Chapter 227 The brave deserve respect!

A green blade flashed.

"Ah!"

Screams were heard, and more than a dozen of the soldiers' heads fell to the ground, with their headless bodies falling on the city wall.

Although the screams were loud, they were quickly drowned out by the loud sounds of killing in the attack and defense.

Chen Wu looked at the hundreds of enemies that fell from the sky with a look of shock, and asked incredulously: "How did you get here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at the young man in white clothes holding a folding fan in the front and exclaimed, "Are you Ye Feng?"

Ye Feng gently waved his folding fan: "You guessed it right, but there is no prize."

"Do you have any last words?"

Chen Wu pinched his arm hard with his hand, and felt a piercing pain. He opened his eyes again and smiled bitterly, "No wonder you were able to break through Hulao Pass in one day. It is said that the reason was that Xu Rong defected to the enemy and betrayed Dong Zhuo. It seems that he had no choice but to do so."

"With such a miraculous magic, which city in the world can stop you?"

"My lord is your enemy, I'm afraid..."

Ye Feng smiled faintly: "Do you want to consider surrendering?"

Chen Wu sighed and drew the sword from his waist: "Although I don't know my own strength and I am like a mantis trying to stop a chariot in front of you, but my lord has been very kind to me."

"Come and fight!!"

Ye Feng's eyes flashed with praise: "Liu Bei is good at controlling his subordinates, not bad."

"But anyone who stands in front of me is an enemy, and I will not hold back."

"kill!!"

Guan Yu chuckled, raised his Green Dragon Crescent Blade, and was about to attack.

Zhao Yun, who was standing by, jumped up and said, "Take my shot!"

The strength of a late Heavenly General burst out instantly, and terrifying energy poured out from the tip of the spear.

A huge flying bird roared and flew towards Chen Wu.

The terrifying aura alone made it difficult for Chen Wu to breathe. He bit his lips tightly, trying to drive away the fear in his heart, and chopped straight ahead with the big knife in his hand.

Even though he knew the gap was huge and that this sword could not stop the attack of Zhao Yun, who was in the late stage of Heavenly General, he still did not hesitate.

The white flying bird condensed with strong energy instantly knocked the big knife in Chen Wu's hand away.

A beam of white light pierced through his chest, and Chen Wu spat out a mouthful of blood. Feeling that the vitality of his internal organs was about to be completely cut off, he looked in the direction of Runan City and murmured, "My lord, I will go first."

After saying this, his body fell heavily to the ground.

Chen Wu's tenacity and loyalty made Guan Yu and Zhao Yun look at him with a little more respect.

"This man is a man of integrity and loyalty, but unfortunately he chose the wrong master."

Ye Feng nodded slowly: "Give him a proper burial. Brave men should be respected."

"But before that, we need to deal with the resistance on the city wall."

"Here!!"

Guan Yu and Zhao Yun jumped down, holding the Green Dragon Crescent Blade and the Longdan Bright Silver Spear in their hands like the scythes of the god of death reaping lives. Wherever the two of them went, corpses were everywhere and blood flowed like a river.

As the news of Chen Wu's death spread throughout the city walls, the siege came to an end at this moment.

Two days later.

On the city wall of Runan.

Liu Bei looked towards Yingchuan with tears in his eyes.

"General Chen Wu died on the Yingchuan city wall, and Ye Feng occupied Yingchuan in two hours."

Zhang Fei, Sun Qian, Xu You, Jian Yong and other confidants behind him were stunned at first, and then they sighed: "I didn't expect that we couldn't even last a day in Yingchuan City, which we have been running for a month."

"The combat effectiveness of Ye Feng's army is unimaginable."

Zhang Fei's eyes were filled with brutal murderous intent: "If an enemy comes, we will fight back; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. We have no way to retreat, so we can only fight to the death." "I want to see if Ye Feng can defeat our Runan in one day."

"Brother, I will have people seal the four gates with bricks and fight him on the city wall."

Having said that, regardless of whether Liu Bei agreed or not, he walked straight towards the city.

Sun Qian and Jian Yong's eyes were full of determination, but Xu You's eyes flickered. But what could he say at this juncture? How should he persuade?

Liu Bei wiped the tears from his eyes and looked at the three people in front of him: "Cao Cao, Liu Biao, Liu Yao, and Tao Qian have already sent troops to rush over. They will arrive in Runan in half a month at most and relieve us."

"But the problem is that Ye Feng's army will arrive in Runan in five days. Can we hold them off for ten days?"

Sun Qian, Xu You and the other two remained silent.

They felt that there was enough time before news came from Yingchuan.

But now.
Who can guarantee that we can hold on for ten days?

Even if the four gates were blocked, the city still could not be defended. Let alone the generals under Ye Feng, who could stop them?

As long as one person climbs onto the city wall, all the defense lines will be torn apart in an instant.

The top-level combat power is not enough.

After a long while, Xu You said softly, "If Ye Feng attacks the city personally, considering that he has reached the level of a divine general, I'm afraid no one can stop him."

"Although I don't want to admit it, Runan is not a dangerous pass. I'm afraid we can't defend it."

"With the four gates closed, we have no way to retreat. We will die for the Han Dynasty, so we are naturally fearless."

"But my lord, you are a descendant of the Han Dynasty. If you are buried here, the Han Empire will be hopeless."

"Therefore, I ask you to think twice before acting and stop General Zhang's rash decision."

After saying this, he knelt on the ground, his beard standing upright, his face full of loyalty, as if he was considering everything for Liu Bei.

Sun Qian and Jian Yong were stunned. After a brief pause, they also knelt on the ground and said, "My Lord, Ziyuan is right. This is not the time to act on impulse."

"As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. My lord, you cannot live and die with the city."

Liu Bei personally helped the three people up and sighed, "The whole world belongs to the Han Dynasty. Even I, the uncle of the Han Dynasty, dare not risk my life to defend the city. How can the soldiers fight to the death to defend the city?"

"Who can stop Ye Feng?"

"What's more."

"Besides, even if you want to retreat, where can you retreat to?"

"Although the world is vast, there is no place for me, Liu Bei, to stay!"

Jian Yong and Sun Qian looked thoughtful.

Xu You secretly breathed a sigh of relief, glad that he had not misjudged Liu Bei. Now he only needed a step to avoid having to face Ye Feng in Runan City.

His mind was racing, Xu You was thinking about how big the world was and where he could slow down Ye Feng's pace.

Suddenly, his eyes sparkled: "My lord, I have something to say, but I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"Ok?"

"You three are all my confidants. You should say what you should say, and what's the harm in saying what you shouldn't say?"

"But it doesn't matter!"

Xu You said: "The cavalry under Ye Feng's command have experienced the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and have been tempered by the battles with the Wuhuan cavalry and the Xiliang cavalry. By taking their essence, they have long become the world's top elite division."

"The north has many plains, which is the best battlefield for cavalry. We have no advantage at all in a field battle with them."

"If we avoid their attack and focus the battle in the south, their most powerful weapon will be useless, and our chances of winning will simply increase."

"south?"

"You mean Jingxiang?"

Xu You's eyes flashed with a gleam of light: "Yes, it is the land of Jingxiang!"
