Battle Royale of the Sinners

Chapter 323

Chapter 323 – Trapping Hua Xiong

"Where is this place!?"

Hua Xiong forgot to pay attention to the horn signal as he was too shocked by the sudden change of the night and day .

In disarray, the 50,000 heavy horsemen failed to react when 20,000 knights in shiny armors appeared before them .

...

Li Feihong had laid a trap to separate Xiongnu soldiers .

Two days ago, Li Feihong transferred all of his troops into his private dimension and crossed the river by exiting another portal, which opened on the opposite side of the river .

Lu Bu exited the gate and marched west toward Henan County .

Because of Lu Bu had experiences dealing with the Xiongnu, he disguised 5,000 horsemen with Xiongnu’s native silk clothes and entered Henan County without being suspected .

Inside the Henan County, Lu Bu wreaked havoc and occupied the county within the day .

After Henan County had been taken down, Li Feihong opened another portal behind Hangu Pass, and Zhang Liao leaped out of the portal .

As a veteran raider, Zhang Liao had no problem killing the unprepared soldiers behind the Hangu Pass and took the checkpoint .

The stage was prepared, and it was the time to lure in the actors .

The next day, Li Feihong took his time to get closer to Luo Yang . Upon arriving there, he opened a portal inside Luo Yang City, releasing the Ghost Legion inside .

Then today, Li Feihong moved east . He deployed Ding Yuan and his horsemen 10 kilometers east of Hua Xiong’s main camp . In his plan, Ding Yuan had to harass Hua Xiong’s 200,000 soldiers from the east and retreat back into the gate to confuse the enemies .

He raced back to Hangu Gate alone, which he also blew the signal horn to confuse Hua Xiong .

When Hua Xiong reached the Hangu Pass, Li Feihong intentionally opened a portal under the checkpoint, so all soldiers of Xiongnu would enter his dimension world .

Then, he rushed back to Henan to support Lu Bu .

Every led to the presence .

...

Zhang Liao and his 10,000 heavy knights, who had reentered the portal yesterday, charged at Hua Xiong Army .

The lighter but more durable steel clashed with Xiongnu’s iron spears . Warhorses with steel armors rammed with Xiongnu’s warhorses, which only wore silk armor .

The first minute of battle belonged to Zhang Liao and his men because the Xiongnu could not keep up with the sudden ambush charge .

Hua Xiong recovered from the shock . He shoved his men aside to get to the frontline .

As soon as Hua Xiong saw the enemies, he roared, "Insolence!"

*BOOM*

The heavy knight with the steel armor was sent flying by Hua Xiong’s halberd . The chest armor dented from the impact, and the rider fell on the ground .

More knights with spears, halberds, and lance charged at Hua Xiong .

"Humph!"

Hua Xiong held his breath and attacked the oncoming enemies with a horizontal swing, which his weapon clashed with theirs, creating clanking noise .

Yet, it was not enough to kill them .

As Hua Xiong realized that he could not find a gap in the knight armors to inflict direct injuries to the soldiers, he changed his approach .

The general exerted his mental strength and expanded his killing intent . The oppressing air engulfed the soldiers, which caused their movement to stagger .

Seeing that the soldiers paused, Hua Xiong exhaled a sigh of relief .

’In the end, they’re just soldiers with good equipment . ’

Before Hua Xiong could kill a single knight, they moved and continued attacking .

"What!?"

He exclaimed in shock . Hua Xiong was confident that his killing intent aura just now should have scared all the soldiers to the point that their legs turned into jellies .

Unfortunately, Hua Xiong did not know that Lu Bu and Li Feihong’s killing intent was stronger than his .

At this moment, Zhang Liao found Hua Xiong .

"I AM ZHANG LIAO!"

With a bellow and the signature introduction, Zhang Liao charged at Hua Xiong . However, he did not use his usual halberd to attack the enemy general .

A Benelli shotgun was in his hands .

*BANG*

It was a point-blank shotgun blast which the buckshot sprayed into Hua Xiong’s face . The little iron ball from the shotgun shell entered his skull, cracking the bone and crushing his brain .

With one shot, the cautious general, who should have been killed by either Sun Jian or Guan Yu, died by Tong’s creation .

"Man, I love this thing . Kakakaka! Too bad I don’t have many bullets . "

Zhang Liao laughed as he fell in love with firearms .

Even after Hua Xiong’s death, Xiongnu remaining soldiers did not give up fighting . They insisted on fighting Zhang Liao’s tanking knights to the last breath without utter a word of surrendering .

It put Zhang Liao and his 10,000 soldiers in a tight spot as they were outnumbered .

In the first few minutes, Zhang Liao and his men killed 10,000 Xiongnu in an instant . They rushed into Xiongnu disarrayed formation to finish off these barbarians, but changes occurred after minutes into the fight .

Xiongnu reorganized without Hua Xiong’s command or his existence . The formation, which had been broken into several groups, reformed into small battalions and surrounded Zhang Liao’s men instead . They pulled out their short bows and rain of arrows arrived at the packed formation of the knights .

With the absolute defense of steel plate armor set, Zhang Liao used the durability of his armor to withstand the arrows and spears of Xiongnu cavalries . He aimed his shotgun and fired at all potential leaders he found .

