"Hurry back and report to Your Majesty, our army has won a great victory, has completely routed the enemy, and captured all the enemy's baggage! Tens of thousands of enemy troops were captured! ”

The news of Yuan Shujun's victory reached Shouchun City, and the court of Shouchun was filled with excitement and jubilation!

"Your Majesty is blessed with all the heavens, and you have won the favor of the heavens, so you can destroy the strong enemy so smoothly!"

"After this battle, presumably the majesty of my Zhong Dynasty, no thief dares to invade and covet it!"

The ministers of the court and the central government were excitedly talking and praising their masters. Although Yuan Shu, the www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion, was also very proud, but he was not completely carried away by the victory, he asked the messenger who came back: "By the way, what are the three of Liu Bei, Cao Cao and Lu Bu?" Did the army catch all three? ”

The messenger shook his head and said, "No, these three people have escaped by them, and I heard that now they have fled to Xuzhou City with the defeated army!" ”

"These three are hateful! I have not yet crusaded against them, but they have come to me in a gang to find trouble, and I am not happy to kill them. Moreover, these three people still have some forces in Xuzhou and Yanzhou, if they don't take advantage of this great opportunity to completely eliminate them, sooner or later they will have to raise tigers for trouble! ”

"What does Your Majesty mean?" The messenger asked, looking at Yuan Shu with his hands folded.

"Spread my will, order Zhang Xun, immediately command the army, attack Xuzhou City, must capture it within five days! Capture Cao Cao, Lü Bu and Liu Bei, and I will use their blood to pay tribute to the temple of my Zhong Dynasty! ”

"However, Your Majesty, now the heavy rain is pouring, which is very unfavorable for the movement of the army, especially the baggage carts transporting grain and grass, which will fall into the mud if they can't go far now, if the army wants to attack Xuzhou City within five days, it will not only make the army tired, but also the transportation of food and equipment may not be good."

This messenger is also a general in the army, and he is very familiar with the current situation of the army, and explained to Yuan Shu.

But when Yuan Shu heard his words, he was very angry, his eyes widened, and he shouted angrily: "What? Isn't what I say a holy decree? Are you trying to deceive you? ”

Yuan Shu's questioning made the messenger so frightened that the sweat on his forehead continued to flow, and his face turned blue all of a sudden.

"Your Majesty, that's not what I meant! I just ......."

"Just what?! Now is the best time to completely destroy the enemy's defeat, and time is running out! You can go back and tell Zhang Xun my order immediately! ”

"Yes, yes, yes." The messenger nodded hastily and withdrew.

When he walked out of the main hall of Shouchun City, the messenger felt a chill behind him, and the fright just now made his frightened back wet with cold sweat!

"The lord is becoming more and more domineering now." The messenger secretly thought in his heart that he remembered that Yuan Shu was not so arbitrary and arbitrary before, so now he couldn't even listen to a word.

After Yuan Shu's order was conveyed to Zhang Xun, although Zhang Xun had some scruples and reluctance, soon, with the messenger, and the overseers sent by Yuan Shu, urged him to send troops all day long.

There was no way, Zhang Xun had to hurriedly order his troops and horses, bring enough dry food for each person to eat for five days, and quickly advance in the direction of Xuzhou.

On the way to the march, Yuan Shujun could still see the baggage and weapons and equipment discarded by the three coalition forces when they fled, which made them let down their vigilance even more.

In order to capture Xuzhou City within the five-day time limit stipulated by Yuan Shu, Zhang Xun had to give an order for the troops to abandon all the baggage and logistics troops that transported food, and approach Xuzhou City with light equipment.

Xuzhou City is hundreds of miles away from the Yinling area, and it takes almost five days to march in peacetime, not to mention on this heavy rain and muddy road.

In order to be able to fulfill Yuan Shu's order, Zhang Xunyou had to order his soldiers to hurry in the starry night, rushing through the muddy road for more than 100 miles in a day and night.

Halfway through the journey, Yuan Shu's army was already exhausted, and its combat effectiveness had plummeted.

Zhang Xun saw this scene, although he was a little worried, but he thought of the new defeat of the enemy, the morale must be low, although his own side was weakened by exhaustion, but it should not be a problem to clean up their group of remnants of the defeated army.

Zhang Xun still ordered the troops to advance at the original speed and in the starry night.

Four days later, Yuan Shujun's army finally arrived at the city of Xuzhou!

Zhang Xun stood outside Xuzhou City tiredly, pointed at the gate of Xuzhou City with the long sword in his hand, mustered up his last strength, and shouted loudly to the soldiers behind him: "Soldiers, attack Xuzhou City, we can rest in Xuzhou City tonight!" When the time comes, I will feast for my brothers for three days! Reward the three armies! ”

"Good! Good! Good! Yuan Shu's army was finally plucked up with a trace of anticipation, dragging their tired bodies, and the 300,000 army rushed towards the tall city outline of Xuzhou City.

But at this time, there was a creaking sound in the city of Xuzhou.

The people of Yuan Shujun outside the city followed the prestige, and this voice came from the gate of Xuzhou City!

The gate of Xuzhou City slowly opened by itself!

"Kill! Yanren Zhang Yide is here! Wait for the rats, let them die! ”

"Guan Yunchang is here, don't you hurry up and get off the horse and surrender!"

Two fierce and unusually powerful generals rushed out of the city gate first, and behind them were a steady stream of energetic soldiers!

"Haha, you've been tricked!" There was another explosion on the left side of Yuan Shujun, and countless soldiers and horses shook flags from the left side of Yuan Shujun, and the leader was tall and mighty, holding a Fang Tian painting halberd! It is the famous Lu Bu!

At the same time, there was another movement behind Yuan Shujun, and everyone looked back, and a large banner embroidered with the character Cao was rolling towards this side, cutting off their retreat!

"What's going on?!" Zhang Xun was shocked when he saw this scene! Didn't the enemy have already been crippled by themselves in the previous sneak attack? But looking at the current situation, the enemy army is not only still numerous, but also imposing!

"We've been tricked!" After thinking for a while, Zhang Xun finally suddenly woke up to the fact that the defeat in front of the enemy turned out to be all disguised! Their purpose is to show weakness to the enemy, let themselves work on the expedition, and play the role of waiting for work at ease!

But....... Zhang Xun still didn't understand some critical points, he had obviously defeated a large number of their troops, and even captured tens of thousands of prisoners! Where did so many enemy soldiers and horses come from?

However, the tense situation now did not allow him to think about it anymore, because at this time, the big knife and snake spear in the hands of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were already stretched out to his neck.
