The cavalry not only destroyed the formation of the Qingzhou Army, but also destroyed the fighting spirit of the Qingzhou Army.

After the ten rounds, Guan Yu was in a bad situation. In the previous rounds, Guan Yu was still able to confront Lu Bu vividly, but the agility of Chituma and Lu Bu's strength posed an increasing threat to Guan Yu.

Taking the time to look at the battlefield, Guan Yu was shocked. He was originally in the Qingzhou Army, and Xuzhou cavalry could be seen everywhere around him. The Qingzhou Army lost its formation under the attack of the cavalry.

Seeing that Guan Yu still dared to be distracted during the confrontation, Lu Bu snorted coldly, and stabbed with the halberd. The long knife in Guan Yu's hand had just come back for help, but seeing the halberd shake, the halberd that was originally stabbed was slashed towards Guan Yu's chest. .

The crescent halberd exuded a piercing cold light, and Guan Yu had no doubt that if this blow landed on his chest, he would surely die.

Guan Yu is worthy of being a seasoned general, he leaned his back, and the crescent halberd almost brushed against the tip of Guan Yu's nose.

Lu Bu secretly thought it was a pity that after fighting Guan Yu, he could feel Guan Yu's progress in martial arts. Such a growing general is extremely terrifying. If Guan Yu can also beheaded on the battlefield, Liu Bei wants to achieve greater development. It is impossible.

Now that he has broken with Liu Bei, Lu Bu has no intention of easing up with Liu Bei. If there is a chance to eradicate Liu Bei, Lu Bu will not relent.

After occupying Xuzhou, Lu Bu remained on guard against all the princes, and these people would become his enemies at any time.

Only by making the enemy more fearful can his position in Xuzhou be more stable.

Chapter 94 Guan Yu was injured, Qingzhou Army was defeated

Guan Yu was horrified. The moment Lu Bu shot, he felt a huge threat.

Falsely slashing his sword, Guan Yu rode his horse back. The Qingzhou Army's situation is not good. If they get too entangled with Lu Bu, they will fall into greater danger.

"Where is Guan Yu going!" Lu Bu rushed to Guan Yu.

How fast the red rabbit horse is, even though Guan Yu sits down, there are not many good horses. Compared with the red rabbit horse, the speed is much worse.

In a blink of an eye, Lu Bu caught up with Guan Yu, and with his halberd raised horizontally, he only had to stab forward to chop Guan Yu off his horse.

At this moment, Guan Yu's upside-down long knife flashed a flash of light, and came towards Lu Bu.

Lu Bu's complexion changed slightly, and with a low drink, the halberd swung down, blocking Guan Yu's sure-to-get blow.

If it was an ordinary general, he would definitely not have too much defense against Guan Yu's move, and it is very possible that he will be killed by Guan Yu.

An arrow came towards Lu Bu's face, and the one who shot it was Liu Bei.

Drawing a halberd across the sky, blocking the incoming arrows, Guan Yu had already appeared more than thirty steps away.

Lu Bu's painted halberd pierced the ground fiercely, and the dragon's saliva bow appeared in Lu Bu's hands. With a loud shout, the bow was like a full moon, and the arrows flew towards Guan Yu with the sound of piercing through the sky.

From when Lu Bu replaced the halberd with the dragon's saliva bow, to when the arrow was shot, it was only a blink of an eye.

"Yunchang be careful!" Liu Bei shouted.

Guan Yu's heart suddenly became alarmed, and he turned to the right.

The arrow pierced through the armor and hit Guan Yu's left arm.

Guan Yu snorted and rode back at a faster speed.

Lu Bu shook his head slightly. If it wasn't for Liu Bei's reminder and Guan Yu's timely response, the arrow could have shot directly through Guan Yu's back.

Guan Yu was injured and returned, the Xuzhou cavalry was completely suppressed, and the Qingzhou army became more and more chaotic.

No one dared to fight Lu Bu, but seeing Lu Bu slaughtering in the Qingzhou army, setting off a bloody storm, many soldiers of the Qingzhou army dropped their weapons and surrendered when they saw Lu Bu coming.

The breath of failure spread in the Qingzhou Army.

"Xiangguo, it is difficult for our army to stop Lu Bu, so leave the battlefield immediately." Liu Bei said eagerly.

Kong Rong didn't see the scene on the battlefield, but he couldn't accept it in his heart. The army with high hopes failed in this confrontation, and the defeat was so complete.

