Chapter 748 Tiger Chi Dies! [Seeking Monthly Votes]
Liaocheng is located to the south of Luoshui River. When Yuwen Chengdu led the army to build a pontoon bridge to cross the river, Gao Shun led a group of troops and marched southwest together with Zhou Yu, and swept the county north of the Yellow River with Dong Zhao on both sides.
Then they will attack Puyang, and then go all the way south to attack Gao Shun's hometown Chenliu.
In the original work, Gao Shun, who was born in the Gao family of Chenliu, was at odds with Chen Gong, who was born in the Chen family of Dongjun. Since they occupied Yanzhou, the two sides have been trying to undermine each other.
In the late Han Dynasty, there were many examples of forces from the same camp trying to undermine each other.
Yuan Shao's solution was to add fire, make both sides evenly matched, and then use checks and balances like fighting crickets.
Cao Cao had a heart-to-heart conversation, and with his great righteousness, the two sides turned their hostility into friendship.
Sun Quan likes to play fifty games each. It's okay for you to make trouble in private, but don't affect me from becoming the King of Wu.
Only Lu Bu is the most special. This old man is full of muscles and can't stop the internal strife among his subordinates... Of course, Lu Bu also has great wisdom. When Hao Meng rebelled, Gao Shun already pointed out that Chen Gong was up to something. As a result, not only did Lu Bu not Instead of blaming him, he pretended as if nothing had happened, which made Chen Gong feel embarrassed.
Now Lu Bu is not here, but Yuwen Chengdu, who is almost at full level in scheming and resourcefulness, is here. The entire battle of Yanzhou will not happen again, as in the original work, Yanzhou was taken away again.
On the bank of Luoshui River, Tian Yu, who had just joined the army, looked at the steel pontoon bridge that was quickly built and rubbed his eyes in disbelief:
"It's so fast? With this thing, the chasm in the sky becomes a smooth road, it's great!"
Xun You stroked his beard and said:
"This is for temporary military use. Now, the construction of permanent bridges has begun in the Guanzhong area. It can pass six carriages side by side and will not decay after a hundred years."
After speaking, he took out his mobile phone and showed Tian Yu a video of a pile driver repairing a bridge:
"These bridge piles are all made of reinforced concrete. What does Guorang think?"
Guorang is Tian Yu's cousin. He has just turned twenty this year and has not yet served as an official. Seeing that Zhou Yu, Sima Lang, and Yuwen Chengdu in the army are all young people, he also joined the army and prepared to gain some experience.
This experience was not taken too seriously, and I directly saw the big killer weapon in the imperial army - the quick-installation pontoon bridge.
There are actually floating bridges in the Three Kingdoms, but the construction speed is slow and the efficiency is low. Every time they are built, they have to demolish houses and find wood, which makes the people miserable and easily delays the war.
This time when he came to the Luoshui River, Tian Yu heard the word "building a pontoon bridge" and thought he would have to stay by the river for ten and a half months to cross. Unexpectedly, in less than two hours, the pontoon bridge was built.
The cavalry first rushed to the other side of the river, established a defensive line, and released scouts to conduct an all-round survey of the terrain, farmland and other places around Liaocheng.
After the cavalry passed, the second pontoon bridge was built.
The infantry began to cross the river and pushed the defense line directly to the foot of Liaocheng thirty miles away, facing the defenders in the city.
After Yuwen Chengdu crossed the river, he used a telescope to look at the wheat fields in the distance. It was almost the heading period of the wheat. After the flowers were cultivated and pollinated, it was the harvest season.
After reading it, he asked the scout captain:
"Who is the guard of Liaocheng? He actually allowed Xu Chu to cross the Yellow River from Dong'a to meet him."
"General, a few months ago, Cao Cao granted Xu Chu's brother Xu Ding the title of Liaocheng Order. Now Xu Chu comes to the rescue because he is probably worried about his brother's safety."
What an amazing brotherhood... When Yuwen Chengdu heard this, he couldn't help but think of the bratty little kid in the B&B who liked sour and spicy food.
I don’t know how this little guy is doing recently. When I attend Erlang’s wedding, I have to urge him to eat more vegetables. If he doesn’t obey, I will take the opportunity to beat him up... The opportunity to spank King Tang is rare, but you must not do it. miss.
When Cao Xing heard that the county magistrate of Liaocheng was actually Xu Chu's brother, he immediately said:
"General, since these brothers are together, why not just send them all away? The road to hell is long and lonely, and the two brothers can be companions."
Yuwen Chengdu wiped his seven-curved phoenix wings and said:
"I killed Xu Chu because he cursed people first. It was a personal enmity. If Xu Ding is a sensible person, let him go. We represent the court and cannot just kill him."
