Shan Meng had a straightforward personality and usually, he would make a fool of himself and his soldiers. When he wasn't on the battlefield, he didn't put on any airs, which was very similar to his father's Single Classic. Otherwise, he wouldn't have defected to Gongsun Xu's side the moment he appeared, and even allowed Shan Meng to follow beside him. In this matter, the speed at which he moved was much faster than the usual Guan Jing with his keen sense of smell and ability to see the wind.
In terms of thought activity, Shan Meng couldn't even compare to the Single Classic, but because he was simple and honest, he rarely thought about other things, and always trained himself whenever he had free time. In reality, his martial arts had already surpassed the Single Classic which was gradually growing older. It was also because of this that Gongsun Xu half-jokingly and half-sincerely made a promise to Shan Meng as the vanguard officer. In Gongsun Xu's opinion, Shan Meng's capabilities were sufficient, he only lacked experience.
When he jumped up and slashed with his blade, he did not even put Shan Meng in his eyes. In his heart, he thought that even if the opponent was quick enough to block, he would definitely be able to cut this kid, along with his weapon, into two! At this time, he was in the air, so it was very difficult for him to dodge this spear. Moreover, he had already used the move of his blade so it was very difficult for him to wield his blade to block it. The safest way to respond was to quickly retract his blade, and then quickly roll to the ground to dodge this spear.
But Xiahou Dun did not do so, and chose to go for broke!
"Ah!" Xiahou Dun suddenly roared out, he struggled to twist his neck, but the blade in his hand continued to cut forward.
Pfft! Shan Meng's spear swept past Xiahou Dun's neck, the tip of the spear cut an inch long hole, and a blood arrow shot out!
groaned, his body twitched because of the intense pain. He initially wanted to violently split Shan Meng's head off, but he lost his sight due to the pain, and slashed his sword on Shan Meng's shoulder!
The armor on Shan Meng was the latest product from Ma Jun's improved technique. It was about 30% lighter than the original Chainmail, but the toughness and toughness of the armor had increased by a lot. The high grade goods on Shan Meng's body were all streamlined, and his vital parts had all been thickened. When he was attacked, he could absorb a part of the power, and thus could better protect himself. However, Xiahou Dun was not an ordinary person. He was one of the generals under Cao Cao Cao's command, and although he was not as valiant as Dian Wei and Xu Zhu, he was still a level higher than Xiahou Yuan and Xu Huang.
The blade smoothly cut Shan Meng's shoulder armour, but he had already lost 90% of his strength and did not cut Shan Meng's arm, but the huge force released by the blade on the shoulder armor could not be eliminated, causing Shan Meng's shoulder blade to instantly crack! Shan Meng only felt that half of his body had lost all feeling, and at this time, Xiahou Dun was still in the air and had not fallen to the ground. Furthermore, he was still unable to make any movements due to the exhaustion of his strength, and if Shan Meng was at ease with his movements, he would only need to use one more move to stab Xiahou Dun to death. However, he was completely unable to move at all at this time, and all he could do was watch Xiahou Dun fall from beside him, and with a thump, he landed two or three steps behind the warhorse.
"Kill!" As soon as Xiahou Dun landed on the ground, he quickly turned around and ruthlessly slashed Shan Meng's back. He had already felt the threat of death, if not for his fast reaction, he would have turned into a corpse! The anger and resentment in Xiahou Dun's heart was simply impossible to add; he wished for nothing more than to hack Shan Meng into two halves with a single slash!
At this time, Shan Meng had not even turned his horse around, and the advantage he gained from riding had instead made his movements slow. Furthermore, he had already experienced intense pain, his entire body had instantly become drenched in cold sweat, and his face had also become as pale as paper. With just a slight movement, his wounds would be affected.
"Whiz!" Just as Shan Meng was about to lose his life and lose his blade, his family's generals and guards finally reacted. They quickly took off their crossbow s and attacked Xiahou Dun, trying to save him. The crossbow's greatest power range was around ten steps, and Shan Meng's family and the personal guards were even closer, and because they were extremely worried about Shan Meng's safety, almost everyone instantly pulled the trigger of the crossbow arrow. If they did not have the time to draw the bowstring again, they would have released all five of their crossbows, and in that instant, a total of forty to fifty crossbow arrows shot out towards Xiahou Dun, encompassing his entire body in their attack!
