Chapter 1774: Rich and Colorful

"General, look at that coalition camp, the lights are dim, but there is no defense. It is a great opportunity for us to raid!" Gu Yi pointed to the front, his eyes flashing with cunning, and said to Hua Xiong.

Hua Xiong laughed and flattered: "The teacher is truly a god of strategy. Tonight, we must let them know the power of the Xiliang iron cavalry!" After speaking, he waved his hand, and twenty thousand Xiliang iron cavalry, like ghosts in the dark night, approached the coalition camp silently.

Inside the coalition camp, Yuan Shu was lying in the tent, surrounded by several maids, busy feeding him honey water. Suddenly, a noise came from outside, Yuan Shu frowned and asked unhappily: "What is so noisy?"

A guard ran in in a panic, knelt on the ground and reported: "Report to my lord, the Xiliang army is raiding the camp!"

"What?!" Yuan Shu sat up abruptly, the bowl of honey water in his hand "clattered" and fell to the ground, shattering into pieces. He widened his eyes and asked in disbelief, "Xiliang army? How dare they?!"

The guard said anxiously: "It is absolutely true, the Xiliang army has already killed their way outside the camp!"

Yuan Shu was suddenly panicked. He put on his armor and picked up his weapon in a hurry, shouting while running out: "Quick! Quickly organize resistance!"

However, his soldiers were immersed in dreams at this moment. Suddenly awakened, they were all in a hurry and didn't know what to do. Yuan Shu looked at the chaotic military camp and secretly regretted in his heart. If he had known, he should have listened to Sun Jian's suggestion and strengthened defenses.

At the same time, Hua Xiong and Gu Yi had already led the Xiliang iron cavalry into the coalition camp. The Xiliang iron cavalry were all incomparably brave, and the long spears in their hands were like the death god's sickle, constantly harvesting the lives of coalition soldiers. Yuan Shu's army was numerous, but their combat effectiveness was extremely poor. Under the impact of the Xiliang iron cavalry, they soon collapsed.

Seeing this, Yuan Shu was scared out of his wits. He knew he was not Hua Xiong's match, so he threw away the weapon in his hand and turned to run. Hua Xiong had sharp eyes and saw Yuan Shu fleeing at a glance. He shouted: "Yuan Shu, don't run!" Then he patted his horse and chased after him.

Yuan Shu was scared to the point of peeing his pants. He looked back while running, seeing Hua Xiong getting closer and closer, and secretly called out in his heart. Suddenly, he had a clever idea and ran toward a small hill nearby. Hua Xiong chased relentlessly and also rushed onto the hill.

On the hill, Yuan Shu suddenly stopped and turned to shout at Hua Xiong: "Hua Xiong, do you dare to kill me? Do you know who I am?"

Hua Xiong sneered: "I don't care who you are, tonight is your death date!" After speaking, he raised his long spear and was about to stab Yuan Shu.

However, just then, an arrow suddenly flew from the dark and accurately hit Hua Xiong's warhorse. The warhorse felt pain, let out a long neigh, its front legs knelt, and threw Hua Xiong to the ground. Seeing this, Yuan Shu was overjoyed; he knew he was saved.

Hua Xiong climbed up from the ground, eyes wide open. He looked in the direction where the arrow flew, and saw a figure in a black robe walking slowly. That person was Gu Yi.

"Teacher, why did you save me?" Hua Xiong asked puzzledly.

Gu Yi smiled slightly: "General, don't be anxious. Although Yuan Shu is useless, he is a lord of the Han Dynasty after all. If he is killed just like this, I fear it will cause unnecessary trouble. Our purpose tonight is to strike the coalition's morale and let them know our power, not to make too many enemies."

Upon hearing this, Hua Xiong nodded, feeling that Gu Yi's words made sense. He looked at the embarrassed Yuan Shu and snorted coldly: "I will spare your life for now today!" After speaking, he led the Xiliang iron cavalry and left the coalition camp.

Yuan Shu looked at the retreating back of the Xiliang army, feeling both lucky and fearful in his heart. He knew that he was able to save his life this time entirely because of that mysterious black-robed man. He secretly swore that he must strengthen defenses in the future and must never let such things happen again.

However, after this raid, the morale of the coalition camp was severely hit. The originally loose coalition army was even more panicked, and many lords began to consider whether to continue staying in the coalition army. Sun Jian, after learning the news that the coalition camp was raided, also secretly rejoiced that he was not targeted by Hua Xiong.

Hua Xiong and Gu Yi returned to Sishui Pass with the joy of victory. Dong Zhuo was overjoyed after learning about this. He personally went out of the pass to welcome Hua Xiong and Gu Yi and gave them generous rewards. Hua Xiong and Gu Yi's status under Dong Zhuo's command became more solid.

And Gu Yi, relying on the merit of this raid, gradually emerged in Dong Zhuo's army. He knew Dong Zhuo's ambition and cruelty, but he also understood that in these chaotic times, only the strong could survive. He was determined to continue assisting Hua Xiong and contribute his strength to the future of the Xiliang army.

In the following days, Gu Yi and Hua Xiong worked side by side to face the challenges of the coalition army. Relying on outstanding wisdom and brave combat effectiveness, they defeated the coalition army's offensive time and time again, making the Xiliang army gradually rise in these chaotic times.

However, with the growth of the Xiliang army, internal contradictions began to gradually emerge. Gu Yi knew the existence of these contradictions. He began to plan secretly, attempting to find a solution. He understood that only by solving internal contradictions could the Xiliang army truly become an invincible army.

In the days to come, Gu Yi will continue his path of wisdom and struggle for the future of the Xiliang army. And the legendary story of him and Hua Xiong will also leave a rich and colorful stroke in these chaotic times. ===== CHAPTER 1775 =====
