Lu Bu's strongest strategy

Chapter 196 Died
Cao Ren hastily swung his spear, barely blocking Zhang Fei's Zhangba Snake Spear.

On the other side, Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Saber also fell fiercely from the air, and slashed at Cao Ren's neck.

"what!"

Cao Ren hurriedly rode his horse to escape, but he was already in a cold sweat and his face turned pale.

Liu Bei on the other side also took this opportunity to stab Cao Ren's back fiercely with the double-strand sword in his hand.

Cao Ren had just dodged Guan Yu's big sword and was not wary of Liu Bei. When he realized it, the double-pronged sword had already pierced him. He hurriedly dodged, but it was too late, and he was stabbed in the ribs.

"what!"

When Cao Ren saw that Liu Bei's three brothers were so strong, his face changed in fright. He endured the pain, beat his horse and left.

On the other side, Zhang Fei also turned his horse's head and rushed towards Cao Ren.

"Cao Ren, if you want to leave, first ask about the Zhangba Snake Spear in my Lao Zhang's hand."

"kill!"

Zhang Fei kept roaring, Guan Yu didn't speak, but silently swung the Qinglong Yanyue Saber, went straight to Cao Ren and slashed fiercely.

Liu Bei rode his horse and circled behind Cao Ren again, ready to attack.

The three Liu Bei brothers were born with a predestined relationship, and they cooperated tacitly. Without special instructions, they could quickly form a three-person siege situation.

"kill!"

Zhang Fei took the lead, and the Zhangba Snake Spear pierced out like a dragon out of the sea, unstoppable.

Cao Ren was wounded, timid, and sweating profusely on his forehead. Seeing Zhang Fei's Zhangba Snake Spear stabbing him, he quickly swung his spear to block it.

Snapped!
The two weapons collided with each other, making a dull sound. Cao Ren only felt numbness in his arm, and knew it was wrong. He just wanted to pass by Zhang Fei, but he didn't expect that Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue Saber fell down again.

Cao Ren dodged in a hurry, and just dodged the Qinglong Yanyue Saber, Liu Bei's double-strand sword stabbed at him silently behind him.

puff puff!

This time, Cao Ren couldn't hold back anymore, and was immediately stabbed by Liu Bei.

"what!"

Cao Ren was hit by two arrows in the back, and suddenly he screamed in pain, but the sound stopped abruptly.

Zhang Fei's Zhangba Snake Spear had already pierced his throat.

Cao Ren looked at the Zhangba Snake Spear on his neck in disbelief, and tried hard to shout out, but in the end, he fell off the horse slowly and never moved again.

Cao Ren, Cao Cao's powerful general, was besieged and killed by the three Liu Bei brothers.

Cao Ren was killed in battle, and the soldiers of Cao's army could no longer hold on, and they fled in defeat.

Zhang Fei shouted, "Leave everything to me wherever you go."

"Kill!"

"Ahhh!"

The soldiers of Cao Jun were so frightened that they didn't dare to stay, so they ran away immediately.

The three brothers resented Cao Mengde's ruthlessness. Seeing that Cao Jun ran away, they refused to let him go, and immediately led their troops to chase after him.

……

Lv Bu led his troops to Xiaopei city, and seeing the city gate opened wide and in disarray, he couldn't help frowning.

Mi Zhu hurriedly galloped to the gate of the city, and after inquiring clearly, he rushed to Lu Bu and said with cupped hands.

"Marquis Wen, Cao Cao has already led his troops to retreat, and Liu Shijun has led his men to chase him."

After Mi Zhu said that Lu Bu wanted to know, he stepped aside and waited for Lu Bu's order.

Lu Bu nodded, turned to look at Jia Xu, and was about to speak when a spies galloped over.

"Report!"

"Report to Marquis Wen that Governor Guo has led his troops ten miles away."

Jia Xu hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "Marquis Wen, since Governor Guo's troops are not far away, why not wait for a while and discuss the next matters?"

Lu Bu nodded, "Send the order down, rest temporarily, and wait for Governor Guo."

Jia Xu turned around and cupped his hands at Lv Bu, and asked with a smile, "Marquis Wen, I have already found out that Cao Mengde left Xiaopei and headed east. If my prediction is correct, he should go to the East China Sea. Go to Qingzhou."

Hearing this, Lu Bu nodded in satisfaction, "In this way, the soldiers and horses of Langya County will come in handy."

Jia Xu nodded, "Cao Mengde's troops are not enough now, and they are passing through Langya County. Even if our army goes to pursue them, we will not need so many troops."

Lu Bu frowned, and turned to look at Jia Xu, "Wen He, what do you mean by that?"

Jia Xu turned to look south and said slowly, "Although Cao Mengde has arrived in Xiaopei, he will definitely have his troops in Xuzhou. It is better to let Guo Governor go to Xuzhou and take action in various ways to eliminate Cao Mengde's forces in one fell swoop."

Lu Bu nodded immediately when he heard Jia Xu's proposal, "That's good, and it doesn't conflict with our plan."

Not long after, Guo Gong arrived with soldiers and horses, and immediately went to see Lu Bu.

"I met Marquis Wen."

Lu Bu laughed and waved his hands, "Guo Inspector, you are one step late, Cao Mengde has already escaped."

"Escape?"

Hearing this remark, Guo Gong felt extremely rejoiced, thanks to listening to Wang Huai's words, otherwise, it would be really difficult to explain.

Lu Bu had easily defeated Cao Mengde without using his troops. It seemed that he had asked him to come here because he really wanted to test himself.

Thinking of this, Guo Gong lowered his posture, "Marquis Wen, since Cao Mengde has escaped, why don't you let me lead the troops to chase after him?"

Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "Cao Mengde led his troops to the East China Sea. You don't have to worry about this journey. Guo Governor, you can take your troops to Xuzhou and eliminate Cao Mengde's power in Xuzhou. Is it possible for you to do it?"

Hearing this sentence, Guo Gong hurriedly cupped his hands, "I am willing to listen to Marquis Wen's orders."

Lu Bu nodded, "It's not too late, Governor Guo, you should leave for Xuzhou now, in case things change."

Guo Gong hurriedly cupped his hands again, turned and left, and after a short time, he led his soldiers and horses towards Xuzhou.

After Guo Gong left, Lu Bu left Mi Zhu to guard Xiao Pei, and led Jia Xu and others to chase in the direction Cao Cao left.

Along the way, Lu Bu did not urge the soldiers to hurry up.

The reason why he did this was that these soldiers had traveled a long way and were already exhausted.

Another reason is that there are three Liu Bei brothers chasing Cao Mengde in front, let them beat them first.

……

Cao Cao led his soldiers and horses towards the East China Sea. After walking for [-] or [-] miles, the spies behind him rushed over on their horses.

"Report!"

"My lord, the broken soldiers and horses have been defeated."

"what?"

Although Cao Cao had expected it, he was still extremely shocked. He stared at the spy who sent the message with wide eyes, and asked in a trembling voice.

"What about General Zixiao, why didn't he come back?"

The spies cupped their hands, "General Cao is dead."

"Zixiao!"

Hearing the news, Cao Cao cried out in pain, tears streaming down his face.

"Who is it? Tell me quickly, who harmed Zixiao?"

"My lord, it was the three Liu Xuande brothers who joined forces. General Cao only insisted on a few moves before he died in battle."

"Liu Xuande!"

Cao Cao's face turned livid, he roared angrily, and then yelled, "Liu Xuande, you and I are at odds."
