The sky is clear, a fast horse came from the south, galloping on the official road, with a flag on his back, so that the merchants and foot sellers along the way can avoid it far away, and when the galloping war horse runs away, they gather again and whisper.

"Did you just see it, it seems to be a ...... to convey military information?"

"...... from the direction of Daze Township"

"I'm in trouble, should we go to Xiapi?"

While the words were talking, on the other side, the military detective horse galloped into the city quickly, the horse's hooves quickly trampled through the street, and the crowd was frightened to avoid both sides of the road, and at the far end of the street, a team of soldiers and horses was coming this way, and the two sides collided, and the information also fell into the hands of the young man on horseback and halberd.

The other party glanced at it, his pupils contracted suddenly, and he put the silk silk away and put it into the cuffs: "Go find General Hao." ”

Hao Meng was restless all night, and after inspecting the military camp the next morning, he temporarily stopped on the city wall.

In the prison yesterday, the captive's words were still weighing on my heart. There are only seven generals under the command of Marquis Wen, and only one strategist, which is not bad in the eyes of the little princes, but in the world, Liu Yan of Xishu, Liu Biao of Jingzhou, Yuan Shao of Jizhou, Yuan Shu of Huainan and even the two of the white wolf Gongsun Zhi and Cao Cao who are fighting, even if they become the assassins of Xuzhou, their strength is not inferior after all.

The only thing that made him feel fortunate was that Wenhou's martial arts were unparalleled in the world, which was true, even if Gongsun and Cao joined forces to attack, it would be difficult to stabilize Wenhou in the war, which was a real affirmation.

The bright sun sprinkled on the city from the clouds, the banner hunting in the wind, caressing the face of the figure staring into the distance, and in the midst of the thoughts flying, there were footsteps walking up to the city to him, and then, turning to look over, laughed.

"Zhongda can't get used to staying in the mansion again?"

"General Hao!"

The halberd leaned against the battlement, and the young man bowed his hand politely: "What is the general looking at when he stands on the head of the city?" ”

Hao Meng touched his beard, laughed, pointed to the direction of the west, and put it down behind him, "I'm looking to see when Wen Hou will be able to break Gongsun Zhi and Cao Mengde, and raise our prestige, Zhong Dajiu is here, and I probably know how embarrassed we were at the beginning, and we have had enough days under the fence...... I want to settle down......"

Sima Yi took the halberd and stood not far away, with a slight smile on his face, revealing a rare precociousness: "Gongsun Zhi and Cao Cao are also people who are familiar with military affairs, and the strategists under their command probably also expected such a stalemate in the confrontation...... But General Hao, who is very confident that Wen Hou can defeat these two people? ”

"Doesn't Zhongda want your master to win?"

The figure in front of him turned around and asked like this, Sima Yi kept smiling, his eyes seemed to see through the imperceptible thought in the other party's heart, and shook his head: "Yi naturally hopes that Master can win, but it's a pity that it's difficult......"

Just before he came, the battle report that entered quickly from the south gate came to Xiapi, and before it reached Hao Meng's hands, it had been picked up by Sima Yi, who happened to be passing by. ”

On the city walls, the April wind whined and blew, bringing an ominous breath.

"How can this be ......" staring at the simple handwriting on Su Silk, Hao Meng muttered in a hoarse voice, closed the information, and stood there looking at the young man opposite in a daze for a long time, and finally took a step back, pressing his fist on the wall and twisting and rubbing. Gongsun Zhi broke through 40,000 Yuan troops in one night, broke through the Zhangliao defense line in Daze Township, and came straight to Xiapi. This is absurd, but it is also a solid feeling of the tremendous pressure brought by the white wolf.

"I'm in trouble now......"

He muttered, remembering the words of the man in the prison: General Hao, think about how to cherish your life...... Like a nightmare, it hung over the heart.

On April 11, at the border of Xiapi, tens of thousands of horse troops came quickly.

"Drive away all the vendors along the way, and no goods shall enter the city—"

"Block the four gates of Xiapi, don't let anyone out, if the army of Xiapi City goes to battle, leave all of them in the wilderness, or fight back!"

Under the banner of the running wolf, Gongsun Zhi continued to give the combat tasks and objectives to the cavalry teams of different genera on horseback. The rumbling and huge vibration could not be covered after stepping into the Xiapi realm, and they just wanted to let the news of the siege of Xiapi be conveyed, and then ......

Committed to killing the tiger.

***********************

Peiguo.

Under the foothills of the military camp in the direction of Xuzhou, speckled firelight spread and swam in the camp, and the archers on the sentry yawned and continued to look at the darkness outside with wide eyes, and everything was as usual for half a month.

"Husband...... Husband...... The husband is a great hero who dominates the world, how can he be downcast after he goes down...... Yin Cao is wet and cold, and the concubine first goes to make the bed and wash the eaves for her husband, and sweep the couch to greet her......"

"Daddy...... Daddy......"

The childish voice sounded in the darkness, and in the sight, two figures, one large and one small, turned around in the distance and disappeared into the endless black.

……

"Ahh

In the tent, Lu Bu, who was covered with sweat, woke up from his sleep, sat up, the yellow soybean fire swayed on the lamppost, the nightmare scream alarmed the footsteps outside, the tent curtain was opened, and the guards leaned into half of his body.

"My lord."

"Go and call the military advisor."

After giving the order, Lu Bu kept his eyes open for a long time, stared at the lights for a while, and felt a little more solid in his heart under his feet, and after pouring a bowl of water on the long case, outside the tent, a figure walked in.

"What's the matter with the lords in the middle of the night?" Chen Gong gave a salute, and then saw the look on the other side, frowned, and said: "The confrontation between the two armies can see Cao Mengde's clues?" ”

Shaking his head, Lu Bu wiped the beads of sweat from his face, and said in a low voice: "I had a dream that Xiapi City was broken...... Worry is a bad sign. ”

"How can the thick walls of Xiapi City be broken? Moreover, Zang Ba and Zhang Liaoer will guard the left and right gates of Xuzhou, and it is good news that there is no news at this time, and the lord should not worry too much about the rear, but focus on Cao Mengde on the opposite side. ”

"Hmm."

Lu Bu nodded slightly, then stood up, and looked at the Fang Tian painting halberd placed horizontally on the weapon rack, "Gongtai is right, I miss my wife and daughter too much at this time, but it is not the eldest husband's ......"

He rubbed the halberd and saw the face reflected in the sharp halberd. This man, who is known as a flying general, is far more burly and straight than ordinary people, and his thick eyebrows and tiger eyes are extraordinarily bright and deep.

"It's been too long...... Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses are really slow enough, Gongtai...... What do you mean by saying that Cao Cao and Gongsun Zhi will be in such a stalemate without a fight, should I, Lu Bu, really need to be so jealous of them? ”

He whispered, and Chen Gong over there frowned: "Beware of fraud." ”

Beginning on 25 March, the two armies faced each other for nearly half a month, sometimes clashing, most of them were petty fights, after a while, Cao's troops quickly withdrew, closed the camp gate to avoid the battle, had to make people suspicious, many sides inquired, and there was no sign of soldiers and horses crossing the border in the rest of the directions.

"Fraud?"

stroked the halberd Feng's hand, pinched Fang Tian's halberd in his hand, turned around and slammed it on the ground, "Whether there is fraud or not, Cao Mengde and Gongsun Zhi don't want to fight, they just ...... tonight."

"Let's fight ourselves!"

His words seemed to contain countless bones.
