Xu Huang immediately set up a simple altar according to the contents of the scroll, and pledged poverty to the Great Sage Master with her soul as a bond. Suddenly, a barely visible golden halo flickered around Xu Huang's body, adding a touch of divine glory to her body cursed by magic. When the army was about to arrive at the Linfen battlefield, Xu Huang had been transformed after half a month of training by Liu Zhuang. Although her beautiful face looked serious and her clothes were old-fashioned and conservative, after she took off her armor, her slender body was unusually plump, as graceful and attractive as a ripe peach. Her proud big breasts almost broke through the obstruction of her long gown and were about to burst out from the lapels. Her slender waist, which could be held in one hand, and her two round and plump buttocks swayed in the air in seductive curves. This tall and beautiful body now grows pieces of gorgeous blue-purple dragon scales due to the professional ability of [Dragon Vein Warlock]. These colorful dragon scales are mostly distributed on the arms, thighs, back of the body, and both sides of the cheeks, making the old-fashioned and serious face even more beautiful and colorful. It's a pity that Xu Huang does not like to smile, otherwise he would look better. Not only that, an extremely thick and slender blue-scaled dragon tail also stretched out from her plump peach-like buttocks, which was two meters long, as thick as her waist and as long as her height. The blue-purple scales, matched with the apricot-yellow fur, looked extremely domineering and beautiful. The size of this dragon tail was almost the same as Xu Huang himself. The bony spike at the tip of the tail grew into a ferocious double-edged battle axe, adding this giant axe tail to Xu Huang's natural weapon. During combat exercises, he swung the giant axe at the dragon's tail with both hands, which was extremely terrifying. This giant axe dragon's tail bestowed by the Dragon Vein Warlock profession made Xu Huang's combat even more powerful! Not only that, her whole body was emitting a faint golden halo, which was the light of God after she made the [Pledge of Poverty], allowing Xu Huang, who had been isolated from magic all his life, to become even more powerful. 【Xu Huang】(Dragon) Level 12 (2nd level warrior + 3rd level barbarian (lion totem) + 7th level dragon vein warlock) Health 184 Mana 0

Liu Zhuang looked at Xu Huang with satisfaction. She had been transformed from an uncut piece of jade into an extremely stunning and gorgeous work of art by his own hands. This was just the surface data. Once she activated her rage, her strength would soar to 34! Although not as good as Lu Bu, Lu Bu's dragon blood talent triple rage is very scary after all, and with the stacking of magic items and spells, Xu Huang, without the assistance of magic, uses [Dragon Vein Warlock], [Poverty Oath], and [Whirlwind Fury] to reach a power of 34, which is already quite scary. In addition, his dragon blood talent makes all magic ineffective as long as he gets close, and he is a natural nemesis of spellcasters. Apart from the gifted Lu Bu and Tuoba Yun who can transform into a hybrid beast, no one in his camp dares to say that they can definitely win against Xu Huang. Jia Xu, Guo Huai and others who made a living by magic were in great pain seeing Xu Huang, and they were suppressed and couldn't fight at all. Now, with the career and expertise specially chosen for her, she has been completely transformed and is very different from the night we met in Linfen. At this moment, Liu Zhuang's army was approaching Fenyang, preparing for a decisive battle with King Xiutu. While preserving his strength and avoiding battle, Ding Yuan reluctantly acted like a human being and sent Zhang Yang, the captain of the Beirong Camp, to station in Shangdang to attack Jingxing and engage in a fierce battle with the Black Mountain Army that was wreaking havoc in Shangdang and Taiyuan. This helped Liu Zhuang resolve the threat from the east and prevented Liu Zhuang from having to divide his troops to fight the Black Mountain bandits when he had a decisive battle with King Xiutu. At the same time, Yanmen prefect Guo Wei also withdrew his troops amid cursing, and almost abandoned all the farmland and grasslands on the north bank of Luoshui. He withdrew all the private troops of the aristocratic families to the two counties of Yinguan and Loufan to passively defend against the Xianbei troops. Only the defense line here had not collapsed, while other places had already been completely rotten. Ding Yuan and Zhang Yang barely helped him to hold back the Black Mountain Army. His father-in-law, Guo Wei, although lost a large area of Yanmen County after the loss of Ding Yuan's army, at least he managed to defend the most core area. In a short period of time, the Xianbei troops would not be able to directly invade the central part of Bingzhou along the Fen River. The history of Bingzhou's collapse and disintegration overnight has changed under his influence. Now Bingzhou can still hold on with the joint assistance of three forces. As long as he can defeat the retired butcher king here, everything in Bingzhou can be saved! The author says: Author's words: 2650 monthly tickets plus more~ Chapter 172: Orc Rage
