Call of the Deer

Chapter 269 Wu Qi Withdrew, Lu Bu Killed

As the sun rises, a ray of purple light slowly rises, slanting from the east, shining on Zhaolie City, so warm...

Finally, the Beiming Army, which had been silent for a whole night, dispatched again. The sound of the horn sounded from the rear of the Beiming Army, and the sound of the drums of the "Dong Dong" was deafening, ringing in people's hearts...

"Bowen, the Qianzhou side sent thousands of miles in an urgent manner. It is said that Li Shimin's coalition forces have been repulsed. What is the problem…"

Wu Qi rode his horse and stood outside Zhaolie City, looked up at the half-crippled Zhaolie City in the distance, and suddenly spoke.

And the person standing next to Wu Qi is military advisor Liu Bowen Liu Ji.

When Liu Ji heard this, a bright light flashed in his eyes, then he squinted his eyes, took the letter to check, and then fell into deep thought, and Wu Qi also turned his head to look at Liu Ji, and then focused his eyes on Zhaolie City again...

"Berwen, it seems that the danger of Qianzhou has been resolved. Should we retreat? Or should we go all out to take Zhaolie City?"

"Hehe, is the general under test? That's fine, let me tell you my humble opinion..."

"Berwin is serious. I just want to hear your opinion from Mr. Sir. Please..."

"Hehe, that's okay, I foolishly thought that our army should retreat immediately, stationed in Dangcheng, and then think about advancing. At the same time, General Xu Da will be stationed in Biancheng, and General Chang Yuchun will go north, stationed in Qingyangdu, and look at Linzhou..."

"Oh, what should I say? It seems that Zhaolie City is about to be captured, why do we have to withdraw our troops quickly at this time? If we do this, wouldn't the previous efforts be in vain, wouldn't the soldiers sacrifice in vain..."

When Wu Qi heard this, he didn't pick it up slightly, he seemed rather strange, and looked at Liu Ji with some surprise.

"General, the letter said that Lu Bu led his wolf cavalry to go south first, and then Liu Bei even joined the coalition forces at the critical moment of the siege, withdrew quickly and went south non-stop. Why is Liu Bei so anxious?"

"Why? Could it be that the big-eared thief thinks that Lu Bu's wolf cavalry is not strong enough to fight against our army?"

Chang Yuchun, who was standing beside him, was a little strange when he heard the words, and said in a low voice.

"Hehe, Boren, do you think the bravery of Lu Bu's wolf cavalry is not enough to fight against our army? Don't forget that our army is basically infantry, while Lu Bu has nearly [-] cavalry under his command..."

"Bowen, do you mean that Liu Bei is worried about Lu Bu, so he will go south non-stop?"

"Hehe, that's right. I'm afraid that Liu Bei found out that Lu Bu had a different heart, so he would rush to his heart, disregarded the covenant, and risked being settled by Li Shimin, and resolutely withdrew his troops to the south. From this, it can be seen that two tigers cannot be accommodated in one mountain. This Lu Bu and Liu Bei must not coexist, why don't our army just sit on the sidelines and watch the fire from the other side?"

"Beautiful, Bowen's insight into human nature, to the point, really makes Wu extremely admired!"

"Chang Yuchun listened to the order and ordered you to be the vanguard of the North Road, lead an army of [-], stationed at Qingyangdu, and strictly monitor Liu Jun's movements..."

"Xu Da listened to the order and ordered you to lead an army of [-] to guard the fortress of Biancheng and serve as a backup for our army..."

Wu Qi was originally a peerless commander. After reading Fei Ge's biography, he saw the key point, which coincided with Liu Ji's thoughts. After listening to Liu Ji's words, he issued an order without hesitation.

……

"Report to the Prime Minister, Wu Qi's army has begun to retreat, and has already retreated to the northern party city one after another..."

"What? You said Wu Qi's army has retreated?"

"Hahaha, hold it, finally hold the king city, it seems that the lord has returned to help, Xiao Zhi, who do you think the lord will send to rescue the king city?"

Days of siege made Du Yu and others physically and mentally exhausted, restless, tense and trembling, as if facing an abyss, as if walking on thin ice. When they heard that the enemy was retreating, they were overjoyed and wept with joy...

"Hehe, with the strength of our army in Qianzhou, unless the lord came to rescue him personally, or one of General Lu Bu and General Wang Yanzhang came to rescue him, Wu Qi probably wouldn't have retreated so quickly..."

