Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 377 Mo Dao and Mingguang Armor
Zhang Nan had never seen such a long knife before, and its power was even more unheard of.

"Could it be that those people are holding precious swords in their hands? This is too... nonsense!"

A unit equipped with leather armor and shields is considered an elite soldier. This was the consensus of almost everyone in the late Han Dynasty.

But what Zhang Nan didn't know was that the group of people his soldiers were facing held the Mo Dao from the Tang Dynasty 400 years later.

The Mo Dao produced in the Tang Dynasty was extremely sharp, and it was used to chop shields and leather armor in the late Han Dynasty like cutting tofu.

Soon the fifty Jizhou swordsmen who charged first were all killed, but the Shadow Guard had no casualties.

Zhang Nan was angry this time he mobilized 100 people.

"Pikemen attack in formation, pierce them for me!"

Leather armor and shields can't stand cheap, so they have to use long weapons to show off.

The opponent's sword is powerful, but his pikemen can also kill.

If the spear formation of 100 people is well coordinated, it will not be difficult to kill a first-class general.

But just as the spear array approached, the group of passers-by took off their outer shirts in unison, and then a dazzling reflection came over them.

"Could this be the legendary... Mingguang Armor?!"

The reflected light made Zhang Nan unable to open his eyes. He had seen Yuan Xi's bright light armor before, but the ones on the people opposite were obviously a hundred times better than Yuan Xi's.

"How is this possible? Even Master Jizhou Mu doesn't have such an armor! Who is on the other side?"

Mingguang armor was still a very rare item in the late Han Dynasty. The workmanship, style, and defense capabilities were much weaker than those of the Tang Dynasty. But even so, Mingguang armor was only available to wealthy officials.

It is the limit for a general of a county to have a pair of Mingguang armor, but even such a precious Mingguang armor in the late Han Dynasty is still far behind that of the Tang Dynasty.

The reason is for him, in four to five hundred years, the craftsmanship of any item will be improved by leaps and bounds, which is an absolute advantage across time and space.

Zhang Nan was blinded by Mingguang Kailiang. He was very worried that his hundred spearmen might not be able to defeat the opponent, but once the spear formation was formed, it would be difficult to turn around.

Sure enough, as soon as they fought, the spear seemed to have pierced a hard rock. It only sizzled there but couldn't penetrate half of it.

Zhang Nan's subordinates had never seen such a powerful armor, and they were all stunned on the spot.

And with the protection of the bright light armor, the dozens of Shadow Guard members don't have to worry about being injured at all, they only need to concentrate on killing the enemy with the Mo knife.

When the knife fell, the head of the gun was cut off, and when the knife was struck, the head rolled to the ground.

In just two or three rounds, the gun formation composed of 100 people was completely disintegrated. The Shadow Guard was ordered to leave no one alive, and before the opponent could flee, he swarmed up and chopped the remaining people into mud.

Originally he boasted that a cup of tea could defeat the enemy, but now he was killed by the opponent without leaving any behind. This made Zhang Nan terrified and regretful.

"I knew I shouldn't have lent such soldiers to the Zhen family."

Zhang Nan began to feel a little confused, just when he was considering whether to escape to Hejian or retreat to Wuji County, he happened to see Liu Yu beside him making strange gestures towards the distance.

"what are you doing?"

Zhang Nan has also been on the battlefield for a long time and found out that something was wrong.

Liu Yu said with a smile: "Your subordinates are exhausted, and it's time to call my people to reap the victory."

After Liu Yu finished speaking, more than 50 members of the Shadow Guard rushed out from the secret place. These people were all dressed in bright light armor, and they also held that kind of weird long knife in their hands.

The two sides joined together, and a hundred shadow guards quickly formed an encirclement circle.

"Who the hell are you, give me your life!"

At this moment, Zhang Nan couldn't see through Liu Yu's relationship with the gang blocking the way, he would be a fool.

It's just that the weapons and equipment of the group blocking the way are too shocking, and it will be difficult to escape if they are surrounded by them.

Zhang Nan felt that it would be easier to deal with Liu Yu alone, as long as he was captured first, at least he could save his life without any worries.

Just wishful thinking is not enough, you must have enough hard power to really turn things around.

Zhang Nan's three-legged cat's kung fu was not enough at all, and Liu Yu knocked him off his horse with a counterattack just as he shot the spear in his hand.

In the next moment, Zhang Xiu, who was in charge of protecting the carriage of the Zhen family, came over.

"Dare to be rude to my lord, die!"

Only one shot pierced Zhang Nan's back heart.

"You... you, who the hell... are you?"

"This is my lord, the king of Zhongshan, Liu Yu!"

Zhang Nan was breathing heavily, but when he heard Liu Yu's name, he was so scared that he died on the spot.

The overall situation was settled, and the dozen or so Yuan soldiers who fled were all shot to death by archers not far away.

Zhen Luo no longer had to worry about being taken to Hejian. Under Liu Yu's arrangement, Zhang Xiu escorted the carriage to Anxiang to settle down first.

The den of thieves in Anxiang had been occupied and incorporated by Xu He's people, and with the addition of people from Fenglin Mountain, the number increased to five or six hundred.

Now that Zhen Luo has settled down, it's time to go to Zhending County to rescue Dong Bai.

…………

When Zhang Nan borrowed troops, he publicly announced that the [-] soldiers would obey Zhen Yan's order, which made the Patriarch of the Zhen family who had never been a general excited for a while.

On this day, he and the school lieutenant Wei Feng led the troops to Zhending County for rescue. Halfway through the journey, the soldiers cried out that they were tired and wanted to rest.

Zhen Yan didn't have any experience in commanding troops, so she called Wei Feng to discuss.

"It will only take half a day to go to Zhending. If the soldiers make such a fuss, I'm afraid it will affect the rescue plan."

Zhao Yu was determined to return first. Before leaving, Liu Yu made an agreement with her that he would attack the Heishan bandits inside and outside tonight. If Zhen Yan couldn't lead the troops in place, he would kill his teammates.

Wei Feng scratched his head and feigned embarrassment, "Morale is low, if you don't get enough rest, I'm afraid it will cause a mutiny!"

"Ah mutiny, it's not enough!" Zhen Yan panicked when she heard this, and hurriedly ordered the whole army to rest.

Just this rest, the soldiers never wanted to leave again.

An hour passed, and Zhen Yan and the others were very impatient. If they didn't leave, the plan agreed with Zhao Yu would be completely ruined.

Zhen Yan couldn't command the army, so he had to ask the school captain Wei Feng again for help.

In fact, Wei Feng was the mastermind behind this military disturbance, and the purpose was naturally to knock the Zhen family off.

"The Patriarch of the Zhen family doesn't know something. We are soldiers from Hejian County. We have crossed the border when we came to Zhongshan County. Now we are going to Changshan County to hunt for thieves. This victory is useless. Not only is General Zhang Nan angry, but Changshan I'm afraid the prefect will also punish us for the crime of crossing the border! That's why the soldiers are angry and unwilling to rescue us."

"Then... Captain Wei said, what should I do?"

Wei Feng chuckled, showing his complacency.

"Under a great reward, there must be a brave man. If the Zhen family is willing to offer some rewards..."

Before Wei Feng finished speaking, he heard a sound of horseshoes galloping towards him.

The two took a closer look, and it turned out that Liu Yu had arrived with two hundred shadow guards.
