The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Guo Jia came to Liu Zheng with this news.

"My lord, most of the territory of Yingchuan has been taken by us. Yangdi, Yingyang, Xuchang, Changshe and other places have all fallen into our hands."

"It won't be long before the whole of Yingchuan falls into our hands."

As soon as Guo Jia saw Liu Zheng, he immediately told Liu Zheng the news.

In fact, Liu Zheng already knew that Yingchuan could fall into his hands, but now that he heard the news, he was even more excited.

"Hahaha, have we finally captured Yingchuan? Then we are only one step away from Luoyang. I don't know if the little emperor sitting in the Luoyang palace can still do it."

Liu Zheng was quite excited.

"Your Majesty, although most of Yingchuan fell into our hands, the Xun family stationed in Xuchang betrayed us. He didn't choose to be with us, but helped Liu Bei and ran away from Xuchang City."

Speaking of this, Guo Jia felt somewhat regretful.

Originally, in Guo Jia's view, the Xun family was the head of Yingchuan and the most capable family. If the Xun family in Yingchuan could join in, for Liu Zheng and for the Han Dynasty established by Liu Zheng, it would be a great achievement. would be a big impact.

It can prompt the gentry in this world to follow the example of the Xun family and join Liu Zheng.

It's a pity that the Xun family did not choose to join Liu Zheng, but continued to use the strength of the whole family to follow Liu Bei.

This is a road to the dark.

For Liu Zheng, it is a pity and an encouragement.

At least Liu Zheng can understand that these gentry did not surrender so easily.

Literati still have a bit of backbone.

"Liu Bei ran away, and the Xun family did not join me. This is something I expected from the beginning. Feng Xiao doesn't have to worry."

Seeing Guo Jia say this, Liu Zheng expressed regret in his tone, so Liu Zheng immediately said something to Guo Jia.

"Liu Bei is not an impulsive person. Since he doesn't have many troops in Yingchuan, he will definitely not fight our army to the death. So his escape is what I thought of at the beginning."

"Besides, I have already ordered General Lu Bu to lead the trapped camp towards Hulao Pass. I must calculate the time. At this time, most of the roadblocks have been set up in front of Hulao Pass. As long as Liu Bei escapes to Hulao Pass If you go, you will be stopped by General Lu Bu."

As a modern person, Liu Zheng summed up what he knew about Liu Bei in his previous life, and he could easily know Liu Bei's result.

So knowing in advance that Liu Bei would abandon the city and leave, Liu Zheng of course had to make some arrangements in advance.

The soldiers and horses trapped in the camp have been used only now, just to allow them to intercept Liu Bei and defeat Liu Bei in one fell swoop.

As long as Liu Bei dies.

This world will be able to settle down.

After Guo Jia heard Liu Zheng's words, his eyes lit up.

He had always been worried that after Liu Bei escaped from Yingchuan County, he would be able to organize another wave of troops, and relying on Hulao Pass would also bring considerable resistance to Liu Zheng.

But now after hearing Liu Zheng's words, Guo Jia is not so worried.

Not only was he not worried, but he became more and more interested in whether Commander Lu Bu's trapped camp could repel Liu Bei, seal Liu Bei's retreat, and capture this mighty hero alive.

"Your Majesty still has the foresight!"

"It's not a foresight, but it's just a little understanding of our old opponent Liu Bei, and since we plan to attack Luoyang, we must naturally think of all the possibilities of Liu Bei in advance."

"Then we just need to wait for the news from Lu Bu in Xuchang."

After all, Liu Zheng and Guo Jia were in Xuchang City, slowly waiting for the news from Lu Bu.

The boundary of Xingyang.

Xingyang is very close to Hulao Pass, and precisely because it is very close to Hulao Pass, this place is a plain.

Liu Bei and others who escaped from Xuchang went all the way to Hulao Pass here.

To go to Hulao Pass, this is the only way to go.

"My lord, this is the boundary of Xingyang, after passing here we will soon arrive at Hulao Pass."

Jian Yong looked into the distance and estimated the current position.Soon enough, where they are now.

Thinking that since they have come here, they are not far from Hulao Pass, and they just need to speed up to Hulao Pass, then they will be safe.

