In his previous life, Gongsun Xu had also been very respectful to the righteous Second Master Guan and had even specially visited the Guan Di Temple to burn incense there. His respect for Guan Yu had already disappeared without a trace, not to mention that he had already competed with the Three Kingdoms in fist and foot techniques, and had barely managed to tie with Lv Bu. Naturally, he was even less afraid of Guan Yu.

After one move, Gongsun Xu's war horse had retreated one step and a half more than Guan Yu's war horse. It seemed that Guan Yu had gained the upper hand in terms of strength, but the two people who were fighting knew very clearly that in terms of strength, Guan Yu was slightly weaker than Guan Yu — Guan Yu urgently wanted to seize the city gate, so when he used the power of his horse to slash downwards, he used his full strength in an attempt to defend, but he only used eighty to ninety percent of his strength at most, and did not have the energy to unleash.

Seeing Gongsun Xu's spear stabbing towards his chest, Guan Yu did not dare to neglect it at all, and immediately brandished his blade to block with all his might.

Unexpectedly, Gongsun Xu's spear strike was a feint, and in the middle of it, his wrist suddenly trembled, the tip of the spear quickly moved upwards, straight towards Guan Yu's throat!

Guan Yu was shocked. The blade in his hand was long and heavy, he had no time to change his move to block. He suddenly leaned back, in the nick of time, he actually made an iron bridge on top of the horse!

Clink ! The sounds of metal clashing resounded as the tip of the spear almost brushed past Guan Yu's helmet. A strand of red tassel as thick as a pinky finger was taken away by the sharp tip of the spear, and scattered all over the horse's body.

Seeing that, Guan Yu's men all shouted in alarm, and rushed forward to help.

Hou Yong and the rest, who were behind, quickly rode their horses over to Gongsun Xu's side.

After Guan Yu dodged the sinister and vicious spear, he immediately used all his strength to sit up, and a cold light once again shot straight towards his throat! He let out an angry roar, gripped the handle of his saber with both hands, and aimed at the spear's momentum as he forcefully swung it!

The slash that Guan Yu was so determined to use actually missed. After that, he cried out in pain as fresh blood spurted out from his left shoulder.

So it turned out that Gongsun Xu's spear was still just an illusion. He took the opportunity when Guan Yu was using all his strength to change the direction of the spear, and struck Guan Yu's left shoulder with lightning fast speed, leaving a bloody cut. If it were not for the fact that Guan Yu's shoulder had sunk when he was slashing with his blade with all his might, he would probably not be able to raise his left shoulder!

Gongsun Xu quickly pulled back his spear, thrusted three more times, still aiming at Guan Yu's throat. The speed of the first two moves hadn't decreased by much, and when the third spear thrust out, it suddenly accelerated a bit more.

Although Guan Yu was slightly injured, he was not discouraged. Instead, he mustered up his courage and stared intently at the tip of Gongsun Xu's long spear, finally seeing through the two spear strikes from before. When the third spear thrust forward, he ruthlessly slashed at the point where the spear tip met the spear shaft!

Gongsun Xu only felt a strong force in his hands that suddenly attacked, the long spear was bounced backwards, he hurriedly used his strength to lift his palm, preventing the spear from escaping his hands. He couldn't help but inwardly say that he was lucky. Because he had been steadily gaining the upper hand, he had been underestimating his enemy and had almost committed a grave mistake!

"Kill!" After Guan Yu managed to turn the situation around, he shouted out loudly and swung his blade at his waist. This saber strike was extremely powerful and carried a strong wind. If one were to be hit by it, they would undoubtedly be chopped in half!

Gongsun Xu's pupils suddenly shrank. If this was a flat ground, he could either leap backwards or dodge. However, at this moment, he was riding on a war horse. His spear trembled, in a split-second, he thrusted out with his spear, and with a clang, it struck the blade in Guan Yu's hand!

Guan Yu only felt his arm shake intensely, the big blade in his hand involuntarily tilted, as he slashed diagonally downwards, almost brushing past Gongsun Xu's left thigh of the warhorse, and bringing up a tuft of fluffy horsehair.

The warhorse was frightened. It let out a cry and suddenly stomped its hooves on the ground.

Gongsun Xu was shocked, and immediately extended his left hand to caress the horse's neck to comfort it. He was very clear that if he did not bother about it, the horse would immediately stand up straight, giving Guan Yu an opportunity to take advantage of it. This warhorse of Gongsun Xu's was called the Da Wen Horse, one of the top warhorses in the world. It originally belonged to the He Lian, and after the War of Tanhan Mount, it even 'gifted' many things to Gongsun Zanfuzi, including this black horse named 'Hei Yun'.

Not only did he not stand up again, he instead bent over and kicked the right front leg of the horse he was on ruthlessly! With his left leg, he kicked the horse in front of him ruthlessly!

At the moment, the red rabbit horse was still in Lv Bu's hands, and Guan Yu was only mounted on a mediocre warhorse.

