The banquet was staggered, and everyone pushed the cup and changed the lamp for a while, because most of them were like-minded young people, so the atmosphere quickly became lively, and this banquet was eaten until late at night.

Yuan Shao was already very drunk, and was taken back to the house to rest by his subordinates. The rest of the guests also left the table one by one, Lu Bu drank a lot of wine, although he drank more than ten jars of wine, but his consciousness was still relatively sober, Tian Feng was a literati, although he was good at wine, but compared to young people, it was dwarfed by Lu Bu and Zhang He, who was not a drop of wine, and the two of them supported him and prepared to return to the post house.

At this time, I suddenly heard someone next to me beckoning: "Feng Xian, where is Feng Xian going?" ”

Lu Bu turned his head and saw that it was Cao Cao Cao Mengde, at this time he was also swaying, barely standing with the support of the two generals beside him, and in the banquet, Lu Bu learned that these two were the brothers of Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan.

Lu Bu handed Tian Feng to Zhang He, hugged his fists and said, "Brother Meng De, junior brother is ready to go back to the post house." ”

"Feng Xian, I see that you are not driving, you and I are also on the way, otherwise we will be brothers." Cao Cao greeted and waited for the carriage.

Lu Bu was not a polite person, and he boarded Cao Cao's carriage after saying "bother", and at the same time took Tian Feng, who was almost unknown, and Cao Cao's subordinates also gave a horse to Zhang He.

It can be seen that Cao Cao is a person who knows how to enjoy, and the carriage is quite spacious, otherwise it really can't sit three people, but for a person of Lu Bu's stature, it is still a little low.

After getting into the carriage, Cao Cao was sitting precariously, although his face was red, but his eyes were clear, and he was drunk.

Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, and after settling down Tian Feng, he found a comfortable position and sat down, and quipped: "Haha, it seems that Brother Ben Chu is really right, Brother Meng De, you are too treacherous, and you are actually pretending to be drunk." ”

After being exposed by Lu Bu, Cao Cao was not annoyed, and replied with a smile: "Everyone is drunk and I am sober, isn't that a big scene?" ”

Lu Bu replied meaningfully: "But the whole world is turbid. ”

Cao Cao raised his voice and laughed: "Hahaha, Fengxian has a good reputation, I don't know how many Qingming people in the world are, and I, Cao Mengde, am only one of them." I heard Brother Bo say that he has accepted you as a disciple? ”

"Everyone Cai is the family teacher." Lu Bu hurriedly bowed his hand to the disciple and saluted.

Cai Yong and Cao Cao have long been friends, the two were officials in the same dynasty, and they both hated and hated the eunuchs in power, and at the same time the two had similar interests, so they formed a deep friendship, which is why in history, Cao Cao was willing to exchange the golden wall for Cai Wenji. Therefore, as Cai Yong's disciple, Lu Bu can only give Cao Cao the gift of a disciple.

Cao Cao said indifferently: "Brother Fengxian, you and I are both people in the army, don't worry about those red tapes." You and I, me and your master, let's talk about each other. ”

Lu Bu stubbornly replied: "The ceremony cannot be abolished, the previous disciples did not know, and they still hope to atone for their sins." ”

Seeing Lu Bu's serious appearance, Cao Cao was relieved that his friend had such an excellent disciple but also felt a headache, Gai Ying himself was an informal person, and what Lu Bu said was also right, and after a little thought, he said: "In this way, if your master is present, then you treat me as a teacher, on the contrary, you and I are commensurate with brothers." Seeing that Lu Bu wanted to refute, Cao Cao interrupted: "It's settled." ”

Lu Bu had no choice but to get off the donkey and say, "No." ”

Then Cao Cao asked about some of the situations after Cai Yong arrived in Shuofang, and Lu Bu also answered them one by one.

Just as the two were talking happily, in a dark corner of the road ahead, several men in black were sneakily planning something.

The man in black, who was surrounded in the middle, said to the other, "How's it going?" His voice was a little shrill and thin.

The latter replied: "After the banquet was over, the three of them were ready to walk, but they were picked up by Cao Cao in the carriage. ”

"Cao Cao? Hmph, I didn't expect these two people to get together, so I will liquidate and pull them down together today. The man in black at the head obviously has a lot of resentment towards Cao Cao, and he gritted his teeth when he talked about Cao Cao.

At this time, another man in black opened his mouth and said, "Won't this involve a bit of a big deal?" ”

The black-clothed man at the head replied hatefully: "I'm afraid that he will do something, and there will be miscellaneous families when the sky falls, not to mention who this matter is for today, think about it clearly." As he spoke, he stared at the man in black who had just spoken.

The man in black who asked the question was obviously a little hairy by his fierce eyes, and lowered his head and stopped talking.

Seeing that no one was objecting, the man in black at the head nodded with satisfaction and said in a deep voice: "That's it, according to the original plan, let's go and prepare separately." That Cao Cao and Lu Bu drank a lot, but they should not be taken lightly, and there are also the two brothers of Xiahou, as for the military general under Lu Bu, don't let it go, they all understand. ”

After the rest of the black-clothed people were ordered to leave, the black-clothed people led by him said in a low voice: "Cao Cao, hum, there is a way in heaven if you don't go, now you can avenge my uncle's revenge!" ”

Just when the men in black had just dispersed, they didn't notice that not far behind them, there was a vague black shadow quietly watching them.

