NOVEL FROG Chapter 74
Outside Xia Pi City, at the East Gate.
Early in the morning, the guards on the top of the city were yawning and sleepy.
Suddenly, they heard the gongs and drums outside the city!
Then, there was the sound of clattering horses!
The sudden movement woke everyone up in an instant, and they were secretly shocked.:
"Enemy attack?!"
"Is Cao's army coming to attack the city again?!"
In the midst of panic, fear instantly spread among many soldiers!
Before they could fully understand the situation, some people were so frightened that their faces changed drastically and they were trembling with fear!
There was no doubt that after being trapped for many days, their morale had already dropped to the freezing point!
Now they changed color when they heard about Cao's army, and they looked like frightened birds!
Until a quick-reacting soldier opened his eyes and saw the situation outside the city clearly?
Suddenly someone shouted:
"Brothers, don't panic!"
"There aren't many Cao's troops at the front!
It seems... it's not an enemy attack?!"
With this shout, the uneasiness in the hearts of the soldiers on the city wall gradually eased, and they immediately started to discuss.
"What's going on outside the city?"
"Who knows! Looking at the scattered figures of the vanguard troops, there are no more than 200 people at most!
They can't be here to attack the city, right?"
"Tsk! After all this fuss, only this few people showed up? I was worried for nothing! I don't know what they are up to."
"Humph! Who cares what they are here for!
With so few people, if they dare to mess around? They are simply courting death and sending us their heads!"
"That’s right! It was just a false alarm. I got scared for nothing!"
"……"
Amidst the whispers,
Cao Jian was seen leading a small group of men and horses to approach and stop outside the city gate: not too far away, almost just out of the range of the archers on the top of the city!
Then, at his signal, the soldiers behind him formed groups of three or five and began to shout in turn:
"Lu Bu! Open the city gates! My second son is here to challenge you! If you have the guts, don't be a coward, come out and fight!……"
"Lu Bu, if you have the guts, come out and fight my Second Young Master! Coward! You are so cowardly and only know how to hide in the city like a woman!"
"……"
Amidst the rounds of shouting, the enemy soldiers on the city wall finally figured out the purpose of Cao Jian's group of men.
Soon, they started to laugh!
"Hey! So you are the fearless young man?
How dare you be so bold as to come and challenge our lord? Isn't this courting death?"
"That's right! That bastard leader looks like a decent person, but he is actually a moron? Doesn't he know that our lord is the best general in the world?
With his appearance, he actually dares to challenge us in a duel? He is really tired of living!"
Brothers, ignore them!
Haha, you are right!
Let them shout as they please, and we just watch the show from the top of the city! When they get tired of shouting, they will probably leave naturally.……
……
Seeing that after a long round of challenges, there was still no movement from the top of Xia Pi City.
Xu Chu, the"tiger idiot" beside Cao Jian, couldn't help but start to get anxious:
"Second Young Master! Those idiots didn't seem to pass on the news, they just watched the show on the top of the city wall! What should we do next?"
After hearing this, Cao Jian smiled calmly:
"Don't worry! Give the order, continue to challenge! Just shout as hard as you can! No matter how ugly it sounds, no matter how you curse, I don't believe they can bear it?
With Lu Bu's temper, as long as he hears the news, he will definitely come out……"
Xu Chu understood immediately after hearing this.
Under his command, the shouts of war gradually became sharper and more piercing:
"Traitor Lu Bu! Come out and die!——！"
"Lu Bu, you slave of three surnames, come out and die!!"
"Lu Bu, you coward!
My second son took your city, killed your generals, and robbed your wives and concubines!
Didn't you want revenge? Now my son is here! (To read exciting novels, go to Flylu Novel Network!)
You call yourself the best in the world, but now you don't even dare to take revenge or fight?!"
"Coward!——！！"
"Lu Bu! Are you wilting?!!"
"……"
Watching the battle outside the city escalate!
It soon turned into shouting, cursing, and even personal attacks!
The soldiers on the top of the city could not help but frown, not knowing how to respond for a moment?
Some insisted on ignoring it:
"The lord is now busy looking for Miss Lingqi's whereabouts in the city, and has no time to care! I don't think it's necessary to report the news to the city, right?
That's right! Who doesn't know our lord's temper? If we go in to report the news now, wouldn't it be a direct hit on the muzzle of the angry gun?...
There are also those who hesitated and wanted to enter the city to send a message:
"But those guys outside are shouting more and more unpleasantly, and the more they curse, the more angry they are!
If we don't tell the lord, is it really okay?
Avoiding the battle will only make the enemy army mistakenly think that our lord is afraid!"
"You are right! What if the lord knows about this later?
He will think that we concealed military information and damaged his reputation. He may be severely punished!
Alas! It’s all our lord’s fault. His temperament is really fickle!
Now it’s not right to report it, and it’s not right not to report it! What should we do?
……
Amidst the chattering, the soldiers on the city wall instantly became a mess.
Who knows how long it took?
The movement here finally attracted the attention of Wei Xu, one of the"Eight Warriors"!
"What's going on? What are you arguing about?"
"Don't you know that the city is in chaos now? Is the master angry because he can't find the young lady?
There is so much noise on the top of the city wall, do you all want to be beaten?"
After muttering a few times, he quickly climbed up to the top of the city wall to check the situation.
The shouts outside the city fell into Wei Xu's ears, which originally made him quite disdainful.
However, after climbing up to the top of the city wall and seeing Cao Jian's appearance clearly?
This member of the"Eight Warriors" was instantly frightened and began to shiver:
"Damn it! Why is it him?"
"That damned evil star actually came to challenge me for a duel?!"
""You're here just in time... You're here just in time!!!"
There was no doubt that he had witnessed Cao Jian's terrifying fighting power with his own eyes!
At that time, there were four of them who went to attack Xuzhou City together!
As a result, after just one encounter, Song Xian and Hou Cheng, two of the"Eight Generals", were killed on the spot by Cao Jian!
That terrifying scene still left a huge psychological shadow on Wei Xu!
Now that he saw his enemy right in front of him, how could he remain calm?
"Damn it! Why didn't you report such important military information immediately?!"
"Don't you know that the young man who challenged the enemy at the foot of the city is the culprit who seized our Xuzhou City?
It was him who killed three of our generals in front of the battle line, and even robbed the lord's concubine!
This thief is hateful and hateful, and the lord has long hated him with gnashing teeth!
In fact, he can be regarded as the mortal enemy that the lord wants to kill the most at the moment!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's face changed instantly!
Immediately, Wei Xu trembled and shouted:
"Quick! Quickly pass on the news that this thief is here to challenge us!"
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that should not be missed!!"
"If the lord knew about this, he would definitely go into battle himself and kill him on the spot!"
"……"