After Liu Bei heard Jian Yong's words, a gleam of joy finally appeared on his face.

Hulaoguan is close in front of him, and he no longer has to worry about it when he returns to Hulaoguan.

"We have been traveling all the way from Xuchang to now and haven't had a good rest. Since the Hulao Pass is right in front of us, there should be no danger. Everyone is very tired. Why don't we rest here for a while."

This time when he came from Xuchang, Liu Bei was not himself. He also brought a large number of people from Xuchang City and the Xun family.

Because of such a large number of people, the troops are very large and they walk very slowly.

They didn't have a good rest on the road.

Now that Hulao is close at hand, Liu Bei wants to let these people under his command rest here for the time being.

Jian Yong frowned, just about to refuse.

It is safest to persuade Liu Bei to leave and enter Hulao Pass as soon as possible.

Xun Yan on the side also thought about the common people, so he spoke in Liu Bei's ear first.

"The general is kind. I think those people are quite tired. It is indeed a good idea to rest here. Anyway, Hulao Pass is not far away. If there is any danger, we can also go to Hulao Pass. "

"Besides, the enemy army has never pursued it. They are still far away from us. There should be no danger."

Although Liu Zheng's troops had been attacking Yingchuan, they did not send anyone to directly pursue Liu Bei, so that Liu Bei could keep a certain distance from Liu Zheng's army attacking Yingchuan County.

Because of this, Liu Bei was able to bring so many people to Xingyang next to Hulao Pass calmly.

Since Xun Yan has said so, then Liu Bei naturally has no objection.

Soon follow Xun Yan's words.

"Since that's the case, let's rest here for the time being. Send the order, and the army will stop and rest."

"Yes, my lord."

Liu Bei said so, Jian Yong could only follow through.

But not long after they sat down to rest, there was a faint sound of trampling horseshoes coming from the surrounding area.

The first thousand 320 chapter two interception

The sound is from far to near.

Sitting cross-legged at the beginning, a large number of people gathered in one place communicated loudly with each other, and they didn't notice the sound of horseshoes.

It was only when the sound of horse hoofs gradually became louder that it could no longer be covered up did they attract the attention of these soldiers.

"Horse hoofbeats, where is the sound of horseshoes?"

"No, it's from the direction of Xuchang!"

"It's over, it's over, the enemy is chasing us!"

The people and soldiers present at the scene soon heard the sound of the horses, and figured out the direction of the sound. After a little thought, they guessed that it was Liu Zheng's pursuers.

On the contrary, Liu Bei didn't panic too much when he heard the voice.

Instead, he forced himself to calm down and shouted at the soldiers around him.

"Don't be impatient everyone, maybe it's not Liu Zheng's men, maybe it's my second brother's cavalry."

The reason why Liu Bei thinks this way is because he knows that Liu Zheng doesn't have any cavalry in the Jingzhou area.

Most of Liu Zheng's cavalry was in Jizhou against the foreigners.

And there is a high probability that such a big commotion can be caused by Liu Bei's cavalry.

Hearing Liu Bei's words, those nervous soldiers calmed down a little.

At this time, Liu Bei immediately sent someone to find out whether it was his own troops or the enemy who heard the movement of the cavalry.

If it was his own troops, Liu Bei could still calm down a bit, but if it was really Liu Zheng's pursuer, then Liu Bei would be in a bit of trouble.

However, Liu Bei was not too nervous at this time, because listening to the movements of the cavalry, the number would not be too many, at most two to 3000 horses.

Although they are cavalry, there are tens of thousands of soldiers around Liu Bei now. These troops are not invincible against one or two thousand cavalry.

So Liu Bei was not too scared, he just wanted to find out the identity of the other party as soon as possible.

When the spies under Liu Bei started running to the rear, trying to find out the identities of the cavalry, the cavalry had gradually approached, and began to approach the resting place of Liu Bei and his men.

Two thousand cavalry rushed forward from the rear, led by Lu Bu, the number one general under Liu Zheng's command.

Lu Bu led Gao Shun and others, and had already marched from the direction of Luyang County to Hulao Pass two days earlier.

