Three Kingdoms: Ten Times Speed, Diao Chan Says I'm Too Fast

Chapter 411 The Han Crossbow and the Death of Beigong Boyu! [2]

Xiutuze.

The area only floods during the rainy season each year.

However, due to the unpredictable weather in recent years, the Xiutuze is dry most of the time.

However, this year the entire Liangzhou region has enjoyed favorable weather, which seems to be in stark contrast to the climate of the Han Dynasty, allowing Xiutu Marsh to regain its former vitality.

Wild animals from the desert have begun to gather here again.

The water accumulated from Xiutuze covered Wuwei and flowed down to Xuanwei, nourishing the land on both sides of the Lu River once again.

There are rumors and folk songs that it was because Duan Yu came to Liangzhou that Liangzhou had such favorable weather and abundant harvests.

At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves thundered across the damp land of Xiutuze.

Beigong Boyu, who had fled all the way from Wuwei City, led the Huangzhong Yicong northward toward the direction of Xiutu Ze.

Along the route of the Yi Cong from Huangzhong, the high-lying landforms on both sides, formed by the interlayering of Precambrian granite gneiss, Ordovician-Silurian quartz sandstone and quartzite, created a unique landscape.

The sound of galloping hooves echoed endlessly between the Kanas landscape, which resembled a valley on both sides.

After entering Xiutu Marsh, the Huangzhong Yicong split into several groups and fled.

In addition to the fleeing Hu cavalry, the Xiutu Marsh was now teeming with soldiers.

And not far behind Beigong Boyu.

Duan Yu took the lead and pursued the Huangzhong Righteous Army led by Beigong Boyu.

Due to the reason for the entry "Bloody Battle in All Directions".

Duan Yu didn't know when it would be triggered again.

Moreover, "Bloody Battle in All Directions" is different from the previous "Unstoppable Advance".

【Undeterred】Only a burst of energy is unleashed at the very front of the halberd being wielded.

There will be no problem as long as the accompanying cavalry follows behind.

However, the "Blood Battle in All Directions" skill is activated in all eight directions around the body without any blind spots.

This means that whenever he uses his halberd, there cannot be any friendly forces within a hundred paces of his body.

Therefore, Tie Shitou, Wang Hunu, Zhao Yun, Zhao Feng, and others, along with their Flying Bear Cavalry and personal guards, could only follow a hundred paces away.

With the added speed of the Crimson Dragon Cloud-Treading Beast, the Flying Bear Riders behind them quickly widened the distance between themselves and Duan Yu.

Xia Yu had previously mentioned that the terrain within the Xiutu Marsh was complex.

It's entirely because this area is dominated by the Kanas landform.

If you venture in during a dry season, you could very well get trapped and die inside.

Only when the Xiutu Marsh is full of water can the Lu River, formed by the water flow, flow out of the Xiutu Marsh.

More than half an hour had passed since they traced the trail from Wuwei City all the way to Xiutuze.

"stop!"

Tie Shitou, who had been chasing Duan Yu for a while, raised his arm when he stood at a fork in the road formed by shale deposits that resembled a hill.

The personal guards and Flying Bear cavalry behind him all stopped in their tracks.

Iron Stone, on horseback, frowned as he looked at the directions marked with hoofprints on both sides, momentarily bewildered.

"this......"

Tie Shitou scratched his head and looked at Wang Hunu beside him, complaining, "What the hell is this place? Why are there so many forks in the road?"

They had already encountered two forks in the road.

In order to accurately locate Duan Yu's position, Zhao Yun and Zhao Feng had already split up their forces once.

With hoofprints everywhere, Tie Shitou had no idea which direction Duan Yu had gone.

"Let's split up."

Wang Hunu pointed to the road on the right and said, "It's either this one or that one."

"Let's each take another group of troops and continue chasing down below."

Tie Shitou twitched the corner of his mouth.

That's all we can do.

"Hurry up, Lord Junhou's Crimson Dragon Cloud Stepping is already fast. If we don't keep up, Lord Junhou will have already returned with Beigong Boyu's head, and we'll still be going around in circles here," Wang Hunu said.

Tie Shitou nodded: "Okay, let's go after them."

After saying this, Tie Shitou raised his whip and then divided his troops to the right.

