Li Chuan received news from Li Ru that Li Ru and Hua Xiong, the two old partners of Xiliang, were blocked by Chen Liu.

Garrisoned by Chen are the generals Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan, and the strategists are Xi Zhicai and Xun You, just from the lineup, they have already completely exploded Li Ru and Huaxiong.

In terms of strategists, the two sides may be evenly matched.

But from the perspective of military generals, Hua Xiong alone is indeed not enough for the two Xiahou brothers to fight, but if they fight alone, they can still fight a dozen, and no one can kill anyone at once, unless they are really given enough time to fight to the death.

Li Chuan received news from Li Ru that Li Ru and Hua Xiong, the two old partners of Xiliang, were blocked by Chen Liu.

These two must also be senior mages, but they have always had generals in front, so they didn't have a chance to perform.

There is also the battle on the frontal battlefield, and mages generally do not go into battle, except for some mages with special spells.

How to say it! The mage is very brittle, has no ability to resist hits, and is similar to an ordinary person, to put it bluntly, it is a crispy skin, and ordinary soldiers can also kill the mage with one sword.

Mages can only play some role when defending or besieging cities, and other times they are just strategists and give advice.

In today's world, the so-called mages are pretty much like this.

Li Chuan found Pei Yuanshao, who was practicing martial arts in the barracks, handed him the letter, and then said: "Yuanshao, I want to go to Chenliu, the battle ahead is urgent, I will see if I can help." ”

In fact, Li Chuan just wanted to go to the front line to devour the vitality of the corpses, and it would be better if he could help.

After Pei Yuanshao read the letter, he asked, "Military Division, what are the arrangements for Changheng here?" ”

"Hmm. Let me think! Li Chuan fell into deep thought, saying that he really hadn't thought about how to arrange it, he was only thinking about how to break the city, but now that the city is broken, he hasn't had time to think about the next arrangement.

"So be it! You first gather Changheng's money and food, keep enough for three months, and transport all the rest back to Taishan County! You escort it yourself! Don't let some bandits rob you! ”

After Li Chuan thought about it for a while, he arranged it like this, he felt that the war launched against Cao Cao would not be able to tell the winner in a short period of time, and it might still be a war with a long war.

What if we lose in the end? So now that you've captured the city, let's get the supplies back first!

Even if he is really defeated, the money, grain and grass will also be obtained, so that Taishan will not lose too much this time.

The blood loss should be Cao Cao, as long as he is beaten down every time, the money and grain and grass in it are basically gone, unless Cao Cao's subordinates can defend it, otherwise, no matter how he fights, the most loss is he Cao Cao.

"Okay! Then if I get this thing done, can I go to Chenliu? Pei Yuanshao looked at Li Chuan expectantly.

"Whatever you want, if you want to come, let your subordinates be stationed in Changheng County when the time comes, and then come to Chen Liu to find me." Li Chuan smiled and easily agreed to Pei Yuanshao's request.

"Thank you, Strategist." Pei Yuanshao said sincerely.

"It doesn't matter." Li Chuan waved his hand.

Pei Yuanshao is to go to the front line to fight, and then he can make military merits, because someone like him who came to take refuge relatively late, has no thighs to hug, and has not really entered Liu Bei's eyes, so he has to show himself well.

At least on the battlefield, he Pei Yuanshao is still valuable, and Li Chuan also saw through Pei Yuanshao's plan, so he agreed to him.

Otherwise, as a rule, if a city is conquered, the Lord will not leave unless he receives a request for help.

Because before the start of the war, each line of soldiers and horses was assigned a combat mission, and after completion, they were stationed in the same place to see how the situation was in other places.

There is no reason to say that after fighting a city, you will directly change the city to fight, and it doesn't matter if you want the city you fought before.

Li Chuan didn't do much to clean up, and simply brought some dry food and water, as well as a team of 100 cavalry.

They set out on the road early the next morning and rushed to Chenliu, but the speed was not slow.

On Chen Liu's side, Li Ru and Hua Xiong actually did not launch a frontal attack.

Because they only brought 30,000 people, there were 30,000 people in Chen Liucheng.

Soldiers on both sides will fight in formation, so there is no such thing as an easy way to capture a city with a general.

Of course, Li Ru would not be stupid enough to attack the city with 30,000 soldiers, which would be tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

If you use human lives alone, there are no more than 100,000 people, and it is estimated that you will not be able to defeat this old remnant.

However, Li Ru's task was to besiege but not attack, and at the same time, he was also wondering what the situation was with the eight defense towers outside Chenliu County.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Li Ru looked at the tall and mighty Hua Xiong in front of him, and said with a light smile: "Zijian, it's time for you to go out and call the battle." ”

Hua Xiong tugged at the corners of his mouth, then picked up the Iron Moon Knife, clenched his fists and said, "Strategist, I'll try my best to kill under the defense tower!" If that one-eyed dragon fights me, I can't help it. ”

"Go, go, go! What nonsense? Li Ru waved his hand and scolded with a smile, "Isn't this still me for you?" ”

Hua Xiong thought to himself, so he was full of enthusiasm in an instant, can the other party still beat him to death? It's absolutely impossible!

Hua Xiong thought about it and left the camp, got on a horse and rushed out of the gate.

Li Ru walked out calmly, asked his men to gather the soldiers, and then led the troops to five miles outside the city and set up a battle.

And Hua Xiong had already come to two hundred meters outside the city, and he was full of energy, and shouted at the city: "Xiahou Yuan, come out and be beaten." ”

Hua Xiong did not say that he would be killed, but that he would be beaten, because he had already fought several times with Xiahou Yuan, and in all fairness, he was not absolutely sure that he would kill Xiahou Yuan.

A small soldier had already informed Xiahou Yuan at the city gate, and when this guy heard that Hua Xiong was coming to challenge again, he was instantly happy, did this give him face? Challenging him so often?

"Miaocai, let me teach him a profound lesson! It's not a problem to be noisy like flies all day long, and to bother us all the time. Xiahoudun, who was listening to the soldier's prayer next to him, suddenly spoke up.

"Big brother, don't! Let me do it! It's not easy to meet such an opponent of equal strength, so why don't I have to use him to practice my hands and prove my martial arts. Xiahou Yuan hurriedly spoke, for fear that Xiahou Yuan would really fight.

"Okay!" Xiahou moved the silver hair covering the black blindfold, he still looked as handsome as ever, but he spoke with a calm that did not match his appearance, "Miaocai, then you can go!" Remember, you can only win, not lose. ”

"Understood!" The expression on Xiahou Yuan's face suddenly became serious, and he said in a deep voice.
