Chapter 399 Fighting Generals in Front of the Formation
Luo Ge felt very unhappy about Du Hu's idea.
He angrily rebuked Du Hu.
"My people have finally been accepted and protected by General Liu. This is such a rare thing. Can't you see the situation clearly? The Han army under General Liu is extremely powerful and cannot be defeated by us. You want to kill you."
All of my subordinates?”
Du Hu couldn't agree with this.
"Since you have decided to rebel, you no longer care about life and death. Aren't you and I the same? We have agreed that we will not regret it even if we die. Now if you want me to surrender to others, there must be a way to explain it.
, you said he was a hero, I also heard that he was a hero, but I have never seen him with my own eyes, so I don’t know if it is true."
"When you find out whether it's true or not, your life will be gone!"
Luo Ge said angrily: "You are always so accepting of death, can't you be a little flexible? You are very good at fighting, but there are always people who can fight better than you! You don't think about yourself, you also have to think about the subordinates who follow you.
Bar?
The Han army is strong, and General Liu's status is very high. If our people follow General Liu in battle and make meritorious deeds, we will no longer have to worry about being bullied. This is a good thing that no one else can ask for. Now that you have such a good opportunity, you
You still want to do such a thing?"
Du Hu still shook his head.
"Now that I have made my decision, I will not change it. You go back and tell General Liu that I have only one request. If he satisfies me, I will surrender. Otherwise, destroy me!"
Seeing that there was no hope of persuasion, Luo Ge could only leave angrily, go back and tell Liu Bei about the matter, and apologize to Liu Bei.
"Du Hu is straightforward and accepts death. Once he understands the truth, eight cows can't get him back. I have known him for twenty years and he has always been like this. He has never changed. I really can't persuade him. Please treat me.
sin."
Liu Bei shook his head and helped Luo Ge up.
"You have tried your best. This cannot be considered your fault. I have no reason to blame you. Since he has such thoughts, then I will satisfy him."
Liu Bei's subordinates were very dissatisfied and tried to dissuade him one after another.
"What is your identity? What is his identity? How is he qualified to fight you?"
"In your capacity, you can directly order him to be shot with just one sentence. How can you fight him?"
"Your safety is the most important thing, I can't just watch you do dangerous things!"
"The thief is obviously unwilling to surrender! Please give the order to surround the city with a large army and capture it!"
Not to mention Jia Xu and Xun You, even Cheng Pu, Han Dang and other generals could not accept this condition. They all tried to dissuade Liu Bei and asked Liu Bei to take a tougher stance and completely eliminate this army and that arrogant warrior.
Liu Bei thought about it and felt that this was also the case. The other party was indeed a bit arrogant.
But he didn't want to fight an unnecessary battle, so he looked at the six main generals who were following him on the expedition.
"Since I'm not going to attack, then it's up to you to fight that guy on my behalf. Let me think about it..."
Liu Bei's eyes wandered among the six people for a while, and finally fixed on Yan Xing.
Thinking of his record of almost killing Ma Chao in single combat, it was certain that he had relatively strong individual fighting ability, so Liu Bei named Yan Xing and asked Yan Xing to attack and fight Du Hu.
Yan Xing was very happy and immediately expressed that he would thwart Du Hu's arrogance for Liu Bei.
When Du Hu learned about this, he did not object and nodded to agree to the war. So on the outside of the city, with the two armies confronting each other outside the city, Yan Xing and Du Hu started a battle in front of the battle.
To be honest, Liu Bei, who grew up reading the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, was quite fascinated by the battle between generals in front of the battlefield. He felt that this was something that could really make the battlefield exciting.
However, only after living in this era did he realize that battles between generals were never the mainstream of war. It can only be said that under certain special circumstances, there will be single duels between generals as a condition to boost morale.
.
In addition to this, in most cases on the battlefield, generals are the key targets of protection who are firmly protected by their own soldiers. Generally speaking, generals are not in any danger until all their own soldiers are dead.
