Chapter 167: Pursuit

The night slowly swept over the whole land, boundless, and torches and fires were lit one after another in the large camps outside the city.

Tanxian, Caoying, and Koyi Daying are like a zigzag, facing each other.

At this time, whether it is in the city or in the camp, there seems to be an oppressive atmosphere, like the dullness before the storm, which cannot be seen or touched, but it can make everyone feel its presence.

Cao Cao had already stood outside the tent neatly, with a solemn expression, not knowing what to think.

Dian Wei carried an iron halberd, leading a horse with a divine horse to follow Cao Cao's side, the name of this horse said: "Absolute Shadow", is a great horse, mountaineering and wading, such as walking on the ground, galloping, such as soaring clouds and fog, the figure is difficult to chase, deeply loved by Cao Cao!

It didn't take long for Cao Ren to come quickly, clasping his hands into fists and saying, "Your lord, everything is ready, you can set off just after the lord's order!" ”

Cao Cao nodded slightly, squinted his eyes and whispered, "Summons the order to go!" Then he turned around, took the reins from Dian Wei's hand, and turned over on his horse.

Cao Ren did not delay in getting the order, and turned around quickly.

Cao Cao rode on a horse, glanced at the direction of Tanxian, his eyes were slightly condensed, and his tone was unwilling: "Come back, settle in this city!" "Leave first.

……

LΓΌ Bu was extremely concerned about chasing and killing Cao Cao, and sent his subordinate Wei Xu to personally lead his troops to monitor Cao's camp to prevent Cao Cao from escaping quietly.

Wei Xu is close to Lu Bu and has won Lu Bu's trust.

There is a battalion of soldiers and horses under Lu Bu, called the trap, known as invincible, no formation, this battalion of soldiers and horses is trained by Gao Shun, but it is not under the command of Gao Shun.

The real leader of the trapped camp is Wei Xu, and Lu Bu only let Gao Shun be responsible for commanding the trapped camp when he was fighting.

Wei Xu led several scouts and stared at Cao Ying from a distance, and suddenly saw Cao Jun coming out in formation, not holding torches, and quietly leaving in the direction of Yanzhou under the cover of night.

Wei Xu was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly whispered to a few people: "Cao thief wants to escape at night, you continue to check, I will go back to the camp to report to Wenhou!" After saying that, he quietly got up and left.

Because Lu Bu didn't know when Cao Cao would retire from the army, he ate dinner and sat quietly in the tent, his eyes closed, and his spirit was recuperated, so that he could maintain his state at any time and wait for news by the way.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly the curtain was lifted, and Wei Xu strode in, and said in an excited tone: "Yu Wenhou, Cao thief withdraws his troops!" ”

Lu Bu, who was closing his eyes, heard that Cao Cao had retreated, suddenly opened his eyes, and a powerful momentum gushed out, and then got up and said: "Quickly go and gather soldiers and horses, and follow me to chase and kill Cao Thief!" ”

Wei Xu has followed Lu Bu for many years, but every time he faces Lu Bu's powerful momentum, he will feel a pang in his heart, and when he hears the order, he hurriedly replied: "No! Then he walked away quickly.

After Wei Xu left, Lu Bu walked to the weapon rack, reached out and took Fang Tian's halberd, snorted coldly, and stepped out of the tent.

After a short time, the neighing of war horses and the chaotic sound of horses' hooves sounded in the camp, and Lu Bu personally led the generals and led the army to pursue them.

At the gate of the camp, Zhang Liao, who was left behind by Lu Bu to guard the camp, looked at the fire dragon in the distance, frowned, and gave an order to the soldiers next to him, and quickly walked towards the camp of Liyi.

At this time, Lu Yi also received the news of the scout, saying that Cao Cao led the troops to retreat, and he was immediately overjoyed!

Cao Cao retreated, Xuzhou was preserved, and he can also carry out the next step, I believe that with this fight against Cao Cao, the people of Xuzhou will definitely have a good impression of themselves, and then they will marry Tao Qian, Xuzhou can also get!

As soon as Lu Yi thought about it, he wanted to send someone to find Tai Shici and Xu Sheng to lead the troops to pursue, but suddenly thought that Lu Bu might not know the situation, and shouted loudly outside the tent: "Someone!" ”

Koji Yan had been guarding outside the big tent, and when he heard Koji Yi's shout, he hurriedly entered, and respectfully hugged his fists and said, "General! ”

Lu Yi ordered: "Quickly send someone to inform Lu Bu that Cao Cao has just led his troops to escape!" ”

"No!" Koji Yan knew that the situation was urgent, and hurriedly turned around to leave, but as soon as he came out of the big tent, he met Zhang Liao who came to look for Koji Yi.