At this time, Lu Bu and the others were still at a loss, and when the two of them were talking, suddenly a low voice came from outside the carriage, but it was Xiahoudun who said: "Meng De, the situation is a little wrong. ”

The two awake people in the carriage closed their mouths at the same time. Xiahoudun continued: "We are surrounded, and the number of the other party should not be much, dozens of people, but they are not weak. ”

Cao Cao nodded, lowered his voice and said, "Well, I know, be careful." Then he turned his head and laughed loudly while glancing at Lu Bu: "Haha, I didn't expect Brother Fengxian to be so funny." This bitter side of the house comes out of your mouth as if it has become a beautiful difference! ”

Lu Bu then smiled and said: "Haha, it's just fun in the bitterness, if you really want to say that it's hard, then you have to talk about General Zhang outside, I've been cautious, it's really my right-hand man." While secretly reminding Zhang He, he also took out the weapon he carried, because he was here to participate in the banquet, he did not bring the heavenly halberd, only a portable sword. At the same time, he also took off the cloak he was wearing outside and protected Tian Feng's body.

Seeing that Lu Bu was so sympathetic to his subordinates, Cao Cao nodded while spreading the cotton pad in the carriage on Tian Feng's body, so as not to be injured by the stray arrow hidden weapon for a while.

Just after everyone was ready, there was a dense jingling sound outside, and occasionally a few arrows were shot into the carriage, Lu Bu protected himself and Tian Feng, and was relieved to see that Tian Feng was not injured.

At this time, Xiahou Xuan's majestic voice came from outside: "Where is the thief?" Hurry up and show up, and dare to commit murder in Kyoto? ”

Lu Bu and Cao Cao also walked outside the carriage, only to see the Xiahou brothers and Zhang He standing side by side in front of the carriage, and several other entourages also drew their blades to protect the four sides of the carriage.

Not far ahead, there were more than a dozen people in black night clothes, many of whom were still holding standard longbows in their hands, and at the same time, there were also more than a dozen black-clothed people scattered in the other three directions, with a total of about fifty.

The black-clothed man led by him didn't answer, and after seeing Cao Cao and the two get out of the carriage, he waved his hand again, and more than 20 black-clothed people carrying longbows opened their bows and arrows at the same time, and shot out the arrows in their hands in an instant, and the arrows shot took care of almost everyone, without the slightest waste and mess.

Cao Cao cursed in a low voice, "Damn, what's going on? How can there be such a well-trained army, is it possible? ”

Xiahoudun retreated to Cao Cao while resisting the flying arrows and said, "Meng De, let's retreat to a safe place first." ”

"Okay." Cao Cao nodded, and saw Lu Bu carrying Tian Feng and walking towards a shop next to him.

The rest of the people retreated while fighting, and retreated together to the front of this shop, which was a two-story building, and a shed stretched out in front of the shop, and Cao Cao and the others hid in the shed, so that only the front would be hit by bows and arrows.

The men in black also gradually surrounded them, and after seeing that it was difficult to make a bow and arrow, the leader stopped his subordinates from continuing to shoot arrows.

Only 2 of Cao Cao's followers were injured in the first few rounds of attacks, but they were killed not long after, and Xiahoudun checked and found that the arrows were fed with poison.

was inexplicably attacked, and now there were casualties, which made Xiahoudun furious, and without Cao Cao's consent, he rushed towards the man in black single-handedly.

Seeing this, Xiahou Yuan threw away the spear in his hand and picked up the longbow he was best at to cover for Xiahoudun.

Lu Bu also ordered Zhang He to protect Cao Cao, Tian Feng and others, and he grabbed a batch of war horses and rushed out with Xiahoudun.

The leader of the men in black did not panic, and when he saw the two rushing towards him, he waved his backhand, and then most of the men in black quickly moved forward, and in an instant, they lined up in a formation, the first row held a knife, the second row stretched out a spear from the shoulder of the first row, and the third row continued to shoot with bows and arrows. The remaining 5 or 6 men in black retreated.

Xiahoudun rushed forward, the spear in his hand was as fast as lightning, and the arrows in front of him were fired down one by one, and the speed did not decrease at all, rushing towards the enemy formation. Lu Bu started slowly, and the war horse under his crotch was not as good as Xiahoudun, so he simply followed him, and only needed to dial the arrows from the top of his head.

Dozens of zhang distance is fleeting, this group of black-clothed people can be said to be well-trained, but their archers have not waited for the second round of shooting, Xiahoudun has already rushed to the front, at this time in the military formation Xiahoudun in front of the two axe hands suddenly fell to the ground, it turned out that Xiahouyuan in the rear with one stone and two eagles, which also made a small gap in the strict military formation, Xiahoudun roared excitedly, the spear in his hand swept, sweeping the enemy in front of him, and the thin three-layer defense line was penetrated by Xiahoudun in only one round.

Lu Bu also followed at this time, his left hand swung away the spear, his right hand quickly reached out and grabbed a spear, exhaled and said, "Get up." "On the horse, he raised one of the spearmen with one right hand, and then took advantage of the defense line to grasp the spear and threw the spearman out alive, just hitting the other spears, and seeing that he would not survive.

Xiahoudun turned around just in time to see Lu Bu with great might, and said with a proud smile in his mouth: "General Lu is really brave, see that someone is here to help you!" With a slap, the war horse actually rushed over again.

Xiahoudun and Lu Bu are both peerless generals with invincible bravery, although they are surrounded by these dozens of people, they rush left and right like a leisurely stroll, plus there are archers in the distance Xiahou Yuan shoots one or two arrows from time to time to relieve the siege for the two, but they kill the black-clothed people who surround them bitterly.

After the formation of the man in black was broken up, he quickly changed his tactics and surrounded the two. At this time, the leader of the men in black in the distance waved his hand again, and the men in black next to him rushed over with four people.
