What are two people who fight until they are exhausted and want to collapse as soon as possible? Of course, the other party came to help, and this helper is much stronger than himself! Now both Xiahoudun and Liu Bei are facing this problem.

When Liu Pan and Wei Yan appeared on the battlefield with 3,500 cavalry, Cao Jun and Liu Bei's troops, who had been fighting each other a few minutes earlier, were stunned.

Xiahoudun's first reaction was that his reinforcements came, but then he found out that something was wrong, the cavalry he sent to gather the people did not come back, and the two cavalry members who came did not know him, and the banner clearly wrote the word Liu Da.

Worst! This is Liu Bei's reinforcements? He has cavalry, and there are so many?

Xiahoudun's next reaction was to run as soon as possible, he must find a way to escape, and go back to report the situation to the prime minister, Liu Bei's strength has risen too fast, and he must send troops to destroy him as soon as possible. It's late, it's fast. Xiahoudun immediately issued an order to several generals around him, ordering everyone to leave the battlefield as soon as possible and flee for their lives.

Liu Bei, who was a little to the south, saw the dust in the sky and thought to himself that Cao Cao's reinforcements had arrived so soon, and today was miserable. When I saw that it was thousands of cavalry, my heart was even colder. Xiahoudun's cavalry was already almost unstoppable for him, and with a few thousand more cavalry, the two teams of men and horses could easily wrap themselves in dumplings. Because his first reaction was to run, it was too late to go east, and it would be a dead end if he encountered Cai Mao's infantry.

Liu Bei immediately summoned Guan Yu and others, ready to gather the last strength to cross the Yangtze River!

The two troops, who were still fighting just now, suddenly separated very tacitly, Xiahoudun to the east and Liu Bei to the south, both of them ran desperately!

By the time Liu Pan and Wei Yan led the people to arrive at the scene of the fierce battle just now, there were only countless corpses left.

"Wen Chang, what should I do?" Liu Pan also hesitated, regretting that he came out too early, now Xiahoudun still has more than 2,000 cavalry, Liu Bei still has 4,000 or 5,000 infantry, if he and Wei Yan divide their troops to chase, they may not be able to take advantage.

"Chase Xiahoudun first, Liu Bei's infantry can't run far!" When Wei Yan came out, Liu Cong had instructed him that it was indeed not a good time to attack Liu Bei's troops now. After all, Cao Cao was Liu Cong's biggest enemy, and letting thousands of cavalry go back was a crime against his own troops.

Liu Pan thought about it and felt that it made sense, his 3,500 cavalry, even if he let Liu Bei run for an hour first, he was not afraid of not being able to catch up, and Xiahoudun ran eastward, although Huang Zhong's 2,000 infantry was an ambush, he would definitely not be able to help Xiahoudun. So he ordered the cavalry to pursue Xiahoudun to the east.

Seeing Liu Pan chasing after him, Xiahoudun broke out in a cold sweat. The whip in his hand kept waving, and the war horse under his crotch was also whipped painfully, making a slight long sound. And a mile away is the ambush place where Huang Zhong led his troops, Huang Zhong thought that it should be Liu Bei who fled to this place, after all, Liu Bei was twice as numerous as Xiahoudun, and the smaller the number of cavalry, the more difficult it was. Coupled with the local advantages of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and others, the cavalry could not break through on the whole line. As the battle progressed, Xiahoudun would definitely choose to flee.

Then Liu Pan drove Liu Bei to the east, and when he saw Xiahoudun coming with more than 2,000 cavalry, Huang Zhong was also nervous. However, he quickly calmed down, because he saw Liu Pan and Wei Yan behind him. The soldiers who were in ambush were immediately ordered to rush out together.

Xiahoudun was closely pursued by Liu Pan and others, the horses were so tired that they were about to lie down, and the soldiers on the horses were also so tired that they collapsed.

Huang Zhong's appearance is undoubtedly tantamount to the death sentence of Xiahoudun. Having experienced a hundred battles, he immediately knew that no matter whether these people were Liu Bei's people or not, they should be Liu Cong's troops. My heart trembled! Liu Bei only had more than 10,000 people, and Xiahoudun was fearless. But if Liu Cong came for himself, Xiangyang had fifty or sixty thousand elite soldiers. I don't know how many people came here to ambush myself today, so I turned around and fled to the north!

The main general is like this, and the soldiers under him are even more so, they are all tired like dead dogs, if Xiahoudun had been strict in governing the army before, and saw a glimmer of hope for victory, this army would have collapsed long ago. With the sharp decline in the number of Liu Bei's troops and the brief riots, all the Cao soldiers believed that they would be able to defeat Liu Bei as long as they held out for half an hour.