Zhang Liao knew Koji Yan, and hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "I have something important to ask to see General Koji, and please do it on my behalf!" ”

Seeing that it was Zhang Liao, Koji Yan replied: "General, wait a minute!" "After that, re-enter the account.

Koji Yi was thinking about his thoughts, and suddenly saw Koji acting and returning, and he was puzzled and asked, "Why did you come back?" ”

Lu Yan said respectfully: "General Yu, Zhang Liao under Lu Bu's tent is asking to see him outside the tent!" ”

"Zhang Liao?" When Lu Yi heard Zhang Liao's request to see, he was slightly stunned in his heart, nodded and replied: "Please!" ”

Koji acted well and turned around to introduce Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao entered the big tent and hurriedly saluted Koji Yi respectfully.

Lu Yi looked at Zhang Liao in front of him, his heart was full of love, he just hated not to keep it for himself, he looked at it and nodded and asked, "I don't know what happened to Wen Yuan?" ”

When Zhang Liao heard the question, he looked upright, and replied with a fist: "General Hui, just now the scout made an urgent report, saying that Cao Cao led the troops to retreat, and Wen Hou learned the news and hurriedly led the troops to pursue, in order to defeat him in a battle!"

However, Cao Cao was treacherous and had many soldiers and horses, and pursued Yizhong in the middle of the night to ambush, so Liao Te came to ask the general to send troops to support Wen Hou, and he hoped for grace! ”

Seeing that Lu Bu was chasing Cao Cao but did not bring Zhang Liao, Lu Yi was surprised, and asked: "Wen Hou pursued Cao Cao, why didn't Wen Yuan go with him?" ”

Zhang Liao's eyebrows furrowed slightly when he heard this, and then he was relieved, and replied: "Wen Hou is worried that Cao Cao will attack the camp by fraud, so he will guard the camp at the end!" ”

Seeing Zhang Liao's frowning expression just now, he guessed that Zhang Liao must have been angry with Lu Bu, so he punished him for guarding the camp.

Seeing through it and not saying it, Ko Yi pretended to sigh and said: "Wen Hou knows the military affairs, both offensive and defensive, I don't have much time!" ”

Koji Yi got up and shouted outside the door, "Order!" ”

Because of Zhang Liao's arrival, Koji Yan did not leave, and when he heard Koji Yi's call, he rushed into the big tent.

Lu Yi instructed Lu Yan: "Pass my general's order, order Tai Shici Xu Sheng, lead 10,000 troops and horses, go to aid Wen Hou, and jointly pursue Cao Cao!" ”

"No!" Koji Yan listened to the order and turned away.

As early as the day, Koji Yi ordered Tai Shici and Xu Sheng to prepare, so they received the order of Koji Yan, and the two quickly gathered troops and horses and led troops out of Dazhai.

Zhang Liao listened to the chaotic footsteps outside the tent, nodded secretly, and thanked Lu Yi: "Thank you, General!" ”

After hearing this, Lu Yi laughed, stood up and walked around the case to Zhang Liao, and said loudly: "If it weren't for Wen Hou coming to help in time, Cao Cao Yan would have been able to withdraw his troops?"

Now that Wenhou is chasing Cao Thief, it is more righteous, how can I not do my best to help? Wen Yuan is polite! After speaking, he slapped Zhang Liao's right arm twice.

Zhang Liao saw that Lu Yi was so polite to him, his heart moved slightly, and said: "The matter is urgent, the camp is empty, and the last general will not dare to stay for a long time, so leave for the time being!" ”

Lu Yi looked at Zhang Liao with a smile, nodded and replied: "Wen Yuan is back, but the wind is blowing, send someone to inform me as soon as possible, I will personally lead the troops to support!" ”

After hearing this, Zhang Liao respectfully clenched his fists and replied loudly: "Thank you, general!" With that, he turned and left.

……

Lu Bu led the men and horses to gallop all the way, faintly heard messy footsteps in front of him, knew that Cao Jun was in front of him, his heart was overjoyed, and shouted loudly: "Cao Jun is in front, kill with me!" After saying that, he knocked the red rabbit horse and accelerated away again.
