"Peng!" A shield slammed into the head of a Xuzhou soldier.

The shield that had been slashed countless times in the battle had cracks, and the hard shield collided with the skull of the Xuzhou soldier, and the skull became the last straw that overwhelmed the camel.

The soldier of Cao Jun, who waved his shield and smashed it into the head of the Xuzhou soldier, only felt that his arm was numb, and the shield in his hand split into two pieces and fell to the ground.

The Xuzhou soldiers, who were knocked down by his shield, rolled their eyes, and their skulls gushed with blood gushing out, and they collapsed to the ground softly.

The shield split into two pieces, and the Cao soldier did not stand up to the movement of his hand, holding his long sword, which had been slashed to the opening, and stabbed it towards the chest of another Xuzhou soldier.

The Xuzhou army led by Lu Bu engaged the Cao army under the command of Li Dian, and as soon as the two sides fought together, the soldiers of the Cao army were like hungry wolves, and they pounced on the Xuzhou army without their lives.

Although it has a certain advantage in numbers and has also been mobilized, in front of the crazy Cao army, the Xuzhou army is like a group of goats that have encountered wolves, and can only barely resist with their horns.

Wielding Fang Tian's halberd, Lu Bu traveled in and around the Cao army, as if he was in a no-man's land, but the morale of the soldiers of the Xuzhou army beside him was gradually crushed by the Cao army.

Many soldiers of the Xuzhou Army have even dropped their weapons and fled outside the battlefield with their heads in their hands.

Fleeing is like a plague that spreads rapidly among the army, and if someone flees first, more will follow.

There are fewer and fewer Xuzhou troops who can barely muster up the courage to fight, and the Xuzhou army that escaped is like a tide, running for their lives in the direction they came.

On the battlefield where countless dead bodies were already lying, the fierce fighting between the two sides was nearing the end.

Lu Bu, who wanted to rush to Li Dian and take off his head, saw that the general trend was gone, and he had to turn around his horse and gallop towards Xuzhou with the soldiers.

Lu Bu's army finally retreated, leading the soldiers to fight bloodily, and Li Dian, who was already covered in blood, breathed a long sigh of relief.

During the battle, he had already discovered that Lu Bu intended to charge his side, but every time Lu Bu rushed closer, many soldiers would block Lu Bu's way, so that Lu Bu could not get close to him.

Lu Bu is famous for his martial arts and bravery, and Li Dian knows that if he fights alone, don't say that he is only Li Dian, even if there are three or five more, I am afraid he will not be Lu Bu's opponent.

In this battle, Cao Jun's victory was that there was no way to retreat at all, and for Cao Jun, retreating was equivalent to death!

In order to survive, every soldier fought with all his might to fight the Xuzhou army.

However, the Xuzhou army did not have such concerns, they failed, and they could return to Xuzhou to reorganize the army and fight again.

The different pressures on the soldiers on both sides also determine the difference in their bravery on the battlefield.

After leading the soldiers to chase the fleeing Xuzhou army, and after killing many Xuzhou troops along the way, Li Dian raised his spear high and shouted to the soldiers who were chasing the enemy: "Poor Kou Mo chase!" ”

Li Dian ordered the pursuit to be stopped, and fought desperately, and the soldiers of the Cao army, who were already out of breath, stopped one after another, and looked at the Xuzhou army that was gradually moving away, many of them sat on the ground depressed because they were too tired.

At this time, on the city wall of Xiaopei, Wei Xu, who was guarding the city, found that the banner of Lu Bujun's army outside the city had gone away, and looked out of the city in amazement, his face full of gloom.

"General!" Wei Xu looked out of the city with a dejected expression, and a junior colonel behind him whispered, "Wen Hou seems to have been defeated!" ”

"Shut up!" The mood was bore, and Xiao Xiaoxiao's words made Wei Xu feel even more upset, he turned around abruptly and slapped Xiao Xiao in the face.

was slapped by Wei Xu, Xiao Xiao covered his face, but he didn't dare to continue talking.

Seeing that his companion was beaten, another junior colonel standing behind Wei Xu came up and whispered to Wei Xu: "The general is angry, it is a foregone conclusion that Wen Hou will withdraw the army, and the general should make plans as soon as possible." ”

"The city is surrounded like an iron bucket, how to plan?" Wei Xu turned his head suddenly, glared at the junior colonel who spoke, and asked with a depressed heart.

"Cao's army is from the south, and the army is also arrayed in the south!" Seeing that Wei Xu's anger was much less, the little colonel hurriedly said to Wei Xu: "The general can be killed from the north gate, and I will escort the general all the way back to Xuzhou." Wen waited for the new defeat, even if the general lost Xiao Pei, he had nothing to say! ”

After listening to the words of this little school, Wei Xu's brows furrowed slightly, and he pondered for a moment before he said to the little school with some hesitation: "If you lose Xiaopei, Xuzhou will become a lonely city......

