In the silent tent, the light of the torches became cloudy and uncertain as the light of the fire danced, and from time to time a spark jumped out of the light of the torches and made a crackling sound. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Liu Bao rubbed his cheeks a little tiredly, making his brain clearer, and the confrontation for more than a month made him feel exhausted.

In several encounters with Lu Bu, it is naturally impossible to lose all the time, but on the whole, it is still more than one loser and one win less, and the number of troops is constantly being reduced, and the problems of people's livelihood are not only Lu Bu, but the herdsmen on his side also have to rely on grazing to make a living, and this battle has been fought for a long time.

A few victories could not bring too much excitement to Liu Bao, he knew that those so-called victories could not affect the reversal of the overall situation, and his mind kept recalling the bits and pieces of the confrontation with Lu Bu for so long, and the pressure that gradually overwhelmed him was increasing every day.

Exhaustion, panic accumulation in the heart, the longer the time drags on, the more these things will accumulate in the heart, but can not be vented, in front of his subordinates, no matter when, he must maintain a fearless and confident attitude, only in this way, can his subordinates believe that they can win, and only in the dead of night, when there is no one around, can he show this exhaustion without scruples.

Even if at the beginning, when Hu Chuquan passed on the position of Shan Yu to him, the entire Xiongnu was already facing a great crisis, he still had absolute confidence that he could turn things around, re-develop and strengthen the Xiongnu clan, re-become the overlord of the grassland, and even establish a Xiongnu dynasty that was more brilliant than the Xianbei established by Tanshi Huai back then, which was enough to compete with the Han people.

At the beginning of the matter, it was indeed as Huchuquan expected, and the tribes of the Hetao fell into civil strife step by step under his wrist, which provided good external conditions for the Xiongnu to re-become the overlord of the Hetao.

It's a pity that all this, with the arrival of Lu Bu, and within a month, he has successively subdued Tu Ge, Wolf Qiang, and Xian Lingqiang, so that the advantages that Liu Bao had created for the Xiongnu clan were suddenly gone.

Just like Cao Cao at this time, even if Lu Bu loses, he only loses the Hetao that does not belong to him, he still has Xiliang, he also has Yongzhou, there is a large population and a large area of land, and he, if he loses, he will have nothing, and the Xiongnu will also be submerged in the vast river of history and cease to exist, which is something that Liu Bao absolutely cannot accept as a Xiongnu Shanyu, so even if he is tired, he must continue to hold on.

He has already made a detailed plan for Lu Bu's current deployment, the main force to contain Lu Bu, and then send people to capture Linrong!

That is Lu Bu's foundation in the Hetao, and it is also the foundation of Tu Ge's people, with the strength that Lu Bu currently controls, there should be no way to strengthen Linrong, between Tu Ge and Xian Ling, he must give up one place, and the chain reaction is that no matter which side Lu Bu chooses to give up, it will chill the other Hu people under his subordinates, and at the same time break Lu Bu's momentum.

This is what the Han people call Yangmou, right?

Liu Bao leaned on the backrest, tiredly sorting out the strategies he had thought out these days in his mind, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as long as this battle is won, it will be much easier to deal with Lu Bu next.

Just as his eyelids closed tiredly, and he was about to fall asleep, the sound of gongs, drums and trumpets suddenly sounded outside, accompanied by a strong shout of killing.

Suddenly startled in his heart, Liu Bao sat up suddenly, and his first reaction was that Lu Bu stole the camp.

I didn't bother to put on my armor, so I rushed out of the camp with a scimitar, looking at the chaos around me, but the imaginary shouts of killing did not sound, and everywhere the Huns who were awakened in their sleep were holding weapons and looking around blankly.

"What's going on?" Pulling over a personal guard, Liu Bao frowned and said, just hearing the shouts of killing, but there was no trace of the enemy, which made Liu Bao very annoyed.

"I don't know." The guards also looked at Liu Bao blankly.

Soon, a general guarding the camp came over, and said a little angrily: "Shan Yu, those Han people are too despicable, they shouted and killed outside the camp for a long time, and when our people woke up, they were gone." ”

"This is the tired tactic of the Han people!" Liu Bao's face sank, and he quickly reacted, after more than a month, is Lu Bu finally going to make another move?

According to Liu Bao's understanding of Lu Bu, it can't be as simple as this once, and he said in a deep voice: "Strengthen your defense, this time it's fake, maybe next time it's true." ”

"Yes!" The military general agreed, said goodbye and left.

Liu Bao glanced at the dark night, after a short period of excitement, the feeling of exhaustion seemed to be much stronger, and shook his head, no matter what conspiracy he had, tomorrow would be the time to see the real chapter, this time, Lu Bu must be driven out of the loop!

