Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 535 Soldiers approaching the city!

Hearing Xu Shu's words, Ju Shou not only didn't feel at ease, but became even more anxious, saying: "Why did Yuan Zhi say that? No matter how elite the master's personal guards are, what is the identity of the master?"

Thinking about it, Ju Shou was as anxious as ants on a hot pan.

He was still thinking about following Yuan Tan and accomplishing the great feat of transforming King Xuan beyond the Great Wall, suppressing foreigners in Jibei, and leaving his name for eternity.

And to do this, Yuan Tan must survive, and must survive long enough!
Thinking of Yuan Xi and Yuan Shang's two crooked melons, Ju Shou felt a little nauseous.

That is to say, Yuan Tan is not in front of Jushou now, otherwise Jushou would be anxious to grab Yuan Tan's sleeves on the spot, so that his good lord can remember well what it means to be a son of a daughter who can't sit down.

You are already waiting, why do you still like to lead troops into battle?
Seeing Jushou's anxious appearance, Xu Shu felt a little helpless.He could only remind Jushou and said: "Mr. Gong and whether it is appropriate or not, the teacher has led the troops out of the city now, and the Wuhuan people are about to arrive at the city. The most urgent task is to defend Ji Town, not to discuss whether the teacher is right or wrong!"

After hearing this, Jushou woke up like a dream, and fell into deep thought. After a moment, Jushou sighed helplessly, with a bit more worry in his tone, and said: "Yuanzhi, did you make any arrangements when my lord left?" Strategies to defend the city with soldiers and horses?”

Xu Shu nodded.

Jushou settled down a bit, he trusted Yuan Tan's ability, but the fact that Yuan Tan suddenly led his troops away alone made him a little worried.

Now that Yuan Tan had heard that Yuan Tan had arranged for troops to defend the city, he immediately felt relieved and asked, "How many troops and horses have my lord arranged to defend the city? Could it be that the Xuzhou army was mobilized to go north?"

Xu Shu: "??? Sir, what are you talking about? How much food will the Xuzhou army spend thousands of miles north? Isn't the garrison of Ji Town enough to resist the Wuhuan people?"

Looking at Xu Shu who was in a daze, Ju Shou was also in a daze.

After a while, Yuan Tan finally realized that he didn't send another soldier to support him from the beginning to the end, and even brought the most elite guards in Ji Town out of the city to attack most of Su Puyan.

Unscrupulously handing over the defense of the entire Ji Town to the Ji Town Army who has just trained for less than a month?

Ju Shou couldn't help but stumbled and said, "How can Yuan Zhi be so foolish? Although the soldiers of Ji Town are commendable for their loyalty and bravery, they have been tortured by Liu Ying's villains for more than a year. Now how can they have the strength to withstand the onslaught of the Wuhuan people?"

Xu Shu didn't panic anymore after hearing the words.

The old Mr. Jushou in front of him couldn't understand no matter how much he said.

Only after he saw the power of the English longbowman with his own eyes, would he understand why Yuan Tan was so bold.

Coincidentally, before leaving Ji Town, Yuan Tan also told Xu Shu that when the Wuhuan people attacked the city, it would be best for Xu Shu to take Jushou to see the power of the longbow with his own eyes.

After all, this thing will be handed over to the aristocratic family in the future, as one of the important aids when they open up the grassland.

Now Xu Shu didn't explain too much anymore, but said with a smile: "Mr. Jushou, don't worry, the teacher has already made arrangements, and Jizhen will be safe!"

Hearing Xu Shu's words, Ju Shou smiled wryly, but he really had nothing to say now.

As Xu Shu said, Yuan Tan has already left with his troops, so what else can he do.

You can't go out of the city to chase Yuan Tan now.

Even if he could really leave the city, he couldn't catch up.

Seeing that Jushou was still looking depressed, Xu Shu got up immediately and said, "Forget it, if you don't see the appearance of your husband, if you don't see it with your own eyes, I'm afraid you won't feel at ease. Please come with me to the North City Gate and see me when the time comes." How to get back to Wuhuan!"

