In the evening, the siege battle outside Xujiazhuang finally began to take shape, and the victory or defeat was decided.

After all, the wall fort that is no more than one foot five feet high can not withstand the strong attack of as many as 20,000 Yellow Turban Army for half a day, there are many gaps in the wall, and even two walls have collapsed, and the door is wide open, it is already impossible to resist the attack of the Yellow Turban Army, and the capture of Xujiazhuang is a foregone conclusion.

However, just as Xujiazhuang was about to fall, the Gepi Yellow Turban Army suddenly stopped attacking and reorganized in the wilderness outside the West Gate.

The west gate under the wall of Xujiazhuang was opened, Xu Chu and Xu Ding brothers went out of the city together, rode horses to the front of the battle, and the two rode to face the battle formation of more than 10,000 Yellow Turban Army.

At this moment, Li Li and his party, who had come all the way, quietly rushed to the outskirts of the wilderness outside the west gate of Xujiazhuang, stopped on the slope of a small hill not far away, and were covered by dense woods.

When the group saw the strange formation at the foot of the mountain, they were immediately curious, and they couldn't help but open their eyes wide and look down at the situation on the wilderness. Fortunately, the hill where they were hiding was not far from the West Gate in a straight line, and they could clearly see the faces of the two opposing people at the foot of the mountain, and even hear the conversation between them.

After a little look at the confrontation between the two sides at the foot of the mountain, Li Li focused his eyes on the two burly men at the west gate. When the sturdy man who was nearly nine feet tall and had a waist of ten girth came into view, Li Li's eyes suddenly narrowed slightly, and a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes, and he looked at this person intently.

For the sturdy man in his sight, Li Li didn't need to ask anyone, he knew that this person was the person he was looking for on this trip, Xu Chu and Xu Zhongkang of Qiaoxian County.

For Li Li, after being reborn at the end of the Han Dynasty, there were two people who always lingered in his mind, one of which was Cao Cao. The second is Xu Chu in front of him. Historically, the Li family in Beidi County was finally destroyed by Cao Cao, and the brothers Li Li and Li Xian died under Xu Chu's knife. However, these tragedies occurred four years later, in the third year of Jian'an, that is, in 198 AD.

However, with the rebirth of Li Li and the sudden rise of the army, the situation in the world has changed greatly, and it has long ceased to be the trajectory of history.

Will history repeat itself after rebirth?

In this regard, Li Li can now say with great confidence. Absolutely not!

Because, at this time, Li Li is no longer the "Li Li" in history, not to mention the power he has now and the hundreds of thousands of Xiliang army, his current martial arts alone are not under Xu Chu, or even above Xu Chu. If he fought with Xu Chu and Xu Ding brothers at this time. Even if the Xu brothers joined forces to attack, he was not afraid at all. He can even defeat the Xu brothers head-on. However, this kind of fight is destined to be a very difficult battle. The two sides need to fight for at least hundreds of rounds, and the battle will take place overnight.

In fact, Li Li didn't need to go into battle himself at all now, he only needed to send Huan Fei and Li Zhi'er to attack together, and within a hundred rounds, he could behead the Xu brothers under his horse.

However, none of this is the real purpose of Li Li's trip. Because Xu Chu has not yet defected to Cao Cao's command. There is no enemy of him, so at this time these are just assumptions, and there are unpredictable variables in things.

This variable is just like the strength that Li Li has now, on the surface. He is now the most powerful prince in the world, and he is enough to pacify the world; But the world is impermanent, the future is full of uncertainties, and anything is possible.

Just as in the annals, after Cao Cao successively destroyed Lu Bu, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, he captured Jingzhou and occupied almost half of the world, and pacifying the world was just around the corner. But who would have expected that he would be defeated in the Battle of Chibi, and the good situation would be ruined, and the pace of pacifying the world would come to an abrupt end, and he would not be able to calm the troubled world until his death.

Therefore, the world is like a new chess game, the future is difficult to guess, there are constant variables, and everything is possible.

For example, what is in front of him, does Xu Chu have to belong to Cao Cao?

Liu Xieshang, the son of heaven, was placed in the palm of Li Li's hand, let alone Xu Chuhu!

Li Li came to Yuzhou this time, originally did not plan to recruit military generals, but purely traveled to familiarize himself with the terrain and situation in the Ruhuai area. However, when Li Ru fell ill in the rain, he met Chen Zhi by chance, and received him under his command very smoothly. Chen Zhi's unexpected appearance prompted Li Li to think of Xu Chu in Qiaoxian County, which was not far away. Because Chen Zhi and Xu Chu both held the same position in history, the only difference was that they were loyal to Liu Bei and Cao Cao respectively.