March 188, the fifth year of Zhongping (March 3, 10 AD) Liu Zhuang led his army to Fenyang, where the city had been surrounded by a large army led by King Xiutu. In a sense, the Han emperor's decentralization of military and financial power saved the city. Fenyang was located in the inland transportation hub. It was originally undefended and had no garrison at all. But now the county magistrate and several family slaves and their troops had withstood the fierce attack of King Xiu Tu and were extremely brave and skilled in fighting. These were the Xiongnu orcs! If the city fell, all my belongings would be gone! Seeing that Fenyang had been unsuccessful for a long time, King Xiu Tu was also very surprised that a Han army of 10,000 people was coming to help from the east. Huh? Ding Yuan only had five battalions of soldiers, two of whom were crippled by me and three by the Xianbei troops. Where did he get the extra troops to rescue Fenyang? What? The person who came was not Ding Yuan? It was the governor of Hedong? ? ? I didn't attack your Hedong area, why are you joining in the fun? Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou, has given up. No matter what, why don't you stay in Hedong? Don't be nosy! King Xiutu made quick arrangements, leaving half of the greenskins to continue the siege and maintain the siege of Fenyang. The other half of the greenskins deployed layers of defense against Liu Zhuang's reinforcements. They urgently cut down a large area of forest and built simple, rough but effective camps and deer horns to defend themselves. At the same time, several orc boys dressed in formal Hanfu, holding flags and staffs, went to Liuzhuang to try to delay time. "My Lord, you are the governor of Hedong, and you have the mountains and rivers of Taihang and Luliang, and the rich valleys of Fenshui and Laishui. I wonder if you can just live your life in Anyi? Why are you getting involved in this mess? We are not attacking your Hedong County! Fenyang is not your defense zone!" The orc boy said in a persuasive tone, using very polite words. "I think the Lord's army has only over 10,000 soldiers, while our King Xiu Tu's men number over 20,000! That's twice as many as the Lord's. If we lose, the wealth that the Lord has accumulated over the years will be gone. Even if you are wise and brave and defeat our king, what can you get? The position of Bingzhou governor was given to Ding Yuan by the court, not to you! What you are saving now is Ding Yuan's private property!" The orc boy said pointedly. "Moreover, as far as I know, the rewards from the court have long been unavailable. If you lose here, you will lose everything and may even be killed on the spot like Xihe Governor Xing Ji and Bingzhou Governor Zhang Yi. There is no benefit in winning here. Instead, you will be helping Ding Yuan clean up his mess. This is a matter that has no benefit but only harms. I hope you will be careful and take it seriously. If you withdraw now, King Xiu Tu is willing to give you 10,000 cattle and sheep, and live in harmony forever." "Fork out." Liu Zhuang waved his hand and was too lazy to even argue with these orc envoys. When two armies were fighting, they could not kill the envoys, but it was okay to order his soldiers to spear him out. After governing Hedong in an orderly manner, Liu Zhuang already had a rough strategic goal in mind: the Han emperor only had a few years left to live, Dong Zhuo had entered Luoyang, and the eighteen princes were about to launch an anti-Dong movement. After the world is in chaos, he will use Hedong as the center, seize Taiyuan in the north, and take Anyi and Jinyang, the old capitals and bases of the two hegemons Zhao and Wei during the Warring States Period, under his command as the starting point of his struggle for hegemony. By that time, he would have been protected by the dangerous Yanmen Pass in the north, the Jingxing Mountain Pass in the east, and the Yellow River separating him from the west and south. His jurisdiction would be rich in mines and fertile farmland, so he might be able to compete with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao for the world. However, there