Liu Bei marched all night, but Liu Qi did not do the same.
Instead, he stayed overnight and then slowly pursued.
The two parties did not collide quickly.
And with Liu Qi's order.
Originally leading 50,000 troops and horses, he wanted to rush to Puyang quickly.
Ma Chao, who was guarding Puyang, also slowed down his marching pace.
But he was not in a hurry, and did not let Qi Jun's intelligence find out that he had deliberately slowed down the pace of the march.
After all, a sudden slowdown could easily arouse suspicion.
Intentionally or unintentionally.
Liu Bei also arrived in Puyang first. , It didn't take much effort to occupy Puyang.
Puyang only has 3,000 city guards, and they are not a real combat force.
Facing more than 100,000 Qi troops, it is normal for them to be unable to resist.
When more than 100,000 Qi troops came to the city with a mighty force.
Without making any unnecessary resistance, they directly opened the city gate and surrendered.
After all, the three thousand city guards were not a real combat force.
They usually managed the security of the city.
But in wartime, they faced more than 100,000 enemies.
The army can't play any role.
There is no need to make any unnecessary sacrifices.
The flag of Puyang was also changed to a cyan flag representing the Qi army.
As for the black flags, they were all thrown away.
However.
It took only a stick of incense before Liu Bei led the army to occupy Puyang.
Ma Chao, who led his troops from Yecheng, also arrived at Puyang.
Relatively speaking, he was indeed a step behind the Qi army.
After all, Puyang was already occupied by the Qi army.
They could only set up camp ten miles outside Puyang, far away from the Qi army.
Shen Pei also made suggestions for Liu Bei, hoping to take advantage of Ma Chaocai's arrival with 50,000 troops, who was also tired from the march and took the opportunity to attack the camp.
Unexpectedly, Pang Tongyi had already planned something.
Let Ma Chao and Pang De lead the army to ambush outside the camp, and he led an army in the camp.
Xu Huang, who led 30,000 troops to attack the camp, fell into the trap and was defeated by Ma Chao and Pang De.
He lost 10,000 troops and retreated to Puyang in defeat.
See this.
Liu Bei did not pay attention to Ma Chao anymore, and stayed in Puyang, stalemate with Ma Chao.
Moreover, in the evening of the same day.
Liu Qi, who also divided his troops in Yanzhou, also led the army to the rear of Puyang, and Ma Chao, who was in front of Puyang, formed an encirclement situation against Liu Bei in Puyang.
With the arrival of the army led by Liu Qi, Liu Bei did not dare to act rashly.
There was no thought of attacking the camp.
He failed once, and he didn't want to do it again, and he also believed that Liu Qi would not give him a chance to attack the camp.
If you act rashly, you will only lose your troops.
The night when the two parties met.
There was no incident or fighting, and they spent the night peacefully.
Early the next morning.
Liu Qi also led an army, joined Ma Chao, and marched to the city.
If nothing else, it has reached this point, and Liu Bei is in Puyang.

It is impossible to explain why he has not seen him last time, not to mention that they are both Han clan clan members.
More than 100,000 Han troops also formed a formation outside the city, densely covered with banners, looking at the Qi army on the city wall from a distance.
Liu Bei, Shen Pei, Xu Huang, and Han Fu also climbed onto the city wall immediately.
They also know that there is no escape now.
Before an encirclement is formed, they can withdraw from Jizhou and return to Dongjun, or go to Nanpi.
But Liu Qi led the army to arrive.
They could only stick to Puyang, waiting for things to develop in the direction they wanted, waiting for opportunities, or to defeat the Han army outside the city.
Apart from this, there is no way out.
But it is not easy to defeat the Han army, otherwise we would not stay in Puyang and wait for the opportunity.
Standing on the city wall.
Liu Bei was also dressed in military uniform.
He squinted his eyes and looked at the Han troops outside the city, especially Liu Qi in the front, who was wearing silver armor and white robes, holding a spear in his hand, and a shadow-chasing jade dragon under his crotch.
That is his biggest enemy.
When Liu Bei was observing Liu Qi.
Liu Qi was also looking at Liu Bei on the city wall from a distance.
After all, he and Liu Bei were not unfamiliar with each other.
When they first came into contact with Zhao Yun, they exchanged a luminous pearl for Zhao Yun from Gongsun Zan's hand, which was also a connection.
It’s just that there was less contact later.
He rode out, waved his Torrential Pear Blossom Spear in his hand, pointed it at Liu Bei, and shouted: "King Qi, hand over Shen Pei and Han Fu, and withdraw your troops.
Then you and I can live in peace, and I will never lead my troops to pursue you." ", Hear the words.
Liu Bei was not the first to react.
"Lord, don't listen to the slanderous words of the King of Han, and as long as you stick to it, things will definitely change within half a month.
What's more, once the lord withdraws his troops, the follow-up plan will no longer be able to continue," Shen Pei said in a panic.
Han Fu also looked at Liu Bei in panic.
He was afraid that Liu Bei would really listen to Liu Qi's words and hand him over.
He knew very well that if he fell into the hands of Liu Qi, he would have absolutely no chance of survival.
You must know that Dongjun fell so quickly, which was caused by him.
If it falls into the hands of Liu Qi, death may be a luxury.
Xu Huang did not care about the two people, but stared at the Han army outside the city.
After all, what he cared about was how to defeat the Han army.
As for the rest, he can't control it and has no power.
As a military general, it's better to have less contact with political affairs.
Hear the words of the judge.
There was also Han Fu's worried expression.
Liu Bei also glanced at the two of them, and he knew what they were worried about without having to guess.
But he didn't respond to the judge's words.
Then he looked outside the city, Liu Qi was riding out, his eyes flashed, and he shouted: "King Han, the matter has come to this, do you think there is still a way out?"
"If you retreat, you will have it."
Liu Qi answered without hesitation.
"Haha" Liu Bei laughed and said: "Even if I am at a disadvantage now, the outcome is still uncertain.
I am not inferior to you, so why should I retreat?"
How could he not know the meaning of Liu Qi's words, which was just to make him admit that he was inferior to Liu Qi.
Once he retreated, everyone in the world would think that he had failed, regardless of whether he admitted it or not.
Going deeper, it is equivalent to acknowledging Liu Qi's status, and in disguise, making the world think that he has surrendered to Liu Qi's command.
How could he admit such a thing?

"It seems like there's only one battle left."
“Just as it should be” The exchange of glances between Liu Bei and Liu Qi was like sparks of passion, refusing to give in to each other. at last.
Liu Qi did not attack immediately.
After all, there are more than 100,000 Qi troops in the city.
Even if Puyang is recaptured by force, there will be great losses.
This requires careful planning.
And he didn't plan to defeat Liu Bei quickly, otherwise he wouldn't have planned so much.
I know Liu Bei's determination.
He also knew that Liu Bei would not go out of the city to fight.
Liu Qi then gathered his army and surrounded the three city gates, leaving only the east gate.
There were no soldiers and horses to surround it, and there was only one missing from the three gates
