Chapter 194: Aren’t you here for support? Why did you bring your family members?
It only takes an instant for an arrow to reach the city.
Everyone in Xiapi City had different reactions, and they had some understanding of Huang Zhong.
At this time, with this arrow, the morale of the entire Xiapi City soldiers could not help but rise.
At the same time, Ji Ling’s army was on the other side of the city.
At this moment, Ji Ling's pupils couldn't help but expand.
The arrow just shot was at least a hundred steps away, and he saw with his own eyes that the opponent's general just drew his bow and shot an arrow, and his lieutenant had already fallen off his horse.
At this moment, Ji Ling couldn't help but feel a cold sweat rising from his back.
This arrow was somewhat beyond his expectation. Even if he wanted to kill someone with one arrow within a hundred steps, he would not be able to do so easily and comfortably.
Within a hundred steps, he might be able to penetrate the armor with one arrow.
But, it is definitely not as good as the veteran opposite!
Ji Ling hesitated in his heart. He had already lost one of his generals before the war started. This was not a good situation for him.
At this time, while Ji Ling was hesitating, another general jumped out from behind.
"General, wait a minute, I'm going to take the enemy general's head!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Ling came to his senses, and another lieutenant on the side followed him and rode out.
At this moment, when he saw another general coming out of the enemy army, Huang Zhong at the bottom of the city raised the corners of his eyes slightly.
Before putting down the long bow in his hand, he drew another arrow.
Seeing this scene, Cheng Shang Xiyu couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
Huang Zhong is Huang Zhong after all. He doesn't hesitate at all on the battlefield. He can quickly kill the opponent's generals without making any other choices.
If it were Dian Wei, even if he had such an archery skill, he probably wouldn't be able to draw an arrow and draw an arrow.
"Old Huang is not particular!"
When Dian Wei saw Huang Zhong starting to draw the bow string to full capacity again, he opened his mouth and couldn't help but murmured.
At this time, no one in the city spoke, and the soldiers behind Huang Zhong also held their breath.
Without the slightest hesitation, the strings are as full as the moon.
The arrow cluster in the hand followed the vibration of the bow string and shot out.
The next moment, the local general who was galloping towards Huang Zhong once again fell from his horse like the previous one.
Boom!
In just an instant, the soldiers behind Huang Zhong already let out deafening celebrations.
This momentum, and even the momentum of Ji Ling's army on the opposite side, seemed to be suppressed somewhat.
Ji Ling's face turned dark at this moment.
He already knew that the opponent's veteran general was good at shooting, but seeing that he had sacrificed the life of a general, it seemed a bit unwise.
"General, from what I have seen of him, I am afraid that the only thing he is good at is archery. If there is someone in our army who is good at riding, if he can dodge his sharp arrows, he will definitely be able to knock him off his horse!"
At this time, someone nearby was admonishing Ji Ling.
After all, in their opinion, Huang Zhong on the opposite side only has this shooting skill that he can use.
And if you are facing an opponent in front of him, you only need to get in front of him, and the opponent will no longer be able to exert the power of his shooting skills.
At that time, what will be used to kill generals is personal force.
After hearing this, Ji Ling felt good.
Also, the opponent's general didn't make any move to gallop forward. He just stretched his bow and shot arrows on the spot. It seems that although his archery skills are outstanding, his military force must be slightly inferior.
If someone under his command could rush in front of the opponent, the result would be different.
Thinking like this, Ji Ling glanced to the left and right: "Is there anyone in our army who is good at riding? If he can kill the enemy general, he will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins. When I get back, I will report it to Your Majesty and be promoted and given a title!"
p>
Ji Ling spoke.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone rode out next to him.
"General, a certain riding skill is acceptable, and may be able to cope with the enemy general's shooting skills!"
As soon as the man finished speaking, Ji Ling couldn't help but feel a little happy. After nodding his head repeatedly, the other party had already ridden out.
At this moment, everyone in the city was really surprised to see that Ji Ling's army had lost two people in a row, and there were generals rushing out of the formation at this time.
Dian Wei curled his lips, as he would have lost his memory in such a situation.
Who would have thought that the opponent's general would be so unwise.
