Chapter 62: Death (2)

  "Impossible! How could it be!" Lei Bo covered his own neck, his pupils dilating in an expression of utter incredulity.

  "I'm not dead?!" Liu Mang didn't feel the chill of death, but instead heard Lei Bu's resentful voice. Liu Mang slowly sat up, looking at Lei Bu who was staring back at him with unblinking eyes, and couldn't help but bitterly laugh, "Is this really possible?!"

  The massive horns on the chest of the Aries Saint Cloak, above the neck, were mixed with fresh blood and a small piece of bone residue. Is this the Adam's apple?

  No, it wasn't Liu Mang who died, but Lei Bu. Just as Lei Bu's large knife was about to slash towards Liu Mang's neck, Liu Mang instinctively dodged out of the way. His speed couldn't compare to the swiftness of Lei Bu's knife, but his sacred garment had previously been a giant pair of bull horns.

  Lei Bo, who thought he had already won, was unfortunately hit on the neck by a huge horn when Liu Mang suddenly shook his head.

  "Is Second Master Wang dead? Is Second Master Wang dead?" Chen Lanjun panicked, seeing Lei Bu's fall near Liu Mang, several of Chen Lanjun's men began to retreat.

  "What? Lei Bu is dead?" Chen Lan was also in the army. Lei Bu was just the vanguard, and Chen Lan was the main force that followed, but before they even charged down the mountain, they received news of Lei Bu's death.

  "Is General Lü Bu's army still at the foot of the mountain?!" Chen Lan grabbed the knife in the soldier's hand who was delivering the message and asked urgently without letting go.

  "No, no! There is only one Liu Mang, a general under Lü Bu!" Chen Lanbing replied, his tone intimidated by the king's attitude.

  "Liu Meng? Who is this again?" Chen Lan knew that there was no one named Liu Meng among the original eight strong generals of Lü Bu's army.

  "It's that Golden Armor Man!"

  "Golden Armor?!" Chen Lan's eyebrows furrowed, he thought this Golden Armor was just a family member of Lü Bu's army, never expecting that Lü Bu would actually place a great general here, capable of killing Lei Bo!

  For Lei Bu, Chen Lan has feelings, but absolutely not that deep. What he values is Lei Bu's ability. Lei Bu is a good general and being able to kill him shows that the Golden Armor's strength is not weak.

  If Liu Mang knew Chen Lan's thoughts, he would really say a sentence, thank you for looking up!

  Lei Bu would have been able to defeat Liu Mang single-handedly, but unfortunately his overconfidence led to his downfall. On the battlefield, things can change in an instant. Guan Yu was able to kill Yan Liang and Wen Chou with one stroke not because they were weaker than him, but because they underestimated him.

  "General, mighty and powerful! General, mighty and powerful!" Liu Mang beheaded Lei Bu, and the morale of the Imperial Guards soared. If earlier Liu Mang could have been a bit happier, now he could only bitterly smile.

  "Brother, can't we keep a low profile?" Liu Mang had killed Lei Bu, but Lei Bu's personal soldiers were still alive. With their master dead, most of these bodyguards glared at Liu Mang with anger in their eyes. In this era, the bodyguards were like family generals, and their feelings for their commander were very deep.

  They had long been harboring a deep desire to kill Liu Mang, but they were afraid of his strength. Now that the cavalry corps had shouted, the eyes of these personal guards of Lei Bu had all turned red.

  "The great king has given the order, the whole army charges forward. Only by charging out can we survive. Whoever kills a man in golden armor will be rewarded with the third seat!" Lei Bu is dead, so Zhang Kai naturally takes his place. Chen Lan still wants Zhang Kai to lead his cavalry, but he can only offer him the third seat.

  "Rush, rush, rush!" Chen Lanjun's troops, who had been avoiding Liu Mao, closed in again. As the saying goes, "people die for wealth and birds die for food", the higher the reward, the more people are willing to risk their lives.

  "Avenge the two great kings!"

  "Avenge the two great kings and kill him!"

  "The position of the three kings is mine!" In front, they were still shouting to avenge Lei Bu, but in the back, it was directly for the reward. Two thousand five hundred Chen Lan army surged again and submerged the cavalry camp in the sea of people.

