In August of the third year of Jian'an, Lu Buliu Hou in Xuzhou City became a garrison to guard Xuzhou, and he personally raised an army of 80,000, with Cheng Lian leading an army of 10,000 as the vanguard, Hao Meng led 10,000 soldiers as the guard, and he was in the center, to attack Xiaopei, and for a time the entire land of Henan was turbulent. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info However, Liu Bei is actively preparing for the war, and even Cao Cao in Yingchuan and Gao Ye in Qingzhou have begun to move.

In particular, Liu Bei's letter for help made Cao Cao overjoyed. Originally, Cao Cao planned to wait for Lu Bu and Liu Bei to fight, and then use the name of the Son of Heaven himself, no matter which of the two of them won in the end, he could use the reason of using troops without authorization and conscripting ministers to enter Xuzhou in the name of righteousness. Now it is provincial, because Liu Bei, the pastor of Xuzhou who is stationed in Xiaopei, personally went to the table, saying that Lu Bu was not, and asked the imperial court to send troops to conquer. In this way, the reason to enter Xuzhou is even more sufficient.

Although Cao Cao has been doing recuperation and recuperation in the past year, he has not relaxed in terms of armament. Although Cao Cao did not arrange more men and horses in the two counties of Lu and Taishan, but in the areas of Liang, Jiyin, Shanyang, and Rencheng, he gathered 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the heart of annexing Xuzhou had already been revealed. Therefore, Cao Cao gave an order, Xiahoudun was the main one, and Cao Hong was the deputy general, and immediately led 30,000 troops as a vanguard to help Liu Bei. Cao Cao mobilized Zhao Yun, Cao Chun, Li Dian, and Le Jin, and Guo Jia, Xun You, Cheng Yu, and Dong Zhao, four ministers, led 70,000 troops, and came to Xuzhou in a mighty manner. With an army of 100,000, Cao Cao is determined to win Xuzhou this time.

Therefore, although Lu Bujun's movements were fast, the speed of Xiahoudun's soldiers and horses was not slow. Cheng Lian was careful of Liu Bei's sneak attack all the way, although Liu Bei never arranged for people to sneak attack. But as a pioneer general, how can you not be careful? On the other side, Xiahoudun and the others naturally marched normally in Yanzhou, if it weren't for Xiahoudun knowing that Lu Bu's army was brave, he couldn't wait to run to Xiaopei in one breath and fight with Na Lu Bu for 300 rounds.

Therefore, after Xiahoudun's soldiers and horses marched to the territory of Peiguo, the marching speed plummeted, firstly, to store troops. Second, Cao Cao had already ordered Lu Bujun to spend some money under Xiaopei City and then pick up the bargain. By the way, he waited for his own Chinese army, as well as the weight of soldiers, horses, food, and grass, so Xiahoudun deliberately slowed down his speed, and only marched fifty miles a day. It was not until the Chinese army led by Cao Cao was less than fifty miles away from him that Xiahoudun resumed his normal marching speed.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Jian Yong, who came to send a letter to Cao Cao and ask for help for Liu Bei, was anxious, although he often looked like a hanger, but when Liu Bei died, he still asked Cao Cao to speed up the march. Especially now that the military report has been received, the vanguard of Lu Bujun's army has arrived in Xiaopei, how can Jian Yong not worry about Liu Bei?

Although Jian Yong knew that there were still 20,000 soldiers and horses in Xiaopei City, and the city was quite strong, he was not afraid of 10,000 in everything. Lu Bu has wise people like Chen Gong and Chen Deng under him, God knows if they will come up with some clever plan and cost Liu Bei's life?

Seeing Jian Yong's eagerness, Guo Jia on the side smiled and said, "Xianhe doesn't have to worry. Now it is just the vanguard of Lu Bu's army arrayed under Xiaopei City, Liu Xuzhou now has 20,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, as long as he guards the city, I expect that Chenglian will not be able to capture Xiaopei. ”

Although Guo Saijiu's words are reasonable, but now that Cheng Lian has been enlisted under Xiaopei City, then Lu Bu will definitely arrive soon. The Chen Gong under him is quite wise, I'm just afraid of ......"

