This time, the wind and the beauty, it is a good sunny day.

However, the gate of Pengcheng in Xuzhou is closed, and many soldiers in the city are patrolling or standing guard, each soldier is holding the spear in his hand tightly, or holding the bow and arrow in his hand, his expression is tense, and the tense atmosphere before the war is spreading.

Speaking of which, Lu Bu is really a bit of a wretch. I think that his army was originally inherited from Ding Yuan's lineage, and he wanted to merge the elite soldiers of the state with the grassland, so they were constantly fighting, and they were all elite goods.

It is also a state iron horse, which is also vertical and horizontal, and is on a par with Xiliang iron horse.

And the generals under his command, such as Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Song Xian, Cao surnamed and other generations are also brave and good at fighting, and Lu Bu himself is the first in the world.

With such a brave general who is the first in the world to lead, and Zhang Liao and other strong generals as the backbone, with a large number of elite soldiers in Bingzhou as wings, such an army should be born to dominate the world.

But unfortunately, Lu Bu has been defeated repeatedly.

Even if an elite soldier is invincible in the world, after experiencing one failed war after another, he will become weak and unconfident.

Even before the big war, there was still a bit of nervousness. The current Lu Bu army is in such a situation, it is really pitiful.

This situation has been going on, even if there are generals who are constantly patrolling to improve morale.

"Although the lord said that it was okay to tide over the crisis, but." Zhang Liao was dressed in gold armor and an embroidered robe on his back, looking mighty, but there was a lot of worry between his eyebrows.

He looked at the soldiers around him, and then thought about when Lu Bu boosted his morale, he said that it was okay to tide over the crisis, but he had a skeptical attitude.

"Let's get by." In the end, Zhang Liao could only think of it weakly.

There is no way, the current Zhang Liao is not the strong general who can dominate the world with thousands of elite soldiers in later generations, he currently has only hundreds of elite soldiers under his command, and Lu Bu does not trust him very much.

People are soft-spoken, what can they do?

"Da-da-da-da."

Just when Zhang Liao was weak, there was a sound of horses' hooves from the west. Immediately after, a huge army appeared on the horizon.

"Liu", a handsome flag was erected high, flying in the wind, and the majesty was incomparable.

"Liu Bei, Liu Bei's army has arrived."

"The vanguard of the Cao army has been killed."

Suddenly, the soldiers in the city were nervous again, and some soldiers kept shouting.

"Liu Bei." Zhang Liao looked up at the army in front of him, and a little complicated flashed in his eyes, although this guy was defeated by the lord several times, he was united in his heart.

After failure, you can be cheered up immediately.

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Chen Zhi are all inseparable from these people, and they are really a good force.

Zhang Liao felt a little envious in his heart.

"Hurry up and report to the lord." I was envious in my heart, but Zhang Liao still knew his position, waved his hand, and shouted.

"No."

Some of the soldiers said yes and went immediately. Soon after, Lü Bu led Chen Gong, Gao Shun, Cao and other generals to the north of the city.

"Big-eared thief."

As soon as he saw Liu Bei's banner, Lu Bu immediately showed a look of gritted teeth, extremely annoyed.

"Lord, now that Liu Bei's army has just arrived, he has not been able to set up a camp, so he should lead the elite soldiers to the battle, and Liu Bei will be defeated. As long as Liu Bei is broken, it will affect Cao Ying's morale. ”

Chen Gong's eyes lit up and he said.

"Liu Bei is the vanguard, Cao Ying is the Chinese army, not far apart. If I enter Liu Bei, and I can't break through it in time and withdraw, I will have to face a large number of elite soldiers from Cao Ying, which is too risky. ”

Lu Bu shook his head and refused when he heard this.

"Hey." Chen Gong can be said to have taken advantage of the excitement and returned in defeat, so he could only shrug his head and retreat.

Lu Bu ignored Chen Gong's loss, but raised his arms and shouted: "All the generals listen to the order, there is Yuan Shu, Zang Ba is a foreign aid, and Pengcheng is a tall city, as long as you defend it, you can repel the Cao army." After repelling Cao's army, I should drink with my soldiers to celebrate the victory. ”

"Oh oh oh, Wen Hou is mighty, Wen Hou is mighty."

Lu Bu's prestige is still higher than Zhang Liao's, and it is very difficult for Zhang Liao to improve his morale, but Lu Bu can do some of it, although the soldiers are not radiant, but they are also a little excited, and they call Wenhou mighty.

With a little momentum, Zhang Liao's heart was also lifted, and he looked forward to the future.

When the soldiers in the city shouted "Wenhou is mighty", under the city, Liu Bei's side sneered.

"Lu Bu thinks he is brave and dominates the world, but I waited for the first time to arrive and his foothold was not stable, but he did not dare to lead his troops to fight and retreat into the city. What a Wen Hou is mighty, but he is just a weak horseman. Zhang Fei said with a sneer.

"Exactly, with martial courage and strength, but not daring to compete with the enemy, it is just a fierce inward." Guan Yu also nodded in agreement and said.

Liu Bei's army was defeated by Lu Bu for the second time, and he became a pioneer in a hurry, hoping to fight with Lu Bu, but he didn't expect Lu Bu to shrink in the city, which was naturally unpleasant.

"Let's set up camp."

Liu Bei also sneered, but he didn't speak, and waved his hand.