"Retreat." Kong Rong helplessly gave the order to retreat.

The Qingzhou army retreated, and the Xuzhou army would not let go of the opportunity to beat the dog in the water. This is a frontal confrontation between the two armies. The Qingzhou army's elite are all dispatched. They don't have to worry that the Qingzhou army will have other means on the battlefield.

After the order to retreat was issued, the soldiers of the Qingzhou Army headed towards the camp without hesitation. Their retreat was without any rules at all.

After nearly two hours, the battle gradually came to an end, but the corpses of soldiers could be seen everywhere on the battlefield, and more of them were soldiers of the Qingzhou Army.

The cavalry patrolled the battlefield. They were not only responsible for cleaning up the safety of the soldiers on the battlefield, but also had the task of finding the enemy's remnants and defeated generals. All of these would be their credit on the battlefield.

People in the Qingzhou military camp were panic-stricken. In this battle, the Qingzhou army failed too thoroughly. Thinking of the scenes of the Xuzhou cavalry charging in the army, the soldiers still showed fear.

After seeing the situation of the soldiers in the army, Kong Rong sighed. After this battle, the Qingzhou Army has no strength to fight against the Xuzhou Army, and even after returning to Qingzhou, it will still face danger.

How rampant the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans are, they not only attacked Qingzhou counties and counties, but also Jizhou, Yanzhou, and Xuzhou, all of which are where the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans are active.

Different from the Yellow Turbans in other states and counties, the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou fought bravely, and the elite among them dared to compete with the elite Han army.

"Our army has lost this battle." Kong Rong sighed.

Liu Bei comforted him and said, "Xiangguo, Lu Bu is a traitor, and he will not last long. After returning to Qingzhou, we will regroup and fight in the future, and we will definitely defeat Lu Bu."

Liu Bei's confidence seemed to have infected Kong Rong, and he nodded and said, "Xuande's words are very true."

"Prime Minister, I'm afraid that after Lu Bu wins, he won't give up so easily." Liu Bei worried.

Kong Rong questioned, "What does Xuande mean by that?"

Liu Bei said: "Although the situation in Xuzhou is urgent, Lu Bu has Yuan Shu's support, so he will not let our army leave easily."

"Could it be that Lu Bu still dares to kill them all?" Kong Rong snorted coldly.

"Prime Minister, what Bei said was not to kill them all, but Lu Bu took the opportunity to ask for supplies." Liu Bei said: "In the past, Yanzhou Mu sent a large army to stop Lu Bu's army. After the defeat, he compensated a large amount of supplies and weapons."

Kong Rong said: "I am a courtier of the Han Dynasty, and I will not be threatened by Lu Bu like this."

"Think twice, Prime Minister, Lu Bu is brave and has elite soldiers under his command. If he restrains the Prime Minister's army in the counties, and the Qingzhou Army loses the restraint, what will happen if they attack the city of Qingzhou?" Liu Bei said.

When Kong Rong heard this, his complexion was not very good. He came here out of righteousness to conquer Lu Bu. Now that he is defeated, he wants to bow down to a traitor like Lu Bu and even pay for supplies. Such a thing is really hard for him to accept, but Thinking of the current situation in Qingzhou, he had to admit that Liu Bei's words had some truth.

The Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou were rampant and attacked counties and counties. The Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou suffered a big loss in the hands of Gongsun Zan before, but it didn't mean that the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou didn't have the ability to attack the city.

"Qingzhou is barren, and Lu Bu also knows it. If the Prime Minister promises to rectify the name of Lu Bu's Xuzhou Mu, then Lu Bu will definitely not be embarrassed." Liu Bei said.

"Don't even think about it." Kong Rong directly rejected Liu Bei's proposal.

Although Liu Bei wanted to calm down and ease the relationship with Lu Bu, Kong Rong had such arrogance that he would not give in.

"Don't say too much about this matter. I will lead the army back and will not provide any supplies to Na Lu Bu. It is wishful thinking for the rebels to get supplies." Kong Rong was angry.

Liu Bei said: "If that's the case, order the lieutenant officers to prepare secretly and leave quietly."

The morale of the Qingzhou Army was low, while the Xuzhou Army was elated. In this battle, more than [-] Qingzhou Army soldiers were captured alive, and more than [-] Qingzhou Army soldiers were killed. The Qingzhou Army has lost the ability to threaten Xuzhou.

