Chapter 336: Chen Liu's Defense
It didn't take long for the horse meat to be cooked, and the sergeants took off their helmets, cleaned them with water, and then put the horse meat of the helmet, along with the meat and soup, and brought it to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei looked at the cooked horse meat, there was a smell wafting over the fragrance, swallowed his saliva, and then said: "Let's give it to the sergeants first, there are many battles, but it is hard." ”
When those listless sergeants heard Liu Bei's words, they thanked them one after another: "Thank you for your understanding!" ”
Cao Cao on the mountain squinted at Liu Beijun's movements, only to see him slowly raise his hand and shout: "Rush!" ”
With an order, the shouts of killing began, and Cao Bing, under the leadership of Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Yu Ban and others, rushed down from the mountain.
Sergeant Liu Bei, who was about to prepare to eat, saw this scene and hurriedly dropped his hand to eat, and Liu Bei was also panicked.
"Where's the school knife hand? Join me to meet the enemy! Guan Yu shouted.
With Guan Yu's order, the school swordsmen stood beside Guan Yu one by one, ready to meet the enemy, while Liu Bei, under the protection of Zhang Chao, gathered the rest of the sergeants and retreated first.
Guan Yu fought and retreated, but fortunately, Cao Bing did not chase after him, which left time for Guan Yu to retreat.
"Lord, why don't you continue the pursuit?" Xiahou Yuan asked.
Xiahoudun attacked Chen Liucheng and was ambushed by Liu Bei and was seriously injured.
Cao Cao laughed and said: "It's been a day and a night, and our sergeants are tired and tired, and now Liu Bei is making a fire and making food here, and this meal is ready, so why not eat?" Look at this horse meat, this is a good war horse, chewy very ah, don't waste it, and here, have a full meal! ”
"But, lord, then Liu Bei ......" Xiahou Yuan still insisted on pursuing, but was interrupted by Cao Cao's outstretched hand.
Cao Cao smiled slightly and said: "Miaocai, don't worry, now Liu Bei is no longer a threat, take down Chen Liu, it is close at hand." ”
At this time, Cao Bing had already begun to disperse to eat, Liu Beijun's horse meat was really good, after eating the meat and drinking the soup, his whole body was warm, and his strength had recovered a lot.
Cao Cao also drank a little broth, and after a full meal, he ordered: "Wenhe, you order a group of soldiers and horses to go to the old village, get siege equipment, and join our army under Chen Liucheng, and take Chen Liucheng in one fell swoop!" ”
"Order!"
"The armies obey orders!" Cao Cao shouted.
Cao Cao's generals hurriedly stood up and waited for Cao Cao's order.
"Now that the sergeants have been fed, the time to break through Chen Liucheng must be taken in this battle, and I hope that all the soldiers will not be afraid of death, not afraid of death, and avenge the comrades who died of Liu Bei's treacherous schemes!" Cao Cao said loudly.
"Take Chen Liucheng!"
"Avenge your comrades!"
"Kill Liu Bei!"
"Kill Guan Yu!"
"Kill Chen Gong!"
All the soldiers shouted in unison, their morale was high, and they suffered a lot of losses in a few battles with Liu Bei, and they really hated to swallow Liu Bei alive at this moment.
It's just that these Cao soldiers don't want to think about it, they have eaten Liu Bei's treacherous schemes, didn't Liu Bei fall for Cao Cao's conspiracy?
But these are not important, the important thing is that now the moment of decisive battle has come, as long as Chen Liucheng is broken, then Liu Bei will have no place in Yanzhou.
On the other side, Liu Bei led the remnants of the army and rushed back to Chen Liucheng, Chen Gong was taken aback when he saw it, and hurriedly asked, "Lord, why is this?" ”
Liu Bei sighed and told Chen Gong about Cao Cao's ambush plan on all sides, and Chen Gong also sighed and said: "If I follow the lord, I will try my best to dissuade the lord from marching into the army!" ”
Guan Yu snorted coldly beside him and said, "Since that's the case, why don't you follow?" ”
Because the person who advised Liu Bei to continue to pursue Cao Cao was Guan Yu, he felt that Chen Gong was complaining about himself, so he was very resistant to what Chen Gong said.
"This ......" Chen Gong was stunned, he wanted to go, and he would also ride a horse, but that was usual, if it was a marching battle, he was a scribe, how could he keep up.
Chen Gong didn't realize that his words offended Guan Yu, and he just thought that Guan Yu had lost the battle, and he was unhappy.
Liu Bei patted Guan Yu's arm and said, "Okay, Yun Chang, don't say more, now Cao Cao's army is coming, let's discuss, how to resist the enemy, right?" Is there a good way to do it? ”
Liu Bei's words, although he still asked for Chen Gong's advice, his tone was not as close as before, and he seemed to be dissatisfied with it.
Chen Gong glanced at the remnants of the soldiers brought back by Liu Bei, sighed, and did not make a sound.
When Guan Yu saw it, he became even more angry, and said loudly: "Big brother, at this time, I naturally fight with them!" ”
"Yun Chang, don't be brave for a while, otherwise, you will just die in vain." Liu Bei said.
Chen Gong sighed again and said: "For today's plan, we can only do our best, we need to guard the city gate, and we must not relax." ”
"Please speak on the public platform." Liu Bei hurriedly said.
Chen Gong nodded and said, "The east gate is the weakest, and General Guan needs to guard it personally." ”
"Big brother, don't worry, Cao Cao wants to enter the city, unless he steps on my body!" Guan Yu said proudly.
Ignoring Guan Yu's arrogance, Chen Gong continued: "The west gate has a high wall and a wide moat, which looks the safest, so it is defended by Meng Zhuo, but it must not be taken lightly. ”
Zhang Miao nodded and said, "Got it." ”
"The north gate must be the gateway of Cao Cao's key attack, Meng Gao is brave and martial, and he can guard this gate!" Chen Gong continued to arrange.
Zhang Chao clenched his fists and didn't say anything, but his eyes were firm, and he didn't have to doubt it.
Finally, Chen Gong turned to Liu Bei and said, "Lord, in order to prevent Cao Cao from detouring to the south gate, I will guard the south gate with the lord." ”
Liu Bei nodded and agreed to Chen Gong's arrangement.
Originally, Chen Gong's plan was to let Liu Bei guard one door alone, and he and Zhang Miao guarded one door, after all, Zhang Miao was slightly deficient compared to the others.
However, now that Liu Bei has broken his arm, in case of an accident, Chen Gong still decided to go with Liu Bei.
As for Zhang Miao, there should be no problem with guarding the most solid West Gate.
Since the arrangement has been decided, several people no longer hesitated, and each led his troops and horses to the four city gates in the southeast, northwest and northwest, and waited for Cao's soldiers to come.
In fact, at this moment, there are not many soldiers and horses in Chen Liucheng, and above each city gate, there are hundreds of soldiers.
However, these sergeants all escaped from Cao Cao's encirclement and surprise attack, and their combat power is definitely elite.
In this way, eating and resting, all the soldiers, including Liu Bei, were on the gates of the city they guarded.
It wasn't until three days later that Zhang Chao sent messengers to deliver the news that Cao Cao's army had appeared.
Immediately afterwards, there was news from Guan Yu and Zhang Miao, and Cao Bing also appeared at the east and west gates.
The battle of Chen Liu's defense is about to start!
