Though he could defeat Zhou Tai and the other two, he could not reverse their disadvantage, because there were simply too many enemy soldiers around them.
The Elite Warriors of the Vanguard Camp were brave, but they lacked his exceptional stamina. After one unrelenting battle after another, their losses began to mount rapidly.
At this rate, they would inevitably be surrounded and killed here.
Huang Zhong understood their situation perfectly, but he had long since put life and death out of his mind. Now he had only one thought.
To pin these men down here!
He would never let them go to Sun Quan's aid!
Meanwhile, Zhou Tai and the other two grew increasingly alarmed as they fought. They had thought that together they could quickly finish off this old general, only to discover that they could not beat him at all!
They could only rely on their superior numbers to surround him and attack in shifts. Otherwise, all three of them might already have died beneath Huang Zhong's blade!
"Youping, Yigong and I will hold this old bastard here. Hurry and reinforce our lord!"
Seeing that they could not finish Huang Zhong off anytime soon, Cheng Pu decisively gave Zhou Tai the order. He feared Zhang Liao would catch Sun Quan before he could escape back to camp.
"All right!"
Zhou Tai had suffered multiple wounds, and the blood covering him made him look quite terrifying. But upon hearing Cheng Pu's instructions, he agreed without another word.
Yet just as he prepared to leave the battlefield,
he spotted a force approaching from the rear in the distance.
It was Zhang Liao!
Zhang Liao had led the First to Scale Elite Warriors back to the battlefield, only this time he had Sun Quan beside him, trussed up tight!
"My lord!"
