After the army occupied Benhan, Lu Bu stayed in the Dog Evil Imperial City for a whole week, no, now it should be called the Dog Evil City, giving orders to the officials under his tent, and doing the work of consolidating his rule over Benhan.

Just like when Mahan was occupied, it was very easy for a large army to occupy the entire territory of Mahan, but it was not easy to stabilize after occupying it!

Fortunately, Lu Bu subdued Guo Liang, a Benhan, and Guo Liang had a certain political position in Benhan, helping Lu Bu to do the work of stabilizing Benhan, plus there was also the deterrence of 3,000 foot cavalry, after bloodily killing some diehards who did not accept Lu Bu's rule, the Benhan people slowly recognized Lu Bu as their new king of Benhan!

At the same time, like Ma Han, Lu Bu also reduced the taxes of the poor people, as long as he paid a very low tax to Lu Bu every year, so that these poor people could gradually become rich, at least, they would not have a meal without a meal, and live a precarious life.

Lu Bu's good deed immediately won the cheers and love of the poor people of Benhan.

You must know that no king of Benhan has been able to reduce their extremely heavy taxes like Lu Bu before, and understand the hardships of their lives, so that the previous king of Benhan did not care about the life or death of these poor people!

If they don't have a good harvest and can't pay their taxes because of the weather, the soldiers who come to collect taxes will beat and scold them, and then they will put them in dark cells, and they will release them when the taxes are paid!

But it is precisely because of their bad harvest that they can't pay their taxes, so where do they go to get taxes for a while? I borrowed from others, but these poor people know poor people like them, and others have to pay heavy taxes because of the weather, and they have to pay heavy taxes because of the bad harvest, and others are all worried, how can they lend you surplus grain?!

The jailers did not care about the lives of the poor people who could not afford to pay the heavy taxes and were imprisoned in their cells, and they did not even bother to give them food, which is why many people were starved to death in their cells every year, which was very miserable!

The appearance of Lü Bu made these poor people full of hope for their future lives, and they regarded Lü Bu as their reborn parents, and even more, they carved out Lü Bu's statue and worshiped it at home, worshipping it like a god every day.

After stabilizing Benhan, Lu Bu plans to return to Xingba City, this time to conquer Benhan, plus the time to hurry, it took Lu Bu almost half a month, so that Lu Bu, who is very Gu Jia, misses his three wives and concubines and Lu Lingqi's daughter very much.

But on the day that Lu Bu returned to Xingba City, when he was about to rush to Xingba City, suddenly a post envoy who came from the north sent a bamboo slip and handed it to Lu Bu.

This bamboo slip was written by Chen Gong.

When Lu Bu opened the bamboo slip and saw what was written inside, Lu Bu's brows suddenly frowned.

The conquest of Chenhan, with the strategy of Chen Gong, coupled with Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, these generals who can fight well, led by the killing army, at first it was relatively easy to conquer Chenhan, and even some of the lords of the city in Chenhan saw that Lu Bu's army was too sharp and did not need to attack, so they surrendered and begged for their lives!

However, when the expedition arrived in the Imperial City of Chenhan, Chen Gong and Zhang Liao encountered a great setback!

invested a huge number of troops, but it couldn't capture the Chenhan Imperial City, which had few troops, and let Lu Bu's army lose thousands of troops!

For Lu Bu, who already did not have many troops, he lost thousands of troops all of a sudden, which made Lu Bu extremely distressed.

However, Lu Bu didn't blame Chen Gong and Zhang Liao, because Lu Bu knew their ability and couldn't capture the Chenhan Imperial City, and there must be a master in it who was instructing the Chenhan soldiers to defend the city!

So, Lu Bu dispelled the idea of going back to Xingba City today, turned his horse's head, and led a thousand wolf horsemen from Bingzhou and three hundred personal soldiers under the command of Zhou Cang to the north, and galloped towards the direction of Chenhan Imperial City.

As for Guo Liang, Liao Hua, and Pei Yuanshao, they were left behind by Lu Bu and asked them to command 2,000 cavalry, and then select 3,000 strong soldiers from the surrendered Benhan soldiers to be stationed in Benhan.

After all, Benhan has only been occupied by Lu Bu not long ago, and it is inevitable that there will be some lawbreakers who will make waves after Lu Bu leaves, trying to disturb Benhan, which Lu Bu has gradually stabilized!

Hurry up, Lu Bu and the others quickly rushed to the outside of the Chenhan Imperial City, and Chen Gong, Zhang Liao and others, who had already received the news, had already greeted Lu Bu's arrival outside the camp tent, and then welcomed them back to their camp tent.

Walking into the camp, Lu Bu, as their lord, naturally sat unceremoniously at the top, as for Chen Gong, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Cao Bao, and Zang Ba, they sat on the left and right!

Zhou Cang, the commander of the pro-army, stood behind Lu Bu with a long sword in his hand, guarding the surroundings, and he dutifully protected Lu Bu's safety!

Even now in your own heavily guarded tent!

"What's going on, sir?" The other cities of Chenhan have been occupied by Lu Bu's army successively, and now the Imperial City of Chenhan has become a lonely city without backup, and for his own soldiers to be unable to capture the Imperial City of Chenhan for a long time, Lu Bu asked Chen Gong very curiously.

"Alas! The palace didn't expect that the Imperial City of Chenhan would be so difficult to break, and the palace used a lot of siege strategies! Even in the dead of night, the four generals led the soldiers to secretly attack many times, but the inside of the Imperial City of Kechen Han seemed to have been prepared, and every time we returned with nothing to do and failed! Please forgive the lord, blame the palace for its lack of strategy! Chen Gong sighed deeply before saying.

"Please forgive your sins!" Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Cao Bao, and Zang Ba also hurriedly asked for sin.

At the same time, they felt that Lu Bu led more than 3,000 cavalry, plus the three pirate leaders of Liao Hua, Zhou Cang, and Pei Yuanshao to occupy the entire territory of Benhan so quickly, and also stabilized Benhan, which made them feel blushing and admired Lu Bu at the same time.

After all, there are many generals, many troops, and Chen Gong, a resourceful man on the side, who is still unable to occupy the entire territory of Chenhan, and has lost thousands of troops here, which is enough to make them feel ashamed!

"If you can't break it, you can't break it, you don't have to! Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and Benhou will not blame you for this! Lu Bu waved his hand, signaling that they didn't have to do this, and then said solemnly again: "Now, let's discuss how to attack the last imperial city of Chen Han!" Ben Hou doesn't believe that a lonely city that is still alive and breathing will not be able to be broken under our troops? ”

"Yes!" Hearing what Lu Bu said, the bad mood of the five people slowly recovered.
