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

Chapter 437: Guan Yu Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles, the Shocked Dongxian King

Nine days ago, Xun Yu, under Cao Cao's command, bribed the magistrate of a small county in Beidi County of Liangzhou with a thousand taels of gold. The man was a fellow villager of Xun Yu. Under Xun Yu's kindness and force, the magistrate accepted Xun Yu's thousand taels of yellow turbans and informed Xun Yu of the news that Huang Zhong and Ma Chao were heading to Wuhuan on the border of Liangzhou and Bingzhou.

After learning about this, Xun Yu immediately returned to Xuchang City and told Cao Cao about it. Cao Cao naturally knew what Gu Rubing was planning. After learning that there were only Ma Chao and Huang Zhong, and they had only 5,000 cavalry, Cao Cao made a prompt decision and ordered Xu Chu, Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren under his command to go out together with 20,000 cavalry from Xudu to Sili Prefecture, and then take a detour to Wuhuan.

It took them seven full days to reach the Wuhuan territory. Just after entering the country for a hundred miles, they encountered Huang Zhong, Ma Chao and the remaining thousand or so cavalry who had just broken through the siege and were still being chased by Wuhuan cavalry. Thus, a long-line pursuit and encirclement battle began!
"Prime Minister, is it too late to provide support now?"

Gu Rubing asked hurriedly, Ma Chao and Huang Zhong, both of them are first-class generals, two of the Five Tiger Generals. If he loses these two people at once, it will be an unacceptable blow to Gu Rubing. It also means that Liangzhou and Yuzhang County will most likely be out of Gu Rubing's jurisdiction.

"Man makes the difference, not God's will."

Zhuge Liang did not say the result directly. He had just leaked the secret, which was already a great offense against the world. If he continued to leak it, he would be doomed to damage his fortune and suffer heavenly punishment. He could only give a hint. The final result still depended on what Gu Rubing did.

"Yun Chang, I'll have to trouble you to go to Wuhuan again."

Gu Rubing turned his head to look at Guan Yu who was standing beside him. Guan Yu seemed worried and was reluctant to speak. Gu Rubing knew what Guan Yu was worried about and spoke immediately.

"Yun Chang, just rest assured. I am in Qingzhou. Who can harm me? The Bai Li soldiers and Qinglong school swordsmen are still here. Don't you still trust the soldiers you brought with you?"

Hearing this, Guan Yu stopped worrying and stood up.

"Zhou Cang! Pei Yuanshao!"

Two people outside heard the sound and entered the room, waiting at the door.

"You two, make sure to protect my big brother!"

"Don't worry, my lord! Even if we die, we will never die after the prince!"

Zhou Cang clasped his hands and bowed, his eyes full of murderous intent, and the same was true for Pei Yuanshao beside him.

"Bring me Guan's sword!"

Guan Yu waved his hand, took three steps forward, and turned to face Gu Rubing.

"Brother, Yunchang will be back soon!"

"Yun Chang, please pay attention to your own safety."

Gu Rubing warned that although Guan Yu could now be described as invincible, Gu Rubing knew very well that because of their time travel, this world would no longer be the same as before. Since his subordinates could obtain various bonuses, characteristics, and special skills, Cao Cao and his men must have them as well. It would not be good if something unexpected happened.

However, as long as Guan Yu is careful, with their current strength, they will definitely have no way to deal with Guan Yu, so Gu Rubing specifically gave him a few more instructions.

"Don't worry, big brother! Yunchang will definitely bring Han Sheng and Meng Qi back safely!"

After saying this, Guan Yu turned and left. Time was urgent. If they left a quarter of an hour later, they would be in danger for a quarter of an hour longer. Zhou Cang was already waiting at the door with Guan Yu's sword on his shoulder. Guan Yu picked up his Green Dragon Crescent Blade, then mounted his Red Hare and galloped out of the mansion.

The blood-red Red Hare rushed out like a streak of red light and disappeared into the mansion.

After the last battle, Guan Yu's Martial Saint points reached 10 points, unlocking the Martial Saint feature, which can provide the mount with 1000% movement speed and -90% horse stamina consumption. This is only effective when Guan Yu rides Red Hare. In addition, a small icon (10/20) appears behind the Martial Saint points on Guan Yu's panel, which means that after Guan Yu's Martial Saint points accumulate to 20, he will gain another special effect.

With the huge bonus to movement speed, and the fact that only Guan Yu was going there and did not need to wait for the troops, Guan Yu's speed was incredibly fast. If he kept running like this, in less than a day, Guan Yu could get from Qingzhou to Wuhuan, which was more than 3,000 kilometers away from Qingzhou. This was even faster than the terrifying speed of 800 kilometers a day and 1,000 kilometers at night that only existed in legends.

