Chapter 95: Liu Bei Gets Xuzhou
"My lord, you can't do this." Seeing Cao Cao admit his mistake, the three of them naturally didn't know what to say.
"I wonder why my lord thought of sending Liu Bei south, and how could he think of chasing Liu Bei down?" Guo Jia then asked.
"Liu Pi in Runan rebelled, and he sent Liu Bei out of desperation. But a few days later someone came to report that all Liu Bei's family members had run away. Only then did I realize something was wrong, and I quickly sent Xiahou Dun with tiger and leopard cavalry to intercept."
Cao Cao smiled bitterly and told everything that happened in the past few days.
"My lord, Liu Bei is your royal uncle. Now that the Han Dynasty is declining, this man has always been ambitious. Now that he has left Xudu, he will definitely use his status as a clan member of the Han Dynasty to recruit people with lofty ideals from all over the world in the name of supporting the Han Dynasty.
If we are enemies, we will eventually become a big trouble in the future." Cheng Yu said with a very ugly face.
"There are too many clan members in the Han Dynasty. We have Liu Biao in Jingzhou and Liu Zhang in Yizhou. If Liu Bei doesn't have anything, what should we fear?" Cao Cao argued a little unwillingly.
"My lord, Liu Biao and Liu Zhang are powerful, but they are not as famous as Liu Bei. When the time comes for this person to ascend to the top and call upon all the people with lofty ideals, if he follows Liu Bei, the world will be in trouble again." After a pause, Guo Jia continued.
"Liu Bei doesn't have much power now, but my lord, please don't forget that Liu Bei is very good at winning people's hearts, and he has won the hearts of the people in Xuzhou. If Liu Bei goes south to Xuzhou this time, and he has your
When the appointment comes, Che Zhou, the governor of Xuzhou, will definitely go to greet him. If Liu Bei takes the opportunity to take advantage of Xuzhou, it may be in danger."
"Ah, no, this is very possible." Cheng Yu took a breath of cold air and couldn't help but panicked.
"Ah, you thief Liu Da'er, one day I, Cao Mengde, will cut you into pieces." Cao Cao cursed angrily.
"Lord, please calm down. As of now, it's up to Xia Houyuan to let go." Xun Yu sighed and said.
"What Wen Ruo said is that my lord can send an envoy to Xuzhou to report to General Che Zhou. I hope he can come in time." Guo Jia lamented and said.
"Well, I'll do it right now."......

Xuzhou direction
Liu Bei led Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Chen Dao, Jian Yong, Sun Qian and five thousand elite troops to rush south.
Liu Bei stopped again and shouted: "No, it's still too slow. Second brother and third brother, you go and select all the cavalry in the army. We have to go to Xuzhou as quickly as possible."
Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Chen Dao, Jian Yong, Sun Qian and others were all shocked. Zhang Fei said anxiously: "Brother, our marching speed is already the fastest, why is it not enough?"
"Third brother, don't say anything. Just listen to me. Gather all the cavalry and we will rush to Xuzhou." Liu Bei said in a deep voice.
"Brother, you haven't told us why we are in such a hurry to go to Xuzhou?" Guan Yu couldn't help but asked curiously.
"I want to take back Xuzhou and take back what should have been ours." Liu Bei said firmly.
Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Chen Dao, Jian Yong, Sun Qian and others were shocked when they heard this and looked at Liu Bei.
"You only have one chance, act quickly." Liu Bei said here.
"Then what should be done with these infantry?" Jian Yong asked
"The infantry continues to move forward at a fast pace. If Cao Cao sends people to chase him, we won't be able to take him away. If he doesn't chase us, we will take it for ourselves."
"like"
...
three days later
Chen Dao led thousands of infantrymen and pursued Liu Bei with all their strength. Recalling all the dangers in Xudu, Chen Dao finally felt a sense of relaxation both physically and mentally.
Just when Chen Dao felt very happy, there was a sudden violent vibration on the ground.
After all, Chen Dao was a veteran on the battlefield, and he felt it right away. In an instant, Chen Dao's heart suddenly fell to the bottom, and he couldn't help but change his face and said: "No, there are cavalry chasing."
The pursuers, and they are also cavalry, must be sent by Cao Cao. How to resist them?
Let’s not talk about whether the infantry can defeat the cavalry. Even if they can, these few thousand soldiers and horses are originally Cao Cao’s army. How could they resist Cao Cao’s army with an outsider like him?
"Run." Chen Dao yelled and got on his horse. The few remaining followers around him were not slow and got on their horses one after another.
"Da da, da da." The vibrations on the ground became louder and louder, and finally a clear figure appeared, and the leader was Xia Houchun. "Follow me." Seeing Chen Dao and several people running away, he sent someone to gather the infantry.
Afterwards, Xia Houchun's single eye flashed with a cold light, and he ordered loudly.
"Kill." The tiger and leopard cavalry all let out a murderous cry and chased Chen Dao. But Chen Dao was not that easy to catch. After getting rid of the burden of the infantry, Chen Dao escaped as fast as he could.
It's naturally much faster.
"Catch up." Behind him, Xiahou Dun roared like a dog-skin plaster.
Up to this time, Liu Bei had not been seen. Xiahou Dun also knew the seriousness of the matter and couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
Xuzhou city gate
Liu Guan and Zhang looked up to the sky and laughed, but there was a corpse lying under their feet, and blood was still flowing out of the neck. This person was the chariot who came out to greet Liu Bei and was brutally murdered. Because Cao Cao massacred the city many times in Xuzhou, people were attracted by it.
The people and gods were outraged. At this moment, Liu Bei actually captured Xuzhou easily.
one day later
Liu Bei suddenly saw thousands of elite soldiers in front chasing a group of people. The leader was Chen Dao, and the pursuers in the rear were the feared Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.
Liu Bei couldn't help but snorted coldly and ordered: "Open the city gate and prepare to welcome General Chen. Order the archers to bow and shoot Cao Jun behind them."
"Promise." A general agreed and immediately went to issue the order.
Soon after, the city gates of Xuzhou were opened wide. Chen Dao was overjoyed that Liu Bei had really captured Xuzhou, and he immediately led his troops into the city.
Naturally, Xiahou Dun also saw Liu Bei on the top of the city, and his heart sank, as the worst thing happened. Naturally, Xiahou Dun was unwilling to give up, and planned to take advantage of the situation and attack the city to recapture Xuzhou again.
But at this moment, arrows rained down from the city. "Swish, swish, swish." Countless arrows roared in waves, shooting towards Xiahou Dun's tiger and leopard cavalry.
"Puch, plop."
"Ah, ah, ah." The soldiers screamed.
Xiahou Dun's face tightened. Although he was unwilling to do so, he knew that the overall situation in Xuzhou had been decided. He couldn't help but angrily yelled at Liu Bei on the top of the city: "The dog thief Liu Da'er."
Liu Bei just smiled at the top of the city and didn't respond at all.
"Retreat the troops" Seeing this scene, Xiahou Dun could only lead his troops to leave with this hatred...
Xuzhou Mufu Mansion
It was so heavy that Liu Bei in Xuzhou was naturally very excited at this moment. At this moment, there was a burst of rapid footsteps, and the voice came before anyone arrived: "Brother, big brother, there are changes in Jiangdong." It was Zhang Fei who came.
