Three Kingdoms: I don’t want to fall in love in troubled times

Chapter 224 Towards the golden mist (Happy Chinese New Year)

Clang——

The swords crossed each other, sparks burst out, and an unreasonable brute force was transmitted from the sword body to his arm. Xu Jiashu couldn't help but take a few steps back and waved his hands to relieve the soreness and numbness.

He raised his eyes and looked at Yan Liang.

The man has a broad face and short beard, and the armor he put on in a hurry is a bit messy. Sweat is dripping from his beard. White air is exhaled in between breaths, mixed with the thick morning mist. His face is red, as if he has not been so excited for a long time, and his whole body is full of blood. The fighting spirit is extremely strong.

So strong.

Although in the previous simulation, Lu Bu, who became impatient because of Lu Lingqi, was defeated by bullying, but the simulation record was uploaded, and the battle process can only be known from the description, and it is impossible to experience it personally.

Calculated in this way, among the generals who fought against each other in reality, Ma Chao in his childhood and Gan Ning in his growth stage were already ceiling-level figures. However, after all, they were far from reaching the peak of physical and experience. They were completely different from Yan Liangshang who appeared on the stage. animal.

To use a numerical analogy, the force value of a strong man like Yan Liang who is rampant in a state is probably 90 or more, and he is positioned as a first-line military general and goalkeeper. Gan Ning, Ma Chao, Lu Lingqi and others are currently in the range of around 85.

Compared with Gan Ning who has [Night Combat Specialization] and [Super High Stamina], Ma Chao who has [Family Marksmanship] and [Qiang Hu Affinity], and Lu Lingqi [Divine Arrow], Yan Liang's characteristics are much more plain and simple.

Without even knowing the location of the target, the decapitation tactic is a castle in the air.

Especially since Guan Yu was sitting at the rear, it was even more difficult to know the exact locations of Yan Liang and Xu Jiashu. If he rushed in rashly, even Guan Yu would be hard-pressed to guarantee that he would escape unscathed in front of Yuan Jun's camp.

It is said that there is no need to talk about moral principles in dealing with such evil heretics. He naturally arranged a back-up to suppress the battle. Liu Bei was busy taking over the army in Yecheng and making complete preparations for Lu Zhi's possible death, but it was no problem to borrow Guan Yu.

It has to be said that to deal with a reckless man like Yan Liang, who has high attack and low defense, it is still necessary to shut down the second master and directly use the burst to kill him. Not giving him a chance to gain momentum is the best solution.

There is no complicated formula for swinging the sword. With his natural strength, he uses a wide range of battle formations. It is simple and practical. Every blow on the body makes people feel that the bones are vibrating. Most people just chop melons and vegetables.

Even with the blessing of [Wushuang], Xu Jiashu could easily keep up with his movements, and even make gestures to relieve his strength in advance, but he was still beaten hard - this is not an action game, with perfect parries or invincible frames. Things still hurt when they should.

Putting on the defensive to parry, he glanced behind him from the corner of his eye.

From his perspective, that opportunity has obviously not appeared so far.

As long as Guan Yunchang launches an attack, everything will be fine!

Time passed little by little, but the upright figure never appeared. Xu Jiashu gradually lost his composure and found it difficult to maintain Ming Jing Zhishui's state of mind - No, where is I, Guan Yu?

According to the prior arrangement, Guan Yu was mainly responsible for keeping an eye on Tang Ji and protecting her safety. If there was an opportunity to behead Yan Liang, he would then decide whether to attack. After all, no one knew whether Yan Liang would take the initiative to go out to fight.

Just imagine, a nine-foot giant man carries the Qinglong Yanyue Sword weighing eighty-two kilograms, and he also needs to have unexpected maneuverability. Ordinary war horses can only sprint a short distance at most, so before using the beheading tactic, Guan Yu must first fight with The target must be close enough.

Unless he is matched with a top divine horse in the world - such as Red Rabbit or something like that, long-distance running is only possible.

the other side.

【Brave】

And although Guan Yu was at the peak of his personal combat power at this time (in the later period, he was at the peak of military strategy, and the two were staggered), he was always troubled by the problem of mounts - ordinary mounts could hardly support the tactic of taking the lead in an army that he was good at.

It was still early when Xu Jiashu led his men to test the reality, and soon after the retreat, Yan Liang decisively launched a countercharge. As a result, although the morning fog showed signs of thinning, the situation on the shore was still difficult to see clearly.

