"Hold on!"

Huangfu Song screamed at the top of his lungs as he waved the longsword in his hand, pointing at the hole that the xanthopanax had broken through. Yuan Shu's face was ashen, the hole that he had opened up was his soldier. He immediately took a few steps forward, swung his sword and cut down the retreating soldier, then shouted fiercely.

"Those who step back will be killed without mercy!"

Yuan Shu's soldiers were already scared senseless. Even though he had killed all the soldiers who were retreating, he did not manage to boost the soldiers' morale, as he did not manage to stiffen the soldiers' legs. Facing the ferocious xanthopanax, their morale had quickly passed, their resistance had started to decline, and the soldiers in the back were not willing to fight. Before xanthopanax even reached them, the soldiers in the back had already started to think about how to leave the battlefield. Although they were also afraid of being punished by martial law, it was still possible to find a suitable reason to leave the battlefield.

Yuan Shu was an experienced general who had fought in battles for a long time, he roared out loud to forcefully boost his morale, but as time slowly passed, the soldiers' courage to fight soon disappeared, the speed at which the xanthopanax attacked became faster and faster, the number of people attacking also increased, and Yuan Shu's soldiers slowly retreated, only the soldiers in front were still doing their best to resist.

In the beginning, the soldiers were still moving back slowly, but as the xanthopanax's attack became more and more intense, the soldiers in front of them kept falling, but no one moved forward, so there was a gap, and the soldiers that stood out took a step back to maintain the formation. Then there was a gap, then a step back, followed by two steps, then three steps, and by the time they had retreated seven or eight steps, the soldiers behind were already beginning to retreat in large strides.

Yuan Shu who was shouting and commanding the battle also saw the soldiers' fear. He immediately waved his sword and cut down a few more soldiers who tried to escape, but he was no longer able to reverse the situation. There were too many openings, so the xanthopanax grabbed the opportunity and rushed in.

When Gao Sheng saw that the officers and soldiers had started to retreat, he immediately led the Soldiers of the Yellow Scarves to roar and brandish his blade wildly to kill. In that moment, all he saw was flesh and blood flying everywhere as wails filled the air. Broken limbs and arms rolled all over the place.

No matter how Huangfu and Yuan Shu shouted, it could not stop the soldiers under him from retreating. Soldiers who had lost their courage would not be able to immediately raise their morale just by relying on killing two people, it was said that defeating a soldier was akin to collapsing a mountain, and once it collapsed, even a god would rarely be able to control them. Seeing that the defeated soldiers could not be dealt with, Huangfu Song prepared to order Yang Lin to charge forward and suppress the attacking xanthopanax.

"Command cavalry of Youzhou to attack the charging xanthopanax."

When the order to attack was transmitted to Yang Lin, his heart could not help but sink. In front of the two armies, it was no more than five hundred steps wide. If the cavalry army charged, xanthopanax who was attacking would definitely be shot by the Yellow Scarves' Great Formation.

"Brothers, pull down your masks, follow the official army formation, attack!"

But, an order was an order, so Yang Lin did not hesitate at all. All he could do was to get as close to the imperial official army formation as possible in order to avoid his attacks. Pointing his long spear at the sky, he grabbed the horse belly and rushed out first. Over thirty thousand cavalrymen followed him like a torrent, charging forward from east to west.

"Kill …"

Amidst the continuous roars, the solemn cavalry of Youzhou was suddenly like a flood that had broken through the dike, moving from quiet to fast, until she finally finished accelerating and started to sprint with all her might. Over thirty thousand riders gradually formed into a tidal wave, sweeping towards the xanthopanax soldiers who were rushing over in formation.

Thirty thousand sabers were held up high, just like a dense forest of sabers, the sharp sabers emitted a cold light under the sunlight, forming a strange wall of light. Thirty thousand voices shouted in unison, a loud and clear roar pierced the sky, and tens of thousands of horses' hooves galloped forward, like muffled thunder, they smashed down from the sky.

Yang Lin pulled his spear forward, and the fine horses below him started to speed up, the hundreds of cavalrymen behind them also started to speed up, the surging cavalry of Youzhou soon entered the final sprinting distance. The rolling iron hooves kicked up a cloud of dust, confusing the dark sky. The thick murderous intent spread throughout the battlefield like spider webs.

More than thirty thousand cavalrymen came rolling over, colliding with the xanthopanax soldiers that were swarming forward. Like a giant wheel that had collided with a raging wave, water droplets filled the air as they collided with the golden spear. The giant wheel was still moving forward, but the surging waves had already shattered into pieces.

"Kill …"

Yang Lin's long spear was handed over to him and a soldier of the xanthopanax followed suit. With a lift of his right hand, the soldier was thrown off his spear, and Yang Lin's long spear drew a circular arc in the air before him. Once again, the spear blade moved forward.

The Youzhou cavalry rushed through the two formations like a tornado, the sharp blades already reached them in the sky, the brutal strike landed on the soldiers and soldiers of the xanthopanax Army, amidst continuous miserable howls, the soldiers and soldiers that were charging from the xanthopanax fell to the ground.

"Die!"

Guan Yu bellowed, and ferociously pounced on the horse belly, the stallion beneath him roared and galloped forward, the long knife in his hands slashed past, and more than a dozen of the xanthopanax soldiers were actually cut in half at the waist, as though they were running xanthopanax soldiers who had been scared senseless, as if they were demons that had seen hell.