The location of Hulao Pass is not unfamiliar to Lu Bu. After all, he was here five years ago and fought against the coalition forces of the Eighteenth Route Princes.

With the men and horses, in order not to cause too much noise, they have been walking very slowly, until they came to the vicinity of Xingyang not long ago, waiting for Liu Bei's men and horses to appear here.

Not long ago, the spies sent out by Lu Bu really found out. Liu Bei's men and horses appeared near here, and Liu Zheng really guessed it.

This made Lu Bu excited immediately, thinking that his chance to make contributions had come.

As long as Liu Bei can be captured here and captured alive, then the biggest credit for attacking Jingzhou this time will be on Lu Bu's head.

Without even thinking about it, he directly led his two thousand trapped camps, killed them out, and headed straight for where Liu Bei's army was.

Because of the short distance and the fact that there was an ambush earlier, Lu Bu's men and horses easily found where Liu Bei's army was. The cavalry rushed up and approached the army in the blink of an eye.

When it was really approaching, the people around Liu Bei really realized that these cavalry were not friendly troops, but enemy troops.

Among the crowd, commotion began.

"No, it's really an enemy army!"

"Run away, the enemy is coming!"

Those soldiers who had already calmed down because of Liu Bei's words changed their mood at this moment, and some even started to flee to the periphery.

Most of these people are just ordinary people who were driven out of Xuchang City by Liu Bei.

A large part of them actually didn't want to leave Xuchang City.

It's just that due to helplessness, under the leadership of Liu Bei and the Xun family, they had to leave their homeland and head to the north.

After walking on the road for such a long time now, many people have emotions in their hearts.

They just suppressed it all the time and didn't break out. Now at this moment, they heard the enemy's chasing soldiers coming from behind. These people were scared to death. They were afraid that the enemy's cavalry would overtake them and start a war, and they would die miserably on the spot.

The timid people fled directly, and they didn't care about so much, and there were some courageous people left.

This is to run to where Liu Bei is. They know that there are tens of thousands of soldiers around Liu Bei. With these people, they still have the strength to fight. Besides, Liu Bei will definitely not let them go. They will definitely let these soldiers protect these people.

The only safe place nearby may be beside Liu Bei.

After thinking about this clearly, many people leaned towards Liu Bei's side.

At this moment, Liu Bei also became nervous.

Before, he thought that the men and horses chasing from behind might be the soldiers of his second brother Guan Yu.

But now that he knew it wasn't his second brother's man, he began to vaguely worry that this man was Liu Zheng's soldier.

Especially when he looked far away and saw the familiar outfits of the cavalry rushing to the front, he was even more frightened. Isn't this the most elite cavalry trapped in the camp under Liu Zheng's command?

"It's the camp under Liu Zheng's command!"

After seeing the cavalry in the distance, Liu Bei's expression changed drastically and he blurted out.

"Why are they here! They shouldn't be!"

"Quick, immediately order General Zhang Xiu to lead the soldiers and horses to form a human wall to prevent these cavalry from rushing over!"

After learning that these troops were enemies, Liu Bei immediately ordered Zhang Xiu, the only remaining general around him.

Lead the remaining troops to form a human wall to prevent the cavalry from charging.

After all, although the 2000 cavalry under Lu Bu's command are not many in number, facing the infantry around Liu Bei today, they are simply god-like existences.

Regardless of the extreme inferiority of the troops, Lu Bu's 2000 troops are no problem against Liu Bei's more than [-] elite soldiers. If a good defensive formation is not formed at the first time, once they are dispersed by the enemy cavalry.

Tens of thousands of elite soldiers would be scattered by these 2000 troops without even burning a stick of incense, and they would be defeated in the end.

Liu Bei quickly ordered Zhang Xiu. After Zhang Xiu passed the previous battle in Fancheng, his stomach was full of anger.

Now confronting Liu Zheng's soldiers and horses again, I was naturally a little angry. I followed Liu Bei's instructions and immediately went down to lead the army, keeping the infantry close together, and defending in front with heavy shields. I wanted to use the human wall to hold the cavalry first. The first wave of charge.
