I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 534 Xuande aids the highway

Jia Xu was right in thinking that Liu Jian of the school office really needs to be handed over to a trustworthy person, and this person is undoubtedly Jia Xu.

A person who is capable enough to settle these matters must not have too much ambition at the same time.

From Liu Jian's point of view, looking at it horizontally and vertically, only Jia Xu is the most suitable.

After Jia Xu took control of the school affairs office, he immediately sent people to Xuzhou according to Liu Jian's request, widely spread the name of Liu Bei's benevolence, and publicized that Liu Bei came to Xuzhou this time not to seek Xuzhou's foundation, but to For the sake of the overall situation, it is the hero who was invited by Tao Qianzhi to save the people of Xuzhou and buy people's hearts for Liu Bei.

In addition, Jia Xu also sent people to Xuzhou secretly to find out the attitudes of the various clans in Xuzhou towards Liu Bei.

……

……

At this very moment, Liu Bei was leading his elite soldiers to the south to assist Yuan Shu according to Tao Qian's instructions.

It's not that Liu Bei looked down on Yuan Shu. In fact, Yuan Shu did have several generals who were good at fighting and dispatching troops.

For example, Zhang Xun, Qiao Rui, Lei Bo, and Li Feng are all quite good at fighting, but they are not the top famous generals in the world.

It's okay to deal with others, but against Cao Cao...it's not enough at all.

In particular, Yuan Shu did not have top-notch Confucian generals under his command.

Yan Xiang is at most a counselor, not a wise general, and he is not at all in the military field.

And Cao Cao has top figures like Zhou Yu, Xi Zhicai, and Lu Fan under Cao Cao's command, especially Zhou Yu, who is a peerless talent who allows Wen Wen Yun Wu, and Cao Cao also intends to train him. As a military adviser, he gave full play to his talents.

After three consecutive battles, Zhou Yu and Cao Cao took turns to plot, and a group of elite soldiers and generals gave full play to their abilities, defeating Yuan Shu's army and fleeing several times.

Poor Yuan Shu, this time he lost his troops again.

Near Hanlong Mountain to the east of the Pengcheng State Administration, Cao Cao and Zhou Yu set up an ambush for the last time and defeated Yuan Shu for the third time.

In this battle, Yuan Shu's troops were defeated and scattered, throwing away their helmets and armor, and fled in embarrassment.

Many of Yuan Shu's soldiers surrendered to Cao Cao, and countless died in battle.

Under the cover of generals Zhang Xun and Qiao Rui, Yuan Shu himself led a group of soldiers and horses to break through the encirclement and escape.

Cao Cao's general Xia Houyuan led Lu Dai and Ling Cao to pursue the defeated soldiers of Yuan Shu's headquarters, and chased them all the way for more than forty miles. Many reinforcements were trampled and killed by Cao's elite soldiers The people turned their backs on their backs.

Yuan Shu was in a hurry like a bereaved dog, running west to escape.

However, Cao Jun pursued them like maggots attached to the bones.

Yuan Shu's pocket and cloak were lost, and he was about to die...

At this critical moment, Liu Bei's reinforcements finally arrived.

Liu Bei led Gao Shun and personally led three thousand trapped troops to rescue Yuan Shu.

Watching the distant army approaching him quickly, Yuan Shu trembled with fright.

He thought it was another round of Cao Cao's ambush, and Yuan Shu, who didn't know where he was, looked up to the sky and screamed desolately.

"There is a tiger in front and a wolf behind. There is no way to advance or retreat. I am really going to die. How sad."

Just when Yuan Shu was pessimistic and desperate, he heard the leader of the army in front shouting loudly at Yuan Shu:

"Don't panic on the highway, Liu Bei is coming!"

Yuan Shu wanted to turn around and run, but he faintly heard the shouts from the opposite side. He immediately pulled the reins, looked at his men suspiciously and said, "Who called me?"

Lei Bo straightened up, squinted his eyes and carefully looked at the soldiers and horses opposite him for a while, his face suddenly showed joy.

"General, those are not Cao Cao's soldiers and horses, it's Liu Bei who's coming, it's Liu Bei!"

Yuan Shu was stunned when he heard this.

He looked at the excited Lei Bo in surprise, and said, "Liu Bei?!"

"How did he come to help me?"

Lei Bo shook his head and said, "I don't know! But Qingzhou's soldiers are strong and strong, and they are here, just to help us resist Cao Cao's pursuit!"

Yuan Shu couldn't care less now, he clamped his horse's belly, and shouted in the direction of Liu Beijun:

"Big Ear, come to the rescue quickly..."

"Uh-huh!" Deputy General Zhang Xun coughed heavily at the side.

Yuan Shu came to his senses all of a sudden, and hurriedly shouted: "Xuande come to help me quickly!"

After saying that, Yuan Shu led Zhang Xun, Qiao Rui and others quickly towards Liu Bei.

Liu Bei led Gao Shun to meet Yuan Shu, he came in front of Yuan Shu, cupped his hands at him and said: "Roadway, you can quickly go to the rear, I will stop the pursuers myself!"

A bit of embarrassment appeared on Yuan Shu's face, and he thanked him repeatedly.

