Liu Bei's army arrived in Xiapi City two days later and was stationed five miles outside the city.

Cao Ren led 50,000 troops, surrounded Zhang Liao's troops stationed in Pengcheng, and launched a fierce attack.

Cao Cao personally led an army of 100,000 and drove to Xiapi, preparing to rush to the aid of Liu Bei, but his marching speed was very slow, and so far, he has not entered the scope of Xiapi County.

Lu Bu took Lu Zhong and Xiao He to climb the city tower and look at Liu Beijun's camp.

Xiao He was still worried: "Liu Bei's counterattack really caught us off guard. If we add Cao Cao's soldiers and horses, we have no chance of winning. ”

"Father-in-law doesn't need to worry, I have my own clever plan to retreat from the enemy." Lu Bu was full of confidence.

"If the lord is still thinking about breaking the embankment and releasing water, I advise the lord to dispel this idea as soon as possible. Because I will never allow you to do that. Xiao He was resolute.

"Lord Xiao, rest assured, the lord has no intention of breaking the embankment." Lu Zhong said with a smile.

"Oh? How do you know? ”

Lu Zhong glanced at Lu Bu, and Lu Bu nodded at him. Lu Zhong said: "Lord Xiao doesn't know anything. The lord has ordered me to gather enough fire oil, and when all the huge trees in the city are pushed down, I will ignite it with fire oil, even if there are many enemy troops, I will not be able to risk death to attack the city. ”

"Retreat the enemy with fire oil? Then the amount of this fire oil is probably very staggering, right? ”

Lu Bu glanced at Xiao He and couldn't help but say with contempt: "Father-in-law, when has this been, still picking like this?" Don't you even have a little oil to bear? ”

"Eh... I'll just ask. ”

"In fact, Liu Bei and Cao Cao are not as terrible as they imagined. In their hearts, they also have their own little calculations. Just like now, although Liu Bei arrived in Xiapi City, he was not in a hurry to attack the city, and had to wait for Cao Cao to come before sending troops. And Cao Cao was slow to act, obviously trying to consume Liu Beijun's strength. In this way, I don't think I will be able to attack the city for half a month. That buys us a lot of time. ”

Lu Bu said the current situation in one sentence, which made Xiao He feel a lot more relieved.

"That's what makes me feel much more relieved."

"Let's go, let's go back to our respective homes, find our own mothers, and wait for the enemy to come, there's no need to wait here all the time." After a while, Lu Bu shrugged his shoulders and returned to the city without worry.

Xiao He and Lu Zhong also left after him.

As Lu Bu expected, although Liu Bei arrived outside the city, he had no intention of attacking the city. He took Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Guan Yu to the outside of the city every day to call for battle, which seemed to be fierce, but in fact it was delaying time.

Lu Bu ordered to close the city gate tightly and ignore Liu Bei at all.

And so, seven days passed!

On this day, Cao Cao's army finally arrived in Xiapi City and joined forces with Liu Bei.

"Xuande, since you arrived in Xiapi City early, why don't you attack the city?" In the military tent, Cao Cao was very unhappy and asked sharply.

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun next to him all showed displeasure on their faces.

Liu Bei arched his hand and said: "The prime minister doesn't know, Lu Bu is brave, and he can't be defeated by my soldiers, and only after the prime minister's army arrives, can he attack the city." ”

"Hmph, it's obviously a pretext!" Cheng Yu snorted coldly.

Zhang Fei had a hot temper and stood up and shouted: "You are procrastinating, and you haven't been to Xiapi for half a month, and you want us to die?" Hum! What kind of person is my eldest brother, how can he fall for your ghosts?! ”

"The third brother is talking nonsense!" Liu Bei stopped Zhang Fei and scolded angrily in his heart: "It's really a pig teammate." ”

Xun You sneered: "What else does Xuande have to say? ”

"You swore an oath and promised the prime minister that you were willing to be the vanguard of the expedition to Lu, and the soldiers under your command did not care about life and death, but now you are going back on your word and playing such a careful mind, don't you think that we are so easy to deceive?"

"Prime Minister, I have no such intention..." Liu Bei wanted to explain, but Cao Cao waved his hand and said, "I believe in Xuande, and I won't play such careful thinking." ”

"Xuande, tomorrow's army will attack the city, are you willing to be the vanguard?"

"This..."

Liu Bei complained in his heart, if he said he was unwilling, wouldn't he know that he would go back on his word. He gritted his teeth and replied, "Okay, I'm willing to take the lead in attacking the city!" ”

"That's very good."

Cao Cao said in his heart: "Sample, still want to fight with me?" You're still a little tender. ”

The next day, Cao Liu's army approached Picheng and set the formation away.

Lu Bu held Fang Tianhalberd and stood in the city tower, and behind him stood Lu Zhong and Xiao He.

"Three slaves, come out and die!" Zhang Fei stepped forward to call the formation.

Lu Brown laughed: "Zhuojun Butcher, you TM is already my subordinate defeated, and there is a B face to challenge?" Hurry up and go back, Lao Tzu doesn't know how to defeat your men. ”

"Hugh is talking nonsense! Last time, it was your luck that gave you the upper hand, and you came out to fight with your grandfather Zhang for 300 rounds! ”

It's a pity that if you anger Zhang Fei, you can't get anger points. Lu Bu was not interested: "Kill you and pollute my ears!" ”

Zhang Fei yelled and scolded for a while, but it didn't play any role.

He returned to the military formation and reported to Liu Bei: "Big brother, Lu Bu doesn't dare to fight me. ”

"Then let's attack the city directly."

Liu Bei looked at Guan Yu and ordered: "Second brother, order the siege of the city." ”

"No."

Guan Yu transferred 5,000 troops and launched an attack on Xia Picheng.

Originally, Liu Bei did not have siege equipment, but Cao Cao did, and under Liu Bei's plea, Cao Cao handed over all the siege equipment to Liu Bei.

Four siege towers, twenty trebuchets, pontoon bridges, flying bridges, and countless ladders, pushed by the soldiers, rushed towards Xiapi City, like a flood bursting the embankment, unstoppable.

Seeing this, Lu Bu asked Lu Zhong to prepare to defend the city.

"Listen, when the enemy is near, shoot with a bow and arrow, then throw a giant tree or a rolling stone, and if you can't stand it, pour down the boiling oil and set it on fire with a rocket. Do you understand everything? ”

"Got it!"

After giving the order, Lu Bu held a bow and arrow, ready to sneak attack the enemy generals.

When he was young, Liu Bei's army crossed the moat and set up a cloud ladder at the head of the city, and countless soldiers climbed up.

"Hurry, hurry... Hurry up! ”

"TM, don't grind... Burst! "By the moat, a lieutenant who was directing the soldiers to fight was shouting angrily at the soldiers around him.

Lu Bu opened his bow and released arrows, and shot him in the head at once!

Immediately afterwards, several more centurions took the place of the lieutenant in command, and they were all shot one after another.

"The lord is good at archery!" Lu Zhong's face was full of admiration.

Lu Bu smiled and said, "What is this, even if it is a little farther away, it can be shot." ”

"Shoot the arrows!"

Whoosh...

Arrows rained down the towers.

Lu Zhong led the soldiers to push the giant trees down the enemy's ladder one by one, and smashed the enemy soldiers who were climbing up.
