Chapter 310 There’s something wrong with Yi Xiaochuan!
Not long after, the imperial army came to a sudden halt about 250 steps away from the city wall. Seeing this, Gao Yao knew very well that the weapon advantage of the Southern Border Army had been noticed by the enemy. Even so, this did not mean that the weapons and equipment of the enemy had lost their effectiveness, but it was undeniable that the effect they could produce would be greatly reduced.
After all, if there were no epoch-making products such as hot weapons, and if we only relied on cold weapons to fight, even if there was a certain gap between the two sides, as long as the enemy was sufficiently alert, it would become extremely difficult to achieve a precise strike.
At this critical moment, several figures emerged from the direction led by the imperial army like arrows. Gao Yao, who was standing on the city wall, looked intently and his eyes were instantly attracted by one of them. That person was Yi Xiaochuan! Next to Yi Xiaochuan stood an old general with an unusually burly figure. Although Gao Yao had never met this general named Li Xin, he judged by intuition and the current situation that this person must be Li Xin.
At the same time, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan, who was in front of the army, naturally looked at Gao Yao, who was standing on the city wall. This was the first time that the two of them had truly faced each other, and this glance made the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan's heart tremble slightly.
You know, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan has gone through a long time, more than a thousand years, and in countless reincarnations, he has witnessed countless emperors. Because of this, he has trained a pair of extremely sharp eyes, which can easily see the unique momentum exuded by a person. Especially for the famous and well-known monarchs in the long river of history, each of them has a unique temperament, which is a powerful aura that is born with the rulers who are high above. Even after so many reincarnations, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan himself has never been able to possess such a remarkable momentum.
The mysterious Yi Xiaochuan has mastered the art of controlling people's hearts. After thousands of years of vicissitudes and changes in the world, he has long been familiar with human nature. For him, using fear is the most direct and effective means. Because the world will be ruthlessly reset every time, it is tantamount to wasting effort to cultivate feelings. In comparison, intimidation and coercion have undoubtedly become the most effective way to control others.
In this long reincarnation of thousands of years, Yi Xiaochuan had met Gao Yao countless times, but never had he seen Gao Yao exude such a majestic aura that only an emperor could possess. Yi Xiaochuan was convinced of this, and with his vision and experience, it was impossible for him to make a mistake in judgment. However, at this moment, Yi Xiaochuan finally realized why Gao Yao had undergone such a huge change.
You know, in this particular era, there are very few people with such momentum. Apart from the world-shaking Emperor Qin Shi Huang, Yi Xiaochuan has only sensed similar auras from three other people. They are Liu Bang, Xiang Yu and Han Xin. Of course, among these three, Han Xin's aura is relatively weaker. And these three people all have the hope of unifying the world to some extent.
"Gao Yao, Meng Yi is here, do you dare to go down to the city to fight!" Although he was already deeply shocked in his heart, at this moment, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan knew that he had to act strictly according to the established plan.
Especially when he witnessed Gao Yao's unique and aggressive aura, his desire to kill him became stronger. He rode forward a few steps without hesitation, then opened his throat and roared like a bell.
Almost at the same moment, Gao Yao, who was standing on the city wall, was startled when he heard the voice. This was because the shout from Yi Xiaochuan at this moment was full of energy, which was totally unlike the energy that a person who had lost his life could have.
This sudden situation did make Gao Yao a little doubtful, but after only a brief hesitation, he quickly made a decision - to go out of the city to fight. After all, in Gao Yao's opinion, Xiang Yu's strength was about 40% to 60%, and even if Yi Xiaochuan was powerful, what could he do? What's more, Gao Yao was definitely not as stupid as Long Ju, so how could he easily make a low-level mistake.
"Beat the drum for me!" Following Gao Yao's order, a burst of tight and rapid drum beats suddenly rang out from above the city wall, like bursts of thunder exploding in the air. At the same time, the heavy city gate began to slowly open, revealing a narrow gap, as if a giant beast was gradually opening its ferocious mouth.
"My lord, this mission is extremely dangerous. Please allow me to go on your behalf!" Just as Gao Yao was rubbing his hands and eager to go out himself, Erniu stood in front of him like an iron tower, his eyes firm and full of desire, and volunteered to go out to meet the enemy.
