Chapter 159: Escape?
When Liu Bei was about to rush out of Cao Cao's Chinese army village, suddenly a Cao army rushed to kill and was blocking in front of the gate of the village, Liu Bei glanced at the fire behind him, and knew that life and death were in one fell swoop!! ”
"Kill, !!"
Liu Bei shouted, under the cover of the guards, the long sword in his hand rushed straight to Cao Jun, and the surrounding Liu Beijun soldiers also knew that if they did not break through, they would definitely be burned to death.
Liu Bei's army rushed out of the gate, the soldiers of the Cao army also rushed to kill, the soldiers of the two armies launched a fierce battle of life and death around the gate of the Chinese army, although Liu Bei's soldiers fought desperately, but the place where the gate was too small, only more than 20 soldiers could fight with the enemy at a time, Liu Bei's army rushed to kill several times, or failed to break through the Cao army to highlight the village.
Under the offensive of fire and rockets, Liu Bei's soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and the fire continued to spread, trapping Liu Bei's soldiers in a small open space, and countless feather arrows attacked one after another, Liu Bei's army could only rely on a small number of shields to barely maintain, and it was difficult to organize the sergeants to break through again.
Liu Bei looked at the fire in the camp and the Cao army formation in front of the village, and felt sad in his heart, God will die to me, am I really going to die here?
The sky is hateful, don't help Cao or Liu!!
There were fewer and fewer sergeants around Liu Bei, and in order to avoid being burned to death by the fire and humiliated by Cao's army, Liu Bei raised his sword violently, and wanted to kill himself with a horizontal sword!!
Fortunately, Liu Bei's personal guards were all guarding Liu Bei's side, and seeing that the situation was wrong, he hurriedly stepped forward and snatched the sword from Liu Bei's hand, and persuaded loudly: "Lord, don't do this, I am willing to break through again and escort the lord to rush out of here!! ”
Liu Bei laughed, even the tears in his eyes laughed, and he laughed like a madman: "Hahahaha, I am also killed by heaven, and it is not a crime of war!" Our army is tired and it is already difficult to rush out, so let's ......"
"Don't panic, lord! Elk Fang also !! ”
"Hurry forward, disperse this Cao army, and go to the rescue of the lord !!"
"Kill, !!"
Just when Liu Bei was desperate, a shout suddenly came from outside the village, followed by countless shouts and killings, it was Elfang who saw the fire in the Chinese army's Dazhai, and had a premonition that Liu Bei might have encountered danger, and specially led the army to come to the rescue, Elfang killed the Chinese army in Dazhai, saw a group of Cao Jun blocking the gate of the village, and hurriedly led the army to rush to kill, wanting to rescue Liu Bei!
When Liu Bei heard the shouts outside, he was immediately overjoyed, and shouted loudly: "Zifang is here, it is Zifang who led the army to save us!" The troops listened to the order, and the reinforcements arrived, and they quickly broke through with me!! ”
"Reinforcements have arrived, it's General Elk who has arrived, brothers, kill !!"
"Hahahaha, reinforcements have come to save us, brothers, protect the lord and kill !!"
Liu Bei's soldiers heard the shouts outside, but also their hearts were overjoyed, all shouted loudly to escort Liu Bei rushed to the Cao army in front of the village again, the Cao army that blocked the gate of the village was only more than 1,000 people, Elfang personally led thousands of soldiers and horses to come, under the attack of Liu Bei and Elfang, the Cao army was quickly slaughtered, and Liu Bei also rushed out of the army Dazhai and Elfang together.
Cao Cao stood on top of the wall in the distance, and when he saw Liu Bei rushing out and not being burned to death by the fire, he chuckled and said, "Hmph! The big-eared thief is fateful, but he has already fallen into our army, so don't think about leaving tonight! Okay, don't wait for Guan Yu any longer, launch the arrow, let Zixiao and them all come out, and then solve Guan Yu after Liu Bei in this battle! ”
"Whoosh!! Sou!!! Sou!!! ”
"Bang!! Bang!!! Bang!!! ”
"Hahahaha, the enemy is in the middle of the plan, our army will win this battle, brothers, kill with me, capture Liu Bei alive!!"
