Lu Bu and the others' guesses were not wrong at all. In Xue Wushu's eyes, the so-called "chasing the Central Plains" in this world is really just a game, and it is still a low-difficulty game.

Everything is to end this war as soon as possible that is completely meaningless in Xue Wushu's opinion. Then restore the rule of the Han Dynasty, get everything back on track, and continue to generate value, before you can send more resources to the Daoist Difu.

Of course, this is not to say that there is a "lack of resources" here. On the contrary, for now, there is still a lot of potential to be tapped in this world.

The Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi of this world is "inert", and ordinary people have no way to absorb it. This causes the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi to be consumed extremely slowly, and it will accumulate and become more and more intense. In this way, the creatures who are bathed in these rich heaven and earth vitality can get great benefits even if they can't cultivate.

Exotic flowers and exotic beasts will be far superior to other dimensional worlds of the same level because of the superiority of the environment. The innate soul strength of living beings will also be higher than that of other dimensional worlds. Even the blessed land will be a little more.

Therefore, when Xue Wushu led the more than 8,000 horses in Xiapi and arrived in Sichuan, it was not long after. Rong Ziju led five hundred ghost country city defense troops to be fully armed and recruited by Xue Wushu to the yang world.

"Knock on Yan Jun, Yan Jun Sheng'an!"

"Get up. This mission is the same as before. Probe first, then probe. The first target is the Heroic Spirit, and the second is all kinds of curiosities. ”

"My subordinates understand!"

After explaining, Rong Ziju bowed and retired. Sneaked underground with five hundred city defense troops and quickly split up. Rong Ziju, who already has a lot of experience, already has a good set of finding heroic spirits, and the position of the soul gathering envoy sits firmly.

And not long after Xue Wushu left with all the sergeants in Xiapi City. Cao Cao, who was ten miles outside Xiapi City, also discovered the clues.

The Great Tent of the Chinese Army.

I saw a man in his early forties, dressed in military uniform, with a short stature, thick limbs, and a big beard on his face, and he was frowning as he listened to his spies report that all the defenders in Picheng had disappeared. This person is Sikong of the dynasty, Cao Cao, and Cao Mengde.

But Xiapi City has been surrounded on all sides, can Lu Bu still escape?

"Don't worry. Lu Bu is already unable to fly, and some tricks can only be laughed at and generous. Our army only needs to strengthen its vigilance, and we can test the clues when we have a night attack tonight. ”

The man who spoke was very young, less than thirty. Stand at the bottom right.

"Feng Xiao, what do you think?" Cao Cao frowned slightly, sat on the stool, and looked around at the people below.

But before the generals and strategists below could speak, another spy rushed into the camp chanting "newspaper".

"The report is empty, the gate of Xiapi City is wide open, and many ordinary people are escaping from it!"

Cao Cao immediately bounced up from his chair and asked urgently, "Can you impact my army formation on all sides?"

"No, I didn't. Before the little one returned, those people had been blocked in front of the four gates, and none of them dared to approach the military formation. Nor like a sergeant. ”

Cao Cao was greatly relieved when he heard that the army was unharmed, but he was relieved, and the next few strategists were not so calm.

"The lord is gracious, the gate of the city of Xiapi is wide open, the people flee, and there will be great changes in the city. His Majesty thought that this matter could not wait any longer, and that he needed to react immediately and send a detachment of troops into the city to investigate. ”

"Accurate!"

The Chinese army could not move. The front army sent a force of 1,000 men, and under the cover of cavalry, slowly approached the Xiapi city gate. And then enter. There were no obstacles. When I entered the city, I saw the people in fear. After many days of fighting, the people tightened their clothes and food, and their hearts were in a hurry, and now they were even more frightened when they saw Cao's army entering the city. They don't care who rules them, they are afraid that the new ruler will slaughter the city with his sword in order to vent his anger.

This thousand-person team was actually very nervous, for fear that this was some trick set up by Lu Bu. But I searched everything inside and out, and I also found more than a dozen ordinary people to ask. The answer was: Lu Bu disappeared with the centaurs.

Cao Cao was stunned at first when he heard the news in the big tent, and then he was furious. Under the siege on all sides, even if Lu Bu breaks through, there should be movement, nearly 10,000 people, as well as wounded and baggage, this is not fast, how to escape from the army formation on all sides?

"The Chinese army pressed up, I have to ask Chen Deng, how did Lu Bu escape from under his nose!"

Faced with limited and confusing information, Cao Cao's strategists also kept their mouths shut. They also didn't understand how Lu Bu got away. Could it really be that Chen Deng let Lu Bu go? But there is no reason for this!

Chen Dengnai was the Taishou of Guangling County and the vanguard commander of this attack on Xiapi. After learning of the great changes in Xia Picheng, he was the most anxious in his heart. He was very depressed, and he also understood that Lu Bu disappeared from the city with a large army, and he was the most guilty.

Cao Sikong can usually be polite and virtuous, and he has a lot of belly. But in the military array, military law is strict. If he Chen Deng can't come up with a credible explanation, I'm afraid that this level will have to fall to the ground.

Chen Deng waited in front of the front army. It is also a big sin not to dare to go too far and leave your post without permission. I could only watch Cao Cao walk towards him with a large number of high-level officials, and I could see that dark face from a distance.

"Where are the people of Lu Bu now?"

"Your Majesty doesn't know. ”

"How and when did you get away?"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty doesn't know. ”

"What's the use of you! Come on, push this blind fool out and cut it off!" Cao Cao had a cold face, and he was about to cut off Chen Deng's head after saying two sentences. It can be seen how angry I feel in my heart.

But in the end, Chen Deng's head was saved. Surrounded on all sides, there were tens of thousands of people in the army array, and there were no less than 500 spies, but no one really saw how Lu Bu broke through and where he went.

What's even more strange is that the people in the city were found and questioned separately, and dozens of people were questioned in a row. The answer was the same. It is said that Lu Bu first gathered all the soldiers under his command in an open area in the city, and then he was enveloped in a huge black mist, and then in the blink of an eye, everyone was gone, including no less than fifty baggage carts.

"Gongda, how do you feel about what these people have seen?" Cao Cao put down his hand and gathered back the confessions of the people and the former army spies, his tone was full of doubts, and he looked down, and the only Confucian in his early thirties who was left behind by him asked.

This Confucian was Cao Cao's mastermind Xun You.

"My lord, the matter has come to this, and it doesn't matter how Lu Bu escaped. The important thing is that Xiapi has been taken down by the lord. And the casualties were much smaller than expected. Then the lord will be able to deal with Yuan Shao in the north with all his might. ”

"It's not important?!Lu Bu escaped alone, but he took away more than 8,000 hundred soldiers, if this is to attack my rear at the critical time of the war, it will be a big mistake, it is a matter of life and death!"

Xun You bowed and said, "Lord, although Lu Bu has taken away more than 8,000 subordinates. But if you lose the place to rely on Xiapi, whether it is logistics or soldier supply, it will be difficult to last. And they disappeared so strangely that his subordinates felt that if they wanted to find them again, they would not be able to do it in a short time. ”

Cao Cao was uneasy. If Lu Bu doesn't get rid of it, how can he go all out to fight against the menacing Yuan Shao?

"No! Lu Bu must find it. Otherwise, it is not appropriate to start a war with Yuan Shao!"

Cao Cao's voice fell, and his right hand slammed heavily on the table. Bang.
