Chapter 54: The Battle of Xiapi, the End of Heroes!
Lu Bu took Chen Gong out of the siege and joined Gao Shun near Xiao Pei, who could no longer hold on, so he had to go down with the remnants of the army.
"Lord, Chen Gong is incompetent, he has fallen for Cao Cao's treacherous scheme, please punish the lord!"
"Gongtai?" Lu Bu looked at Chen Gong, shook his head, and continued to retreat to Picheng, Chen Gong knew that Lu Bu's confidence in him had been shaken, since following Lu Bu, Chen Gong had few failures, but this time the failure almost cost Lu Bu's family money.
"Lord, Chen Gong can't let you dominate the world, you can only try to save your life!" Chen Gong looked at the sky, muttered to himself, flicked his whip, and followed Lu Bu.
"Hahahaha, Fengxiao, Gongda, Lu Bu retreated to Xiapi, the battle of the trapped beasts, our army will take advantage of the victory to pursue, and we will be able to take Xuzhou!" After taking Xuzhou, I will make meritorious contributions to Fengxiao and Gongda! β
"Thank you, my lord!"
"Lord, although Lu Bu was defeated, our army also lost a lot of food and grass! If we can't capture Xiapi in time, if Lu Bu can breathe, it will be difficult for our army to go to Xuzhou, please call General Cao Ren back and besiege Xiapi together! Man Zhong arched his hand and suggested that Cao Cao go all out to besiege Xiapi.
Cao Cao nodded and said, "What Berning said is reasonable, Rui'er? You're in charge of the paperwork! β
"Yes, my lord!" Alas? Do you want to write paperwork again? It's not easy to be a scribe, start from the basics, paperwork is the basic skill!
Lu Rui threw away the bamboo slips, stretched his waist, and finally completed the statistics of military rations and casualties, being a prison soldier is not an easy job, you have to take a good rest!
Lu Rui was about to rest when there was a sudden commotion outside.
"Master Hou!"
"Evil? What's so noisy out there? β
"Master Hou, General Cao is back, and he has returned defeated, and Cao Cheng has dealt with General Cao Ren in military law!"
"What? The middle father disposed of Uncle Cao Ren? Lu Rui hurriedly ran out of the camp and headed for the school grounds.
"Fifteen!"
"Sixteen!"
When Lu Rui dared to go to the school field, Cao Ren was already peeling his flesh and flesh, and there was blood on his buttocks, Lu Rui asked: "Evil, how many military horses has Uncle Cao Ren lost?" β
"It doesn't seem like there are many, I saw a lot of people returning to the barracks just now!"
"One thousand wounded, five hundred dead, and the rest of the sergeants have returned safely!" Guo Jia came to the back of Lu Rui and said lightly.
"This?" When Lu Rui heard Guo Jia's words, he was stunned, turned his head, looked at Guo Jia with puzzled eyes and asked, "Master?" Although Uncle Cao Ren was defeated, he kept most of the soldiers, and he also had to be punished heavily? "Xiahou Bo Wangpo was defeated, Lao Cao didn't make a ruthless move, and Cao Ren was beaten with a military stick?
"Rui'er, our army's military rations have been consumed a lot in the Battle of Xiaopei, if we can't capture Xiapi within a year, our army will retreat, General Cao Ren, it's just that the lord has received a military staff in order to boost morale!"
When Lu Rui heard this, he suddenly realized that Cao Ren had made a substitute for the dead ghost, and Cao Cao wanted to use this to motivate the soldiers and attack Xiapi! Sure enough, the next day, Cao Cao delivered a passionate pre-war mobilization on the school field, and with Cao Ren's model, the soldiers of the Cao army were all brave and brave, surging down like a tide!
Lu Bu, holding the Fang Tian Painting Halberd, looked at the Cao Jun coming from all directions on the upper floor of Xiapi City, smiled, held Fang Tian's Painting Halberd tightly, and started the months-long Xiapi offensive and defensive battle!
