Chapter 430 Liu Bei's Quick Attack

Liu Bei solemnly said: "No, Bei will set off now."

Liu Ye nodded, and said unambiguously: "Well, that's it, I won't keep Xuande anymore. The war is important. After the situation in Yuzhou eases, Brother Xuande will go to the pilgrimage to see His Majesty."

Liu Bei nodded, turned around and said, "Yun Chang, Yi De, Zi Zhong, you all go out with me to rectify the troops and prepare to pull out the camp."

"Zilong." Liu Bei held Zhao Yun's hand reluctantly: "Zilong, Bei is very reluctant to part with you, but Bogui needs help more, so you should go back with five hundred cavalry."

Zhao Yun sighed: "It's a joy in life to be able to fight under Duke Xuande's command, but it's a pity."

Liu Bei smiled and patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Zilong, you can come back when the Hebei incident happens." Liu Bei only said that the Hebei incident happened but did not say that Gongsun Zan had won. In fact, he also saw that Gongsun Zan was in decline. Among them, Zhao Yun's hundreds of people can't change anything if they go back, unless Liu Ye is willing to send troops to intervene, but Liu Ye is short of food and grass, so it is naturally impossible.

"In that case, Yunxian resigns."

Zhao Yun bowed to Liu Bei and Liu Ye respectively, and then slowly withdrew.

When Liu Ye saw Zhao Yun, he immediately stopped him: "What is the name of the little general?"

Hearing Liu Ye's voice, Zhao Yun stopped his figure, turned around and said, "Under Changshan, Zhao Yun is Sima under the command of General White Horse, and he has seen Liu Cheqi."

It turned out to be Zhao Yun!

"It turns out that it was Zhao Zilong who fought against Hebei's famous general Wen Chou for sixty rounds in Jieqiao. He really is a young hero." Liu Ye praised, and at the same time, he was thinking about how to keep Zhao Yun.

"General Baima's army is very powerful. Even if Jieqiao is temporarily defeated by Yuan Shao, it will not be a problem to defend Youzhou in the future. Zilong doesn't have to rush back. How about staying in the court?" Liu Ye asked.

Zhao Yun shook his head slightly: "Thank you Liu Cheqi for your kindness, but General Baima is currently employing people, Yun is a member of Gongsun's army, how can he forget the word of righteous obedience of Baima because of his greed for wealth?"

"Well, since that's the case, I won't stay any longer. The cavalry under Zilong's command can go to Wenhe to collect food and grass for three days, and then go north." Liu Ye said.

"In that case, thank you Yun."

After finishing speaking, Liu Ye looked at Liu Bei: "Brother Xuande, I allocated five thousand shi for grain and grass for you, but after Brother Xuande arrives in Yuzhou, you need to solve the problems of recruiting troops, horses, food, grass and supplies by yourself."

Liu Bei nodded: "Don't worry, Yuqing. Bei also knows that the imperial court is struggling to donate food and grass. It is not bad to be able to allocate five thousand shi for food and grass."

One stone of grain and grass is twenty-seven catties, which is enough for ordinary soldiers to eat for a month, and five thousand stones of grain and grass are enough for Liu Bei's army and horses to eat for more than a month, and Liu Bei has to work hard for the rest.

On the same day, Zhao Yun led hundreds of cavalry from Hedong, detoured to Bingzhou and returned to Youzhou, preparing to join Gongsun Zan.

After Liu Bei led his army to rest for a while, he immediately went south from Yanzhou and entered Yingchuan County.

There are a total of five counties in Yuzhou, of which Runan County is the seat of the state and covers the largest area, while the remaining four counties are Pei State, Liang State, Chen State, and Yingchuan County.

Yingchuan County is located in the most western part of Yuzhou, and there are many aristocratic families with a strong cultural atmosphere. For example, the Xun family, Zhong Yao and Guo Jia's families are all in Yingchuan County, so Yuan Shu's military front has not yet spread here.

