Chapter 44: Guan Yu's strong battle
Under the city of Runan, Liu Bei led 5,000 elite cavalry to confront Cao Cao's defending general Xu Huang. [Ran^Text^Library] []
"General Xu Huang, you can't hold Runan City, surrender quickly, don't sacrifice your soldiers anymore." Liu Bei exhorted loudly.
Xu Huang scolded: "Liu Bei, don't pretend to be a good person here, if you want me to open the city and surrender, you must step on me." ”
Hearing this, Zhang Fei was furious, and he was about to go out to fight him. Guan Yu stopped in front of him with a horizontal knife: "Second brother, yesterday I already let you let go and kill thousands of Cao Cao's soldiers, and today this general will be handed over to me!" After speaking, he rushed out of the formation with a knife in his left hand and kicked the horse's belly.
Seeing Liu Beifang walk out, Xu Huang was not to be outdone, and came to the front of the battle. He originally wanted the other party to report his name, but he immediately noticed the big knife in the general's hand, the blade was cyan throughout, and a domineering dragon was tattooed on it, could it be the legendary Blue Dragon Glaive Knife? "Come on, but Guan Yu Guan Yunchang?"
Guan Yu proudly stood up his sword and said slowly: "It is the Martial Saint Guan Yunchang!" ”
Xu Huang saw him admit that although he was very nervous in his heart, he said stubbornly: "Legend has it that Guan Yu is strong in martial arts, then let me come and learn it!" As soon as he finished speaking, he summoned a long axe from his hand and slashed at it.
Guan Yu did not change his face to Xu Huang's attack, and his left hand reversed the blade of the knife to block his axe. Holding his right hand at the back end of the hilt, he quickly unloaded the long axe aside, raised his hands flat, and slashed out horizontally.
Xu Huang narrowly dodged and withdrew his long axe. I saw that Guan Yu actually swung his knife again, and the speed of the collection was so fast that Xu Huang couldn't react, so he could only hold up the long handle of the axe to block left and right. Gradually, Xu Huang was suppressed and had almost no chance to make a move, and could only defend passively.
is worthy of the legendary martial saint, if he is just competing in force, he is not his opponent at all. However, this is not ancient times, we are the Star Chosen One! Xu Huang suddenly erupted into a strong gust of wind, which made Guan Yu have to retreat.
"Hmph, the Awakening Star Picker? Let me see what you're capable of? Guan Yu said with a flat expression.
I saw a faint blue light from the long axe in Xu Huang's hand, and a trace of coolness came to make Guan Yu frown, this feeling, is it the wind?
After Xu Huang awakened the Star Selector, his confidence soared, and he raised his axe to fight again, and with a light wave, he could see a strong wind sweeping in.
The whirlwind was mixed with dust, which made Guan Yu have to squint his eyes, and the strong wind made him move against the wind, very slowly, and the speed advantage of the previous attack was gone.
Xu Huang saw that Guan Yu's speed was restricted, and he was even more secretly happy in his heart, and he was chopped down with an axe. However, wisely, he did not choose to go closer to the past, but just cut down from afar. I saw a vague wind blade appear in the air, slashing straight towards Guan Yu.
Guan Yu snorted coldly, and slashed at the knife in both hands, scattering the wind blade in the air, but it was obvious that Guan Yu's hand was trembling slightly, no, to be precise, it should be the Qinglong Yanyue Knife trembling slightly.
Xu Huang was unforgiving, and rushed over again with a fierce attack, Guan Yu seemed to be at a disadvantage, and he just kept parrying.
Seeing this, Ma Chao, who was in the formation, asked anxiously: "Brother Liu Bei, I see that Brother Guan Yu can't support it, do you need to help?" ”
Before Liu Bei could speak, Zhang Fei on the side laughed: "Brother Ma Chao, don't worry, my second brother can't even stop me when he fights alone." ”
Ma Chao didn't believe Zhang Fei's words, but yesterday he saw Zhang Fei's bravery, and one person dared to rush into Cao's army to kill the Quartet, and he could fly more than a dozen people with a wave of his hand, and he could make the surroundings empty with a sweep. If Guan Yu can even fight such a powerful person, he really can't imagine it.
