Outside Xiangping City, in the camp where Lu Bu's army was located.

"Oh? I didn't expect Gongsun Du's old man to die in a hurry? Gongsun Gong's kid was so backbone and unwilling to surrender, and even thought about finding Benhou to avenge the death of his old son and eldest brother? In the big tent of the Chinese army, Lu Bu looked at a bamboo slip in his hand, which was the first news from the city's fine work through special channels.

For Gongsun Du to die of anger, Lu Bu was very surprised.

As for Gongsun Gong's dumb son who wanted to avenge himself for the death of Gongsun Du and Gongsun Kang, Lu Bu sneered, and was extremely disdainful of Gongsun Gong's indiscretion.

"Yes, my lord. According to the detailed report lurking in Xiangping City, now, Gongsun Gong is holding funerals for Gongsun Du and Gongsun Kang, and the army in the city is now under the control of Gongsun Gong. Li Ru on the side hurriedly replied.

"So? Is the Gongsun family really unwilling to surrender to Benhou? Lu Bu asked.

"It sees! However, the lord does not have to worry, due to the death of Gongsun Du, there is now chaos in Xiangping City. In order to survive, of course, but also to ensure that they have not lost their hard-won status, there are already many powerful people in the city who have contacted us, and there is even a general in charge of a few hundred troops to defend the city! As long as we have a meeting with them at that time, we will be able to attack Xiangping City tonight! Li Ru replied.

"Hmmm! That's it! Lu Bu nodded, expressing his satisfaction.

"Then my lord, go down and prepare for tonight's siege." Li Ru said.

"Hmm!" Lu Bu nodded again, then looked at Cao Bao and Zang Ba on the side, and said, "Father-in-law, Xuan Gao, the two of you will lead the army to cooperate with the action of Wen You, the division of the right army, tonight. ”

"No!" Lu Bu's orders, Cao Bao and Zang Ba naturally had no objections.

"Hmmm! Let's all go down and get ready to go! Then, Lu Bu waved his hand and waved everyone away.

After everyone left, Lu Bu walked out of the Chinese army's tent under the escort of Zhou Cang and other personal soldiers.

Lu Bu raised his head and looked at the incomparably tall and sturdy Xiangping City not far away, which was a behemoth city that was no worse than Xuzhou Xiapi City, which made Lu Bu feel very satisfied.

Because soon, this city will belong to Lu Bu!

Lu Bu was even planning to wait for Xiangping to be captured, and then stabilized, should he move his Wenhou Mansion from Xingba City in Wenjun County here, so that Xiangping would become the center of his rights in the future?

After all, the location of Xingba City is too remote! In addition to the north adjacent to Lelang County and Goguryeo, the other three sides are surrounded by the sea!

Xiangping is different, adjacent to Goguryeo in the east, the Korean Peninsula in the south, Wuhuan in the west entrenched in Liaodong's vassal states and Liaoxi counties, and some to the west is also adjacent to Youzhou that Yuan Shao just occupied (of course, the counties of Liaodong also belong to Youzhou), and the north is adjacent to Northern Xinjiang, where there are many foreign races.

Lu Bu thinks it's feasible when he thinks about it!

However, it is still necessary to break through Xiangping, and then quickly occupy and stabilize the Liaodong counties that originally belonged to Gongsun Du, and then conquer Goguryeo in the east, so as to make himself the overlord of this vast land.

Of course, it is necessary to eliminate the surrounding Wuhuan and Fuyu alien races, and then the army will go north to occupy the fertile plain, that is, the Northeast Plain in the later generations, and make it their own pasture or granary!

At that time, recruit troops, develop the economy and people's livelihood, and wait for the time when Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are fighting, and then wait for the opportunity to move back to the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty.

Let the princes and people of the world know that this Marquis Lu Feng has returned first, and he has become more powerful! Just ask the world, who is competing?

……

Time is quietly passing, the sun is setting, and night is falling.

At the south gate of Xiangping, in a dark, heavily guarded hall, a general defending the city and five or six powerful people in Xiangping City were gathering together to discuss something.

