The Three Kingdoms: Hindsight is 20/20, and the Three Revivals of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 169 Zhuge Liang strategizes and Liu Bei leads his troops into battle (4th update)
The legend of Guan Yu slaying Tadun amidst a vast army has left Zhang Yan and other Black Mountain generals with some doubts.

However, at this moment, Guan Yu's heroic figure had completely dispelled everyone's doubts!

Riding a red-maned horse, Guan Yu mercilessly tore apart the Tu Ge and Wu Huan armies. Wherever he went, no one could withstand a single blow from him!
What's even more chilling is that Guan Yu not only ruthlessly tore apart the lines between the Tu Ge camp and the Wu Huan camp, but also charged straight at the Wu Huan camp's general's flag. With just one slash, the Wu Huan general was decapitated; with another slash, the general's flag, which symbolized command, crashed down!

Without even glancing at the Wuhuan soldiers who were stunned by the death of their commander, Guan Yu turned his horse around and charged straight at the commander of the Tu Ge camp with the force of thunder.

"Is this... even human?"

With wide eyes and speechless astonishment, he stared at Guan Yu, who seemed to be moving through an empty space. Subconsciously putting himself in the shoes of the Wuhuan camp's commander, a chill ran down his spine.

Reminded by Fuyun, Zhang Yan suddenly realized what was happening and hurriedly put on the banner of "General Zhang of Pingbei". At the same time, he quickly moved his troops to the left to distance himself from the Tu Ge and Wu Huan camps.

Once they regained their footing, Zhang Yan was shocked to discover that the banner of the Tu Ge camp's commander had also vanished without a trace. All she could hear was a deep, absent-minded murmur: "General Guan is truly a god!"

Just as he was about to ask, Guan Yu suddenly appeared on horseback galloping towards them!

The Black Mountain army was so terrified that they scattered and automatically made way for Guan Yu!

As Zhang Yan and the others were still in shock, Guan Yu reined in his horse fifty paces away and shouted sternly, "Military Advisor Zhuge has ordered! The Black Mountain Army shall remain in place and not move rashly! Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy! You may come and surrender only after General Zuo has pacified the Hu army!"

After saying this, Guan Yu turned his horse around again and charged straight into the already collapsing remnants of the Tu Ge and Wu Huan armies. His figure disappeared into the distance, leaving Zhang Yan and the others looking at each other in silence.

What is deterrence?

Guan Yu is a living example of intimidation!
At this moment, Zhang Yan, Lei Gong, and the others had only one thought in their minds: they must not make enemies of Liu Bei!

Fu Yun shook his head bitterly: "I was too naive to have dared to suggest an inside-outside attack in front of Strategist Zhuge. Now that I'm on this battlefield, I'm just a burden."

And to the south and east.

The two generals, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, who had been holding back for a long time, also showed their true bravery.

After being defeated by Cao Cao and thwarted by Guan Yu, the pent-up frustration in his heart finally found an outlet.

If they couldn't defeat Cao Cao and Guan Yu, were they really no match for these Tu Ge and Wuhuan people?
Although they lacked Guan Yu's divine prowess in taking the head of a commander from ten thousand troops as easily as taking something out of a bag, Yan and Wen's bravery was far beyond what the Hu soldiers on the south and west flanks could withstand.

Before long, the enemy on the south and west sides had been routed and were fleeing in disarray to the north.

"Quickly join forces with General Guan!"

Yan Liang pursued the Hu soldiers all the way from the south to the west, and after joining forces with Wen Chou, their offensive became even more devastating!
The two rode side by side, moving through the routed Tu Ge and Wu Huan armies as if they were nothing!

The sudden change left Huchuquan and Afugan stunned and pale.

"Don't panic! Our army is large enough to divide its forces and fight back!" Hu Chuquan forced himself to remain calm and gave the order in a stern voice.

Before he could finish speaking, a defeated soldier came running up crying and reporting, "Xiongyu, the rear guard is about to collapse!"

"Useless!" Hu Chuquan lashed his whip at the defeated soldiers, shouting angrily, "What is King Zuo Guli doing? He can't even hold the rear!"

"The Left Guli King was shot and killed by a Han general!" The defeated soldier's voice trembled with fear.

Huchuquan's breathing suddenly tightened. Zuo Guli King's position in the royal court was second only to the Left and Right Wise Kings. He was actually a great general in the Tu Ge army, yet he was easily shot and killed by a Han general.

