Seeing Lu Bu rushing towards Liu Bei with murderous intent, Guan Yu felt anxious.
With a feint, Xu Chu was thrown away with a wave of horse's head, but he blocked Lu Bu's path.
"Little Lu Bu, accept your fate!" Guan Yu slashed at Lu Bu's red rabbit horse.
Lu Bu had no choice but to turn his horse's head to block with his painted halberd: "Guan Yu! How long will you continue to help the tyrants? If you abandon the dark side and join the bright side now, I won't care about the past grudges!"
"It's no use talking too much, just watch the sword!" Guan Yu said and struck again with the sword, fighting Lu Bu to the same point.
Xu Chu had also caught up and shouted: "Don't leave, red-faced man! We haven't decided the winner yet!"
Lu Bu shouted: "Leave him to me, and you go and take down the big-eared thief with Zilong!"
Although Xu Chu was unwilling to do so, he still agreed and went after Liu Bei.
Zhao Yun had already charged forward with a group of cavalry.
They did not rush directly towards Liu Bei and his men, but ran in an arc, keeping a distance of about fifty steps from the enemy, and only fired rounds with bows and arrows.
Liu Bei was also smart. He only ran to the place where there were many people, lowered his body as close to the horse's neck as possible, and actually dodged several rounds of arrows!
The soldiers beside him suffered disaster, with some falling to the ground after being hit by arrows.
The scene became increasingly chaotic, and the coach just wanted to run for his life. How could the soldiers still be interested in fighting?
After running for a while, Liu Bei felt that the shouting and wailing around him were getting farther and farther, thinking that he had thrown away his pursuers.
Just when he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he looked sideways and saw Zhao Yun not far away with his bow and arrow aimed at him!
Liu Bei was shocked and lamented: "Zilong!"
Before he finished speaking, two lines of tears had already flowed down: "Zilong! Have you forgotten that we held a candlelight conversation in Youzhou at night, and how good the conversation was?
Is it really going to be a life-and-death battle today? You shoot the arrow! I have no regrets if I die in your hands, brother..."
"I...why did you collude with Yuan Shu and use this despicable method to plot against Marquis Wen?" Zhao Yun asked.
"Alas! What are you talking about? It's just everyone's own master! How can there be such clear right and wrong in this world? Zilong, don't you understand me yet..."
Zhao Yun sighed, raised the bow and arrow slightly by three inches, and shot an arrow.
The arrow flew over Liu Bei's head, causing Liu Bei to shrink his neck in fright.
"My archery skills are not good and I couldn't hit you. Please leave!" Zhao Yun said coldly.
"Thank you Zilong for not killing me. I will repay you in the future! Farewell! Drive~" Liu Bei cupped his fists, clamped the horse's belly and ran towards the distance.
Withdrew back, Lu Bu was already leading people to gather the surrendering troops.
Of the 3,000 people Liu Bei brought this time, excluding the 700 to 800 people who were shot and fled, the remaining 2,000 people surrendered obediently.
Zhao Yun turned over and dismounted, cupped his hands towards Lu Bu and said, "My lord, Zhao Yun is incompetent and let Liu Bei run away..."
"Well, just run, Zilong, thank you for your hard work." Lu Bu didn't seem to take it to heart at all.
Zhao Yun pondered for a moment and said: "Actually... I could have shot him, but I let him go intentionally. Please punish me, Lord."
Lu Bu glanced at Zhao Yun expressionlessly, then patted his shoulder and laughed:
"Don't hinder me! If you don't let him go, you will no longer be my son!"
"Ah?" Zhao Yun thought he heard wrongly.
As if to comfort Zhao Yun, Lu Bu added: "I also let Guan Yu run away."
"Uh..." Zhao Yunxin said what kind of kung fu did Liu Bei have? It is reasonable for Guan Yu to be able to run away with his abilities.
Lu Bu said with a smile: "Good people don't live long, and disasters last for thousands of years. Just think that Liu Bei is not exhausted and let him go."
However, this time he had deceived all the troops he had obtained and lost all of them. It seems that his vitality was severely damaged, and he couldn't stir up any trouble for a while. "
"Lord..." Zhao Yun didn't know what to say for a moment.
Lu Bu then asked, "How do you feel about this new tactic?"
Zhao Yun recovered his thoughts and said: "The enemy army was defeated too quickly, and they were completely unable to exert the power of this tactic..."
Lu Bu smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, there will be another opportunity soon. There are more than 30,000 people on the other side. Are you confident?"
"Not to mention 30,000, even 300,000 Zilong wants to touch it!" Zhao Yun said seriously.
"Okay, hurry up and help gather the surrendered troops, then bring the baggage and return to the new city!"
Lu Bu looked at the carts of grain and grass being transported out and smiled knowingly: This Liu Bei is really a good man. He always comes to deliver the baggage to him in time!
----
Xiapi City.
After seeing off Liu Bei and Guan Yu, Zhang Fei always felt a little unhappy - he couldn't participate in such a thing as intercepting and killing Lu Bu!
However, he also knew the importance of guarding Xiapi City, so he did not dare to be careless. As expected, he did not eat wine for several days.
Today, I patrolled around the city gates again and found nothing out of the ordinary. I was about to go back to the government office for dinner when I saw an ox cart parked on the street with several wine jars on it.
A young man shouted there: "Excellent liquor! Ten coins a jar!"
Zhang Fei became interested as soon as he heard this. He urged his horse to the front of the car and asked, "Young man! What kind of wine are you selling? It costs ten ounces a jar?"
The man said: "Of course it is fine wine. Only a real man deserves to drink strong wine!"
Zhang Fei snorted coldly: "What a loud tone!"
The man also sneered and said: "There are even bigger ones! I am a good drinker, no matter how good a drinker I am, I can't eat three bowls!"
As he spoke, he opened a wine jar, and a strong aroma of wine suddenly wafted out.
Zhang Fei hasn't drank for three days!
At this moment, I couldn't help but swallow hard when I smelled such a fragrance.
When I got off my horse and put my head into the jar, I felt the aroma was even more intense. It was indeed the best wine I had ever tasted!
The man said again: "It was in vain that I transported a cart of good wine to Xiapi City, but no one knows how to drink, let alone anyone who can drink it!"
Zhang Fei glared with his round eyes and cursed: "Fart! I am the best drinker in Xiapi City!"
"Oh?" The man looked Zhang Fei up and down again and said with a smile, "Can you eat these three bowls of wine from me?"
Zhang Fei said: "Not to mention three bowls, I can eat even thirty bowls! It's just... I have something busy recently, so I can't eat it!"
"Tch~" The man's mouth was about to go up to the sky, with an expression on his face that said, "I believe you are bragging."
Zhang Fei was deeply attracted by the good wine in the jar.
This wine not only has a rich aroma, but is also clear and translucent, completely different from the turbid wines I have drunk!
How can you miss this rare and rare wine? Even if you don’t drink it now, it’s better to wait for Liu Bei and Guan Yu to come back in triumph to celebrate their victory!
Because he said: "You man, I will buy you three jars of wine!"
But the man said: "Just now you only said that you can drink. If you can really eat three bowls of wine from me, how about I give you a jar?"
Zhang Fei was overjoyed after hearing this: "Is it true? You must keep your word!"
