Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 272: Fighting Xu Huang Again
In a small woods just a few miles outside Yinguan City, everything was silent. Apart from the occasional chirping of birds and the chirping of insects, there was no other sound.

However, in this seemingly peaceful forest, a large group of people were ambushed.

However, a voice suddenly broke the silence.

"Look, General, the signal is coming!"

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound, and under the bright moonlight, they could vaguely see several streams of white smoke rising from a corner of the city ahead.

"Great! They succeeded! Heaven is truly blessing me, giving me, Mrs. Guo, such a great opportunity!"

Mrs. Guo's eyes were shining.

"Zhang Yan was frightened by Liu He. Last time, he and the Xianbei attacked Liu He together. He had such a good opportunity, but he didn't even see how many troops the other side had and fled in panic. He is really unworthy of being the leader of our Taiping Sect. Today I will break through this Yinguan City, and in the future I will be the one to raise the banner of our sect!"

Guo Tai stood up, drew his sword, and shouted: "Brothers, the insider in the city is still successful, let's charge into the city!"

These 20,000 troops were his own troops. In name, they had surrendered to the Black Mountain Army, but in reality they still only obeyed Guo Tai's orders. Zhang Yan could only mobilize these troops through him.

At this time, Guo Tai rushed out first, and the soldiers also rushed forward madly, howling.

However, within this team, there are a few people whose enthusiasm is obviously not that high.

"General Yang, Liu He is powerful, wise and brave. He loves his people like his own children and guards the border for his country. Last time we attacked him from behind, it was already an act of disloyalty and injustice. Now we are attacking him at night, which is even more shameless. Why don't you persuade General Guo?"

Yang Feng looked back at the person who spoke, and then said, "Gongming, I knew you would say that. I saved your life and your elder brother's life, and mine was saved by General Guo. He did this for the sake of our brothers' future good life. From now on, we just need to rob them of their wealth and don't harm the lives of the people in the city and Liu He."

But the man was shaking his head like a rattle.

"No, no, this is absolutely not allowed. Although I, Xu Huang, have no choice but to become a bandit, I will never do such a rebellious and unrighteous thing."

Xu Yi on the side also said: "Second brother is right, but General Yang has done us a favor after all. Later on, we brothers will not participate in the battle, but only guard General Yang's side."

Xu Huang thought about it and nodded, "Okay, that's the only way. If you and I stay here, we can at least restrain our comrades from killing people."

Yang Feng had no objection to this. He knew the tempers of the two brothers very well. Being able to do this instead of directly withdrawing from the operation was already a great honor for him.

When everyone arrived at Yinguan City, there was indeed no response from the city wall.

"crunch..."

The city gate was slowly opened, and then two heads popped out from behind the gate.

"General Guo, Liu He and his men are having a banquet tonight and are already drunk. Please enter the city!"

Guo Tai was overjoyed: "This is indeed a godsend! I have heard that Yinguan City is becoming more and more prosperous under Liu He's rule. We must seize this city today!"

He didn't care about anything else and rushed into the city first.

The 20,000-strong army also rushed inside, and no one noticed that behind the two people who were responsible for opening the door just now, in the darkness between the city gate and the city wall, there was a man holding a knife against the back of each of them.

Just after the entire army entered the city, the city gate was slowly pushed back.

Everyone was immersed in excitement because they had "captured" this solid and prosperous city that had left the Xianbei people and the 70,000 Black Mountain Army helpless, but Xu Huang was the only one who frowned.

"Something is wrong. If the generals were drunk and the soldiers guarding the city were dealt with, why didn't the people in the city react? There are 20,000 of us, singing and shouting so wildly, there is no reason why the people would not be woken up."

He was muttering to himself, and no one else paid any attention to him, except Xu Yi.

"Second brother, what you mean is... have we fallen into a trap again this time?" His voice was a little loud, and Yang Feng also heard it.

Although he was not as afraid of Liu He as Zhang Yan, he couldn't help but feel a little panicked when he heard the word "fall into a trap".

"Gongming, what's going on?"

Xu Huang was just about to explain to him when suddenly deafening shouts of killing rang out all around!
"Kill!"

This sudden but very orderly shouting and killing first scared Guo Tai's horse and almost made him fall off the horse.

"What's going on? What's going on?"

Mrs. Guo was not a fool. She quickly recalled what Zhang Yan had said: "Liu He from Yanmen is simply too strong. His military strength, military power, and intelligence are all a hundred times better than ours. You can never go to Yanmen. The benefits you think you will gain before you go will represent the size of the trap you will fall into after you go."

When she thought of this, Mrs. Guo couldn't help but shudder.

"Could it be... Could it be that I really fell into a trap?"

At this time, a soldier beside him said to him in a panic: "General, look, they are all government troops, everywhere! What should we do? What should we do? The city gates are closed, it's over, it's all over!"

After hearing what he said, Guo Tai hurriedly looked around. Sure enough, the city gate was closed, and the other three directions were all filled with Yanmen defenders.

"Haha, you bunch of black mountain bandits only care about food and not fighting. You have fallen into my big brother's trap so many times, but you just don't learn your lesson. It's a waste of food to keep such a stupid person. Why don't you let me give you a hammer?"

Zhu Ye was the most direct. He raised his two hammers and led the 500 Thunder God Riders he had just expanded to charge forward.

Cheng Liang and Liu He were naturally unwilling to fall behind, and soon started fighting with the Black Mountain Army.

At this time, not only was Guo Tai panicking, but Yang Feng's face was also pale.

"General Yang, I have already said that we cannot come to Yanmen... Well, today's battle will make it impossible to escape, and the only thing left is death. I will risk my life to save General Yang, and this can be considered as repaying the life-saving grace."

Xu Huang brandished the axe in his hand, rushed in front of Yang Feng, and cleared the way towards the city gate.

Liu He saw the situation here from afar and was a little surprised.

"Hmm? This enemy general with a single axe is quite brave, but unfortunately he has gone astray. Hmm... Why did this man only knock out the soldiers of our Anmin Army with the back of his axe instead of killing them? Could there be such a hero among the Black Mountain Army?"

Liu He was just about to charge forward and capture the enemy general when he saw a gust of wind rising from behind him.

"My lord, this man followed the old thief Zhang Yan to attack us south of Yanmen last time. I fought with him and the outcome was inconclusive. Today, I will definitely defeat him!"

When Liu He looked, he saw that it was Wu Meng riding a horse straight towards the enemy general.

"Well, Yun Lie now has a strength of 89, and his weapon can also increase his strength by 1 point, so he should have no problem dealing with that enemy general."

While Liu He was thinking about it, Wu Meng had already rushed to Xu Huang.

"Hey, enemy general, last time you were so despicable and shameless that you assisted the Xianbei people in a surprise attack on Yanmen Pass. Today you dare to attack us at night. How despicable! The outcome was uncertain between you and me that time. Let's fight to the death today!"

As soon as Wu Meng finished speaking, the tip of the spear had already pierced Xu Huang's face.

Xu Huang was shocked, but it was too late to resist, so he kicked his legs and jumped back a distance, then swung his axe and split the spear in half with one blow.

"Excellent spearmanship. I haven't seen you for a few months. Your martial arts have improved. Take another blow from my axe!"
