Chapter 431 The First Battle
[Today's update has been delivered, and there is another update to make up for yesterday!!]
The next morning, tens of thousands of soldiers and horses appeared outside Wancheng, and the sound of the earth-shaking drums had already shocked the Jingzhou soldiers and horses in Wancheng.
Xu Shu, Huang Zhong and others climbed the tower and saw a piece of darkness under the tower. The rumble generated by the collision of armor between walking was clearly audible, and the battle arrays were closely connected like a rainbow.
And in the front was Cao Ren, as well as the deputy generals Li Dian and Cao Chun. Behind the three people, there were more than a dozen generals in armor. At this time, several people squinted and looked up at the tower.
"Brother, did you order the siege?" Cao Chun's face was cold, and his words were a little anxious.
Seeing that Cao Chun looked like this, Cao Ren couldn't help shaking his head and said, "Zihe, you should be calm and cautious. You must not be confused by the appearance, let alone be influenced by emotions. Even the lord of Wancheng has failed to conquer it several times, and it must not be underestimated. Look, although the number of soldiers on this tower has increased a lot, there is no panic at all. Obviously, I have been prepared for my arrival. Jingzhou is guarded by the city, and it can't be taken.
"Brother, order it directly. I'll listen to you." Cao Chun shook his head, as if he didn't listen much about Cao Ren's teachings.
"Let's explore the reality in the city first." Cao Ren nodded and was obviously used to Cao Chun's behavior: "Zi Ke went forward to call the array and lead the soldiers and horses out of the city."
After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Li Dian: "Manchester City went forward to suppress the array, just in case."
"Good!" Cao Chun nodded better and rushed out of the battle with Li Dian.
"Someone is Cao Chun. Can the rats in the city dare to go out of the city to fight?" Before pulling the horse to stop, Cao Chun's shouts had spread all over the battlefield, and Cao Ren also waved his hand to signal the drums to stop. For a moment, Cao Chun's shouts resounded throughout the audience.
For Cao Chun's call, Xu Shu and others did not pay much attention to it, but looked at the soldiers and horses in the city with great interest: "Cao Chun? I didn't expect that he was the first one to come out? The other one is Li Dian. I didn't expect that Cao Ren would be cautious when he sent two generals at once.
"This Cao Ren ordered the two of them to come and call for a battle. Obviously, he wanted to test the reality in the city, and he ignored it." Huang Zhong nodded and looked coldly at the two people in the city, but ignored it.
"Naturally, it is to explore the truth in the city, but it is not without the intention of deterrence. It happens that General Guan is here, and he can fight against the army." Xu Shu laughed and said that Huang Zhong was indeed not suitable for fighting in this battle, but Guan Yu had long been famous all over the world. Guan Yu's battle could deter the troops and promote the power of Jingzhou.
Hearing Xu Shu's words, Huang Zhong's heart was moved, and then he laughed and turned his head and ordered, "Come on, go and ask General Guan to come here."
Before long, Guan Yu appeared at the gate in a cyan robe and a sword in his hand.
Xu Shu and Huang Zhong came to the bottom of the tower early. When they saw Guan Yu looking at each other and smiling, Xu Shu came forward first and said, "I heard the name of General Guan. Today, the Cao thieves are coming to invade and are powerful. There are two generals calling under the city tower. There is no one who can compete with him in the city for the time being, but it is going to trouble General Guan to go out of the city to fight."
Guan Yu was cold-eyed at Xu Shu's praise. Although he didn't want to fight for Jingzhou, Liu Qi had said before he came that if he wanted to live in Jingzhou, he must make some achievements.
With a cold snort, Guan Yu looked away and looked at the gate: "Open the door."
"Thank you so much, General Guan." Xu Shu arched his hand and nodded to Huang Zhong. Immediately, the gate opened, and Guan Yu led a team of soldiers out of the city.
However, Cao Chun and Li Dian shouted and scolded together again. Seeing that there was no reaction on the tower, they couldn't help but be angry. They thought that Jingzhou would not send people out to fight, and they had the idea of retreating. At this time, when I saw the gate opening, I couldn't help but be very happy. I cursed at the gate opened: "Haha, a group of shrinking turtles are finally willing to show their faces. I think the whole Jingzhou is a group of wastes. A group of people who are afraid of death are so slow to die."
Cao Chun was aggrieved for a long time. Finally, when he saw someone coming out, he was relieved. He was pressing and scolding again, but he was pulled by Li Dian. He couldn't help turning his head and looking at Li Dian. Li Dian looked at the gate with a solemn face, with a strong look of surprise.
Cao Chun couldn't help but be surprised. What did Li Dian see? He actually had such a gaffe. He knew that although Li Dian was a general, he was familiar with the joy and anger of soldiers and horses, and rarely had such a gaffe.
Surprised, Cao Chun turned his head and looked at the city gate, but his eyes couldn't help but widen. He didn't even wear armor. He was only wearing a familiar green robe, which surprised him: "Guan Yu?"
"Well, I didn't expect him to fight in Jingzhou?" Li Dian nodded and calmed down, but his eyes were a little more solemn. Obviously, he had to be cautious about Guan Yu's opponent.
"Hmm?" Guan Yu, who came out of the city, also looked at the two people in surprise. He naturally knew the two people and was quite familiar with them. At the time of Xu Du, he could say that he had a lot of contact with the generals under Cao Cao.
"Yun Chang, are you going to fight for Jingzhou?" Cao Chun straightened his face and said coldly that even Guan Yu just made him a little more cautious.
"Exactly, Guan was ordered to guard this city. We met each other. You'd better retreat." Guan Yu nodded.
"Yun Chang, I heard that Liu Xuande didn't live a good life in Jingzhou. You were also under house arrest by Liu Qi. Why did you work for Liu Qi, but he forced you to fight?" Li Dian stepped forward and asked side by side with Cao Ren.
Guan Yu shook his head. What Liu Qi said was just a transaction, not a coercion: "I have to do whatever I want, but I volunteered to fight, and no one forced me."
"There's nothing to say about it. Now we are each other, and we will try our best to fight." Cao Chun snorted coldly, and waved a long knife in his hand and rushed forward to fight with Guan Yu.
Guan Yu was not polite. He waved the Qinglong Yanyue knife in his hand and fought with Cao Chun without any flaws. However, Cao Chun became more and more brave in the battle, and even forced Guan Yu's long knife back several times.
The two of them come and go, entangled under the tower.
The two fought fiercely for longer and longer. There was a little impatience on Guan Yu's face. Qinglong Yanyue knife slashed Cao Chun to force him back. He sat down and the red rabbit and horse followed Guan Yu, stopping his waist and cutting at Cao Chun.
"Be careful." Seeing that Cao Chun's situation was dangerous, Li Dian shouted, and the long gun in his hand was also stabbed out immediately.
Cao Chun was forced back by Guan Yu with a knife. When he was about to stabilize his body and fight again, he saw Guan Yu's attack following him. He was surprised but not panicked. A attached to the switch feather stopped his waist with a knife, and the long knife in his hand also waved to Guan Yu.
Guan Yu suddenly fell into the attack of Cao Chun and Li Dian. Even Guan Yu couldn't help falling for a while.
With the fierce battle between the three people, the drums in the city and the city were endless, and the sound was deaf and loud. Tens of thousands of soldiers shouted together, and the sound broke through the sky.
