Chapter 155: County Lieutenant Xu Sheng

Although Yuan Yao had an army of 10,000 people, counting his warrior battalion, this surprise attack on Wu County, to be precise, there were nearly 13,000 people.

But in fact, the vanguard of this attack on Dantu was only 3,000 people led by Liu Pi.

It's not that he doesn't want to send all his troops out at once.

However, the port is really a little small, and the number of ships that can berth at one time is limited, and it is impossible for so many people to come down at the same time.

Therefore, he could only disembark and land in batches, and the soldiers and horses led by Liu Pi were the first to land, so he was responsible for opening the road and attacking the port.

Just three thousand people, that's enough.

If 3,000 people can't take a port, then Liu Bike will really have to come back to see him.

It is precisely because of this that Xu Sheng, who has 800 soldiers under his command, dared to come back and fight Liu Pi.

Xu Sheng wielded a big knife and killed him from the county seat, followed by a group of soldiers.

In this Dantu County, there were originally 1,000 elite soldiers, but some of them were responsible for patrolling and had already been cleared out.

Many of the rest of them were frightened and ran away, and only some of Xu Sheng's cronies dared to follow Xu Sheng, rushed out of Dantu County, and fought to the death for Xu Sheng.

Dozens of people followed Xu Sheng to kill, and soon met Liu Pi's men.

Except for the time when Liu Pi and his gang went ashore, they encountered a small amount of resistance, and at other times, they almost did not encounter any strong resistance, and most of them were some villagers who helped on the dock.

These people will not resist desperately for their own lives.

When they saw that Liu Pi and these people were basically some regular soldiers of the imperial court, they also knew that the other party was not coming for them.

Anyway, whoever is the master in this Dantu County will be the master, and they can all have an errand on the dock, and naturally they will not put up a complete resistance.

Many people just want to understand this, so they don't hate Yuan Yao's people so much.

After all, it's not the thieves who are coming, the pirates are attacking the docks, they may kill civilians and loot goods.

However, the regular army of the imperial court only targeted the military buildings and forces of the docks, and would not attack the civilians.

It is also for this reason that Liu Pi's soldiers and horses soon occupied most of the wharf in the entire Dantu County.

Xu Sheng approached where Liu Bi's army was, and when he looked around, he saw that the dock had now been occupied by the enemy, and there was a hint of regret in his eyes.

But he didn't want to run away like this, if he left like this, he would have no shame to go to see Sun Ce.

gritted his teeth and was ruthless, but he still took his own people and killed Liu Bi.

"Thief, eat me!"

Xu Sheng's eyes glanced at the battlefield, and quickly locked on to Liu Pi.

He naturally understands the truth that the thief captures the king first.

He thought that as long as he controlled the enemy's commander, he would be able to restrain the enemy who was attacking.

So at the beginning of the battle, he didn't think about himself, but went straight to Liu Bi's side, holding a big knife, and slashed at Liu Bi's body.

The broadsword is fierce and domineering, and the slash is galloping.

With that loud shout, Liu Bi has become extremely interested.

Liu Pi just came to the front of the team, he didn't encounter any obstacles, he still looked a little uneasy, although he was able to capture this dock, he couldn't encounter any enemies, so naturally he couldn't highlight their strength.

Just as he was worried that he didn't have any decent opponents, Xu Sheng appeared in front of him.

Liu Biguang saw Xu Sheng's military general outfit, and knew that the other party's position was definitely not low, at least in this Dantu County, it was definitely a first-class existence.

At that moment, Liu Bi's eyes emitted a burst of fine light, and then he went straight to Xu Sheng.

In the slash that Xu Sheng slashed over, Liu Bi also reacted quickly, and also swung a knife hard.

The big knife went straight to Xu Sheng's place, and the long knives of the two instantly collided together.

With a bang, sparks burst out of their weapons, sputtering out.

The blades collided and then separated, splitting the air, turning around and striking together again.

In just one breath, I heard the sound of clanging, one after another.

In three or two strokes, Liu Pi and Xu Sheng had already fought in one place, and they fought three or four rounds in one go.

Both of them are good at using big knives, Xu Sheng has a long knife, which is a bit similar to Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue knife, but it is not so bells and whistles, and a metal rod is pieced together with a blade, which looks extraordinary.

And Liu Bi's weapon is a slightly shorter horse chopping knife.

Compared with the broadsword, the chopping knife is slightly shorter, the handle is thinner, and the weight is lighter, so that it can not only be used with one hand, the appropriate length, but also can be held with both hands, and it is flexible and convenient to use.

In addition, Liu Pi is now in his thirties, and he has practiced a lot over the years, and this horse chopping knife can be regarded as perfect in his hands.

The knife went straight to Xu Sheng's vital point.

Although Xu Sheng is talented and very confident in his own martial arts, after all, he lacks the grinding of life and death on the battlefield, and this level of engagement is simply pediatric for a general like Liu Pi who has been in the army for more than ten years and has been sharpened from life and death dozens of times.

But for Xu Sheng, this battle of life and death is a bit rusty.

Although he has a lot of enthusiasm, he can also fight back and forth with Liu Bi.

But after a long time, coupled with the people brought by Liu Pi around him, more and more people gathered, and the crowd around him gave Xu Sheng a lot of pressure.

In a short period of time, it was too difficult to defeat Liu Pi and kill Liu Pi, and then try to block these attackers.

But the more he thought about it, the more pressure on Xu Sheng became.

Xu Sheng's forehead was already covered with beads of sweat, and he didn't know if it was because of the pressure that Liu Pi had added to him, or because of the pressure brought by the soldiers around him.

It's just that after more than a dozen moves, Xu Sheng's speed slowly can't keep up with Liu Bi's rhythm.

Liu Bi also saw that although the young general in front of him had good strength, he was too lacking in combat experience, and now he was in decline.

Just as he was about to seize Xu Sheng's flaws and kill Xu Sheng with one sword.

Liu Bi thought about it, a dead enemy general is not worth a living.

immediately gave up killing Xu Sheng, and continued to deal with Xu Sheng, wanting to capture him alive.

After another seven or eight moves, Xu Sheng had already begun to lose, and it was difficult to keep up with Liu Pi's rhythm, and he was already sweating profusely and panting.

Liu Bi was not in a hurry to kill him, but continued to let the pro-soldiers around him gradually surround him, and there were many pro-soldiers behind him, who came up from time to time to raid a few times with spears, which brought great pressure to Xu Sheng.

Xu Sheng was only able to strengthen his defense and seriously deplete his physical strength.
