Chapter 6
The unprepared Yuan Shu army is instantly cut open by the Xiliang Army!
Countless soldiers who had just been awakened from their dreams have not yet reacted before they die under the long spears of the Xiliang iron cavalry!
"My... My Lord..."
"Hua Xiong is leading the Xiliang Army in a night raid on the coalition’s main camp."
"Our army can no longer hold them off!"
"This general will quickly escort you away from here!"
Beside Yuan Shu, Ji Ling, carrying a three-pointed double-edged sword, runs over, saying with panic on his face.
As the words fall,
Yuan Shu, who was originally dead drunk, is instantly frightened into a state of partial sobriety.
"What is that damn thing Sun Jian doing?"
"Why would the Xiliang Army appear here?"
The first thing Yuan Shu thinks of is Sun Jian on the front line.
It is precisely because of Sun Jian’s existence that the various lords in the coalition camp are so fearless.
After all, where would a normal person think
that Hua Xiong would abandon Sun Jian and directly lead his troops to attack the coalition’s main camp!
"My Lord, presumably that fellow Sun Jian has already been defeated by Hua Xiong."
"It is possible that this guy resents you for not giving him grain and deliberately did not pass this intelligence to the coalition camp."
Ji Ling says through gritted teeth.
He is loyal to Yuan Shu and is a family general who has followed Yuan Shu for many years.
As the saying goes.
Your position determines your thinking.
Ji Ling naturally does not think that cutting off Sun Jian’s grain was Yuan Shu’s fault.
In short, in Ji Ling’s view, all mistakes stem from Sun Jian!
It is precisely because Sun Jian is not capable enough that Hua Xiong and the Xiliang iron cavalry were able to launch a surprise attack on the coalition’s main camp.
But at this moment, no matter how much he complains, it is already too late.
Seeing the Xiliang iron cavalry charging toward them under Hua Xiong’s leadership, Ji Ling has no choice but to escort Yuan Shu to flee first.
"Where are you fleeing, thief?"
With Yuan Shu’s flashy attire, Hua Xiong recognizes his extraordinary status at once.
Naturally, he will not let him go easily.
"D... Damn it!"
"Hurry up and escort this Lord away from here!"
Countless Xiliang iron cavalry are charging toward this side.
Yuan Shu is frightened into a state of panic.
And the one he fears the most is Hua Xiong, who is at the very front of the formation!
"My Lord, do not panic; Yu She is here!"
"Watch me take this thief’s head!"
Ji Ling bears the responsibility of protecting Yuan Shu’s departure, so he naturally cannot just stand out and delay time.
Therefore, the task of delaying Hua Xiong falls to Yu She.
But Yu She’s martial prowess is at most that of a third-rate warrior.
How could he possibly block Hua Xiong?
Hua Xiong swings his blade, and a flash of blood streaks across.
Sprays of blood erupt from Yu She’s neck.
With a "squelch" sound! He falls from his warhorse.
"Just this? And you dare to challenge me?"
Hua Xiong mocks with disdain.
It must be said that this wave was indeed a successful show-off for Hua Xiong.
The only expert under Yuan Shu who could compete with him was Ji Ling.
But even Ji Ling might not be able to defeat Hua Xiong; at most, they would be evenly matched.
Not to mention that Ji Ling, in order to protect Yuan Shu, does not dare to engage Hua Xiong at all.
For a time.
The wind howls, and the slaughter boils!
The roaring of the Xiliang Army echoes throughout the coalition camp!
…….
Poor Yu She, according to the original historical process, should have been able to live for a while longer.
But fate played a joke on him.
In order to cover Yuan Shu’s retreat, Yu She died early under Hua Xiong’s blade.
Fortunately, Yu She’s sacrifice was not entirely in vain.
Yuan Shu and Ji Ling have already disappeared from Hua Xiong’s field of vision.
Seeing Yuan Shu escape,
Hua Xiong is so angry that he continuously hacks and kills several Yuan soldiers who are fleeing in all directions.
Still feeling unsatisfied,
he simply leads the Xiliang iron cavalry to launch a charge toward the camps of Bao Xin, Wang Kuang, Zhang Yang, Zhang Miao, and others!
Most of these lords have also just realized that it is an enemy raid.
Faced with Hua Xiong’s fierce attack, they suffer countless losses in troops and generals in an instant, which can be described as incomparably miserable.
……
"My Lord, that Hua Xiong and the Xiliang iron cavalry have killed their way to the east; we are temporarily out of danger."
Ji Ling says to Yuan Shu beside him, panting.
To protect Yuan Shu, Ji Ling does not dare to throw away his three-pointed double-edged sword.
This leads to his movement speed being very slow, to the point of being exhausted to death.
"Hoo... hoo..."
"Damn Hua Xiong! Damn Xiliang Army!"
"One day, I will make you pay back a hundredfold!"
Yuan Shu curses in anger.
However, at the very moment his words fall,
a sharp arrow strikes toward him with lightning speed!
With a "squelch" sound,
Yuan Shu’s left arm is pierced by the arrow, leaving a not-so-small blood hole.
Intense pain sweeps through Yuan Shu’s entire body.
A pig-like scream immediately echoes through the heavens and earth!
Although Ji Ling had already used his fastest speed to shield Yuan Shu the moment the arrow fell,
he was still one step too late.
Not far away.
Watching this scene, a smile appears on Gu Yi’s face.
The arrow that just pierced Yuan Shu’s left arm was precisely shot by a Xiliang soldier at Gu Yi’s signal.
But the accuracy was ultimately a bit off.
If a master archer like Lu Bu or Huang Zhong were here, they might have taken Yuan Shu’s life on the spot!
However, even so, Yuan Shu can only lose his left arm this time to save his life.
Otherwise, a wound infection would be enough to plunge him into eternal damnation.
