Chapter 87: The White Gate Tower

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Wang Fuzhi's "Reading Through the Commentary" once sighed: Guoheng mourns with weakness, and only Han dies with strength!

In the city of Xiapi, the soldiers of the two armies who fought perfectly interpreted the death of this Han in the strong, Gao Shun who held the sword and raised the sword at the mouth of the ruins shouted and fought wildly, on the street, with a few hundred horsemen and Zhou iron horses, Zhang Liao, who was wearing iron armor, really achieved seven in and seven out, and killed the iron armor to drain blood, and the flesh and blood of the gun blade were blurred.

There are also Danyang soldiers who drill out from time to time in the burnt and scorched buildings, they are holding the most rudimentary weapons, wearing the lightest armor and even cloth clothes, but they are shouting and roaring, fighting with the heavy armored soldiers of the Cao army without fear of death, and even some rush forward regardless of it, and are pierced by the spears of the Cao army, and they also have to roll in the snowdrift with the other party.

But in the same way, Cao Jun also moved forward bravely, a series of generals such as Xiahoudun, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Li Dian, Lejin and Cao Chun all took the lead, cloaked in perseverance, rushed to the front line of the whole army with a shield, and rushed forward with gritted teeth in the face of open guns and hidden arrows that could kill people at any time.

In this era, there is no enemy with a mace, and I have the sorrow of the heavenly spirit cover! Some are just big revanchism if you slash me, and I will return the sword to you! Some only have arrogant bones that run through the sky!

As Wang Hou expected, even at this point, Xiapi City is still not easy to fight! Almost at the cost of first-class blood, Cao's army broke through from the west gate to the east with difficulty.

However, despite the difficulties, Cao Jun still rushed forward!

In the evening, when Wang Hou was preparing dinner, most of the Xicheng, Nancheng, and Beicheng were already under the control of Cao's army, and only Dongcheng, relying on Lu Bu's tall and sturdy city in Xuzhou Mufu, the remnants of LΓΌ Jun were still holding on, and it seemed that they were still waiting for a miracle to happen.

However, Mr. Cao came to the speed of light to slap his face, when he launched an attack in the morning, he had shouted that he would never withdraw his troops in Xiapi, but seeing that it was getting late, Cao Cao still did not impulsively continue to attack but gathered his soldiers and horses to a few streets near Xiapi Dongcheng, and stationed them on the spot to eat and spend the night, which is definitely a wise choice, after all, it is now a victory in hand, and Lu Bu, who is still fighting with the trapped beast, is dead, in case something goes wrong, the good situation will come to naught, it is better to let the sergeants repair for a night, Recharge your energy and eat your stomach, and you will have another battle tomorrow.

Moreover, compared with the battle of Cao Lu Xuzhou in history, the Cao army with Wang Hou's help in the battle entered Xiapi City a month and a half earlier than in history, and the "international pressure" faced by Cao Cao was far less than that of another time and space!

However, this is an opportunity for Zhao Yun, because tomorrow, Wang Hou's troops will also be escorted back to the city, and he will have a chance to fight with Lu Bu for a while!

However, the plan is far from changing as fast! This night, Zhao Yun didn't even sleep, and kept reviewing the marksmanship from Tong Yuan, a master of the late Han Dynasty, looking for a sense of feeling, but early the next morning, when Zhao Yun adjusted to the best state and followed Wang Hou into the city with full of fighting spirit, the last fortress in Xiapi City surrendered without a fight!

It's still Chen Dengli's work! At the end of the mountain, Hou Cheng, Song Xian, and Wei Xu, the three anti-bone boys, under the instigation of the spies sent in by Chen Deng before, finally made a move.

Defeated and left with nothing at this moment, it is a vivid and incisive withdrawal, the originally flying and domineering Lu Bu was tied up like a zongzi, and he was still full of unconvinced, panting like a cow struggling fiercely, and the well-known Mrs. Ren was also tied with a rope, but compared to her husband's irritability, with her hands hanging high on her back, Mrs. Ren walked very indifferently, and even had no expression on her face with light makeup, as if she was walking in a small garden in the past.

Lu Bu is also lustful, there are more than 20 concubines in his concubines, but I don't know if he has done too much in this life for his capricious lack of morality, except for the captured Lu Ji, he has no children, compared with Mrs. Ren, these women are far behind, crying and wiping tears, if it weren't for the hands tied, it is estimated that they would have to hug each other and cry together.

The former was almost wiped out in yesterday's fierce battle and refused to surrender, while the latter was a civilian official who had no power to fight back and was directly captured. This Zhao Yun watched Lu Bu leave as if he watched his goddess enter the hotel hand in hand with other men, passing by Wang Hou's side, Chen Gong also stopped, shook his head with emotion, and then continued to walk out with heavy steps.

But there is an accident in this, that is Zhang Liao!

Although he did not participate in the mutiny, he came out with his subordinates to surrender after the mutiny captured Lu Bu!

