No one will take the initiative to find death, so when Yang Chou's army thought of Cao Xing's army's arrow-free archery skills, they were all frightened, and they couldn't care so much anymore, they dropped their weapons, and even began to turn around and run away, since there was one person running, then there was a second and third, and then the soldiers who charged on the front line began to retreat all.

Yang Chou saw this scene, scolded in the back, he took out his sword and killed several people in a row, but he couldn't stop the trend of retreating at all, seeing this, not only Yang Chou, but even the officers next to him, one by one, were dumbfounded, according to common sense, since there has been chaos in the city, it should lead to unstable morale, and it should not be a problem to take the city in one go, this is a very obvious reason, but why is this happening.

Thinking about it, there may be only one explanation for this, that is, the current Cao Xing's army, not only did not have a military spirit to disperse, but the morale was high, why the morale was high, this point is incomprehensible, and Zheng Gu is standing there with a confused face, I don't know why.

And at this moment, Cao Xuan stood at the head of the city, looking at this scene with a smile, he turned around and looked at the city, although at this moment although the soldiers who fought on the city tower were all his soldiers, but there were also people coming and going, only to see these people, even if they did not directly participate in the battle, but they were still dragging the rolling stones and wood, constantly transporting them to the city, in order to assist the soldiers defending the city.

On that day, Zheng Gu spread rumors in the city, saying that Cao Xing had become a prisoner of the imperial court, and it would not be long before the imperial army suppressed it, and everyone was going to die.

When the people heard the news for the first time, they were naturally afraid in their hearts, after all, everyone was afraid of death, but soon someone thought that since the group of people outside didn't let them live, then what else did they have to be afraid of, and they fought directly with the group of people outside.

Staying under Cao Xing's rule, they enjoy a series of benefits brought by Cao Xing, those who were not full of food in the past can now have enough food and clothing, and those who lived a hard life in the past are now living a peaceful life.

Such a good county guard could not be found in the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, why did the court kill such a person? It's simply an injustice of heaven, when they came here, the people were excited, and they all mustered up their courage, walked on the street, and came to the gate of Cao Xing's temporary residence, and loudly asked Cao Xing, issued them weapons, issued them armor, and they wanted to fight on the battlefield with Cao Xing.

When Cao Xuan heard the news, he hurriedly came out to appease everyone, he told the people that these were just rumors, and the imperial court would not take care of the things here at all, the reason why this war happened, it was all because some people were unhappy with him, and a series of policies promulgated by him Cao Xing had seriously touched the interests of those powerful people in the family, so it was the birth of this war, but Cao Xing also made everyone believe that Cao Xing dared to be here today, and he must have full confidence that all the enemies who came from outside would be repulsed.

He told the people not to worry, go back and live in peace, and the affairs here can be handled by him Cao Xing alone, but after the people heard this, they were even more unrelenting, they heard it, Cao Xuan did not let them go to the battlefield, they could not help Cao Xuan, so the group became a little angry.

Therefore, those spies hidden in the city will report to Yang Chou and others outside, and now the people in the city are about to rush into the gate of Cao Xing's mansion, and Cao Xing is in danger, but they don't know why the people want to do this, because they also want to fight with Cao Xing to protect their interests and keep their homes.

In the end, Cao Xing took a compromise method, that is, to let the people help transport materials, which can be regarded as a contribution, so in the end, today's scene of the military and the people working together, it is naturally a great boost in the morale of the army, Yang Chou and others don't want to get closer.

Needless to say, when the evening came, Mr. Yang left a full 8,000 corpses on the battlefield, and returned with a feather, just after these two battles, Yang Chou had already lost more than 10,000 troops, which can be said to be a serious loss of troops, and the next thing was easy to do, Cao Xing did not take the initiative to attack, so he was consumed here.

Hu Che'er, a militant who saw that Yang Chou's army was in ruins, once took the initiative to ask for an attack, but was rejected by Cao Xing, after all, this Yang Chou is a person sent by the Assassin Shifu, although the military ability is average, but who knows, he will have some other hole cards that have not yet been used, so Cao Xuan adopted a steady and steady tactics, and resolutely will not take the initiative to attack, and secondly, Cao Xuan also set his sights elsewhere, spread out the map, and first looked at the west.

"Kill !!"

A burst tiger's mouth roared out of his mouth, Chen Hu held his Xuanhua axe, and directly ordered his cavalry to charge, and that group of knights, also carrying spears, fearlessly faced Chen Yu's army.

