"Kill!"

"Ahhh!"

Seeing the critical situation, Xiahou Dun immediately raised the spear in his hand and roared, "Everyone listen to the order and follow me to fight out."

While he was talking, Xiahou Dun had already rushed into the crowd in front of him, his spear thrust out like lightning, and a Cao soldier in front was immediately stabbed to the ground.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

When the generals of Cao's army saw this scene, their morale was immediately boosted. They waved their weapons and charged into the crowd.

These Cao Jun soldiers just wanted to take advantage. Seeing the bravery of Xiahou Dun and others, they immediately retreated in fear.

Cao Mengde and others followed Xiahou Dun and others and rushed forward. When they rushed out of the camp, the Bingzhou cavalry behind them had already caught up with Cao Jun and began to kill.

Although Cao Mengde heard screams coming from behind him, he finally rushed out and dared not look back. He immediately led the group in front of him and ran towards the darkness.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

As Cao Mengde and others escaped, Cao's army was helpless and surrendered on their knees.

"We won't fight anymore, I surrender!"

"Spare your life, I surrender!"

The battle in the camp lasted for an hour, and then calm was restored.

The reason why the battle ended so quickly was because most of Cao's army had no intention of fighting after knowing the truth of the matter. They defected one after another and joined Lu Bu's army. This made the battle end so quickly.



In the large tent of Cao's army, the person sitting in the middle is no longer Cao Mengde, but Wenhou Lu Bu.

The other generals in the tent looked excited and beaming with joy.

Chen Gong said with a smile, "I really didn't expect that someone as strong as Cao Mengde could be defeated so quickly."

Lu Bu nodded, "What are the losses of our army?"

Zhang Liao hurriedly stepped forward and handed over his hand, "Preliminary statistics show that more than 200 people were killed and more than 300 injured."

Having said this, Zhang Liao couldn't help but smile as he thought of the results of this battle.

"But the result of this battle was extraordinary. Countless Cao troops surrendered. Although Cao Mengde escaped, it is said that only a few thousand people escaped together, and the rest all surrendered."

Chen Gong nodded and suddenly sneered, "Anyone who commits injustice will be punished by his own death. Cao Mengde thought he was smart, but he never expected that he would be defeated by this. He deserves it."

Hearing this, Lu Bu sighed, "I have been fighting Cao Mengde for so long, but I have always admired him as a hero, but I never expected that he could do such a thing. It is really shameful, almost the same as Xiao Everyone is the same.”

Cheng Lian suddenly smiled and said, "Marquis Wen, the reason why this went so smoothly, I'm afraid I have to reward two people."

After hearing this, Lu Bu knew who he was talking about and nodded with a smile, "You are right. I have this intention. Let them come here immediately. I will reward them heavily."

This time, Cao Mengde's army was stronger. Although Lu Bu tried several tricks, he was still unable to repel Cao Mengde.

However, because of this matter, it was an unexpected surprise to easily defeat Cao Mengde.

The two most important people in this matter are undoubtedly Zhang Shi and Li Shu.

Soon, Zhang Shi and Li Shu, who looked happy, walked into the tent. When they saw Lu Bu, they hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"I see you, Marquis Wen."

Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "Get up. You have made great achievements this time, and I will reward you well."

At this point, Lu Bu's tone paused, and then he said, "You two have made great achievements in defeating the enemy this time. I will reward you with ten thousand coins. In addition, you two will be appointed as marching commanders to work beside me."

When Li Shu and Li Shu heard Lu Bu's words, they were so shocked that they could hardly believe their ears.

Don't underestimate this official position. Although they are not generals, as long as they have this official position, they can stand at the end of the Chinese army's tent whenever important matters are discussed.

Just a few days ago, the two of them were still small soldiers, and suddenly they became Sima. This was a great joy.

"Thank you, Marquis Wen."

Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "You deserve this. If you perform meritorious service again in the future, I will reward you."

The two thanked them again and stood consciously at the gate, in the last row.

Chen Gong said slowly, "Many soldiers of Cao's army have been recruited and surrendered this time. Marquis Wen, how should we arrange them?"

He asked this question because this matter was indeed difficult.

In the past, when prisoners were captured, strong soldiers would be selected to add to the army.

These added that the prisoners in the camp, due to the large number of Lu Bu's army, can be easily suppressed even if something happens, so naturally there won't be too many doubts.

But this time it was different. The number of Cao's troops who surrendered was too great, which already exceeded Lu Bugui's number. If they were added to the army as before, it would inevitably lead to too many Cao's troops and too few Lu Bu's troops.

If it is really arranged like this, if something happens, the consequences will be disastrous.

And the most important thing is that we have to fight Cao Mengde next. Is it safe to lead too many Cao soldiers?

This is what Chen Gong is really worried about.

Of course Lu Bu also knew this problem. No matter a soldier who had just joined the army, they might not be loyal enough at the beginning. Only as time goes by and they have a sense of belonging, can they truly become soldiers in the army.

Looking at the original plan, the captured prisoners would be asked to go back to digging coal in case anything happened.

But now they are fighting Cao Mengde, and it is time to replenish their combat strength. What's more, many of these Cao soldiers surrendered voluntarily and were not captured prisoners.

Thinking of this, Lu Bu frowned and asked slowly, "Gongtai, do you have any way to arrange it?"

Chen Gong thought for a while and said slowly, "We can select some people from the soldiers who have taken the initiative to join us and add them to various armies to increase the strength of our army.

On the other hand, it should be possible to select some people to guard the prisoners and bring them back to Xiaopei, and then select some people to distribute them to various cities. "

After hearing this, Lu Bu thought carefully in his heart and nodded slowly, "That's fine, let's do it this way."

Cheng Lian suddenly said, "Marquis Wen, there are still some things in Cao's army. What should I do with them?"

Hearing this, Lu Bu frowned and said, "Bury them all."

After saying these words, he was still a little worried and waved his hand vigorously, "No need to bury them, just pile them together and set them on fire. Be sure to watch them burn to ashes, and there must be no more residue."

Cheng Lian hurriedly handed over his hands and said, "I will obey your orders."

Lu Bu stood up and said, "You guys go and stabilize the camp first to prepare for Cao Mengde's return."
