The Legend of Yuan Yao in the Three Kingdoms

It was also this sentence that made Lu Bu not in the slightest hurry. Unlike the previous storming of the city, this time he really took it slow.

Not to mention being a little far away from the city, they patrolled day and night according to Chen Gong's instructions to prevent Xiahou Dun from robbing the camp by surprise.

It was so cautious that after half a month, Chen Gong let Lv Bu begin to conquer Pengcheng until news from other sources confirmed that Cao Cao had been pinned down by Yuan Shu's army.

"Marquis Wen, now that the Empress General is in place, Cao Cao has no more reinforcements to send, and Pengcheng is ready to be taken!"

Lu Bu responded accordingly.

"Cao Mengde attacked me Lu Bu several times, today is a day of shame!"

With a loud shout, he immediately led the army and personally attacked the city.

Falling into the camp, Gao Shun took the lead and climbed the city on a ladder.

In the camp, there were two Hou Cheng who had committed crimes and performed meritorious deeds. Wei Xu charged forward, and Pengcheng was on the verge of trembling and crumbling.

Especially the soldiers in the city are not stupid, knowing that Cao Cao is facing several armies, and it is very likely that he will not be able to get reinforcements, this morale has really plummeted.

Inside the city, only Han Hao was fighting to the death, taking the lead at the city gate, but there was no one-eyed general Xiahou Dun.

Lu Bu, who was sitting in the back of the town, saw it clearly, and said with a sneer, "You dare not face our army directly, but you are a coward!"

The thought just flashed by, but he saw dust and smoke billowing from the side, and a cavalry was attacking him.

"Good guy, this blind Marquis Xia dared to send troops to attack our camp. He really deceived me that Lu Bu didn't know soldiers, so he could be defeated so easily?"

Seeing Xiahou Dun's attack, Lu Bu really only felt slighted. Immediately, he waved Fang Tian's painted halberd, and shouted, "Boys! Follow me, Lu Feng, to defeat the enemy general first!"

After all, he led his army and horses and headed towards the place where the dust and smoke billowed.

When he got closer, he saw that one-eyed Xiahou was coming with a long knife.

Lü Bu's mind is not good enough, so it goes without saying that he has such force, he just shouted loudly: "Xiahou Dun! You have the guts to fight me, Lv Bu!"

Xiahou Dun was currently wearing a blindfold on one eye, and only one eye was showing a fierce light. Seeing Lu Bu, he was not afraid at all, and responded loudly: "Lu Bu, you have been defeated by the prime minister time and time again, and now you have found a backer, but you have become more stubborn." Already!"

Motherfucker!

He even said that I, Lu Bu, had found a backer!

Lu Bu was furious when he heard this, and immediately reprimanded: "Xiahou Dun! Leave your dog's life here today!"

Lu Bu's prestige was so strong that even Xiahou Dun knew that if the two of them fought together, he would never be able to defeat Lu Bu.

Just lead the troops of the troops and lead the army to rush to kill them.

It's just that although Cao Cao's cavalry is strong, Lu Bu's cavalry is not weak.

These are all wolf riders brought out from Bingzhou all the way, how can they be afraid of Cao Cao's tiger and leopard riders?

When the two armies intersected, there was a burst of killing cries.

Lu Bu swung Fang Tian's painted halberd, stood on the horse, opened and closed, and chopped off several soldiers rushing towards him one after another.

Just a few small soldiers could not calm Lu Bu's anger. Lu Bu looked around in the rebellious army and caught a glimpse of Xiahou Dun who was also harvesting ordinary soldiers on his side.

Immediately, the anger attacked his heart again, and he went to kill Xiahou Dun.

The red rabbit horse under its crotch ran with all its strength, and within a few breaths, it approached Xiahou Dun.

Xiahou Dun was blind in one eye, but his reaction was not slow.

Seeing Lu Bu attacking, he raised his long knife to meet him.

It's just that Lu Bu is not only good at martial arts, but also very strong.

Think about it, too, a height of one foot, that is a giant, how can the strength be small?

But they saw Lu Buli and Chitu immediately raised Fang Tian's painted halberd and threw it down at Xiahou Dun!

