Super Cultivation System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 865 Zhang Yong Falls
Cao Cao pointed his whip in the direction of Gao Shun's retreat and said, "I laugh at Gao Shun's lack of skills. He used such a lowly trick to lure our army into pursuit. Wouldn't it expose his ambush in front of him? This trick may deceive others, but how can it deceive me?"

"My lord is wise." Everyone praised.

"Pass the order down, let Gao Shun retreat on his own, and the entire army is not allowed to pursue him, otherwise you will be subject to military law."

After receiving the order, Le Jin and Cao Chun were very reluctant but had to retreat.

Jia Xu, who had been silent all the time, looked at Gao Shun's army which had retreated to a distance and was about to disappear from his sight, and looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Seeing this, Cheng Yu took the initiative to ask: "Does Wenhe have something to say?"

Cao Cao also looked over when he heard this and said, "Wenhe, feel free to speak up if you have any ideas."

Jia Xu hesitated for a moment before speaking: "If Gao Shun does not fight back, where will he go if he leads his troops to retreat now?"

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Wenhe has always been a man of few words, why is he so worried today? If Gao Shun doesn't fight back to the battlefield, where else can he go? If he retreats to Chenliu and lets Zhang Yong be killed by our army, how can Liu He let him go? Gao Shun is so smart, how could he not understand this."

Jia Xu moved his lips, with a look of doubt still on his face, but when he saw that Cao Cao had turned his head away, he said nothing more.

Here, Zhang Yong and Xiahou Dun fought for seventy rounds, and then the Golden Sword Camp was surrounded. Zhang Yong shook him off and rushed into Cao's army. In a blink of an eye, he killed hundreds of Cao's soldiers. He ran around and attacked from all directions, and only then did he save the Golden Sword Camp from danger.

Before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, he heard a sound of breaking air behind him.

He suddenly became alert and used the skill of identifying positions by listening to sounds that he had practiced with Liu He since childhood. He steered his Red Hare horse and leaped sideways more than ten feet away, easily avoiding the hidden arrow.

"You have good physical skills. I wonder if you can dodge my shot."

A familiar voice sounded, Zhang Yong turned his head and saw that it was indeed Xiahou Yuan.

"Your two brothers are here, but why should I be afraid?"

He picked up his spear and started fighting. The two spears, one black and one silver, were like two dragons, entangled in a fight.

"System prompt: Zhang Yong vs. Xiahou Yuan. Zhang Yong's basic strength is 94 points. The King of Soldiers, King of Armor, and mount have increased by 5 points in total. The special skill 'Ghost Axe' has been triggered, and the strength has increased by 4 points. The current comprehensive strength is 103 points."

"Xiahou Yuan's basic military strength is 94 points, and his weapons and armor are increased by 2 points in total. He has the special skill 'Speedy March' - when leading the army on the road, his own command is increased by 4 points, and the marching speed of the entire army is greatly improved; when leading light cavalry in battle, his own command and military strength are increased by 2 points each, and the military strength of all cavalry officers and soldiers under his command is collectively increased by 1 point. Currently, he is leading light cavalry in battle, so this skill is triggered, and his comprehensive command reaches 82 and comprehensive military strength reaches 98 points."

Although Xiahou Yuan's fighting power was much inferior to Zhang Yong's, he could still hold off the enemy for a while. During this time, Xiahou Dun was not idle either. He led the heavily armored cavalry and rushed into the Golden Sword Camp formation.

The Golden Sword Camp was already being held back by Dian Wei and Xu Chu, and the heavily armored cavalry had some restraint on the Golden Sword Camp. Now Xiahou Dun led the cavalry to shuttle back and forth between the camps, quickly splitting up the Golden Sword Camp piece by piece. The formation was broken, and Commander Zhang Yong was unable to split himself to command, so the 30,000-strong Golden Sword Camp gradually became a little chaotic.

"It's really annoying. If I lose this battle, how can I face my elder brother? How can I face my younger sister and my nephew?"

