Xia Houyuan noticed Xu Chu's sword, his eyes were sharp, and he quickly blocked it with his sword.
clang!!
The blades collided together and sparks flew everywhere.
Kick! Kick!
Xia Houyuan was hit by the force and retreated one after another. As soon as he retreated, Xu Chu gained the upper hand and charged forward with a long stride, swinging his sword sideways. The ring-headed sword was packed with shocking power and fell like lightning.
Xia Houyuan had just stood firm and had no time to dodge, so he could only quickly block with his sword again.
The weapon struck again, and the impact was deafening.
The power of the explosion burst out, causing Xia Houyuan's hand holding the knife to tear open, and his body was surging with energy and blood. He stumbled and fell to the ground. In the novel, Xia Houyuan and Huang Zhong fought, and Huang Zhong was extremely old. At that time, Xia Houyuan
He fought with Huang Zhong for more than twenty times and was killed.
Now Xia Houyuan was facing Xu Chu, who was at the peak of his strength. Xia Houyuan was worried about the situation. There was a huge gap between him and Xu Chu.
When the two met each other, Xia Houyuan was traumatized.
Fortunately, he was a veteran in the battlefield and had rich experience, so at the moment he fell, Xia Houyuan rolled forward like a donkey, avoiding Xu Chu who was pursuing him, and then he rolled over and stood up.
Xia Houyuan's mouth was bleeding, his energy and blood were boiling, and his heartbeat was even faster. He glanced around and saw large numbers of Wu troops charging in. When he saw the fallen Yangping Pass, he felt even more sad and angry.
"General, retreat quickly. The villain is holding Xu Chu down."
Next to Xia Houyuan, Huang Liulang rushed out with a look on his face determined to die.
"Get out of here, anyone who stands in my way will die."
Xu Chu roared angrily.
Xia Houyuan is a big fish, and beheading Xia Houyuan is a great achievement. He struck down hard with the ring-shou sword and hit Huang Liulang's blade. The sword flew away with one blow. The ring-shou sword continued to fall and struck Huang Liulang's chest.
superior.
Huang Liulang was killed with one strike.
Xu Chu rushed towards Xia Houyuan again, but Xia Houyuan's personal guards rushed out one after another.
"General Xiahou, retreat quickly."
"Let's hold Xu Chu down."
"General, retreat quickly."
The guards who rushed out shouted, and a dozen people rushed out bravely without fear of death. They were all direct descendants of Xia Houyuan. These people knew clearly that facing Xu Chu would mean death, but they had no hesitation.
Xia Houyuan's eyes filled with tears when he saw this scene. Regardless of the pain in his bleeding hands, he clenched the sword tightly and roared loudly, "Today, I, Xia Houyuan, will fight to the death."
"If you are willing to fight to the death with me, let me charge and kill you. If you are not willing, just surrender. I will not force you."
"Xu Chu, there are no cowards in Qin, and there are no timid people under the command of the King of Qin."
"Take my knife from Xia Houyuan."
Xia Houyuan was completely prepared.
Mainly because there was no chance to escape in the surrounding area. Countless Wu troops poured into the pass, blocking the roads inside the pass. The entire surrounding area was full of fighting and fighting, and he was completely surrounded.
Xia Houyuan rushed to Xu Chu's side. When his guards surrounded Xu Chu and held him back, he gritted his teeth, mustered up all his strength, and swung his strongest sword.
The blade cuts through the air and is extremely sharp.
Xu Chu had a strong body, and he was dragged by Xia Houyuan's bodyguards, unable to draw his sword. So the moment he suppressed the bodyguards, he stretched out his left hand like lightning, grabbed the bodyguards and pushed him forward.
Zhila!
Xia Houyuan's blade fell on the bodyguard.
Kill with one knife.
However, Xu Chu threw away his bodyguard at this moment, and slashed down with his sword again, "Xia Houyuan, you were able to escape the previous sword, not because you were powerful, but because you had someone to fight to the death to restrain you. How can you block this sword?"
Xia Houyuan raised his knife to block again.
