Chapter 708 Wu She was surrounded, Li You rescued him!

At this moment, Wu She, who was halfway up the mountain, took a closer look and confirmed that the people coming were the Black Armored Army! Without any hesitation, he immediately led his soldiers and broke through the mountain without hesitation.

Wu She knew very well that the sudden appearance of the Black Armored Army would have a significant impact on the Wu Army. The easiest place to break through the original encirclement was naturally the side roads.

At this time, the leader of the Black Armor Army was Li You! It turned out that Gao Yao had given Li You a chance to lead the troops in person.

On this point, Li You and his father Li Si had completely different ideas. Li Si wanted to train Li You to be a civil official, but Li You was full of yearning for the path of a military general. This gave Li Si a headache. Although he did have other children, most of them were neither good at literature nor martial arts. Not to mention having status under Gao Yao's care, Li Si was thankful that he could live a stable life without causing trouble.

It was for this reason that Li You took the initiative to volunteer to come and reinforce Wu She.

Now, victory and military merit were within reach. Li You did not hesitate. Like an arrow shot from a bow, he rushed to where Dou Yong was, shouting, "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The difference between the black armored cavalry and the ordinary cavalry was obvious at a glance. Their momentum was so majestic that it was like a tidal wave, which was daunting. Just these few simple words of "kill" contained endless murderous intent and might, enough to make any enemy dare not underestimate them.

Facing such a strong enemy, Dou Yong knew that his side was clearly at a disadvantage in terms of momentum. However, he had no choice. If he did not step forward and lead his cavalry to meet the enemy, the consequences would be disastrous.

Dou Yong made a prompt decision and immediately led thousands of cavalrymen to gallop out and confront the Black Armored Army head-on. He knew very well that if he did not stop them and let the Black Armored Army charge, even without considering casualties, the morale of his army would collapse instantly, and they would have no power to fight back and would only become sitting ducks.

"Ding, ding, ding, ding", the crisp sound of metal collision resounded throughout the battlefield, as if the knell of death was ringing.

Immediately afterwards, "Puff, puff...ah...ah", cries of pain came one after another. It was the sound of weapons piercing flesh, which was creepy.

The moment the two sides came into contact, the shouts of killing were deafening. The swords clashed, sparks flew, and the sound of metal colliding was endless. Dou Yong's face was extremely gloomy, his eyes widened, and his face was full of astonishment. Although he had repeatedly overestimated the strength of the black armored army, the scene before him was still beyond his imagination.

The fighting power of these black-armored soldiers is so strong! Although the weapon in Dou Yong's hand can be considered sharp, it seems a little powerless when facing the enemy's hard armor. Every time he attacks, it is like hitting a copper wall and iron wall, and it is difficult to break through the opponent's defense line.

The enemy's weapon cut through Dou Yong's armor as easily as cutting tofu. Dou Yong felt a chill running down his spine, and his heart was filled with fear and despair.

Dou Yong was like this, so naturally the others around him were not much better. The more than 5,000 cavalrymen should have had an absolute advantage, but at this moment they were beaten by the more than 1,000 black-armored soldiers without any chance to fight back. The gap in strength between the two sides was too great, and Dou Yong's bravery alone was obviously not enough to change the situation.

If the person here today was Xiang Yu, the result would probably be very different. Xiang Yu has a force value of 99, which is the peak of force value! Such a powerful strength is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary generals.

In comparison, although Dou Yong was also a general, his strength was obviously far behind Xiang Yu. As soon as the two sides clashed, with just one charge, the 1,000 cavalry led by Dou Yong suffered heavy losses, with a loss of more than 70%! There were only a mere 300 cavalrymen left with Dou Yong, and many of them were seriously injured.

Even Dou Yong himself, because he led the troops and fought bravely, had seven or eight wounds on his body. These wounds not only caused him unbearable pain, but also greatly reduced his combat effectiveness.

However, Dou Yong's selfless act of blocking the charge did not buy much time for the rest of the Wu army. The black-armored cavalry was like a black whirlwind, and then they rushed towards the Wu army that had not yet fully assembled, like a hungry tiger pouncing on its food.

This sudden attack was a devastating blow to the Wu army! The confrontation between infantry and cavalry was already at a disadvantage, not to mention that the Wu army had neither the terrain advantage nor the preparation for troop formations. Facing such an elite black-armored army, they had no power to fight back. The defense line was instantly defeated, and the soldiers were terrified and fled in all directions.

At this moment, Wu Jun had already stopped caring about killing the enemy and making meritorious contributions. Saving his life was the top priority. When Dou Yong saw this scene, he could not suppress his anger. Although he was injured, he was still determined to fight back and fight the enemy to the death.

His personal soldiers knew how critical the situation was. They tried their best to stop Dou Yong, holding him tightly and resolutely not letting him act impulsively. Because everyone could see that the Wu army had been completely defeated, Dou Yong would be sending himself to death if he rushed forward at this moment.

Just as Dou Yong was preparing to retreat under the escort of his personal soldiers, the situation on the battlefield had changed significantly. At this time, the army led by Li You had already gained an absolute advantage, but he did not choose to pursue Wu's army relentlessly. Li You knew very well that they were now very close to Wu Rui's army, and any disturbance here could quickly reach Wu Rui's ears.

If they continued to pursue, they would most likely encounter Wu Rui's main force, and by then, they would face tremendous pressure and danger. Therefore, after completely defeating the Wu army, Li You made a prompt decision to withdraw his troops immediately to avoid a head-on confrontation with Wu Rui's army.

Li You quickly looked around, searching for Wu She. Finally, he spotted Wu She, who had just rushed out of the chaos. Li You walked towards Wu She without hesitation, his steps firm and powerful.

When Li You walked in front of Wu She, Wu She frowned slightly, as if he was a little unfamiliar with this general who suddenly appeared. He called out tentatively: "Are you Li You?"

Wu She had such a reaction because he and Li You were not familiar with each other. Wu She had always been the first to charge at the front, while Li You usually commanded from the rear. In addition, Li You's attendance at court meetings was very limited, which made Wu She know even less about him. Therefore, when Li You appeared in front of him, Wu She was a little confused about his identity.
