Cao rushed out of the military tent, and immediately took advantage of Cao Cao's military order to summon Zhang He Xu Yi's generals, and then rode with the original 3,000 tigers and leopards, a total of almost 10,000 people.
At this time, Wuling City had already been in the vicissitudes of life, and the Liuzi banner at the head of the city had become the Caozi banner, and Cao Chong entered Wuling City all the way.
Wuling City was wet, and although the autumn rain was much lighter, the ground was still full of mud stains.
The huge Wuling City, except for the earliest noise at the city gate, when Cao Chong passed through Wuling City, the entire city was dead silent.
If it weren't for the fact that Cao Jun had already occupied the south of the city, Cao Chong would have thought that Liu Bei had played an ambush Da-da-da-da Hurry up, and soon, Wuling City will soon be behind the butts of Cao Chong and his party.
Rushing in the autumn rain, the cold wind was bone-chilling, and the rain slapped on the face, there was a slight pain, but whether it was Zhou Dufu or Xu Yi Zhang He, there was no other emotion on his face, only excitement, or a smile in his hand.
Military merit is what the soldiers desire the most, and it is obvious that Cao Chong's party is very likely to make meritorious achievements, and the only thing to worry about is what Liu Bei may have after leaving.
In the autumn rainy weather, Cao Chong was not afraid of his gunpowder, but he was not afraid of gunpowder, arrows, and rolling wood Therefore, after Cao Chong left Wuling City, his marching speed was much slower, and he sent out many soldiers to explore the road in front.
Although Cao Chong's marching speed was not fast, it was faster than the marching speed of Liu Bei and the people, I don't know how many times.
After traveling like this for about an hour, Cao Chong could already see the lonely people, these lonely people were either carrying the old and the young, or the things they brought were too much, for these people, Cao Chong definitely couldn't let them follow Liu Bei to Wuling County.
Joke, if they are let go, then Wuling County is still called a county If there is no one, how can it be called a county Therefore, the people along the way must be brought back to Wuling.
For the lonely people, Cao Chong's attitude towards them is quite kind, as long as they turn around and go back, it will not hurt their lives, as for the issue of goods, it is not Cao Chong's control.
A large reason why Cao Cao's troops were able to win every battle and not be afraid of the siege was because Cao Cao acquiesced in their debauchery after the siege.
For example, Cao Ren's troops, after attacking a city, plundered the city for one day, and then stopped looting after one day.
Cao Chong can save the lives of these people who were brainwashed by Liu Bei, and it can only be said that Cao Chong is soft-hearted.
If these people meet someone like Cao Chun, they still want to return to Wuling City alive Impossible things Cao Chong was chasing behind, and the scouts of Liu Bei's department in front of him naturally knew about it for a long time, and now they were able to rush to Liu Bei.
Liu Bei's left arm was injured, and he marched in a hurry before he was cured of a serious illness, his face was a little pale at the moment, his lips were dry, and the whole person looked unrefreshed.
"Report, report to the lord, Cao Cao's son Cao Chong led 10,000 cavalry to chase behind him, and he can get here in half an hour" Half an hour Liu Bei's eyes were dark, he staggered on the horse's back, and he was almost about to fall.
"How could it be so fast" You must know that Liu Bei's escape was well prepared, and he began to march on the third watch, and it was almost half a day to march like this, but he was caught up by Cao Chong in the middle of the day, and Liu Bei's heart was half cold.
Sun Gan saw Liu Bei's expression on the side, and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort: "Lord, the Cao thief is close at hand, the lord should first retreat to Changsha City with the cavalry." ” Retreat first Although Liu Bei also wanted to survive, after listening to Sun Gan's words, he still shook his head vigorously.
"If I leave, the people of Wuling City will be slaughtered by Cao Jun, in this case, if I leave, I am not as good as a beast."
Sun Qian was speechless for a while, and said: "At this critical time of survival, don't think about these small sections, as long as the lord is here, even if we all die, the lord can make a comeback, but if the lord is here, even if we survive, it will be useless, why don't the lord want to think about the great cause of reviving the Han family." alas After listening to Sun Gan's words, Liu Bei sighed, and his eyebrows and eyes became a lot firmer.