Zhang Fei, who was right behind Guan Yu, turned left slightly, and swept his spear out, causing a row of xanthopanax to be smashed away. In mid air, his spear swung towards Guan Yu again, the tip of the spear slashed across the waist, leaving behind a mess of blood and intestines.

Dian Wei roared, he rushed towards the xanthopanax soldiers, a cold light flashed, one of the soldiers had been cut into two halves by Dian Wei's halberd, the other two thieves were killed by the cavalrymen who followed closely behind Dian Wei. Under Dian Wei's fearless attack of the large iron halberd, it was difficult for the soldiers of the xanthopanax to make even one move.

Xu Zhu's spear ruthlessly pierced through a shield, and pierced through the chest of the xanthopanax soldier who was hiding behind the shield. When the corpse of the xanthopanax soldier was nailed to his spear, his waist blade had only been raised halfway, but he no longer had the chance to slash onto the cavalry.

Pan Feng roared out explosively, her eyes gleaming with a cold killing intent. The mountain ax s in her hands flew up and down, blood splashing everywhere, those 10 odd xanthopanax soldiers all fell to the ground, all of them had their heads cut off, no one was spared at all.

Yu She's wolf-tooth club smashed into a soldier of the xanthopanax, but before he could even turn around, a ferocious General of the Yellow Scarf Army stabbed his spear fiercely at Yu She's horse. Yu She suddenly pulled the horse reins, the warhorse lifted its head and screamed, raising its two front hooves, the gigantic iron hooves stomped on the ground, fiercely stomping on General of the Yellow Scarf Army's chest, immediately producing the crisp sound of bones breaking. General of the Yellow Scarf Army felt his chest suddenly stop, unable to breathe. Lowering his head, he saw that his chest was already caved in from the stomp.

Zhao Yun's long spear stabbed forward, and the scattered xanthopanax had nowhere to dodge. He could only watch as the sharp and pitch black spear blade sliced open his own abdomen coldly, and pierced through his own body coldly. Endless coldness assaulted him from his abdomen like a tidal wave, and his life force slowly slipped away from his body.

"Shoot!" "Shoot the arrows!"

Just as the riders were about to attack, Zhang Jiao, Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang suddenly roared, killing intent gushing out of their eyes like floodwaters. With such a long distance, if you dare to pass through the array, you will have to pay a heavy price.

"Pu pu pu …"

"Buzz buzz" The sounds of the bowstrings rebounding rang in the air, and countless sharp Arrows flew up into the air, interweaving into a group of archery rain, roaring down towards the cavalry of Youzhou who was rushing past.

Endless amounts of Arrows poured down like rain, heavily smashing cavalry of Youzhou's body, in an instant, many of their warhorses fell to the ground. Although the cavalry were dressed in armor, and only made light noises as they rode, the horses did not have the appropriate protection, and the horses that were too close to the xanthopanax suffered a lot of losses. The cavalrymen on horseback were ruthlessly thrown down, letting out waves of wails.

"Damn official dog, I'll let you have a taste of our power."

Zhang Liang commanded the xanthopanax to shoot and cry fiercely. Seeing the cavalry of Youzhou continuously fall down, he calmed his raging heart a little. But he still felt that it was a pity to not get over it, so he turned around and suggested to Zhang Jiao.

"Brother, should we go out and stop them?"

"No need, the battlefield in front of the two armies is too small. Furthermore, the arrows of the imperial government are much more powerful. If we use cavalry, the losses would be even greater. "

"But are we just going to let them attack us?"

"No, wait for them to rush past, then let Gao Sheng retreat."

However, Zhang Jiao was much calmer than Zhang Liang. The battlefield was small, and the unfavorable situation for the riders to charge and kill was one of the main reason, but the main reason was that there were very few riders in the xanthopanax. It was also because the riders riding on the horses, or rather

"Hurry up and counterattack, kill Yellowhorse!"

Seeing the cavalry of Youzhou initiate a charge, Huangfu Song swung the longsword in his hand with all his might. It let out a roar that shocked the surrounding officers and generals into a jump. Even he didn't expect that at such an age, he would have such style.

"Kill …"

Yuan Shu took the chance to shout loudly. At the same time, he waved his longsword and rushed forward. He had seized the opportunity, seeing that his subordinates' morale were high, he immediately took a few steps forward and started his charge. The soldiers shouted, and stabilised their legs, and started fighting with the xanthopanax in the array.

"Kill …"

Amidst endless cheers, over thirty thousand cavalry of Youzhou s rushed past the front of the formation. Amidst the clattering of the horses' hooves, they were like an iron tide sweeping across the vast plains. Tens of thousands of iron hooves splattered the grass and leaves, confusing the sky in front of the two armies. Dust and grass flew in the air as the two armies were at a loss of what to do next.

Along with the clanging of metals, more than thirty thousand cavalry of Youzhou followed closely behind, stepping on the billowing smoke and dust as they swept away. Over thirty thousand war horses and several tens of thousands of iron hooves heavily struck the cold ground, weaving into a suffocating thunder, even the ground was trembling and groaning.

"Withdraw our troops and call Gao Sheng back."

Zhang Jiao finally could not hold it in anymore. As he watched the cavalry of Youzhou charge towards him with a head full of wolves, he couldn't help but feel nervous. Even though many years had passed with human lives as cheap as a dog, this was, after all, the root of his life. No matter what, he could not let his efforts go to waste.