Besides, on the battlefield, Guan Yu defended again and again, and gradually figured out Xu Huang's offensive methods. In general, Xu Huang's wind control ability is not perfect, it can only be maintained around the long axe, and when attacking, the axe must be cut down first before the hurricane can be generated, which is equivalent to two attacks in one slash. As long as he times his attack well and keeps his axe from falling, the hurricane will not occur.
Now that he saw his ability clearly, Guan Yu no longer kept his hand. When Xu Huang's axe fell, when the hurricane had just appeared, a fine light flashed in Guan Yu's eyes, and he could vaguely see that the eyes of the green dragon on the green dragon glaive knife also lit up at the same time.
After that, in Xu Huang's shocked gaze, several extremely fast rays of light flashed, the long axe in his hand was cut off, the armor was shattered, and a terrifying wound appeared on his chest, and blood sprayed out as if he didn't want money. However, Xu Huang didn't feel the pain, because all this happened so fast, so fast that his pain nerves didn't keep up at all.
At this time, the hurricane that Xu Huang had slashed out before blew through Guan Yu's right side, and it didn't hurt him at all. The light in Guan Yu's eyes gradually dimmed, and the eyes of the green dragon on the knife also lost their luster.
With a "poof", Xu Huang fell from his horse, and the blood quickly stained the ground. Guan Yu also dismounted lightly, grabbed Xu Huang up, and saw that he had passed out in a coma, probably because the star selector was broken.
Guan Yu shouted loudly to the soldiers opposite: "Take your general back, and then go and tell Cao Cao that Runan City is already owned by my eldest brother!" ”
……
Cao Cao ruthlessly put the bamboo slips on the ground, and roared loudly: "You deceive people too much, Liu Bei, you deceive people too much." He really dared to occupy Runan City, and he dared to speak wildly. Very good, since you want Runan so much, then let you stay in Runan City for the rest of your life. ”
Guo Jia coughed lightly a few times on the side, and slowly spoke: "Lord, please calm your anger, I suspect that this is Liu Bei's deliberate agitation method, the purpose is to make you angry and lead the troops to attack it, and then they will take the opportunity to draw salaries from the bottom of the kettle and defeat us." ”
Cao Cao retracted his angry expression and said heavily: "What do you mean, Liu Bei deliberately lured me to kill him, and then ambushed us somewhere. If I really bring troops over, is it just his strategy? ”
"Well, yes, that's just one possibility. It could also be some other trick, but in short, you must not be rash and must be calm. ”
"Well, I see. So, what are we going to do now, really ignore them? ”
"Of course not, we should lead the troops to Runan City at this time, but don't rush to attack the city, we should use a delaying strategy to besiege them in the city, and we will respond to all changes with the same." Guo Jia suggested.
Cao Cao pondered for a long time, not knowing what he was thinking. Then he said, "Then do it." Also, last time I asked you to investigate the identity of that beauty, do you have any clues? ”
Guo Jiachang sighed, he wanted to take advantage of Liu Bei's matter to divert the lord's attention and hide it, because if the lord knew the identity of the girl, he would be more determined in his goal. Unexpectedly, now the lord actually remembered this stubble again, so he had to be entangled: "This, this ......"
Seeing that Guo Jia's expression was wrong, Cao Cao's eyes were cold: "Huh? How to divide it, what is the situation, say it quickly! ”
"Alas, well. Her identity has been found out through her star picker and her face. She, she is the Great Qiao of Soochow. Guo Jia could only helplessly tell Cao Cao the result.
"Oh, Big Joe, Big Joe...... What the! What did you say! She is Dongwu Da Qiao, the wife of the little overlord Sun Ce? Cao Cao hadn't reacted yet, and it dawned on him after he read it a few times.
Seeing the excited expression in Cao Cao's eyes, Guo Jia couldn't help but have a headache, and he didn't know whether he was right or wrong when he said it, his lord's favorite wife was well known, and once he knew that the girl was Da Qiao, he would not let her go.
Sure enough, Cao Cao suddenly stood up, his expression was very serious: "Now, we are ready to set off and take down the Xinye City, and we can't let Liu Bei run rampant anymore." ”
Guo Jia covered his forehead in pain, my lord, do you dare to make your goal more obvious, obviously you are running towards Da Qiao, and you are still talking about Liu Bei. And the most infuriating thing is that his suggestion just now was completely forgotten by him!
