It was night, the sky was gray, because Cao's offensive in recent days was not as good as before, so the Xuzhou army's defense in the city gradually relaxed.
But Liu Bei didn't know what happened. He suddenly lost sleep that night and was in a state of restlessness.
Liu Bei walked out of the post house with a pair of swords in his hand, and the stars were all over his body.
"Lord Xuande." When Liu Bei heard the voice, he looked back and saw that it was Zhao Yun, who was very imposing.
"Zilong, why don't you sleep so late?" Liu Bei said with a smile.
Zhao Yun replied with a smile: "isn't Xuande Gong so late that he hasn't slept yet?"
Liu Bei said with a smile: "I don't know what's wrong. I don't want to sleep today. Since Zilong doesn't want to sleep, let's go to the city
After that, Zhao Yun and Liu Bei walked from the city to the top of the city. Looking out from afar, Liu Bei could not help sighing when he saw the barracks of Cao's army outside the city.
"Cao mengde is really extraordinary. I think he was a meritorious official who broke the Yellow turban in those days. Now he has a state and a million soldiers and civilians under his command."
In the future, he will be able to persuade Qian Yuan De to do something. Besides, Cao's army has been unable to attack for a long time, and now his morale is low. He must be retiring soon. "
Liu Bei nodded his head and turned his words: "by the way, Zilong, tell me something about Bo Yao. How is he doing recently?"
When he mentioned Gongsun Zan, Zhao Yun's face flashed between his eyebrows: "since general Baima was defeated by Yuan Shao at Jieqiao, Bai Mayi has almost lost everything. General Yan Gang also died on the spot. General Baima is very frustrated. However, general Gongsun Yue, who is stationed in Beiping, has already led the reinforcements, and general Baima has gathered together in the dragon to fight a decisive battle with Yuan's army! "
Liu Bei frowned and said, "well, I knew that. Bei shouldn't have borrowed troops from Bo'er, but he asked Zilong to help him with 500 soldiers."
After receiving Tao Qian's letter for help, Liu Bei was worried that there would not be enough troops. Therefore, he thought of his old classmate Gong sun Zan, who was preparing to fight again with Yuan Shao. However, he was righteous enough to lend Liu Bei 500 soldiers.
Zhao Yunxin recently voted, and Gongsun Zan was more willing to believe in Tian Kai, gongsunyue, gongsunfan and other old subordinates, so he sent Zhao Yun out.
"No matter what, general Baima's military power is huge, and it is expected that there will be no shortage of Yun's 500 men and horses. Moreover, Yun feels deeply responsible for following Xuande to save Xuzhou."
Liu Bei's big ears suddenly moved with a happy smile.
"Zilong, do you hear anything?" Liu Bei's appearance is different from that of ordinary people, and his arms are very long. Therefore, other people use long weapons such as broadsword and spear in battle, while he uses double edged sword. Liu Bei's ears are very big, so his hearing is very sharp.
"Water." Zhao yundao.
"Water?"
All of a sudden, Liu Bei's pupil instantly enlarged.
Water!
Boundless water! It was as if Gonggong was angry and knocked down buzhoushan. Suddenly, the Milky way above the sky suddenly fell out of a big hole, trying to submerge the whole world and turn it into a vast ocean.
"No! I'm afraid that someone in the Cao army suggested that the Yi River and the Si River should be dammed to submerge the Pi River. " Zhao Yun has a keen mind and is quick to react.
"The enemy's plan of water attack is just afraid that xiapi city can't resist it. Lord Xuande will come with me as soon as possible, wake up Tao Shijun and others, and gather the officers and men to break through the encirclement!"
Liu Bei is no nonsense: "good, the sooner the better."
The overwhelming water poured down from the mountains and seas, like the body of an ancient giant beast, pounded on the wall of xiapi. The normally strong wall seemed to be papered in front of the boundless flood, and several sections of the city wall collapsed at the scene.
The flood suddenly rushed in from the collapsed city wall and poured into the city of xiapi. The people in the city were suddenly collapsed by the flood, and countless people in the city were soaked in the water and cried loudly.
"Mother, I want a mother!"
"Where are you, son and father?"
"Help, I can't swim, help, Gulu, Gulu..."
Xuzhou belongs to the North geographically. Although there are Si River, Yi River and other rivers passing through, they are not as vertical and horizontal as the Yangtze River, so most people in Xuzhou can't water.
Today's flood can be described as a disaster, tens of thousands of residents in xiapi city do not know how much to drown.
"Catch Tao Qian alive!"
"If you catch Tao Qian and Liu Bei, you will have a lot of rewards!"
The flood overflowed the city of xiapi, and the soldiers of Qingzhou rushed into the city in a boat that had been prepared for a long time.
Cao Cao personally supervised the battle with the sword of relying on heaven: "we must catch old master Tao Qian alive today!"
Cao's generals were all sent out. Only the two men, Xi Zhicai and Cheng Yu, stayed in the camp with thousands of soldiers and horses.
"Go
Although xiapi city was flooded by water, Liu Bei and Zhao Yun came out to look for him at night. Therefore, when they saw Cao Jun flooding xiapi City, they responded in a timely manner. There were thousands of Danyang soldiers and the original army in the city, and they woke up Tao Qian and others."The envoy of Tao, Zhao Taishou of Donghai County in the north is still insisting on it, and there are Chen's father and son in Guangling County in the East. Zang Ba of Taishan county is not willing to surrender to Cao Cao. We can still fight!" Liu Bei said excitedly.
"Xuande..."
Tao Qian's voice was weak. Liu Bei looked up and was shocked.
Tao Qian's face was bloodless, and there was an arrow on his chest, which dyed the wound near the arrow red.
"Mr. Tao, are you shot?" Liu Bei stepped forward and frowned.
"Xuande... I'm no longer good at archery. This arrow is very accurate. When I tried to pacify the rebellion in Liangzhou, my archery was quite extraordinary. I didn't expect that one arrow would kill me today." Tao Qian gave a bitter smile.
Zhang Fei said in a hurry: "what are you waiting for? Pull out this arrow and cure the injury for the emperor?"
Guan Yu shook his head: "no, Tao Shijun is old and weak, and his Qi and blood are in decline. If you pull out this arrow by force, I'm afraid that Tao Youjun..."
speaking of this, all the people present are sad. Tao Qian is the governor of Xuzhou. Even if he goes down the mountain, he is also in charge of Xuzhou. If Tao Qian dies, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Xuande..." Tao Qian stretched out his hand tremblingly and tried his best from his arms. Then he took out a piece of silk and unfolded it slowly. It was a seal letter.
"This is the seal of Xuzhou stabbing history. The two old children are mediocre and incompetent. They can't be used much. However, if Cao Cao gets millions of people in Xuzhou, he is afraid that his life will be ruined. Please ask Xuande to take over Xuzhou governor."
Liu Bei shook his head and said, "I came here for the sake of benevolence and righteousness. How can you steal a high position?"
"Xuande..." Tao Qian raised the seal letter, and suddenly his head deviated.
