Xuzhou City.

Liu Bei was already worried at this time.

In the past few days, the news passed to Liu Bei is not good news.

First of all, Yuan Shao's army attacked Xuzhou, and Liu Bei sent people to deal with Yuan Shao.

Immediately afterwards, Liu Zheng also sent people to join the chaotic battle, if it was just like this, Liu Bei would not be anxious.

This time, Liu Zheng seemed to be planning to fight with Liu Bei here, and not only the men and horses stationed in Guangling began to rush towards Xuzhou.

Even the soldiers and horses stationed in Huainan gradually began to march in the direction of Xuzhou.

If it was just like that, Liu Bei wasn't worried.

After all, with his current strength in Xuzhou, he can barely block it, and even if he can't stop it, he can still let Yanzhou's soldiers and horses come over to support Xuzhou, so it won't be a big problem.

But things are not as simple as Liu Bei thought, after battles broke out on various fronts, and the enemy gradually appeared, not to mention Xuzhou, even Yanzhou, which was also under attack at the moment.

Not long ago, news came from Yanzhou's soldiers and horses that Yuan Shao's army was gradually approaching Yanzhou in Jizhou, and tens of thousands of troops were attacking Yanzhou, and a mere Zhang Fei might not be able to resist it.

Liu Bei, who was already worried about Xuzhou, became even more worried after hearing the news at this moment, after all, once there was a war, it would be nowhere for him to recruit reinforcements.

The battle in Yanzhou is really a wave of unsettled waves, Liu Bei, who was originally only worried about Xuzhou, is now not only worried about Xuzhou, but also Yanzhou.

As a result, Liu Bei is now anxious, and he has no idea, so he can only seek Cheng Yu by his side, count on Cheng Yu, and come up with a way for him.

Cheng Yu's face was also gloomy at this time, and in the face of such a situation, even he had no particularly good way.

He and Liu Bei glanced at each other, both of them thinking about what to do next.

At this time, Guan Yu walked in from outside the house in embarrassment.

"Lord Qi, General Guan, is asking to see you outside the house."

"Yun Chang is back, great, please come soon!"

When Liu Bei heard that Guan Yu had returned to Xuzhou, he didn't have any expression, but as soon as he heard that Guan Yu was back, he finally heard a good news, showed a smile and hurriedly got up from the chair, ready to go out to greet Guan Yu.

Before Liu Bei walked out of the house, Guan Yu had already walked in from outside the house, and as soon as he saw Liu Bei, he hugged his fist and saluted Liu Bei.

"Big brother, Yun Chang is ashamed of you!"

As soon as Guan Yu walked in, a sad look appeared on his face.

Liu Bei only approached Guan Yu, and saw Guan Yu's appearance, but he didn't worry too much, in Liu Bei's opinion, as long as Guan Yu was alive, no matter what happened, it was not too bad.

"Second brother, what's going on?"

Liu Bei asked Guan Yu, and Cheng Yu on the side also focused his eyes on Guan Yu, wanting to know what was going on in Xiapi City.

At the moment, Guan Yu didn't dare to hide it, and immediately told Liu Bei how he defeated Yuan Shao in Xiapi City and how he pursued Yuan Shao, but was cut off by Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses.

When Liu Bei heard Guan Yu say that the 20,000 troops under his command had suffered heavy losses, although the expression on his face was not very good, but when he heard that Guan Yu and Zhao Yun were fine, he was a little glad that the soldiers and horses were gone, and they could continue to recruit, but if Guan Yu and Zhao Yun had something, they would regret it a little.

After listening to Guan Yu's description, although Liu Bei felt a little sad in his heart, it was a blessing in misfortune, Guan Yu and Zhao Yun were fine.

"Second brother, it's okay, if you lose Xiapicheng, you will lose it, and we will fight back."

At this time, Liu Bei could only comfort Guan Yu like this.

Although Liu Bei forgave Guan Yu in this way, Guan Yu himself was still frowning and did not forgive himself, he was still worried about Xuzhou.

"Big brother, Xia Picheng should not be able to hold it, and this time Liu Zheng sent his own elite, Zhao Yun's soldiers and horses and I were defeated by the elite under Liu Zheng, these people, we have also seen before, it is Lu Bu who fought with us when he was in Qingzhou."

"Ah, Lu Bu!"

As soon as Liu Bei heard Guan Yu's words, he immediately recalled that when he was in Qingzhou, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu dealt with Lu Bu together, but they didn't take advantage of the fierce man at all.

"The trapped camp led by Lu Bu is said to be some of the most elite soldiers and horses under Liu Zheng, and I heard Zhao Yun say that he personally saw Liu Zheng on the battlefield, that is, Liu Zheng has personally come to the battlefield in Xuzhou!"

After Guan Yu told Liu Bei the news, Liu Bei, who was still rejoicing, suddenly turned gloomy.

"Liu Zheng personally went to the battlefield in Xuzhou, no wonder, this is not strange, I said why the men and horses of Guangling County and Huainan County began to attack us at this time!"

Originally, Liu Bei just thought that Liu Zheng's men and horses suddenly visited Xuzhou, just to catch Liu Bei off guard and take advantage of Liu Bei and Yuan Shao's attack.

But now it seems that this is not the case at all.

Liu Zheng himself visited, and things were completely different.

In Liu Bei's opinion, Liu Zheng should still be in Jingzhou to deal with Liu Biao and Ding Yuan at this time, and suddenly appearing here is obviously something that has been planned for a long time.

"Big brother, Liu Zheng has deployed tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Xuzhou, and now our men and horses are not enough to fight against Liu Zheng, let the third brother bring troops from Yanzhou to support us!"

Guan Yu's main purpose in coming to Xuzhou to find Liu Bei was to let Liu Bei mobilize Yanzhou's soldiers and horses, otherwise according to Liu Zheng's current offensive, this Xuzhou city would not be able to stop it at all.

Hearing Guan Yu's words, Liu Bei smiled bitterly.

"Second brother, it's not that I don't want to go to Yanzhou to mobilize the third brother's soldiers and horses, but at this time, Yanzhou is already difficult to protect itself."

"Huh? What the? ”

Guan Yu didn't know what was happening in Yanzhou, and after hearing Liu Bei's words at this time, he was naturally a little surprised.

At the moment, Liu Bei did not hide it from Guan Yu, and directly told Guan Yu what happened in Yanzhou, and told Guan Yu that Yuan Shao's eldest son, Yuan Tan, led this Zhang Gao Lan and the two of them, and was attacking Yanzhou, although Zhang Fei and Xu Chu resisted in Yanzhou, but the situation was not optimistic.

After listening to this, Guan Yu's face darkened.

Cheng Yu on the side didn't speak for a long time, but he also knew that Liu Bei's situation was not easy now.

"My lord, we should make a trade-off now."

"Trade-offs? What does Mr. Chung Tak want to say? ”

"Lord, with our current strength, it is difficult to hold two counties in the attack of Liu Zheng and Yuan Shao, I think we should give up one of them and try to ensure that the other one is not lost."
