Battle Royale of the Sinners Chapter 215

Chapter 215

Chapter 215 – *Insert Lu Bu Theme Here*

One kilometer south of the battle .

Li Feihong shouted to Lu Bu as he noticed a situation up front .

"Fengxian! There's a battalion of our ally up front . They are hindering Zhang Yang Army . Do not kill everyone on your sight!"

Lu Bu chuckled, "I know what I'm doing . You drop back . The others will take it from here . "

Li Feihong nodded and pulled his reins, slowing down his horse . The other soldiers replaced his position as soon as the strategist allowing them to pa.s.s him . He withdrew out of the charging pack, trotting his horse and waiting for Zhang Liao and the others to catch up .

Because of the narrow road, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun did not charge along with Lu Bu . They took the majority of the hors.e.m.e.n and let Lu Bu handled only 2,000 soldiers . The rest of the 48,000 cavalries followed after their boss at a casual speed to save the horses' strength .

In half a minute, Lu Bu saw the crowded pack of unorganized heavy cavalries .

"HA! Foolish sc.u.ms! Men, wedge formation!"

The two thousand Xiongnu Cavalries shrank their columns from 500 hors.e.m.e.n column into three hundred while the rest followed behind their leading comrades . A long trail of a stake with triangle arrowhead was formed as they continued rus.h.i.+ng .

The formation adjustment completed in half a minute and the enemies were two hundred meters away .

Lu Bu's Red-Hare leaped onto the sky as he commanded it, and it flew over several front rows of the defending soldiers . The seven inches hooves stomped on two unlucky soldiers .

*BOOM*

Like a monster, the impact made by the 2 tons weight of Red Hare King and its armor crushed the bones of the horses along with the two soldiers .

*BANG*

The crescent halberd was swung in a half-moon motion, and all soldiers beside the crushed hors.e.m.e.n had their bodies sent flying .

The impact was as if there was an explosion!

Lu Bu ignored the raining blood and innards of the slaughtered soldiers and horses . He kicked the sides of his Red Hare, signaling it the charge into the compacted crowd .

The Red Hare King neighed in response . Its eyes glowed as it understood the master's killing intent as it also looked at other horses with despise . It wanted the s.p.a.ces for itself to run alone, not blocked by the other weakling animals .

With its armor and its killing intent, the Red Hare King kicked the ground and rushed forward .

Lu Bu grinned as he liked his horse more and more . It seemed that the horse and Lu Bu had a similar personality .

"Sc.u.m! Get out of my way!" Roared Lu Bu .

*BANG*

Another loud explosive sound of the metallic crash was heard, and another pack of men was sent flying by the crescent halberd .

*BANG*

*BANG*

*BANG*

For each second, three sets of loud bang echoed through the valley as Lu Bu's monstrous speed and power overwhelmed the defending hors.e.m.e.n .

"He's only one man! Rush him!"

*BANG*

The rallying soldier was sent flying .

"Surround him! He's isolated!"

*BANG*

All surrounding soldiers and their horses were either rammed by Red Hare King or cleaved into two .

"It should be their general! Kill him and we-"

*BANG*

Another speaking soldier's horse was shot up to the sky with its master .

"Together, kill …"

*BANG*

"We-"

*BANG*

"…"

*BANG*

Just like when Lu Bu rushed into the armies of w.a.n.g Kuang at Shangdang, he cut a path for himself and his army behind him, literally singlehandedly .

Contrary to the previous fight, Lu Bu did not exert his killing aura as there was an allied army stopping Zhang Yang soldiers for them . Even if Lu Bu was not very bright, he still valued brave warriors . From his eyes, Lu Zhi and Zhou Cang, who he had learned from the spies and Li Feihong, were brave men that were worthy of getting his respect .

Lu Bu also wanted to save these people, so he avoided causing any trouble to them .

The 2,000 Xiongnu caught up with their boss, and the wedge formation started crus.h.i.+ng the defenders .

The chaotic stationary hors.e.m.e.n formation was no match for the heavy cavalry charge . Although Lu Bu's men had to allow collisions of their horses, they destroyed the first to third layers of Zhang Yang's cavalry files .

Before Jinyang troops lost the charging momentum, Lu Bu pushed forward .

"S-Somebody, stop him!"

"STOP SCREAMING AND DIE, Sc.u.m!!" Lu Bu roared again .

*BANG*

Fear budded in the mind of the defending hors.e.m.e.n as Lu Bu's crescent halberd sent men and horses flying, splas.h.i.+ng innards and blood all over the place as he continued charging into the enemy formation .

Seeing the boss paving their path for them, the 2,000 men followed behind Lu Bu .

The charging speed reduced from the galloping speed to trotting speed, yet Lu Bu's cavalries did not stop moving forward . Their horses stomped on the dead bodies of horses and soldiers alike while they dug into the formation of their enemies .

If someone were to watch the battle from above the sky, they would have been able to see a triangle wedge digging into a tall rectangular formation in the valley .

On the contrary to Lu Bu Army, Zhang Yang hors.e.m.e.n could not move or utilize their mobility at all as they got stuck from the attack from the pincer attack . At the front, Zhuo Cang and Lu Zhi's infantries were blocking their path . Behind their back, Lu Bu's Xiongnu hors.e.m.e.n were slaughtering them .