  "Kill, kill, kill!" Liu Mang didn't care about his physical and mental exhaustion, he could only fight for his life, Chen Lanjun's former subordinates were either veterans of Yuan Shu's army or long-time bandits, it can be said that their combat experience was absolutely not lacking.

  The cavalry regiment was initially able to rely on charging and defeating Chen Lan's army by surprise, but now that they are anxious, the numerically superior Chen Lan army has gained the upper hand.

  "Didn't die at the hands of Lei Bu, but now to die at the hands of these ordinary soldiers?! Liu Mang's long sword had already been broken, and the twenty or so cavalrymen protecting him were reduced to just three or four. The cavalry battalion was also engulfed by the sea of people, this battle could hardly be considered a complete defeat."

  "General!" The four remaining city management soldiers were all bloody, with both their own and the enemy's.

  "General, hurry up! We'll cover your retreat!" This was one of the four, Liu Mang still remembered that his name was Xu Cheng, and his voice was very young. Xu Cheng was much younger than Liu Mang, and today he was only seventeen years old. Seventeen years old in his previous life could be considered a youthful age!

  At this age, one should be carefree and sitting in class, dozing off during lessons!

  But now this era has already taken to the battlefield.

  "General!" Cheng Yu, who was commanding the vanguard of the city guards, also discovered Liu Mao's predicament. They were already surrounded, and Cheng Yu wanted to go and rescue him, but the Henan cavalry in front would never let him go. If he left, it could lead to the collapse and destruction of the city guards. But if they didn't save Liu Mao, he was sure to die!

  "How detestable!" Cheng Yu's teeth were almost ground into powder.

  "It's too late to escape!" Liu Mang looked around at the Chen Lan army that was about to surround him. Old man Chen Gong, you've really made me suffer! He had actually figured it out - Chen Gong's plan had been good from the start, using Liu Mang as a decoy to confuse Chen Lan's troops. Once the attack on Baozhong Mountain succeeded, Chen Lan would definitely try to break through in a panic, but with Lü Bu at the rear, those two wouldn't dare go that way, so they'd have no choice but to charge forward. With 1,000 city guards and logistics troops blocking the entrance, it shouldn't be too difficult. By then, Liu Mang would still get some credit for his efforts!

  But who would have thought that these two bandits, Chen Lan and Lei Bu, actually had cavalry, 2,000 iron riders, plus the bandits on the mountain, attacking from both sides, even if Lü Boss himself was here, it would be hard to turn the tide!

  Knowing that he couldn't escape, Liu Mang suddenly felt at ease. If death was inevitable, then so be it! At least he wouldn't have to worry about escaping anymore.

  With this idea, Liu Mang couldn't help but laugh, and he patted Xu Cheng's shoulder.

  "Xiao Xu Cheng, have you ever tasted a woman's charm in your life?"

  "Women?!" Xu Cheng was stunned, what is he thinking at a time like this.

  "Just by looking at you, I can tell you've never had it before!" Liu said with disdain, as if he had experienced it himself.

  "Actually, I'm telling you, women are made of water, that skin, that touch!" Liu Mang was also a big virgin, the feeling he could express was actually from the last time he accidentally touched Miss Lü's hand.

  "General, I...!" Xu Cheng didn't know what to say anymore, his face actually turned red, he didn't know if it was bloodstained or flushed with shame. It seemed that only Liu Mang could talk about women on the battlefield!

  "What's there to be shy about? You're a big man, after all! Actually, General, I've never had a taste of a woman either! It's so unfair, just dying like this, when I already have a fiancée, and I was going to ask for her hand in marriage! But..." Liu Mang shook his head as he stood up and took a large knife from the hand of the corpse beside him.

  "Does Xu Cheng still remember our City Management Army's slogan?"

  "Through thick and thin, in life and death, together we share wealth and honor!"

  "Alright, that's it! Sorry, Generals, I won't be able to give you wealth and glory, but today, I'll accompany you to death instead! Urban Management Army!"

  "Through life and death together, in poverty and wealth, till death do us part!"

  Five people launched another charge.
