Volume 2 Qingzhou Zhipeng Section 84 Heroes and Rebellion

Lu Bu kicked away the blood-stained helmet and strode up the white marble steps. The palace of Shouchun is not as imposing as the Han Palace in Luoyang and Chang'an, but it is definitely much more imposing than Xiapi City. The pavilions and pavilions that came and went showed that Yuan Shu had spent a lot of manpower and material resources for his palace, and at this moment they all belonged to Lu Bu. Thinking of the many beauties and treasures that Yuan Shu had collected into the palace, Lu Bu's heart was hot, and even his steps became lighter. In contrast, Gao Shun and Cheng Lian, who followed closely behind, although they were also dressed as freshly dressed and bright-armored victors, their faces were much worse than their lords.

There are no allies - this is the first reaction in Gao Shun and Cheng Lian's minds after learning that Lu Bu is determined to sneak attack Shouchun. From Luoyang to Chang'an, from Chang'an to Yanzhou, from Yanzhou to Xuzhou, from Xuzhou to Shouchun. Lu Bu staged the trick of changing the king's flag at the head of the city again and again, which made the people of the world stunned. But at the same time, Ding Yuan, Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Yuan Shu, the names of these people were branded on Lu Bu's body, and every one of Lu Bu's generals. It is difficult for them to win the trust of others wherever they go. But even so, Gao Shun and Cheng Lian still faithfully carried out Lu Bu's orders.

In fact, a sneak attack on Shouchun is no more difficult than a sneak attack on Xia Pi. Peiguo of Lü Bu's garrison was only separated from Shouchun by a Huai River. And Lu Bu and Yuan Shu are still relatives and allies, and these two layers of relationship made Lu Bu's army cross the river and arrive in Shouchun as if they were in a no-man's land. Xu was Yuan Shu's own control of the entire Yangzhou, and Lü Bu was the alliance of in-laws, so he only left 5,000 men and horses to his brother Yuan Yin to be responsible for the defense of Shouchun during the western expedition. Although Yuan Yin once served as the Taishou of Danyang, in the final analysis, he was just a brother who was good at talking about Fengyue. When Lu Bu reported his name under Shouchun City, the imperial brother was so frightened that he abandoned the city and fled that night, leaving the huge Shouchun to Lu Bu.

However, although it was easy to take Shouchun City, Gao Shun and Cheng Lian did not think that Lu Bu could keep Shouchun. It must be known that Liu Xun, the general of Yuan Shu, was stationed in Lujiang, and his troops were originally used to guard against Sun Ce. And now, since Lu Bu has occupied Yuan Shu's Jingshi Shouchun, Liu Xun will inevitably lead his troops to take it. Liu Xun's soldiers and horses also have more than 10,000 people, and they are all brave and good Danyang soldiers. plus the garrisons of the surrounding cities of Chengde, Hefei and Quyang. It is not difficult to imagine that it will not be long before tens of thousands of Yuan Shu's soldiers will come to Shouchun City. In order to achieve the purpose of the surprise attack, Lu Bu only brought 8,000 Qu troops to the south this time. Look at Shouchun is not a place to stay for a long time.

Therefore, when he saw Lu Bu walking around Yuan Shu's dragon couch, Gao Shun could no longer hold back the worries in his heart, and quickly stepped forward to say to Lu Bu, "Lord, Yuan Yin has fled. Presumably, it won't be long before it will attract Lujiang Liu Xun to snatch Shouchun. I also asked the lord to find Lu Xiaoniang and evacuate Shouchun as much as possible. ”

No, Lu Bu announced to the public this time that the reason why he would attack Shouchun was to break the marriage contract with Yuan Shu and take back his daughter. As for the reason, it is that Yuan Shu has not paid the dowry so far. Of course, everyone in the world knows that Lu Bu will not be able to pick up his daughter in this way. Even Lu Bu himself was prepared for the worst. So after he entered the city, although he also sent people into the palace to look for his daughter, he never mentioned anything about his daughter until now.

