Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 526: Besieging Guan Yu
Yan Quan shouted so excitedly that Guan Yu and others also noticed the figure and looked over with joy.

What made Guan Yu even more excited was that another figure appeared on the top of the hill and shouted to him.

"Brother, withdraw your troops immediately. This battle is not going well. We can discuss it later. We must not allow our soldiers to suffer more casualties!"

Guan Yu was very familiar with this voice.

"It's my fourth brother, my fourth brother is here!"

He was so excited that he waved to Qian Ning quickly.

Qian Ning understood and immediately sounded the horn to call back the troops.

The purple-gold dragon knights retreated like a tide in an instant.

How could Zhang He miss such a good opportunity? "The enemy's heavy cavalry, wearing heavy armor, has now dismounted, just like lambs to be slaughtered. What can a mere Ye Xiang, even if he is a god of archery, do? Everyone, follow me and charge forward!"

The city gates were wide open, and Zhang He personally led 20,000 Jizhou soldiers and horses to charge out.

Guan Yu's face changed slightly, but he was not panicked.

"All generals, follow me to stop the enemy. The rest of the soldiers, mount your horses as soon as possible!"

Zhang Liao, Yan Quan, Qin Chu and Zhou Yuan stood on both sides of Guan Yu respectively. Zhou Yuan's shoulder had been bandaged, but Yan Quan didn't even have time to bandage his shoulder. He gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain in his left shoulder and right thigh, and insisted on fighting. Even though his face was already pale, he refused to retreat.

Qian Ning was originally responsible for delivering messages and assisting in dispatching troops, and rarely participated in battles in person. But at this time he also ran over and fought alongside them.

Seeing this, Zhang He couldn't help but feel a sense of respect in his heart.

"I have heard for a long time that the general's soldiers worked together under his command, so their fighting power was so strong. Seeing them today, I finally understood the reason. Guan Yu was a man of such status, almost second only to Liu He, but he was able to personally step forward to buy time for ordinary soldiers. Yan Quan was shot by two arrows from me, but he was still so resolute. No wonder the soldiers of Bingzhou are so brave and fearless."

But respect cannot gain military merit. Although he admired the enemies in front of him, he did not hesitate at all.

"Look at the halberd!"

Zhang He was wielding a crescent halberd. He knew that he was no match for Guan Yu and Zhang Liao, so he could only adopt the tactic of human wave. He led an army of 20,000 and attacked Guan Yu and his six men.

There were only six people, but no one showed any sign of panic when facing the charge of an army of 20,000.

Guan Yu held the Green Dragon Crescent Blade tightly in both hands and stared at Zhang He with narrowed eyes, but he did not move at all. He stood there like a statue.

"Twenty steps..."

"Ten steps..."

"Eight steps..."

"Five steps..."

"Do it!"

Guan Yu suddenly shouted loudly, and six people attacked at the same time.

In the blink of an eye, six Jizhou soldiers who were at the front were killed on the spot.

This is not over yet. The flashes of swords and sabers were seen frequently. The 20,000 soldiers of Jizhou were all infantry. Guan Yu and six of his men were blocking the road. These soldiers were killed as they came.

In a short while, dozens of corpses were lying around Guan Yu and others.

The morale of the Jizhou troops, which had finally been raised, was immediately hit back down. Everyone was frightened and felt insecure.

Zhang He saw that if this continued, he was afraid that his reputation would be ruined.

"Change formation, thousands of spearmen, and archers in the back!"

At the command, a group of soldiers holding spears of exaggerated length ran out from the 20,000 troops.

The spears in the hands of these soldiers were no less than 15 feet long, and hundreds of such spears stabbed towards Guan Yu and others at the same time.

"Everyone, be careful!"

Guan Yu gave a reminder and swung his Qinglong sword to deflect several spears that were stabbing at him.

"General Guan, such long spears are very weak. The force of our attacks is much weaker when it reaches their hands. It is not easy to knock their weapons away."

Qin Chu said with a sullen face.

"Since I can't knock them away, I'll just chop them off." Guan Yu took a horse stance with his feet, exerted strength with both hands, and chopped out suddenly.

“Crack…Crack…”

With a few light sounds one after another, the spear heads were chopped off and fell to the ground.

"What a great Guan Yu!"

Zhang He was slightly surprised: "It's hard for you to break through here for the time being, but can the other five people be as brave as you?"

His eyes turned and soon locked onto Yan Quan.

At this time, the two arrows in Yan Quan's body had not been removed yet. Although the bleeding had stopped temporarily, the excruciating pain made him sweat coldly, his face turned pale, and his whole body trembled.

"Fighting to the death, he is a true god-like general. Such a brave general is going to die at the hands of Zhang. It is really because each of us serves his master and we have no choice but to do it."

Zhang He felt a little reluctant, but he quickly suppressed it and made up his mind.

"Let's kill this man first!"

"Protect Lunin!"

Zhang Liao discovered Zhang He's intention, and rushed to Yan Quan in one step, and cut an enemy soldier who was rushing towards him into two halves with one sword.

"Wenyuan, I... cough cough... I'm fine, don't worry about me..."

"What nonsense! How can we, the Purple Gold Dragon Riders, ignore our comrades?"

A majestic voice sounded, Yan Quan barely raised his head to take a look, and it was Guan Yu himself standing in front of him.

"General Guan..."

Guan Yu did not allow any explanation and pulled both him and Zhou Yuan behind him.

"Someone, take Generals Yan and Zhou away and let them have a good rest!"

"General Guan, we still..."

"This is a military order!"

Guan Yu's unquestionable voice came. Although Zhou Yuan and Yan Quan wanted to continue fighting, the pain in their bodies was unbearable. The soldiers quickly ran over and took them away.

"You bastard, take this knife!"

Guan Yu swung his sword and rushed forward. Wherever he went, no one could stop him. Heads fell on both sides of him.

Seeing that his plan had failed, Zhang He gritted his teeth and said, "Then I'll kill you first. With 20,000 soldiers, can't we kill Guan Yu?"

He waved his hand, and the spearmen quickly surrounded Guan Yu and the other four.

The four tried to break out several times, but just as they cut off a few spears and killed a few spearmen, new soldiers came to fill the gap.

"Don't worry, as long as we hold on for a while, the Purple Gold Dragon Cavalry will be assembled, and the troops of my fourth brother will surely gather together. As soon as they arrive, what is there to fear from a mere Zhang He?"

Then they remembered that Zhang Yong, Ye Xiang and others had come to rescue them. They came down the mountain from the top and circled here. The distance was not far, and they should be there soon. The Purple Gold Dragon Riders' warhorses were only a few hundred steps away, so they should be ready soon.

However, at this moment, Zhang He suddenly shouted: "Archers, get ready!"

"what?"

Zhang He waved his command flag and said, "Shoot!"

"Fire arrows!"

Zhang He was stunned: "Huh? Who is imitating the way I speak?"

"General... General... look..."

A soldier pointed at the sky in front of him in horror. Zhang He looked up and his hair stood on end.

Countless arrows, densely packed, were shooting towards him.
