Chapter 523: Big-Eared Thief
The blazing fire almost illuminates the sky,
The afterglow of the setting sun was eclipsed in front of this firelight,
The three of them stood side by side in the distance,
Looking at the frantically swaying flames,
The face is the same solemn,
While these guys,
They are their enemies of life and death,
But after all, now it's a dead corpse in one place,
The deceased are great, and silence is their greatest respect.
After a long time, Lu Bu finally turned around,
stepped on the red rabbit horse,
Walking slowly in the direction of the state,
The two people next to him also turned over on the war horse,
Lu Bu looked back at the sky-rushing flames again,
couldn't help but whisper:
"Fuck, this battle is a big loss, I hope Cao Ang's side won't let me down! cough cough cough ......"
At the same time, on the other side of Xuzhou,
The huge military camp is like an ancient beast that chooses people to eat,
When the sky is about to get dark,
It looks even more terrifying.
In the tent of the Chinese army,
It's already been lit up for a long time,
The figures of the people are reflected in the tent,
Cao Ang sat on the main seat of the handsome tent,
He ordered in a deep voice:
"Early tomorrow morning, a hasty march to besiege the city!"
On the second day, the sky was fine and there was no wind,
A team of neat-looking soldiers,
Quickly and orderly rushed out of the barracks gate,
Towards the distance,
There aren't many supplies on everyone's back,
Lightly traveled,
The troops were moving very fast.
Cao Ang was located in the center of the troops,
He was surrounded by the Xiahou brothers and Xu Chu,
Xia Houdun had an excited smile on his face,
Since Lu Bu sent troops,
The next day their troops also began to march secretly.
But it's been in a state of day and night, hiding whereabouts,
is to wait for today's decisive battle,
The stratagem they use is very simple.
Ming Xiu plank road darkness Chen Cang,
In Liu Bei's eyes,
It is not difficult to see such a strategy,
The point is, the bait they throw is too tempting,
Lu Bu was in danger alone,
There are only two people beside him, Yan Liangwen and Chou,
and 20,000 cavalrymen without logistical supplies,
Although in the beginning,
caused a lot of trouble to Liu Bei,
But as the war progresses,
Liu Beijun adjusted his strategic deployment,
Under the siege of the army,
Let Lu Bu's room for maneuver get smaller and smaller,
But at the same time,
Correspondingly, the defense of northern Xuzhou was weakened.
The army led by Cao Ang,
It was in this situation that he quietly transferred to Liu Bei's place,
After a few days of secret travel,
Yesterday I finally arrived in Sanyang County,
This is the northeast of Xuzhou,
Originally, it was a relatively remote county,
It's just that because of this,
With a long coastline,
And the distance from the Wa kingdom is very close,
Therefore, it was selected by Liu Bei as the location of the base camp,
Although in recent years,
Liu Bei has been vigorously developing this Shanyang County,
But this is not a rich Central Plains region after all,
Although the rain is abundant,
But in the era of the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty,
Humans have not yet made good use of marine resources,
Especially when there is no way to resist it,
Various disasters from the sea,
Therefore, the entire Sanyo County as a whole,
It's still relatively barren.
Liu Bei is now in Anqiu County, Shanyang County,
Although this is not the county of Sanyo County,
But because Liu Bei was personally stationed here,
Therefore, the degree of prosperity,
It has long surpassed the county governance of Sanyang County.
Not far away, you can already see the high city wall of Anqiu County,
There, there are already countless soldiers waiting for them,
Cao Ang's face was grim,
The eyes that looked at the city were cold and deep,
Above the head of the city,
A man wore a pair of piercing golden armor,
Looking at it from afar, it is also majestic.
"Liu Bei has already prepared?"
Xiahou Yuan's deep voice,
With a hint of surprise,
Cao Ang's expression remained unchanged and he said softly:
"We've all arrived here, if Liu Bei still didn't know it, he wouldn't be able to live until now."
Xiahou Yuan's lips were tightly closed,
He did not continue to speak.
Cao Ang raised his hand,
All the soldiers stopped at this moment,
Here, there is still a distance of nearly three miles from the city,
Both sides can see each other clearly,
Cao Ang didn't look back,
The first order was given in a loud voice,
"Chinese army! Rear Army! Set up a camp on the spot! β
As soon as Xiahou Yuan heard this order,
Immediately became anxious,
How can there be any reason to set up camp at such a close distance,
He hurriedly hit his horse and chased after him,
Just as I was about to speak,
was suddenly interrupted by Cao Ang's words,
"General Miaocai, lead the troops and horses of the headquarters to march three hundred steps behind the general!"