Although Zhang Liao surrendered to Cao Cao in the Battle of Xuzhou in history, but from the last time he went to Xuzhou to this time in the Battle of Xiapi, Wang Hou always had an illusion, according to what he saw and understood Zhang Liao's character, this person would definitely fight for Lu Bu until the last moment, and Wang Hou was really surprised to see him follow Wei Xu, Song Xian and others with empty hands.

It seemed that he also felt Wang Hou's surprise, and a strong look of shame appeared on his face, and the first general Wang Hou saw in Xuzhou lowered his head deeply.

This battle was completely bankrupt, Lu Bu had 13,000 soldiers and horses, only more than 8,000 were left at this time, and he had already done his part, most of the Lu army surrendered with his generals, laid down his arms, and was driven out of the city in frustration.

But just when Wang Hou was watching the excitement here, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves at the gate of the city.

"The king's transfer envoy, the prime minister has ordered you to go to the East City Gate as soon as possible!"

"Oh? This official knows! ”

…………

When the city wall was built in Xiapi City, a layer of paint that should be white ash was smeared on the wall, and the city wall was painted white to distinguish it from other cities, but at this time, the west city gate no longer existed, and the south and north cities were also smoked black under the attack of red-hot coals, and only the east city gate still retained a rare snow white.

At this time, Cao Cao was also in the posture of a victor, looking at Xiapi City, which had been beaten into ruins, with his hands behind his back facing the fluttering snow, beside him, the whole war did not make any effort, Liu Bei, who was infinitely close to the state of playing soy sauce, stood on the side with the two brothers Guan Zhang, Liu Huangshu was as low as always, and Zhang Fei still had bandages on his legs, but this time Guan Yu Guan Erye was obviously a little absent-minded, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

On the other hand, Cheng Yu, Guo Jia, Yang Xiu, Mao Jiao and other civil officials, and Xiahoudun, Cao Ren, Li Dian, Le Jin and other military attachΓ©s, each face was filled with the joy of victory.

The hard war of the cold winter is finally over, and now is the time to dispose of the prisoners of war and divide the spoils, the Han Dynasty people are far less hypocritical than the later Song and Ming literati, and they have profits to share the spoils, why are they not happy?

Cao Cao is really serious to Wang Hou now, he took the only horse boy Zhao Yun hurriedly climbed the city gate building and just showed his face, pointing at him, Cao Cao laughed and stroked his palm, and said to Liu Bei beside him as if he was showing off.

"Tuqiu, how can my Xiao be regarded as coming!"

"Tuqiu, come this way! Sit beside me! ”

"Prime Minister Xie!"

This attention is simply beyond the whole army, but Wang Hou couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, barely maintained a respectful appearance, bowed heavily and thanked him, and then led Zhao Yun to Cao Cao's side and sat down.

is still the same sentence, people are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong, he wandered to Cao Cao's side, even if Guo Jia showed a slightly sour look on his face, that look signaled that Wang Hou had to treat him back, as for Yang Xiu, Wang Lang and other family officials, they were originally Wang Hou's political enemies, and their eyes were about to fly out with jealousy at this time.

And sitting next to Cao Cao, another thing like Wang Hou's urine, but no matter what, came again not long after!

It's really important! It wasn't until he came that Cao Cao officially started the spoils sharing conference, waving his sleeves and shouting.

"Come on! With a high thief! ”

Yesterday, Gao Shun fell into the camp of eight hundred heroes, blocking the Cao army Cao Hong, Xiahou Dan, Li Dian three tens of thousands of soldiers to attack for a full hour, until the south gate guard Qin Yilu surrendered in fear, let Cao Chun tiger and leopard ride into the city, from the back to break Gao Shun, this opened the road, his men, killed at least 11,200 Cao Jun killed and injured Cao Jun, so Cao Cao was particularly impressed with him, the first to carry him up.

The beautiful little girl was tied up with five flowers and had to hold her head high, the pear blossoms with the rain were attractive, a big man was tied up in a ball, it was nothing to look at, and in Wang Hou's opinion, it was even a little spicy eyes, but Mr. Cao's taste was so peculiar.

Seeing Gao Shun, a big man with a Chinese character face, being tied up and kneeling on the ground, Cao Cao immediately became extremely excited, with a serious and mighty look on his face, but his arms trembled excitedly, his index finger and ring finger were together, and the halberd pointed to the front of Gao Shun's head, and his voice was hurried and excited.

"Gao Shun! I ask you! Lu thief perverse, tyrannical expropriation, the people in the territory do not talk about life, but also colluded with the traitor Yuan Shu, who called the emperor, to accommodate Zang Ba and other Taishan thieves, which can be called the heinous, this minister is ordered to beg the thief, lead the three armies of righteous soldiers, hang the people and cut down the crime! It is the army of justice, how can you help the evil to resist, resist the heavenly army, and kill the soldiers of our heavenly army! ”

"What do you say?"

Don't look at the momentum of these words, in fact, Cao Cao has left the way of life to Gao Shun.

