In the Three Kingdoms period, the opening scene features the killing of Huang Gai, shocking Zhou Yu!

In order to make money,

No, it's to raise money for the future grand scheme of things in the Han Dynasty.

a few days later.

Ye City, beside the Bronze Sparrow Terrace.

It's time to promote the second phase of the project and prove just how fast the newly built "Changbing-Xuye Expressway" really is.

Zhao Yu planned an unprecedented marketing campaign – the first "Cement Cup" Speed ​​Challenge.

A huge banner was hung directly at the entrance of the sales office.

[Next-day arrival in Xuye! A dual-city lifestyle is no longer a dream!]

The racetrack is the cement road (northern section) that connects Ye City and Xudu.

It is thirty li long.

There are only two participants.

Blue Team: Tiger and Leopard Cavalry Commander Cao Chun, followed by Cao Xiu, Cao Zhang, Zhang He, Yue Jin, and others, totaling fifty of the most elite cavalrymen.

They were all mounted on tall, imposing horses from the north, clad in light armor, exuding a menacing aura.

Red Team: The Xiliang F5 Team, consisting of Ma Chao, Ma Dai, Pang De, Cheng Gongying, and Yan Xing, leads fifty Xiliang cavalrymen.

Although they had their own grudges, those were things of the past. Now they were all Cao Cao's men, so who would dare to bring up the old stories?

Today, they represent the dignity of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry!

Behind him were forty-five Xiliang assassins, all riding the same kind of fierce horses from the Western Regions.

One hundred horses!

The first row has ten horses running side by side!

With a single command, this is a clash of steel torrents!

If you deviate even an inch, you'll be thrown off balance and trampled into a bloody pulp by the ninety pairs of iron hooves behind you!

"Zhao Yu..."

Cao Cao, standing on the reviewing stand, had sweaty palms.

"Isn't this going too far? If even one of these people gets hurt, my heart aches!"

Zhao Yu held a glass of chilled plum juice in his hand, took a sip, and spoke in a flat tone.

"Prime Minister, rest assured, I've already given instructions. Besides, it's not a large road; how can that demonstrate the 'hardness' of our cement road?"

"Only this kind of extreme trampling can prove whether the road surface can withstand the impact of thousands of troops."

"Moreover... look at the odds over there. Ma Chao wins at 1 to 1, Cao Chun wins at 1 to 2, and Cao Zhang wins at 1 to 0.5. If we, as the bookmakers, lose, we gain traffic; if we win, we make money. We can't lose."

"preparation--"

Ding Yi stood at the starting station, waving a command flag in his hand.

"Making tough talk before the game."

"General Cao, if you're afraid of dying, it's not too late to withdraw from the competition now."

Cao Chun snorted coldly:

"You barbarians from Xiliang, don't come crying for your mothers later!"

"receive!"

"Attention all departments—"

"kill!!!"

The command flag was cut down.

One hundred warhorses exerted their strength at the same time, their iron hooves slamming heavily onto the hard cement road surface.

It starts with hand-to-hand combat!

"Squeeze in! Squeeze in for me!"

Pang De roared and, taking advantage of the size of his white horse, charged directly at Zhang He.

"Bang!"

The two horses' shoulder blades collided.

Zhang He was not to be outdone.

"Good timing!"

The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry formed a battle formation and held their ground.

"Yan Xing! Don't you dare push me! Push Cao Chun instead!"

Ma Chao roared, and the roar exploded from the formation.

Yan Xing sneered.

"I love pushing you! Let's see who flips over first!"

Despite their verbal sparring, their teamwork was flawless. They flanked Cao Xiu from the left and right, effectively trapping him at the back of the formation.

They snatched half a horse's seat.

This is not over yet.

A huge "S-shaped bend" appeared ahead.

This is a "death test zone" specially designed by Zhao Yu.

The road surface is not only curved, but also has an incline that is lower on the inside and higher on the outside.

If it's a dirt road, you must slow down.

Otherwise, the horse's hooves will slip, and both the rider and the horse will fly off.

Cao Chun instinctively pulled on the reins: "Slow down! Maintain formation!!"

This is the discipline of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and also their instinct for survival.

But those lunatics in Xiliang...

"accelerate!!!!"

Ma Chao, Pang De, Ma Dai, Yan Xing, and Cheng Gongying roared simultaneously.

Everyone knows how Zhao Yu treated them in Tongguan that year.

Whether you like it or not, you have to accept it.

Moreover, Zhao Yu had told them in advance.

"As long as your horse dares to run, we dare to take over the road."

Five madmen, crouching low, were practically pressed against the horse's back.

The warhorse's body tilted at an incredible angle.

It means flying very close to the ground.

The iron hoof scraped against the cement, even leaving a mark.

No slippage!

caught!

That extreme centrifugal force was steadily supported by the rough texture of the cement road surface.

As Ma Chao rounded the bend, he didn't forget to reach out and give Cao Chun the middle finger.

He's still looking for his mother.

Let's see who can find their mom.

Goodbye!

"Crazy! These are all crazy people!"

Cao Chun was dumbfounded.

These people from Xiliang are not only reckless, but why are they also going crazy along with the road?

How come it didn't fall even at such a steep angle?

The finish line.

The Xiliang F5 team crossed the finish line with overwhelming force.

Ma Chao is first, Pang De is second, and Yan Xing is third.

Cao Chun's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry fell behind by a full ten body lengths due to the slowdown.

Completely defeated.

It wasn't that we lost to Ma Chao, but to the road and the technique.

The crowd erupted in thunderous cheers.

This adrenaline rush drove everyone into a frenzy.

Ding Yi seized the opportunity and shouted through a megaphone:

"See that? That's the smoothness of a concrete road!"

"Thirty li (approximately 15 kilometers) in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!"

"Iron hooves cannot break it! Warhorses do not slow down when turning! It does not raise dust in the wind! It does not get stuck in the rain!"

"Living in Tongque Dijin means you'll have the highway right outside your door!"

Have breakfast in Yecheng this morning, go to Xudu for business the next day, and you can still have a hot meal when you come back the following evening!

A burst of laughter erupted from the audience.

Ding Yi's expression hardened, and he continued to raise his voice:

"The limited-edition Phase II units are now open for pre-sale registration! If you don't register now, when will you?"