Zhang Yang rearguards attempted to fight back . However, they discovered that their horse size was different, and their soldier skills were at a higher level .

One soldier of Lu Bu force could kill at least five men before he was injured by a counter attack . Moreover, these men kept moving forward in a wedge formation . Once they were injured, the wounded men would withdraw back into the inner part of the formation and allowed their friends to replace their position, which significantly reduced the casualty rate in the combat of attrition .

As a result, for each fifty to a hundred men sacrificed, Zhang Yang force would score a lucky hit for killing one or two of Lu Bu's soldiers .

"Move!"

One of Zhang Yang generals rushed over to confront Lu Bu .

"I, Sui Gu, will claim the head of the enemy's general!"

Sui Gu managed to get through the crowded horse formation and reach Lu Bu as he shouted . He wanted to gain some fame once he killed the general of his enemies .

In this era, shouting one's name before the fight was etiquette and also a good scheme to obtain recognition or fame .

It was a correct action if he had declared his name when he was about to fight someone else .

"NOISY Sc.u.m!"

*BANG*

The halberd of Lu Bu sent Sui Gu flying as if Lu Bu hit a golf ball, even though he managed to parry the strike . His body made an arc in mid-air and disappeared into the crowd .

If Li Feihong or Tong were here, they would have painted the background with a "NICE SHOT" message while they dressed like caddies or golfers .

As Lu Bu continued digging inside Zhang Yang's formation, he noticed arrows rain which landed a hundred meters in front of him .

The G.o.d of war clicked his tongue . His fun ride was over . Had he continue moving forward, the allied force who were stopping Zhang Yang Army would fire arrows at his troops, which was a friendly killing .

"Turnabout! Prepare to rush back!" Roared Lu Bu .

Instead of withdrawing to where he came from, Lu Bu changed his horse direction and moved to his right .

The leading soldiers behind Lu Bu's back also did a similar thing . However, they did not move to the direction right away . The charging Jinyang soldiers dug in another layer of Zhang Yang army file before they made a U-Turn to follow after their boss . This move was to give a s.p.a.ce for the following hors.e.m.e.n to move around .

Ten minutes later, Lu Bu brokethrough the lousy hors.e.m.e.n formation again and returned to where he started . His men also got out of the destroyed formation with blood-soaked armors .

Two thousand Xiongnu heavy cavalries dove in, but 1,900 men returned alive while the rest were riddled with injuries .

The lost looked significant from the first glance . However, comparing to Zhang Yang's losses, a hundred death was a joke .

Less than 30 minutes from clas.h.i.+ng with Lu Bu, over 5,000 soldiers died by the onslaught! In addition, his rectangular formation in the valley was in a mess, and one of Zhang Yang's generals was killed by Lu Bu .

Zhang Yang gritted his teeth as he watched Lu Bu retreating . He turned his attention to Zhou Cang's troops in front of him and glared at them with hatred .

'If these morons didn't stop me, I wouldn't have lost so much!'

'I don't know if you're with them or not, but since you're blocking my path, I'll kill you all!'

Zhang Yang raised his spear and pointed at Zhou Cang Army .

"Get rid of these men! Keep pus.h.i.+ng!"

Incited by the urge, the hors.e.m.e.n on the frontline tried harder .

…

Meanwhile, Zhou Cang's soldiers were in a tight spot . Thirty minutes had pa.s.sed since they started fighting and the number of his soldiers were already half . Only elite soldiers, archers, and the backup hors.e.m.e.n were still alive .

Lu Zhi was part of the cavalry unit at this moment as he was the VIP of this battle . Secondly, Zhou Cang had given them an order . If they were routed, the hors.e.m.e.n had to escort Lu Zhi out of this place no matter what the costs, including abandoning Lu Zhi's family members .

Zhou Cang, on the other hand, had joined forces with the frontline infantries to relieve his men from the danger .

Lu Zhi gazed at the frontline situation with a grim look . Lu Bu forces had attacked the rear of this army, but the geography of this valley worked against both sides as none of them could utilize their numbers .

"Sir! We're out of arrows!"

Another bad news arrived . Lu Zhi gazed at the archers at the back . They were panting as continuously shooting arrows was also as tiring as fighting on the frontline .

"HAAAA!!" Zhou Cang, who was at the frontline released his warcry and killed three soldiers with one halberd swing .

The arms of this bald man went numb a few minutes ago . His shoulders and his hands were shaking from the exhaustion from the repeated swings of polearms .

'Their general?'

In the middle of the fight, he spotted Zhang Yang .

'If I kill this guy, will the troops surrender?'

'It's risky . But I have to do my best! For my future!'

Zhou Cang broke away from the defending formation and cleaved a path to get close to Zhang Yang .

*BANG*

It was not the sound of Lu Bu launching people to the moon, but the sound of a gunshot . The bullet went through Zhang Yang's head and killed him before Zhou Cang could reach him .

Behind Zhou Cang and his defensive formation, a three meters oval portal opened, and a young scholar with a red horse appeared behind them .

Zhou Cang recognized the weapon in the scholar's hand . It was a gun that his young lord used!

Li Feihong opened a warp portal behind the line .

"Gentlemen . Please get retreat inside this portal . My name is Li Feihong of Jinyang Army . I'm here to rescue all of you . "
