Chapter 1348: Bait

Liu Bei fled in haste with seven thousand defeated troops.

The 7,000 defeated troops had a relatively complete organizational formation, mainly belonging to the 10,000 rear army led by Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun ordered the rear army to form a formation at the beginning of the battle, and was not dispersed by the chaotic army.

Later, when Zhao Yun saw Ma Chao leading the cavalry in pursuit, he left behind 3,000 pikemen to meet Ma Chao after the formation was broken.

Although Ma Chao had few soldiers, Liu Bei didn't dare to stop. Who knows if Yuan Jun's brigade will catch up?

Only escape!

Only by fleeing to Deyang, crossing the Han River, and joining Zhuge Liang and Zhang Fei can we feel at ease.

Surrounded by the defeated army, Liu Bei's "hidden dragon" special skill increased the escape speed, and involuntarily slowed down. After all, the defeated army could not keep up with his speed.

And Liu Bei is absolutely reluctant to part with these 7,000 soldiers, otherwise, even if he is alone, even if he escapes quickly, without the army, the risk factor will only increase exponentially.

Two hours later, Liu Beijun escaped for seventy or eighty miles along the south bank of the Han River.

There was a sound of horseshoes behind, and smoke and dust fluttered.

Liu Bei was startled at first, thinking that Yuan Jun's brigade had come after him, but he took a closer look, and saw that the army was carrying the banner of "Changshan Zhao Yun", and the leader in white robes and silver armor was Zhao Yun.

Liu Bei was overjoyed, stepped forward to greet him, and said, "It's a great thing that Zilong has returned safely."

Zhao Yun got off his horse and bowed his hands in salute: "Report to my lord, Ma Chao has already been killed, and Yuan Jun's brigade has no signs of chasing him; the mission has been completed, so I led the army to rush over."

Liu Bei said: "I have heard for a long time that Ma Chao is a brave general of Xiliang. How did Zilong repel him? Was he injured?"

Zhao Yun shook his head and said: "Ma Chao is indeed superb in martial arts, and his marksmanship is fierce and domineering. In the first 20 rounds, he almost suppressed me. But after 20 rounds, I gradually figured out his way, and he was able to draw; , I gained the upper hand. Ma Chao's cavalry was also broken by my spear array. He may have retreated seeing that the pursuit was hopeless."

Liu Bei looked up to the sky and sighed: "If it weren't for Zilong, I would have become a prisoner of Yuan Jun today!"

Zhao Yun quickly said: "My lord, Hong Fu, even without me, he would still be alive."

In fact, Zhao Yun and Liu Bei didn't know that if Liu Bei hadn't escaped first, but had stayed to face Ma Chao's cavalry, Zhao Yun's "savior alone" state would have existed forever, and he wouldn't have fought so hard.

Liu Bei and Zhao Yun led their troops to Deyang County.

Liu Bei said: "From Deyang Ferry, across the Hanshui River, Fushui Pass is 300 miles ahead."

Zhao Yun also heaved a sigh of relief: "Yes, as long as he sees Army Master Zhuge, he will definitely have a solution."

Liu Bei will lead the crowd to cross the river immediately.

Suddenly Zhao Yun said: "My lord, wait a minute."

"What?"

Zhao Yundao: "My lord, Yuan Xi seems to know our army's whereabouts very well. Then my lord, crossing the river in a roundabout way, and crossing the river from the nearest Deyang Ferry, may also be in Yuan Xi's calculations. In case he ambushes our army on the other side, what to do?"

The possibility that Zhao Yun said is true.

Although Bai Xiaowen has to deal with Wei Yan and Huang Zhong, it doesn't take much time; and most importantly, Bai Xiaowen can go straight on the Lianyun plank road, without having to detour for hundreds of miles like Liu Bei's defeated army, of course he has enough time,

He rushed to the north bank of the Han River and intercepted Liu Bei.