Xiahou Dun knew that he was invincible, but he couldn't retreat immediately.

Only a "bang" was heard, and it was just a blow. Xiahou Dun's arms were already trembling a little, and he was about to show his timidity if he was not careful.

A master's fight, really will not let go of a little detail.

Seeing Xiahou Dun's state clearly, Lu Bu laughed wildly and said, "I've only used five percent of my strength, why can't you even take a single blow?"

In fact, how can one play with one's own life on the battlefield here? No matter how arrogant Lu Bu is, once on the battlefield, he has to use all his strength.

With the forceful blow just now, Lu Bu mustered all his energy!

In this way, it was just an attempt to attack Xiahou Dun's self-confidence.

It's just that Xiahoudun can't get into the trap, I'm afraid that he is really afraid, and he took the initiative to make a move, and even shouted: "Lu Bu! Don't use your tongue quickly, just look at my move!"

After all, he lowered his body and attacked Lu Bu's left side.

Lu Bu resisted one after another, sighing in his heart that Xiahou Dun was blind in one eye, but he was considered brave.

Just say that this saber technique is quite exquisite!

It's a pity that Xiahou Dun, who completely attacked Lu Bu's left, was already noticed by Lu Bu and was affected by his blind left eye.

At least in terms of field of vision, there are many restrictions.

Otherwise, you can't just attack your left side!

Lu Bu found a flaw, how could he miss it.Pushing the red rabbit horse under his crotch, he turned around and came to Xiahou Dun's blind side, which was to attack Xiahou Dun fiercely.

Xiahou Dun jumped in fright, and wanted to turn around quickly, but unfortunately Lu Bu's equestrian skills are too good, and he has a perfect understanding with Chituma. He kept this awkward angle with Xiahou Dun, just to bully Xiahou Dun's vision is limited.

He couldn't compare to Lv Bu's Xiahou Dun, but now he can't.

"Sure enough, it is impossible to defeat Lu Bu with personal bravery."

Sighing secretly in his heart, Xiahou Dun made a feint, turned around and ran away.

Where would Lu Bu be willing to let go, the Chituma was extremely fast, and chased Xiahou Dun closely.

Fortunately, there are many loyal and brave men under Xiahoudun's camp, and they went on to intercept Lu Bu again and again.

No matter how strong Lu Bu was, he didn't dare to go too deep and be surrounded by hundreds of people.

I had no choice but to abandon Xiahoudun and vent my anger with a few intercepted soldiers.

Over there, Xiahou Dun saw that Lv Bu could not be defeated, so he had to draw his troops back.

It's just that the direction of withdrawal seems to be a bit wrong!

Lu Bu watched helplessly as Xiahou Dun didn't head towards Pengcheng, but turned in a different direction and left the city directly!

Lu Bu immediately wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Chen Gong.

"Marquis Wen, don't chase after the poor, just in case there are frauds. Since Xiahou Dun abandoned the city and left, it is a good opportunity for us to capture Pengcheng. How can we go after Xiahou Dun instead of the big and the small?"

Lu Bu stopped his steps immediately after hearing this, and even responded: "Gongtai is right, we should capture Pengcheng first."

After saying that, he led the army and shouted into the city: "Everyone in the city listen! You wait for the general to withdraw, why bother to fight to the death? Quickly open the city and surrender, and you will not die!"

The surrounding soldiers also echoed and shouted, and in an instant, the news of Xiahou Dun's direct escape resounded through Xiapi City.

Chapter 325 The Shadow of Prosperity

The main general has run away, so of course Pengcheng cannot be defended.

Although Lu Bu was not good at siege warfare, Pengcheng, whose generals had all run away, could not be attacked.

Personally supervise the battle, all the generals will fight the enemy bravely, with momentum like a rainbow.

Compared to this time, the morale in Pengcheng was much lower, and even Han Hao, who was fighting to the death, was a little discouraged.

An hour later, Peng Chengzhong couldn't hold on any longer, and Han Hao, who was cornered by Gao Shun and others, took the lead in surrendering.

...

Lu Bu was in a good mood after recapturing Pengcheng, an important city in Xuzhou.Facing Han Hao, it is rare to have the thought of surrendering.