Xiyu didn't react at all, just watching the scene quietly.
At this time, Huang Zhong under the city had already drawn his bow and arrow again.
However, the enemy general who came out from the distance was a little different from the first two. He seemed to have noticed Huang Zhong drawing his bow again, and the opponent's figure began to take precautions.
I saw him moving around immediately, and his figure was extremely agile.
Seeing this scene on the city wall, Dian Wei couldn't help but feel a little excited.
"Old Huang made a mistake. No matter how superb his archery skills are, it will be difficult to hit someone who is hiding behind the horse!"
Dian Wei opened his mouth to comment, but no one else on the city wall responded.
Some people even glanced at Dian Wei, as if they were confused.
The situation in front of him changed very quickly. Huang Zhong's bowstring vibrated, and for the first time, the arrow struck the horse and fell to the ground.
The arrow did not hit the local general.
The arrow missed, and the soldiers behind Huang Zhong suddenly became quieter.
At the same time, the momentum of the enemy troops on the opposite side increased significantly.
Ji Ling couldn't help but feel a little excited.
The arrow cluster of the veteran general on the opposite side was finally empty. When his men came to kill him, he would surely be able to kill him off his horse.
Ji Ling thought like this, and even the entire army seemed to have some hope.
At the same time, on the city wall, seeing Huang Zhong's arrow miss, Xia Houyuan felt mixed emotions in his heart for some reason.
Chen Deng and others frowned, while Cheng Yu stared nervously at the situation below the city.
At this moment, he turned his head and glanced at Xi Yu. The latter's expression did not change at all, it was still the same as before.
Dian Wei raised his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Regarding Huang Zhong's force, Xi Yu, Dian Wei and others are naturally more familiar with it than Cheng Yu and others.
Archery is only one aspect of Huang Zhong's martial arts. As a general, his ability to fight immediately is the most outstanding.
At this time, when he saw that the arrow missed, Huang Zhong did not continue to draw the bow.
The opponent's figure is somewhat flexible, and it is actually not difficult to hit him with his archery skills, but it does take some effort.
At this time, in the current situation, there was no need to continue to draw the bow. He simply hung the bow and arrow on the horse, and then raised the simple sword.
After moving his shoulders a little, Huang Zhong opened his eyelids slightly.
At this time, the general was already fifty steps away, and Huang Zhong did not hesitate at all.
Pu Dao took advantage of the situation and patted the horse's buttocks. In the next moment, the big yellow horse directly raised its hooves.
In an instant, there was some dust on the ground, and the yellow gelding jumped out of the dust and rushed straight towards the enemy general.
Seeing Huang Zhong put down the bow and arrow in his hand, the other general didn't know how to dodge. He thrust his spear forward, intending to knock Huang Zhong off his horse.
The two horses were close in an instant and passed each other in an instant.
Huang Zhong swung the sword in his hand towards the opponent, and the huge force hit the opponent's gun body in an instant, before the opponent could recover.
The blade of the knife cuts across the body of the gun, and further forward, there is a knife on the owl's head.
The sound of hooves disappears.
Huang Zhong calmly sheathed his sword, but on the horse behind him, the enemy general fell off his horse again.
In just an instant, the celebrations of the army below the city began to resound.
At the same time, Ji Ling and others on the opposite side seemed to be stunned by the scene in front of them.
It's like pressing the pause button.
The scenes on both sides are extremely obvious.
On top of the city wall, Dian Wei couldn't help but wave his hand, and Xi Yu shook his head gently, as if he had seen the scene a long time ago.
Cheng Yu couldn't help but feel a hint of joy on his face.
The scene in front of him made him relax his worries. In this way, Xuzhou's crisis was no longer a big deal.
Huang Zhong killed three generals in a row, and the vigor of Ji Ling's army had dropped to the extreme.
At this time, I saw Huang Zhong walking a hundred steps away from the opponent's battle formation and casually raising the long bow again.
In front of Ji Ling's army, Huang Zhong once again stretched his bow and stringed his bow.
"General, be careful!"
Someone shouted to Ji Ling. After hearing this, Ji Ling came back to his senses.
