The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 1051: I'm Dead!

In the city of Xiapi, the flood surged violently, and countless people were displaced and suffered catastrophe.

The voices of crying for help came one after another, and they could still be heard even after a long distance.

Lv Bu's army was a hundred thousand, watching from the sidelines.

"My lord, the city gate is gone, let's rush!"

The generals under his command had full fighting spirit in their eyes.

Hearing this, Pang Ji was very anxious, and hurriedly persuaded from the side: "Generals, don't be impulsive. The flood is raging now. If you rush down rashly, it will not help at all, and you will even be buried in the belly of the water..."

Lu Bu took this very seriously, and even if he really wanted to attack the city, he had to wait until the flood receded or stabilized.

What's more, most of the soldiers under his command are from the north, and there are countless landlubbers who can't swim.

Anyway, after the flood flooded the city, the morale of the defenders in the city plummeted, and with the loss of food and livestock, Liu Bei was basically at the end of his rope, and he was not in a hurry.

A few days later, the raging flood in the city calmed down. The water level that was originally two people high was receded by most of it, almost down to the calf level, thanks to the concerted efforts of the army and the people to dredge it.

Due to the low terrain of Xiapi City, drainage is difficult, and it will take a long time for the accumulated water in the city to be completely drained.

Naturally, Lu Bu would not give Liu Bei a chance.

In the city, on the streets and in front of houses, there are muddy rivers.

Liu Bei, who is the shepherd of Xuzhou, was wearing a black uniform, and beside him were Chen Dao and other soldiers. They waded in the water, walking with one foot deep and one foot shallow, inspecting the people in the city.

Compared with the self-sufficient living in the past, the people in Xiapi today can be described as miserable. To describe it in one word, it is: miserable.

Almost all the food and livestock were swept away by the flood, leaving only a little remnant. Many people have not eaten or drank for many days, their faces are yellow and emaciated, and they are homeless.

"Liu Shijun is here! Liu Shijun is here!"

The appearance of Liu Bei caused a commotion.

Many people looked over with anticipation in their eyes, wanting to wait for Liu Bei to give an explanation.

It has to be said that despite the catastrophe, they still have full confidence in this Mr. Liu.

Seeing the suffering of the people, Liu Bei's face was also full of sorrow, and tears came as soon as he said it.

Stretching out his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes, Liu Bei made a big salute, and turned around one by one on the spot, until the people shouted, "I will not let you do it", "I will make you get up quickly, don't let me down" and many other words. , Liu Bei straightened up slowly, his face still full of regret.

"If you make the kings suffer, prepare for it!"

His tone was full of remorse.

Hearing this, many people were moved and turned to Liu Bei: "Your envoy, don't blame yourself too much. Everything is due to Nalu Bu's cruelty and inhumanity, and he treats us like nothing. This time, we will go forward together with you. Retire together!"

But there are also a small number of irascible elders who don't like this at all, and just curse at Liu Bei: "Liu Xuande, don't pretend to be hypocritical here, if it weren't for you, how could we have suffered such a catastrophe!"

Seeing someone insulting the lord, the accompanying soldiers made a gesture to capture and behead these mobs.

"Don't do it!"

Seeing this, Liu Bei immediately stopped him loudly, and stretched out his body to stop the soldiers behind him.

Then he took out the sword at his waist and handed it to the irritable man. He said with an apologetic expression: "This strong man, I am very sorry for your anger. If you have any hatred, feel free to kill me. Don't resist!"

"My lord, no!"

The soldiers and the people were in a hurry.

Chen Dao's eyes were even more fixed, staring at the man closely, as long as there was a slight movement, he would kill him first even if he disobeyed the lord's order.

In any case, the safety of the lord always comes first.

"Han boy, don't mess around. Liu Shijun loves the people like a son. You can't blame Liu Shijun for the death of your mother-in-law and baby. Even if you want to hate, you should hate Lu Bu who digs the embankment. He is the one who ruined your family!" Someone familiar with the man advised from the side, throwing all the blame on Lu Bu.

"Yes, yes, yes, Liu Shijun is a very good man!" The rest of the people also hurriedly tried to persuade them.

The people, you say a word to me, and they are all saying good things for Liu Bei.The man frowned, his heart became entangled for a moment, he looked at the sharp sword in his hand, then at Liu Bei, who was generously dying with his eyes closed, gritted his teeth, and threw the weapon in his hand resentfully.

Just leave one sentence: Lu Bu and I will never die!
went elsewhere.

After the man left, everyone felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, a woman in ragged clothes timidly pulled off Liu Bei's sleeve robe.

In her arms, holding a child about seven or eight years old, she fell into a deep sleep.

"Liu Shijun, I know that you love the people like a son, and you are a benevolent and righteous king. The death of a bitch is not a pity, but I implore you to send food to save the child..."

The woman's voice was very low, as if she was too hungry.

Liu Bei was quite embarrassed about this.

The flood swept away too much food and livestock, not to mention the common people, even the defenders were reducing their clothing and food every day.

There is not enough food at all, let alone take out the surplus to relieve the innocent suffering people.

Although there is no food available now, Liu Bei still made a promise to the people: "Don't worry, everyone, I have sent people to Xuzhou City to order General Cao Bao to send food and grass. I believe it will take three to five days at most. Arrive at Xiapi. As soon as he arrives, we will all have something to eat, so let's wait!"

Hearing these words, the originally depressed people suddenly rekindled the light of hope.

After the tour, before parting, Liu Bei once again encouraged the people: When we drive out the national traitor Lu Bu, we will be able to revive our homeland!
The sound is loud and full.

If you don't even have confidence in yourself, the people will even less have the will to survive.

Back at Xiapi County Mansion, before entering the mansion, the guard guarding the door went straight forward and said: "My lord, General Cao Bao sent someone here. They look like they have suffered a defeat."

Hearing only the first half of the sentence, Liu Bei was still quite happy, thinking that Cao Bao had finally come, but when he heard the second half of the sentence, Liu Bei's heart suddenly 'thumped', and a strong uneasiness surged up.

"Quick, tell him to meet me in the lobby!"

Liu Bei said anxiously.

Not long after I sat down in the lobby, an armored general walked in from outside. The outer armor was seriously damaged, but luckily he was not injured.

Seeing Liu Bei sitting upright, this square-faced general knelt down on the ground, his expression on his face was like that of a dead parent, and he wailed bitterly: "My lord, it's gone! It's all gone!"

"I don't know which bastard leaked our marching route, causing our army to be heavily ambushed by Gao Shun's army on the way here."

"Our army couldn't resist and was defeated, even General Cao Bao...he..."

"What's wrong with him!" Liu Bei's heart tightened, and he stood up abruptly from his seat.

"General Cao, he died under the random guns that fell into the camp." Speaking of this, the general was already in tears.

The soldiers suffered heavy casualties, all the food was robbed, and the general Cao Bao died...

puff!
A lot of bad news came one after another, and in a hurry, Liu Bei spurted out a mouthful of blood, and he looked up to the sky and yelled: "Heaven will kill me!"

After all, he leaned back and passed out on the spot.
