Chapter 35: The Death of Yiyang Wu (5) 2/2

  Recommendations wanted...

  The chill of death is closing in, the old chrysanthemum is tightening up. For the sake of my little chrysanthemum, brothers, give me a bit more strength, support me, okay?

  ——————————————————————————

  In the Jiunü City's Wanglou Tower, Huang Shi raises his eyes and gazes into the distance.

  "How about it? Has Wei Yan been released?"

  "It's been released for a long time, and it may have arrived at the camp by now... General Shao, I think Deng Ji and those people are likely to be in danger."

  "Hmph, if it's really like that, then I'll save myself the trouble."

  Huang Sha stretched his body and turned around to leave the watchtower.

  "Jiashi, I'm going to discuss some matters with Yuyang Lord. Please take care of things here for me. I remember that two batches of grain and fodder are arriving today, just receive them directly. I'll probably be back before nightfall, if there's anything urgent, we can talk about it when I get back."

  "Na Yiyang Tun..."

  Huang She thought for a moment, smiled and said, "Let them go. Pass on my order, no one is allowed to stop them, let the Yiyang Wu soldiers have a good frenzy. Staying in the camp for too long, it's necessary to relax... Ah, you arrange this immediately, don't make any mistakes."

  "Ah!"

  Chen watched Huang Shi leave, then turned around and glanced in the direction of Yiyangtun.

  He shook his head slightly and muttered to himself: "Deng Ji, Deng Ji, it seems that this time you have really provoked General Shao!"

  ——————————————————————————

  Deng Ji's face was deathly pale, without a hint of blood color.

  The shock brought by Yiyangwu's death is unprecedented.

  Less than fifty people, yet they revealed a tragic and brutal atmosphere of thousands of troops killing each other. The tattered armor, the gleaming spears, and those loud, earth-shattering shouts all made his heart feel an inexplicable sense of dread... These Yiyang Wu soldiers are truly elite warriors!

  Originally thought Yiyang Wu Ze was just a group of soldiers!

  Cao Peng did not expect Huang She to throw them into a group of fierce soldiers.

  The old horse beside him, under the pressure of that military force, let out a loud and unending whinny. If not for Cao Peng's tight grip on the reins, this horse would probably have been startled...

  Deng Ji and Wang Bu's two horses beside them also seemed somewhat restless.

  Shaking its head and swinging its tail, it occasionally lets out a loud snort, its front hooves constantly stomping the ground.

  They reacted differently from the lazy horses, more like excitement. Dahei and Dahuahua were old horses who came down from the battlefield, and they were all too familiar with this military aura. As the saying goes, "Old horses are eager to gallop a thousand miles!" In an instant, the two old horses seemed to have a feeling of returning to the battlefield, their long-dormant hot blood seemingly reawakened in that moment, feeling extremely exhilarated.

  "What's wrong, Ah Fu?"

  Deng Ji's hand gripped the iron sword tightly, his knuckles were all white.

  Cao Peng turned his head to take a look, but saw that the thirty-seven prisoners were standing far behind. Ma Yu had a smug expression on his face and was chatting with someone beside him. When their eyes met, Ma Yu smiled and mouthed what seemed to be "take care!"

  Damn it!

  Cao Peng spat out a mouthful of saliva and with a "clang" sound, drew out his steel knife.

  "Sister's husband, rush in!"

  "But..."

  "Brother-in-law, going back is death, but going forward there's still a way to survive. Behind us, people are waiting for us to fall into misfortune. If we turn back now, you and I will never be able to hold our heads up again." As he spoke, Cao Peng shouted loudly: "Tiger Head, mount your horse... let's charge over!"

  Wang bought two words without saying, turned over and got on horseback.

  He raised his hand and grasped the iron spear, his two feet kicked the belly of the horse, the spear was held level, "Block my way, die!"

  With one loud shout, Wang Bu'er galloped out on horseback.

  "Brother-in-law, born on your knees, die standing, you choose."

  Cao Peng also rode his horse, meeting the Yiyang Wu soldiers who were charging forward. Deng Ji opened his mouth, suddenly gritted his teeth, turned over and got on his horse, pulling out his iron sword.