Then Liu Pan's appearance completely shattered their hopes. A group of two thousand cavalry who had been fighting for most of the day and were wounded, and there were three or four thousand living cavalry opponents! This time, almost no one in the Cao army had the heart to resist. Xia Hou Dun gave an order, and they all followed Xia Hou Dun to the east. By the time Huang Zhong and his people appeared, the cavalry troops had completely dispersed this time!

Attacking a force without resistance in front and back, the advantages of Liu Pan and Huang Zhong and others were too obvious.

As a result, there was another scene of thousands of miles of pursuit on the Hanchuan Plain, and Xiahoudun's 2,000 cavalry gradually became 1,500 or 1,000...... Huang Zhong's infantry was useless at the moment, so he continued to return to the previous battlefield to monitor Liu Bei's movements.

Liu Pan and Wei Yan chased after Cao Jun like two tigers descending from the mountain. Until he chased out fifty or sixty miles, Xiahoudun's troops were less than five hundred people left.

If it weren't for his subordinates desperately protecting Xiahoudun, Xiahoudun would have become a prisoner at this moment.

And Xiahoudun was lucky, in the face of such a fierce enemy, he could still go back to see Prime Minister Cao alive, because he saw that Liu Pan, who was chasing after him, had stopped. Liu Pan was also very embarrassed at this time, if he kept chasing Xiahoudun, then if Liu Bei ran away, this operation would still not be completed. Wei Yan is also constantly fighting ideologically in the chase battle, and it is Wei Yan's dream to capture Xiahoudun alive. , but he prefers to capture Liu Bei alive and Guan Yu alive!

Liu Pan and Wei Yan exchanged glances in tacit understanding, and then led the troops back.

It was Liu Bei who helped Xiahoudun, if Xiahoudun knew, I don't know how he would feel, this world turned out to be so wonderful!

And Liu Bei was also puzzled, Liu Pan and others were menacing, but they did not pursue him. Xiahoudun didn't recognize Liu Pan and Wei Yan, but Liu Bei was unforgettable, and it was these people who followed Liu Cong at the martial arts competition a year ago. Liu Pan almost killed Guan Ping in seconds, so that Liu Bei remembered him deeply.

When he saw Liu Pan and the others go to chase Xiahoudun, Liu Bei knew that his only chance to escape was coming!

No matter how much resistance there is on the Yangtze River, we must take this opportunity to break through the Yangtze River to Jingnan!

Originally, the battlefield where Liu Bei chose to fight with Xiahoudun was only a dozen miles away from the Yangtze River, and after a rapid march, everyone came to the Yangtze River. After counting, there were still four thousand people left. The people of Xinye have long run away.

Liu Bei couldn't take care of them at the moment. While slowing down the pace of the march, he sent people to the river to investigate, and at the same time sent Guan Yu and others to look around for ships that could be used.

"My lord, on the Yangtze River, there is only one army of about thirty warships, and the security is not very strict, and the battle line is very long. There were about 2,000 soldiers on board, but there were still 1,000 men stationed on the shore, and ten ships were idle. ”

"My lord, we found five fishing boats from the nearby docks, which can carry about a hundred people at a time."

There are good and bad hours, but Liu Bei is at a loss. He didn't understand why Liu Pan gave up himself to chase Xiahoudun, could it be that Liu Cong did not surrender to Cao Cao? After hesitating, Guan Yu, Xu Shu and others came in.

"My lord, General Guan and others have searched everywhere, but there are not many ships. We must cross the river as soon as possible, we really can't do it, we can only sneak attack the army by the river......" Xu Shu reminded Liu Bei.

"This ...... Is it appropriate? "The army by the river, someone has already told Liu Bei that Liu Cong was sent from Xiangyang and has been following him here, if Liu Cong has completely surrendered to Cao Cao, then Liu Bei will not hesitate to choose to sneak attack and seize the ship. But Liu Pan didn't chase after him, but went after Xiahoudun......

"Lord...... That Liu Pan had nearly 4,000 cavalry, and he knew that we were infantry and couldn't run fast, so he wanted to eat Cao Jun first and then turn back to clean us up. Xiahoudun is exhausted like us, and he must not be Liu Pan's opponent. In less than an hour, we will surely return to our division, and if we do not cross the river within this time, we will be completely annihilated! At this time, Xu Shu showed a military calmness.

Although it will pay a lot of price to sneak attack the sailor, at least it can ensure that Liu Bei and other major generals can cross the river, if Liu Pan turns around, in case Cai Mao sends troops from Shaxian in the east again, and then acts together on water and land, then Liu Bei is dumpling stuffing to be slaughtered.

"Yes, my lord, make a decision as soon as possible!" Jian Yong, Mi Zhu and others also strongly persuaded Liu Bei.

"Okay, notify the troops, prepare to force the Yangtze River!"
