"Old General Huang!" Liu Mang's eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Huang Zhong was besieged by three people. Two of them were at the refinement level. Although the last one had lost an arm, he could not be underestimated. Now, the three of them had forced Huang Zhong to a certain extent.
Currently, Liu Mang does not have any other reinforcements. Liu Kai and his son are dressed like scholars. Counting on them? Chengyu was sent out by Liu Mang to report the situation. The only one who could help was Lu Daijie. Lu Daijie was a girl, but even if she could help, Liu Mang was reluctant to do so. During the battle with Zhou Tai, Lu Daijie's waist was almost pierced by a spear. Liu Mang would rather go himself than let Lu Daijie go.
As for Huang Xu, he also wanted to save his father, but he was too far away from the battlefield. The longbow in his hand could not reach his father.
"Yes!" Huang Zhong frowned. He gritted his teeth. He had nowhere to hide. His top, middle, and bottom were all sealed. Jiang Qin would definitely attack him. Jiang Qin hated Huang Zhong to the bone.
Not only did Huang Zhong kill his brother Zhou Tai, but he also lost an arm. There was no room for reconciliation. Either Huang Zhong or Jiang Qin would die.
In the middle, Taishi Ci's halberds were like two venomous snakes flicking their tongues, ready to bite Huang Zhong at any moment.
The Overlord Spear on the bottom would not leave any leeway. Once it hit, Jiang Qin's waist would be crushed.
Huang Zhong gritted his teeth. He was too careless. He did not notice the subtlety of the Overlord Spear. If it was only Sun Ce alone, Huang Zhong would not be afraid. But now, he was surrounded by three people. A small mistake would cost him his life.
"Fight!" Huang Zhong was also angry. He was forced to this extent by three people who were not his opponents. Huang Zhong's face showed a trace of determination. Since you want this old man's life, then this old man will fulfill your wish!
If you want to die, you must die with this old man! Sun Ce! Huang Zhong has chosen his target. He wants to go berserk. He would rather take a saber or two halberds to go berserk and behead Sun Ce.
Once Sun Cejun did not have a lord, he would be a dragon without a head.
Sun Ce felt a sense of crisis. His whole body's hair stood up. Looking at the determination of the old general in front of him, he felt a little guilty. But then he calmed down. He was the successor of the Overlord Spear. The Overlord Spear of Western Chu paid attention to advancing courageously. Even at the last moment, he would die standing and not live kneeling. Chu Bawang was forced to the Wu River by Liu Bang. Originally, as long as Chu Bawang crossed the Wu River, with the descendants of Chu in Jiangdong, the whole world would belong to him. However, retreating was not Xiang Yu's nature. It was also not what the Overlord Spear should do. Even if he was surrounded by enemies, even if he stood resolutely in front of the Wu River, who could kill Chu Bawang? In the end, Chu Bawang chose to commit suicide. The only way to kill Chu Bawang was to kill from the heart!
Xiang Yu's heart died. He did not have the face to face the elders of Jiangdong, so he chose to commit suicide in the Wu River.
"Kill!" Sun Ce also became violent. If they wanted to kill Sun Ce, Sun Ce would kill them first.
"Come on!" Huang Zhong's face was full of determination. He shouted, "Young Lord, I will leave Xu 'er to you!" The one that Huang Zhong was most worried about was Huang Xu. Huang Xu was everything to Huang Zhong. As long as Huang Xu was alive, it did not matter if Huang Zhong died. In the past, whether it was under Liu Pan or Huang Zu, Huang Zhong was not working for them. He was more like a performer. He needed to rely on Liu Pan and Huang Zu's authority to find famous doctors and find medicinal herbs. Now, Huang Zhong did not need that anymore. Liu Mang had cured Huang Xu's illness. Huang Xu was the continuation of Huang Zhong's life. He knew that Huang Xu could live a better life under Liu Mang. Therefore, Huang Zhong was willing to work for Liu Mang.
