Chapter 262: Repelling Guo Si, Stationing in Jinxiu 《Please Subscribe!!!》
"Guo Si! It's actually him!"
Upon hearing this, Su Li's gaze flickered slightly.
Guo Si could be considered one of the major generals under Dong Zhuo's command.
Su Li and Yuan Jin arrived on the city wall to observe Guo Si's cavalry below.
"I am Su Li, Lord of White Cloud City, and I am stationing troops here. Since you are Dong Zhuo's subordinates, leave at once, or bear the consequences yourself!"
Su Li's strength was comparable to a peerless warrior; if he wished, he could also make his voice sound like thunder.
The Xiliang Army erupted in a clamor; even Guo Si could not help but be moved.
After all, Su Li was one of the military generals personally appointed by He Jin to suppress the Liangzhou rebels, while he, Guo Si, was merely a subordinate general of Dong Zhuo.
Setting aside official rank, just this reputation alone made him three parts weaker.
However, Guo Si would not retreat just like that. He said with dissatisfaction, "Since when has Lord Su been stationing troops here? Could it be because you have a beauty in your arms? Why not let us Xiliang soldiers enter the city to rest?"
"..."
Yuan Jin, having heard Guo Si's words, turned cold as frost. These words made it sound as if she were Su Li's intimate companion.
"Where I, Su, station my troops is something even your master Dong Zhuo cannot control, let alone you. If you are not convinced, feel free to attack the city."
Facing the arrogant Guo Si, Su Li responded with an even more overbearing tone.
Guo Si hesitated for a moment. With Su Li's status, plus the fifty thousand Han troops allocated by Zhang Wen, the small force he had brought might not necessarily be able to defeat Su Li.
But to retreat just like that would truly be a loss of face.
Finally, Guo Si hesitated, looking at Su Li on the city wall with a gloomy expression: "I have heard that Lord Su once killed Zhang Jiao and others and crushed the Black Mountain bandits. I assume your martial arts must be superb. I wonder if I might request a few pointers?"
"It seems that if I don't accept Guo Si's challenge, today will not end well."
Hearing this, Su Li raised his eyebrows slightly and signaled to Zhao Yu beside him.
With the tacit understanding between the two, there was no need to say anything. Zhao Yu held her Fire Phoenix Bright Gold Spear and leaped down from the ten-meter-high city wall.
"A mere subordinate general dares to challenge Big Brother? Get past me, Zhao Yu, first!"
Before she even reached him, Zhao Yu unleashed a flurry of spear blossoms, attacking Guo Si.
However, this scene, in Guo Si's eyes, made him laugh out loud, "Heh! It seems the recently famous Lord Su is nothing more than this, actually letting a female general under your command fight for you. It's simply laughable..."
Yet, before he could finish his words, they were forced to stop in his throat.
Because the spear blossoms Zhao Yu unleashed were not ordinary ones; the moment she struck, it was a spear-type martial technique.
Meteor Fire Rain!
The instantly formed sky-filling flaming spear radiance swept toward Guo Si.
Looking at the power of those spear radiances carrying flames, how could Guo Si not understand that the female general before him was a true expert?
Guo Si could only secretly cry out that it was bad. Because of his earlier contempt, he had lost the chance to unleash a martial technique and could only subconsciously draw the heavy blade in his hand to block in a hurry.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
However, with Guo Si's strength, how could he withstand Zhao Yu's martial technique with mere ordinary attacks?
He was instantly sent flying by the continuous flaming spear radiance unleashed by Zhao Yu.
His entire body flew backward, crashing into the Xiliang cavalry behind him. Many cavalrymen were affected, and men and horses were overturned!
The female players on the Jinxiu Town city wall saw this and immediately cheered, "The female general is mighty!"
Displaying such powerful combat strength as a woman, she simply became an idol for this group of female players.
Guo Si scrambled up from the ground, blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
Zhao Yu's strength was originally a bit higher than Guo Si's, and with Guo Si caught off guard, he was directly injured by Zhao Yu's strike.
Guo Si wiped the fresh blood from the corner of his mouth, still unconvinced: "The little wench ambushed me, lacking martial virtue! Next, I will get serious!"
Guo Si began to erupt with power, his right foot stomping the ground, causing it to shake!
"Go to hell!"
Snatching up the heavy blade in his hand, Guo Si channeled all his strength, took a large step forward, and slashed at Zhao Yu!
He wanted to regain his standing with lightning speed.
Zhao Yu naturally remained calm. The Fire Phoenix Bright Gold Spear in her hand moved like a fire phoenix spreading its wings, and over a hundred layers of spear shadows covered Guo Si!
Guo Si's offensive rhythm was immediately interrupted by Zhao Yu; his vision was filled with flame-like spear shadows, dazzling and confusing.
The two weapons clashed instantly, and in a few moments, they had fought several rounds!
Different military generals also have detailed classifications.
Guan Hai is a strength-type fierce general, Zhou Cang is a defense-type general, and Zhao Yu is a speed-type general.
Guo Si was clearly also a strength-type general. If his strength were higher than Zhao Yu's, he could completely overcome ten thousand techniques with one force.
But Guo Si did not have such strength. Facing Zhao Yu's rapid counterattacks, he soon became flustered.
If he hadn't been injured, Guo Si might have been able to trade blows with Zhao Yu.
However, after being injured, Guo Si could not only not exert his full strength, but even his movements were much slower.
After ten rounds, Zhao Yu had completely suppressed Guo Si.
"Damn it..."
"Let's go!"
After another weapon clash, Guo Si deliberately retreated a distance.
Then, without any hesitation, he directly ordered a retreat.
There was no choice; if he continued to fight, he would likely be defeated by the enemy.
At that point, it wouldn't be as simple a matter as just retreating.
"Consider yourself lucky to run fast!"
Zhao Yu muttered indignantly, but she did not pursue, returning instead to Jinxiu Town.
"Well done!"
Su Li patted Zhao Yu on the shoulder to show his appreciation.
"That guy's strength isn't high, but he runs quite fast."
Zhao Yu said, still feeling like the battle was unfinished.
Ever since the Black Mountain Army, she hadn't made a move for a long time.
"There are still a few days before you have the decisive battle with the Liangzhou rebels. You should stay for a few more days... otherwise, what if Guo Si returns?"
Yuan Jin looked at Su Li.
Su Li was indeed somewhat handsome, and combined with his own strength, this was an important reason why Yuan Jin took the initiative to contact Su Li.
"Alright!"
Su Li thought for a moment and agreed.
In any case, Jinxiu Town was quite close to Huaili City, so staying here for a few more days wouldn't hurt.
