Volume 4 is in the ascendant Chapter 416: Stubborn
Zhang Xiu was not familiar with Xu Huang, but when he saw someone wanted to fight with him, he was surprised at first, but then he was more than happy to do so!
Seeing that Xu Huang had many soldiers under his command, Zhang Xiu thought it was time to test out new equipment...
I didn't expect that Yang Feng had such a principled general under his command!
Xu Huang was seen wearing red and black armor and holding a double-headed axe with single-edged axes at both ends.
It can be seen at a glance that Xu Huang is wearing a gold and jade armor. Although gold and jade have "depreciated" now and Xu Huang is not a famous general on the battlefield, but... with this set of gold and jade, he barely caught Zhang Xiu's eye.
"Under the command of Yang Feng, there is a man like you? Well, I'll give you a chance to fight!" Zhang Xiu said as he put on armor and stepped forward.
If someone who didn't know heard Zhang Xiu's words, they might think that the power comparison between the two sides had been reversed - a tone that said, "If you fight, you will definitely lose."
Xu Huang didn't say much, he swung the double-headed axe and chopped towards Zhang Xiu!
When the double-headed axe is swung, you can see a small "engine" on the other side of the axe blade...
Every time Xu Huang chopped down with all his might, this small engine would spray to assist the giant axe. In addition to physical and arm strength, it also added a bit of horsepower!
Zhang Xiu still has the specious "big spear" shape...
Lu Bu also praised Zhang Xiu's talent, saying it was "not bad", but... his personality was indeed incompatible with the Bainiaochaofeng Spear, so he practiced it in a half-hearted way.
Zhao Yun first accepted Tong Yuan's spearmanship in its entirety, and then went on to further improve it without falling into the same old routine, bringing out his own characteristics and coming up with his own unique ideas. Zhang Xiu... learned 70% at first, and then he couldn't learn 30% anymore, so he started to explore his own way, but at the same time he always instinctively imitated teacher Tong Yuan.
After fighting with Xu Huang, Zhang Xiu also discovered that Xu Huang should be a pure military general, and the fighting generals were all good on the battlefield and had great force.
In particular, Xu Huang was very good at using horsepower to gain leverage. His armor transferred part of the horsepower to form an auxiliary engine for the weapon.
This is also a typical manifestation of battlefield martial arts. Warriors who come from martial arts backgrounds are generally weak in using horsepower...
Originally, Zhang Xiu thought that Xu Huang was just a newcomer to the throne after his wealth of gold and jade increased. After all, he was just an unknown figure before and was most likely no match for him.
Not long ago, Zhang Xiu heard that there was a transcendental phenomenon in Qingzhou, Guanzhong and Xiliang respectively - Zhao Yun felt it and told his senior brother about it!
Even the transcendent generals who are rarely seen in a hundred years have appeared one after another, and the number of gold, jade... is naturally even greater.
However, there is still a big gap between these new gold and jade and the old gold and jade like Zhang Xiu...
However, when he really started fighting, Zhang Xiu found that Xu Huang's martial arts skills were no less than his own!
In fact, Xu Huang was indeed promoted to Jinyu not long ago, just in the past few months, but... you have to know that Xu Huang had never been valued before.
The "gold content" of his golden and jade military token is still very high, and the bonus of official position is very small!
Therefore, once he made the breakthrough, his strength was close to that of veteran masters like Zhang Xiu.
This fight between the two was a match made in heaven, and the generals were well-matched. Moreover, there were no restrictions on Ji's soldiers, and neither of them had any intention of cheating. In front of the two armies, they fought from heaven to earth, and from earth to heaven!
When fighting, each time the two sides encountered each other in the air or on the ground was counted as "one round", and in a blink of an eye, after more than seventy rounds, there was still no winner!
but……
Zhang Xiu, however, had his own unique skills.
After the two of them fought for more than seventy rounds, the dark gold lines on Zhang Xiu's armor became increasingly glittering. If you get close enough and use the Ministry of Industry's microscope to look at it, you will find that there are nodes that hiss in the dark gold lines...
After more than seventy rounds, Xu Huang was not feeling well either - it seemed that Zhang Xiu's fame was not just due to his "connection". Well... if I took over, it would just be a draw.
Moreover, Xu Huang could see clearly that if he continued, he would probably be the loser.
Just looking at the two men's moves, we can tell that, in comparison, Zhang Xiu is a skill-based type, while Xu Huang is an explosive type. His movements are much bigger than Xu Huang's, so he naturally consumes physical energy faster!
Especially when the flashing frequency of the dark gold patterns on Zhang Xiu's body reached its peak, a dark gold phoenix with spread wings was formed on Zhang Xiu's armor.
At the same time, combined with Zhang Xiu's spear power, it formed a continuous sound of hundreds of birds singing!
"Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear!"
Zhang Xiu thrust out his spear, and the dark golden phoenix on his armor seemed to come alive, emitting countless spear energies, attacking Xu Huang...
Without the armor, Zhang Xiu's spear skills would not be enough to use this move. It was because Zhang Xiu constantly forced himself to use the armor to upgrade to adapt to the "Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear" that he reduced the impact of his lack of talent in this area.
In Zhao Yun's words, this actually restricted Zhang Xiu's development and was now his biggest shackle.
However, it must be admitted that Zhang Xiu, who possessed the Bainiaochaofeng Spear, even if he could not use it as he wished, still stood proudly among the first-class generals, rather than lingering at the quasi-first-class level.
Under the attack of countless spears, Xu Huang was defeated instantly, and even when he wanted to fly up to avoid it, he was stabbed in the thigh by Zhang Xiu's dark gold black beak spear!
When Yang Feng led his troops to appear from a distant hill, he happened to see this scene from afar...
Yang Feng's first reaction was relief, and his second reaction... was worry about Xu Huang's injuries.
At least it wasn't Xu Huang who hurt Zhang Xiu...
However, Yang Feng obviously underestimated Xu Huang's perseverance. Although Xu Huang was seriously injured and fell, he managed to contact other captains in the army. Not only did he reactivate his engine halfway and land as if no major problems had occurred, he also hurriedly urged his troops to move forward!
Yang Feng became anxious when he saw this, but the distance between him and the front army was at least a thousand steps, which was farther than the cavalry led by Zhang Xiu was from Xu Huang, and was also beyond the signal range, so he had no time to stop it.
I had no choice but to urge the army forward, and at the same time hope that Zhang Xiu would be more rational and avoid it first...
One thousand cavalry VS one thousand cavalry + four thousand infantry, there is no reason to fight head-on, right?
However, when Xu Huang's army discovered Yang Feng's move, they thought that reinforcements had arrived!
In addition, the enemy was not numerous, and although the commander had just been defeated in a duel, their originally low morale was boosted by the reinforcements, and they charged even more fiercely.
The typical Xiliang Army fighting style, Xiliang Iron Cavalry in the front in a cone formation, infantry in the back slowly moving in a square formation, even if the enemy wanted to attack the two wings, there was nothing they could do...
However, Zhang Xiu’s answer to this was - stubborn!
It is also a cavalry cone formation, with Zhang Xiu himself leading the charge. At the same time, it can be seen that the overall color of the armor of the cavalry at the tip of the cone is somewhat different, a kind of... "shiny" silver-black?
There was no intention of taking any shortcuts, and they actually used cavalry of the same size to forcibly collide with each other...
