Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

"General, Cao Cao refuses to give up." The subordinate said again.

Xiahou Yuan gnashed his teeth and said, "No matter what, we have to escape!"

"Yes!" the subordinate responded.

Immediately, Xiahou Yuan led his subordinates and fled desperately.

It was not until dusk that Xiahou Yuan led the remaining troops and finally arrived under the city wall.

Cao Cao's army also caught up.

Cao Cao looked at Xiahou Yuan with a gloomy face, with flames of anger flashing in his eyes.

He had ordered the entire army to raid Xiahou Yuan's troops, but failed, and Xiahou Yuan escaped instead.

This was a great humiliation for Cao Cao.

"Cao Cao! You don't keep your promise!" Xiahou Yuan shouted angrily.

Cao Cao laughed and said, "Xiahou Yuan, you also know that I don't keep my word? If you know that, why do you still dare to stop me?"

Xiahou Yuan was silent. Indeed, he had already been defeated and there was nothing to defend himself.

But he would never admit defeat, even if it cost him a price.

"Xiahou Yuan, I, Cao Mengde, like you, but you are so ungrateful!" Cao Cao sneered.

Xiahou Yuan gnashed his teeth and said, "Cao Cao, you are so despicable that you actually used this method to humiliate me."

"Xiahou Yuan, so what if I humiliate you? There is no word 'despicable' in my dictionary, Cao Cao." Cao Cao sneered.

Xiahou Yuan gritted his teeth, he knew that he was no match for Cao Cao.

"Okay, don't waste time, kill!" Cao Cao gave the order to attack.

Xiahou Yuan's troops continued to retreat.

"General, it's better to surrender!" one of the soldiers advised.

"Surrender? Dream on!" Xiahou Yuan shouted coldly.

"Kill!" Cao Cao roared.

Xiahou Yuan gritted his teeth, he knew that his troops no longer had much combat power and he could only fight to the death.

"Kill!" Xiahou Yuan roared and rushed out first.

Cao Cao snorted coldly, he had already seen through Xiahou Yuan's intention.

"The entire army will attack Xiahou Yuan's troops!" Cao Cao shouted.

"Yes!" Cao's army formation quickly dispersed.

Wave after wave of arrows and kerosene fell on Xiahou Yuan's troops, who kept retreating.

"General, it's bad. The pursuers behind us are rushing up." A soldier shouted loudly.

Upon hearing this, Xiahou Yuan's face changed drastically and he quickly turned around. Sure enough, a group of Cao's troops had rushed up and were chasing his troops.

Xiahou Yuan shouted, "Cao Cao, you are despicable!"

"Hahaha! I am despicable, what can you do to me?!" Cao Cao laughed arrogantly.

"General, we only have 1,500 men left, plus Cao Cao's army, our losses are huge," the subordinate said anxiously.

Xiahou Yuan gritted his teeth. He had no choice but to keep moving forward.

Xiahou Yuan's troops became weaker and weaker, and were soon swallowed up by Cao Cao's troops.

"General."

"Retreat!" Xiahou Yuan shouted.

Xiahou Yuan led the remaining troops and fled hastily towards Luoyang.

"Chase them!" Cao Cao ordered.

"Yes!" Cao Cao's army immediately chased after them.

Along the way, Cao Cao's army kept slaughtering Xiahou Yuan's troops.

"General!"

Upon hearing this, Xiahou Yuan came to his senses, turned around and looked at his subordinates. There were only more than a thousand of them left.

"Kill them all!" Xiahou Yuan gritted his teeth and said. "Yes!"

Soon, Xiahou Yuan's subordinates were killed by Cao Cao's soldiers.

"General, what should we do?" asked a lieutenant colonel.

"Go back, back to camp!" said Xiahou Yuan.

Soon, Xiahou Yuan's troops returned to the camp.

"Report! General, something terrible has happened. Liu Bei's army has reached the rear of our food supply!" a soldier shouted in panic.

When Xiahou Yuan heard this, his face changed immediately. He didn't expect that his army would encounter danger as soon as it arrived in Luoyang.

"Pass the order down, the entire army retreat." Xiahou Yuan shouted.

"promise!"

Xiahou Yuan immediately ordered the army to retreat.

After hearing the news, Cao Cao's army immediately followed Xiahou Yuan's troops and left.

Xiahou Yuan's troops retreated and their food supplies were also affected.

"General, what should we do?" an adjutant asked hurriedly.

Xiahou Yuan sighed. Now he had no choice but to wait for Liu Bei's army to arrive.

Liu Bei's army soon arrived in Luoyang.

Xiahou Yuan's troops had already retreated, and Cao Cao had no choice but to withdraw his troops temporarily.

"Report! My lord, Cao Cao's army is heading towards Luoyang!" A scout quickly ran to Liu Bei, knelt down and reported.

"Cao Cao's army is coming?" Liu Bei was stunned. Could it be that Xiahou Yuan's army had already surrendered?
Liu Bei was a little doubtful. After all, Xiahou Yuan was his biggest enemy. If Xiahou Yuan defected to Cao Cao, his situation would be even more dangerous.

"General, Xiahou Yuan's troops have retreated. What should we do now?" the adjutant asked anxiously.

"Xiahou Yuan's troops have retreated?" Liu Bei was stunned. He never expected that Xiahou Yuan's troops would give up so easily.

"Yes, General, what should we do now?"

Liu Bei frowned. His situation was very dangerous now. Once Xiahou Yuan's troops joined forces with Cao Cao, his situation would become very difficult.

"Pass the order down, the entire army retreat!" Liu Bei gave the order immediately.

"promise!"

Liu Bei's troops retreated, and Cao Cao's troops followed suit.

Liu Bei's deployment was very clever. When Cao Cao's troops and Xiahou Yuan's troops joined together, Liu Bei's army retreated, while Xiahou Yuan's army did not pursue.

After Xiahou Yuan's army retreated, Liu Bei's troops also left, but they did not go to Luoyang.

Only after Xiahou Yuan's troops left did Cao Cao's army breathe a sigh of relief.

"Cao Cao, you are lucky this time." Xiahou Yuan said gritting his teeth.

"Xiahou Yuan, your doom has come!" Cao Cao snorted coldly.

"Cao Cao, your doomsday has come!" Xiahou Yuan snorted coldly.

"Hahaha! Xiahou Yuan, you really are a smart guy." Cao Cao sneered.

At this moment, a cavalry suddenly came galloping from a distance.

Xiahou Yuan saw at a glance that it was Liu Bei's army.

"Cao Cao, I told you, your doom is here!" Xiahou Yuan said gritting his teeth.

When Cao Cao saw this, his face changed drastically.

"retreat!"

Immediately, Cao Cao's troops turned around and retreated towards Luoyang, while Liu Bei's army continued to chase them in the direction of Luoyang.

Not long after Cao Cao's army left, Liu Bei received news that Xiahou Yuan's troops had left Luoyang and retreated to the southeast.

Liu Bei was overjoyed and immediately led his army to chase in the southeast direction.

At the same time, Cao Ang had arrived outside Luoyang City.

"General, this is Luoyang. It is said that there are many treasures there!" a soldier said excitedly. (End of this chapter)