Hearing the word "private hatred", everyone present shed tears of sympathy for Xu Chu.
It's really cool to be a bitch, Family Crematorium, you said you were fine, why are you scolding Lu Bu when you have nothing to do, and you continue to scold him again and again.
Lu Bu might have laughed and ignored it, but now that there was Yuwen Chengdu who regarded him as his brother, it would be difficult to handle.
The reason why Yuwen Chengdu said that killing Xu Chu was a personal enmity was to eliminate any possibility of interceding for mercy... Unless Li Yu spoke up, no matter who helped intercede, he would not spare Xu Chu.
After Cao Xing's artillery battalion crossed the river, they were about to establish a position in front when Xun You suddenly called out to him:
"After Xu Chu's death, pay attention to Xu Ding's movements. If he has evil intentions, kill him with cold arrows or cannons to avoid future troubles."
"Okay Mr. Gongda, it's on me."
Cao Xing agreed, turned around and found that many people suddenly came to the north bank of Luoshui. He immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and asked:
"Boda, what happened next?"
Sima Lang, who was in charge of the rear army, replied:
"The Cui family of Qinghe heard that the army was about to attack Yanzhou, so they sent five thousand dendrobium grains to wish the army a victory."
The Cui family is not only the largest family in Qinghe, but also a large family that has lasted for thousands of years. From the Han Dynasty to the Jin Dynasty, to the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the Cui family in Qinghe was very active.
Xun You smiled softly when he heard Sima Lang's answer:
"No wonder it lasts for thousands of years. These little thoughts are so meticulous."
Cui Lie, a veteran of the court, and his family are from the Cui family of Qinghe, but the big family likes to make bets in many directions. For example, Cui Yan, another famous member of the Cui family, was once a counselor under Yuan Shao.
During the siege of Yecheng, Cui Lie wrote a letter asking all the Cui family members to leave Yuan Shao and return to their hometown to think about their mistakes. Cui Yan left Yuan Shao at that time and has been studying at home, refusing to see any guests.
When the army pursued Yuan Shao and passed by Qinghe, the Cui family cooperated very well. Some of the Cui family's children also joined the army to make meritorious deeds for the family.
At that time, Liu Xie had already pardoned Cui's sins. Unexpectedly, now that the army was moving south, Cui would jump out to gain favor again.
When Yuwen Chengdu heard the figure of five thousand dendrobium, he felt that it underestimated the food reserves of the big family. He said directly on the intercom:
"Boda, tell the people of the Cui clan that I will recruit Cui Yan as a military official, and select thirty outstanding disciples from the Cui clan to send them to Chang'an University for further study and become disciples of the emperor."
The Cui family is a thief. When the army went south, it was still a full 5,000 dendrobiums. It was unreasonable for the coach not to respond. They just waited for praise, and then transformed themselves into a first-class family again.
But Yuwen Chengdu's response was similar to Jia Xu's, and he directly gave him a place at Chang'an University.
School is a big dyeing vat. No matter whose family you are a child, after a series of ideological education, you will become popular and professional when you graduate.
And as far as Sima Wei and Pang Degong are concerned about people's ability, if your thoughts are not pure, they will not approve your graduation. You can stay there for another two years.
When he heard that Cui Yan was appointed as the military official, Cao Xing slapped his thigh:
"It's a pity that Song Xian is not here, otherwise we can compete with Cui Yan to see who is more handsome."
Although he doesn't want to admit it, Song Xian's appearance is indeed the more capable among the men's team in Bingzhou.
Just be on par with me... Faced with the gap in appearance, Cao Xing paid the greatest respect between men - a 50-50 split.
In the Liaocheng County Government Office, the Xu brothers, who had not seen each other for a long time, were having lunch.
Xu Chu did not forget to scold Lu Bu during the meal:
"I thought he was so powerful. When he heard me scolding him, he was so frightened that he hid in Yizhou and didn't dare to come to Yanzhou. When I see him in the future, I will cut off this thief's head and let Mr. Cao see me and him. Who is more powerful?"
Xu Ding was in his thirties. Hearing his brother's words, he put down his bowl and chopsticks and said:
"Zhongkang, slandering others will not make you stronger. Marquis Wen did not come to Yanzhou not because he was afraid of you. He is a hussar general of the day. As a great man, you should respect him."
Xu Chu took a bite of the soup cake in the bowl:
"I'm just not convinced. A reckless man from the border, who is not even a filial piety, actually became a hussar general. Can he understand the prose?"
Xu Ding sighed silently:
"Marquis Wen has great literary talents. The poem "Viewing the Canghai" was excerpted by Cao Gong and hung in his bedroom. He read it day and night and recited it. Other poems were also praised by the nobles. Is it difficult to recognize the excellence of others?"
