Choose Liu Bei at the start, I am the only one who knows the plot of the Three Kingdoms.

Chapter 372: Melee! Cao Cao is determined
Facing the furious Cao Cao, Gu Rubing just spread his hands, shrugged and smiled.

"Your life is here, and the imperial seal is also here. Do you want it? Just come and get it if you have the ability."

"Liu Bei! Don't think that I dare not kill you. To be honest, my army has surrounded the entire palace. There are three layers of troops inside and outside. Even if you have someone to support you outside, you can't take a single step out of the palace!"

Cao Cao clenched his fists. At this moment, only the two sides were left in front of the palace. The officials who were there just now had disappeared. Only about twenty people were left confronting each other.

"Hahahaha, fine, I'll stand here and wait for you to kill me!"

Looking at Gu Rubing's fearless look, Cao Cao suddenly had the idea of ​​retreating, but the next moment, he abandoned this idea.

"Since you are so ungrateful, Liu Bei, the governor of Qingzhou, has led his troops to the palace and defied the emperor's authority. According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, you should be beheaded! Capture him!"

At Cao Cao's command, the palace gates opened wide, and countless soldiers poured into the palace, pointing their spears at the five people in the field. Behind Cao Cao, dozens of generals also picked up their weapons, waiting for Cao Cao's order, and they would rush forward and chop all five people in the encirclement into eight pieces.

"Liu Bei, don't think I don't know. When you came to Xudu, you brought 8,000 soldiers with you. Those 8,000 soldiers have now been surrounded by my men. They can't come to rescue you. Today, you are crying out to the heavens and the earth for help but no one will answer you!"

"Oh, really? Then I would like to ask, which general under your command led the troops to surround my personal soldiers?"

Gu Rubing had a smile on his face and spoke in a light tone, not taking Cao Cao seriously at all. However, the more Gu Rubing acted like this, the more Cao Cao felt something was wrong. Based on his understanding of Gu Rubing, if there was really no other way, he would definitely not have such an expression. His expression was more like he saw through everything he had arranged.

"Liu Bei, don't try to delay. No one will come to save you. If those 8,000 men dare to move, my 20,000 men will kill them all."

"Alright, alright, Cao Cao, you are just comforting yourself now. You are afraid that I have other tricks up my sleeve, so you are hesitant to act."

Cao Cao was not angry when Gu Rubing pointed out his thoughts, but laughed out loud.

"It's better to be safe than sorry, Liu Bei. I wasn't sure if you were really at the end of your rope, but your bluffing just now made me certain."

"Kill me!"

Cao Cao suddenly shouted, and Dian Wei and Xu Chu rushed out first. Their target was very clear, that was Guan Yu, who had defeated them last time when he fought one against two. Now Dian Wei has been promoted to a famous general, and Xu Chu is almost the same, and both of them want to avenge their humiliation.

Guan Yu looked at the two people rushing towards him and chuckled.

"I see you two are like putting a stake in Seoul!"

After that, Guan Yu brandished the Green Dragon Crescent Blade and fought with Dian Wei and Xu Chu. Dian Wei activated his skills right from the start, activating Ancient Evil and Endless Fury at the same time, greatly increasing his attack power and attack speed. He held a halberd in his hand and fought hard with Guan Yu.

The first sword of Guan Yu's Spring and Autumn Swordsmanship is extremely powerful, and is comparable to Dian Wei who has activated his skills. Dian Wei is not to be outdone, and uses his deadly three halberds. Dian Wei holds the halberd handle in one hand and a specially made handle on the tip of the halberd in the other hand. He holds the halberd with both hands, uses the force of rotation, falls from the air, and chop the Green Dragon Yanyue Sword with one halberd.

The huge sound of the golden swords colliding produced a terrifying air wave, which blew away all the surrounding soldiers. The huge sound almost broke the eardrums of the surrounding soldiers. They all covered their ears in pain.

Xu Chu looked at Dian Wei, who was equally matched with Guan Yu, and immediately swung his Pifeng Sword and charged into the battlefield between the two. Once Xu Chu joined, Guan Yu's pressure immediately increased. Facing a famous general, a top-notch general, and both of them were generals with extremely high combat power, Guan Yu's pressure can be imagined. Fortunately, he would never be defeated. The two of them formed a pincer attack and forced Guan Yu to retreat again and again.

"kill!"

Zhang Fei roared and activated his skill. The huge roar caused the surrounding soldiers who had suffered eardrum impact to suffer a second injury. Countless soldiers' eardrums burst into blood, and two streams of blood rushed out. They all fell to the ground immediately, in great pain.

"The Headphone Party suffered a second injury and was killed!"

