Chapter 771: Xiahou pretended to be sick

Sun Gan came to the main hall wearing a robe, and after seeing Liu Bei, he didn't have time to breathe, and said: "The subordinates went to Xu Du this time and came back, bringing a good news to the lord, two bad news!" ”

"Huh?" Liu Bei looked at Sun Qian inexplicably, and said without thinking, "Let's talk about the good news first!" ”

Sun Gan blurted out: "Duke Cao sent the general Xiahoudun to come to assist the lord in defending the city, and now he has reached the outside of the city, and our army in the city is a horn!" ”

Mi Zhu next to him stretched his brows, showed a hint of joy on his face, and turned to Liu Bei and said: "Xiahoudun is Cao Cao's trusted general, and having him come shows that Cao Cao attaches great importance to the lord, but I don't know how many people Xiahoudun brought here!" ”

"This is one of the two bad news that the subordinates want to tell the lord!" Sun Qian said quietly, "Xiahoudun only brought three thousand men and horses, and besides, there is no adjutant general!" ”

"Something to be expected! Presumably, these 3,000 men and horses are also old and weak soldiers, right? Otherwise, how could it take so long to arrive! Liu Bei seemed to have expected this, and then asked Sun Qian, "What is the second bad news that Gongyou said?" ”

Sun Gan hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Princess Wannian led 50,000 horses and came from Yangzhou to Xuzhou in three ways, with the goal of aiding Lu Bu!" ”

Although he was mentally prepared enough, Liu Bei was still surprised after hearing the news.

After Liu Bei listened to Sun Qian's words, his brows furrowed again: "Does even the princess regard me as an enemy?" In this way, God is really going to kill me! ”

Mi Zhu understood what Liu Bei was worried about, and stepped forward and said: "Lord, until the last moment, we must not be defeated!" ”

Liu Bei nodded: "This is extremely true, it is better to ask for others than for yourself, now you can only hope that Yun Chang and Yide will return as soon as possible!" ”

Mi Zhu asked Sun Qian: "Can you tell me what is going on with Cao Cao?" ”

Sun Qian said in a deep voice: "I don't know the specifics, it seems that Cao Cao found out that there are fine works in his camp, and judging from Xu Du's rumors, there are not just one or two of them, but there are many of them, not only from unknown backgrounds, but from the world's most famous people!" He was afraid that once he led his army to attack Lu Bu, he would repeat the mistake that Yanzhou had lost a few years ago, so although he nominally supported the lord, in fact, before purging these details, I don't think he would take any action, even if Xiahoudun, the three thousand old and weak soldiers, don't have to expect to play a big role! The lord is right, it is better to ask for others than for yourself! ”

Liu Bei smiled bitterly and instructed Sun Qian: "Even so, we should not know all this, Gongyou, you go to Xiahoudun's military camp again, and ask him to send troops to attack Zhang Liao Gaoshun's people, and I will lead the army out of the city to plunder for him!" ”

"No!"

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were riding war horses around Xiaopei City to check the city wall fortifications, a few days ago the storm really caught them off guard, but after all, the two of them are people who have been in battle for a long time, and soon retreated to find a high place to camp, and reduced the loss to a minimum.

"Wen Yuan, what does this Cao Cao think, is he already arrogant enough to think that three thousand weak soldiers can defeat our battle-hardened camp and turrush cavalry?" Gao Shun looked at the gloomy sky in the distance, looked at Zhang Liao's back and smiled.

"Obviously, Cao Cao didn't want to save Liu Bei, and sending Xiahoudun here was just pretending!" Zhang Liao held the horsewhip in his hand, whipped the mount under him from time to time, and turned to look at Gao Shun, "In other words, he didn't think about helping Liu Bei keep Xiaopei at all!" ”

"It's really pitiful to think about Liu Bei!" Gao Shun hadn't had a good rest for a few days, and couldn't help but yawn a long time, "It's a pity, his two 10,000-strong enemies, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, are not there, originally I was trying my best to compete with them!" But I didn't think they were here at all, so I didn't even have the heart to fight! ”

"Haha, don't have this thought, not to mention Liu Bei, this Xiahoudun alone can't be underestimated, have you forgotten? This guy turned Liu Biao's tens of thousands of troops upside down with only a few hundred people, if he hadn't stumbled into it by mistake, Cao Cao would have been killed by Zhang Xiu a long time ago, and we are still thinking about how to defeat Xiaopei with a headache here? Zhang Liao sneered, and there always seemed to be a cold aura on his face, which was like dead ash.

The herald around him came to report: "Two generals, one person went out of Xiaopei City just now, it was Liu Bei's guest Sun Qian, and Pegasus went to the Xiahoudun camp in the northwest direction!" ”

"Got it!" Zhang Liao waved his hand to let the herald step back, lowered his head and thought for a while, and then asked Gao Shun, who was in silence, "Don't you want to do something?" ”

"Those who know me, Wen Yuanye!" Gao Shun smiled slightly, reined in the horse's head, and said mysteriously, "Sun Qian's departure from the city this time must be to invite Xiahoudun to lead the army to attack us, and Liu Bei will also inevitably lead the army out of the city to meet the battle, it is better for our troops to divide into two ways, I will lead an army to test Xiahoudun's hypocrisy, and the camp will be vacated to release the news to let them be tricked, and you will lead the army to try to surprise Xiaopei!" ”

Zhang Liao smiled and nodded, and rode away.

