Chapter 653: The Peak Battle (2): Riding Alone into Ten Thousands of Troops

Amidst the rain of arrows from the sky, Xiang Yu still strolled around the court without even shedding a drop of sweat.

After seeing this scene, Li Shimin knew that what Xiang Yu said was true. The consumption of Gangqi Shayi on him was really not great. If he continued to shoot, even if Xiang Yu was eventually killed, the arrows brought by the coalition might not be enough.

This operation is only to kill Xiang Yu, so naturally it will not carry the number of arrows used in conventional warfare. After all, how many arrows are needed to kill one person?

One? Dozens of branches? Dozens? A hundred arrows would reach the sky, and no more arrows would be able to penetrate a human body.

But who could have guessed in advance that Xiang Yu's Gang Qi gauze clothing would have such a powerful defensive power.

Hundreds of thousands of arrows did not hit the corner of his clothes. Xiang Yu's existence has broken the common sense of war.

And if all the arrows are used up but Xiang Yu still fails to be shot to death, the situation will be extremely embarrassing.

At this thought, Li Shimin's face turned extremely gloomy, and then he ordered in a deep voice: "Stop firing arrows."

The well-trained archery team immediately stopped the execution after receiving the order, put away their long bows and retreated slowly.

Shi Lan at the edge of the cliff finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing this scene.

As the nemesis of all warriors, the bow and arrow could not do anything to her husband. Shi Lan was sincerely proud of Xiang Yu.

But at this moment, a ray of silver light pierced the sky, like lightning, and shot toward Xiang Yu quickly.

Xiang Yu, who had a joking look on his face one second, showed a serious look the next second, and then raised the Overlord Halberd in his hand with all his strength.

Ding…

This silver arrow that broke through the air was directly picked up by Xiang Yu.

The Han coalition forces were in an uproar when they saw this scene.

Ten thousand archers surrounded Xiang Yu and shot hundreds of thousands of arrows, but Xiang Yu didn't even move, but he used his weapons on this arrow alone.

　Who was it that shot this arrow?

All the princes looked at Xiang Yu who was shooting arrows in unison, and saw Hou Yi holding a long bow and maintaining the position of shooting arrows, staring at Xiang Yu opposite with a solemn expression.

“What an amazing archery skill.”

Cao Cao also looked shocked, and then asked Xia Houyuan beside him: "Miaocai, if it were you who took action, could you do this?"

Without even thinking about it, Xia Houyuan shook his head and said: "Such a fierce force shows that the bow used by this man may have reached ten stones, but I can only use five stones. The gap is really too big."

“So General Hou Yi is so powerful?” Cao Cao said happily.

Cao Cao actually knew Hou Yi a long time ago. He knew Hou Yi when he was an official in Luoyang. However, Cao Cao did not know that Hou Yi was so powerful. If he had known that he would have recruited Hou Yi long ago, of course it is not too late now.

“General Hou Yi doesn’t seem to be very important in the court?”

Cao Cao thought to himself, and there was a hint of strange color in his eyes when he looked at Hou Yi.

On the other hand, Taishi Ci, who was also good at archery, said to himself solemnly: "It's not just the strength of the bow."

Hearing this, Cao Cao looked puzzled. He smiled and asked, "Young general, is there any other way to hit the arrow just now?" Seeing that Cao Cao was a prince, he treated himself as a young general. Taishi Ci felt flattered by such politeness and quickly explained:

“General Cao, did you notice the light on that arrow?”

Cao Cao nodded and asked, "Which one is it?"

“That’s the light emitted by the inner force covering the arrow.”

Taishi Ci looked up at him and said in a deep voice: "That general first covered the arrow with his internal power, and then shot the arrow out with the strength of a ten-stone bow. After the arrow was blessed by the bow and internal power, he then used This forced Xiang Yu to use weapons. "

“Internal energy covers the arrow and shoots out? Isn’t this the release of internal energy?”

Cao Cao's eyes widened and he said in shock: "So, General Hou Yi is a martial arts master?"

Tai Shi Ci thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Definitely."

Hearing this, the other princes also looked shocked, and their eyes turned hot when they looked at Hou Yi.

Xiang Yu is a special case after all, and the masters are basically the leaders of hundreds of schools, so being super first-class is already the strongest among all the princes.

Now that they know that Hou Yi is the master, all the princes naturally want to take him under their command. Of course, Hou Yi, who even Qin Hao rejected, will definitely not pay attention to them.

“A ten-stone bow, a master’s strength, and superb archery skills. Can the combination of these three destroy Xiang Yu’s Gang Qi gauze?”

Li Shimin's eyes suddenly brightened, and he asked Hou Yi: "General Hou Yi, how many more times can you use that arrow just now? Are you sure you can kill Xiang Yu?"

At this time, Hou Yi was locked by Xiang Yu's energy. He felt that he was not facing a human, but a huge beast from the wild, so he didn't even dare to turn his head.

Hou Yi stared at Xiang Yu, but said decisively to Li Shimin: "No, Xiang Yu is already on guard. No matter how many arrows there are, it is impossible to hit him."

A trace of annoyance flashed in Li Shimin's eyes. If he had known this, he should have asked Hou Yi to shoot cold arrows at the same time as Wanjun fired arrows. In this way, even if Xiang Yu was powerful, it would be difficult to defend against him. Unfortunately, Xiang Yu had already taken precautions.

On the other side, Xiang Yu stared at Hou Yi and said coldly: "It's you again who only knows how to shoot cold arrows."

Xiang Yu was so impressed by the archer who almost killed Shi Lan that it was difficult to forget him. Now that he met Xiang Yu again, it was naturally impossible for him to let Hou Yi go.

"Well, since no one dares to fight with me, let me, Xiang Yu, experience the power of the eighteen princes."

After saying this, Xiang Yu whistled again, and the black hair on the edge of the cliff immediately started to stir.

Seeing this, Shi Lan immediately dismounted his horse and let Wu Zui trample on the snow. Xiang Yu, without even looking behind him, pointed his halberd directly at Hou Yi and roared: "Kill..."

With hundreds of thousands of troops in front of him, Xiang Yu took the initiative to launch a sprint. When Wu Zui caught up with him, he jumped onto his horse and rode alone to kill the eighteen princes.

"Xiang Yu doesn't take our eighteen princes in the slightest, and dares to ride alone into the formation. This is extremely arrogant."

Liu Yu's face became extremely gloomy, and he immediately said to Li Shimin: "Alliance leader, Xiang Yu is already a turtle in the urn. Now he is just a trapped beast still fighting. There is no need to directly confront him head-on. Why not let the soldiers go and consume his physical strength first?"

Liu Yu also saw that all the princes did not want their generals to be used as cannon fodder, so he took the initiative to let the soldiers go first.

Seeing Liu Yu give up the steps, Li Shimin breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ordered: "The spearmen form a formation, the cavalry charges, and the leader of the alliance surrounds and kills Xiang Yu."

“Nuo…” all the generals shouted in unison.
