Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 586 Abandoning the Changsha
The news that Wu Shun personally commanded the cavalry to attack Changshe soon spread.

Liu Biao was in dire straits in Jingzhou and had no strength left to support Cao Cao.Gan Ning and Sun Ce were stirring up wind and rain in Jingzhou, and Liu Biao was heartbroken.

When the news reached Xuzhou, Liu Bei was also restless!
Cao Cao's defeat will not do him any good.If it is normal, Liu Bei can't say that he has to make some small moves.

But now, Wu Shun led the Wuling Army to attack the Central Plains, and Cao Cao was struggling to resist in the front. At this time, he was thinking about how to help Cao Cao.

Now Liu Bei and Cao Cao, Liu Biao are on the same boat.He understands that if the ship is to be successful, the only way is to unite with sincerity and fight against Yizhou together!
"Mr. Yuanlong, the Wuling army is aggressively attacking the Central Plains, and Cao Gong led the army to resist. I, Xuzhou, and Cao Hong belong to the alliance. How can we provide assistance?"

In Xuzhou City, Liu Bei and Chen Deng discussed countermeasures.

Although Cao Cao wanted to attack Xuzhou more than once, but now their interests are one, and Liu Bei really wants to help.

"My lord, the Wuling Army has captured Xingyang, and is currently fighting in Changshe, Zhongmou, against Cao Cao. General Xu Chu of the Cao Army was seriously injured in the fight with Zhang Xiong. Now facing the Wuling Army, what Cao Army lacks is a top general!"

Chen Deng said.

Cao Cao has no shortage of ordinary soldiers.What is missing is a general who can compete with the generals of the Wuling Army!

"So, do you have to work hard for the two virtuous brothers?"

Liu Bei looked at his two sworn brothers and said.

"Brother, how to fight, just tell me."

Zhang Fei said boldly.He hasn't done anything for a long time, and he has been very itchy recently.

"Brother, a certain person is willing to lead the troops to Changsha!"

Guan Yu said.

Liu Bei was very satisfied with the fighting spirit of his two brothers:
"You two virtuous brothers, when fighting against the Wuling army, you must not be brave. This time, to help Duke Cao, you only need to defeat the Wuling army."

"Don't worry, brother, I will listen to brother."

Zhang Fei promised.

"Sir, if this is the case, Xuzhou will have to trouble Mr. to sit in charge."

Liu Bei took Chen Deng's hand and said seriously.

"My lord, don't worry, my subordinates will take good care of Xuzhou."

Over the years, Xuzhou has indeed developed greatly under Liu Bei's governance.Chen Deng is also very optimistic about Liu Bei.

Chen Deng was very touched when he showed his true feelings to Liu Bei.

"Second brother, third brother, order the soldiers and horses, and send troops to Changsha immediately to resist the Wuling army!"

"yes, Sir!"

In this way, instead of aiding Liu Biao, Liu Bei sent troops to Changshe to help Cao Cao.The battle in the Jingzhou area was fought by the navy, and Liu Bei couldn't help if he wanted to.

Wu Shun attacked Changshe City by building earth slopes, but failed in the end!
Cao Jun's will to resist was too strong. In the end, Cao Jun's soldiers would rather die than take a step back.

In this case, the casualties of the Wuling army increased, and Wu Shun immediately ordered the retreat.

It is very unwise to use cavalry to consume Cao's army.

Although they failed to capture Changshe in the first battle, the Wuling Army also put a lot of pressure on Cao Jun to defend the city.The cavalry fought the siege like this, enough to shock the world!
If it happens again, Cao Cao is not sure that he can stop it!

Cao Cao has always been thankful that Wu Shun is not a cold-blooded person, and he is unwilling to exchange cavalry for a city.Otherwise, the Wuling Army's cavalry will lose one-third, and they will definitely be able to capture Changshe!
After the failure of the siege, Wu Shun led his troops to set up camp at twenty miles from Changshe.Every day I think about adding some obstacles to Cao Cao.

"My lord, good news!"

Suddenly, Xu Shu rushed in from outside the camp with joy on his face.

