Lu Bu did not return to the camp immediately, in order to avoid Cao Cao taking the opportunity to raid Xiapi, he had already told Gao Shun that after he succeeded, he would not return to the city immediately, and he would not return to the city until dawn, and no matter who came at night, he could not open the city gate, otherwise he would not have to let the trapped camp go into battle.

He took Zhang Liao to walk around Cao Ying a few times, and from time to time he would shoot fire arrows at Cao Ying, causing chaos to Cao Ying, and then seeing that the fire was getting bigger and bigger, Lu Bu took Zhang Liao and the cavalry to find an abandoned village near Xiapi to rest temporarily.

It wasn't until the next day when the sun was on the third pole that Lu Bu returned to Xiapi City with the soldiers who had corrected it overnight.

At the head of the city, when Gao Shun saw Lu Bu returning, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, last night he saw the Cao army camp on fire, and he knew that the matter had been done, and whether the grain and grass could be burned at that time, Gao Shun was not too sure.

"Kaesong! Welcome the lord into the city! Gao Shun took a deep breath and said loudly.

Outside the city, Zhang Liao was still very curious, how Lu Bu was able to accurately grasp the location of Cao's army's grain and grass, and not only that, but even knew the layout of Cao's army's camp well, if it wasn't for the Cao's army's deployment in advance, how could they be so smooth, five hundred cavalry, overnight, except for a few who were dragged off horseback in the chaotic battle, the rest were mostly injured, five hundred people went there, and four hundred and ninety-three people came back, and Cao Jun was killed last night, trampled to death by horses and trampled to death, Countless people were burned to death, and if the casualty ratio is calculated, last night's battle can definitely be regarded as a big victory.

The most important thing is that Cao Jun's grain and grass have been burned, and without those grain and grass, Cao Jun may not be long before he will retreat.

"Congratulations to the lord, this battle has broken the Cao army!" After Gao Shun handed over the responsibility of guarding the city to the captain of the gate, he went down to the city with the trapping camp, and there was a smile on his serious face.

"You can laugh?" Lu Bu turned over and dismounted, looking at the scar on the neck of the red rabbit horse with some distress, although it was not deep, but it still made Lu Bu feel uncomfortable, seeing Gao Shun coming up, Lu Bu looked at the little smile on his face, and couldn't help but punch him in the chest.

"Let the soldiers have a good rest, the soldiers who went out yesterday will be rewarded with five hundred dollars each, one pound of meat, and those who die in battle, if there are family members in Xiapi, send a thousand dollars, ten catties of meat, and record their names in the book, and send their property every festival in the future, and when Cao Jun retreats this time, those who have land at home will be exempt from tax for one year, and those who have no land will be exempt from tax for one year, and those who have no land will be exempted from tax for one year." Lu Bu looked at the soldiers behind him and said, "The soldiers in the camp have meritorious service in defending the city, and each person will be rewarded with fifty dollars." ”

In the battle last night, Cao's army ran out of food and grass, and Lu Bu estimated that Cao Cao should soon retreat, but he couldn't say, after all, Xiapi City could be broken overnight, and he had to find a way to boost morale, first of all, the camp and the cavalry that attacked with him last night.

Needless to say, since he was trained by Gao Shun, he has always been the most elite soldier under Lu Bu, and these cavalry accompanying the army are also elite soldiers who have experienced a hundred battles, and he must first ensure the morale and loyalty of these elites.

In last night's battle, these soldiers who have experienced it have confidence in how to maintain loyalty, before being reborn, Lu Bu didn't know much, but in the past 20 years, Lu Bu has seen many people manage the army, including Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang, who were famous strategists and generals who shined in the future, one thing is very important, that is, the rewards and punishments are clear, and Lu Bu is now to emulate these people's way of governing the army.

"Lord!" Song Xian, who came later, frowned and bowed down when he heard this: "Now there is not much grain and grass in the city, can these things be distributed after Cao Jun retreats!" ”

"So-and-so is starving to death, and you can't let the soldiers who follow a certain birth to death starve, Gao Shun!" Lu Bu glanced at Song Xian coldly and said sharply.

"In!" Gao Shun took a step forward and said loudly.

"You personally led the soldiers and horses to the warehouse, and distributed the necessary meat and money to the soldiers! Those who dare to deduct and obstruct will be killed! Lu Bu's voice was very loud, and when the soldiers around him heard this, many people showed excitement, especially the soldiers who fought last night and the soldiers who fell into the camp, and they showed excited expressions.

These rewards may not be much, but what really moved them was Lu Bu's previous words, even if they starved to death, they couldn't be allowed to starve, which made these soldiers feel a sense of attention.

"Whoa!" Gao Shun straightened his chest, and Hong Sheng responded: "Trap the camp and listen to the order!" ”

"In!" The soldiers of the eight hundred trapped camps roared in unison, and the sound soared into the sky.

"Come with me!" Gao Shun saluted Lu Bu, and then led the trapped soldiers and horses straight to the warehouse.

Song Xian on the side was stared at by Lu Bu before, his face turned pale, and he didn't dare to say anything, but he was secretly frightened in his heart, how could Lu Bu feel much more atmospheric than before in the past two days, if it was before, even if Lu Bu won a big victory, he would not be so generous.

How did he know that Lu Bu had died once, he had watched the world as a bystander for 20 years, and he had seen countless outstanding people, not only did he see a lot of knowledge, but he also looked very lightly at things outside his body, and he valued strength more, as long as he could strengthen his strength, he would be willing to give up more money and food.

This victory is the first victory since Cao Cao's siege, Lu Bu has won, not only morale has risen, but also a group of soldiers have some confidence in their hearts, although the Cao army is out of food and grass only these people who participated in the war know, but others also see some hope, Lu Bu in a cadre of generals, back to the general's mansion.

After Chen Gong learned what Lu Bu did last night, his face was a little ugly, and when everyone congratulated him, he said coldly: "Although Wen Hou has won, if this battle is lost, isn't Picheng in danger now?" ”

"There is no such thing as an if!" Lu Bu looked at Chen Gong and laughed loudly: "Heroes are judged by success or failure, I won!" ”

When Chen Gong heard this, he snorted and stopped talking, in his opinion, it was just a success in robbing the camp, and it was just a suppression of the morale of the Cao army, and there was not much change in the overall situation, but now these generals were like a big victory, which really made Chen Gong a little blind.

At noon, Lu Bu held a banquet in the general's mansion, because he had issued a ban on alcohol before, so he didn't drink, but just let people kill a wounded horse and cook with the generals.

"Although there is a small victory, but now the Cao army has not retreated, this wine, this general, the general owes you, wait for me to retreat the Cao army, and then drink with the generals!" After eating the meat, Lu Bu got up, took a bowl of water and said with a smile: "Now, I can only ask the generals to drink this cup and continue to take care of the city." ”

"Dare to disobey!" All the generals raised the water bowl together, and after saluting Lu Bu from afar, after pouring a stomach of water, they got up and said goodbye to Lu Bu, and each went back to prepare the sergeants, preparing to fight the Cao army again.
