In the twilight, the sun was setting, Dian Wei and Xu Chu fought for 300 rounds under the city of Handan, during which they changed horses more than 30 times, and the two of them still did not distinguish a winner, but were exhausted.

At this time, on the tower of Handan City, the sound of Mingjin sounded, Dian Wei panted and looked at Xu Chu, put away the double iron halberd, and hugged his fist at Xu Chu and said: "Today, you and I have fought so far, and there is still no winner or loser, but we are overworked, it is better to go back to rest for the time being, and tomorrow, we will fight to the death here again, how about it?" ”

Xu Chu is a cheerful person, and immediately agreed, and said: "A word is a certainty, tomorrow, I will wait for you here on time, if you don't come, you will be a gutless rat!" ”

Dian Wei sneered: "Don't be complacent, tomorrow you must divide your superiority and cut off your head." ”

Xu Chu said: "Don't be ashamed, it's uncertain who will cut whom!" ”

The two of them are equal in force, and no one can help the other, at this time they are just using their tongues.

Dian Wei glared at Xu Chu fiercely, turned the horse's head and was about to retreat to Handan City, just took two steps forward, Dian Wei stopped again, turned his head and said to Xu Chu: "If the two of us are not our own masters, we will definitely become very good friends......

Xu Chu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled knowingly.

As the saying goes, if you don't fight, you don't know each other, today's battle, Xu Chu is playing heartily, and he has never had such a happy feeling.

The master is lonely, and having Dian Wei as an opponent may not be a bad thing, Xu Chu is in the same mood as Dian Wei at this time, heroes cherish heroes!

Xu Chu looked at Dian Wei's distant back, and asked, "You just left like this." Aren't you afraid that I will shoot you with a cold arrow in your back? ”

Dian Wei said: "If you want to release cold arrows." You put it a long time ago. Why wait until now? ”

In fact, when Xu Chu and Dian Wei fought until noon, while they were resting, Lu Meng suggested to Xu Chu to shoot Dian Wei with a cold arrow.

However, Xu Chu did not agree, and reprimanded Lu Meng, believing that if he did so, he would lose his basic faith.

If people have no faith, they will not stand, and if there is no faith, the country will decline!

In ancient times, the word faith was more important than life. Although Xu Chu doesn't read much, he attaches great importance to faith and will never do anything treacherous.

He single-handedly played Dian Wei today, it was a one-on-one competition, and no one else could participate, even if he died in the hands of Dian Wei, it could only show that his skills were not as good as others, although he had no regrets in death.

But if Xu Chu shot Dian Wei with a cold arrow, even if he won, he would not be able to win. It will be spurned by the rest of the people.

Xu Chu can't do such a thing. I don't bother to do it!

After this battle, Xu Chu seems to have found a confidant, like a boya meeting a child, this feeling is not understood by ordinary people.

For Xu Chu, it is enough to have a confidant in life.

What makes Xu Chu distressed is that this Dian Wei is in the enemy camp, and although he feels that Dian Wei is like his confidant, he can't show it.

Seeing Dian Wei go away, Xu Chu also turned his horse's head, walked straight back to the camp, and ordered: "Retreat five miles, and come back tomorrow to fight Dian Wei to the death." ”

Lu Meng said: "General, if you don't kill Dian Wei today, I'm afraid that there will be endless troubles in the future." And tomorrow's army of the regent is coming, and it is impossible to fight against Dian Wei like this. The general is the vanguard, but he has not made an inch, it is better to let the last general go and shoot Dian Wei, all this responsibility will be borne by the last general, and the general will definitely not be implicated! ”

After speaking, Lu Meng took out his bow and arrows, and was about to ride out of the horse, but was stopped by Xu Chu: "The secret arrow hurts people, he is not a hero, even if he can really kill Dian Wei, it is not a victory." This time the pioneer is me, whether I make meritorious contributions or not, it has nothing to do with you! ”

Lu Meng hurriedly retorted: "General, the last general knows that you put faith and righteousness first, but Dian Wei is strong in martial arts, and it is extremely difficult to deal with, if you can't shoot him today, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles in the future." Besides, this is a battlefield, not a gladiatorial arena, as long as you can defeat the opponent, no matter what means he uses, even if it is a bad move, in order to achieve victory, you must do everything, war is deceitful, there is no right and wrong, but there is only one truth that remains unchanged through the ages, that is, the victor, the prince, the loser! ”

Xu Chu frowned, speechless at Lu Meng's rebuttal. Although he can't talk about Lu Meng, he is a pioneer after all, a tiger general, no matter what point he is, his status is far higher than Lu Meng.

As the so-called official level crushes people to death, Xu Chu didn't want to see the confidant he just found die like this, so he said angrily: "Enough!" Are you a pioneer or am I a pioneer? Whatever I say is what it is, and if I dare to say more, I will not be forgiven! Withdrawal! ”

Lu Meng looked at Dian Wei's figure and walked farther and farther, and after riding his horse across the suspension bridge, the suspension bridge rose up, covering Dian Wei's entire figure.

