Chapter 430 Fighting General?

When Liu Xun regretted not falling, the newly joined cavalry had already stopped.

The cavalry split down the middle.

Dozens of armored generals rode up on horseback and stopped a hundred steps in front of Liu Xun.

A general rode up and pointed at a young man in armor at the front of the cavalry, carrying a lance and a sword, and said, "This is the son-in-law of Yuan Gong, the governor of Jizhou, and the new governor of Xuzhou, Zhang Sui."

He pointed to an old man in a tight-fitting short coat beside Zhang Sui and said, "This is Tian Feng from another family in Jizhou!"

"Please invite General Liu Xun, the governor of Lujiang County, to come up and have a chat!"

The Lujiang County navy all looked at Liu Xun in the front.

The regret on Liu Xun's face turned into shock.

The son-in-law of Yuan Shao, the governor of Jizhou?
New Xuzhou Mu?

Is there another family in Jizhou with abundant land?
No wonder that guy Lu Su dared to set a trap for himself!
Liu Xun felt a little angry and helpless.

He was a subordinate of Yuan Shu and was well aware of the power of Yuan Shao, the governor of Jizhou.

Not just in terms of identity.

This is even more true for strength.

Especially now that Yuan Shu has proclaimed himself emperor, his strength has been greatly weakened.

Liu Xun suppressed his uneasiness and rode forward to meet Zhang Sui and Tian Feng.

Zhang Sui and Tian Feng also rode forward.

The three met.

Liu Xun was the first to bow to Zhang Sui and Tian Feng, and said with a forced smile: "General Zhang, Lord Tian, ​​we have always kept to ourselves. Why are you forcing me today? What do you want?"

Tian Feng smiled and said, "Liu Junshou."

"Qianshan County, the seat of Lujiang County, has been captured by our army."

Liu Xun's eyes narrowed slightly, and he rejected it categorically: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Liu Xun laughed and said, "My Qianshan County is well-defended. How could it be easily taken?"

"The garrison general of Qianshan County is Zhang Xun, a loyal and honest man—"

Tian Feng pointed at the 6,000 naval forces behind Liu Xun and said, "The main force of Lujiang County is here. Life and death are just a matter of thought."

Pointing at the thousands of cavalrymen behind him, Tian Feng said in a deep voice: "Liu Jun Shou, you don't think you can defeat my thousands of troops, right?"

"The news here has already been passed to Qianshan County by our army."

"At present, Qianshan County has at most several thousand soldiers and horses."

"Besides, there is no backup."

"Ever since Cao Cao was ordered to suppress the bandits, your lord Yuan Shu has been hoarding food and fodder and defending Shouchun."

“How can Qianshan County save itself from the siege?”

"Liu Junshou, don't forget that Zhang Xun is from Langya, Xuzhou."

Pointing at Zhang Sui, Tian Feng sneered and said, "And this is my new master of Xuzhou."

Liu Xun looked at Tian Feng with anger in his eyes.

His body was shaking slightly.

Everything is within their calculations!

If I had known that Lu Su was such a person, I should have torn him into pieces!
No, if he manages to escape this time, I will definitely wipe out the three clans of Lu Su!

Tian Feng saw that Liu Xun looked unhappy, but he did not let it go. Instead, he continued, "Liu Junshou was loyal to Yuan Shu, and he was also loyal to Jizhou Mu."

"But now Yuan Shu is in decline, while Jizhou Mu is in his prime."

"How should I choose, Magistrate Liu? This is so difficult to decide."

The entire Ruxu Port was dead silent, with only the occasional snorting sound from the war horses.

Liu Xun turned his head and looked at the six thousand navy soldiers behind him. Looking at their hopeful eyes, his teeth almost broke.

His own soldiers were also afraid.

Think about it too.

The opposite side has a similar number of cavalry.

Among them were thousands of heavy cavalry.

How can my 6,000 navy be a match for them?
But how can I be willing?
How can I be willing!

He is now not only the governor of Lujiang County, but also a general under Yuan Shu.

How could Yuan Shao, the governor of Jizhou, give him the same treatment after his surrender? No, once he surrendered, he would just be a general under the command of Yuan Shao's son-in-law.

The status and treatment are very different!
Seeing that Liu Xun obviously did not want to surrender, Zhang Sui whispered to Tian Feng beside him: "Sir, I think Liu Xun does not want to surrender."

"Besides, this person is greedy by nature, which is why he fell into the trap."

"If he is allowed to live, he will be tricked today, but he may not learn his lesson next time."

"Today he was forced to surrender to me due to the difference in strength."

"Once our army withdraws one day, he may rebel."

"The gap in strength between the two armies is huge now, he must understand."

"But he can't see the difference between the generals, maybe he can give it a try."

Tian Feng glanced at Zhang Sui worriedly.

Zhang Sui smiled and said, "Sir, you still don't trust me? If that doesn't work, then we can send out our entire army to kill all these six thousand navy soldiers!"

"We don't have a navy, so we really can't cross the river to the south."

"However, our infantry is definitely something that Sun Ce of Jiangdong cannot resist."

"We will hold on to the land and give up the port."

"After we deal with Yuan Shu, we can deal with Sun Ce in time."

After hearing what Zhang Sui said, Tian Feng nodded, although he was still a little worried.

His biggest goal in this expedition to Ruxu Port was to capture these 6,000 navy troops.

It would be best if we could defeat these 6,000 navy soldiers just by fighting with their generals.

Seeing Tian Feng's agreement, Zhang Sui rode his horse forward a few steps and said to Liu Xun with a smile, "Liu Junshou, in this way, I am the chief general and you are also the chief general."

"A large-scale war between the two armies is something we don't want to see, I think."

"Well, I got an idea."

"Let's have a duel, just you and me."

"If you can defeat me, I will withdraw my troops immediately and never set foot in Lujiang County again."

"I even sent people to Qianshan County immediately to call back the soldiers who were besieging Qianshan County."

"If I can defeat Magistrate Liu——"

Zhang Sui looked at the six thousand navy soldiers behind Liu Xun and said seriously, "Then all the soldiers, join me in guarding Lushan County."

Liu Xun looked at Zhang Sui.

Over the years, he has been hiding in Huainan and knows little about the situation in Hebei.

His focus has always been on Huainan.

Therefore, he only knew that there was a fierce general named Sun Ce in the Huainan area.

He didn't even care about Taishi Ci.

He had not heard much about Yuan Shao's son-in-law in front of him.

Moreover, the other person looked to be in his early twenties, very immature.

Although he is not as powerful as Sun Ce, he is also not as strong as Ji Ling.

However, he was also one of the first people to follow Yuan Shu in his campaigns.

It's really unacceptable if we can't even deal with a young man.

The key is--

Liu Xun's eyes fell on the heavy cavalry behind Zhang Sui.

If they don't fight the generals, the enemy will come and his six thousand navy will not be able to stop them.

The other party didn't want to start a fight directly, probably because they were greedy for his six thousand navy.

Thinking of this, Liu Xun's face darkened, and he made a gesture of invitation and said, "Since General Zhang said so, I, Liu Xun, will naturally agree. However, don't blame me for bullying the weak later."

After saying that, he waved his hand behind him.

Six thousand navy troops slowly retreated to make room.

Sima Yi behind Zhang Sui saw this and said anxiously, "Brother, it's dangerous. Let me replace you! You are the commander, but you are not good at martial arts, so you are no match for him. What if something unexpected happens?"

Beside Sima Yi, Guo Jia also said worriedly: "Bocheng, don't be reckless!"

Zhao Yun: “.”

What are these two people doing?
