Chapter 373 Meng Zhang’s Plan
Zhuque was slightly taken aback. She turned to look at Su Ye, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.
Why is that?
Zhuque asked softly, her voice filled with confusion and curiosity.
"Ling Guang, are you aware that besides Meng Zhang and the Bull Demon King, there is another force within the Yellow Turban Army that should not be underestimated?"
Su Ye smiled slightly, took a deep breath, and slowly explained the reason.
Zhuque nodded, as one of the few people in the Cangzhou army who knew Meng Zhang's identity.
She had naturally heard of the existence of those behind-the-scenes manipulators of the Taiping Cult and the fact that they controlled a portion of the Yellow Turban elite army.
"These underhanded forces, in order to counterbalance Meng Zhang, specifically brought out someone with considerable strength and resources," Su Ye continued.
"This man's appearance has hindered Meng Zhang's plan to control the army. And we are here to give this powerful figure a surprise attack."
Upon hearing this, a glimmer of understanding flashed in Zhuque's eyes.
Having understood Su Ye's intention, he had been waiting for the perfect moment to unleash the full power of the Vermilion Bird's arrows.
"Meng Zhang and I have secretly discussed this. We need to work together from the inside and outside to deliver a fatal blow to this shield sent by those rats."
Su Ye's voice revealed a hint of malice, "Your arrow will be our surprise for him."
Su Ye had already secretly contacted Meng Zhang, who was part of the Yellow Turban Army, before entering Luzhou.
At this time, it was known that within the Yellow Turban Army, besides Meng Zhang and his subordinate Heavenly General Bull Demon King, there were nearly 200,000 elite Yellow Turban troops.
Another part of the Yellow Turban elite army was also under the control of the Taiping Cult's behind-the-scenes manipulators.
After the Bull Demon King under Meng Zhang's command began to show his talent, the behind-the-scenes manipulators worried that they would not be able to control Meng Zhang, so they cobbled together a powerful figure.
Although he is still somewhat inferior to the Bull Demon King in terms of strength, the gap is not that large.
Therefore, with this person's existence, his influence was enough to unite the elite army controlled by the Black Hand, becoming an insurmountable obstacle for Meng Zhang to control the entire army.
Meng Zhang's plan to gain control of the Yellow Turban army of hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers was thwarted.
Meanwhile, Meng Zhang discussed with Su Ye the idea of working together from the inside and outside.
Give this guy with deep roots a surprise and kill him completely!
Or at the very least, inflict a heavy blow to create an opportunity for Meng Zhang.
And Suquerade was the surprise Su Ye had prepared for this person with profound knowledge!
At this time, Meng Zhang, within the Yellow Turban army ranks, was also closely monitoring the battlefield situation.
At this moment, the battlefield was filled with smoke and the sounds of battle cries.
A group of generals from the Yellow Turban camp fought with Sun Wukong, surrounding him in the middle. Their qi surged and each clash of their weapons sparked dazzling flames.
Meanwhile, on another part of the battlefield, Zhang Yi, who had only recently reached the God of War level, faced Sun Liuer, who was gradually revealing his true combat power.
At this moment, Sun Liuer's light blue aura swirled around him like a blue dragon, making each of his attacks twice as powerful.
Zhang Yi was initially able to hold his own against Sun Liuer for a few moves, but as the battle progressed, he became increasingly bewildered.
"what!"
Zhang Yi roared and used all his strength to block Sun Liuer's powerful blow, while simultaneously swinging his sword with all his might.
He felt numbness in his arms, his chest heaving, and a trickle of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
He knew in his heart that if the fighting continued like this, he probably wouldn't be able to hold out for much longer.
Sun Liuer sneered, his figure darting like the wind, easily dodging Zhang Yi's attack, while simultaneously sweeping his staff at Zhang Yi's side.
"clang!"
The sound of metal clashing echoed across the battlefield. Zhang Yi reacted quickly and blocked the fatal blow with his longsword.
