“Impossible! How can this be!” Said Lei Bo with disbelieve look while holding his neck.
“I am not dead yet?!” Liu Mang do not felt ice-cold of death but instead he heard Lei Bo voice, full of resentment. Liu Mang raise his body slowly and found out that Lei Bo dead with his neck pierced, then he smiled bitterly “Oh, he is the one who dead!”
On one of the horn of Aries gold cloth, there is a bone mixed with flesh, is this larynx bone?
That is correct, the one who die is not Liu Mang, but Lei Bo. Just like we tell you from previous chapter, when Lei Bo want to unleash his mortal strike, Liu Mang reflexively evaded it and ram him. Even though his speed cannot be compared with Lei Bo who is experienced in battle, but Liu Mang is wearing Aries gold cloth, with horn on each side of his breasts. So, that is how Aries gold cloth skewer Lei Bo's neck.
Lei Bo thought he has won, but his luck run out, when Liu Mang ramming him, stabbing him in the neck with his armor.
“No, no, no, no, second king died?! SECOND KING DIED!!!” Chen Lan Army already lost morale when seeing Lei Bo has fallen near Liu Mang and began their retreat.
“What? Lei Bo dead?!” Asked Chen Lan who right now inside the main army. Chen Lan ordered Lei Bo to be the vanguard while he stayed in main army, holding down Lu Bu main army. Right now, he has not yet descend the mountain, already received bad news. Lei Bo dead!
“Who, Who in Lu Bu army managed to kill Lei Bo?! Is there any mighty generals again in mountain feet?!” Inquired Chen Lan, now he is really angry and surprised, he even coerced his messenger with sword.
“No, No. Only one general, his name is Liu Mang!” Messenger replied nervously. Their great king's attitude have scared them stiff.
“Liu Mang? Who the hell was that?!” Chen Lan start to recall again. “Lu Bu Army previously have eight superior generals, but no one have a name of Liu Mang!”
“That general is the golden-armored man who we saw on guard outpost earlier!”
“Golden-armored people?!” Chen Lan brow wrinkled, he thinks that golden-armored people is only Lu Bu army's VIP, one of his family. Never once he thought that this golden-armored man is a senior general ,which Lu Bu put him on purpose, able to kill Lei Bo.
Regarding Lei Bo, Chen Lan still sad but did not too deep, as if he is just losing a regular general. Also regarding Lei Bo's skills, Chen Lan admit that Lei Bo is strong and he is a good commander. If that golden-armored man can kill Lei Bo, that alone explain one thing, that man is strong.
If Liu Mang knews what Chen Lan is thinking, he will definitely thanked profusely!
If Lei Bo and himself fighting against Liu Mang, then Liu Mang will definitely be chopped into pieces, but that stupid Lei Bo, too proud of himself and now costing him his life. In the battlefield, the tide can change instantaneously, for example, how do you think Guan Yu able to slay Yan Liang and Wen Chou in one blow? Both of their strength and prowess are comparable to Guan Yu at that time, the difference is they both looked down and underestimate Guan Yu. They are senior generals in Yuan Shao army, how their prowess can be compared with one guest / captured general? And in that moment, they perished by one blow.
“General, you are mighty! General, you are mighty!!!” Liu Mang has killed Lei Bo, of course his own unit's morale will rise up to the top. If Liu Mang at one point is happy but now, he can only show bitter smile.
“Second elder brother, how can we surrender, seeing you dead like this?!” Liu Mang has killed Lei Bo, but Lei Bo's own troops have not died. Their master dead, killed by Liu Mang, so they are glaring angrily at Liu Mang. Personal bodyguards are usually treated as family by their general, so their loyalty will be very deep.
They are now very much want to kill Liu Mang, but actually also afraid of Liu Mang strength. But now with Liu Mang's cavalry batallion, those 2,500 troops of Lei Bo's personal guards began expressing again killing intent.
“Great King has ordered, whole vanguard to charge, to retreat is to live, also whoever kill golden-armored people will have position of third king!” Screamed Zhang Kai. Lei Bo has died, naturally Zhang Kai must assume command. Chen Lan also wanted Zhang Kai to lead his cavalry division, but he can only give him position as third king.
“SHA, SHA, SHAAAAA!” Chen Lan army who has surrounded Liu Mang began to move again, because of the merit given by Chen Lan himself.
“Revenge for second king!!!”
“Revenge for second king, KILL HIM!!!”
“Third king position is mine!”
