Six hundred and sixtieth chapters make a covenant before the battle
Du Xiang, whom Liu Fang was looking for, was the deputy head of Moxiu Hall. This time Liu Yongjun attacked Wei County, many disciples of Moxiu Hall participated and went with the army, and the leader among them was Du Xiang.
Upon hearing Liu Fang's call, Du Xiang, dressed in casual clothes, quickly walked up to Liu Fang, bowed and saluted, and said, "Prince Ning!"
Just as Liu Fang was about to speak, he glanced left and right, then pulled Du Xiang two steps aside and asked in a low voice: "Du Xiang, are you confident of killing Liu Xiu?"
"This..." Du Xiang looked confused and replied in a low voice: "Prince Ning, there must be many guards around Liu Xiu. I'm afraid it will be difficult for this villain to get close to him."
Liu Fang asked seriously: "What if we fight alone?"
"If you are fighting alone, I can give it a try!"
When Liu Fang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
Du Xiang is relatively low-key, mature and calm. Since he said he could give it a try, he must be 50-60% sure. He pondered for a moment and said: "You change your armor and come with me to see Liu Xiu."
!”
"Yes!" Du Xiang bowed and responded.
Following Liu Fang's order, Du Xiang found a general of similar stature to him and put on his military uniform and armor. Then, Liu Fang, surrounded by generals and guards, walked out of his camp and ran straight to Liu Fang on the opposite side.
Go away showily.
When the two sides were still seven or eight steps away, Liu Fang tightened the reins and asked the horses to stop.
He looked Liu Xiu up and down. Liu Xiu looked to be in his twenties, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, a face as white as jade, a handsome appearance, and an air of elegance.
It is hard to imagine that such a young man conquered Hebei and established the Jianwu court in Luoyang in just one or two years.
Liu Fang stared at Liu Xiu for a moment, raised his head and said, "I am Liu Fang, Prince of Ning. Who are you? Tell me your name."
While Liu Fang was sizing up Liu Xiu, Liu Xiu was also sizing up Liu Fang. Liu Fang was nearly forty years old, with mediocre facial features and unimpressive appearance, but his aura was not weak, especially his pair of sparkling eyes, which revealed a clear sense of expression when he looked at people.
A sharp burst of energy.
Hearing Liu Fang's question, Liu Xiu smiled calmly and said word by word: "The Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xiu!"
As soon as he said these words, Liu Fang's expression suddenly changed, and the light in his eyes became sharper. He said in a solemn voice: "There can only be one emperor in the world, and a great man can only have one emperor!"
Liu Xiuda nodded, saying that Liu Fang's words were correct and he agreed with them.
He said quietly: "The Han Dynasty has already inherited the great power, and Liu Yong still proclaimed himself emperor in Suiyang, which is really an act of treason against the Han Dynasty! It is not only a shame to the people of the world, but also to the ancestors of the Han Dynasty. Liu Fang, you
As a descendant of the Han family, you should abandon the darkness and embrace the light, and never act as an aid to the tiger again."
When Liu Fang heard this, his nose was almost twisted with anger. He laughed angrily and asked: "Liu Xiu, what a shameless person! Why is it that you are the orthodox Han Dynasty when you proclaim the emperor in Hebei, and my eldest brother proclaims the emperor in Suiyang?
, becomes an act of treason?”
Liu Xiu said lightly: "The late emperor and the 11th emperor are now in Luoyang."
The eleven emperors and gods were all in Luoyang, so the emperor of Luoyang was naturally the orthodox member of the Han family. Liu Fang couldn't think of anything to refute for a while. He glared at Liu Xiu without saying a word.
Liu Xiu looked around, changed the subject, and said seriously: "Liu Fang, your troops have no way to retreat now. The life and death of these tens of thousands of soldiers depend on your thoughts. If you are willing to abandon the dark side and surrender to the bright side, we will lead the way."
If you surrender, I can guarantee that I will not kill any of your soldiers indiscriminately. If you are still stubborn and want to help the tyrants, then this Liyang Ferry will become the burial ground for you and others."
