Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1047: First in Armor Breaking
"Horse lance!"

Xu Chu came from the countryside and did not recognize this weapon at first glance. However, before Dian Wei surrendered to Cao Cao, he had served under Chenliu Prefect Zhang Miao for many years and recognized the weapon at the first sight.

At this moment, thousands of cavalrymen, including generals such as Guan Yu, without exception, each held a black lance in their hands. The lance tips, which were more than two feet long, flashed coldly under the faint light of the torches on the ground, and looked particularly terrifying.

"I've heard for a long time that this horse lance is the best at breaking armor, but I don't believe it. Today I'm going to dispel your rumor."

Dian Wei showed no fear at all. He raised his two iron halberds and rushed forward to fight.

"Brothers, go!" Xu Chu also called out and led the Pingshan Flying Army to form a human wall formation again. However, this time, the battle formation did not defend on the spot, but rushed forward slowly and powerfully step by step, turning into a moving wall.

Seeing Dian Wei and the others actually dared to rush forward, Guan Yu was extremely disdainful: "He is trying to stop a chariot with a mantis arm. He overestimates his own abilities."

The horse lance in his hand, including the lance tip, was a full eighteen feet long. At this moment, he held the middle of the lance. When he rushed to within twenty steps of Dian Wei, Guan Yu suddenly thrust the horse lance forward and at the same time loosened his hand holding the lance.

"Swoosh..." The spear pushed the spear tip and flew forward quickly. When it was about to completely escape Guan Yu's control, Guan Yu clenched his big hand again and grabbed the tail end of the spear.

Immediately afterwards, Guan Yu did not relax for a moment. He exerted force with his hands, and the lance was very straight without any bend, and stabbed it towards Dian Wei's chest.

"So fast!" Dian Wei only had time to have this thought in his mind, and then he hurriedly used his double halberds to block his chest.

"Ding..." The tip of the spear brushed against the edges of the double halberds, with no loss of force, and finally hit Dian Wei's armor.

"Cough..." Dian Wei was oppressed by the huge force coming from his chest and was unable to breathe for a while.

He struggled to block the double halberds, blocking the joint between the lance tip and the lance shaft, and used all his strength to try to hold the horse lance back.

Guan Yu sneered: "Even if you have the strength of nine oxen and two tigers, how can you stop it?"

He squeezed the horse under his crotch hard, and Chiyan Jueying galloped forward even harder. Guan Yu and Chiyan Jueying, man and horse, were exerting their full strength. Even though Dian Wei was such a strong and brave general, he was pushed back rapidly without surprise.

“Ha…” Dian Wei growled, his face flushed red, veins bulging, he stepped back and pressed hard against the ground.

However, even if he was alone against Guan Yu, he would still be inferior to Guan Yu, let alone with the addition of the extraordinary and majestic Chiyan Jueying?

No matter how anxiously he tried, it was always in vain.

"Go." Guan Yu shouted softly and increased the force on the spear again.

The collision of the two forces from both sides twisted the spear directly and bent it upward into an arch shape.

And it was after seeing this scene that Guan Yu showed a smug smile on his face.

"Boom..."

After a very slight sound, the spear suddenly straightened again, and Dian Wei's tall and burly body was flung out on the spot, along with several pieces of iron of different sizes.

When Dian Wei fell heavily to the ground, the armor on his chest had already been damaged in several places.

The same situation also happened to Xu Chu and the many Pingshan Flying Army soldiers at this time.

A charge of five thousand purple-gold dragon riders broke the ten thousand Pingshan Flying Army into pieces. The invincible human wall formation seemed to be vulnerable and was defeated under the horse lance attack.

"Quick, re-form the formation..." Xu Chu stood up and shouted orders. However, before the remaining Pingshan flying troops could gather again, the purple-gold dragon riders, who had never stopped, rushed forward again.

The seemingly indestructible armor of all Cao's soldiers, including Dian Wei and Xu Chu, was almost damaged at this moment.

"Ha, the eight-sided armor-piercing edges on this lance are really a good thing. I have practiced a lot in the past, but today is my first time in actual combat. It feels so good. Let's try again."

Zhou Yuan and others rushed forward shouting.

On a high platform in the distance, Liu He and others stared at all this intently.

"Your Majesty is truly far-sighted. Many years ago when you were still in Yanmen, you were able to think of spending a huge amount of money to forge such a powerful weapon, and it just came in handy today. To be honest, I was a little hesitant about this thing at that time. I thought that among the princes, no one would have such financial resources and courage to build such a strong armored infantry. I really despised it."

Cui Jun's words were spoken in a very sincere tone.

Liu He didn't have the mood to think about these things at the moment. He waved his hand, seeming a little absent-minded.

Xun Yu naturally knew what he was thinking, and stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, as the saying goes, good fortune brings blessings to those who are blessed. The eldest prince is not one who will be short-lived. I think that after this disaster, not only will he be fine, but he may even gain something."

"Yes, fortune and misfortune are interdependent. Zheng'er is a blessed man. Your Majesty does not need to worry." Zhang Yong also advised.

"Oh... I hope so. Remember, this news must not be passed back to Luoyang. The Queen Mother has been feeling unwell recently, so don't let her worry anymore."

Faced with such a fierce battle, Liu He's mind was completely elsewhere.

Xun Yu, Xun You, Cui Jun, and Xu Shu looked at each other, seemingly hesitant to speak.

Finally, it was Xun You who stood up and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me for being so presumptuous. Now is a great opportunity to wipe out Cao Cao. Your Majesty should not ruin military affairs because of a small matter. Your Majesty, please cheer up so that you can take this opportunity to clear up the situation in the region and rebuild the world."

Liu He heard this and frowned: "What do you mean by this, Gongda?"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he showed a look of sudden realization.

"I see. I understand."

Outside Hulao Pass, in a forest, a man is hiding.

The man was wrapped in a black robe, and it was difficult to see his face even in the daytime, let alone now that night had fallen.

The man squatted in a bush, his eyes fixed on the majestic Hulao Pass two or three miles away. He remained unmoved by the swarms of mosquitoes that swarmed around him.

At Hulao Pass, the soldiers guarding the pass patrolled back and forth without relaxing for a moment. It seemed that the guarding was very strict and there were no omissions at all.

However, at this moment, a burst of fire suddenly exploded behind the pass.

Teams of soldiers quickly ran down the city gates, ready to put out the fire.

The black-robed man's eyes, which had become a little cloudy from staring for too long, now burst into boundless light.

He continued to watch here for a while, then crouched down and quickly ran away from the woods. Not long after, the sound of horse hooves hitting the ground was heard.
