Chapter 204: Beheading Guo Si, Recruiting Lü Bu
The Sharp Horn Spear absorbed the essence of thunder, transforming into a Thunder Spear, penetrating deep into the enemy ranks and shocking and killing the soldiers blocking the path ahead.
Long Chen then drew the Qingyang Sword from his waist, emitting bursts of dragon roars that made the Western Liang soldiers hesitate to confront him.
"Zhongkang, E Lai, protect me and charge to Guo Si’s front." Long Chen’s icy gaze locked onto Guo Si.
"Yes, my lord!"
"Understood!"
Dian Wei and Xu Chu positioned themselves on either side of Long Chen, guarding him as he advanced into the heart of the enemy.
Guo Si frowned, sensing a murderous intent.
Seeing Long Chen leading a fierce charge from hundreds of meters away, Guo Si was shocked.
He immediately ordered his fierce soldiers to rush towards him to block the approaching madman.
Who else but a madman would dare charge his tens of thousands of troops with just three thousand iron cavalry?
However, it wasn’t just Long Chen’s three thousand elite soldiers; there were also over twenty thousand Chang’an defenders charging from the other side under the command of Zhao Yun.
Guo Si panicked, desperately seeking a way to escape from this situation.
Suddenly, Long Chen’s thirty thousand troops emerged from ambush, combined with Guo Si’s own depleted morale, making them no match.
Yet, Long Chen was already close, his appearance resembling that of a thunder god deeply etched into Guo Si’s mind.
His large blade suddenly turned, releasing blade energy towards Long Chen.
But two purple-gold blade energies blocked it, as Xu Chu glared fiercely at Guo Si.
Looking to the other side, a huge ugly man looked at him fiercely.
"Damn it! What kind of people are these around Long Chen? There are such powerful generals following him. I don’t admit that I don’t admit it!"
Guo Si secretly sighed, his hands were not slow and hurriedly urged his horse to gallop away.
But it was over. freёwebnovel.com
Long Chen lightly patted the Ice Dragon King’s ice crystal, and the Ice Dragon King instantly understood.
The sharp bones on both sides were suddenly opened, and the sharp bones scratched both sides of the enemy’s army, while the mouth sprayed ice blades and hail.
The cold air is so cold that the soldiers are as if they are in a cold winter.
Now, the Ice Dragon King has gained a lot of experience through Long Chen’s continuous training and killing of the enemy.
It has been upgraded to level 70 and is Long Chen’s best partner!
Under the freezing effect, Guo Si felt that his warhorse was a bit slippery.
Looking down, there was already a layer of ice on the ground.
As a result, the speed was reduced a lot.
In addition to the unique breath of the Ice Dragon King, the war horses within a few miles were crawling on the ground.
Although Guo Si’s warhorse is not bad, it is also suppressed by blood.
Long Chen caught up and secretly said: "System, check Guo Si’s attribute panel ..."
[Name]: Guo Si
[Relationship]: Hostile
[Rank]: Four-star military commander
[Level]: Level 100
[Strength]: 89 (top-tier second-rate military commander)
[Strategy]: 77
[Stamina]: 87
[Charm]: 34
[Equipment]: Wolf Tooth Knife (purple top-grade)
[Skill]: Blood Wolf Claw (Grade A)
[Talent]: Greedy Wolf (blue) (Increases own all attributes by 10% when fighting side by side with Li Jue)
...
Guo Si’s strength is not weak, but compared to himself, there is still a gap.
Long Chen’s current strength value is close to 90, making him a genuine first-rate military commander. Although he is at the bottom among first-rate military commanders, he is still much stronger than second-rate military commanders.
However, in terms of stamina value, Guo Si’s health and defense are obviously several steps higher than Long Chen’s.
But so what!
"E Lai, Zhongkang! Attack, as usual!" Long Chen coldly ordered.
Dian Wei and Xu Chu instantly understood, each wielding their weapons and charging forward.
The air solidified as a result.
Dian Wei first pulled out several small iron javelins from his waist, throwing them like hidden weapons.
*Whizz!*
In the blink of an eye, they were already close to Guo Si.
His face filled with terror, Guo Si hastily used his bodyguards to shield himself, then leaned forward on his horse and fled into the distance.
"Thunder Punishment!"
A bolt of thunder tore through the sky, accurately striking above Guo Si’s head.
This Thunder Punishment only caused minor injuries to Guo Si, but Long Chen’s lips curled up.
Guo Si chuckled and cursed, "I thought you were stronger! But you’re just so-so."
However, the next moment, he was shocked.
"Oh fuck!
Why am I moving slowly, and why do I feel a numb sensation inside? It’s like my body isn’t my own."
"Now’s the time!" Long Chen shouted.
Thunder Punishment inherently had a paralyzing effect, but for someone with a stamina value as high as 87 like Guo Si, it wouldn’t hold for long.
