Chapter 35 Liu Bei leads Xuzhou Mu, Li Wei and Guo Yan's army 2

Cao Cao's four-way men marched forward. Cao Cao himself did not bother at all, but led the Chinese army to move slowly. Every time the four-way people break a thief's cottage, they will escort the captured people back. Cao Cao, who had a harvest every day, has been laughing for days, but today he can't laugh, all because the news of Li Dian's capture was sent back to the camp.

Cao Cao is still very clear about Li Dian's ability, and he also knows that he is not good at martial arts. It is not difficult for the Xiahou brothers to defeat Li Dian. However, I'm afraid that even Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan can't do it in one round to capture Li Dian. Cao Cao estimated that the martial arts skills of the capture of Li Dian were comparable to Lv Bu, which made Cao worry about Li Dian's love for talent at the same time.

Cao Cao, who was worried about Li Dian, did not dare to delay and gathered all the generals to Gepi. The army followed Li Dian's subordinates to the place where Li Dian was captured the day before yesterday, but there was no trace of people. Cao Cao led the troops for a few miles and saw a dock fortress here, built by mountains and rivers, with extremely strict defense.

Before Cao Cao called, the gate of the Wubao opened wide, and a strong man led more than 100 people out with a big knife. At that time, a sergeant under Li Dian pointed out, "It was this one who captured General Li!"

Cao Cao was secretly happy when he saw that the lion's nose was wide, the tiger's eyes were wide open, and he was majestic. He immediately said, "I am Cao Cao, the herdsman of Yanzhou. The man captured by the strong man yesterday is my general. Thank you very much for asking the strong man to return it."

The strong man looked up and down at Cao Cao and felt that the Yanzhou shepherd's words were quite polite, and he did not rely on the crowd to attack the dock castle. He couldn't help but look up to Cao Cao. But even so, he is unwilling to easily return Li Dian. The people here live a difficult life. Li Dian's horses and weapons are all good things and can be exchanged for a lot of food. How can he easily return it to Cao Cao?

The strong man smiled at Cao Cao and said, "If it's not difficult for me to let people go, as long as you wait to win the sword in my hand."

Xiahou Dun was furious when he heard the words and shot a gun to fight. The strong man danced his knife to welcome him, and the two horses met in less than 30he. Xia Houyuan saw that his brother was not the man's opponent and also fought with a gun. Two shots and one knife fought in one place, only in the dark.

The three fought from time to noon, regardless of victory or defeat. The sergeants from both sides shouted in unison to cheer for the three people. Cao Cao was surprised to see that the strong man did not fall behind with one enemy, but the more brave he fought. He was afraid of hurting the two favorite generals. Seeing that the three had fought for hundreds of rounds, he hurriedly ordered Jin to withdraw his troops.

When the Xiahou brothers heard that Mingjin did not dare to fight again, both of them shook their guns and pulled their horses and left. The strong man then chased him, but was shot back by the bow and crossbow, so he stopped his own army.

The next morning, the strong man came to fight in front of the camp. Cao Cao knew that this man was invincible and had the intention to subdue him, so he ordered Xiahou Dun to cheat and defeat today. Xiahou Dun ordered Pegasus to go to war.

When the strong man saw that Xiahou Dun was the only one who came today, he asked, "What about your brother? Let him fight together."

Xiahou Dun said, "It's enough for me to capture you alone!" After saying that, the two fought in one place. After more than ten rounds, Xiahou Dun was defeated and returned to the battle. The strong man rushed to the gate and was shot back by the crossbow.

The hero stood outside the range of the crossbow and roared angrily, "You can only shoot arrows, which is not a real ability! Since you can't fight me, why don't you withdraw quickly?

Cao Cao smiled when he heard the words and indeed led the army to retreat five miles to the village. When the strong man saw Cao Cao retreating, he also beat the horse and no longer entangled him. After Cao Cao set up camp, he secretly ordered the soldiers to dig down the pit and secretly hook his hands. The next day, he ordered the Xiahou brothers to lead troops to fight in front of the castle.