However, when he looked behind Liu Bei, the three thousand elite sergeants trapped in the camp, jealousy quickly flashed in his eyes.

What a well-equipped and neatly groomed infantry...

Why is Liu Bei in charge of such an elite army?

Why don’t we, the Yuan family in Runan? !

No, it's me, Yuan Shu. Why don't you have such elite infantry?

What an injustice!

Although Yuan Shu didn't say anything, the look in his eyes fully revealed the jealousy in his heart at this moment.

And all this did not escape Liu Bei's eyes.

Liu Bei thought to himself, it's already this time, don't forget to compare with others!

This Yuan Gonglu is really hopeless!
But Liu Bei didn't care so much, he immediately ordered Gao Shun to spread out the three thousand camps and prepare to meet the enemy!
Xia Houyuan's troops pursued Yuan Shu closely, and soon the reinforcements on the opposite side appeared in their sights.

The infantry lined up in a neat formation, looking mysterious and solemn under the sunlight.

Xia Houyuan narrowed his eyes, thinking carefully.

Ling Cao said from the side: "Lieutenant, the character Liu is written on the banner of the soldiers and horses opposite!"

"I heard that Liu Bei from Qingzhou had led his troops to Tancheng a few days ago. I think it must be Liu Bei who led his troops to support Yuan Shu. I don't have Cao Cao's military order, so I can't fight him. I might as well retreat first."

Without thinking, Xia Houyuan suddenly said firmly: "Attack!"

"..."

The horn sounded loudly, and the passionate sound tore through the sky and went straight to the sky.

Gao Shun was quite surprised and said: "That army is just a pursuit army, but it wants to attack our reinforcements? What's the reason?"

Holding a double-strand sword, Liu Bei looked at the big flag with the word "Xiahou" printed on the soldiers and horses in the distance, heaved a long breath, and said helplessly:

"Xiahoudun killed himself in front of Zilong in the past, and I was the one who ruled Zilong and Cao Jun in the past. It seems that Xiahoudun's hatred is counted on my head."

"Zhong Sui, prepare your troops, line up, and fight!"

"Here... line up!!"

"Ziyi, you also made meritorious service in battle!"

"promise!"

Following Gao Shun's order, he was trapped in the camp, and the soldiers with spears moved to the front one after another!
The soldiers in the camp were all dressed in scale armor, with pockets on their heads, and ferocious beasts adorned their chests and helmets.

They walked neatly and moved in unison. Everyone had serious eyes and determined expressions. Everyone had a straight face and tight lips. Everyone held their chests high. It seemed that they were very confident that they were the best soldiers in the world.

There is no doubt that this army has seen blood!
As soon as the army changed, a surge of aura surged towards Cao Jun like a tide.

It seems that it has been tempered for thousands of times and has passed through the flesh and blood of the enemy, but it is not stained with filth and its sharpness is not compromised.

Go forward without hesitation, defeat the powerful enemy, and seize the fierce generals. This is the way to trap the camp!
Soon, the chasing Cao army collided with the army trapped in the camp.

To be honest, the number of soldiers and horses that Cao Jun came to pursue this time is indeed higher than that of the trapped camp, but even if the number is doubled, it is tantamount to wishing to conquer the trapped camp.

Xia Houyuan took the lead and charged forward with his spear. Next to him were Ling Cao and Lu Dai. The three of them were like three sharp knives, rushing towards Liu Bei's army formation.

This is a penetrating tactic!

Xia Houyuan believed in force. He was good at military affairs and martial arts, and believed in the principle of fighting to save the world.

He had no mercy in his heart. In this battle of Xuzhou, he firmly believed that killing was the fastest pacification strategy, but Cao Cao did not agree.

But now, Cao Cao is not by his side, and his enemy Liu Bei is not far away,

Xia Houyuan has a group of personal soldiers who have the same thoughts as him. They are firm-willed and vicious in their methods. They don't care about life and death, their own and others'.

His army is a beast. They have wiped out all good thoughts long ago. They firmly believe that in battle after battle, using the blood and flesh of the enemy to sharpen their weapons and will is the best choice for war. .

Xia Houyuan successfully transformed them into an army of beasts in human form.

The soldiers of Cao Jun followed Xia Houyuan closely. He roared, turning over the army formation in Qingzhou like a plow turning over the soil, and went straight to where Liu Bei himself was.

Liu Bei looked at all this indifferently, stroking his beard, and seemed to be in no hurry.

Sure enough, although Cao Jun's army was powerful, it only broke through the front line of the trapped camp. When it reached the middle formation, the trapped camp's formation began to look stronger.

Suddenly, a huge black horse separated from the military formation and rushed straight towards Xia Houyuan.

The war horse was extremely fast, and in a blink of an eye, he led the soldiers who were in the battle to arrive in front of Xia Houyuan.

Xia Houyuan's eyes flashed, showing a trace of the excitement and impulsiveness of a beast when it sees blood.

His spear turned into a streak of white light and struck straight at it.

"boom!"

The halberd and the spear collided fiercely, and the brilliance of the collision illuminated the eyes of the two people. This move was evenly matched, and they were both pushed back by the huge impact.

Xia Houyuan looked at the opposite person in surprise, and shouted, "Who are you?"

"Donglai Taishici!"
