"Lord, why don't you just go and meet Liu Bei's army? He's almost in Xiapi County. Chen Gong received the news and hurried over.

Lu Bu thought for a while and said, "Diao Chan's father was arrested, if I don't go in person, how can I rest assured?" Besides, even if Liu Bei arrives in Xiapi County, he will go directly to Xiaopei. I'll wait for him in Xiaopeicheng, so I can see him sooner. ”

"Mr. Gongtai, Xuzhou's political affairs are complicated, this time to negotiate with Liu Bei, you don't have to go, stay in the Assassin's Mansion to govern, I hope to appoint the officials of various counties and counties soon, so that Xuzhou can restore normal order."

"Yes."

Xiao He's appearance made Lu Bu unexpected. I really didn't expect that this historical power would take the initiative to crash into the enemy's knife edge, if it weren't for Zhang Fei in his hand, Lu Bu would really be worried that Xiao He would be in danger.

Now, it's a big deal to take out one more hostage in exchange for Xiao He. Anyway, when he captured Xiapi City, he captured a large number of Liu Bei's people.

Early the next morning, Lu Bu finished arranging the affairs of the counties in Xuzhou, and took his generals Zang Ba, Hou Cheng, and 5,000 elite soldiers to Xiaopei.

Before leaving, he specially instructed Chen Gong not to care about the affairs of the army, especially not to expose Fan Lihua's identity, let her join the Gao Shun army, slowly hone and grow, and wait for him to come back from Xiaopeicheng, and then deal with it.

Chen Gong had long been accustomed to Lu Bu's domineering, and he didn't bother to ask, so he readily agreed.

Two days later, Lu Bu led his army to Xiaopeicheng.

The gates were closed and the defenses were fierce.

An army of 5,000 stood outside the city, but they could only look at it and sigh.

"Lord, Liu Bei's army is really coming in this direction." Zang Ba came to report.

"How far is it?"

"Tomorrow at noon, we can reach Xiaopei City."

"Okay, let's come back tomorrow." After turning around the city, Lu Bu led the army back twenty miles, found a spacious place, and set up camp.

At this time, Liu Bei's army of 50,000 had already entered Xiapi County.

As Lu Bu expected, after he arrived in Xiapi County, he didn't stop at any time, and approached Xiaopei City as fast as he could.

Liu Bei knew very well in his heart that the current Xuzhou was no longer his, and all counties and counties were full of Lu Bu's people, and only this strange army that was buried at the beginning still controlled a city.

Therefore, it was of no use for him to go to Xiapi City. Only to Xiaopei is the safest.

"Although Lü Bu captured Xuzhou, his strength was not good, and it was difficult to compete with our army. The last general suggested that as long as he could recapture Xiapi, Lu Bu would be terrified, and the rest of the counties would also fall to the wind. On the official road, Liu Bei's army marched, and Zhao Yun suggested to Liu Bei.

Unexpectedly, Liu Bei sighed vigorously...

"Why is the lord sighing?"

Liu Bei said: "Zilong has forgotten that my third brother is still in Xiapi City, if he forcibly captures Xiapi, won't it hurt him?" ”

When Guan Yu heard this, he was very moved.

In terms of the current comparison of the strength of the two armies, Liu Bei is fully capable of forcibly recapturing Xiapi City, and Xuzhou also came back at that time, but Liu Bei would rather give up Xuzhou than save Zhang Fei's life, which shows that brotherhood is more important than the whole Xuzhou.

Liu Bei attaches so much importance to love and righteousness, he can stick a knife in his brother's ribs, how can Guan Yu not be moved.

"The Lord is righteous and righteous, and the last will be ashamed."

Zhao Yun seemed to understand, with a look of guilt on his face. He only cared about seizing Xuzhou just now, but he forgot about Zhang Fei completely, maybe this is the difference between being a general and a monarch.

As the sun sets, burning clouds cover the sky, making the sky reddish and dark, and the whole world is warm.

When night came, a bright moonlight shone on the earth, turning night into day.

Such weather is the most suitable for marching.

Liu Bei was in a hurry to rush to Xiaopeicheng, and after dinner, he ordered the whole army to speed up, and it took only one night to reach the destination, and then stationed in Xiaopeicheng.

Lu Bu didn't find out until the next morning, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

"Fortunately, Liu Bei didn't attack the camp at night, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable." This is also a wake-up call for him. As modern people, never underestimate the IQ of the ancients, many times, they are better suited to war than modern people.

"It's okay, it's okay..."

Thinking of Zhang Fei, Sun Qian, Chen Deng, etc., who were all imprisoned in Xiapi City, Lu Bu relaxed a little, that was his hole card, with this hole card, even if Liu Bei wanted to play tricks, he was powerless.

"This incident should be regarded as a warning from God, and such a thing must not happen again in the future." Lu Bu thought so.

Two hours later, Lü Bu led his army to Xiaopeicheng.

Far away, I saw Liu Bei with Guan Yu and Zhao Yun out of the city to greet them, and held up a parasol outside the city, under which two desks were placed, and the drinks were ready.

Suddenly, Zhao Yun came on his horse and shouted, "Please General Lu step forward and answer." ”

Lu Bu chuckled, carried Fang Tian's halberd, and drove the red rabbit horse out of the military formation. Came to the side of the sun umbrella, hung Fang Tian's halberd on the saddle, walked under the sun umbrella, and met Liu Bei.

"General Lu is worthy of being the first person in the world, and his courage is unmatched, and he is very admired." Liu Bei stood up and arched his hand with a smile.

Lu Bu ignored him, poked his head out, looked behind Liu Bei, and shouted: "Over there, put away all the broken copper and iron in your hands, General Ben is dizzy when he looks at it." ”

Zhao Yun pressed his hand, and all the soldiers withdrew their bows and arrows.

Lu Bu found a place to sit down, and said with a smile: "Don't misunderstand Liu Yuanjun, I'm here for your good." I, Lu Bu, fought on the battlefield halfway, what kind of formation I haven't seen, just this thousand archers, what can I do? I'm worried, I'm afraid that your soldiers will go off and shoot you to death, then you will be too wronged. ”

Guan Yu and Zhao Yun rolled their eyes.

The muscles on Liu Bei's face twitched unconsciously. Coming back to his senses, Liu Bei smiled and said, "Yes." Thank you for your kindness. ”

"Xuande, let's open the skylight and say something. Cao Cao sent you to conquer Yuan Shu, obviously to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, and wanted to take advantage of the emptiness of Xuzhou's troops to seize Xuzhou, I was afraid that Cao Cao would attack, so I had to take over Xuzhou for you, if you want, you can take it at any time. ”

"The general is thinking a lot, and he just wants to get a garrison here, and he refuses Cao Cao with the general, and he has no intention of seizing the six counties of Xuzhou."

"Really?"

Liu Bei said very sincerely: "Seriously! ”

Lu Budao: "Okay, then I'll say the ugly things in front, in the future, the six counties of Xuzhou will be governed by me, and you can't interfere again, otherwise don't blame me for not being emotional." Your 50,000 troops are stationed in Xuzhou to resist Cao Cao, so you can't stay in Xiaopei, I have already chosen the best garrison place for you, in the border of Xuyan, in Zhixian, do you think it is feasible? ”
