The person dragged out by the soldiers was indeed not Liu Bei, just an ordinary Bu.
After Guan Yu rescued Liu Bei, he gave them the illusion that Liu Bei was always protected behind the shield.
Now it was a chaotic battle again. The scene was in chaos, the sky was dark, and there was a shield blocking their sight. They could not see whether Liu Bei behind the shield was really Liu Bei.
At this time, the shield was broken open and it was found that Liu Bei was not among them. The man who was dragged out wanted to resist, but was quickly killed.
"Not Liu Bei?"
Ma Chao suddenly had a bad premonition. He followed their gaze and saw that it was really not Liu Bei. He looked around again and saw that Liu Bei was not here. He said loudly: "No, we have been fooled. Liu Bei is not here."
"Liu Bei is not here!"
Several of Ma Chao's soldiers then shouted to remind others.
When Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun heard that Liu Bei was not here, they immediately came over to take a look and found that they were indeed fooled.
This Liu Bei is fake, so where is the real Liu Bei?
Maybe on Guan Yu's side.
"You guys stay here, kill the remaining people, and I will lead my troops back to help Zhong Kang!"
Ma Chao said anxiously.
"good!"
Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun both agreed.
They turned around and continued to fight back.
Ma Chao narrowed his eyes and went to kill Guan Yu again.
Liu Bei indeed remained with Guan Yu, and the remaining troops were still pushing three unlit carts. Liu Bei hid in the straw of one of the carts.
Without Ma Chao's help, Xu Chu alone was no match for Guan Yu. The Qinglong Yanyue Sword swung and slashed Xu Chu backwards.
Just when Guan Yu was about to fight out, Ma Chao finally came back.
"Zhongkang, the Liu Bei who left is a fake!"
Ma Chao shouted while fighting in: "The real Liu Bei must still be here."
"not good!"
When Guan Yu heard this, he attacked even faster.
The blade of the blade shone with a sharp cold light in the dark night, and cut Xu Chu back again. Guan Yu did not expect that the fake Liu Bei over there would be exposed so quickly.
He had to protect the real Liu Bei and get out as soon as possible.
It was difficult for Xu Chu to hold up now. There were many stab wounds on his body, but they were not fatal. However, his strength gradually failed to keep up. Seeing Guan Yu's momentum, he felt very strenuous and could not even respond to Ma Chao.
However, when he heard that Liu Bei was lying about escaping, he had no choice but to lead his troops to intercept and kill him.
In order to save Liu Bei, Guan Yu risked his life completely and continued to fight regardless of the situation. The Qinglong Yanyue Sword killed everyone everywhere.
Seeing this, Ma Chao shouted: "Kill in and then surround us!"
Cao Jun launched a siege again.
Guan Yu felt a little confused and could only keep fighting.
No matter what, they have to keep the eldest brother and support him. When the third brother Zhang Fei succeeds, they can turn the situation around and leave smoothly with the eldest brother.
All hope tonight lies in Zhang Fei, and Guan Yu does not expect that with his own strength and such troops, he can break out of Xudu City.
——
Xudu City is divided into two areas.
They are the outer city and the inner city.
The outer city is where ordinary people live, so Guan Yu and others only dare to set fires in the outer city. The scope of the fire must not be large, otherwise it will affect the inner city.
The inner city is the part close to Xudu Palace.
The people living here are all noble officials and civil and military ministers from aristocratic families who followed the emperor to Xudu. They have high status and can only show their status by living close to the emperor.
In addition, there are the Cao family, Xiahou family, Xun family, etc., and their residences are also in the inner city.
Zhang Fei, who has disappeared, sneaked into the inner city when Guan Yu rescued Liu Bei. He has a special task tonight. As long as he can complete this task, Liu Bei can leave Xudu smoothly.
This task is actually not difficult.
But it's important.
It is related to the life and death of the three brothers.
Zhang Fei mentioned the Zhangba Snake Spear. Because the task was important and the responsibility was heavy, he was even a little nervous, and his palms were slightly moist.
There were about a thousand people beside him.
Even he had to sigh that the foundations of those Gongqing families were really profound, and they kept putting out pieces as if they didn't need money.
There were more than 20 officials in the city who had followed the emperor to Xudu. They were persuaded by Dong Cheng to support the emperor and brought out their own tribes to respond to the resistance.
As they responded, they were ready to follow him out of the city.
As long as Zhang Fei completes his task tonight, they can leave Xudu together and follow Liu Bei. Once outside, they can use the edict to gather the princes, recruit troops and fight back to Xudu.
Destroy Cao Cao and support the emperor again.
This is their plan and intention.
"Walk!"
Zhang Fei lowered his voice and said.
They walked towards the inner city, a mansion that was not too luxurious but not very low-key. Zhang Fei's eyes were cold and murderous. He would catch the people here and then meet up with his eldest and second brothers as soon as possible.
Then everything is fine.
Within this mansion.
Chen Zhou hasn't rested yet.
There seemed to be waves of shouts of death coming from outside, making it impossible for him to rest calmly.
Whether the plan comes true or not depends on tonight.
This was Chen Zhou's first time deviating from the historical tactics he already knew. He didn't know whether he could kill Liu Guanzhang, and he couldn't determine whether there were any mistakes in the plan.
To know what happened to Guan Yu, there were mistakes and omissions that allowed Guan Yu to escape.
If we don't succeed tonight, it will be even harder to kill them again in the future.
"Husband, why don't you rest?"
Cao Shan asked softly.
She knew what happened, and she didn't rest either. She stayed with Chen Zhou to wait for the news. However, Liu Ling's status was a bit special and she also knew what happened tonight. She might be very unfriendly to Dong Cheng and other ministers, and even less friendly to the Han royal family. .
Liu Ling didn't know what to do, so he went back to his room early, trying to escape this reality. He hoped that when he got up early tomorrow morning, things would be completely different and the city would still be harmonious.
"I'm going to wait for the results."
Chen Zhou smiled and said: "Tonight's matter is so important. I won't be able to sleep until we get the result. I believe my lord and the others are the same. Wen Ruo and the others must be waiting too."
There are destined to be many sleepless people tonight.
Not only them, but also Dong Cheng and other ministers must be waiting for the results to see who can succeed and who can have the last laugh.
"My husband's plan is perfect."
Cao Shan said softly: "We will definitely succeed tonight. There is no need to wait for this result."
Chen Zhou shook his head and smiled: "Not necessarily. For example, when I was hunting, didn't I also fail? Now there is serious turmoil outside, and people are setting fires everywhere. This is beyond my expectation."
Cao Shan said: "Set a fire is a trivial matter, father and others can handle it, not to mention it is in the outer city, not the inner city."
"Outer city? Inner city?"
After listening to Cao Shan's words, Chen Zhou suddenly thought of something. Looking at the snowflakes under the light outside, he was slightly distracted. He stood up suddenly and his face changed drastically: "They are creating turmoil in the outer city, trying to distract our troops and disrupt us." line of sight, then the inner city can also..."
