"Five thousand elites, you actually only brought back less than a thousand remnants of the defeated generals, and you still have the face to come back to see me?"

Looking at Zhang Fei who was extremely embarrassed in front of him, Liu Bei almost fainted without taking a breath, although he was mentally prepared for Zhang Fei's possible failure, but he never thought that Zhang Fei would lose so badly!

"Useless horseman! It's really hateful to lose my morale and lose my morale! What's the use of keeping you? If you don't kill you, how can you comfort my Xuzhou soldiers' souls in the sky! Drag me down, cut it! ”

Zhang Fei, who was covered in blood, knelt on the ground and bowed his head without saying a word. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Liu Bei wants to kill him, even if he doesn't want to die, he has no words. From the day he decided to follow Liu Bei, he gave his life to this man. Don't say that he made such a big mistake, even if Liu Bei wanted to kill him for no reason, he would never frown.

Guan Yu hurriedly stopped the guards who were about to come forward to get someone, knelt down beside Zhang Fei and pleaded: "Big brother is angry, Yide is certainly at fault, but please ask the eldest brother to see his brother's love for many years, and leave him with his life to make meritorious contributions!" ”

Of course, Liu Bei would not really be willing to kill Zhang Fei, just to convince the public, but he had to sing this play, just Guan Yu pleaded alone, and he refused to let him take a curtain call.

With a straight face, Liu Bei categorically refused: "The crime of Yide is unforgivable, not killing is not enough for the people to be angry, and not killing is not enough to boost the prestige of the army." Although you and I brothers are deeply affectionate, military law is ruthless, not me! ”

The Mi brothers glanced at each other, and at the same time knelt on the ground, also pleading with Zhang Fei.

Chen Qun sighed slightly, and opened his mouth to persuade: "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, although the three generals are guilty, but the crime is not to death, please be lenient and benevolent, and leave the three generals useful to make contributions on the battlefield!" ”

Chen Qun had already expressed his position, but Liu Bei still refused to let go, but his attitude was not as resolute as at the beginning. Obviously, he is still waiting for someone to make a statement.

Chen Deng slowly took two steps forward and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, congratulations to the lord!" ”

Liu Bei was surprised: "Where does the joy come from?" ”

Chen Deng said: "The three generals returned with a heavy defeat, but the Cao army did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, which shows that the Cao army really retreated." The danger of Xuzhou has been solved, isn't this a great joy? ”

Liu Bei nodded in amazement, as if, it was indeed like this.

Chen Deng said again: "Moreover, the minister also thinks that the three generals cannot be killed, and they must not be killed!" ”

Liu Bei asked, "Why is this?" ”

Chen Deng said: "Because, among the generals, only the three generals know the situation of Cao Jun best. ”

Liu Bei felt the confusion on his head, "How about that?" Cao's army withdrew to Yanzhou, it must have been because the Youhe army had already been killed, and once the two sides fought, it would inevitably be a desperate situation. Even if the thief wins, it will definitely be a final victory. In this way, at least in the short term, it will no longer be able to endanger my Xuzhou people! ”

Chen Deng squinted his eyes and asked with a smile: "In the battle between Liu Bei and Han Jun, which side does the lord want to win?" ”

Liu Bei wished in his heart that these two wolf ambitious guys would fight to the death and lose both, but he could only think about it in his heart, and naturally he couldn't say it directly.

After pondering for a while, Liu Bei suddenly sighed and put on a compassionate posture, "No matter who wins or loses, I only hope that innocent people will not be implicated in the war." ”

Chen Deng smiled and said: "Han Junsheng, then Cao Cao will inevitably be greatly injured, and he will no longer have time to take care of him." Cao Cao's victory, then the heart of Xuzhou will inevitably rise again. Therefore, I hope Han Jun wins, I don't know what the lord's opinion is? ”

Liu Bei replied expressionlessly: "What Yuan Long said is naturally reasonable. There's no need to detour around the bush anymore, just get straight to the point. ”

In Chen Deng's narrowed eyes, a cold light suddenly flashed, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty suggests that the lord send three generals to lead troops out of the city and chase and kill Cao Jun!" ”

"What?"

Liu Bei was stunned and looked at Chen Deng in confusion.

Zhang Fei, who was waiting for death with his eyes closed, suddenly raised his head and looked at Chen Deng, his eyes full of hatred.

Of course, Chen Deng could read the meaning in Zhang Fei's eyes, but he didn't bother to defend himself. It's nothing more than thinking of himself as a villain who has fallen into a well, this reckless man is really stupid!

"Wonderful!"

Chen Qun slapped his palms suddenly, and his eyebrows danced: "Since Cao Cao's retreat is true, it must be a change in the rear and he has to retreat, and he must retreat in a hurry." However, no matter how cautious he was, he would never have imagined that our army would pursue again after a first defeat! ”

Chen Qun's explanation made Liu Bei's eyes light up, but he quickly frowned again.

After carefully calculating the available soldiers in Picheng, there were less than 10,000 people left. If half of them are divided into fighting outside the city, then the defense force of Xiapi City will be too weak.

Seeing that Liu Bei was a little hesitant, Chen Qun hurriedly persuaded: "Lord, this opportunity is rare, don't miss it!" While Cao's army has not gone far, the attack at this time will be a great victory! ”

Zhang Fei also came to his senses at this time, suddenly stood up and gritted his teeth and said, "Big brother, what Mr. Changwen said is right......