  Three men, three horses, faced ten times their own number of Yiyang Wu soldiers, faced the dense long spears, and actually charged over without fear.

  The long spearman standing in front was also stunned!

  These guys really have guts...

  "Raise your spears!"

  Behind the team, a thick voice sounded.

  The long spearman no longer hesitated, his body slightly tilted forward, his left hand hooked to guard himself, his right hand holding the long spear, and his mouth continuously let out a string of explosive roars: "Kill, kill, kill!"

  With three loud roars, the long spear holder took three steps forward with his body bent.

  The comings and goings are particularly orderly.

  Even Cao Peng, who had never seen a cold-blooded killing before, could tell that these men were absolutely seasoned veterans of the battlefield.

  What can be done about it?

  Just because they are brave and fierce, can he retreat himself?

  Huang She had them summoned, with the intention of taking their lives. Cao Peng even believed that if they couldn't enter the Yiyangtun gate today, Huang She would immediately throw off his "disobedient" hat. In the army, disobedience is a capital offense. At that time, Huang She wouldn't need any more excuses to kill them... and no one would dare speak up for them.

  The gate of Yiyangtun is their first test when they arrive at Jiuniucheng!

  It's all just one death, it depends on how you choose.

  Cao Peng has always remembered the principle of 'don't be a hero' since his rebirth. But when things came to a head, he had no choice! The stubbornness buried in his bones and deep in his soul burst out in an instant. Even if thousands of people have come and gone... what are you guys?

  Han Ring's knife was raised high, Cao Peng urged his horse to charge forward.

  He and Wang Maizuo stood on either side of him, and in the blink of an eye they arrived at the front of the array.

  Wang's vital energy sank into his dantian, and with a loud shout, he urged on the war horse, at the same time thrusting out both hands holding the halberd. The iron halberd pierced the air, emitting a shrill whistle, as the airflow from the halberd's spine swept past the concave pits on either side, making it especially piercing to the ear. Yiyang Long Spear said, "With spearmen in front, I am invincible!"

  But Wang's move was a lion attacking a rabbit, using all his strength in one blow.

  With a loud clang, the iron spear fiercely collided with a halberd-wielding soldier's hook. The man borrowed the horse's strength, and the horse enhanced the man's power! The twenty days of stake training burst out in an instant with tremendous force. Before this, Cao Peng repeatedly emphasized to Wang Maiqiang the importance of bone strength and the explosive power of the dantian. However, even if he explained it in great detail, without going through several real battles, one could not truly experience its effect.

  The skeleton is penetrated, which is an important function of stake work.

  In later generations, some martial arts books repeatedly mentioned the importance of joints. And pointed out that the bones are empty, between the two bones... If the spirit is filled here, it will be like iron and steel, and the energy will be complete. It requires this skeleton to penetrate, like a real sandbag, filling layer by layer, even if it's soft, it can be released as hard.

  Cao Peng's Taiji also emphasizes that the power should be 'connected to the bones and shoulders'.

  Emphasizing turning guns into fists, where did the guns transform to? They transformed right into one's body.

  A person's skeleton is like a big spear, especially the spine, after training in pile driving, it becomes as tough and resilient as white wax, full of elasticity. The strength of the waist and hip muscles is completed here, transformed into high-frequency killing force. In gun techniques, this is called "Golden Rooster Chaotic Head".

  Wang Mai can't appreciate the profound meaning of this golden chicken nodding its head wildly now.

  However, he was stimulated by the killing aura of Yiyang Wuzhu, and in an instant, he reached the state of so-called "man-gun unity" and "compatibility of strength".

  It's a very strange feeling, even Wang Mai himself can't say it clearly or explain it.

  But in the instant when the snake's spear pierced through, Wang Mai knew: Got it!

  The hook was forged from iron and earth, how could it withstand the combined force of Wang Mai's horse and gun? With a loud "ka", the hook shattered. The snake spear swept past the halberdier's arm and stabbed viciously at his throat. The halberdier's arm went limp and drooped down in an instant. As he stared wide-eyed at the incoming spear, the halberdier didn't dodge or flinch, but instead let out a loud roar and thrust his spear forward to meet it.

