Seeing Cao Jun pouring into the city gate one after another, a sneer rose at the corner of Liu Bei's mouth.

After Xiahoudun led his army into Xinye City, the gate of Xinye City suddenly closed.

In an instant, arrows rained down on Cao's army from all directions. The scale of Xinye Castle is not large, and the streets are not very wide, and many Cao soldiers are crowded in the streets, and there is no way to dodge the arrows. In a short time, Cao's army suffered thousands of casualties.

Hit the trick? Seeing this scene in front of him, how could Xiahoudun still wake up?

Hmph, even if you plan it, the number of troops you brought is not comparable to Liu Beijun. Even if he was accidentally attacked by Liu Beiyin, but this absolute difference in quantity is by no means offset by some bows and arrows falling stones, since he led this army into this new wild city, as long as Liu Bei's army hidden in the shadows is wiped out and the situation is quickly controlled, even if it costs a few casualties, it is nothing.

At that time, you Liu Bei will still be just a lost dog.

However, just as Xiahoudun was about to give the order for Cao Jun to attack Liu Beijun's soldiers who were hiding in the city wall and other places throwing stones and arrows, one after another fire dragons suddenly rose from the houses and streets, and in just a moment, Cao Jun was caught in a sea of fire.

How, what's going on! Seeing the flames everywhere, Xiahoudun was really shocked.

I didn't expect Liu Bei to be so ruthless, and in order to repel Cao's army, he even did not hesitate to burn the entire Xinye City.

The body was ignited by raging fire, and stones and arrows were constantly thrown around, and the Cao soldiers fell into chaos. No matter how much Xiahoudun shouted, the defeat of Cao's army was already complete, and the defeat was irretrievable.

"General, general, the matter has come to this, we can only retreat first!" Under the protection of the guards, Man Zhong came to Xiahoudun's side and persuaded him loudly. Now that the general trend has passed, the army will continue to stay in Xinye Castle only to add more casualties, and the only way to withdraw from the city as quickly as possible is the right way.

In the midst of the chaos, although Man Zhong was protected by guards, he was also shot with an arrow in the shoulder, and his face looked quite pale at this time.

Xiahoudun looked at the more and more fallen Cao soldiers around him, although he was indignant and unwilling in his heart, he also knew that he had to evacuate Xinye City as soon as possible. Otherwise, the 100,000 Cao army will really have to be explained in this small Xinye City today

"Out of town! Out of town! Xiahoudun shouted violently.

The soldiers of the Cao Army, who were near the city gate, heard the order and hurried to open the gate of Xinye City. As soon as the city gate opened, all the Cao soldiers immediately ran in the direction of the outside of Xinye City. The fire in the city is pervasive, and if you evacuate early, your life will be more secure.

Everyone rushed towards the gate of Shinno Castle, causing all the soldiers to block the gate of Shinno Castle, which became an excellent target for those archers. After a few rounds of random shooting, Cao's army added a lot of casualties.

Zhu Ling, the general of the Cao army, was unfortunately shot in the chest with a bow and arrow before leaving the city and fell off his horse. When Zhu Ling was shot, he was not dead for a while, but after he fell off his horse, he was trampled by the Cao soldiers who were scrambling to flee outside the city, and he became a puddle of flesh, and the situation was unbearable.

Liu Bei looked at the miserable scene in the city that was completely engulfed by the flames, and he felt a little unbearable in his heart. The strategy of burning the city by fire can certainly cause great damage to Cao's army, but it is also a heavy loss to the people in Xinye City, and he does not want to use this strategy unless it is absolutely necessary. However, Cao's army is huge, and 100,000 troops are overwhelming, and if you don't use extraordinary means, Xinye City will be difficult to protect.

If Xinye is lost, Jingzhou will be in danger, and when the time comes, he will lose his foothold.

Therefore, Xinye can't afford to lose no matter what, even if he uses extraordinary means, he must ensure that Xinye City is in his hands.

Although the policy of burning the city caused huge losses to the people in the city, it was mostly for property, and at least more than sixty percent of the houses in the city were burned down. Cao's army was attacked from the north of Xinye, and a day earlier, Liu Bei had all the people in the city go out of the south gate and move to some villages outside the city one after another. Therefore, although many houses were destroyed by the fire, not a single person in Xinye died in the flames.

