Chapter 1112

Each of these veterans had experienced many battles and was rich in experience; their combat effectiveness was far stronger than these new recruits, and not even weaker than an ordinary legion.

Such a unit, even when facing three thousand men, had no fear.

"Kill!"

The two great armies collided violently.

In an instant, fresh blood dyed the yellow earth red.

A tragic slaughter unfolded, and the five hundred soldiers led by Gu Yi fought desperately.

Gu Yi's soldiers were each exceptionally brave; they fought ten, or even twenty, by themselves.

Before Gu Yi's soldiers, the Yuan army soldiers were like clay chickens and pottery dogs, unable to withstand a single blow.

The battle between the two sides only lasted for a brief minute before it ended completely, and the Yuan army was wiped out.

Zhao Zilong rode his horse to Gu Yi's side and said: "Mr. Gu, I have not failed the mission."

Gu Yi nodded slightly and laughed: "You have worked hard."

Gu Yi scanned the battlefield and discovered that corpses were piled like mountains, and severed limbs and broken bones were everywhere, a shocking sight.

These Yuan army soldiers had basically all been slaughtered.

Looking at this tragic scene, Yan Liang could not help but shiver; he took a deep breath and said: "I didn't expect your army to be so powerful; are these all veteran soldiers?"

Gu Yi smiled faintly and said: "That's right, they are indeed all veterans, and each one has experienced many battles. Yan Liang, I will give you a chance; put down your weapons and submit to me, and perhaps I can spare your life."

"Haha... Gu Yi, you overestimate yourself too much; you want me to surrender to you? Dream on! I, Yan Liang, would rather die standing than submit to the enemy!" Yan Liang snorted coldly.

Hearing this, Gu Yi's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he shouted: "Good! Since you are obsessed and refuse to repent, then don't blame me for being impolite! Pass my order, take Yan Liang for me!"

Zhao Zilong immediately took the order and led five hundred soldiers to surround Yan Liang.

Seeing this, Yan Liang's face looked ugly, but he still did not give up hope; he ordered the three thousand remnants under his command: "Listen well, kill for me; whoever can kill Gu Yi will be rewarded with a hundred gold pieces and be enfeoffed as a marquis and prime minister!"

This sentence inspired those subordinates of Yan Liang, and immediately they charged toward Gu Yi like madmen.

Zhao Zilong looked at these guys who did not know life from death, and a look of contempt rose on the corner of his mouth.

He drew the sword from his waist and whispered: "Kill for me! Remember, leave them alive!"

In an instant, five hundred soldiers were like wolves entering a flock of sheep, slaughtering the charging Yuan army.

Before long, the battle situation took a sharp turn for the worse; the Yuan army was routed and fled all the way, and in the blink of an eye, these three thousand Yuan troops were scattered, with only a few escaping.

Seeing this, Yan Liang was scared out of his wits; he turned his horse and galloped toward the city gate, attempting to break through and escape.

Gu Yi had long been prepared; he immediately ordered the archers to shoot arrows to block him.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Wave after wave of sharp arrows shot toward Yan Liang, forcing Yan Liang to be unable to break out of the encirclement.

Finally, Yan Liang was struck by several arrows, fell from his horse, and tumbled into the dust; he struggled to climb up, wanting to escape.

How could Gu Yi let Yan Liang slip away just like that? He waved his hand and ordered: "Pursue for me! You must capture Yan Liang; if you cannot capture him, you will be held accountable!"

The five hundred soldiers behind Gu Yi urged their warhorses and chased in the direction Yan Liang had fled.

Watching Yan Liang flee, Gu Yi was satisfied; he turned and left, returning to the military camp.

Yan Liang ran wildly all the way, and finally, he arrived at a deserted village.

At this time, he was already covered in wounds, his physical strength was exhausted, and coupled with the arrow wounds he had just received, his strength was draining rapidly.

His body had reached its limit, and he did not even have the strength to escape.

"Cough, cough!" Yan Liang coughed violently, and fresh blood sprayed from his mouth, dyeing his chest red.

He struggled to raise his head and looked around; this was an empty and desolate village, overgrown with weeds.

Yan Liang was disheartened, feeling that he was definitely going to die this time.

At this moment, Gu Yi led five hundred soldiers and arrived.

Seeing Yan Liang, Gu Yi asked coldly: "Yan Liang, do you admit defeat?"

Yan Liang snorted coldly: "I, Yan Liang, would rather die than surrender!"

As Yan Liang spoke, he raised the long spear in his hand, preparing to fight to the death.

"Good, very good; since that's the case, then go die!"

Gu Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, and his murderous intent was fully revealed.

Yan Liang closed his eyes in despair, waiting for death to descend.

But the expected pain did not strike; instead, a dense sound of horse hooves rang in his ears, and then Yan Liang heard a shout: "Protect the General!"

Yan Liang opened his eyes and saw countless black-armored cavalry descending from the sky, surrounding the village where he was located so tightly that not even water could trickle through.

It turned out that Yuan Shao's support had arrived.

Yan Liang was overjoyed and extremely excited.

"General! Are you alright?" A big man wearing armor emerged from a gorgeous sedan chair, jumped off his horse, and asked Yan Liang with concern.

This big man was about fifty years old, with a broad back and a thick waist, and a sturdy and robust physique.

He was a great general under Yuan Shu, Yuan Huan.

At this time, he had a face full of anxiety and concern.

"Nothing serious, just suffered some injuries," Yan Liang said, panting heavily.

"It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine." Yuan Huan breathed a sigh of relief, and then he shouted in a deep voice: "Men, immediately treat the General; everyone else, follow me to kill the enemy!"

"Understood!"

Everyone responded with a roar, and each soldier drew their battle blade.

Seeing Yuan Huan's gaze fall upon him, Yan Liang hurriedly said: "General Yuan, please spare my life; I am willing to submit to you, I am willing to work like a dog and horse for you."

"General, our General Yuan is wise and sagacious; how could he tolerate a defeated general acting arrogantly in front of him? Don't make things difficult for him!" a military officer advised.

Yuan Huan shook his head and said: "That won't do. This person is a sinner of my Yuan clan. My Yuan clan has suffered a great change and heavy losses. Now Gu Yi is still ignorant and colludes with outsiders to plot for the world of the Yuan clan. How can such a person be left in the world? This villain must be eradicated as soon as possible."

"I, Yuan Huan, have been loyal to the monarch and patriotic all my life, loyal to the monarch and serving the country, but if treacherous officials are causing chaos in the world, then I cannot sit idly by, let alone when this treacherous official is the enemy of my Yuan clan!"

"The General's words are very true."

The generals and soldiers echoed one after another.

"Since that is the case, I will not waste my breath; let me see if you are truly loyal to the lord!" Yuan Huan shouted.

"Understood!" The generals all cupped their fists.

Yuan Huan nodded and shouted: "Kill for me!"

Yuan Huan's subordinates raised their battle blades in unison and charged into that chaotic battlefield. ===== CHAPTER 1113 =====
