Chapter 257 Escape

I won’t mention how Liu Biao welcomes Yang Xiu for now. In short, Yang Xiu and Liu Biao are now like that. One is a man who has a love and the other is a concubine who has a intention. It just hit it off and didn’t want to.

Within a few days, the two signed the Liu Jingzhou city alliance in a small boat on the Han River under the city of Xiangyang.

Wang Li returned Wang Wei and a thousand remaining soldiers in his hand to Liu Biao, and submitted a memorial to confer Liu Biao the title of Chengwu Hou. The areas under Nanyang's rule: Xicheng, Nanxiang and Nanyang have been officially merged into Sizhou since then, and Wang Li's territory has also changed again.

Yang Xiu was still traveling around Jingzhou, but Xun You had already set off from Lu County and returned to Luoyang.

After sending Xun You away from the camp, Cao Cao returned to the camp and looked at the soldiers and counselors under his command: "Zhongde, Yuan Chang, Xuangao, do you think the intention of Gongda is feasible?"

Xuan Gao was Zang Ba. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zang Ba was under Tao Qian's command. He was appointed as the cavalry commander because of his meritorious killing of the bandits. Later, he withdrew his troops in Xuzhou and gathered his troops with Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li and others. Zang Ba served as the commander and stationed in Kaiyang area, becoming a famous Taishan bandit in history.

Because he couldn't stand Liu Bei's full of benevolence, righteousness and morality and Guan Yu's arrogant appearance, he repeatedly bluntly advised him to criticize Tao Qian, and was attacked by Tao Qian, and was excluded by Zhang Sanye. So he turned to Cao Cao with Sun Guan, Wu Dun, Yin Li, and Chang.

Cheng Yu bowed to Cao Cao and advised: "Lord, Mr. Xun Da is old and successful in planning the country. Although this alliance with the Lord is Wang Deyu, Yu feels that what he said is reasonable. Since ancient times, he must first calm the country before fighting against foreign countries, and the lord's inner self lies in Yanzhou and Jiyin.

The death of the Taiwei, and we are quite sad. Emperor Reform, Lu Bu, Zhang Miao and others have always been ambitious, but if the lord raises troops to Xuzhou, they will definitely take the opportunity to move, pointing at Rencheng and Shanyang.

The mediocre people of Tao Qian in Xuzhou dare not be enemies with his lord. If the lord is in power, Yu believes that even if Taishan and Pei counties are under Tao Qian's nose, he will never extend his greedy hand!"

"But Tao Qian is not the same as before. Liu Bei has always had great ambitions. If he wants to borrow the troops from Xuzhou and take advantage of our troops to attack Jiyin, what should he do to attack Bian Pei Kingdom and Taishan County?" Cao Cao thought for a moment and looked at Cheng Yu in confusion.

"Don't worry, lord!" Zhong Yao stood up and smiled, "Liu Xuande is a man who values ​​the name and always shows a kind and righteous face. When the lord of the previous generation took revenge, he advised the lord to withdraw his troops in Xuzhou. The lord sold him for his face. How dare he take the blame for the world and slap himself in the face?

Moreover, our soldiers attacked the pseudo-emperor, which coincided with Wang Deyu. Liu Xuande's roots were based on the Qinghe army source of Wang Deyu's past. How dare he disobey Wang Deyu's orthodox name? What's more, when his subordinates heard that Tao Qian was seriously ill, Liu Xuande was afraid that he would have no time to take care of him at this time, and he was watching the fertile land of Xuzhou!"

"Ziyang, Boning, Zike, what do you mean?"

Liu Ye smiled at Man Chong and Lu Qian, and strode to Cao Cao: "Lord, Wang Deyu takes the emperor to command the princes. Now the Reform Emperor is right in front of him. Are you still planning to hand him over? Don't forget that Yuan Benchu ​​is now looking at the water tower!"

"What if Yuan Benchu ​​took the troops to rescue him?"

"Since Wang Deyu has formed an alliance with his lord, he will naturally be dealt with by Wang Deyu!"

