Chapter 189 – Zhang Tong VS Huang Zhong

He fired the arrow, which traveled in a speed of 350 km/h, aiming at the head of his enemy general .

Tong, who was the target of the archer general, sensed the condensed killing intent locking onto him and a foreboding threat .

"[Time Stop]!"

Because Tong could not tell where the threat was from, he activated his [Time Stop] skill .

The world turned colorless once more, and Tong looked around for an anomaly that threatened him . The moment he looked toward his left, he saw an arrow, which was paused in mid-air, pointing straight at the location where his temple was before he used the skill .

"What!?"

It was a close call and the right call for activating his skill . Had Tong activated it slower for a second, his brain would have been pierced by the arrow .

Tong darted his eyes around at the source of the arrow, searching for the shooter .

It took Tong half a second to see the owner of the arrow . It was an archer in a unique armor set, signifying that he was an important person in the army . He was standing with an arrow shooting pose on the top of an archer tower a hundred meters away .

'A general? A commander?'

'It doesn't matter . Since you're aiming for my life, I'll take yours first!'

Tong aimed his gun at the archer general .

*Clank*

The pistol ran out of ammo .

'Bad luck . But I have plenty of time . '

<you have="" 7="" seconds="" remaining="">>

Tong reloaded his gun, loaded the chamber, and pointed at the shooter again .

*Clack*

The gun did not fire a bullet . It gave out a weird sound, but Tong knew about this phenomenon well .

'Gun jamming at this time!? Are you kidding me!?'

The bullet that Tong loaded stuck in the chamber . He took out the clip and held the gun slide with his left hand . Tong slapped the handle hard to move the slide and get rid of the stuck bullet in the chamber .

<you have="" 4="" seconds="" remaining="">>

The bullet still stuck and the gun slide had not moved a bit .

'Dammit! Move!'

Tong slapped the gun again with all his strength . The gun was unjammed . However, Tong exerted too much force . The gun slide broke and pieces of gun parts scattered into the air .

<you have="" 2="" seconds="" remaining="">>

In anger, Tong threw the broken gun away and pulled a new gun from his inventory .

<you have="" 1="" second="" remaining="">>

He loaded a new clip into the gun and aimed at the archer general again .

<the time="" will="" now="" resume="">>

Huang Zhong, style name Hansheng, was serving as Liu Biao Army's grand commander . He excelled in melee duel, archery, range warfare, and other tactics .

In the modern world historical records, Huang Zhong served Liu Biao from the very beginning of his career .

After Sun Jian's death and the Jing Province was entirely under control of Liu Biao, he was assigned to be a commander to protect Changsha Commandery with Liu Biao's nephew, Liu Pan from the remnants of the rebels . In 208, he was transferred from being a commander to a major-general under the governor of Changsha who was also a subordinate of Liu Biao, Han Xuan .

Huang Zhong surrendered to Liu Bei later on and became one of the five tiger generals under his new master . He had left a historical battle record as he defeated Cao Cao's forces at Mount Dingjun in Hanzhong District, which his army killed Xiahou Yuan in the battle .

Unlike the usual windfall where Tong stole talents from the warlords left and right, this legendary general appeared here as Tong's enemy .

After shooting his arrow, Huang Zhong saw something impossible .

Tong, who should have been killed by the arrow, blinked! The arrow missed its target while Tong reappeared again in the nearby location with the muzzle of the gun pointing at Huang Zhong .

The archer general sensed Tong's killing intent . Though he did not know what the thing in Tong's hand could do, he ducked, avoiding the muzzle trajectory .

*BANG*

The bullet had gone into the head of an archer behind Huang Zhong's back, ending his life on the spot .

The general looked back and saw what happened to his soldier . He had a chill running down his spine .

'That brat's reflex is on the elite general level! This is bad news!'

'The weapon in his hand is also scary! What the hell is that!?'

Huang Zhong swallowed his saliva, steeling and motivating himself into the battle . Even if he were scared of Tong, he would not give up with just simple intimidation .

"BRING IT!"

Huang Zhong roared . He took another arrow from his quiver and launched a super arrow . This arrow was still as fast as the previous arrow he shot at Tong at the speed of 350 km/h .

Tong also overclocked his brain to the limit . He saw the trajectory of the incoming arrow and forced his body to dodge .

Tong shifted his head to the left, and the first arrow went past the spot where his forehead was . Tong countered it with a bullet .

*BANG*

Though Huang Zhong could not see the bullet itself, he could predict the trajectory of Tong's secret weapon . He also tilted his head to the side, avoiding the killing bullet . At the same time, he nocked his great bow with another arrow and countered with his shot .

The similar thing happened again on the wall, Tong simply tiled his head to the side and shot back again .

Huang Zhong also swayed his body to dodge the muzzle point and continued shooting his arrows .