"Hahahaha." When Jian Yong said this, he only heard Guo Jia is burst of laughter, and when he was surprised, he only heard Guo Jia say: "Then Chen Gongtai is just a defeated general under my master, and when he was in Yanzhou, he was even more defeated in a sizeless place, so what are you afraid of?" ”

"But ......"

"Xianhe, don't worry, although Liu Xuzhou is not as good as my father-in-law, he is not so easy to be calculated by Chen Gong. Besides, General Xiahoudun is now only eighty miles away from Xiaopei, and he is just around the corner, so what do you have to worry about? Don't talk about this, Brother Xianhe, let's talk about Liu Xuzhou......"

Jian Yong listened to Guo Jia's words, and his heart was also a little settled, and then he asked Liu Bei, and Jian Yong naturally talked eloquently. If you want to say that this Jian Yong is a good hand at handling political affairs, it is a pity that if you want to play conspiracy, he and Guo Jiake are far behind. After a Q&A, not only Guo Jia, but also Xun You, Dong Zhao, Cheng Yu, and even Cao Cao in the account already had a very comprehensive understanding of Xiao Peicheng and Liu Bei's soldiers and horses. In this way, even if Cao Cao starts a war with Liu Bei now, knowing himself and knowing his opponent, it will be easy to win.

Cao Cao's army was still marching towards Xuzhou, and Xiahoudun, who was the vanguard, had to immediately send troops to deploy at this time. Cheng Lian, the vanguard of Lu Bu's army, had already received a report from the scout, saying that Xiahoudun's soldiers and horses had arrived. A flying horse had already come to report to Lu Bu, and Lu Bu immediately sent Cao Xing with 5,000 cavalry to come for reinforcements. After Cheng Lian met with Cao Xing, he abandoned Xiao Pei and took his soldiers and horses to a place thirty miles away from Xiao Pei to meet Xiahou Dun. It is precisely because of this that Xiahoudun, who has been marching, is meeting Cheng Lian and Cao Xing, so he hurriedly lined up and prepared to fight. Xiahoudun even beat his horse out, pointed at Cheng Lian with his sword, and shouted loudly: "The heavenly soldiers are here, if you don't get off your horse and surrender quickly, when will you wait?" ”

When Cheng Lian heard this, he also stepped out with a gun, and shouted: "Xiahoudun, don't you only know how to speak?" Brave enough to fight with me, if not, get out of Xuzhou as soon as possible, and the province will die here! ”

When Xiahoudun heard this, he was immediately furious, and shouted: "The thief is so daring, and let me Xiahoudun see if your ability is as powerful as you say." Xiahoudun shouted, and the prancing horse came out with a spear, and went straight towards Cheng Lian. Cheng Lian can achieve the position of the eight strong generals under Lu Bu's account, and he is naturally a person with excellent martial arts. Although Xiahoudun has a reputation for bravery, after all, he has not fought against Lu Bu like Gao Ye and Zhao Yun, so Cheng Lian feels that no matter how powerful Xiahoudun is, he is on the same level as himself, so what is he afraid of?

Both of them were swords in their hands, and they killed each other, and the two horses intersected, and the battle lasted for more than thirty rounds. The two sides had already finished their formations at this time, and they were all quietly watching the fight between Xiahoudun and Cheng Lian in the field. However, Cheng Lian in the field was a little powerless at this time. Although he only fought with Xiahoudun for more than 30 rounds, and in terms of strength, he was better than Xiahoudun, but Xiahoudun's swordsmanship was outstanding, and there were no flaws in more than 30 rounds.

After fighting for more than ten times, Cheng Lian only felt that he couldn't cover it, and he was afraid, so he made a false move and fled. Cao Hong, who was behind, saw that Xiahoudun was victorious, and immediately ordered the flag to make a move, and the whole army attacked. Seeing this, Cao Xing, who was on the other side, also ordered a formation and prepared to fight.