Cao Cao suddenly stood up and drew his sword, slashed on the desk with a sword and shouted loudly: "I order: Zhang Ji is in charge of Puyang, with Xiahou Yuan as the commander, and Liu Ye as the military advisor, leading Zhang Xiu, Cao Ren, Shi Huan, and Cao Xiu to lead 20,000 elite troops from Juancheng and Puyang to Juyang.

Xuan Gao, Sun Guan, Taishan, Zhong Yao, Cao Zhen

In order to defend Lu County, the other generals Xiahou, Changxi, Cao Hong, Cao Chun and others followed our troops to Rencheng and Shanyang, led 50,000 troops to defeat Chengwu, and met with Xiahou Yuan to attack Dingtao City, annihilated Lu Bu in one fell swoop, and captured the Wei Xin Emperor alive!"

"promise!"

...

"Report to Your Majesty, Cao Cao's army has been divided into two directions and rushed towards Dingtao!"

"Report to Your Majesty, Zhang Taishou was defeated, and the 20,000 troops under Xiahou Yuan had conquered Chengyang and Juyang; General Lu was defeated by Cao Cao's 50,000 troops, and Cao Cao's troops had arrived in Chengwu and Shanfu counties. Should we defend Dingtao to the death or run away from Chenliu? Please ask Your Majesty to decide as soon as possible!"

Listening to the battle reports coming from the front, the Emperor of Reform looked at Chen Gong, Dong Cheng, Fu Wan and others with a pale face, and asked anxiously: "My dear friends, Cao Cao's army is coming in full force, and the soldiers in front are unstoppable. What decision do you think I should make now?"

Chen Gong bowed to Emperor Weixin and said, "Your Majesty, we live in a corner with less than 50,000 troops. There are only General Lu, Zhang Taishou and others, and the real soldiers and small generals. Therefore, if I wait to defend Dingtao, I am afraid I will become the one in the jar..."

"What should I blame for Chen Gongtai, who dares to disrespect His Majesty for his words?"

Dong Cheng shouted angrily. The Emperor of Reform had waved his hand. At this time, he did not have time to find trouble for Chen Gong. Being able to save his life is the most urgent task: "Public Terminal, in your opinion, is it that I should give up Dingtao and go to Chenliu?"

Chen Gong shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, Chen Liu has no danger to defend. Once Dingtao is defeated by Cao's thieves, how can Chen Liu State resist?"

"Is it possible that I am waiting to die in Dingtao?" The Emperor of War's face was slightly unhappy.

Thinking about how proud and ambition he had cursed Wang Li at the front of Chang'an City, and how passionate he was? It has only been half a year since he fled from Chang'an to Yanzhou. Not only is he still as always like a stray dog, but now he is almost unable to save his life. How can he be the kindness of a great man who is determined to revive the great man and vows to be a "wise king" of the great Han generation?

Chen Gong simply walked to the chair of the Emperor of War, pointed to the map on the desk and explained: "Your Majesty, the intention of me is not to stay in Dingtao, nor is it to escape to Chenliu, but to let Your Majesty jump out of Yanzhou and go to Jizhou!"

"Yuan Shao, Jizhou?"

"That's right! Yuan Benchu ​​has now unified Jizhou and has a fertile land of thousands of miles. He can be said to have good soldiers and sufficient food, his counselors are like rain, and his generals are like forests. Although Cao's thieves are brave, they are only in several counties and tens of thousands of people. How can they resist Benchu's military attack?"

The Emperor of War rubbed his forehead, sighed, turned to Dong Cheng beside him, and said, "Has the messenger sent to Jizhou been back? What did Yuan Benchu ​​say?"

"Report to your Majesty, the messenger just turned back to Dingtao yesterday."

Fu Wan quickly walked to the Emperor of War and leaned over to start a comment: "The messenger said that Wang Deyu fought several times a month ago and now he stationed troops in Chaoge, personally leading 80,000 troops, and generals such as Zhao Yun, Zhang, Xu Huang, Gao Shun, Huang Zhong and Taishi Ci came to Wei County and Yangping County.

Yuan Benchu ​​had a hundred thousand troops stationed in Wei County, but he did not dare to act rashly and entered the Puyang area of ​​Cao's thieves at will. He hoped that Your Majesty could go to Wei County by himself. They would meet with Your Majesty in Baimajin, Liyang!"

