Xiahoudun never expected that Guan Yu would come so quickly, almost after he got out, the moment he was distracted, he had already turned his horse's head and chased after him.

Especially Guan Yu's shout, in such a night shrouded and the firelight was shrouded, falling on the ears of a group of soldiers who couldn't see the battle between the two clearly, the first reaction must be: Ah, the boss fled?

Even if Xiahoudun immediately turned around at this time and faced Guan Yu again, or refuted it loudly, it would be difficult to reverse the bad impact of Guan Yu's shout on the morale of his own soldiers.

As soon as he thought of this, Xiahou was so angry that his whole body trembled, and he caught a glimpse of his own soldiers in front of him, who were already unstable and loose, and immediately gave up the idea of risking and turning around to fight again, and really beat his horse and galloped.

As soon as he fled, the hundreds of soldiers who had finally gathered together immediately dispersed and fled.

Everywhere in the camp, at this time it was already a mess, the autumn was dry and dry, and the fire that Guan Yu led the army to set in the southeast corner of the camp had spread along the way, and it was too late to save it.

"Xiahoudun, where to escape!"

Guan Yu's arrogant roar, Xiahou who had been closely chasing the horse and galloping, the two of them were just following their own soldiers, only they had war horses to ride, and the other soldiers were all foot soldiers, running away, or chasing and killing, they could only rely on their own legs.

Xiahoudun was quite distressed, but fortunately, at this time, the moon had disappeared in the western sky, and the sky was dark, he purely relied on his feelings, and galloped along the avenue, and the Guan Yu people behind him were the same, and the torches they were carrying had already been blown out by the oncoming wind when they were chasing wildly.

I don't know how long it took, Xiahoudun could hear the sound of horses' hooves behind him getting farther and farther away, and he knew that Guan Yu must have given up the pursuit, and at this time, he was greatly relieved.

The sky was getting brighter, and Xiahou led people around to gather the remnants of the army. When he returned to the camp, he looked at the mess in front of him, he was angry, and gritted his teeth and roared: "Guan Yu! I'm going to kill you! ”

Guan Yu didn't hear this roar at all, he had already led the victorious army back to Gaotang, passed the order, sent scouts, and washed himself and went to bed to make up for sleep.

Wait for Guan Yu to wake up. The military information detected by the scouts also began to flow like water.

Xiahoudun gathered the remnants of the army, continued to hold at the ferry, rebuilt the camp and the ferry, and the enemy troops on the opposite bank had already arrived. Looking at the banner from afar, the commander should be Xiahou Yuan. The troops led by him were far stronger than the troops of the vanguard general Xiahoudun.

Guan Yu knows. The time has come for him to lead his army to evacuate Gaotang and return to the plains.

But he couldn't just walk away, the intention was too obvious, just after a moment of silence, he prepared the military situation, and sent people to the plains overnight. He led the army to continue to guard Gaotang and left at an opportune time.

In the afternoon of the next day, Tanma reported that Xiahou Dun, the vanguard general of the Cao army, led an army of 5,000. Killing towards Gao Tang with a fierce momentum.

Guan Yuran was not afraid, and only led dozens of soldiers out of the city to greet him.

Cao Jun is encamping, Xiahoudun this time learned to be obedient, around the camp, laid a large number of horses, deer firewood and iron thorns, to prevent Guan Yu from leading the army to steal the camp again.

When the enemies saw each other, their eyes were red, Xiahoudun hated Guan Yu so much now, and he also only led more than 100 personal soldiers to confront Guan Yu outside the camp.

Guan Yu urged the horse forward, hahadaxiao, stroked the beautiful bun under the chin with his left hand, pointed at Xiahoudun with a big knife, and asked: "This is the plain, you are waiting for the brazen arson, there is no royal law in your eyes!" ”

Xiahou replied hatefully: "Hmph, Guan Yu, if you know each other, hurry up and get off your horse and kneel down, otherwise, the day the city is broken, it will be your death!" ”

"Humph!" Guan Yu snorted coldly, and between him and Xiahou Xuan, he didn't speculate for more than half a sentence, and replied proudly: "Okay, Guan is waiting for you to wait for the rebellious ministers and thieves!" ”

After speaking, Guan Yu turned his horse and walked, and before leaving, he didn't even look at Xiahou Dun, and his arrogance was undoubtedly revealed.