"Capture Liu Bei alive!! Capture Liu Bei alive!! Capture Liu Bei alive!! ”
……
Cao Cao gave an order, Xu Chu personally took a bow and led the arrows, and the three horn arrows then exploded in the sky above Cao Ying, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun saw Cao ** out of the arrow, all of them shouted, and they all led their soldiers and horses to Liu Bei's army to surround and kill.
After Liu Bei and Lu Fang joined forces, Lu Fang asked urgently: "Lord, I don't know what happened, why did the enemy army Dazhai catch fire?" ”
Liu Bei coughed a few times, and replied urgently: "Cao's army has already prepared, we have been tricked, withdraw the army quickly and break through the siege!! ”
At this time, Cao Ren and the four of them led the army to kill, and the shouts of Cao Jun came from all directions, and Lu Fang heard the movement outside the camp, no need for Liu Bei to say more, he also knew what was going on, and hurriedly shouted: "The army listens to the order, quickly escort the lord to break through!! ”
Liu Bei's army gathered in one place, and hurriedly broke through in the direction where he came, at this time, the sergeants of Cao Jun's front village had been almost killed by Liu Bei's army, Liu Bei passed through Cao Jun's front village very smoothly, but just when Liu Bei was about to break out of Cao Jun's front village, the surrounding Cao army also happened to besiege and kill.
"Hahahaha, big-eared thief, you can't run away, brothers kill me, don't leave Liu Bei!!"
"Kill, don't go, Liu Bei!!"
"Capture Liu Bei alive !!"
At this time, the soldiers and horses that came were the 10,000 soldiers and horses led by Cao Ren and Cao Hong, Cao Ren and Cao Hong both led the army to ambush near the front village, and when they rushed to kill, they met together and joined forces to kill here, just blocking Liu Bei's army.
Cao Jun saw that the enemy's army was surrounded and killed by his own army, and his morale was high, and the fighting spirit was vigorous, and all the generals and soldiers saw Liu Bei's defeated army, and they all shouted and rushed towards Liu Bei's army; On the contrary, Liu Bei's troops and horses were different, they were ambushed, and even the lord was almost burned to death by the fire, and they were all brave and eager to break through, and their hearts were panicked and demoralized.
The soldiers and horses of the two sides just fought together, Liu Bei's army was defeated and retreated by Cao Jun's killing, not only did not rush out of the walled gate, but was also killed by Cao Jun and retreated to the camp, Liu Bei's soldiers saw that they could not break through here, and many soldiers abandoned the army's large array and began to flee in all directions.
Lu Fang was also shocked when he saw Cao Ren and Cao Hong killed, he followed Liu Bei to stay in Cao Jun, and naturally knew that he was a few catties and a few taels, he was far from being the opponent of Cao Ren and Cao Hong.
After Lu Fang saw the two of them, he saw that his army really failed to rush out, so he hurriedly looked at Liu Bei and said urgently: "Lord, the two generals of the Cao army will be Cao Ren and Cao Hong, I'm afraid we won't be able to break through here, should we try somewhere else!" ”
Liu Bei saw that Elfang looked frightened, and he didn't dare to break through at all, so he could only sigh and say, "Okay, let's try to break through from elsewhere!" ”
Liu Bei and Elfang were afraid that Cao Jun would find their traces, and they didn't dare to greet the soldiers and horses with great fanfare, so they could only lead the surrounding sergeants to adjust the direction and find other places to break through, but fortunately, the Liu Beijun soldiers in front were still fighting with Cao Jun, Cao Ren and Cao Hong could not rush into the front village, and did not find the whereabouts of Liu Bei and Elfang.
……
Twenty miles away from the Cao army camp, within the mountain valley, Guan Yu's camp.
I have to say that there is still some truth in this sentence that the hero sees the same!
Although Guan Yu did not go to Xiaopei to get Liu Bei's order to him, he also chose to lurk the army in the mountain, after all, the mountain is very close to Xiapicheng and the Cao army's camp, the mountains and forests in the mountain are dense and the valleys are crisscrossed, and more than 10,000 soldiers and horses lurking in the mountain can not make a little wave, let alone the Cao army reconnaissance cavalry, even if Cao Cao sends all the soldiers and horses under his command to the mountain, it will take a certain amount of time to find out the situation in the mountain.
