Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 377 Dong Xi's Obsession

When they heard that Dong Xi wanted to surrender, Peng Qi and Peng Shi immediately refused.

I'm still counting on this guy to explore the way for me, how can I make him surrender!

but
What this guy said does make some sense. To put it bluntly, the soldiers and horses under his command are inferior to those of Xing Daorong. It seems more or less inappropriate to let him go into battle.

Peng Qi and Peng Shi looked at each other, communicated with each other, and immediately had an idea.

But Peng Qi said, "If you are short of 3,000 soldiers and horses, I will give them to you."

"Marshal Dong, you can't just retreat without fighting. Xing Daorong hasn't come to kill you yet, and you're already discouraged!"

Dong Xian laughed secretly in his heart when he heard what Peng Qi said.

These Shanyue people really don't have much knowledge.

It was obvious that he was afraid and asked him to be the pioneer, but now he is the one talking about him instead.

However, Dong Xian had originally intended to fight to the death with Xing Daorong, and the words of the Shanyue King were exactly what he wanted.

Dong Xi immediately said, "You two may not know that Xing Daorong is indeed very powerful. Even if it's 5,000 to 5,000, I have no idea of ​​defeating him."

"Whatever, whatever, there are countless people in Jiangdong who have surrendered to him. I will surrender to him as well, so it won't be shameful."

After these words were spoken, the two kings of Shanyue became anxious again.

But he called out: "Xing Daorong has raised a big banner, saying that he wants to annihilate the bandits, and he said that King Dong, you are willing to surrender, but I'm afraid it won't work."

"Why not try your best? Maybe there is still a chance."

Dong Xi heard this and suddenly said, "Since we are going to fight hard, why did the two kings only give us 3,000 troops?"

"It's time for the entire army to go up and fight to the death!"

"Are you trying to get me to test the situation and risk my life to help the two kings?"

Peng Qi and Peng Shi didn't expect that Dong Xi's words would reveal their thoughts. They immediately began to hesitate and didn't know how to respond.

Dong Xian didn't dare to offend the two men too much.

After all, to fight against Xing Daorong, we still have to rely on Shanyue.

If he relies on himself, he will never succeed even if he is given a hundred chances!

Dong Xi then calmed down and said, "You two, Xing Daorong is just a human being. He was so proud of his victory that he was careless when he came here today. He only brought 5,000 soldiers with him."

"I will lead two thousand men as the vanguard and pretend to be defeated in order to lure Xing Daorong and his army into the mountains."

"You two are familiar with the terrain in this mountainous area and are good at fighting in the mountains. When you see Xing Daorong coming, rush up and kill him!"

When Peng Qi and Peng Shi heard this, they never expected that Dong Xi, after beating around the bush for a while, suddenly didn't want the 3,000 troops they were going to give him!
This certainly sounds good!
Using Dong Xi as bait, he only needs to ambush in the mountains, and there will definitely be no danger!

As for whether Dong Xi's plan can succeed?
Anyway, his plan involves his own life. If it fails, it has nothing to do with him!

Thinking of this, the two men agreed immediately and did as Dong Xi said, asking him to fight the enemy outside while the two of them lay in ambush in the mountains.

However, Xing Daorong pulled up the three large flags in order to intimidate the Shanyue people.

Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the border, they saw that only Dong Xi was leading the troops to respond.

At first glance, Xing Daorong saw that Dong Xi had only about two thousand troops behind him. He immediately knew that there must be a problem!

He paused and was about to speak when Ling Tong had already stepped forward.

He stepped forward, whipped his whip and shouted, "Dong Xi! Now Jiangdong has surrendered to a wise leader, how can you not surrender?" "But do you think that using the remaining soldiers to become bandits will show your ability?"

Dong Xian felt hatred when he saw Xing Daorong, and hatred when he saw Ling Tong!

In his eyes, Ling Tong is definitely a traitor!
But he shouted: "Ling Tong! How many Jiangdong heroes have fought to the death for Jiangdong, but people like you who change their minds according to the wind are extremely hateful!"

After saying that, he rode out on his horse and said, "I will come and kill you today!"

Ling Tong didn't hesitate and swung his sword forward!

The two fought to the death for a while, but they were evenly matched.

In the flying dust, the two war horses were like flags flying in the wind, interweaving each other's shadows.

The sword in Ling Tong's hand made a series of sounds of breaking through the air, and the silver blade flickered in the sun like stars.

Dong Xian was waving his spear, his stern face showing his free and easy movements. The spear drew streaks of cold light in the air like a dragon.

For a moment, the fight became extremely fierce.

Ling Tong's swordsmanship was swift and vigorous, and each strike was accompanied by a whistling force. Dong Xi, on the other hand, used his sharp spear skills to forcibly neutralize Ling Tong's attacks one by one.

The sound of their horses' hooves was like a war drum, excitingly striking everyone's heartstrings.

Bao Long looked a little nervous as he watched from Xing Daorong's side.

But he said: "General, these two really fought hard right from the start!"

Xing Daorong said: "Dong Xi has no master outside and no loyalty inside. He lives entirely on hatred. When he sees us, he will naturally fight to the death."

Bao Long listened and nodded in understanding, but said, "You said that guy is also strange. Sun Quan has escaped, but he is still committing crimes here. Could it be that Sun Quan saved his life?"

Xing Daorong is actually quite difficult to understand.

This is totally unnecessary!

To put it bluntly, Sun Quan was just a prince who had lived under the banner of the Han Dynasty for more than four hundred years. He did not think about how to serve the country, but was so loyal to the Sun family. This was something that a time traveler like Xing Daorong could not understand.

But so many people died for the Yuan family back then, and we really cannot look at these people with the eyes of later generations.

but
It would be fine if you, Dong Xian, were confused alone, but it's a bit hateful that you brought so many people with you!
In fact, Xing Daorong didn't pay much attention to what happened between Ling Tong and Dong Xi on the battlefield.

They both knew the abilities of the two men. Unless Dong Xi had a big outburst today, it would be unlikely for him to defeat Ling Tong.

Instead, it was the soldiers who were Xing Daorong's focus.

In fact, at first glance, Xing Daorong noticed something wrong on the faces of those soldiers.

These soldiers didn't have any fierce expressions on their faces, instead they all looked confused!

Xing Daorong looked at it and knew what was going on.

How could they not be confused? They were all regular soldiers, but ended up being led astray and became bandits. They were even treated as if they were going to be wiped out. Even if they were mixed up in the group, they would still be confused!
Thinking of this, Xing Daorong immediately asked Bao Long beside him to ask Ling Tong to come back.

Bao Long watched the two men fighting fiercely, and when he heard Xing Daorong want to recall Ling Tong, although he was confused, he immediately did so.

He sounded the horn directly, ordering Ling Tong to return to the army.

Ling Tong heard that Dong Xi was fended off with a sword and returned to the battle formation. Just as he was about to ask, he heard Xing Daorong shouting loudly: "Men of Jiangdong!"

"When you are really going to die, why don't you give yourself the name of a bandit?"
