Xu Chu, the city of Xuzhou, took the independent brigade to set up a position here, and when he first received the news, Tao Qian was taken aback, because he had not received any news before.

When he learned that there were 3,000 more people outside the city, Tao Qian hurriedly took his subordinate Chen Deng to the east gate to watch, and then took a direct breath of cold air. The 3,000 Jizhou troops were all concentrated at the East City Gate, and more than 50 catapults had all been assembled, and the piled up boulders had built a rockery of nearly ten zhang outside Xuzhou City. These boulders were enough for the Jizhou army to raze the east city gate of Xuzhou to the ground, of course, Tao Qian would be able to build another city wall before the Jizhou army razed the east city gate to the ground.

But even if the Jizhou army is unable to capture Xuzhou City for the time being, whoever is blocked at the door of the house is not even clear why it will be blocked, and who is uncomfortable with this kind of thing.

"My lord, the Jizhou army is here prepared this time!" Chen Deng only glanced at it and came to such a conclusion, and then said to Tao Qian. Tao Qian touched his beard and nodded, motioning for Chen Deng to continue.

"It will take a long time for the dispatch of 3,000 troops to go south from Qingzhou, but we have not received any military information for such a long period of time, so it can be seen that the area around the East China Sea is at least not in our hands now." Chen Deng analyzed that he is worthy of being a strategist who has left a name in history, and the well-organized analysis is not much different from the facts.

Starting the second day after the Character Cavalry Brigade sent troops, the cavalry brigade launched a series of surprise attacks, quickly opening a gap in the East China Sea Kingdom, and the independent brigade took this opportunity to intersperse the past and pointed directly at Xuzhou City. Because the cavalry brigade in the middle of the way cut off all the military information sent by the Donghai Kingdom to Xuzhou City, Tao Qian became blind and could not get any information.

"This attacked me in Xuzhou for no reason, what does Fan Xiwen want to do?" Chen Deng's analysis Tao Qian also agreed, so he said angrily. Losing the territory of a county without knowing what is going on is really ridiculous, of course, it is more angry, Fan Xiwen's behavior has been regarded as a provocation.

"Presumably, Fan Xiwen is not satisfied after occupying Qingzhou, and wants to include Xuzhou in his pocket!" Chen Deng said predictively, he was quite contemptuous of Fan Xiwen, in Chen Deng's opinion, Fan Xiwen was a villain dressed as a gentleman. The Han family is not thin on Fan Xiwen, and the official and knight attach so much importance to Fan Xiwen, but Fan Xiwen is doing the things of chaotic ministers and thieves. For such a person, Chen Deng felt that as long as there was a conscience, anyone could come and despise Fan Xiwen.

"Hmph, the emperor's grace is magnificent, Fan Xiwen is the prince and the prince, the marquis of Chu, the general, and the assassin of Jizhou, when today's son values Fan Xiwen so much, but Fan Xiwen doesn't want to serve the country and wants to do rebellion, so everyone will be punished." Tao Qian snorted coldly and said indignantly, I don't know if it was because Fan Xiwen sent troops to occupy the East China Sea without authorization or because the Jizhou army was dissatisfied with the city.

"Is it the old man who is now stabbing Shi Taoqian?" Xu Chu rode a horse and put his ancestral nine-eared eight-ring elephant trunk knife on his shoulder in the front and pointed at Tao Qian very arrogantly and said, Tao Qian was green on the spot, and it was really a bit special to greet him like this when he met, especially in front of thousands of Danyang soldiers.

"Presumptuous." Tao Qian pointed at Xu Chu angrily, and then there was no follow-up.

"Haha, your wife still farts!" Xu Chu choked Tao Qian with a word, obviously bullying the elderly.

"Whoever beheaded this official for this official will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver, and the official will be promoted to one level." Tao Qian believes that there will be brave men under the heavy reward, and it seems that Xu Chu is not lightly angry.

"The last will go." Jiang Kai, the guard of the east gate, came out of the column and replied with his fists.

"Okay, this officer is here waiting for the general's good news." Tao Qian touched his beard with relief.

Jiang Kai said goodbye to Tao Qian with a spear and went out of the city with hundreds of his subordinates, Xu Chu saw that there were still people who came out to die, and he was not in a hurry to do it, he couldn't let people end as soon as they came on the field, right? This will hit the self-confidence of the follow-up tricks.

"Xuzhou Jiang Kai, the enemy will be clear." After Jiang Kai finished the formation of his subordinates, he raised his spear and shouted, full of momentum.

"You're worthy? Eat Lao Tzu with a knife. "How much influence does the "Tiger Idiot" name have, Xu Chu still knows a little bit, if Jiang Kai knows who his opponent is, this fight will probably be yellow. Therefore, Xu Chu didn't answer, and rushed forward directly with the nine-eared and eight-ring elephant trunk knife, completely not giving Jiang Kai a chance to escape.

Jiang Kai saw that the enemy general was rampant, and immediately caught the horse's belly in anger and went up, and he also relied on the spear to stab a spear longer than the nine-eared and eight-ring elephant trunk knife. Xu Chu saw that Jiang Kai actually made the first move, and immediately Yile then bent down to dodge the spear stabbed by Jiang Kai, and slashed it with a knife, Jiang Kai was cut off the horse without even having a chance to dodge, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

"Haha, such a cat and a dog dare to come out and die, is there really no one in Xuzhou?" Killed Jiang Kai in one move, Xu Chu immediately sneered, and the corners of Tao Qian's mouth immediately twitched, and his anger had reached a critical point.