Liu Fang was furious, and his body was trembling. He gritted his teeth and said, "Liu Xiu, I, Liu Fang, will not surrender to you even if I am shattered to pieces!"
As he spoke, he pulled out the sword from his ribs. At the same time, he urged his horse to take two steps forward and asked loudly: "Liu Xiu, do you dare to come out and fight me?"
Looking at Liu Fang holding a sword and looking murderous, Liu Xiu was happy and asked slowly: "What will you do if I defeat you?"
Liu Fang said angrily: "Liu Xiu, if you can defeat me, I, Liu Fang, and even the tens of thousands of soldiers under my command will be at your disposal!"
Liu Xiu's eyes flashed, she nodded and said "good", and then urged her horse to get out of the queue.
Just when Liu Xiu and Liu Fang were about to duel in front of the two armies, a shout suddenly came from behind Liu Fang: "Prince Ning, how can you kill a chicken with a bull's knife?! I am willing to fight Liu Xiu!"
Following the words, a general ran out from among the generals behind Liu Fang. This man was in his thirties, wearing a silver helmet, silver armor, and a white cloak on his back. This man was Mo Xiu.
The deputy head of the hall, Du Xiang.
Liu Fang knew very well how weak he was. With his ability, if he challenged Liu Xiu to a duel, he would undoubtedly be seeking death. The reason why he offered to fight alone was just to pave the way for Du Xiang.
Although he is not Liu Xiu's opponent, Du Xiang is different. Du Xiang's own martial arts is extremely strong, and he is also the deputy leader of Moxiu Hall. He has already perfected his hidden weapon skills.
In Liu Fang's view, as long as Du Xiang and Liu Xiu were given the opportunity to fight alone, he would be sure to kill Liu Xiu. As long as Liu Xiu died, the enemy army would be in chaos, and his side would have the opportunity to turn defeat into victory.
Liu Fang turned to look at Du Xiang and asked: "General Du, do you want to fight on my behalf?"
Du Xiang bowed his hands on horseback and saluted, saying, "Exactly! Please give me your permission, King Ning!"
Liu Fang did not speak immediately, but turned to look at Liu Xiu and asked: "Liu Xiu, General Du will fight on my behalf, are you willing?"
Upon seeing this, the generals Yao Qi, Gu Chong came forward one after another and said: "Your Majesty, I am willing to go to war!"
Liu Xiu waved his hand, looked at Liu Fang opposite, and asked: "Liu Fang, if I defeat your General Du, what will you do?"
Liu Fang didn't even think about it, and immediately said: "Our agreement is still standing! If you can really defeat General Du, I am willing to admit defeat and lead my troops to surrender to you!"
Liu Xiu nodded and said okay.
He has never been a person who is willing to kill indiscriminately. There are too many Liu Yongjun trapped in Liyang Ferry. With so many people, Liu Xiu cannot bear to kill them all. It would be best if the other party is willing to surrender.
Already.
Having made a gentleman's agreement with Liu Fang, Liu Xiu and Du Xiang urged their horses forward in unison. In the blink of an eye, their horses' heads were almost touching. What's interesting is that neither of them used long weapons.
It's with a sword.
Du Xiang was the first to attack. He turned his horse's head and urged the horse to run past Liu Xiu. At the same time, he stabbed out his sword and hit the side of Liu Xiu's neck.
Liu Xiu swung his sword to block. With a clang and a crisp sound, Du Xiang's sword bounced away. Liu Xiu returned his sword and struck the opponent's neck.
Du Xiang leaned back, and whoosh, the Chixiao Sword swept across the tip of his nose. The two horses crossed each other, and this was the first time the two sides met.
Then, the two men turned their horses back and walked in the opposite direction again. When they came into contact, their swords flew into the air, and clanking sounds could be heard from time to time in the air.
The two men exchanged swords three times each, and the horses passed each other again. This was a round.
Liu Xiu and Du Xiang fought back and forth. Du Xiang's martial arts was really good. At least when he faced Liu Xiu immediately, he didn't show any obvious disadvantage.