"Alas!" Lu Meng sighed unwillingly, and said helplessly: "The general has an order, retreat five miles!" ”

After speaking, Lu Meng turned the horse's head and left gloomily under the rays of the setting sun.

Xu Chu looked at Lu Meng's back, and secretly thought in his heart: "This person is young and ruthless, but it's a pity that he is too eager for quick success, and with a little training, over time, he will definitely become a general who is in charge of himself...... It seems that the regent is very important to him, otherwise, he would not have been allowed to join the army......"

The Han army retreated five miles and rested in a forest, and the battle between Xu Chu and Dian Wei during the day also became the talk of many soldiers.

……

After a day of fierce fighting, Dian Wei dragged his tired body back to Handan City, just out of the door, he and Cao Hong met head-on, the streets in the city were also a mess, and the whole city was quiet.

It wasn't until Cao Hong told Dian Wei that he was going to withdraw the army, and Dian Wei knew what was going on in the city, and the people in the entire Handan City disappeared without a trace in one day, leaving only Cao Hong and more than 300 people at the south gate, and at this time, Cao Hong and others were ready to retreat.

So, Cao Hong asked Dian Wei to change a horse, and then quickly left Handan City with Dian Wei and the three hundred soldiers, and the soldiers on the city wall were all scarecrows in Cao Jun's clothes that Cao Hong secretly changed, which played a role in confusing the enemy.

After Dian Wei left Handan City, he was not very happy in his heart, this time, he was only afraid that he would lose his trust in Xu Chu, but the lord had an order, and he had to obey it, it was really a dilemma of loyalty and righteousness.

Cao's army all withdrew from Handan City, and Cao Hong, Dian Wei and others rode horses and walked very fast, walking about thirty miles in the northwest direction before catching up with Cao Cao's army.

Cao Cao's army was all scattered on the periphery of the ranks, and the people in Handan City formed a long procession, which slowly moved northwest under the escort of Cao's soldiers.

Cao Hong took Dian Wei and others all the way to run wildly, and rushed for more than 20 miles, only then did he catch up with Cao Cao, and everyone joined forces and stepped up the march.

However, because he brought the people with him, which seriously hindered the advance of the army, Xu You suggested that Cao Cao choose an elite army to go first, and when Cao Cao arrived in Jinyang, he might be able to stabilize the situation in the city.

So, Cao Cao listened to Xu You's advice, led Xu You, Cao Hong, Dian Wei and others to leave first, and selected 3,000 cavalry, and rushed to Jinyang to rescue, and let Xun Yu, Xun Chen and others be responsible for leading those people to Jinyang, and spread the news that Zhang Yan was going to slaughter the city along the way, so that the people could go with them to annex the state.

……

As soon as it was dawn the next day, Xu Chu got up early in the morning, and after a simple breakfast, he rushed towards Handan City with his people, preparing to fight Dian Wei again.

However, when Xu Chu came to Handan City, no matter how he shouted, there was no movement in Handan City.

At this time, a scout galloped on a fast horse and immediately informed Xu Chu of the imminent arrival of Zhang Yan's army.

So, Xu Chu took someone to greet Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan led Zhang Liao, Gan Ning and other cavalry, first came to the city of Handan, and Xu Chu became one, seeing that there were many soldiers on the city of Handan, but there was no movement, so he asked Xu Chu about the situation here.

Xu Chu truthfully told him what he was doing under Handan City, Zhang Yan didn't say anything, so he asked Xu Chu to continue to fight here, and he took Zhang Liao, Gan Ning and others to inspect Handan City to see if there was anything conducive to attacking.

Zhang Yan, Zhang Liao, Gan Ning and others rode their horses and galloped, when the group came to the north gate of Handan City, they saw that the suspension bridge of the north gate was erected on the moat, and the gate of the north gate was also open, except for some military flags on the city wall, there was not a single soldier in sight.

When the group came to the north gate, Zhang Yan reined in his horse and stood there looking into the open north gate, but when he saw that the streets in the city were in a mess, and the mess was scattered all over the place, he became suspicious.

"Regent, Handan City seems to be an empty city...... Zhang Liao whispered to Zhang Yan after seeing it.

Of course, Zhang Yan could see that this city was very similar to an empty city, but he was worried that this was Cao Cao's trick, so he deliberately set up an empty city plan to fool him, and then jumped in, ambushed, and annihilated.

That's what Zhang Yan thinks, but what the hell is going on must be investigated.

So, Zhang Yan sent a soldier and asked him to ride into the city to find out.

The soldier rode a fast horse and rode into the city without hesitation, and after a gallop in Handan City, he came to the gate of the city again, and shouted at Zhang Yan: "The regent of Qiyu is indeed an empty city, and there is not even a person in it!" ”

Zhang Yan felt that this soldier was not careful enough, so he said: "Go deeper and probe, don't rush to conclusions!" ”

"Whoa!"

After about a quarter of an hour, the soldier appeared at the gate of the city again and said to Zhang Yan: "Regent, this is indeed an empty city! People don't know where they're going! (To be continued......)
