"What? Am I surrounded?!"

Lü Chang looked at the messenger in front of him with a confused look on his face.

When Guan Yu sent out the vanguard, he also sent someone to inform Liu Chan.

After Cao Ren learned that the Han vanguard was approaching, he realized that he had fallen into the trap and sent The messenger informed Lu Chang.

Therefore, Liu Chan got the news before Lu Chang.

Cao Jun's victory was due to the close distance, so even if the two sides were ahead and behind, the time was almost the same.

"Report back to the general, the enemy vanguard has already arrived at Xiangyang City...."

Lu Chang's face was filled with surprise and uncertainty, knowing how bad his situation was.

When the Han army approached Xiangyang, he would definitely not be able to go back because the door was blocked by the Han army.

There are 2,000 white soldiers led by Liu Chan in front. The Han army only needs to detach a partial division to attack Lu Chang's back. When the attack comes, Lu Chang will definitely die.

"what to do? Lu Chang lost his guard,"Won't General Cao Ren come to save me?""

"General Cao Ren has no choice but to send troops to rescue now. He will undoubtedly fight the fire with salary and sink deeper and deeper...."

Xiangfan didn't have many troops, so he sent more troops to meet Lu Chang.

Not only will they not be able to save Lu Chang, but they will also bring in more troops and at the same time dilute Xiangfan's defensive strength again.

"Damn it!"Lv Chang cursed loudly, and he didn't know who he was scolding.

In short, Lu Chang understood that he had become an outcast.

"When the news came, he resigned from his humble position first."The messenger left in a hurry.

It is easy for one person to run back to Xiangyang, but it is completely impossible for five thousand people to run back. Guan Ping and Liao Hua are not blind.

What's more, if Lu Chang retreats now, Liu Chan will definitely bite him and delay his retreat.

All in all, Lu Chang and Cao Cao's five thousand troops are currently in a state that cannot be saved by gods.

"General, what should we do?"The lieutenant general suggested:"It's better to withdraw. Five thousand people will fight to the death to break through, and maybe they can survive."

"No. Lu Chang shook his head in denial,"We still have a glimmer of hope. It may not be impossible to escape intact.""

"Is the plan coming out?"The deputy general's eyes lit up.

"Do the opposite!"Lu Chang pointed to the west and said:"There are only two thousand enemy troops over there. This can never be deceived."

"That's right."The deputy general nodded repeatedly,"There are only two thousand enemy troops in the west. Our scouts have repeatedly confirmed"

"Well. Lu Chang said in a deep voice:"The two armies are now ten miles apart. Let's deal with these two thousand enemy troops first, and the situation of the front and rear pincer attacks can be resolved!""

"yes!"The deputy general suddenly realized

"The enemy vanguard only has 10,000 troops, and they are currently under Xiangyang City. They can send up to 5,000 troops to outflank us."Lv Chang continued his analysis:"As long as we don't get caught in a pincer attack, five thousand versus five thousand, our chances of survival will be much greater."

"The general finally understood."Vice-General Su Rong said:"Please give me the order, General!"

"Send me military orders! Lu Chang raised his voice and said:"The whole army goes west to destroy the Shu thieves!""

Lü Chang was so smart that he thought he would have a chance to survive by killing Liu Chan first and then returning to Xiangyang. Didn't he know that this was a dead end?

His only way to survive was to return to Xiangyang immediately. Regardless of casualties, he might be able to escape with some of his people....

"Your Highness, Cao Jun has taken action and is coming towards us."

The Han army scouts have been staring at Cao Jun. As soon as Lu Chang made a move, the scouts immediately came to report

"This is causing trouble for us. Liu Chan said with a smile:"It seems that it must be Zhongfu's side who acted. Cao Jun in the Xiangfan area reacted.""

"But if they don't run away quickly, they still want to come to me first?"

Ma Chao on the side analyzed:"Perhaps they want to take advantage of the fact that the rear is not outflanking, so they can deal with us first and break the situation of being attacked from the front and back. After all, we only have 2,000 people and there are 5,000 Cao's troops on the opposite side."

"Hey. Liu Chan joked:"Uncle, this guy treats you like a soft persimmon.""

"Please give your orders, Your Highness."Ma Chao solemnly requested orders.

"My nephew is not familiar with military affairs, and my uncle has been fighting for many years. You will be solely responsible for this battle."Liu Chan didn't waste any time and directly handed the baton to Ma Chao.

Although Liu Chan also knew how to play with Cao Jun next, handing over the military power to Ma Chao showed his trust in him.

As expected, Ma Chao had full authority upon hearing this. Command, his eyes began to shine. It has been many years since he personally commanded an army to fight.

"Don't worry, Your Highness! Ma Chao cupped his fists and said,"Let's see if we kill the enemy in the end!"

Then Ma Chao waved his big hand and said:"Carry out all the things and set up camp on the spot!""

Liu Chan's eyes suddenly widened. He originally thought that Ma Chao would order to retreat and not confront Cao's army head-on. He would wait until Guan Ping arrived and then attack from both front and back. Unexpectedly,

Ma Chao not only refused to retreat, but also defended the enemy in place.

For a moment , Ma Chao would not retreat. Later, Liu Chan saw the white soldiers carrying out the horses and antlers, and then began to dig trenches....

"Uncle, when did you get these things?"Liu Chan was quite curious.

"Haha~" Ma Chao said with a proud smile:"Your Highness only walks ten miles a day, and you are free when you are idle. There are many mountains and forests here, and there is no shortage of wood. The general will order the soldiers to build it at his leisure."

"It seemed that his uncle had already thought about how to deal with the enemy, so his nephew didn't need to worry about it anymore."Liu Chan was greatly reassured.

Ma Chao, a veteran on the battlefield, is really worry-free to use, and he finished the work before he knew it.

The ten miles passed in an instant, and Cao Jun came very quickly.

But Ju Ma and Lu Jiao were both With ready-made things, the Han army moved equally quickly. After arranging these things, they quickly dug a few trenches. Therefore, when Lu Chang arrived with 5,000 Cao troops, the Han army also set up camp.

"My life is at an end!"

When Lu Chang saw the Han army, which had been prepared for a long time, he was immediately filled with despair....
