Chen Gong had already brought a few troops to chase after Zhang Fei for more than an hour. If he was ambushed, even if Zhang Liao led a few hundred cavalrymen to help, it would be difficult for them to break out of the encirclement. After all, Liu Bei still had over ten thousand troops! However, he knew that Yuan Shu would very quickly catch up to him after defeating Cao Xing, leaving him with not much time left. If he couldn't save Lv Bu as soon as possible, he could only retreat before Yuan Shu had surrounded them, or else all of their forces would be annihilated.

A few scouts rushed over from the front, and when they were near the Leader, they shouted loudly: "Reporting to Mr. Gong Tai, ahead has been discovered a large number of Huainan Army's fleeing troops!"

"Alright!" He never thought that Yuan Shu would actually split up his troops to ambush Lv Bu together with the Xuzhou Army. However, since this Huainan Army had been defeated and escaped, this meant that either they had suddenly received reinforcements to help Lv Bu, or Lv Bu had defeated them with his godly might! He felt that his second guess was more likely. After all, other than Gongsun Xu who was still in the Xiao Pei, Lv Bu had no other allies. No matter what reason it was that caused the Huainan Army to be defeated, it meant that Lv Bu was still alive. Then, the next thing to do was to break through the fleeing Huainan Army ahead of them and rush forward to meet up with Lv Bu.

Just as Chen Gong was deep in thought, the sound of messy footsteps came from ahead, and he quickly saw a large black mass of Huainan Army soldiers approaching. Their expressions were filled with panic. Their armors were disheveled, and many of them had even lost their weapons. It was as if they had suffered a crushing defeat.

"Mr. Gong Tai, they are charging over!"

Chen Gong frowned, the Huainan Army soldiers were already two to three kilometers away from him. Although they looked to be in a sorry state, the number of injured people was extremely small, it did not seem like they had suffered a tragic defeat. He shook his head vigorously. Now was not the time to explore this matter. The most important thing was to rush over as soon as possible!

"Have the Heavy Armored walking soldier attack!"

Other than the eight hundred xianzhen camp s, Lv Bu also had a group of three hundred heavily armored walking soldier s. However, they were useless in the previous battles, and now that they had lost to a large number of Huainan Army s, it was the perfect time for them to charge into battle.

A set of heavy armor plus a deliberately heavy ring head knife that weighed at least sixty to seventy kilograms. If one were to wear a march, they would be unable to breathe after walking for less than a few kilometers. Hearing Chen Gong's order, the three hundred heavily armored walking soldier s quickly donned their armor, formed a small assault formation, and rushed forward like a sharp arrow.

A few Huainan Army s and deputy Generals of the Huainan Army were trying to gather their forces to once again surround Lv Bu. By the time they had escaped to this place, the panic of the ordinary soldiers had lessened a little. Their threats and persuasion had just begun, but they did not expect to meet another large group of Bingzhou Army s blocking their way. The soldiers of the Huainan Army did not know why Chen Gong and the rest appeared here. They all thought that they had been ambushed, and their moods which had just lightened up once again panicked, before the Academy Officer could give out their orders, a large group of people ran towards the forests on both sides.

Chen Gong was dumbstruck. They had not even met each other, yet the Huainan Army soldiers were actually fearful of the enemy like tigers! What did Wen Hou do in front of them?

The three hundred heavily armored walking soldier s were overjoyed to see the enemy troops in a state of disarray, and rushed forward while shouting loudly.

The Huainan Army's Academy Officer s were shouting as if their lives depended on it, trying to get the soldiers to form a formation to face the enemy. However, at this time, everyone was panicking, most of them only wanted to run, and not a single person was willing to listen to their orders. Seeing that the other party's heavily armored walking soldier s had already rushed in front of them, the few Huainan Army s and deputy Generals who were in the lead could only bite the bullet and bring two to three hundred personal guards to meet them head on.

Bang! In the instant that the two sides made contact, the arrowheads of the three hundred heavily armored walking soldier s pierced through the formation of the Huainan Army and advanced without any obstruction. The Academy Officer and his personal guards only stopped them for a short while before they were submerged under the torrent of iron armor.

If Huainan Army had not run in a panic, he only needed to stop the momentum of the heavily armored walking soldier's charge and these guys in metal armor would have stopped moving due to their strength being depleted, and become tortoise snails waiting to be slaughtered. Unfortunately, they had already lost all their courage, and upon seeing that the Academy Officer s were killed on the spot, the people behind them all ran to the sides, not daring to face the enemy's charge.

Seeing that, Chen Gong could not help but become absent-minded, how did the Huainan Army become such a terrible place? However, he reacted immediately. Pointing his long sword forward, he shouted, "Kill!"

Thousands of Bingzhou Army soldiers followed along and shouted, following Chen Gong as he charged forward.

Those heavily armored walking soldier s madly rushed forward, and wherever they went, the crowd dispersed like waves. They didn't encounter any kind of resistance at all.

Chen Gong led his army and followed closely behind, only killing all the Huainan Army soldiers who were running too slowly. If it were not for the fact that Chen Gong was anxious to save Lv Bu, all he needed to do was to calm down and chase them down, even if this entire group of Huainan Army s did not perish, there would not have been more than 30% of them. However, Chen Gong remembered his mission from start to finish. After rushing out of the Huainan Army, he immediately gathered his troops and rushed forward.

