C8 Capture the Clerk Alive

The Deng County was located at the southernmost part of the Nanyang County, bordering the Xiangyang.

The border between the Deng County and the Xiangyang.

Wenn Pinn led a hundred soldiers to this place and received a message from the scouts. Zhang Xiu was less than ten miles away from him. After receiving the news, Wenn Pinn stopped moving forward and waited for Zhang Xiu to arrive.

Wenn Pinn was from Nanyang and was nearly thirty years old. He was tall and strong, and he was very skilled in martial arts. Although Cai Mao's position was higher than his, in terms of leading troops, Wenn Pinn far surpassed Cai Mao. He was the general Liu Biao relied on the most.

The 100 soldiers beside Wenn Pinn were all wearing armor and were riding their horses. These soldiers were veterans who had fought hundreds of battles. Each of them was over 180 centimeters tall. They were tall, sturdy, and extremely vigorous.

Wenn Pinn led his troops to welcome Zhang Xiu. In name, he was here to welcome Zhang Xiu, but he was here to show Zhang Xiu his strength. The sun in April was warm and comfortable on his body. Wenn Pinn sat on his horse, basking in the sun and waiting.

Time passed slowly. Everyone was waiting.

Tap! Tap!"

The sound of horse hooves could be heard coming from the main road ahead.

"General, they're here!"

In the formation, a lieutenant reminded.

Wenn Pinn heard him and looked up. He saw a group of people on the road ahead. They were hurrying on their horses. Although there weren't many people, the horses still caused a cloud of dust to rise from the ground.

The distance between the two sides was quickly shortened.

When the distance between the two sides was less than a hundred steps, Wenn Pinn saw Cai Mao among the crowd. Seeing that Cai Mao was riding on horseback, Wenn Pinn thought to himself. Since he was riding on horseback, why didn't Cai Mao find an opportunity to ride his horse and run away?

As long as Cai Mao escaped, Liu Biao's situation would be different. In fact, Cai Mao really wanted to escape. The key was that he didn't have a chance under Zhang Xiu's eyes. It was impossible for him to escape.

When they were ten steps away from each other, Zhang Xiu and the others stopped.

Wenn Pinn's gaze landed on Zhang Xiu. Seeing Zhang Xiu's heroic appearance, he asked, "You are Zhang Xiu?"

Zhang Xiu replied, "I am Zhang Xiu. I am going to the Xiangyang to pay my respects to Jing Prefect Liu. Who are you? Why are you blocking my way?"

Wenn Pinn said, "I am Wenn Pinn. I am here to welcome you on Lord's orders."

"General Wen, lead the way," Zhang Xiu said.

"Give me my weapon."

Wenn Pinn did not answer Zhang Xiu's question. He gave the order and a soldier handed him a long knife. Wenn Pinn held the knife in his hand and shouted, "Zhang Xiu, you have the courage to go down to Xiangyang. You are a good man. Now, let me test your purity in the future. Let's see if you have the ability to meet Lord."

As soon as he finished speaking, Wenn Pinn urged his horse forward.

The blade was dragged forward on the ground, making a cracking sound. The horse was as fast as lightning. In an instant, Wenn Pinn rushed in front of Zhang Xiu with the saber in his hand. He stopped in his tracks. His left hand held the reins of the horse and his right hand swung the saber in his hand.

"Kill!"

Pei Rann's killing intent instantly erupted.

The blade was sharp and cold. Before it reached Zhang Xiu, it already made people feel a chill in their hearts.

Zhang Xiu sat on the back of the horse. His expression was normal and he did not panic at all. He gripped the horse's abdomen with his legs and held the Tiger Head Golden Spear. He used the Conqueror's Cauldron to block the slash.

Clang!

The blade and the Spear Shaft collided. Sparks flew in all directions, and it caused one's eardrums to hurt even more.

Wenn Pinn slashed down with his saber. Zhang Xiu did not move at all.

In the next moment, Wenn Pinn flipped his hand that was holding the handle of the sword. The blade cut horizontally in the direction of the tip of the spear, aiming straight for Zhang Xiu's palm. However, just as Wenn Pinn made his move, Zhang Xiu had already made his move.

Zhang Xiu released his left hand and avoided the blade. His right hand held the end of the Spear Shaft. He retracted the long spear and thrust it out quickly, aiming for Wenn Pinn's chest.

The spear was in the middle, and it was the hardest to dodge.

Wenn Pinn was surprised by Zhang Xiu's counterattack speed, but he did not panic at all. After all, he was a veteran on the battlefield. He leaned back and dodged Zhang Xiu's attack.

Zhang Xiu saw this and sneered.

The opportunity had come.

The Tiger Head Golden Spear in Zhang Xiu's hand changed again. As if he had already expected Wenn Pinn's action, when Wenn Pinn leaned back, the Tiger Head Golden Spear suddenly smashed down.