Cao Cao was still facing the threat of Yuan Shao, he naturally couldn't waste time in the mountain, and it was precisely because of this that Liu Bei asked Jian Yong to convey the order to Guan Yu to ambush in the mountain, although Guan Yu did not get Liu Bei's military order, but he used this place as an ambush place.
Although Guan Yu's army was ambushed in the valley, Guan Yu's tent was arranged on a hidden slope, as long as Guan Yu walked out of the tent, he could overlook the Cao army's camp and Cao's army's siege from afar, so he could also calmly decide the timing of the troops.
When Guan Yu was resting tonight, a sergeant suddenly came to report: "General, there is a shout of killing when the Cao camp is on fire, and it is suspected that there are soldiers and horses attacking the Cao army camp at night!! ”
"What? Is there such a thing? ”
When Guan Yu heard the sergeant's words, he couldn't even bother to put on his clothes, and hurriedly ran out of the tent to look in the direction of the Cao Jun camp, only to see that the Cao Jun camp was in flames, and there were faint shouts of killing. When Guan Yu saw the situation of the Cao army camp, he was immediately overjoyed, and said urgently: "Hahahaha, this must be my eldest brother who led the army to sneak attack the Cao army camp, and the Cao army camp is in flames, this must be the success of our army!" Quickly reorganize the troops and horses, and after I put on them, I will personally lead the army to help in the battle!! ”
"No, I'll wait for the order, go and gather soldiers and horses here!"
Guan Yu couldn't wait to return to the handsome tent to put on his armor, and lifted the Qinglong Yanyue knife next to him and hurried towards the valley of the garrison, when Guan Yu arrived at the valley, the soldiers of the army were already waiting at the mouth of the valley, Guan Yu took the reins handed over by the sergeant, turned over his horse, and shouted: "The lord led the army to attack Cao Ying at night, Cao Ying was blazing, this must be the success of the lord in one fell swoop, you will quickly follow me to help the war!" This battle is bound to break through the enemy's camp and capture the thief!! ”
"Break through the Cao camp and capture the Cao thief alive !!"
"Break through the Cao camp and capture the Cao thief alive !!"
"Break through the Cao camp and capture the Cao thief alive !!"
When the soldiers heard Guan Yu's shout, they thought that Liu Bei was really done, they were just going to pick up credit, and they were all excited, and they shouted loudly.
"Follow Me to !!"
Guan Yu shouted, carrying the Qinglong Yanyue Knife, and personally led the army under his command to go straight to the Cao camp, and the soldiers of Guan Yu's army held torches and played like a fire dragon, rolling straight towards the Cao army camp.
……
Cao Jun's camp, five miles away, is the place where the ambush army is happy.
Le Jin led 10,000 soldiers and horses to ambush outside the Cao military camp, Le Jin and his soldiers can only watch others fight and make meritorious contributions in the big camp here, and their hearts are naturally extremely greedy, Liu Bei's army is demoralized and defeated like a mountain, this battle is as easy as picking it up for nothing, if luck comes to be able to capture and kill Liu Bei, this is a great merit!
But now, I and others are watching, and I can't share the credit at all, so you say that you are particularly annoying!!
A general of Cao Jun snorted coldly and said, "I don't know if Guan Yu is hiding here, do you want us to wait here?" ”
Another general of Cao Jun also responded: "But isn't it, if Guan Yu was stationed here, I'm afraid he would have already been killed, but there has been no movement at all until now, I don't think Guan Yu is ambushed here at all, but unfortunately, we are afraid that we have no credit at all in this battle!" ”
A lieutenant of the Cao military academy also said unevenly: "General Xu led the army to Xiaopei to lure and annihilate Zhang Fei, which is also a credit, where is it like us, hey!" ”
……
Le Jin heard the sour words of the generals under his command there, and he was extremely impatient, you and I are willing to wait here to see others make contributions, but there is a military order from the prime minister, what can I do, I am very helpless, what are you forcing me here?