Just as Liu Bei expected, after the victory, Lu Bu did not intend to let Liu Bei and Kong Rong go easily. It is also a better choice to keep the two of them on the battlefield completely. When Kong Rong threatened Xuzhou, Lu Bu would kill him without hesitation.

If a great Confucian is killed, it will definitely cause a shock in the country. Lu Bu also knows Kong Rong's reputation. He is in charge of Xuzhou and needs the help of the gentry. The influence of these great Confucians in the country cannot be underestimated.

Chapter 95 Zang Ba persuades Zhang Fei

Especially the letter sent by Jia Xu made Lu Bu realize that Kong Rong could not be allowed to die on the battlefield of Xuzhou.

As for Liu Bei, it is natural to teach him a painful lesson. The situation in Qingzhou is chaotic, and what has it to do with Lu Bu? It is unforgivable to let the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou ignore them, but to attack Xuzhou.

Hundreds of cavalry were sent out for Lu Bu. They were to monitor the Qingzhou Army and prevent the Qingzhou Army from leaving easily.

If Kong Rong can compensate for the supplies, Lu Bu can still accept it.

Zhang Fei was in a bad mood, especially when he heard the defeat of the Qingzhou Army, he was furious. He failed to attack Xuzhou, but suffered heavy losses. Even he became a prisoner of the Xuzhou Army.

Liu Bei managed to gain a foothold in the plains, and at the time when he was flexing his muscles, losing to the Xuzhou Army would be a heavy blow to Liu Bei.

However, Zhang Fei had to admit that the Xuzhou Army's combat effectiveness was strong, especially after Lu Bu was in the Xuzhou Army, earth-shaking changes have taken place.

"General Zhang, how are you in the army?" Zang Ba walked into the tent with a smile, and winked at the two soldiers in the tent.

Zhang Fei snorted coldly: "I have no worries about food and drink in the army, what's wrong with it, it's just that you are too petty, and there is no drink in the food."

Zang Ba smiled and said: "General Zhang wants to drink, isn't it a very simple matter, as long as General Zhang is willing to do things for Marquis Wen, not to mention drinks, he can even command an army in the future."

"Don't work in vain in front of this general. I will be a courtier of the Han Dynasty and will not stoop to become a thief." Zhang Fei said.

Zang Ba sighed: "General Zhang still has food in the army, but the soldiers under Liu Bei's command are not treated so well. The Qingzhou Army was defeated. With Wenhou's method, the Qingzhou Army can't get away from the battlefield. "

Zhang Fei's eyes tightened. Although he was among the enemy troops, Zhang Fei was most worried about Liu Bei's safety. He could die, but Liu Bei was a clan member of the Han Dynasty and had to live.

"Stop talking nonsense in front of this general," Zhang Fei said.

"As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to live in. With General Zhang's bravery, is he willing to die like this?" Zang Ba said: "Wen Hou is scolded by the princes, but the princes can't see the side of Wen Hou who is sympathetic to the soldiers. Xuzhou Army Why are you able to win consecutive victories on the battlefield, all because of Marquis Wen."

"General Zhang is a military commander, and if he follows Marquis Wen, he will definitely do more. Now Liu Bei is only the Prime Minister of Pingyuan, and the Yellow Turban is rampant in Qingzhou. It is difficult to defend Pingyuan."

Zhang Fei said angrily: "Rebel, dare to talk nonsense in front of this general, and leave quickly."

Zang Ba shook his head and said: "The reason why Marquis Wen didn't kill General Zhang was because he cherished General Zhang's talent. If it wasn't for this general's persuasion, General Zhang's head would have been sent to Liu Bei. Does it mean that General Zhang still thinks that Marquis Wen is not good enough?" Dare to kill you?"

"I, old Zhang, have never been afraid." Zhang Fei said nothing.

Zang Ba got up and left the tent, and it was him who persuaded Lu Bu not to kill Zhang Fei. If he persuaded Zhang Fei to surrender, it would be a great contribution. Zhang Fei is a fierce general, and such talents cannot be used by Lu Bu. Zang Ba felt that It's a pity.

"My lord, the last general failed to persuade Zhang Fei." Zang Ba walked into the army with a slightly helpless tone.

Lu Bu said: "It's better to kill him as soon as possible to avoid future troubles. Besides, Zhang Fei is in the army, but he is just wasting our army's money and food. What's the use of it?"

"My lord, after all, Zhang Fei is a fierce general in the world, wouldn't it be a pity to kill him like this," Zang Ba said.

