Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 861 Secret Weapon
The two armies were originally fighting evenly matched and it was difficult to tell who was the better winner. When the battle was at a stalemate, the unstoppable Golden Sword Battalion and the indestructible Han Wu soldiers suddenly rushed out and immediately broke the balance of the battlefield.

The Golden Sword Camp and the Han Wuzu have come out in full force this time. Each unit has 30,000 elite soldiers, lined up in solemn formation, with murderous aura that intimidates all directions.

"It's the Han army's Golden Sword Battalion and the Han Wuzu. Run away..."

"This elite force is so skilled at killing people, we are no match for them..."

"Retreat quickly, saving your life is the most important thing..."

The front part of Cao's army suffered heavy casualties in just a short while of fighting with the Golden Sword Camp and the Han Wu soldiers. The rest were so frightened that they no longer cared about any military orders and turned around to flee.

In the blink of an eye, the Cao army's originally very strict and orderly battle formation was torn to pieces by the rush and killing, and it was a mess. "

Zhang Yong was delighted when he saw the situation: "The entire army will pursue and press forward to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop."

"Wait a minute, General." Xun You stopped him, "Cao Cao is very good at using troops. He has the Golden Sword Battalion under your command and the Han Wu soldiers under General Gao. He has known about this for a long time. How could he not be prepared? Now the enemy army is collapsing at the first blow. There must be something fishy going on."

Zhang Yong said without hesitation: "Since our Golden Sword Battalion was established, we have never been defeated in the past ten years. What can Cao Cao do to defeat our army?"

After that, he insisted and ordered: "The whole army should pursue and kill Cao the thief."

"Hey, General Zhang..." When Xun You wanted to dissuade him again, Zhang Yong had already led the charge out.

"General, you are still greedy for merit for the sake of the eldest prince. I am afraid that you will ruin the whole thing. What should I do..."

Xun You was extremely anxious. He pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked up and looked in the direction of Gao Shun's army.

"Well, General Gao is indeed calm and composed, and has not fallen for Cao's tricks. The odds of victory in this battle are on his shoulders."

Thinking of this, he spurred his horse and galloped towards Gao Shun without hesitation.

Zhang Yong personally served as the vanguard general and charged in the front. Although his martial arts were not as good as Guan Yu and Zhu Ye, and were also slightly inferior to Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, he was able to easily defeat these ordinary Cao army soldiers.

He swung the Earth-Splitting Axe in his hand wantonly, and batches of Cao's soldiers fell around him. Not only him, but also the 30,000 Golden Sword Battalion, with golden swords in their hands, shining with cold light and looking very sharp, they only charged for a short while, and countless Cao's soldiers died under his swords.

Zhang Yong bravely stepped forward, his heart also filled with excitement: "Sister...Zheng'er, even if I risk my life, I will protect your two positions in the palace. You must not let the Taiyuan Wang family bully you."

As soon as this thought came to his mind, he suddenly saw a group of Cao's soldiers in front of him. Contrary to their usual behavior, instead of fleeing, they took the initiative to meet him.

These Cao troops were all infantry, half of their bodies were blocked by a half-person-high shield. At the front of this army were the two fierce generals Dian Wei and Xu Chu.

"Brothers, we raise soldiers for a thousand days but only use them in one moment. Charge forward!"

Dian Wei shouted loudly, swung his two iron halberds, and rushed to the front of the Golden Sword Camp first.

"Click..."

Although the golden sword was sharp, the martial arts of these soldiers were far inferior to Dian Wei. As soon as they started fighting, after only one round, the head of one of the soldiers from the Golden Sword Camp was chopped off by Dian Wei.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Chu also led about 10,000 shield soldiers to kill them together.

Zhang Yong seemed to sense that something was wrong, but at this point, he had no way out, so he raised his arms and shouted: "With the golden sword, we are invincible, kill them all."

The soldiers of the Golden Sword Battalion were already ambitious and considered themselves to be the most elite troops in the world. They did not take any enemy seriously. Therefore, after Zhang Yong gave the order, the 30,000 soldiers of the Golden Sword Battalion rushed forward like hornets whose nest had been poked.

"Shh..."

The golden sword slashed out with force, and the opponent's shield soldiers immediately blocked it with the large shields in their hands.

"Hehe, how can a mere shield stop me? Do you know that the sharpness of our army's golden swords is comparable to peerless divine weapons?"

Zhang Yong was very disdainful.

However, the next scene made his eyes widen, as if their eyeballs would fall out at any time.

The Golden Sword Camp's slashing sword was unexpectedly blocked by the opponent's shield. Not only did it fail to split the shield, it didn't even create an obvious gap.

"What on earth is this? How can it defeat my golden sword?" Zhang Yong was shocked. Dian Wei laughed triumphantly, "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. This is what the general prepared for you, the Golden Sword Battalion. This shield is made of hardwood, and there are nearly ten iron rods on the back. How can it be afraid of you? Brothers, stand shoulder to shoulder and attack."

