Chapter 354: A Difficult Situation

The siege speed of Lu Bu's army was not very fast, on the contrary, they seemed very calm with every step they took. Of course, this is also deliberately done by Chen Gong. Yesterday, Liu Bei's recruits and the conscripted people had already seen the madness of Lu Bujun's army. For the soldiers who went to the battlefield for the first time, Lu Bujun can definitely be called synonymous with terror.

Watching what he thought he was afraid of gradually oppressing him, such a gap in his heart would definitely make some soldiers cowardly without a fight. Therefore, just from the momentum point of view, I heard Liu Bei.

Time passed very slowly, and when the soldiers of Lu Bujun raised the shields in their hands one after another, it was equivalent to telling Liu Beijun on the city wall that he was not far from Xiao Pei's city. And the oppression of Lu Bu's army just now was also very effective, looking at the enemy army slowly coming, many soldiers in Xiaopei City had a timid heart. They were on the battlefield for the first time, and some of them were even peasants a few days ago, and the atmosphere of the war was quite unbearable to everyone.

But fortunately, there is a Dinghai Divine Needle at each city gate, whether it is Guan Yu Zhang Fei or the unknown Chen Dao, they are the gods in the hearts of every soldier guarding the city. And Liu Bei, not to mention, because Liu Bei, who has always been known for his benevolence and righteousness, has a very important weight among the people. Especially after he came to Xiaopei, his approachability made him more popular with the people.

Although Liu Bei's force is not high, his words are very prestigious.

"Archers prepare." Looking at the soldiers Lu Bu who were slowly approaching, Liu Bei roared. Hearing Liu Bei's roar, except for a small number of soldiers who did not move, most of the archers began to bend their bows and arrows.

"Put!" Liu Bei's roar came again, and a group of soldiers who were ready to send it on behalf of Liu Bei released their bows and arrows one after another with Liu Bei's roar. I saw one by one, the arrows that braved the cold light flew quickly towards Lu Bu's military formation, and the dense arrows smashed on Lu Bu's army like rain. Although Lu Bujun took precautions, they all put up shields. But even if the precautions were tight, there were still gaps between the shields, and the arrows followed those gaps and nailed straight to the person's body.

However, Liu Bei's manpower is leisurely after all, and the person who is hit by the arrow depends on the chance, so after a few rounds of arrow rain, the casualties of Lu Bujun's army are not very large. And also because after a few rounds of arrow rain, Lu Bu's vanguard troops had already arrived under the walls of Xiaopei City.

One after another, the ladders were erected on the walls of Xiaopei, and then the soldiers began to climb the ladders and began to attack the city. And Liu Beijun naturally would not easily let Lu Bujun climb the city wall. They threw the prepared rolling logs and stones and threw them at Lu Bujun, in addition, the hot oil that had already been burned was also splashed at Lu Bujun by all the soldiers, and the war entered the most tragic moment at the beginning.

Under the city wall, looking at the soldiers who were struggling to attack Xiaopei City with arrows, Chen Gong's heart was somewhat entangled. Although Xiao Pei's defense is precarious, it just can't be breached. Although Liu Bei's defense seems to be all loopholes, it is this seemingly very simple defense, and it is difficult for the warriors under his command to break through it in a short time.

From this, it can be seen that Liu Bei is definitely the dragon and phoenix among people. Looking at all the princes in the world, that one is not illustrious. And Liu Bei was able to take the vital Xuzhou just by virtue of an identity that he didn't know whether it was true or false, which is absolutely unbelievable to ordinary people. Moreover, after losing Xuzhou, Liu Bei did not give up on himself, but lived a decent life.

If you are someone else, if you suffer such a heavy blow, you will not be able to bear it nine times out of ten, but Liu Bei seems to have no effect at all. Not only did Chen Gong not see the slightest frustration, but he was even more excited.

Since he defected to Cao Cao and got control of Xiaopei, he has worked very hard every day, and he is very diligent and loves the people. It is precisely because of Liu Bei's actions that he has recovered the support of the entire Xiaopei masses. And this is what worries Chen Gong the most.

Liu Bei is a person who knows how to advance and retreat and knows how to forbear, although he usually greets him with a smile and does not have too many expressions on his face, but Chen Gong has read something from what he has done.

Although Liu Bei was very kind, even if Lu Bu raided his Xuzhou, he didn't change much. But Chen Gong felt that Liu Bei's eyes were very unkind. According to the drama, a dog that bites does not bark. But Liu Bei's danger is far greater than that of a dog, he is a real bloodthirsty wolf. There is a trace of blood in his forbearance, if he can really give him a chance to rise, he will definitely not let go of Lu Bu and himself. This is also the reason why Chen Gong wants to kill Liu Bei.

Liu Bei is so dangerous, Chen Gong naturally won't leave any worries for himself. At present, the strength of this wolf is still very weak, but after he really has the opportunity to rise, he will definitely die a miserable death under his minions.

Time flew by in Chen Gong's thoughts and the scramble on the city wall. In the blink of an eye, the sun was gradually setting towards the west, and the form above the city walls was still very scorching. Looking at the form that did not make half a point, Chen Gong shook his head, and then ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.