"Yang Jun Sima, are you ready now? When you're ready, let those who are loyal to you open the South Gate! Then, lead the army to face the Liaodong army led by Gongsun Gong's little boy to counterattack together with some of the strong men we gathered, and don't let them close the southern city gate opened by us, and wait for the iron-blooded army of Wenhou outside the city to come, and the Liaodong army, which is mostly a new recruit, is definitely not the opponent of Wenhou's army! In this way, we have made a great achievement! At that time, Wen Hou will become the lord of Liaodong, and he will definitely not treat us who have contributed to the city! At this time, the head of a large family in the city asked excitedly to a general who was defending the city.

"Hmmm! I'm ready to open the South Gate! Besides, tonight I am also one of the generals guarding the city gate of Xiangping Quartet, and I can open the south gate unexpectedly and let the army led by Wen Hou attack in! The general who defended the city replied, and he was also very excited.

If he sacrifices the city tonight and allows the army led by Lu Bu to break through Xiangping, he, as a general defending the city in Xiangping, will not only be able to save his own life during the siege of the city, but he can also go one step further and be a school captain!

"Ladies and gentlemen, is it really good for our Liaodong counties to let Wen Hou enter Liaodong? After all, Wen Hou's reputation is not good in the Han Dynasty...... "At this time, one of the overseers under Gongsun Du said worriedly.

"Humph! Now that you're sitting with us, don't say anything more that makes us sick to our stomach! If you let Wen Hou know, aren't you afraid that Wen Hou will trouble you after breaking through Xiangping? Besides, the Gongsun family has been declining, Gongsun Du is dead, and Gongsun Gong can resist Wenhou's army and defend the counties in eastern Liaodong? In addition, Marquis Wen came here from Xuzhou across the sea, and was able to quickly occupy the land of Sanhan, establish Wen County, and then consolidate his own rule over Wen County. Now, Wenhou has also resisted the southward movement of our Liaodong counties and Goguryeo's 40,000 troops, and defeated our 20,000 Liaodong troops in one fell swoop, and now he is counterattacking our Liaodong counties, and he is about to become the overlord of Liaodong! Isn't such a wise and martial man worthy of being a hero in troubled times? As for Wen Hou's bad reputation? Oh, don't think about it, it must have been deliberately made up by Wen Hou's enemies and then used to slander Wen Hou! Besides, even if Wen Hou really has a bad reputation, so what?! Now is the troubled times, and the one who holds the military power in his hands and can win the battle is the uncle! If you are like those so-called scholars who are arrogant and look down on Wen Hou, heh, aren't you afraid that Wen Hou, who is in charge of the army, will give you a raid to destroy the clan? The Han Dynasty has fallen, the Son of Heaven has been held hostage by Cao thieves, and by then, you won't even have a place to redress your grievances! Hearing what the superintendent said, the general guarding the city hurriedly reprimanded angrily.

Although most of the world's warriors look down on Lu Bu, who has a bad reputation, the people in the military are the opposite of them, Lu Bu's martial arts are the best in the world, and he can often win battles when he leads troops to fight, which can make people in the military respect like gods!

They all wanted to be soldiers under Lu Bu's account, and then follow Lu Bu to fight in the north and south, establish immortal feats, seal their wives and sons, and glorify their ancestors.

The general who defended the city was so stunned, then the governor immediately didn't dare to say anything, and the governor believed that if he said anything more, without Lu Bu killing him at that time, the general defending the city, who was a fanatic of Lu Bu, would immediately cut him into meat foam, so that he could not die anymore.

After all, as the general who defended the city said, it is the uncle who holds the military power in this troubled world, and if he dares to contradict a small post governor, isn't it death?!

Although there are some strong people under him, where are the soldiers under the command of the general who defends the city?

"Humph!" Seeing that the post governor was no longer stunned, the general defending the city no longer paid attention to him, and after snorting coldly at him, he looked at the others and said, "Since you all want to open the southern city gate and let Wen Hou lead the army to attack it, in order to earn a contribution to the city, then let's act now!" Of course, when we act, if anyone dares to make any small moves behind our backs that cause us to fail, then don't blame the butcher's knife in my hand for showing you no mercy! ”

At this time, in the face of the murderous generals defending the city, who would dare to speak out against it?!

Especially the superintendent, in the murderous words of the general defending the city, his body trembled obviously, and he only felt that the murderous words of the general defending the city just now were said to him!

Under the threat of the murderous words of the generals defending the city, everyone in the hall was much more honest, and then, they gathered their strong and followed the generals to open the south gate, and then, together they guarded the open south gate, and fought for enough time to wait for Lu Bu outside the city to lead the army into the city and occupy Xiangping!
