Under the night, the fire was shining into the sky.
The sound of messy and rapid footsteps kept coming, breaking the silent night sky.
When Liu Bei and Zhang Fei led their armies to the fighting place, the battlefield was full of broken limbs and broken arms, and the scene was desolate and tragic. The injured soldiers were lying on the ground screaming and sighing. Those who chose to kneel down and surrender
The soldiers remained where they were, waiting for Liu Bei to arrive.
When these soldiers heard the footsteps and saw Liu Bei's soldiers, they seemed to have seen a life-saving straw and were very excited.
Most of the soldiers were soldiers under Liu Bei's command.
Lu Bu was killed by Dian Wei, Gan Ning and Pang De. These soldiers did not feel any guilt and naturally returned to the army and became Liu Bei's soldiers again. Liu Bei rode on his horse and looked around the battlefield. He led the troops on their way.
By that time, scouts had been sent out to inquire about the news, and they also learned that Lu Bu had been killed.
Liu Bei was the happiest when Lu Bu died.
However, Liu Bei did not show the slightest excitement, but made a gesture of inquiry.
He summoned several soldiers under Lu Bu's command and inquired about the situation in front of all the soldiers. At the same time, Liu Bei blamed himself bitterly, regretting that it was too late.
Liu Bei shouted loudly, saying that if he had come with his soldiers earlier, he would have been able to save Lu Bu. These words moved the soldiers under Lu Bu's command to tears. But the soldiers who followed Liu Bei had no expression on their faces. They knew that Liu Bei had killed him.
Killed the soldiers sent by Lu Bu to deliver the message, until Liu Bei and his soldiers stopped advancing.
It can be said that Lu Bu's death was caused by Liu Bei.
The soldiers knew this well but would not say it out loud because they also wanted Lu Bu to die.
Moreover, they were not soldiers under Lu Bu's command, but Liu Bei's soldiers, so they were naturally loyal to Liu Bei.
Zhang Fei glanced at the surrounding situation with an indifferent expression, rode his horse to Liu Bei's side, and asked in a low voice: "Brother, Lu Bu was killed, Lu Meng, Dian Wei and others did not retreat for a long time. They should not have gone far. We
Should we catch up and take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill them?"
Liu Bei shook his head and ordered: "Since we haven't caught up, there is no need to chase. Prepare to withdraw your troops."
"promise!"
Zhang Fei replied sadly, but he was still very excited, because Lu Bu died and the white-eyed wolf was finally killed. It was so happy. When Zhang Fei was happy, he suddenly thought of Guan Yu for some reason, and thought that Guan Yu had not yet
Any news, I feel uncomfortable in my heart.
Liu Bei asked his soldiers to clear the battlefield, and then retreated with his soldiers.
The army returned in vain, and when they returned to the camp, it was already bright.
When Chen Gong learned that Liu Bei had returned to camp with his soldiers, he hurriedly ran to Liu Bei's tent. Liu Bei led his troops to rescue Lü Bu, traveled all night, and slept overnight. However, Chen Gong was worried about Lü Bu's safety.
He hadn't slept a wink all night, there were dark circles under his eyes, and he looked tired and haggard.
Chen Gong bowed his head to Liu Bei and then sat down.
Liu Bei was heartbroken, and with a serious expression on his face, he said in a deep voice: "Gongtai, last night I led the troops to rescue General Lu. Although I galloped all the way, I was a step too late. As a result, Lu Meng killed General Lu and had already led the army to retreat.
. Alas, now that General Lu has been killed, Bei has an unshirkable responsibility. If I could have arrived earlier, this situation would not be like this."
As he spoke, Liu Bei stretched out his hand and wiped his eyes, making an expression of regret.
When Chen Gong heard this, his body was shaking as if struck by lightning.
Lu Bu was killed, what should Xuzhou do?
Lu Bu only had a hair-length daughter at his knees. Even if he had a son, he was not yet an adult and could not take charge. Facing the wolf-like princes, without Lu Bu as the Optimus Prime, Xuzhou would definitely not be able to save it. Moreover, the wealthy people in Xuzhou learned that Lu Bu had been
After killing him, he will be ready to move and wait for an opportunity to rebel.
Chen Gong put his hand on his forehead with a solemn expression on his face.
Seeing this, Liu Bei said: "Gongtai, the matter has come to this, please show your condolences and comply with the situation!"
Chen Gong looked solemn, clasped his fists and said: "Mr. Xuande, Gong has important matters to attend to, so he must return to the camp first."
After finishing speaking, Chen Gong turned around and left Liu Bei's camp.
After Chen Gong left the camp, another burly man walked out from behind the screen of the camp. This man was naturally Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei's eyes widened, his brows furrowed, and he said: "Brother, didn't you say that once Lu Bu died, there would be
Are you 100% sure of conquering Chen Gong? Why didn't you ask for persuasion and instead let Chen Gong leave?"
