【Chapter 726】Looking at flowers in the fog
When Yan Liang steadied the shocked horse and sat back on his body, he finally saw clearly that the knife just now was the powerful force that was slashed by the nine-ring iron-backed sword in Xu Chu's palm.
Just at this moment, Zhang Liao and Xu Chu surrounded each other again.
In an instant, Yan Liang had no time to care about the severe pain on his body, and his cheeks were extremely twisted and gritted his teeth and waved the knife to fight.
"Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding!"
Amid the loud bang of weapons, Yan Liang had almost no room to take a breath. He was spinning in place like a top, dismantling the front and back gears, and tilting forward and leaning back with all his strength, fighting against two, and struggling for more than ten rounds in one breath.
Faced with the front and back attacks between Zhang Liao and Xu Chu, Yan Liang had no counterattack at all. He could only rely on the instinct of a warrior to block it desperately. He drove the wolf at the front door and drove the tiger at the back door. He was so busy that he was full of murderous sword lights. After more than ten rounds of hard parry, Yan Liang was sweating profusely. The black armor was tightly stuck to his body, and more than ten bloody mouths of different sizes were added at some point.
"Ahhhh—————————————————————”
After repeated waves of the knife to resist, Yan Liang's cheeks flushed, blue veins on his forehead burst, sweating like rain, panting like a cow, his whole body was sore and exhausted, his arms were trembling, and he was already at the end of his strength, and his back was not strong. In his helplessness, he deliberately exposed his flaws, and his right leg was cut by Zhang Liao, causing Zhang Liao's outer thigh to be cut open, and his skin was blooming. A two-inch-long knife edge was like a blooming rose, and blood flowed. However, Yan Liang gritted his teeth and endured the pain of cutting his skin, and used his sword to storm Zhang Liao's sword and shook him back several steps. While forcing Zhang Liao to retreat, Yan Liang roared angrily, turned to fight Xu Chu without any effort, and fought hard against Xu Chu's siege and vomited blood, and then ran away from the horse. Finally, he broke out of the siege and opened the distance with Zhang Liao and Xu Chu again.
"Huh Huh Huh!" Yan Liang, who had worked hard to escape from the siege and intercept the enemy, rode his horse and breathed a lot, breathing a sigh of relief. However, when he tried to escape back to the formation in one go, he suddenly found that his escape direction was wrong. The military formation two hundred steps away was not the Allied formation, but the Xiliang army formation. The huge and conspicuous Jinzhan Beast King battle flag was fluttering in the wind, making a sound.
Seeing this, Yan Liang's face turned pale, his expression was dark, and his eyes were dull. The joy of escaping was as cool as falling into an ice cave in the cold cellar. There was the army of Xiliang in front, Zhang Liao and Xu Chu in the back, and they worked together to chase and kill, which was said to have no way to heaven and no way to the ground.
In an instant, Yan Jing felt as if she was dead and completely desperate.
At this moment, he was truly extremely regretful, regretting that he should not have been greedy for merit and fighting, hating that he had been blinded by hatred, lost his mind, and was determined to kill Gan Ning to avenge his brother Wen Chou. If he hadn't been eager for revenge, how could he end up like this?
In fact, Yan Liang had noticed it as early as when Zhang Liao and Xu Chu were fighting horses and out of the battle. At that moment, he had thought of stopping when he saw it, giving up the great opportunity to kill Gan Ning, and immediately retreating to the battle. But he was really unwilling to give up the great opportunity to kill Gan Ning in the face of Wen Chou, because everything he had done before was actually to anger Gan Ning, and then he killed him under the knife.
As the saying goes: Opportunities cannot be missed, and no more mistakes will come. If you can kill Gan Ning, you will not only avenge Wen Chou, but also make great achievements; with this battle, it will be enough to make Yan Liang famous all over the world and gain both fame and fortune. As a general, who doesn’t want to make achievements and become famous all over the world, and Yan Liang is naturally no exception.
Therefore, when he found that two more generals of the Xiliang army formation were fighting horses and out of the formation, he did not immediately flee from the battlefield. Instead, he wanted to take advantage of the distance of more than 200 steps to kill Gan Ning before the arrival of the two Xiliang generals, and then withdraw to the formation. At the same time, he also had a lucky mentality and subconsciously believed that the two enemy generals who took out this time were like Hu Zhen and Yang Ding. They seemed to be extraordinary, but in fact they were stubborn and had mediocre martial arts, which was not afraid.
It was precisely based on this fluke mentality that Yan Liang ignored Zhang Liao and Xu Chu who were fighting on the battlefield, and they were determined to kill Gan Ning and fought quickly. But the result was not what Yan Liang thought. He always thought that Gan Ning could kill Gan Ning with just one knife, but unexpectedly, Gan Ningduan, who was already at the end of his power, was extremely tenacious. He repeatedly escaped from his sword and took more than ten sword attacks.
When Gan Ning was completely powerless to resist, Yan Liang's face suddenly changed, so that he hesitated on the way back to kill Gan Ning, and even wanted to turn around and escape. Because after he turned back, he saw the appearance of the two Xiliang generals, which were Zhang Liao and Xu Chu who had become famous among the Xiliang generals recently.
Regarding these two people, Yan Liang had not heard of the names of these two people before the Allied forces fought with the Western Liang army; however, since the Allied forces started fighting with the Western Liang army, he often heard the names of Zhang Liao and Xu Chu mentioned by the princes of each town... As a result, the origins of these two people were also revealed by the princes of each town. The stacks of impressive achievements were enough to envy all the Allied generals, including Yan Liang.