Le Jin snorted coldly and reprimanded: "Hmph! Well, no more ado! Before the order of the lord's army, let me wait to ambush here, and if I don't see Guan Yu's army, I can't kill it, can you not disobey the order? ”
The generals are just complaining here, and as for disobeying Cao Cao's military orders, they don't dare to give them ten dares!
The generals couldn't help but shudder when they thought of Cao Cao's might, and hurriedly bowed down and said: "I don't dare to wait, it's just a complaint, and I ask the general to forgive me!" ”
Le Jin looked at the faces of the generals, although he was also very unhappy, but he could only comfort: "The lord is like a god, and the military advisor is resourceful, since the lord and the military advisor have guessed that Guan Yu will ambush the army here, then Guan Yu will definitely be here!" They all return to their headquarters to be on guard, and after hearing my military order, they will follow me to make meritorious contributions! ”
When the generals heard Le Jin's words, they bowed again: "No, we will receive the order!" ”
As soon as the generals returned to their headquarters in the army, they saw a sudden vision in front of them, and there was really a soldier and horse with torches to kill from the mountain, like a long dragon straight towards their own camp!!
After the generals saw this army of soldiers and horses, they didn't need to confirm that they had already decided that this must be Guan Yu's army, and they didn't have any soldiers and horses to set up an ambush in the mountains, and the only soldiers and horses under Liu Bei who had not yet appeared were Guan Yu, and there would be no one else in this army except Guan Yu!
The generals thought about what they had complained about just now, and they couldn't help but blush, the lord and the military advisor really knew everything like a god, but they didn't expect Guan Yu to really ambush here, but since you are here, then don't think about leaving again!!
Cao Cao and Guo Jia also guessed that Guan Yu was very likely to be ambushed in the mountain, so he let him ambush in a high ground on the flank of the mountain, and set up an ambush here will not be discovered by Guan Yu who may ambush the army in the mountain, and when Guan Yu kills out, his army must also pass by the front of this high ground before he can go to Cao Ying, and Le Jin can also be killed by surprise, giving Guan Yu a surprise!
Le Jin looked at the enemy army getting closer and closer, and his heart became more and more nervous and expectant, after a while, this army finally came to the front of the high slope, Le Jin followed the light of the enemy's torches, only to see that the enemy army was in front of a 'Guan' word flag, and there was a burly general holding the Qinglong Yanyue knife under the banner, this person was not Guan Yu, or who was it?
Le Jin saw Guan Yu's soldiers and horses coming to the front, and secretly ordered all the troops to prepare with bows and arrows, and when Guan Yu's army passed by from the slope, Le Jin shouted: "Release the arrows!" Triple Shot!! ”
"Whoosh!! Whoosh!! Whoosh!! ”
"Whoosh!! Whoosh!! Whoosh!! ”
"Whoosh!! Whoosh!! Whoosh!! ”
……
In an instant, Cao Jun shot out a full three bursts of arrow rain, and the continuous rain of arrows shot straight at the unsuspecting Guan Yu army, Guan Yu's troops and horses immediately fell to the ground in the middle, Guan Yu saw the feather arrows coming, while dialing the feather arrows, while shouting: "Raise the shield, form a formation, guard against arrow attacks!" ”
After the soldiers of Guan Yu's army encountered a rain of arrows, they hurriedly gathered together in twos and threes to raise their shields for defense, and after Guan Yu's army began to take precautions, the casualties were immediately much less.
After three rounds of arrow rain were fired, Le Jin saw that Guan Yu's army had been prepared, and it was difficult for the arrow rain to achieve much success, so he shouted loudly again: "All the troops listen to the order, follow me to rush and kill, capture Guan Yu!! ”
"Kill!! Capture Guan Yu!! ”
Countless soldiers of the Cao army shouted loudly and rushed down from the high slope and went straight to Guan Yu's army!
When Guan Yu went to Huaishui, he only brought 20,000 soldiers and horses, and after leaving one soldier as a suspicious soldier, there were only 15,000 soldiers and horses left under his command; The three rounds of feather arrows just now were fired, and one or two thousand Guan Yu's soldiers lost their combat power; Guan Yu's troops and horses suffered an ambush and their morale declined, while Cao's army was a successful strategy and their morale was greatly boosted.