When Zhang Yong thought of Zhang Yu and Liu Zheng, and the prosperous Wang family of Taiyuan, he felt as if he was being tortured by fire.

In a trance, Xiahou Yuan's face in front of him became more and more blurred, and he couldn't tell who he had turned into. But Zhang Yong always felt that he was so hateful, which made him angry.

He had rarely gotten angry over the years, but suddenly he was furious: "Anyone who stands in my way will die."

The power of the axe in his hand suddenly increased. Although Xiahou Yuan managed to block it, he was shocked to find that the barrel of his gun had become slightly bent.

"Oh no, this guy is going crazy."

Xiahou Yuan felt that it was not good. He was no match for the other party in the first place. If this continued, he would be defeated or even injured within ten rounds.

"This general will not accompany you any longer."

He fired a feint and rode away.

"Leave your life behind, thief." Zhang Yong chased after him, but the surrounding Cao army quickly surrounded him, making it difficult for him to chase Xiahou Yuan. "Get out of here." He had been besieged by Cao's army for a long time, and was already upset. At this moment, he was full of anger and had nowhere to vent. For a moment, he only attacked and did not defend. Relying on the power of the golden armor, he was temporarily safe, and instead killed Cao's army one after another, making the enemy tremble with fear.

However, the golden armor was not omnipotent. Although he killed hundreds of Cao's soldiers, he was also chopped and stabbed dozens of times. Several parts of the golden armor gradually showed signs of being punctured. However, Zhang Yong was extremely angry and did not notice it at all.

Not far away, there was a man who had pointed a bow and arrow at him, but his heart was filled with anger and he had completely lost his ability to be vigilant.

"Duh."

Xiahou Yuan shouted softly, and a sharp arrow shot out into the air.

Faced with such a powerful arrow, the golden armor finally couldn't bear it anymore. It just slightly slowed down the force of the arrow and was pierced by it, allowing the arrow to shoot into Zhang Yong's right chest.

"Wow..."

Zhang Yong cried out in pain and fell off his horse.

"Good." Cao Cao, who was standing on a distant hillside, clapped his hands and cheered: "Our army has already won."

"Congratulations, lord, for regaining Yanzhou." Everyone congratulated him.

Xi Zhong immediately said, "My lord, I wonder if Gao Shun will come back. Do you want to make some more preparations?"

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Of course. I expect Gao Shun to come back again. I will send an order to Xiahou Yuan to capture Zhang Yong. Do not make it public. The army will continue to fight. When Gao Shun comes, lead him to the depths of the battlefield and surround him from all sides. Make sure to capture him as well."

"As ordered."

The messenger quickly ran down the mountain. At this moment, Cao Cao was in high spirits and looked very proud.

After receiving the order, Xiahou Yuan quickly guessed Cao Cao's intention. He immediately passed the order to the generals around him, then picked up his spear and rushed to Zhang Yong himself.

"You're capable of arresting me after you've shot someone in the back?"

Zhang Yong seemed to be possessed by a demon at this moment. His eyes flashed with scarlet light, and his originally heroic face became somewhat distorted and hideous.

"kill."

He roared, ignoring the injury on his right chest, gritted his teeth, and fought Xiahou Yuan again.

"System prompt: Zhang Yong's force has been reduced by 8 points due to injury. The golden armor is partially damaged, and the force bonus has been reduced by 1 point. The current comprehensive force has become 94 points."

"Xiahou Yuan's overall military strength remains unchanged at 98 points."

After hearing this prompt tone, Liu He, who had been calmly reviewing memorials in his study, suddenly broke the brush in his hand.

"Click..."

This slight sound caused Xun Yu and Qian Li to turn their heads and look over hurriedly.

"Your Majesty?" the two asked softly.

Liu He looked at the two of them and then forced a smile: "It's okay, I've used this pen for a few years, I'm afraid the pen holder is rotten."

Then he shouted to the outside of the palace gate: "Gong Saner, get a new brush."