When the strong man saw Xiahou Dun leave, he laughed and said, "How dare the defeated general come back?"

Xiahou Dun said, "Today, my brother came to capture you together. Do you dare to fight?"

The strong man said, "Why don't you dare!" After saying that, the three of them fought in one place again.

After dozens of battles, the Xiahou brothers returned to their horses. When the heroes saw that there was no army of archery behind them, they chased after them. He only chased the two generals in front of him. One of them was not guarded. Even people and horses fell into the trap and was bound by a group of hooks to see Cao Cao.

When Cao saw the strong man walking under the tent, he scolded the retired soldier to relieve his bondage, took a brocade robe and put it on the strong man, ordered him to sit down and asked him his name and origin.

The hero said, "I am from Qiuo County, my surname is Xu, my name is Chu, and my name is Zhongkang. There has always been frequent bandits in this place, so I gathered hundreds of clans to build a strong wall fort to control it.

One day, the thief came, and I asked everyone to take more stones to prepare. I personally flew the stone and hit it. All the thieves retreated. Another day, when the thief arrived and there was no food in the dock, I asked the thief to farm cattle for rice. The thief sent rice and drove the cow outside the dock. When the cow saw that the thieves were all strangers, he was shocked and ran around. He was held by my hands and walked more than a hundred steps. The thief was shocked and dared not take the cow away. Therefore, there is nothing wrong with this dock.

Cao Cao heard that Xu Chu had the power to drag two cows, and said with great joy: "I have heard that Zhong Kang has been famous for a long time! It's really a talent to keep a dock with the power of Zhong Kang. Would you like to protect the world with me?

Xu Chu also knows that this thief is endless because the world is not peaceful. Seeing Cao Cao's virtuous virtuous comoral and the desire to protect the people, he bowed down and said, "I am willing to follow my lord."

Cao Cao worshipped Xu Chu as a lieutenant and rewarded him. Xu Chu returned to the Wubao and put Li Dian back, and attracted hundreds of clans to surrender. With the help of Xu Chu, both Runan and Yingchuan are flat.

Cao Cao won the class, and Cao Ren, Xun Yu, Xun You and others came out to welcome him. Xun You saw Cao and said, "Congratulations, lord! Recently, it has been reported in detail. Xue Lan and Li Feng in Yanzhou were short of food, and the soldiers went out of the city to plunder, and the city was empty. The lord can attract victorious soldiers to attack it, and such a drum can be defeated.

The fighter plane was fleeting. Cao Cao did not dare to delay, and there was no time to rest and led the army straight to Yanzhou. Xue Lan and Li Feng were unprepared and had to lead troops out of the city to fight.

Xu Chu said, "I would like to take the head of these two people as a gift of meeting."

Cao Cao was overjoyed and ordered Xu Chu to go to war. Li Feng drew a halberd and came to fight. The two horses met, Xu Chu split Li Feng's halberd with a knife, and then cut Li Feng and his horse into two pieces.

Xue Lan was scared to see this scene and fled back to the scene and wanted to return to the city. I don't want Li Dian to stop by the suspension bridge early. Xue Lan did not dare to go to the city and led the troops and horses to the direction of the giant field, but was rushed by Lv Qian's flying horse, shot an arrow under the horse, and the army collapsed.

When Cao Cao returned to Yanzhou, Cheng Yu invited troops to Puyang. Cao Cao ordered Xu Chu as the vanguard, Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan as the left army, Li Dian and Le Jin as the right army. Cao Cao led the central army, and Lv Qian as the rear army and went straight to Puyang.

When the soldiers arrived in Puyang, Lv Bu wanted to lead the troops to war in person when he heard the news. Chen Gong said, "General, don't come out lightly. Wait for the generals to gather before they can meet the enemy.

Lv Bu snorted coldly, "Who am I afraid of?" So he didn't listen to Chen Gong's words and led the troops out.

The two armies fought against each other. Lv Bu held a square sky painting halberd and came out. He shouted loudly, "Who dares to come forward to fight with me?"