Gao Yao just waved his hand gently, and said in a steady but unquestionable tone: "Erniu, this is a personal grudge between me and others. The reasons are complicated and you don't know. This battle was caused by this old grudge, so I must not retreat at all. You just need to support me from behind!" After that, Gao Yao stared at the front with his eyes sharp, as if he saw the upcoming fierce battle through the city gate.
"Yes!" Seeing that Gao Yao had made up his mind, Erniu, who knew that he could not dissuade him, could only respond helplessly. Although he was still somewhat unwilling, he understood that since his lord was so insistent, there must be a reason for it. So, he followed Gao Yao closely and walked out of the city together, ready to meet and support him at any time.
After years of hard training and careful training, he has grown into a fierce general in the army. He is naturally gifted and has extraordinary strength. With the training day after day, his strength has been rising steadily and has already exceeded 80. However, even if he is so powerful, he is still slightly inferior to Yi Xiaochuan.
At this moment, Gao Yao chose to go to the battle in person for the same purpose as Long Ju did in the past. As the saying goes: "The first attack is strong, the second is weak, and the third is exhausted." He knew very well that if he could defeat Yi Xiaochuan in this battle, or even better, kill him, then the subsequent battles would become much easier.
Not long after, Gao Yao led more than 200 trusted soldiers to the outside of the city at lightning speed. At the same time, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan also led hundreds of elite cavalrymen, approaching Gao Yao's position like a storm. In just a moment, the two of them were less than 20 steps away from each other.
"Gao Yao, I never expected this. Your behavior is really surprising!" At this moment, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan couldn't suppress his inner surprise and couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Hearing this, Gao Yao had some doubts in his heart, but at this moment, when the two armies were facing each other, how could he show weakness? So, he responded with a calm face and a stern voice: "Xiaochuan, it's not that I haven't given you a chance. If you are willing to surrender to me now, I can not only cure your stubborn illness, but also ensure that you will have food and clothing for the rest of your life. Let's write off the previous things, how about it?"
"Haha, Gao Yao, ah Gao Yao, I have to say, you really surprise and unexpectedly make me feel. However, even so, today is the day of your death!" The mysterious Yi Xiaochuan sneered, and before he finished speaking, his figure had already rushed towards Gao Yao like an arrow.
This sudden change made Gao Yao slightly startled. For a moment, Gao Yao was unable to fully understand the deep meaning of the other party's words. Not only that, the Yi Xiaochuan in front of him gave him an extremely strange feeling, as if he had become a different person.
But at this moment, seeing Yi Xiaochuan rushing towards him with great momentum, Gao Yao knew that he could not afford to hesitate any longer. "Humph, if you want to take my life, then you have to see if you have the ability to do so! Prepare to die!" With a roar, Gao Yao drove the horse under his crotch without showing any weakness, waving the big knife in his hand, and rushed straight to where Yi Xiaochuan was.
Yi Xiaochuan was seen holding a gleaming spear in both hands, looking majestic and awe-inspiring; Gao Yao was also holding an extremely sharp broadsword, looking murderous. In an instant, the two collided like two meteors. In an instant, there was a crisp "clang" sound, resounding through the sky, and a series of dazzling sparks burst out from the intersection of the sword and the spear, like a gorgeous firework blooming in the night sky. This crisp collision sound was like a thunder, instantly spreading throughout the battlefield,
As the two weapons collided with each other, Gao Yao and the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan were both knocked back by the recoil force, and the horses under their crotch neighed and retreated several steps.
At this time, the two of them looked at each other with shocked expressions. The mysterious Yi Xiaochuan was shocked that Gao Yao's strength was so terrifying. Although he had heard Yi Xiaochuan mention it before, and he had also heard reports from his subordinates, in the eyes of the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan, Gao Yao's strength value was at most around 90 points, which was already good, while the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan's strength value had basically reached the full value of 100 points.
He even fought with Xiang Yu at his peak state for 300 rounds in a certain reincarnation, and finally defeated Xiang Yu. But now, he didn't gain any advantage at all from Gao Yao.
Gao Yao was also shocked at this time. Yi Xiaochuan's strength was indeed amazing, but there was a limit to how powerful he could be. Although it was only one move, the opponent's strength and speed were not inferior to Xiang Yu's. This was too outrageous!
