Chapter 460 The Heaven-defying Huang Zhong (Part 2)
Outside Xiling City, Yang Tao did not leave much after evacuating his troops. He stayed only a few miles away from the city, preparing to find out how the situation in Xiling City will develop.
Shortly after Yang Tao led his troops to withdraw from the battle, the sentry probes clearly learned about the general situation in Xiling City. When Zhang Mancheng's army was attacking Xiling City while he led his troops to fight Huang Zhong, he realized that he had fallen into Zhang Mancheng's plan.
"I didn't expect that Zhang Mancheng would use his and others to drag Huang Zhong, but he led a large army to attack Xiling City. It seems that Xiling City will be taken down by Zhang Mancheng." Yang Tao said with sighing. The purpose of coming to Xiling this time seemed to be impossible to achieve. Judging from the current situation, it is already a certain fact that Zhang Mancheng took Xiling. Unless a miracle occurs, how could a miracle occur just by wanting it?
Seeing that Zhang Mancheng's army outside the south city had already broken through the south city gate, even the last gate of Xiling City was broken by Zhang Mancheng's army. It is an ironclad fact that he can occupy Xiling.
"I just don't know what Huang Zhong is doing now?" Yang Tao did not see Huang Zhong leave the city, and he couldn't help but worry about whether Huang Zhong would fall into Zhang Mancheng's hands. Yang Tao did not want Huang Zhong to be subdued by Zhang Mancheng, which was not good news for Yang Tao. After all, there were not many generals who could compare to Huang Zhong in the entire Three Kingdoms region. Being subdued means that one general would be missing in the future. This is naturally not what Yang Tao hoped to see.
Just when Yang Tao was worried about Huang Zhong, hundreds of Han soldiers suddenly rushed out of the city gate. These soldiers and horses could actually release skills similar to elite troops and skills. The Nancheng Gate, which Zhang Mancheng's army had just captured, was immediately broken by these hundreds of people, and the people who were killed were overturned and whine.
"Isn't this the skill? Why did it appear again? It's only a few hours! The cooling time is too short, right?" Yang Tao immediately recognized what the bright yellow light ball on these people was. It was the skill that greatly increased the strength of the Han army in Xiling City that I had seen before. However, this skill was extremely powerful, but the cooling time was indeed unexpectedly short, which surprised Yang Tao.
Yang Tao searched carefully among the troops from the city, but did not find Huang Zhong's figure in it.
But he was not disappointed for a long time, and another Han army of hundreds of people rushed out. Yang Tao didn't care much at first, thinking that another scattered soldier took the opportunity to escape, but soon Yang Tao discovered something was wrong. The Han army that was leaving the city was a little different from the previous Han army. The most obvious thing was that there were a large number of Zhang Mancheng's troops behind him, and Yang Tao also saw Zhang Mancheng's figure in it.
"Zhang Mancheng has appeared, is there an important figure in this Han army?" Yang Tao immediately realized something when he saw Zhang Mancheng's figure and hurriedly looked at the hundreds of Han army.
Since it was still daytime, Yang Tao was only hundreds of meters away from the team of hundreds of people. He saw a carriage among the team of hundreds of people being guarded by soldiers. The man escorted by the carriage was not Huang Zhong, who was it?
When Yang Tao saw Huang Zhong, he understood the reason why Zhang Mancheng led the army to pursue him. Yang Tao was also happy that Huang Zhong did not fall into Zhang Mancheng's hands, but Huang Zhong's situation was not very good.
With the carriage, even if the Han army has the speed of elite soldiers, it will not be able to get rid of Zhang Mancheng's army behind him and will be caught up by him soon. Huang Zhong is still likely to fall into Zhang Mancheng's hands.
Seeing this, Yang Tao was about to lead people forward to block Zhang Mancheng's troops, but he just ran forward and had to stop.
It’s not that Yang Tao doesn’t want to rescue Huang Zhong anymore. After all, if Huang Zhong can be saved at this time, he can form a friendship with Huang Zhong. Maybe he will have a chance to use it in the future. But the reason why Yang Tao didn’t come forward was that he was frightened by the scene in front of him.
Among the hundreds of Han troops, Huang Zhong, who was in the middle of the army, saw Zhang Mancheng's army chasing him tightly, frowned, turned his horse's head and came to the back of the team, glared at the enemy chasing ahead, inserted the long knife in his hand to the ground, took off the longbow from his back, and placed an arrow on the longbow, but the arrow aimed at the sky.
"drink!"