"Then Xiahou Dun abandoned the city and turned his back on you and other loyal and brave men. Why is General Han still looking for it so hard?"

"I think General Han is also considered a loyal person, why don't you abandon the dark and turn to the bright, and return to my account?"

Lu Bu's rare kind words, but Han Hao just kept silent.

Lu Bu knew that his reputation was not very good, and it was indeed quite difficult to recruit people to surrender.

Seeing that Han Hao didn't say anything, he felt a little annoyed again.

Seeing that Han Hao's tone changed slightly, he said coldly: "Since General Han has the ambition to die, Lu will also consider it a fulfillment, come here, take this General Han..."

"Soldiers should repay the king's kindness with death, how can they be greedy for life and fear death!"

Before Lu Bu finished speaking, Han Hao shouted.

"Although we meet a general who is running away from the battle today, how can he follow his appearance and surrender to the enemy's formation?"

"I just ask Marquis Wen to treat the people of Pengcheng kindly, and don't want to kill innocent people indiscriminately."

After saying this, Gao Shun, who had been watching with cold eyes, suddenly spoke.

"The general guarded the lonely city hard, and he has already paid back his kindness to that Xiahou Dun, so why should he just die here again?"

"Even if Cao Mengde heard it, he can't blame the general!"

Lu Buna was very familiar with Gao Shun's disposition.

Taciturn, resolute temperament.

Seeing him spend so much talking today, it is obvious that he really loves talents, how can he kill Han Hao so easily.

Just keep silent and wait to see how Han Hao responds.

But seeing that Han Hao heard Gao Shun's words, he was only silent for a while, and then he sighed after a while, and said: "I just want to stay with Pengcheng, not against the old master."

Lu Bu was overjoyed when he heard the words, and immediately agreed: "General Han's request, Lu Mou will certainly answer, and stay in Pengcheng with peace of mind."

Only then did Han Hao nod his head, as if he had voted for Lu Bu.

And Lu Bu, who captured the city and took in a good general, rewarded the army in Pengcheng at night.

The morale of the entire Northern Expedition army was even stronger.

...

The next day, Lu Bu discussed with Chen Gong and Han Hao, the new accountant, about their plan to capture Pengcheng.

The first thing to be clear is Xiahou Dun's whereabouts.

"Where did Xiahou Dun go, I really don't know."

"This time in the battle of defending the city, he only said that he would lead an army to surprise Wenhou's camp. Although I tried to dissuade him several times, he didn't agree."

"I don't think that the attack failed, but he just abandoned the city and left. Therefore, I really don't know where he went."

Lu Bu nodded.

Han Hao's words sounded reasonable, without any flaws.

"In this way, Xiahou Dun didn't have a plan when he left, and he may not be far away. I should send scouts to scout around."

"It's just that no matter where Xiahou Dun goes, we can't stop."

After saying that, he turned his head to look at Chen Gong and asked: "Gongtai, with the current momentum, what should we do?"

To be honest, before Lu Bu sent troops, he really didn't expect that Pengcheng could be taken by him so easily.

Although the route was naturally planned before the expedition, it was time to act according to the situation. Now that I was making great strides, I naturally had to see if there was any profit to be made.

Chen Gong heard Lv Bu's inquiry, and quickly responded with cupped hands: "I expect Xiahou Dun to abandon the city and leave, not to return to Yanzhou, but to retreat to Qingzhou."

"If we go west, I'm afraid Qingzhou will still stare at Pengcheng. We are like a light on our backs, so we can't move lightly."

"We should continue the Northern Expedition and completely beat Cao Cao back to Yanzhou."

These words were exactly in line with Lu Bu's intentions.

If you want to confront Cao Cao head-on, you will inevitably suffer damage. If you can let Yuan Shu resist Cao Cao's main force, it is best to continue to expand yourself.

The current situation is not exactly what I thought!

Immediately, he responded: "Gongtai is right. If I don't beat Cao Cao out of Qingxu, I won't be able to sleep or eat! I won Pengcheng today, so I should take advantage of the victory and pursue it. Don't let Xiahou Dun go!"

Chen Gong nodded repeatedly.

Such an approach should be most effective against Lu Bu.
