The battle of the Lu clan was almost clear when Ma Chao captured Lu Qiling.

Originally, Zhang Liao and Zhang Xiu attacked the Lu clan and had reached a stalemate. And with the arrival of Ma Chao's reinforcements, Ma Jiajun's morale is even more like a rainbow. Especially when Ma Chao used Lu Qiling's life to coerce Zang Ba into giving an order to surrender, Zang Ba watched more and more Ma Jiajun surging in the west of the city, and finally had no choice but to pay for it.

When Gao Shun, Li Yan, and Wei Yan took the trapping camp and the Ma family infantry to carry the siege equipment to the Lu clan. As far as they looked, they only saw the figure of Ma Jiajun cleaning up the battlefield.

"It seems that Yuan Shu and Lu Bu's lives are not very easy." Ma Chaogao was lying in the small city of Lu, and after listening to Gao Shun, Li Yan, and Wei Yan talk about the resettlement of the victims in these days, he praised the three generals a few words. Then, he put his mind on the battle situation again, and said leisurely: "And at present, it seems that our life is not very comfortable."

Originally, according to Ma Chao's plan, he wanted to lead the victims to cut into Nanyang County at the most appropriate time, and when Yuan Shu and Cao Cao were in a hurry, he stabbed Yuan Shu in the ass, even if he couldn't get the whole territory of Yuzhou, then at least he could get the whole territory of Runan County and part of Yingchuan. As a result, after having enough land to support the victims, he was able to strangle Cao Cao and stretch his claws to the west.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu is such a strange thing, and it is not enough to deal with Cao Cao with peace of mind. turned out to be like a in his brain, and asked Lu Bu to come west to recruit Liu Biao. And Liu Biao was also lucky, catching up with his own work to help the victims, and threw the burden of Lu Bu to himself.

For Lu Bu, Ma Chao did not have any pressure at all. After all, Lu Bu has grown a lot. But when he sent out his army, he made a fatal mistake, that is, he thought that Yuan Shu would be as important as Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo.

Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo are just martial artists, and most of them deal with Lu Bu with the mind of defense. And Yuan Shu is different, after Yuan Shu is the fourth and fifth dukes, and after the famous family, martial artists like Lu Bu are just like minions in Yuan Shu's eyes. And if Lu Bu dared to have the slightest disobedience, Yuan Shu would definitely spare no effort to save his reputation and prestige.

In Yuan Shu's heart, Lu Bu was not a powerful general at all. In his heart, he only has himself with the glorious aura of the fourth world and the fifth prince. And all he did was, first of all, to maintain the glittering hat on his head.

Lu Bu marched without authorization at this time, although he obtained Nanyang Wancheng and almost controlled Nanyang County. But Ma Chao expected that Yuan Shu would not only not praise Lu Bu for this, but would reprimand Lu Bu for Lu Bu's unauthorized march.

That's about the things of the world. One wrong step, one wrong step. Lu Bu was just a wolf struggling in this world, he broke free from the shackles on his body and released the beastly nature in his body. But his vision has not yet seen through the fog of the world.

But it is precisely because he did not see through this crucial point that Ma Chao was like a fish in his throat at this time, and he was extremely uncomfortable: the battle situation has been stalemate until now, Ma Chao has only appeased less than 30,000 victims in the area of Hangu Pass and Lu County, even if he has captured Lu now, it can resettle another 50,000 or 60,000 disaster victims at most. It is too different from my original plan.

The only way to solve the problem is to drive straight in, complete the attack, and completely occupy the entire territory of Nanyang, so that Ma Jiajun can completely get rid of the shackles of the victims, so that he can go into battle lightly, and tear off a piece of flesh from Yuan Shu's body at the right time.

But the problem is precisely Lu Bu, Ma Chao can concentrate all the resources in his hands, and easily play Lu Bu to death. But he needs time, and on Cao Cao's side, the last thing left for Ma Chao is time.

On July 6, Yuan Shu learned that Liu Xiang had been defeated by Cao Cao, and when he had failed to order Lü Bu to return to Fengqiu, he set out from Runan to rescue him. Yuan Shu was the commander of the guard, led 100,000 troops, known as "500,000 tigers", converged with the Fengqiu garrison, and marched towards Kuangting.

