Chapter 180 A sudden turn of events
Zhang Jue had just recovered from his disheartenment, and now he was in high spirits when he joined up with the Bai Que army.

"Great Sage Master, please forgive me. I lost you in Yingchuan with the two commanders Yuancheng and Fuyun. After that, the three of us gathered our followers in Yanzhou and recruited some new soldiers, totaling more than 20,000 people. Unexpectedly, there was a cavalry captain named Cao under Huangfu Song's command. He chased our army everywhere and defeated us many times with less than 10,000 troops. He even killed the two commanders Yuancheng and Fuyun. Later, I learned that the Great Sage Master had entered Shangdang, so I hurriedly brought the 15,000 remaining soldiers to rescue us!"

Zhang Jue was in a good mood and laughed loudly, saying, "Haha, now that you are here, our army has nearly 50,000 soldiers and horses. After the loss of that old thief Huangfu, he only has more than 30,000 people left. I must capture this city no matter what. I will hang the head of this old thief on the city gate to warn those who are against my sect! As long as this old thief is dead, it doesn't matter whether it's Cao or Gan!"

Bai Que was also very excited, as if he had already seen the day when he would become a founding hero.

"I will obey the orders of the Great and Good Master!"

Zhang Jue looked at the city wall fiercely.

"Hmph, we have been fighting here for more than an hour, the imperial army must be exhausted. Now you lead the army to attack the city first and replace the soldiers in front of the battle. After they have had a drink of water and rested, you will replace them. If we keep fighting like this, they will be exhausted to death!"

"Great and Good Master, your plan is indeed brilliant. I will go right away!"

Bai Que excitedly led 15,000 soldiers behind him and rushed to the front line of the siege.

As for the soldiers defending the city, victory was on the horizon, but the situation suddenly changed. It was like a piece of hot iron being suddenly poured with a basin of cold water. The blow to morale can be imagined.

"What a pity. I almost killed that horn just now."

"What should we do now? We were originally evenly matched, and we had the advantage of terrain. Now the enemy has suddenly sent such a large wave of reinforcements. Can we hold on?"

"I'm so sleepy, I can hardly keep my eyelids open... um..."

Huangfu Song was extremely anxious when he saw this, but no matter how he boosted morale, the effect was ultimately limited.

Huangfu Song sighed.

"Alas, the only way now is for me to go out of the city and fight again to boost morale!"

Several lieutenants hurriedly tried to dissuade him: "General, you can't do this! The enemy army is much stronger now, and it is totally different from before. If you leave the city now, you will be in danger. If something goes wrong, our army will lose all morale!"

Huangfu Song looked up at the night sky.

"Alas, I know this, but our army is weak now and morale is so low. If things continue like this, I'm afraid we won't survive until today. Only in this way can we have a chance of survival. You two follow me out of the city. Please ask Governor Zhao to arrange for the soldiers to be divided into three groups and take turns to have breakfast."

Some people around him felt a little reluctant, but they knew there was nothing they could do to persuade him, so they had to obey.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted, "Look, General Guan and his cavalry are surrounded!"

When Huangfu Song heard this, his heart suddenly tightened and he looked over quickly.

There were less than a hundred cavalrymen left out of the original two hundred cavalrymen beside Guan Yu. They and Guan Yu were surrounded by Zhang Liang and two other generals, who had two thousand men with them. These two thousand men were all specially selected spearmen.

Even if Guan Yu wanted to break through on his horse again, it would be impossible for him to jump over such a long distance.

This further strengthened Huangfu Song's determination to leave the city.

"Yun Chang is a future pillar of the imperial court. He must not die here. Soldiers, follow me and charge out!"

Under the city, Zhang Liang's face was grim. He was looking at the red-faced general who had killed countless soldiers under his command. He felt extremely angry.

"You finally got your day. Kill him for me!"

At the command, dozens of spears stabbed towards Guan Yu at the same time!

"Humph!"

Guan Yu snorted coldly, leaned back, and the Qinglong Sword circled around his body like the wind.

All that was heard was a loud "clang" and dozens of gun heads fell to the ground.

"Sorry..."

Chiyan Jueying neighed and raised its front hooves. Guan Yu grabbed the rope tightly in his hand, swung the knife in his right hand suddenly, and chopped off the heads of the two men.

"General!" The cavalrymen not far away were surrounded, and in a blink of an eye, two more of them fell to the ground.

"Brother, you have worked so hard to build this cavalry team. Now, due to my incompetence, most of them have been damaged. Even a hundred deaths cannot redeem me! Today, I, Guan, will only die, but I will never allow my cavalry brothers to suffer any more damage!"

Guan Yu was determined to die, and his morale was high.

"You ants, get away from me!"

The Green Dragon Crescent Blade seemed to have turned into a real green dragon at this moment, moving forward without fear or hesitation, and wherever the blade passed, people's heads fell to the ground.

"Who can be my opponent under my Qinglong sword?"

Guan Yu's eyes were shining with brilliance, and his eyebrows were raised, like a god descending from heaven!
"System prompts, Guan Yu has been through many battles and is now in danger. He has stimulated his potential and gained a new skill - Sword King: When using a sword, his strength increases by 3 points, suppressing the strength of the enemy's sword-type generals by 2 points, and his own strength increases by another 1 point when fighting against enemy non-sword-type generals."

"Since no one in the enemy army that Guan Yu is fighting at this time uses a sword, Guan Yu's force is increased by 4 points, and his current force is 99 points."

Liu He, who was hurrying on his way, was stunned.

"How come everyone can have multiple stunts?"

"The system never said that a person can only have one stunt."

"……All right."

Liu He didn't have the mind to argue with the system at this time. He only noticed that Guan Yu was "in danger".

"Second brother, you must hold on and wait for big brother. Big brother will be here soon!"

Liu He looked at the valley entrance that was vaguely visible in the distance ahead, and his heart became more and more anxious.

After yesterday's battle, Guan Yu was like a god in the eyes of the Yellow Turban Army. Now that they had a chance to "kill the god", the surrounding soldiers were very excited.

However, the "divine dragon" that had been trapped with great difficulty suddenly made an effort to break free and displayed its divine power again. In a blink of an eye, more than a dozen souls were killed by its sword and rushed towards the cavalry. This scared the Yellow Turban Army that was besieging the cavalry.

"This enemy general has been fighting for such a long time and has been surrounded by us, but he was able to escape. He is now even more brave than before. Could he be a god?"

Guan Yu took advantage of the time when they were stunned and even panicked, and rushed to the side of the cavalry in a blink of an eye.

"General, you..."

The remaining ninety-odd cavalrymen were deeply moved when they saw Guan Yu fighting so hard to rescue them.

"Brothers, follow me, fight your way out of this enemy formation and return to the city!"

"Follow General Guan and charge!"

Guan Yu led the charge, with more than ninety cavalry guarding on both wings, and they charged towards the city gate like plowing a yard!
"Hahaha, Yunchang is so brave and loves his soldiers so much. It is really a blessing for our Han Dynasty!"

Huangfu Song felt extremely happy when he saw this scene.

"Soldiers, follow me to support Yun Chang! Charge!"

Zhang Jue, however, felt his teeth itching at the scene before him.

"Damn it, is this red-faced guy immortal?!"

Zhang Bao pleaded: "Don't worry, big brother. This red-faced man has just attracted the old thief Huangfu to leave the city. I will work with the third brother to surround them together, and a battle will decide the outcome!"

After Zhang Bao finished speaking, he spurred his horse and charged into the battle formation.

Zhang Liang on the other side immediately realized his second brother's intention and quickly led his troops to chase Guan Yu.