After dozens of moves, Xu Jiashu was sweating profusely - he had plenty of combat experience, and even had the same warrior mentality as Lu Bu. In terms of technique, he was even better than Yan Liang, but there was no panacea for his physical fitness that could improve him by leaps and bounds in a short period of time. Facing the opponent's no-frills chops, if you can catch it, you can catch it. If you can't catch it, you can only wait for death.

For example, when Qingzhou killed Zhang Rao, the Yellow Turban Qushuai, Guan Yu sneaked in while Zhang Fei was attracting attention, recharged his energy for a period of time before taking action, and killed him with one blow.

The first problem is morning fog.

But Xu Jiashu has no way out now. Yan Liang's character is known for "catching narrow people" and loves to kill everyone. Once he escapes here, his soldiers will be slaughtered in the heavy fog. In order to get closer to the simulation target, I chose to stay in Guandong and start from scratch this time. If I lose all the capital to start a business, it will be difficult later.

This is how to do?

He didn't engage in a duel with you at all, he just waved his sword and struck hard at you. Yan Liang's attacks continued like this, one sword after another, and with the advantage of the long sword, you could only parry. , there is no room for counterattack.

When neither of these two conditions are met, Guan Yu naturally chooses to wait and see. This is also his usual practice. If there is no chance, he will find a place to hide first to save his mount. consumption.

He raised his head and glanced at the river bank. The morning sun had already poked out a golden edge, dyeing the morning mist orange-red. In a short while, when the mist dissipated a little more, Xu Zimao's position would probably be clearly visible.

But some people can't wait any longer.

While Guan Yu was looking at the river bank from a distance, Tang Rou moved forward quietly. She was about to leave this boring little slope. Guan Yu only took a few steps to catch up with her. He blocked her way with his sword, "Zimao and a certain family I’ve told you not to let you run around.”

"I'm not running around!" With the Qinglong Yanyue Sword in front of her, Tang Rou just shrank her neck slightly, then straightened up again, pointing to the carriageway down the slope: "I can't see anything here, I want to go back !”

Which song is this from?

Guan Yu had a look of helplessness on his face. He committed murder and fled when he was young. He went to Zhuoxian County and joined the local hero Liu Xuande. From then on, he basically only mixed society and went to the battlefield. He stayed in the monk temple for a long time and had no idea what women were thinking.

The same goes for Zi Mao. In the past, it was enough to bring a female general. After all, his archery skills were really amazing. Now he is leading a weak woman on the battlefield. Isn't this nonsense? What else would such a well-known lady do besides cause trouble?

"Okay then, a certain family will take you down."

Guan Yu thought for a moment and chose to compromise - something was wrong with the situation at the moment, and it was not impossible to send this troublesome woman away quickly, so as not to cause trouble because of her later when the opportunity arose.

Women will only affect the speed of my sword swing!

"it is good!"

Tang Rou nodded obediently, as if the person who angrily accused Guan Yu of sitting on the sidelines in the previous chapter was not herself. The saying that changing one's face is faster than turning the page in a book was talking about her now.

Guan Yu frowned, always feeling that something was fishy, ​​but being on the battlefield, he couldn't think too much about it, so he sent Tang Rou down the slope and told several servants who were servants, "This is the wife of your other Sima, please be careful." Don’t neglect your care.”

lady

Tang Rou didn't defend herself when she heard this, but she secretly thought that her aunt had risked her life this time. Let alone a mere lady, even Xu Zimao's mother might not be able to do it!

After placing the obstructive woman, Guan Yu turned around and could finally concentrate on observing the battlefield situation.

The sun continued to rise, and through the morning mist, he could see a hazy golden egg rising on the horizon on the river bank, which reflected the air with a warm golden color. Guan Yu was refreshed - the time was almost up!

He gently urged the war horse under his crotch and carefully moved towards the fighting area. Only when he encountered the enemy approaching, he calmly swung the cold saw. But even so, there were still too many noises on the battlefield.

The so-called not knowing the true face of Mount Lu is just because we are in this mountain.

Just like being on the top of Lushan Mountain, where there is perennial fog, once you enter the fog, it is difficult to stay awake to your location. In order to preserve the strength of his mount, Guan Yu can only move forward slowly and patiently.

Reinforcements were not arriving for a long time. Xu Jiashu became increasingly impetuous and gradually lost his composure during the fight.

Feeling that the airtight defense was finally showing signs of wavering, Yan Liang was overjoyed and rallied - God knows where this person came from. He looked like a young man who had just been crowned, but his movements seemed to have been immersed in martial arts. A lifelong old man.