Black smoke fills the entire Xiapi, today is the second month that the Cao army has besieged Xiapi, the Cao army has launched an attack every three days, Lu Bu's face has been blackened, only two rows of teeth are exposed, looking at Cao Ying not far away, Lu Bu licked his mouth, showing a worried look for the first time!
"Lord, the envoy of Yuan Shu has already replied, and if our army sends Miss to Huainan, he will send troops to rescue, please make a clear decision!" Chen Gong reported to Lu Bu tiredly.
"Okay, Gongtai, you stay and defend the city, I will go out with an elite raid at night and send my daughter to Huainan!"
"Yes, my lord!"
"Does the husband really want to send his daughter to Huainan?" With tears in his eyes, Yan asked Lu Bu with tears in his eyes.
"Madam, now that the Cao army is besieging the city, our army is in danger, I'm afraid that this time I can't escape, the fourth and third dukes of the Yuan family have great power in Huainan, even if Yuan Shu is eliminated by the princes, his people can be preserved. I, Lu Bu, was born in a poor family, and in order to leave a trace of blood, this is the only way! β
Yan looked at Lu Bu, Lu Bu also had tears in his eyes, and he was reluctant to give up his daughter, but? Now, I'm afraid this is the only way to save my daughter!
Yan nodded, then put on Lu Bu's battle armor and said, "General be careful, the concubine is here to cook a meal for the general, send her daughter away, and the general will come back for a meal!" β
Lu Bu showed a comforting smile, took Fang Tian's halberd, and walked out with his own soldiers.
"Rui'er, are you still used to this inspection?"
Outside the city of Xiapi, Cao Cao and Guo Jia took Lu Rui to inspect the position, and those besieging the city must do their homework to inspect the position to prevent the enemy from breaking out of the encirclement at night.
"Hehe, middle father, it feels okay!" This is the first time Lu Rui has inspected the position of the siege, and he is very excited, this marquis likes this work, commanding people, moving here, fighting there, no need to do specific things, this is the military life that Lu Rui yearns for! Complicated specific work? That's training newcomers, Lu Rui is not a newcomer, he is an old man with more than 2,000 years of knowledge!
"My lord! The enemy troops in Xiapi City suddenly attacked, and Lu Bu covered a carriage and headed south! β
"What? Fengxiao, let's go and have a look! The three of them rode fast horses and soon arrived at the south gate, at which time Lu Bu was taking the lead, covering a carriage and trying to break out of the encirclement.
"Lord, Lu Bu wants to cover this carriage to break out of the encirclement of our army!"
"Yes, order someone to release arrows to stop the carriage from breaking out of the encirclement!"
"Slow!"
Cao Cao and Guo Jia were stunned for a moment, and looked at Lu Rui, slow? What do you mean?
"Middle Father, there should be a very important person in this carriage to Lu Bu, if our army can capture him alive, maybe Lu Bu will be able to succumb!" Lu Rui saw Lu Bu escorting his daughter out of the encirclement, and suddenly wanted to try, if he caught Lu Bu's family? Will Lu Bu surrender? After all, Lu Bu is one of the princes with the most important family affection in the Three Kingdoms!
"Oh?" Cao Cao rolled his eyes, it would be best if Lu Bu could give in, and if he didn't, he would have an extra chip in his hand. Thinking of this, Cao Cao said: "Zhongkang, pass the order, let Zixiao lead people to surround him, be careful not to hurt the people in the carriage!" β
"No! Lord! Xu Chu clenched his fists and left.
"Get out of the way!" After Lu Bu used Fang Tian's halberd to kill a few small soldiers, he restrained the red rabbit horse, and then looked around, Cao Jun actually didn't let out arrows to stop it, but a large number of sergeants approached the carriage!
"Not good!" Lu Bu reacted that Cao Jun's target was the carriage, and it was to capture the people in the carriage alive, Lu Bu shouted loudly and rushed to the carriage with his own soldiers.
