Chapter 151 - Oxybeles Prototype Launched!!!!

Translated by Bloodfalcon, Edited by Krayto

“Old General Huang!!!” Liu Mang screamed while his eyes almost fall off of its socket. Huang Zhong was attacked by three people simultaneously and attacking him like merry-go-round. Two of them are superclass generals and the other, although he already lost an arm, cannot be underestimated.

Right now, Liu Mang did not have any other reinforcements. Liu Kai and Liu Neng, both of them are scholars, they definitely will not count on them. Cheng Yu was dispatched by Liu Mang to request for reinforcements. The only one that can fight is Lu Lingqi. If he dispatched Lu Lingqi, he will be a laughing stock of this nation which Liu Mang will prevent at all costs. Also during Zhou Tai, her hips was slashed by Zhou Tai, it was enough to almost count as a deep wound. With that, Liu Mang would rather die than to make his beloved Ling'er take action again.

As for Huang Xu, he also wanted to save his father but currently the distance is too far and his long bow will not be able to cover that much distance.

“URGH!!!!” Huang Zhong's brow was pressed to its maximum. He has nowhere to go, one side has Jiang Qin. Jiang Qin truly hates Huang Zhong to the bone. Huang Zhong did not only kill his brother, but also destroyed his appendages and even COOKED his brother's body. So, now Jiang Qin will gladly give his life for Huang Zhong to die.

The other side has Taishi Ci, his twin halberds is just like a two-headed snake which can bite Huang Zhong at any time.

The other side has Sun Ce with The Conqueror Spear. This guy is too dangerous, with one swing of that spear, his waist can be destroyed.

Huang Zhong gnashed his teeth. He was overconfident, he oversaw the other secret of The Conqueror Spear. If only Sun Ce was his only opponent, Huang Zhong did not fear anything and can claim victory. But now, he is besieged by three people. A minor mistake will paid with his life.

“FINE THEN, I'LL TAKE ONE OF YOU DOWN WITH ME!!!” Huang Zhong gotten angry. These three youngsters are not a match for him in a one on one battle. Huang Zhong has become really determined to kill Sun Ce and thought “Oh, Sun Ce!!! Today this old man will die, but you will accompany me to hell together!!!” He also thought “At least this is my final contribution and my final offering to the little lord for rescuing my son Xu also this Sun Ce army will become headless and an easy prey for my little lord!!!”

Sun Ce also felt that killing intent and made his fine hair standing but he calmed down immediately. He is the successor of the Western Chu Conqueror Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu is a prideful man that will not give up until the last breath. In the past, Xiang Yu was cornered to a location near Wu River by Liu Bang. So, all of Jiangdong's people now are Chu's descendants.

At that time, when Xiang Yu was cornered by Liu Bang, he screamed to the sky “None can kill this Conqueror from Chu, but myself” and slit his throat. Xiang Yu has lost hope for retaliating Liu Bang back and he did not have face to return to his hometown again.

“SHAAA!!!!” Sun Ce also quickly retaliated and he thought “Oh, want this Sun Ce dead? Sun Ce will kill you first!!!”

“COME ON THEN!!!” Huang Zhong invite his death but before that he bellowed “Little lord, This Huang Zhong leaves Xu to you!!!” Huang Zhong's most worried matter is Huang Xu. Huang Xu is Huang Zhong's everything. As long as Huang Xu is alive, Huang Zhong can become anyone's dog, can become Liu Pan's and Huang Zu's and even Huang She's dog and was willing to work himself to death in order to find a good doctor and material for Huang Xu's medicine.

Now that burden is relieved from Huang Zhong's shoulder. Liu Mang brought medicine for Huang Xu. Also during that unsuccessful escape from Huangzhou city, Huang Xu told Huang Zhong that it is very good to follow Liu Mang and he is cured thanks to Liu Mang's medicine therefore Huang Zhong proclaimed that Liu Mang is his little lord and Lu Bu is his lord.

“Old Man Huang, I WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO DIE!!! I LEAVE HUANG XU TO YOU AND ONLY YOU!!!!” Liu Mang responded to Huang Zhong's bellow.

“Honorable Father, YOU STILL NEED TO LIVE, YOU HAVE YET TAUGHT THIS XU, YOUR WUSHU SKILLS!!!” Huang Xu also bellowed.

Liu Mang quickly remembered the secret weapon he built and ordered “Huang Xu, target Sun Ce or Taishi Ci, just aim and pull the trigger!!!” Huang Xu responded “Yes, little lord!!!”

“WENG!!!” That sound was made when Huang Xu pulled the trigger. That sound was not the sound of an arrow being shot but instead was a thundering sound.

“What the hell is that?!” Sun Ce pondered. A jet-black arrow-like shadow was shot from city wall. Its speed is truly fast and was now closing into the duel location.

