Chapter 521: Entering Xiapi
( ) After a cover-up, Chen Yan successfully led his troops to attack Xiapi City, which was already a little dilapidated at this time because it had just been attacked by Cao Cao, and the city wall was fine, but the people's residences had begun to be messy as if they had been robbed.
But it's also true, every invasion is almost a robbery, and how can the common people survive?
Chen Qi and Chen Deng's father and son originally thought that Cao Cao would be able to better control Xiapi, so they opened the door to meet the enemy, but unfortunately the two of them never imagined that Chen Yan had already galloped over from Chen Liu, thousands of miles away, so quickly, not only to avenge Lu Bu, but also to take over Xuzhou.
Although the two fathers and sons have always had a good impression of Chen Yan, they have surrendered to Cao Cao at this time, and Cao Cao has an incomparable grudge against Chen Yan.
Chen Qi and Chen Deng had already discussed, so they had to put aside their influence in Xuzhou for the time being, pack up the shape, drag their families with them, and wait to escape with Cao Cao.
This time, Chen Yan's arrival was too fast, and the offensive was too fierce, and I am afraid that no one in the entire Xiapi could resist Chen Yan.
Zang Ba also wanted to prove his loyalty and lead troops to fight against Chen Yan, but unfortunately Cao Cao always refused to trust him, and would rather let Lu Qian and Dian Wei break off than let Zang Ba and Chen Yan meet.
Zang Ba understood Cao Cao's suspicion in his heart, but he was helpless, there was no way, after all, he was a recruit who had just surrendered, and he would inevitably be suspected by his new master.
Chen Yan was wielding a halberd at this time, his heart was happy, and the battle with Xiahou Yuan just now made him understand his strength at this time. Xiahou Yuan is one of the few masters in the world, and he is also a general under Cao Cao, he was able to force Xiahou Yuan away within a few rounds, scaring him to flee without a fight, such strength naturally surprised Chen Yan's heart.
Chen Yan even remembered that he had fought with Xiahou Yuan when he intercepted Cao Cao outside Chang'an City, and that time Xiahou Yuan almost killed himself and Lu Lingqi alone, but in the blink of an eye, a few years have passed, Chen Yan's ability has surpassed Xiahou Yuan, and such progress is really amazingly fast.
Chen Yan thought of when he first joined Lu Bu's camp, Zhang Liao once said that with Chen Yan's foundation, I am afraid that he will not be able to become a grandmaster-level figure in the world without being thirty years old, how can such an ability not move the heroes of the world?
Thinking of this, Chen Yan was even more enthusiastic in his heart, and immediately sped up his speed and rushed towards Cao Cao's main army.
He had just taken a few steps, and suddenly a group of men and horses in front of him were in the middle of the road, and a man with a serious face, covered in silver armor, wearing a royal blue robe, and carrying a large knife.
Chen Yan saw that the man was a little embarrassed, and couldn't help asking, "Come and get a name?" ”
The general seemed to be a little nervous when he saw Chen Yan, but he was still calm and graceful, and said slowly: "A certain is Lu Qian under the command of Duke Cao!" ”
When Chen Yan heard this, he searched urgently in his mind, and seemed to remember that Cao Cao's subordinates really had a person named this name, but what was the specific martial arts of this person, Chen Yan forgot about it, if it was expected, this person's ability would definitely not be strong, otherwise Chen Yan would naturally not forget.
Although Lu Qian was not good at martial arts, he was quite confident, he naturally knew that the silver-haired general in front of him was the dignified Heavenly Master Chen Yan, but he did not show his timidity, but instead a long knife rolled up layers of murderous aura and rushed towards Chen Yan violently.
Chen Yan sneered, and saw in his eyes that although Lu Qian's tricks were stable, he looked like a practitioner who had cultivated since he was a child and had a solid foundation in martial arts, but he could also see that he was not fast, his tricks were not ruthless, and he was not a top master.
Chen Yan was angry and sank into the dantian, and the halberd was thrown out violently, and at this time Lu Qian had already ridden to the front of Chen Yan, Chen Yan's halberd was like a swimming dragon, which was a move in the "Dragon and Phoenix Halberd Method": "Swimming the Dragon and Playing the Phoenix", although this trick was too simple to be simple, but at this time Chen Yan's speed and strength had been raised a notch, and this shallow trick was used by Chen Yan, and it immediately became extremely mysterious.
I only heard Lu Qian's scream, the long knife was already unstable, Chen Yan's move had already shattered Lu Qian's tiger mouth, if it was said that the fight with Xiahou Yuan just now reflected Chen Yan's excellent speed, then the fight at this time reflected Chen Yan's amazing strength!
Today's Chen Yan has reached a higher level in terms of speed and strength!
After Lu Qian's move, he immediately knew that he was unable to support himself, Chen Yan's ability was definitely above him, and his most powerful backer, Dian Wei, was not here.
Although Lu Qian is a warrior, he also understands the truth that a hero does not suffer losses in front of him.
Chen Yan rode his horse behind, but he was not in a hurry to chase and kill, but the road in Xiapi City was complicated, and what he really wanted was to find the culprit Cao Cao.
Sure enough, in a blink of an eye, Lu Qian turned around and disappeared in the path of Xiapi City, although Chen Yan was riding a horse, but he really couldn't take a step in this lane, he raised his eyes and looked around, but he never saw Cao Cao's shadow.
At this time, Huang Zhong galloped in front with three thousand iron horses, Huang Zhong walked in the front, saw Chen Yan, and hurriedly came over to say: "Lord, let's look around, I didn't see Cao Cao's shadow, but there are a few guards, it seems that Zang Ba's subordinates, have been corrected on the spot, and they look down on the death-fearing ghosts who escaped from the battle." ”
Chen Yan smiled slightly, nodded and said: "Very good, but this Picheng is such a big place, Cao Cao must escape from the back door, if we chase the back door in time at this time, we may still be able to see Cao Cao's army." ”
Huang Zhong nodded and said: "I think it's good, by the way, Uncle Liu Huang once commanded Xuzhou, and he must be very familiar with the path of Xiapi, let's ask him to lead the way." ”
Hearing this, Chen Yan nodded and said, "What General Hansheng said is good, I will invite Uncle Liu Huang to come over." ”
Chen Yan has not finished speaking, Liu Guanzhang and the three of them have already ridden their horses, Liu Bei has about 10,000 troops under him at this time, needless to say, it is Chen Yan's charity, although Liu Bei has few soldiers, but he is also grateful to Chen Yan, so he does his best to do things.
Liu Bei saw that Chen Yan and Huang Zhong were holding back, and immediately hit the horses over, gave a salute, and asked, "Da Sima, why did we stop?" ”
Chen Yan immediately said: "Cao Jun has completely retreated at this time, and it can be seen that he is preparing to flee from here, but unfortunately I am not familiar with Xiapi, and I don't know which gate to get out of if Cao Cao escapes?" ”
