Mythical Three Kingdoms

Before Lyu Bu could bring his halberd smashing down toward Guan Yu and Xuu Chu, a flurry of arrows had already been shot in Lyu Bu’s direction, with a thin Cloud Qi from the vanguard enveloping him while even more arrows rained in from all directions.

”General, fall back! Lyu Bu’s ambush army is approaching!” Jiang Gong bellowed, ”Yuanshao has already sent for reinforcements!”

Although Guan Yu was initially embarrassed by his own soldiers’ lack of discipline, upon hearing Jiang Gong’s words and seeing the considerable cavalry coming from Lyu Bu’s rear army on both sides, he immediately realized that what Jiang Gong said was true.

”Let’s go!” Guan Yu nodded to Jiang Gong, then roared at Xuu Chu.

”Order the troops on both wings to advance; have the Central Army form up for defense and wait for reinforcements!” Guan Yu commanded his trusted aides after pulling back the vanguard.

However, in the next moment, Guan Yu saw his own left and right wings crumble almost without resistance after being attacked by the enemy’s ambush, and then the enemy drove straight through, piercing both wings and plunging into the Central Army.

”How is this possible?” Guan Yu watched in shock at the two cavalry units.

”School Sabre Bearers, heed my command. Lead the cavalry to block the left wing!” Guan Yu ordered loudly, knowing that if the enemy cavalry were to break through both wings and then pierce the Central Army with a pincer attack from front and rear, then his great army could only disintegrate.

”Yes, sir!” Jiang Gong shouted, leading five hundred School Sabre Bearers to attack the left wing.

”Zhongkang, block Zhang Wenyuan for me!” Guan Yu ordered, pointing toward the right wing.

”Tiger Guard, follow me!” Xuu Chu roared, leading the Tiger Guard toward Zhang Liao’s position.

It wasn’t long before Jiang Gong and the School Sabre Bearers collided with Hao Meng. Although Hao Meng was slightly stronger, it wasn’t easy for him to defeat Jiang Gong amidst the clashing Cloud Qi. Moreover, Gao Shun’s two hundred Trap Formation troops allocated to Hao Meng’s rear were also tied down by the School Sabre Bearers and a large force of infantry and cavalry. Despite their superior combat power, the trap formation troops were forced to retreat step by step by the Sabre Bearers, barely checking the otherwise unstoppable Trap Formation charge.

”Thud!” Xuu Chu swung his blade toward Zhang Liao, only to see Zhang Liao parry with his Long Spear, sliding away as if untouched by the force. Zhang Liao’s few remaining Trap Formation troops also clashed with Xuu Chu’s Tiger Guard.

After exchanging several dozen moves with Xuu Chu, Zhang Liao breathed a sigh of relief seeing his Trap Formation start to press the Tiger Guard. The biggest advantage of a special unit was to unexpectedly break the enemy’s formation, then create opportunities for regular troops to directly rip through the enemy, expanding their victory.

”Damn it!” Xuu Chu engaged Zhang Liao while surveying the surroundings, incredulous at the enemy soldiers’ formidable strength. His own Tiger Guard actually required two or three men just to hold back one enemy! Were these truly mere soldiers?

Guan Yu led his forces into a defensive formation and fought desperately to block Lyu Bu, but in just a short time, several points of defense were already faltering; no one could hold back Lyu Bu, who led his cavalry in a fierce assault from left to right, especially with such a vast gap in morale between the two sides!
