Yuan Tan's soldiers and horses came quickly.

He barely cleaned the battlefield completely, and as soon as he returned Chen Deng's head, he immediately began to attack the city.

Xiaopei still had 10,000 troops, and the city could be defended, but the city walls were not high enough or thick enough, and when the Jizhou army, which was proficient in siege, began a full-scale attack, they immediately fell into a bitter battle.

There were earthen bags and ladders everywhere, and everywhere there were Jizhou people who were climbing to the city wall, and wave after wave of arrows poured down on the city, and the soldiers fell to the ground like raindrops, grinning their teeth, screaming again and again, and then under the urging of the war supervisor, they gritted their teeth and pulled out the arrows on their bodies, and stumbled towards the city wall again.

There were cries and blood everywhere in the city, and some of them tried to steal the city gates, and they were put on the city wall, and the whole family, old and young, lined up one by one and cut off their heads, and threw the corpses down together, and some people set fire to the city and robbed them, and they were also put on the city wall, and there was no sound.

The common people were mobilized to serve as men and reservists of the army, and the men were to take turns to go up the walls to give the soldiers time to rest, and the women were to take on the work of servitude, boiling water and carrying firewood, and carrying many heavy supplies.

In the whole Xiapi, there is only Lu Bu here, and there is an eerie tranquility.

No one came, no recruitment, no servitude, not even a thief dared to pass by the door.

Lu Bu wore armor and sat under the porch for two days, and the snowflakes fell on his eyebrows, and he didn't tremble.

On the third day, the shouting and killing suddenly became louder, some people shouted that the city was broken, and some people cried that the people of Jizhou had turned over from the city wall, and Lu Bu couldn't sit still.

"I'll take a look," he said to Mrs. Yan through the door, "I'll come as soon as I go." ”

Yan was in the inner room, sitting with the daughters-in-law of several veterans, also doing needlework, and he didn't raise his head when he heard this, as if he didn't hear it at all.

But after Lu Bu finished speaking, he felt a lot more settled in his heart, and he ordered a few more personal soldiers to guard this place, and then he took out the horse, lifted the horse lance, and led a team of soldiers out of the fangmen.

The sky was overcast, and there was fire on all sides, so I couldn't tell the time.

After walking a few steps in the direction of the West City Gate, where Yuan Tan was attacking, he saw that the houses on both sides of the road were damaged, and they were full of bloodstains.

Some were crushed under the beams, some were lying face down on the side of the road, and some were looking at him with their backs to the sky, men, women and children.

Lu Bu continued to walk forward until he came to the city wall and looked up, and happened to see Lu Bai walking down.

The delicate and white beauty was gone, replaced by a rather tired general, with a muslin tied around her head, but the blood did not stop, and after soaking the cloth, it continued to flow downward, dirtying her forehead and cheeks, and she wiped it a few times, which made it even more terrifying.

But that's how she walked down the stairs and greeted him with a smile.

"The Jizhou people's mounds are as high as the city walls," she said, "but it doesn't matter, we've beaten them back." ”

Lu Bu choked on something in his throat, he couldn't go up or down, and it took him a long time to hold back a sentence.

"You can only hold on for a while."

"It's good for a while, although my eldest father is ruined, he has also guarded the territory of the Han Dynasty all his life," she said, "and now it is no different for me to guard it." ”

Her mouth was still open and closed, but Lu Bu didn't seem to hear anything.

The time for the city to talk was very short, and someone was shouting something on the city wall, Lu Bai's face changed, and when he saluted him and was about to go up the city wall, he was suddenly stopped by him.

"You can only stay for a while." Lu Bu repeated.

Lu Bai's eyes became stern, but she didn't speak, still looking at him.

"Open the gates," he said, "I have a hundred horses to choose from." ”

When Xiao Pei's city gate opened, those Jizhou people who stepped on the dirt mountain and looked down fell into a brief confusion, they didn't understand why the defenders opened the city gate, after all, neither Zhang Chao nor Zang Ba were brave generals who killed the enemy in battle.

But when the city gate slowly opened and a war horse rushed out, even Yuan Tan under Da Xuan suddenly shuddered involuntarily!

And standing on the city wall, Lu Bai, who was looking down from afar, finally exhaled softly.

…… How could she sincerely persuade Lu Bu to leave?

…… Where did she fight for that "big man"?

Through her, he seemed to see an innocent and kind little girl who was single-minded, obsessed with the reputation of her father and ancestors, and could even give up her life.

He was moved by such a beautiful phantom, and once again picked up the name of the unparalleled brave general in the world, and fought for this city that had never belonged to him.

But there was nothing wrong with that, both for the city and for Lu Bu himself.

He rode on the red rabbit horse, led dozens of horsemen to rush all the way to kill, and in an instant, he killed a bloody road until the Chinese army was defeated.

The morale of the defenders in the city was greatly boosted, the war drums and cheers shook the sky, and immediately the people of Jizhou were cut down to the ground in panic, and the back could not fill the vacant seats for a while, and the rain of arrows struck, and countless casualties were killed.

Xiao Pei's siege battle turned the tide because of one person and became stalemate.

But all this no longer means anything to Xiapi Chen.

Chen Jue's health seems to have improved a lot these days, and he can often get up to read, and occasionally listen to his nephews' remarks about some small turmoil in the imperial court.

The old man only listened, but did not say anything, his mind seemed to be no longer on these things, and he was only waiting for something with all his heart.

