Chapter 601: Never Return Until Luoyang is Conquered

"Is Zhao Du really finished?"

On a small hill beside the official road, Fan Chou looked at the river in the south, his eyes slightly narrowed, his hands shaking.

It is obvious that the battle situation on the front line cannot be concealed at all.

After all, the distance was too close. As long as he found a high point like this and looked far away, he would be able to discover that the fleet that was supposed to be responsible for the blockade not only did not perform its mission, but instead dispersed and chased and dispersed the friendly ships that came to support from other docks.

The fleet that blockaded the ferry was not only destroyed, but it even changed its flag!

"Why is it like this?"

Fan Chou calmed down and asked the scout in surprise:
"Then Zhao Du wouldn't be so stupid as to drive a ship to fight a land battle, right?"

"That rebel didn't even have a navy. If Zhao Du hadn't been so reckless as to sail ashore to die, could that Su have flown across the Luo River to kill people?"

"Uh"

The scout forced a smile that was uglier than crying and nodded:

"Captain Fan is wise, and the champion marquis indeed flew over."

"what???"

Fan Chou opened his eyes wide and his mouth as big as if a ball could be stuffed in.

He never expected that his angry words would result in such a response.

Fan Chou stared at the scout's eyes, as if trying to tell from his face whether he was lying.

"You mean fly over?"

"Are you going to tell this lieutenant that the Su grew wings and flew across the Luo River?"

"Do you think I would believe such ridiculous talk?"

The scout's expression suddenly became strange, and he quickly knelt down and kowtowed:

"No, no, Champion Marquis doesn't have wings, but he, but he really has wild imagination!"

"What?" Fan Chou drew out his weapon, as if he was going to hack the nonsense scout to death.

The scout was so frightened that he stepped back and explained hastily.

The next moment, Fan Chou was stunned by Su Yao's imaginative and earth-shattering fighting style.

The champion marquis charged alone in a small boat?

Moreover, unrestrained imagination? He was literally unrestrained imagination? ?
What kind of warhorse can jump nearly a hundred steps at a time?!
Such a huge fleet was almost wiped out by just a single cavalryman like him who boarded the ship?

This is simply an outrageous mother opening the door for something outrageous. It's outrageous to the extreme.

Fan Chou's face turned pale and he gasped for breath, as if he had heard something out of an Arabian Nights fairy tale.

He held the knife and placed it on the scout's neck, his trembling hands leaving a bloody mark on his neck.

Seeing that Fan Chou seemed unconvinced, the scout continued:
"What I said is absolutely true. It was witnessed by the sailor who managed to escape."

"It must be that the Champion Marquis had the help of a celestial horse, who turned the natural chasm into a thoroughfare. At that time, Captain Zhao's fleet was smashed to pieces by the Champion Marquis alone, and the soldiers jumped into the water to escape, and the scene was in chaos."

"He said he saw Captain Zhao being beheaded by Marquis Guanjun with one blow. His head flew high into the air and then rolled several times on the deck."

"enough!"

Fan Chou roared and removed the knife from the scout's neck, but the anger and disbelief on his face remained unchanged.

He turned around suddenly and looked in the direction of Luo River, his heart filled with helplessness and despair.

He knew that even if what the scout said was exaggerated, the result would not be bad.

Zhao Du is finished.

As for Su Yao, judging from the news brought by the defeated soldiers of Hu Zhen's army, he was indeed a godly general with ordinary abilities and unparalleled riding and archery skills.

However, it was only after he understood the situation that Fan Chou felt even more upset.

It is really hard to accept that all this happened so absurdly, as if it were a bizarre nightmare.

"Is it God's will that I am doomed?" Fan Chou murmured to himself, with a trace of despair in his eyes.

He originally thought that with the naval advantage of Dong Zhuo's army, it would be enough to block the ferry, and combined with his large army, he could easily trap Su Yao to death at the ferry.

However, reality gave him a heavy slap in the face.

Now, Zhao Du’s fleet has been completely wiped out and the ferry has been completely lost.

The reinforcements he brought were ultimately a step too late.

It's all in vain.

"Don't worry, Captain Fan. This isn't all bad, is it?"

The person who spoke was his deputy general, Meng Fang, the general of Qujun.

Seeing Fan Chou's surprised look, Meng Fang quickly explained:
"Captain, think about it, this Champion Marquis is so brave, even if he is really trapped, I'm afraid we won't be able to do anything about it easily."

"If we are careless, not only will our entire army be wiped out like Hu Zhen, but it is also very likely that we will suffer a great loss and damage our reputation."

"Now, Zhao Du has been defeated, his fleet is gone, and the Champion Marquis has crossed the river back calmly. Although we made a wasted trip, at least we didn't suffer any loss."

"From now on, when we return to Guanzhong, both Mr. Dong and Mr. Xu will rely on you even more."

"In my opinion, this trip is a good thing!"

Fan Chou blinked his eyes, stamped his feet, and suddenly burst into laughter:
"Hey, kid, it sounds like that's the truth."

"Although I didn't stop Su Yao, I did send troops. I just didn't catch up. No one can say that I did."

"On the contrary, in this battle, except for me, almost all of their troops were wiped out. I was actually credited with saving the entire army!"

"That's right. That's right."

Meng Fang nodded and said with a smile:

"The current situation is complicated. If we can preserve our strength, it will be our greatest victory!"

The two of them talked back and forth, becoming more and more excited.

They saw hope in the crisis.

It was obvious that the Champion Marquis had acted on impulse this time.

After achieving such a victory, we must digest it.

Whether Dong Gong wants to speed up the relocation of the capital or to defend Luoyang, he needs the help of a large army.

The three thousand strong army they have is their greatest support.

"Alright, alright, since the mission has failed, let's prepare to return."

"There is a long way to go. I will come back and compete with that Su guy."

Fan Chou had a faint smile on his face and his mood improved a lot.

However, he didn't expect it.
"what?!"

"Not only did Su Yao not go back, but he occupied the ferry and refused to leave?!"

Fan Chou's originally calm mood was broken again, and he felt as disgusted as if he had eaten a fly.

He didn't expect that when he was about to return, the scout came to report again.

The champion, Hou Suyao, took advantage of the victory and not only did he not retreat, but he went even further, occupying the ferry, clearing the dock, and making preparations to welcome the army from the south bank to cross the river.

This guy, whether it's his courage or his appetite, they're just too big!
You are an iron man, are your soldiers also iron men?
Please give me some rest!!!

"Bros!"

"Everyone, get up and work hard!"

Su Yao stood on the high platform at the dock, holding his weapon, and spoke passionately:
"The enemy has lost their nerve. Now is the time for us to complete our mission!"

"Everyone, please work hard together. Follow me: I will not return until I conquer Luoyang after a hundred battles in the yellow sand and wear my golden armor!"
