"General, we'd better retreat to Yanzhou first, let's talk about it another day."
Man Chong saw that Cao Ren's expression was not very good, and quickly persuaded Cao Ren.
After all, with the soldiers currently led by Cao Ren, he wanted to recapture the small town from Lu Bu's army.
Peicheng is basically a fantasy.
"Lu Bu, today's shame, I, Cao Zixiao, have recorded it.
You, Lu Bu, will have to pay with your blood one day."
Cao Ren finally gritted his teeth and said with a cold face, then swore to the sky, and finally disappeared into the night with Cao's soldiers.
In Xiaopei City, Lu Bu was sitting in the prefect's mansion, looking extremely happy, while Chen Gong looked at Lu Bu who was sitting on the main seat with an extremely proud look on his face, and frowned with some concern.
"Marquis Wen, now we still need to send someone to contact Liu Beijun."
Chen Gong thought for a moment and said to Lu Bu in a serious tone.
After listening to Chen Gong's words, Lu Bu sat up straight from his seat, looked at Chen Gong with a proud smile, and then said in a casual tone: "Now that I took advantage of Liu Bei and Cao Ren to attack Xiaopei, Liu Bei is still willing Will you cooperate with me?
No, no, no?"
After hearing Lu Bu's objections, Chen Gong's face became serious, and then he said seriously to Lu Bu: "Don't worry, Marquis Wen.
Liu Bei is a smart man and will not see the situation clearly.
Even if he feels uncomfortable, he will not If you tell me, then Marquis Wen will only need to send someone, and Liu Bei will not refuse to agree.
After all, Liu Bei's enemy is Cao Cao, not us."
After listening to Chen Gong's words, Lu Bu pondered for a moment, then nodded and said to Chen Gong: "Then I'll leave it to Mr.
Gongtai to contact Liu Bei."
"Yes."
Chen Gong watched Lu Bu finally relent, his expression finally softened, he bowed respectfully to Lu Bu, and then withdrew.
"Master, there is an army coming towards us from the front."
At this time, late at night, Bai Ren's army was driving in the night.
Suddenly, he noticed something strange in front of Bai Ren.
He said to Bai Ren with a somewhat wary tone. .
After hearing Xiang Cheng's words, Bai Ren took a closer look and saw an army faintly appearing in the night ahead.
Bai Ren's face suddenly became alert, he waved his hand and shouted loudly to the soldiers behind him. : "Stop the march, the whole army is on alert" Under Bai Ren's order, the soldiers led by Bai Ren immediately stopped and waited quietly for the troops coming from the front.
"Zi Fu Zi Fu" Suddenly, a weak voice came in the dark night, and Bai Ren also saw clearly who was coming from the army.
It was Cao Ren who was leading Xiao Pei's defeated army towards Bai Ren.
Come.
"General Zixiao" Bai Ren looked at Cao Ren with some surprise.
Isn't this Cao Ren who is in Xiaopei City?
Why is he here now?
Could it be?
"Zifu, I'm sorry for you.
I didn't defend Xiaopei and let Lu Bu's army capture it."
Cao Ren rode up to Bai Ren and looked at Bai Ren with a shameful expression.
His tone was very sad, as if he had done something wrong to Bai Ren. things.
After hearing what Cao Ren said, Bai Ren looked a little bad.
He looked straight at Cao Ren and asked Cao Ren in a bad tone: "What, Xiaopei was taken away by Lu Bu's army, General Zixiao, don't be anxious, you Talk about it carefully" Cao Ren looked at Bai Ren's shocked face and told Bai Ren what happened with a somewhat sad expression.
"This is a good trick Chen Gong used.
I'm afraid it will be difficult to take back Xiaopei City now.
Let's retreat to Yanzhou first, tell the lord what happened, and wait until the lord hears a letter before making a decision."
Bai Ren sighed helplessly, and finally frowned He frowned and thought for a moment, then said seriously to Cao Ren.
"Zifu" Cao Ren looked at Bai Ren with some shame, feeling more and more sorry for Bai Ren in his heart, so he said to Bai Ren in a hesitant tone.
"General Zixiao, this matter is not your fault.

As the saying goes, victory or defeat is a matter of military affairs.
Don't blame yourself."
Bai Ren looked at Cao Ren, patted Bai Ren's shoulder gently, and then turned around and led the army.
Go back.