A loud shout of thunder suddenly shook the whole field from Huang Zhong's mouth. The war horse man under Huang Zhong's crotch stood up and neighed. A wave of orange-yellow flames suddenly surged on Huang Zhong's body, covering his whole body, dazzling and dazzling. Not only that, stars flashing like meteors appeared around Huang Zhong, spinning around his body. From a distance, Huang Zhong seemed to be about to fly in the air with his war horse.
"The word "true" is advanced! How is it possible!" Yang Tao immediately screamed in surprise when he saw Huang Zhong's condition. However, before Yang Tao could figure out what was going on, what happened next made him shocked.
In this state, a silver light suddenly flashed in Huang Zhong's eyes, and a "bang" sounded, and a sound wave hit the surroundings. The arrow shot by Huang Zhong was flashing with silver-white light, which was still dazzling even during the day.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom… Boom! Boom…"
The silver arrows climbed rapidly towards the sky until they suddenly fell like a huge firework after a height of thousands of meters, covering everything within a radius of four or five thousand meters. Suddenly, countless explosion-like roars sounded, and the dust raised was dozens of feet high, covering the place within a radius of four or five thousand meters. Even Yang Tao and others, who were hundreds of meters away, were almost suffocated by the air waves, and their eardrums were even buzzing, and they were almost deaf.
The explosion of four or five thousand meters was exactly where the pursuit army led by Zhang Mancheng was located, and I don’t know what the situation was.
But now Yang Tao didn't care about other people's situation anymore. Countless sand and gravel splashed in the explosion. Yang Tao and the soldiers behind him immediately stopped and hurriedly retreated to avoid any impact.
After the dust in the sky dissipated, there was no trace of Huang Zhong's Han soldiers with hundreds of people. In front of him was a bare ground. The ground within a radius of four or five thousand meters seemed to have been removed, and a piece of sunken down. The tens of thousands of Zhang Mancheng's soldiers and horses that were originally in it did not disappear, and even the remaining limbs were left. The only thing that still existed in the field was a sculpture covered in blood. To be precise, it was a person riding a horse. From the position, it should be Zhang Mancheng. Only Zhang Mancheng could withstand the violent explosion without being blown into ashes. As for whether he was alive or dead, it was unknown. If it weren't for the large number of Zhang Mancheng's soldiers around him to protect him, Yang Tao would have rushed up and killed Jiang Qi.
However, even though Zhang Mancheng was not dead, he should be not far from death. He would not have thought of leading his army to attack Yuzhang County in a short time, and Yang Tao could have achieved his goal of coming to Xiling City.
What Yang Tao has to consider now is what Huang Zhong had before.
"Huang Zhong's state is indeed a matter of promotion to the real character, but now it is very early to open the real character promotion. Even Lu Bu, who had fought with him in Jizhou before, did not advance to the real character. How did Huang Zhong achieve this?" Yang Tao could only think of a difficult task, just like the spiritual character promotion talisman obtained by Yang Tao completing the three-headed giant python mission. Perhaps Huang Zhong also completed a similar task and promoted the real character. Only in this way can he explain the reason why Huang Zhong can advance to the real character at this time.
But in this way, Huang Zhong is equivalent to an unsolvable existence as a bug. At least before challenging Dong, it is difficult to find an existence that can compete with him in the game. Anyone who wants to provoke Huang Zhong must consider whether he can bear the consequences after provoking him. Even Zhang Ning, who now has the pseudo-legacy equipment that can use the Qianzhang Wangzhu, would not dare to provoke such an existence, otherwise Jiangheting would be in a catastrophe.
Yang Tao breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, when he fought with Huang Zhong before, he did not use the real word to advance, otherwise Yang Tao and the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses around him would have died long ago.
Now that Zhang Mancheng's threat to Yu Zhang was lifted, Yang Tao led his troops to retreat fifty miles away, leaving Zhang Mancheng's sight, and was considering where to go.
"Take a large army out, you can't go back to Jianghe Pavilion after losing thousands of soldiers and consuming a lot of food and grass. You can't just get nothing back to Jianghe Pavilion. It's better to go to the Nanyang Army to see it. The Yin family of Nanyang had letters urging troops to go to Nanyang. Now it's not far from Nanyang County, so you can go there by the way. Sha Xian's players don't have to worry about the battle between Zhang Mancheng's army. Instead, you have to notify the Zhou Tai Shui Army on the Yangtze River to transfer to Han River to Nanyang County." Yang Tao thought about it in the military camp and decided where the army was going.
After that, tens of thousands of soldiers rested dozens of miles away in Xiling City for a night, and headed towards Nanyang County to the west early the next morning.