At this time, Xiahoudun was in the camp, commanding the soldiers to step up the fortifications, due to the urgency, many soldiers were tired, they collapsed on the ground and kept complaining: "General Xiahou, how can the enemy come in such bad weather?" We've been running for a long time, and we're already so tired that we can't even rest, isn't it too much of a fuss? ”

Xiahoudun squatted down, looked around at these soldiers and said with a smile: "What do you know, if the enemy wants to fight us, but we can guess, is it still called a battle?" It is precisely because you can't think of it that you will lose, what is war? You may not do these works, but who can guarantee that you will win all battles? ”

The soldiers looked ashamed one by one: "General Xiahou, we were wrong!" ”

Han Hao walked over with a water bag, handed it to Xiahoudun, and said with a smile: "What is the general doing here?" They are all recruits, and it's normal that they don't know the rules! ”

Xiahoudun took the water bag and drank a few sips and returned it to Han Hao, frowning and sighing: "Yuan Hei, I don't know what Meng De thinks, he doesn't know the importance of Xiao Pei, but he gave me this newly recruited soldiers and horses, not to mention the delay of time, there are only three thousand, how to fight against the elite trapped camp and turquoise cavalry under Lu Bu's camp?" ”

Han Hao didn't think so, he raised his head and drank the water in the water bag, and said, "What kind of martial and brave person is the general, how can he be stumped by just Zhang Liaogao's juniors?" Didn't the lord make it clear when he came? Defend for the top, fight for the bottom, and peace for the middle, no matter how many people there are, how can they not take care of Liu Bei's harassment in the city? Tanma reported that Lu Bu's men and horses were only 5,000 this time, and it was not very ridiculous that such a small team still wanted to fight one against two? ”

"Having said that, why do I still feel faintly uneasy?" Xiahoudun stood up, looking at the dim sun in the clouds, and his mood became a little fluctuating.

He looked into the distance, and just wanted to come by himself, and after getting closer, he looked at Sun Qian, who turned out to be Liu Bei's guest, and Xiahoudun said to Han Hao: "This guy is here again, it must be Liu Bei who came to invite me to fight!" ”

Han Hao looked at Xiahoudun and said, "What are the general's plans?" ”

"When I first came here, I didn't have a firm footing, and I couldn't play for the time being! But if you say this, Liu Bei will definitely laugh at me! Xiahoudun looked around at the antler formation around the barracks that had not yet taken shape, and explained to Han Hao, "Tell this guy that I am bedridden with a wind and cold, and I will not be able to get better without ten days and a half months!" ”

Saying that, Xiahoudun went to the camp, leaving only Han Hao, who was stunned, with a wry smile and looked at Sun Qian, who was waiting to be seen outside the camp gate, and said with infinite emotion: "Is this really possible?" ”

"What? General Xiahoudun was hit by a cold! Is it serious, when did this happen? Wasn't it okay when I left? After listening to Han Hao's words, Sun Gan's face was full of disappointment, and what he wanted to say was choked in his throat.

Han Hao said in embarrassment: "The general originally wanted to send troops to attack the enemy army immediately, but for some reason, he vomited and discharged, had a headache and brain fever, and the military doctors in the entire military camp had seen it all and there was no way, we were all worried, how could we get this if the enemy army learned the news and attacked, I hope that Lord Liu Bei will support it for a few days first, and when the general is well, he will definitely go to support!" ”

Sun Gan, a dumb man, was really uncomfortable, but he had to greet him with a smile: "Since this is the case, there is no way, I just hope that General Xiahou will recover soon, then I will go back to the lord and ask him to hold on for a few more days!" ”

"There's Mr. Law!" Han Hao didn't mean to let Sun Qian enter the big tent, so he directly sent him out of the gate.

Sun Gan got on the horse, looked at the strict arrangement method in Xiahoudun's camp, and exclaimed: "General Xiahou is really not simple, he is sick, and his subordinates can arrange the military camp so well, it seems that Xiaopei is expected to not lose!" ”

"Hehe, hehe!" Listening to Sun Gan's thorny taunt, Han Hao felt very uncomfortable.

When he came to the big tent, he saw that Xiahoudun had already taken off his armor, only wearing a plain clothes, and his head was wrapped in a scarf and was lying in the tent and moaning, but he only saw Han Hao entering the tent alone, and he looked outside and wondered: "What, didn't Sun Qian follow?" ”

"No, it's gone!" Han Hao replied.

Xiahoudun ripped off the scarf: "He didn't suspect anything?" ”

"What can you suspect? Do you want to run directly into the big tent and point at the general and say don't pretend to be sick? Han Hao looked at Xiahoudun speechlessly and complained, "I swear this is the first time in my life to lie, and it is also the last time, this feeling is really uncomfortable!"