Guan Yu also said: "Big brother, Cao Thief and I have a common enmity, up and down Xuzhou, no one does not hate it to the bone, and no one does not hope that our army can be ashamed!" ”

Liu Bei pondered for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "Since this is the case, then I will personally lead the army to the battle!" ”

Leaving Guan Yu less than 5,000 old, weak, sick and disabled to defend the city, Liu Bei led Zhang Fei and 5,000 soldiers and horses to chase after him again.

The sentence of the corpse under the mountain of King Chu deeply stung Liu Bei, making his hatred for Cao Cao reach an unprecedented height.

The Cao army besieged the city for more than a month, and the Xuzhou army suffered only about 10,000 casualties, but in this battle under the King of Chu, thousands of heroes returned to heaven, which made Liu Bei fall into deep regret and self-blame.

Without bothering to bury and dispose of the body, Liu Bei led the army to rush into Chu Wang Mountain without hesitation. The revenge has not been avenged, and it is difficult to settle in the ground, only by letting more Cao soldiers come to their burial can they truly rest in peace.

"Cao Jun didn't even bother to pick up arrows and weapons, it was obvious that he was in a hurry to retreat, and there was absolutely no more ambush!"

Although Zhang Fei was wounded, his spirit was very high-pitched, and he was holding the Zhangba snake spear gun in his hand, and he couldn't wait to rush to Cao Cao immediately and stab a transparent hole in his body.

Liu Bei nodded slightly, "Having said that, you still can't be careless!" Command the whole army, be careful! ”

was about to reach the mountain pass, but Liu Bei suddenly waved his hand and ordered the whole army to stop advancing.

"Big brother, why is this?"

Zhang Fei, who was anxious, was full of incomprehension.

Liu Bei took a deep breath, shook his head and said, "I don't know why, I feel uneasy in my heart, it seems to be a bad omen!" So, be careful. In the Chuwang Mountain, the area around the mountain pass is the most suitable for ambush, so you have to guard against it! ”

Zhang Fei grinned and muttered, "Big brother is probably too careful." ”

Liu Bei glared at Zhang Fei angrily, "Haven't you thought about why you lost?" If you had been more careful at that time, how could you have fallen into an ambush by Cao's army? ”

The weakness of his heart was naturally not straight, coupled with the awe that Zhang Fei faced Liu Bei in his heart, which made him pout his lips and dare not speak again.

"Report to the envoy, the road out of the mountain pass, the footsteps are chaotic, and it leads to the distance. Cao Jun should have already left Chu Wang Mountain! ”

After patiently waiting for the news from the scouts to come back, Liu Bei put his mind at ease, put his sword in his hand, and said sharply: "Soldiers, come with me!" Avenge the innocent villagers! Avenge the robe who died on the battlefield! ”

The momentum of the Xuzhou soldiers was mobilized by Liu Bei's words, and all the soldiers howled, waving their weapons and rushing forward behind Liu Bei's horse.

But soon their howls turned to screams, for the sky above them suddenly became dark. What covered the sun was not clouds, but a rain of arrows that shimmered with cold light.

Yu Ban stood on the top of the mountain with his chest crossed, with an indifferent smile on the corner of his mouth, but his eyes were full of admiration. This worship is naturally not for Liu Bei, but for his lord Cao Cao.

He opened the bag left by Cao Cao again, held it in both hands and read Cao Cao's words again, "After the defeat and retreat of the Xuzhou army, don't retreat in a hurry, you must beware of the second attack of the enemy army!" ”

In just one sentence, more than a dozen words, Liu Bei was in a desperate situation.

The road was narrow, only three or four people could be accommodated, and it was too difficult to retreat. At the mountain pass, the rows of pikemen that suddenly appeared were so brave that it was impossible to force them through in a short time.

"Heaven is going to kill me! Heaven is going to kill me! ”

Liu Bei looked up to the sky and screamed sadly, but what he answered was only the more and more poignant sound of arrows piercing through the air.

Zhang Fei stayed by Liu Bei's side, brandishing a snake spear to block one menacing arrow after another for him, even if he had become an arrow target.

"Big brother, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood! Blocking the mountain pass is the Danyang soldiers, and it is difficult for us to rush out! So, give the order to retreat! ”

Zhang Fei's shout, but Liu Bei didn't seem to hear it at all, looked at the sword in his hand with a dull expression, and slashed at his neck suddenly.

"Big brother, no!"

Zhang Fei, who was quick with his eyes, reached out the snake spear and knocked out Liu Bei's sword at this critical moment.

He saved Liu Bei's life, but his arm couldn't be lifted, because at this time, a feather arrow pierced his shoulder blade fiercely.

"Big brother, let's go!"

Zhang Fei suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, gritted his teeth fiercely, and stabbed the mount under Liu Bei's crotch with a spear.

The war horse screamed and walked away without hesitation.

Zhang Fei held a spear in one hand, removed a few more feather arrows, and urged the horse to follow behind Liu Bei.

Yu Ban carefully put away the bag close to his body, looked into the distance with a faint gaze, and said to himself: "After these two battles, Xiapi City no longer has any resistance, right?" ”

"Even if Xiapi City becomes an empty city, it has nothing to do with us!"