However, Liu Bei led more than 4,000 troops to station in Yingchuan County, and at the same time issued an edict of the emperor to the counties of Yuzhou, declaring that he was the real governor of Yuzhou, and Yuan Shu was rebellious.

Pei State is the farthest from Yingchuan County, and has been controlled by Yuan Shu. The local soldiers in Liang State and Chen State are all subordinates of the former governor of Yuzhou, Kong Ni, and tried their best to resist Yuan Shu's invasion. Hearing that Liu Bei was appointed by the imperial court, he hurriedly Ask Liu Bei for help.

Liu Bei didn't dare to be careless when he heard about it, and ordered Guan Yu, who had always been mature and prudent, to sit in Yingchuan County, and he himself took Zhang Fei and 3,000 Danyang soldiers to Chen Guo.

Yuan Shu dispatched Lei Bo, a powerful general under his command, to lead an army of 8,000 troops to attack Chen State. Since Kong Ni, the governor of Yuzhou, was captured and killed, many cities in Chen State fell in anticipation of Lei Bo's arrival. Only Chen County and Changping The garrison is still resisting, but it is an isolated city, and the situation is getting more and more critical.

And Lei Bo didn't pay attention to the remaining two cities, but divided his troops to attack Chen County and Changping respectively, each with more than 4,000 troops. The warlord attacked Chen County.

After Liu Bei heard about it, he immediately decided to cross Changping and lead 3,000 Danyang soldiers to surprise Chen County.

On September 15th, Lei Bo was overseeing the siege of the city. Suddenly, the sound of war drums and horns sounded from the northwest. Lei Bo looked in the direction of the sound and was shocked.

All I saw was an army under the banner of Liu Zi suddenly rushed over like the wind. The three thousand Danyang soldiers were brave and good at fighting.

Liu Bei and Cao Bao led the Danyang army, while Zhang Fei roared angrily and rushed into the formation with a Zhangba snake spear in his hand. Although Lei Bo had a large number of troops, after Yuan Shu's army came to Yuzhou, most of them were recruited from Yuzhou. Their combat effectiveness was not strong, and they were easily killed by Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei is a fierce general who can defeat ten thousand people. If he formed an elite army, he would be able to stop Zhang Fei. However, although Yuan Shu's army has a large number of troops, they are all miscellaneous troops, so naturally they cannot resist.

Zhang Fei rushed into Yuan Shu's army in one breath, furious as a hero, he suddenly raised the weapon in his hand, dropped the spear with his hand, and killed Lei Bo with the spear on the spot.

Lei Bo was killed, the morale of Yuan Shu's army collapsed on the spot, while Liu Bei commanded 3,000 Danyang soldiers to attack head-on, and more than 4,000 Yuan Shu's troops were immediately defeated. Except for more than a thousand who fled, most of the rest were captured alive.

When Chen County was released from the siege, the officials in the city were overjoyed to see the arrival of the "Inspector of Yuzhou", and hurriedly sent Liu Bei into the city.

Liu Bei recruited more than a thousand soldiers from the Chenxian prefecture and Yuan Shu's army into the army, and released all the rest. This move aroused great discussion in Yuzhou, and many people expressed their gratitude.

The Yuan Shu army who besieged Changping heard that the main general Lei Bo had been killed, and retreated towards Runan in panic, while the wily Liu Bei was already prepared and led his troops to set up an ambush 30 miles north of Ruyang.

Yuan Shu's army, who had retreated from Changping, withdrew to the ambush site. Liu Bei suddenly beat the drums and attacked. Thousands of Danyang soldiers shouted and killed. Yuan Shu's army was defeated immediately and was captured by Liu Bei. freed.

Then Liu Bei issued a notice in the territory of Chen State,

Due to Lei Bo's defeat, the counties and counties in the Chen State surrendered, and Liu Bei successfully recovered many cities in the Chen State.
