Chapter 442: The Gap Between Ideals and Reality
Xu Chu judged slightly, and knew that the enemy's ambush was from the top of the hill, although there was such a big change when he carried out his plan, but Xu Chu was not worried, he had very strong confidence in his own ability, not to mention that even if Zhao Yun was powerful, how many soldiers could he take out to ambush him?
Xu Chu, who reacted, not only did not flinch in the slightest under this rain of arrows, but led his soldiers to rush directly to the hill against the rain of arrows.
At this time, at the top of the hill with the best view, Liu Feng and Zhou Yu observed the situation under the hill with cold faces, and Wei Yan led a group of flying feather guards to protect Liu Feng's surroundings.
"Lord, Xu Chu is very brave here, why don't I go and fight him!" Wei Yan looked at Xu Chu, who was in the lead under the light of the torches of all the soldiers and soldiers, like a god of war possession, he was itching, and couldn't help but look at Liu Feng and ask for instructions.
Liu Feng also stared at Xu Chu tightly in his eyes, then glanced at Wei Yan, who looked eager, shook his head and said, "How sure are you that you can kill Xu Chu on this hill?" ”
"This ......" Liu Feng's fluttering words were like a basin of cold water poured on Wei Yan's head, so that Wei Yan didn't know what kind of language to use to answer for a while, Xu Chu's ability, Wei Yan also saw it in Dangyang back then, and Xu Chu appeared in front of him again at this time, but suddenly inspired his pride in fighting with the master, but killing Xu Chu on this hill, Wei Yan was self-aware, in Xu Chu's hands, if he said self-preservation, Wei Yan should be no big problem at this time, But it was difficult for the two Wei Yan to kill Xu Chu on this hill.
"The subordinates are incompetent, they can't kill Xu Chu......" After holding back for a long time, Wei Yan could only admit the gap between himself and Xu Chu in frustration, and it was difficult to hide the deep loss between his words.
Liu Feng looked at Wei Yan's deflated expression, and couldn't help but show a look of laughter, and then said: "Wen Chang doesn't have to be like this, even if you and I join forces to go down the mountain, we can't kill Xu Chu on the hill at this time, so I don't mean to blame you, but to pass on a truth, that is, instead of waiting for us to go down the mountain, we can't kill Xu Chu, but it exposes that I have arrived in Nanyang, it is better for me to command the sergeants under my command to trap Xu Chu here for the time being, he is in the light, and I am waiting in the dark, He can slowly consume the troops in his hands, and after a few hours, the battle in Zilong City will have a result, at that time, Xu Chu found that everything was not according to the development in his heart, and the frustration of his confidence can be imagined, if so, the 80,000 vanguard army of Wei State should be exhausted, and it will not be a good mood to pass on to Yang Xiu behind him, this result is what I want to give him, otherwise Xu Chu will find that I have arrived in Nanyang, and I will inevitably retreat and rescue Xu Huang, It didn't do him any good to thwart his spirit. ”
After Liu Feng patiently explained his thoughts to Wei Yan behind him, Wei Yan smiled, what Liu Feng thought in his heart was that he had already taken into account any of Xu Chu's actions, and even Zhou Yu was bowing his head again and again.
Before coming here, they did not formulate a specific strategy after encountering the enemy, because whether Xu Chu and Xu Huang would divide their troops, which side would pass on this side, Liu Feng did not think of in advance, he only knew that once the troops were divided, this was the only way, and if they did not divide the troops, they would be dumplings made by Liu Feng and Zhou Yu behind them when they attacked the city with all their might, Liu Feng's strategy will always be able to cope with all kinds of changes in the enemy, this is also the place where Zhou Yu admires Liu Feng the most, some of Liu Feng's ideas, Even if he did, he had to be convinced.
Looking at Xu Chu who was fighting like a trapped beast on the hillside, Zhou Yu suddenly felt how helpless he was. Indeed, this is the strength of Liu Feng to get to this day, almost the first military general in the Central Plains, just on such a small hill, I don't know where to go......
At this time, Xu Chu, after fighting for more than half an hour, was a little confused in his heart, and there were not many soldiers under Liu Feng's command who were killed by his broadsword, but he did not see Zhao Yun, nor did he see any generals he was familiar with, and even a partial general had never fallen into his hands, and the sergeants he faced with this wave of soldiers attacking him were so organized and organized.
More importantly, Xu Chu vaguely felt in his heart that the number of this ambush army was not less than the 40,000 army he brought with him, which made him doubt in his heart and at the same time have a little more hope, the ambush soldiers are all here, and the guards in the city must be empty. Thinking of this layer, he worked harder to fight here, and what he did was naturally to give Xu Huang more time, and the result he wanted to achieve was that by the time he arrived at the city, the defenders in the city had been replaced by Xu Huang......
With the support of such an idea, Xu Chu fought with Liu Feng's army on the hill for more than an hour, although Liu Feng's army was condescending, wave after wave, but Xu Chu still kept resisting.
Finally, when he heard the news that the damage of his people had far exceeded 10,000, he was angry in his heart, and finally made an order to retreat, such a loss obviously made him a little unexpected, and how did he know that the seemingly unorganized enemy troops coming down from the mountain in the dark night were carefully arranged by Liu Feng and Zhou Yu, and the excellent armor and protection, coupled with condescending, almost exchanged the smallest loss for a very large casualty of the enemy. In the darkness, where could Xu Chu, who had already killed the red-eyed Xu Chu, notice this.
Seeing that Xu Chu finally led the army back to the bottom of the hill like a tide, Liu Feng also waved his hand, so that the sergeants under his command should not pursue, the task of this battle, he has already completed, and the next thing should be a matter of course.
After forcibly leaving behind the fact that he had lost more than 10,000 soldiers, Xu Chu could only lead the army to rush to Zhiwan City, Nanyang County, hoping that he could see a news he wanted to see when the soldiers came to the city.
Half an hour later, Xu Chu confirmed that he got rid of the pursuers and walked out of the huge hill, but after gradually approaching Wancheng, the scene in front of him made his heart very cold, looking from a distance, the west gate of Wancheng was in flames, obviously there was a very tragic offensive and defensive battle, such a scene, and Xu Chu wanted to see in his heart but there was too much gap.
