"Moreover, they must have secretly pledged their allegiance to uncle.”
"Chen Deng and Chen Gui will take control of Langya County with their private troops and not give Lu Bu a chance to enter the city!”
"With General Xia Hou and Zhang He leading the army to pursue him, Lu Bu only has one choice now, and that is to flee to Xiapi!”
"In this case, out of the five counties of Xu Prefecture, only Xiapi is left. How can it stop the army of 100,000?”
Cao Cao was dumbfounded. Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Xun You, and Cheng Yu's faces darkened!
Liu Bei was envious, while Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were enlightened!
On the other hand, the four generals behind Yuan Xi revealed smiles!
"Hmph, my family and I are smart. You guys are far inferior!”
……
At this moment, Cao Cao had never thought that Yuan Xi would be able to guess such a secretive plan!
In that case, Yuan Xi's intelligence was not inferior to Xun Yu and Guo Jia's, and even surpassed his own?
Once Yuan Xi became the heir of the Yuan Family, how powerful would the Yuan Family's influence be?
Thinking of this, Cao Cao suddenly felt a headache!
In fact, Cao Cao had been observing Yuan Xi all this time!
From his observations, regardless of whether it was Guo Jia, Xun Yu, or the others, Yuan Xi was a hero!
No matter what he did, Yuan Xi always had his own confidence and trump cards!
If such a person were to become an enemy, it would really be quite terrifying!
Even so, Cao Cao still did not dare to attack Yuan Xi!
It was still the same sentence as before. With a mere Yanzhou, Cao Cao did not dare to fall out with Yuan Shao!
At least for now, they were still allies. Only when Cao Cao's accumulated strength became stronger would the gap between the two become smaller!
Only then would Cao Cao have a higher chance of winning!
Otherwise, if they really started a war now, Cao Cao would only die!
Thus, after suppressing the restlessness in his heart, Cao Cao's expression returned to normal as he laughed!
"Heroes really come from young people. Brother Benchu really gave birth to a good son. Such intelligence is really rare in the world. The title of Saint Child is worthy of its name!”
At this point, Cao Cao waved his hand and said!
"Since Nephew has won, then Uncle promises you that once Xiapi City falls, Lu Bu's family, Gao Shun, Qin Yilu, and the others will all be yours!”
After saying this, Cao Cao also asked Liu Bei to be a witness!
Liu Bei was naturally willing to give Cao Cao and Yuan Xi face!
Then, Cao Cao used the excuse that he had drunk too much wine and prepared to rest for a while!
After the person on the main seat left, Yuan Xi no longer had any intention of staying here. Instead, he left with Lu Bing and Yan Wen!
Zhang Fei involuntarily muttered after everyone had left!
"Good boy, I didn't expect that Yuan Xi little…cough cough, that Yuan Xi actually had such ability. If only big brother had such a strategy!”
Hearing this, Liu Bei suddenly shivered!
That's right, if he, Liu Bei, also had an awesome military advisor under him, even if it was just Chen Gong, he wouldn't have fallen to such a state!
It was precisely because of the presence of the military advisor that both Cao Cao and the other dukes could rise again!
Liu Bei said to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.
"Second brother, third brother, I've found our weakness. We lack a strategist, a strategist who can truly control the overall situation!”
……
Meanwhile, on the other side, as Lu Bu led his army towards Langya County, they had been running for a day and night!
Finally, they managed to reach Langya County before Zhang He and Xiahou Dun caught up!
Looking at the towering city walls of Langya County, Chen Gong said to Lu Bu!
"Fengxian, if we defend the city and rely on the city walls of Langya County, we might be able to last until winter!”
"Once that happens, the Yuan and Cao armies will definitely retreat. At that time, it won't be too late to recapture Xiao Pei!”
Hearing Chen Gong's words, Lu Bu's face lit up!
"That's right, that's right. Now that Langya County is still around, there's a chance to turn defeat into victory. At that time, I will definitely make Yuan Xi and that thief Cao pay the price!”
After saying that, Lu Bu shouted at the city wall!
"I am Lu Bu, open the city gates!"
However, when Lu Bu shouted, there was no response from the city walls. This made everyone feel a little puzzled!
"Damn it, can't you see my flag?”
When Lu Bu and his army waited outside the city for a long time without anyone opening the city gates, even a fool would know that something had happened inside the city!
Chen Gong seemed to have thought of something and his expression changed drastically!
"Fengxian, who did you let guard the city?”
Hearing Chen Gong's words, Lu Bu said angrily!
"Chen Deng and Chen Gui. Could they be drunk? Why haven't they moved for so long?”
Chen Gong was furious when he saw how Lu Bu was still in a daze!
"Aiya, Fengxian, ah Fengxian, I told you long ago that Chen Deng and Chen Gui were spies. They must have been bribed by Cao Cao!”
When Lu Bu heard Chen Gong's words, a bolt of lightning struck his mind. He was so angry that he almost vomited blood!
As if to confirm Chen Gong's words, two figures appeared on the city walls. They were Chen Deng and Chen Gui!
Chen Gui laughed out loud!
"Wen Hou, you're still too inexperienced. You're far from being able to compete with Prime Minister Cao!”
Faced with Chen Gui's ridicule, Lu Bu was like a madman. He immediately ordered his troops to attack Langya County!
However, the sounds of battle gradually came from afar. It was obvious that Yuan Cao and his pursuers had arrived!
Seeing this, Chen Gong immediately turned pale with fright and tried to persuade Lu Bu!
"Fengxian, let's go. Our path of return is cut off now. We can only retreat to Xiapi and make plans later!”
Hearing Chen Gong's words, Lu Bu was like a lion that had exploded with rage!
"Retreat? Diao Chan is still in the city and you want me to retreat? Chen Gongtai, if you dare to say retreat again, do you believe that I will kill you first?”
When Lu Bu said this, although Chen Gong didn't die, his heart was truly dead!
From the time he led Lu Bu to attack Yanzhou in Luoyang to the time he seized Xuzhou, which time had he not done his best?
But today, the lord he followed was still a fool!
He actually wanted to kill me for a woman?
At this moment, Chen Gong suddenly remembered that it was because of Diao Chan that Lu Bu had betrayed him and killed Dong Zhuo!
Now that he understood, he began to laugh maniacally, as if mocking himself for being blind!
However, no matter how brave Lu Bu was, his defeated army would not be able to take down Langya County in a short period of time!
On the contrary, Zhang He and Xiahou Dun's pursuers had already arrived. If Lu Bu did not leave now, he would die!
Thus, Gao Shun, Song Xian, Hou Cheng, and the other generals began to persuade him!
In addition, a rain of arrows had already fallen from the city walls, and a large number of Lu Bu's soldiers had been swallowed up by the rain of arrows!
In the end, Lu Bu had no choice but to go to Xiapi for the sake of his own life!
