Chapter 1948: Chapter 1950: Slaughter
As soon as the words were out, you took the exquisite steel blade handed over by the guard beside you, spurred your horse, and charged fiercely at the army ahead!
"Kill!"
"Kill, kill, kill!!!"
The twenty thousand elite troops under your command were secretly trained in Xuzhou by Zhao Yu!
Among them, five thousand cavalry followed you, forming a wedge formation in the sprint, like a sharp steel knife aiming to pierce the enemy’s position!
Xiahou Dun, who was fighting hard against Zhang Fei, never expected you to completely disregard the rules and immediately cursed, "Li Muyun, you shameless scoundrel!"
"Old blind man, take my spear!"
Zhang Fei took advantage of the gap, spun around, and swept his spear sideways!
"Dang!"
Xiahou Dun reacted quickly, hurriedly supporting his sword to block.
However, Zhang Fei sneered, suddenly pulling back his spear and thrusting fiercely!
Seeing the long spear about to pierce his chest, Xiahou Dun hurriedly sidestepped to dodge, but his speed was ultimately a bit slow, and his left rib was still scratched by Zhang Fei’s spear blade, leaving a deep gash.
"Take your dog life!"
Although injured, Xiahou Dun still had the strength to fight, and reinforcements were already behind him.
From above, it looked like two ant formations crashing together!
The first clash was between your five thousand cavalry and Xiahou Dun’s twenty thousand cavalry.
"Whoever blocks me dies!"
The five thousand elite cavalry shouted in unison, maintaining the same rhythm throughout!
Swing the blade! Swing the blade again! Each blade saw blood, each blade was deadly!
The tip of the wedge formation, you were like an evil ghost from the Underworld, wielding your steel blade like a soul-reaping tool.
Cleaving knife, the opponent’s armor shattered, people destroyed!
Thrusting blade, heads flying!
"Everyone follow my lead! Once we’ve slain fifty thousand enemies, I’ll reward each with a voluptuous woman!"
"Oh!!!"
These men were carefully selected by Ren Hongchang, most had no family background, and had undergone inhuman devil training at Ren Hongchang’s base. Many of them had never tasted a woman’s touch, some hadn’t even held a woman’s hand; this promise was like heavenly nectar to the extremely thirsty.
In an instant, morale reached its peak.
You and your five thousand elite cavalry tore open a large gap in the enemy’s frontline cavalry formation, and this gap widened quickly. Suddenly, an open space appeared before you and you realized you had led your men through their cavalry formation!
Now, directly ahead of you was the enemy’s central army. Your speed was so swift that the enemy’s left and right flanks had not yet reacted; only the central army surged forward upon seeing you.
Decisively, you shouted, "Zhang Cheng, take two thousand men and raid the enemy’s right wing! Xiao San, you also lead two thousand cavalry to raid the left wing! Make it quick and clean; don’t come back missing limbs, or I’ll leave you crippled!"
"Yes!"
Without unnecessary words, Zhang Cheng and Xiao San, one left and one right, charged at the enemy’s left and right wings, taking advantage of the enemy’s unadjusted defensive positions.
Then you shouted at the hundreds of cavalry behind you, "Follow me into the enemy’s central army, and take the heads of Gao Lan and Zhang He!"
"Kill!"
Hundreds of voices shouted together, resounding powerfully, echoing through the clouds.
With a wave of your steel blade, you cut through the dust with your blood-stained blade, directly carving out a not-so-wide but sufficient path for the troops behind you to unleash their assault.
At this moment, Gao Lan in the Cao Army’s central army appeared somewhat panicked. Though he had never seen you before, your infamous reputation was known throughout the Nine Provinces. Not only were you suppressing their ten thousand troops with just twenty thousand, but you also led hundreds of elite cavalry charging at him. Gao Lan was momentarily at a loss, Xiahou Dun had vanished in the army, fate unknown; now Gao Lan, the highest ranking, had to make a decision.
"General Gao, you temporarily lead the army in retreat, I’ll fend off Li Muyun!"
Zhang He had always followed Gao Lan under Yuan Shao, but Gao Lan never thought highly of the low-born Zhang He, even displeased that Zhang He was only half a rank lower during this march. Now in crisis, Zhang He’s bravery indeed made Gao Lan somewhat appreciative.
It’s not the time for sentimentality. Gao Lan heavily patted Zhang He’s shoulder, solemnly saying, "Brother, take care!"
Zhang He nodded, wielding his long spear, shouting, "Men, follow me in battle, and bury this vile thief here!"
The central army numbered only over eight thousand. Gao Lan took five thousand during retreat, leaving three thousand to Zhang He.
In fact, these eight thousand were among the more formidable fighters in the Cao Army. Previously, in Jizhou battling Yuan Shao, they chased Yuan’s Army, leaving them in disarray. If Gao Lan wasn’t afraid, had formed up to resist, even if you were mighty, it would be impossible to break through their defenses quickly. When the flanks regroup, they could send reinforcements, and even wear you down in time.
Zhang He initially intended to hold for a period then retreat, but he underestimated your combat prowess.
Downward slash!
The sunlight reflected off the blood-soaked steel blade, and your rear eight hundred cavalry not only prevailed over many but frightened the enemy deeply!
Just these eight hundred people gathered exuded an aura making witness feel a hallucinatory fear. Plus, led by you, like an unstoppable Demon God, increased the Cao soldiers’ psychological terror.
The steel blade plunged into the bodies of Cao soldiers, its force immense, often directly cleaving them, entrails spilling forth, adding to their psychological burden. Soldiers who once considered themselves elite found they couldn’t even lift their swords, many watching helplessly as enemies struck, their bodies divided.
Zhang He too was stunned by the terrifying cavalry before him, yet he, a battle-hardened general, spurred his horse, launching a rider aside, then charged at you, roaring, "Thief Li, surrender your life!"
Seeing Zhang He charging at you, your brow curled into a wicked grin. Your right hand suddenly twitched, the steel blade and right arm disappearing from Zhang He’s sight instantly.
"Not good!"
Zhang He hurriedly raised his spear to defend!
"Dang!"
In the moment your steel blade collided with Zhang He’s spear shaft, a mighty force akin to the weight of Taishan bore down, Zhang He felt his entire body sink, hearing his beloved horse’s pained whinny!
"Crack!"
Zhang He’s horse’s four sturdy legs suddenly emitted a sound of bone breaking, under your pressure Zhang He sat down!
This moment, just another strike, and Zhang He would be done for. However, you ignored Zhang He, instead continued to lead your men in a swift charge, shouting, "Whoever takes Gao Lan’s head, earns a thousand gold!"
