Chapter 557: The Battle Situation
Chapter 557: The Battle Situation
September 25, 2017
An incredibly strong foundation in martial prowess, terrifying unit traits, elite-level equipment, and an even more formidable lineup of generals.
If one were to find a weakness in the Bloodstained Legion right now, it would be the warhorses, but that's a stretch.
However, the equipment and warhorses that Lu Haikong deemed unworthy are actually what most Outsiders, and even many armies, dream of having.
Although the Bloodstained Legion's warhorses are not exotic beasts, they are among the best among ordinary warhorses. At least, in Zhang Niujiao's eyes, this current combination is an unbeatable force.
Zhang Niujiao is one of the top commanders in the Yellow Turban Army, second only to Zhang Liang, Bo Cai, and Zhang Mancheng. He has extensive combat experience, and his military command is quite intelligent.
But it's useless against Lu Haikong and the Bloodstained Legion. Even his intelligent command has no effect.
Lu Haikong doesn't even consider this battle much of a challenge. When he charged into the Yellow Turban Army, he immediately upgraded his Basic Axe Technique to level 46 without hesitation.
Casually enhancing his strength, he charged at Zhang Niujiao's legion!
Facing this pay-to-win legion that could make people bleed money, Zhang Niujiao has no solution. He has used all his general traits and Zhang Yan's traits, barely boosting his legion's strength a little.
Lu Haikong's generals don't even bother using their traits. The Bloodstained Legion's Bloodthirsty Rampage trait alone is enough to make their strength grow to a point that leaves Zhang Niujiao's side feeling desperate!
Facing this cavalry legion, Zhang Niujiao truly understands the meaning of despair for the first time!
On the other side, Huangfu Song, as one of the top commanders, quickly notices the unusual situation in Zhang Niujiao's army.
But he's puzzled as to why Zhang Niujiao's army suddenly fell into chaos.
"Could it be that Lu Haikong has arrived?"
Huangfu Song has no reason to think this, but he shakes his head in denial.
"Impossible. That guy would love to see me dead right now. Why would he come at this time?"
However, despite his denial, Huangfu Song still leads his army towards Zhang Niujiao's side. This is his only chance.
If Huangfu Song can't crush Zhang Niujiao's legion now, the Han Dynasty's legion might be annihilated here.
As Huangfu Song's legion presses forward, Zhang Niujiao's situation becomes even more dire!
Just the Bloodstained Legion alone is enough to make him despair, and now Huangfu Song is coming from behind. How can he fight this battle?
Fortunately, Bo Cai also notices the situation in Zhang Niujiao's legion.
Bo Cai, standing on the city wall, has a more direct view of the battlefield than Zhang Niujiao and Huangfu Song, allowing him to better gauge the strength of Lu Haikong's Bloodstained Legion!
"Is this the legendary Blood Demon Legion? Truly formidable! What a pity, if only they had come a little earlier, I would have a way to deal with them. Now, it might be a bit difficult!"
The method Bo Cai refers to is the sudden appearance of five thousand Yellow Turban Warriors with a strength of 60 or above in Huangfu Song's army.
If Lu Haikong had arrived earlier, this legion would have appeared in his Bloodstained Legion. Even though Lu Haikong's Bloodstained Legion is powerful, if Bo Cai had used this tactic against him, Lu Haikong's legion might have suffered a devastating defeat.
Lu Hai Kong was fortunate to have escaped a disaster, and Bo Cai was indeed taken by surprise by Lu Hai Kong's sudden appearance, leaving him with no choice.
In this situation, Bo Cai could only do his best to mobilize the forces of other legions to surround and suppress the Great Han Legion as much as possible.
On the other side, the battle between Zhang Liang and his allies had reached a critical stage.
As Zhang Liang gradually became familiar with his power, his combat strength grew more formidable.
Initially, the combined forces of Lu Bu, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei could still rival Zhang Liang, but as Zhang Liang's strength became increasingly terrifying, the pressure on Lu Bu and his allies intensified.
Moreover, Zhang Liang possessed an unknown level of equipment, making the situation even more challenging for Lu Bu and his companions.
On the other side, Hua Xiong's situation was not much better. He was also being suppressed by Yan Liang, whose strength had reached 92, while Hua Xiong's strength was only 90. Although Yan Liang had fought a battle earlier and consumed a significant amount of stamina, he could still easily overpower Hua Xiong at this moment.
Among all the warriors, Sun Jian had the most favorable situation.
Sun Jian's strength was comparable to Guan Hai, and with the assistance of four elite generals, Guan Hai was almost entirely suppressed.
At first, Guan Hai could still hold his ground, but after half an hour, he was no longer able to endure, and he had to retreat towards Zhang Liang's side.
In the 16th chapter of the 9th volume, according to the error-free version!
At this moment, Zhang Liang had just become familiar with his power, and his combat strength surged. Sun Jian, who was nearby, commanded his troops, and Zhang Liang directly pulled Sun Jian into his battlefield, initiating a one-versus-four confrontation.
Zhang Liang, who was fighting four opponents, not only remained unharmed but also grew more courageous with each battle, putting increasing pressure on Lu Bu and his allies.
After a short while, Sun Jian suddenly saw Guan Hai raise his sword to strike his four generals. Sun Jian's heart raced, and he was about to rush to their rescue, but he forgot that he was still facing Zhang Liang. Zhang Liang seized the opportunity and stabbed him in the ribs.
Fortunately, Sun Jian reacted quickly and narrowly escaped with his life.
With Sun Jian's severe injury, the situation for Lu Bu and his companions became even more challenging.
Just as they were witnessing Zhang Liang's formidable might, Zhang Liang's movements suddenly paused, as if someone had abruptly restrained him.
Lu Bu and his companions were baffled by this development, and the aura surrounding Zhang Liang instantly dissipated. However, he managed to recover, but it was evident that Lu Bu and his allies had a significant gap in strength compared to Zhang Liang's diminished combat prowess.
"What's going on?"
Zhang Liang's face changed dramatically. His strength had significantly decreased, and it seemed that one of his twelve Yellow Turban generals under his command must have been killed. But who could have killed his subordinate?
Zhang Liang hadn't figured it out yet, but his aura and combat strength had both diminished.
In just a few minutes, Zhang Liang's strength decreased twice. Originally, he could suppress Lu Bu and his companions, but now, he showed a slight decline.
In this situation, Zhang Liang's face changed dramatically. He waved his hand, forcing Lu Bu and his companions to back off, and he turned to leave!
But having fought to such an extent, it was clear to everyone that Zhang Liang's current state was not good, and his strength had weakened significantly. As they saw Zhang Liang on the verge of collapse, how could Lu Bu and his companions let him go so easily?
The three of them immediately brandished their weapons and rushed forward, determined to keep Zhang Liang there.
Seeing this situation, Zhang Liang's face changed dramatically!
