Dian Wei wielded a halberd, and Xu Chu held a sword; both men possessed the courage to fight ten thousand men. As they charged into the city, though they faced a vast army, they showed no fear whatsoever.

On the contrary, there was a burning intensity in those eyes.

Come on! Hahahaha!

Dian Wei, his face flushed red, burst into loud laughter and charged into the crowd, his two iron halberds smashing down on the soldiers in front of him.

The iron halberd was extremely heavy, but it was as if it were nothing in his hands. His thick arms were as thick as an adult's waist, and he wielded the pair of iron halberds with great force.

At that moment, two iron halberds fell into the enemy ranks, followed by a continuous series of "bang bang" sounds.

That was the sound of a halberd striking a helmet!

With each strike of the halberd, the helmet dented, and the skull caved in as well, blood and brain matter spurting out, splattering the inside of the helmet with red and white matter.

"ah!"

The screams were incessant, enough to make one's liver and gall bladder tremble.

Even the soldiers who were far away were terrified when they saw this scene, their bodies trembling like leaves.

Not to mention those who faced Dian Wei directly. Although they had already swung their halberds at Dian Wei, Dian Wei smashed countless weapons with a single blow!

Those two iron halberds, though lacking sharpness, were truly top-notch killing weapons!

A single blow could cause injury, a single touch could lead to death; countless people suffered broken skulls and fractured bones.

The soldiers guarding the city were both afraid and angry at his ferocity. They wanted to kill him with a single blow, but dared not approach him.

In just a short while, Dian Wei was covered in blood and grime, the flesh and blood clinging to his iron halberds a gruesome sight, yet he continued to roar:

"Come, come! Fight me!"

On the other side, Xu Chu, wielding the Fire Cloud Blade, remained unusually silent.

Unlike Dian Wei, Xu Chu didn't shout or yell; he simply silently slashed at the crowd with his sword.

With a single sweep of the blade, heads rolled down; with a single slash, even a shield could be blocked, and the blade would split the head in two, cleaving open the chest cavity!

The soldiers mustered their courage and charged toward the silent Xu Chu.

After all, compared to the loud-roaring, halberd-wielding giant, the man in front of him was clearly less imposing.

"kill!"

A dozen halberds thrust at Xu Chu, whose face was ashen. He gripped his Fiery Cloud Blade tightly, took a small step back, and then—

He stepped forward with one foot and moved his right hand back to the very back of the hilt of the knife.

Then, the slash swept upwards in a wide, sweeping motion!

"Bang!"

With a crisp, clean sound, the shafts of several halberds were severed in one stroke!

The soldiers were shocked and hurriedly retreated.

Xu Chu raised his eyes, his gaze icy.

He took another step, turned his body, and the long, narrow Fire Cloud Blade swept out once more.

The snow-white blade was like a cold glint, or a white line moving swiftly towards them.

With a "poof" sound.

Several heads flew off in unison, and blood gushed out like a fountain from the smooth necks.

"Bang bang bang".

Amidst the rising dust, heads lay scattered on the ground.

The commander was both shocked and furious. He gritted his teeth and shouted, "Charge! All of you, charge!"

At his command, he took the lead and charged towards Xu Chu with a group of soldiers.

"What? You look down on me!"

Dian Wei, standing to the side, shouted at the garrison commander and rushed to Xu Chu's side in a few steps. The two of them stood back to back, facing the swarm of soldiers gathering around them.

"Kill!" The defending general, his face contorted with rage, brandished his long sword and charged at Dian Wei!

"Good timing!"

Dian Wei was not afraid at all; on the contrary, he became even more excited and swung his halberd to meet the long sword.

With a loud "bang," weapons clashed, and a burst of sparks flew out. The defending general was violently shaken by the blow, and the tiger's mouth of his hand holding the knife split open, with blood spurting out.

"hiss--"

He gasped in pain, his eyes narrowing.

Looking at the blade, one could see that the halberd had struck a notch in the edge!

Just then, a whooshing sound rang out, and Dian Wei stepped forward, swinging his halberd straight at the face of the guard!

The garrison commander was shocked and hurriedly retreated. Seeing that he was in trouble, the soldiers beside him quickly raised their halberds and thrust them at Dian Wei.

Dian Wei's eyes widened, and he took another step forward, closing the distance. He opened his right arm and tucked the halberds under his arm, then let out a roar:

"die!"

Dian Wei turned around, and the shafts of those halberds snapped one after another. In the instant he turned, the halberds swept out horizontally!

"Bang bang bang"

A series of smashing sounds rang out as the iron halberd smashed the heads and faces of the soldiers to pieces!

Such a sight terrified the guard, who trembled like a leaf and stumbled and fell to the ground as he retreated.

Dian Wei immediately strode towards the guard, intending to smash his head with his halberd!

Just then—

A long sword flashed out from the side, and with a "thud," the guard's head was cleanly and swiftly severed!

Dian Wei's eyes widened suddenly, and he flew into a rage, raising his double halberds and shouting:

"I'm going to kill him!!"

Xu Chu remained silent as always. He simply picked up his knife and charged into the crowd once more!

Just then, the giant tree was moved aside, the city gate was fully opened, and more and more people poured out.

Meanwhile, large groups of soldiers also rushed down from the city walls where the fierce battle raged.

The people outside the city and the people on the city walls are all Qin Ze's men!

The outer city walls of Anyang County have now been completely breached!

Large numbers of troops began to rush into the city, and the entire outer city was engulfed in a fierce battle!