Chen Yu is the Taishou of Xihe County, and the soldiers he accepts are also ordinary soldiers, but the reason why Cao Xing stationed cavalry here is also to hear that there is a shortage of arrows in Xihe County, so Cao Xing arranges all the cavalry here.

But then again, although Chen Yu didn't have many archers under him, other people's infantry and cavalry were not bad at all, so Chen Yu and Chen Hu had a fierce confrontation as soon as they came.

The cavalry on both sides could be seen colliding together like a black flood, and then brilliant sparks erupted in the center, and countless blood spilled into the air.

The battle lasted for a quarter of an hour, the battle in front can be described as extremely tragic, Chen Hu's cavalry on their side, all equipped with Zhongkai Zhongjia, the weapons are naturally better than others, but how can the number of cavalry on the other side be large, it can be said that two and then fight one, so Chen Hu's side is still a little unable to hold on, not long after, a cavalry general from the front defeated, only to see that he is covered in blood, like Chen Hu arched his hand and said.

"General, we can't stand it, let's let my brothers withdraw!"

As soon as Chen Hu heard this, the tiger eyes shouted loudly: "No retreat, no defeat, violators will be killed!" ”

Although the military order is like a mountain, but it is not the enemy of reality, the soldiers on their side have to deal with two, so the trend is getting worse and worse, there are still soldiers in front of them who continue to retreat, seeing here Chen Hu stuck a sword on the ground, and then pulled the officer just now, pointed to the sword on the ground and said: "From now on, you are the overseer, use this sword as the boundary, and those who retreat from this sword will be killed!" ”

The officer was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and felt a little helpless in his heart, Chen Hu seemed to have made up his mind to kill this time, even if his side was in a weak position, he was still resolute and did not retreat.

But soon, he seemed to think of something, Chen Hu asked him to be an overseer, so why did Chen Hu go? He looked at Chen Hu with an incredible look, and then said, "General, you ......"

However, Chen Hu put his Xuanhua axe on the ground: "Leave two hundred overseers, the rest of the soldiers will charge with me, this battle, only allowed to win and not lose, I will take the lead in the charge, if I fall, only my lieutenant will lead, if the lieutenant general falls, it will be led by the centurion, and if the commander falls, it will be commanded by the centurion, until the last person dies, hear no!" ”

Chen Hu's determination to treat death as if he were at home immediately infected many soldiers behind him, and many people's expressions became solemn.

"Kill!" With an earth-shattering shout of killing sounded in Chen Hu's mouth again, the cavalry behind him followed Chen Hu to charge together and support the cavalry in front.

The two armies fought for a whole day, not to mention that Chen Hu was under a lot of pressure, in fact, he also felt very anxious on Chen Yu's side of Xihe County.

He has been here for a week, and when he saw that the other party only had 5,000 soldiers and horses, he wanted to eat the other party directly in one go, so he was fighting every day for a week, and Chen Yu was full of confidence at the beginning to be anxious at the moment.

The reason is nothing else, the five thousand cavalry led by Chen Hu are too strong in combat effectiveness, their will is too strong, that is, they will not retreat, even if one cavalry falls, he will drag another enemy to die with him, this kind of wound for injury and life for life directly made Chen Yu feel quite a headache, so after a week, Chen Yu and Chen Hu and their subordinates can be said to have suffered heavy casualties, but even now, the two armies have not taken advantage of each other, and they are still constantly wandering on this battlefield.

In the end, until dusk, Chen Yu could be seen helplessly giving the order to retreat, because he knew that it was impossible to break through the opponent's defense line today, and on the battlefield, several knights turned over and dismounted, not caring about the injuries on their bodies, and hurriedly went to help Chen Hu, who was already half-kneeling on the ground at this moment.

Chen Hu raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar, revealing an extremely wild posture, put the Xuanhua big axe on the ground, and stood up strongly, at this moment his body had been slashed by the enemy more than 20 times, and blood gushed out, but he did not take a step back after all, and did not let the enemy break through his line of defense after all.

At this moment, a doctor came up, and when he saw that Chen Hu was seriously injured, he wanted to ask Chen Hu to hurry back to the barracks, but Chen Hu glared at the doctor: "You don't need to go back to the barracks to lie down, the husband was born between heaven and earth, standing up to the sky, just help me sew up my wound here!" ”

In this way, Chen Hu stood on the battlefield and began to bandage his wounds in front of all his military personnel. The other soldiers were all moved when they saw this scene, and at the same time their eyes became more respectful, this is the general who was born and died with them, and they admired it from the bottom of their hearts.
