When Xiahou Yuan fled to Yuancheng with 5,000 remnants, Xu Chu was already wearing heavy armor and personally kicked the city four times.

Xu Chu never expected that Yuancheng, which was defended by 5,000 people, would become a hard bone, and his 20,000 army would attack him for five days, but it was only a casualty and did not achieve the result of breaking the city.

The endless longbows and arrows on the city made their army suffer heavy casualties, the catapults on the city made it difficult for their army, and the countless city defense equipment on the city made their soldiers cringe, Xu Chu personally put on heavy armor and kicked the city four times, obviously he had personally slashed and killed the enemy's guards, according to reason, in the case of a group of dragons without a leader, the enemy should be defeated.

However, the result was unexpected, when he personally killed the guard and cut down his flag, another flag was erected, and then a general shouted again and took command of the defense.

He was hacked to death again, and his banner was cut down, but alas, another banner was erected on the city gate, and another general stood up and shouted for a fierce battle.

Xu Chu was brave, but he was eventually squeezed down by the enemy, yes, he was squeezed down, those defenders couldn't fight Xu Chu, so they used human lives to consume his strength, until he was exhausted, could no longer slash and slash, and had to be squeezed off the city wall by the enemy.

After resting in the city for a while, Xu Chu kicked the city again and slashed the enemy leader again, but in the next step, the previous plot was staged again, and the enemy continued to have successive soldiers to take over the command, and the defenders went forward to fight him desperately, and finally let him jump off the city wall again exhausted.

As the fourth thing happened, this made Xu Chu feel the frustration he had never felt since he joined the army, a kind of powerlessness and despair for dominating the world.

This is just a group of young and strong defenders of the common people trained by Lu Peng, and they have such a fierce spirit of not being afraid of death, so what will be Lu Peng's other real soldiers?

If all the soldiers and people of Lu Peng are so fierce and not afraid of death, then how many lives of Cao soldiers are needed to take Lu Peng's three states? If you continue to fight like this one by one, then you doubt that in your lifetime, when you die peacefully, will you still see Cao Jun unify the north?

This is an impossible feat, this is the judgment that Xu Chu has reached now.

"General, let's coerce the people and drive them to attack the city, doesn't the Lu family army love the people, then let their people face them and see what the Lu family army defending the city should do." The adjutant general suggested to Xu Chu.

This is a method that everyone else is doing, and Jia Xu, who attacked Dongyang, has already sent news that the way he can fight Dongyang is to drive the people to attack the city and force the defender to kill himself at the head of the city.

But Xu Chu rejected this suggestion, when Jia Xu came with a military order and ordered him to do so, Xu Chu refused this military order without hesitation, and when the deputy general made this suggestion again this time, Xu Chu picked up his sledgehammer and directly smashed this inhuman bastard.

Xu Chu is rude, but Xu Chu still has a righteous heart, all rude people, in fact, his heart is weak and benevolent, Xu Chu is especially so, not to mention that Jia Xu took a military order to force Xu Chu to coerce the people to attack the city, he refused, even if Cao Cao forced him with a military order, he would rather commit suicide on the spot, and would never carry out this order.

The life and death of the soldiers is because the soldiers chose this profession, this is the duty, the people need to be protected, even if they can't be protected, they can't be slaughtered, they are the strong, and it is the shame of the strong to slaughter the weak with a strong man. This is Xu Chu's simple mentality.

And when Xiahou Yuan fled in embarrassment, Xu Chu was drinking with a big bowl, cutting a piece of half-baked meat with a war knife, he needed to recover his strength, and he was ready to go to the city again.

"What? Gao Gan appeared on the battlefield? He has 20,000 horsemen? Hearing the news, the wine bowl in Xu Chu's hand fell to the ground.

"This is what I have confirmed, and it is definitely not that I lied about the military situation in order to shirk my defeat."

Xu Chu stood up and paced anxiously: "Lao Xia, I definitely didn't mean that you falsely reported the military situation, I was worried that this sudden extra enemy would cause harm to our entire strategy." ”

"yes." Xiahou Yuan picked up Xu Chu's big knife and cut a piece of meat and chewed it, he was also worried: "Originally, on such a large scale of the battlefield, the other party had an extra 10,000 or 20,000 horses, which had no effect on the entire battle situation, but now the situation is different, because none of us expected that the garrison of the Lu family army could have such tenacious combat effectiveness, and the five thousand defenders made me suffer heavy losses, so they dragged me down, let Gao Gan copy my back road, let me be defeated and flee, you face five thousand defenders, and go into battle in person, There is still nothing to do about Yuancheng, if every city is like this, then the high-ranking cadres outside here are our biggest threat, and when the time comes, he will give us a way to copy the back road, and our army will be in danger. ”

"Gao Gan, a famous general in Hebei, how could he not see such a truth, after you come, he will definitely follow, now, my army is in danger." Xu Chu immediately made such a correct judgment.

"General Xu Chu, what do you think we should do?" Now that Xiahou Yuan is a defeated army, he can't put forward any ideas here, everyone is at the same level, if he talks nonsense, the consequences will be serious.

Xu Chu lowered his head and thought for a while, and stomped his foot fiercely: "Yuancheng, we won't fight, immediately retreat to the fortress of a big family behind us, and then you and I will merge and drag Gao Gan here, as long as he is dragged down, it is equivalent to relieving the worries of all other roads." ”

Xiahou Yuan clapped his hands: "It's exactly this method, I'm still afraid that Lao Xu won't want to listen to me, you still do it, now it's okay, with one of us here, drag Gao Gan, and the other five will be able to continue to fight without worries." Then solemnly advised: "You don't directly fight with Gao Gan, as long as you use the terrain of the fortress and drag Gao Gan, it is equivalent to solving the worries of the other five route armies, you are the first great achievement, remember, remember." ”

Xu Chu gave Xiahou Yuan a punch: "You underestimate me too much, I still understand this truth, do you think I am really a reckless man." Then he said: "You hand over your five thousand brothers to me, I will drag Gao Gan, and then you go to Mr. Jia Xu, first, to report to him the emergency situation here, and second, you to help Mr. attack Xiaguan Tao." Then please don't go north, turn around, and join me to annihilate Gao Gan inside and outside. ”

Xiahou Yuan immediately nodded in agreement, and after eating and drinking, he said goodbye to Xu Chu, and then rode alone and rushed directly to the Jia Xu military camp in Guantao to report the enemy situation.
