The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 109

When Dongfang Sheng saw Guan Yu and Zhang Fei running away, he didn't let the soldiers of Feiying Battalion chase after him. He made a plan that Xiahoudun would guard the back door, and he would guard the front door. The two would not leave their positions no matter what.

When Liu Bei led Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to the back door of the camp, a group of strong men blocked their way.

The leading general was Cao Cao's confidant Xiahou Dun. At this time, he was wearing a black and shiny cowhide armor, holding a silver-white long spear and was coming straight up.

"Is it Xiahou Dun who is here?" Liu Bei also raised his sword and asked.

"Hmph, who are you?" Although Xiahou Dun vaguely knew Liu Bei's identity, he didn't want to give him face.

"You dare to despise my brother?" Zhang Fei impatiently heard Xiahou Dun's tone, and immediately came out with a steel spear and said, "Eat me!"

Xiahou Dun was also polite, and the two immediately wrestled together.

The soldiers around Xiahou Dun also rushed forward, drowning Liu Bei and Guan Yu in an instant.

"Call the third brother back quickly, let's take the opportunity to rush out!" Liu Bei shouted, tugging at Guan Yu's sleeve.

Zhang Fei was scattered by the soldiers behind him before he had fought Xiahoudun for many rounds, but fortunately Liu Bei and Guan Yu had already squeezed to his side, surrounded him and went out of the camp.

"Catch Liu Bei alive, a reward of one hundred taels!"

Seeing that Liu Bei and the others were about to squeeze out of the camp, Xiahou Dun hurriedly shouted.But at this time, there was no way to recover, and Liu Bei and the others broke through a hole in chaos and fled directly.

When Xiahou Dun saw that Liu Bei and the others had run away with a small group of people, he could only sigh and join Dongfang Sheng.

Dongfang Shengyi saw Xiahoudun leading his troops over dejectedly, and knew in his heart that Liu Bei had escaped.

"Brother Tenglong, I had an arrangement to defeat you, and I was run away by that guy Liu Bei." Xia Houdun originally wanted to take the opportunity to make a contribution, but he didn't expect to be run away by Liu Bei.

"I'm afraid Liu Bei lost a lot of people this time, but we won a big victory." Dongfang Sheng said with a smile.

It seems that Liu Bei and the others will not die so early, and they should meet again in the future.Dongfang Sheng thought to himself.

When Xiahou Dun heard Dongfang Sheng's words, he immediately came to his senses, touched his head with his hand and said, "Yes, we have won a complete victory, and I will tell the lord right away."

Gongsun Zan's three-way reinforcements were soon defeated by the coalition forces of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, and among them, Liu Bei's troops retreated the fastest.

Cao Cao did not immediately return to Dongjun with his troops, but took Dongfang Sheng and the others directly to Juancheng County in Jiyin County, which happened to be handed over to Chenliu County where Yuan Shu was located.

The reason why Yuan Shu came to Chenliu County in Yanzhou was because Liu Biao cut off his food supply.

At this time, Yuan Shu had not yet reached the point of betraying relatives, so after he set up his army in Fengqiu, the Black Mountain Army and Yu Fuluo, the right sage king of the Huns, came to join him, and there was a huge momentum for a while.

Yuan Shu sent his general Liu Xiang to guard Kuangting, while he himself guarded Fengqiu.

He wants to nibble away at Yanzhou step by step. Now Cao Cao is considered a relatively weak one among the princes. Of course, the persimmons are soft, and the more territory they occupy, the more land and people, and Yuan Shu's ambition can also be slightly obtained. Some meet.

Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are half brothers, but Yuan Shu looks down on Yuan Shao very much.

The reason is that Yuan Shao came from a concubine and came from a humble background, while Yuan Shu came from a descendant and considered himself noble.The most important reason was that Yuan Shu wanted to proclaim himself emperor, but Yuan Shao didn't want him to proclaim himself emperor.

Due to differences in political opinions and their own contradictions, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, the two brothers who were supposed to work together, were in dire straits. Instead of cooperating together, Yuan Shao joined forces with Cao Cao to attack Yuan Shu.

For this reason, Yuan Shu also specially wrote letters to the princes from all walks of life. In the letter, he scolded Yuan Shao's background, and also said that the princes from all walks of life would join forces with his slave Yuan Shao, which is really ridiculous.

Of course, although the princes from all walks of life have been fighting openly and secretly, their attitudes towards Yuan Shu are basically the same, and most of them are not bewitched by his words.

After hearing the news, Dongfang Sheng said to Wang Hu with some puzzlement: "Aren't Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu half-brothers? How could there be such a trouble between them?"

Wang Hu on the side spoke out what he had heard from Xiahoudun about the two brothers Yuan Shao in one breath.

Only then did Dongfang Sheng understand the difference between a concubine and a concubine. Yuan Shao was the product of the unintentional union between his father and an unnamed maid. This kind of child was called an illegitimate child in ancient times.

But illegitimate children have no status, and the reason why Yuan Shu considers himself noble is based on this reason.However, it happened that this illegitimate son of the Yuan family was doing well and was better than Yuan Shu, the legitimate son in every way. How could Yuan Shu accept this?

"My lord, I heard that the Black Mountain Army has also joined Yuan Shu this time." Wang Hu and Xiahou Dun have already become one, so Wang Hu can also learn a lot of confidential things.

Montenegro Army!As soon as he heard about the Black Mountain Army, Dongfang Sheng thought of Tao Sheng, the traitor who killed the nameless Black Mountain Army.

If Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were not still in the honeymoon period, I would definitely have caught you in front of me and chopped you up, but I will let you dance for a while for now.A trace of evil flashed in Dongfang Sheng's eyes.

"This Yuan Shu actually colluded with Yu Fuluo, the Right Wise King of the Huns. I don't know if Duke Cao can stand it this time?" Wang Hu sighed.

"Youxian King Yu Fuluo?" Dongfang Sheng heard the Huns for the first time, and asked curiously, "Are the Huns very strong?"

"Haha, since the founding of the Han Dynasty, the Xiongnu have been suppressed by us. If it weren't for the fact that all the heroes have risen together and the princes have divided their regimes, they would have been here for a while?" Wang Hu said disdainfully.

Because the Xiongnu are nomads, they mainly use cavalry. The cavalry is not effective in attacking the city, but it is very mobile. It is best used to plunder property and population.

"General, my lord, please come over." A soldier of Cao Cao said at the door.

"Okay, I'll come right away." Dongfang Sheng turned to Wang Hu and said, "You call Zhao Kai over and wait for me."

"Here!"

Wang Hu took the order to leave.

Dongfang Sheng tidied up his clothes and hurried to Cao Cao's military tent, where a group of generals had already been seated.

After meeting with Cao Cao, Dongfang Sheng greeted the generals and sat next to Xiahou Dun.

"Okay, everyone has arrived." Cao Cao pointed to the map nailed on the wooden board in the army tent and said, "Look, Yuan Shu is now stationed in Fengqiu, Chenliu County, and he has sent his subordinate Liu Xiang to guard at Changyuan. Kuangting in the county, do you have a good plan to defeat the enemy?"

Dongfang Sheng took a closer look at where Cao Cao pointed. Changyuan County is not too far from Dongjun and Juancheng.
