The city gate fell and flames ignited.

There is chaos in Shinye City.

There were people running for life and Liu Bei's soldiers everywhere.

Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others protected Liu Bei and rushed towards the south gate of the city.

When they arrived at the city gate, they found that the city gate was closed and the city gate was filled with people who wanted to leave the city.

"Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" Zhang Fei shouted loudly and led a group of soldiers to rush forward.

"What's going on?" rushed to the front, Zhang Fei shouted to an officer who was silent and unruly, "Why don't you open the city gate?"

"Report to the general, the city gate was blocked from outside." The officer shouted: "We cannot open it."

"Bad, smash it for me." Zhang Fei shouted loudly.

The flames in the city are getting stronger and stronger, and people near the city gate can already feel the scorching heat of the flames.

Many of the people and soldiers who failed to escape in time were swallowed by the flames. The firewood that Liu Bei's army had prepared before actually became a death talisman to demand their own lives.

Zhang Fei led a group of people to carry the wooden stake and beat the city gate hard.

The city gate trembled, but it never opened.

"Damn." Zhang Fei cursed: "If you do anything, you can block the city gate from outside."

"General, the enemy built a road outside the city gate." No matter how solid the city gate was, it was still knocked out of a gap. A sharp-eyed officer shouted loudly.

"Crash again!" Zhang Fei shouted: "When you are enough to go out alone, go out first and break the enemy's hands and feet outside."

The fire is getting stronger and stronger. In order to escape, people are struggling to hit the city gate.

Finally, the city gate was knocked open to allow a person to go out.

The dark crowd went out from this opening, and I don’t know when it was going to go.

Zhang Fei asked someone to block the people and soldiers coming up from behind, and first asked a team of people to take a hoe and a shovel to leave the city.

After the group of people left the city, they waved their tools to destroy the ridge built by the spies under Cao Shuo at the city gate.

After they waved a few times, a rain of arrows flew into the dark corner not far away.

The rain of arrows fell and the group fell to the ground.

Of course, the dead were lying there quietly, while the undead were rolling and wailing on the ground.

"Go out another team and form a shield for me." Zhang Fei shouted: "No matter what, open the city gate for me."

More soldiers rushed out of the cracks that opened.

At first, arrows flew in the distance, and as the gap between the city gate became larger and larger, the arrows stopped.

The city gate finally opened, and the dusty Liu Bei led the army out of the city.

He didn't care about Xinye at all, and Liu Bei shouted: "Soldiers, protect the people and follow me!"

The people of Xinye who escaped from the city refused to follow Liu Bei at all.

But Liu Bei's soldiers raised their weapons against the people who resisted the most fiercely.

Forced by the weapons in the hands of soldiers, the people had to reluctantly follow the army.

The flames in Xinye City are getting stronger and stronger, and the team leaving is sad, and many women and children are crying while walking.

The people were crying for distraught, but he gave the order to evacuate himself, so Liu Bei couldn't say anything, but just looked back with dissatisfaction.

"Brother, do you want to kill all the crying people?" Zhang Fei asked in a low voice.

"How to kill so many people cry?" Liu Bei said: "Let them first and wait until we find a place to stay."

He then asked Zhuge Liang, "Where should we go?"

Zhuge Liang thought for a while and replied: "The lord had many kind people in Jingzhou, and there were also many in Xiangyang City. I heard that Liu Cong planned to present Jingzhou to the Cao family, and someone would definitely refuse to agree. In my opinion, we might as well go to Xiangyang first. If we can seize Xiangyang, we can mobilize the troops in Jingzhou and fight to the death with the Cao family."

"Liu Jingsheng is my fellow disciple. He gave me a place to stay when I was in trouble." Liu Bei said: "How can I bear it now that I want me to seize Xiangyang?"

"If the lord doesn't have Xiangyang, he will be taken by the Cao family." Zhuge Liang said: "Mr. Jingsheng is also surnamed Liu, and his lord is surnamed Liu. If he falls into the hands of the Cao family, he is better to be taken by the lord."

"When is it that my brother is still having a love affair with a dead man?" Zhang Fei said from the side: "I think Mr. Kong Ming is right. Liu Jingsheng's surname is Liu, and his brother is also Liu. Instead of asking Liu Cong to present Jingzhou to the Cao family, it is better for my brother to take it."

"It's really safe?" Liu Bei asked Zhuge Liang hesitantly.

"There is nothing wrong with it." Zhuge Liang said: "The Cao family's army is coming to destroy Jingzhou. The lord has obtained Jingzhou, and Liu Jingsheng has to thank you in the nine springs."

Frowning, Liu Bei thought for a moment and said to Zhuge Liang: "How to get Xiangyang depends entirely on Kong Ming."

"Don't worry, lord," Zhuge Liang said, "I will now order people to enter Xiangyang first, find the inner supporter in the city, and welcome the lord into the city."

Liu Bei planned to capture Xiangyang, and Cai Mao was also on the way back to Xiangyang.

He rode his horse along the way.

The officer who followed him said, "The general doesn't have to be in such a hurry. Cao Zirong has some days to arrive in Xinye..."

"Cao Zirong's attack on the city will never delay it for too long." Cai Mao said: "And Liu Xuande is cunning, and it is hard to say whether he or not he is defending the city. Since Cao Zirong reminds us to defend Xiangyang, there must be something wrong in Xiangyang, so it's safe to go back soon."

The officer said nothing more and led a group of guards to escort Cai Mao to Xiangyang.

Xinye was burned, and Cao Shu didn't get the news until the next morning.

Upon receiving the news, Cao Shu continued to lead the army to Xinye.

Lu Bu, who was following him, said, "Young Master, do you want me to take the troops to Xinye first to have a look?"

"No need to look at it." Cao Shuo said: "There should be nothing left in Xinye City at this time. Since Liu Xuande wants to take the people away, he must have followed him. We went there just to take a look."

Lu Bu didn't say anything anymore.

Among the generals under Cao Shu, he was the one who wanted to kill Liu Bei the most.

But every time I saw that the opportunity came, I was run away by Liu Bei.

"Does General Lu really want to kill Liu Xuande?" Cao Shuo asked with a grin at him.

"The big-eared thief is traitorous. If I capture him, I will definitely tear him to pieces." Lu Bu said gritting his teeth.

"If I can really capture Liu Xuande, I will give him to General Lu." Cao Shuo smiled slightly: "Anyway, I can't allow him to live, and anyone who wants to kill him will be killed. If it falls into his father's hands, I may not say that he will die yet. I will not take such a risk."

"Thank you, young master!" Cao Shuo agreed to hand over Liu Bei to him for disposal, and Lu Bu hurriedly thanked.