Lu Bu laughed loudly and said, "Xuan Gao, there are so many powerful generals in the world. Since they cannot be used by this general, troubles will inevitably arise if they stay. This general does not want to have unstable people in the Japanese army."

"The general understands." Zang overbearingly said.

"Besides, even if other princes have strong generals under their tents, so what, if they oppose this general, I will kill them one by one." Lu Bu said solemnly.

From Lu Bu's words, Zang Ba felt absolute confidence, and Lu Bu had the strength to say these words.

When Yanzhou and Qingzhou sent troops, Xuzhou was in such an emergency. It was at this time that Lu Bu led the army to fight in the east and west, and defeated the Qingzhou army and the Yanzhou army. Now the Qingzhou army has become the last of its strength. Do more.

"My lord, according to the general's guess, Liu Bei will definitely not sit back and watch Zhang Fei become a prisoner of our army. What if he exchanges food and supplies?" Zang Ba asked.

"Is it possible that the general lacks food and supplies? The Yanzhou Army and the Qingzhou Army think that the army's pressure will cause a shortage of supplies in Xuzhou, but they don't know that Xuzhou's food and grass are enough for the army to fight for two years." Lu Bu said proudly.

Zang Ba's heart moved, he clasped his fists and said: "My lord is wise."

After taking control of Xuzhou, Zang Ba had also heard about some of Lu Bu's actions. The immortal jade that is famous in nearby counties comes from Pengcheng. If the Mi family had not cooperated with the state pastoral government, how could they be so arrogant? On the surface, the Mi family has reaped a lot of benefits, and it must be the State Shepherd's Mansion that has benefited the most.

If Zang Ba knew the profit of Xianyu, I don't know how he would feel.

"Zhang Fei must be killed, but not now. If Liu Bei dares to lead troops against me in the future, he will sacrifice Zhang Fei's head to the flag, and Liu Bei and Kong Rong invaded Xuzhou. How could they be killed so easily? Let them go," Lu Bu said.

Zang Ba nodded. After the war is won, the winning side will definitely get more benefits from the war. The actions of Liu Bei and Kong Rong have made Xuzhou unstable. If Lu Bu hadn't been tough, Xuzhou might have fallen into a crisis situation.

It is also reasonable for Liu Bei and Kong Rong to give some practical benefits.

In the evening, patrolling cavalry captured a literati who claimed to be Liu Bei's envoy.

"Tao Hong, the envoy of the lower plains, met Marquis Wen." Tao Hong clasped his hands.

Lu Bu said, "Xuan Gao just said that Liu Bei would send an envoy here, and he didn't want Liu Bei's envoy to come so quickly."

"Tell me directly the purpose of your visit." Lu Bu said flatly.

The lieutenant general smiled, this is the treatment of the winner.

Tao Hong said: "Prince Pingyuan and Marquis Wen had a misunderstanding before, that's why the armies of the two sides were fighting, and now there are many Yellow Turbans raging in Qingzhou, and Marquis Wen is a courtier of the Han Dynasty just like Ping Yuan, so the most important thing is to exterminate the Yellow Turban rebels."

"Hmph, in your eyes, aren't we just traitors? When the army invaded, we were aggressive and boasted of righteousness. Now that we have failed, if we want the Marquis to stop here, there will be such a simple thing in the world. " Lu Bu snorted coldly.

The generals in the tent also glared at Tao Hong. The name of rebellion is not good. They are the generals of the Xuzhou army. They have become rebels in the mouths of the Qingzhou army and the Yanzhou army. No one will do such a thing. feel good.

Chapter 96 Liu Bei Compromise

"Marquis Wen, the plain is barren and far less prosperous than Xuzhou. Prime Minister Pingyuan is willing to present Marquis Wen with a thousand grains of grain and thousands of weapons, as a token of his heart, and hope that Marquis Wen can appease his anger." Tao Hong lowered his posture.

Zang Ba was dissatisfied and said: "What can a thousand shi of rice be enough for? The counties have an army of [-] shi, and they consume nearly [-] shi of money and food every month. The Qingzhou army has been fighting our army for two months, and a mere thousand shi of rice and grain , can also speak out.”

Tao Hong's face was reddish, she cupped her hands and said, "Ping Yuan's supplies are limited, I hope Marquis Wen will forgive me, Prime Minister Ping Yuan doesn't want to have a bad relationship with Marquis Wen."