The army of the Lejin Department condescended to kill Guan Yu with the help of the momentum, and the soldiers and horses of the Guan Yu Department were caught off guard, and they were defeated and retreated by the Cao army, and Lejin also held a long knife to take Guan Yu directly!
Guan Yu didn't expect that there was an ambush of the Cao army here, and there was a faint bad premonition in his heart, could it be that the battle situation of the Cao camp was different from what he guessed, otherwise how could there be an ambush of the Cao army here?
Guan Yu glanced at the general and shouted: "Who is coming, Guan Mou will not kill the unknown person under the knife!! ”
The long knife in Le Jin's hand pointed directly at Guan Yu, and replied loudly: "Hahahaha, Guan Yu, when you get to Jiuquan, don't forget that the person who killed you is the general under the command of the Prime Minister, Le Jin Le Wenqian!! ”
Guan Yu sneered and shouted again: "Your army camp is on fire, and if you don't return to the army to rescue quickly, you dare to entangle with me here, don't you want the life of your prime minister?" ”
Le Jin heard Guan Yu's shouting, and the corners of his mouth smiled playfully, as a general under Cao Cao, how could he not guess the intention of Guan Yu's words? However, Le Jin also has a plan in his heart, Guan Yu's martial arts are excellent, he can use Liu Bei's matter to distract him, so he replied loudly: "Hahahaha, Guan Yunchang, I know your intentions, but it is okay to answer your questions!" At this time, it was not my prime minister who was burned in the camp, but your eldest brother Liu Bei and Liu Xuande! Liu Bei personally led the army to attack our army's camp at night, and the prime minister of my family had already set up an ambush to wait, and Liu Bei might have died in the chaos at this time! ”
"Thief, look for !! death"
When Guan Yu heard Le Jin's words, his face suddenly changed greatly, so he took Le Jin directly with the Qinglin Yanyue Knife in his hand, wanting to kill Le Jin and force Cao Jun to retreat, so that he could lead the army to rescue Liu Bei again!
When Le Jin was crusading against Dong Zhuo in the Princes' Alliance, he had already seen Guan Yu's force with his own eyes, and he naturally couldn't despise Guan Yu like Hua Xiong, seeing Guan Yu coming with a knife, Le Jin also hurriedly slapped his horse and used all his body to meet Guan Yu!
Guan Yu and Le Jin fought together in an instant, Guan Yu's hand Qinglong Yanyue knife was powerful, and the long knife in Le Jin's hand was also powerful, the two fought for a round, although they were not up or down, but they also figured out the depth of each other. Le Jin saw that Guan Yu was really excellent in martial arts, and he didn't dare to underestimate Guan Yu in his heart, so he hurriedly cheered up and responded, Guan Yu saw that Le Jin was also very human, and hurriedly launched an attack again to win against Le Jin!
The two of you come and go, and soon they fought for fifty or sixty rounds, and the situation is not equal, but at this time on the battlefield, Cao Jun has already gained the upper hand, almost all of them are pressing Guan Yu's army, Guan Yu saw that the war was not going well, and his heart was even more impatient, but Le Jin was seeking victory in a steady manner and did not give Guan Yu a chance at all, and the two soon fought again for dozens of rounds, Guan Yu still failed to win Le Jin!
When the two were at a stalemate, they suddenly saw another army of soldiers and horses coming in the distance, and the coming army was mighty and powerful, Guan Yu and Le Jin also knew that the key to this battle was coming, and now it depends on whose reinforcements this army is!
Both of them hurriedly forced each other back, looked in the direction of the incoming army, and saw that this army of soldiers and horses turned out to be led by a scribe, and the person who came shouted: "I am the elk Zhu Zizhong, but General Yun Chang is here?" ”
When Guan Yu heard that the incoming army turned out to be Lu Zizhong, he was immediately overjoyed, and shouted loudly: "Zizhong, I am Guan Yu, help me kill Cao Jun!" ”
"Great, sure enough, General Guan is here, kill the enemy with me!"
