The sword was as bright as steel, and its power was unimaginable.
The two thousand elite wolf cavalry led by Zhang Liao were killed by this sword.
"Boom!" An earth-shattering loud noise came from behind.
Zhang Liao only had time to protect his head and face, but the next moment he was blown away by the strong wind and fell off his horse.
He turned his head with difficulty and looked behind him, and couldn't help but the blood dripping from his heart.
More than half of the two thousand elite wolf riders who followed him through life and death were instantly killed by this sword, and the remaining half also lost their combat effectiveness completely like him.
"What kind of monster is this!" Zhang Liao turned his head and looked at the towering giant in the distance, a trace of bitterness flashed across his face.
He has traveled across the border for twenty years, participated in countless battles large and small, and seen all kinds of strange talents and supernatural powers.
But I have never seen such a powerful doubling talent.
Such a giant, I'm afraid even if Lu Bu is here, he can't shake it at all.
"Long live the Immortal God!"
"Long live Allah!" The moment they saw this giant displaying its might and strength, the Huns from all directions who were attacking Yanmen Pass fell to their knees and knelt down to worship the giant.
And as these Huns bowed down, the giant's body became more solid.
He lowered his head and looked down at Zhang Liao, with a disdainful smile on his lips.
"How can an ignorant mortal understand the greatness of my lord!" The giant said with an indifferent expression, and then ignored Zhang Liao. Instead, he turned his head and looked at Yanmen Pass, while raising the sword high again.
The bright sword light emerged from his broadsword again.
Seeing this scene from a distance, Zhu Di's pupils could not help but shrink slightly, and the pores all over his body stood up instantly. At this moment, he felt the real shadow of death.
"Run away!" He roared violently, turned around and ran away.
This kind of power cannot be resisted by even a sixth-grade martial artist.
In front of giants of this level, extraordinary beings can only be regarded as slightly larger ants.
"laugh……!"
Suddenly at this moment, a series of buzzing sounds sounded in the night sky, followed by the friction sound caused by a giant object cutting through the air.
Zhu Di, who was escaping, paused. He knew this voice all too well.
This is the low hum of aircraft engines and the sound of missile launches.
"It's reinforcements, reinforcements have arrived!"
Zhu Di suddenly raised his head and looked at the sky, and sure enough he saw more than 20 missiles spraying tail flames across the sky at high speeds towards the giant in the distance.
Behind the missiles, there were more than twenty fighter jets hidden in the dark night.
This missile is the Dongfeng VI missile newly developed by Ming Dynasty.
The fighter jet is the latest second-generation fighter jet to be commissioned into the army.
As soon as he received Zhu Di's request for help, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately issued the highest instructions. In order to ensure that Yanmen Pass was safe, he directly sent additional troops from the vanguard of the Air and Space Force.
These more than 20 fighter jets are just the vanguard. Soon there will be more fighter jets and more modern arms entering the battlefield.
Compared with the relatively restrained and vigorous reform at home, Zhu Yuanzhang did not have so many worries when facing foreign enemies.
Those who are not of my race must have different minds. This is Zhu Yuanzhang's consistent thought.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom!"
Without giving the giant any time to react, more than twenty supersonic missiles exploded around him in an instant.
The shock wave caused by the bomb directly caused the giant to stumble, and the sword that had just been prepared was interrupted.
His huge body took two steps back, and then fell down suddenly.
Seeing this scene, Li Jinglong, who was piloting a fighter plane in the sky, finally breathed a long sigh of relief.
“Finally we made it in time!”
"If this guy had wielded that sword just now, the entire city wall of Yanmen Pass would have been destroyed in an instant, and King Yan is on the wall."
"If this prince has any bad intentions, it will be difficult to explain to His Majesty."
"You pissed me off!"
But at this moment, the tall figure on the ground suddenly roared, and an extremely dazzling silver light burst out from his eyes.
"boom!"
The silver light instantly turned into two death rays, which accurately hit the two fighter jets in the row.
"boom!"
Two fighter jets exploded in the sky, and even the pilots among them were not spared.
This incident shocked all pilots flying fighter planes, including Li Jinglong.
Li Jinglong was the first to react, and he immediately conveyed the order to the team members behind him.
"Everyone disperse, free fire."
