"General Huang Zhong, Guan Yu has already started calling for formation outside the city.
This battle is entirely entrusted to you!
Remember, you don’t have to ask to defeat Guan Yu, as long as the general can hold him back until the other fronts decide the winner, that’s enough!”
Guan Yu has already gone to war, so of course Lu Meng has to send Huang Zhong out for the sake of him.
Among the Chu army, Huang Zhong is the only one who can defeat Guan Yu.
According to Lu Meng's calculations, as long as Huang Zhong can block Guan Yu, the Han army will be defeated in this battle!
Nothing else!
It's just because Tan Xiong's side is really about to decide the winner.
As long as Tan Xiong wins, the pressure on Chu generals on other fronts will be relieved.
At that time, no matter who Tan Xiong helps, he will gain an advantage. In the end, the advantage will be expanded step by step until the Han army is completely defeated.
"Nanyang Huang Zhong!"
After receiving Lu Meng's order, Huang Zhong had nothing to say.
Facing Guan Yu, Huang Zhong has also been famous for a long time, but he has never been able to fight against him.
Now, in his seventies, he can still fight against such a world-famous general, and Huang Zhong's face is flushed with excitement.
Both of them are generals, so there is no need to mock each other like juniors to boost morale.
Seeing Huang Zhong go to battle, Guan Yu also understood Lu Meng's plan.
In this regard, Guan Yu's only way to defeat the enemy is to defeat Huang Zhong as soon as possible.
At the very least, we must capture Huang Zhong before our own side is defeated across the board.
Otherwise, this battle will probably drag the Jingzhou Army into the grave of defeat.
Yes, Guan Yu has now completely guessed all Lu Meng's plans.
This guy has such a big appetite that he wants to devour the entire 250,000 Jingzhou army in one bite.
Otherwise, Lu Meng would never have led his army to seize Jiangxia to cut off Guan Yu's retreat.
This guy is just engaging in a fight.
What I know is that before Guan Yu ran out of food, he couldn't conquer Shouchun at all.
Now, Lu Meng has won most of the battle.
Guan Yu is indeed going to run out of food.
As for Lu Meng’s next plan? There’s no need to guess.
This is bound to block Guan Yu's return in Jiangxia.
By then, the Jingzhou army's combat effectiveness will only continue to decline with low morale and depleted supplies.
Don't forget that behind Guan Yu, there are tens of thousands of Yangzhou troops, and there are also tens of thousands of Chu navy.
When Guan Yu's army ran out of food and had no way to retreat, how could the Yangzhou army not come up to take advantage and encircle Lu Meng?
Now, Guan Yu has fallen into Lu Meng's trap step by step.
The only way left for Guan Yu now is to defeat it with force!
As long as Guan can defeat Huang Zhong in the shortest time, he can then help the Han generals win the battle.
Then the Jingzhou army will definitely be able to take advantage of the situation and conquer Jiangxia in one fell swoop.
You know, morale is something that always waxes and wanes.
However, Guan Yu overestimated himself and underestimated Huang Zhong.
In order to win quickly, Guan Yu used the essence of his lifelong swordsmanship to fight his horse and charge forward. He used his momentum to control the force of his sword and killed the enemy general with one blow.
Seeing Guan Yu's sword coming towards him, full of killing momentum, Huang Zhong's face turned pale, and the sword in his hand showed no sign of weakness, and he faced the oncoming Qinglong Saber.
"Dang!"
The two knives collided with a loud bang.
Huang Zhong's face became even more rosy, as if he was about to reach the level of Guan Yu's natural red face.
Looking back at Guan Yu, although there was no change in his face at all, looking at the surprised look in his red and phoenix eyes, one could tell that Guan Yu was definitely not at peace in his heart.
This! This is the essence of my lifelong swordsmanship!
Even if the fierce general Wei Yan wants to resist his sword, he will probably have to pay a lot of price.
But this Huang Zhong actually blocked his attack without any hindrance.
My family knows their own affairs.
Although Huang Zhong looked extremely lustful, Guan Yu knew it in his heart.
I didn't gain any advantage in this blow.
"Hahaha! Okay! As expected of Guan Yu! As expected of the quick sword technique!
Now, it’s my turn!”
The surging energy and blood was restored, Huang Zhong swung his long sword horizontally, and used his continuous offensive like a tide against Guan Yu.
This time, Guan Yu felt uncomfortable.
Although Huang Zhong's sword skills are not very lethal, it is not difficult for Guan Yu to deal with them.
but!
Now Guan Yu is just scrambling for time, wanting to capture Huang Zhong quickly and then help his own generals.
But when Guan Yu was enveloped by Huang Zhong's sword, he had no choice but to fall into Huang Zhong's rhythm and was unable to get rid of him.
Even Guan Yu couldn't defeat Huang Zhong even if he tried to get injured.
You know, Huang Zhong is now in his sixties, but he has been immersed in this sword technique all his life.
The power of his sword has already reached perfection.
The more eager Guan Yu was to get rid of Huang Zhong, the more he fell into Huang Zhong's attacking rhythm.
Damn it! If this continues, something will happen to our generals!
Liu Pan had already fallen into a passive position before he went into battle. If the delay continued, Guan Yu would not believe how Tan Xiong would be able to resist after Tan Xiong defeated Liu Pan.
You must know that although the generals of the Han army have a slight upper hand at this time, it is only a balance of power and cannot break the deadlock!
It seems that the only option is to resort to Guan’s knife-drag trick!
The so-called dragging the sword tactic is nothing more than pretending to be defeated and running away. When the enemy is chasing him, Guan Yu will instantly pick up the Qinglong sword dragged behind him and take advantage of the situation to kill the pursuer.
Guan Yu can be said to have tried this technique repeatedly.
Of course, there are not times when things fail.
At least when facing Xiang Ji, Guan Yu would never dare to use this trick.
After all, the difference in strength is too big. If you use this move, you may end up having your head chopped off before the knife can be lifted.
Guan Yu did it as soon as he thought of it, and he did not hesitate. Then when the two generals were fighting against each other, he clamped his legs and frantically urged the horse under his crotch to leave the battle group.
"Guan Yu, please leave!"
Seeing that Guan Yu wanted to get rid of his entanglement, Huang Zhong was naturally anxious.
Hum hum, old man, just chase him. As long as you chase him, that's when Guan will fight back!
Historically, Guan Yu won the battle with Huang Zhong by relying on the drag-and-knife tactic.
However, because of Xiang Ji's arrival, history has changed.
Huang Zhong was indeed determined to chase Guan Yu, but the war horse under his crotch was an old horse that had been following him for many years. After fighting for a long time, his physical strength was already exhausted.
He suddenly speeded up to catch up, but the result was a bad move, and Huang Zhong almost missed the mark.
Seeing Guan Yu running further and further away, Huang Zhong became very worried.
Of course, Huang Zhong was not the only one who was anxious, Guan Yu was also very anxious.
What the hell is this old man doing? Why don't you come after him quickly?