His archery skill was not bad, and just by hearing it, he knew that the arrows shooting at him were extremely powerful. Even though he was wearing heavy armor, he had no confidence that he would be able to withstand a crossbow arrow attack that was so close to him. Due to the distance being too close and the speed of the crossbow arrow being too fast, Xiahou Dun made the right decision in a split-second. He quickly stopped his attack on Shan Meng, covered his head with his hands, and rolled on the ground.
Bang bang bang bang bang … A series of heavy sounds rang out suddenly, and most of the crossbow bolts that were shot towards Xiahou Dun deeply embedded into the ground where he stood just moments ago. If he had continued to attack Shan Meng just now, he would have turned into a hedgehog. However, Xiahou Dun's luck was not good, because the house generals and personal guards were rushing to attack, there was an unavoidable mistake with their accuracy. Dozens of crossbow bolts flew in front of Xiahou Dun, but all of them accidentally hit his body! At such a close distance, even if it was the armor on Gongsun Xu, it would be hard for him to defend against the attacks of the crossbow, let alone Xiahou Dun, who was in an entire grade of difference in the armor!
In the blink of an eye, nine full crossbow bolts hit Xiahou Dun. Five of them hit Xiahou Dun from behind, two on his right shoulder and two on his right calf. The front and back of Xiahou Dun's armor had also become a bit thicker, so the arrow that pierced through the armor did not cause any fatal injuries, only that the gush of blood looked extremely serious. The two arrows on his right shoulder also did not penetrate his shoulder blades, the moment the arrows touched the bones, they stopped moving further in, and the real serious injury happened to be his calf, which happened to be the most insignificant injury that he had.
Xiahou Dun was also really a tough guy, after receiving such a heavy injury he still did not make a sound. He forcefully restrained the pain, supported himself on the ground with his left hand, and stood up with one leg. The blade in his right hand suddenly slashed down, slicing the person blocking in front of him into two.
"Kill him!" The people around Shan Meng quickly surrounded him, and used all sorts of weapons to attack him.
What a good Xiahou Dun, he was barely able to stand with one leg, the blade in his hand was dancing without a drop of water. With a clear clanging sound, most of the attacks were blocked, and even if some of the attacks landed on his body, he could only clench his teeth and not make a sound! There was a description of how fierce and strong Xiahou Dun was. When Xiahou Dun was shot in the eye by the arrow by Lv Bu, he immediately pulled out the arrow and shouted, "Blood of his parents, do not abandon him!" After that, he stuffed his eyes into his mouth and swallowed them, and then rushed forward and cut Cao Xing off his horse. Such a vicious action was something that very few notable generals of the three nations could do.
Shan Meng had already turned his horse around. Seeing that Xiahou Dun was actually so ferocious, he immediately riled up the blood and Qi in his chest. He bit his lips tightly, forcefully ignoring the injuries on his shoulder, and rushed towards Xiahou Dun with only one hand wielding a spear.
"Come at me!" Seeing that Shan Meng was rushing over, Xiahou Dun was happy instead. With a loud roar, he slashed a few times to force the surrounding enemies to retreat, standing with one leg, he actually took the initiative to wave at Shan Meng.
Shan Meng was furious. This fellow actually looked down on him so much, and dared to fight him with just one leg! He stared with his blood red eyes, followed suit with a tiger's roar, and raised his spear, preparing to stab towards Xiahou Dun's chest!
At this time, a person behind Shan Meng suddenly shouted: "General Dan, please wait. This thief has some enmity with this one. Let this one deal with him!"
Shan Meng turned his head around in a hurry, and saw Gao Tie leading a group of people rushing over. He frowned and shouted: "General Gao is watching the city gate properly, what are you doing here?"
Gao Tie shouted loudly: "Reporting to General Dan, General Zhao Yun has already led the army into the city, and the city gates have been handed to the General Zhao, so I have come to see if General Zhao Yun needs any help! General, this Xiahou Dun is arrogant and despotic, he has a grudge with me. Please step aside, General.
Shan Meng slightly hesitated, when suddenly, another wave of intense pain came from his shoulder. He helplessly shook his head, and ordered in a deep voice to his left and right: "Block the incoming enemies, and let General Gao Tie and this thief fight to the death!" Saying that, he turned his horse around and took two steps back.
"Thank you, Solitary General, for fulfilling my wish!" Gao Tie cupped his fists in thanks to Shan Meng, and as he galloped his horse over, he shouted sternly, "Xiahou Scoundrel, it's time for you to die! Give me your life! "
