Chapter 117: The Big Thief's Fame [Two in One](2/2)

"Hmm." Chen Shou nodded in agreement, and then he felt an inexplicable sense of pride and pride in his heart.

Why?

Because something like this would never happen in his country of Wei.

The Ji Zhao royal family of the Wei State, especially the Crown Prince Zhao Run, are very protective of their own shortcomings. If an army from another country dares to invade the territory of the Wei State and kill the people of the Wei State, the crown prince will be punished ten times.

, come back with a hundredfold revenge.

Even at this point, the Wei people are full of backbone. For example, in the three "Wei-Korean Northern Frontier Campaigns", especially the most difficult "Five-Party Campaign to Defeat Wei", Wei people from all over the country tightened their belts to support the war, even if

The domestic nobles who have always been criticized by the common people for being greedy, selfish, ferocious, and vicious, when the country encountered a crisis, did not hesitate to disperse their family wealth and recruit private armies to help the court resist the invasion of foreign enemies.

In contrast, on the Lu State side, both the royal family and the nobility were quite disappointing.

Perhaps it is not that this country has no warriors, but that the top leaders of this country are too weak. The Duke of Lu lost Pan and the prince lost Xing. After all, they were not as good as King Zhao Si of Wei and Prince Zhao Run of Wei.

Suddenly, Chen Shou's heart moved, and he asked curiously: "Huan Hu, why did you speak for King Lu just now? You and I both know that it was not Sanhuan who gave up Xue County, and King Lu also nodded... Why don't you tell me?

Those refugees tell the truth. If you tell the truth, those Lu people will be extremely disappointed with the royal family and will naturally be willing to regard you as a hero. Isn't that good?"

"Then what?" Huan Hu chuckled and said, "Then you and I will be hated by both King Lu and San Huan?"

As he spoke, he shook his head and said seriously: "If you and I want to gain a foothold in the Lu State, we must rely on the royal family or Sanhuan. Since we have decided to join the royal family, I naturally want to say something good for the royal family and replace Sanhuan."

Step on it..."

"However, by sending troops to Xuecheng privately this time, you violated the royal family's order." Chen Shou snorted and said, "Even I can see that you are taking the opportunity to win over people's hearts and minds. I

If you don’t believe me, King Lu can’t see it…how are you going to explain this later?”

"Explanation?" Huan Hu laughed, licked his lips and said, "When I regain Xuecheng, King Lu will declare that it was his order. In this case, he can't be harsh on me, otherwise wouldn't it be a slap in the face?... Even if this battle

After that, King Lu was wary of me, so what? Didn’t he want to reuse me to suppress Sanhuan? To say the least, even if King Lu had the courage to eradicate me, thousands of people in Lu would also

I won't agree, because..." A somewhat inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he said in a deep voice: "Because I am a hero of the Lu State! I am a meritorious official!"

"..." Chen Shou looked at Huan Hu with his mouth agape, and after a while he nodded and said, "Sure enough, I saw it right. You are cunning, despicable, and shameless... You are truly the greatest evil in the world!"

"Haha, thank you for the compliment." Huan Hu said with a smile: "After a hundred years, I remember to find someone to carve it on my tombstone."

Chen Shou was helpless when it came to such a hob meat that was not oily or salty.

It has to be said that although some of Huan Hu's actions are indeed despicable, there is one thing that cannot be praised or criticized, that is, he is indeed determined to recapture Xuecheng from the Chu army - regardless of whether he recaptures Xuecheng

What is the purpose of .

At least in this aspect, he is much better than Xuecheng Cheng Shou Ji Min.

After a while, when the army passed through a forest, Huan Hu saw Jin Gou leaning against a tree, waiting for his arrival.

"How is the situation in Xuecheng?"

After Jin Gou approached, Huan Hu asked seriously.

I saw Jin Gou, who was over fifty years old and had some gray hair and beard, shrugged and said in a strange way: "The boys under my command are watching. At this moment, most of the Chu troops are in Xuecheng."

'happy'……"

"Oh?" Huan Hu narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "In other words, Chu camp's defenses are empty, right?"

"Hey!" Jin Gou shrugged.

Seeing this, Huan Hu turned to look at Chen Shou and said with a smile: "Brother, it's your turn to take action."

Looking at Huan Hu's smiling face that didn't deserve a beating, Chen Shou wanted to punch him.

Good guy, just now in front of the people of the Lu State, Huan Hu, in order to show his heroic image, took away Chen Shou's opportunity to attack. But now that there are no people of the Lu State to watch, this guy has given up the task of attacking.

It was extremely shameless to kill him!

"How can there be people like you in this world?"

After frowning and saying nothing, Chen Shou finally had no choice but to lead the eight hundred cavalry to take the first step.

Just as the intelligence that Jin Gou had gathered was the same, at this moment, most of the soldiers of the Chu army were burning, killing and looting in Xuecheng. The military camp outside the city was almost undefended, which allowed Chen Shou to kill the Chu army effortlessly.

The camp of the Chu army - pitiful for this Chu army camp, it was attacked at night by Tian Ao and Tian Tian's ancestors and grandson two days ago, and today it was attacked by the Huan Hu army's cavalry at night. The baggage, food and grass in the camp were almost destroyed.

A torch.

This news soon reached the ears of Zhangyang Jun Xiong Zheng and Pengli Jun Xiong Yi, along with the incident that "Chu General Si Dong was killed by Huan Hu".

"What? Si Dong was killed by Huan Hu?"