Hearing this, Xu Chu placed the bowl in his hand heavily on the table:
"When I was serving as an official for Cao Gong, Cao Gong kept praising that reckless man from Bingzhou day and night. I didn't expect that when I came to Liaocheng, you seemed to have been drunk with ecstasy. I just couldn't stand him, and I just wanted to kill him. Not only kill him, but also his whole family!”
Xu Ding rubbed his temples and said patiently:
"If you slander him like this, it won't hurt Marquis Wen at all. It will only make everyone think that you are a clown... If you continue to persist in your obsession, you will suffer from this sooner or later."
Xu Chu didn’t believe it:
"You have to beat me first before you talk. If I were here at Hulao Pass, it would definitely not be the turn of Bingzhou's reckless men to show off their power."
Xu Ding felt that during the years when his brother lived in his hometown, he was fascinated by compliments. He thought he was invincible and disliked everyone.
If you continue like this, you will be in big trouble!
Xu Ding's analysis was correct. In the original work, Xu Chu's pride was awakened by Dian Wei's beating. The two rough guys were beaten equally twice, and Xu Chu's arrogance dropped a lot.
Later, he followed Cao Cao and met Lu Bu in Puyang. The two fought for twenty rounds.
Although the winner has not yet been determined, the situation should be very pessimistic, because Cao Cao ordered his generals to attack Lu Bu together on the spot.
If Xu Chu had the advantage, Cao Cao would definitely not have everyone fight in such a hurry.
After that, Xu Chu stopped provoking Lu Bu, and his arrogance became less arrogant.
However, he finally recognized himself and fought Zhang Fei three times... Yide could be called Xu Chu's nemesis.
The first time they met in the burning of Xinye, the two met and fought several times in the chaos. They argued every day that Xu Chu, who was fearless and fearless, actually "didn't dare to fight and ran away".
The second time, when he was defeated on Huarong Road, Zhang Fei was ordered to intercept Cao Cao. Xu Chu, as a personal bodyguard, rode on a bareback horse to fight. Later, Zhang Liao and Xu Huang also followed. The three of them worked together to fight Zhang Fei, and then fled after covering the evacuation of the army. .
The third time at Yangping Pass, Xu Chu was protecting food. He got drunk first, and then was stabbed in the shoulder by Zhang Fei. Although he did not die, he basically said goodbye to the battlefield and never went to battle again.
"Zhongkang, the imperial army is coming fiercely, you have to watch your mouth."
After Xu Ding finished his meal, he was busy training on city wall defense and hurriedly left the county government office.
Xu Chu said hello to his sister-in-law and nephew, and returned to the military camp, preparing to pick some loud-voiced soldiers to scold Lu Bu specially, as he would do every battle.
Both are in their twenties, both are brave and brave, and I, Xu Chu, still belong to a wealthy family. Why did he, a reckless border man, become a hussar general, and why was he praised by so many people?
At three o'clock in the afternoon, Yuwen Chengdu led the army to the gates of Liaocheng. Xu Ding asked the soldiers in the city to defend behind closed doors to avoid the danger for the time being.
But Xu Chu refused to listen and insisted on going out of the city to meet the enemy. He also planned to show off the loud-mouthed swearing team he had organized.
Xu Ding was furious:
"If I had known you were so disobedient to orders, I shouldn't have let you into the city today!"
Xu Chu has his own reasons:
"The enemy army has just arrived and the troops are not yet stable. It is a good time to weaken their spirit. Brother, wait a moment. I will bring the head of the enemy commander over now to congratulate Cao Gong!"
Xu Ding couldn't persuade him, so he had to let his brother out of the city.
Xu Chu rushed out of the city first, crossed the moat, and formed a formation in front of the imperial army.
He observed the opponent's generals and found that except for a relatively tall general, none of them could fight. He felt that his opportunity to make a name for himself had come.
"Where are the thieves from? They invade Duke Cao's territory for no reason. Please dismount immediately and die!"
When Yuwen Chengdu heard this cry, he suddenly became happy.
Although the princes at the end of the Han Dynasty were foolish, they all regarded themselves as Han ministers and never dared to say that a certain place was someone's territory, because the whole world belonged to the Han.
As a result, Xu Chu opened his mouth and said something about Duke Cao's territory. He really used a different method to bring trouble to Ah Ma!
Before he could say anything, the red beast under his crotch became angry and kept neighing and scraping its front hooves on the ground, obviously wanting to rush over and teach the horse on the other side a lesson.
Yuwen Chengdu pinched the horse's belly, and the red beast immediately moved forward with vigorous steps.
"I am your Majesty's personally appointed Cavalry Commander. You have occupied Yanzhou and are trying to stand on your own. This is really just a fly on the tree!"