"I can stand the sound of the fight between Guan Erye and Dian Wei just now, but I really can't stand the roar of Sanye. From now on, whenever Sanye appears in the live broadcast room, I will definitely take off all my headphones!"

"My stupid brain can't remember that Master San is the nemesis of the headphone party!"

The sound of Dian Wei and Guan Yu's weapons colliding, and Zhang Fei's fierce roar, made the netizens in the live broadcast room complain bitterly. The huge sound made those netizens wearing headphones remember.

Zhang Fei swung his spear and killed crazily among the soldiers. Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun saw Zhang Fei looking ferocious in the crowd and immediately joined forces to kill Zhang Fei to prevent him from killing ordinary soldiers. If Guan Yu was good at taking the heads of enemy generals in the midst of thousands of troops, then Zhang Fei was even better at killing in the enemy's encirclement and breaking through the enemy's encirclement.

In addition to Zhang Fei, there was another person present who was also very good at fighting one against many. He faced two first-rate generals alone, while also shuttling among the soldiers under Cao Cao. The Longdan Silver Spear was like a swimming dragon in Zhao Yun's hand, and every shot he swung could make the heads of several soldiers around him fly.

The other two first-rate generals were unable to stop Zhao Yun from slaughtering the soldiers. At the critical moment, Cao Ren, Yu Jin, Le Jin and Xu Huang rushed out and stood in front, behind, left and right of Zhao Yun respectively, surrounding Zhao Yun in a pincer attack to prevent him from continuing to slaughter the soldiers. Although the lives of these soldiers were not important, they could not allow the other side to kill without limit.

Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan were not enough to suppress Zhang Fei. After all, neither of them had yet been promoted to famous generals and were lacking in combat power. Just when the two were about to give up, two more figures joined the war. They were Cao Chun and Cao Zhen, from the same clan as Cao Cao. They were both Cao Cao's relatives and also first-rate generals, but they were still inferior to first-rate generals like Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan.

The four of them stood together with Zhang Fei. Although they could not stop Zhang Fei, they also prevented Zhang Fei from having any time to deal with the soldiers. At the same time, they were surrounded by them, separating the three of them and preventing them from joining forces.

At this moment, Taishi Ci was the only one protecting Gu Rubing. Taishi Ci had taken off the Zhuge Crossbow from his waist. Cao Cao had heard of the crossbow that could shoot ten arrows in a row, but had never seen one. As a time traveler, he naturally knew about such things as crossbows. He had tried to make one before, or instilled the concept of crossbows with the craftsmen, but all the craftsmen ended in failure in the end.

So when he saw the Zhuge Crossbow in Taishi Ci's hand, he showed great interest. "Don't destroy the crossbow in that man's hand!"

Cao Cao ordered his men, Xiahou Shang, Cao Xiu, Wen Pin, and Li Dian, to rush towards Taishi Ci at the same time, trying to control Taishi Ci as well. That way, no one would be able to protect Liu Bei. At that time, Liu Bei would be meat on the chopping board and he would be the knife.

Gu Rubing had also drawn out his double-edged sword and charged into the soldiers, hoping to take this opportunity to gain some experience points. Taishi Ci fought and retreated at the same time, never engaging in a battle with the four men, nor allowing them to seize the opportunity to surround him. He just kept his distance, holding the crossbow in his right hand all the time, and using the halberd in his left hand to deal with the four men who might suddenly charge forward.

Fourteen first-rate generals are Cao Cao's foundation. Most of them are his relatives. Some others came to Cao Cao because of his personal charm, or followed others to join Cao Cao. In addition to these fourteen people, there are four others who are also first-rate generals. They are about to besiege Gu Rubing at this moment.

After seeing this scene, Guan Yu immediately wanted to help Gu Rubing, but Dian Wei and Xu Chu were too strong and did not give Guan Yu a chance to escape. Guan Yu used the last sword technique of the Spring and Autumn Sword Technique to slash out, and the superimposed attack power tilted down and forced Dian Wei and Xu Chu to retreat temporarily.

However, Guan Yu was the farthest away from Gu Rubing and had no time to rescue him. In desperation, Guan Yu had no choice but to charge into Zhang Fei's encirclement.

"Third brother, big brother is in trouble, you go protect big brother, I will deal with these people!"

"it is good!"

Zhang Fei did not hesitate. The two of them stood back to back and attacked Cao Chun in Gu Rubing's direction at the same time. Guan Yu used a sword to knock the sword out of Cao Cun's hand. Zhang Fei, who was following closely behind, was about to stab Cao Chun to death with a spear, but Cao Chun noticed it and rolled over to avoid the fatal blow. However, this also allowed Zhang Fei to successfully break through and kill the generals who were besieging Gu Rubing.