What's even more terrifying is the sentence that follows: the horse's physical strength consumption is -90%. This means that the Red Hare's energy consumption has increased tenfold. A thousand-mile horse that hardly needs to rest and whose endurance has increased tenfold, let alone a thousand gold coins, would not be sold even for ten thousand gold coins.

Watching Guan Yu's figure disappear in an instant, Gu Rubing realized more deeply the importance of legendary generals. Legendary generals are not in the same class as other generals. It is even more important to protect Ma Chao and Huang Zhong. It can be said that as the two of them are ranked in the top ten in the Three Kingdoms, one is fifth and the other is seventh, it is only a matter of time before they are promoted to legendary generals. Gu Rubing was reluctant to see them die in Wuhuan in such an unclear way.

"hope everything is fine."

Gu Rubing said softly.

At the junction of the Xiongnu, the Dongxian Royal Court, the Zhongxian Royal Court, and the Nanxian Royal Court, Dian Wei led 3,800 Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and joined forces with Cao Ren led 20,000 cavalry. Because in front of them, a large mass of Xiongnu cavalry were ready for battle. Everywhere they looked, they saw Xiongnu cavalry, and there was no end in sight.

In front of the Xiongnu cavalry formation, the Eastern Wise King and the four kings of the Eastern Wise King's court, the two great war gods, were quietly waiting for Dian Wei and his men to arrive. After the meeting at the Western Wise King's court, the Eastern Wise King immediately returned to his own territory and gathered all the cavalry he could win over in his territory.

The Eastern Xian Royal Court, as the most powerful force among the five royal courts after the Western Xian Royal Court, this time assembled a cavalry team of 80,000 people, gathered at the place where Dian Wei had to pass, and blocked Dian Wei outside the Central Xian Royal Court. Moreover, he had four first-rate generals under his command, and two war gods were both at the level of top second-rate generals. It can be said that as long as the Western Xian Royal Court does not come out, the Eastern Xian Royal Court will be invincible in the Xiongnu territory. This is also the reason why the Eastern Xian King is so arrogant despite his young age, because he has the capital to be arrogant.

"Hey, two-legged sheep! Whose dog are you? Tell me your name, or your grandfather will kill you without knowing who you killed! When your grandfather conquers the Han Dynasty, I will go find your master and let you reunite with him in the underworld!"

Before Dian Wei and the others came close, King Dongxian asked the person beside him who was responsible for scolding to hold a simple iron loudspeaker and shout loudly, and the curses were particularly dirty. After the servant beside him finished shouting, King Dongxian laughed wildly, and then suddenly turned to look at the servant next to him. Seeing the servant's confused look, King Dongxian grinned, drew the scimitar at his waist, and chopped off his head with one stroke.

"Come on, come on, one more. Everything I say must be passed on to you, including laughter!" After killing the corpse, King Dongxian was too lazy to even look at it. He waved behind him and motioned one of the men to come over. That row of people were specially selected by him to be responsible for shouting and cursing in front of the formation.

The person who was called out picked up the trumpet that the man had dropped with trembling hands. The blood on it was still warm, but the temperature was fading away quickly, just like the speed at which life was fading away.

"Hahaha--"

The next moment, the knife fell again.

"Is this how I laugh? Can't you even imitate my speech? Come on, someone else, hurry up!"

One person walked out of the team again, picked up the trumpet that was stained with the blood of two people, suppressed his fear, held the trumpet and began to laugh. Only then did King Dongxian nod with satisfaction.

Seeing the other party suddenly silent, and then there were a few sounds that sounded like laughter? Then it stopped abruptly, and then there was this burst of laughter. This inexplicable sound made Dian Wei, who was originally very angry, calm down a little at this moment, but the next moment, his anger, which had just subsided, burned again.

"Two-legged sheep, are you dumb? Tell me your master's name right away, or don't blame me for not leaving you a whole body!"

At the signal of King Dongxian, the servant with the loudspeaker continued to speak nonsense. Dian Wei, holding his halberd, was about to charge and kill, but was stopped by Cao Zhang. After all, Cao Zhang was Cao Cao's son, and his words had some effect on Dian Wei, which restrained him from getting angry.

"General Dian Wei, don't be irritated by that fellow's provocation. They have a large number of troops and an advantage. We should not take the initiative to attack."

Dian Wei naturally knew this, but he was too angry to tolerate such insults from the other party. It didn't matter if he was insulted, but the main reason was that the other party insulted Cao Cao, which was the real reason for his anger.

