Cao Zhi knew very well that Guo Huai had already raised troops to attack Longxi since the day he wrote to him, and he basically had no chance to get any reinforcements at this moment.

If you want to survive, or even defend Wudu, you can only rely on yourself.

Liao Hua launched a one-day attack on Wudu City, but after failing to break through Wudu City, it was temporarily stopped.

Cao Zhi hurriedly came to Qiangrui to discuss how to break the enemy.

But Qiangrui said angrily to Cao Zhi: "If I knew that there would be today's situation, this king should not have listened to Cao Changshi's words, and he would not be in such a prison now." ”

Cao Zhi could only say authoritatively: "Why is King Qiangrui panicking, then Liao Hua is unknown in Shu Han, why should you be afraid of this person?" ”

Qiangrui immediately retorted:

"Who said that Liao Hua's nationality is unknown? When the king was in Shu Han, he had heard that General Liao Hua, this person was a young man from the Yellow Turban, and after the Yellow Turban subsided, he followed Guan Yu to fight in the south and the north, and made countless achievements. After Lu Meng crossed the river in white and broke Jingzhou, he was forced to surrender to Wu, but he used a trick to confuse Eastern Wu, and traveled west with his mother day and night to Shu Han. ”

Later, he followed Liu Bei to participate in the Battle of Yiling, and after Liu Bei's death, he also followed Zhuge Liang on several Northern Expeditions, a veteran who has fought on the battlefield for most of his life since he was a teenager, how can he be a lonely and unknown person? Moreover, the strength of Shu Han is far superior to our army, and this military capital is afraid that it is not easy to defend! ”

After listening to Qiang Rui's words, Cao Zhi sighed a little, he didn't expect Liao Hua to be a veteran of the battlefield who had fought for most of his life, but such a veteran, and the love of returning to Han for thousands of miles here, still did not become a general in charge alone, which shows that this person's ability is really limited.

So Cao Zhi was a little relieved, and said to Qiangrui: "If according to what King Qiangrui said, this person has been active on the battlefield since the Yellow Turban, then he is at least over sixty years old at this moment, so what is there to fear from such a veteran?" I have long heard that King Qiangrui is strong in martial arts, why don't you go out of the city to fight with him alone, and capture Liao Hua alive before the battle? ”

Qiang Rui smiled bitterly: "Although Liao Hua is old, it is said that his martial arts are good, if he loses the battle before the battle, won't it make people laugh?" ”

Cao Zhi smiled and said to Qiangrui: "Could it be that King Qiangrui is afraid of a bad old man in Liaohua, and he still doesn't dare to fight?" It seems that the rumors are true! ”

"What rumors?" Qiangrui was suddenly a little angry.

"I have heard people say that the reason why King Qiangrui was able to kill Wu Lan, the general of the Shu army, in front of the battle was entirely because Wu Lan had been shot by Cao Xiu and was seriously injured, the king, you just picked up a cheap one for nothing, otherwise you will fight alone, and you are not the opponent of the Shu general Wu Lan at all!"

"Nonsense! This king was single-handedly with Wu Lan back then, but he didn't suffer any injuries? Who is spreading rumors, if this king finds out, he will not be spared! ”

"Then I'm curious, the king, you were able to kill Wu Lan, a general in the prime of life, before the battle, why didn't you dare to go out of the city to fight the veteran Liao Hua today?"

"This ......!"

Qiangrui is actually not afraid of going head-to-head with Liao Hua, but he doesn't want to go head-to-head with Liao Hua at all, because once he goes out of the city and goes head-to-head, he will make it clear that he wants to completely break off with Shu Han, and there will be no room to return to Shu Han.

"It seems that King Qiangrui, you are really still afraid of the veteran Liao Hua!"

Cao Zhi smiled at Qiangrui with a bit of sarcasm. "I knew that the king was so timid, I shouldn't have promised you so much money and food in the first place, this is a lot of money!"

Cao Zhi guessed what Qiangrui was thinking, deliberately mocked Qiangrui, aroused his fighting spirit, and emphasized that Cao Wei's side had given him real benefits, reminding him not to be the first to do both.

After thinking about it for a while, Qiang Rui suddenly realized that the possibility of wanting to return to Shu Han is very low, but Cao Wei still has a promise of heavy money and profits, and suddenly slapped it on the table as if he had figured it out, and said angrily:

"Nonsense! Hmph, damn it, this king will behead Liao Hua in front of the battle tomorrow, so that you can know how powerful this king is! ”

At dawn the next day, Liao Hua led his army to attack the city.