After a while, Yuan Shu who had wiped out Cao Xing and his men arrived, seeing the scene in front of him, he became furious, and ordered the team to close down as he gathered a few military lord s to inquire about the situation. When he found out about what happened, he was so angry that his anger soared to the sky. He immediately scolded Ji Ling who had just died and ruthlessly lashed out at the few Academy Officer s who came to greet him. He brought over ten thousand soldiers to chase after them.

Currently, six or seven kilometers in front of them, Lv Bu and Zhang Liao were fighting with all their might. The two of them were wearing battle robes and had ugly expressions on their faces.

After killing Ji Ling, he immediately charged over to reunite with Zhang Liao, attempting to rush back to reunite with Chen Gong. However, when Ji Ling and the Huainan Army were besieging Lv Bu, Liu Bei had already ordered the Xuzhou Army to form a thick encirclement. No matter how brave and invincible Lv Bu and Zhang Liao were, they were unable to defeat an enemy who was hundreds of times stronger than them.

At this moment, there were only a hundred and thirty to forty people left behind Lv Bu and Zhang Liao. These people had originally been rushing forward behind Lv Bu and Zhang Liao, but after being heavily surrounded by the Xuzhou Army, they had voluntarily formed a circular array around them, protecting them in the middle. Otherwise, Lv Bu and Zhang Liao would have died a long time ago.

Seeing that he was unable to charge out, Lv Bu could not help but sigh. If I knew earlier, I would have listened to Gongsun Zimin and left the Xuzhou! "

"It's already like this, why are you still spouting such nonsense!" Zhang Liao glared: We have known each other for so many years, to be able to die on the battlefield at the same time is not a waste of our brotherly relationship! You are the unrivalled Lv Wenhou, even if you are to die, you should at least die on the way to a charge! "

Lv Bu was stunned by the shout, and then, he laughed out loud. "Wen Yuan is right! I was confused for a moment! That's right! I am Lv Bu, even if I die, I deserve to die in a world-shaking manner, how can I be dispirited? " At this point, he raised his ancient halberd high up and shouted towards the crowd, "Brothers, do you dare to launch a final charge with me?"

Zhang Liao and the remaining Bingzhou Army cavalry shouted at the same time, "We are willing to die with Wen Hou!"

"Alright!" Lv Bu bellowed, pointing his halberd at Lv Bu who was standing 300 to 400 steps away, and roared: "Follow me and kill Big Ear Buster! Kill! "

"Kill!" Everyone shouted together, surrounding Lv Bu as they rushed forward, ignoring all the weapons that were coming from all four sides.

Taking the lead, Lv Bu suddenly disregarded the attacks directed at him and only struggled to kill the Xuzhou Army Warriors who were blocking the way. He quickly rushed out more than a dozen steps, but his body had more than ten wounds on it, his entire body was bleeding profusely, as though he had just been pulled out from a sea of blood.

Zhang Liao was not much better off, his face was cut, the skin on his left cheek was cut open, he looked extremely sinister and terrifying.

Within a short dozen steps, the number of people following behind Lv Bu had already decreased to over thirty. They were all injured, and many of them could barely lift their arms. If not for Lv Bu still roaring and charging forward, they would have lost their desire to continue fighting long ago.

"It's about time!" Liu Bei who was at the front watching the battle nodded his head in satisfaction, then laughed at Zhang Fei who was beside him: "Third brother, bring my last group of personal guards to go and meet Lv Fengxian's head!"

Lv Bu was now the last of the strong crossbow, so he had many methods to kill it, but in order to increase Zhang Fei's prestige, or perhaps in order to increase the Xuzhou Army's reputation, Liu Bei decided to let Zhang Fei go, and deliver the final blow to Lv Bu. As for whether or not he would win unfairly, this question was not even under Liu Bei's consideration.

Zhang Fei was startled, then overjoyed, he quickly replied and brought over a hundred elite guards to rush forward.

If it was any other enemy, Zhang Fei would very likely refuse to take this advantage. However, right now, he was facing a Lv Bu who hated him to the bones, so he had absolutely no intention of refusing. As long as we kill Lv Bu, no matter what methods we use, it won't matter!

Zhang Liao had killed an enemy with a single slash. When he raised his head and saw Zhang Fei leading his men and rushing over, he immediately shouted to Lv Bu who was in front of him: "Feng Xian, the Ringeye Man is coming over!"

Lv Bu laughed: "Good one! I am happy to be able to drag Ringeye Man down to hell with me! " With that, he turned to Zhang Fei and shouted: "Ringeye Man, you call yourself a hero, do you dare to fight with me one-on-one?"

Zhang Fei hesitated for a moment, then bellowed: "Third surnamed servant, you are a despicable and disloyal person, what qualifications do you have to fight with me one on one? [If you get off the horse and get down quickly, I promise I will leave you a whole corpse!] If you resist to the end, you will be chopped into pieces! "

"Bah!" Lv Bu spat on the ground, and laughed out loud: "Shameless bastard, how dare you spout nonsense in front of me! "Die!" With that, he stabbed the red rabbit horse ruthlessly in the butt with the ancient halberd.

The red rabbit horse let out a long hiss and burst out its last bit of potential, burying its head as it fiercely charged forward.

Zhang Liao and the rest did the same as they followed suit and rushed forward.