"Yuanzhi, is there something good? Did the second brother capture Zhongmu?"

Xu Shu rarely showed joy.Now that he looks like this, something good should happen.

"Zhongmu has not been captured yet, but good things have indeed happened."

Xu Shu said.

"What a good thing, tell me quickly."

Wu Shun urged.

"The scouts have found out that Liu Bei led 3 horses and is rushing to Changshe with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei."

Xu Shu, the military commander of the Wuling Army, is probably the only one who can see this as a good thing when the enemy has reinforcements.

But for Wu Shun, Liu Bei is just in time.He was worried that he couldn't make trouble for Cao Cao, so the three Liu Bei brothers came here in a hurry.

"Haha, Liu Bei came at the right time. Cao Cao must have got the news. Let's act first!"

Wu Shun said.

If Liu Bei enters the city, Cao Cao will have no pressure to guard the Changshe.Therefore, the Wuling Army cannot let Liu Bei approach Changshe.

"My lord, you can send a large army to set up an ambush to surround Liu Bei and draw out Cao's army!"

At the critical moment, Xu Shu's thoughts gushed like a spring.Immediately planned a countermeasure.

"Okay, let's do it!"

After Wu Shun listened, he immediately made a decision.

First ambush Liu Bei, lead Cao Cao out, and then turn back to fight Cao Cao.The Wuling army here is all cavalry, so it is not possible for Cao Cao and Liu Bei to attack.

In fact, in Wu Shun's mind, only Guan Yu and Zhang Fei could catch the 3 horses from Xuzhou.Everything else is just scum.

After making a decision, Wu Shun ordered to beat the drums and gather the generals, ready to distribute the tasks!
"My lord, are you going to attack the city?"

When they came to Shuai Zhang, Wei Yan was the first to ask.

"There is nothing more satisfying than siege."

Wu Shun didn't say it clearly, which tickled Zhang Xiong's little heart.

After a while, everyone arrived.

Wu Shun talked about Liu Bei's coming to rescue Cao Cao, and then deployed directly.

Zhao Yun led [-] Qilin cavalry and went to the designated location first to check and find the ambush terrain.Wei Yan led [-] green dragon cavalry to ambush.

The [-] Xiliang iron cavalry and the personal guard battalion are preparing to ambush Cao Jun in the rear!

After the arrangement was made, the various regiments of the Wuling Army moved quickly.

……

"My lord, something is wrong. Liu Bei's [-] troops are besieged by the Wuling army, unable to break through!"

In Changshe City, Cao Cao got the bad news.

"Feng Xiao, Liu Bei came to help, but was surrounded by the Wuling army. To save or not to save?"

Cao Cao's tone was flat, and he couldn't hear the emotional fluctuations.It seems that Liu Bei's life and death has nothing to do with him.

"This is a conspiracy. The Wuling army besieged Liu Bei's army. They didn't destroy it immediately. They just wanted to lure our army out of the city. Liu Bei is here to support us, so we must be rescued!"

Guo Jia analyzed.

Cao Cao can not save Liu Bei, but in this way, it will have a great impact on Cao Cao.

Your allies came to save you, but you were accidentally surrounded, but you refused to save them. Who would dare to form an alliance with you in the future?
"How to save? The army is out of the city, it is no match for the Wuling army!"

Cao Cao said helplessly.

Nearly [-] cavalrymen of the Wuling Army outside the city were afraid even thinking about it.

"If you want to save Liu Bei, you can only give up the Changsha. How to decide, please let the Lord decide!"

Guo Jiadao.

If fewer people went to Cao Jun, the Wuling Army would be able to kill Cao Jun by turning around.

If there are too many people going, the Wuling army can bypass Cao's army and come directly to attack Changshe.At that time, the Changshe was empty and could not hold on to it at all.

Now Cao Cao has only two choices, one is not to save Liu Bei, and concentrate on defending the city.The second is to abandon the Changsha and dispatch the whole army to save Liu Bei!

Cao Cao paced back and forth, and it took a long time before he made up his mind: "Give up Changsha and save Liu Bei!"