Wang Hunu, on the other hand, split his forces to the left.

Shortly after the two left.

Another army also arrived at this place.

Han Sui, panting heavily, was flanked by Bian Zhang and Yan Xing, who also stopped at the fork in the road.

"What is Beigong Boyu up to in here? So many troops have come in, and now they're all scattered."

Wearing armor and holding a riding whip, Bian Zhang frowned as he looked at the fork in the road.

Han Sui glanced around and then said, "I suspect he's trying to use the complex terrain here to escape."

"Or perhaps there's something else hidden here."

“When we were stationed here before, I discovered that Li Wenhou, who was under Beigong Boyu’s command, led his troops deep into this area several times, and he also brought those crossbows transported from Beidi County.”

"Huh?" Bian Zhang was taken aback.

"He...he has another ambush here?"

Bian Zhang asked in surprise, "No wonder, no wonder we didn't see those ballistae and crossbows during the siege. Did he hide them?"

Han Sui shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. Maybe he just wants to keep those things for himself."

"Let's go, ignore him. His 60,000 troops are gone. He's definitely going to fail this time."

"The most important thing now is to escape. We can take advantage of the fact that Duan Yu's troops are fighting with those Hu cavalry outside, while Duan Yu himself has entered the Xiutu Marsh."

"This is a good opportunity to escape in the chaos."

"If we wait until those barbarian cavalry are wiped out, we won't be able to leave even if we want to."

"Walk."

With that, Han Sui spurred his horse toward the valley path on the right.

More than a thousand Han soldiers followed Han Sui in the direction he had chosen.

.............

Whoosh!

A sharp arrow pierced the air, making a whistling sound, and shot down a member of the Huangzhong militia who was following Beigong Boyu in his escape.

The golden arrow pierced the cavalryman's chest without slowing down, and continued to pierce the chest of the man in front of him as well.

boom!

Without warning, two soldiers from the Huangzhong Righteous Army fell directly from their horses to the ground and were trampled to a bloody pulp by the warhorses behind them.

Duan Yu, riding on the Crimson Dragon Cloud-Treading Beast, remained in the posture of drawing his bow.

This is already the hundred people Duan Yu has shot down.

When Duan Yu first chased them in, he didn't expect the terrain to be so complicated.

This is a scaled-down version of the Kanas landscape.

Let alone in this day and age, even in the era of communication, being trapped in a place like this would be just as dangerous.

At first, you could see Tie Shitou and the others following behind.

But as Duan Yu chased after them, he realized that Tie Shitou and the others behind him had disappeared.

However, the number of the Huangzhong Yicong who were by Beigong Boyu's side was also decreasing.

At this time, the number of Huangzhong Yizun who were still following Beigong Boyu was less than three hundred.

Moreover, this number is constantly decreasing.

Duan Yu, on horseback, kept shooting down the Huangzhong rebels who were fleeing alongside Beigong Boyu.

One reason was to kill the enemy, and the other reason was that he wanted to use this method to leave a mark on Tie Shitou, Wang Hunu, and others.

Duan Yu didn't take a mere three hundred people seriously.

If Beigong Boyu dares to stop, he will only face certain death.

Along this route, Bei Gong Boyu and Li Wenhou were accompanied by several thousand cavalry.

But every time they passed a crossroads, Beigong Boyu would send out some troops.

The intention was to use this method to confuse Duan Yu's pursuit.

Unfortunately, Bei Gong Boyu underestimated the speed of the Crimson Dragon Cloud-Treading Beast.

On the Crimson Dragon Cloud-Treading Beast, Duan Yu prepared to draw his bow again, but when he looked down, he found that there were no arrows left in his quiver.

Just then, a 45-degree turn appeared ahead.

Duan Yu frowned and urged his horse on.

"Run? I'll see where you can run to!"

After catching up on horseback, Duan Yu turned the corner and found himself in front of a huge, basin-shaped terrain.

It's about the size of a basketball court.

Opposite to where Duan Yu chased after them was another exit.

Meanwhile, Bei Gong Boyu, who had just been fleeing, was now blocking the exit with several hundred Huangzhong Yizhe who had joined him.

Ok?

Duan Yu frowned.

He looked at Beigong Boyu.

Why isn't this thing running anymore?

