Cao Cao looked back and saw that the man who asked for a fight was none other than Xu Chu, the commander of his Tiger Guard army.
Next to him, Guo Jia hurriedly said: "Prime Minister, Yan Liang is as brave as Lu Bu. Only General Xu can fight with him."
Only then did Cao Cao remember that he still had a tiger general named Xu Chu by his side.
Although Xu Chu was superb in martial arts, his ability to lead an army was limited. Therefore, Cao Cao usually only kept him by his side as the commander of his own army to protect his own safety. Who would have thought that Xu Chu would now be in a position where he could no longer take action.
Cao Cao naturally knew how strong Xu Chu was in martial arts. Now that he saw Xu Chu generously asking for a fight, Cao Cao, who was originally feeling a little disappointed, suddenly regained his confidence.
Cao Cao was so excited that he waved his hand happily and said: "I have Hu Chi here, so why should I be afraid of Yan Liang, a common man? Zhong Kang, I will allow you to fight."
"Don't worry, Prime Minister, the general will eventually take the head of that dog thief."
Xu Chu received the order, with bloodthirsty flames in his eyes, he immediately ordered a hundred Tiger Guard troops, roaring and rushing down the mountain.
At this time, Yan Liang was killing with great pleasure.
Le Jin was defeated in a row, and he was banned. Cao Hong was frightened away, and several Cao generals were driven back in successive battles. Yan Liang was surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, and his power was unstoppable.
Just when he was winning consecutive battles and was about to break through the inner enemy siege, he saw a group of cavalry coming from behind, roaring like the wind.
Before the enemy cavalry arrived, Yan Liang felt that the momentum of this army was very different from the ordinary Cao army.
He raised his head and glanced intently, looking through the chaotic crowd. More than ten years away, he caught a glimpse of the ferocious enemy general.
The enemy general was as strong as an ox. He was not wearing iron armor like other Cao Cao cavalry. His bare upper body was only tightly wrapped in light armor, and his muscular body seemed to contain infinite power.
The enemy general also did not wear a helmet, his messy hair was tied in a knot at the back of his head, his rough face was covered with short black and stiff beards, and a pair of ferocious tiger eyes were revealed from the furry hair.
Reflected by the blood everywhere, his eyes seemed to be burning.
While he was running, those burning eyes were staring at Yan Liang, and the big knife in his hand shone with a frightening cold light.
The strong murderous aura exuded by the enemy general was completely different from that of the other generals of Cao's army. Even Yan Liang felt a slight oppressive force.
In just a moment, the enemy general was already approaching.
However, he did not immediately launch an attack like other Cao generals. Instead, he reined in his horse and looked at Yan Liang with a cold and arrogant look.
He was so arrogant, as if Yan Liang was the only enemy in front of him, but he ignored the tens of thousands of soldiers around him as if they were nothing.
Looking at Cao Ying, how many people can be so powerful?
Yan Liang had vaguely guessed that the enemy general in front of him might be someone.
"Yan Liang, Xu Chu is here, why don't you dismount and accept surrender?"
Xu Chu not only did not rush to take action, but actually used a commanding tone to try to subdue Yan Liang.
This man's arrogance is not inferior to that of Guan Yu.
Hearing Xu Chu's words of persuasion to surrender, Yan Liang couldn't help but grin, and his laughter was full of sarcasm.
If Xu Chu had said these words of persuasion to surrender when he was in embarrassment, Yan Liang would have understood that it was a common fault of the strong.
Now Yan Liang controls the land of Jingzhou, with 60,000 armored men under his command. He has powerful generals such as Huang Zhong and Wen Chou, and top counselors such as Xu Shu and Jia Xu in the literature. His strength is comparable to that of Cao Cao.
Under this current situation, Xu Chu dared to speak out and force him to surrender. How could Yan Liang not feel ridiculous when he heard this?
When Xu Chu heard the irony in Yan Liang's laughter, he couldn't help shouting angrily: "Yan Liang, you thief, you are about to die, why are you so funny?"
The laughter subsided, and a cold light as cold as a blade flashed across Yan Liang's eyes.
Glancing sideways at Xu Chu, Yan Liang said coldly: "You can't even hear me laughing. I'm really worried about your IQ."
IQ?
Xu Chu's mind was instantly trapped by this word that he had never heard before, and his eyes were wide open with a hint of confusion.
He was stunned for a moment before he realized from the word "wisdom" that the other party was probably scolding him for his low intelligence.
"You're such a thief, how dare you——"
Xu Chu was furious, and when he was ready to reprimand him, Yan Liang rushed out like black lightning, roaring towards him.
"If you want to fight, then fight. Where did all this nonsense come from? Do you think you are making a movie..."
With a sneer on his lips, the black horse under his crotch flew with all four hooves, and in an instant, Yan Liang was in front of Xu Chu.
Accompanied by a thunderous roar, the long knife in his hand was like a sharp wind, tearing apart the barrier of the air, and carrying a billowing force, it struck Xu Chu in the chest.
This is a knife that is difficult to withstand, leaving no room for it.
Xu Chu didn't expect that when Yan Liang was sarcastic, he would suddenly launch an attack. When he reacted, the powerful sword had already swept across.
When he was frightened and angry, Xu Chu didn't panic at all. He flipped his thick arms and calmly counterattacked with the sword in his hand.
This ordinary sword also contains a mysterious power like a turbulent undercurrent.
throat--
With a heavy loud noise, the blades collided, and sparks flew into the sky, piercing people's eyes.