However, Sun Liuer's strength was too great. He directly slammed his longsword at Zhang Yi, causing Zhang Yi's arm to go numb from the impact.
Chapter 377, "Meng Zhang's Scheme," is now available! Read it now!
Moreover, Zhang Yi looked around and found that his teammates were almost all gone, and Sun Wukong was about to kill them all.
Sun Wukong, standing nearby, moved with impunity, his golden aura illuminating the entire battlefield.
I will slay gods and Buddhas alike!
Although some of these teammates were of divine general level, they were few and far between. Even if they were at the peak of divine general level, they would still die when facing Sun Wukong, who was a top-level celestial general.
Therefore, seeing that things were not going to work out, Zhang Yi had already decided to back down.
"what!"
In a moment of carelessness, Zhang Yi was struck hard by Sun Liuer's Iron Pole Soldier, and a mouthful of blood gushed out.
This made Zhang Yi even more convinced of one fact: he was no match for him, and if the fight continued, he feared his life would be in danger.
This general is just too damn weird.
No matter how one enhances their inner energy, whether by using inner energy or secret techniques.
The opponent was always slightly stronger than me, but not by much.
But Zhang Yi just couldn't figure out what the opponent's limit was!
That's awesome!
"withdraw!"
Zhang Yi gritted his teeth and endured a heavy blow from Sun Liuer. Using the force of the recoil, he gritted his teeth, endured the pain, and turned to run.
As he retreated, he shouted, "Retreat! Back to formation!"
The few remaining Yellow Turban generals under Sun Wukong's command also reacted and retreated while fighting, rushing towards the front of the Yellow Turban army.
Zhang Yi ran in the lead, not daring to stop for a moment, for fear of being overtaken by Sun Liuer behind him.
Behind him were Sun Liuer, who was hot on his heels, and the corpses of his comrades scattered all over the ground.
Zhang Yi raced across the battlefield, his silver armor gleaming coldly in the sunlight.
His heart was filled with anxiety and despair, but the instinct for survival drove him to keep accelerating.
Sun Liuer followed closely behind like a ghost, each swing of his staff creating a gust of wind.
"Trying to escape? Not so easy!"
Upon seeing this, Sun Liu'er sneered.
With a swift movement, he transformed into a streak of green and relentlessly pursued them.
The iron barb in his hand was like a streak of blue lightning, tearing through the sky and heading straight for Zhang Yi's back.
Zhang Yi felt a chill run down his spine as he sensed the sharp killing intent behind him.
He turned abruptly and swung his sword with all his might, trying to block the fatal blow.
"Clang!"
The two armies clashed, producing the sound of metal striking metal.
Zhang Yi felt a numbness in his hand, and the long sword almost slipped from his grasp.
But once again, he used that momentum to turn around, lie on his horse, and gallop away at breakneck speed.
"Where do you think you're going!"
Sun Liuer shouted loudly and suddenly accelerated, about to catch up with Zhang Yi.
Zhang Yi's heart tightened. He knew he couldn't stop, or he would surely die a horrible death.
"Get me there!"
He charged forward with all his might, shouting loudly to the troops from his own unit that had come to meet him.
In the distance, Zhang Yi's main force saw this scene, quickly assembled, and rushed towards Zhang Yi's direction.
The sounds of war drums and bugles resounded through the sky, giving Zhang Yi a brief respite.
Upon seeing this, Sun Liuer frowned.
Although he was brave and invincible, it was clearly unwise to fight alone against a well-trained army.
He stopped and stared coldly at Zhang Yi and his army in the distance.
"I'll let you off the hook today."
Sun Liuer snorted coldly and turned to leave.
The figure quickly disappeared before Zhang Yi's eyes, leaving only dust and blood on the ground.
Meanwhile, Zhang Yi finally escaped back to his own army.
He was panting heavily, glancing back in the direction Sun Liuer had gone, still shaken.
