Chen Gong led two thousand n lying in ambush amid the underbrush, and truth be told, were it not for the vastness of the reed marshes, Chen Gong would not have chosen to lie in ambush here.

"General Cao, you have sharp eyes. If you see any flas, notify imdiately," Chen Gong said to Cao Xing, who was squatting beside him. Squatting in the reed marshes, one’s greatest fear was of being set on fire, but this was the only place suitable for ambush without ti to dig tunnels. Thus, Chen Gong had no choice but to lead his troops to lie in ambush here.

"Burn, burn, burn, let’s burn this area to the ground. Even if Chen Gongtai is cautious, this ti he will be utterly repulsed!" Guo Jia, holding a torch in broad daylight and feeling elated, said. For a strategist, to burn has indeed beco a habit.

As he spoke, a pile of torches was hurled toward the reed marshes, and then a violent gust of wind rose, fiercer than the Changing Heavens. Guo Jia believed that as long as the opponent was not so freak like Chen Xi or Xun Yu, he would face no pressure.

"The wind?" Chen Gong, squatting in the reeds, wore a peculiar expression on his face. Suddenly alard, he imdiately mobilized his spiritual capacity to reverse the wind direction. He had already seen the flas.

"Retreat, fight our way out, prepare to attack!" Chen Gong shouted. However, his west wind could not overpower the east wind prepared by Guo Jia. Even if Chen Gong wanted to change the wind, it would be almost impossible to turn it back instantly, let alone push it back.

When Chen Gong erged from the smoke looking like he was wearing makeup, Chen Chi had already led the onslaught of troops. Unlike the fiery and aggressive invasion of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, the army led by Chen Chi didn’t rush fiercely but advanced with an unstoppable montum, step by step.

"Crossbown, attack." Chen Chi signaled with a flag, and the slowly advancing army imdiately halted. The central army’s archers then drew their bows and aid forward.

"Sword and shield infantry, tilt to the side. Long spears, press down." Chen Chi continued signaling, and soon the army he led transford into a porcupine formation. The front line, with great sword, long spear, and even longer spears, ford a dense hierarchical formation, pressing forward with thick Cloud Qi and in neat steps.

A torrent of arrows rained down, causing both Chen Gong and Cao Xing, already harassed by smoke and fire, to sustain minor injuries. Initially, they had planned to catch Guo Jia off guard with a surprise attack, but instead of ambushing Guo Jia, they were ambushed by him.

"Chen Gongtai, how do you like my spear formation?" Guo Jia asked with a loud laugh.

Chen Gong’s face darkened as he was mocked by Guo Jia in his wretched state. Feeling exceedingly annoyed, he retorted, "Guo Fengxiao, aren’t you afraid that by advancing your troops so slowly, by the ti you arrive Guan Yunchang and Zhang Yide might have already beco ghosts under the blade?"

"I don’t know whether they’ll beco ghosts under the blade, but I do know that if you don’t run now, you’ll soon beco one!" Guo Jia said with a light laugh as he opened his wooden folding fan.

"Release arrows!" Chen Chi roared. The archers behind the spear formation abruptly stood up and loosed a volley of arrows in Chen Gong’s direction.

```

"Clang clang~" Fortunately, Cao Xing himself was a master archer, extrely accurate in predicting the trajectory of arrows. Thus, he managed to deflect most of the arrows aid at the two of them with his long spear. Even so, both were still hit by several arrows.

"Zhou Cang, quickly lead your troops and capture Chen Gong and his accomplice!" Chen Chi ordered the only one who could be called a valiant general, Zhou Cang.

"Understood!" Zhou Cang hefted his great sword and led five hundred n in a charge toward Cao Xing. At the sa ti, the infantry on the left and right also moved forward with their long spears diagonally, aiming to encircle and capture Chen Gong and Cao Xing.

"Retreat, since the enemy is not in disarray, there’s no need for us to waste ti here." Chen Gong glanced toward Guo Jia’s direction, turned his horse around, and left. The current situation was far different from what he had anticipated; he had originally wanted to take the opportunity to capture the enemy alive, but now that possibility was gone.

Cao Xing nodded, then drew his bow and nocked an arrow, firing at Zhou Cang. But Zhou Cang, relying on his strength far surpassing Cao Xing’s, dodged left and right, and though he was eventually hit by the arrow, it caused only a superficial wound due to Cao Xing’s lack of strength.

"All troops halt, and advance at full speed to the west!" Chen Chi, without hesitation and seeing the speed at which Chen Gong and his n withdrew, gave up the pursuit. His goal was to save people, not to chase down Chen Gong, especially since with Chen Gong’s command there might be traps left behind.

On the other side, Guan Yu’s central army desperately blocked Lyu Bu’s charge. It had to be said that the situation Guo Jia had most feared did not occur. It seed Guan Yu never really considered Lyu Bu as an opponent; after all, normal people would likely not entertain the thought of fighting such a monster.

Supported by the Legion Talent that enveloped all soldiers and the Cloud Qi that sealed Inner Qi, Guan Yu firmly halted the charge of the Wolf Cavalry led by Lyu Bu at the front of the central army. However, even with the suppression of Cloud Qi preventing Lyu Bu from using Inner Qi, Guan Yu did not gain any advantage over Lyu Bu, and could at best say they had exchanged several blows without injury.

After all, with Inner Qi sealed, Lyu Bu’s full strength was reduced by ninety percent; a combat power of one thousand dropped to one hundred. Similarly, Guan Yu’s seven to eight hundred combat power also dropped to seventy to eighty. In this situation, with both of them having much greater abilities than their current strength, yet constrained by the limits of what their bodies could demonstrate, overall, Lyu Bu still held an advantage. Even so, it would be difficult for him to take down Guan Yu within a hundred moves.

Therefore, Guan Yu was able to fight back against Lyu Bu with a counter-charge. Otherwise, if nobody could stop Lyu Bu from breaking through at will, the entire legion would collapse before long.

However, despite this, the situation for Guan Yu’s entire legion was not very good. At first, when the Cloud Qi had not been fully activated, Lyu Bu had already penetrated their lines, cutting through the central army’s defenses, leaving it in disarray. Had it not been for Guan Yu’s determined defense and the continuous ergence of Cloud Qi, Lyu Bu would have been able to lead the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to punch through the central army!

If it were just Lyu Bu, it might be okay since Guan Yu had barely managed to block Lyu Bu. The central army had also ford up to withstand Lyu Bu’s charge. In fact, the biggest threat to Guan Yu’s entire army at the mont was the Wolf Cavalry led by Zhang Liao and Hao ng.

The entire flanks had conceded passages made by Zhang Liao and Hao ng with the charge of the Vanguard Camp, allowing them to break through. Afterward, even with Xuu Chu and Jiang Gong leading the elite soldiers to shore up the flanks, they could only barely hold the edges of the defenses, and this was still considering the tactics Zhang Liao and Hao ng used when they initially tried to puncture through the flanks!

A short while ago, Zhang Liao had determined that Xuu Chu and Tiger Guard were tough nuts to crack, decisively capitalizing on the swiftness of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry and the ferocity of the Trap Formation. With swift movents and charges, he left the flanks teetering on the brink of collapse, rendering Xuu Chu and Jiang Gong essentially just chasing after Zhang Liao and Hao ng, struggling to keep up!

[This is bad!] Guan Yu cleaved down a Bingzhou Wolf Cavalryman, his cloak behind him already soaked with blood. He understood very clearly that if either of the flanks collapsed, the entire army could follow suit!