is a prerequisite for realizing this strategy: Bingzhou cannot be too chaotic, and one must have a safe and stable Bingzhou as a rear base. Whether it was the Xiutu King in the west, the Xianbei troops in the north, or the Black Mountain bandits in the east, they all seriously interfered with their strategic deployment. They all wanted to take Bingzhou for themselves, especially the Xiutu King! You are the most destructive! Therefore, this battle must be fought both publicly and privately. After failing to persuade him to surrender, King Xiu Tu had no choice but to fight against this unexpected reinforcement. He had no idea about Liu Zhuang's strength, but he knew that Yuwen Xianbei had rushed to Hedong once two years ago, and then surrendered to the Han Dynasty with his entire clan. He thought that the mansion master must be quite capable, so he could not underestimate the enemy. Therefore, he immediately sent out the Han Weapon Camp, using 2,500 of the most corrupted rebellious boys from the Han Dynasty as the first line of defense. These 2,500 Xiongnu heavy infantry were not only one of King Xutu's most elite armed forces, but also specialized in defense and restraining cavalry. Each boy carried three additional sharpened wooden sticks, two meters long and as thick as a child's arm. The wooden spears were tied and fixed with hemp ropes, and a distance of more than ten centimeters was left between each spear. When they start to form their battle formation, they can directly insert this thing into the ground at a 45-degree elevation angle, instantly forming a small section of antlers, a chevaux de frise, specifically to restrain cavalry. Then all the infantry can hide behind this temporary chevaux de frise and use crossbows and longbows to fight against the cavalry. Just as the Han army learned all the tactics of the Xiongnu cavalry, the Xiongnu also learned all the infantry tactics of the Han people. After seeing this group of Xiongnu heavy infantry frantically deploying deer horns and chevaux de frise to restrict his cavalry's charge, Liu Zhuang immediately dispatched Xu Huang to lead a battalion of infantry under his command to launch a frontal attack, remove the deer horns, and create conditions for the cavalry charge.
Xu Huang didn't waste any words and charged forward with his 2,000 infantrymen. The first row of soldiers held up their shields to resist the rain of arrows from the Huns. The Han soldiers in the following rows also shot arrows with bows and crossbows to attack the Huns' heavy infantry hiding behind the antlers. Under the cover of various long-range weapons, the two battalions of infantry moved closer and closer in the flat river valley! Flags fluttered, drums roared, the first row of soldiers were wearing heavy armor, holding sharp weapons, with determined eyes and great momentum. As the distance shortened, the drums of both sides became louder and louder, as if to break the sky, and the soldiers' war cries and roars merged into one, turning into a turbulent torrent! When the distance between the two sides was less than ten meters, the sword and shield soldiers in the first row threw their javelins one after another. In a short time, countless shields were pierced by javelins, countless soldiers were killed by spears, and countless soldiers roared and charged in the dense rain of arrows! Before the two sides engaged in battle, the already broken formations collided heavily like two metal torrents. After dismantling the orcs' chevaux de frise and antlers, countless soldiers immediately brandished their sharp swords and fought the enemy fearlessly! "clang!!!" Accompanied by flying sparks, an orc boy and a Han soldier swung their ring-handled swords and slashed at each other fiercely. Even if they had not evolved into dragons, ordinary Han people were dragon vein creatures with dragon blood, and their strength was not inferior to that of the orcs. The dragon and the beast fought bloody battles in the front, and neither hurt the other in the slightest. At this moment, a long halberd with a red ribbon was raised high from behind the Han army, and the halberd's small branch was used to hit the orc's head heavily! The blow made his head explode like a ripe watermelon! Blood and brain matter splattered everywhere. "Support the Han Dynasty!" The second row of Han soldiers holding halberds raised their halberds stained with blood and flesh high up, ready to smash another orc's head. At this moment, a spear pierced through the orc's heart and knocked him to the ground. The deaths of the two front-row soldiers led to the halberd soldiers in the second row of the Han army directly confronting the spearmen in the third row of the orcs. Both of them were wounded