Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 829: Two Generals Break the Formation
As the saying goes, heroes admire each other. When Xu Chu saw Dian Wei's momentum and the courage he brought against thousands of troops alone, how could he not admire him?

Especially when he saw the big flag with the word "Gao" on the city wall, he became even more furious.

"Great, the imperial army. Everyone says Gao Shun is so brave and wise, but I didn't expect him to be such a shameless person who bullies the minority with his numbers. It seems that Liu He is indeed a treacherous person. This hero must be a good person. Even if I risk my life, I will help him."

Just as he was thinking for a moment, a thousand Han soldiers armed with heavy shields had surrounded Dian Wei.

"what!"

A thousand people shouted at the same time, and then some of them, holding heavy shields, took a step forward at the same time, while the others stayed where they were.

In this way, the encirclement changed from one circle to two circles, inner and outer.

Dian Wei secretly thought that this was not good. He knew that if he let the opponent shrink back, he would be trapped in a short while and unable to move at all.

"Fight!"

He made up his mind, twirled the two iron halberds in his hands, leaped forward, aimed at one of the heavy shields, and chopped it down fiercely.

The soldier did not dodge or evade, did not move or hide, just stood there, allowing Dian Wei to chop him.

"clang……"

A dull sound spread in all directions, and Dian Wei fell to the ground, but the heavy shield did not move at all, as steady as a mountain.

Dian Wei looked at his hands which were trembling slightly from the recoil and was shocked.

"The Han Wuzu was feared throughout the world, and it really lived up to its reputation. It looks like I will die here today. Brother Dameng, I don't know whether you are dead or alive now. If you have been killed by the old villain Liu He, then it's a good opportunity for you and me to reunite in the underworld."

During this gap, the Han soldiers shouted again, and the encirclement shrank inward again. The dark heavy shield formation and the thick dark clouds covering the sky complemented each other, as if they were going to suffocate people.

Several generals around Gao Shun were eager to try and wanted to rush forward and capture Dian Wei personally. When Gao Shun saw them like this, he nodded.

These generals were immediately overjoyed and rushed forward one by one with noose in hand.

Just when Dian Wei was filled with despair and was ready to commit suicide to avoid humiliation, he suddenly heard a wild roar in his ears.

"Don't panic, warrior. Xu Chu is here to help you!"

Dian Wei was shocked all over. Although he was a little confused, he knew from the words that someone was here to help him, so he looked around hurriedly.

However, he was surrounded by layers of heavy shields of the Han Wu soldiers, making it difficult for him to see what was happening outside.

Just at this moment, a noose suddenly fell from the sky and landed on his head.

Dian Wei had originally made up his mind to die, but at this moment, just because of this sentence, he felt boundless hope. He rolled to the ground, and at the same time, he chopped with his two iron halberds to avoid the attacks from the noose.

Immediately afterwards, an angry shout was heard from outside the encirclement: "Who are you and how dare you? This is the imperial army, rounding up the criminals, why don't you retreat immediately!"

"Get out of here, I can't stand you, the dog officials who bully the people by taking advantage of your power. Come and die!"

Then, there was a sound of weapons clashing, followed by a scream.

"Wow……"

The voice of the man who called himself Xu Chu sounded again: "Haha... It is said that there are many brave generals in the imperial army, but I didn't expect them to be so vulnerable. The heroes in there, hold on for a while, I am here to save you!"

Dian Wei was pleasantly surprised, but then he became worried and anxious: "Thank you for your kindness, hero. These Han Wu soldiers are extremely powerful. It is impossible for you and I to escape. Don't worry about me, just go..."

However, what responded to him was a series of sounds of hacking and killing.

Then Xu Chu shouted again: "Don't panic, my hero. Their heavy shields are surrounding you. I will break through their formation from behind and rescue you."

When Dian Wei heard this, he also thought it made sense: "It seems that God will not abandon me. I am saved today."