Seeing that Jushou still couldn't lift his spirits, Xu Shu made a special point: "Sir, do you still remember that the teacher let you see the longbow before?"

Ju Shou was taken aback when he heard the words, and then suddenly remembered the longbow that Yuan Tan brought when he came to the door.

At that time, Jushou still felt that the longbow was not very outstanding.

Now that I think about it, could it be that there is another mystery, but I just don't know it?

Seeing Xu Shu's confident face, Ju Shou became curious about the longbow, nodded immediately and said, "That's very good, please ask Yuan Zhi to lead me the way."

Xu Shu laughed: "It's easy to say, easy to say."

Xu Shu and Jushou left the tent of the Chinese army together, and headed directly to the north gate of Ji Town. Unexpectedly, just as they boarded the gate, they received the sentry from below to report the information.

"Report! Report to Master Chang Shi, Wuhuan Wang Nanlou led 1 light cavalry to gallop, and has already thrown off most of them, and arrived [-] miles outside our town of Ji Town. It seems that he is adjusting his formation and calling craftsmen to cut down trees. , Prepare to attack the city!"

"Oh?" Xu Shu was not surprised but pleased when he heard the words, turned his head to see Ju Shou with a more worried expression on his face, and said with a smile: "It seems that you don't have to wait any longer, you can see the power of the longbow right away. "

Ju Shou was still a little worried, and said: "The Wuhuan people captured thousands of craftsmen in Xiangping, Beiping, and now they are bringing craftsmen to attack the city. If they build siege equipment to fight, how should we defend?"

This time, before Xu Shu could speak.

Pan Gui, who was guarding the north city gate, also heard Jushou's question.

He didn't recognize Jushou, but he did recognize Xu Shu. Seeing that Jushou was following Xu Shu, he didn't look like a follower, but they were on equal footing.

Immediately knowing that Jushou's status is noble, he didn't dare to be too presumptuous, but said loudly: "Don't worry, this gentleman, no matter how many siege machines they build, it will be useless if they can't reach our city gate!"

Ju Shou turned his gaze when he heard the words, but it fell on Pan Gui.

Seeing that Pan Gui was only a small captain's uniform, and he had not had time to change into the colonel's uniform at this moment, he had such courage, so he couldn't help asking curiously: "This general, is he not afraid of Wuhuan?" A human attacking horse?"

Pan Gui smiled casually when he heard the words, clapped the longbow in his hand, and said: "When the Wuhuan people can go under the city wall and build ladders, sir, please ask me this question again!"

Seeing that Pan Gui was so calm.

Jushou's restless heart gradually calmed down, he stroked his beard and said with a smile: "So, I'm looking forward to the heroic appearance of the general on the battlefield."

Pan Gui smiled sheepishly when he heard this, and patted his head in embarrassment: "It's easy to say, easy to say, sir, it's really absurd."

While the two were talking, a soldier on the watchtower of the city wall suddenly pointed down and shouted to Xu Shu and others on the city wall: "Chang Shi, the enemy army has been found, and they are quickly heading towards our town of Ji." near!"

As soon as Jushou heard this, he subconsciously touched the scabbard at his waist, as if he was ready to go into battle to kill the enemy.

Don't think that Jushou is a literati, so he is really a powerless thing.

That is just to give these literati elites the words of self-effacing.

As a matter of fact, the Confucian scholars in the Han Dynasty were excluded from those who were trying to gain fame and make up for it.

Anyone who can be called a celebrity in the local area, more or less, must master some riding and archery swordsmanship.

So Xu Shu was not surprised when he saw Jushou was about to draw his sword. It was just a little funny. He patted Jushou on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Sir, don't worry, let's see how heroic the soldiers are in defeating the enemy! You don't need to draw your sword now, sir." .”

Hearing Xu Shu's words, Ju Shou also realized that his reaction was a little violent, and immediately let go of his hand on the scabbard, nodded at Xu Shu, and turned his eyes to the outside of the city.

At this moment, thirty miles outside the city gate, there was so much smoke and dust that could only be brought up by most cavalry rushing into battle.

The people standing on the city wall of Ji Town were already clearly visible.

Wuhuan's vanguard finally approached the city!
