C116 (1/2)
The four generals standing in front of the xanthopanax array looked at each other. They knew that the generals were here to challenge them, but none of them wanted to go out and accept the challenge. Zhao Hong had been tired for a long time, and was lazy to even move. Sun Zhong knew that his martial arts were not as good as Qin Ming's and Qin Liang's, and he did not dare to show off. As for Qin Ming, Qin Liang did not want to fight with the officials either.
After waiting for a long while, when no one came out to fight, Sun Jian actually scolded loudly in front of the array, humiliating General of the Yellow Scarf Army. Qin Ming thought that if he did not fight, how could he explain it to Zhang Mancheng when he got back? However, when Qin Liang saw that Qin Ming was about to go, he flattered him and rushed out first.
”Watch me fight you.”
The two of them did not exchange names and went up to fight. The two of them were both men with large sabers, and they both possessed superb kung fu skills. Their sabers flew up high in the air with a cold light shining from them, outshining even the afterglow of the setting sun.
Qin Liang initially did not want to fight with the generals of the imperial government, but due to the circumstances, he had no choice but to fight with them. Who would have thought that this Sun Jian would be so vicious? His blade was as tight as a knife, causing Qin Liang to burn, and an icy cold killing intent flashed from his eyes.
”Die.”
Qin Liang suddenly roared out, the double knife in his hands shot out like lightning, and an ear-piercing sound of something tearing through the air rang out.
Dong …
The two steel knives smashed into each other, causing an intense collision to resound through the clouds. A strong rebound spread across his entire body, shaking both of Sun Jian's arms until they were numb. Sun Jian who had always thought of himself as Wu Yong suddenly felt a bit of fear. This fellow's martial arts and strength were far above his, how could there be such a character in xanthopanax?
”General.”
”I am Qin Liang.”
Qin Liang roared towards the sky, urging his horse to rush forward, a berserk killing intent surged, the double knife flew up and down, cold light overflowing everywhere. At this point in time, Sun Jian felt that he had met a dangerous opponent, the other party's double knife s were like ghosts that were entangled in his body, unable to leave his vital parts, and their blades were all on his fatal ones. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Sun Jian was already at a disadvantage. He only had the ability to resist, and losing was only a matter of time.
”Kill …”
Following the explosive shout, Qin Liang's double knife fiercely slashed at the top of Sun Jian's head. In that moment of desperation, Sun Jian welcomed it with his blade and let out a loud crash.
”Hui …”
Sun Jian's war horse let out a long hiss, and consecutively retreated more than ten steps, before shaking and stopping, almost throwing Sun Jian off his horse.
”Puff …”
The drowsy Sun Jian held onto the horse's mane tightly, his blurry eyes looking over the General of the Yellow Scarf Army in front. He saw the sun setting in the west, and suddenly, his chest swelled up as he spat out a mouthful of blood.
”The thief will leave now.”
Zhao Yun who was spectating from the side saw that Sun Jian was about to lose, without much thought, he rushed forward to fight.
Qin Ming, who was very confident in his little brother, watched the battle easily. Suddenly, he saw Zhao Yun rushing towards him, without saying a word, he urged his horse to ride, and blocked Zhao Yun with his blade.
As the two weapons clashed, a ”bang” sound was heard. It was as if a thunderclap had sounded out on a sunny day. Both of their arms went numb as both of them sighed in their hearts. They couldn't help but become cautious as they attacked with their sabers and spears, slashing left and right, killing to the point where they couldn't be separated.
After walking for more than a hundred rounds, Zhao Yun's heart was already filled with murmurs. What a powerful General of the Yellow Scarf Army, I have to report to my big brother immediately, I can't let him escape.
Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun's faces were extremely serious, Sun Jian was undoubtedly heavily injured, although Yang Lin's army was at a draw against the xanthopanax's army, if they were to continue fighting, the outcome of the battle would be uncertain. The two of them looked at each other and nodded.
”Dang, dang, dang, dang …”
Both sides returned back to their own formation. Sun Jian walked in front of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun with a regretful look on his face. Unexpectedly, Huangfu Song laughed and waved his hand nonchalantly.
”Don't mind me, it's not surprising that the Yellowtowel rebel has a few tyrants. Watch as my Imperial army breaks the Thief Formation.”
On the other hand, in front of the xanthopanax Formation, Qin Ming and Qin Liang had returned triumphantly like a hero. Zhao Hong and Sun Zhong could clearly see that the two generals of the imperial court were no match for each other, but Qin Ming was even more powerful if he was able to fight evenly, and actually beat his opponent to the point of spitting blood.
”Howl …”
In the army formation, the unpleasant sound of Bullhorn blowing could be heard, the low and deep wails echoed in the Nanyang.
This was the official army launching an attack. Both sides of the government army had begun to shrink, and the forward part of the army was protruding out like a cone. Right after that was the sound of war drums. The soldiers stepped on the drums, holding onto their pikes, they stabbed towards a sharp arrow s, towards Yellow Scarves' Great Formation.
Facing such a strong army, Zhao Hong and Sun Zhong's hearts couldn't help but feel a little nervous. They had not actually fought against the soldiers, but even so, they had already lined up in a formation, so they took it for granted that the Lance Soldier was in front and behind the Lance Soldier was the archer. This was what Zhao Hong had paid a price of blood for when he fought with Zhao Yun's cavalrymen.
However, they did not panic today, which was a rare occurrence in the history of the xanthopanax. Because they had two generals, which were Qin Ming and Qin Liang. Among these untrained soldiers, the military prowess of the generals was the source of their confidence. As long as the general was still alive, the soldiers would follow him closely. Once the general fell, it would truly be like a tree falling and monkeys scattering. No matter how many people there were, they would all collapse.