When he looked at Huang Zhong again, he saw that the opponent had drawn his bow and fired towards him.
There seemed to be a sound of breaking through the air, and Ji Ling instinctively waved the weapon in front of him.
Bang!
The sound of Jin Ge exploded.
I don’t know if this blow was luck or something.
When Ji Ling raised his hand, he just happened to block the cluster of arrows shot by Huang Zhong in front of him.
However, the strength of this arrow still frightened Ji Ling.
After he noticed it just now, he hastily raised his weapon to defend himself, and instinctively swung it down, but he didn't expect to be able to block the opponent's arrow cluster.
However, the force of this arrow was already so strong that it made his palms numb.
In just a moment, Ji Ling realized something was wrong.
However, at this time, Huang Zhong set up again, and even the army under Xiapi City began to rush toward them with killing and shouting.
Watching Huang Zhong nock an arrow again.
Ji Ling was a little frightened. He was able to block the arrow just now. In the final analysis, it was luck. He was not sure whether he could block the arrow again.
In fact, he knew clearly that he might not be able to stop it.
If he was shot by an arrow before this battle formation, not only would the army be defeated, but it might also affect Yuan Shu in the rear.
After thinking about this clearly, Ji Ling felt a little regretful. If he had known that today would be like this, he should have made an appointment with Lu Bu to attack together.
Previously, he was somewhat envious of Lu Bu for attacking several cities in succession, so he did not join forces with Lu Bu, but now he has noticed it.
It is too difficult to fight Cao Jun on your own.
What's more, it's Xiapi City in front of you.
Ji Ling knew clearly that this skill would not allow him to hesitate.
The morale of the army is already low, and it is difficult to win when fighting the opponent at this time.
Furthermore, the opponent relies on the city wall and may have soldiers to help at any time.
I am still too eager.
After understanding this in his heart, Ji Ling quickly began to turn the horse's head before Huang Zhong fired his second arrow.
"With the order, withdraw the troops with gold!"
After shouting to the herald on the side, Ji Ling hurriedly turned his horse and galloped towards the center of the army.
He was relieved when he was out of Huang Zhong's shooting range.
However, at this moment, as he gave the order to withdraw, the Xiapi army on the opposite side also followed his army and chased him.
There were some losses this time, but Ji Ling couldn't care about that much anymore.
Although there were some losses, his decision to withdraw the troops was timely.
After the army was far away from Xiapi City, the opponent's army did not come up to pursue them.
And at the same time.
As Huang Zhong went out to win the victory, Xi Yu in Xiapi City raised his head and looked towards the sky.
At this time, the sunset had just appeared on the western sky, and a bright red halo was falling from the sky.
The entire green wall of Xiapi City was covered with a layer of red light.
Even the faces of everyone on the city wall turned a little red.
This battle was a great victory, and everyone's emotions naturally became somewhat high.
Xi Yu smiled slightly.
Calculating the time, Zhao Yun and others should be almost ready by now, and they will be waiting for tonight's night attack.
The troops under the city retreated to clean up the battlefield, and Huang Zhong returned to the city.
During this time, Xi Yu stood on the city wall and turned his head to look at the crowd.
"Everyone, it's still early, so you might as well come into my account and have a chat!"
Xiyu opened his mouth to invite.
Everyone in the city is waiting for help.
Even Xia Houyuan also bowed helplessly.
Since the control of Xuzhou has been given away, he can only accept his fate. Now he has received the news that Cao Cao is ill.
Although Xia Houyuan felt a little unhappy with Xi Yu at this time, he still had some sense of what was right and what was wrong.
Not long after, Xi Yu led a group of people to his temporary tent.
After everyone took their seats, Xi Yu naturally sat at the head of the big tent.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Within the field of vision, the group of people on the left are Xia Houyuan and others, together with the gentry officials of the Xuzhou faction.
On the right side of the tent are Dian Wei, Huang Zhong, Xi Zhicai, Guo Jia and others who are following Xi Yu.
In comparison, there are naturally more people on the left.
On the left side, the factions are somewhat obvious.
In addition to the local people in Xuzhou, there are Cao Ying officials headed by Xia Houyuan. Within Xuzhou itself, there are also a faction of aristocratic families and a Danyang faction that originally belonged to Tao Qian.
