Han Xiang

Chapter 347 This Xu Chu is Strange

What the hell?This is the end?
Long Xiang used to be a general of Yuan Shu's army. Does he want to avenge Ji Ling and Lu Mian?
I heard that Xu Chufei killed Zheng Bao with stones, injured Han Dang, and even fought on par with Sun Ce. I don't know how many martial arts are there?
While Zhang Liao was thinking, the opponent's formation was agitated, and then a general galloped forward.

"You are Xu Chu?"

"You are Zhang Liao?"

"I wanted to meet you earlier."

"Right on my mind."

The two met each other and looked at each other briefly. After two lines of dialogue in the style of ancient dragons, they simultaneously discussed the sword and urged the horse to rush in both directions, and soon they fought together.

In terms of martial arts and combat experience, there is a certain gap between Dong Xi and Zhang Liao.

But Dong Xisheng is young and energetic, and has the energy of a newborn calf not afraid of tigers, so it is not a problem to resist more than ten rounds with all his strength.

Before the battle, Sun Quan was worried that Dong Xi would lose, and he also had the intention of winning people's hearts, so he gave him his green horse as a gift, so that he could withdraw from the battlefield in time.

Zhang Liao had heard that Xu Chu was good at flying stones to hurt people, so he was distracted during the battle, worried that the opponent would cheat when attacking, and had reservations when fighting with swordsmanship.

Dong Xi is in the name of Xu Chu, and the main character of swords and horses is steady, with cautious chopping and chopping movements, without any domineering attitude.

This martial art seems to be nothing more than that
It seems that Sun Ce's reputation as a little overlord is also suspected of bragging. Although "Xu Chu"'s martial arts is not low, he is not ranked high under Cao Cao's command.

After several rounds, Zhang Liao became suspicious.

It is believed that Xu Chu and Sun Ce are not worthy of their names, and it is also possible that with such martial arts, they are already top-notch existences in Jiangdong.

Generals are only at this level, and it makes sense for ordinary soldiers to have low combat effectiveness.

The two armies fought in front of the battle, Zhang Liao had other interests, and Dong Xi focused on defense. It can't be said that the two armies are pecking at each other, it can only be said that the fight was not exciting.

It's like a football match, where both sides are skillful at passing the ball, but there's almost no shot at the moment.

In front of Cao Jun's battle, Cao Chun frowned and murmured to himself: "This Xu Chukong has a burly physique, why didn't he even have a suppressive offensive? It is said that the two of them should have fought in the dark, why is it as plain as eating white water?" Like a fish, according to Zhang Wenyuan's behavior style, he will definitely make a ruthless move after Shihe, did Xu Chu do it on purpose? Or is Long Xiang up to something?"

"No. It's not like..." Han Hao next to him shook his head.

Han Hao is very ordinary in martial arts. He has never fought against others before, and he almost never made any comments about fighting generals. Cao Chun's interest was aroused by his speech at this time.

"Yuan Si sees something?"

"This Xu Chu is really strange, he doesn't have Xu Cunshi's arrogance at all." Han Hao shook his head slightly, and added: "And his weapons seem to be different."

"Really?" Cao Chun was noncommittal.

After a while, the two generals fought to the tenth match.

Zhang Liao saw that Xu Chu was perfunctory, and although his sword skills were proficient but his offensive was too weak, he let go as Cao Chun speculated. Zhang Liao began to concentrate on attacking, while Dong Xi was fully on the defensive.

"Xu Chu, is this your ability?"

Facing Zhang Liao's ridicule, Dong Xi dodged and pretended to be mysterious: "What do you know? Even with this little ability, you can't hold it back, can you?"

"Really? I hope you are decapitated and have such a hard mouth."

Zhang Liao swung his broadsword and slashed recklessly, his attack frequency doubled from before.

Dong Xi barely resisted for two rounds, then suddenly reined in the reins and turned around, urging the green horse to quickly flee to the main formation.