by crossbow arrows, but not killed. Their spears and halberds collided, and the two men fought evenly. They also had an extra-long spear behind them to assist in the battle. The four weapons were like dragons emerging from a cave, stabbing, flying, spinning, and strangling in the air. It was an extremely exciting fight. After a few rounds, the Han soldier clamped the orc's spear under his armpit, and the orc used his iron claws to hold the blade of the halberd tightly. Both sides gave up their long weapons at almost the same time. The Han soldier drew the ring-headed sword from his waist, and the orc waved the giant iron claw in his left hand. With the assistance of the spearmen behind him, they continued to fight in the most dangerous and deadly close combat! The claws and knives collided in the air with a series of bright sparks, and bursts of shrill and piercing clanging sounds broke out. For a moment, blood splattered, corpses were everywhere, and the sound of war drums, shouts, and clanging sounds intertwined together, forming an echo of hell. "WAAAGH!!!" Seeing that these Han people had some skills, the orc boys roared to the sky, their eyes burning with dark green scorching flames. Then the scorching flames flowed out from his pupils, rushing and spreading to their limbs and even the weapons in their hands, making their bodies wrapped in dark green flames, like fire men. Their strength increased greatly, and these rebellious boys covered in flames gained an overwhelming advantage on the battlefield, and even pushed the Han army back for a time! This is the racial talent of the orcs. It is said that the great "WAAAGH!!!" connects the minds of all orcs, so that when they fight to the most crazy and happy, all orcs' emotions will synchronously enter a violent state also called "WAAAGH!!!", which greatly increases their strength and physique. The specific values vary from person to person, and can't be said to be 80% the same as the violent ability of the barbarians, but it can be said to be exactly the same. According to ancient documents, the "Barbarian" profession that allowed Lü Bu and Xu Huang to possess the same violent power was created by King Wuling of Zhao in imitation of the orcs' "WAAAGH!!!" It allowed the people of Zhao at that time to possess the same violent power as the orcs, thereby sweeping across Yinshan Mountain and dominating the Three Jins. If the Han people want to learn violence, they have to study hard and even take up precious professional levels. As for the orcs, rage is an innate talent. They don't need to learn the Barbarian profession. Even if you are a level 20 Confucian scholar who has never learned how to use rage in your life, you can still use rage, advanced rage, and ultimate rage. This is a matter of both advantages and disadvantages. After all, the Han people's violence is learned in real combat, and it is a fighting skill that ignites emotions. The orcs' violence is more like an innate supernatural magic. Therefore, when Xu Huang entered the battlefield, the battlefield exploded and spread into a sea of green fire. Suddenly, a vacuum zone with a radius of twelve meters appeared. The green-skinned orcs near Xu Huang were silenced one after another. The crazy green flames flowing from their seven orifices were extinguished one after another. In the oppressive anti-magic field, they returned to a terrifying nothingness. The deafening WAAAGH!!! In front of Xu Huang, they all returned to an extremely cold silence. Chapter 173: Driving straight into the enemy "What's going on? My WAAAGH!!! is ineffective?" "Brother Kong's blessing is gone? You guys too?" "Eh? Look at everyone else, they're all fine! Only our part is ineffective?!" The rebellious boys who suddenly lost the protection of the power of WAAAGH became morale-shattered and became a mess. But when they looked back, they saw that the other orcs a few meters away were fine and were not affected at all. Only the orc squad near Xu Huang had lost their protection. It was Xu Huang's first time fighting against orcs, and she was rather confused by the situation. However, she immediately seized the opportunity and rushed to the front with her elite troops. With one axe, she smashed the wooden stakes blocking the road, and then with an upward slash, she knocked an orc boy flying high into the sky along with broken teeth, jaw, and blood. The huge axe was raised high in the sky, and the blood splashed on it was scarleter than the sun. "call--"
