Chapter 525: The Betrayal of Relatives
Chen Gong looked at the two people who were tied up and taken away, and spoke to the guards beside him again: "The Wang family is conspiring against Wei Xu, you go quickly to control it, and wait for the lord to come back and send it down." ”
"Yes!" The guards hesitated slightly, but answered anyway.
Looking at the figure of everyone leaving, Chen Gong's figure was slightly gloomy, and he turned to look at the night sky, as if he could see the rocket arrow flying across the sky. He could have prevented this from happening, but for some reason, he didn't, and let the arrow go through the sky.
Not only Wei Xu and Cao Cao saw this arrow, but Lu Bu, who was getting up and heading to the northern city wall, also saw this scene, and Lu Bu's face suddenly became even more ugly.
Chen Gong acted rigorously, and what the spies sent to say must have been known only to Chen Gong and the people around him at that time. Chen Gong does everything without leakage, it is definitely impossible to leak secrets, so the person who leaked the secret is likely to be...
Lu Bu took a deep breath, temporarily suppressed all this in his heart, and went towards the north city wall even more angrily.
And Wei Xu and the others are not people who sit still, when they saw the fire arrow code in the air, they immediately understood that the matter had been revealed. The three people, who had no way to retreat, retreated directly to their respective defense lines, and ordered the guards to open the city gates, ready to welcome Cao Cao's army into it. On the other hand, they quickly gathered the teams they could control, formed a military formation, and prepared to wait for Lu Bu, stick to the city, and hold on until Cao Cao entered the city.
Lu Bu came to the north city wall, and saw that the lights on the north city wall were bright, and countless soldiers lined up in the army, facing him with bows and arrows, and the right hand holding Fang Tian's halberd had faintly turned white because he was too hard. Although he didn't see the figure of the person he once trusted the most, Lu Bu knew that the other party must be nested in this group of soldiers.
"Why do you oppose me?" Looking at the soldiers on the city wall who were slightly panicked and frightened but turned against each other, Lu Bu said with a hideous face.
Everyone was silent, afraid to speak. Facing Lu Bu, the weapons in the hands of many soldiers were almost unable to grasp.
Feeling the panic of the soldiers around him, Wei Xu, who was hiding behind him because of timidity, tightened his heart, and said angrily with courage: "Lu Bu, you are now a turtle in the urn. Cao Gong will lead the army to come soon, why don't you surrender soon? If you surrender now, I can still ask Cao Gong to spare your life. ”
When Lu Bu heard this familiar voice, he smiled fiercely: "Okay! It's my brother-in-law, it's good that I've always been reusing your cronies! ”
When the surrounding soldiers heard this, they all unconsciously glanced at Wei Xu strangely.
Feeling the disdainful gaze of the soldiers around him, Wei Xu said angrily: "You have no talent and no virtue, but you are just a martial artist, not enough to be the master of one party, even if I have a relationship with you, today I have to abandon my small favor and seek righteousness, and kill my relatives for the righteousness of the people of Qingzhou!" ”
Such a shameless act can be said to be so high-sounding, Wei Xu's cheekiness can almost be compared with Cao Cao and Liu Bei. I almost didn't say that my wife was raised. Of course, one of Lu Bu's wives is his sister, and he should naturally raise her as long as he still has a little conscience.
Hearing Wei Xu's ridiculous reason, Lu Bu asked with a slight mockery on the corner of his mouth, "Do you all think like this?" ”
Many soldiers were silent, Wei Xu saw this and hurriedly looked sideways at Song Xian and Hou Cheng, the two of them were now on the thief ship, unable to extricate themselves, and gritted their teeth and said in unison.
"Not bad! Although you are the number one military general in the world and invincible, you are not a master. Fighting a war is based only on personal bravery, and there is no sympathy for our soldiers and soldiers. Now that Huangxian County is embattled, our life and death are all in Cao Gong's thoughts, why should I accompany you to the funeral? Song Xian scolded angrily. He has been holding back these words for a long time, whether it is Lu Bu's performance during this time, regardless of the drunkenness of his corporaries, or the previous rewards and punishments, he is very angry.
Although he is not a top general, he is also strong and has made countless achievements, what is the result? is not as high as Wei Xu's position as an incompetent villain who is greedy for money and has not made an indifference. How can this convince them?
Hou Cheng also shouted angrily when he heard this: "Yes! You are arrogant and lascivious, cruel and unkind, virtuous, unclear rewards and punishments, nepotism, and pampering villains, and now you are dry bones in the grave, what if we are the opposite? Most of the troops in Huangxian County are in our hands, and Cao Gong will not arrive soon, what can you do? Why don't you surrender on your knees? ”
As soon as the two of them said this, many soldiers around them were in high spirits and regained their morale. Wei Xu looked at Hou Cheng with dissatisfaction. Regarding Hou Cheng's truths confided in a hurry, he, a person who was "injured by mistake", was unhappy. Lu Bu is nepotistic and favors villains, is this scolding Lu Bu or scolding him as a villain?
Although he was resentful of Hou Cheng in his heart, under the current situation, it was not the time for infighting, so Wei Xu could only pinch his nose and admit it, pretending not to hear.
Seeing that all the soldiers under his command were excited, and his heart was full of dissatisfaction with himself, Lu Bu's eyes were full of disbelief. He originally thought that most of these soldiers were coerced by Wei Xu to rebel, and as long as he raised his arms and shouted, he could rein in the hearts of the army, but he didn't expect these people to be so detached from him.
Is he really so unbearable as a lord?
Lu Bu suddenly asked himself. Most of these soldiers were soldiers recruited by him in Qingzhou, but there were also some brothers who followed him all the way from Qingzhou. The former betrayed even the latter. Thinking back to what he did on weekdays, and then thinking about what Chen Gong said on weekdays, Lu Bu suddenly knew a little in his heart, maybe he was really not the material for the master.
Soon, shaking off these distracting thoughts, Lu Bu danced the Fang Tian Painting Halberd in his hand, and heavily split a huge crack on the ground in front of him. Then he said in a deep voice: "I will give you one last chance, and now stand on my side, I will definitely not blame the past." Otherwise..."
When Wei Xu heard this, he immediately shouted: "Don't listen to Lu Bu's lies, this guy is narrow-minded and will be revenged, how can he not be blamed in the past?" I'm afraid that in the future, I will be killed by this fight along with my family, and there is no way to live! ”
The soldiers who were originally coerced and slightly shaken thought about Lu Bu's plain character, and instantly extinguished the thought of standing over, raised the weapons in their hands together, and waited for the battle.
Seeing that none of them stood up on the other side, and glared at their soldiers one after another, Lu Bu smiled fiercely: "Okay! I hope you don't regret it in the future! ”
Then with a cold snort, Lu Bu turned around and left.
The third general of Wei Xu was entangled with more than 20,000 soldiers, and he was not an opponent at all under the suppression of the army's cloud qi, let alone killing Wei Xu, I am afraid it was impossible to even rush in front of Wei Xu. Instead of wasting time here, it is better to go back as soon as possible to reorganize the troops and horses and prepare to rush out of Huang County, after all, the Cao army has always been known for its rapid marching, and I am afraid that it will arrive soon. In this kind of situation where most of the defenders rebelled, he could no longer hold Huangxian, so it was better to retreat as soon as possible. Otherwise, once Cao Jun surrounds him, he will really be unable to fly.