Although the people were saddened by the loss of their property, most of the people at that time were simple. Liu Bei did enough mobilization work in advance, and described Cao Jun as more vicious than a tiger and wolf, saying that once he broke the city, he would slaughter all the living beings in the city, and when faced with the choice of life and property, people would of course choose the former. Therefore, Liu Bei's strategy of burning the city, although it burned the property of many Xinye people, not only did they not resent Liu Bei, but they would regard him as a hero who repelled Cao's army and saved the lives of the people in the city. Their property suffered huge losses, but they would only spill their anger on Cao Cao, who was on the side of the invaders, and would not blame Liu Bei, who saved their lives.

Outside Xinye City, there was no joy of survival on the faces of the Cao soldiers who escaped, only the depression after the defeat.

Liu Bei and Xu Shu, who were standing on the Xinye city wall, looked at Cao Jun outside the city from afar, with a smile on their faces.

"The enemy's fighting spirit has been completely lost, and letting General Zhang lead the army to pursue at this time will definitely make a big gain." Xu Shu said with a smile.

Liu Bei nodded, and ordered Chen Zhi and Liu Feng to organize men to extinguish the fire in the city, and after the fire weakened, Zhang Fei immediately led 20,000 elite soldiers out of the city, so as to give Cao's army a heavy blow.

After Zhang Fei received the order, he was very excited, and took 20,000 people out of the city to kill Cao Jun.

The chief general of the Cao army is Xiahoudun, and who is Xiahoudun? That's my brother's killer!

Now, he has the opportunity to kill this enemy with his own hands, how can he not make Zhang Fei excited? I've been waiting for this moment for too long, too long!

Three years, three years! You must know how many nights Zhang Fei has tossed and turned in the past three years, and it is difficult to sleep? How many nights have you been awakened from nightmares and drenched in cold sweat?

Xiahoudun led the declining Cao army to retreat to the north, and he tried to scold, wanting to increase the speed of the march. But no matter how he scolded, the legs of the Cao soldiers were like lead poured into them, and it was difficult for them to take a big step.

It is no wonder that after such a big defeat, Cao's army was already considered to be Xiahoudun's ability to command the army without the whole army being dispersed, and how could they continue to have the ability to march quickly.

But Xiahoudun was anxious, now that he was in this situation, his army could be said to have no combat power at all, if Liu Bei sent troops to pursue, then the situation would be extremely bad.

Just as the so-called fear of something, when Xiahoudun was so worried, Liu Beijun's shouting of killing sounded in the rear.

Cao Junjun had no fighting spirit, and Liu Beijun's morale was like a rainbow, so it didn't take long for Liu Beijun to catch up with the down-and-out Cao Jun.

"Array, meet the enemy!" Xiahoudun muttered loudly. Now that the enemy has been pursued, fleeing can only produce more and more casualties, and at this time, only by turning back to meet the attack can the damage be minimized.

Xiahoudun shouted there, and several other generals of the Cao army, Yu Ban, Le Jin, Cao Chun and others, also desperately wanted to reorganize the formation, but unfortunately the courage of the Cao army had been exhausted, and the efforts of Xiahoudun and others were simply a waste of strength and useless.

20,000 foot soldiers rushed into Cao's army and launched a one-sided slaughter. In the blink of an eye, more than 1,000 Cao soldiers died under Liu Beijun's swords and guns.

And Zhang Fei, the general of Liu Beijun, had already entered the enemy formation and went straight to Xiahoudun.

Zhang Fei's eyes were already red, and a boundless murderous aura emanated from his body unscrupulously, and there was only one thing he could think about now - kill Xiahoudun!

Seeing a leopard's eyes ring the beard about to kill him, Xiahoudun immediately recognized the identity of the other party - Zhang Fei.

When Guan Yu was in Cao Ying, he once said that my brother Zhang Fei had the courage of ten thousand people, and taking the head of the enemy in the army was like picking up something. When he first heard this, Xiahoudun was quite unimpressed, but at this moment, he personally felt the terrifying momentum emanating from the other party, and Xiahoudun knew that what Guan Yu said was true.

Zhang Fei rode his horse to Xiahoudun, raised his Zhangba snake spear and stabbed at the other party.

In the face of Zhang Fei's fierce attack, Xiahoudun hurriedly raised his gun to resist.

With a "bell", the moment the two guns intersected, Xia Houdun only felt that the strength of his whole body was about to be dispersed, and the tiger's mouth was even more numb.

This Zhang Fei, how can he be so powerful!