After Xu Huang's upward strike, he used the force to block a downward strike. With a flash of cold light, the orc boy's shield, left arm, and body were all cut in half by the powerful axe. The broken limbs and flesh were instantly scattered all over the ground, and the wound was splashed with blood like a fountain. "All troops! Charge with me!" Xu Huang roared and stepped forward, his serious and beautiful face completely stained red with blood. With a sweep of the giant axe, he chopped two more orcs in half! Their broken upper bodies fell to the ground, their intestines and internal organs scattered all over the ground. They were not dead after being cut in half, and they collapsed on the ground wailing, and were eventually stabbed and pierced by countless spears. Under the dual power of Dragon Vein Warlock and Poverty Oath, ordinary orcs were no match for Xu Huang. Seeing that the situation was not good, an orc shaman's eyes burst out with beams of hot and terrifying psychic lightning, and a deafening thunder roar sounded in the air. The orc shaman knelt on the ground devoutly, raised his hands high, and looked up to the sky and shouted WAAAGH! For a moment, the sky was filled with clouds, and countless violent dark green energies tore through the clouds, turning into a dark green giant foot wearing Han clogs that fell from the sky, pressing down on Xu Huang's head like a mountain! That thing was so huge that it blocked out the sun. The wind pressure from the falling giant foot alone was enough to make people lose their balance and fall to the ground. The soldier next to Xu Huang found himself shrouded in a shadow that had no end in sight. He looked up in horror and found that he could not even see the sky, but only the giant dark green giant foot. Xu Huang was not in a hurry. She continued to swing her battle axe and killed the fourth orc boy. When Kong Ge's big feet fell from the sky and were 12 meters away from her head, they suddenly melted instantly like snow under the sun, turning into a monotonous nothingness. The huge energy collection disappeared in an instant, as if nothing had happened. The orc shaman scratched his head in confusion, unable to comprehend what was happening, and chanted again, using the first-level Mengge Old Fist. The violent and primitive WAAAGH energy condensed into a giant fist the size of a house in the air, and slammed towards Xu Huang like a meteor. The shrieking sound of the dark green energy tearing through the air was creepy, and then it also turned into nothingness, and disappeared completely before it got within ten meters of Xu Huang. "Get out of the way, I'll deal with her!" Seeing that her spiritual power was ineffective, a two-meter-six-meter-tall orc roared and blocked Xu Huang's way, standing in front of her like a mountain. Xu Huang was not in a hurry. She exerted force with her two slender and round thighs and jumped high into the air. Not only that, her tall and beautiful body spun 360 degrees in the air like a windmill, and the two-meter-long dragon tail swung out with the help of centrifugal force and smashed hard on the big man's head! "clang!!!" The big orc raised his war hammer high, barely blocking Xu Huang's tail axe attack, but his balance was also destroyed by the powerful blow. He staggered back a step, and his parrying posture was also broken. Xu Huang took this opportunity to swing the axe in his hand, and the next moment the tail axe launched a jump chop, he took advantage of the momentum of falling and spinning in mid-air to launch a second wolf-slash jump chop with the axe in his hand! This time, the big orc was no longer able to resist. He was hit in the chest by an axe. Four or five ribs and the internal organs protected by the ribs were broken into pieces. He fell to the ground with Xu Huang, and blood and dust splattered all over the sky. After Xu Huang regained his balance, he quickly climbed up from the big orc's chest, took advantage of the situation to pull out the bloody giant axe, and chopped it towards his neck. The first blow of the axe broke both of his arms, and blood spurted out from the two broken arms like a fountain. The second axe shattered blood vessels, and the ruptured trachea made a creepy whistling sound amid the orc's breathing. The bloody and even bleeding neck made it even more terrifying. The third axe shattered the bones. Xu Huang used three axes to finally chop off the huge head of the orc from the cervical vertebrae! Xu Huang silently jumped off the big guy's body and handed the huge head to his flag bearer, asking him to hang the head on the big flag and continue to charge forward with him. His silent and terrifying style scared all the greenskins. Who is this person? Not only is she extremely powerful, she is not afraid of shaman magic, and wherever she passes, our WAAAGH!!! The energy is completely ineffective, there is no way to fight! In panic, these rebellious boys quickly came up with a solution: one group of