Chapter 122: The First Battle of the New Field
Cao Cao ordered Cao Ren and Li Dian and the generals LΓΌ Kuang and LΓΌ Xiang to garrison Fancheng and look at Jingxiang. has been waiting for the arrival of Cao's army.
When the two Lu brothers first arrived in Cao Ying, they were eager to make meritorious contributions. Knowing that Liu Bei was stationed in Xinye, he had the intention of attacking, so the two looked for Cao Ren.
"Now Liu Bei is recruiting troops and buying horses, accumulating grass and storing grain, his ambition is not small, and he must get rid of it as soon as possible! After the two of us were demoted to prime minister, they did not have an inch of merit, and I would like to invite 5,000 elite soldiers to take Liu Bei's head as a tribute to the prime minister! Lu Kuang said.
Cao Ren listened to the words of the two and was overjoyed, "Okay, you two have this heart, I promised." β
Liu Bei's troops in Xinye are a small county town, and Cao Ren is not afraid of them, thinking that these two people are enough to capture.
The Lu brothers were ordered to lead 5,000 troops to Xinye.
When Li Dian learned about it, he asked Cao Ren, "The two of them attacked Liu Bei, was it you Xu?" β
Cao Renyan said, "Liu Bei, just had to escape for a while, and was monitored by us for a few years, and he escaped by Pan Feng's strategy, so what are you afraid of." Xinye is a small county, and there can be a few soldiers. The two of them are enough! β
Li Dian was worried, "It's okay, I just happened to know through them that Pan Feng was not here with Liu Bei." β
Tanma returned to Xinye, and Cao Jun came here.
Liu Bei convened everyone to discuss. "Now that the generals of the Cao army and Cao Renzhi are leading the troops to attack Xinye, what can the people do?"
When Xu Shu first arrived, he also had the heart of meritorious service, so he didn't wait for others to offer advice, and took the initiative to say, "The enemy soldiers are here, don't let them enter." It can make Guan Yu lead an army out from the left and come to the middle of the enemy's army. Zhang Fei led an army out from the right and came to the rear of the enemy. I will meet Zhao Yun on the way forward, and I will be able to break it! β
Liu Bei listened to it, "Just say from Yuan Zhi, the second brother, the third brother, and Zilong will listen to Yuan Zhi's order and lead 2,000 soldiers and horses out of the customs to greet each other." β
On the side, Shi Yue was happy, that's right, finally don't need Lao Tzu to go out. So, if I am not satisfied with my job, I still have to resign.
Guan and Zhang led the troops out first, and Xu Shu and Zhao Yun led the troops to meet the attack.
After walking for a few miles, seeing the dust in front of him, Xu Shu said, "Deploy the formation, and the enemy army is coming." β
When LΓΌ Kuang and LΓΌ Xiang saw the enemy, they immediately set up a formation to meet them and rode their horses forward.
Xu Shu said in the foreword, "Who are you?" Coming to offend me? β
"I am the general Lu Kuang, and I am here to get rid of the thief on the order of the prime minister." Lu Kuang shouted.
"There are no thieves here! Hurry back, or we'll wait for the soldiers to meet." Xu Shu replied.
"See you when you see it!" After that, Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang rode away, and Zhao Yun saw it and went to fight with a gun.
When the two of them saw the people who came to fight, they had never seen them, and they were not the fierce generals of Guan and Zhang, so they were not afraid of them. "You attack the left, I attack the right!" Lu Xiang shouted. The two rode their horses around Zhao Yun and besieged him. "Nameless general, suffer death!" Lu Kuang stabbed from the left.
Zhao Yun collided with Lu Kuang's spear with one shot, lifting away his attack, and Lu Xiang on the right attacked with a stabbing spear, Zhao Yun changed his hand and waved his gun away, slashing away, knocking out Lu Xiang's attack. Seeing this, Lu Kuang rode forward and stabbed over. Zhao Yunyu saw it, changed hands of the gun, the gun stick was behind, as soon as he mentioned the approach, the other hand grabbed it, received the opponent's move, and the two guns intersected.
Lu Kuang shouted, Zhao Yun swung the intersecting spear and rotated, the opponent's offensive was instantly out of strength, Lu Kuang was shocked, this person's move tactics were unprecedented, Zhao Yun broke away from the opponent's suppression, and a shot was stabbing Lu Kuang's chest, Lu Kuang couldn't defend it, and stabbed off the horse.
