Liu Qi, the hegemon of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 751

Night falls.

But the city wall of the Western Region Mansion, and the three miles outside the city of the Western Region Mansion, were brightly lit, and did not become dark because of the nightfall.

but.

In the coalition camp outside the city, there were figures flickering, and there were many noisy voices, which seemed a bit lively.

Although Lu Bu led the soldiers and horses to rush out suddenly, which affected the battle plan and did not capture the Western Region Mansion today, but that was only temporary.

According to the current situation in the Western Regions.

Even if Lu Jun still harassed him outside, he would be able to directly take down the Western Region Mansion when he attacked next time.

Today's defeat was only due to being caught off guard by Lu Jun, and it was getting late, so he could only temporarily stop attacking the Western Region Mansion, take a rest, and make plans again.

Wait until tomorrow morning, then such a situation will not happen.

Besides, they already had plans to deal with Lu Jun who was on the periphery. They only needed to send an army to watch out for Lu Jun's actions, and that was enough.

After that, he was able to seize the Western Region Mansion with all his strength.

There are so many of them, they just need to be prepared, and there is nothing to worry about with just a little Lu Jun.

If they come to attack again like today, no matter how powerful Lu Jun is, they will have enough confidence to keep all Lu Jun.

In the end, he took over the Western Regions Mansion.

Then, they will be able to boost their military prestige and display their prestige at the same time.

So, they didn't have anything to be nervous about, it should be said that they didn't feel that way.

by comparison.

Above the city wall, it was much, much duller.

The flags fluttering in the wind, which were inserted everywhere in the city wall, made a sound of 'woo-woo'; and the flames fluttering in the wind kept flickering.

No one made a sound.

Except for a few soldiers who stood here and there, looking at the movement of the coalition army camp three miles outside the city, the rest of the soldiers were holding blunt weapons in their arms, sitting in various passages, leaning their backs against the city wall, squinting their eyes, Recharge your batteries.

After all, they all knew that the coalition forces were only retreating temporarily.

In order to prevent the coalition forces from attacking in the middle of the night, they did not remove their armor, and they were also physically and mentally exhausted after experiencing the tragic fighting during the day.

There are more than 3 comrades, and now there are less than [-] left.

At the same time, it is also very clear that when the coalition forces attack next time, they will follow in the footsteps of the soldiers who died in battle and sleep forever in this piece of land.

Regret, maybe there will be.

However, this will not negate the decision in my heart, the decision to stay here to block the pace of the coalition forces.

Therefore, the atmosphere on the city wall is also somewhat heavy.

And Cao Cao and others were also surrounded in one place.

Their mood is not that good. Although they know that the atmosphere is a bit heavy, they don't know how to say it. In the current situation, nothing they say has much effect.

Moreover, now, there is no need to talk too much. If you talk too much, a different situation may appear instead.

Although Xia Houyuan and others were discussing things, Cao Cao looked a little absent-minded.

Cao Cao was still thinking about Lu Bu leading the troops to rescue the siege, he still had some doubts in his heart, and at the same time he was thinking about what Xi Zhicai had said before.

Considering how likely it is.

He is not afraid of death, but if he has the opportunity, he can stop this huge coalition army outside the city from the Western Region Mansion and wipe it out here.

This is still what he wants.

When Cao Cao was thinking about things.

"Who came down from the city?"

A shout sounded from the edge of the city wall.

Because of this voice, the resting Wei army officers and soldiers, as well as Cao Cao and others were all woken up.

Cao Cao also hurriedly led the crowd and walked towards the city wall first.

I saw that there was one person and one rider under the city wall.

"I am Chen Gong, please see Emperor Wei!"

The person who came was Chen Gong, a military advisor under Lu Bu's command, and he was also sent by Lu Bu.

Although he was the only one who came, it was because the coalition forces had retreated three miles away, and no one was sent to guard them, so he was planning to come here at night, and besides, there was Lu Bu personally leading a hundred cavalry and guarding Chen Gong. It's just that they are not close to the city wall, but are on the periphery to guard against the movements of the coalition forces.

By firelight.

Cao Cao also recognized Chen Gong, after all, they had crossed paths before.

"Quickly, put down the basket and pull it up!" Cao Cao ordered.

Now the gate of the city has been blocked, and the only way to climb the city is with the help of climbing ladders and ropes.

The climbing ladder was used by the coalition forces to attack the city, and it was not left behind. Now, those who can climb the city can only tie the basket with a rope, put the basket down, and pull people up.

Hear Cao Cao's order.

The generals of the Wei army quickly put the basket down, and pulled Chen Gong up with force.

Seeing Chen Gong being dragged up the city wall.

Cao Cao and others quickly surrounded him.

They want to know what Chen Gong came here for, and they also have many things they want to find out.

Although they have made up their minds, they still want to figure out what happened.

When Chen Gong saw Cao Cao and others surrounding him, he also had some understanding in his heart.

He saluted Cao Cao and others.

However, before he finished saluting, he was held back by the impetuous Cao Cao and walked towards the gate tower.

for such a situation.

Chen Gong didn't have any accidents, and let Cao Cao pull him towards the city gate.

He was also entrusted by Lu Bu to come here, and under Lu Bu's command, he also came here, and he was the most suitable candidate, who could figure things out very well.

Although they are in different camps, they still admire what Cao Cao has done now.

Otherwise, they would not have led the army to support the Wei army, so that the coalition forces could not take the Western Region Mansion in one battle.

Walked into the city gate tower.

Before Cao Cao and the others could speak, Chen Gong spoke first, telling the origin of the coalition forces outside the city and why their group appeared here.

But that's just a brief explanation. To make a long story short, after all, there are so many things that can't be finished in a short while.

This is the end.

Cao Cao and others also understood a lot of things.

It is also clear where and why the soldiers and horses outside the city came from.

There was also a look of shock on his face.

Even if what Chen Gong said is very simple, they can also know from it how much Lu Bu and others have experienced when they led the army to leave the Central Plains.

It will not be as simple as Chen Gong said.

Moreover, I also know that the appearance of Lu Bu and others is not real reinforcements, but just retreated from the western land, and at the same time encountered the incident here, so they came to help.

As for the real reinforcements.

Even Lu Bu and the others don't know when they will arrive.
