Huangzhou city's gate was opened. One after another, Jiangxia's army walked out of Huangzhou city and faced Lu Bu's army who is eyeing them like a tiger watching its prey.
"Taking the initiative to fight?!" Lu Bu patted his horse and looked at the 2,000 Jiangxia soldiers who are leaving the city "I am now sure that Jiangxia's army has changed their commander!" Lü Bu smiled. The Jiangxia Army's 10,000 infantry and 5,000 navy could only defend Huangzhou City and prevent them from entering Jiangxia. If they only relied on the provisions in the city, the Lvbu's Army would definitely run out of provisions and retreat.
But now, the Jiangxia Army took the initiative to fight.
"In the past, they were like a coward hiding in the city and couldn't do anything to you. Now that they are taking the initiative to fight, they can only wait to die!" Zang Ba licked his lips and cupped his hands towards Lü Bu. "Milord, Zang Ba requests to fight! Give me 1000 troops and I will make sure that the Jiangxia Army will never return! "
These days, Zang Ba had been trying to show off in front of Lü Bu. He was tired of being Lü Bu's personal guard. He was Zang Ba, a talented general. How could he be a personal guard?
"No, no, Xuan Gao, you have to let me fight this time! Milord, Zhang Liao requests to fight! " Zhang Liao also stood up. His Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry was unable to fight in this place where water was everywhere. He had been suppressing his anger for a long time. Now that there was an opportunity, how could he not take it?
"Wen Yuan, why are you fighting with me? You only have cavalry under your command. This place is not suitable for a large scale cavalry charge!" Zang Ba glared at Zhang Liao and said. Only Gao Shun stood at the side and didn't say anything. He didn't fight or fight. He would fight wherever Milord asked him to.
"What's wrong with cavalry? Cavalry is still infantry! Even if my wolf cubs dismount, they will still be elite infantry! "
"But you …!"
"Enough, stop arguing!" Lü Bu picked his ears and stopped the two from arguing. "Xuan Gao, are you sure you want to fight?!" Lü Bu suddenly asked Zang Ba.
"Yes, Zang is willing to take the enemy's head for Milord!" Zang Ba's heart was filled with joy and he nodded his head. He thought that Lu Bu was looking at his determination.
Zang Ba was not being arrogant, but he was confident that he could destroy 2,000 elite soldiers with just 1,000 soldiers.
In terms of commanding ability, Zang Ba's Army was only on par with Zang Ba.
"3000!" Lu Bu stretched out three fingers. "I will give you three thousand troops!" “
"No, no, Milord, 1000 soldiers is enough!" Zang Ba said anxiously. "If 1000 soldiers can't take down 2000 Jiangxia Army, I will take my head!"
"I don't want your head. I also don't want you to take down 2000 Jiangxia Army!" Lü Bu shook his head and said. "I want you to lose. I want you to retreat all the way to the main camp!"
"Ahhhhh!" Zang Ba looked at Lu Bu with an expression of disbelief. It has always been the commanding general who asked his subordinates to win. There has never been a commanding general who asked his subordinates to be defeated. If he is defeated, then he is defeated. If 1000 people is not enough, then he must pull 3000 people.
Was Milord trying to lure the enemy in? Zang Ba was indeed a talented general. He immediately understood what Lü Bu was thinking.
"Milord, can you not go?" Regardless of whether Zang Ba was trying to lure the enemy or not, he would definitely lose. No commander liked to be chased and beaten.
"What do you think?" Lü Bu asked.
Looking at Zang Ba's bitter face, Lü Bu smirked. "Xuan Gao, Xuan Gao, this is the first time you asked for a battle. If I don't fulfill your request, then it will be my fault!"
"That's right, that's right! Xuan Gao, this is your first battle. You have to fight beautifully! " Zhang Liao was upset that he did not get the chance to fight for the first battle. Now that he heard Lü Bu's words, he was gloating.
"Alright, I'll go!" Zang Ba glared at Zhang Liao and left the camp. He gathered three thousand soldiers and rode towards the battle formation.