"Kill this son of a bitch!"
They are all well-trained sky knights, although they have never encountered such a change, let alone fought against such a tall giant.
But as the best and top pilots, they are not afraid.
Moreover, he was hit by the giant's blow just now because the incident happened suddenly and he was not paying attention.
But now everyone already knows how powerful this ray is. In addition, before the giant launches the ray, there is silver light coming out of both eyes. Everyone is fully prepared to evade time, so this guy wants to rely on this silver ray.
It's not easy for light to hit them again.
"Da da da!"
Soon, three helicopters adjusted their shooting angles and simultaneously fired cannon bullets at the giant.
Each bullet of this kind is equivalent to the power of a small bomb. If it is shot at a person, it can directly blow the person to pieces.
Now that such a density of bullets are falling on this giant, even though he has rough skin and thick flesh, he is still a little unable to withstand it at this moment.
Moreover, he had been hit by more than 20 missiles before, and his injuries were not serious.
At this moment, the body has become more and more unreal.
"This can't go on like this!"
Kebineng shook his dizzy head. He looked at the scene of more than twenty iron birds in the sky taking turns shooting around him, with a solemn expression.
He understood that he could not hold on much longer.
Moreover, although the attack and defense of the divine body he created are very strong, it is too bulky. If it is restrained by these iron birds, if he continues to fight, when his divine power is completely exhausted, he will be in danger.
"Retreat first and figure out what these iron birds are before we talk."
With a thought in his mind, his thoughts soon spread to the ears of all the sacrifices in the entire Xiongnu army through divine power.
And he himself also began to shrink his divine power.
In an instant, the giant who fell to the ground disappeared, and the 200,000 Huns army began to retreat slowly and orderly.
"The Huns have withdrawn!"
"Should we take advantage of the victory and pursue it!" Yanmen closed, and everyone who saw this scene couldn't help but feel excited.
Some generals asked Zhu Di expectantly.
"inappropriate!"
"The Huns were not defeated by us. If we attack rashly, we will most likely be killed by the opponent with a carbine!"
"We just need to guard Yanmen Pass!" Zhu Di said solemnly.
Although the fighting strength of the Bingzhou Army is similar to that of the Huns, there are only 60,000 defenders at Yanmen at this moment.
Moreover, after three days of fighting, the number of combat personnel has been reduced by 20%. If you want to rely on these 40,000 to 50,000 people to hunt down and kill the 200,000 Xiongnu, you only need to think about it to realize that it is impossible.
If that's the case, there's no need to take the risk.
"Boss, the giant disappeared, what should we do?" Many fighter planes in the sky watched helplessly as the giant disappeared in an instant while circling and contacting Li Jinglong through the team voice.
To be honest, Li Jinglong wanted to catch up and kill the Xiongnu at this moment. After all, they had just lost two brothers.
And he was sure that the giant before was not dead,
Although it is impossible to kill him, it is still a good choice to kill the Huns on a large scale.
But in the end Li Jinglong rejected the idea.
The task assigned to him by Zhu Yuanzhang was to support the defenders of Yanmen Pass and defend this dangerous pass. He was not asked to use these twenty fighter planes to destroy the Huns' establishment.
And to be honest, he can't destroy it.
What's more, it's unclear whether the Huns are as powerful as that giant.
If he catches up, he will be attacked by surprise again, and the gain will outweigh the loss.
"Retreat!"
"When the large army comes, these Huns will be vulnerable!"
"We don't need to take risks..." Li Jinglong said.
There is no airport here, so fighter jets cannot land, so these more than 20 fighter jets just hovered at Yanmen Pass for two circles and then returned directly.
For the next two days, the Huns remained calm and did not launch any more attacks.
Even their assembly point was moved back another twenty miles.
Zhu Di couldn't ask for this.
Because every extra day they guard Yanmen Pass increases their chances of winning.
Because reinforcements are gathering here from all directions every day.
At ten o'clock in the evening of the second day after this night's battle, six thousand elite cavalry galloped from the east.
After a quick briefing, Zhu Di figured out who the leader of this cavalry group was.
It turned out to be Gongsun Zan, the governor of Youzhou.
This made Zhu Di a little dazed.