In this era, it is actually quite common to surrender to the general or vote for another master, just like the five good generals of the Wei State, Yu Ban was Bao Xin's subordinate in the early days, and was recommended to Cao Cao by Wang Lang after surrendering Wang Lang, Zhang Liao needless to say, Zhang He is one of the four court pillars in Hebei, the battle of Guandu fell to Cao Cao, Xu Huang is also, which of the warlords in Guanzhong, if I remember correctly, at this time it should have surrendered Zhong Xuan, and then was recommended to Cao Cao on the way.

The five tiger generals of Shu Han are similar, Huang Hansheng, Liu Zhang's generals, Zhao Zilong next to Wang Hou, Gongsun Zan and Liu Bei eyebrows, Ma Chao first defected to Zhang Lu, and then turned his back on Zhang Lutou's Liu Bei, as for Guan Yu, don't forget that Guan Erye, the incarnation of loyalty, also voted for Cao Cao, as for what to descend to Han and not to descend to Cao, the three chapters of the law are artistic processing in the interpretation or really something, that is, the benevolent see the benevolent and the wise see the wise!

Now Gao Shun is too, as long as he is willing to admit his mistake, show his attitude, and express his determination to be honest with Prime Minister Cao, Cao Cao can not only forgive him, but also estimate that he is at least in the position of a lieutenant general.

However! Gao Shun was as upright as the trap camp he led, lonely and high, even if he was tied up and kneeling on the ground, he still held his head high coldly, and was silent for a few seconds, and then he snorted softly with a sense of arrogance and disdain.

"I just want to die quickly!"

I thought that the surrender that was captured was choked there, but for a few seconds, Cao Cao waved his hand angrily: "This is the fulfillment of your loyalty, come on!" Push it down and behead it for public display! ”

Gao Shun is a general, but no matter how talented he is, it is also a scourge not to use it for himself, and his arrogant attitude has greatly dampened Cao Cao's face as a victor, so watching a few Cao soldiers push him down the city tower, Wang Hou is also helpless, he can only sigh, there is no more camp in the world!

Maybe it was because he saw through the warlords of the late Han Dynasty like Lu Bu and Cao Cao, Gao Shun chose a name of loyalty and left this world, but the next one to be brought up, even Cao Cao couldn't help but tremble.

Chen Gong!

Different from the deduction, Chen Gong is not a friend of distress who accompanied Cao Cao to flee together, he even went one step further, after the princes of the Eighteenth Road asked Dong Zhuo, it was Chen Gong who planned to start a business for him, and successively stabilized Yanzhou, and then helped him defeat the Qingzhou Yellow Turban, which was known as one million, in the same situation, Yuan Shao fought the Black Mountain thieves, but he fought for several years, which can be seen.

But it was such a business partner, but he betrayed Cao Cao when he went to Xuzhou to find Tao Qian to avenge his father, and the pain he caused to Cao Cao was no less than Zhang Miao.

But the complexity and nostalgia of Cao Cao's personality were undoubtedly revealed at this time, when Wang Hou was sitting and eating melons, watching Chen Gong being pushed up, his body trembled, Cao Cao shook a few times, and stood up tremblingly.

"Gongtai!"

The old boss for a long time, seeing Cao Cao ushering in, even Chen Gong, who was accustomed to a rigid face, couldn't help but sigh and bow slightly.

"Meet Cao Gong!"

"Back then! Why did you ...... back then, what is not as good as that Lu Bu? Why bother with the public station? ”

The trembling voice is quite similar to the scene where the second male number asks the heroine in Qiong Yao's play, but this is probably also a roar buried in Cao Cao's heart for I don't know how many years, and in his excited trembling, Cao Cao almost roared out.

However, this Chen Gong is also the same as the heroine in Qiong Yao's play, holding her head high and responding to the betrayal with confidence.

"Cao Gong is called benevolent and virtuous, leading everyone to revive the Han Dynasty, why is he angry because of his own anger, indiscriminately killing scholars, cronyism, unauthorized power, and oppression of good and righteous? Cao Gong: What is the difference between you and Dong Zhuo back then? ”

These words really poked at Cao Cao's sore spot, it was Qin who lost his deer back then, and now Han lost his deer, who has no heart to replace the heroes in the world?

But even so, after a moment of silence, Cao Cao still gave one last chance in a dull manner.

"There are still old mothers and wives alive in the public platform, don't you cherish your life for them?"

"How can a truly virtuous person be weakened by a wife or a child? Chen Gong's decision is determined, and I hope that Cao Gong will be successful! ”

The words have already been said for this part, and Cao Cao was in a car, looking at Chen Gong's appearance of bending down and bowing, Cao Cao finally waved his hand helplessly.

"Cao said goodbye to the public platform! Come and send the public platform down, for the public platform, leave a whole corpse! ”

Standing up straight, in Cao Cao's still memorable eyes, Chen Gong walked down the White Gate Tower without looking back, seeing him leave, Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh deeply, but in the regret of his expression, it was mixed with a heartfelt relaxation, and in the next second, when the watermelon skin held by Wang Hou was about to gnaw white, Cao Cao suddenly had a dull voice and shouted heavily.

"Take Lu Bu!"

The most important play of the day in Baimenlou is here!