Subconsciously, Duan Yu looked up at the towering weathered shale formations on both sides of his body.

The weathered shale on both sides is piled up to the height of a three-story building, just like the stands of a stadium.

Behind Beigong Boyu was the only exit.

The only entrance is behind Duan Yu.

It's like a ticket gate, an exit for leaving.

Hanging the precious carved bow on his saddle, Duan Yu removed the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd.

"Marquis Ji..."

"This is the first time I have ever been so close to Marquis Ji."

From a distance, Beigong Boyu smiled and said, "This must be the first time Marquis Ji has met me."

The sound clearly reached Duan Yu's ears.

Duan Yu smiled, and with a flick of his wrist, the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd shook, causing the sand on it to fall.

"This is the first and the last time. Do you have any last words?" Duan Yu asked as he slowly rode his horse toward Beigong Boyu.

Bei Gong Boyu suddenly chuckled.

"Yes, this is probably the last time I will see Marquis Ji."

"It took me more than half a year and tens of thousands of lives to bring Marquis Ji here. Unfortunately, this is the last time I will meet with Marquis Ji."

"Tsk, tsk."

As Beigong Boyu spoke, he shook his head and said, "It is truly a pity. It is a pity that Marquis Ji, a hero of his generation who has never been defeated, is going to die in this desolate place today."

Duan Yu looked at Bei Gong Boyu with a cold gaze.

Suddenly, a loud bang came from behind.

Duan Yu turned around abruptly and discovered that the entrance he had come from had collapsed from both sides.

"Ha ha!"

Bei Gong Boyu looked up and laughed loudly.

As Beigong Boyu's laughter rang out.

In an instant, a large number of Huangzhong guerrillas wielding powerful crossbows appeared above their heads.

Duan Yu slightly raised his head and looked around.

Besides crossbows, there were even ballistae used only for defending cities.

Powerful crossbow bolt!

Ballista!

How did these two things end up here?

Although they were still far away, Duan Yu could tell at a glance that the crossbows and ballistae were standard Han army crossbows and ballistae.

In other words, only the Han army would possess it.

Moreover, they were not ordinary Han troops.

Ordinary soldiers in Liangzhou were not equipped with powerful crossbows or ballistae.

"Duan Yu!"

"This is the graveyard I carefully prepared for you!"

Bei Gong Boyu's smile twisted into a grimace as he said, "You think I divided my forces along the way to escape?"

"Ha ha!"

"I was just trying to distract those loyal dogs behind you."

"You think my plan was to use myself as bait to lure your generals here, and then surround and kill you with 60,000 men?"

"you are wrong!"

"This is the real gift I've prepared for you!"

Duan Yu, riding on the Crimson Dragon Cloud-Treading Beast, had a gloomy expression.

Bei Gong Boyu!

This man single-handedly disrupted the entire Liangzhou region, even forcing the Han Dynasty to abandon it.

He already thought highly of the fact that he had single-handedly reached the gates of Chang'an and threatened the warlord of Liangzhou in the Three Auxiliary Regions.

However, it seems that his vision was not broad enough.

Indeed, to leave such a significant mark at such a brilliant age.

None of them are simple people.

He was indeed a bit careless.

Of course, this is also due to the recently upgraded [Bloody Battle in All Directions].

It can only be said that Bei Gong Boyu's success in luring him here was partly due to planning and partly due to luck.

Just as Beigong Boyu was laughing loudly because he had succeeded, he looked up.

Duan Yu suddenly raised his arm and hurled the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd in his hand.

"Die!"

Duan Yu roared angrily.

At this moment, the two were several tens of meters apart.

No one could have imagined that someone could throw such a heavy weapon so far.

Unfortunately, Duan Yu was able to do just that.

puff!

With its powerful momentum and force, the Heavenly Dragon City-Breaking Halberd pierced through Beigong Boyu from his warhorse and pinned him to the shale fault behind him.

Just a second ago, Bei Gong Boyu was laughing loudly when he suddenly spat out blood.

Even Li Wenhou, who was standing to the side, was stunned with fright.

"put!"

"Fire arrows!"

“Shoot!!”

"Shoot him!"

Li Wenhou gave the order.

The crossbows and crossbows overhead fired simultaneously.