Caught off guard, Guan Yu almost tripped and fell off his horse. Fortunately, he was good at riding, but he was not alarmed by the chaos. He grabbed onto the horse's abdomen with both hands and raised the reins in his left hand, forcing the horse to stop. However, before he could rejoice, he suddenly saw from the corner of his eyes a cold ray of light charging straight towards his ribs. He did not need to think to know that it was Gongsun Xu who had seized the opportunity to attack.

At this time, Guan Yu had just stabilized himself, and his horse had also just stopped in its tracks. It was too late for him to dodge or even raise his blade to block, the situation was extremely dangerous.

Guan Yu's men cried out once again, and the seven to eight people that were closest to him jumped off their horses and rushed forward, trying to block the spear for him. Actually, they also knew that this was just a futile action. After all, they were still five or six steps away from Guan Yu, and her spear would stab into him in the next instant.

The White Horse Camp Cavalry s by Gongsun Xu's side also quickly rushed forward, prepared to intercept and kill the few people who pounced on them.

Right at this moment of crisis, Guan Yu decisively threw away the blade in his hand, and used both of his hands to grab onto the last bit of the spear tip!

Pfft! The spear still pierced through Guan Yu's ribs! However, because of the protection from the bottom of the armor and the fact that Guan Yu had blocked most of the force, although the spear had pierced his ribs, it had only penetrated his flesh. His body stopped an inch or so deep, so he only suffered a little superficial wound.

Gongsun Xu frowned, he wanted to pull back his spear, but Guan Yu's blade was already out of his hands, as long as he retracted his spear and attack, Guan Yu would not be able to resist at all.

Guan Yu obviously understood this point as well. As a result, he tightly clenched his fists and refused to let go no matter how hard Gongsun Xu tried.

The two of them exerted some strength on their hands and their bodies began to exert it. The warhorses below them felt a huge pressure and their hooves kicked the ground continuously, as if they would fall to the ground at any moment. The two men on horseback remained unmoved. They stared at each other fiercely and used all their strength to try to snatch the pikes from each other's hands.

Gongsun Xu suddenly roared out explosively, his legs fiercely gripped the horse's abdomen as the black cloud beneath him understood what he meant and suddenly shot forward!

Guan Yu's strength was slightly weaker than Gongsun Xu's to begin with, and now that the other party had borrowed the strength of his horse, he only felt a strong force being transmitted over. In an instant, both his palms and arms were in extreme pain, and he could no longer hold onto the spear. But since he was in a life or death situation, Guan Yu thought very quickly. After giving away the spear, he jumped off the horse and pounced on Gongsun Xu.

Caught off guard, Gongsun Xu threw his spear to the side and ruthlessly punched towards Guan Yu's ribs as he fell from the horse. Boom!

The punch hit right in Guan Yu's face, causing him to groan in pain. Then, another punch landed on Gongsun Xu's left cheek.

Bang! In the next moment, both of them fell to the ground at the same time. After releasing their hold on each other, they began to roll around on the ground.

Gongsun Xu rolled three or four times before he quickly steadied himself and stood up. He pounced towards Guan Yu like a tiger.

Guan Yu also just in time to stand up, and angrily shouted as he went forward.

The two of them exchanged punches and kicks as they fought with each other. The muffled sounds of fists and legs landing on their bodies rose and fell one after another.

The seven to eight people who pounced over were not so lucky. They were killed in the air by the White Horse Camp Cavalry who came forward to welcome them, and died one after another without even waiting for them to land on the ground.

At this time, Gongsun Xu's and Guan Yu's men quickly stopped. The main generals of both sides were already fighting with each other, and they basically did not dare to take action, because even the slightest mistake could cause harm to their own generals.

"Crossbow ready!" Hou Yong gave a command, and all the White Horse Camp Cavalry near the city gate picked up their crossbow, and aimed it at the enemy troops.

Guan Yu fiercely punched Gongsun Xu, forcing him to retreat. In a hurry, he turned his head and shouted: "Quickly, rush up to seize the city gate!"

Immediately, three to four hundred people raised their weapons and rushed forward like a swarm of bees.

Taking the chance when Guan Yu turned his head to shout, Gongsun Xu suddenly kicked Guan Yu's left knee. The latter immediately lost her balance, staggered two or three steps back, and sat on the ground with a thump.

Gongsun Xu laughed as he rushed forward and kicked Guan Yu in the chin.

Guan Yu rolled on the ground to avoid this fatal kick, and his right hand grabbed Gongsun Xu's left leg with lightning speed and twisted forcefully.

Gongsun Xu immediately lost his balance and fell to the side. The moment he fell on the ground, his right leg fiercely kicked Guan Yu's shoulder.

The kick was extremely powerful and Guan Yu's right hand could not help but loosen up as it rolled towards one side.

Gongsun Xu crawled up, and rushed to kick Guan Yu hard. He looked like he was fighting on the street, without any sign of being a great general.
