Unparalleled Huaxiong of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 426
After Yuan Shu shouted, he remembered that Ji Ling in Lujiang had no sailors under his command, so Yuan Shu hurriedly shouted outside the tent: "Quickly tell Li Bao's sailors, let him go down the river to chase after him!"

At this time, Di Qing came striding from the outside, and he cupped his hands towards Yuan Shu and said, "Gong Yuan, let Sun Ce run away, let him run away. The Jin Yiwei in our army has found out that it was Liu Xuande who attacked the scout behind our army. It seems that It was Sun Ce who secretly gave up on Liu Bei, now is the perfect time to annihilate him!"

"Hahahaha!"

Yuan Shu laughed loudly when he heard Di Qing's words: "This big-eared thief who has repeatedly betrayed the Lord has come recently?! Okay, let's let Sun Ce go first!"

Afterwards, Yuan Shu's army marched into Chaisang, and Di Qing led the ghost army out of the city late at night and rushed towards a forest in the southwest of Chaisang. When they reached the foot of a mountain in the middle, all the ghost troops dismounted, leaving a group of people to guard the horses. The rest hiked into the mountains.

It was late at night, and the forest was unusually quiet, only the sound of animals running from time to time, not even birdsong.

Leading the way by a few Jinyi guards, thousands of ghost troops wearing ghost masks moved forward bit by bit in the dark in the forest.

Suddenly, a Jinyi guard who led the way raised his hand and squatted down. In an instant, all the soldiers of the ghost army behind him stopped in unison. Patrol scouts."

Di Qing nodded and waved his hands behind him. Afterwards, several ghost soldiers quietly separated from the team and slowly advanced bit by bit through the dark place.

Soon, a series of low whimpers came from in front of Di Qing and the others, followed by rustling footsteps. Everyone waited for a while, and the group of soldiers from the ghost army who had just left came back, dripping from the tips of their knives. Blood, the leader of the group nodded to Di Qing.

Di Qing turned to look at Jin Yiwei who was leading the way, and then everyone continued to move forward.

At this time, in the depths of the mountain forest, an army of thousands of people was camping, the lights in the tent were still on, and Liu Bei was staring at the map on the table in a daze.

"Brother, the scout sent to report to Chaisang hasn't come back yet, so there won't be any accidents?"

Zhang Fei's deep voice brought Liu Bei back to reality, and he asked Zhang Fei, "Yide, what do you mean by that? What could happen?"

Zhang Fei lowered his head and frowned and said, "Brother, I don't know. I don't know what's wrong with the twitching eyelids. Why don't you call Mr. Wen Gao to ask? He's a scholar with many ideas."

When Zhang Fei mentioned Zhao Gao, Liu Bei always felt uneasy. Liu Bei shook his head slowly and said, "Forget it, it's late at night, let Mr. Wen Gao rest."

"Hey, it would be great if the second brother was here."

After Zhang Fei finished speaking, Liu Bei didn't speak, and the two fell into a brief moment of silence.

"what!"

Suddenly, a scream pierced the night sky and broke the silence in Liu Bei's barracks. Liu Bei suddenly raised his head and looked at Zhang Fei, and they both said at the same time: "There is an enemy attack!"

wow-

Zhang Fei lifted the curtain of the big tent and Liu Bei walked out, only to see that a corner of the big camp was completely in chaos at this time, but most of the military tents were still quiet, Liu Bei immediately shouted: "Go quickly!" Drum!"

Zhang Fei raised the Zhangba Snake Spear, and said to Liu Bei, "Don't panic, brother! Maybe it's just a group of mountain thieves, I'll go check it out first!"

"Yide don't act rashly!"

Liu Bei grabbed Zhang Fei. At this time, drums sounded in the barracks, and all the soldiers woke up from their sleep. Liu Bei immediately sent an order: "The whole army is in formation! Prepare for enemy attack!"

Immediately all Liu Bei's soldiers moved into action, Zhao Gao and Yang Youji also ran to Liu Bei's side, Liu Bei pointed to a corner of the barracks where there was a mess in the barracks and said to Yang Youji: "Brother Youji, please bring two teams People go over and check it out!"

"it is good!"

Yang Youji led the two teams and ran over there without saying a word. After a while, the panic over there calmed down. Yang Youji led the people and ran back to report to Liu Bei:
"A group of thieves came to rob the camp, but they have been killed and retreated."

"Ok?"

Liu Bei's eyelids twitched twice, was Zhang Fei really right?
"Hey! Brother, what do you think I'm talking about? You really are a bunch of little thieves!"

Liu Bei asked Yang Youji, "Have you ever been caught alive?"

Yang Youji shook his head: "No, the other party just left dozens of corpses and then withdrew."

Liu Bei said, "Go and have a look!"

Afterwards, Liu Bei led a group of people to the southeast corner of the barracks where the battle had just taken place. At this time, several camps here had been destroyed, and the simple fences built during camping were also collapsed on the ground. When the soldiers saw Liu Bei approaching, they stepped aside one after another. A field of corpses was exposed, including those of Liu Beijun and those who attacked the camp.

Liu Bei walked up to the corpse of a camp raider and took a closer look. There was no obvious identity on this person. Liu Bei took a closer look, then called a group of nearby soldiers over and asked them road:
"When I was fighting with these people just now, did you ever hear what dialect they were yelling?"

A village chief stepped forward and said: "My lord, these people seem to be unable to speak, they can only sob and howl like ghosts and wolves, but they are extremely vicious when they chop people up. Although there are only a hundred people on the other side, if it is not for General Ji came to help in time, I'm afraid we will be very troublesome."

"Can't speak?"

In an instant, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei looked at each other. They thought of an army under Hua Xiong they met in Jizhou, but if it was that army, why only a hundred people?
Liu Bei thought carefully for a moment, and said to Zhang Fei behind him: "Yide, send an order, the whole army will immediately move out and retreat in the direction of Chaisang!"

Zhang Fei's eyes were obviously puzzled, but he first conveyed the order to the various military lords before he came back and asked Liu Bei, "Brother, why is this?"

Liu Bei said in a low voice: "The attack on the camp just now was most likely a tactic by the enemy's exhaustion. Right now we only have a few thousand troops. If we are targeted by Yuan Shu's army, it may be a disaster."

Zhang Fei's eyebrows became more suspicious: "Brother, if that's the case, we still marched overnight? Didn't we fall into the enemy's hands?"

At this moment, Liu Bei turned his head to look at Yang Youji, and he said to Zhang Fei and Yang Youji, "If we continue to stay here, the enemy is in the dark and we are too passive in the Ming Dynasty, so we need a person in front now Open the way, you are the two with the strongest martial arts in the army at this time."

As he spoke, Liu Bei stretched out his fists and continued, "In my hands, I hold a lock of hair in one hand and nothing in the other. Choose between the two, and the one with the hair will be the striker."