So with the attitude that he might as well give it a try, Li Li led a group of people to come to Xujiazhuang quickly, but happened to encounter the Gepi Yellow Turban Thieves besieging the Xu brothers. But this scene was unexpected by Li Li, which invisibly added many variables to the purpose of his trip, and the fog was so foggy that he couldn't figure it out.

――――――――――――――――――――――

The sunset is slanting, and the red glow dyes the western sky.

The wilderness is quiet, the soldiers are numerous, and the murderous spirit fills the mountains and forests.

Outside the West Gate, in the wilderness.

Xu Ding and Xu Chu reined in their horses and swords, and the two of them rode in the face of tens of thousands of Yellow Turban troops, but they were fearless and calm.

After a moment of silence, He Yi and He Man, the leaders of the Gepi Yellow Turban, rode their horses to the front of the battle, and they were fifty steps away from the Xu brothers, facing each other from afar.

"It's been more than a few months since I said goodbye before, and today I can fight with you two brothers again, He has been looking forward to it for a long time, and I am not very happy. Two brothers are unharmed! ”

In front of the Le Ma formation, under He Yi's rugged appearance, he was full of scholarly atmosphere when he opened his mouth at first glance, giving people a different feeling.

It's no wonder that the He brothers were originally illiterate and poor, and they were outright coarse. However, the two brothers are now also the leaders of the party who commands tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, although they have not read, they can imitate the literati to speak, pretend to be knowledgeable, and talk about masturbation. So He Yi stuck green onions in his pig's nose, mistakenly used the rhetoric of literati friends on the battlefield, and said such nondescript words, which really made the Xu brothers laugh secretly, but they couldn't laugh out loud in person, and it was very hard to hold back.

Illiterate but pretending to be a literate person, this habit is by no means the patent of later generations, and the ancients are even more so.

"Flutter--cluck!"

The Xu brothers at the west gate of the wall fort were forced by the large number of Yellow Turban soldiers, so they didn't dare to laugh at He Yi's remarks on the spot, but Ma Yunluo, who was hiding on the hillside, couldn't help but laugh.

"Shhhh Yunluo quickly silenced, beware of being discovered by them. Turning his head to look at Ma Yunluo, who had a relatively low smile behind him, Li Li whispered to her with a smile on his face. Don't be discovered.

Immediately, Li Li and his entourage held back their laughter and once again focused their eyes on the battlefield in front of the mountain, but when they saw the big man in the Xu brothers, he immediately stepped forward, looked at He Yi with disdain, and snorted coldly: "Hmph! You are just a defeated general under Xu, what kind of face do you have to be ashamed in front of me Xu Chu? Before, you and others have been defeated five times at the hands of our brothers, thinking that God has the virtue of a good life, our brothers have repeatedly shown mercy, why do you come to besiege my Xujiazhuang today? Do you really think that Xu will not dare to kill you two brothers? ”

saw that Xu Chu's face was not good and he was disrespectful. He Yi suddenly felt a great loss of face, her cheeks were dark red, and anger suddenly surged into her head.

Just when He Yi was angry, He Man, who was extremely burly and majestic, rode his horse to the front of the battle and stood opposite Xu Chu without showing weakness. He shouted in a rough voice: "Xu Manzi Hugh has to speak wildly, Tian is shameless!" Ask you. I've fought five times before. Did the other brothers really win? You barbarian just said that my brother is not ashamed, in a certain opinion, it is clear that you allow the barbarian to put gold on his face again!

For more than a year, our two brothers have fought five battles with your Xu brothers, and we will win or lose one battle. At first, you two brothers did win two battles, and our brothers were willing to gamble and lose. According to the pre-war agreement, the troops were dismissed and the truce was not continued, and the attack on your Xujiazhuang was not continued. After three formations, we were evenly matched, and we were tied three times in a row. How could he have been defeated by you? After the war, He Mou saw that our soldiers were many and invincible, so he showed mercy to your Xu Jiazhuang subordinates three times, and led the troops to retreat, so that you and others survived until now!

However, there are no more than three things. Today, we are waiting for the troops to come, and our two brothers will have another battle with your brothers, and we will still win or lose the battle! If you win, according to the previous agreement between the two sides, you will send ten fat oxen and 1,000 stone of grain, and our brother will immediately order the withdrawal of troops without saying a word. If you lose, then don't blame He's subordinates for being ruthless, and Xu Jiazhuang will be removed!