But now, after Tao Qian's death and Liu Bei's departure, these Danyang sects have lost some of their confidence.
Compared with the Xuzhou nobles, they can only move closer to Cao Jun more obviously.
"Captain, the victory in this battle is the result of your great wisdom!"
At this time, after everyone took their seats, some people couldn't help but congratulated Xi Yu.
After hearing this, Xi Yu's expression did not change at all. He just raised his eyes and glanced at the other party, then shook his head.
"The victory in this battle has something to do with me. Its victory is the result of Han's promotion to general. The two are also the result of the bravery of the soldiers in the city! It is not my strength."
Xiyu opened his mouth to deny it.
He is not that guy like Yuan Shao who likes to hear people praise him.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that today's victory was so easy because Huang Zhong killed three generals in a row and frightened Ji Ling into withdrawing with one arrow.
Furthermore, it was the reason why Huang Zhong led the army out of the city so bravely.
He just stood on the wall and watched the battle, so that he could take the credit for himself. He is not that kind of person.
Waving his hand, Xi Yu looked up at the people below, and his eyes naturally fell on Chen Deng.
"Yuanlong is from Xuzhou, is he familiar with the city of Xiapi?"
Xi Yu asked Chen Deng casually.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the tent was somewhat puzzled as to why the good Xiyu would ask such a question.
Even Chen Deng was a little confused at this time.
However, since Xi Yu had already asked the question, he did not hesitate at all, bowed his hands, and Chen Deng followed suit.
"To be honest, Lieutenant Commander, Deng is somewhat familiar with the inside of Pi City!"
"I wonder what the captain meant by asking this question?"
Chen Deng was a little confused and didn't understand what Xi Yu meant when he suddenly asked.
Hearing this, Xi Yu smiled casually.
"Without him, I am coming to Xuzhou for the first time and I don't know much about the situation in the city!"
"If you are familiar with Yuan Long, can you help me find a suitable house for me to live in the city?"
After saying this, Xiyu paused and continued to speak.
"In addition, I also need to take a look at Xuzhou's government affairs in recent years. Yuanlong, please send them to me as well!"
After Xi Yu finished speaking, everyone in the entire tent was stunned for a moment.
Xia Houyuan couldn't help but bite the tips of his teeth.
What does Xi Fengyi mean? He has just taken over the power of the governor's war. Now he is eager to take the military and political affairs of Xuzhou into his own hands?
What does he want to do?
Do you want to take advantage of this opportunity to hold the entire Xuzhou in your own hands?
This approach is too obvious!
Xia Houyuan couldn't help but feel sad, and all the officials in Xuzhou were somewhat enlightened. At this time, the officials of the Xuzhou gentry couldn't help but look at Chen Deng.
At this moment, Chen Deng raised his head and looked at Xi Yu.
The other party wanted to help him find a house, which was not a difficult task, but after the government affairs in Xuzhou, it was obvious that Xi Yu wanted to interfere in Xuzhou's affairs.
And now that the other party is taking advantage of the victory in this battle to bring up this matter, and because of his status, it is difficult for Xuzhou officials, including him, to refuse.
Chen Deng hesitated for a while before asking.
"I don't know how big the house the Taiwei needs is, so I can refer to it for reference!"
When Chen Deng opened his mouth, he did not directly talk about government affairs, but asked about the matters at the house that Xiyu mentioned.
Hearing this, Xi Yu smiled.
"That's about right. I'm not the only one this time. I've brought all my family members to Xuzhou for the sake of Xuzhou, so I also need a place to stay."
As soon as Xi Yu spoke these words, Xia Houyuan's expression couldn't help but change.
Xiyu even brought his own family members, what does he mean?
I don’t plan to go back to Xuchang!
At this moment, Xia Houyuan's mood was a little complicated, and even the way he looked at Xi Yu changed.
At the same time, the expressions of Chen Deng and others also changed somewhat because of Xi Yu's words.
Xi Yu wants to see the government affairs in Xuzhou? The other party has even made it clear that he has brought his family members.
This couldn’t be more obvious.