Cao Ren looked at Bai Ren's back, sighed helplessly, and finally had no choice but to lead the soldiers behind him and follow Bai Ren out of Xuzhou.
In Liu Bei's camp outside Xiaopei, Liu Bei's camp has been cleaned up and it can be said that it is no longer as panicked as before.
Liu Bei also stepped up the patrol of the army to guard against Cao Ren coming to attack at night again.
"Who's coming?"
At this time, the soldier guarding the door suddenly spotted a cavalry running from a distance.
He looked at the cavalry with a somewhat wary expression and shouted at him in a cold tone.
"I am a soldier under Marquis Wen, and I came here to visit Ambassador Liu on Marquis Wen's order."
The cavalryman looked at the patrolling soldiers with alert faces and replied in a neither humble nor arrogant tone.
The two patrol soldiers looked at each other, and then one went down to inform.
Not long after, the lights in Liu Bei's camp were brightly lit.
Liu Bei sat on the main seat with an extremely tired look on his face.
He looked at the cavalry standing below and asked the cavalry with a somewhat impatient tone: "Your Marquis Wen sent you here, are you there?"
What's going on?
Didn't I say that I don't want to have anything to do with your Marquis Wen?"
"This is a letter from my Marquis Wen to Ambassador Liu.
Please read it."
The soldier looked at Liu Bei with a dull expression, then took out the letter from his arms, and handed it to Liu Bei respectfully.
Liu Bei frowned and looked at the letter that was handed over to him.
Then he took the letter and read it carefully.
At the end, Liu Bei's expression changed drastically.
He actually crumpled the letter in his hand and shouted with a somewhat unwilling expression: "This Lu Bu is simply bullying others too much.
Our troops are fighting bloody battles in the front, but he is picking up ready-made things in the back.
It's really abominable.
Go back and tell you."
Marquis Wen, I, Liu Bei, will not join forces with him.
I want him to wait in Xiaopei City.
I, Liu Bei, must take back Xiaopei."
The soldier looked at Liu Bei who was furious above.
His expression did not change much, but he laughed.
"Why are you laughing?
Aren't you afraid of death?"
Liu Bei looked at the soldiers below and suddenly laughed, and asked the soldiers below with a gloomy look.
"Before my husband came, I had expected that the envoy would be furious.
Unexpectedly, it was just as expected."
The personal weapon looked at the murderous Liu Bei above and said fearlessly to Liu Bei.
"Sir, could it be Chen Gong and Chen Gongtai who betrayed Cao Cao and surrendered to Lu?"
Liu Bei had a look of surprise on his face after hearing the words of the soldiers below, and then said to the soldiers below in a fluctuating tone.
"Of course, my husband specially wrote a letter to the envoy."
The soldier looked at Liu Bei, took out another letter from his chest, stepped forward and handed it to Liu Bei, who was full of doubts.
Liu Bei looked at the soldiers in front of him in surprise, and then took the letter with some caution.
After reading it, his expression became much better, and then he closed his eyes and thought about something.

After a while, Liu Bei slowly opened his eyes, looked at the soldiers below, and said in a calm tone: "It's okay for me to join forces with you, but I have some requirements."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
The soldier looked at Liu Bei and finally relaxed, and said to Liu Bei in a serious tone.
"First, if our Xuzhou is attacked by other forces, Lu Bu's army must send troops to support" Liu Bei looked at the soldier with bright eyes and responded calmly to the soldiers below.
"That's okay," the soldier replied very readily.
"Second, Lu Bu must be nominally subordinate to me, Xuzhou."
Liu Bei said his second request to the soldiers with a calm expression.
"I will report this to my Marquis Wen."
The soldier was a little embarrassed.
Liu Bei's request was equivalent to Lu Bu becoming Liu Bei's subordinate in name.
The soldier did not dare to agree easily.
"Second, you go back and talk to your master.
Third, if you have an inch of land, you must return Xiaopei," Liu Bei said to the soldiers in a serious tone.
"This is natural."
When the soldier left, Chen Gong had already asked this matter, and the soldier immediately agreed to Liu Bei's request.
"Oh" Liu Bei was a little surprised.
He didn't expect the soldier to agree so readily, so he touched his chin and said to the soldier: "My last condition, please put Chen Deng and Chen Yuanlong back in Xiaopei Prison."
"Okay, since Liu Shijun said so, I hope that the commander will keep his word."
The soldier listened to Liu Bei's words, saluted Liu Bei, and then slowly withdrew