None of the moves worked in front of him. It was usually a sidestep or a release of strength, and Yan Liang's tried and tested punches were melted into the invisible.

And when Yan Liang tried to sell a flaw and prepared to trade his injuries for his life, this person had never been fooled. Even if the flaw was so good that his back was exposed, he would not be tempted at all, if he did not have an absolute advantage in strength. , he has absolutely no confidence to continue fighting.

How about running away first?

This thought came to Xu Jiashu's mind. Anyway, we are not the protagonist of an invincible novel. It doesn't seem to be a big deal if we are deflated occasionally. If we can stay useful and return to Anding County, we may not be able to make a comeback. "Xu——Zi——Mao!"

Tang Ji's name shouted at the top of her lungs rang out on the battlefield, and Xu Jiashu's heart suddenly tightened - wasn't she supposed to be with Guan Yu, why did she run out without permission?

I have never seen such an unstable wife!

Just when everyone except Xu Jiashu was wondering where the woman's voice came from on the battlefield, a carriage was rushing through the thinning morning mist. Tang Rou was holding the reins with both hands, her little face flushed with excitement.

"Xu——Ah!!!" A soldier's figure suddenly appeared in front of her. She stiffened and closed her eyes. After a while, she opened her eyes again, only to find that the gun-wielding figure had disappeared without a trace.

"Eh?" Tang Rou made an unclear and harsh voice. She rushed over so easily? It doesn't seem to be difficult. As expected, fighting is a very fun thing as the book says.

Unlike Guan Yu who was approaching slowly, although she was in a panic, she still held the reins tightly with both hands and never let go. She allowed the two horses in front of her to move straight forward. The flat terrain on the north bank of the Huan River made it difficult for the horse to move forward. Become a worthy road killer, with the help of the cover of morning mist, destroy those you target and kill those you hit.

If a scholar-official from the Spring and Autumn Period saw the current scene, he might not be able to help but be eager to try it - isn't this the ideal car battle? vYou have 50 knives (referring to knife coins), let me play with this one.

This extremely retro "chariot" was making a lot of noise. Carrying the shouting Tang Rou, it became the biggest variable on the battlefield, dragging two bloody ruts as it rushed toward the center.

"Xu——Zi——Mao!"

The sound was getting closer and closer, and Xu Jiashu and Yan Liang, who were fighting fiercely, couldn't help but look at where they came from at the same time.

Through the golden mist, four horse legs with afterimages appeared first, followed by the strong horse belly - which was still stained with the blood of an unknown unlucky person. The two good horses seemed to fall from the sky, announcing the end to the world. Coming like a Pegasus.

If the Apocalypse Knight above is not Tang Rou, that is indeed the case.

"How did you come?"

Xu Jiashu was about to cry but had no tears. This aunt was really focused on being unorganized and undisciplined!

In the boss battle that was originally unbeatable, an NPC suddenly appeared and needed to be protected. Anyone would have thrown the controller angrily. Looking at Tang Rou's slender body, her only purpose might be to perform a set of gangster excitement punches on Yan Liang. Added buff.

"Come to save you!" Things went surprisingly smoothly, Tang Rou declared confidently, "Wait until I get rid of this big fat guy first!"

After saying that, he waved his whip vigorously and rushed towards Yan Liang.

Big. Big fat guy?

Yan Liang frowned, holding the sword in both hands and holding his breath, silently estimating the distance between the two sides.

Tang Rou is not a professional charioteer, or to put it bluntly, since she kicked the original charioteer off the carriage, she has hardly done any effective operation except holding the reins tightly to prevent herself from falling.

The carriage continued to move forward along a straight route. Yan Liang stepped aside for a moment, shouted loudly, and made a horizontal slash from the side, cutting off one of the horses in half - let you see the power of the big fat man!

The carriage instantly lost its balance, and Tang Rou, who was sitting on it, suddenly flew to the other side. Seeing this, Xu Jiashu rushed over and hugged her.

There was no slow play, no 360-degree rotation, and no unspoken glances at each other. The two fell to the ground together. If the carriage hadn't fallen in the middle and blocked Yan Liang's route, I'm afraid he would have been easily hit, and both of them were furious. killed.

"It hurts." Tang Rou stood up from Xu Jiashu's arms, rubbed her butt and groaned, then stretched out her hand to pull him up, "Are you okay?"

Something happened, and it was something big!