Let's say that Xiahoudun saw Chenglian retreating, and his heart was suddenly overjoyed. As a pioneer officer, if he succeeds in becoming incorruptible, he will be the first to make a contribution. Cheng Lian is now cowardly, and it is easy to kill. Thinking of this, he immediately chased after the horse. Cao Hong even led the army, closely following the pace of Xiahoudun, and went straight towards Lu Bu's army.

Xiahoudun saw Cheng Lian running fast and hiding in the army, knowing that it would be difficult to catch up, so he immediately abandoned Cheng Lian and took the soldiers and horses to kill with the Lu Bujun led by Cao Xing at this time. Although both sides were tired divisions, when they were just fighting, Xiahou was victorious and incorruptible, Cao was demoralized and Lu Bu was demoralized. In addition, the training method of Cao Jun was also very different from that of Lu Bujun, and the number of people was relatively large, and it was only half an hour before and after, Cheng Lian and Cao Xing could no longer resist it, and immediately ordered a retreat.

Xiahou was killed, and seeing that victory was imminent now, he was even more happy in his heart. While commanding the army to continue the attack, he frequently harvested the lives of Lu Bu's soldiers. In the distance, Cheng Lian and Cao Xing knew that the defeat was irretrievable, so they ordered a retreat. Cao Xing saw Xiahoudun rushing to kill in the formation, sneered in his heart, and then said to Cheng Lian beside him: "General Cheng continues to command the retreat, although Xiahoudun is brave, hum, and look at Lao Tzu, I will reward him with an arrow!" ”

After that, he drew his bow and arrow, and looked at it really, and then shot an arrow. Xiahoudun was killing happily in the military formation, and suddenly he only felt that his scalp was numb, and he couldn't help but raise his eyes. This look really scared me into a cold sweat. A black spot in front of him flew straight towards him, how could Xiahoudun, who had been in battle for a long time, not know that someone had released a cold arrow. Thinking about it, this arrow came quite quickly, if it wasn't for his own premonition, he was afraid that he would die under this arrow. Seeing that the black dot was getting bigger and bigger, Xiahoudun hurriedly leaned forward with his left hand and leaned back. This arrow came too quickly, and it was not in a hurry to block it by swinging his gun, so Xiahoudun only hoped that he would be able to pull away this arrow with his left hand, and lean back, in case he didn't pull it away, so he could avoid this catastrophe.

However, what Xiahoudun never expected was that the speed of this arrow was too fast, so fast that Xiahoudun was extremely surprised. The left hand had already touched the arrow, and then he shook it, but unfortunately it was still a step too late. Although his body leaned back, he had not yet fallen down, and the arrow had already hit his face.

Hearing only a shout, although Xiahoudun held the arrow in his left hand, the arrow in his left eye was so painful, so he subconsciously roared. Cao Xing, who was in the distance, saw it clearly, and was secretly happy to shoot the general of the Cao army in his heart, who knew that Xiahou Xuan suddenly shouted again, raised his left hand, and pulled out the arrow.

was taken aback, only to hear Xiahoudun shouting: "Father's essence and mother's blood, forbear and abandon it!" He swallowed his eyeballs in one gulp, and then shouted with a long knife: "Which thief hurts people with a secret arrow, and he will take his life with me today!" "After that, I slapped the horse and danced the knife, and I saw that there was a general not far away, and the bow in his hand had not been put away, and his heart was this person. A dozen horses went straight towards Cao Xing, who was still in a daze.

Cheng Lian on the side saw it seriously, thinking that Cao Xing's arrow would definitely kill Xiahoudun, who knew that Xiahoudun was so heroic, not to mention his timely response, and he was even more heroic when he was injured. For a while, Cao Jun's morale was great, and Lu Bujun was shocked by Xiahoudun's move, and even Cao Xing was surprised, looking lost and depressed. Cheng Lian immediately patted Cao Xing on the shoulder and said, "Don't do anything, General Cao, retreat quickly!" ”