"The whole army retreats to the city!"
After Lu Bu personally made the palace, the carriage returned to the city safely. Lu Rui didn't know that his butterfly effect had affected his life in the Three Kingdoms, and the things related to Lu Bu in the back made Lu Rui cry and laugh!
It has been a month since he defeated LΓΌ Bu to break through, and Cao Cao still can't attack Xiapi, and LΓΌ Bu also relies on the strength of Xiapi's city to defend the last city in Xuzhou. Chen Deng had pacified Guangling and came to Xiapi with soldiers and horses to reinforce Cao Cao.
Cao Cao sat on the main seat, exhaled, and suddenly formed a mist flower in front of his face. It has been a few months since the attack on Xuzhou, and now it is winter, and he has not yet won, if he can't capture Xiapi before the New Year, the army will be unstable!
"Ladies and gentlemen, our army has besieged Xiapi for many days, and the battle of Lu Bu's trapped beasts has taken a long time, I don't know who can come up with a strategy to break the enemy for this company?"
Xun You stood up, arched his hand and said: "Lord, my subordinates have observed Xiapi for many days, Xiapi City is high and strong, and there are internal and external cities, our army lacks siege equipment, so it is not suitable to attack." The subordinates think that our army can use Surabaya! β
"What does Gongda mean to dig up Surabaya? Flooded Pi? β
"Exactly, my lord! Although this is not a clever plan, it can break the last line of defense of Lu Bu's army! β
"Bonghyo thinks the same?"
"Lord, my subordinates seconded Gongda's suggestion!"
"Yuan Long is from Xuzhou? Do you agree with this plan? β
"Yuan Long thinks that this plan is the only way to defeat Lu Bu quickly, please make a decision to Duke Cao!"
Even Chen Deng agreed, and Cao Cao immediately made up his mind and said, "Okay, just follow the plan of Gongda!" Flood Pi with Surabaya water! β
Soon, Cao Cao sent an army to dig up Surabaya and flood it!
"It's finally done! General Song, shall we drink a little wine? β
"General Hou? But is the lord? β
"Whatever, I made this merit, and the lord punished me?"
"General Song, General Hou is right, this ghost place in Xiapi? If you don't drink alcohol, how can you survive the winter? "After being soaked in water, Xiapi became cold and damp, do you think about it, if there is water in the house, what is the effect in the winter?
Hearing the persuasion of the two, Song Xian didn't care about anything, and drank with the two.
"Song Xian, Hou Cheng, Wei Xu, what are you doing?" Lu Bu inspected here and saw the three of them drinking, and he was immediately furious, he had come down to ban alcohol in order to resist Cao Jun, and the three of them dared to ignore it?
Hou Cheng immediately clenched his fists and said: "My lord, my subordinates have just discovered Liu Bei's secret agents in the city, trying to seize fifty horses from our army to serve Liu Bei, and now I have corrected the law, and I just happened to drink with the two brothers!" Hou Cheng looked at Lu Bu with a smile, he has made a meritorious service, he must be rewarded!
"Bastard, just a small merit, just ask for merit in front of General Ben? Come on, give me twenty sticks for each! β
"Lord, spare your life, spare your life!"
"Drag it off!" Lu Bu gave the order without hesitation, and soon after, he heard the screams of the three people.
"General Hou? Lu Bu is too ruthless! β
"Hmph, Lu Bu, we are all subordinates who have followed you for many years, and now we are doing this to us?"
"General Wei, General Song? Now that Cao's army is powerful, Lu Bu treats us like this? Why not turn against Lu Bu? β
"Obey General Hou Cheng's orders!"
In Hou Cheng's room, Hou Cheng, Wei Xu, and Song Xian were discussing how to surrender Cao Cao, and Lu Bu, who was the first in the world in terms of force, was preparing to go to the end of his life! (I'm busy with work today, so I'm sorry to update it so late, readers!) οΌ
