In terms of location, Jingcheng is located in the middle of Changshan country, where water flows through it, and there are also mountains running through it, which is better than the geographical location of Zhending.

Lü Bu withdrew his troops all the way to the west, and finally stopped here and temporarily set up camp.

Liyi's withdrawal was just to return to the nearby Zhending County, but Lu Bu's withdrawal was thorough enough, and he directly pulled out the village and retreated all the way here.

In Zhending before, Lu Bu could have avoided the war, but the reason why he still had to fight with Koji Yi was just to stabilize the army's heart - first of all, it is easy to shake the army's heart by unexplained retreat, and the army's heart is very important when entering a strange region now, such as after the battle with Liyi, he showed that he was not weaker than the opponent's strength and then retreated, even if the soldiers had doubts, they would not waver; At the same time, he also wanted to show Yuan Shao his strength, and it must be said that he also did this, because Lu Yi originally received Yuan Shao's order, that is, to let him act at the opportunity, if he can win the battle, it is naturally impossible to leave it alone, but if it is not a decisive decision in one fell swoop, it is also a good choice to maintain the stalemate.

Obviously, even if Yuan Shao was furious when he heard Lu Bu's news, he was not an ordinary person after all, and he was not completely dominated by hatred and anger.

And at this time, in the tent, Lu Bu frowned slightly, he felt that something was not right, because this way back was too smooth, not almost, but not at all.

Yuan Shao's hatred for himself should be very strong, so even if Lu Yi will not fight to the death with him, it is impossible for him to retreat so safely, even if it is a superficial pursuit. It's not that Lu Bu has to be chased by someone to run away if he is cheap, it's just that it is inferred from common sense, which is a little suspicious.

What's going on?

Lu Bu firmly believed that Yuan Shao would not be able to let him go lightly, so it was not that the pursuers were gone, but that they might just wait somewhere, suddenly appear at some time, and catch him off guard.

Jia Xu immediately put forward a bold idea: Could it be that they have fallen for the scheme?

Hearing Jia Xu say this, Lu Bu and the others thought about it carefully, and it seemed that there was indeed such a possibility.

Perhaps it was from the fact that they deviated from the established plan. Before the decisive battle between Yuan, Han and Gongsun began, the evacuation began at that moment. Things were out of their control, heading in a direction they didn't know, and what would happen next was impossible to predict.

Jia Xu sighed again at this time. It seems to be hesitant not to know what to say. But in the end, he said, "Even think about it." Maybe there was something wrong with that Yan Rou, or maybe there was a problem with Bo Yu's communication with Yan Rou that time. Bo Yu also said it himself when he came back, we can't pin our hopes on Yan Rou. Even if Yan Rou implied that she was already willing to cooperate with us......"

Lu Bu knew why Jia Xu hesitated, because he was afraid of offending Liangle, not that he was afraid of Liangle, but his philosophy of life has always been indisputable and wise to protect himself, but under Lu Bu's account, he was deeply influenced by Lu Bu, and now it has changed a lot, so he finally spoke.

As for Jia Xu's words, after Lu Bu was shocked, his heart moved again, needless to say that he agreed a little, in fact, Yan Rou also sent someone to provide them with some information later, and it was proved to be correct, but this does not mean anything, especially now that the situation has developed to this point, if you think about it carefully, the problem can only lie in these details.

In particular, Yuan Jun seems to know his whereabouts very well, even if he has not pursued him now, Lu Bu seems to be able to feel that someone has been watching him secretly, and they let themselves leave like this, if they don't really want to let them go, then they are very sure of where they will appear, and there is no need to keep chasing them.

Lu Bu didn't know what Yan Rou was thinking, but obviously through Guò's contact with Liangle, he understood Lu Bu's purpose, and he was able to deduce some of Lu Bu's follow-up plans.

In this regard, it is because they themselves have not thought it through, so they will be caught by the other party, and if this Yan Rou insists on keeping his mouth shut, it will be fine, but if he and Yuan Shao ......

Perhaps, Yuan Shao had already sent him away, and then set up such a trap waiting for him to jump?

Of course, even so, this may not have been what Yuan Shao did at the beginning, Lu Bu believed that he was not so godly that he would expect that he would appear at that time, I am afraid that he is also always paying attention to Liu He, and he is not a stranger to the people Liu He came into contact with before his death, and he felt that Yan Rou was useful to him, so he continued to use it, but he didn't expect that the first move after Lu Bu entered Jizhou was to send someone to find Yan Rou, so naturally he would not waste such a good opportunity.

Although Lu Bu never believed that Yan Rou would cooperate obediently, he didn't think that he would throw himself at Yuan Shao at the beginning, but now it seems that Yuan Shao knows so clearly about Yiqi, especially to know his purpose and where he may go, he can really only learn from Yan Rou, because compared to the leaks of his own insiders, Lu Bu does not believe Yan Rou's character and guarantee.

