Sun Ce agreed with Guo Jia's opinion, but he knew better that if he wanted Liu He to be calm, he had to hurt him first. By the same token, if he wanted Tao Ying to give up his unrealistic ideas, he would also have to suffer a little first.

Sun Ce talked with Xu Sheng for a long time, and learned about his situation. He suggested that he first join the Bai Li Shi. Xu Sheng had excellent cavalry skills and outstanding spear techniques. He was more than enough to be a Bai Li Shi. After he became familiar with the situation, he could only apply it. In the future, he could become a chief lieutenant and a captain. Xu Sheng did not lead cavalry in Jiangdong because there were no established cavalry in Jiangdong and he could not play his advantage. Now that he had this condition, of course, it would be better to give full play to his advantages.

Xu Sheng was very satisfied. Whether it was Bai Lishi or the personal guards, these were Sun Ce's direct descendants. It was rare for him to have such an opportunity as an outsider. He then took the initiative to go to Yan Xing to test his skills. After Yan Xing's assessment, Xu Sheng's archery skills were average and could only be considered as a medium-sized score, but his spear technique was quite good. Even in Bai Lishi, he was considered excellent and joined Bai Lishi legitimately.

Officially becoming a post-State Literature, Xu Sheng did one thing: challenge Guo Yuan and Xie Guanglong.

This incident aroused the interest of many people, including Sun Ce, who could not suppress his curiosity and rushed to the competition venue to see it. The competition venue was in the valley between the two peaks. Not only could Sun Ce's subordinates see it, but Tao Ying's subordinates stationed on the main peak can also see it. The soldiers stood on the hillside and watched Xu Sheng fight with Guo Yuan and Xie Guanglong one after another.

Guo Yuan and Xie Guanglong are also members of Bai Lishi, but their identities are more special. They spend most of their time with Sun Ce and are inseparable from each other. These two are not gentlemen, and they bully people a lot with their martial arts and identities, especially newcomers. Even warriors like Chen Wu recommended by Cheng Pu are no exception, let alone other people without backgrounds. But their martial arts are indeed good, and ordinary people really can't do anything to them.

Xu Sheng, a newcomer, naturally needs some courage to challenge these two people.

Guo Yuan and Xie Guanglong were very annoyed and discussed not only defeating Xu Sheng, but also hitting his arrogance hard, otherwise who would take them seriously in the future?

The two were dressed neatly and wrapped their spearheads in cowhide. Xie Guanglong took the lead in the battle, while Guo Yuan watched the battle.

Seeing this formation, the white soldiers burst into laughter.

"Old Xie is playing a hooligan again." Someone said.

"No." Someone immediately refuted. "This is two old gangsters who are bullying the newcomers together."

"That's not true, so shameless."

Hearing his companions laughing, Xie Guanglong smiled freely, and he didn't feel embarrassed at all. Guo Yuan even retorted. "What's the shameless thing? If you win, you are a hero. If you really want to be shameless, then you can fight and be honest and open. That's what Duke Xiang of Song did, but he was dead. The soldiers never get tired of cheating, and living is the key. Look at our generals when they have to fight. When can they fight, they will fight if they can't fight. If they can, they will run away if they can. If they can, they will be fat, and if they can be thinner, they will be thinner. If they are thinner, they will be fat, and if they are thinner, they will be fat, and if they are thinner, they will be dead..."

"Shut up!" Guo Wu couldn't stand it anymore and shouted loudly: "You are a competition now, not a battle. Do you want to apply some poison on the arrow and do it secretly? If you are shameless, why are you pulling others into trouble?"

Guo Yuan touched his face awkwardly and did not dare to say anything again. He knew that his big mouth had made a fuss. It would be bad if this was heard in Sun Ce's ears. He secretly glanced at Sun Ce on the hillside and didn't say anything again.