Filled with shock and anger, Hu Chuquan couldn't help but complain, "As a general, why didn't you take command from the center and instead rushed into battle so easily?"

The defeated soldiers grew increasingly terrified: "Zuo Guli King was shot and killed by that Han general from a hundred paces away, right under our banner! That Han general charged alone to within a hundred paces of our banner and killed us with a single arrow!"

Hu Chuquan's eyes widened instantly!
To hit a willow leaf from a hundred paces is already an exceptional archery skill, but to be able to charge alone on horseback to within a hundred paces of enemy troops, surrounded by them, and still accurately shoot and kill one of their generals is truly remarkable.
These Han generals were so skilled in archery and horsemanship, and their courage was simply astonishing!
Before Huchuquan could come up with a countermeasure, another soldier urgently reported that the rear guard was in dire straits. "Afugan! You and I will split into two groups and attack from both sides. We must surround and kill this Han army!" Huchuquan was furious and decided to temporarily ignore the defeat at the west and east gates and focus all his efforts on killing the Han army in the rear.

"Leave it to me!" Wuhuan leader Afugan, confident in his bravery, roared and led his troops in a charge to the right, brandishing his long spear.

As soon as the two men moved their flags, Zhuge Liang on the city wall keenly seized the opportunity.

Military orders were issued one after another like shooting stars, and command flags fluttered on the city walls, rapidly transmitting orders to the Han armies on both the east and west sides.

Upon seeing the banner, Guan Yu on the west and Yan Liang and Wen Chou on the east immediately changed their attack direction, like two giant iron pincers, tacitly and rapidly encircling the northern battlefield.

The battlefield at this moment has become a series of deadly traps:

Liu Bei used his troops with ease, personally leading Huang Zhong and his elite cavalry from Dai Commandery to penetrate deep into the rear of the Tu Ge and Wu Huan allied forces, their advance unstoppable!
Huchuquan and Afugan attempted to divide their forces to the left and right, intending to encircle and annihilate the Han army that had penetrated their heart.

Meanwhile, on their flanks, Guan Yu and Yan Liang and Wen Chou's two elite cavalry units were like two surging torrents, one on the left and one on the right, fiercely flanking Huchuquan and Afugan from the outside!

It truly proves the old saying: "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind!"

Just as Avgan led his troops out to encircle Liu Bei's flank, a series of thunderous hoofbeats suddenly approached!
The cavalry, led by Yan Liang and Wen Chou as the left and right vanguards, had already appeared on the flanks and rear of Afugan's army formation. The Han cavalry, their eyes bloodshot with rage, mercilessly slashed at the unsuspecting Wuhuan cavalry's flanks under the leadership of Yan Liang and Wen Chou!
"Fell into a trap!"

By the time Afugan realized what was happening, it was too late, and he had no choice but to turn around and fight Yan Liang and Wen Chou.

at the same time.

Huchuquan commanded the elite troops of the Tuge Army to press towards the left flank.

Suddenly, I saw that the right flank of my army was in complete disarray, with shouts of battle shaking the heavens and the earth. I also saw that Avgan's banner was waving violently and collapsing at a speed visible to the naked eye!

A bone-chilling cold rushed straight to Hu Chuquan's head.

"escape!"

Without much hesitation, Hu Chuquan chose to break through.

All the changes on the battlefield were observed by Zhuge Liang.

The flag is waving.

Huang Zhong, with his sharp eyes, quickly looked in the direction of the Huchuquan banner.

"The thief is about to escape!"

Seeing Tu Daqi heading north to break through the encirclement, Huang Zhong urgently ordered his men to attack.

Seeing that there were only a dozen or so riders following, Huang Zhong hesitated for only a moment before the veins on his arm bulged and his long sword pointed towards Huchuquan's banner: "To capture the enemy, first capture the king. I will share the credit with you all!"

Inspired by Huang Zhong's imposing manner and tempted by the promise of sharing great merit, the dozen or so riders on either side shouted, "We are willing to fight to the death with the general!"

With his left and right cavalry following him, Huang Zhong charged straight at the Huchuquan banner like a sharp blade.

"Chanyu, the Han general who shot and killed the Left Guli King is here again!" A terrified cry nearly startled Huchuquan off his horse.

Hu Chuquan, head down, urged his horse forward while shouting to his men, "Quick! Stop him! Stop him!"
