Chapter 845 Unexpected
"Hehe...Interesting... Really interesting. Finally, there's someone who can play with me for a while."

Zhu Ye's low voice, accompanied by a heart-throbbing laugh, reached Dian Wei's ears. Even with Dian Wei's bravery, he couldn't help but get goose bumps all over his body.

But despite this, he still mustered up his courage and pounced on Zhu Ye.

"Take another blow from me."

Zhu Ye looked at his two iron halberds swinging towards him, neither hurried nor dodging, but raised his two hammers.

"If you can push me back one step, you win."

The double halberds and the double hammers collided fiercely, and a huge noise spread in all directions, like a huge bell, resounding through heaven and earth.

The Cao army soldiers were all frightened and terrified, but the Han army soldiers had long been accustomed to the sound of Zhu Ye's hammers and were naturally not afraid.

In just this short moment, the Golden Sword Camp chopped and hacked continuously, killing thousands of Cao's soldiers in a blink of an eye.

After this attack, Zhu Ye stood still, motionless, while Dian Wei only took half a step back.

Dian Wei stepped back with his right foot, and his double iron halberds were almost knocked over his head by Zhu Ye. However, he used the recoil force to swing the double halberds over his head, and then chopped them upwards from the bottom of the left and right sides.

"It's good to come. It's progress."

Zhu Ye shouted with some excitement and pushed the double hammers downwards. The spikes on the surface of the double hammers just hooked into the twigs of the double halberds.

"Pick it up for me." Zhu Ye shouted in a low voice and forcibly lifted up Dian Wei's double iron halberds.

Then, he twisted his wrists and shouted "let go". Dian Wei felt a powerful force transmitted to his arms, and the weapon in his hand was directly lifted out of his palm.

"you……"

"What do you mean by 'you'? You dare to show off when you haven't learned the skills well. It's really embarrassing. I'll hit you with the hammer."

Zhu Ye sneered at him, shook his two hammers, knocked the two iron halberds hooked on the spikes to the ground, and rushed straight towards Dian Wei's chest.

Dian Wei quickly fell to the side to avoid the attack, then he pushed the ground with his right hand, steadied his body, and kicked out with both legs.

Seeing this, Zhu Ye sneered: "Want to attack me?"

He took a step forward with his right leg, firmly established his horse stance, and allowed Dian Wei's series of kicks to hit his calves.

"What?" Dian Wei was extremely surprised when he saw that he couldn't even shake the opponent in the slightest after using all his strength.

"Hehe, I have been following my elder brother and have been practicing horse stance for many years. How could I be afraid of you?"

Zhu Ye then used his right leg as the center of gravity and his left leg as a whip to kick out fiercely. Dian Wei hurriedly blocked it with his left hand, but was still kicked away.

"Haha, this is very interesting." Zhu Ye followed closely, raised his two hammers, and smashed them at Dian Wei who had not yet stood up.

Dian Wei was still lying on the ground at this time, unable to defend or dodge. He was about to die and be smashed into a puddle of mud when he suddenly heard a "whoosh" and a sharp arrow shot towards him.

"Huh?" Zhu Ye listened to the sound and determined the location. He realized that the sharp arrow was coming towards him, so he stopped immediately and swung his right hammer to the side.

"Ding..." With a crisp sound, the sharp arrow was smashed into two pieces and fell to the ground.

Dian Wei took advantage of the situation and kicked Zhu Ye directly in the chest. This kick used all of Dian Wei's strength, and Zhu Ye was caught off guard, so he was kicked back three or four steps.

"Ding ding ding ding..." The sound of the gong rang out, and Le Jin also shouted to Dian Wei: "General Dian Wei, retreat quickly..."

The remaining 10,000-plus Cao troops were already terrified, and many soldiers had already begun to flee. When they heard the order to withdraw, they instantly scattered like birds and beasts and fled in panic.

"If you want to escape, it's not that easy. Brothers of the Thunder God Riders, follow me to kill all of Cao's troops. Whoever cuts off the head of a Cao general will be treated to a drink by me personally." Zhu Ye snorted coldly, leaving Dian Wei behind and chasing after Cao's troops with his two hammers in hand.

But immediately afterwards, he suddenly felt a strong wind coming from behind. He hurriedly used his two hammers to block it. Then, when he was about to turn around to meet the enemy, a figure ran past him.