This was to predict the enemy's first move.

Just as Wenn Pinn moved, the Tiger Head Golden Spear rushed over like a bone gangrene, making Wenn Pinn exhausted to deal with it. Wenn Pinn immediately felt his scalp tingle. He did not expect Zhang Xiu to be so powerful.

At such an age, he was so powerful.

Wenn Pinn had no time to think about it. He held the saber with both hands and held it in front of his chest to block the attack.

The long spear was like a stick, smashing onto the handle of the knife.

"Clang!"

A piercing sound suddenly rang out.

The boundless energy was like the pouring of the heavenly river as it completely invaded Wenn Pinn's hands that were holding the saber. At this moment, Wenn Pinn felt as if his body had been struck by lightning. His palms were numb and painful, and he almost lost control of the saber in his hands.

"It's impolite not to reciprocate. Take my attack."

The Tiger Head Golden Spear in Zhang Xiu's hand trembled, and the tip of the spear turned into cold lights that pierced towards Wenn Pinn's heart.

The tip of the spear nodded like a hundred birds facing a phoenix.

This attack was as fast as lightning.

Wenn Pinn exerted force from his waist, jumped up, and once again sat on the horse's back. The moment the spear came, Wenn Pinn swung his saber, intending to block Zhang Xiu's spear.

Unfortunately, Wenn Pinn's saber missed. With a piercing sound, the tip of the spear pierced into Wenn Pinn's shoulder with lightning speed, bringing with it a pool of blood.

Wenn Pinn sucked in a breath of cold air because of the pain. He did not expect Zhang Xiu to be so cunning. On the surface, the spear was aimed at his heart, but it was aimed at his shoulder.

At this moment, fear appeared in Wenn Pinn's heart.

Reason told him that it was best to retreat now. However, Wenn Pinn was not willing to let Zhang Xiu take care of him. If he retreated now, how could he face Zhang Xiu on his way back to Xiangyang?

When he returned to Xiangyang, how would he report to Liu Biao?

He had to defeat Zhang Xiu!

The thought of victory and defeat in Wenn Pinn's heart faded away. All that was left was his fighting spirit. He gripped the saber in his hand tightly and slashed at Zhang Xiu again.

Zhang Xiu did not dodge or dodge. He gathered his strength and swept his spear across.

The two weapons collided again. Wenn Pinn's expression changed drastically.

The power of this attack was far greater than before.

Wenn Pinn's hands, which were holding the saber, cracked open. The saber flew out of his hand. Zhang Xiu's long spear continued forward. With a bang, it smashed heavily on Wenn Pinn's shoulder. Under the impact of the boundless power, Wenn Pinn was knocked off his horse.

"Puff!"

Wenn Pinn fell to the ground. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.

His body seemed to have lost its balance, but Wenn Pinn still mustered up his strength and wanted to get up and retreat back to the battle formation. Without waiting for Wenn Pinn to move, Zhang Xiu's spear had already landed in front of Wenn Pinn's throat.

As long as he moved an inch further, it would be enough to pierce through Wenn Pinn's throat.

"General!"

In the Jing Prefecture army, the lieutenant immediately shouted.

A hundred soldiers urged their horses forward, ready to rescue Wenn Pinn.

Zhang Xiu's eyes widened when he saw this, and his aura soared. He suddenly shouted: "If anyone dares to take another step forward, I will kill Wenn Pinn immediately."

All the soldiers stopped in their tracks when they heard what Zhang Xiu said.

"Men, take Wenn Pinn down!"

Zhang Xiu gave the order, and soldiers detained Wenn Pinn.

At this moment, a smile appeared on Zhang Xiu's face.

With Cai Mao in his hands, he had the confidence to negotiate with Liu Biao. Now that Wenn Pinn had come to provoke him, he would have an easier time negotiating with Liu Biao if he captured Wenn Pinn.

Wenn Pinn stared at Zhang Xiu and clenched his fists. He questioned, "Zhang Xiu, your martial arts skills are far better than yours. Why did you hide in the beginning?"

Zhang Xiu smiled. "If I revealed all my strength from the beginning, would you still fight me? "From the beginning, although I suppressed you, I did not exceed you too much. You have a chance of winning."

"So, you will fight with me."

"You want to defeat me. You even want to use provocation to take me down and exchange for Cai Mao."

"You are plotting against me, and I am also plotting against you."

Zhang Xiu spoke frankly and confidently. "Only by hiding my strength in advance can I catch you by surprise. " Now, you, Wenn Pinn, are a prisoner. Adding Cai Mao, this trip to the Xiangyang will be interesting. "

Wenn Pinn sighed when he heard this.

Zhang Xiu actually hid the art of war in a competition of martial arts, and he wasn't unjustly defeated.
