Chapter 381 Guo Tu Heads South to Jiangdong? His Teammate is Actually Xu Sheng!
"There are such experts in Wuji City?"
Witnessing the brutal death of the bald man's confidant, Yu was filled with rage.
Along with it came a deep sense of fear!
Throwing a flying halberd is something not everyone can do.
Not only do you need to aim, but you also need arm strength that is beyond the reach of ordinary people!
Therefore, none of those who wield flying halberds or spears are kind-hearted.
"Commander, Baldy underestimated the enemy. He never expected the enemy would plot against him!"
"We outnumber them and have a numerical advantage, so let's just launch a direct assault!"
The words of his trusted confidants gave Yu Du renewed confidence.
With a wave of his hand, he planned to attack Wuji County.
But soon, Yu Du could no longer laugh.
On the city wall, Xu Chu, holding a large megaphone, imitated a wild gorilla, pounding his chest and shouting:
"You treacherous dog! Your grandfather, Xu Chu of Qiao Commandery, is here! Do you dare to fight your grandfather?"
Its voice was like a booming bell, resonating in all directions.
Xu Chu's voice was on par with Zhang Fei's.
In addition, there's the amplification effect of the loudspeaker.
For a moment, Yu Du felt dizzy.
But more than the physical discomfort, the psychological fear left him feeling helpless.
He certainly knew of Xu Chu's name.
The burly man on the city wall was almost as big as the legendary Xu Chu.
The presence of Xu Chu proves that either Su Yu or Cao Cao are also present!
This is crazy...
I just wanted to rob the Zhen family, how did I end up running into Cao Cao's men?
Yu Du felt a surge of bad luck.
They could neither advance nor retreat.
He was stuck in the middle, like a wronged little wife.
"Commander... Shall we continue fighting?"
Yu Du's trusted confidants also chickened out at this moment.
If the enemy were merely the Zhen family's retainers, their 10,000 Black Mountain bandits could easily defeat them with their numerical advantage.
But what if the enemy were Cao Cao's men?
Even if we win, offending Cao Cao's camp will definitely lead to disastrous consequences!
"Bastard!"
"How dare Xu Chu frighten you all like this?"
"Men, whoever can kill Xu Chu, I will promote him to deputy commander!"
In order to boost morale, Yu Du did not hesitate to use the position of deputy commander as bait.
A generous reward will surely attract brave men, and soon several reckless Black Mountain bandits stepped forward.
Xu Chu descended from the city wall and, with a single stroke, killed all the Black Mountain bandits.
Then, Xu Chu pointed in the direction where Yu Du was and laughed loudly:
"Is this all you have?"
"If that's the case, I, Xu Zhongkang, will chop off your dog's head in a moment!"
Enraged, Yu Du ordered his personal guards to secretly fire arrows.
Unfortunately, these were all things that Cao Cao's camp had already done before.
Xu Chu took out his shield and easily blocked the arrow, and even countered the one who shot the arrow with a flying knife!
Yes, Xu Chu could also use throwing knives.
Although his accuracy is generally not as good as Zhang Ning's.
But that didn't stop him from instantly killing the person who shot him with a sneak attack.
"I'm so angry!"
"All troops, listen to my command! Kill!"
Yu Du was going all out, intending to fight to the death.
In any case, his mere presence here has already offended Cao Cao's camp.
Rather than doing that, we should attack and capture Wuji County.
At least, they can still steal some things to recoup their losses.
Xu Chu quickly entered the city, and the soldiers behind him closed the city gate.
On the city tower, the broth is ready!
Eager to make a name for themselves, the Black Mountain bandits suffered heavy casualties in an instant.
Moreover, their eagerness further strengthened the resolve of the servants and the people to defend Wuji City.
After fighting for only half an hour, Yu Du could no longer hold out and hastily sounded the horn to signal a retreat.
Watching Yu Du's departing figure, Xu Chu spat out a disdainful "Pah!"
"Alright everyone, you can rest now."
"Judging by the time, Yu Du's head will be here soon."
Su Yu was confident of victory.
This battle was simple; all they had to do was attack Yu Du's legs until Zhao Yun arrived with the Dragon Cavalry.
However, Su Yu never does anything he's not sure of.
The gentleman does not stand under the wall.
Whether he is a gentleman or not is not important.
But one must, of course, ensure that one's own life is absolutely safe.
Therefore, he always made it a habit to consider many factors before a war.
For example, by uniting the local gentry and common people in Wuji City in advance.
Even if Zhao Yun doesn't arrive in time, with the forces within the city united, holding out for ten days or half a month shouldn't be a problem.
Half a day later, Zhao Yun arrived at Wuji City with his Dragon Cavalry right on time.
The box hanging on the back of the Jade Lion Horse, illuminated by the night, contained the head of Yu Du!
Of the ten thousand Black Mountain bandits beside Yu Du, most of them, except for a few stubborn ones, chose to surrender.
It can be said that Yu Du is the least prestigious of the minor bosses.
She became a victim of Su Yu's womanizing ways.
The process by which Zhao Yun and the Longxiang Cavalry wiped out Yu Du was also quite simple.
The cavalry charged in formation, ending the battle in one round.
There was no way around it; the difference in strength between the two sides was simply too great.
Ten thousand Black Mountain soldiers and five thousand elite Dragon Cavalry are not even in the same league in terms of combat strength.
Looking at Yu Du's severed head, Zhen's mother, Zhang, shed tears of emotion.
Sure enough, I found a good son-in-law for the Zhen family!
Without Su Yu, the Zhen family would likely have been destroyed by this poisonous man.
After dealing with the poison, Su Yu was about to return to Ye City when Jia Xu's intelligence guard arrived at Wuji City with news that Jia Xu had persuaded Zhang Yan to surrender.
"Oh? In that case, it seems that Yu Du attacked Wuji on his own initiative."
Su Yu defined the nature of Yu Du's military operations.
Stupid, wicked, and greedy.
Otherwise, if he hadn't been so greedy and had surrendered to Cao Cao's camp with Zhang Yan, he certainly wouldn't have had to worry about his life.
"Ok?"
"Feng Ji chose to take a position in the Ministry of Personnel?"
"Is Feng Ji really that stubborn?"
Su Yu shrugged, looking puzzled.
Look how clever Guo Tu is!
Sure enough, Guo Tu, the newly promoted Marquis of Guannei in Cao Cao's camp, has already gone south ahead of the main army.
Su Yu has also sent someone to inform his sworn brother Chen Deng, asking him to assist Guo Tu's "great cause of marching south" while he is in Guangling!
……
Jiangdong
near Chaisang
Guo Tu vomited like an idiot.
Not only did he get seasick, he also went the wrong way!
Originally, under Chen Deng's arrangement, Guo Tu set off by boat from Guangling, intending to go to Jiangxia and then north to Xiangyang.
As a result, the boat encountered a storm, and the boatman was a real character; he and Guo Tu were a perfect match.
He shamelessly told Guo Tu:
"Mr. Guo, it doesn't matter where you go, we'll just go straight to the point and rip Jiangdong off!"
"We'll do anything to defend Cao Cao's territory!"
Oh right, this boatman is Xu Sheng.
He had previously distinguished himself in killing Lü Xiang and Lü Kuang, and in capturing Yuan Tan. (See Chapter 304 for details)
Xu Sheng also received a noble title and official position, becoming one of the top generals in Cao Cao's camp.
But Xu Sheng is just too responsible.
After learning about Guo Tu's secret mission from Su Yu, Xu Sheng volunteered to be Guo Tu's bodyguard.
But if Guo Tu were given another chance, he would absolutely not agree to team up with Xu Sheng!
