With Lu Xun's order, the Wu troops on the south gate tower gave up resistance and fled below the tower.
Under the protection of Han Dang and other Dongwu generals, Lu Xun led the four thousand Wu troops on the city tower to break out toward the west gate.
The west gate is the weakest defense point of the Shu army and is the most suitable for a breakout.
When they arrived at the west gate, a sudden change occurred. The west gate, which had been peaceful just now, was suddenly filled with fighting and the sky was filled with military flags.
It turned out that Li Jun had long expected that Lu Xun would escape to the west gate, and had laid an ambush at the west gate, waiting for Lu Xun's Wu army to arrive.
Fortunately, Han Dang and other Soochow generals fought hard to break through, and Lu Xun was able to escape among the rebels.
But Ximen is close to the river, and there are no ships to cross the river. The generals of Soochow are helpless.
Could it be that the whole army is really going to be wiped out in Yiling City?
When I am anxious,
Lu Xun ordered the soldiers to use materials to make a fire. For a moment, fireworks shot into the sky at Ximen.
Immediately afterwards,
About thirty warships appeared on the river. From a distance, their military flags were written with the Chinese character "Wu" written on them. There was also a large ship at the front with the Chinese military flag with the Chinese character "Lu" flying in the wind.
what happened?
All the Soochow generals looked at each other, then looked at Lu Xun,
Lu Xun sighed helplessly, "This is our army's retreat. I thought it would not be used, but unexpectedly, it backfired and it was used after all."
"The Governor is really powerful, I will admire you." Han Dang bowed deeply to Lu Xun,
"The governor knows things like a god, he is really amazing."
"Grand Governor, it turns out that you have already thought of a way to retreat after the defeat. You are truly a man of God."
All Soochow generals also echoed in unison.
Lu Xun ignored them and asked in a cold voice, "Who is willing to lead the troops to cover the boarding of our warships before they land?"
Everyone's expressions changed drastically. If they stayed to cover themselves, they would undoubtedly have a narrow escape and a dead end.
No one wants to stay,
In a while and a half,
Very quiet,
Xu Sheng's face was solemn and he strode out, "Grand Governor, the battle at Yiling was all due to my carelessness. The general is willing to stay and cover the troops before retreating to the warships."
"Father, you are already old. Leave this task of protecting the army to me." Xu Kai, who was behind Xu Sheng, rushed in front and bowed to Lu Xun, "Grand Governor, I have fought against Li Jun in the end. Knowing who he is, you can give me the task of covering the retreat of the army."
Lu Xun looked at Xu Sheng and his son with admiration. Although Xu Sheng was careless, he was very loyal to Da Wu.
"Okay, Xu Kai, I'll leave this task to you. Whether our army can retreat safely depends on you alone. If our army successfully retreats, you will have done a great job. You can turn your merits into a crime and return to Jiankang. I will plead with King Wu." Lu Xun said solemnly.
"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief." Xu Sheng and Xu Kai bowed to Lu Xun again.
Before leaving, Xu Sheng looked at Xu Kai reluctantly, "Erlang, you have to come back alive."
"Yes!" Xu Kai nodded heavily, suppressed the emotions in his heart, and strode away.
Li Jun's side,
All the soldiers of the Bailian Army who had led Yiling City were heading towards Ximen Pier to kill.
This time, he wanted to capture Lu Xun alive.
Lu Xun is the coach of Soochow. If he can be captured alive, it will be a great achievement. From now on, Shu will be unrivaled in the war against Soochow.
Xu Kai led five hundred Wu soldiers and waited for a long time.
Aiming at Li Jun, a volley of arrows was fired first.
The soldiers of the White Army raised the long shields in their hands to defend themselves.
Li Jun looked at Wu Jun and roughly counted, but it was only five hundred. He couldn't help but be a little surprised to see Xu Kai among them.
Is this Xu Kai really crazy? You actually want to use 500 people to resist your 3,000 elite White Army troops?
but. Li Jun thought about it and realized that Xu Kaiben must have been determined to die and had no intention of returning to Soochow.
Li Jun shouted loudly to Wu Jun opposite, "Xu Kai, I think you are also a loyal general, and I also love talented people. Why don't you surrender now, and I can fulfill the promise I made to you at Ximen and let you How about you becoming the deputy general of the Bailian Army?"
Xu Kai was furious and rushed out from the army, "Li Jun, I, Xu Kai, am the general of Wu. I swear to the death that I will not surrender to your Shu Kingdom, let alone you, a despicable and shameless villain. Don't bother trying to persuade me to surrender." If you want to come, come here quickly, I, Xu Kai, am waiting for you Shu thieves to come and die."
"Yeah!" Xu Da, who was standing next to Li Jun, exploded instantly. Who in the world dares to insult Li Jun, the leader of his faith, in front of Xu Da?
Xu Da raised his head and roared, raised two long knives, and strode out, "Damn Wu Gou, he doesn't know good and evil, he has the guts to come out and fight to the death with your Grandpa Xu Da."
"It's you again, you black-faced monster! In the battle for the west gate, if your master Li Jun hadn't fired an arrow from behind, I would have killed you with one shot and kept you alive until now." A contemptuous smile escaped from the corner of Xu Kai's mouth.
"Wu Gou, don't be so arrogant. If you hadn't taken advantage of the chaos to attack me, I, Xu Da, could have let you get closer. Don't talk nonsense, come out and fight me." At this time, Xu Da's face was darkened by Xu Kai's anger. He was red, gnashing his teeth, and extremely angry.
"Since you are here to die, I will help you." Xu Kai sneered, holding the black spear in his hand, and rushed towards Xu Da.
"Yeah!" Xu Da was furious again, roaring angrily, holding two long knives high, stamping on the ground, sending smoke and dust flying, and rushed towards the opponent.
The two of them arrived in a hurry.
Without hesitation, he took the weapon and attacked the opponent.
Xu Da slashed at Xu Kai with two long knives at the same time. Countless sword lights cut through the air, and the sword force was swift and fierce.
Xu Kai was calm and unhurried. The dark spear in his hand was like a long black snake. In the fierce light of Xu Da's sword, he stabbed back and forth and attacked left and right with ease.
Although Xu Da was as tall as a mountain, he was also nimble. He dodged left and right and avoided Xu Kai's lightning-fast spear.
Xu Kai was very surprised. He didn't expect that such a reckless man could have such martial arts.
In an instant, he put away his suspicion of underestimating the enemy and sped up the gun in his hand. It became faster and faster, and pear blossom-like spear points appeared on Xu Da's body. Xu Da was shocked. After all, he was too big and could not stand in front of Xu Da. During the charge between the two armies, Xu Da may have had a size advantage, but facing the fierce battle at this moment, Xu Da was somewhat outmatched and his physical strength was gradually depleted.
Xu Da, who had just used the sword as fast and fierce as a tiger, had begun to show signs of exhaustion, and the sword force had become much slower.
"What? That's all." Xu Kai laughed, full of fun,
"Wu Gou, don't bully others too much." Xu Da raised the long knife in his hand and slashed at Xu Kai's face. This knife brought all the strength of Xu Da's body, and the force of the knife was like a violent storm, with infinite power.
Xu Kai's expression changed and he hurriedly stepped back.
Xu Da's long knife fell into the air and struck a huge boulder nearby.
"Bang!"
The boulder hit by the long knife was cut in half at once, with gravel flying and smoke flying.
"What a powerful sword skill!" Xu Kai was shocked,