Liu Bei took out the geography book of Xichuan, which was regarded as a treasure, and said, "If you don't cross the river from Deyang County, you can only go east and walk 150 miles to cross the river in Jiangyang County. But in this way, the distance Even more distant. There are less than 10,000 soldiers, and they are extremely exhausted, so how can I bear to make them suffer more?"

Nearby, Liu Bei's soldiers and troops bowed down one after another: "I am willing to follow the lord, and I will not give up!"

Liu Bei's eyes were slightly red, but luckily he didn't cry this time.

If Bai Xiaowen is here, he will definitely receive a reminder that Liu Bei's skill "Fujun" is activated, and his morale value is +10.

In the first half of his life, Liu Bei was beaten up and down by Lu Bu, Cao Cao and other princes, running around, and still maintaining a team, it is really not easy.

Immediately, Liu Bei abandoned the Deyang Ferry, continued eastward for 150 miles, and crossed the river at Jiangyang.

After crossing the Han River, Liu Bei felt at ease when he didn't see Yuan's ambush along the way.

Entering Jiangyang County, Jiangyang County is not far ahead.

Suddenly, scouts from the front came to report, and a military horse came oncoming.

Liu Bei was panicking, and the follow-up scouts had brought more definite news: it turned out that the soldiers and horses, under the banner of the three generals Zhang Fei, were the reinforcements.

Liu Bei was overjoyed and hurried over to join Zhang Fei.

When brothers meet, they are extremely jealous—of course, the jealousy here is not the kind of jealousy that enemies meet.

Zhang Fei knelt down, with red eyes, and said, "I heard that the life and death of the second brother is uncertain, and the elder brother is trapped in Luocheng, so I am very anxious. Fortunately, the elder brother is safe, thank God!"

Liu Bei helped Zhang Fei up, his eyes were also wet, and he said, "God's will is endless, I am Liu Bei! I think the second brother will be fine, and the three of us will definitely see each other again."

After each parted, Liu Bei asked, "Third brother, where is Zhuge's military advisor? Brother Yu is in great chaos now, and the military advisor is needed to give advice."

Zhang Fei said: "The military division and his wife set up some gossip formations at the Fushui Pass, and they also used Taoism to pray for the thick fog to block the reinforcements from Hanzhong. The younger brother was anxious and argued with the military division for a few words, and he asked me to bring the soldiers and horses." Let's go ahead and save Big Brother."

Liu Bei's face changed color, and he said, "Third brother, you are so confused! The military master is not good at martial arts, and his wife is not a warrior on the battlefield; without soldiers and horses to protect him, if Yuan Jun from Hanzhong enters the pass, wouldn't they be in danger?"

Zhang Fei bowed his head and said in a low voice, "The military adviser agreed to let me bring the troops here."

Liu Bei sighed and was speechless.

Zhao Yun said: "Military Master Zhuge should not put himself in a dangerous place, my lord, don't worry too much."

Liu Bei then asked Zhang Fei, "When the military adviser asked you to come, did you give any orders?"

Zhang Fei said: "The military adviser said that Xichuan is no longer available. After I see my eldest brother, I will escort him to return to Jingzhou by land from Berkshire."

"This..." Liu Bei hesitated for a moment. Now Chengdu has Zhang Song, Luocheng, and Luocheng has been captured; he is really reluctant to give up Xichuan! I don't know if there will be such a good opportunity in the future.

Zhao Yun also persuaded: "My lord, you should still obey the arrangement of the military adviser, keep a useful body, and plan for the future."

Liu Bei sighed, nodded and said, "That's all."

Suddenly, there was loud drumming around, and it was as dense as raindrops; smoke and dust rose from the surrounding fields.

When Liu Bei looked hurriedly, he saw Han Meng in the northeast and Zhang Yun in the northwest, each leading an army to kill; the banner of Duke Yan in the southwest was raised, obviously Yuan Xi personally led the army to kill; the only southeast direction without a flag was also the sound of horseshoes It was dense, and obviously soldiers and horses rushed out.
