In the afternoon, Zhang Chao finished handling some official duties and felt a little sleepy, so he took a nap in the Taishou Mansion.

I was in a daze, and I was suddenly woken up by a chaotic and noisy sound.

"Who's making noise outside!!"

was sleeping in a daze, half-asleep and half-awake, Zhang Chao's head was chaotic, he barely got up and rubbed his eyes, and walked out with an unhappy look on his face.

After walking a few steps, suddenly the door was knocked open, and one of his own guards stumbled in, saw Zhang Chao, and hurriedly shouted: "General! Oh no, Lu Bu! Lu Bu has attacked the city! ”

"Lu Bu sneaked up on the city? Say what...... What the?! Lu Bu attacked the city?! ”

Zhang Chao's eyes, which were still confused, suddenly widened.

"Yes, General, Lu Bu has attacked the city!"

"Go and defend the city! What are you doing here?! ”

Zhang Chao hurriedly rushed out.

The head is messed up and hasn't sorted out his thoughts yet, but Zhang Chao knows that what he should do now is to hold on to the city.

"The city has been breached!"

The pro-soldier shouted.

Zhang Chao was stunned on the spot, and looked back at his pro-soldier in disbelief.

"What? The city is broken? ”

"Yes! When Lu Bu led the army to raid, there were a lot of soldiers of Lu Bu's army in the city for some reason, and the city gate was quickly broken by them, and now Lu Bu's army is coming to Taishou Mansion, general! Let's go! If you don't leave, it's too late! ”

"How can this be ......"

Zhang Chao was motionless, his face was full of shock, and finally his own soldiers couldn't look at it, so he pulled Zhang Chao and rushed outside.

Rushed to the gate of the Taishou Mansion, Sima Zhao Chong, who had been transferred into the city by Zhang Chao to strengthen the defense, was leading troops to protect the Taishou Mansion, and a team of Lu Bu soldiers was attacking the Taishou Mansion.

"What the hell is going on?! Where's my brother?! ”

Zhang Chao had no idea what was going on.

"I don't know, when we reacted, Lu Bu's soldiers and horses began to attack the Taishou Mansion, they must have been mixed in before! General, you can't stay here, let's go! Dian Wei! Assault with your troops! Kill me a way out! ”

Zhao Pet gave orders to his subordinate Dian Wei.

"Yes!"

A fierce man with a big waist and a round waist with a double halberd nodded, and the urn responded angrily, and he raised his halberd.

"Follow me!"

A group of elite soldiers with the same big shoulders and round waists began to charge, and immediately caught the soldiers of Lu Bu who attacked the Taishou Mansion a little unprepared.

Fortunately, Zhang Chao was suspicious of Lu Bu before, so he selected a group of elite soldiers to enter the city to strengthen the defense, otherwise he would not even be able to rush out of the Taishou Mansion and would die here.

Watching Dian Wei wield his halberd and keep fighting, Zhang Chao gradually calmed down.

He began to realize that Zhang Miao was estimated to have been killed, and the best outcome was to be placed under house arrest by Lu Bu, and Lu Bu's wolf ambition was really aimed at Chen Liujun!

There is no other way to go now, you must fight your way out of the city!

To run to the east, you must go east, and to escape from the city gate is victory.

He didn't have time to think about more, he could only think about how to escape.

Following the escort all the way to the east of the city, he was on the march when he suddenly encountered a strong obstacle.

"Don't want to leave!"

A familiar and strange person appeared in front of Zhang Chao, blocking their way with a group of soldiers who looked very tough.

"Gao Shun!"

Zhang Chao was furious: "You group of dog thieves who disregard kindness! My brother has been so kind to you! You will take revenge! ”

"It's useless to talk too much! Trapped! Attack! ”

Gao Shun didn't say much, every sentence was quintessential, and with an order, hundreds of soldiers around him formed a military formation and stormed over, with momentum like a rainbow.

"Kill them all!"

Zhang Chao roared angrily, vowing to kill the bastard in front of him who would take revenge.

Then there was chaos.

This day is the thirteenth day of the seventh month of the third year of the first peace.

And three days ago, on July 10, Han Hao left Hanoi with his own personal troops, entered Dongjun, came to Puyang County, and found Cao Cao, the Taishou of Dongjun.

At that time, Cao Cao was arranging the summer grain harvest and tax payment, and he was so busy that he suddenly heard that a Hanoi man came to visit him, and it was a little strange, and when he asked again, his name was Han Hao.

Well, I didn't have much of an impression, but the other party said that there was something very important to tell me.

Cao Cao felt that there was nothing wrong with seeing him, so he took a little time to meet this Han Hao.

