After receiving the news from Cao Cao, Liu Bei was very excited to find Lu Bu, and when Lu Bu heard that he was in Xiyang City, he no longer insisted on withdrawing his troops, and instead began to order the army to speed up and prepare to arrive at Xiyang City earlier.

This run all the way, but the soldiers under Liu Bei and Lu Bu were exhausted. When it was almost dark, Liu Bei found Lu Bu with a dark face.

"Fengxian, our soldiers and horses have been running wildly since late last night, and now there is only one day left to go to Xiyang City. No matter what, let the soldiers rest tonight, otherwise we will arrive at Xiyang. City, how can we set up defenses?" Liu Bei said angrily.

However, Lu Bu shook his head and said, "Xuande, you know that there is only one day left. Let's let the soldiers persevere. When we arrive at Xiyang City, let the soldiers rest enough!"

"Fengxian, that Liu Rui's army is now blocked by Meng De and Bo Fu, and there are some old, weak, sick and disabled people left in Liu Rui's city nearby. If you insist on hurrying, Do you want to exhaust all these soldiers to death?" Liu Bei couldn't help but get a little angry, this Lu Bu, who was eager to run away, now that Cao Cao and Sun Ce have given in so much, he is still so anxious, and he doesn't care. Know what to be afraid of.

Hearing Liu Bei's words, Lu Bu blushed a little, and even said: "What did Xuande say? I just want to return to Xuzhou early. When we arrive at Xiyang City, it will be safe!"

But after seeing Liu Bei's face, Lu Bu said helplessly, "Then why don't we camp and rest tonight!"

Liu Bei nodded and ordered the soldiers to prepare to camp.Last night, Lu Bu was so winded that he had to let the army drive all night in the middle of the night, but all the soldiers were exhausted.

Not only ordinary soldiers, but even Liu Bei and other generals felt a little overwhelmed, so Liu Bei insisted on setting up camp.

It's just that Liu Bei and the others didn't see them. In the valley behind where they camped, two figures were looking out from afar.

"Fengxiao, let our soldiers eat some dry food. After this battle is over, we can go back to deal with Cao Cao and Sun Ce!" Liu Rui looked at Guo Jia next to him and ordered. , , .

752: Raid Launch

Liu Rui put Gao Shun behind Cao Cao and Sun Ce, and pretended to attack every day, dragging Cao Cao and Sun Ce's army too far.

Liu Rui himself, and Guo Jia led the elite army of the headquarters, bypassing the road of Cao Cao and Sun Ce, and came here from a distance.

At the beginning, Liu Rui was able to hang far away from the army of Liu Bei and Lu Bu, trying to find an opportunity to attack each other.However, to Liu Rui's surprise, from last night, Liu Bei and Lu Bu didn't know what the wind was, and they suddenly rushed like crazy.If it weren't for the large number of cavalry under Liu Rui's command, I'm afraid they would be lost this time.

Thinking of this, Liu Rui looked at Guo Jia, who was beside him, and said with a smile: "Fengxiao, you said that Liu Bei and Lu Bu were in a hurry last night, why are they not in a hurry now?"

Guo Jia smiled with his hands together: "My lord, according to the current direction of Liu Bei and Lu Bu's march, I am afraid that the other party wants to defend Xiyang City. Xiyang City is very close to Yuzhou, not far from Xuzhou, Yangzhou. Where to alternate defenses, after entering Yuzhou, you can each return to your own territory!"

"That's it, no wonder Liu Bei and Lu Bu were in a hurry yesterday, they wanted to escape to Xiyang City!" Liu Rui chuckled lightly, then looked at the army of Liu Bei and Lu Bu who were revolting in the distance, and laughed. Said: "But now they have no chance."

While the two were talking and laughing, a few generals came to the side, it was Li Cunxiao, Xiang Yu, Zhao Yun, and others. Seeing these people, Liu Rui said with a smile: "Everyone, we have been chasing for a long time, and now we are not It's time to close the net!"

"My lord, this place is located in the plain. I'm afraid that if Liu Bei insists on fleeing, it will be difficult to pursue him!" Zhao Yun cupped his hands and said, and what he said also caused the generals to nod again and again.

Hearing Zhao Yun's words, Liu Rui said with a smile: "Don't worry about Zilong, the military advisor has already arranged everything." After that, Liu Rui looked at Guo Jia and said with a smile: "Fengxiao, it's better now Let's assign tasks to the generals first!"

Guo Jia nodded, and then said: "General Zilong, I will need you to lead a cavalry to the south, where there is a valley, the road to Jiangxia, as long as you block it, these soldiers and horses will There is absolutely no way to escape!"

Zhao Yun took the lead, and then hurried to mobilize the troops.Guo Jia, on the other hand, looked at Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao, who were on the side, and said, "General Xiang Yu, General Cunxiao, you two need to run farther with your cavalry. From here to Xiyang City, there are two roads. It can be blocked here, and when the lord and I attack Liu Bei and Lu Bu, their troops and horses will definitely run wildly in the direction of Xiyang City!"