"Who else wants to go?" Tao Qian said in a low voice, looking around at the generals, but saw that many people were hanging their heads at this time.

"The last will go." Another person dressed as a military general stood up and hugged his fist at Tao Qian to ask for battle, Yang Wei, who served as a captain in the Danyang Army, was a fierce general.

Tao Qian nodded as an agreement, and Yang Wei took the big knife and led his subordinates out of the city to face the battle.

Yang Wei was much calmer than Jiang Kai, and after seeing Xu Chu, he just said lightly to Xu Chu: "Danyang Yang Wei, please give me advice." ”

"Don't worry, I'll teach you well." Xu Chu said hehehe, Rao is Yang Wei no matter how cultivated he is, the corners of his mouth twitched, and Xu Chu has a lot of enemies today!

"Look at the knife." Both of them are generals with knives, and they don't talk nonsense and start fighting directly. Yang Wei was on the right move to teach Xu Chu a lesson, but who knew that Xu Chu's nine-eared and eight-ring elephant trunk knife had arrived in front of him, and Yang Wei hurriedly waved the knife to block. Who knew that Xu Chu's move was just a false move, and after Yang Wei put the knife on his chest, Xu Chu directly slashed at Yang Wei.

"Poof." Yang Wei's neck was bleeding, and the person stood on the horse in a daze, but he was out of breath. It's another second kill, looking at this scene, Tao Qian feels a little scared, even people who don't know how to fight know that Xu Chu's force value is absolutely perverted, probably no one under Tao Qian can deal with Xu Chu.

"Lord, this person is estimated to be Xu Chu, the general of Jizhou, and he is invincible!" Chen Deng finally saw the weapon in Xu Chu's hand clearly, and then hurriedly said to Tao Qian, Xu Chu is known as a "tiger idiot", and he is a top general in the Jizhou army, and Xuzhou is afraid that no one can deal with him.

"Kill." After carefully observing Tao Qian's movements on the city wall for a while, Xu Chu was sure that Tao Qian no longer planned to send someone down to send him to death, so he brandished the nine-eared and eight-ring elephant trunk knife and shouted. As soon as the three thousand troops heard Xu Chu's order, they immediately rushed up like wolves, and the subordinates brought by Jiang Kai and Yang Wei saw that Xu Chu was brave, and they didn't have the courage to resist at all, and as soon as the Jizhou army rushed up, they immediately dropped their weapons and ran to the city.

Xu Chu led his troops to chase straight to the drawbridge before stopping the pursuit, because Chen Deng had already organized archers to shoot on it, and the city gate had been closed, so Xu Chu retreated.

When he knew that the other party was Xu Chu, Tao Qian no longer stupidly filled people into it, Tao Qian had every reason to believe that Xu Chu was like a bottomless pit, and he didn't want to fill him no matter how much he threw it. Therefore, Tao Qian chose to stay closed, and then secretly ordered his henchmen to rush to Xiapi immediately to ask Cao Bao to come to the rescue with his troops.

In Tao Qian's mind, no matter how fierce Xu Chu is, there are only 3,000 people, and when the time comes, he will learn the tactics of using the Yellow Turban directly, and if he can't die, he will exhaust Xu Chu to death. Tao Qian, who had made up his mind, happily returned home with his cronies, and Chen Deng also felt that this was a better idea for now, so he also returned home after some inspection.

It only takes three days to go back and forth from Xuzhou to Xiapi, and there are still 10,000 elite soldiers in Xuzhou City at this time, and it is not a problem to hold on for three days.

If Xu Chu really only brought 3,000 people to Tao Qian, the idea of fighting more and bullying less would definitely be useful, but it was a pity that Xu Chu brought 6,000 troops, including 3,000 iron horsemen.

After Tao Qian left, the high city wall of Xuzhou hung a war-free card, but this thing was useless to the Jizhou army, because the Jizhou army would not believe in this set at all. Only a fool would give the enemy time to rest, and there is a saying that wasting time equals wasting life.

"Siege, catapults began to bombard the enemy troops standing on the city walls, and after half an hour I did not want to see enemy troops standing on the city walls." After Xu Chu saw Tao Qian and Chen Deng leaving, he took out a bag from his arms, which Guo Jia gave him before leaving.

Xu Chu gave an order, and the soldier who operated the catapult immediately worked hard as if he had knocked the medicine, and kept firing the boulder. The angle has already been adjusted, just waiting for the soldiers to start, waves of boulders continue to fly towards the city wall, and the pile of boulders behind the Jizhou army is slowly decreasing.

Looking at this situation, the ten-zhang high rockery is just a task for today, and it is estimated that some Danyang troops will suffer next, at least holding their heads and turtles are indispensable.

Half an hour later, there was no longer a Danyang soldier who dared to come out of Xuzhou City, and the catapult troops successfully completed the task assigned to them by Xu Chu.

"Brigadier Commander, why don't I take my brothers and rush at it! I guarantee that you will take Xuzhou. "Liu Laohei is now the commander of the first regiment of the Independent Brigade, and when he saw that the Danyang soldiers were suppressed by catapults, he immediately shouted that he wanted to lead people to rush up.

However, Xu Chu shook his head and denied Liu Laohei's request, his eyes looked at Xuzhou City, and his hand tightly grasped the bag that Guo Jia gave him, and a smile appeared.
