Pang Yuan rushed to Yangdi to assist Liu Bei. This was what Pang Yuan volunteered to win. Pang Yuan had only one reason, that is, he had a grudge against Cao Cao!

Liu Bei had nothing. He just transferred Chen Zhen, who was good at civil affairs, back to Wan County to take charge. If there was a problem with the resettlement of the people who had worked hard to get them back from Sili, Liu Bei would not have enough time to cry.

There was also a small snowfall near Yangdi. The surrounding mountains were already mottled, and the snow on the ground was shoveled together by the siege Cao army, and it was piled up into snow towers. The infantry siege were just using these snow towers to avoid arrows and approaching the city wall.

The war drums rumbled, the horns and the shouts of killing were as deafening as ever, but Pang Yuan had no longer felt excited. Standing on the city gate, Pang Yuan, in addition to using military skills, was shaking his white feather fan that seemed to be using the old one, and looked at the fierce battle under the city with a quiet expression.

What is the reason for the detriment of winter to attack the city? In summer, in addition to the rolling wood and stones, the city defense also has powerful killing weapons such as boiling water and oil. However, if you are not careful, you will shoot yourself in the foot. Especially when the opponent is close to the opponent's ability to swing the skills, the oil pan may be ignited by the opponent's skills at any time.

In winter, the soldiers in the city are relatively welfare. They can burn water on the city and keep warm. What's more interesting is that they don't need to heat up. Just burn the ice cubes, and then pour them with cold water to give the enemy who is siegeing the city a cool and wet soldier will soon lose the ability to move in this kind of weather.

Of course, there are more details that are beneficial to the defense, so Cao Cao's attack was quite difficult, but Cao's army has always been tenacious, and even if it is difficult, they will not retreat.

"Fuqing. Cao's morale is very high!"

"Sir, the morale of Cao's army has always been so high, which is not surprising at all. If Lord Liu wants to make a fuss about morale, there is almost no possibility. However, the morale of our army is not bad! Haha."

Liu Bei smiled vaguely and asked, "Fuqing thinks, how long can we stay?"

"There will definitely be no problem for ten days and half a month. The problem is, the cavalry of Cao's army!"

Liu Bei frowned. The four cavalry of Cao's army, including Xu Chu, Cao Hong, Yan Xing and Liang Xing, have all been launched. Although Li Su tried his best to entangle, it was impossible to defeat four hands with both fists. It would be great to be able to restrain and delay a little. It is obviously unrealistic to stop the opponent's cavalry from encircling.

Liu Bei frowned, and his face was full of wrinkles and ravines.

"This... we need to prepare early!"

"That's right, Lord Liu must prepare early. There is a possibility of being blocked from Yangcheng to Yangdi at any time. Perhaps we need to climb directly from the mountain and go directly to Liang County. Our subordinates think that we should send people to the mountain to explore the road now, and prepare materials for mountain climbing and cold protection."

Liu Bei nodded when he heard this. There was only one road from Yangdi to Yangcheng along Yingshui. The east side of the road was a mountainous area, which was easily blocked by the enemy. If you don’t go to Yangcheng, you can only cross the hilly and mountainous areas on the west and go directly to Liang County. Although the distance is not very far, there is no road at all. However, you don’t have to worry about being harassed by cavalry on this road.

"What Fuqing said is very much. I will arrange for people to prepare now, and it is best to find out the road clearly!"

"It's right. By the way, adults must prepare enough firewood and fire-induced objects. In order to keep the soldiers warm and drive away the cold, and maybe there is a chance to teach Cao Cao another lesson!"

Pang Yuan said with a smile, his tone seemed very relaxed. Liu Bei's eyes lit up when he heard this and he looked at Pang Yuan in surprise. However, Pang Yuan's cultivation is getting more and more powerful now. On the surface, there is no way he is thinking about what he is thinking.

The speaker is unintentional and the listener is intentional. Pang Yuan may just do it casually, and if he succeeds, he will be happy. It doesn’t matter if he fails. However, Liu Bei is a little worried about gains and losses. Liu Bei’s personality just likes to think about it, but he often can’t figure out the idea.

"Fuqing has a way to defeat Cao Cao?"

"Haha, sir, it is possible to repel. It is too difficult to defeat. And now the general trend is difficult to reverse. sir, don't rely on hopes for a battle. Even if we can defeat Cao Cao completely, Cao Cao will only lose some troops and will not change the entire situation at all."

Liu Bei laughed dryly and threw away the fantasies in his heart: "It's better to be able to repel them, haha."

"It depends on the specific opportunity. You only need to prepare more items that cause fire. In addition, prepare some white cloth. If necessary, it can be used as a cover for ambush!"

"I understand, I'll make arrangements now!" Liu Bei turned around and took two steps with a smile, then suddenly stopped and turned to look at Pang Yuan: "Fuqing, when will these preparations be completed?"

"It's best to complete it tomorrow and the next day. Our best evacuation time is the night after tomorrow!"

"The night after tomorrow? Why is this?"

"Haha, that's right, sir, please forgive me for keeping me in a way. The ancients said something wrong and would be a big deal. Then sir, you will know it!"

