This man actually reacted quite quickly. When he noticed Chu Xi's sword scratching his brocade robe, he quickly flew up and flipped to avoid Chu Xi's next attack.

Chu Xi's plan failed, but he was not disappointed. He turned the hilt of the sword in his hand, aimed it at the man's shoulder, and hit him hard. The man felt pain in his shoulder and fell down, kneeling on one knee with the sword stuck in the ground.

The man raised his eyes with gloomy eyes and looked hatefully at the young man in the moon-white brocade robe.

No wonder.

With his quick attacks and superb swordsmanship, no wonder he could defeat so many generals of Western Chu?

Chu Xi demonstrated the tactics of using softness to overcome hardness, using speed to overcome slowness, and using the opponent's force to counter attack.

No matter what tricks he used, he would be restrained by Chu Xi in the end and would be completely unable to fight back. He felt powerless, as if he was punching cotton.

It seemed that no matter how hard he tried, he could not defeat the boy in front of him and was destined to lose to him.

Most of the generals of Western Chu were good at using spears, but this man was an exception. He had been practicing sword since he was a child.

Although he was indeed arrogant and domineering, and had caused many troubles in Xijing, many officials disliked him, but for the sake of the Fifth Prince, they dared not speak out.

However, he does have some talent in martial arts, and he has learned to use the sword quite well.

However, this still cannot prevent him from being led around by Chu Xi and played around in circles.

Chu Xi had fought with many Western Chu generals and had much more experience than before. This man could barely learn swordsmanship, but he used a heavy sword and relied on his arm strength.

It was not as fast as Chu Xi's thin sword, it was like a ghost, making it impossible to find its trace.

Although both use swords, his sword moves are not as good as Chu Xi's, and his attacks are not as fast as hers. As for his arm strength, he is not as good as Qi Minsong.

To this end, Chu Xi thought of a solution. This person's identity is very important, and it seems that he can suppress the dominance of Qi Minsong, the commander-in-chief, in the army.

This means that this person is an important person.

Chu Xi originally planned to solve the problem as quickly as possible, and make a quick decision, and was too lazy to waste time on him.

But after changing his mind and realizing that this person had a special identity, Chu Xi retracted his original move, held the sword in his hand horizontally, and slashed it across his arm with force.

The pain from the sword cutting him made him lose strength, and the heavy sword in his hand fell to the ground.

Moreover, during the fight between the two of them, this man was careless and, relying on his good arm strength, was able to suppress Chu Xi slightly. He actually chased after him, ignoring the shouts and reminders of his followers behind him.

The followers behind him repeatedly called him to come back, but he didn't even turn his head. He was sure that Chu Xi avoided the frontal attack and attacked from the side, and must be afraid of him.

He believed that as long as he defeated Chu Xi in this battle, his voice and position in the army would increase.

And what he wanted to do was not just that, he wanted the Qi family to fall completely and never get up again.

Qi Minsong is just a dog of his cousin, yet he dares to challenge him. Who does he think he is?

I just want to defeat Chu Xi and let everyone know that just because Qi Minsong can't do it doesn't mean I can't do it!

Chu Xi first scratched the man, leaving several cuts on his body, forcing him to lose his mind and launch a full-scale attack.

Then he took this opportunity to capture the person alive.

First, he used one knee to push hard into the man's abdomen, causing him to fall backwards like a kite with a broken string. He fell to the ground suddenly, and the pain in his abdomen made him scream.

There was also the pain of being flown out and falling, which was like being torn apart all over the body, and the pain was unbearable.

Before he could stand up cursing, a sword was already across his neck.

The follower on the opposite side was so frightened that his face changed drastically, "Master!"

Just as he was gathering his men to attack, Chu Xi mercilessly raised his hand and signaled the archers on the city wall to shoot.

Sure enough, the next second many of the cavalrymen in the front were hit by sharp arrows and fell off their horses.

Chu Xi picked up the man who was sitting on the ground in pain and brought him back to the city.

The city gate was open only a crack, just enough for two of them to pass through.

Before the Western Chu army could rush over, they were slightly stopped by the sharp arrows shot from the city wall. This little time was enough for Chu Xi to lead his men back to the city.

As soon as she dragged the man by the collar into the city gate, the soldiers behind the gate slammed the door shut, re-bolted it, and secured it.

Tang Yuhuai came down to meet Chu Xi, and was a little surprised to see that he was dragging a Western Chu general in his hand.

"Why did you bring him back here?"

"This guy should be of some use. Using him to negotiate with Xichu might give us a little surprise."

Even if you can't really get any substantial benefits or advantages, you can at least buy yourself some rest time.

Emperor Tianwu passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne, so the national treasury should be empty. At this time, if we can exchange the people we have for some substantial silver and food, it would be a good deal!

Tang Yuhuai was skeptical of this idiot who could not last more than twenty moves under his bare hands, "What's the use of it? It's better to kill him with a sword and save trouble."

The man was originally glaring at Chu Xi fiercely, but after hearing what Tang Yuhuai said, his instinct for survival prompted him to subconsciously beg for mercy.

"No, no, no, don't kill me. I'm the fifth prince's cousin! I'm the commander-in-chief of Western Chu. They will definitely take me back."

"The fifth prince's cousin?" Tang Yuhuai looked doubtful. "Commander-in-chief? Just such a fool?"

He was full of doubt and disbelief about the man's words.

Chu Xi thought about it and felt that this man should be telling the truth. Ever since he came to Xi'an City to reinforce, problems seemed to have arisen within Xi Chu.

There seemed to be a contradiction in the deployment of military power, and the person who sat on horseback to lead the troops on several expeditions was replaced by this young man.

Instead of the people they are familiar with, such as Qi Minsong.

It can be seen that the internal conflict in Western Chu has become more serious than they had imagined.

At this time, if someone could add fuel to the fire, they might fall apart before the battle is over!

"Has Xi Chu run out of people to help? How could such a person be the commander-in-chief of the three armies?"

Chu Xi glanced at the man who was trembling with fear and agreed with Tang Yuhuai's words.

"It doesn't necessarily depend on ability. The Fifth Prince probably doesn't trust the others, so he sent him out."

"It seems that the internal disputes among the princes in Western Chu are no better than those in our Great Zhou." Tang Yuhuai had great doubts about the candidate sent by the fifth prince.

How could such an arrogant person who refused to listen to others' advice become a commander?

"With such nepotism, the Fifth Prince's character and ability cannot be much better, I guess?"

Chu Xi still agreed that the fifth prince had come to Beijing to pay his respects to the late emperor on his birthday, and at that time he teamed up with the seventh prince and attempted to kill Zhou Yichen.

She did not comment on this man's character, but only looked at the way he did things, which he did, nepotism, and arbitrary and domineering.

If Western Chu really fell into his hands, there would be no need for the Great Zhou to attack, and it would soon go downhill.

"Appointing him as the commander-in-chief means that the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers of Western Chu are placed in his hands. This is too irresponsible and he does not regard the lives of the soldiers as human lives!"