He waited for a snowy day.

Snowflakes drifted in the sky, falling in the courtyard, and some fell under the porch, which were baked by the heat of the house, and turned into moist droplets, glowing with moist light.

The little grandson ran in.

He was carrying a fish—and now that the lakes and rivers were freezing, it was not easy to think of a fish, so the boy cried out for joy, and held the fish before him as if it were a treasure, and asked him to see it.

- How about making such a fresh fish into a tart?

No, don't you know that your father fell ill because of gluttony, and he is still laughed at by the people of the time!

After he said this sentence with a straight face, he felt a little too harsh...... Or, let's let Xiaolang eat a few slices?

Just a few slices?

When Xiao Pei's messenger knocked on the door of the Chen family with the wooden box, no one cared about the fish, and they ran to the main room in a panic, wanting to inform the old man of the unfortunate news, and in the panic thought of a few words of comfort.

But none of them spoke those words.

The gray-haired old man leaned on the table, and seemed to have taken a nap while waiting for the fish, and fell asleep.

Chapter 550

When Xiao Pei was fighting in the siege and counteroffensive every day, the soldiers and horses led by Lu Hangyu finally joined Liu Bei.

She has completely defeated Yuan Shao's Western Route Army, and the defeated soldiers have even become bandits who loot everywhere in Jizhou, further encroaching on Yuan Shao's deep family background.

In terms of the tasks each person undertakes, she has done what she should have done, and now it is up to the lord.

…… The lord is rotten.

…… Particularly frankly rotten.

When she came to the small city of Liu Bei's troops dozens of miles outside Suiyang City, the lord stood in the wind and waited for her.

and the string of people behind him, all waiting for her.

Even if Lu Hangyu didn't realize it later, he quickly jumped off the horse and trotted over.

The lord had a relieved look on his face, and when he was about to say something, she asked in a low voice.

"Lord, you lost the battle, right?"

The smile on the lord's face cracked.

The strategists behind him coughed and turned their heads away, not looking at the two of them.

So Lu Hangyu realized that he had said the wrong thing again.

"Almost," Liu Bei was very open-minded, "Yuan Shao is indeed not easy to fight." ”

She nodded seriously, and hurriedly comforted, "It's okay, now that I'm here, I'll avenge the lord!" ”

The lord raised his eyebrows and laughed.

"With the words of Ciyu, I am relieved!"

The heads behind Liu Bei turned back, and one by one they showed their beaming faces.

Everyone first got together, ate, chatted, and during this period, she also took out Xiaodouding Cao Zhi to Liu Bei to see.

Cao Zhi had calmed down, he didn't like to cry much, and probably knew that in front of so many people, Liu Bei was embarrassed to cut off his head, but he still saluted Liu Bei very thoughtfully.

…… But Cao Zhi was still a little confused on his face, and Liu Bei too, who didn't seem to understand why she deliberately brought out such a little baby.

"This," she introduced very seriously, "it's Cao Zhi!" ”

Liu Bei touched his beard, "Well, although his father is my old enemy, he is indeed a hero, and now that he is under your account, he can also learn some riding and archery skills with you, which is not to live up to his father's entrustment." ”

"I'm not talking about his father," Lu Xuanyu quickly repeated again, "This is Cao Zhi!" Write a poem for everyone to see? ”

She looked at Xiao Douding, Xiao Douding looked at her, until someone played a round and led Xiao Douding who was crying to eat, and no one could understand her mental journey of "You are so good at writing poems, can you write a few poems on the spot, let us all follow the journey of becoming famous".

Although it was a little embarrassing, everyone was used to General Xiao Lu's occasional strange behavior.

…… Even Sima Yi was calm.

Keep drinking.

There is not much wine, even if it is the banquet held by Liu Bei in the Chinese military tent, everyone only has one pot, and it is just a meaning to drink.

But these high-ranking generals drank good wine, and the soldiers were much more miserable, and they were waiting for not wine, but water mixed with wine. When it was boiled, there was also a smell of wine, which caused them to gather around the pot and twitch their noses wildly, and when they took a sip, they immediately began to puff.

After finishing the mouth, no one is willing to take a sip.

Wine has become a luxury, and the reason is simple.

"There is not enough grain and grass, the lord has banned wine, Qingxu Yuyang, the four states are not allowed to make wine privately, and the brewer will be punished."

When Mr. Sun Qian talked to her like this, Jian Yong suddenly became happy.

"What are you laughing at?"

Liu Bei suddenly turned his face and looked at Jian Yong, so Mr. Xiao Yuan's face took back his smiling face again, leaving Lu Hangyu with a confused face.

"All in all, this war is really too long."

She held up the chopsticks and chewed a piece of pork that had not been chopped up, so the taste was very unthinkable, and when she nodded subconsciously, Liu Bei spoke again.

"I have built an earthen altar in the south of the city, do you want to go and see it?"

Eyes from all sides have been seen.

Some people are surprised, some people are worried, some people seem to have jealousy in their eyes, and some people have fiery envy in their eyes.

Only she didn't react yet.

She used to take over the military power of Guan Erye, when they continuously beat Sun Ce, Yuan Shu, Cao Ren Yu Ban, the soldiers were extremely tired, and no matter whose soldiers and horses alone could not face Cao Cao alone, so they merged into one, and she led the troops to break through Cao Cao's army and relieve the siege of Xiapi.
