Chapter 1085 : Chapter Five Hundred and Fortieth: Liu Bei's Escape (2)
"The people are the foundation. If I leave it alone, how can I guard Guangling? You must know that Guangling has only six counties and a population of more than 100,000.\%_%original_creation%_%\ Such a population cannot even feed an army of 20,000
It's difficult. But if we add these more than 100,000 people, we can double the number and feed an army of 30,000. It's enough to recharge our batteries." Liu Bei shook his head and flatly refused.
In addition to wanting to gain fame, there is also a deeper consideration.
Chen Deng sighed inwardly when he heard this. What Liu Bei said was also true.
The current situation is very unfavorable for them. I thought that taking advantage of Lu Su's Northern Expedition, they picked the right time and took advantage of the situation.[
They could completely separate themselves from Xuzhou, but they didn't expect to be blocked by Lu Su in the middle. This opportunity turned into a terrible trap, which not only consumed most of their strength that they had been able to maintain for many days.
And more importantly, they were exposed.
The goal of moving from darkness to light is really huge.
At this moment, Chen Deng's heart was filled with regret, why did he choose this opportunity?
"Promise." Chen Deng promised, turned around and left. Chen Deng's task was to restrain the soldiers and organize the people as much as possible, and he could not leave for too long.
Chen Deng left with regrets, and Liu Bei did the same.
He failed to use people, but was abandoned by them. In addition to regrets, Liu Bei also felt infinitely depressed.
Liu Bei took a deep breath, continued to mobilize his horses, and led the people to flee. Soon after, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu came to the front with their own soldiers.
The two men were stained with blood, and even their armors were damaged. It could be seen from their pale faces that their injuries were serious. These injuries were not only caused by Xiahou Dun's elite soldiers fighting for days in the face of the ban, but also by the fact that they were on the run.
When leaving Pengcheng, the two of them broke up and almost got trapped.
Fighting, being trapped, and breaking through the siege. With such accumulation, even the two tough guys Guan Yu and Zhang Fei couldn't stop them.
When Liu Bei saw the two of them, his eyes lit up, and he immediately expressed concern: "Is there nothing serious wrong with you two good brothers?"
Seeing Liu Bei's concerned eyes, Guan Yu and Guan Yu showed some smiles even though they were tired, and they both clasped their fists and said, "Don't worry, brother, I'm waiting for you to fight with all your might."
Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, but then his heart tightened and he asked: "How? Can we defeat Yu Jin and Xiahou Dun?"
"We are temporarily retreating." Zhang Fei's face turned ugly for a while when he heard this, and he said unwillingly.
"Temporarily repulsed." Liu Bei heard the deeper meaning and his face turned pale. However, when he thought that the leading generals of the other side were Xiahou Dun and Yu Jin, generals of Cao's army, and their morale was very high.
Liu Bei calmed down a little and thought with a wry smile.
It's good to repel them temporarily, but do you still want to defeat these two people?
"That's very good. You two worthy brothers will take a break for a while to replenish your physical strength." Thinking of this, Liu Bei said with a smile on his face.
"Promise." Guan Yu and Zhang Fei agreed and began to eat some dry food to replenish their physical strength.[
"Can I return to Guangling?"
Liu Bei raised his head and looked in the direction of Guangling. It was only a few hundred miles away from Guangling. If he rode fast, he could reach it in a day and a night.
But Liu Bei felt so far away.
Liu Bei rose up in Xuzhou and separatized the entire territory of Xuzhou, but was manipulated by Liu Feng and quickly swept across Xuzhou like an epidemic. Not only did all the Xuzhou he gained be defeated, but even his life may have been lost.