The drums of war outside the city of Wudu sounded, Liao Hua was about to lead the soldiers to carry the ladder, pushing the car to prepare to attack the city, and suddenly a group of men and horses were killed in the city of Wudu, waving a banner with the word "Di". Under the banner, a leader of the Di people stood proudly on his horse with two swords in his hand.

At the head of the city, a white-clothed Confucian was shaking a feather fan and looking at everything outside the city.

After Qiangrui left the city, he shouted to the Shu army:

"I am Qiangrui, the king of the Di people, Liao Hua'er, do you dare to fight alone with me in front of the battle?"

Although Liao Hua is over sixty years old, he is still in good spirits, he stroked his beard and smiled:

"Shameless little Qiangrui, who rebelled several times, will let you die under the old man's gun today!"

Seeing that Liao Hua agreed to go heads-up, the Di people consciously retreated, leaving room for heads-up, and the Shu army also tacitly retreated, leaving the battlefield to the two.

The war drums on both sides gradually sounded, Qiangrui and Liao Hua each rode their horses out of battle, Qiangrui brandished his double knives, tiger and tiger, Liao Hua was not in a hurry or slow, and slowly beat his horse forward.

Soon the two weapons intersected, and they fought together on the horse, Qiangrui's double knife offensive was as dense as rain, and Liaohua's spear was not reduced back then, the two fought equally, and the fight was difficult to solve for a while, and before they knew it, the two had fought for sixty rounds.

Between the swings of the swords, the soldiers of the two armies were deeply impressed by the martial arts of the two, and the shouts and cheers became higher and higher.

After all, Qiangrui is in the prime of life, and he is at the peak of his physical fitness, and he can become more and more courageous after sixty rounds, while Liao Hua's physical strength has obviously begun to decline, and he is gradually defeated.

Qiangrui finally found a flaw in Liao Hua, and slashed away Liao Hua's spear with a knife, and slashed at Liao Hua's face door with another knife, Liao Hua was suddenly startled, and quickly dodged the slashing knife, quickly put away the spear, and began to flee back to the main formation.

"The old thief is gone!" Jonry let out a loud shout and hurriedly rode his horse to catch up.

Seeing Qiangrui chasing after him, Liao Hua put the spear in front of him, reluctantly clamped the horse's belly tightly with his legs, and turned back with his body on the horse, and the spear stabbed backwards along Liao Hua's raised hands.

"Back to the pistol!"

Liao Hua shouted.

The spear stabbed at Qiangrui's neck like a dragon, Qiangrui never expected Liao Hua to have this hand, but because the horse was too fast, he had no time to resist, and when he saw that the spear was about to stab his throat, he was so frightened that he closed his eyes tightly, and he didn't know what to do, and he was terrified in his heart, knowing that he would definitely die at this time.

Liao Hua was overjoyed in his heart, and the spear stabbed out quickly, stabbing like a sharp arrow, he was proud in his heart, this move would definitely kill Qiangrui.

Just as the tip of the gun was about to pierce Jonry's throat, suddenly there was an explosion in the sky.

"Boom!"

A bolt of lightning fell out of thin air and landed directly on the spear that Liao Hua stabbed, knocking Liao Hua's spear away.

The war horse under Liao Hua's crotch was so frightened by the thunder that he reluctantly raised his legs and jumped up, threw Liao Hua off the horse, and then fled like crazy.

Qiang Rui was also awakened by this thunder, and glanced at Cao Zhi behind him, but saw that Cao Zhi was nodding towards him.

"It's actually this Cao Changshi who is using the thunder method, this Cao Changshi's spell is unfathomable, and he actually saved his life!"

So Qiangrui hurriedly arched his hand towards Cao Zhi to express his gratitude, and then turned over and dismounted and captured Liao Hua.

When the Shu Han army saw that Liao Hua was captured alive, their morale suddenly plummeted, and the Wei army and the Di army in Wudu City took advantage of the situation to kill, and they were defeated for a while.

The Wei army pursued for more than ten miles, and only after killing more than 2,000 Shu troops did they collect their troops and return to the city.

Wudu City, under Cao Zhi's planning, not only successfully defended it, but also captured Liao Hua, the vanguard general of the Shu army.