He jumped high into the air and split a soldier from the Golden Sword Camp in half with one halberd, but the spurting blood only made him more crazy.

Xu Chu shouted, "Haha, brother Dian Wei, let's compete today to see who kills more enemies. The loser will buy a drink. How about that?"

Dian Wei said without hesitation: "Let's compete, come on."

Although the two men were big and strong, they were extremely agile and moved freely among the thousands of soldiers. Although they did not have the big shield to protect them, the Golden Sword Battalion still found it difficult to hurt them. Instead, they were hit repeatedly by them. Soldiers fell to the ground one after another, and golden swords fell one after another, which made Zhang Yong furious.

"Dian Wei, Xu Chu, stop being so arrogant. Take my axe."

He swung his axe and chopped it towards Dian Wei's forehead.

"Come on, I'll take you down first, hehe."

Dian Wei was not afraid at all. He held one of his double iron halberds above his head and swept the other one across at Zhang Yong's mount.

"System prompt: Zhang Yong vs. Dian Wei. Zhang Yong's basic strength is 94, and his King of Soldiers, King of Armor, and mount are increased by 5 points in total. The special skill 'Ghost Axe' is triggered, and his strength is increased by 4 points. His current comprehensive strength is 103 points."

"Dian Wei's basic force is 97, his weapon is increased by 1 point, and the special skill 'Infantry Combat' is triggered, which increases his force by 5 points. Since he is currently in the upper hand, the special skill 'Brave' cannot be triggered. His current comprehensive force is 103 points."

With equal force, the two men were entangled in a fight. After thirty rounds, there was no sign of who would win.

Xu Chu shouted, "Zhang Yong, others may be afraid of you, but I am not. I will chop off your head today. Brother Dian, here I come."

He swung the machete in his hand and chopped Zhang Yong's waist and abdomen.

Zhang Yong was shocked and hurriedly hit the ground with his axe, then suddenly jumped up and barely avoided the attack.

Unexpectedly, Dian Wei became unhappy: "Brother Xu Chu, please withdraw. You can lead the troops to fight on your own. I, Dian Wei, cannot rely on others to help me in a fight. Otherwise, won't I be laughed at?"

Xu Chu didn't care about it, but asked with concern: "Brother, can you deal with Zhang Yong alone?"

Dian Wei responded as he attacked: "Zhang Yong is just a nobody. He is nothing to worry about. Watch me kill him."

"How shameless! Look at the axe." Zhang Yong was so angry that he added another three points of strength to his hand.

The shield soldiers of Cao's army, under the command of Xu Chu, rushed all the way, just restraining the Golden Sword Camp. However, they only had 10,000 soldiers after all, and the two sides soon fell into a stalemate again.

On the north side of the battlefield, Gao Shun was calm and composed, commanding the Han Wu soldiers to defend instead of attack, and to win by maintaining stability. When the enemy retreated, he did not pursue them, and when the enemy attacked, he ordered the Han Wu soldiers to shrink into square formations. This formation, with heavy shields outside and long spears here, was truly an unbreakable and powerful battle formation.

However, almost at the same time when the shield soldiers on Zhang Yong's side appeared, two generals suddenly led their troops and rushed over from the other side.

"Gao Shun, do you still remember me, Xiahou Dun?"

"You thief, Xiahou Yuan has come here today to seek revenge, why don't you accept death?"

The Xiahou brothers advanced side by side, galloping on their horses, but what surprised Gao Shun was not the two of them, but the fact that each of them had thousands of cavalrymen behind them.

The two teams of cavalry, the ones behind Xiahou Yuan, all carried longbows, while the ones behind Xiahou Dun, both the men and horses, were dressed in armor, and they looked like replicas of the Feiyu Cavalry and the Purple Gold Dragon Cavalry. However, their armor and longbows were obviously not as sophisticated as those of the cavalry under Guan Yu and Zhao Yun.

But even so, this was enough to shock Gao Shun.

The art of horse riding and archery is extremely difficult to master, needless to say, the heavy cavalry is extremely expensive. Even with the current financial resources of the Luoyang court, it can only barely support 20,000 Purple Gold Dragon Riders. If the army is to be expanded further, even the current treasury of the Han Dynasty will find it difficult to support it.

From Liu He to the generals and even the Han army soldiers, everyone was proud of this and firmly believed that only the imperial court had the financial resources and ability to train such elite cavalry.

However, such a cavalry army actually appeared among the enemy troops. How could Gao Shun not be extremely surprised?
"Riding skills... How can they ride like this?"

Gao Shun immediately grasped the key point. Money, food, and armor were easy to solve, but whether it was riding and shooting on horseback or fighting in heavy armor, the requirements for riding skills were extremely high. This was what puzzled him.

However, the Xiahou brothers obviously did not intend to give him time to think about this matter. They attacked from both sides and led their cavalry to rush forward.