A violent impact sound was heard, and Xia Houyuan's internal organs were injured again, his vomiting of blood worsened, and his body even retreated.
Xu Chu slashed with his sword again and said loudly: "This sword of mine requires thirty years of skill. How can you block it?"
clang!!
The crash sounded again.
puff!
Xia Houyuan's vomiting of blood worsened, his face turned pale, and a look of pain appeared on his face. However, Xia Houyuan's eyes became increasingly angry and irritable. He stomped back with his left foot to steady his body, and when Xu Chu slashed with his sword,
, he clenched the knife forcefully and fought back.
clang!!
The blade struck again.
The back of Xia Houyuan's sword flew away, and the cold ring-headed sword struck him on the body, breaking through the armor, diagonally downward from the right shoulder, and slashed out from under the left rib.
With one knife, blood flows.
Xia Houyuan staggered back, but he stopped his body abruptly and did not let his body fall backwards. However, his body began to shake and he could not stop falling. Xia Houyuan gritted his teeth and widened his eyes. At this moment,
, turned abruptly and faced the direction of Hanzhong.
Looking into the distance, his vision was blurred, but in Xia Houyuan's eyes, he seemed to see Cao Cao of Nanzheng. On his face full of pain, at this moment, a deep sense of guilt appeared.
"My lord, I am so ashamed..."
thump!
Xia Houyuan knelt down, but he knelt on the ground forcefully, lowered his head, but his body did not fall down.
Seven points of pain, two points of unwillingness, and one part of guilt are still on his face.
After Xu Chu killed Xia Houyuan, he roared loudly, "Xia Houyuan is dead. Those who surrender will not be killed, and those who surrender will not be killed."
"Xia Houyuan is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed."
Gan Ning, Zhang Ren and others also shouted loudly, and the surrounding soldiers also responded.
The soldiers of Cao's army under Xiahou Yuan were already fleeing continuously and lost the fighting spirit. Now that Xiahou Yuan was killed, the entire army collapsed. Those who fled fled and those who surrendered surrendered.
Yangping Pass fell after this battle!
Lu Xuan changed his robes, tied up his hair, and entered Yangping Pass with his guards. He did not interfere for the time being, allowing Gan Ning to command the army, cover up the killing, and recruit Cao's soldiers to surrender.
Lu Xuan arrived at the tower of Yangping Pass and looked at the surrounding situation.
Yangping Pass is indeed a great pass.
If Xu Chu, Zhang Ren and Gan Ning had not sent out a surprise attack this time, and allowed Xu Chu, Zhang Ren and Gan Ning to fly into the pass, the price to attack such a dangerous pass would have been extremely huge.
Lu Xuan waited quietly. An hour later, when it was approaching noon, the battle was completely over. Gan Ning had already tallied the results and came to Lu Xuan's side at the checkpoint to report: "Your Majesty, we have won this battle completely.
, General Xu Chu killed Xia Houyuan. We killed more than 3,100 Cao soldiers, captured 2,200 people, and many Cao soldiers escaped. Our own casualties were 1,400
Many people were killed, mainly during the attack on Yangping Pass."
Lu Xuan nodded and ordered: "Xia Houyuan was buried in a grand ceremony. In addition, the news about Yangping Pass was arranged for sentinels to spread it out as soon as possible."
"Here!"
Gan Ning answered with cupped fists.
He continued: "The general's plan is to leave three thousand people to guard Yangping Pass. Then, we will rest for an hour and go directly to Nanzheng County. After all, Fazheng is still holding strong in Nanzheng, so we must hurry up and get there.
.”
Lu Xuan ordered: "It is enough to leave a thousand people, and the wounded soldiers are mainly left here. We captured Yangping Pass, and after entering Hanzhong, the role of this pass was weakened. According to your arrangement, take a rest
After an hour, the army set off and left."
"As you command!"
Gan Ning answered again.
He quickly went to make arrangements. He first arranged for the sentry to spread the news, and then let the soldiers rest. At the same time, he made pots and cooked rice to prepare lunch. After the army had lunch and rested, they set off again, heading in the direction of Nanzheng.
