Chapter 769 Jiangdong Army’s Crisis

boom!

"Forehead"

jingle.

A spear fell on the ground, and a stream of blood was sprinkled on the red ground in small drops, but it was not abrupt. The ground had long been dyed red with blood, and there was no shortage of this star's blood.

"Well" Chen Wu's face was stunned. From his shoulder all the way down to his ribs, there were two or three feet of scars. The skin and flesh at the wound rolled out and blood overflowed.

Boom!

Chen Wu whimpered a few times and couldn't say a word. He fell straight to the ground, his face turned upward, with a look of astonishment.

"Humph, that's all." Xia Houyuan said coldly.

Xia Houyuan was an important general under Cao Cao, with extraordinary martial arts. His ancestor was Xia Houying, the founding general of the Western Han Dynasty. He followed the great ancestor in the north and south, and made many military exploits. A set of martial arts skills were passed down from generation to generation.

However, Chen Wu had no famous ancestors, so he naturally fell behind Xia Houyuan in terms of martial arts. However, although there is a gap, it is not a huge difference. It is just that Chen Wu personally led his troops to rush back and forth in the battle formation, which consumed a lot of physical energy, while Xia Houyuan was calm and relaxed, so the gap It expanded again and was naturally quickly killed by him.

Some of the soldiers around him rushed forward, cut off Chen Wu's head, and brought it to Xia Houyuan's side.

He raised Chen Wu's head high and shouted in a mighty manner.

"Did you see that? Jiangdong's army is nothing more than that. As long as all the armies are fighting bravely, the enemy army is nothing!"

Seeing Xia Houyuan carrying Chen Wu's head, the morale of tens of thousands of Cao's soldiers was naturally boosted, while the morale of Jiangdong's army was inevitably reduced.

"Zi Lie!"

When Huang Gai saw Chen Wu's head being picked up by Xia Houyuan, he couldn't help but look angry and sad.

"Xia Houyuan, Old Huang Gai is here to fight you, but leave his head behind!"

Huang Gai was furious and was about to rush forward with an iron whip in his hand, but was hugged by his son Huang Bing.

Huang Bing urged: "My father is old. Captain Chen is no match for Xia Houyuan even in his prime. Wouldn't it mean that my father would die if he went up there? My son can't just watch his father die in vain."

Huang Gai said angrily: "You evil boy! Let me go quickly."

Huang Bing just refused. An angry Huang Gai raised his iron whip and was about to beat him down. Huang Bing shouted: "Father, please beat me. Unless I beat my son to death today, I will never let go of my father!"

"you!"

Huang Gai was angry and anxious, and the palm holding the iron whip trembled slightly. He wanted to give Huang Bing a break, but how could he have the heart to be cruel to his son?

When Taishi Ci saw this, he was also furious: "Come on, follow me and kill him, and meet Xia Houyuan for a while!"

His subordinates followed Taishi Ci and rushed towards Xiahou Yuan to kill him. Taishi Ci flew forward, casually hung his weapon beside the saddle, grabbed the bow and arrow, and nocked the bow towards Xiahou Yuan.

Whoosh!

Xia Houyuan was leading his army to charge when he suddenly felt a murderous aura threatening him and his eyes widened.

when!

The long knife deflected, and the flying arrow hit the back of the knife and was bounced away.

"It's rude to come back without reciprocating, so you can take one of my arrows!"

This arrow was accurate and fierce, with great momentum. Thanks to Xia Houyuan, a master of archery, if it had been anyone else, he would have been hit by the arrow. He was secretly annoyed. He was the best shooter in Cao's camp, but he didn't want to hunt geese all day long, but he almost blinded the geese. How could he not be annoyed?

Xia Houyuan became serious, picked up his bow and arrow, took out a heavy three-edged arrow from the quiver on his back, put it on the bowstring, and aimed it at Tai Shici's heart.

Whoosh!

The bow string trembled slightly, and the three-sided heavy arrow shot out with a whoosh, straight like a straight line, straight towards Tai Shi Ci's heart.

Master!

Taishi Ci, who was also a marksman, was shocked, and at the same time a surge of excitement surged into his heart. His archery skills spanned the north and south, and he had few opponents. Unexpectedly, I can meet a master of archery, just like meeting an opponent in chess and meeting a talented person, how can I not be excited?

The arrow came with flying force and arrived in an instant. Taishi Ci had no time to hold the weapon, so he had to use his big bow to push outward. The arrow hit the bow body and bounced out.

"Good archery skills, come again!"

Taishi Ci stuck out his tongue and licked the blood on his lips, reached for the quiver behind his back, grabbed three arrows, put them on the bowstring, drew the bow and fired.

Whoosh whoosh!

The three arrows struck Xia Houyuan between his eyebrows, throat, and heart, with a murderous intent. These three arrows were like three sharpshooters aiming at Xia Houyuan at the same time, taking out the vital parts of Xia Houyuan's upper body and killing Xia Houyuan.

Well come!

Xia Houyuan secretly praised in his heart, but his men did not dare to relax. They also grabbed the quiver on his back and took out four arrows.

Whoosh whoosh!

The same three arrows were shot out, and he used a lot of force. However, these three arrows arrived last and hit the arrows that were shot straight.

Ding-ding-ding-ding!

Six arrows collided in the air. The arrows collided with each other, causing several sparks in the air. They all broke and fell into the air.

After shooting these three arrows, Xia Houyuan put another arrow on the bowstring. This time, he pulled the bowstring into a full moon shape, which was like a big yellow crossbow shooting out, with the combined power of several people. .

Whoosh!

The arrow came so fast and fiercely that Taishi Ci's pupils shrank and he had no time to shoot the arrow to resist. He suddenly leaned back, and an iron bridge pressed his back against the horse's back.

This arrow shot past Taishi Ci's body, almost sticking to the tip of Taishi Ci's nose. If Taishi Ci had stood upright on his horse, he would have been pierced by this arrow.

The soldiers of both armies were dumbfounded by this miraculous archery competition. Some soldiers were so stunned that they simply forgot to fight. When the opposite blade entered their bodies, they let out a cry of pain and woke up.

"Good archery skills will make you famous!"

Xia Houyuan has a proud personality, but he appreciates the Jiangdong general in front of him who is not inferior to him in archery skills, so he takes the initiative to ask.

"This is Donglai Taishi Ci!"

"Are you Taishi Ci?"

Xia Houyuan murmured to himself, showing the same expression as before.

"Your Excellency is proficient in martial arts and has great archery skills. If you join our prime minister, you will definitely be put to good use. Now that Jiangdong Army's defeat has been determined, why doesn't Brother Taishi abandon the dark side and join the bright side?" Xia Houyuan asked tentatively.

Taishi Ciyi spoke righteously: "Ci is deeply appreciated by Duke Bo Fugu and entrusted with important tasks. Ci has long been determined to fight for the Jiangdong Army and will not let down Duke Bo Fugu."

"It's a pity."

Xia Houyuan sighed, put away the three-stone bow, held the long-handled sword, and looked at Taishi Ci with sharp eyes, burning with fighting spirit.

"I just had a competition of archery skills, but I don't know how your horse will fare in battle."

"Then let's give it a try!"

"good!"

Taishi Ci and Xia Houyuan gave a sharp shout and urged their horses forward. The horses galloped forward with four hooves. The two horses moved forward like two points, and they were intertwined.