Liu Bei blinked, laughed and turned around and left.

Pang Yuan watched Liu Bei leave and turned to look outside the city. Outside the range, Cao Cao still liked to set up a high command tower. If he encountered a strong man like Lu Bu and Fang Zhiwen, he would probably go directly to Cao Cao's command tower, with obvious goals!

Unfortunately, Liu Bei does not have such a strong army at present, and even Guan Yu cannot do it, because Liu Bei does not have a powerful cavalry! This has to be said to be a pity. There are no good horses in the south, and powerful cavalry has become a luxury!

Pang Yuan even more suspected that Fang Zhiwen was in it. He deliberately did not supply Liu Bei with sufficient war horses. The ox was very sufficient. Of course, Pang Yuan would not believe that if the ox could be transported, the war horses would not be transported?

....................................

Two days later, the sun slowly fell behind the West Mountain behind the thin clouds, and the night began to cover the earth. As soon as the sky was dark, the temperature dropped sharply. The cold weather made the bowstrings become crisp. Cao Cao also stopped attacking and retreated his troops back to the camp. Only some strange people were still patrolling outside the city, and from time to time they would approach the city wall and throw a few skills on the city wall, hoping to gain some meritorious points.

There are also players in the city who are ambushing, ready to give these guys who are trying to scramble to fish at any time. Scattered explosions and the light of skills flashed across the city from time to time, as if they made an annotation for the quiet night and the battlefield, reminding everyone not to forget that this is a bloody battlefield.

Unlike the quiet outside the city, the city is busy in a low-key manner. On the street, soldiers are lined up in groups, waiting to collect supplies. The team officials whispered to explain what to pay attention to when marching in the dark and what supplies to be received later, and explained to everyone which supplies can be used and which materials cannot be used without receiving orders.

Near the city gate, baskets of frozen dry food were placed here. The soldiers passing by put the three-day grain in the cloth bags with prepared cloth bags, tied them carefully and hung them on their chests. This is life and cannot be lost!

Although he was very careful in the city, how could there be any stranger who could hide the news from Cao Cao outside the city? When he learned that Liu Bei ran away overnight, Cao Cao immediately ordered people to occupy the city gate. Cao Cao did not dare to stay in the city and ensured the safety of the road, Cao Cao passed through the city and chased after him overnight.

Cao Cao was very careful and used a large number of scouts and strangers along the way, but he was too careful. Liu Bei was not prepared to ambush Cao Cao during the retreat. However, before chasing him for a long time, Cao Cao found that Liu Bei was as sharp as a ghost. He seemed to have guessed that there was an ambush on the road to Yangcheng, and turned directly to the west and entered the remote hilly area. Cao Cao had indeed ordered the cavalry of Xu Chu and others to speed up to Yingshui, preparing to ambush Liu Bei halfway.

Cao Cao hesitated for a moment and decided to chase after him again. Of course, there is no need to chase him so urgently. If Liu Bei's men are exhausted, Cao Cao can go up and beat the dogs. If Liu Bei is very cautious, Cao Cao will just push the front line to Liang County, directly blocking Liu Bei's passage to retreat south and blocking the road for Liu Bei to migrate the people.

Liu Bei did not leave quickly, and Cao Cao soon chased him within five miles. Liu Bei was not in a hurry, so Cao Cao could not be in a hurry. This is a strange place and it is dark again. Be careful not to make a big mistake.

After chasing until midnight, Cao Cao discovered problems from the information he had been gathering. The scouts and strangers on his side seemed to frequently encounter the enemy. In other words, Liu Bei divided his troops during the retreat. He was breaking up into pieces and gradually forming a loose encirclement around him. But what's the use of this? What combat power can such a dispersed force have?

Cao Cao was thinking about whether to speed up and catch up, breaking Liu Bei's loose encirclement in one fell swoop. It would be better if Liu Bei could be caught. If it doesn't work, go straight to Liang County and capture Liang County first, leaving Liu Bei nowhere to escape!

"Lord, there is light on the mountain over there!"

Cao Xiu's words made Cao Cao come to his senses, and he sat immediately and turned his head to look. Sure enough, there seemed to be a fire on the mountain on the left. Although there was snow on the mountain, the snow was not thick. When the dead grass and dry trees on the mountain encountered flames, they immediately tended to burn more and more.

After a while, a large fire ignited on the right, front, and on the hills and high ground behind, and Cao Cao frowned.

"Telection to cut off all the trees and hay around the valley, create a segregation and bring it out."

"promise!"

"Lord, what is Liu Bei doing? Do you just want to stop us from chasing? The mountain is not big, there are not many trees and hay, and it will not last long if we can't burn it. What does this mean?"

Cao Cao didn't understand why. He frowned and looked around. The surrounding hills had caught fire, but the fire was not very big, and it was impossible to burn Cao Cao's troops. He really didn't understand what Liu Bei was doing, but Cao Cao, who was experienced, knew that when you didn't know what your opponent was doing, danger was about to come.

"Instruct all the soldiers to be careful and set up a formation!"