Xiahou Yuan heard Cao Ang's order,
had to hold his fists and take his life,
Glancing back at the army that was busy camping,
looked at the distant city head where he could almost see the other party's every move,
The frowning eyebrows slowly stretched,
As soon as he raised his hand, thousands of soldiers and horses followed him,
Slowly fell at a distance of about three hundred steps behind Cao Ang.
Cao Ang controlled the war horse,
Calmly and calmly still marching towards the city,
Closely followed by Xu Chu,
This white and tender big fat man who looks harmless to humans and animals,
Sitting on a carefully selected warhorse,
Still looking bloated,
The original simple smile,
At this moment, it has long been reined in,
A pair of tiny eyes,
When looking in the direction of the city,
There will always be inadvertently,
Flashing cold.
The two slowly walked to the front army where Xiahoudun was,
At the moment, they are quietly waiting,
Cao Ang also did not give any orders,
It's just that at the moment when his body surpassed Xiahoudun,
Nodding slightly,
Xiahoudun immediately understood the meaning,
One arm is raised high,
And then suddenly slammed down,
Behind him two thousand forward cavalry,
Silently moved forward,
This way of silence,
than the usual charge,
There is also an even more overwhelming momentum.
As the two sides get closer and closer,
I can barely make out the figure in the golden armor,
It was a one-armed man,
That person is Liu Bei,
After missing an arm,
Even in such ostentatious gold armor,
In terms of momentum,
Still slightly inferior.
The moment Cao Ang saw that figure,
Immediately the whole body became extremely cold,
Those eyes,
As if looking out of the bottom of the Nine Hells,
Crossing the barriers of space,
It slammed into Liu Bei's body coldly.
Liu Bei narrowed his eyes slightly,
The young general at the front of the line,
He's very familiar,
This person is Cao Cao's eldest son, Cao Ang,
is also the most valued heir by Cao Cao, funny
The previous large-scale assassination of Cao Cao,
Cao Ang led the army outside,
escaped a catastrophe,
At the same time, it also left a bloodline for Cao Cao,
At the beginning, Liu Bei deliberately did not do his best to kill Cao Cao's remaining spark.
wants them to contain Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao,
can even hinder Lu Bu a little,
As a result, the heavens did not fulfill people's wishes,
This Cao Ang turned out to be a master who made a decisive decision,
When the opportunity is not good,
Without hesitation, the whole army took refuge in Lu Bu,
This move was quite unexpected by Liu Bei,
Although it is also concluded that
This son will definitely defect to Lu Bu in the end,
But at that time, he still had an army and a territory in his hands.
In order to be reasonable, we should first find a way to resist stubbornly,
Or by virtue of Cao Cao's prestige that still existed at that time,
Regaining some of Cao Cao's legacy is,
In this way, Liu Bei's plan to fish in troubled waters can continue.
But Cao Ang's resolute behavior,
Let Liu Bei's wishful thinking fail.
"If I had been more ruthless at the beginning, or if I hadn't been so naΓ―ve, maybe I wouldn't have fallen to where I am today."
Liu Bei looked at Cao Ang, who was getting closer and closer,
Such a sentence unconsciously came to mind,
Immediately, he shook his head,
threw this idea out of my head,
At this moment, this is not the time to feel sorry for yourself,
He Liu Bei has never been a person who regrets it.
Turning his head, he glanced at the young scribe beside him,
The other party is still standing here at this moment,
It was really a bit unexpected for him,
In his thoughts,
Sima Fu, this guy,
should have seen Lu Bu's plan early,
Only then did he order Yan Xing to lead Liu Bei's only remaining ace cavalry,
What kind of samurai came with the Japanese country,
Go and kill Lu Bu,
And he swore that
This plan is foolproof,
Liu Bei also believes that there is absolutely no possibility of failure,
After all, he had seen the power of those warriors with his own eyes.
And after the body is padded with a thick protective layer,
Able to completely restrain the cavalry troops led by Lu Bu,
At the same time, these are not the most critical,
There are also a few of them who are said to be the top masters in the world.
Although Liu Bei doesn't understand this,
But just look at Yan Xing and other generals with strong martial arts,
In front of the weakest of them,
I can't go two or three rounds,
That's enough to say a lot.