Just kidding, people who have not experienced it personally cannot understand how much resources it takes to cultivate a successful general.
Such precious military resources have to be sacrificed on the battlefield of personal force. No matter how you think about it, you feel that it is not worth it.
Generals are responsible for the outcome of wars and the survival of the army. They will not personally take risks until critical moments. Even if they charge, they often charge with elite cavalry. The main gains are made by the soldiers, and generals will only do it when
Finally, do something symbolic to finalize the deal.
The current situation is indeed quite special and does not often appear on the battlefield, but once it occurs, everyone is very excited and looks forward to the results of the battles in front of the battle, cheering and encouraging them.
Yan Xing is a typical northwest man, tall and strong. After joining Liu Bei's command, he became more powerful and more majestic because he was provided with sufficient army food.
And Du Hu is also a burly man with a fleshy face and rough, yellow-black skin. He looks like a gorilla that jumped out of the forest. He is the kind of guy who looks like a prisoner. You can tell at a glance.
This guy is definitely not a good person.
The two met in front of the formation, exchanged harsh words, and then each side beat drums to encourage them. The two rode forward and started a round of fighting.
Du Hu didn't want to lose face, and Yan Xing wanted to perform well in front of Liu Bei no matter what. No one wanted to lose, so they started a fierce fight from the beginning.
Du Hu wielded a knife produced by his tribe and fought with Yan Xing, while Yan Xing fought with the Han army's standard ring-shou knife. The two of them fought for more than ten rounds without deciding the outcome, and each fired real fire.
Fighting state.
Du Hu relied on his own strength and swung the knife in his hand to chop Yan Xing. Not to be outdone, Yan Xing raised his knife to fight with him. Repeated several times, the knife in Du Hu's hand suddenly broke. Yan Xing moved forward with his knife.
He was about to hit Du Hu, but stopped at that moment.
"Admit defeat?"
Yan Xing stared at Du Hu.
Du Hu gritted his teeth and glared at Yan Xing.
"The knife broke, not me who lost! How could I admit defeat?"
"good!"
Yan Xing lost his knife and started a hand-to-hand fight with Du Hu.
The two of them did not use weapons and started a physical fight similar to wrestling in front of the formation. They roared repeatedly and even rolled into a ball on the ground. The dust flew up from the fight in front of the formation.
The two armies each beat drums and cheered, shouting loudly, cheering for each other's players, shouting until their faces turned red and their necks thickened.
Du Hu finally ran out of energy and was punched in the face several times by Yan Xing. His nose and face were bruised and swollen, and his mouth and nose were bleeding. He was unable to continue fighting. He collapsed on the ground and gasped for air, unable to get up again.
Yan Xingze forced his tired body to stand up, raised his fist towards the Han army camp, and roared, declaring his bravery.
The victory was decided, and the Han army's camp burst into warm cheers.
Liu Bei personally stepped forward to support Yan Xing, hugged him, and wiped the dirt and sweat from his face.
"Well done! You are indeed the person I like!"
Yan Xing chuckled, his face full of embarrassment.
Du Hu was defeated, but he did not change his mind. He kept his promise, opened the city gate, ordered his troops to leave the city, handed over their weapons, and surrendered to the Han army.
The Han army also kept their promise and did not harm them. They accepted their surrender, collected their weapons, and then lined up into the city to inspect the situation inside the city.
Liu Bei hired a military doctor to apply medicine to Du Hu and bandage his wounds. Luo Ge followed Liu Bei and accused Du Hu angrily.
"There was no need for so many twists and turns. You insist on doing such a thing, but now you are beaten, or you still have to open the city. Are you satisfied? Why don't you know how to work around and save these unnecessary things?"
Du Hu looked indifferent.
"I will not be convinced until I receive this beating. After this beating, I know that General Liu is worthy of his name. My subordinates will also know that General Liu has very strong warriors under his command. Only in this way will they be willing to surrender.
Otherwise, there will be many things to do."
Liu Bei listened on the sidelines and suddenly had a different view of Du Hu and gave him a high look.
