    Lu Bu was impatient. After finishing his words, he rushed south without waiting for Zhao Yun to ask more questions.

    ¡°I¡¯m afraid that Xu Sheng is running too fast and I won¡¯t be able to catch up later.

    In this way, Zhao Yun is the only one left here.

    Zhao Yun thought about Lu Bu's words, but found that the matter was not as simple as the other party said.

    Huang Gai and Xu Sheng certainly wanted to mislead Lu Bu and prevent the other party from catching up with Sun Quan's army and split up.

    But how can we be sure that the direction one of them is going is the direction Sun Quan left before?

    ???????????????????????? Moreover, if we want to divert the enemy troops, we naturally have to divert them as far away as possible.

    ¡°Then it should be one east and one west, how could it be only east and south.

    In this way, even if you find that you are chasing the wrong person halfway, you can still turn around without wasting too much time.

    So, Zhao Yun put himself in Huang Gai's position and analyzed it from his perspective.

    In the end, Zhao Yun finally made a bold guess, that is, the escape route of the two men was probably not in the direction of Sun Quan.

    In this case, it is self-evident that Sun Quan's location is to the west.

    Zhao Yun has a little understanding of the geography here. If you go further west from here, you will reach Dangyang County. From there, you can turn south and go directly to Jiangling along the Zhang River.

    Therefore, Zhao Yun thought for a moment and finally decided to take a risk, give up pursuing Huang Gai, and directly pursue westward.

    But it was said that Zhou Yu arranged for Huang Gai, Xu Sheng, and Chen Wu to set up an ambush in the valley. After delaying Lu Bu, he was still worried.

    Worried that Lu Bu would be brave enough to break through the defense line and rush in to kill him, he was caught off guard.

    Therefore, he paid attention to placing many hidden sentries along the way. As long as there was any disturbance in the weather, he would report it immediately.

    When I heard that Huang Gai and Xu Sheng's soldiers split into two groups and fled east and south respectively, Lu Bu chased Xu Sheng to the south.

    Zhou Yu felt a little relieved, but not long after, another scout came to report.

    Yan said that another troop of soldiers and horses came from the north, and they came straight towards this side. The general's flag had the word "Zhao" written on it, and his subordinates were all white-clothed and white horses. They looked extraordinary.

    When Zhou Yu heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

    "My lord, the person coming must be the white horse Yi Cong brought by Zhao Yun. This cavalry is extraordinary in strength and will never be inferior to Lu Bu's Bingzhou cavalry. We must guard against it!"

    Sun Quan nodded immediately: "I have heard of Zhao Yun's name before. What do you think Gong Jin should do to defeat the enemy now?"

    Zhou Yu raised his head and looked at the surrounding terrain, and said slowly: "Please look, my lord, the terrain here seems to be flat and safe.

    However, there are several overlapping hillsides. The enemy would not have expected the danger here when they first arrived, and they would have taken it lightly.

    But we did exactly the opposite and planted a few ambush soldiers on the back of the surrounding hillsides.

    It's okay if the enemy troops don't arrive. As soon as you step into this place, the army will suddenly attack from all sides, and the opponent will be caught off guard.

    When the time comes, everything you can see is enemy troops. Then Zhao Yun will have no time to escape, so how can he care about pursuing his lord?  "

    "This is a great plan! But"

    Sun Quan had been beaten a lot by the enemy during this period, and he was inevitably a little hesitant and worried.

    So, under Zhou Yu¡¯s puzzled gaze, he spoke out what was on his mind.

    "Although this plan is good, I'm afraid that Zhao Yun is not an ordinary person, if he still breaks through.

    With all the troops besieging Zhao Yun, wouldn¡¯t there be an emptiness in the rear?  With Zhao Yun's strength, how could anyone stop him?  "

    When Zhou Yu heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned.

    In fact, although Sun Quan said it tactfully, he just thought that this strategy was not safe enough and was worried that Zhao Yun would threaten his safety.

    In this case, Zhou Yu had no choice but to continue thinking.

    At this moment, the army finally came to the edge of a wide river.

    Zhou Yu¡¯s eyes finally lit up when he saw it, and he already had an idea in his mind.

    He pointed to the river in front of him and said: "Take the initiative, this is Zhangshui, and from here to the south, you will reach Dangyang County.

    We can ambush another group of troops to block the bridge. If our army defeats Zhao Yun, we can lead the remaining troops across the river.

    If Zhao Yun were to kill him, he could have broken the bridge and defended it by the water. But if Zhao Yun had only cavalry, how could he cross the river so easily?

    When the time comes to face the pursuing troops and make a last-ditch fight, there will be heavy casualties!

    This is double insurance, so even if Zhao Yun is a godIf you come to this world, what can you do to our army?  "

    After hearing Zhou Yu¡¯s plan, Sun Quan finally felt relieved this time.

    He nodded and said, "This plan is all linked together, so I have nothing to worry about!"

    With that said, Sun Quan finally crossed the river and rushed to Dangyang County. After Zhou Yu arranged the garrison at various places, he stayed here and continued to supervise the battle.

    After Zhao Yun made his decision, he no longer hesitated and chased westward.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????: No one was encountered along the way, and no clues were found, which almost made Zhao Yun think that he was pursuing the wrong direction.

    However, fortunately, Zhao Yun was still more patient than Lu Bu. He did not make an immediate decision, but continued to move forward for more than ten miles.

    This time, he finally saw some traces left by the passing army.

    Zhao Yun¡¯s originally worried heart finally subsided.

    "Humph! If you had continued to pretend for a while, I might have made the wrong decision.

    "It's only my fault that you didn't do the whole thing, and finally showed your flaws.  "

    Now that the existence of the enemy's main force was confirmed, Zhao Yun finally no longer hesitated and quickly followed the direction of the traces.

    ¡°As for Lu Bu, now that he has determined his direction, he will naturally pursue it all the way to the end.

    When Xu Sheng saw Lu Bu chasing after him, he didn't dare to carry anything with him. He gritted his teeth and ran towards the set direction.

    Xu Sheng's destination this time is the fortress Jingcheng located downstream of the Han River. This place guards the Han River and is guarded by General Sun Yu. Even if Lu Bu comes, he will not get any benefits.

    It¡¯s just that although he had good intentions, he underestimated Lu Bu¡¯s pursuit speed.

    Lu Bu's Bingzhou cavalry are all brave and good at fighting, and the horses they ride on are all good horses from outside the Great Wall. Their pace is much faster than Xu Sheng's mount.

    Therefore, when Xu Sheng ran less than fifty miles, Lu Bu's army got closer and closer, and he was catching up.

    Xu Sheng was very anxious. When he saw a mountain peak not far ahead, he immediately ordered: "Hurry to the mountain and defend it.

    "Lu Bu wants to annihilate our entire army, so we are not vegetarians. Even if we lose, we must teach him a lesson!"  "

    The soldiers under his command had long lost their opinions and could only follow the general's arrangements and go to the mountains to defend the enemy.

    The army had just set up an ambush in the mountains when they saw Lu Bu already appearing in the field of vision, rushing towards this side non-stop.

    Xu Sheng couldn't help but hold his breath, waiting for Lu Bu to enter his ambush.

    When he came to the foot of the mountain, Xu Sheng finally roared, and all his soldiers immediately emerged from the forest and shot arrows at him.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
