Chapter 237: Kill Zhang Ying alone
Liu Zheng saw Zhang Ying rushing back from a distance, and knew that Zhang Ying had been tricked.
If Zhang Ying ignores his pursuit and escapes from here, relying on Zhang Ying's strength, there is still a good chance to break through from here, and then enter the mountains, go to the territory of the barbarians, and then escape from here.
But Zhang Ying didn't leave and turned back, so Liu Zheng had to rely on his own strength to leave Zhang Ying behind.
Zhang Ying walked quickly in a few steps, quickly approached Liu Zheng, and then raised his knife to slash.
Liu Zheng's face immediately sank when he saw Zhang Ying, who was quickly attacking him, but he didn't feel nervous at all, but quickly raised the long knife he held in both hands and slashed it in front of him.
With a bang, the weapons of the two collided together, and a huge sound of metal intertwining vibrated out.
The blades of the two slashed together, and then quickly slid through, bringing a scene of sparks splashing.
At the same time, Liu Zheng's hand immediately felt a burst of pain, and the huge impact force made his palm feel numb, and there was even a feeling that the tiger's mouth was about to crack.
Liu Zheng's strength is actually not great. These ancient generals are far more powerful than him. What Liu Zheng is good at is not fighting with strength, but skillful fighting skills.
In the one-knife fight with Zhang Ying, Liu Zheng understood that Zhang Ying's strength was strong, and every attack was with great aggression.
Once hit by his long knife, he was afraid that the knife would cut through his body, and either he would cut him in two, or his entire arm or thigh would be chopped off by him.
Therefore, fighting hard with Zhang Ying is not an ideal state.
After the blow, Liu Zheng quickly changed his strategy.
No more offense, just blind defense.
Fortunately, his skills are still relatively strong, and after being taught by Xu Huang, Gan Ning and others, it is not too bad to fight with Zhang Ying.
After three or two moves, Zhang Ying also figured out Liu Zheng's offensive path and defensive state.
"Hmph, I heard before that Liu Zhengqu Shuai is a powerful figure, killing Qin Jie Taishou, Zhu Jun Zhonglang General, relying on thousands of people to attack Luoyang and kill the Han Emperor, what kind of hero will he be under the fame, I didn't expect it to be just a shameless man who can only do three or two tricks."
Zhang Ying's strength is indeed a few points stronger than Liu Zheng, but it is not so easy to kill Liu Zheng in a short time.
So he wanted to use the agitation method to make Liu Zheng no longer defend, but to attack with him, only in this way could Zhang Ying kill Liu Zheng in a short time.
But Liu Zheng didn't eat him at all.
"General Zhang Ying, you don't have the power to speak your tongue, if you can defeat me, just come. If not, wait for my army to come and die. ”
Liu Zheng swung his knife again to block Zhang Ying's slashing blow, and his body quickly took a step back, pulling his body away a little and maintaining a safe defensive distance.
At this time, Zhang Ying also immediately took a step forward, and at the same time, the big knife held by both hands was raised again, this time with greater force, as if he wanted to directly cut off the weapon in Liu Zheng's hand with the power of both hands.
But what he didn't know was that the weapons in Liu Zheng's hands were blacksmiths under his command, soldiers of a hundred disciplines, and the quality was better than these weapons in Zhang Ying's hands. It's not bad.
The weapon in Liu Zheng's hand, if he wants to be cut off by the big knife in Zhang Ying's hand, unless Zhang Ying's strength is much greater than Liu Zheng's. Either it's Zhang Ying's weapon, sharp enough to cut through steel.
Dangdang twice.
Zhang Ying's attack was again in vain.
Liu Zheng relied on his own defense and easily blocked Zhang Ying's attack. It was obvious that Zhang Ying's offensive force had become stronger, and Liu Zheng also knew that Zhang Ying had no time to delay, trying to increase the intensity of the attack and kill Liu Zheng.
The more this is the case, the more Liu Zheng can feel Zhang Ying's inner anxiety, so he grasps Zhang Ying's flaws and gradually avoids Zhang Ying's attack.
After dozens of rounds of fighting with Zhang Ying, Liu Zheng also spied on the way and rhythm of Zhang Ying's attack from the defense, and it became more and more natural and calm to deal with it.
There were two more attacks, Zhang Ying's solemn expression began to look more and more tired, and Liu Zheng seized a glimmer of opportunity from Zhang Ying's attack.
"It's now!"
Liu Zheng's eyes narrowed slightly, and when he saw Zhang Ying's falling blade, the speed was a little slower, and if he wanted to raise the knife and slash again, there would inevitably be an interval.
This is the feeling of Zhang Ying's strength being sluggish after these dozens of slashes, high-intensity engagements, even if it is a fierce general like Zhang Ying, there will be times when his strength is tired.
And what Liu Zheng is waiting for is such an opportunity.
At the moment when Zhang Ying's big knife fell, Liu Zheng seized the opportunity by the way and decisively changed the defensive weapon from his previous vigilance to become fierce and fierce.
Swing a knife, exhausting the remaining strength left by Liu Zheng.
With a whoosh, the long knife slashed over, bringing out an afterimage.
The knife flashed.
Zhang Ying also wanted to withdraw his weapon and continue to attack Liu Zheng, but he never thought that Liu Zheng, who had been on the defensive, would suddenly counterattack at this time.
But it was too late.
Liu Zheng's long knife was sharp and swift, landing directly on Zhang Ying's left shoulder.
Poof.
The long knife slashed across Zhang Ying's chest.
immediately broke the breastplate on Zhang Ying's body, and then cut into Zhang Ying's skin, and in an instant, the skin inside was opened, and blood splashed out of Zhang Ying's body.
Zhang Ying only felt a sharp pain on his body immediately, but he still didn't kill Zhang Ying directly with a knife, Zhang Ying forcibly held back the pain in his chest, exhausted his last breath, and raised his knife to fight back against Liu Zheng.
But such a counterattack is only in vain, and after being hit by Liu Zheng's knife, he has lost his spirit and spirit, like a deflated ball.
Zhang Ying no longer had the ability to confront Liu Zheng, Liu Zheng took a step back and avoided Zhang Ying's blow, Zhang Ying's blood was surging like a pillar, the strength in his body was lost a lot, and he didn't even have the strength to stand firm under his feet.
With a ding, Zhang Ying held the long knife in his hand and used it as a crutch, so that he could barely stand firm.
He was shocked and incredulous, and looked at Liu Zheng who had already received the long knife in front of him in horror.
"This ...... That's impossible! ”
"I ...... How could I possibly ...... Lose to you ......"
Zhang Ying was unwilling, and before he even finished the last sentence, he was no longer conscious, his eyes were closed, and he fell.
As soon as Zhang Ying died, the soldiers who were still around Zhang Ying were even more frightened, and immediately dispersed in a hurry and fled in all directions.
