Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 189 Rain Battle
To the west of Mount Yiqi, there is a fairly wide valley between the taller and more rugged Taihang Mountains.

The valley is so wide that it looks like a plain.

This large valley plain is planted with apricot trees, persimmon trees, jujube trees, walnut trees, and pear trees, covering the entire plain.

What is somewhat surprising is that this valley has no exact name and there is not even a fortress built in it.

Perhaps it is because this place is too far away from the core area of ​​Qishan and is not taken seriously by military strategists.

No matter what, Hao Zhao, who was escorting the grain team in the valley, was still very nervous.

I looked up at the air above.

A damp and muddy feeling came over me; it was obvious that it was going to rain soon.

It would be better if it rained.

The muddy dirt road would trap attackers and make it difficult for them to get out of the valley, which was a good thing.

But who will come here is also the key.

Just as I was thinking this, I suddenly heard a cannon shot in the distance.

Hao Zhao's heart tightened and he thought to himself, "Here it comes!"
He hurriedly ordered everyone to be on alert in preparation for the enemy's attack.

But after a while, a group of Shu troops rushed over.

At first glance, the leader was riding a white horse and holding a big axe. Who else could it be but Xing Daorong, the vanguard commander of the Shu army?

Hao Zhao was immediately overjoyed. If he could kill Xing Daorong with this plan, the situation would naturally be reversed.

Although he was overjoyed, he could not show any flaws on his face. He just shouted hurriedly: "Enemy attack! Fight back!"

After he finished shouting, he raised his sword and stepped forward, ready to perform the whole show and fight with Xing Daorong in person to make it more realistic.

really!

The enemy general shouted in front of the battle: "I am Xing Daorong of Lingling. You have been ambushed by me. Why don't you surrender quickly?"

It’s really Xing Daorong!
Hao Zhao's heart was pounding. He originally wanted to lure some Shu troops as bait. It would be even better if he could capture a few generals.

I never expected that this would directly seduce the head coach!

But he didn't have time to think about it, and just cursed: "Xing Daorong, you killed my general, and you dare to come and die today!"

"Look, I, Hao Zhao, am here to kill you!"

After saying that, he spurred his horse and charged forward with his sword.

Xing Daorong swung his axe at them, and Hao Zhao raised his sword to meet him. With a "bang", he felt a powerful force coming from the sword.

Hao Zhao's heart trembled, thinking to himself that Xing Daorong was indeed powerful.

That's exactly what happened.

After learning the "Sixteen Postures of Guan Dao", Xing Daorong's martial arts also made a qualitative leap.

If it were to be embodied into a numerical value, Xing Daorong's current martial arts strength would be around 92-93.

Probably he can't beat top fighters like Lu Bu, Dian Wei, and Guan Yu, but he can compete with the others.

Hao Zhao really couldn't beat Xing Daorong at this time. After fighting for three or five moves, he knew he was no match for him, so he turned around and left in a hurry.

When Xing Daorong saw that Hao Zhao had escaped, he did not try to catch him. Instead, he ordered his men to take away the food and fodder and attempted to leave the valley.

When I was halfway there, I heard a loud bang in the sky, and then heavy rain suddenly poured down from the sky.

The rain splashed on his body, making Xing Daorong feel suddenly cold.

Feeling the dirt road suddenly become muddy, he thought to himself that if he really came here to rob food, then this sudden heavy rain would become his death warrant.

fortunately…

It remains to be seen who will be killed by this heavy rain.

...

But Hao Zhao escaped and immediately found Xiahou Yuan who was lying in ambush and said, "General, Xing Daorong is not suspicious at all. He is now escorting food and grass and is slowly leaving the valley."

Xiahou Yuan was overjoyed when he heard this.

"Good!" "It's raining heavily today. God is helping me!"

"Hao Zhao, Zhu Ling, quickly lead the troops to the valley. If we kill Xing Daorong today, we can break this situation!"

The two generals obeyed the order and led their troops away immediately.

Xiahou Yuan looked excited.

Unexpected!
The grain robbery was indeed done by Xing Daorong himself!

It is foolish for a Marshal to take such a risk!
But on second thought, Xiahou Yuan came up with a reason for Xing Daorong.

He must have come here to rob food because he didn't want to let others know too much about the army's food shortage.

But no matter what, this action really gives myself a chance!
He secretly hated her: "Xing Daorong, Xing Daorong, you are courting death, you can't blame me!"

Without any hesitation, he led his troops to attack.

However, Xing Daorong was escorting grain all the way, and originally wanted to drag it out to give Xiahou Yuan an opportunity to bring more people so that he could annihilate him in one fell swoop.

Unexpectedly, it was raining heavily, so I didn't have to slow down my pace deliberately. I just walked normally and walked very slowly.

"Zi Yu... the enemy will attack soon. I will protect you. Don't look back, lest our ambush arrives late due to the heavy rain and something unexpected happens."

Beside Xing Daorong, Zhou Tai reminded him repeatedly with some concern.

It’s a pity that Xing Daorong didn’t take it seriously.

But he said: "Don't worry, Youping, this ordinary person...can't hurt me."

"Even if Xiahou Yuan has some skills, it's a bit unrealistic to think that he can catch me when I'm ready."

"Besides...if I don't show up, how can I let him pursue me?"

"Today's opportunity is rare, so it doesn't matter if we take some risks..."

Zhou Tai sighed when he heard this.

In fact, he also knew that his advice was probably in vain.

Xing Daorong was able to risk his life to rescue him from Jiangdong, let alone now that he is on the battlefield, he would not hesitate to risk his life.

He just secretly thought that he must protect the Marshal well, because he couldn't be the one who plotted against others and then have an accident happen first.

Just when I was getting fully alert, I suddenly heard three long howls.

Then a burst of voices arose, and Zhou Tai immediately shouted: "Zi Yu! The enemy is coming!"

Xing Daorong naturally knew it and had already looked over there.

really!

See, the one leading the way is none other than Xiahou Yuan!
He immediately shouted, "Xiahou Yuan, you came so quickly, but are you in such a hurry to die?"

When Xiahou Yuan saw that it was really Xing Daorong, he could no longer contain his joy.

He laughed loudly, "Xing Daorong! You have also fallen into the trap! Surrender quickly and lead me to attack your camp. I will spare your life, otherwise you will die!"

After saying that, Hao Zhao and Zhu Ling's troops arrived from behind, blocking the road from three sides, leaving only the south as a way to go.

Xing Daorong knew that this was a "dead end" that Xiahou Yuan had left for him. There must have been rocks and rocks waiting for him on the road, so how could he go there again?

Besides, I have somewhere to lure him to, so I definitely can't give the initiative to Xiahou Yuan.

He immediately shouted at Xiahou Yuan: "Xiahou Yuan! You want to kill me, but it's too easy for you to think about it!"

"Today, at worst, I will trade my life for yours!"

"Even if I die, I will drag you down with me!"

After saying that, Xing Daorong ignored the blockade of the two groups of troops behind him and broke through in the direction of Xiahou Yuan.

It really looks like he's willing to exchange one life for another!

"Reckless man!"

Xiahou Yuan made a disdainful comment, and seeing Xing Daorong riding his horse to kill him, he drew his bow and arrow, aimed at Xing Daorong and shot an arrow.