He stepped out of the queue and walked towards Xu Chu.
When Xu Chu heard that he was a Cavalry Captain, this official position was not low, he quickly rode forward, preparing to kill a Cavalry Captain and make Duke Cao look good.
When the two were fifty steps apart, Yuwen Chengdu suddenly asked:
"I heard that you repeatedly insulted Marquis Wen?"
Xu Chu said with an arrogant look:
"Yes, the reckless man from Bingzhou is not worthy of being a hussar general of the Han Dynasty. One day I will chop off his head and feed it to the dogs. Those who are warm and warm are all dead nobles here!"
Yuwen Chengdu picked up his seven-curved phoenix wing and said lightly:
"Marquis Wen is my elder brother. I hope your neck is as hard as your mouth!"
After saying that, he grabbed the reins, and the red beast immediately neighed, stood up, and then rushed towards Xu Chu like lightning.
"Well done!"
Xu Chu swung the sword in his hand and rode forward, ready to take a good look at the young man in front of him.
Behind, Cao Xing used an angle meter to adjust the cannon, while Tian Yu squatted aside, carefully looking at these cannons made from seamless steel pipes as if admiring a beautiful woman.
When he heard the fight started in the field, Cao Xing picked up the walkie-talkie and said to Sima Lang:
"Boda, don't just watch, take more shots... This turtle scolds Marquis Wen over and over again, so it needs to be filmed and publicized. The Han Hussars General is not something that a village cannon like him can humiliate."
"It's being filmed. There are several camera positions to ensure that you can fully appreciate the death of Xu Chu."
After the two ended their chat, Tian Yu asked:
"Captain Cao, what is the village cannon?"
"I'm so used to it in the village that I feel that I am invincible in the whole world... To put it simply, I am the kind of person who is ignorant and uneducated, but still feels good about himself."
Tian Yu blinked and felt that this term was quite accurate.
Cao Xing saw that he was interested in this kind of vocabulary and continued:
"If you are a little more reckless and stubborn, you will no longer be a village cannon, but a mountain cannon... Anyway, they are not good words. You can use them to curse people in the future."
Well, I have to declare in advance that the embarrassing situation of using Bichi as a compliment should not happen again.
In the field, Xu Chu slashed at Yuwen Chengdu with his sword. He originally planned to use his natural power to easily take down the kid in front of him, but Yuwen Chengdu blocked him and he was immediately shocked by the huge force coming from the sword.
Is there someone stronger than me in the world?
Xu Chu felt unconfident for the first time, but he adjusted his thinking quickly.
If you have great strength, you will have poor skills. If you can't compete with your strength, then use your rich fighting skills to defeat this kid in front of you.
He is actually wearing gold armor, so flamboyant, it must be an embroidered pillow.
However, when Xu Chugang wanted to use a wonderful sword technique, he found that his opponent actually changed his moves three times in one slash. This was no longer a competition, it was just a show off of skills.
Yuwen Chengdu has lived in the real world for a few months. Although it is not long, he has also learned some uncomfortable skills, such as the most classic one-killing people and killing people.
Before killing someone, first break the other person's Taoist heart.
If you are strong, I will be stronger than you; if you have many moves, I will be stronger than you.
Didn’t Xu Chu always think that he was the best in the world? Then let him see the gap first, and then take it away with one move, so that he doesn't even have a chance to regret it.
The two started fighting, with Yuwen Chengdu becoming more courageous as he fought, while Xu Chu, who was originally shouting, became more and more frightened.
On the city wall, Xu Ding watched this scene and knew that his brother had met a master:
"Ming Jin withdraws his troops and gets Zhong Kang back quickly!"
As a result, after the signal to withdraw troops was sent, Xu Chu could not come back. Yuwen Chengdu entangled him, and his killing moves were like waves, one wave after another. Xu Chu could only defend himself and had no power to break free.
He knew that he had hit a wall and that he was too arrogant in the past, but he had no chance to reflect and regret.
Yuwen Chengdu swung the Phoenix Wing Boring, and a small branch directly cut Xu Chu's shoulder. He screamed and was about to turn around and run away, but Yuwen Chengdu hit him on the back again.
On the city wall, Xu Ding shouted:
"Please spare his life, General, we surrender!"
Yuwen Chengdu was unmoved:
"I killed him for personal vengeance, and it has nothing to do with Liaocheng!"
After that, he swung the Seven-Bend Phoenix Wing Boring and directly chopped off Xu Chu's head.
Tiger Chi Zhongkang died!

Today is just one update, brothers. I will sort out the subsequent plot. This book will be finished by the Spring Festival at the latest. The rhythm of the rest must be fixed and there must be no mistakes.