“What the hell is that?!” Taishi Ci stopped his assault toward Huang Zhong. If he continued to assault Huang Zhong, he knows he will not be able to live and with that jet-black arrow flying toward them, it is certain death waiting for Taishi Ci. Sun Ce also stopped his assault and changed into passive defense.

Only Jiang Qin who did not care about the impending crisis. As long as he can kill this old brute, it is worth it.

“Good, a chance!!!” Huang Zhong who has just realized that he is able to survive this battle, quickly swing his curved dao toward Jiang Qin's broadsword.

“Clang!!!” Jiang Qin's broadsword was split into two. Although Jiang Qin is very angry, he is unable to do anything toward Huang Zhong. Right now, Jiang Qin understood profoundly the feeling of powerlessness that Liu Mang felt from all of his battles.

“WENG!!!!” That jet-black form was getting nearer and nearer. Taishi Ci and Sun Ce quickly redirected their horse in order to escape, only Jiang Qin is still not responding to that crisis.

“GONGYI, BE CAREFUL!!!!” Taishi Ci quickly threw one of his halberd toward that shadow. That did not stop the shadow but merely change the angle. But that angle changing rescued Jiang Qin's life. That shadow now avoid penetrating his right chest but killed his warhorse.

His warhorse who have been frightened by that black shadow suddenly rise its leg and the jet-black shadow pierce his head and had the effect of a watermelon being shot by a shotgun, but that did not stop the penetrating power of this jet-black shadow.

Although it pierced a different thing, the shadow’s speed did not recede even a bit, but finally it allowed Sun Ce see this thing. That thing is a log that was used as arrow. Although currently, there is no tip, it did not reduce its strength at all. Once this thing has a tip, no one can stop this thing once launched and now still flying toward Sun Ce.

“Huh, ballista?!” Sun Ce murmured to himself. Sun Ce had heard a story about ballista’s from Sun Jian when they had a conference in order to repel invaders. This type of thing will only appear in the frontier region in Bing Province or You Province. This is used to destroy enemies' morale rather than doing mass killings. This things range is 1,000 steps. One shot can kill multiple men, made great shield and heavy armor like paper and can kill mighty generals in an instant.

This thing was called “Satan” by invaders. Invaders' troops mainly consists of cavalries and this thing can made them look like a shish kabob along with 20 of their comrades and horses. With that, you will not die immediately, but instead make you cry loudly while waiting for death.

Therefore with ballista in the city, invaders did not dare to attack rashly.

However, ballista’s had a big drawback, that it is reloading time. The ballista also was called 8-cows bow, it means it need at least 8 cows to pull the strings and at least 100 people to pull the strings and can only fire one arrow at a time and did not have any accuracy at all.

This thing can only use to frighten but cannot be used in actual combat. Therefore in the southern area of Yellow River, there is no such thing as ballistae.

Now, on Wancheng city, there is a ballista installed and was shot on them. How can that not make Sun Ce afraid and stunned?

Sun Ce will not use his prized Conqueror Spear, because it is not this arrow's opponent. Now to evade this arrow Sun Ce must jumped off his warhorse but he is not willing to throw this warhorse away and the next scene is very gory.

“Poof!!!” The great arrow penetrated his warhorse. This horse is a wild horse that he tamed by himself and has the characteristics like the Red Hare. This horse is so wild that when he was initially captured, in order to silence his wild side, he was put in a stable filled with 20 other tamed good horses. But who ever expected that this wild horse kicked and killed 15 of the horses and the remaining 5 horses were so traumatized by that event that they become docile.

When Sun Ce saw this wild horse, he took immediate liking to him and quickly tried to tame him. When it managed to break through the stable, Sun Ce quickly chased after it until it was exhausted. Sun Ce thought it was already tired and want to give up but the horse quickly retaliated with his kick until Sun Ce brandished his Conqueror Spear. Not until after that horse saw Sun Ce with the Conqueror Spear did it suddenly become docile and kneel in front of Sun Ce.

After that, when he went to pacify Jiangdong, he always used this horse with him and gave him the name “Oolong”.

This Oolong understood that his master will be in grave danger if he stayed on his back, suddenly he raised his front legs and shook his body so Sun Ce will fall down, therefore sparing him his fate.

Sun Ce also refused to dismount, disregarding his and Gongjin's agreement, disregarding that he still had to fulfill his late father's will, disregarding that he still had mother and sister to support.

Finally Sun Ce had fallen down from his horse but Oolong still stayed on its posture, unmoved, ready to accept the fate.

“Poof!!!” The arrow stabbed Oolong's abdomen with no effort at all, but still unable to slow down the arrows velocity and even carried Oolong's internal organs.

“Oolong!!!” Sun Ce's eyes are tearful and quickly brandished his Conqueror Spear to retaliate back this arrow who just killed his partner.

But his effort proved to be fruitless, as the Conqueror Spear was unable to hold the momentum of this arrow and was split into two; his right side being scarred by this arrow.