Liu Bei looked sideways, and what caught his eye was Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Sun Qian, and others, they looked at Liu Bei with blazing eyes, and Liu Bei knew that they were waiting for their words.
It's a pity that what I, Liu Bei, am going to say next, will definitely disappoint them.
As soon as Liu Bei closed his eyes, when he opened his eyes again, his eyebrows and eyes were already very sharp.
"Discard the people of Wuling, pigs and dogs are not as good, talk about how to revive the Han Dynasty" Liu Bei looked at the people who were dragging their families and walking in the autumn rain and zero bells, and he was sad for a while.
At this moment, he thought a lot, when he was young, he weaved mats and sold shoes, after meeting Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he got the support of a cadre with the Yellow Turban Uprising, bumped and bumped all the way, got Xuzhou, lost Xuzhou, got Xuzhou again, lost Xuzhou again, lost Xuzhou again, and lost Xuzhou again, in a muddy life, Liu Bei was attached to Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and Liu Biao.
I have my home all over the world, but I have received the love of the people, and this time, I will not run away Liu Bei's eyes were firm, but in the firmness, there was still a little loneliness and a little death.
Liu Bei has struggled for most of his life, and in this way, he is also a person in his forties.
And so long has passed since the beginning of the year, and his foundation is still far away, crying out and crying out sadly inlay Liu Bei pulled out the sword on his waist and said to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei: "Who is willing to kill Cao Thief with me?"
"No, never" "Don't be the eldest brother, leave it to the younger brother at this time" "The lord can't do it."
Liu Bei waved his hand and said, "I have made up my mind on this matter, you don't have to say more."
When Guan Yu saw Liu Bei's appearance, he just wanted to say, "I'm with my brother", but was stopped by Zhang Fei.
"Big brother, younger brother has a plan to force Cao Chong to retreat" A plan Guan Yu looked at Zhang Fei in surprise, in fact, not only Guan Yu was surprised, almost everyone was surprised, Liu Bei was also amused by Zhang Fei, and the atmosphere that had been created for a long time disappeared cleanly.
"Third brother, there is no joke in the army" Zhang Fei nodded and said, "I know my brothers don't believe it, but this plan was obtained by me Zhang Fei after careful consideration." ” Chew one's cod Sun Qian didn't wait for Liu Bei to speak, and hurriedly said to Zhang Fei: "If the general has a plan, it is better to say it quickly, Cao Jun is already behind him." ” Zhang Fei nodded and said: "Ten miles away, there is a forest, the tree is five or six feet high, covering the sky and the sun, if I lead hundreds of cavalry to make some noise and shout, Cao Jun will not dare to chase."
As soon as Zhang Fei finished speaking, Sun Qian rushed to speak.
"Lord, I think this plan is feasible" "Yes, my subordinates feel the same way," Jian Yong also spoke.
"Although General Zhang is a martial artist, he also has a strategy, Mi Fang admires" Several of Liu Bei's strategists were complimenting Zhang Fei for a ploy that was not considered a ploy, that is, to dispel Liu Bei's idea of personally leading the army forward.
Regardless of whether Zhang Fei is talking about a clever plan or going to die, in short, it will be a good plan.
This is Sun Qianmi, Mi Fang, Jian Yong, and even Zhang Fei, looking for Liu Bei under the steps.
There is a sentence Sun Gan said very right, anyone in the Liu Bei Group can die, but Liu Bei can't die, Liu Bei can be said to be the soul of Liu Bei Group, his soul role is not just as simple as creating this group, more importantly, everyone present is basically linked by him.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are in Liu Bei Group because of their brotherhood with Liu Bei, and Sun Qianjian and Yong Mifang are in Liu Bei Group because they value Liu Bei's future prospects, and the people are willing to risk their lives to follow Liu Bei because of his benevolence and righteousness.
In this group, anyone can die, but he must live well call Liu Bei understood a lot in an instant, and the blood poured back from his head to his heart.
"Well, just follow the strategy of the third brother":
