Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 223 Tragic Battle Situation
Gao Shun and others, however, looked determined.

"A true man is reborn to serve his country and his people, and it is an honor to die!"

"General Gao, you're right. I, Zhang Liao, admire you! Although I'm young, I've fought alongside heroes like you and Captain Liu. I have no regrets even if I die today. Hahaha!"

Zhang Liao laughed wildly. The Xianbei cavalry seized the opportunity and stabbed him with a spear. Zhang Liao hurriedly dodged, but the spear stabbed his horse, and the horse immediately fell forward.

"Let's die together!"

Zhang Liao threw himself with all his might, jumping from his horse's back directly onto the Xianbei cavalryman who had stabbed his horse to death, and threw him off his horse as well.

"go to hell!"

Zhang Liao raised his sword and chopped off the man's head.

Several Xianbei cavalrymen immediately surrounded him. Zhang Liao half-knelt on the ground, looking at the chaotic pile of horse legs all around him. He couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.

"Get out of my way!"

He shouted loudly and swept the sickle around him, and saw that the horse legs were chopped off immediately.

The war horses wailed incessantly and the Xianbei cavalrymen fell to the ground one by one. At this time, a figure suddenly pounced over and killed all of them in a few seconds.

Zhang Liao calmed down and saw the appearance of the person who came. He couldn't help laughing and said, "Haha, Brother Chu Xuan, you stole my credit. You have to treat me to a drink later."

Chu Xuan looked at him and said one word for the first time: "Okay!"

After saying that, he took off his armor which was severely damaged and almost completely stained with blood, threw it on the ground, and rushed out again.

Zhang Liao's eyes were filled with admiration: "What a man! He is so brave and fearless. He is an extraordinary hero. He must be a role model for my family!"

The two men worked hand in hand as infantrymen, shuttling among the torrent of cavalry.

However, although these two men were able to act violently for a while, how could the power of just two people reverse the battle between these 20,000 cavalrymen and several thousand untrained infantrymen?

Chu Xuan lost his armor again and was soon covered with wounds. Zhang Liao was also hit by two Xianbei soldiers' spears and flew several steps away.

"Ahem... a real man has no regrets if he can kill dozens of bandits with his own hands!"

Zhang Liao coughed up a mouthful of blood, supported his body with his knife, and half-knelt on the ground.

Kuitou watched this scene and danced with joy.

"Hehe, weren't these guys very fierce just now? I wanted to kill you, haha! Quick, quick, kill them and cut off their heads!"

Upon receiving the order, several Xianbei cavalrymen thrust their spears forward and rushed towards Zhang Liao and Chu Xuan.

"stop it!"

Gao Shun's eyes were about to burst and his teeth were almost broken, but he was also surrounded by a group of Xianbei cavalry. His injuries were not much better than Zhang Liao and Chu Xuan. How could he be rescued?

"Ugh...well..."

A loud horn sounded through the sky, alarming the soldiers on both sides on the battlefield.

"Kill!"

The earth-shaking shouts of killing followed the sound of the horn.

Everyone was still wondering which force could have such a large army and cause such a big commotion, but they heard Guan Yu shouting first.

"It's our fourth brother! Big brother, it's our fourth brother Mingwei, he's here to support us!" Liu He and the others looked over. Although the reinforcements were still far away, the big banner with the word "Zhang" on it flying high was dazzling as it danced in the wind!
"No doubt about it! It's coming from the south. My fourth brother must have heard the news and led his troops to help from Yanmen Pass! Everyone hold on, our reinforcements have arrived, and the Xianbei are doomed!"

Judging from the situation, Zhang Yong brought out as many as 20,000 to 30,000 people from Yanmen Pass. Once this group of well-fed and well-rested elite soldiers join in, there is no doubt that the Xianbei will be defeated!
The Anmin Army soldiers, who had been beaten and felt frustrated, saw the hope of victory and released all the anger in their hearts!
"Go to hell, Hu Gou!"

"You just stabbed me in the back, I'll give you three stabs back!"

"If you break one of my fingers, I'll pay you back with your life!"

Many Anmin Army soldiers ignored everything and jumped directly onto the horses' backs to pull the Xianbei cavalry off, and then started beating them up.

Seeing that his plan that was about to succeed was suddenly disrupted, Kuitou almost vomited blood.

"Damn it! Why is the Yanmen garrison so strong this time? There are many more people than before! What's going on?"

A general who had been guarding him before ran over.

"Captain, this battle is not going well, let's retreat! Although we have the upper hand against the Han army in front of us, it will take a long time to annihilate them. Now that tens of thousands of troops are coming, I'm afraid we will suffer a loss!"

"Bah! Nonsense!" Kuitou slapped him in the face.

"My Xianbei cavalry is invincible. No matter whether it is the Han, Wuhuan, or Xiongnu, who are we afraid of? Have we ever withdrawn after being defeated? If I return to the tribe, Qianman and his followers will definitely laugh at me. No, we must continue to fight and destroy them!"

"No, Chief. The Han Chinese have a saying that if you keep the green mountains, you will never worry about lack of firewood. If these elite soldiers are exhausted here, even if you win and return to the tribe, your power will still be taken away. As long as the army is in your hands, no matter how cunning Qian Man is, he will not be able to shake your position. What's more, in addition to Yanmen, we can also go to Jizhou to plunder, which is richer than Bingzhou!"

After hearing these words, Kuitou seemed to come to his senses a little.

"Well, you are not without reason. I have 130,000 cavalrymen under my command. We have to guard against other Xianbei tribes, deal with the Xiongnu in the west, and the Han in the south. If we lose all of these 40,000 troops this time, it will definitely be a big blow."

Thinking of this, Kuitou suddenly became a little angry.

"Humph, ever since the death of leader Tan Shihuai a few years ago, my Xianbei tribe has been scattered. Sooner or later, I will reunite the tribes. By then, the Han, Xiongnu, and Wuhuan will all be no problem. I, Kuitou, will become the only king under the sun and moon!"

Then, he said to the general, "Go, call back the men. Let's go back to Yanze and rest for a few days. Then we can march east to Jizhou and defeat the Han army over there to avenge today's humiliation!"

"Yes!"

The Xianbei general gave an order, and more than 20,000 Xianbei cavalry quickly left the battlefield and soon gathered around Kuitou.

"Humph, I will take revenge for today's defeat sooner or later!"

Kuitou swore secretly, then left with his army.

Guan Yu wanted to give chase but was called back by Liu He. After all, he had 1,500 cavalrymen, and although they were very powerful, there were less than 900 of them left. If he went to give chase, he would surely die.

Zhang Yong also rushed to Liu He's side.

"I'm glad you're okay, big brother! I was at Yanmen Pass and saw from afar that there seemed to be a large army fighting here. I suspected that the Xianbei cavalry had come to harass in advance, so I quickly selected 25,000 people to come and join the battle. Unfortunately, I was still a step too late."

Liu He grabbed his hand and said, "It's not too late. If it weren't for my fourth brother coming, how could the Xianbei people retreat so easily? I originally thought that I would wait until Governor Ye and the military advisor escorted the people to Yanmen Pass and informed you of this matter before you led the army to come. I didn't expect that my fourth brother could guess the war situation from more than ten miles away by looking at this vague situation. He is really the wisest general in my army!"

Zhang Yong felt a little embarrassed by the praise.

At this time, Guan Yu, Cheng Liang, Zhu Ye, Gao Shun and others all gathered around.

"General Liu!"

Gao Shun clasped his fists in greeting, but didn't say a single extra word.