Deputy General Ge was shocked when he saw this strong man who appeared out of nowhere and was so brave that he knocked down two heavy shield soldiers of the Han Dynasty in just a few moves. "Who is this guy? Judging from his martial arts, he seems to be as good as Dian Wei. How can there be so many brave generals in the countryside of Yanzhou? It's strange."

Gao Shun only glanced at Xu Chu, waved his hand expressionlessly, and ordered: "Turn around."

The messenger beside him issued a military order, and then the four circles of heavy shield soldiers, the outermost circle, turned around in unison, faced Xu Chu, and quickly surrounded him.

Xu Chu had witnessed with his own eyes how they surrounded Dian Wei, so he was naturally prepared at this moment.

He leaned forward and rolled on the ground, and while the heavy shields were still being held up by the soldiers and had not yet fallen to the ground, he placed the machete in his hand against the ground and swung it violently.

Afterwards, streaks of blood spurted out and screams were heard one after another. In the blink of an eye, the legs of six or seven heavy shield soldiers were chopped off by him. They fell to the ground with their shields, wailing incessantly.

Xu Chu followed suit, and in just a few moves he chopped off the legs of more than a dozen heavy shield soldiers, which made him laugh wildly with pride.

"Hahahaha...hahaha...what a bunch of crap Han Wuzu! Look at me, Xu Chu, who will become famous today."

Deputy General Ge was furious: "What an arrogant man! General, I will fight you and chop off his head!"

Gao Shun frowned slightly: "You are no match for him."

Afterwards, without waiting for Deputy General Ge to say anything else, Gao Shun immediately gave an order, asking the heavy shield soldiers to stand still and thrust the bottom of the heavy shields into the ground.

Xu Chu slashed with his sword again, but it only scratched the surface of the heavy shield, making a sharp sound that gave people goose bumps.

"Oh... this sound is really unpleasant to hear."

Xu Chu only felt a shock in his ears, and then his hands went numb and he almost couldn't hold the knife.

"Roar...roar..."

The heavy shield soldiers pushed their shields and slowly surrounded them from both sides.

Xu Chu cried out that something was wrong, jumped up with all his might, and chopped down with his sword, but he repeated Dian Wei's mistake before, and was knocked to the ground by the recoil of the hard heavy shield.

"Roar...roar..."

Seeing that the encirclement was getting smaller and smaller, the only gap was about to be closed. Although Xu Chu was not very smart, he knew that once the encirclement was formed, he would be trapped and would have no choice but to surrender.

"You want to trap your Grandpa Xu? Wishful thinking."

He put the machete on his waist, stared at the gap, gritted his teeth, and ran out wildly.

"what……"

Xu Chu shouted loudly and exerted all his strength. He kicked his legs suddenly and bounced forward. His burly body, like a hill, hit the heavy shield heavily.

The heavy shield soldier he bumped into was an elite soldier among Emperor Wu of Han's soldiers. He was over eight feet tall, with a broad back and strong build, and had been through hundreds of battles. Whether in terms of strength, skill, or the use of the heavy shield, he was first-rate in the army.

But even so, under Xu Chu's full-strength collision, the soldier was knocked to the ground as expected. Xu Chu leaped out of the encirclement over him, then turned around and stabbed another heavy shield soldier in the back with a knife.

"It's extremely hateful!" Deputy General Ge and several other generals were extremely angry. If it weren't for Gao Shun's military order, they would have rushed out long ago.

But Gao Shun looked at Xu Chu with a bit of surprise, thinking to himself: "This man may look crude, but he is actually very smart. He was able to pick out a soldier who was moving and had not yet stabilized his center of gravity and attack him at the first opportunity. If he could be recruited and trained well, he would definitely be a great general in the court."

At this time, Xu Chu, relying on his far superior flexibility than those heavy shield soldiers, had already rushed out of Dian Wei's encirclement. With a wave of his sword, he easily knocked down several heavy shield soldiers from behind.

"Good man, come out quickly. If we fight side by side, we will definitely be able to escape."

Xu Chu chopped down another heavy shield soldier, then saw Dian Wei and started shouting.
