Chen Gong sighed all the way and followed Liu Bei towards the camp.
Suddenly, Chen Gong reined in the horse and made the horse stop.
When Liu Bei saw Chen Gong stop, he hurriedly asked: "Gongtai, why did you stop suddenly? Our camp is facing threats, and the baggage and food will be destroyed by Wang Can's soldiers. Hurry up and retreat!"
Chen Gong frowned deeply and said sternly: "Mr.
They set up an ambush on the road. Didn’t we just fall into their scheme? We may fall into an ambush when we return to the camp this time!"
After Liu Bei heard this, his face suddenly changed.
Damn it, it was all the trouble caused by that idiot Yuan Shu.
Liu Bei looked uncertain. After some hesitation, he said: "Gongtai, even though we know that Lü Meng's soldiers may set up an ambush on the road, our food, grass and baggage are all in the camp. Once the food and grass are destroyed by the soldiers led by Lü Meng,
The army will mutiny immediately, and no matter whether the front is a mountain of knives or a sea of fire, they must go back."
Liu Bei raised his head slightly, his expression resolute, showing a strong and domineering look.
Go ahead to dangers.
However, this was just a decision Liu Bei had to make after weighing his interests.
Chen Gong nodded and said, "What Mr. Xuande said makes sense, let's continue on our way."
After finishing speaking, Chen Gong reached out and patted the horse's back, and galloped forward. Seeing the worried expression on Chen Gong's face, Liu Bei continued: "Don't worry, I have sent all the scouts to the front to find out the news.
As long as Lü Meng's ambush is detected, we will kill them all, and with Yide here, we are not afraid of Lü Meng's army."
Zhang Fei held the Zhangba Snake Spear and said carelessly: "What the eldest brother said is that I, Zhang Fei, are here to ensure the safety of the eldest brother and Mr. Chen. Alas, it would be great if the second brother is here."
When Zhang Fei mentioned Guan Yu, Liu Bei suddenly stopped talking.
Based on Liu Bei's experience, it is speculated that Guan Yu was probably captured or killed, but Guan Yu's body was not revealed, which gave Liu Bei some hope.
Chen Gong was worried about Lu Bu, so he did not say anything and retreated with his soldiers.
The army rushed to the camp, but no soldiers of Lü Meng were found along the way. Not only that, not even a scout was encountered. This situation made Liu Bei puzzled, because Yuan Shu said that Lü Meng's army was coming towards the camp. Why?
How about not meeting anyone?
After Liu Bei, Chen Gong and Zhang Fei returned to the camp, they immediately ordered soldiers to strengthen the defense of the camp.
Then, Liu Bei and his party came to Yuan Shu's tent.
Liu Bei looked serious and asked in a deep voice: "General Yuan, you sent a scout to say that Lu Meng led the soldiers to the camp to kill, but we rushed back all the way without even finding a person. Could it be that General Yuan is deliberately deceiving us? Hum.
, doesn’t General Yuan know that the army’s attack on Shangyong City has already resulted in the death and injury of countless soldiers, and the army suddenly withdrew and failed completely?”
Yuan Shu waved his hand and said: "Xuande, the scouts have indeed heard the news that Lu Meng is leading the army. It is definitely not false. If there is any falsehood, I, Yuan Shu, am willing to be struck by thunder from the sky and pierced by thousands of arrows."
Liu Bei snorted but said nothing.
The ancients valued oaths very much. Yuan Shu swore an oath with his own life, and Liu Bei immediately believed him.
However, the anger in Liu Bei's heart was difficult to eliminate.
Chen Gong thought about it carefully and said sternly: "Since the news from the scouts is not false, it is possible that Lü Meng was pretending to make a pretense and deliberately let our army return to the camp, while Lü Meng feinted a shot and led the troops.
Return to Shangyong City; however, it is also possible that Lu Meng led his soldiers to come, but did not catch up with our army and are on the way behind. It is difficult to speculate on the specific situation."
When Liu Bei heard this, he smiled helplessly.
As Chen Gong said, there are too many possibilities for Lu Meng's army and it is difficult to deduce.