Of course, whether there is a problem on Yan Rou's side or not, the top priority now is to solve the current predicament, at least to be able to get out of the predicament, and the rest will be talked about later.

"Whew!" Lu Bu let out a heavy breath, and he felt a little nervous.

Honestly, it's not a good feeling, and no one likes to be in an unknown and unpredictable situation, but they have to face the reality and only then can they come up with a good solution.

Originally, this was not Liangle's fault, but he still felt very guilty and blamed himself for it, but young people always have to pay some price, the original Liangle was a young phoenix, and the young phoenix was very loud at the beginning, so he took this opportunity to suddenly enter the top of Lu Bu's power, but after all, he was a fledgling, and his experience was still a little insufficient, and his grasp of human nature was covered up by his personal pride for a few points, so he would make such a mistake, and after this lesson, if he can learn and correct and start again, I believe there will be a huge transformation.

However, Lu Bu didn't have the energy to focus on him for a while, they had to come up with a countermeasure now, no matter whether the truth was as bad as they thought, they had to be prepared in advance, so that they could be prepared.

At this moment, Tong Bing came from outside the door: "Wen Hou, Ling Xing asks to see ......"

Lu Bu and Jia Xu glanced at each other, and they both saw a hint of brilliance in each other's eyes.

Ling Xing can be regarded as an old man under Lu Bu, and now he is still a pro-soldier squad leader, but he also has a secret identity, that is, he is a member of the secret agent team led by Jia Xu, and he is also specially placed in the secret agent team by Lu Bu, of course, Jia Xu is probably clear about this, but he will not say anything.

However, during the period when Lu Bu withdrew his troops, he had always been arranged to lead the scout team in front to investigate the situation, and now he suddenly appeared to ask for a meeting, and he knew that there was probably some emergency without asking.

Lu Bu kept his composure and let Ling Xing speak first, but his heart sank a little.

When Ling Xing walked in, Lu Bu could still see the haze on his face, Lu Bu's heart sank even more, and after Ling Xing saluted, he was not polite and hurriedly asked, "But what's the urgency?" ”

Not only Lu Bu, but Jia Xu, Zhang Liao, Liangle and others in the tent at this time also looked at Ling Xing closely, the latter was so concerned, but he did not seem restrained, after all, if he did not have a strong psychological element, how could he enter Jia Xudi's secret agent team.

Ling Xing didn't say much, but he was concise and to the point, they were all his own people here anyway, and he didn't have to worry about being overheard by anyone, he first gave up his hand and said "Wen Hou", and then immediately answered Lu Bu's question: "According to the report from our secret agents, ten miles away in front of us, we found the men and horses of Liyi......"

As soon as he was halfway through speaking, Lu Bu stood up abruptly and said in a deep voice: "Koyi's men and horses, ran ahead of us?" ”

They retreated to the west, and their front was naturally in the west, and they were now in Jingcheng, that is, Koyi had reached the west of Jingcheng.

It stands to reason that when it comes to the familiarity with the terrain of Hebei and Jizhou, no one in Lu Bu's army can compare with the enemy, and many times the reason why Guojianglong can't overpower the head snake is that the advantage brought by the geographical advantage has to occupy a large part of the factor, and now this is the case, so Lu Bu is not surprised that the pursuit of the army led by Koyi first went around to his front.

But one of the possibilities that came to mind made his heart heavy, although they fought fiercely with each other in the battle in Zhending before, they actually had reservations, and they all seemed to maintain a degree of tacit understanding, and each other did not cross lightly, otherwise it would be impossible for both sides to retreat so well, if it was said that Koji Yi was like that at that time to preserve his strength so as not to make a leak in Gongsun Chan and Han Fu, how could it have become a "desperate pursuit" and blocking people's way as if they were going to fight to the death.

After all, Lu Budu has already made a show of weakness and withdrawn his troops to the west, and it seems that he is preparing to return home after a battle with Koyi can't get a good deal.

If Yuan Shao found Lu Yi to come here just to contain Lu Bu, then he would have achieved his goal before, but if that was the case, he should be even more eager for Lu Bu to lead his troops back to the state, first, he could claim that he repelled Lu Bu's strong momentum, and second, lest Lu Bu stay here and become a time bomb.

But now it is on the retreat of Lu Bu's army - after all, Lu Bu has only been camped in Jingcheng for a day this time, and no one can say that he will not retreat, and Lu Yi has made it clear that he does not want Lu Bu to go back, this intention seems to be obvious, what Lu Bu is puzzled about is that he is not afraid that this will force Lu Bu to simply give up the circuit and run back to make trouble in Jizhou first? (To be continued......)