people holding shields and spears took advantage of their numbers to fight Xu Huang, while more people pulled out javelins and crossbows, preparing to use long-range physical attacks to snipe the Sima of the other tribe who was charging in the front. Xu Huang saw through the orcs' deployment at a glance, pulled out the shield on his back, switched to shield axe form, and sacrificed his attack speed in exchange for extremely high defense and the ability to resist arrows, and moved forward while resisting the concentrated fire of the orc boys. No matter how powerful those javelins and crossbows were, they could not inflict a fatal blow to Xu Huang after penetrating extremely solid shields and armor. What's more, the beautiful body hidden under the armor is covered with a layer of gorgeous dragon scales. Although Xu Huang does not know any magic, her physical fitness is second only to Lu Bu, and her defensive ability is even slightly better. Although the attack speed of the two giant axes in her hands and tail is slightly slow, she has infinite power. Even a big orc would find it difficult to block the endless terrifying offensive of the two giant axes. The flesh has an overwhelming advantage, magic is ineffective against her, and she can even eliminate the orcs' WAAAGH!!! Energy... all these advantages allowed Xu Huang to kill countless heads in the close combat with the infantry, and blood flowed like a river. He led his personal soldiers straight into the enemy, demolished the defenses of three antler barricades in a row, broke down the infantry phalanx of three orcs, and led his personal soldiers to break through the rebellious boy's front line, cutting a huge flesh-and-blood gap in the middle of the long orcs' front line. On other fronts, these rebellious guys were suppressing the Han army, but Xu Huang was the only one who achieved an overwhelming victory. No orc could stop this god of death, and they could only watch her cut this long front line in half! Seeing that Xu Huang's attack was successful and the antlers were destroyed, thus winning an opportunity for the cavalry to attack, Liu Zhuang, riding on Tuoba Yun, immediately launched a charge with his own 2,000 personal soldiers. Along with Xu Huang's infantry, they madly rushed into the gap in the rebellious boys' front line, filling and stabilizing the flesh and blood rifts created by Xu Huang, cutting these orcs into two halves that could hardly take care of each other, and tried to attack directly from the gap to the back of the two halves of the orc infantry, encircling these rebellious boys and annihilating them. King Xiu Tu, who was supervising the battle in the rear, looked very pale. These 2,500 rebellious guys were his strongest infantry battalion, but after fighting for less than half an hour, the front line was penetrated from the front? He just wanted to test the strength of the Han army, thinking that he could delay the battle for a long time with the help of the deer horn fortifications and the Xiongnu heavy infantry. He didn't expect that the situation would collapse to this extent without any precautions. Whose general is that dragon lady with a tail as big as her body? She is so brave that she can make a cavalry charge with her infantry? At this moment, King Xiutu no longer cared about attacking the city. He immediately withdrew all the troops besieging Xiaquyang and personally led the cavalry to charge into the battle line to cover his own infantry's withdrawal from the battlefield to prevent them from being wiped out by Liu Zhuang here. Chapter 174: Thunder Feathered Guards
Seeing that King Xiutu's cavalry was charging towards them in a mighty force, if they stayed behind these rebellious guys, they might be caught in a desperate situation of being attacked from both sides, ending up in a four-layer pie, with Liu Zhuang and Xu Huang sandwiching these rebellious guys, and the rebellious guys and King Xiutu's team sandwiching Liu Zhuang. After thinking for half a second, Liu Zhuang immediately chose to proceed step by step, retreated temporarily, removed the encirclement, and let King Xiutu rescue the Xiongnu heavy infantry who were in desperate situation. However, during the time when King Xiutu was rescuing his own infantry, Liu Zhuang ordered Xu Huang to hold the front line in the center, and he led 2,000 cavalry to attack the left wing. Yuwen Tai and Gao Huan led 5,000 troops to encircle the right wing, strategically forming a larger encirclement of the entire Southern Xiongnu army. Liu Zhuang personally led his 2,000 personal soldiers, a mixture of his Thunder Warriors, Han Army Armored Cavalry, and Xianbei personal soldiers, to launch a surprise attack on King Xiutu's headquarters! "Roar!!!"