At this time, the only way to determine the outcome is to send out scouts to inquire about the news and strengthen the defense of the camp.
Liu Bei rolled his eyes and said slowly: "General Yuan's soldiers suffered heavy losses and are resting in the camp. Gongtai and General Yuan are responsible for handling the military affairs of the camp, settling the soldiers, and at the same time strengthening the defense of the camp as much as possible. Well, I will dispatch immediately
The scouts under my command went to inquire about the news, and always paid attention to the situation of Lü Meng's army, lest they lead the army to attack the camp."
When Yuan Shu heard this, he immediately agreed.
He didn't complete the task and felt wrong, so he didn't have the confidence to speak out.
Now Liu Bei was magnanimous and did not pursue the responsibility for this matter. Yuan Shu felt much better and was willing to cooperate with Chen Gong in handling military affairs.
After listening to Liu Bei's words, Chen Gong nodded, then got up and returned to his tent.
When Lu Bu and Yuan Shu fought with Wang Can, they lost so many soldiers that Liu Bei had the right to speak. Now Lu Bu and Yuan Shu's armies were completely dead and wounded, leaving only Liu Bei with soldiers, and Chen Gong had to appease Lu Bu.
The soldiers under his command could only rely on Liu Bei to send out information.
Liu Bei and Zhang Fei returned to the camp, and the two guests and host took their seats.
Zhang Fei said: "Brother, I thought about it carefully, and something might have happened to my second brother."
Zhang Fei has a bad temper and is tall and thick-looking, but it does not mean that Zhang Fei is a fool. When he and Liu Bei attacked the city together, Guan Yu did not show up; when they opened the city gate, Guan Yu still did not show up;
Now that the war is over, Guan Yu still has not returned.
In this situation, Zhang Fei was very worried.
Liu Bei sighed and said, "This is all my fault. If I hadn't been greedy and wanted to enter the city first and occupy the upper reaches, I wouldn't have let my second brother take the risk. Now my second brother is leading the soldiers."
Entering the city, but there is no news at all, you must be in danger, otherwise there will be no news!"
Zhang Fei saw Liu Bei's sad expression and hurriedly comforted him: "Brother, my second brother is extremely skilled in martial arts. It is rare that he will encounter an opponent, so he will not be in danger. I am just talking, just talking."
Liu Bei smiled to himself and said: "Well, now we can only wait for the news. I hope my second brother is okay!" After a pause, Liu Bei said in a deep voice: "If something happens to your second brother, I will go to Yongcheng with blood to save my second brother.
revenge!"
Zhang Fei nodded solemnly, his expression looking a little heavy.
The two of them looked at each other in silence, but there was a rush of footsteps outside the camp.
A scout commander opened the door of the camp, ran in quickly, bowed to Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, then clasped his fists and said: "My lord, the general has discovered Lu Meng's army. They are chasing towards the camp. However,
The soldiers gathered by Lu Bu also returned to the camp. The two sides were in front of each other. It is very likely that they would encounter each other and then a big battle would break out."
After Liu Bei heard this, he raised his eyebrows.
Just as Chen Gong guessed, Lu Meng did not catch up with them, but was left behind.
However, this illustrates one point, that is, when Liu Bei and Chen Gong were still outside Shangyong City, the soldiers led by Lu Meng had not yet arrived at Shangyong City, and they were still far away from their camp. Lu Meng was just
He made the idea of attacking the camp, but Yuan Shu was timid and feared that the camp would be lost, so he asked Liu Bei to lead his soldiers to return reinforcements.
As a result, Liu Bei lost the opportunity to attack Shangyong City.
The more Liu Bei thought about it, the angrier he became. He slammed the table and cursed: "Idiot, idiot!"
He cursed twice in succession, but a flash of light flashed in his mind, and he felt that the opportunity he had been waiting for had come. Liu Bei raised his head, looked at the scout who reported the news, and asked in a deep voice: "Have you found out that Lu Meng and Lu Bu may have encountered each other?"
How many people know about the news? Has the news spread?"
The scout leader immediately said: "Replying to my lord, the news has not been spread. We are the only people who know."
When Liu Bei heard this, he stood up immediately.
The opportunity has really come.