The two majestic bodies shook slightly and bounced several feet away from each other.
Xu Chu felt his energy and blood surge, and he took a deep breath before he calmed down. The contempt in his heart instantly disappeared, replaced by deep shock.
Yan Liang's sword skills were beyond his imagination.
Only then did Xu Chu realize that all the rumors about Yan Liang were definitely not false, and that this man's martial arts skills were definitely not inferior to his own.
Xu Chu was shocked, and an unknown anger surged in his chest.
The strength of the enemy's martial arts deeply hurt Xu Chu's dignity. He was used to being respected as the best martial artist in Cao Ying. The pride he had cultivated over the years made it impossible for him to accept that there was a martial artist in front of him who could rival his own.
Quite an enemy.
Xu Chu, who was so angry that he suddenly let out a strange and harsh roar from his nose, was like a crazy beast and immediately attacked Yan Liang like crazy.
With one move, Yan Liang's blood boiled.
After losing consecutive battles to the generals in Cao's camp, he had just met a real opponent.
But he is a worthy opponent.
The martial arts skills of the tiger idiot in front of him were the best in the world. With one move, Yan Liang knew that he had met a powerful opponent.
But, so what, after fighting against the top generals in the world such as Guan Yu, Ma Chao, and Huang Zhong, Yan Liang's state at this time has long been different from what it was before.
Facing Xu Chu's frantic attack, Yan Liang's pride surged. He opened and closed a long knife, and the blade rolled out with the force of a furious wave.
Let’s have a good fight today!
In the chaos of the army, the blades of swords were seen shooting out like flowing rainbows. The figures of the two men were wrapped in layers of iron curtains. Each sword was as fast as a sword. In the blink of an eye, more than a hundred moves passed by, and others could no longer see their bodies clearly.
Dharma moves.
The blade wind swept away, and even swept away the surrounding areas into ravines. However, the soldiers injured by the blade wind were all destroyed to pieces.
This battle between the top generals turned out to be so intense that it made the viewers change their minds.
Cao Cao, who was watching the battle on the hillside, saw that his tiger idiot was evenly matched with Yan Liang, and he was even more amazed at Yan Liang's martial arts.
In addition to being amazed, Cao Cao felt deep disgust in his heart.
At that time, Lu Bu was also so brave that he turned Yanxu and Xuzhou upside down with just one warrior. Cao Cao had to expend all his efforts to annihilate Lu Bu.
Now the shadow of Lu Bu is still lingering in his mind, but another Yan Liang has appeared. Not only is this Yan Liang's martial arts similar to Lu Bu's, but his intelligence and magnanimity are even better than Lu Bu's.
How could such a powerful opponent with both civil and military skills not make Cao Cao feel deeply disgusted and fearful?
The civil and military officials on the left and right looked at the battle at the foot of the mountain, all with frightened expressions on their faces.
At this time, Guo Jia smiled disdainfully and said, "Prime Minister, Yan Liang relies on his own strength and wants to break through the siege on his own. I think he is too arrogant. Now he has been held back by General Xu. This is a God-given opportunity. Prime Minister, please take command quickly."
Soldiers and horses, simply surround and kill Yan Liang's army. In this way, we can eradicate this powerful enemy in one fell swoop."
Guo Jia's advance reminded Cao Cao and made him recover from his sigh. So Cao Cao nodded repeatedly and hurriedly sent an order to all Cao troops to surround Yan Liang.
Yu Jin, Yue Jin and other generals then mustered up their courage and relied on the strength of their numbers to re-encircle from all directions, gradually closing the gap that Yan Liang had broken through.
In the siege, Yan Liang had fought with Xu Chu for more than three hundred moves, but the two of them still couldn't decide the outcome.
However, the momentum of Yan Liang's cavalry was blocked. What was originally an impact battle gradually evolved into a close-quarters fighting between cavalry and infantry.
Yan Liang knew very well that all of Cao Cao's more than 30,000 troops were here, and he wanted to use his superiority in strength to surround him as well.
"Cao's army is indeed Cao's army. If it were the Yuan family's army, if it had been charged like this by me, I'm afraid the whole army would have been routed. However, these tens of thousands of Cao's troops still calmly responded to the battle. Cao Cao's ability to manage the army is truly remarkable.
…”
During the fierce battle, Yan Liang couldn't help but feel emotional, but he didn't have the slightest fear. Instead, he became stronger when he encountered strength, and the sword skills in his hands became more powerful.
"Yan Liang, if you have the guts, don't run away. I will challenge you to a showdown."
Xu Chu, who was fighting fiercely, shouted loudly.
Xu Chu knew that Cao Cao was commanding a large army to encircle Yan Liang, and he felt very powerful, so he thought of something to stir up Yan Liang's spirit.
Yan Liang didn't take it seriously at all. Instead, he laughed wildly and said, "Xu Chu, don't get too proud. It's not certain who will run away first."
When Xu Chu was angry at Yan Liang's calmness, he suddenly saw a group of cavalry coming from the east, charging into the rebel army through the gap where they had not yet settled, and heading straight for Yan Liang.
"My lord, my 30,000-strong army has already arrived. Che'er is here to help my lord."
The man wielding his sword, riding his horse, and roaring to kill was none other than Hu Che'er.
In the midst of a fierce battle, when Xu Chu heard that Yan Liang's reinforcements had arrived, he couldn't help but glance eastward, his ferocious black face suddenly showing surprise.
But from the east, dust was rising wildly, with the potential to cover the sky. If not for the attack of the army, what else could have set off such a huge dust mist. (To be continued)