Xiahoudun stared at Guan Yu's distant back, his snort was hot, and his eyes seemed to be about to breathe fire, but he really wanted him to come forward to challenge, he still knew in his heart that he couldn't kill Guan Yu alone, and he would probably be at a disadvantage.

There was nothing to say all night, the next day Xiahoudun did not move, Guan Yu did not lead the army to fight, on the afternoon of the third day, Xiahoudun sent scouts, found that the situation in Gaotang City was a little wrong, Xiahoudun got the report, has not led the army to the city, there is a group of people in the city ushered in, it is the local officials of Gaotang.

Knowing the details, Xiahoudun couldn't help but be angry, it turned out that these local officials, knowing that Guan Yu had led the army to evacuate, hurriedly discussed, and then went out of the city to surrender. According to their descriptions, Guan Yu should have quietly withdrawn on the night of the arrival of Xiahoudun's army.

Xiahoudun's capture of Gaotang was very important to Liu Dai's army.

Liu Dai personally led the army, from the plain county of Zhu'a to attack the city of Jinan, because Cao Cao's army was slow, Gao Tang has been in the hands of Guan Yu, so he was worried that the back road of the army would be cut off, so he stayed in Licheng, and did not dare to attack Dongpingling, the capital of Jinan.

Therefore, in terms of urging Cao Cao's army, Liu Dai was more active than anyone else, and even the vanguard general Xiahoudun could feel the pressure from Liu Dai.

But he took Gaotang, which was the result of Guan Yu's voluntary abandonment, such a strange move, he was puzzled, Zuihou could only be stationed in Gaotang, waiting for the follow-up Cao Cao to lead the army.

What he didn't know was that at this time, Guan Yu had already led his army along the big river, made a big circle, crossed the big river at a ferry between the plains, and rushed back to the plain.

Liu Bei's army in the plain, with Zhang Fei as the vanguard, led the army to set off, detoured to Jizhou, and rushed to Puyang, Dongjun, opening the prelude to the strategic transfer of Liu Bei's army.

From the plain to Puyang, if according to the usual way of walking, there are five hundred miles away, now Liu Bei led the army to detour through Jizhou, the road will be even farther, along the way, need to pass through Jizhou Qinghe and Wei County, such a large-scale march, it is impossible not to attract the attention of Yuan Shao of Jizhou.

For this reason, Liu Bei sent Cui Jun as an envoy in advance to meet Yuan Shao, tell his grievances, and obtain Yuan Shao's understanding.

Yuan Shao was rejecting the horse water with Gongsun Chan of Youzhou at this time, although in the battle of Hutuoshui, Gongsun Chan suffered heavy losses, and Bai Ma Yicong was almost wiped out, even Zhao Yun, the commander of Bai Ma Yicong, was nowhere to be found, but Gongsun Chan had been entrenched in Youzhou for many years, and after accepting the shili left by his mentor Lu Zhi and Sima Liu Yu in Youzhou, it should not be underestimated.

On the way back to Youzhou. Gongsun Zhan also won a few small battles, but he failed to reverse the overall situation, and the Jizhou territory he captured earlier was almost lost, thanks to the reinforcements from Youzhou, he was able to resume the confrontation with Yuan Shao's army in the area of Jumashui.

He and Yuan Shao didn't know at this time that the big Sima Liu Yu was actually under Liu Bei's account, but no one knew the inside story.

Liu Dai united with his younger brother Yuan Shu. Attacking Xuzhou Tao Qian and Qingzhou Kong Rong, Yuan Shao was very angry about this, but unfortunately he was still deeply involved in the war with Gongsun Zhan, and he couldn't pull out, otherwise. How could he allow Liu Dai to act so recklessly.

Therefore, Liu Bei's request for borrowing was only a little discussed. The counsellors under the tent are unanimous. Regardless of whether Liu Bei's attack on Puyang can be successful, at least, it can cause some trouble for Liu Dai and Cao Cao.

