The spring night in Yan Bei was cold.
The Jingzhou Army was resting and keeping watch in an orderly manner.
After the generals finished their discussion and went to rest, Xu Cheng stepped on the cold moonlight and came to the city tower.
The guards were like wolves in the night, constantly paying attention to their surroundings.
Xu Cheng saw Chu Dashan.
"Prince?" Chu Dashan did not expect the prince to come to the city gate tower so late at night.
"Old Chu? Why are you still guarding at night?”Xu Cheng asked.
"I'm fine. When I was fighting with wangye, I didn't sleep for five days and five nights.”Chu Dashan smiled.
The two of them stood on the city gate tower and chatted.
Chu Dashan had been a soldier for most of his life and was also from Youzhou. He had been guarding Yan Bei with Xu Yi. Most of the time, he was fighting the Turks in the north to prevent them from taking a step south.
Later on, Xu Yi rebelled against the Sui Dynasty and submitted to Li Tang. He was granted the title of King of Yan Bei. Chu Dashan followed King of Yan Bei and fought against Liu Heita and the others. It could be considered as a war.
"With the King of Yan Bei, there will be peace in Yan Bei.”Chu Dashan said proudly," For so many years, there has been no war in the three states of Yan Bei.”
Xu Cheng sighed.
His father's reputation in Yan Bei was unparalleled.
No wonder Li Yuan had no choice but to confer him the title of King of Yan Bei, the only King of the opposite sex in the Great Tang.
Chu Dashan opened his mouth and continued to chatter.
He also married a wife and had a child.
In the past few years, when there was no war, he would return to his hometown every year.
"My kid has a big fart. He plays with knives and guns all day long and wants to learn martial arts.”Chu Dashan grinned." I don't know him. My son doesn't have any bones."”
"Xu Yi used to say the same thing about me. I can't even be as domineering as his fart when I'm practicing my saber skills.”Xu Cheng spread his hands.
"Hahaha, your highness loves to brag." After Chu Dashan finished laughing, he looked at Xu Cheng and said," Since Your Highness mentioned Your Highness, I, Old Chu, will say a few more words. Just treat it as an old soldier from Yan Bei saying it to Your Highness…"
Xu Cheng straightened his body and listened attentively.
Chu Dashan paused for a moment and continued,""I, Old Chu, am a boor. Why would I be willing to die for the King of Yan Bei? There was nothing else. His Highness was protecting Yan Bei. Therefore, I, Old Chu, am willing to die for Your Highness.
Not only me, but the entire Yan Bei army can do it. I'm the only one left among the few rough men who joined the army together. Death isn't scary at all. Our Yan Bei army can die, but we can't retreat. Where can we retreat to? Look, behind us is our hometown.”
Chu Dashan thought of his hometown.
The little wimps were playing in the fields, laughing and cheering.
The adults would often shout for food before the brats would rush back and wolf down a few bowls.
Then, he ran out again. Because he had agreed to play a war game, he raised his wooden sword and shouted,"Charge!"
With such scenery in his hometown, so what if I, Old Chu, die ahead?
Xu Cheng bowed deeply towards Chu Dashan.
The surrounding soldiers were all dumbfounded.
The prince bowed to the ground and bowed to the old soldier.
Chu Dashan was stunned at first, then he grinned.""Prince, aren't you being pretentious?"
"This bow of mine is for the sake of snatching meat from you in the future.”
"Hahaha, damn it, as expected of His Highness's child.”
……
The next day.
The battle was reignited. The enemy had increased the number of catapults and were shooting wildly!
The enemy infantry pushed the siege chariots to the city gates and rammed them.
Xu Cheng held a long saber in his hand and smashed it down from the city gate tower in front of the enemy's siege vehicle like a dazzling white rainbow.
An incomparably sharp saber qi shot out.
Boom!
The siege vehicle exploded.
The white streak of light rammed into the city, and the enemy troops in front of the city gate were instantly wiped out.
One man and one saber!
"I, Xu Cheng, will charge the formation for this old soldier today!”
The white streak of light flashed past, and wherever it passed, the vanguard of the enemy was sent flying.
The guards on the city wall were stunned for a moment.
"What are you daydreaming about? Take advantage of the chaos in their vanguard army and shoot!”
The defending soldiers immediately regained their senses and their fighting spirit soared.
Damn it, the prince charged towards the enemy's formation alone. It was really f * cking exciting.
Xu Cheng charged past the enemy vanguard and arrived in front of their archers.
In front of them was a row of shield-wielding infantry, shielding the archers from the rain of arrows.
They quickly formed a line of defense, raised their shields, and stood in front of the archers, watching this uninvited guest who had suddenly arrived.
Xu Cheng passed through it!
They were instantly split into two halves, flying to the sides and crashing down.
The enemy archer formation was instantly thrown into chaos, and a bloody mist burst out.
The pressure on the Jingzhou Army on the city gate tower was greatly reduced, and they took the opportunity to shoot wildly!
Xu Cheng's saber danced in the air as if he was chopping vegetables.
Swish!
An arrow flew past his blade and hit the enemy that was charging at him.
At this moment, one of the archers on the city wall broke out in cold sweat.
"Zhang Dabiao, are you a f * cking spy?" Chu Dashan asked. He almost shot the prince."
"My…my hands were shaking…" Zhang Dabiao said bitterly.
Chu Dashan scolded him with a smile." Shaking your head? Take aim!"”
He knew that this kid wanted to help the prince.
Xu Cheng pulled out the arrow from the enemy's corpse and continued to charge!
"Boss, look, the prince is killing the enemy with my arrow." Zhang Dabiao suddenly became excited.”
Chu Dashan grinned." Alright, you're lucky. You'll be able to brag in the future."”
