Lu Bu's strongest strategy

Chapter 265 Anger

Wei Xu said slowly, "General Song, we are not in the city, and there are no reinforcements outside, so we can only struggle to defend the city here, but since there are no reinforcements, we have no chance of turning defeat into victory.

General Hou was right just now. More than 300 soldiers were lost in just one day. We all know how many soldiers there are in the city. Even if they are all lost, I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on for long at this rate.

The most important thing is, I am afraid that when half of our soldiers and horses are lost, our troops will not be able to defend all four walls, and it will be a matter of time before the enemy breaks through. "

Hou Cheng heaved a long sigh when he heard these words, "General Song, you understand this time, we are struggling now, but we are just persevering to live longer, there is no chance."

Song Xian was already sweating profusely after hearing what the two said, and his face turned pale, "Since you know, why don't you dissuade Marquis Wen, why don't we evacuate the city?"

"Evacuate?"

Hou Cheng suddenly sneered, and stretched out his finger, "If we evacuate before the enemy comes, there is still some possibility, but now that the enemy has surrounded the city, you still want to evacuate now, it is no different from dreaming."

Song Xian sighed weakly, "Could it be that we really have nothing to do?"

Hou Cheng shook his head, "General Song, if you had a way, I'm afraid you would have figured it out a long time ago. Since you can't figure it out, do you think others can figure it out?"

Song Xian wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, "Could it be that we will all be buried in this city in the end?"

Hou Cheng nodded without hesitation, "Yes, this is our final result."

Song Xianqiang said with a smile, "No, Marquis Wen will definitely find a way to take us out, and we will escape. It will definitely not be like what you think."

Hou Cheng nodded seriously, "General Song, you are right. Marquis Wen may indeed kill him, and there is a high chance that he will get out alive, but we, the people, will probably stay here forever."

Song Xian stared blankly at Hou Cheng, and after a long time, suddenly smiled wryly, "If that's the case, then everyone should have a good drink, anyway, you won't be able to drink it anymore."

Hou Cheng asked slowly, "General Song, are you not afraid of being beaten with a military stick?"

Song Xian shook his head and said with a wry smile, "General Hou, don't be joking, the matter has come to this point, hitting the army stick is nothing, let's have a good drink first."

Wei Xu on the side had already blushed from drinking, "General Song, you are right to think so, since you will die sooner or later, why don't you drink to your heart's content."

Hou Cheng watched the two exchange cups, and suddenly said, "You two generals, do you want to die or live?"

Wei Xu suddenly sneered, "General Hou, aren't you talking nonsense? Who wants to die if he can survive?"

Song Xian nodded, "Yeah, it's great to be alive. You can still drink fine wine and enjoy life every day. Once you die, you will have nothing."

After hearing the two's answers, Hou Cheng's eyes flashed with hesitation, and he raised his wine glass, "Two generals, let's drink one."

The three of them raised their glasses at the same time and drank the wine in one gulp.

After Hou Cheng put down the wine glass, he poured wine for the two of them and said slowly, "You two generals, if you still want to drink good wine, I have a way to pour it. Do you want to hear it?"

Song Xian waved his hands a little irritably, "General Hou, when is this happening? If you have any solution, please tell me as soon as possible. We are here to listen."

Hou Cheng put down the wine jar and said slowly, "If the city is breached, we will surely die."

At this point, Hou Cheng paused and lowered his voice and said, "But if we are together with the people outside, even if the city is destroyed, we will not have to die by then."

"Together?"

Song Xian was stunned for a moment, but quickly realized that he jumped up suddenly and exclaimed, "General Hou, what are you talking about, you guys?"

Wei Xu had already grasped the handle of the knife, looked at Hou Cheng with burning eyes, and asked slowly, "General Hou, do you want to join the enemy?"

Hou Cheng had already said what he said, but he was no longer afraid in his heart, and nodded calmly.

"Two generals, what you said just now is very clear, as long as the city is breached, we will all die together.

Therefore, if we want to escape this disaster now, we have no other choice but to join the Jizhou Army. Unless you want to die with the city, then just treat my words as meaning nothing. "

Wei Xu snorted coldly, "But you already said it."

Song Xian grabbed Wei Xu's hand in a hurry, "General Wei, don't get angry, General Hou has drunk too much, he was talking nonsense just now, don't take it seriously, put away the knife quickly, otherwise you will hurt your peace." alright."

Hou Cheng sneered, "General Wei, I didn't expect that you were beaten with a military stick just now, which made you lose face. You are still loyal now, and I admire you very much."

Speaking of this, Hou Cheng looked at Wei Xu with burning eyes, and said in a tone full of sarcasm, "General Wei, it's just your loyalty, what do you get in return?"

Hou Cheng pointed at Song Xian and said slowly, "The Bingzhou Cavalry is the most elite unit. Being able to become the leader of the Bingzhou Cavalry is also Lu Bu's most trusted subordinate.

General Song, you are not Lu Bu's most trusted subordinate, you are just a dispensable brat. "

Hearing this, Song Xian's complexion changed, and he wanted to defend himself, but thinking that Hou Cheng's words made sense, he could only sigh and stop talking.

Hou Cheng turned his head to look at Wei Xu, and sneered, "General Wei, what about you, have you become the commander of Bingzhou cavalry and Lu Bu's most trusted subordinate?"

"I?"

Cold sweat broke out on Wei Xu's forehead, "I don't need it."

Hou Cheng nodded, "General Wei, logically speaking, your relationship with Lu Bu should be the most suitable commander of the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry, but you are not, and another elite troop is trapped in the camp, it seems that it has nothing to do with you.

What a pity, it's a pity about your relationship with Lu Bu, what did you get, but you were almost beaten with 100 army sticks. "

Having said this, Hou Cheng waved his hand, "By the way, I remember that when I was beaten with a military stick that day, I saw mockery in the eyes of those generals. I don't know if I was dazzled.

There are also those soldiers, there is something wrong in their eyes, as if they look down on you, and they don't know if it is true or not. "

"enough!"

Wei Xu roared angrily, "General Hou, don't talk nonsense, you are talking nonsense without the things you said."

Hou Cheng snorted coldly, "General Wei, am I talking nonsense, don't you know better than me, hahaha!"
