Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 824: Cao Cao breaks Xuzhou

"For the sake of the soldiers and people of Xuzhou, there is no harm in me going to war. I think how much fun it was when I, Yun Chang, and Yide killed the Yellow Turbans. Tonight, my three brothers will go out to kill thieves again." Liu Bei said.

Seeing that Liu Bei had made up his mind, Guan Yu had no choice but to look at Chen Deng a little differently. Chen Deng's words were stimulating to a certain extent. However, looking at Chen Dengyun's calm expression, Guan Yu could only

Put aside your doubts, this is a critical moment for Xuzhou, and there are many places where you can rely on Chen Deng.

At the third watch, the city gate that had been closed for half a month slowly opened, and the cavalry filed out. The leader held a snake spear of eight feet and walked slowly towards Cao Jun's camp. After a while, two cavalrymen walked out of the city gate again.

After Cao Cao received the letter sent by Chen Deng, he laughed and said: "Heaven is going to destroy Liu Bei's son."

"Congratulations, lord." Cheng Yu and others hurriedly expressed their congratulations.

Except for Cao Cao's most trusted advisors, no one else knew about the secret communication between the Chen family and Cao Jun.

"Xiahou Dun, I order you to lead five thousand soldiers and ambush outside the west gate. The fire on the city will serve as a signal. After the city gate is opened, lead the soldiers into the city and capture the Prefecture Mufu." Cao Cao ordered.

"Here." Xiahou Dun stepped out and cupped his fists.

"Xu Chu, I order you to lead five thousand soldiers and ambush outside the east gate. Using the fire as a signal, you will rush directly into the city and capture the military camp inside the city."

"Here."

Order after order was passed on, and Cao's army began to move up and down.

Xiahou Dun, who was ambushing at the west gate, quietly watched Liu Guan and Zhang lead their cavalry towards their own camp, with a sneer on his lips. After tonight, Xuzhou will belong to Cao Cao.

Zhang Fei led a thousand cavalry into the camp. As expected by Chen Deng, they encountered fierce resistance. For a while, there were sounds of killing in the camp. Seeing this situation, Zhang Fei was not worried at all.

This situation was within Chen Deng's expectation, which meant that the next two cavalry raids would be successful.

Hearing the shouts of killing from Cao Jun's camp, Guan Yu led his cavalry into Cao Jun's camp from the other side. Cao Jun's camp became a little panicked for a while. Guan Yu was overjoyed and led his cavalry on a rampage, constantly setting fire to Cao Jun's camp.

However, the camp was empty at this time, and the secret was not good. Guan Yu was preparing to evacuate, when he suddenly heard bursts of killing sounds coming from the left and right sides.

"We have fallen into Cao Cao's plan." Guan Yu shouted and led his cavalry to retreat while fighting.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Liu Bei led the cavalry to charge in. Similar to Guan Yu's situation, the scene that Chen Deng expected did not appear. Cao Jun seemed to be on guard and entangled the three cavalry groups in the camp.

The Xuzhou cavalry had stirrups and horseshoes, and were no less elite than Cao's army. However, the Qingzhou army among Cao's army was very elite, fought bravely, and was not afraid of death. They used their flesh and blood to entangle the cavalry.

Just when Cao's army was about to be killed, the east gate and west gate of Pengcheng slowly opened and were responsible for guarding Pengcheng. Chen Deng had already replaced the guards of the two gates with his own people.

Seeing the swaying firelight on the city, Xiahou Dun shouted loudly and led his cavalry to kill towards the west gate.

The situation after entering the city went smoothly as expected. The defenders in the city did not expect that Cao Jun would suddenly attack the city. When Xu Chu led the tiger and leopard cavalry to the military camp, the soldiers were still sleeping.

Not only Guan Yu and Liu Bei, but also Zhang Fei noticed something was wrong. From the battle to now, the number of Cao Jun's cavalry was too small. Cao Jun's cavalry was already quite large. How could there be no cavalry to assist in such a big event as a raid on a camp?

, where did Cao Jun’s cavalry go?

There were fewer and fewer cavalry around him. Liu Bei led the remaining cavalry to break out of the encirclement and headed towards Pengcheng. He knew that this sneak attack had failed again.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also led the cavalry to break out of the encirclement. At this time, Cao Jun, who lacked cavalry in the army, could not stop the Xuzhou cavalry from leaving.

After joining Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Liu Bei sighed. The two comforted Liu Bei and gathered the remaining soldiers.

After fighting out of Cao's army, the sky was already twilight. Seeing that Pengcheng was safe and sound, Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief. Guan Yu's analysis on the way back made Liu Bei anxious. Pengcheng was his foundation and there could be no mistakes.

"Open the city gate quickly!" Zhang Fei stepped forward and shouted.

The city gate creaked open, and Liu Bei urged the cavalry to enter the city. He lost a lot of cavalry among Cao's army, and Cao's army would definitely not give up.

"Liu Shijun, please don't enter the city. Chen Deng has already taken refuge with Cao Cao." As soon as a general finished speaking, he was beheaded.

Seeing that the plot was discovered, Xiahou Dun walked out from the defenders, pointed at Liu Bei from afar and laughed loudly: "Liu Bei, my son, now that Pengcheng belongs to Shanyang Marquis, why don't you get off your horse and accept the surrender, so as to prevent your family from suffering misfortune."

After speaking, the flag on the city was changed to the flag of Cao Jun.

At this point, how could Liu Bei not understand what happened in Pengcheng? From the sneak attack on Cao Jun's camp to the fall of Pengcheng, all of this was done by Chen Deng, whom he trusted. Only Chen Deng had this condition. The Chen family was a big family in Xuzhou.

, there were many generals in the army who sought refuge with the Chen family. Liu Bei did not ask anything about this matter. However, Chen Deng turned to Cao Cao, which Liu Bei never expected.

"Shameless Chen Deng, a seller seeking glory." Zhang Fei cursed loudly.

Chen Deng sneered and said: "Good birds choose trees to roost. After Liu Shijun entered Xuzhou, he brought war to Xuzhou. Many soldiers and people died in the war. Liu Shijun always regarded himself as benevolent and ceded Xuzhou to

Marquis Shanyang is a man of great benevolence and virtue."

Guan Yuce immediately stepped forward and said: "If I meet you one day, I will kill you."

"Liu Bei, please leave!" The city gate opened, and Xu Chu led the tiger and leopard cavalry to rush out.

Although Liu Bei had only a thousand cavalry under his command at this time, he had fierce generals such as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. After fighting for a while, he began to retreat.

"Brother, where are we going without Pengcheng?" Zhang Fei asked. The loss of Pengcheng was partly related to his warlike character. He also felt ashamed of Liu Bei.

Seeing that Liu Bei didn't look very good, Guan Yu stepped forward and persuaded him: "Brother, there is no need to worry. It will not harm others' families. Cao Cao understands this."

"The ones I'm worried about are not my family members, but the soldiers and civilians in the city. Fortunately, you and I, the three brothers, are not trapped in the city." Liu Bei said with tears in his eyes.

When Guan Yu heard this, he was deeply moved. He cupped his fists and said, "Don't worry, brother, I will bring elite troops to fight back to Xuzhou in the future."

Liu Bei waved his hand and said: "The war just caused more people to fall into war. We will go to Xiangyang to meet with the Holy Emperor."

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei still agree with the Holy Sage. Although the Han Dynasty is weak, it still has a great influence in the hearts of ordinary people.

On the way, Sun Qian came from the city. After Liu Bei comforted him, the group headed towards Xiangyang.
