"boom!"

Lu Bu's wine glass hit the table hard.

"What a big-eared thief, I have a benevolent heart and want to give you a way to survive, but you don't know how to praise me!"

The wishful thinking was shattered, and Lu Bu was a little angry.

Chen Gong made a mistake in his calculation, and suddenly felt ashamed. He frowned and said:

"Although Liu Bei is mediocre in intelligence, he is by no means stupid. It is impossible not to see that returning to the Marquis of Jiangwen is the only way out."

"Furthermore, even if he did not surrender, he should have stayed west of Haixi, so why did he go west?"

Chen Gong saw the doubt and immediately called for the map.

The soldiers on the left and right hurriedly brought the map.

Chen Gong stood with his hands behind his hands, stared at it for a moment, and suddenly his eyes moved.

"Liu Bei wants to go west to Pei State, bypass Xuzhou, and then go north to join Cao Cao!"

Chen Gong slapped the map with his palm and concluded with determination on his face.

Lu Bu suddenly realized it and said angrily:

"The big-eared thief would rather go around in such a big circle to seek refuge with that thief Cao than surrender to his own lord. It is really hateful!"

"Send the order, I will use all my troops to pursue the big-eared thief!"

As soon as these words came out,

Zhang Liao, who had been silent for a long time, finally couldn't help but speak.

"Marquis Wen calmed down"

"Since Liu Bei had escaped from Xuzhou, he was no longer a threat to Marquis Wen. Why did Marquis Wen have to drive him out and kill him?"

"The general thought that Marquis Wen might as well turn a blind eye or close one eye and allow him to escape."

The words just fell.

Chen Gong waved his hand and said decisively:

"If Liu Bei surrenders to Cao Cao, Cao Cao will take advantage of Liu Bei's reputation in Xuzhou and send troops to attack Xuzhou."

"Even if Liu Bei cannot be used by Marquis Wen, he must not be allowed to become a hidden danger. He must be intercepted and killed!"

Intercept and kill!

These two words, full of murderous intent, sent a chill down Zhang Liao's back.

"At least Liu Bei took in Marquis Wen, and he was kind to Marquis Wen."

"Now that Marquis Wen has captured Xuzhou, if he still insists on killing Liu Bei, Liao is afraid that the world will say that Marquis Wen is ungrateful."

Zhang Liao advised again.

The word"ungrateful" touched Lu Bu's back and made him change color.

"Zhang Liao, what do you mean by this? Are you mocking me? Zhang

Liao was shocked and wanted to deny it.

But Lu Bu didn't give him a chance to speak, and waved his hand and said:

"I know that you and Guan Yu are from the same hometown. You care about the friendship between the same hometown and want to save Guan Yu's life."

"But don’t forget, you are my subordinate first"

"How can you abandon public affairs for personal reasons and miss the important events of this prince!"

Zhang Liao was scolded until he was speechless and had to shut his mouth silently.

Lu Bu snorted coldly, picked up Fang Tian's painted halberd, and jumped up.

With the halberd in hand, he was burning with domineering murderous intent.

"Big-eared thief, you don’t know how to praise me, so don’t blame me for being ruthless."

"Send the order, I will personally lead the army to intercept and kill the big-eared thief!"

So Lu Bu stayed in Chen Palace, Gao Shun and other generals guarded Xia Pi, and led five thousand cavalry to roll southward.

Three days later, east of Daze Township.

Five thousand Lu troops on foot and cavalry were chasing the rear troops commanded by Guan Yu, all the way to the west.

Daze Township is full of mud. Once Liu Bei passes through the mud, he will be unable to catch up.

"Send the order, we must chase to Daze Township before sunset, and we must not let Liu Bei into the mud!"

Lu Bu Fang Tian pointed his halberd and shouted loudly.

Zhang Liao, however, had a gloomy look on his face and reminded:

"Marquis Wen, we were chasing too fast, and half of the troops behind us didn't have time to catch up."

"Why don't we stop for a moment and wait for the troops behind to join us before continuing the pursuit?"

The words just fell.

Cao Bao said proudly:

"The big-eared thieves were defeated with only 3,000 remnant troops, and with Wen Hou's 300 Bingzhou wolf cavalry, plus the elite Danyang soldiers under my command, they could be defeated with ease!"

"What if we stop and wait for the follow-up troops and miss the opportunity to catch up with the big-eared thief?"

Zhang Liao was speechless.

Lu Bu was aroused and arrogant, and coldly snorted:

"What the father-in-law said makes sense. The big-eared thieves are only a few thousand defeated soldiers, so there is no need to be afraid!"

"Zhang Wenyuan, don’t worry about your mother-in-law, just pursue her!"

At this moment, Lu Bu ignored Zhang Liao's reminder and mobilized his troops to continue the pursuit.

Unknowingly, the terrain in front gradually narrowed, and dense forests gradually appeared on the hills on both sides.

On a mound.

Liu Bei looked northward with an anxious look on his brows.

Mi Zhu Mi Fang, Sun Qian Jian Yong and other civil servants behind him also looked uneasy.

Only Deng Mu was leaning under the tree at the moment, resting his cheek on his hand and taking a nap.

Deng Ai, who was standing by the side, looked slightly embarrassed.

He had to cough softly, trying to remind Deng Mu that your leisurely look might be a little uncomfortable. But

Deng Mu didn't realize it and even snored slightly.

"Lu Bu's army was about to catch up. Everyone was so worried and anxious, how could he still sleep?"

"Deng Ziyu's mental concentration is really extraordinary..."

In the carriage not far away,

Mi Zhen lifted the curtain and quietly looked at Deng Mu from a distance, Yingying murmured to herself

"Brother, do you think this Deng Ziyu's plan will work? Can Lu Bu really fall into our ambush?"

Zhang Fei finally couldn't sit still anymore and whispered in Liu Bei's ear.

Deng Mu was sure that Lü Bu would pursue with a light army, so he proposed a plan to Liu Bei. Guan Yu led an army of 1,000 troops behind him and deliberately showed weakness to lure Lü Bu to pursue.

Liu Bei then He led two thousand main troops and set up an ambush east of Daze Township.

Just waiting for Lu Bu to enter the urn, the ambush spread out and killed the three surnamed slaves by surprise.

"This..."

Liu Bei obviously didn't have the confidence to give Zhang Fei a definite answer, and looked back behind him.

He saw the Jingzhou strange man sleeping soundly at the moment.

Suddenly, dust and mist rolled in on the east road.

Two groups of troops, one behind the other, were coming towards here.

The front army was from the rear of Guan Yu's palace, and the pursuers behind were under the banner of Lu Army.

Lu Bu was chasing him!

There was a surprise on the hill.

Including Liu Bei. Inside.

The anxiety and doubts on everyone’s faces disappeared in an instant.

"Lu Bu really fell into the trap!"

"Deng Ziyu's plan worked!"

Liu Bei was overjoyed. He looked back at Deng Mu, who was sleeping soundly, and couldn't help but nodded secretly.