"Who are you? Zang Ba of Mount Tai, Zang Xuan Gao of Mount Tai is here. Why haven't you come forward to die yet?" Zang Ba held his broadsword horizontally and roared towards the two thousand Jiangxia soldiers below Huangzhou City.
"Mount Tai, Zang Ba?!" Jiang Xia's generals were worried that they would encounter Lü Bu or Lü Bu's subordinates, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao. He had seen how terrifying Lü Bu was. Gao Shun and Zhang Liao did not display any martial arts skills, but they were able to command an army alone. This showed their strength.
But now, a nameless general had appeared! Jiang Xia's generals were overjoyed.
No wonder this Jiang Xia's generals were here. Zang Ba had been by Lü Bu's side ever since the Battle of Kaiyang. It was normal that no one knew about him.
"Enemy general, don't be so arrogant! Jiang Xia, Xu Zhi, is here. I will chop off your head! " A nameless general might have a chance to survive. I'll use your head in exchange for my life! Xu Zhi thought greedily.
On the battlefield, war horses galloped. Blades flashed and swords flashed. In an instant, the two of them had fought for ten rounds.
"Hmph!" Zang Ba snorted in his heart. If it wasn't for Lü Bu's orders, he would have already chopped this trash in front of him. How dare he embarrass himself when he isn't even a second-rate fighter?
However, Zang Ba had no choice but to play along with this Xu Zhi. They fought until they were evenly matched. It was very exciting.
"When did this Xu Zhi become so strong?!" On the city gate tower, Huang Zhong looked at the battle below in confusion. Huang Zhong did not know how strong that Zang Ba, Xuan Gao, was. However, he knew that this Zang Ba must have entered the Spirit Refinement realm. His eyes were focused and his breathing was even. These were the signs of a Spirit Refinement realm cultivator.
A Spirit Refinement realm cultivator and Xu Zhi fought to a draw? Did Xu Zhi become stronger? Or was this opponent too weak?
"Who is this person! He actually has such strength! " Although Huang She was also a martial artist, he was not very good at martial arts. Compared to Xu Zhi, he was not much stronger. Therefore, he could not tell the truth. Instead, he felt that this Xu Zhi was very strong. He was actually able to fight evenly with a general of the Lvbu's Army.
"This person is Xu Zhi. He is the military chief of Huang Province! He is the talent of a general! "Seeing Xu Zhi fighting so fiercely, a Huang Province official answered.
"Oh? Defeat the enemy. This young master will reward you handsomely! "
Just as the two of them were talking, the situation suddenly changed. After dozens of rounds, Zang Ba revealed a big flaw. His entire back was exposed in front of Xu Zhi.
"Good chance!" Xu Zhi was overjoyed. He aimed his spear at Zang Ba's neck.
"Clang!" A series of sparks appeared when the two weapons collided.
"Swoosh!" The helmet on Zang Ba's head was directly sent flying by the steel spear. His long hair was disheveled, and there was a trace of blood on his face. It was cut by the steel spear.
"General, I am tired today. Let us fight again tomorrow!" Zang Ba turned his horse around and ran away.
"General, where do you think you are going?" When Xu Zhi saw that Zang Ba's helmet had been pierced by him, he naturally thought that he had encountered a soft persimmon. If he didn't pinch Zang Ba to his heart's content and kill him, he would have the capital to be conferred the title of Marquis.
He urged his horse forward and the whole army charged forward. The Lvbu's Army behind him saw that Zang Ba had run away. Why would they not run? They also turned around and ran towards the camp. Jiangxia's army, on the other hand, chased after them valiantly and spiritedly.
This was a great harvest. In an instant, hundreds of people were killed. They were overjoyed.
"Stop!" Xu Zhi did not let the victory go to his head. He did not directly charge into the Lvbu's Army camp. Instead, he walked out of the camp and shouted, "The Lvbu's Army is only so-so!"
"Damn it!" Zang Ba, who had just entered the camp, wanted to rush out and kill Xu Zhi. However, he was stopped by Lü Bu.
"You are really arrogant!" Lü Bu laughed. The ignorant are fearless. I will endure you for one more day. Tomorrow, we will conquer Huang Province.