This fucking retribution came too quickly, right? I was afraid that Wang Li would slapped in the face, so I instantly let Yuan Shao shave it!

When Emperor Weixin heard this, he fell on the desk chair. Three months ago, when Cao Cao's troops attacked Jiyin, Yuan Shao sent Shen Pei, Yan Liang and others to Dingtao to welcome him into Jizhou.

But, at that time

But they were also afraid that Yuan Benchu ​​would become the second "Dong Zhuo", and Lu Fengxian was also worried that without his support, he would become a vassal of Yuan Shao, and so the two hit it off and refused Yuan Shao's invitation. As a result, after a long round of things, they returned to the starting point and had to deliver it to their doorstep! If I had known this, why would he be so pretentious that day?

The Emperor of Reform punched the table with a punch, swallowed his unwillingness for the time being and turned to Chen Gong: "Public Terrace, Cao Cao's 80,000 troops are now in a siege. To go from Dingtao to Baimajin, you need to pass through Juyang and Lihu, which is the attack range of Xiahou Yuan under the command of Cao's thief. Is it hindering?"

Chen Gong drew a line on the map with his pen, connected several points, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, from Dingtao to Liyang and Baimajin, Juyang is not the only road, nor is it the only way for us to go through. Your Majesty, please see, if our soldiers make unjust words, enter Chenliu Middle School, and then turn to Pingqiu from Jiyang (not Jingzhou Jiyang) and Changheng, it will be only ten miles away from Baimajin. At that time, our army will rush forward again and arrive day and night!"

The Emperor of Reform nodded, closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and then asked, "It is much safer to walk along Chenliu, but it is more than a hundred miles away than Juyang. You have said just now that there is no danger in Chenliu's central government. How can the Cao thief pursuers solve the problem?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I have made a decision." Chen Gong patted his chest and said.

"What's the plan?"

"Build a plank road openly and travel to Chencang secretly!"

...

That night, Chengwu County and Lu Buying.

Li Ru whispered twice in Lu Bu's ear. Lu Bu nodded, glanced at the generals, and finally fell on the newly promoted deputy general Han Qi: "Deputy General Han, I have just received a detailed reward. The thief Cao may rob my camp tonight. I plan to use the tricks and treat him with the same way.

This general is the commander of Wei Yue, Li Feng and Zhu Yi to set up an ambush tonight, but my camp needs a general to sit in and fight against the thief for several hours. Your Majesty personally recommends the deputy general. Now, I will hand over this important task to you, so you dare to respond?"

"Hmph, why don't you dare?" Han Qi's black face and beard stared at Lu Bu with her eyes as bright as a bronze bell, and she looked at Lu Bu rebelliously, "Former General, although the last general is not as brave as you, he is also a passionate man. He is also appointed as the deputy general by His Majesty. Not to mention how many hours he has to hold on, even if he fights against tens of thousands of Cao's troops alone, Han will never retreat until his death!"

Lu Bu handed the arrow to Han Qi in his hand, sucking his hands and exclaiming: "Okay, what a Han Qi! It's true that he is the brave general whom His Majesty personally recommends! Since that's the case, the general will leave you with 5,000 elite soldiers. You must persist from midnight to tomorrow. When this general returns, he will personally celebrate with you!"

"No! Former General, please don't worry. The last general will make Xiahou and Cao Chun come and go!" Han Qi took the command arrow and his hands were hammering in his chest.

Li Ru nodded, stroked his beard, and a strange flashed in his eyes: "Deputy General Han, Li has a plan in mind, you may give it a try!"

"Mr. Wenyou is just talking, but you will dare to follow me!"

"At midnight tonight, you can hang sheep and drums in the tent and put more hay and shredded shreds, but you lead your troops to lie on both sides of the camp. Just wait for Xiahou and Cao Chun's army to arrive, and then attack with fire to take advantage of the chaos. Cao's army will inevitably be defeated, or you can also kill Xiahou and Cao Chun's head!"

"Thank you, Mr., if you can win the heads of the two thieves by chance, you will definitely not return without getting drunk!" Han Qi laughed loudly and roughly, like a hungry tiger that was eating people in the middle of the night.
