A word, an arrow and a corpse, Li Xuanba's seemingly nonsense moves, and Luo Shixin's unreasonable arrow made the Wagang thieves afraid and did not dare to get too close to Luoyang City. After 300 steps, their invective was as thin as a mosquito and a fly, and it could no longer make the soldiers in Luoyang irritable.

The morale of Luoyang's side was greatly boosted, and Liu Changgong felt that he should take advantage of the victory to pursue, so he persuaded Yuan Wendu and sent Luo Shixin out of the city to fight in order to severely defeat the spirit of the Wagang thieves. Although there are some grievances between Liu Changgong and Li Xuanba, it is undeniable that Liu Changgong's suggestion is very reasonable. Therefore, Yuan Wendu hesitated for a moment, and then sent someone to invite Li Xuanba to the city.

"Lord Li, the thief army is in full swing, I want to invite General Luo to go out of the city to fight, I wonder if Lord Li can agree?" When Li Xuanba came up, Yuan Wen arched his hand and said. Li Xuanba's age makes it easy for people to ignore his official position, Xingyang Tongshou is from the third grade, and Yuan Wendu is so polite, which can be regarded as interesting.

Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling man, Li Xuanba returned the salute and replied in a low voice: "Don't hide it from Lord Yuan, Xuanba has this intention, but it was just because of the face of the generals before, so it was not easy to mention it." ”

Yuan Wendu smiled bitterly, and secretly said that the faces of these guards in Luoyang had already been humiliated by the thief Xu Shiji.

Li Xuanba was about to give an order, but Pei Yuanqing bowed down first and said, "My lord, the last general will ask for battle." Luo Shixin looked at him a little unhappily, but didn't say anything.

Yuan Wendu saw that Pei Yuanqing was tall, his eyes were sharp, and he had a domineering spirit, so he said with a smile: "The enemy general under the city is just a bait, and it is not difficult to take his head, do you understand what this official means?" ”

The defenders of Luoyang, who are really afraid are Xu Shiji and others. The court can choose to avoid fighting, so that although it loses some face, it is not a big problem, if it chooses to fight, then the two sides will inevitably fight to the death, and then close the door at that time, it will be equivalent to admitting defeat.

Pei Yuanqing didn't answer Yuan Wendu's words, he still bowed down and waited, which made Yuan Wendu a little embarrassed, Li Xuanba hurriedly said to Pei Yuanqing: "If you want to go, go ahead." ”

The people who knew Pei Yuanqing's identity couldn't help but show a surprised expression, Yuan Wendu and the others showed surprise on their faces, and began to guess Pei Yuanqing's identity, Pei Yuanqing himself was also stunned, and then bowed a little lower, saluted and left.

Li Xuanba acted as if nothing had happened, with a hint of apology, and said to Yuan Wendu: "Feiyi doesn't understand etiquette, and I hope adults don't take it to heart." ”

Yuan Wendu shook his head with a smile and said, "I didn't expect that an entourage beside Master Li had such courage, which is really enviable." However, the name Feiyi is a bit ear-scratching. Speaking of which, Yuan Wendu still felt that Pei Yuanqing was not famous, and he was afraid that he would not be able to defeat the strong generals in Wagang.

Li Xuanba smiled, walked to the edge of the city, and looked into the distance. He seems to be calm, but in fact, he doesn't have much confidence in his heart.

"Childe, you're taking too much risk like this." Fang Xuanling walked up to Li Xuanba and said softly.

"Those who should go, will leave after all, and those who want to stay will not bear me." Li Xuanba said casually: "It's better to let him make his own choice than to be on guard all the time." Fang Xuanling was silent when he heard this, and understood Li Xuanba's intentions.

Pei Yuanqing defected to Xingyang, it was a helpless move, this time he asked for orders to fight, it may be to repay Li Xuanba's kindness in taking him in, it may be that he figured out some things and defected to his father, or it may be to get credit and show his skills, so that the court will not blame the past and reuse him.