At this time, hearing Gao Shun mention his daughter's matter, Lu Bu couldn't help frowning slightly, but he didn't answer directly, but turned back to Chen Deng, the initiator of this qiē, and asked, "Chen Junshi, what do you see?" ”

Deng thought that General Gao was reasonable. Shouchun is indeed not a place for the lord to stay for a long time. Chen Deng replied respectfully.

"Why?" Lu Bu stroked the gilded dragon couch and asked hesitantly.

And Chen Deng, under the gaze of the generals, said eloquently, "Lord Gong Mingjian, as General Gao said, the Lord Gong is inferior to Yuan Shu. And the lord lacked a naval army, so he could not compete with Yuan Shu's army in Yangzhou, where the river was crisscrossed. It is meaningless for the lord to blindly stick to Shouchun, it is better to loot the grain, grass, and money in the city and withdraw to Xiapi. ”

For Chen Deng, being able to incite Lü Bu to attack Shouchun and destroy the in-law alliance between him and Yuan Shu was undoubtedly a decisive step towards victory. Next, as long as Lu Bu and Yuan Shu fought on their own on this basis. Therefore, Chen Deng did not intend to continue to fan the flames in this matter, so as not to arouse Lu Bu's suspicion.

Sure enough, as soon as Chen Deng's words fell, he attracted the unanimous echo of all the generals present. And Gao Shun cast a strange look at Chen Deng. To be honest, until now, Gao Shun still couldn't figure out what Chen Deng's gourd was selling. This person sometimes inceives the lord to commit unrighteous acts, and sometimes he will offer wonderful advice to the lord. This made Gao Shun unclear whether Chen Deng was loyal or traitorous. However, Cheng Lian on the side didn't think as much as Gao Shun thought, so he clenched his fists and said loudly, "Junshi Chen is right. Lord, let's load up the money and grain and cross the river and go back to Xiapi. As for the bird, the palace was burned to the ground. ”

"Burned?" Lu Bu looked around at the splendid hall in front of him, and felt a little reluctant in his heart. Yes, thinking about how majestic the Han Palace in Luoyang was at the beginning, Dong Zhuo gave an order, and Lu Bu set it on fire without blinking his eyes. Chang'an's Weiyang is so magnificent, Lu Bu didn't say that he would lose it. I have to say that people are really strange.

And just when Lu Bu was silent, Cao Xing, the general of the waiting department, hurriedly came to him and hugged his fist, "My lord, I have found the little lady Qi." ”

"Where's Qi'er? Hurry up and take Gu away" As soon as Lu Bu heard that he had found his daughter, his expression immediately changed, and he no longer had any intention of attaching to the luxury in front of him, and instead took a cadre to drive Sui Cao Xuan to the harem.

When Lu Bu arrived at the heavily guarded palace, his daughter was dressed in fine clothes and sat on a couch accompanied by several palace maids of similar age. As soon as she saw Lu Bu coming, the girl immediately jumped up and threw herself into his arms with a crying voice, "Daddy"

"Don't be afraid, good daughter, daddy is here." Lu Bu hugged his daughter and comforted softly.

I didn't know that Lu Bu was appeased here, but the girl suddenly raised her little face and pointed at Cao Xing, who was standing at the door, and said sharply, "Daddy, these people broke into the inner palace with the intention of rebellion." Daddy helps Qi'er teach them a lesson."

In an instant, Lu Bu's face turned red and white, and he didn't know how to explain it to his daughter. Seeing this, Chen Deng, who was on the side, hurriedly motioned for Cao Xuan and the others to step back, and at the same time stepped forward to persuade the girl, "The little lady is frightened. Wen Hou is here to pick up the little lady home. ”

"Bold, I am a dignified princess. How could you be so presumptuous?"