If your brothers have no objection to this, then gossip and go to war! ”

"Wait!" Before He Man's words fell, he saw Xu Chu shouting, and said sharply to He Yi and He Man: "I can't count the previous agreement, and the bet for this battle has to be decided by Xu!" ”

"Humph!" He Yi snorted coldly when he heard this, and said angrily: "Xu Manzi, you are so shameless, you obviously have to make inches!" Our brothers have led tens of thousands of troops to come several times, if it weren't for your brother's extraordinary martial arts, they are still two heroes, and they would have led the troops to level your Xujiazhuang. Today you want to break the previous agreement, well, as you say! To tell you the truth, this time my Gepi Yellow Turban Army poured out of the nest, just to raze your Xujiazhuang to the ground! ”

"Oh?" Xu Chu's eyes widened slightly when he heard this, and he groaned silently, but a strong murderous intent appeared in his eyes, and his expression became cold. In an instant, he was almost so angry that he was eager to take advantage of the He brothers' unpreparedness and kill them on the spot. But this kind of idea is fleeting and obviously unrealistic, from the previous five encounters, Xu Chu knows very well in his heart that if he wants to attack and kill the He brothers by surprise, there is no possibility of succeeding at all.

The two sides have fought five times before, and although the He brothers have not learned advanced martial arts, they are extremely talented and powerful. These two people have experienced a hundred battles and have developed excellent killing skills from actual combat, so although their martial arts are not proficient, they are strong in combat. In addition, they are naturally strong, and there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to suppress the formation, and there are many people at the end, which is very difficult.

In terms of martial arts alone, Xu Chu didn't take He Yi in his eyes at all, even if the three He Yi were tied together, they were not his opponents. However, with the addition of Homan, it is different. He Man is not only tall and burly, but also infinitely powerful and extremely fierce. The most rare thing is that He Manqi is talented, strong when he is strong, with amazing potential, long breath, and extremely long-lasting combat effectiveness.

In other words, in Xu Chu's eyes, He Man is a complete madman. When encountering an ordinary general, He Man can beat him to death with a stick when he raises his hand; If he encounters a first-class general, his own shortcomings in martial arts will be revealed, and if he can't kill his opponent for dozens of rounds, he will become uninterested, uninterested, and listless. However, once he met a strong man like a top general, this guy was like a madman, extremely excited, and a two-zhang long iron rod danced vigorously in his hand, with every move and style natural, and his combat power was extremely strong. Moreover, this fight is long-lasting, the more you fight, the more comfortable it becomes, and after it is completely released, it has a strong combat power that is comparable to that of a mid-level powerhouse of a top general.

Among the repeated fights with the He brothers, He Man likes to fight with Xu Chu the most. Every time he meets Xu Chu, he can quickly get excited, and at first glance it is a powerful killing move, opening and closing. Coincidentally, Xu Chu himself is also a person of infinite strength, strong in martial arts, and hard fighting, and this is He Man's favorite way of fighting. So the two fierce men met together, and often fought in the dark, the sun and the moon were dark, and it was not until finally when both sides were exhausted that they gave up.

It is precisely because of a person with an extremely strange personality like He Man that Xu Chu can easily kill He Yi, but he has never been able to succeed. As a last resort, every time the two sides fought, he could only bring his brother Xu Ding as a helper to join forces to fight with the He brothers.

After more than a year of competition, Xu Chu has always been disdainful of He Yi, but he has a headache for He Man, and there is still an indescribable appreciation in his heart. It's a pity that the two sides are destined to be enemies and can't be friends, otherwise he may form a friendship with He Man, because the two of them have the same smell, they don't know each other, and they are both upright and hot-blooded men.

After a moment of distraction, many distracting thoughts came to Xu Chu's mind, and then he abandoned these unwarranted thoughts and faced the war in front of him. The reason why he wanted to re-enter into the gambling contract just now was because Xujiazhuang had now run out of money and food, and he was unable to fulfill the previous agreement. Therefore, even though he and his eldest brother Xu Ding joined forces to defeat the He brothers, they could not fulfill the agreement to accompany the ploughing cattle and grain, and the He brothers would inevitably be angry and angry, and they would attack Xujiazhuang with troops. If this is the case, it would be meaningless for the two brothers to go out of the city to duel with the He brothers, and they would not be able to resolve the crisis in Xujiazhuang at all.

"Leader He Yi, don't worry, can you let Xu finish speaking?" Seeing He Yi's hideous expression, Xu Chu said loudly.

He Yi glared at Xu Chu angrily, and said coldly with great impatience: "Okay, if you have any ideas, even if you tell me, as for whether our brother agrees or not, it's two words!" ”