"Wen Hou has been defeated, could it be that General Fei is still waiting for reinforcements?" Before Wei Xu's words were finished, the junior colonel said to him: "The general is trapped in this city, and the Cao army will also break through the city sooner or later." If you want to leave by then, I'm afraid it's too late! ”

After listening to Xiao Xiaoxiao's words, Wei Xu's eyes suddenly opened, and he said to the Xiao Xiaoxiao: "If I hadn't listened to you, I would have almost lost my life!" ”

"Pass the order!" Having already decided to withdraw, Wei Xu whispered to the soldiers behind him: "Draw two thousand soldiers and horses, go out of the city with a certain person to kill the enemy, and the rest of the people will guard the city!" ”

The soldiers who were listening to Wei Xu and Xiao Xiao Xiao on the side already understood that Wei Xu was going to escape, but if Xiao Peicheng was unguarded, I am afraid that before he had time to escape from the city, Cao Jun would have already entered the city, and he wanted to leave part of the Cao army in the city to block him behind him.

"No!" Although he knew it in his heart, the pro-soldier didn't dare to disobey Wei Xu's intentions, and hurriedly responded and conveyed Wei Xu's order.

The reinforcements from outside the city have been withdrawn, and the defenders at the head of the city are watching.

At this time, Wei Xu suddenly issued an order to leave people to defend the city, and he was going to lead the army out of the city to kill the enemy, and the soldiers at the head of the city immediately felt a little suspicious.

However, although the soldiers were suspicious in their hearts, no one stood up to question Wei Xu.

After all, Wei Xu is the main general, and no one dares to disobey his orders.

The two thousand selected elites quickly assembled in the city, and when the two thousand soldiers and horses were assembled, Wei Xu, accompanied by the little colonel who gave him the idea, went down the city wall.

In front of the two thousand Xuzhou troops who thought they were going to go out of the city to fight with the Cao army, and had no hope of surviving at all, Wei Xu didn't say anything superfluous, but just beckoned to the two thousand people and shouted to them: "Go!" ”

The soldiers who were temporarily summoned, thinking in their hearts that going out of the city was to send them to death, followed behind Wei Xu, and their faces were full of sorrow, as if they wanted to cry for themselves before they died.

Leading the two thousand soldiers, Wei Xu did not give them any explanation.

When he arrived at the north gate of the city, Wei Xu pointed to the soldiers guarding the city gate and said, "Open the city gate, I will go out of the city to fight with Cao's army!" ”

Knowing that Wei Xu was going out of the city to fight with Cao's army, the soldiers guarding the city gate only thought that he had no hope for the battle situation, and wanted to go to seek death, but they did not dare to stop him, and hurriedly opened the city gate.

As soon as he led 2,000 soldiers out of the city, Wei Xu did not hesitate at all, and immediately ordered the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army who followed him out of the city to attack the nearby Cao army.

As the junior colonel said, the Cao army led by Xiahoudun and Li Dian came from Huainan in the south, and the main siege direction of the army was also south.

He didn't expect Wei Xu to come out from the north of the city gate, and Xiahoudun only arranged a small number of soldiers and horses in the north of the city.

Wei Xu led 2,000 Xuzhou troops to rush towards the Cao army blocking the north gate, and actually scattered the Cao army.

The defenders at the head of the city watched the battle outside the city, and before they had time to applaud Wei Xu, a scene appeared that they would never dare to believe.

Rushing away the Cao army in the north of the city, Wei Xu didn't have the idea of turning back into the city at all, and led the team that went out of the city straight in the direction of Xuzhou.

Wei Xu abandoned the city and fled, and Xiao Pei instantly became a city completely incapable of resisting Cao's army.

Seeing Wei Xu leaving, the Xuzhou army in the city had to open the city gate to welcome Cao's army into the city in order to survive.

It has been besieged outside the city for several days, the military rations of the Cao army are no longer enough, and the soldiers can only eat half a full every day, and when they enter the city, the soldiers of the Cao army who are cold and hungry are like a group of beasts that have been released from the cage, Xiahoudun and Li Dian tried their best to stop it, but they still failed to stop them from plundering the city.

Perhaps because of the resentment that accumulated in his heart during the siege of the city, after entering the city, the officers and soldiers of the Cao army did not wait for the orders of Xiahoudun or Li Dian to gather those surrendered Xuzhou troops to slaughter in one place.

There were even Cao army soldiers who took pleasure in slaughtering the Xuzhou army that had surrendered, and the Xuzhou army that stayed in the city was killed in just over an hour.

By the time Xiahoudun and Li Dian came to stop it, there was no one left in the Xuzhou army in the city, and even the civilian men were killed.

After the city of Xiaopei was breached, the Cao army, which had lost control, caused a massacre in the city that was not very large, but not very small.

If it weren't for Xiahoudun and Li Dian doing everything they could to control the situation, I'm afraid that Xiaopeicheng would become a dead city in two or three days.

The city was littered with the blood of the slaughtered civilians, and the cries of women and children could be heard from almost every house passing through the doors.

It took a lot of effort to control the situation Xiahoudun and Li Dian, and rode on the bluestone paved streets, listening to the cries from the houses on both sides of the road, Li Dian couldn't help but sigh and shake his head.

Although Xiahoudun was not like Li Dian, he was also bored in his heart.

"The soldiers are so nonsense, Cao Gong will definitely lose the hearts of the people in Xuzhou in the future!" While marching, Xiahoudun frowned and asked Li Dian, "How does Man Cheng think this matter should be handled?" ”

"It's been a long time since I've been depressed!" Although he was very dissatisfied with the random and indiscriminate killing of Cao Jun's soldiers, Li Dian still said to Xiahoudun: "The law does not blame the public, and the two of us can't kill all the soldiers who participated in disturbing Xiaopei!" ”