The girl interrupted Chen Deng's words with a loud scolding. But it made Lu Bu realize that the situation was wrong. So he grabbed his daughter's shoulders and solemnly announced, "Qi'er, from today onwards, you are no longer the crown princess." You have nothing to do with the son of Yuan Shu. ”

"Yes...... But the prince treats Qi'er very well. The prince said that as long as Qi'er waited here, he would pick up Qi'er. The girl looked at her father with a puzzled expression. She didn't understand why her father, who was happily going to marry Yangzhou as the crown princess, would say such a thing.

But Lu Bu once again broke his daughter's illusion and said, "That kid is not the prince at all." He's a traitor. Lü Fengxian's daughter could not marry a traitor. Qi'er, you want to go back to Xiapi with your father, and your father will find a hero for you to be a wishful man. ”

"Don't" the girl screamed to break free from her father's arms, but her struggles to no avail.

Seeing this, Chen Deng hurriedly glanced at the several palace maids present and ordered, "The little lady is uncomfortable. You have to appease the little lady. If there is a bad pool, come and see you"

When the palace maids heard Chen Deng's words, they hurriedly stepped forward and coaxed and caressed the girl. Seeing this, Lu Bu had to sigh and handed over his daughter to the care of those palace maids. Tie Qing walked out of the palace with Chen Deng, and complained, "If I knew this, I should have beheaded Yuan Yao's kid clean."

No wonder Lu Bu would say such a thing. The Han Dynasty was very lenient on women's remarriage. In order to consolidate their respective relationships, it is not uncommon for a daughter to remarry several times. If she becomes a widow, she has good reason to remarry. In contrast, marriage between ordinary people is more free. But at the moment, Chen Deng didn't have the heart to care about how Lu Bu arranged for his daughter to remarry. All he cares about is how to use it to change the situation.

So after pondering for a moment, Chen Deng arched his hand and said, "Lord, Uncle Yuan Yao's nephew has fled from Shouchun, and it's too late to chase after him now." However, the lord can send Yuan Shuyu, who did not have time to escape in the city, to Xu Du to be questioned by the Son of Heaven. This can show the lord's loyalty to the Han family, and it is also an opportunity to make peace with Cao Cao. ”

Lu Bu listened to what Chen Deng said and nodded thoughtfully. Now that he has torn his face with Yuan Shu, he has to do his best to raise the banner of the imperial court again. Speaking of which, I, Lu Fengxian, am enduring humiliation for the revival of the Han family. Just like when they killed Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao and Liu Bei should not blame me, but on the contrary, they should thank me. If it weren't for my Lu Fengxian's sneak attack on Shouchun, Cao Cao would have been able to deal with Yuan Shu? Thinking of this, Lu Bu's mood suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

Regardless of what Lü Bu had in mind to rebel against his allies again, at least as he thought, his actions objectively relieved Cao Cao of the siege of Runan. Yuan Shu, who was originally besieging Runan, immediately gave up the fierce battle in front of him after learning that his lair had been raided by Lu Bu, turned his gun and rushed to aid Yangzhou. However, the confrontation between the two armies was child's play, and Yuan Shu's decision not only disrupted the position of his own camp, but also gave Cao Cao an opportunity.

No, just when Yuan Shujun was dragging his huge body to withdraw his troops from Runan, Cao Ren and Cao Zhen, who had been wandering around the periphery for a long time, were like hungry tigers and Cao Cao in Runan City flanked Yuan Shu back and forth. Where could Yuan Shujun, who was already panicked, withstand such a toss, and those rogues who came halfway were almost scattered at a touch. Yuan Shu was so frightened when he saw this, and immediately left the general Qiao Rui to break it, and fled all the way south under the escort of his personal escort. And under the response of Liu Xun, Ji Ling and other generals, he crossed the Huai River and rushed back to Shouchun.