After collecting the troops, Chen Gong ordered people to count around, but the results that came back gave him a headache. In just two days, he lost nearly 1,000 people, not including several other city gates. However, the other gates must have suffered the same losses as their own.

Such a huge loss made Chen Gong a little difficult to accept. You must know that there are only more than 20,000 people on your side, and in just two days, you have lost one of the soldiers of nearly four people. How this does not make Chen Gong's heart ache.

"Gongtai, how about the loss?" Lu Bu saw that Chen Gong's face was gloomy, so Lu Bu asked. And hearing Lu Bu's words, Chen Gong's complexion became worse and worse.

"Alas~~" Chen Gong sighed lightly, and then said: "The losses are heavy, in just two days, nearly a thousand people have been lost. ”

Hearing Chen Gong's words, Lu Bu was naturally shocked, such a big loss made him feel a little heartbroken. More than 20,000 people are all elites under their command, and they don't lose some of them, which makes Lu Bu bleed.

"The lord doesn't need to worry, although I have suffered heavy losses, Liu Bei is also uncomfortable. As the saying goes, if you hurt the enemy for 1,000 and lose 800, we will lose nearly 1,000, and Liu Bei will lose at least 800. And how many soldiers can Liu Bei lose. Seeing that Lu Bu's face was not good, Chen Gong hurriedly spoke.

However, Chen Gong's words were true, although the siege cost Lu Bu a small number of soldiers, but Liu Bei's losses were also heavy. His own soldiers were insufficient, and the losses in the past two days made Liu Bei very uncomfortable. Although Liu Bei recruited many young and strong peasants, Liu Bei did not dare to let them climb the city wall to defend the city. The offensive of Lü Bu's army was so ferocious that letting untrained peasants defend the city would be tantamount to sending them to death. So in the past few days, Liu Bei has lost all the soldiers who have been on the battlefield.

In the past two days, Liu Bei's side also lost at least two or three thousand people, not including the wounded soldiers. This made Liu Bei a little difficult to accept. He had a total of more than 5,000 soldiers, and counting the young and strong peasants who had been recruited, he was only a man of 10,000 soldiers, and in just two days, he had suffered such a huge loss.

It's only been two days, and it's really hard for Liu Bei to think about whether he will have no soldiers if he has been around for a few more days. However, he suffered a lot of losses, but Lu Bu must not be comfortable, after all, he is the one who is besieging the city, and he can still rely on the benefits of the city, while Lu Bu can only use human life to pile up. However, even if Lu Bu suffered a lot of losses, Lu Bu had relatively sufficient troops after all, while his own forces were much different. In this regard, Liu Bei also made the worst plan in his heart.

On the third day, Lü Bu's army attacked again, but compared with the previous two days, Lü Bu's army's offensive was obviously weakened. And this is obviously a good phenomenon for Liu Bei. Lu Bu's offensive weakened, proving that the losses of Lu Bu in the first two days were somewhat unbearable.

In addition to the weakening of the offensive, the time of Lu Bu's garrison was also earlier than the previous two days. And this matter, Liu Bei was naturally very happy. Presumably, in a few days, Lu Bu's offensive will definitely weaken even more.

And Liu Bei's idea really came true, and Lu Bu's offensive in the past few days has really become weaker and weaker, which makes Liu Bei's heart more and more stable. In his own opinion, Lu Bu is already a little out of oil, and I am afraid that in a few days, Lu Bu will be a teacher.

But Liu Bei's thoughts were nothing more than his own wishful thinking, and in Lu Bu's barracks, Chen Gong was sinisterly smiling. I have been playing for several days in the past few days, and it is estimated that it will not be long before the net can be closed.

In the past few days, Chen Gong has been acting for Liu Bei, and in the past few days, his offensive has become weaker and weaker, just to show Liu Bei, so that Liu Bei realizes that he has suffered heavy casualties, and he will not fight as fiercely as before. But all of this is a fake. And the purpose of Chen Gong to do all this is to make Liu Bei fooled, thinking that he is powerless to attack again, and when Liu Bei is conscious of contempt, he will give him a head-on blow, and when the time comes, Xiao Peiyan will not be broken.

And judging from the direction of things, his intentions have generally been completed. In the past few days, Liu Bei's vigilance has really weakened more and more. I'm afraid it won't take a few more days, and when Liu Bei doesn't have the slightest sense of prevention, that will be the time to annihilate Liu Bei in one fell swoop.

"Gongtai, how are things going?" Lu Bu summoned Chen Gong and asked. In the past few days, in order to prepare for Chen Gong's plan, Lu Bu's army has lost a lot of soldiers, if Chen Gong's plan cannot be successful, then he really knows that he can only return in vain, this Lu Bu absolutely cannot accept.

In order to crusade against Liu Bei, Lu Bu has made sufficient preparations, if this matter ends in failure, then he will not have the slightest face. I will definitely receive the shame of the princes of the world. This Lu Bu will definitely not let him happen.