Under such a combination,
Even though Lu Bu has the ability to reach the sky,
That's a certain death,
Liu Bei has been waiting for the good news from over there,
But on the third day after the team set out,
Liu Bei also realized that something was wrong,
finally sensed the meaning of Lu Bujun's move,
It turned out that he wanted to make a sound,
The real goal is still yourself,
With the transmission of information from those Japanese people,
The movements of Cao Ang's army,
It was also learned by Liu Bei a few days ago,
He didn't choose to retreat or transfer.
On the contrary, he is actively preparing for the battle here.
That's where we meet today,
He already knew,
For the sake of secrecy,
I didn't carry heavy equipment,
In this case,
The difference in strength between the two sides is not very large,
Coupled with a strong city defense,
Liu Bei was confident that he would resist the invasion of this raiding force.
It's just that, in his prediction,
The treacherous and cunning Sima Fu,
Should have run away a long time ago,
Liu Bei is not a fool,
I have long seen that the other party and myself are not of the same mind,
Now that the decisive battle between the two sides is imminent,
Lu Bu was already sure that he was about to die in battle
The battle on this side,
No matter who wins or loses,
For Sima Fu, for their Sima family,
None of them have had much impact,
Therefore, there is no need for him to stay here,
At such a risk.
Sima Fu's eyes were also always on the outside of the city,
Liu Bei turned his head slightly,
has been seen by him,
quickly guessed the doubts in Liu Bei's heart,
The corners of the lips are slightly upturned,
Bend a shallow arc,
"The lord is wondering, why didn't the lower officials leave this place of right and wrong?"
Liu Bei's body didn't move,
The head also turned back,
But he nodded lightly as an answer.
The smile on Sima Fu's face remained unchanged,
Whispered:
"Lord, although I, Sima Fu, have some selfish intentions in serving you, but people are not grass and trees, and they can be ruthless. During this period of time with the lord, Sima Fu has been happy and convinced of the lord. I only hate that my ability is limited and I can't return to the sky, so I have been in such a situation that the lord has been involved in, but the lower officials are willing to stand side by side with the lord to show their sincerity! β
Sima Fu's words and words were categorical,
Although Liu Bei did not look back,
But his eyebrows couldn't help but stir again and again,
I didn't expect Sima Fu to say such words,
Things have come to this point,
Liu Bei didn't have to worry about the authenticity of these words at all,
For Liu Bei,
It was a bonus,
Once Cao Ang's siege was repulsed,
With the wisdom of Sima Fu,
and Chen to Chen Shuzhi, who has grown up,
With the assistance of this article and a martial arts,
Liu Bei is confident that in the case of the death of Yuan Shao, Lu Bu and other great enemies,
Gain vast territory and population,
In this way, he can be regarded as a carp jumping over the dragon gate,
Even if the imperial court has Jiangdong as a backer,
Liu Bei is still confident that he will be able to fight against him.
As for Yan Xing and the more than 20,000 cavalry,
When Liu Bei was sent out,
is already mentally prepared that the other party will not come back,
That Yan Xing defected to him Liu Bei,
The only purpose is to kill Lu Bu,
After Lu Bu's death,
This ambitious fellow,
Naturally, he was unwilling to continue to stay by Liu Bei's side,
For this,
Liu Bei has a very clear understanding.
Stretch out that one arm,
Liu Bei gently stroked the long beard under his chin,
After several years of careful storage,
At last the beard grew to more than half a foot,
Although due to the overwork of the past few years,
The beard has become a little gray,
But this is still one thing that Liu Bei is quite complacent.
It's just that every time I see my beard,
will always remember,
The great husband with three-foot hair,
The slender Danfeng eyes,
Like the skin of a heavy jujube,
Tall and burly body,
And the righteousness of that body,
It seems that it has been a long, long time,
It's not just him, but also that reckless black man,
Once the three of them met in Weimo,
Once the three of them were like-minded,
Once the three of them married Jin Lan,
Once the three of them fell asleep on their feet,
Once the three of them looked at each other,
Once the three of them fought bloodily,
Once there was a gap between the three of them,
Now the three of them are forever separated by yin and yang......
Liu Bei's gaze gradually became blurred,
I don't know why,
At this juncture,
He remembered them again,
Remembering their past,
remembered what they had experienced together,
Remembering their end now,
I only feel mixed tastes in my heart,
But I don't know how to pour it out,
In the end, it could only turn into a long sigh......
"Big-eared thief! Why don't you hurry up and surrender the city!? β
