Chapter 245 Yao Jin: Third Brother, run with me! I'll protect you!
"Old Master Xu, make a decision!"
Before the battle was even over, Du Fuwei was already considering retreating and wanted to back down.
He doesn't want to fight anymore, he really doesn't want to fight anymore.
This war is unwinnable.
Wu Yunzhao, the most capable fighter among them, has disappeared without a trace, his fate unknown.
In this situation, how can they deal with Lü Xiao?
"Wait a little longer..."
Xu Maogong raised his sleeve and wiped the cold sweat that kept pouring down his forehead.
The sweat kept coming back up after being wiped away, and no matter how much it was wiped away, it just wouldn't get clean.
I remember back then, in Wagang Village, when Lü Xiao was driven away by them.
Although Lü Xiao had a hidden trick up his sleeve, it wasn't this incredible.
Back then, Qin Qiong, Wang Bodang, Wang Junke, and others could still gang up on Lü Xiao and even exchange a few blows with him.
How could it be that in just a few short years, Lü Xiao has become so extraordinary?
"Third brother, tell your fourth brother the truth." Cheng Yaojin, bored and starting to undermine the morale of the army, leaned close to Xu Maogong and asked in a low voice.
"If we really have to run away later, who do we go to for refuge? We need to have somewhere to go, right?"
"Yaojin! We haven't lost yet!"
Xu Maogong was truly impressed by Cheng Yaojin; this guy was all talk and no action, undermining morale and doing more harm than good.
Wouldn't saying such things at a time like this just scare others even more?
"Ah, yes, yes, we didn't lose, we didn't lose."
Cheng Yaojin nodded quickly, looking very serious, as if he truly believed it.
Damn it, hundreds of thousands of people have been besieging one person for so long, and they still can't take him down. Countless people have died or been injured, and blood has flowed like a river.
They still say they haven't lost; they're incredibly stubborn.
Xu Maogong said no more, lowered his head, and fell into deep thought.
Although Cheng Yaojin was a big mouth and spoke without thinking.
But it wasn't all nonsense; some of what he said made some sense.
Lu Xiao's performance was nothing short of phenomenal, completely exceeding his expectations.
If he really loses, he really needs to find another team as soon as possible and make plans in advance.
Qin Qiong joined Dou Jiande's forces and is now doing very well in Hebei.
The Li family is also on the path of attacking Dou Jiande. When two tigers fight, one of them is bound to be injured.
He could go to Hebei and persuade Qin Qiong to join the Li family.
With Qin Qiong's skills and wisdom, he should be able to secure a good position in the Li family.
It was only with the combined efforts of Luo Shixin and Li Yuanba, Li Shimin's younger brother, that they were able to fight against Lü Xiao.
Even if there were dozens more of Wu Yunzhao's level, it wouldn't be enough for Lü Xiao to kill.
"hey-hey."
Cheng Yaojin chuckled to himself upon seeing Xu Maogong's appearance.
If he wasn't mistaken, this guy was also starting to back down and was beginning to think about his options.
Okay, very good.
Just then, a person covered in blood stumbled out of the melee.
"Lu Xiao is exhausted! He can't hold on any longer!"
He ran while shouting at the top of his lungs, his voice full of excitement.
"What? Tired?"
"Is Lü Xiao tired?"
In an instant, the surrounding rebel kings swarmed around him.
They were all incredibly excited, their eyes shining, as if they had heard some amazing news.
The man, panting heavily, described the scene with exaggerated gestures:
"We besieged Lü Xiao for a long time, and watched as his moves went from being wide and powerful at the beginning to becoming slower and slower, until they became extremely slow!"
He was tired, he had no strength left, he couldn't hold on any longer!
"Hahaha!"
The rebel kings immediately burst into laughter.
I thought Lü Xiao was invincible and unbeatable.
Now it seems, it's nothing special!
Humans get tired, and iron gets forged. No matter how powerful Lü Xiao is, he is still a mortal and will eventually exhaust himself!
As long as they kill Lü Xiao and deal with the tens of thousands of troops of the imperial court, they will surely win the Battle of Siping Mountain!
The Jianghuai region was their domain!
"Quickly! We'll personally command the troops and make sure Lü Xiao is killed!"
Seeing this, Du Fuwei, Li Zitong, and the others perked up again, rubbing their hands together as if they could already see the dawn of victory.
"Is this...right?"
Cheng Yaojin scratched his head, looking completely confused.
How could Lü Xiao not be able to hold on?
That doesn't make sense. If that's the case, wouldn't they be going to win?
Isn't this traitor going to miscalculate?
Just as Cheng Yaojin was lost in thought...
He then noticed that the rebel kings who had rushed up to give orders earlier seemed to have returned.
Moreover, it runs faster than anyone else.
They looked back every few steps, their faces filled with terror, as if some monstrous beast was chasing them.
"Run! Run!"
Not only the rebel kings, but also some soldiers withdrew from the battlefield.
One by one, they were routed, their armor and weapons discarded, leaving them in a sorry state.
"No refunds! No refunds!"
The soldiers of the supervisory team, armed with long spears, formed a human wall.
He shouted at the retreating soldiers, pointing his spear forward in an attempt to stop the rout.
"Go to hell!"
Upon seeing this, a general who had retreated immediately brandished his sword without saying a word.
A flash of cold light, and two soldiers from the supervisory team were instantly killed, falling into pools of blood.
He was also one of the men who had attacked Lü Xiao earlier, joining his brothers in the attack.
Indeed, Lü Xiao initially charged in fiercely, as if entering an empty field.
But soon they realized that it wasn't that Lü Xiao was tired; he was deliberately luring them into a trap!
Once they surrounded him, Lü Xiao suddenly unleashed an even more ferocious killing move, chasing after tens of thousands of people and killing them all by himself!
They were slaughtered until they cried out in despair, their souls scattered!
If you don't run now, when will you wait?
"Get out of my way! I might not be able to beat Lü Xiao, but I can beat you all!"
Another general ran down and roared at the supervising team, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
Subsequently, more soldiers ran back, and more people joined the ranks of the assault supervision team.
These people surged in like a tidal wave, scattering, crushing, and trampling their own supervisory teams underfoot.
"Old Yu!"
Seeing that the time was right, Cheng Yaojin immediately gave You Junda a look, his eyes full of excitement.
Yu Junda understood immediately, grabbed the huge banner that represented the leader of the allied forces, and raised it high.
"Third Brother, come with me, I'll protect you!"
Cheng Yaojin turned to Xu Maogong and called out, his voice full of concern.
"well……"
Xu Maogong watched as the supervising team was scattered, and countless allied soldiers ran down Siping Mountain like headless flies.
For a moment, I was at a loss, my mind went blank.
He rode on his horse, closely following behind Cheng Yaojin, regarding him as his last lifeline.
"That Lü Xiao isn't tired at all! He seems full of energy, getting more and more enthusiastic as he kills!"
Du Fuwei spoke as he ran, his voice trembling.
As he said this, he even dropped the sword in his hand to the ground.
"Old Du! Old Li!" Cheng Yaojin shouted back at the rapidly running figures as he ran.
"Run with me, and I'll protect you!"
