred cavalrymen were almost all the five hundred cavalrymen led by Huang Zhong.

The 500 cavalry led by Sun Ce and Zhou Tai were almost wiped out.

The remaining cavalry were almost all wearing armor without any clothes.

The edges of the armor rubbed their skin, leaving bloody marks, which looked horrifying!
At this moment, this group of people had no way to break out, and even Sun Ce and Huang Zhong had countless scars on their bodies.

And the number of gun barrels hanging on Zhou Tai's body increased from two to six!
Even the fierce generals Huang Zhong and Sun Ce showed despair in their eyes.

If no reinforcements arrived at this time, they would most likely be buried here... Seeing his own soldiers falling down one by one around him, Sun Ce was too tired to lift the Overlord Spear.

Zhou Tai was also already blood-thirsty, and two long spears were inserted behind him.

The Red Blood Sword in Huang Zhong's hand was not only blood-red on the blade, but the entire handle was soaked in blood.

I don't know if it's the enemy's blood or his own blood...

The veteran's physical exhaustion is even more obvious than that of Sun Ce and Zhou Tai!

It seemed that three brave generals were about to die here.

At this moment, on a high slope not far away, a strong man was half-crouching on the ground, holding an ancient ingot knife in his hand, wearing a red turban hat and thick scale armor.

The rough face exudes an imposing heroic spirit!

Behind him, there were two hundred strong men, holding various weapons in their hands, and they all looked like they were good at fighting!
The leader had been observing the battle below for a long time.

I thought that the one thousand cavalrymen would be quickly defeated by the five thousand people on the other side.

Unexpectedly, after fighting for a long time, more than 800 of the 1,000 cavalrymen died, and nearly 2,000 of the 5,000 soldiers died!

With their fighting power greatly weakened, Lu Bu's men were still able to fight to this extent...

If their fighting capacity had not been weakened by crossing the river, I'm afraid that these five thousand soldiers would have been killed and defeated by now!

A hint of admiration appeared in the man's eyes.

He stood up slowly, his eyes seemed to show some kind of decision, and he grabbed the chain at the bottom of the ancient ingot knife and struggled hard!
"Brothers, do you know which side to help? Breaking the Army Sword Dance is here!

"Let us take this credit and use it as a gift to meet Lord Wen!"

"yes--!!"

The two hundred unarmored warriors behind him responded in a loud voice.

"kill!"

At Xu Sheng's command, he took the lead and ran downwards holding the ancient ingot knife!

Although they had no mounts, they ran like tigers and their speed was not much slower than riding horses. It was obvious that they had practiced well.

Originally, Xu Sheng, like Ma Zhong, did not want to work for Lu Bu after Lu Bu conquered Wujun, so he came to Jingzhou and planned to join Jin Xuan.

But after working under Jin Xuan for a while, he found that Jin Xuan was a weak guy with high expectations but poor skills, and was not someone worthy of joining forces with.

Not even as good as the infamous Lu Bu.

So he left Jinxuan with more than 200 militiamen under his command, and became bandits in the nearby area, waiting for the right time.

After just some observation, he found that the thousand-man cavalry under Lu Bu could kill enemies several times their number despite being at a huge disadvantage.

And the leading general was actually the famous Sun Ce!

Just a thousand cavalrymen have such extraordinary combat effectiveness and can make such a brave general willing to serve them.

It can be seen that Lu Bu does have some skills.

Xu Sheng planned to use this merit to meet Lu Bu.

If this guy is worthy of his assistance, he will serve him wholeheartedly. If not, it will not be too late to take his brothers and leave!