"Bell Bell Bell ~"

Not long after he fell asleep, the shouting of killing woke Liu Bao up again, and he got up in a hurry, Liu Bao's eyes flashed with an unconcealable murderous intention, anyone who was woken up so continuously would not be in a good mood, and strode out of the camp, but the shouting and killing stopped abruptly.

"Next time, send two teams of 1,000 people out and kill all these rats!" Liu Bao snorted angrily.

"Whoa!" The Hun military general agreed, and said with a murderous face.

However, for a whole night, Lu Bu did not come to make trouble again, and the entire Xiongnu camp, including Liu Bao, did not sleep well all night.

Early the next morning, seeing Lu Bu in a vibrant formation five hundred steps away from the camp, and then looking at the soldiers who had not slept well all night on his side, Liu Bao chose to keep the door behind closed doors with a dark face, and the original plan could only be temporarily stranded, with the current state of the Hun warriors, it was really not suitable for war, so let Lu Bu be arrogant for another day.

However, the next night, those damned gongs and drums appeared on time again, and Liu Bao angrily discharged the cavalry in pursuit, but he didn't even find the ghost shadow, but many cavalry strayed into the opponent's trap because it was dark, and lost a few.

Early the next morning, Liu Bao divided into four thousand teams with a black face, and set up four camps around the camp to defend the main camp.

In the evening, looking at the sunset that gradually fell into the West Mountain, Liu Bao breathed a long sigh of relief, tonight, I can finally have a good night's sleep, with these four guard camps, I will definitely let the people sent by Lu Bu come and go.

With such thoughts, Liu Bao fell into a deep sleep, he has not slept well for two consecutive nights, this night, including the soldiers guarding the camp have a good night's sleep, in the middle of the night, the shouting and killing sound again, I don't know if it is because of the psychological effect, those shouting and killing have lasted for a long time, but it seems to be far away.

On the morning of the fourth day, Liu Bao was forcibly woken up by his subordinates.

"What's going on?" Looking at a group of subordinates with gloomy and ugly faces, Liu Bao suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart, and hurriedly asked.

"Shan Yu." A subordinate general said with a gloomy face: "Last night, Lu Bu sent a large army and attacked four guard camps and 4,000 soldiers, but none of them survived. ”

The silence, depression and dull atmosphere shrouded the entire handsome tent in an instant, and Liu Bao, who had slept all night and recovered his spirits, finally woke up, what a ridiculous mistake he had made!

It seems that the separation of the four guard battalions can effectively crack Lu Bu's tired soldier technique, but this is also equivalent to isolating his four thousand warriors separately, you know, those four thousand warriors were also tired for two nights, he remembered that he vaguely heard the sound of shouting and killing last night, but he did not hear the sound of gongs and drums as usual, that is to say, the other party this time was a direct sneak attack instead of bluffing like before.

It's ridiculous that he actually built four guard camps under Lu Bu's nose, when Liu Bao went out of the camp to check, the four guard camps had turned into ashes, the corpses of four thousand soldiers and some of Lu Bu's corpses fell to the ground, it can be seen that these soldiers who were divided were in a hurry to meet the battle in the case of a sudden attack, many people took off their leather armor, only carrying a scimitar in the battle, and many were burned alive, Lu Bu shot this time, obviously a planned sneak attack, very simply, The other party's loss is even less than one-tenth of theirs!

Overnight, the loss of 4,000 warriors, which made Liu Bao suddenly have a deep sense of frustration, from the beginning of the tired soldiers, tired of themselves at the same time, but also in the negligence of himself, let himself in a very tired situation, subconsciously regard those bluffers as the first enemy to be eliminated, while ignoring that his real enemy is Lu Bu, who is prostrate in the two military camps opposite, known for his cunning and ferocity!

The loss of 4,000 warriors not only made Liu Bao lose his plan to divide his troops to attack Linrong and lose enough troops, but more importantly, the 30,000 army when he came has now only more than 18,000 people left, and in terms of numbers, he has lost his absolute superiority, and in the heart of the army, with the demise of these 4,000 warriors, there has been great turmoil!

Looking at the generals with decadent faces and a little tired, Liu Bao believed that not only these people, but all the Hun warriors in the entire military camp might have lost the heart to fight again at this moment.

"Prepare and retire." Liu Bao didn't know that he was saying this sentence in a tone, the strength of his body seemed to be drained in an instant, the soldiers had no heart to fight, and they would retreat, although it was very clear that if they retreated like this, the Huns would really lose their momentum, but this order, he had to give it, stay, these Hun warriors would probably all be explained here, after this battle, the name Lu Bu has become a lingering nightmare in the hearts of the Huns, and even Liu Bao has a heart that does not dare to be an enemy with it, not to mention these ordinary soldiers, He can only choose to retreat, at least he still has some self-preservation, but if these soldiers and horses are all fought here, then the Huns will really be finished! (To be continued.) )