"Sir, leave the King of Dongxian to me later."

Dian Wei spoke in a muffled voice and Cao Zhang nodded. In fact, the reason why Cao Zhang was asked to follow Dian Wei was not because of Cao Zhang's strong fighting ability, but also because he had an accurate assessment of the situation. Most importantly, as Cao Zhang was Cao Cao's son, Dian Wei could still listen to some of what he said. In this regard, even the Xiahou brothers and Cao Ren, these famous generals, could not compare to Cao Zhang.

Another more important reason is that Cao Zhang is not far from being promoted to a famous general, so let him follow Dian Wei to see if he can find some loopholes and be promoted to a famous general.

Although legendary generals are strategic in nature, the presence of famous generals cannot be ignored.

"Damn it, are those Han Chinese people across the street cotton? Aren't you angry at being scolded like that?"

King Dongxian looked at the other party who were starting to form a formation and ignored his intentions, and he couldn't help feeling angry.

"A bunch of mutes. Kill them. I am no longer interested in them."

Then, the servant next to him began to repeat King Dongxian's words with a loudspeaker. King Dongxian looked at the man with a little surprise, his eyes revealing deep disgust, and he raised his knife again.

"Don't you know what should be repeated and what shouldn't be repeated?"

After saying this, King Dongxian raised his scimitar high.

"charge!"

Eighty thousand Wuhuan cavalrymen began to charge. The cavalry on both sides rushed out first, and their speed was faster than that in the middle. It was exactly the formation of a long snake turning into a double dragon emerging from water. However, the opponent obviously did not want to change the formation. They just wanted to rush and kill Dian Wei and his men from both sides.

"Sir, according to the intelligence we gathered before, the four academy kings are left to me, and you have to deal with those two damn war gods."

Dian Wei looked at the other side who took the initiative to charge, and not only smiled evilly, but also raised his halberd in front of him, eager to try, staring at King Dongxian who was at the end of the team. King Dongxian seemed to feel the gaze from Dian Wei, pointed at Dian Wei from a distance with his scimitar, and then gestured at his neck with his hand.

Cao Zhang rode his horse beside Dian Wei, but Dian Wei did not ride a horse. He did not like fighting on horseback, but preferred fighting on foot. Especially the feeling of fighting on foot against horseback. People always said that fighting on horseback was better than fighting on foot, but Dian Wei did not think so.

"General Dian, just rest assured. We will never let those two people affect General Dian's hunting."

With 23,800 cavalry against 80,000 cavalry, and more than 20,000 cavalry including 3,800 Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, it can only be said that it is not too easy. Compared with the feat of Huang Zhong and Ma Chao who only brought 5,000 cavalry to fight against 90,000 cavalry, this situation is just a piece of cake. If it were Zhang Liao, he would not even be able to trigger the commander skill of fighting to the death.

The four kings of the Dongxian royal court surrounded Dian Wei at the first moment. Their target was the black-faced man. They had the same idea as Dian Wei at the moment. They all believed that the advantage was in their hands. One had strong confidence in his own military strength, and the other had absolute information about the soldiers under his command. Both sides felt that they would not lose, and both thought that the other would die.

The clash between the two sides was about to break out, but the 23,800 cavalrymen fought with the momentum of 200,000. Facing the opponent's 80,000 troops, they did not hesitate at all. At the moment of hand-to-hand combat, Cao's army, led by the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, drove straight in and killed all the enemy troops in front of them. The opponent rushed forward one after another, but they could not stop the advance of Cao's army.

After only a few minutes of fighting, the Xiongnu cavalry suffered a terrifying loss of 5,000 people. This horrific level of casualties made King Dongxian almost freeze in place, staring in horror at the flying limbs and arms on the battlefield. Even a murderous tyrant like King Dongxian was shocked by this scene and trembled all over when he saw it.

He suddenly had a bad premonition, his right eyelid twitched wildly, and the hand that was holding the scimitar was now soaked with sweat. What shocked him the most was that in the encirclement of the four kings of his own colleges, the black-faced man who was fighting against the four kings of the four colleges with his own strength, the man, holding a halberd, rushed into the encirclement of the four people.

Moreover, he now had the upper hand, beating the kings of the four courts alone, and the halberd in his hand was like a magical weapon, and he actually chopped the king of the West Court off his horse with one halberd. The king of the West Court represented the highest combat power of his Dongxian royal court, and the kings of the four courts were almost equally strong, but now, they had just met, and that man almost chopped the king of the West Court, which made the Dongxian king feel a strong bad feeling in his heart.