Each exchange from the two generals took only half a second . Both of them left after images as they dodged the projectiles .

The stalemate did not last long . Tong ran out of ammo in his clip first, while Huang Zhong had plenty of arrows in his quivers .

"I've got you now, brat!"

Seeing an opening, Huang Zhong nocked four arrows fired all of them at once . Three of them aimed at the locations which Tong used to move his body to while the last one targeted his vital spot .

"Hmm!"

Tong harrumphed as he did not see this as a threat . He bent crouched down and took cover behind the battlement in front of him while his hands were busy reloading his gun .

The four arrows went overhead, missing their target .

While both of them were busy dueling using their projectiles, an Imperial soldier rushed at Tong . The subordinate soldiers of Tong did not disappoint him, spears and arrows killed the incoming soldier before he could reach their young general .

They also noticed the difficult fight that Tong had, so the lieutenants took over Tong's role as a spearhead and charged at the nearby enemies, leaving Tong behind so that he could get rid of the enemy archer general .

"[Create Weapon], Glock pistol!"

Another gun appeared in Tong's hand . He loaded another clip into it . Tong exerted his sense beyond his limit . A drop of blood dripped down from his nose again . His body sprang upward to the standing position again with two guns pointing at Huang Zhong .

The general saw another gun and panicked . Dodging one gun was already tricky enough, dealing with both of them at the same time was a suicide .

This time, Huang Zhong crouched down to get a cover from the wooden tower battlements .

*BANG* *BANG*

*BANG* *BANG*

Several bullets chased after Huang Zhong . Two of them penetrated to the wooden barrier and ricocheted his iron armor, but one of them left a trail of missing flesh from his elbow .

The general still did not give up . He took several arrows from his quiver at once, planning to use multiple arrows and rapid fire at Tong .

Before he could get up into shooting position, the corner of Huang Zhong noticed activity on the catapult that Tong secured . They were aiming at his archer tower .

'It's been fun, brat . I'll fight you next time!'

"Everyone, abandon the tower!" Huang Zhong gave his order and leaped down the ladders in a hurry .

Three seconds later, a boulder slammed onto the tower, crushing its foundation pillars and the top of the tower collapsed, killing the remaining archers that did not jump down in time .

Huang Zhong managed to leap down one story at a time . He landed on the ground in one piece .

He looked back at the direction where Tong was . The young general had disappeared into the crowd of garrison soldiers .

'This one is my defeat . Next time, I won't lose!' Thought Huang Zhong before he withdrew back to the main army .

Tong looked at the destroyed tower with a depressed expression on his face . He overused his overclock mode, and he suffered backlashes from it . Blood coming out from his nose, and a trail drop of blood coming out of his right eye . The right eye was now dark red, and his pupil also glowed in blood color .

A severe headache and dizziness made Tong staggered, yet he preserved and continued leading his men .

"Don't worry about me! Take back the wall! Burn the siege ladders!" Tong ordered while he pointed his guns to the front and fired .

Because Tong was not in a condition to spearhead for his men, he stood behind on the inner wall battlement and provided covering fire for the garrison force .

Another commotion happened on the other side of the west wall .

Xu Huang and his 5,000 men were clearing the path on the right wing, the opposite wing where Tong was . He waved his battle ax to the side, sweeping away all enemies .

Everywhere he charged, dissected bodies of Imperial soldiers would fly into the air, and it would rain blood . Like a bulldozer, he led his fellow garrison force and did not stop sending Zhu Jun's men flying .

The troops behind Xu Huang took the role of cleaners . They tossed crude oil jars and barrels at the siege ladders and burnt it as they passed .

They also secured all usable catapults and fired back at the archer towers, destroying them .

Two hours later after Xu Huang reinforced the west wall, all siege weapons that Zhu Jun and Liu Biao sent at the west wall were destroyed . Xu Huang and his men ran into Tong and his troops while they were patrolling the wall .

"My Lord?"

Xu Huang was shocked . Tong's condition was critical . His skins were red as they were burnt by the hot fume, and his right eye and nose were dripping blood . Tong's breathing was also rough and fast, telling everyone that he was exhausted .

"I'm fine . It will heal in a night . You take care of the west wall . I'll return to the south wall . "

"Y-Yes, sir!"

Because Tong noticed that all siege ladders had been taking care of, he returned to his station . The south wall had fewer men than all the walls after all .

By the time Tong got to the south wall, Zhu Jun's men had blown a horn and waved their color flags, signaling a retreat .

"All troops, withdraw!"

With a single blow of the horn, all soldiers below the wall rushed back . The Imperial soldiers who were stranded on the wall were either killed or surrendered . The soldiers on the bamboo ladders jumped down and ran away from the wall, returning to their army .

The garrison force cheered and shouted the warcry . They survived the onslaught . </the></you></you></you></you>