But in a battle between experts, victory often hinges on a split-second decision.
Xu Chu’s purple-golden large cleaver crashed down suddenly, and a large chunk of Guo Si’s health was cleaved away.
Dian Wei surged forward, the ferocious shadow behind him extending sharp claws that fiercely scraped a piece of flesh from Guo Si.
Seeing Guo Si’s health drop dangerously low.
Long Chen saw the fully leveled Guo Si as if he had found a treasure trove of experience!
He waved his long spear and used a move [Thunderfall. Thunder Spear].
Seeing this, Guo Si knew he had to fight to the death, otherwise it would be the end for him, so he swung his Wolf Tooth Blade.
"Blood Wolf Claw!"
A wolf howl echoed across the battlefield, like the wolf king among thousands of wolves.
The blades clashed with lightning speed.
With several loud bangs, the Thunder Spear eventually gained the upper hand!
Flying up to him, it pierced through Guo Si’s chest, and Guo Si died directly under the horse.
"Ding! Congratulations on killing the fierce general Guo Si from the Western Liang, experience points + ..."
"Ding! Congratulations on leveling up by 1 level, current level is 88." freēwēbnovel.com
As the level increases, more experience is required for subsequent levels, so although he only leveled up once, Long Chen still felt it was quite good.
After all, Guo Si was just a top-tier second-rate general.
After Guo Si’s death, Li Jue, who was far away, suddenly felt tightness in his chest and noticed the distant fire of war.
He couldn’t help but worry about Guo Si’s life.
Hastily activating [Wolf Smoke], disturbing the sight of Lu Bu’s army, he temporarily withdrew his troops.
Lu Bu cursed in anger but had no choice but to return to camp, preparing to confront Guo Si’s scattered army.
Yet he found that Guo Si’s army had already been routed and was fleeing in all directions.
For a moment, a hint of joy appeared on his brow.
Upon inquiry, he learned that it was General Long Chen, the General Who Pacifies the South, who had come to his aid.
Long Chen also helped him defeat Guo Si’s army and cut off Guo Si’s head!
Upon hearing this,
Lu Bu slapped his thigh and laughed heartily, "Brother Jueming, you’re truly excellent! Such loyalty!! You came specifically to assist me."
"I’ve been fighting against Li Jue and Guo Si for so long with my elite force of sixty thousand, yet I haven’t been able to defeat their army."
"But Brother Jueming, with just thirty thousand men, managed to defeat Guo Si’s army. Truly a hero of our time!!"
"I am convinced..."
Immediately, Lu Bu rode back to meet Long Chen.
Arriving at the camp, Long Chen had been waiting for him for a long time.
When the two met, they smiled at each other, then embraced and patted each other on the back.
Long Chen laughed, "Honor, how have you been these few days?"
Lu Bu looked somewhat embarrassed and sighed, "Ah, don’t mention it. Li Jue and Guo Si only know how to avoid me, but they won’t face me head-on. This battle... is truly frustrating!!!"
"But... I heard that Brother Jueming arrived and immediately made military exploits, killing Guo Si. Is this true?!"
A gleam of hope shone in Lu Bu’s eyes.
These days, Li Jue and Guo Si had been toying with him, and he wanted nothing more than to tear them apart and drink their blood.
Long Chen smiled and nodded, then waved to Xu Chu by his side.
Understanding his cue, Xu Chu took out a wooden box.
Lu Bu saw it and quickly opened it. Inside was the bloody head, none other than Guo Si’s!
"Hahaha!!! Guo Si, you mere fool, you have met your end today!!"
Realizing that it was Long Chen who had killed Guo Si, Lu Bu quickly clasped his hands in gratitude, "Many thanks to Brother Jueming for avenging me!"
As soon as he said this, the system voice in Long Chen’s mind rang out again.
"Ding! Detected that the five-star general Lu Bu’s favorability towards you has increased to 70."
Wow!!!
I didn’t expect Lu Bu’s favorability towards me to rise this much already!
Doesn’t this mean the chances of recruiting him are very high?!!
Lu Bu is a five-star general whom everyone envies!
He is recognized as the top general in the entire Huaxia server. If someone can recruit him, it’s like obtaining a powerful weapon!
What excites Long Chen the most is that by accepting Lu Bu alone, he could also gain the eight valiant generals under his command, including Gao Shun.
This is a deal where you get one and receive nine in total!
Although there are a few generals among them that Long Chen isn’t interested in, the thought of having Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, these two formidable generals, makes Long Chen’s heart beat faster.
Then,
he waved his hand and looked at Lu Bu with intense eyes, speaking seriously:
"Honor, would you be willing to join my army?"
As soon as these words were spoken, it felt as if time had stopped.
Lu Bu thought of Long Chen’s achievements over the years and felt deeply moved.