The city gate slowly opened, Yuan Wendu ordered people to put down the drawbridge, Pei Yuanqing took more than ten horsemen and did not look back, and went straight to the other side of the moat. The more than ten horsemen were Pei Yuanqing's entourage, all wearing the most ordinary soldier clothes at this time, and they still couldn't hide the murderous aura on their bodies, and Pei Yuanqing's dress was even more conspicuous, just a military uniform.

The general of the Wagang thieves didn't expect that Luoyang would really dare to send people out of the city to fight, and the people sent out would look down on him so much that he didn't even wear armor, he sneered, ignored a few guards, and patted his horse to meet Pei Yuanqing.

The thief will not only be murderous at this time, but also carry a lot of anger. Why are so many people calling for battle, and you don't dare to fight, but if I come out and shout a few times, you will send a guy who looks like a servant out?

Pei Yuanqing didn't think about these problems, he just felt that it was too wasteful of time to change clothes, and even the weapon was borrowed from Luo Shixin's Xuanming gun.

Luo Shixin looked at Pei Yuanqing's majestic appearance in the city, and said in his belly: Brother Pei is really cautious, in order to avenge himself for borrowing his bow, he actually took the initiative to ask for help.

It can be seen that the thinking of honest people is indeed different from ordinary people.

Li Xuanba's expression was very calm, he didn't care about Pei Yuanqing's win or loss, and even his eyes were in a state of detachment, obviously thinking about other things.

Yuanwendu is different. When Pei Yuanqing went out of the city, they began to be anxious, when Pei Yuanqing crossed the river, they faintly regretted that they should not take the risk, when Pei Yuanqing and the thieves of Navagang fought, they did not have time to show worry, and they began to be confused. It wasn't until a soldier cheered that they were convinced that there was no dazzle, and the retinue named "Feiyi" really cut off one of the enemy's generals in one round.

Everyone began to praise Pei Yuanqing's ability, and at the same time cast envious and awe-inspiring glances at Li Xuanba. On the other hand, Li Xuanba, he just exhaled lightly and relaxed a little.

In any case, Pei Yuanqing did not defect to the Wagang thieves, which is a happy thing for Li Xuanba.

Pei Yuanqing killed the Wagang thief general, picked up the thief's head with a spear, suddenly realized something, looked back, but the distance was too far, he couldn't see whether Luo Shixin looked unhappy at all. He thought about it, but after all, he threw the thief's head into the distance with a flick of his spear, and never looked at it again.

The Wagang thieves sent several more generals, all of whom died in Pei Yuanqing's move. Luoyang's war drums were beating loudly, as if announcing good news to the people of the city.

Although human life is like a mustard in the troubled times, Wagang still doesn't want to see the soldiers die in vain, and the most important thing is that this kind of death affects morale too much, so Li Mi had to send Xu Shiji and others.

Xu Shiji rode his horse and rushed over, and when he saw that the person who came was not Luo Shixin, he looked very surprised, and said in a deep voice: "Who is the enemy general, report your name." ”

"Pei Yuanqing." Pei Yuanqing said word by word, his expression became solemn, he had been killed for a long time, and he could naturally feel the strength of Xu Shiji and others. If there is only one Xu Shiji, Pei Yuanqing may not care too much, the key is that Shan Xiongxin, Cheng Yanjin and others are pressing behind Xu Shiji.

"The Duke of Hedong County obeyed the mandate of heaven and defected to the Duke of Wei, why did you bother to help the abuse?" Xu Shiji showed his hand to the sky and persuaded: "With your ability, as long as you defect to Wagang, you will definitely be crowned a general, how can you become a military general in front of the battle?" ”

"Seeing that you also have some identities, please go back and tell my father that Yuanqing has found a good master, so you don't have to worry about him." Pei Yuanqing knew that he had no chance to kill the person in front of him, and he was worried that the Wagang thieves would set up an ambush, so he arched his hand and said: "He will face each other with swords every day, please don't show mercy to him." With that, he turned his horse's head and galloped back to the city.

Xu Shiji did have the idea of leaving Pei Yuanqing, but he didn't expect Pei Yuanqing to be so alert, and he knew that he couldn't chase after him, so he had no choice but to return to the camp and inform Li Mi and Pei Renji of the matter.
