Chapter 83 Huangfu Wuwei, Divine Spear Destroys the Enemy
However, just as Huangfu Gong's troops cut deep into the Dongyi camp like a sharp blade, and were less than two miles away from the high-flying banner, a cloud of dust rose from the side and a relatively well-organized Dongyi cavalry force galloped over, blocking their path!
The leading general, clad in golden helmet and iron armor, with a sinister face, was none other than Helan Da, Helan Cangfeng's cousin and the commander of ten thousand men in charge of the outer perimeter of the central army!
His three thousand cavalrymen were the elite force of the Helan clan, well-equipped and well-trained. They were both shocked and furious to see the Xia army's surprise attack had already reached this place.
"Huangfu Palace's flag? Hmph, so it's just a remnant of the Huangfu family!"
Helanda immediately recognized the conspicuous Dragon Gallant Silver Spear and the banner. A flicker of fear crossed his eyes, quickly replaced by ferocity.
"A mere few thousand cavalry dares to venture deep into enemy territory and charge straight at the central army?"
"They're utterly courting death! Men, form ranks! I will crush these arrogant scoundrels right here! Let them know that those who offend my central army deserve only death!"
"Helanda, Strength: 104, Command: 79, Intelligence: 67, Politics: 70"
Upon receiving the order, three thousand elite cavalry of the Helan clan swiftly deployed, forming an attack wedge formation with spears like a forest, pressing forward with murderous intent. They clearly intended to use the terrain to intercept, entangle, or even annihilate Huangfu Gong's troops.
Huangfu Gong abruptly reined in his warhorse, and the surging torrent of iron cavalry behind him slowly came to a halt, quickly adjusting their formation and forming a wedge formation to counter it.
The two cavalrymen faced off amidst billowing smoke and the stench of blood, the atmosphere instantly becoming extremely tense.
"General, the enemy cavalry is elite and numerous. Should we retreat for now?" the lieutenant whispered.
Huangfu Gong's gaze was fixed on Helanda, and he slowly shook his head, his voice resolute:
"Helan Cangfeng is within reach; how can we stop because of a dog blocking our path? This thief is Helan's trusted confidant; killing him will not only cripple Helan but also intimidate the enemy army, allowing us to march straight to their lair!"
He took a deep breath, channeling the surging hatred and fighting spirit within him into the tip of his spear, his voice echoing across the surrounding area:
"Warriors of Great Xia! Before us lie the henchmen of our enemies. Step forward, and the bandit leader will be at the front! Follow me—break through their lines, slay their generals, and take Helan's head! Avenge General Huangfu! Kill!"
"Revenge! Kill!" Five thousand iron cavalrymen roared with earth-shattering fury, their morale soaring to its peak as they shared a common hatred for the enemy!
Enraged, Helanda roared, "Arrogant! Die!" He spurred his horse forward and charged ahead with his spear! The spear tip tore through the air, emitting a shrill whistle, aimed straight at Huangfu Gong's face.
"Well done!" Huangfu Gong's eyes flashed with a cold light. He squeezed his legs and sent the Jade Lion of the Night into the fray, which turned into a white light to meet the attack!
The Dragon Gallant Silver Spear struck first despite being behind, its tip landing precisely on the tip of the opponent's thrusting spear!
"clang--!!!"
A deafening clang of metal shattered the eardrums! The tips of two fine iron spears clashed, exploding into a blinding cloud of sparks!
Helanda was violently shaken, feeling a powerful and domineering force surge through the gun barrel, making his arms numb and sore, his blood churning, and his tiger's mouth instantly split open, oozing blood.
The warhorse beneath him involuntarily staggered back three steps before the force dissipated, its eyes revealing horror.
He was confident in his strength, but he never expected that Huangfu Gong's physical strength would be so amazing!
Huangfu Palace remained firmly seated, while the Jade Lion that Shines at Night swayed only slightly.
Having tested his opponent's strength with a single move, he felt even more resolute, and the flames of revenge burned even more fiercely in his chest, as if his brother's spirit in heaven was channeling power into the spear in his hand.
"Helan's guns are nothing special! Take this!"
Huangfu Gong, having gained the upper hand, was relentless. With a roar, the Dragon Gallant Spear transformed into a sky full of silver light, unleashing the essence of the Huangfu family's secret spear technique!