Xiang Yu and Li Cunxiao both looked at each other and said in unison, "Don't worry, military advisor, with us, we will never let Liu Bei and Lu Bu go!"

Guo Jia nodded, then turned to look at Li Ruohai, who was on the side, and cupped his hands: "General Ruohai, then the north side needs to be handed over to you!"

Li Ruohai nodded, and also strode away to lead his troops and prepare to set off.

In the next time, Guo Jia ordered Guo Ziyi, Yue Fei, Li Jing and others to lead the troops to arrange around, while Liu Rui was preparing to lead the remaining troops to attack Liu Bei and Lu Bu.Xiaoshuowa novel network www.xiaoshuowa.com

After this arrangement was completed, the whole world had become gloomy, and at this moment the sun was setting, and the line of sight became a little unclear.

The army of Liu Bei and Lu Bu was burying the pot and making meals. There were still many soldiers who had been rushing through this night and day. They were already exhausted and exhausted. They just had to build a camp under the orders of the officers. Therefore, the soldiers under Liu Bei and Lu Bu are now weak.

It was also at this moment that the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded in the distance. This sound made countless soldiers stunned.

Liu Bei and Lu Bu were also shocked. They were about to lead their troops to defend, but they suddenly heard loud laughter from a distance: "Brothers, we are the troops of Gunzhou!"

The soldiers and horses of Gunzhou are naturally Cao Cao's soldiers and horses. When they were in Xinye, the soldiers and horses of the princes were arranged in a disorderly manner, so these soldiers knew this.And the person who was shouting at this moment also spoke with a strong Gonzhou accent.

Liu Bei and the countless soldiers in Lu Bu's army were originally very nervous, but now they all sighed in relief when they heard this shouting.However, it was at this moment that Liu Bei suddenly screamed: "They are not Cao Jun's cavalry, they are Liu Rui! It is Liu Rui!"

Liu Bei's roar instantly terrified all the soldiers!They drove all night, and they were exhausted after walking. There are still many soldiers waiting eagerly for the army to make food to satisfy their hunger, but they did not expect that Liu Rui's army was waiting for this meal before they reached their mouths. !

For a time, the entire army of Liu Bei and Lu Bu was in a panic!Their main camp has just been built a little, and many soldiers have been working hard all day, and they have just collapsed on the ground, but they all have to support their bodies.

Liu Bei stopped the defense in a panic, but now that the entire camp has turned into a pot of porridge, how can his orders be conveyed?

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw! Immediately withdraw to Xiyang City!" At this moment, Liu Bei was also very regretful. If he followed Lu Bu's non-stop rush, he probably wouldn't have been caught up by Liu Rui.

And Liu Bei's order made the entire army even more chaotic, and countless soldiers fled frantically towards the east.

But it was at this time that Liu Rui's cavalry had already arrived!When they were in Xinye before, the feudal army and Liu Rui's army fought several times. These Xuzhou soldiers had a deep memory of Liu Rui's cavalry. Now that they saw these cavalry kill, they couldn't even think of resistance. All fleeing without looking back.

And Liu Rui, of course, unceremoniously led the cavalry army under his command to charge back and forth.In a short period of time, Liu Bei's troops and horses have already lost a lot.

Seeing Liu Rui's cavalry slaughtering wildly in the rear, Liu Bei's heart twitched, but now the soldiers are in chaos, Liu Bei's soldiers and horses have been mixed with Lu Bu's soldiers and horses, and they can't tell the order at all. In the middle, Liu Bei could only do his best to gather the troops, wanting to retain a little resistance in the next Liu Rui's pursuit. , , .

753: Containment of Lu Bu

Liu Bei gathered his men and horses here, hoping to have more protection in the next escape. After he took out Liu Rui's cavalry attack range, Liu Bei looked at the rear in shock.

At this moment, Liu Bei and Lu Bu had quite a few men and horses in their hands. Even Liu Rui had no way to eliminate them all in the first place. He could only use cavalry to divide a part of them and gradually digest them.

This also gave Liu Bei some time to breathe. At this moment, Liu Bei has gradually recovered from the initial panic, when even he shouted: "Gather the troops immediately, and immediately take our soldiers. The horses are all gathered!"

In addition to Liu Bei, Pang Tong, Sima Yi and others always kept calm when they were attacked, and they were the first to let the soldiers and horses on the other side of the camp withdraw from the camp, while Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and others also followed Liu Bei's instructions. Shouting and gathering people and horses.

Gradually, Liu Bei's army has recovered more than half of its troops. Although the system is still in chaos, and the troops of various generals have all been disrupted and mixed together, at least these soldiers have begun to regain their senses under the influence of Liu Bei. .

But at this time, Liu Bei discovered another problem.After the attack on the camp just now, Liu Bei had never seen Lu Bu, but when he looked up, he still could not find Lu Bu.

"Yide, where is Fengxian?" Seeing Zhang Fei passing by, Liu Bei hurriedly asked.

Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Brother, Lu Fengxian has never appeared, maybe he has already run away!"