Before the four men surrounded Gu Rubing, they heard a loud noise behind them. The four men subconsciously covered their ears, and Zhang Fei successfully broke through and stood in front of Gu Rubing.

"Brother, I'm here to protect you."

Gu Rubing patted Zhang Fei on the shoulder.

"Thank you for your hard work, Third Brother. Wenyuan should be here soon. Just hold on a little longer."

It is impossible to say that Gu Rubing was not panicking. After all, there were four first-rate generals. Even if they were not particularly powerful, they would definitely have no problem dealing with Gu Rubing.

After Zhang Fei rushed out, Guan Yu had to face six people alone. Even Guan Yu could not resist and was forced into a corner in just a few breaths. Fortunately, they all used powerful weapons and had to take care of each other between attacks. Only four people could attack Guan Yu at the same time, which made Guan Yu breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhao Yun saw Guan Yu trapped in siege, and immediately began to try to break out, wanting to save Guan Yu, but he was suppressed here by Xu Huang and others, and he could not provide any support. Zhao Yun roared, and his characteristic was triggered, gaining 30% of the attributes of his subordinates. This made Zhao Yun's attack power increase suddenly, and with one shot, he knocked Yu Jin away, and then he was able to reunite with Guan Yu.

After they reunited, it was a situation where two people were facing ten people. Although it was called ten people, in fact, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun were back to back, and there were only four or five people in the innermost circle who could attack the two at the same time. The others could not join in and could only look for opportunities to attack.

That's why they had been blocking the four people and preventing them from joining together. If the four people joined together, it would be even more difficult to deal with them.

What they didn't know was that Zhao Yun had tried his best to break through to Guan Yu's side in order to fully stimulate his own characteristics, the Dragon's Fury in Desperate Situations. When in desperate situations, he would obtain 100% of the total benefits of his troops. The huge gain allowed Zhao Yun's combat power to be greatly increased. Although the two of them felt pressured facing ten people at this time, they would not be defeated.

Cao Cao looked at the two circles and a straight line on the battlefield with a somewhat dull look. The two circles represented Guan Yu and Zhao Yun, the other one represented Gu Rubing and Zhang Fei, and the straight line represented Taishi Ci who had never been close to him. At this time, Cao Cao felt what Sun Jian had felt some time ago, that is, Gu Rubing's bonus was much higher than theirs, whether it was military generals or troops, they were far superior to them. This was why Gu Rubing was always able to win with fewer troops.

Looking at the four generals killing everyone on the battlefield, Cao Cao couldn't help but clench his fists. If these four generals were under his command, he couldn't even imagine how powerful he would be.

But this was just his wishful thinking. Guan Yu was unwilling to submit to him, so it was naturally impossible for Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and Taishi Ci to submit to him.

"I would rather let the world betray me than let the world betray me!"

Cao Cao whispered his famous saying again. At this time, he finally let go of his obsession with Guan Yu and was no longer obsessed with gaining Guan Yu's loyalty.

"Dian Wei has been promoted to a famous general, but even with Xu Chu, he couldn't defeat Guan Yu."

Cao Cao said silently, his eyes still fixed on Guan Yu, not even looking at Gu Rubing. He tried to see through Guan Yu. He wanted to know if Guan Yu was about to be promoted to a legendary general, or if he had already been promoted to a legendary general. If so, it was normal that Dian Wei and Xu Chu could not defeat him together.

Just when Guan Yu and Zhao Yun were about to be unable to hold out against the combined forces of ten people, the light from Dian Wei, who was rushing in the front and glowing red all over, suddenly began to dissipate, and his aura began to drop visibly.

When Xu Chu saw this scene, he immediately understood. This was what the prime minister had told him before. Once the red light on Dian Wei appeared and disappeared, he must protect Dian Wei for at least half a quarter of an hour.

Thinking of this, Xu Chu stood in front of Dian Wei, and smashed his wind-splitting sword to the ground, shattering the bricks and stones on the ground.

"Stop chasing Taishi Ci, come back and kill Guan Yu and Zhao Yun!"

Cao Cao stood in the back and roared. He was the only one on horseback, while the others were fighting on foot. Cao Cao saw it clearly that none of the ten men could take down Guan Yu and Zhao Yun. What's more, Dian Wei's Ancient Evil and Endless Fury skills had expired, and Xu Chu had to protect Dian Wei, so he could not take down Guan Yu and the others.

As long as Guan Yu is killed and Zhao Yun is attacked, the remaining Zhang Fei and Taishi Ci will no longer be able to protect Gu Rubing in the face of so many generals, and he will be unable to escape even if he has wings.

After hearing Cao Cao's order, the four people who were chasing Taishi Ci immediately turned back, rushed towards Guan Yu and Zhao Yun, and raised their swords high.
