Guan Yu then made arrangements.
"I don't need to bring too many troops. I will only bring five hundred soldiers to fight Ma Chao. Huo Jun will lead the archers to defend the city.
"My son can lead three thousand troops to wait at the gate. After I kill Ma Chao, Huo Jun will beat the drums and march. My son will lead the troops to charge out and win. "
Huo Jun could not find any flaws in this arrangement, so he could only say, "Lord, be careful."
Guan Yu rode the Green Dragon Crescent Blade and rode the Red Hare Horse to lead five hundred soldiers out. These five hundred soldiers were also special elite troops and could be considered Guan Yu's prestige.
Bai Xiaowen paid attention to Guan Yu. He noticed that Guan Yu, who was riding the Red Hare Horse, had an additional status: Flying General!
[Flying General: Passive. The Red Hare Horse can climb mountains and cross rivers like it is walking on flat ground. Its speed is equivalent to the peak of the awakened realm (200 points of agility). Its jumping distance is greatly increased. Increases the agility of the mounted general by 12 points. Ignores normal terrain obstacles.]
The 'normal terrain obstacles' here referred to natural terrain that was full of potholes. If it was a man-made pit, it could not be ignored. At most, it could be discovered in advance and used the Red Hare Horse's leg strength to jump over.
Therefore, this Flying General skill was a little different from Zhao Yun's Flying Horse, which was one of the four great buffs of Zhao Yun's [Solo Rider Save Master]. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Zhao Yun was able to jump out of a pit after falling into it, scaring Zhang He into retreating.
Li Shuyi said, "Guan Yu is famous for his horse and blade. He has a lot of advantages. Can Ma Chao deal with him? "
Bai Xiaowen smiled, "Ma Chao has been a Duke for many generations. His weapons and war horses are not bad. Furthermore, Ma Chao is facing Liu Bei's army and has activated the 'Vengeance' status. He definitely won't lose to Guan Yu. "
Ma Chao's' Vengeance 'status had appeared on the first day of the challenge. It still increased his Strength and Agility by 30 points each. Now that it was the third day, the two main attributes still had an increase of more than 20 points each.
At the same time that Guan Yu led his troops out of the mountain pass, Huo Jun commanded his archers to be ready for battle. Bai Xiaowen's Spiritual Detection was able to sense that there was an army hidden behind the gate. It seemed that they had made sufficient preparations to prevent the Yuan army from seizing the mountain pass.
Bai Xiaowen had expected Guan Yu to fight.
In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, after Liu Bei subdued Ma Chao, Guan Yu had always wanted to compete with Ma Chao.
At that time, Guan Yu was still guarding Jingzhou. He specially wrote a letter to come to Xichuan to fight Ma Chao. It was Zhuge Liang who wrote the letter, flattered Guan Yu, and stroked his hair (beard?) Guan Yu only got rid of this ridiculous idea after he smoothed it out for him.
From Bai Xiaowen's point of view, although Guan Yu's martial prowess was at the peak of the Three Kingdoms, he had a fatal flaw in his personality. He couldn't be considered a qualified commander.
Now that Guan Yu was provoked to fight, he was able to get Huo Jun and Guan Ping to make a series of defensive measures. He was quite strategic, but this couldn't cover up his personality weakness. No matter how strict the defensive measures were, it was still better to go into seclusion and not fight! Now, he had undoubtedly given Bai Xiaowen an opportunity to take advantage of.
When the two generals faced off, they didn't speak and galloped over on their horses.
Guan Yu aimed at Ma Chao from afar and activated his Ultimate Kill Mark!
The Red Hare was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, Guan Yu's attack power doubled. His Critical Hit Rate was maxed out, and his Critical Hit Damage increased by four times!
With a loud shout, Guan Yu's Green Dragon Crescent Blade danced in the air and slashed diagonally at Ma Chao's head!
Furious Strike activated!
Bai Xiaowen was still a little worried. Guan Yu's strongest move was the first strike! It all depended on whether Ma Chao could block it.
However, Ma Chao's Prairie Fire Spear Technique was also strong in the early stages and weak in the later stages. It was similar to Guan Yu's.
Ma Chao's eyes were wide open.
In his vision, Guan Yu's strike seemed to have sucked all the air from the surroundings, causing his movements to become somewhat sluggish and unsmooth! This kind of soul-shaking might made people unable to muster up the will to resist.
Whether it was parrying or blocking, one couldn't block the sharpness of this strike!
Ma Chao took a deep breath and suddenly lowered his body, hiding in the stirrups!
He chose the most correct solution, which was to dodge.
Whoosh!
Guan Yu's strike, which was filled with boundless killing intent, almost brushed past Ma Chao's helmet.
The dodge was successful!
Ma Chao straightened his waist and did not wait for his body to straighten up. The Tiger Head Clear Gold Spear was as fast as lightning, stabbing towards Guan Yu's chest.
Guan Yu snorted. He raised his right arm and used the long handle of the Green Dragon Crescent Blade to knock the tip of the spear away. Then, he twirled his arms and used the inertia of the first strike to make another turn. Then, he chopped down again.
However, the power of the second strike was much weaker than the first, and Ma Chao was also able to knock it away.
The two Lord-Level generals were fighting in front of the pass!
The soldiers of the two families were watching this unprecedented battle.
The normal soldiers could not see the beauty of this battle. Only Guan Ping, Ma Dai, and the other rare Lord-Level generals could see the thrill of this battle and were intoxicated by it.
The two generals fought for more than a hundred rounds, but there was no clear winner.
Suddenly, a horse neighed. Ma Chao's horse was tired and pushed him off the horse. Ma Chao was shocked and hurriedly rolled on the ground to open up some distance. He raised his spear and prepared to block Guan Yu's sharp strike.
Guan Yu raised his blade high but did not slash down. Instead, he snorted coldly and said, "I'll wait for you here. You can change horses and fight again! "
Ma Chao got up, his face twitching. However, he did not say anything and led his horse back to his camp.
Cecilia lent her horse, White Jade Jing, to Ma Chao.
Ma Chao thanked her and mounted White Jade Jing to fight Guan Yu once more.
The battle continued until dusk, and the two generals had already fought for more than two hundred rounds. However, their bravery and energy were multiplied.
Cecilia gave the order to beat the drums. The Yuan Army shouted and charged forward.
Guan Yu hurriedly ordered five hundred soldiers to fight. Guan Ping also led three thousand troops out of the city to help. Both sides fought in a chaotic battle, and both sides suffered casualties.
"Stop!" Ma Chao hollered, his voice like thunder.
Guan Yu also shouted to stop. He pointed his blade at Ma Chao and said, "Ma Chao, you can't beat me, so you want to use tricks?"
Ma Chao coldly said, "This must be my deputy's idea. It has nothing to do with me."
"If you don't obey orders and don't manage your subordinates well, how can you still be a general?" Guan Yu's tongue was really sharp. This time, he was in the right again. Ma Chao's face turned red.
Ma Chao clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "Guan Yu! Do you dare to fight again? "
Guan Yu said, "Why not?"
Suddenly, they heard the sound of a gong from Jiameng Pass. It turned out that Huo Jun was afraid that Guan Yu would lose and had retreated.
Guan Ping also advised, "Father, it's late. To guard against the Yuan Army's tricks, why don't we return to the pass and fight again tomorrow? "
Guan Yu was also worried that the Yuan Army would attack Jiameng Pass at night. He stroked his beard and said, "Ma Chao, I'll hang your head on your neck for now. Tomorrow I'll come back for it."
Ma Chao hollered, "Tomorrow it is. I'll definitely kill you!"