The two fought for ten rounds, with Liu Xiu getting better and better as he fought, while Du Xiang gradually showed his weakness. Just when Liu Xiu gradually began to gain the upper hand, Du Xiang asked for a change.
When the two of them passed each other again, Du Xiang suddenly shouted, jumped up from his horse, and using the inertia of his fall, he slashed at Liu Xiu with a sword that was as powerful as Huashan.
Liu Xiu calmly raised his sword and parried upward. Bang! With a loud and ear-piercing sound, Liu Xiu blocked Du Xiang's powerful blow.
With the help of the rebound force, Du Xiang's body stagnated in the air for a moment. Taking advantage of this gap, he swiped his sword again and took Liu Xiu's neck.
Liu Xiu reacted quickly and jumped out sideways while sitting on the horse. Sha! Du Xiang swept away with one sword.
Da, da, da! Liu Xiu and Du Xiang landed almost at the same time, and their horses both ran away from the battlefield. This time, the two men fought on the ground. Liu Xiu and Du Xiang fought together again with swords.
The two fought fast, and the sound of clanging sounds could be heard. It didn't last long, and the two fought for more than ten rounds. Du Xiang was secretly shocked. He had heard that Liu Xiu was very powerful in martial arts, but he never expected that he would
So awesome.
His skills are already outstanding in the world, but against Liu Xiu, even if he tried his best, he could not gain the upper hand at all. He frowned secretly, and suddenly struck several times with his sword, forcing Liu Xiu to take a step back.
.
Taking this opportunity, he jumped up and kicked Liu Xiu three times. Liu Xiu secretly thought that the opportunity had come, and instead of catching his three consecutive kicks, he turned around and ducked to Du Xiang's side.
Aiming at his ribs, he thrust out a sword.
Du Xiangren was still in the air and had no way to dodge. He could only use all his strength to draw out a sword. Bang! His sword hit the Scarlet Sky Sword, but he could not fully open the Scarlet Sky Sword.
With a hissing sound, the sharp edge of the Red Sky Sword opened a long gash in the armor on his lower abdomen, and blood flowed out from the armor.
Du Xiang secretly gritted his teeth in pain. After landing, he involuntarily stepped back. How could Liu Xiu miss such an opportunity and chased after him with his sword.
When he was only two steps away from Du Xiang, the latter suddenly waved his arm, and heard three consecutive pops, and three crossbow arrows flew out of his cuffs at almost the same time. Each arrow was
Aiming at Liu Xiu's face.
No one thought that Du Xiang actually had such a powerful and domineering hidden weapon hidden in his body.
When Yao Qi and others saw it, it was already too late to remind Liu Xiu.
The distance between the two sides was too close, and the speed of the crossbow arrow was too fast. In just the blink of an eye, it flew in front of Liu Xiu.
The latter leaned back, fired two swords outwards, and heard two ding-ding sounds. The first two flying crossbow arrows were bounced away by the Chixiao Sword, but Liu Xiu couldn't knock the last arrow away anymore.
, hit him right in the face.
Liu Xiu leaned back and fell to the ground.
Du Xiang's eyes suddenly lit up and his heart was beating wildly. He rushed forward, came to Liu Xiu's side, and slashed with his sword, trying to chop off Liu Xiu's head.
Unexpectedly, Liu Xiu, who was lying on the ground, suddenly raised the Chixiao Sword and caught Du Xiang's heavy sword. Then he kicked up with one foot and hit Du Xiang's chin.
Du Xiang secretly said something bad! Du Xiang hurriedly pulled away, but his chin was still rubbed by the sole of Liu Xiu's shoe, causing burning pain. Liu Xiu stood up like a carp and jumped up from the ground.
The people around looked carefully and saw that Liu Xiu was holding a crossbow arrow in his mouth. It turned out that the last arrow that hit his face was bitten by him with his teeth.
Looking at Liu Xiu who was biting his crossbow arrow, Du Xiang raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said with a half-smile: "Liu Xiu, don't you know, my arrow is poisoned!"
Do you think you’ll be fine if you bite my crossbow? You’re looking for death!