Liu Bei said: "Third brother, things depend on the occasion. It is not appropriate to talk about these things now."
As he spoke, Liu Bei showed a confident expression on his face.
Chen Gong is already in his possession. As long as he waits for the opportunity, he can conquer Chen Gong. As for the land of Xuzhou, it will soon be in his possession. Once Lu Bu dies, Xuzhou will change its owner, and Liu Bei will have the opportunity to regain control of Xuzhou.
Zhang Fei said: "Brother, the second brother is not back yet, what should we do?"
Liu Bei's eyes turned cold and he said, "Wait, wait for the news from Shangyong."
…
Yuan Jun's camp, the Chinese army's tent.
Yuan Shu sat on the main seat, looking decadent, with a defeated expression on his face.
He led thousands of soldiers to stop Lü Meng's advance, but was beaten to a pulp by Lü Meng. Only a few hundred soldiers were left, which simply embarrassed the old Yuan family. Although everyone in the world regarded Yuan Shao as a member of the Yuan family
Representative, but Yuan Shu believed that he was the heir to the Yuan family and the most important eldest son of the Yuan family.
Under the tent, Qiao Rui and Li Feng were sitting on the left and right.
Qiao Rui had a wound on her butt, so she had to kneel straight, otherwise she would touch the wound.
Yuan Shu summoned the two of them to discuss retreating. Now that Yuan Shu was weak, there was no point in staying here, so Yuan Shu wanted to slip away. While the three of them were discussing, the curtain of the camp opened and a soldier quickly ran in.
He knelt on the ground on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "General, Liu Bei has returned with news that Lu Bu has been killed!"
"Lu Bu was killed?"
When Yuan Shu heard this, he stood up immediately.
His breathing seemed a little rapid, he kept rubbing his hands and pacing back and forth in the camp. Yuan Shu stared at the soldiers, his eyes flashing with brilliance, and asked in a deep voice: "Is the news reliable?"
The soldier said seriously: "Absolutely reliable, even Lu Bu's head was chopped off."
"Snapped!"
Yuan Shu clapped his hands and secretly praised him.
He sent the soldiers out, then walked to the center of the camp and said with a smile: "Well, once Lu Bu dies, Xuzhou will have no master. Even if Lu Bu has children, they are not good enough. It is impossible for them to secure Xuzhou. Yangzhou
It is right next to Xuzhou, and once Lu Bu died, it created an opportunity for us. As long as we get Xuzhou, our power will rise to the next level."
When Lu Bu died, Yuan Shu rejoiced.
From this, we can also see that Lu Bu has found two 'good' allies.
Qiao Rui also rejoiced and said with a smile: "Chen Gong is Lu Bu's military advisor. Now that Lu Bu has been killed, Chen Gong has the power. As long as the lord conquers Chen Gong, won't Xuzhou be in the lord's pocket?"
Li Feng nodded and agreed.
Yuan Shu heard this and said yes loudly.
He immediately sent soldiers to notify Chen Gong and asked Chen Gong to come to the camp to discuss matters. Yuan Shu was full of expectations and wanted to conquer Chen Gong and capture Xuzhou. However, after the soldiers went to convey the news, they came back and said that Yuan Shu was missing from Chen Gong, leaving Yuan Shu dead.
In this way, Chen Gong directly rejected Yuan Shu's request and was unwilling to submit to Yuan Shu.
Yuan Shu frowned, with a solemn expression on his face.
If Chen Gong doesn't cooperate, it's hard to do things!
Li Feng said: "My lord, since we are too soft, we will be tough. Now that it is impossible to attack Wang Can, we will immediately withdraw our troops, return to Yangzhou, recruit new soldiers to attack Xuzhou, and take advantage of the instability in Xuzhou to take advantage of it in one go."
Go to Xuzhou. Even if Chen Gong doesn't want to, he can't refuse."
Yuan Shu nodded in agreement and ordered: "The army packs up and retreats immediately!"
At noon, Yuan Shu left the camp with his soldiers and returned to Yangzhou.
Liu Bei knew that Yuan Shu sent someone to invite Chen Gong, but was rejected in the end. Now Yuan Shu left in a hurry again, Liu Bei could also guess what Yuan Shu was thinking, but Liu Bei did not stop him and allowed Yuan Shu to leave. Only if Yuan Shu cooperated well could he
He easily conquered Chen Gong and took control of Xuzhou.
Everything is running according to Liu Bei's ideas.
However, Guan Yu's matter has troubled Liu Bei. Now he doesn't know whether Guan Yu is alive or dead.
It stands to reason that Liu Bei has achieved the purpose of his trip and can withdraw his troops. However, Liu Bei did not receive any news from Guan Yu, so he had to stay to investigate Guan Yu's situation.