"Hey, you Dian Wei, I spared your life out of kindness, but you resorted to sneak attacking from behind. I'm going to smash you into a meat pie."

Zhu Ye was so angry that he ran after him without saying a word.

"Fifth brother, please wait..."

Zhang Yong hurriedly stopped him, which made Zhu Ye very unhappy.

"Brother, why are you trying to stop me? Cao's army has clearly been defeated and is fleeing. Dian Wei is no match for me. Once I and the five hundred Thunder God Cavalry catch up with them, we will be able to capture them all before daybreak, leaving no one alive."

"Haha, the fifth general is still so ambitious." Xun You walked out slowly.

When Zhu Ye saw him, he grinned: "Hey, Mr. Gongda is here too, why, you won't let me go and kill him?"

Xun You smiled and said, "How about I make a bet with you? If you chase us, we will be ambushed by Cao's army. If I lose, I will give you a jar of good wine. How about that?"

"Ha, why doesn't this young master..."

Before he could even utter the word "dare", Zhu Ye opened his mouth wide and stopped talking. He quickly swallowed and said, "Hey, Mr. Gongda has always been very careful with his plans and never made mistakes. I trust you, isn't that enough? If I don't want to chase him, then I won't. Anyway, whether it's Dian Wei or Cao Cao, their heads will be mine sooner or later. There's no need to rush."

Xun You laughed again, "Hey, who said we won't chase? We have to chase them, but not now. Cao Cao is not a reckless man who doesn't know what he is doing. He must know that he will lose more than he win when he comes to raid the camp this time. Therefore, he will set traps and ambushes on his escape route. If our army chases them now, it will be unpredictable. However, if Cao's army sees that we are not pursuing them, they will naturally withdraw their ambushes and return to defend the city as soon as possible. Then we can quickly chase them, not only can we wipe out all of Cao's army, but we can also easily capture several cities ahead. Isn't it convenient?"

"Great." Zhu Ye clapped his hammers, extremely happy.

"Sir, you are truly a god in this world. I admire you."

Zhang Yong stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "Alright, Fifth Brother, you have traveled all night and fought so hard, you must be tired. Come on, I will accompany you to have some food first, and then rest for a while. After dawn, it won't be too late to break camp and pursue the enemy."

"Okay, okay, let's go."

The two brothers, arm in arm, walked towards the military camp, each leaving behind his deputy to clean up the battlefield.

Xun You looked at the two men's backs, smiled, and prepared to return to his tent to rest. However, suddenly from another direction, a man rode a horse galloping towards them, attracting everyone's attention.

"Report... Urgent news from Jingzhou..."

Zhang Yong and Xun You stopped immediately and walked quickly to meet him.

The soldier jumped off his horse and knelt in front of Zhang Yong. "General, Cao Cao colluded with Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Huang Zu and other generals in the Jingzhou army. They first captured Liu Qi and used him to trick Liu Pan out of the city. They seized Jiangxia and then welcomed Cao's army into Xiangyang. Now that Liu Biao is dead, Jingzhou Nanjun and Jiangxia County have fallen into the control of Cao's army."

"So fast?" Both of them looked extremely shocked.

"Bad decision, bad decision. Now we are in trouble."

Zhu Ye looked puzzled. "What's the problem? Cao Cao is still in Jingzhou. Our army should hurry up and capture a few cities ahead tomorrow. Then we will have a big battle with Cao Cao in Yuzhou. With our military strength, can we lose to him?"

Xun You sighed softly, "It's not that easy. Cao Cao was able to collude with Cai Mao and others to seize Jingzhou in just a few days without any effort. Cai Mao, Zhang Yun, Huang Zu and other generals are all from big families in Jingzhou and have high prestige in the army. With their assistance, Cao Cao can easily subdue the nearly 200,000 troops of Jingzhou by land and sea."

"He has such strength. With the strength of our army and General Gao Shun, even if we can invade Yuzhou, we will have to fight him for a long time after he returns. We can't do anything to him. What's more, who is Cao Cao? Since he has calculated the battle situation in Jingzhou, he must have left many tricks in Yuzhou. I am afraid that once our army enters Yuzhou, it will be stuck in the quagmire and difficult to escape."

"This...what should I do? Should I just let him go like this?" Zhu Ye was very unwilling.

Zhang Yong thought for a moment and said, "I think the situation on Gao Boping's side is similar to ours. The sudden loss of Jingzhou is really beyond our expectations. I must report this to my brother before making a decision."