It's just that Shouchun at this time is no longer the Shouchun when Yuan Shu was the emperor at the beginning. Lü Bu not only swept away the wealth of grain and grass that Yuan Shu had accumulated in Shouchun over the years, but also burned the palace he had carefully built to ridicule his stupidity. Of course, Yuan Shu was not the only one who suffered losses, and the Yangzhou families in Shouchun City were all completely looted without exception. Lü Bujun took away a piece of food, money, jewelry, brocade, and some of Yuan Shu's "important ministers".

Compared with Yuan Shu, who drank cold water and stuffed his teeth, Cao Cao, who had been blocked in Runan City for several months, was in high spirits at this time. He first broke the bridge in Ruyin, and killed all the generals such as Qiao Rui. Later, Zhang Xunbu, who was left behind by Yuan Shu to the north of the Huai River, was driven back to the south of the Huai River. And Liu Bei, who was also suppressed by Lu Bu and couldn't move in Xiaopei, also led his troops and horses to "recover" Xiao County, Wu County, and Zhuyi counties from Lu Bu's army in succession. It is true that everyone in the world knows that Lu Bu has turned against Yuan Shu, and he is in a delicate period when it is difficult to distinguish between friend and foe with the imperial court. But one more piece of land will give one more help, so Liu Bei doesn't blush at all for picking a ready-made bargain. On the contrary, he made a list everywhere as a Yuzhou pastor and accepted the surrender of all forces on the border of Yuxu. However, Liu Bei's expansion did not last long. In the midsummer and August of the second year of Jian'an, Cao Cao led his troops into Xiaopei and Liu Bei's troops to "join the division".

"I haven't seen you for a few months, and Liu Lingjun has lost a lot of weight."

In front of Xiaopei City, Cao Cao, who was in a red robe and a white horse, was chatting with Liu Bei enthusiastically. The latter, with his head down, responded with a humble gesture, "Sikong has won the prize." Bei just confronted Lu Bu for a few days. How could it be that Sikong worked day and night to resist Yuan Shu's 200,000 army. ”

"Liu Zhijun's words are wrong, if it weren't for the envoy Jun who dragged Lu Bu in Pei County this time. How can Lone deal with Yuan Shu in Runan with peace of mind. Cao Cao said that he looked around at the disciplined soldiers under the banner of Liu Zida, smacked his lips and sighed, "It seems that Liu Yuanjun has already trained a strong team in Xiaopei after this battle." It's really gratifying. ”

In the face of Cao Cao's praise in his words, Liu Bei secretly complained in his heart. saw him hurriedly wave his hand to Cao Cao and said, "Sikong said with a smile." These are still new recruits, untrained, untrained. ”

"Liu Yuanjun should not be humble. Recruits and veterans can still be seen. Cao Cao said and directly raised his hand and pointed at a young general beside Liu Bei and said, "Like this strong man, he is a rare warrior." I haven't seen it before, but it's a new general. ”

Liu Bei saw Cao Cao's men and horses after commenting, and the generals who came to inquire again, couldn't help but jump his eyelids, gritted his teeth and replied, "Don't hide it, this is the newly recruited general Runan." Uncle Zhi, I haven't seen Cao Sikong yet. ”

"The last general, Chen Zhi, has seen Cao Sikong." Chen Zhi walked forward and saluted without squinting.

"The real warrior is also another day, can you have the interest to fight with the evil of Lone?" Cao Cao stroked his beard and asked Chen Zhi.

Who knew that Zhang Fei, who had long been unable to see it, sneered and said, "If Cao Sikong thinks that Captain Dian is in a panic, Fei can play a few tricks with him." ”

"Lone almost forgot that General Yide was the first fierce general under Liu Yuanjun." Cao Cao was playing haha with Zhang Fei on the one hand, and on the other hand, he glanced back at Liu Bei, who was posing with a bitter gourd face. After feeling that the beating was about the same, Cao Cao immediately pulled the reins, pointed to the plum tree at the city gate, and laughed loudly, "Haha, don't talk nonsense." This ghost weather, it's so hot that you want to kill Liu Yuanjun, go into the city and drink a glass of green plum wine."