As a result, Yan Liang kept all the famous generals under Li Li of Xiliang in his heart, and paid special attention to the appearance of the generals of Xiliang in the Hangu siege for more than four months, and took the seats one by one, and then firmly remembered the appearance of these powerful generals of Xiliang. The reason why he did this was actually not a special meaning, but a habit he developed when he was a ranger in his early years, that's all.
But what Yan Liang never expected was that his unintentional act had come true. As soon as he killed Gan Ning, two of the dozen Xiliang generals ranked higher in his mind appeared at once, and they all came to him.
At this moment, Yan Liang instinctively wanted to leave and escape immediately. Because, if the rumors were true, Zhang Liao alone had a skill that was no less than Yan Liang, and Xu Chu's combat power was still above Zhang Liao, and he was recently included in the top ten war generals under Li Li's command.
If Yan Liang had decisively retreated to the formation at that time, then he would not have been in a desperate situation. Unfortunately, after a little hesitation, he still decided to kill Gan Ning first and then retreat to the formation. After all, Gan Ning was standing in front of him and had no power to resist. If he didn't kill at this time, when would he wait?
In addition, Yan Liang was very confident in his martial arts and believed that even if he fought against two, he would not be afraid of Zhang Liao and Xu Chu, and he could retreat to his own formation calmly.
In this way, Yan Liang, who made up his mind, did not evacuate the battlefield in front of the formation immediately. He tried to cut the mess quickly and killed Gan Ning before Zhang Liao and Xu Chu arrived.
However, this time Yan Liang miscalculated.
He calculated everything, but ignored the most important detail, that is, his mount under his crotch was far faster than he thought. Therefore, when he tried to rely on the advantage of distance and rode his horse and killed Gan Ning with lightning speed, Zhang Liao came first and took action in time to block his deadly sword.
Immediately, Yan Liang had to abandon Gan Ning and fight with Zhang Liao. Unexpectedly, Zhang Liao was much more brave and fierce than he expected. He took the lead with the attack, making him helpless and struggling. Then, Xu Chu suddenly arrived and attacked Zhang Liao in front and behind, making him miserable. He forced him to break out of the siege at the cost of serious injuries.
"Hi———da da da da da!"
Recalling the scene just now, Yan Liang regretted it. However, although he had already had a premonition that he was afraid of being in danger this time and his life was worrying, he did not give up on survival, and he was even more unwilling to sit and wait for death. Of course, he could not fight to the end like Gan Ning and never retreat. So at this moment, Yan Liang did not hesitate anymore, and after he opened the distance with Zhang Liao and Xu Chu, he pretended to be a horse and rushed towards the Xiliang Army formation, but when he was running for more than fifty steps, he suddenly turned around, trying to shake off Zhang Liao and Xu Chu who were chasing behind him, and detoured to the south of the battlefield, and then fled back to the formation.
"Gan Ning is here, where can Yan Zhe leave?"
Just as Yan Liang rode his horse and looked back, a loud shout came from the face, which made Yan Liang tremble all over. He immediately turned his head and looked at the loud shout.
"Uh??? Gan Ning?" Yan Liang was shocked and waved his sword and rushed towards Gan Ning in anger.
"Yan was just about to kill you, but I didn't expect that you were sending it to me yourself. It was obviously seeking death! Gan Ning. Be dead! Hahaha???"
"Are you looking for death? I'm afraid it may not be!"
Facing Yan Liang's crazy laughter, Gan Ning rushed over without fear, responded without showing any weakness, and looked at Yan Liang coldly, as if he was observing the distance between his uncle.
"Since death! Kill——"
Seeing Gan Ning who was ignorant of his life and death blocking his way, Yan Liang ran away. When he approached Gan Ning, he shouted loudly, and the sword in his hand slashed at Gan Ning's head fiercely. This sword was definitely extraordinary, or it was a potential explosion. When the sword slashed through the airflow, it caused a sharp sound of breaking through the air, with great force and extreme ferociousness. Its power and attack power were even much faster and more fierce than Yan Liang's attack when he was in full swing.
"Swish———Bang!"
A knife cut off the airflow and broke through the air, completely ignoring the sword in Gan Ning's hand, and heading towards his neck. However, as the blade roared past, Yan Liang expected that the scene of Gan Ning's head flying in the air did not appear, because he had a fierce sword that actually cut the air. There was no Gan Ning's figure in his sight, but only an uncontrollable war horse. Just when Yan Liang was shocked, the war horse under his crotch suddenly fell and threw him out. The sword in his hand was also lost because he couldn't stop and lost his hand, and his helmet flew into the air.
"Bang——Xi Yuyu!"
It was not until Yan Liang's four legs fell to the ground that he heard the shrill neighing and whining of his horse. At this time, the war horse only had two horse hooves, and the two horse hooves on the left were cut off together.
At this time, Yan Liang finally saw Gan Ning's figure, but saw him kneeling on one knee not far from the fallen war horse, with blood shining on the sword in his hand, and two broken horse legs were on the ground.
Seeing this scene, Yan Liang suddenly realized that Gan Ning had no intention of fighting him head-on, and had already made up his mind to kill his mount.
At this point, Yan Liang was furious and struggled to get up, trying to pick up the sword not far away and kill Gan Ning before he died. However, just as he got up from the ground, a dark horse galloped past his eyes, and a terrifying cold light flashed across the horse at the same time.
In an instant, Yan Liang felt his neck numb and his scalp hurt. Then he shook in the air with the black horse, making him dizzy and a golden star in front of him. When he finally could see the things in front of him clearly, he saw a very familiar headless body standing where he was standing. At this moment, blood mist burst out from the broken neck, which was so scary. When he wanted to see who the familiar headless corpse was, a burst of intense pain rushed into his mind. Then his vision was blurred, like looking at a flower in the fog. In an instant, the blur turned into chaos, and the whole world was dark.
