C153 (2/2)

”F * ck, you specifically came to bully laozi.” Release Arrows... ”Release the arrows …”

Seeing the xanthopanax rushing towards his position, Qian Lin was immediately enraged. He shouted hysterically and ordered the soldiers to shoot quickly. Those xanthopanax soldiers, under Qian Lin's lead, unceasingly and crazily pulled on their bowstrings, shooting arrows after arrows at the army officers.

”Kill …”

The officials of the imperial court finally pounced on him, and the face-to-face battle of the white blades began. In this type of battle, one person's martial arts could no longer be used. All that was left was to desperately slash and kill. One could only hear the sounds of blades colliding and the constant screams of misery.

The imperial army was indeed very brave and well-trained. Even though people continued to fall, and layers upon layers of corpses blocked the path forward, and there was not even a place to land where the fierce battle would take place, they still fearlessly surged upwards, wave after wave, like the tides of the ocean; there was simply no end to it.

From a distance, Zhang Bao could see that Qian Lin had personally charged in front and killed six or seven people. He had also been cut twice by his opponent, and fresh blood flowed all over his body.

Zhang Bao stood on his horse and quietly watched the imperial court officers and soldiers's charge. Due to Qian Lin's bravery, his defense was still considered stable, but the attacks were too concentrated, causing Qian Lin's soldiers to suffer too many casualties.

”Second brother, I'm afraid Qian Lin can't hold on.”

Zhang Liang whispered into Zhang Bao's ear. Even before the formation was set up, Zhang Liang was still worried about Qian Lin. Qian Lin had the least number of subordinates under Zhang Jiao, so he was suspicious of their fighting strength, so he made them defend in a small area with a lot of troops. He thought that since this Qian Lin was also a great general, he wouldn't collapse no matter what.

”Retreat, slash!”

Qian Lin howled as he slashed a retreating soldier. However, no matter how Qian Lin shouted, he was unable to stop the soldiers under him from retreating, soldiers who had lost their courage would not be able to recover just by relying on killing two people. As the saying goes, a soldier losing is like a mountain falling, once a soldier is defeated, even deities would rarely be able to control themselves.

Zhang Bao who had been observing everything from the start had a bad look on his face. The array of hundreds of thousands of people was more than five kilometers wide, and it was not something that could be moved easily. Once the array was moved, it would cause chaos and allow the imperial army to grab the opportunity.

”Order them to immediately send reinforcements to Qian Lin.”

Zhang Bao ordered expressionlessly. As the xanthopanax had set up an offensive formation, they left Lu Tong and the other offensive generals to be placed at the back of the formation. They would not use them unless it was an all-out attack, but now that Qian Lin's position was broken, they had no choice but to send them out.

”Yuan Shu, attack now!”

Seeing that he had already opened the gap in the Imperial army, Huangfu Song immediately saw that it was an opportunity. At the same time, he also realised that the positions on both sides of the gap were weak, and ordered the second team to rush towards the gap, in an attempt to defeat the xanthopanax in one fell swoop.

”All soldiers, prepare to attack!” Order the cavalry of Youzhou to prepare to attack. ”

Huangfu Song was a little excited, he issued a series of orders, as if victory was already beckoning to him. They had already ordered Gongsun Zan, Liu Bei and the rest to lead the third group to prepare themselves. Once the first two teams succeeded, they would start from here and completely annihilate the xanthopanax team.

”Kill …”

Jiang Zhen, who was beside Qian Lin, was also under attack. The number of soldiers under his command was obviously more than Qian Lin's soldiers. He roared and led the soldiers into a fight. Although the soldiers of the xanthopanax lacked training, they still had the courage to fight to the death when the time came.

Soon enough, Jiang Zhen felt the pressure. Under the attacks of the xanthopanax, the soldiers under him started to slowly retreat, but luckily they had more people on their side, making them stronger than Qian Lin in defense. In that moment, even the imperial army would have a hard time breaking through.

Just as they were desperately holding on, the reinforcements they had led arrived. The attacks of the troops were much stronger and they numbered more than the others. They shouted and rushed up to the incoming army, and in that moment, both sides were in a deadlock at Qian Lin's position.

Imperial army who was currently attacking xanthopanax, when he met any xanthopanax who could charge and kill him, immediately split up and deal with them. However, the number of troops was simply too many. No matter how the imperial government attacked, the troops were still very stable. Even if there were one or two casualties, they would not disperse.

”Kill …”

Just at this moment, Yuan Shu's team also came up, the surging army of the imperial government quickly rushed towards the attack team of the xanthopanax like a flood, wherever the flood rushed, the formation of the xanthopanax was torn apart, the soldiers of the xanthopanax being split apart one by one, they were once again surrounded, then annihilated on the spot, and rushed forward again, leaving behind only a bunch of corpses.

The imperial army brandished their swords and spears as they rampaged through the soldiers of xanthopanax, as if they were no one else. They chased after the soldiers of xanthopanax like tigers and wolves, and there was not a single xanthopanax soldier who could survive a single round.