"What? Our military camp was attacked by Huan Hu's army?"

"Huan Hu...who is that?"

Xiong Zheng, Lord of Zhangyang, and Xiong Yi, Lord of Pengli, looked at each other.

Not to mention, although the former Shouling Lord Jingshe was quite optimistic about Huan Hu and Chen Shou, and even one of the Three Pillars, General Xiang Mo of Chu State also took the initiative to recruit Huan Hu and Chen Shou, but

These two people

His reputation was so unknown in the Chu State that Xiong Zheng, Lord of Zhangyang, and Xiong Yi, Lord of Pengli, thought about it for a long time before vaguely remembering that Huan Hu seemed to be a general under Nangong Yao.

Thinking of this, Xiong Zheng, the king of Zhangyang, and Xiong Yi, the king of Pengli, were furious: even Tian Ao, the famous general of Qi, did not dare to be their enemy and evacuated to the north early. An old man who was under the command of Nangong Yao actually dared to fight with them.

An enemy?

Who is Nangong Yao?

Even though this man was once a warlord who controlled Song County, he was still a low-ranking figure in the eyes of the Chu nobles.

However, this low-ranking Nangong Yao and his former subordinates actually dared to provoke them?

"This is simply unreasonable!"

Immediately, Zhangyang Jun Xiong Zheng shouted: "Wu You (you)!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a general came out and clasped his fists: "The last general is here!"

"You lead your subordinates to kill those people who don't know whether to live or die on my behalf!" Zhangyang Jun Xiong Zheng ordered.

"As you command!"

Chu general Wu You cupped his fists and left.

As a result, after waiting for about an hour, instead of receiving news of Wu You's success, we received the sad news that Wu You had died in battle.

"Reporting to the two princes, General Wu You... he was killed!"

"What?!" Zhangyang Lord Xiong Zheng and Pengli Lord Xiong Yi looked at each other in disbelief.

You know, Wu You was a very brave and skilled general under them. How could he be killed by the enemy so easily?

Frowning, Zhangyang Jun Xiong Zheng asked: "Who killed Wu You?"

The messenger who came to deliver the bad news said: "The enemy general claims to be Chen Shou, the general under Huan Hu."

Peng Lijun Xiong Yi also asked: "How many soldiers did Wu You bring?"

"General Wu You has brought about five thousand troops." The messenger replied.

Zhangyang Jun Xiong Zheng and Peng Li Jun Xiong Yi looked at each other, feeling a little weird.

Five thousand people were defeated by a mere seven to eight hundred cavalry?

Even the general who commanded the army was killed by the enemy general?

From this point of view, this cavalry is quite impressive.

At this moment, another messenger hurriedly broke into the commander's office and reported eagerly: "To report to the two princes, there are a large number of troops in the north, under the banners of "Suiyang" and "Huan".

They are approaching Xuecheng. According to visual inspection, there are probably tens of thousands of them!"

"Suiyang Army..."

Zhangyang Jun Xiong Zheng frowned: "Isn't that the designation of the Wei army?"

Or an informed general explained: "After Nangong Yao rebelled against Wei, the Wei State had already revoked the designation of the Suiyang Army. The Suiyang Army now belongs to the army under Huan Hu."

As long as it was not Wei's army, there would be no problem. Immediately, Xiong Zheng, Lord of Zhangyang, and Xiong Yi, Lord of Pengli, ordered all their troops to dispatch in an attempt to defeat Huan Hu's army when it first arrived.

As a result, it is not difficult to guess that Xiong Zheng, Lord of Zhangyang, and Xiong Yi, Lord of Pengli, paid a heavy price for underestimating their enemy.

You must know that most of the Suiyang army under Huan Hu are Nangong Yao's old troops. They are elite troops that have received rigorous training in the Wei state. Moreover, they have received a lot of war weapons from Qufu this time. How can they be good at it?

What's more, although Zhangyang Jun Xiong Zheng and Pengli Jun Xiong Yi have hundreds of thousands of troops under their command, the Suiyang army under Huan Hu also has a lot of troops, at least 50,000, even if they have twice the strength

The gap, but these gaps are enough to be made up by the armaments and the training of the soldiers. What's more, Huan Hu and Chen Shou are both strong generals with outstanding military strength. The subordinates of Zhangyang Jun Xiong Zheng and Peng Li Jun Xiong Yi can't compete with them at all.

These two generals competed against each other.

After suffering a defeat, Xiong Zheng, Lord of Zhangyang, and Xiong Yi, Lord of Pengli, led the remaining defeated soldiers and fled back to Xuecheng in a hurry, preparing to regroup their morale and fight again. Unfortunately, Huan Hu did not give them a chance. After occupying the Chu army camp,

He ordered the siege of Xuecheng, and at the same time built siege equipment to prepare for the siege.

Within two days, Qi generals Tian Ao and Tian Tian led their troops and returned. Together with Huan Hu's army, they launched a two-sided attack on the Chu army in Xuecheng, causing the Chu army to suffer unspeakably.

Less than three days later, before Xiong Zheng, the Lord of Zhangyang, and Xiong Yi, the Lord of Pengli, sent word of the request for help to Xiong Tuo, the Lord of Yangcheng, Xuecheng was captured by Huan Hu and Tian Ao. .

Xiong Zheng, Lord of Zhangyang, and Xiong Yi, Lord of Pengli, fled in haste, and nearly 100,000 Chu troops also fled in all directions.