Gunfire swirled, a mix of real and feints, sometimes surging forth like a dragon emerging from the sea, fierce and unparalleled, striking and sweeping across the battlefield.
Helanda dared not be careless, and used his family's secret spear technique to its fullest extent, countering each move and fighting back with all his might.
The two men spun around on horseback, locked in fierce combat. Spears clashed, their cold glint flashing, the sounds of their collisions incessant, sparks flying everywhere.
The two generals clashed head-on, and their cavalry clashed violently. Instantly, shouts of men and neighing of horses filled the air, swords flashed, and blood and flesh flew everywhere. The battle was extremely fierce.
Huangfu Gong knew that a swift victory was necessary, as a prolonged war would be disadvantageous.
The obsession with avenging his brother and the pressure of shouldering the heavy responsibility of leading a surprise attack combined to create a powerful force that propelled his marksmanship beyond its usual limits, making it increasingly sharp and ferocious!
The Dragon's Gall Spear seemed to be one with him, each strike carrying a deadly intent and burning hatred.
Thirty rounds passed in the blink of an eye.
Helanda grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed. The opponent's marksmanship, the sustained power of his attacks, and the intensity of his fighting spirit far exceeded his expectations.
Even more terrifying was the flame burning in those eyes, which seemed to want to incinerate him and everything around him!
He himself was getting increasingly breathless from the long battle, his arms were becoming heavier, and his movements were becoming sluggish.
"Die!" In the midst of the fierce battle, Huangfu Gong spotted an opening where his opponent was slightly slow to return his spear, and his eyes flashed with a sharp light.
The Dragon Spear suddenly accelerated, and with a "Dragon Head Raises Its Head" move, it skillfully deflected the opponent's parry. The spear tip, like a venomous snake spitting its tongue, swiftly stabbed at the point where Helanda's left scapula connected—a relatively weak point in his armor!
"Pfft!"
The spear tip pierced through the armor, and blood splattered! Helanda screamed in agony as his left arm went limp and the spear almost slipped from his hand.
The excruciating pain and fear froze him in place. How could Huangfu Gong let such a golden opportunity slip by? With a roar, he channeled all his strength into his arms, using the momentum to thrust the Dragon Gall Spear forward!
"Penetrating!"
"Ugh!" Helanda's scream came to an abrupt halt.
The sharp spear tip pierced his chest completely, protruding more than a foot from his back, with blood dripping from the tip.
His eyes bulged as he stared intently at Huangfu Gong's cold face, which was so close to his own, his eyes filled with disbelief, horror, and despair.
Huangfu Gong exerted force with both arms and suddenly swung upwards!
Helanda's body was lifted off the horse, arcing through the air before crashing heavily into the chaotic battle formation, kicking up a cloud of dust.
"Wan Hu is dead!"
"General Helan has been killed in action!"
With their commander instantly killed in battle, the morale of the Helan elite cavalry, already low due to news of the defeat at the front, was struck as if by lightning, and their formation fell into chaos.
Amidst terrified cries, their will to resist crumbled, and the cavalrymen began to turn their horses around and flee in all directions, disregarding everything else.
"The traitorous general has been slain! All troops, heed my command!" Huangfu Gong drew his blood-stained spear, raised it high above his head, his voice slightly hoarse from the fierce battle, yet carrying unparalleled authority and a chilling aura of killing intent.
"Do not linger in battle, ignore the routed soldiers! The objective remains unchanged: Helan Cangfeng's central command tent! Follow me and continue the charge! Straight to the heart of the enemy!"
"Strike straight at the heart of the enemy! Kill!"
Five thousand iron cavalrymen erupted in thunderous cheers, quickly shaking off sporadic resistance and regrouping into a sharp assault formation.
Led by Huangfu Gong, they seemed to ignore the surrounding chaos and fleeing soldiers, transforming into a straight, blood-red arrow.
With unstoppable force, tearing apart all insignificant obstacles along the way, they launched a final, fatal sprint toward the Eastern Barbarian commander's banner, which became increasingly clear and lonely amidst the smoke and chaos of battle!
The central army camp is almost within reach! Helan Cangfeng's doom has begun its countdown!
