The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

"What do you say, we listen to you!"

Chapter Seventy-Twenty-Three Fate Is Inescapable

Tian Kai followed and nodded.

Recommended by Kong Rong and Tian Kai, Liu Bei wanted to show off his skills, so he did his part, and together with the two said: "Cao Cao has a crowd of [-] people, fighting head-on, we have little chance of winning, so I dare to ask you two for help."

"Xuande, please tell me."

Liu Bei continued: "We will enter Tan County later, and the two of you will lead the troops to attack Cao's main formation. If Cao Cao sends someone to intercept and kill you, you don't have to fight, just retreat. I will take the opportunity to enter the city and fight with Cao Cao first. Taozhou Mu is converging."

The two thought for a while and nodded in response.

Afterwards, each assembled their troops and began to reinforce Tan County.

Amidst the sounds of countless fights, the sky gradually dimmed.

Afterglow slanting, sunset hillside.

Above and below the city, there were piles of abandoned corpses, and blood flowed freely.

"My lord, let's go, I'm afraid Tan County won't be able to keep it!"

Cao Bao withdrew from the front line, threw away the curling blade in his hand, and retreated in front of Tao Qian, panting heavily.

After two consecutive days of fierce fighting, Cao Jun, who was besieging the city, certainly paid a heavy price.But on their side, most of the soldiers guarding the city were also killed. Tao Qian had no choice but to mobilize the common people in the city to transport supplies and defend the city together.

At this moment, even Cao Bao lost his confidence in fighting. Tao Qian covered his face and cried bitterly: "Could it be said that the sky is going to kill me in Xuzhou!"

"Father, the green hills are still there, so we don't have to worry about running out of firewood. Let's retreat first!" Tao Qian's two sons shrank back, not daring to look at the bloody battlefield outside.

Cao Bao nodded and agreed: "What the two young masters said is very true. As long as the master nods, I will immediately arrange people to escort us out of Tan County."

"What about these soldiers?"

"Let them fight to the death with Cao Jun on the city tower, it can be regarded as loyalty to the lord." Cao Bao lowered his voice, if the soldiers heard these words and knew that they would abandon them, it would definitely cause a mutiny immediately.

But if no one resisted Cao Jun at the top of the city, it would not be so easy for Tao Qian and others to evacuate safely.

In comparison, the lives of these soldiers and common people are not so important.

The fierce battle on the front line is in full swing. Although the defenders in Tan County are outnumbered, their will is extremely firm.Even if the body is pierced with several fist-sized blood holes by spears and swords, no one is willing to fall if there is only one breath left.

They resisted desperately and exchanged their lives with the invading thieves. What they thought in their hearts was to guard the last home.

Tao Qian withdrew his gaze, he raised his hand, and his two sons hurried over to help him.

After getting up, Tao Qian coughed slightly, but without much hesitation, he took his son and trusted officials and set off, preparing to walk down the tower and retreat to the north.

But at this time, the guards on the tower suddenly exclaimed excitedly: "The reinforcements have arrived, the reinforcements have arrived!"

Cheers for a while brought back a lot of morale.

Even Tao Qian, who had reached the stone ladder, turned around and came back to the edge of the city wall under the guard of Cao Bao and his own soldiers.

Standing on the wall and looking away, two groups of soldiers and horses came from the flanks of Cao Jun, and the two surnames of "Kong" and "Tian" were written on the eye-catching flag.

Tao Qian was overjoyed, the rescuers from Kong Rong and Tian Kai must have arrived!

Cao Cao below obviously noticed this too. He squinted his eyes and looked at the posture of the two soldiers and horses, as if they were coming towards him.

A defeated general, dare to sneak attack?

Cao Cao scoffed again and again, and immediately shouted: "Yuan Rang, Wen Qian!"

"The end is here!"

Xiahoudun and Le Jin responded loudly and clasped their fists at the same time.

"Both of you lead five thousand soldiers and horses, go and cut them off!"

"Order!"

The two led the soldiers and horses and rushed over. Cao Cao turned around and shouted: "Send the order, don't stop the sound of the attack horn! Today, I must break through Tan County!"

"Brother, Cao Jun is attacking!"

Seeing Cao Jun's movements, Zhang Fei, holding a Zhangba spear in his hand, was very excited.

Liu Bei's eyes were solemn, and he made a new plan.

He drew a simple sketch on the sand, marking Cao Jun, Tan County and their locations.

"Cao Cao's Chinese army now has more than [-] troops. If we do the opposite, Cao Cao will definitely miss it, so this is a great opportunity."

Liu Bei glanced over Guan, Zhang, and Zhao Yun, and asked, "You three, who would like to lead the army?"

"Brother (Emissary), I would like to go!"

The three pleaded for orders at the same time.

Liu Bei hesitated for a while, and decided to let Zhao Yun go out.

When Zhao Yun rushed towards Cao Jun, he led Guan, Zhang and the rest of his soldiers into the city to join Tao Qian.

"Zilong, be careful! Even if you can't defeat Cao Cao, please come back safely!" Liu Bei said sincerely to Zhao Yun as he set off.

Zhao Yun nodded, "Please rest assured, Yun will live up to your expectations!"

After finishing speaking, Zhao Yun turned around to greet the cavalrymen he had brought, and got on his horse.

The sound of galloping horseshoes quickly attracted Cao Jun's attention. Standing beside Cao Cao, Dian Wei said in a low voice, "My lord, there is another enemy army!"

Cao Cao saw that there were about 800 cavalry in this cavalry, which was relatively small, but it had a very distinctive feature.

Everyone rides a white horse.

In recent days, Cao Cao has fought repeatedly, and his confidence has been unprecedentedly inflated.

He thought these cavalrymen were nothing more than showy and empty airs, so he didn't take it to heart for a while, and asked the generals sideways: "Who wants to go to defeat the enemy!"

As soon as the words fell to the ground, a majestic general clasped his fists and begged for orders: "The last general is willing to go!"

Everyone saw that this man was wearing armor and holding a gun, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he was born with a dignified appearance and an extraordinary appearance.

The breeze blew over the face that was as sharp as a knife, and there was a hint of cruelty in the perseverance.

Behind it, there is also a sword on its back, which is particularly conspicuous.