"That's it?"

Zhang Liao let out a cold snort, then raised his knife and shouted loudly, "Follow me to kill you."

"kill."

"Kill it."

Behind him, Cao Jun stepped forward in unison, calling for Zhang Liao to attack.

Since Xu Chu's martial arts are slick, Zhang Liao also thinks that Long Xiang's soldiers are also sluggish. He ordered the whole army to attack at this time, also for the purpose of testing.

Zhou Yu, who was on the opposite side, was already prepared. He commanded Jiangdong's elite soldiers to face the battle, and directly withstood Cao's attack. hair.

At this time, the troops of Sun and Cao are equal, but because Cao's army is dominated by cavalry, it suffers from fewer soldiers when the infantry hedges, and when the cavalry faces a neat infantry phalanx, it cannot attack head-on like the infantry. The maneuvering advantage of the war horse is gone.

The battle was fought suddenly and ended even more suddenly.

When Zhou Yu had the upper hand in the situation, he suddenly ordered the entire army to retreat. Zhang Liao saw that the opponent retreated in an orderly manner, and immediately knew that he had encountered a master of soldiers, so he ordered his soldiers not to pursue.

Although it's just a taste, but the harvest is not small.

Zhou Yu saw Zhang Liao's bravery and Cao Jun's orders and prohibitions. At the same time, he learned that Long Xiang was not a face to Cao Jun, so Chen Wu could no longer show himself in front of others, but the plan to divert the disaster to the east was still going on, so he stopped after retreating five miles. down.

Zhang Liao discussed with Cao Chun and Han Hao after the war, intending to report what he saw and heard to Cao Cao in Shucheng, and regarded the 5000 people of "Longxiang" as the core threat. It would be difficult for Cao Jun to win with the same number, and There is a pretty heavy price to pay.

As for whether to catch up and play a children's chase game with the 5000 people ahead, Cao Cao's follow-up orders are needed.

In order to clarify the issue, Han Hao returned to Shucheng on behalf of Zhang Liao and Cao Chun.

After Cao Cao heard Han Hao's introduction, he felt dizzy for a while. He thought that Hefei's troops were so strong that if he cooperated with Sun Quan in attacking the Liang Dao, Xia Houyuan would definitely feel the pressure, but what does it mean that the Longxiang battle stopped?
Seeing that Cao Cao was silent, Han Hao reminded anxiously: "My lord, General Zhang and General Cao are waiting for your reply, should they pursue or not? The land in this area is flat, so it should be difficult to deploy ambushes. If you want to eat 'Long Xiang' For these 5000 people, it is necessary to send thousands of infantry, and the cavalry is not very effective against this infantry regiment.”

"It's no wonder that Long Xiang didn't expand the source of soldiers. He was following the path of elite soldiers. Since he is so provocative to me, let's have fun with him."

Before Cao Cao could finish speaking, Guo Jia got up and walked in front of him, bowed his hands and said, "There are still many doubts in what Han Yuansi said just now. Minggong should analyze it carefully before making a decision."

"What doubt?" Cao Cao narrowed his eyes.

Guo Jia replied: "Not to mention the strange behavior of the soldiers and horses in Hefei, Long Xiang didn't even know General Zhang. Han Zhongjun also thought Xu Chu was very strange. Don't Minggong think it doesn't make sense? In the past, Long Xiang was just a small officer, and he had a rare chance. Going to Lu Bu's banquet, and the top general among them is General Zhang, it is impossible for him not to remember General Zhang, and Han Zhongjun has a deep memory of Xu Chu, and you can see that his martial arts are not right, which means there is something wrong."

Cao Cao asked: "What does Feng Xiao want to say?"

Guo Jia smiled mysteriously: "I want to say that these 5000 people may not be soldiers from Hefei, and the two people in front of today's formation may not be Long Xiang and Xu Chu."