As far as he knew, the imperial court did not mobilize Gongsun Zan to assist in defense!
"This general heard that the Huns were attacking Yanmen Pass in a large scale, so I took the initiative to lead my troops here to help!"
"This time the Huns are powerful. I, the general, can't wait to die and watch the Huns attack Yanmen Pass!" Gongsun Zan said in a deep voice.
As a border general at the same level as Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan, Gongsun Zan also holds the military and political power of the entire Youzhou at this moment.
In the original history, the cavalry under Gongsun Zan was one of the most powerful cavalry in the early Three Kingdoms.
After the fall of Dong Zhuo, he became one of the largest warlords in the north.
Even when it was the most powerful, it even occupied the four states of Youzhou, Bingzhou, Jizhou and Qingzhou.
It's a pity that although this man was brave, he was also a bit stubborn. The most important thing was that he didn't know how to develop production, govern the local area, let alone win over the gentry. He was eventually defeated by Yuan Shao, burned himself to death.
But no matter what purpose he came for, he was welcome to Zhu Di now.
Because nothing is as important as guarding Yanmen nowadays.
After all, the Huns have not completely retreated yet, and the threat has not completely receded yet!
These Huns, a total of 200,000 people, were stationed thirty miles away from Yanmen Pass, and they didn't know what they were doing.
He has sent several groups of scouts to investigate in the past two days, but no useful information has been found.
Just when Zhu Di wanted to ask someone to take Gongsun Zan to rest and at the same time settle the six thousand troops, he suddenly glanced at an acquaintance.
It wasn't someone he had met, but three famous heroes in history.
"Who are these three?" Zhu Di showed a kind smile on his face and looked at the three guys in the distance who were helping Gongsun Zan organize his army.
One has extraordinarily long arms, big ears and a broad back, the other has a ruddy complexion and a big beard, and the last one is tall and strong, holding a snake spear that is eight feet long.
These three Zhu Di are very familiar.
After all, he had heard their stories since childhood.
The famous Liu Guanzhang!
Gongsun Zan was stunned when he heard this, and then introduced with a smile: "These three are small bannermen in our army. They are very capable. If the general needs them, just send them to do things."
"Okay, then let them stay!"
"I just need them to do something!" Zhu Di said unceremoniously.
After decades of experience in the military, Zhu Di cannot say how proficient he is, but he has learned this shameless skill quite well.
Gongsun Zan was stunned again.
To be honest, his words were just a courtesy to Zhu Di. Who would have thought that this guy would be so down-to-earth and straightforward to start asking for people from him.
However, Gongsun Zan pondered for a moment and finally nodded: "Okay, then the three of them will just follow the general."
To be honest, Gongsun Zan has always been a little wary of Liu Bei and the other three.
Although Liu Bei had some connection with him, it was only a superficial friendship. What made Gongsun Zan even more sensitive was Liu Bei's identity, a descendant of the King of Zhongshan and a clan member of the Liu family.
To be honest, such a status is a bit embarrassing in his army.
But because of face, he had no choice but to take Liu Bei in.
Now that he has the opportunity to get rid of these three hot potatoes, to be honest, Gongsun Zan is quite happy inside.
Soon the news reached the ears of Liu Bei and the others.
When they heard that Gongsun Zan had dumped them like this, the three of them looked a little unhappy.
Speaking of which, the experiences of the three of them in the past few years have been quite unsatisfactory.
As local powerful men, they did not have many connections either in the court or in the local area.
However, the three of them still managed to pull together a team of several hundred people during the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and used these hundreds of people to fight several serious battles and achieve some meritorious deeds.
Originally, General Huangpu Song agreed to recommend the three of them to the imperial court as captains.
But he didn't expect that after Huangpu Song returned to the court, he was demoted before he could be recommended.
Naturally, the promise made to the three of them also fell through.
After that, they moved around many places and finally joined Gongsun Zan. During this period, they had been working hard and made countless achievements, but in the blink of an eye they were dumped again.
This is so fucking depressing.
"Brother, second brother, I think this birdman never takes us seriously!"
"It's so boring to be a bird official."
"Why don't we go back to our hometown!"
"I heard that Jizhou is developing well now, and the Yellow Turban Army is gone. Let's go back and find a job in peace and quiet and live a stable life!"