When Xu Shu saw Zhao Yun's victory, it was the time when the momentum was at its peak, and he shouted, "Rush with me!" "The leader rushed to kill, but Lu Xiang couldn't stop it and fled backwards." Withdraw first! β
Cao's army ran not far, Guan Yu led an army in the rear, Guan Yu's army rushed into the battle, and Lu Xiang broke most of his troops and fled from the other road. He had not traveled more than a few miles when he was stopped by an army.
"Zhang Yide is here!" Zhang Fei rushed to kill with a spear, and Lu Xiang saw that the comer was raging, but he still went up to fight hard.
Zhang Fei stabbed with a spear, Lu Xiang blocked it with a shot, Zhang Fei shouted, and the blocked spear still stabbed down, directly into the chest, and Lu Xiang fell off his horse and died.
Seeing this, Cao Bing began to scatter and flee in all directions, and Zhang Fei shouted, "Chase!" Don't let them escape! β
Guan Yu led the troops to come, and then Xu Shu was here, Xu Shu said, "These Cao soldiers don't let them be killed, just capture them, go back to induce and persuade them to surrender, now the lord is short of soldiers, just a battle, and some losses, just to supplement." β
Immediately, the three of them captured the remaining soldiers and brought them back to Xinye.
Liu Bei learned of the great victory, rewarded Xu Shu heavily, and rewarded the three armies.
The fleeing defeated army returned to Fancheng and saw Cao Ren.
reported that "the two Lu were both defeated and killed, and most of the soldiers were captured alive." β
Cao Ren was shocked, very angry in his heart, and lost the second general, and then came to Li Dian to discuss.
"The second general died lightly against the enemy, so I have to stand still now, report back to the prime minister first, and wait for the soldiers to come here to do the conquest, which is the best policy." Li Dian said.
Cao Ren is different, "My two generals are dead, can I not repay this revenge, Liu Bei will be a Xinye County, and I will bother the prime minister's army?" β
Li Dian said again, "The matter of Xu Du, the public also knows, General Pan Feng let Liu Bei go, and now he doesn't see this person, and he is afraid to vote." Pan Feng and Wu are not something we can win. β
Cao Ren said, "Liu Bei's army this time to fight, without Pan Feng, it is estimated that he has not yet surrendered, if he comes, we will not be able to win, so now is the best time, if Liu Bei is not captured today, it will be more difficult for him to do it in the future!" β
Li Dian also said, "If you don't see him today, it doesn't mean that he is not there, knowing yourself and knowing your opponent can not be defeated in a hundred battles." β
Cao Ren was furious: "Do you also have two hearts? I have not been allowed to fight! I'm going to capture Liu Bei! β
Li Dian was helpless, he couldn't understand people at all, "If the general goes, it's okay, I'll stay in Fancheng to prevent the enemy from attacking." β
Cao Ren was even more suspicious, "You have to go with me, if you don't go, you have two hearts!" β
Li Dian "......"
Li Dian had no choice but to order 25,000 troops and cross the river to Xinye together.
Shinno
Shi Yue had nothing to do at home, and suddenly remembered that Cao Ren would come, so he casually told Liu Bei, "My lord, now that Cao Ren has lost his second general, he will definitely come with a large army and want to set foot on my new field." β
Liu Bei asked, "Strategist, how should we fight?" β
Shi Yue was surprised, at this time, shouldn't you call everyone to discuss together? You don't play according to the routine. I had to think back to how I fought.
"When Cao Ren's army comes, Fancheng must be empty. We will take advantage of this attack and take this city! β
Liu Bei was overjoyed, if he could win a city, it would naturally be the best.
After a short time, sure enough, the Malay report was, "Cao Ren's army is coming here across the river!" β
When everyone learned about it, they immediately came to Liu Bei to discuss.
Xu Shu said, "My lord, now that Cao Ren's army has crossed the river, Fancheng must be empty." We will take advantage of this attack and take this city! β
Liu Bei laughed, Xu Shu was puzzled, everyone was puzzled, Liu Bei said, "Yuan Zhi is really talented, I am very happy." As you said, a few days ago, the military advisor informed me, and what you said is not bad. β
Xu Shu exclaimed and looked at Shi Yue, who was a little embarrassed.
I was wrong! Don't look at me, ask for face. Next time you come.
Xu Shu said, "The military advisor has insight into everything, and Yuan Zhi saw it today and was convinced." β
Liu Beiyan said: "Then I will convey what the military advisor said to me before." Listen, everybody......"