"Hahahaha, it's our reinforcements that have arrived! Brothers, fight back quickly!! ”
Elk Zhu shouted, and then led the army to join the battlefield, the soldiers and horses of Guan Yu on the battlefield also cheered up and began to fight back, under the joint efforts of the two armies, they soon forced the soldiers and horses of the Lejin Institute to retreat to the hillside, after repelling the Cao army, Lu Zhu hurriedly beat the horse to Guan Yu's horse, and said urgently: "General Guan, the lord was trapped in the Cao army camp, the enemy army has many fierce generals, I can't kill the rescue, my soldiers and horses will also be handed over to the general, and please ask the general to quickly speed the army to rescue the lord!" ”
Guan Yu had expected this in his heart, and asked urgently: "Where is the eldest brother trapped, you quickly lead the way and wait for me to go to the rescue!" ”
Lu Zhu hurriedly replied: "The lord is trapped in the front village of the Cao army, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun and others led the army to besiege, I can't find the opportunity to kill the rescue, and I don't dare to use troops urgently so as not to cut off the hope of rescuing the lord, hearing the sound of killing here, I guessed that it may be the general here, so I hurriedly rushed to help, and now it's great to meet the general!" I'm leading the way, and the general is coming with me! ”
"All the armies obeyed the order, and went with me to rescue the Lord !!"
Guan Yu shouted, led the army here, followed Lu Zhu and rolled straight towards the Cao army camp.
Unexpectedly, Le Jin saw that Guan Yu's army was about to leave, so he summoned the soldiers and horses to kill again, and followed Guan Yu's army to pursue, Guan Yu was anxious to rescue Liu Bei, and he had no time to entangle with Le Jin, so he could only leave three thousand soldiers and horses behind, and then lead the rest of the soldiers and horses to continue to kill the Cao army camp!
……
Liu Bei and Lu Fang saw that Cao Jun Qianzhai could not break through, so he led more than 1,000 soldiers and horses to look for other places to break out, Liu Bei and the two rushed left and right, and finally led the army to kill near the east gate of Cao Junqianzhai.
Liu Bei and Lu Fang looked at the two Cao Jun generals with the help of the firelight, only to see that these two people were Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan brothers, Liu Bei and the two of them saw the coming general, and their hearts were holding grass for a while, Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan were more brave than Cao Ren and Cao Hong brothers, and the two of them were not opponents.
After Liu Bei and the two saw the Xiahou brothers, they quickly led the army to retreat towards the village, and the Xiahou Yuan brothers saw the Xuzhou army, and hurriedly waved the army to cover the killing, Liu Bei had no choice but to leave a part of the soldiers and horses behind, and then continued to retreat to the depths of the camp.
Seeing that there was no way to kill the two walled gates, Elfang said softly: "Lord, there is no other way now, we can only climb over the wall!" ”
When Liu Bei heard Elfang's words, he understood what he meant, since he wanted to climb over the wall, the fewer soldiers and horses he would bring, the better, otherwise when he crossed the wall, it would not only take a long time, but also be easily discovered by Cao Jun.
The reason why Liu Bei didn't choose to climb over the wall just now was to bring out more soldiers and horses, but now that the matter has come to this, Liu Bei has no choice!
Liu Bei led his soldiers and horses to rush left and right in Cao's camp, and the sergeants who followed him became fewer and fewer, and in the end, there were only dozens of light horsemen left around Liu Bei, Liu Bei looked at the number of sergeants around him was appropriate, and hurriedly led the army to a place where the wall was burned down.
Liu Bei asked the soldiers to find some tents and planks, and made a slope at the place of the wall, and everyone hurriedly rode through the gap to the outside of the wall. Liu Bei saw that he had finally escaped, and he was immediately overjoyed, in such a desperate situation, he could survive in a desperate situation, it seems that God still favors him!
When Liu Bei and the others were happy, they saw a light horse suddenly galloping in the distance, Liu Bei and the soldiers were suddenly shocked, and hurriedly looked in the direction of the incoming army, wanting to determine which soldiers and horses this was at the first time!!
