Chapter 50

And on the other side, the previously lagging Xian Army also caught up.

The cavalry of the Chongfeng Camp had already mixed into the chaos of the Huangjin soldiers, so the Xian Army could no longer use their crossbows.

Gao Shun seized the moment and roared, "The time to achieve glory is now, Xian Army, draw your swords, and slay the enemy!"

With Gao Shun's loud cry, the soldiers of the Xian Army automatically formed five phalanxes, each a thousand strong, and raised their long blades.

"Xian Army, kill. Xian Army, kill." With the resounding slogans of the five thousand Xian Army, each phalanx moved as one, completely ignoring their defenses, and continuously used their long blades to cut down the lives of the Huangjin soldiers.

At this moment, Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, who were fighting on the city walls of Changshe, were already somewhat exhausted, let alone the soldiers who had not received much training. However, they suddenly found the pressure had lessened, and fewer Huangjin soldiers were rushing onto the city walls.

"Huang Wei, look quickly, that seems to be our reinforcements." The sharp-eyed Huangfu Song immediately saw Liu Yao's troops slowly advancing towards Changshe and excitedly called out. But his actions did not stop, and he quickly dispatched a Huangjin soldier who had just climbed onto the city wall.

Zhu Jun was overjoyed upon hearing this. He immediately looked into the distance and saw two large banners inscribed with "Han" and "Liu." He then laughed wildly, "Ha ha ha, Yi Zhen, it's the 'Liu' banner, it must be the Crown Prince. We are saved."

The two looked down at the army of over ten thousand, which was making the Huangjin soldiers retreat step by step, and their faces were filled with excitement. Huangfu Song immediately pointed his long spear to the sky, mustering his strength, and shouted loudly, "Soldiers, our reinforcements have arrived. It's the Crown Prince, the Governor of Youzhou, Liu Yao, coming to our aid. The Huangjin are already retreating. Now, everyone, open the city gates and follow me out to fight."

All the defending soldiers, upon hearing Liu Yao's name, were instantly filled with hope, and their morale soared. The discomfort they had felt earlier disappeared. Liu Yao's name was a symbol of invincibility to them. Even the Wuhuan were no match for Liu Yao, let alone the disorganized Huangjin.

"Kill... " Under the leadership of Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun, all the defending soldiers were filled with high morale, and the frustration they had felt from being suppressed by the Huangjin was suddenly unleashed. They began their revenge on the fleeing Huangjin soldiers from the city gates.

At this moment, Bo Cai, seeing the scene before him, was already terrified. Looking at Liu Yao's troops charging towards him, he fearfully shouted, "Don't run, all of you, hold your ground, quickly hold your ground."

"Run... " A Huangjin soldier dropped his weapon and fled from the battlefield.

"I don't want to die, get out of my way." A Huangjin soldier, blocked by the person in front, directly cut down his comrade and continued to flee. The ruthlessness was evident. In the face of survival, everything else was trivial.

The defeat was like a landslide. Even if Bo Cai were more capable, he could not reignite the morale of his defeated troops. With the intention to escape, he immediately fled towards the Huangjin camp, accompanied by his personal guards. All the Huangjin soldiers, seeing their commander flee, also followed Bo Cai.

However, Liu Yao, with his keen hearing, had already discovered Bo Cai's position from the earlier roar. Liu Yao looked in Bo Cai's direction and said to the few people around him, "Zilong, Yide, Hansheng. Bo Cai is there. If you can capture him alive, do so; if not, kill him." While speaking, Liu Yao did not hesitate, wielding his massive axe with great force, not using any techniques, just brute strength to cut down the Huangjin soldiers. Even a slight touch from the axe would result in death or injury.

The three followed Liu Yao's gaze and indeed saw Bo Cai fleeing. They were overjoyed. Capturing Bo Cai alive would be a great achievement.

"Bo Cai, you little brat, prepare to die." Zhang Fei roared and slapped his black horse, which instantly galloped forward.

The volume of Zhang Fei's voice was considerable, and even amidst the chaos, his voice was clearly heard by Bo Cai.

Bo Cai was shaken and turned back to see a black-faced man on a black horse charging towards him, dispatching the Huangjin soldiers in front of him with a single spear. Bo Cai dared not stay and fled desperately from the battlefield.

"Yide, you won't succeed, Bo Cai's life is mine." Zhao Yun laughed and also pursued Bo Cai.

Huang Zhong, naturally, was not to be outdone and also pursued Bo Cai. He could not let this achievement slip away.

With the three competing with each other and riding the finest warhorses, they quickly closed the distance with Bo Cai.

"Bo Cai, little brat, don't run. See me, Zhang Fei, give you a few transparent holes." Zhang Fei, seeing he was almost within reach, waved his spear and excitedly shouted.

Bo Cai, hearing this, turned back and saw the three generals were less than a hundred steps away. He immediately called to his subordinates, "You few, go and stop them."

"Yes." Instantly, six Huangjin subordinates ran out from the ranks. These were Bo Cai's trusted men, willing to sacrifice their lives for him without hesitation.

The six immediately charged at Zhang Fei, who was leading the charge, and simultaneously thrust their spears at him.

Zhang Fei, seeing this, was not afraid but laughed loudly. With a casual strike, he deflected all six spears.

Before Zhang Fei could deal with these subordinates, a voice came from behind, "Yide, I will help you." With the voice came a silver spear. Zhao Yun's spear flicked, creating two spear flowers, and pierced the hearts of the two Huangjin subordinates closest to him.

On the other side, Huang Zhong silently appeared beside Zhang Fei and, with a casual swing of his Daxia Longyue saber, beheaded two subordinates.

"Ah! You two actually dare to snatch my prey." Seeing his prey being taken, Zhang Fei was furious. He quickly deflected the spears pressing down on his spear and swiftly gave the last two Huangjin subordinates transparent holes.

In just one round, the six Huangjin subordinates were slain by Zhang Fei and the others.

By this time, Bo Cai had already fled over a hundred steps away, and with many Huangjin soldiers blocking the way, the three could not catch up.

Seeing this, Huang Zhong, without hesitation, drew his precious bow, drew an arrow, and in the next moment, the arrow flew at an incredible speed towards Bo Cai's head.

Bo Cai, suddenly sensing the danger, instinctively turned back and saw the arrow flying towards his face. He inwardly sighed, "I am doomed."

At this critical moment, "Commander, be careful." One of Bo Cai's personal guards unhesitatingly rushed towards Bo Cai, blocking him.

Huang Zhong's arrow pierced through the guard's chest, and the guard instantly groaned and closed his eyes in relief.

However, Huang Zhong's archery skills were unparalleled. The arrow still had momentum and continued towards Bo Cai. The arrow, which was originally aimed at Bo Cai's head, was deflected by the guard and hit Bo Cai's left arm.

"Ah!!" Bo Cai screamed, immediately covering his left arm with his right hand and fleeing without looking back. The remaining Huangjin soldiers also desperately followed Bo Cai.
