Chapter 440
But it definitely wouldn't compare to Zhao Yun and the others who directly participated in the first-assault siege.
He also wanted more merit points!
How could he miss it?
"Yes! Big brother! I also want to participate in the battle!"
Su Zhan on the side also spoke up at this time.
"You kid, don't even think about it! Just stay by my side! You'll have plenty of opportunities in the future!"
"Only when you break through to the Gangjin Realm will I feel at ease letting you go out to lead an army alone and be at the forefront, understand?"
Su Xuan first glared at Su Zhan, and after seeing Su Zhan nod, he was satisfied. Then he looked at Xu Chu and said: "As for Zhongkang, I agree to your request!"
"You lead 500 soldiers from the Personal Guard Battalion to participate in the first-assault siege with you!"
He really couldn't ignore Xu Chu's request.
"Yes!"
Xu Chu was overjoyed, hurriedly stood up excitedly, and then said happily: "Then my lord! I'll go prepare now?"
He was worried that if he was late, he wouldn't even get any soup.
He knew too well how terrifying animals like Huang Zhong and the others were.
If he hadn't broken through to the Heaven-Man Realm yet, he would have competed with them regardless of the cost.
"Hmm! Go! Go!"
Su Xuan waved his hand with a smile.
"Yes!"
Xu Chu immediately left quickly with a happy face.
"Let's go! Let's go watch the battle!"
Su Xuan then stood up, greeted Guo Jia and Su Zhan, left the commander's tent, and led the remaining troops to the outside of Yique Pass.
"Kill!!!"
Soon, all the siege equipment built over the past month was arranged.
Five wide floating bridges were built quickly.
Then, various siege equipment passed through these floating bridges safely, advanced quickly, and soon arrived under Yique Pass.
High-level siege ladders combined with arrow towers were leaned directly against the city walls.
Then, the gates opened, and Huang Zhong and the others took the lead, directly leading the army to charge out and easily climbed onto the city pass.
Waving the weapons in their hands, they slashed out terrifying strikes, clearing the surrounding enemy soldiers.
Then, more enemy troops tried to swarm up and drive Huang Zhong and the others down.
Unfortunately, more and more soldiers of Su Xuan's army had already climbed onto the city walls.
"Form the military formation!!"
"Kill!!"
Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, and the others connected with the soldiers climbing the city, formed military formations, and began to continuously slaughter the enemy troops, expanding their results.
"Thief general, don't be arrogant! Zhang Xiu is here!!!"
At this time, a young general charged directly toward Zhao Yun's side.
"Oh?"
Zhao Yun saw this, his eyes lit up, and he immediately led the army to meet him.
"Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix!!! X2"
"Ding ding ding ding!!!!"
The next moment, Zhao Yun and Zhang Xiu simultaneously unleashed the Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix Spear technique.
Waving their iron spears at a terrifying speed, they continuously collided with each other.
Compared to Zhao Yun's ease, Zhang Xiu felt extreme pressure. He looked at Zhao Yun with shock and confusion, and while attacking, he shouted: "Who are you? Why do you also know the Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix Spear technique?"
"Haha!"
Zhao Yun laughed loudly, and while attacking, replied: "I am Zhao Zilong of Changshan!"
"You are Zhao Yun?"
Zhang Xiu was shocked: "You are in the Heaven-Man Realm?"
"Not good!"
Zhang Xiu immediately understood that he was probably far from being the opponent's match. The reason he could fight to a draw now was clearly that the other party was holding back.
It was probably related to the Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix Spear technique.
But Zhang Xiu didn't dare to gamble. While fighting, he began to choose to retreat, preparing to use soldiers to hold Zhao Yun back.
Seeing if he could use people to pile Zhao Yun down.
Otherwise, relying on himself, once Zhao Yun got serious, he feared he wouldn't last five rounds under Zhao Yun's hands.
"Don't be afraid!"
Zhao Yun saw his thoughts and motives, and smiled: "My master is Tong Yuan. You should also be the master's disciple, right? I should actually call you senior fellow apprentice!"
"Senior fellow apprentice, Dong Zhuo is tyrannical and lawless. Why don't you abandon the darkness and turn to the light, and follow me to serve my lord?"
"Is it really so?"
Zhang Xiu was stunned: "You really are the master's disciple, my junior fellow apprentice!"
"I didn't expect the master to have taken in such a monstrous disciple as you;"
"He has always wanted to take in an excellent disciple to inherit his mantle, and at the same time, he hoped to find a way to break through to the Heaven-Man Realm through his disciple;"
"I imagine he is very pleased with you, right?"
As for himself, he had disappointed his master.
But now, he was just a super-first-class warrior at the peak of the Danjin Realm.
He hadn't even achieved the Gangjin Realm yet.
And Zhao Yun?
Looking much younger than him, yet he was already in the Heaven-Man Realm.
People really can't be compared!
"Perhaps!"
Zhao Yun shook his head: "Since I left the mountain to finish my apprenticeship, I haven't seen the master again!"
"I don't know if he knows I've broken through to the Heaven-Man Realm!"
"Does senior fellow apprentice know the master's whereabouts?"
While speaking, Zhao Yun had already swept away the people Zhang Xiu sent and forced Zhang Xiu into a corner.
Zhang Xiu's face was very ugly, his eyes darting around, trying to find a breakthrough to escape.
He didn't forget to reply, trying to delay time: "... I don't know! Since I finished my apprenticeship, I haven't seen the master again! It's been more than ten years!"
"Is that so?"
Zhao Yun nodded knowingly, condensed Gang Qi on the tip of his spear, looked solemn, and looked at Zhang Xiu: "Since that's the case, I won't delay any longer. Senior fellow apprentice, you should stay!"
The next moment, Zhang Xiu only felt a blur before his eyes, and Zhao Yun had already arrived in front of him, no more than half a meter away.
Immediately after, he felt his hand go numb, and the spear in his hand was knocked to the ground.
Before he could make any other moves, he felt a pain in his neck, his eyes went black, and he lost consciousness.
"Tie him up! Take good care of him!"
Zhao Yun ordered the soldiers behind him and left a few soldiers there.
He himself led the remaining soldiers to continue charging and expanding the results.
"Xiu'er!!!"
Zhang Ji in the distance happened to see the scene where Zhang Xiu was captured, and his eyes were about to split.
He tried to rush over to save Zhang Xiu.
Because he had no offspring, this was his only nephew.
He had always raised Zhang Xiu as his own son.
How could he watch him get into trouble?
However, Hu Che'er on his side directly grabbed Zhang Ji and advised: "My lord! Don't go! We can't beat them!"
"I saw it, the young lord is fine! Also, I heard that the young lord and that Zhao Zilong are senior and junior fellow apprentices. Since he chose to capture the young lord alive, he definitely won't harm his life;"
"Let's retreat! I'm afraid Yique Pass can't be held!"