"Go quickly." Xu Jiashu didn't care about anything else. He stood up and pointed at the mount behind him. "Ride it back to Guan Yu and ask him to bring people. You must not let this thief go."

"But."

"There is no but," Tang Rou wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Xu Jiashu, "Your life is more important than anything else, do you understand?"

To be fair, there is no water in this statement at all. As the simulation object, once Tang Ji died, the simulation was immediately scrapped. She got nothing except a single duel failure. The entire 7 simulations were exchanged for a little bit of meager combat experience. Even if Xu Jiashu has no shortage of times now, he cannot accept this result.

"." When Tang Rou heard this, her expression was startled. Looking at Xu Jiashu's serious look, she was actually a little crazy.

I wish I had heard this earlier.

Liu Bian was a young couple with her, but his last words before his death were just to ask her not to remarry, and to live peacefully as a deposed queen and a widow that no one cared about.

Her father gave birth to her and raised her, and rescued her from the troubled place in Luoyang, but the purpose was to continue selling her at a good price.

To put it bluntly, who really cares about how Tang Rou is doing?

She can be a toy to satisfy possessiveness, a bargaining chip for trading prosperity and wealth, but she has never been treated as a person, even the two closest people in the world.

In this case, it seemed that it didn't matter how she lived her life, so she almost happily accepted the fact that she was kidnapped, and wanted to do all the things she had read when she was young.

Tang Rou is not fearless, just meaningless.

"Just wait for me to finish," she suddenly said with a smile, "but I can't ride a horse, have you forgotten? If you want to leave, let's go together."

Of course, my life is not worthless, but it is definitely not more important than anything else. If we can't live together, then it's not a bad idea to die here together.

You protect me with your life, and you should repay with your life.

This series of unexpected events made Yan Liang a little confused - what kind of operation is this, and what kind of operation is that?

Is your boy's reinforcements just such a pretty girl?

"Stay alive first and then worry about your beautiful little girl!" With an angry roar, Yan Liang stepped forward with a knife, turned over Che Shi, and sneered: "Wait until I capture her alive and enjoy it in front of you!"

Looking around, the sun has completely surpassed the horizon, and the golden mist has begun to melt. Although there is no possibility of rolling back the bead curtain, it also allows him to see clearly the reality of Xu Jiashu. There are only a few hundred people behind him, and there are also new defeats mixed in. The soldiers are nothing to be afraid of.

He turned around and gave a loud order to the camp: "Archers, stay still, everyone else will follow me out of the camp to fight!"

With these words, the gate of the camp opened again, and the last reserves filed out, preparing to accept this great achievement with General Yan Liang, who was showing his prowess. Sergeant Yuan, who had already rushed forward, also dropped the target at hand and completed it backwards. Rally.

Not far away, Guan Yu finally reached the sprinting distance. From his perspective, the opponent's rear army was moving forward and the front army was retreating. In this chaotic situation, the crossbowmen in the camp could not shoot, otherwise they would be injured. and friendly forces.

The formation was extremely disorganized due to the maneuvers. It was the perfect time for him to speed up.

Xu Jiashu was going through the most difficult battle in his life. Under the great joy and sorrow, [Wushuang] could no longer maintain his mood. If it weren't for the fact that Yan Liang was a rough-looking military commander who relied on brute force, and was shocked by the martial arts he had shown before, he would habitually If you go straight forward, you may not even be able to parry.

Even so, his body had reached its limit, and his hands even lost consciousness, and his sword was chopped away by Yan Liang.

When Guan Yu saw this, he didn't care about hiding his whereabouts, and shouted: "Hedong Guan Yunchang is here, and the thieves can come and fight!"

Hearing this, a sarcastic smile appeared on Yan Liang's lips - I have gained a reputation based on my martial arts skills, how could I not know the principle of finishing the last hit? After this kid regains his strength, won't it be extremely difficult to kill him again?

Just as he was raising his sword high, ready to behead Xu Jiashu by the river, a handful of sand hit his face. It was Tang Rou who dug it out from the ground. Blood slowly seeped out from her fingers, as if it was just now. Caused by excessive force.

Yan Liang closed his eyes tightly and waved the broadsword wildly - he still remembered Xu Jiashu's general location. As long as he cut it down, as long as he made this cut, both the couple would die!

At the critical moment, Guan Yu rushed over, his sword flashing across like water.

Kill the general and defeat the enemy.

[Experiencing life and death together, Tang Ji’s affection for you has increased significantly! 】