Ten 1,000-man-commanders under Zhang Liao also took out their shotgun to return-fire, which injured and killed leaders of small groups .

The Mountaineer 10,000 soldiers repelled the sudden counter-attacks of scattered groups of cavalries and butchered more Xiongnu men .

After fighting for an hour, Zhang Liao’s soldiers began to suffer casualties as they were tired . They managed to kill another 20,000 Xiongnu cavalries with difficulty, but the Xiongnu got used to their speed and reacted without a leader .

20,000 remaining Xiongnu used their trademark short bows to cripple the horses of Zhang Liao’s men and kept the distance away from the heavy knights . 1,000 of 10,000 Zhang Liao’s men had fallen as they failed to react in time .

"Retreat, Wenyuan . "

Hearing the voice of Li Feihong, Zhang Liao clicked his tongue .

"Oh well . Fighting Xiongnu is different from fighting militias . I should have mentally prepared for this . Prepare to retreat!"

Trading 1,000 soldiers for Xiongnu 30,000 horsemen was profitable, but Zhang Liao was not that satisfied . He glared at the barbarians with a fire of grudge in his eyes .

The 20,000 fearless cloned barbarians chased after Zhang Liao, but they were stopped by a mysterious portal which opened in front of them .

A giant red warhorse and a lone knight in steel armor, which was painted in red, exited the magic gate . His glowing eyes glared at them, emitting sharp killing intent . The aura of the red knight oppressed the Xiongnu as the sinister cold air made their heart skipped a beat .

Lu Bu had entered the battlefield .

Zhang Liao exited the portal by using the same gate that Lu Bu came from, exchanging their duties . Because Lu Bu was assigned to guard Henan County, Zhang Liao had to replace Lu Bu if he entered the gate to clean up the Xiongnu soldiers inside .

The voice of Li Feihong did not stop, "Do you think you can handle everything on your own for another one or two hours?"

"... Maybe . "

"It doesn’t sound very confident, Fengxian . "

"... Maybe . "

"Well, don’t die, okay?"

"... Maybe?"

"..."

Lu Bu stopped messing with Li Feihong . He stood on the back of his horse instead of riding it and stared down at the hesitating Xiongnu soldiers .

Each hand of Lu Bu was holding a crescent halberd, a dual-wielding style . With a light step on the red hare, he leaped toward the pack of Xiongnu cavalries while two white wings on his back spread to the side .

Both hands and Lu Bu’s halberds disappeared from the vision of Xiongnu soldiers, and whistling noise of halberd swings followed .

Heads flew into the air as Lu Bu leaped from one horseman to another . The red knight’s weapon speed surpassed the abilities of these soldiers as they could not even see the after images of Lu Bu’s arms .

Each strike from Lu Bu reaped one life, but each of his halberds found seven heads within one second .

Fourteen riders were killed each second!

As Lu Bu was harvesting the lives of these clone troopers, his mind was comprehending a Dao .

’Human brains operate faster than our imagination . By closing my eyes for one second, I can experience an hour of dreams . ’

’Time Alter that Tong and Xiao Wu used was based on this natural law . By accelerating the processing power within my brain, my perception improves . The entire world will go slower while I can still move at the same speed . ’

’Overclocking the brain . That is Tong’s first step . ’

’The next step is going beyond the limit of human’s potential . Tong used to fight to the limit that he often got a nosebleed, and that was how he kept improving . ’

’Then, the secret of the Time Alter is ... the further level of the processing acceleration . ’

Lu Bu muttered as he mimicked what Tong used against him .

"... Double Accel . "

A surge of blood pressure rushed into Lu Bu’s brain, increasing the brain processing speed to the limit . Several minor blood vessels ruptured, which Lu Bu could feel the chilling cold inside his head . A drop of blood dripped from his nose, and his both eyes became bloodshot .

In exchange for such damages, Lu Bu sensed that the world around him almost came to a stop, yet he could freely move in this distorted world .

It lasted for only a second, but it was enough to make Lu Bu smile .

’I have caught your tail, Tong! I’ll reach your level soon!’

Lu Bu laughed for the first time after years of self-reflection . His anxieties and his worries disappeared as they were replaced with joy .

As he let out his laughter, a streak of red afterimages roamed the battlefield, painting Li Feihong’s world with the blood of Xiongnu soldiers .

"AHAHAHAHAHA!!"

...

Lu Bu spent two hours to slaughter all remaining Hua Xiong’s subordinates . After butchered the last rider, he took off the red knight helmet to get fresh air .

The long white hair of Lu Bu fluttered in the wind while his matured looking face revealed a blissful smile .

"When was the last time that I felt this good after a battle?"

While Lu Bu was in a good mood, Li Feihong’s voice interrupted him .

"Sorry to interrupt you, Fengxian . I need you back at Henan County, or everyone over there will be slaughtered at this rate . "

"What is it now?"

"Xiongnu King shows up, and he is helping the others attacking the county . He’s using the spirits to attack our soldiers, and I can’t stop him . "

"Open the gate let me go out there . As for the defenders, withdraw back into this dimension . "

A portal opened before Lu Bu, which he leaped into the gate without hesitation . As soon as he got outside, he found himself inside Henan County, which was being overrun by Xiongnu Army .