Xu Chu came out to fight Lv Bu with a knife and a horse. Previously, Lv Bu had never seen Xu Chu in the confrontation with Cao Cao, and he regarded him as an unknown young general and did not pay attention to him. Until 20 rounds of the battle were indisputable, Lv Bu knew that Xu Chu was powerful. However, even so, Lv Bu was not afraid. He knew that Xu Chu's martial arts were similar to Dian Wei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and he was not his opponent.

Cao Cao, who watched the array, also knew that Lv Bu was the first in the world, so he said to the generals, "Lv Bu is not alone. Wait and help Zhong Kang."

The generals came out one after another when they heard the words. Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan on the left, Li Dian and Le Jin on the right, and the five generals attacked Lv Bu together.

Lv Bu's left and right branches could not be stopped and returned to the city. Tian, who cheated Cao Cao before, saw Lv Bu's defeat and pulled up the suspension bridge. Lv Bu shouted under the city; "Open the door!"

Tian said, "I have surrendered to General Cao!"

Lv Bu scolded, "I'm the master! Ignorant villain! Previously, you fraudulently surrendered Cao Cao and caused him to damage his soldiers and generals. If he enters the city, he will never forgive you.

Tian said, "The three domestic slaves dare to scold me for betraying my master!" General Cao is not as narrow-minded as you. Even if you are put into the city, this city will be destroyed by General Cao in the future. At that time, there will be no place for me to die!"

Lv Bu saw that Tian was determined to defect to Cao Cao, so he had to lead the military horse to Ding Tao. Chen Gong urgently opened the east gate to protect Lv Bu's family from leaving the city.

Cao Cao got Puyang and indeed forgave Tian's old sins. Xun You said to Cao, "Lv Bu is a fierce tiger. He is tired today and can't let him breathe."

Caoran said that Xun You guarded Puyang and led his troops to chase Lv Bu to Dingtao. At that time, Lv Bu, Zhang Mio and Zhang Chao were all in the city, and Hou Cheng and others patrolled the sea for grain and did not return. Lv Bu knew that Cao Cao's trump card was not a front of war.

Lv Bu did not fight for days, and Cao Cao did not attack the city. Instead, he led the army to retreat 40 miles to the village. At the time when the local wheat was ripe, Cao Cao ordered the soldiers to cut the wheat for food.

I reported to Lv Bu in detail, and Lv Bu led the army to come when he heard the news. Near Cao's camp, he saw that the forest on the left side of the camp was lush, and he was afraid that there would be an ambush, so he led the army back.

Cao Cao returned to the generals when he learned that Lv Bu was coming and said, "Lv Bu suspects that there are ambushes in the forest. Tomorrow, he can put more banners in the forest as suspects. There is no long embankment in the west of the village, which can ambush elite soldiers. Lv Bu will come to burn the forest every day, and the ambush in the embankment can be broken later, so Lv Bu will be captured by me.

All the generals are full of clever tricks. Therefore, Cao Cao left 50 drummers to beat drums in the village, captured all the men and women from the nearby village and ordered them to shout in the village. The flags in the army were all inserted in the forest and the elite soldiers fell in the embankment.

However, he said that Lv Bu returned to the city and told Chen Gong about the ambush in the forest. Chen Gong said, "Cao Cao has many tricks and can't underestimate the enemy."

Lv Bu said, "I can attack with fire to break the ambush." So he left Chen Palace to guard the city.

The next day, Lv Bu led the army out of the city. Seeing the flag swaying in the forest, he drove the troops in and set fire on all sides, but there was no one. He wanted to attack Cao Cao's camp, but he heard the sound of drums in the village.

Lv Bu was doubtful, and there was a shout of killing behind him. Cao's army ambushed troops in the embankment, and Xu Chu, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, Li Dian and Lejin suddenly killed them. Lv Bu knew that he was invincible and left. Cheng Lian, a strong general, was shot to death by Lejin. Two-thirds of Lu Bu's army's casualties and surrendered.

Chen Gong was rewarded for his defeat in the city and said to the city * school, "The empty city is difficult to defend. It's better to go quickly." So he kept the Lv Bu family and abandoned Ding Tao and left.