And once Cao Cao led his army into Jizhou, Yuan Shao was already full of anger, waiting to find a place to vent.

The battle situation in the Kanto region was because of Liu Bei's move. And in the confusion, the siege of Guanzhong has lasted for more than half a month, and it is quiet every day.

When Xu Shu learned that Xiliang Ma Teng and Han Sui each sent 1,500 cavalry. Rushing to the aid of Huangfu Song, at this time was also trapped in Chang'an City, he immediately had an idea, and discussed with Lu Bu, that is, set a strategy, at the beginning of the daily Lu Bu led the elite cavalry outside Chang'an City to fight, named Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun out of the city, in a casual mention of Ma Chao, provoked Ma Chao to repeatedly ask for battle.

This is good, in the past ten days, Lu Bu has been fighting every now and then, mentioning Ma Chao every time, which made Ma Chao so angry that he jumped like thunder, but Huangfu Song just didn't let go and didn't allow him to fight.

The sunset was full of sky, shining like a brocade, Lu Bu led the army to fight outside the city for a whole afternoon, no matter how he scolded, how the soldiers challenged, there was no movement in Chang'an City, he had to be disappointed again to pack up his subordinates, zuihou shouted and scolded, ready to return to the camp.

After walking a few steps, the sound of horses' hooves behind him sounded, Lu Bu turned his head to look, and couldn't help laughing, only to see the young general Ma Chao coming out of the city alone, galloping on the horse, while shouting: "Lu Bu is rampant!" ”

Lu Bu turned his horse around, hahadaxiao, and shouted to Ma Chao: "Okay, there is a kind, dare to go out of the city single-handedly to face the battle, but it is much stronger than Huangfu Song hiding in the turtle shell." ”

Having said that, Lu Bu didn't have the slightest intention of stepping forward to fight with Ma Chao, Ma Chaole stopped fighting the horse, raised his spear, and said angrily: "Lu Bu, don't you want to fight with me, don't you come forward and die!" ”

Lu Bu was calm and relaxed, not stimulated by Ma Chao at all, he rode his horse forward slowly, and said: "I'm sorry, Uncle Ben wants to go back to the camp today to meet the beauty, but I don't have time to take care of you, let's come back tomorrow." ”

Ma Chao was furious, wow wow screamed, regardless of the horse and spear, straight to Lu Bu.

But after a few steps, there was a swishing sound in the air, like a crackling leather whip thrown in the hand of the imp, and three cold lightning flashed over.

Ma Chao shouted, the spear flew, knocking the three feather arrows away, and there were some doubts in his heart, although the strength of these three feather arrows was not bad, but compared with Lu Bu's strength, there was a clear gap.

Just as he was changing his mind, Lu Bu's loud shout seemed to explode in his ears: "Look at the arrow!" ”

A little cold light struck again, like lightning, Ma Chao had already prepared, and with a wave of his spear, he knocked it away, but this time, the strength of a small feather arrow was so great that he was secretly frightened.

Dozens of steps away in front of him, Lu Bu was on the red rabbit horse, opening his bow like a full moon, holding three feather arrows in his hand, leading but not firing, Ma Chao's heart was cold, and without thinking, he stopped the war horse and glared at Lu Bu angrily.

"Uncle is not free today, Ma Chao, if you are not interested, these three arrows will shoot your war horse!"

Ma Chao was extremely angry, speechless for a while, but he didn't dare to urge the horse to step forward again, with just Lu Bu an arrow, if the three arrows were shot at his war horse, he was not sure that he could save it.

Lu Bu hahadaxiao, put away the big bow, and said to Ma Chao proudly: "You want to fight, come back tomorrow, wait for me to ask Brother Shoucheng!" ”

In the sound of hahadaxiao, Lu Bu pulled the horse away, Ma Chao was stunned in place, and after half a sound, he yelled at Lu Bu's back: "Lu Bu, you bastard!" ”

As soon as the words fell, in the distance, Lu Bu's hearty laughter was heard in the wind, and there were vague words: "Yes, the bastard has to add three levels, what, do you have an opinion?!" (To be continued......)