"Old Man Huang, you should teach Huang Xu personally!" On the city wall, Liu Mang did not call him General anymore. Instead, he directly called him an old man.
"Father, you have not taught me martial arts yet!" Huang Xu's voice also sounded.
"Buzz!" The sound of air breaking came from above the city wall. This time, the sound was no longer the sound of an ordinary arrow breaking through the air. Instead, it was a kind of roar that caused the air to begin to move.
"What is this!" A dark figure shot out from above the city wall that was hundreds of meters away. His speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he had already rushed towards the place where the four people were fighting.
"How can this be!" Taishi Ci, who was at the back, could no longer care about sealing Huang Zhong. If he sealed Huang Zhong again, he did not know whether Huang Zhong would die or not. However, he knew that he would definitely die.
Sun Ce also changed from an active attack to a passive attack. His Conqueror Spear once again twisted. This time, it was not shot out, but it was ready to go. This was a passive defense.
Only Jiang Qin, as always, wanted to kill Huang Zhong. He did not care about the danger. As long as he could kill this old man in front of him, everything was worth it.
"Good opportunity!" Huang Zhong saw that there was a way to survive. He would not choose to die. His golden sword directly went towards Jiang Qin's sword.
"Clang!" The two swords intertwined with each other. Jiang Qin was full of anger. However, sometimes, no matter how deep the anger was, it could only be anger without strength. Jiang Qin now deeply understood Liu Mang's feeling of powerlessness.
"Buzz!" The dark figure was getting closer and closer. Taishi Ci suddenly pulled his horse and tilted it at an incredible angle. Sun Ce also did the same. They all wanted to avoid the dark figure. Only Jiang Qin was indifferent. It was not that he did not want to react, but it was too late.
"Gongyi, be careful!" In a panic, Taishi Ci suddenly threw a short halberd in his hand. It hit the dark figure, but it only moved a little bit. But it was this little bit that saved Jiang Qin's life. The dark figure directly penetrated his right chest.
Jiang Qin had such good luck, but his warhorse was not as lucky. When the shadow came, the warhorse was frightened and jumped up high. Jiang Qin did not have the time to suppress the warhorse, so the shadow flashed and took the warhorse's head with it.
The whole head was like a ripe watermelon. The skull, which was known as the strongest part of an animal, could not stop the dark figure's footsteps.
Even after piercing through two things, the speed of the shadow did not slow down. But after a while, Sun Ce was able to see clearly what it was. It was a giant tree. Its entire body was made of wood and iron. Although there was no spearhead in front of it, it still needed a spearhead. Just his size alone was enough to make him unstoppable.
"Ballista?!" Sun Ce was experienced and knowledgeable. He and his father, Sun Jian, had participated in the alliance meeting. This kind of thing generally only appeared in the frontier regions of Youzhou and Bingzhou. This kind of thing was originally only used to deter the enemy. Its symbolic meaning was greater than its actual meaning. He could fly for a thousand steps, and his arrow could pierce through dozens of people. All heavy armor and giant shields in front of him were like paper, unable to withstand a single blow.
In the frontier, this kind of thing was called a killing weapon by the foreigners. It was a demonic weapon. It was sent down by the Gods to punish the mortals, especially those who were mainly cavalrymen. This kind of thing could skewer dozens of people and horses like sugar-coated haws. It would not kill you on the spot, but it would make you howl in pain. The feeling of waiting for death was the most terrifying.
Therefore, foreigners generally did not dare to attack cities with ballistas.
However, the ballista had a huge flaw. The ballista was also known as the Eight Bull Ballista, meaning that it needed eight bulls to pull it. This meant that it needed too many people. Each ballista would need dozens or even hundreds of people to pull the bowstring. Moreover, each ballista could only shoot one arrow at a time. If the arrow was too big, then it would naturally lose its accuracy. It was used to deal with battle formations, not to deal with individuals.