  Cao Peng, at the moment when Wang Mai's iron spear stabbed out, also rushed to the front of the formation.

  A long spear thrust forward, and he saw him unhurriedly raise his knife to meet it. When the spear and knife touched, Cao Peng used a clever trick, sinking his elbow downward, quickly retracting, then turning the blade, sticking it to the spear shaft, and pushing it out with a "brush" sound. One sink, one retract, one push... This is the sticky power of Taiji. Of course, Cao Peng's current state couldn't bring this sticky power to its extreme. But even so, this knife move just scared the spearman into dropping his weapon and retreating, suddenly breaking out in a cold sweat.

  At the same time, there was a loud clang.

  Wang Mai's iron spear was about to take his opponent's life, but Heng Li suddenly raised a long spear and forcibly parried the snake spear.

  The long spear of the halberdiers who were fighting to the death also thrust forward at this time.

  Wang Mai suddenly leaned forward on his horse, dodging the spear with a mysterious move. The iron spear swept horizontally, and two clangs were heard. Two halberdiers were knocked to the ground.

  "Stop!"

  A loud shout burst out.

  Yiyang Wu died, lifted his head and looked around, suddenly one by one face showed a surprised and delighted expression.

  "Tu Bo is back, Tu Bo is back!"

  Cao Peng shouted at Wang Mai in the same moment when Wu Zongdao stopped his hand.

  The two reined in their horses and retreated, while Deng Ai barely managed to catch up with them.

  The result of this round of charge was very clear. The Yiyang Wu Ze did not retreat Cao Peng and others, but instead was advanced by Cao Peng and others for several steps.

  The two sides pulled away from each other again, and Cao Peng turned his head to look in the direction of the sound.

  Only saw the young man who had just brought himself over, slowly walking up.

  In the midst of the battle at Yiyangwu, a warhorse suddenly charged out.

  A man resembling a black iron tower sat up straight and reined in his horse in front of the young man, extending his hand in greeting: "Big brother, how did you come back?"

  The young man laughed and said: "What's wrong, isn't it good for me to come back?"

  "It's not what I meant..." Hei Tietou hastily explained, his face flushing with anxiety.

  The more anxious he became, the more tongue-tied he got.

  "Alright, Tangji, take your brothers and retreat first."

  "Ah!"

  Hei Tie Tower didn't say another word, turned around and shouted: "Yiyang Wugrad, retreat twenty steps."

  As soon as the words fell, the Yiyang Wu Ze immediately retreated with their spears. Although they retreated, their formation was not chaotic at all. The spear array was neat and tidy, and the team was strict.

  Deng Jie looked at the young man in surprise and stuttered: "You are..."

  "I am Du Bo of Yiyang Wu Ze, but now I am Tun Jiang of Yiyang Tun."

  The young man's mouth curled up in a sly smile, his tone icy cold: "I don't care what your background is, now get out of here and I'll forgive you for hurting my brother earlier. Yiyangtun is the place where the righteous and brave warriors gather, it will never accept someone like you as its leader."

  "Get out of here! Get out of here!"

  Deng Ji's face turned even paler.

  He gripped the iron sword tightly, his body involuntarily trembling slightly.

  "What if we don't leave?"

  Cao Peng suddenly spoke up and asked.

  The young man burst out laughing and said, "Not leaving? That's easy... Tang Ji, prepare my horse and bring me my sword."

  The men of Yi Yang Wu Zei showed one by one an excited look, and someone shouted loudly: "Big brother, get rid of them, let them know that our Yi Yang Wu Zei is not to be trifled with."

  As they spoke, a magnificent black horse appeared in front of the Black Iron Tower, holding a seven-foot-long Dragon Bird ring in its mouth.

  The young man didn't say a word, flipped over and mounted his horse, raised his hand and grabbed the large ring of the dragon bird in his hand. He was seen riding his horse in circles, with the big knife in his hand pointing forward, "Deng's surname, ugly words are said first, I'm not targeting you, this is the rule of Yiyang Wugrad. Want to enter the gate of Yiyang camp? It's simple, as long as you can win over this knife in my hand, Wei Yan, these 43 Yiyang Wugrad will recognize your leadership."
