Chapter Seventy-Four: The Death of the God of War (1)

The rushing cars knocked on the city gate one after another, and the sound was as if Xiao Peicheng was screaming in pain. The archers, who were on the railings of the well, constantly shot their arrows at the defenders on the towers. Watching the city gate being hit again and again, and watching the soldiers under his command fall one after another with arrows, Lu Bu's right hand holding Fang Tian's halberd trembled slightly because of the anger in his heart.

Although Lu Bu has a stubborn and arrogant personality, he is not a stupid person, and he sees the current situation very clearly. If those damn rushing car wells were allowed to continue to attack the city in such an arrogant manner, then this small pei city would be in a precarious position, and it would not last long before it was breached by Cao's army.

"Give me a thousand, and I'll go out of the city!" Lu Bu shouted to the lieutenant general behind him.

"Lord!"

"Prince!"

Hearing Lu Bu's decision, before the deputy general could react, Song Xian and Chen Zhi on the side had already exclaimed at the same time.

Song Xian had been following Lu Bu for a long time, while Chen Zhi was a thoughtful person, and both of them had already guessed what Lu Bu wanted to do to get out of the city. LΓΌ Bu's purpose was nothing more than to destroy Cao's siege engines, so that it could not pose a threat to Xiaopei's city defenses so easily.

But the stakes are too great! It must be known that the number of defenders in Xiaopei City is originally small, and if Lu Bu wants to go out of the city to destroy the siege equipment of Cao's army, it must be impossible to bring too many soldiers and horses. But the Cao army outside the city was densely paved, and taking a few soldiers and horses out of the city was tantamount to suicide!

Besides, at this time, the Cao army is attacking the city very urgently, can this city gate be opened? I'm afraid that as soon as the city gate is opened, the Cao army outside the city will crowd into the city.

"My lord, no!" Song Xian persuaded bitterly, "If Xiao Pei really can't hold it, I'll wait for a big deal and go straight to Xiapi, why should the lord be in danger?" Although the lord is invincible in the world, there are 50,000 Cao troops outside the city. ”

When Lu Bu heard this, he was silent. Although Song Xian's words were reasonable, Lu Bu really felt aggrieved. The Cao army launched round after round of onslaught, and the casualties of the self-army became heavier and heavier, but he could only hide in the city like a turtle and could not counterattack, how could the arrogant Lu Bu swallow this breath?

"Junhou, General Song is right, this is not a good opportunity to go out of the city to fight." Chen Zhi also persuaded on the side, "What's more, the Cao army has been attacking the city without stopping, if the city gate is opened at this time, it may cause irreparable consequences." ”

Chen Zhi's identity is no better than Song Xian, Song Xian is the general under Lu Bu's account, although Lu Bu himself has a violent temper, but he himself is also extremely nostalgic, and treats old generals such as Song Xian and Wei Xu as brothers, so it doesn't matter if they talk to Lu Bu in a casual tone. But Chen is different, although he is not Lu Bu's subordinate, he must always show a respectful attitude in front of Lu Bu. Lu Bu has a moody personality, and he may offend him if he is slightly inappropriately worded in front of him, Chen Zhi has a rigorous personality, although he looks down on Lu Bu in his heart, but at least he can't clash with him because of the gains and losses in words.

"According to what Uncle Zhi said, can we only watch Cao Jun break through the city?" Lu Bu gritted his teeth and said, obviously hating those siege engines outside the city to the extreme.

At the same time, a strange thought also appeared in Lu Bu's heart: "If I had these siege equipment, I'm afraid I would have occupied the entire territory of Yanzhou a long time ago......"

Envy, jealousy and hatred, mixed tastes......

"The only way to do this now is to stick to it...... Maybe hold on until the night, and there may be a hint of a turnaround......" Faced with Lu Bu's questioning, Chen Zhi could only answer like this. His tone was full of continued helplessness, obviously that there was a hint of a turnaround, but he blindly broke it out to comfort Lu Bu.

It's just that the speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional, only to see a glimmer of light flashing in Lu Bu's eyes.

"At night?"

Lu Bu recalled his experience when he attacked Dongjun City, that time he also had the absolute upper hand, seeing that the city was just around the corner, but he never thought that because of the negligence at night, he was brutally robbed by the hateful Cao General with hundreds of soldiers and horses, so that the morale plummeted, and the final success was lost.

Now it seems that that night attack may have been a turning point in the offensive and defensive battles of the entire Dongjun City. The more Lu Bu thought about it, the more angry he became, since Cao Cao's men could lead hundreds of people in their own military camp and then leave, why couldn't he use his own way to govern others?

Coming and not being rude, Lu Bu made up his mind, and after nightfall, he would go to Cao Ying to make a good fuss to avenge the revenge of the day. The plan was decided, Lu Bu only felt his blood surging, and even began to delusionally think about Cao Cao's panicked look when Cao Ying was stirred up by himself at night.

However, Lu Bu has never thought deeply, if Cao Cao will be as negligent as himself, is it still Cao Cao?

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

Although the Cao army was outnumbered and a large number of siege weapons such as rushing cars and well fences were also deployed, under the strict defense of the LΓΌ Bu army, the Cao army finally failed to break through Xiaopei's city wall on the first day. After leaving behind nearly 3,000 corpses, Cao's army finally retreated.

According to specific statistics, 3,410 of the 8,000 defenders were killed, 915 were seriously wounded and could no longer fight, and only a pitiful 3,600 soldiers remained. If the Cao army's offensive is still so fierce tomorrow, Lu Bu knows that Xiaopeicheng will definitely not be able to hold it.

"I want to take advantage of the night to destroy the siege equipment of the Cao army, what do you think?" In the conference hall, Lu Bu looked around at the generals and asked.

Although he opened his mouth to inquire, Lu Bu's tone was categorical, indicating his determination to go out of the city to fight.

Chen Gong opened his mouth to persuade him, but in the end he didn't say a word. Lu Bu had already made a decision, and he would never change it, even if he told him that Cao Cao's character would be well-guarded, he would dismiss it. Moreover, the current situation is indeed very unoptimistic, and if nothing else, the city will be destroyed tomorrow. Although there is still Xiapi to retreat, will Cao Jun stop abruptly after capturing Xiaopei? At that time, his troops will be under the city of Pi, and Liu Bei will not be able to hold it.

Now we can only hope that Lu Bu's departure from the city this time can really bring some surprises to Cao Jun, this is a true portrayal of Chen Gong's helplessness.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Take care! "Thousands of thoughts, in the end, can only be gathered into these four words, spit out from Chen Gong's mouth.

From these simple and heavy four words, Lu Bu could feel Chen Gong's sincere concern for him. I saw that he nodded heavily and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, I hereby make a promise that I will destroy all those broken things of Cao Cao, and then retreat and return safely!" Lu Bu is a person who relieves his promises, and since the words have been spoken, he will definitely do it! ”

"Get on the horse! Out of town! Lu Bu took Song Xian, Wei Xu, and a thousand people who were ready to go, and under the gaze of Chen Dao, Chen Gong and a cadre, his figure gradually drifted away......