As a result, as soon as this Han Hao met, Cao Cao immediately became vigilant, maybe he was going to face a war.

Cao Cao was shocked, and hurriedly asked the reason, and when he heard what Han Hao said, he immediately beat a drum in his heart.

Lu Bu is here?

"This matter is true, this is the news that Hao learned from the Taishou Mansion in Hanoi, Taishou Zhang Jun gave Lu Bu 3,000 troops and enough grain to reach Chenliu, and Lu Bu led the army in the direction of Chenliu, Chenliu is the county of Yanzhou, Lu Bu entered Chenliu with thousands of soldiers and horses, but Guo Qingzhou didn't know, this is not normal."

Han Hao said eagerly.

What's not normal, this is too abnormal, what is Zhang Miao going to do?

Cao Cao had a good relationship with Zhang Miao in Luoyang, and after being transferred to the Taishou of Dongjun, he also exchanged letters with Zhang Miao several times, helping Guo Peng to appease Zhang Miao and tell him not to worry, etc.

But now he didn't tell anyone, so he put Lu Bu, who had thousands of soldiers and horses, into Chenliu County, what does this mean?

Cao Cao immediately sent people to the direction of Chenliu County to find out the news, and then asked people to notify Cao Ren, the captain of Yangwu, to come to meet him.

Guo Peng put Cao Ren in Dongjun, led 3,000 garrisons to guard Dongjun, and cooperated with Cao Cao to build Dongjun into an advance base.

Cao Ren soon came, looking surprised.

"Brother, has Lu Bu arrived in Chenliu County?"

"Well, I just found out about this matter, and I sent someone to investigate, but I don't know the specific situation yet."

Cao Cao frowned: "What is Lu Bu going to do?" ”

Han Hao suddenly spoke again: "Cao Fujun, before I came, I learned that Lu Bu came to Hanoi from Yuan Benchu. ”

"Primordial?"

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment: "Does this matter have anything to do with Yuan Benchu?" Do you say ......"

It's okay not to say it, as soon as Yuan Shao is mentioned, Cao Cao is not afraid to speculate on him with the worst malice.

The reason is nothing more than what he has done in the past few years that has shocked and disappointed Cao Cao.

Once upon a time, that hot-blooded young man no longer existed.

As soon as Yuan Shao was mentioned, Cao Cao couldn't help but think that Yuan Shao had something to do with this matter, and it was a matter of Yuan Shao and Lu Bu conspiring to seize Yanzhou.

Cao Cao suddenly couldn't sit still.

Cao Ren couldn't sit still, thought for a while, and said: "Brother, I'll let the army enter combat readiness first, and if something happens, I can immediately lead the army into battle." ”

"That's right."

Cao Cao nodded.

Two days later, the spies sent by Cao Cao came back to report, and the news of the report confirmed that Han Hao's warning was correct.

Lü Bu attacked Chenliu County, plundered the army, and Chenliu County was in chaos, and a large number of displaced refugees began to flee for their lives in the southwest of Dongjun.

Cao Cao gritted his teeth and slammed the table hard, and then immediately took action.

He told Cao Ren the news, and suggested that Cao Ren immediately lead 2,000 garrisons south to Changyuan County for defense and organize a defensive line, and he would also lead 1,000 garrisons and some county soldiers to Yan County to prevent Lü Bu from leading his army north to Dongjun and disturb Dongjun.

Then Cao Cao immediately began to write warrants and sent them to the county seats, ordering the whole county to enter a state of combat readiness.

After Guo Peng was stationed in Qingzhou, he set a rule for combat readiness, not only for the army, but also for the counties.

In peacetime, there are not many garrisons in the counties, only hundreds of county soldiers, and the combat power is limited, but once it enters the state of combat readiness, through the order of the county guard, the counties can open their arsenals and recruit strong men to join the army temporarily to protect the most important cities.

At the same time, the operation of clearing the field with strong walls was carried out, and the enemy was not given the opportunity to supply on the spot.

The county commander and the county commander must lead the recruited strong men to guard the city, not let the city be lost, block the enemy's troops, and wait for the army to come to help.

At the same time, Cao Cao immediately sent 600 li of expedited horses to Luxian County, told Guo Peng the news, and asked Guo Peng to lead the army to help.

He was very worried, this matter was not only Lu Bu's participation alone, but also Yuan Shao's participation!

In case Yuan Shao sneaks up on Dongjun from behind......

Cao Cao suddenly made a difficulty, and he didn't know whether he should stay in Puyang or go to Yan County to fortify.

Han Hao noticed Cao Cao's doubts, so Mao recommended himself, asked to be a minister, and led the army to Yan County to fortify.
