Chapter 38
While Cao Jian was preparing for a rainy day in Xuzhou City, the situation in Xiapi and Xiaopei had already changed again and again!
First, Lu Bu and Chen Gong led 20,000 troops to Xiapi and joined forces with Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and others who were defending the city.
After learning about the tragic defeat in Xiaopei City and the loss of his own troops,
Lu Bu, the world's best general, was furious on the spot:
"Bastard! Good-for-nothing!!!"
After scolding Gao Shun and Zhang Liao,
Lu Bu quickly turned his anger around and directed it at Cao's army!
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the world's most powerful man, without any manners, yelled at the air again:
"Damn Cao thief, so abominable and hateful!"
"They took my city and killed my soldiers!
This is intolerable!
I would be unworthy of being a human if I don't take revenge!——!!!"
In a rage, he didn't even have time to think about how to punish Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and other generals, but shouted that he would make Cao's army pay double the price!
After a simple rest for half a day.
Lu Bu assembled the most elite Bingzhou Wolf Riders under his command!
He also selected Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and other fierce generals!
Then, together with the generals, he led more than 20,000 people and rushed to Xiaopei with murderous intent!
After learning the intelligence, the Cao army hurriedly gathered its troops.
Facing Lu Bu's side, which is known as the best cavalry in the world?
Even generals such as Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, and Li Dian did not dare to go out of the city to meet the enemy without authorization.
Under the planning of military advisor Guo Jia, they had to stay in Xiaopei and fight a defensive battle honestly.
Then, Cao and Lu launched a new round of offensive and defensive battles inside and outside the walls of Xiaopei...
Normally, the troops of the attacking party must be far more than the defending party before the city can be broken.
The current situation:
Lv Bu's side has only more than 20,000 troops;
Cao's vanguard troops, apart from the 10,000 troops already stationed in Xuzhou City, also have 20,000 troops left in Xiaopei for defense.
The number of troops on both sides is almost equal, so Cao's defense should have been superior...
However, perhaps it is because Lv Bu's reputation as the world's number one general is too loud!
The combat power of Bingzhou Iron Cavalry and the"Entrapment Camp" is too fierce!
Especially Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and others, who have already broken through Xiaopei once before and have gained experience!
In addition, Lv Bu's side came for revenge, and their morale was extremely high! In contrast
:
Cao's side was afraid of Lv Ruhu, and their morale was already affected; plus Xiaopei's city was low, and the city defense was not as strong as other important cities!
Multiple factors were superimposed!
In the end, Lv Bu's side blew the horn of the siege very fiercely!
After a fierce battle, Xiaopei City was in danger of being broken by Lv Bu's side again!
Critical moment!
Fortunately, the follow-up 30,000 troops led by Boss Cao arrived in time!
Cao's army had 50,000 soldiers in and outside the city, and they attacked from both inside and outside, instantly changing the situation!
In addition, Liu Bei's side had the assistance of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, two powerful generals who could defeat 10,000 enemies! Under multiple attacks, even the bravest general in the world, Lu Bu, was defeated!
In the end, Lu Bu's side lost many soldiers and retreated to Xiapi City to defend.
Cao's army took advantage of the victory to pursue!
In addition to the 3,000 soldiers who stayed in Xiaopei.
The remaining more than 40,000 soldiers all participated in the siege of Xiapi!
The offensive and defensive situation was completely reversed in an instant!
Xiapi City has high walls and is surrounded by water on three sides, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack! Lu Bu used Chen Gong's strategy to defend and resist Cao's army.
Even if Cao was as strong as a soldier, and had Xun You and Guo Jia as military advisors, he could not do anything for a while.
As a result, the battle between the two sides fell into a long stalemate...
Seeing that the situation in Xiapi City was in a white-hot stage.
Liu Bei, who had already become a supporting role, finally took a break from his busy schedule: he remembered the two wives, Gan Mei and Mi Zhen, whom he had cruelly abandoned in Xiaopei when he fled!
He was full of joy, looking forward to a long-awaited reunion and a reunion.
In the end, looking at the empty room where everything had changed?
Poor Liu Bei almost shed tears again:
""Where did the two ladies go? ? ?"