Sun Ce has a very good ears and can hear Guo Yuan's words clearly, but he doesn't say anything. These are just two concepts and cannot be confused. Guo Yuan is just making excuses for his shamelessness. Xie Guanglong's family has archery skills, and his cavalry and shooting are superior, and his spear skills are slightly inferior. Guo Yuan's spear skills are better and he is good at short-term troops. Xie Guanglong goes to fight first, and he must defend with all his strength. If he can do it, he will escape, and he will consume Xu Sheng's physical strength and horsepower as much as possible. When Xu Sheng is exhausted, Guo Yuan can win quickly.

This is a common trick they used. Sun Ce has heard of it countless times. He doesn't intend to remind Xu Sheng that if he wants to stay in the military camp, he has to rely on his own strength. To be honest, these two people are already restrained enough if they don't go together. If Guo Yuan held a spear and attacked with a close-range shot, Xie Guanglong would have a headache even if Lu Bu came.

Seeing that Xu Sheng and Xie Guanglong had already entered the position, the sound of war drums sounded, and the sound of talking and talking immediately disappeared. Everyone closed their mouths and watched the competition with concentration.

Sun Ce turned his head slightly. "Fengxiao, who will win?"

Guo Jia said: "Xu Wenxiang has a greater chance of winning, but it is still unclear whether he can still fight Gong Zuo in addition to defeating Xie Guanglong." After a while, he said: "General, the loss of war horses is too great. We must find a way to solve it, otherwise the cavalry's combat power will drop too much. Once something happens, it will be difficult for us to deal with it."

"What are your plans?"

"Invite to fight against Liu He and severely damage his cavalry."

Sun Ce turned to look at Guo Jia, and saw that he looked serious, not like he was joking. "How to do it?"

"Running to Guangling, he forced Liu He to send cavalry to pursue him. Liu He thought he had many cavalry and had obvious advantages. He would not expect that the general would take the initiative to invite the war. He was reluctant to use food to feed the war horses, which was not conducive to long-distance pursuit. After two hundred miles, our opportunity came."

“Our horsepower isn’t very strong.”

"So you have to send elites, real elites." Guo Jia turned his head, and his eyes were leaping with flames. "One person and two horses, or one person and three horses."

Sun Ce's eyes narrowed. He understood what Guo Jia meant. This was indeed a risky approach, but it was a feasible solution to the advantages of Liu He's cavalry. Liu He had three thousand cavalry, and now he had three or four thousand horses. If he sent cavalry to attack Langya, Tao Qian would probably collapse at any time. Once Yuan Xi's army entered Xuzhou and joined forces with Liu He, he could not defend Xuzhou.

Of course, this is not in Liu He's interests, but who can guarantee that Liu He can withstand Yuan Shao's pressure? It's not a sign of anything? Langya is in danger, and Tao Qian is already struggling now. Even if Liu He just perfunctory Yuan Shao and sends hundreds of cavalry to harass him, Tao Qian may be defeated and completely lose Langya.

Send elite troops to attack and weaken Liu He's cavalry advantage. Liu He will be more cautious after being frustrated, and there are enough reasons to refuse Yuan Shao's dispatch.

Sun Ce joked: "Fengxiao, not only do you do my military plan, but you also provide advice for Liu He and hold two positions. It's really not easy."

"As long as it is beneficial to the general, I don't mind giving advice to anyone." Guo Jia said, unable to help laughing.

Sun Ce couldn't help laughing.

At this time, there was a burst of exclamation in the valley. Sun Ce quickly turned his head and saw Xu Sheng jumping on the horse and slowly strangling the reins of the horse. However, Xie Guanglong was already off the horse and was getting up from the ground in a mess. Sun Ce was surprised. He had just walked for a while and why did he decide the winner? It was too fast.

"What's going on?" Sun Ce asked Chen Wu beside him.

Chen Wu was exclaiming at Xu Sheng's quick victory. After a long time, he remembered to answer Sun Ce, and quickly explained: "Xu Sheng went directly into the battle, forcing Xie Guanglong into a dead corner, and then used the weight of the weapon to force the breakthrough, caught Xie Guanglong off guard, and fought quickly. Oh, the brave ones who met on a narrow road win, Xu Sheng was fierce enough."
