VOLUME 5 CHAPTER 19: DON’T TELL ME THIS IS THE BATTLE OF GUANDU (11)

Meng De POV

Let me pose a question, how much power can a glaive possible have?

It could easily knock over a soldier, or several, and even slay a general in a single slash.

But I learned, right now, that a glaive could be used to stop an entire army numbering into the thousands.

“Ha!” An earth-splitting roar came from not far off as Yan Liang swung her glaive with full force. Several cries could be heard and an entire row of cavalry fell off their horses, their heads separated from their bodies.

Yan Liang. No matter how I look at her, she’s the great general of Hebei, Yan Liang.

But… Wasn’t she supposed to have died in combat?! Why is she here…

Could it be?! That Yan Liang didn’t die then? That Ben Chu, I can’t believe she still had such a card hidden at this stage.

“Big sis? Big sister!”

“Ah?” Hong yelled at me and I realised that I didn’t have the time to think about such things. And so I hurriedly spoke to Hong, “Hong, better be mentally prepared!”

“I don’t need you to tell me that!” Hong replied as she hurriedly followed and even overtook me.

“Decurion! Lend me your long spear!” I yelled out and received the decurion’s spear and spun it in my hands.

Yan Liang, if you think we’re going to be easy to deal with then you’re very, very wrong.

I’ll show you, the martial prowess of the Cao family!

Liu Bei POV

Guo Tu did indeed mutiny, and her troops had followed suit as well. And this mutiny of hers had caused the base camp which had less than 10,000 people to be instantly engulfed by chaos.

And I and Zi Long were here in the heart of the chaos because of my decision.

“Zi Long! Have you seen Ben Chu!?”

“Eh! She should have come this way!” Zi Long yelled back as she surveyed the chaos and searched for Ben Chu’s figure while simultaneously dealt with incoming enemies.

“Ha!!”

My eyes soon spotted the gorgeous figure in the distance.

Ben Chu was swinging her long spear as she weaved through the sea of people with her warhorse. She was quite a distance away but I could see from Ben Chu’s eyes that she was zeroing in on a target, and was directing bloodl.u.s.t at that target.

And not far ahead of Ben Chu was a frantic person in administrative official garb who was trying her best to direct her horse to leave this area as fast as possible.

“Zi Long! Over there!” I hurriedly pointed at Ben Chu for Zi Long.

“Xuan De, don’t do stupid things! Someone might cut off your arm.” Zi Long admonished me as she slapped my arm with the pole of her spear and pulled on the reins as she headed for the administrative official.

(TL: Son – “Mum, look, over there!”, Mother – “Keep your hands in the car!”)

“If I’m not wrong, that administrative official should be Guo Tu!”
