Chapter 32: The Scholar
On the hillside, the young man who had shot a Yellow Turban soldier to death just now frowned, and there was actually a Soul Refining Cultivator among the Yellow Turban thieves opposite. When did a Soul Refining Stream cultivator become so worthless, and he could come across one of them if he encountered a Yellow Turban thief?
Finding that there were no masters in the official army opposite, Gao Cheng urged the war horse to step forward, not that he was timid, but that there were countless strong people in the world, especially if there was chaos today, there were endless heroes who wanted to make contributions.
Cao Cao, Sun Jian, and Liu Bei, the three brothers, all joined the official army and Taiping Dao as enemies at this time, Gao Cheng was careful at this time, even if he encountered such a ruthless character, he could have a chance to escape.
At this time, after paying more than 200 troops, Gao Cheng and Zhang Chen finally attacked the front of the hillside with their swords and shields, only to see the Yellow Turban soldiers who rushed to the front shouting loudly, ready to cross the grain cart blocking them and go up the hillside.
This 1,000 officers and soldiers did not seem to have much combat experience, and when the enemy rushed in front of them, many of the soldiers were trembling, and their hands holding weapons were a little trembling, showing a panicked look.
"Don't panic, everyone, listen to my orders!" The pikemen stepped forward to resist the enemy, the archers supported in the back, and the grain carts stood in front, as long as everyone worked together, these Yellow Turban thieves would definitely not be able to rush forward!"
The young man with the bow shouted loudly. Under his mobilization, many officers and soldiers forcibly lifted their spirits, quickly stabbed the spears in their hands, and repelled the sword and shield men who rushed to the front of the grain truck......
Gao Cheng and Zhang Chen saw that the offensive was hindered in the back, and immediately roared angrily, rushed to the front in the lead, each waved the iron knife and spear in his hand, killed several officers and soldiers one after another, jumped onto the grain cart and fought at the cost of life and death, and opened a gap.
"Damn the thief!" A trace of anger appeared on the face of the young man with the bow, and he drew a feather arrow and shot it quickly, the streamer roared out, and a strong wind swept through the air, and flew quickly in the direction where Zhang Chen was.
"Zhang Chen, bow your head quickly!" Gao Cheng saw this scene, his pupils contracted suddenly, and he immediately shouted, urging the war horse to speed up, and slammed into the gap opened by the two.
As soon as Zhang Chen pulled the spear back from the chest of an officer and soldier in front of him, he heard Gao Cheng's voice coming, his expression changed, and he lowered his head without thinking.
"How is that possible?" exclaimed the young man with the bow, his expression changed. He thought that this arrow would definitely shoot the Yellow Turban Thief on the opposite side as before, but he didn't expect the foolproof long arrow to miss under the timely dodge of the other party.
Zhang Chen walked around the ghost gate, and his heart palpitated, if it weren't for his obedience to Gao Cheng's orders, he would not be able to escape death this time, he hurriedly recruited a few sword and shield hands to protect him, so as not to encounter a secret arrow sneak attack by the archer again.
"Get out of the way, everybody!"
Gao Cheng in the rear had already rushed to the front at this time, roared, pulled out the long sword at his waist, pulled the reins with his left hand and forced, and took advantage of this opportunity to rush directly through the gap that Zhang Chen had killed.
The war horse galloped wildly, with an impact force of thousands of catties, and it was extremely violent. The long sword in Gao Cheng's hand seemed to have indestructible power, and with a flash of sword light, he saw blood springs flying, and more than a dozen officers and soldiers fell to the ground screaming.
After rushing into the hillside, Gao Cheng locked on the young man with the bow with his eyes, and the war horse galloped wildly, and the officers and soldiers in front of it were like broken sacks, and they were knocked out of the distance, and they didn't know how many bones were broken.
Shoot the man first and shoot the horse, and capture the thief first and capture the king. In less than the blink of an eye, Gao Cheng rushed to the front of the young man with the bow.
The young man with the bow kept retreating, and the longbow in his hand quickly shot out feather arrows, and shot a rain of arrows with the strength of one person.
"Your Excellency is good at archery, but unfortunately the strength is not good, and it is a little less powerful!" Gao Cheng laughed, and exerted the strengthened eyesight and mastery-level basic swordsmanship to the limit, and while galloping on the horse, the long sword left and right blocked all the long arrows that came from it.
Without waiting for the other party to react, the long sword in his hand turned into a match, twisted and twitched, and the young man with the bow felt a powerful force coming, and the longbow in his hand flew into the air uncontrollably.
As Gao Cheng expected, the young man with the bow in front of him was not weak in spirit, but he didn't practice much in the body refining method, and his body was now only in the realm of inner strength at the first level of training.
A Soul Refining Stream cultivator who has not reached the sixth level of soul cultivation is not an opponent of a second-level martial artist who has cultivated strength in a head-to-head battle.
"Stop!" Gao Cheng put the long sword in his hand on the shoulder of the young man with the bow, and suddenly the many officers and soldiers who were ready to come over to besiege threw their weapons and did not dare to move.
As soon as the young man with the bow saw a flower in front of him, he fell into the hands of the Yellow Turban Thief, and his face suddenly turned red, and he was extremely ashamed.
His gaze flashed with determination, and he grabbed the blade of his sword and slashed at his neck. At the same time, he yelled, "Leave me alone, everyone continues to attack, and we must not let the Yellow Turban Thieves attack the hillside!"
Gao Cheng was shocked, he didn't expect this scholar to be so hard, his wrist flicked, the long sword was withdrawn instantly, and then he stepped forward and clasped the other party's arm. Use force to forcibly suppress the opponent.
Seeing that the leader was captured, the morale of these officers and soldiers was suddenly on the verge of collapse, and when Gao Tai saw this, he hurriedly led his subordinates to join Zhang Chen and attack the hillside together.
In less than half an hour, a thousand officers and soldiers were routed. It was a big win. There was no technical content in the whole battle, Gao Cheng relied on the impact of the war horse and the suppression of strength, defeated the leader of the official army, and destroyed the opponent's command system.
With such a huge advantage, the horizontal push is naturally invincible.
Gao Tai led his men to besiege the entire hillside, captured seven or eight hundred officers and soldiers, and received more than a dozen carts of grain and grass. And after Gao Cheng defeated this group of officers and soldiers, the fate point directly exceeded three thousand. The harvest is not small.
"It was really rude just now, in Xia Guangling Gao Cheng, may I ask Your Excellency's surname?"
The young man with the bow saw that his men were not slaughtered after being captured, his face couldn't help but soften a lot, and when he saw that the other party asked for his name according to the family etiquette, Rao was full of resentment, and he had to bow and answer: "In Xiaxiangcheng Li Xuan, is Your Excellency also a child of the family?"
The Li clan in Xiangcheng: This is a first-class scholar clan second only to the eight great families in the world! However, this family has suffered a great calamity and is now in decline. But it is still a famous county in Yuzhou.
Gao Cheng laughed and laughed at himself slightly: "It's just a cold family, it's not a family! The Li family in Xiangcheng is the real famous family!"
Li Xuan couldn't hold back the anger in his heart, stared at Gao Cheng and asked, "Since Your Excellency is also a child of the family, why did you take refuge in the Yellow Turban Thieves and still be enemies of the official army?
Gao Cheng couldn't help but show a wry smile, looked around and no one else noticed, and then said helplessly: "If I say that I was also coerced by the Yellow Turban Soldiers, can Brother Li believe it?"