Fazheng tapped the teacup on the table lightly, muttering to himself.

"Yes, Xiaozhi's analysis is very good. No matter which general sent troops to rescue, Liuzhou will be saved. I don't need to become a criminal minister and lose the master's stronghold. Hahaha, fortunately..."

……

"My lord, Wu Qi's army that attacked Zhaolie City has retreated to the north and stationed in Dangcheng, and Liu Bei's army is about to reach Shuocheng in the south of Linzhou, and it will surely reach Zhaolie City within seven days..."

Wu Yong shook the feather fan lightly, with a sly look in his eyes, and said to Lu Bu.

"Seven days? The big-eared thief has caught up with our army so quickly. It seems that he already knows that I have a different intention, hehe, but so what if I know, I, Lu Feng, have made up my mind about this Liuzhou. Look at the big-eared thief. How can you stop me, hahaha..."

"The whole army obeys the order, aim at Zhaolie City, advance at full speed, must arrive before dark, those who fall behind, beheaded!"

There was a fiery light in Lu Bu's eyes, and a cold smile gushed out of his body, looking at the scorching sun in the east...

……

Zhaolie City, the residence of the Prime Minister.

"Report to the Prime Minister, General Lu Bu, who personally led [-] cavalry, is already twenty miles outside the west gate..."

"Oh, I see, you go down..."

"Xiaozhi, what do you think? Unexpectedly, the lord sent General Lu Bu to the south to rescue the capital..."

Du Yu fell into silence when he heard the words, and after a while, he opened his mouth quietly.

"It is indeed a little unexpected, but with the bravery and speed of the wolf cavalry under General Lu Bu, only General Lu Bu is the most suitable for rushing south to rescue the capital. This is an indisputable fact. Yuan Kai, you are too nervous..."

Fazheng was taken aback when he heard the words, looked at what Du Yu said on the opposite side, rolled his eyes, and then gave a wry smile.

"Hehe, that's right. After all, Wu Qi's army is eyeing the tiger, and it is possible to capture the king's capital at any time. My lord is in a hurry, and it is understandable to send the wolf cavalry to command Lu Bu;
After all, General Lu Bu is brave in military force, and the wolf cavalry under his command are even more brave and good at fighting. It is no problem that one can stand up to ten. No, when Lu Bu came, Wu Qi ran away with his tail between his legs..."

Du Yu heard the words, took a deep look at Fazheng, laughed at himself, and felt that he was a little nervous...

"Since that's the case, shouldn't we go out of the city to welcome Xia Lu Bu's army into the city? After all, he was the one who led the iron cavalry to scare off the Northern Dark Army and save Zhaolie City from the fire..."

"This...Xiaozhi, it is time to welcome Lu Bu into the city, but I don't have to do it myself, this Lu Bu has always been arrogant, if we go out of the city to welcome him in person, it will only encourage his arrogance;
It would be better to send General Zhang Yi to greet him, firstly, it will not be rude, and secondly, it can avoid being supercilious, so it would be more suitable..."

"Alright, Yuan Kai has considered everything carefully, so let General Zhang Yi do the hard work..."

……

"My lord, Du Yu sent Zhang Ni out of the city to welcome our army into Zhaolie City..."

"Wu Yong, I was thinking about how to enter Zhaolie City in one fell swoop, but I didn't expect someone to give me a pillow when I fell asleep. This Du Yu is very considerate;
Okay, without further ado, I will lead the army into the city and take down Zhaolie City as soon as possible. Hehe, I am curious, what kind of expression will Du Yu have when he knows that I am going to rebel?Hahaha…"

"I'm probably going to spit blood out of anger, hehe..."

"Hematemesis, that's okay, but well, I will definitely spare his life. Who told him to be so sensible and let me go to the city? Am I, Lu Bu, an ungrateful person?"

"The whole army obeys the order and follows me into the city..."

Afterwards, a group of [-] iron cavalry walked towards the city of Zhaolie...

Just when Lu Bu was about to step into Zhaolie City, an untimely voice came from a distance...

"Du Yuankai, don't let Lu Bu's thief into the city, this thief has already betrayed the lord..."

In an instant, a murderous look flashed in Lu Bu's eyes, and he rushed into the city gate with a cry...

"Boys, come with me, kill..."