"No."

The generals agreed, so 5,000 elite soldiers began to set up camp, and soon a large camp was built, not only the interior was orderly, but also the perimeter was also defended by tall wooden walls, in addition, there were many trenches and other fortifications outside the camp.

In a word, the camp was built very strongly, but it took a lot of effort to capture it.

Originally, Lu Bu felt that Liu Bei was not a person to take seriously. Besides, if it takes too long to break Liu Bei, it will attract Cao Ying's Chinese army.

In a field battle with Cao Ying, it is to hit a stone with an egg, and the gains outweigh the losses. Therefore, Lu Bu's heart was very dissatisfied with Chen Gong's suggestion.

But now that Liu Bei had built a large camp and spent his efforts to build many fortifications outside, Lu Bu felt that it was an eyesore and wanted to destroy it.

I regretted that I didn't follow Chen Gong's advice.

However, he regretted that Lu Bu would not admit it, only to see him pointing to Liu Bei's camp, and sneered: "Big-eared thief, it's not good to fight, but for his own safety, the general's camp is built like a turtle shell, but he is very good at it, and he is really a turtle with a shrunken head." ”

"Hahaha."

Lu Bu's words, let's not say whether it is reasonable or not, but the domineering and contempt shown are a great morale boost, and the generals immediately laughed when they heard it.

"Let's go, it's too late anyway, and it's impossible to fight again. Just order the soldiers to be on guard, let's go back first, recuperate, and then fight Cao Ying. ”

After a moment, Lu Bu ordered.

"No." The generals promised Chen Gong and went down with Lu Bu.

And just after Liu Bei built the camp, the army led by Cao Ying finally arrived. The 50,000 horse infantry army is already ten times more than Liu Bei's army in terms of numbers alone.

Not to mention that in Cao Ying's army, the elite level of the soldiers is not comparable to Liu Bei's army at all. The momentum is strong, and the difference is dozens of times.

"If I can have this army, I should dominate the Central Plains." Cao Ying arrived, Liu Bei had to lead everyone to greet him, he looked at this imposing army, and suddenly felt very envious.

"Hahaha, Xuande."

At this moment, hundreds of light horsemen appeared in Cao's army, galloping towards Liu Bei's camp, stopping not far away, and then a loud laugh sounded.

Liu Bei fixed his eyes on the person who was laughing, but it turned out to be Cao Ying who came in person.

"Mengde." Liu Bei's face showed a bit of kindness and greeted him.

"Meet the Great Priest."

"Meet General Zuo."

And Liu Bei, the generals beside Cao Ying, such as Guan Yu, Cao Ren and others also saluted Liu Bei and Cao Ying respectively, and their attitudes were very respectful.

After a while of pleasantries, it was time to get to the point.

"What is the situation in Pengcheng now?" Cao Ying asked Liu Bei.

"Lu Bu is so strong that he doesn't even have the courage to go out of the city to fight." Liu Bei said.

"Lu Bu is getting worse and worse than back then, thinking that he could kill Ding Yuan and kill Dong Zhuo back then, how bold." Cao Ying also sighed when he heard this.

"It's a good thing, within a few months, Lone will definitely go down to Pengcheng and kill Lu Bu." Immediately afterwards, Cao Ying smiled again, with a confident face.

"With Da Sikong and my 55,000 elite soldiers, it is not difficult to destroy Lu Bu in a few months. It's just that I heard that Huainan Yuan Shu is excited now, and I'm afraid it will bring about changes. Liu Bei expressed his concerns.

Although Yuan Shu is not a cause for concern, it is also a big hidden danger.

"It's okay, Guangling Chen Deng, has decided to send five thousand soldiers to the south and station in the Huai River to guard against Yuan Shu." Cao Ying said with a smile when he heard this.

This is the news that Cao Ying received on the way to lead the army. And also very good, very exciting news. Although Yuan Shu had an army of 20,000, he was unscrupulous and brave, and could not be Chen Deng's opponent.

It is already impossible to go north. In this way, the change is gone.

"Chen Yuanlong." Liu Bei's eyes also lit up, and he said very happily.

Chen Deng has the courage to be civil and military, and the enemy Yuan Shu is enough. Thinking of this, Liu Bei also had some regrets, thinking that he was in charge of Xuzhou back then, and Chen Deng was also a talent under his command, and he also supported him very much.

It's a pity that he lost Xuzhou, and his connection with Chen Deng was broken.

And now, Chen Deng is obviously inclined to Cao Ying, but it's a pity, it's a pity. Liu Bei's heart was sorry for the loss of a talent.

"Therefore, you should be relieved, Lu Bu will definitely die." Cao Ying said with a smile.

"Ready, Lone and Cao Ren and Xuande are in a battalion, guarding the west of the city. Li Dian and Le Jin each led a battalion of soldiers and horses, and camped in the north and east of the city respectively. Surrounded on three sides, wait for Ming to storm Pengcheng. ”

Immediately after, Cao Ying gave the order.

"No." All the generals agreed in unison.

Soon after, Liu Bei's camp was enlarged, and two camps were also stationed in the north and west of the city, and the three camps were in the shape of a zigzag, firmly squeezing Pengcheng in the middle, just waiting for Ming to storm and take Pengcheng.

The battle of Xuzhou has finally begun.