On the 10th of July, Yuan Shu's main force crossed the four rivers and arrived at Kuangting as slowly as the uncle. The reason why Yuan Shu dared to be the same as his uncle was because he expected that the raiding cavalry occupying Kuangting was only a small force of the Cao army, and he did not dare to touch a stone in front of his main force. As a result, Yuan Shu made progress along the way and spread the reputation of Wangmen.

But on July 12, everything turned out to be very different from Yuan Shu's expectations. When Yuan Shu waited for Cao Ren's main army to join Cao Cao, the two armies faced each other, and the battle was started according to the routine. Yuan Shu never expected that the vanguard troops stationed in Kuangting were Cao Cao's own commanders, and at this time, Cao Cao's courage was greater than him, and he made an action that Yuan Shu did not believe.

At noon on July 12, Cao Cao and most of Yuan Shu's troops crossed the Beiji River, and before they could set up their positions, they led the cavalry to launch another surprise attack. This timing is well mastered, it is equivalent to suddenly catching a traitor while the enemy is still wearing pants, and the consequences of waiting for Yuan Shu can only be caught off guard. Cao Cao ordered Xiahou Yuan's rapid assault, beheaded 3,000 Yuan Shu's army, and captured Yuan Shu's countless baggage, Yuan Shu had no choice but to retreat to Fengqiu and besiege Cao's army.

On July 15, Cao Cao used a suspicious plan in Fengqiu, falsely reporting that Cao Ren's Yanzhou army had arrived, and attacked Fengqiu City with all his might. On Yuan Shu's side, because of the previous defeat, the army's heart was shaken. Later, it was obtained that Ma Chao sent Lei Bo's head to Yuan Shu's camp, which made Yuan Shujun very anxious, and rumors spread.

On July 17, Cao Cao personally beat drums to help the battle, and Cao's army stormed Fengqiu City. Dian Wei and Xu Chu will be the first to enter the city and cut down the banner of the Yuan family. And Yuan Shu saw that Cao Jun was not afraid of death, and he didn't know if Cao Cao really converged the main force, let alone how many Cao troops there were, and the camp was already in chaos, and there were endless fleeing and rebellious soldiers. Yuan Shu was frightened, as if he had booked a return ticket, and crossed the Nanji River, Bianshui, and Jushui in turn, and returned to Xiangyi.

On July 21, Cao's army made a fierce advance, like shit on the buttocks, and pursued Yuan Shu to Xiangyi. was so frightened that Yuan Shu didn't drink a cup of tea to suppress the shock that he had recruited a mad dog, and when Xiangyi was still sitting on a hot ass, he retreated to the nearby Taishou City like a lost dog. At the same time, the exemption card was also hung high, and the morale was low to the freezing point.

Yuan Shu fled for his life all the way, more than two hundred miles, and less than a third of the troops were left in the rout. The pursuing Cao army finally joined the main army of Yanzhou led by Cao Ren, and for a while, Yuan Cao's numerical advantage fell. Cao Jun coerced Dashoucheng and put on a posture of a decisive battle that would not stop fighting. The signs of the Great Breaking Yuan Technique seem to be only within three or four days.

At this time, Ma Chao struggled with all his strength, commanding his subordinates and military generals with back pain, before he took over all the defense of the Lu clan and reluctantly resettled 60,000 victims. Compared with Ma Chao and Cao Jun, there is really a world of difference.

As a result, Ma Chao stood under the cloudless sky, looked at the faint purple mountain shadow deep in the blue distance, and sighed leisurely: Disaster victims, disaster victims, in order to help you, I, Ma Chao, have really done my best Although those who win the hearts of the people win the world, but at this time, it is really not the time to govern one side and favor one place.

"My lord! Lord! Just when Ma Chao was anxious and helpless, Ma Chao suddenly heard Chen Haojie shouting: "Good news! ”

"Huh?" Ma Chao turned around and saw that it was Chen Haojie who sent the message, and his face couldn't help but darken: What good news can you bring me about this 'catastrophe'?
