Chapter 57 Proud of the Thousand Army

The east is whitening, and the sky is getting brighter.

When the first ray of morning glow rose, the west side of Biyang City was already layer upon layer filled with soldiers and horses.

Guan Yu was riding a red rabbit horse, with his sword drawn across the horse, his red phoenix eyes half open and half closed, showing a lonely aura, coldly scorning the enemy city.

The flags behind him rolled like waves, and the big red flag with the word "Guan" in it was extremely dazzling.

More than 10,000 Yellow Turban troops lined up behind them. Since they had just been reorganized, these Yellow Turban troops still retained a strong rogue style. They were still whispering to each other as they lined up.

Wo Can's eyebrows furrowed, Guan Yu suddenly turned his head and glared angrily.

The sergeants who were whispering were so frightened by Guan Yu's power that they shut their mouths.

"Although the soldiers are not good, it is no problem to conquer a mere Biyang."

When he turned back, the proud look on Guan Yu's face returned. He pointed the Qinglong Sword towards Biyang City and said loudly: "All troops, attack the city!"

Under the command, various flags waved like waves.

More than ten big cowhide drums were beaten at the same time, and the rumbling drums sounded like thunder.

As soon as the drums rose, the ten thousand Yellow Turban troops immediately became awe-inspiring and quickly grasped their weapons.

After the second pass drum passed, the three thousand siege echelons in front began to slowly move towards Biyang City carrying ladders and pushing siege equipment such as rams.

The other sergeants who raided the formation were shouting and killing like a tide to cheer up the siege team.

At the center of the army, seeing the momentum of his own army, Liu Bei couldn't help showing a bit of pride on his brows.

"Yun Chang's ability in training soldiers is really amazing. In just a short time, he has trained a ragtag army like this." Liu Bei stroked his beard with his hand and couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.

Guan Yu, who was in the front military office, looked at the commander-in-chief who was attacking in an orderly manner, and his expression became more and more proud.

He looked coldly at the enemy city and said disdainfully: "Yan Liang, Baima will spare your life. This time, I, Guan Yu, must take your head."

At the head of Biyang City, the flags were uneven and there were not many soldiers. Several hundred soldiers were scattered along the city line.

The weakness of the defenders was in sharp contrast to the strength of Liu Bei's siege troops.

Seeing such a situation, the morale of Liu Beijun's soldiers became even higher, and their shouts of killing were even more shocking.

In a moment, the forward siege team was approaching the fort.

Just before the battle, the tightly closed city gate suddenly creaked open, and the high-hanging suspension bridge slowly lowered.

This sudden change couldn't help but make Liu Beijun suspicious, and even Guan Yu's proud face showed a strange look.

Could it be that the defenders still want to fight back?

With only a thousand soldiers and horses, even if they were to fight out, they would be seeking death. Guan Yu was only surprised for a moment before he regained his disdain and sent an order for the support team to prepare to counterattack the enemy forces that had broken out.

At this time, something happened that surprised all Liu Beijun.

When the city gate opened, there were indeed enemy troops coming out, but it was not the large group of enemy troops they imagined.

Only, one person and one ride.

The majestic body like an iron tower, riding a big black horse and holding a shining steel knife, slowly walked out of the city and reached the suspension bridge.

A look of surprise suddenly appeared on Guan Yu's face, and the anger in his eyes burst out.

The enemy general riding out of the city alone was none other than Yan Liang.

Wearing black armor and a red robe, that towering body stood in front of the suspension bridge. Thousands of enemy troops were coming towards him. They were so frightened by Yan Liang's majestic momentum that he was so frightened that he forgot to shout for kill.

Guan Yu frowned and secretly blurted out: "Isn't Yan Liang in Xinye? How could he suddenly appear here?"

Even Guan Yu was shocked by Yan Liang's sudden appearance, let alone others.

The generals on the left and right, and even Liu Bei in the central military department, were also surprised.

Yan Liang, who was about to draw his sword, looked at the shocked enemy on the opposite side with a sneer on his lips.

This was the plan he and Xu You came up with. He wanted to kill Liu Bei by surprise.

On the surface, Yan Liang only sent Liu Pi to lead a thousand troops to guard Biyang, in order to create the illusion of leaving a large army to guard Xinye and paralyze Liu Bei, so that he dared to attack the city with his entire army without any scruples.

At this moment, there are already five thousand elites in the city, and their blood is boiling, waiting to rush out of the city and commit a massacre.

When Yan Liangzheng sent tens of thousands of men to transport grain to Biyang, half of them were actually his regular troops, and war horses, equipment and other war supplies were also mixed in and transported into Biyang City.

Liu Bei's scouts only detected that there were grain transporters entering the city during the day and leaving the city at night. However, they never expected that the number of grain transporters who left the city at night was only half of the number when they arrived.

The remaining half is naturally Yan Liang and his regular elite soldiers.

"How can a mere Yan Liang stop my thousands of troops from coming? Send an order to the whole army to continue advancing and crush this thief for me!"

Guan Yu pointed his sword and shouted angrily.

Of course he didn't know that the reason why Yan Liang dared to ride out alone to show off his power was because there were five thousand elite soldiers hidden in the city.

Guan Yu did not know the inside story and was angered by Yan Liang's blatant provocation. Without thinking twice, he ordered the entire army to attack.

No matter how brave Yan Liang is, how can he stand alone against thousands of armies!

The rumble of the war drums started again, and Liu Beijun, who had woken up from the shock, regained consciousness and continued to muster the courage to attack with a kill call.

Facing the enemy troops rolling in, Yan Liang showed no fear at all. He didn't even frown. He just stood tall with a calm expression on his face.

Three hundred steps.

Two hundred steps.

One hundred steps.

The fierce enemy troops have rushed towards us like wild beasts.

At this time, Yan Liang raised a sneer on his lips and slowly raised the long knife in his hand.

That's the signal to fight back.

As soon as the long sword was raised, the half-open city gate suddenly opened wide, the rumble of horse hooves shook the sky, and five hundred cavalry rushed out.

That is Yan Liang's most elite iron pagoda.

As the cavalry rolled past, Yan Liang also rode out.

Five hundred heavy cavalry, with long spears pointed at the sky, pressed down, and the sharp blades formed the sharpest giant spear in the world, destroying all momentum and crashing towards the oncoming enemy.

The sudden appearance of 500 heavy cavalry instantly frightened thousands of Liu Bei's troops.

The arrogant Guan Yu's expression changed in shock. He never expected that Yan Liang would come with heavy armored cavalry.

"How is this possible? The scouts clearly reported only a thousand infantry, so why did so many heavy cavalry suddenly appear?" Guan Yu was extremely surprised and could not figure out the reason.

The moment he was surprised, Yan Liang led the iron pagoda and crashed into the attacking echelon of the front army like a giant black blade.

As the iron cavalry passed by, screams arose like a tide, and countless severed limbs flew across the blood mist.

These soldiers from the Yellow Turban Army were originally not very effective in combat, but they could barely fight under Guan Yu's reorganization.

Now hit by the impact of Yan Liang's cavalry, the already fragile fighting spirit was shattered in the blink of an eye.

The morale of the army collapsed, and hundreds of soldiers abandoned their helmets and armor and fled back.

Yan Liang rode his horse, wielded his sword, and led his cavalry straight in, heading towards Liu Bei's central army to kill them.