This kind of thing could only be used as a deterrent, but not in actual combat. Therefore, in the south of the Central Plains, this kind of thing would not appear.
But now, it actually appeared in Wancheng city, and it was shot out. How could Sun Ce not be frightened?
Overlord spear, overlord spear! In front of this kind of arrow, it was as thin as a noodle.
Sun Ce decisively jumped off his warhorse and hid behind it. He wanted to rely on the warhorse's body to reduce the force of the arrow.
"Puff!" The arrow did not hesitate to penetrate the warhorse. Sun Ce's horse was bought by Sun Ce with a lot of money. It was a wild horse king. In order to catch it, no less than ten trainers died. In the end, it was chased by a group of people until it had no strength left. Even after being caught, the wild horse's temperament was difficult to change. It did not eat grass or feed. The horse seller originally put it together with other warhorses, hoping to erase its wild nature. Who would have thought that in one night, out of the 20 good horses in the stable, 15 were bitten to death by it. The remaining 5 were mares, shivering on the side.
Sun Ce took a fancy to this wild horse king. After knowing that this wild horse king had killed a lot of people and warhorses, he was not only not surprised, but also overjoyed. He suddenly jumped behind the wild horse king.
The wild horse king was the king of horses. Not to mention a person riding on its back, even if someone approached it, it would be furious. It went crazy and ran around with Sun Ce, trying to throw Sun Ce off. Sun Ce had just stepped into the Spirit Refining realm at that time. Being chased by this beast was very tiring, but Sun Ce persisted. Finally, the wild horse king could not stand it anymore and stopped first, collapsing to the side. Sun Ce thought that he had subdued it, but he did not expect to be bitten back. The wound on his hand was still there. This wild horse king would rather die than submit. Sun Ce was helpless. Coupled with the wound on his hand, he was about to kill it. It was strange that when Sun Ce took out the overlord spear, the wild horse king actually lowered its noble head and became docile.
After subduing the horse king, it followed Sun Ce to conquer the east and the west. Sun Ce also gave it a name called Oolong.
This Oolong was very intelligent. When the arrow was flying towards it, it sensed it and began to hiss in a low voice to warn its master. Its master jumped down from his warhorse. He also knew that the Oolong wanted to use him to block the arrow. Its companions had already experienced the power of this arrow. If it was under normal circumstances, it would have jumped up and run away. But now, it just stood there quietly and didn't move.
"Oolong!" Between himself and the warhorse, Sun Ce did not hesitate to choose himself. It was not that he was cold-blooded, but he could not afford to die. If he died, what would happen to Jiangdong? If he died, what would happen to his mother and sister-in-law? If he died, what would happen to his promise with Gong Jin?
So he could not afford to die. He could only jump off the warhorse and hide behind the Oolong.
"Puff!" The giant arrow would eventually be judged, whether it was the horse king or the overlord! In front of him, it was nothing more than a paper wall.
The giant arrow did not only penetrate the Oolong's stomach. In order to better block the arrow for its master, the Oolong twisted its body when the arrow pierced its body. It wanted to use its body to block the arrow for its master, even if it could only block it for a moment. Even if it was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
The giant arrow piercing its body was already very painful. If it twisted its body, it would only allow the giant arrow to penetrate even more parts of its body.
"Puff, puff, puff!" The stomach, internal organs, and back bones were penetrated layer by layer. Even so, it could not block the giant arrow for a moment. The giant arrow flew out of the Oolong's body and took away a string of internal organs. The entire arrowhead was dyed red and hot.
"Oolong!" Sun Ce raised his head and looked at his old companion. A trace of tears could be seen on its face. "Ahhhh!" The Overlord Spear shot out! Sun Ce exploded to the extreme. The veins on his arms were exposed. He gritted his teeth, his gaze was serious, and his muscles were tense.
"Overlord Raises Cauldron!" The leather armor on his body had already cracked. Sun Ce was going all out.
