Xuzhou, Xiaopei.

A soft breeze with a hint of coolness crept through the city.

Lu Bu and Diao Chan sat quietly on the steps, enjoying the rare tranquility.

"Since the last ...... I wounded him in the arm, and I never saw him again. ”

Even though Zhang Feng had disappeared from the lives of the two of them for a long time, Lu Bu seemed to be slowly getting used to being entangled. His sudden disappearance made Lu Bu feel uneasy.

"Although the matter of affection cannot be forced, I owe him in the end." Diao Chan pressed his hand to his heart, with a pained expression on his face.

"When I was in Hanoi, I secretly prayed that he would be truly repentant and able to settle his old suspicions with you and me. It's a pity that his obsession is too deep. Lu Bu was also a little unbearable.

Although Zhang Feng broke one of his arms due to anger at that time, Lu Bu also regretted it a little afterwards. After all, in this way, there is no way to get it back.

Seeing Lu Bu's appearance, Diao Chan hurriedly said with a smile: "Don't talk about him anymore, maybe he can figure it out in the future, and then you and I will make a compensatory relationship with him." ”

Lu Bu didn't speak, just looked at her and smiled, which was a response.

"Bong-first." Chen Gong walked up slowly.

The two hurriedly restrained their posture and looked away with some embarrassment.

"He's coming." Chen Gong didn't care about the personal affairs of their children.

Lu Bu sat on the steps of the city wall, but he couldn't see the scene below, so even if someone entered the city, he didn't know.

And the guards all gave up this section of the city wall to Lu Bu and Diao Chan in an interesting way, and of course no one would come over to tell them without interest.

"Then let's go back to the government and talk about it in detail." Lu Bu said and stood up.

"No need, it's right here, the government is too stuffy." A middle-aged man also walked up, it was Zang Ba.

"Brother Xuan, it's so fast." Lu Bu threw his hand at him.

"The situation is urgent, and I can't be unhappy." Zang Ba replied.

"Oh? What happened? ”

"There are two things urgent. First, the matter of the alliance between you and me seems to have been known to Liu Bei; Second, the remnants of Tang Zhou's subordinates were now stationed at the Yellow Turban Grain Depot, and Zhao Yun was preparing to send someone to persuade them. If the batch of baggage from the grain depot is obtained by Liu Bei, I am afraid that after he recruits troops and horses, he will not tolerate you again. ”

"These two things are really tricky. Feng Xian, in my opinion, as long as we don't say anything about the alliance with Xuangao, he Liu Bei will not do anything. But this granary ...... He must not be allowed to get it. Chen Gong thought and said.

"What does that public platform mean......"

The camp set off with Xuangao's men and horses, and immediately rushed to the grain depot. It is naturally good to be a lobbyist who can stop Zhao Yun, but if he can't, he will destroy the grain depot. ”

"It's a pity, but that's it." Lu Bu had heard Chen Gong and himself relay Zang Ba's description of the Yellow Turban Grain Depot before, and he also knew what that huge amount of baggage meant, so when he heard that there was such a grain depot, he would naturally be moved.

"Gongtai, I want you to go with me."

"Well, okay, I'll give it a try."

Chen Gong understood what Lu Bu meant—six thousand men and horses, all of them experienced in a hundred battles, if they could be used by their own side, it would be much easier to succeed.

Yanzhou, Shanyang County, Changyi.

Several subordinates in Duan Xuan's residence were all stunned by the scene in front of them at this time.

Their host, who had just been chatting with the guests, suddenly moved his weapon.

"I heard that Uncle Mo's spider silk technique, only you have learned it the best, it seems that it is true." Zhang Feng completely ignored the silk thread wrapped around his left wrist and said to Duan Xuan with a smile.

"Your chain blade is also a stunt." Duan Xuan's neck was wrapped around the iron chain at this time, and in front of him was the dagger that Zhang Feng stopped at the last moment.

Since Zhang Feng took refuge in Cao Cao, the two of them have also met often, and sometimes after chatting for a long time, Zhang Feng stayed at Duan Xuan's house to eat.

But today, just because the two of them talked about Mo Yue, Zhang Feng's words were a little disrespectful, and Duan Xuan made a move. But Zhang Feng's reaction was also very fast, so the two fought during the banquet.

"Heh, Fang is younger brother lost his words for a while, don't blame Brother Xuan." Zhang Feng actually took the initiative to withdraw the chain blade and apologized with a smile.

"Feng'er is polite, why do you and my brother say these extraneous words." Duan Xuan also loosened the spider silk like no one.

The people were surprised and relieved at the same time. They all cursed in their hearts: It is not easy to serve the two Hades.

Now Duan Xuan is nearly thirty years old, and Zhang Feng is also in his twenties. After going through many things, their minds have also changed.

"But I'm curious." Duan Xuan asked as he picked up the wine jug that had just been knocked down.

"What's the matter, it's okay for Brother Xuan to be blunt."

"If, as you said, you have already killed your master, why haven't you seen the vengeance seeker here for a long time?"

"They're not coming." Zhang Feng picked up a wine glass, took Duan Xuan's wine jug, and filled himself with a glass.

"Oh? Why? ”

"Because one of the master's subordinates betrayed, and that person was Yuexian. It was thanks to her that I was able to escape. ”

Duan Xuan sighed, "No wonder, presumably the other three sects are busy dealing with the Southeast Main Hall at this time." ”

"I don't care about this, I just want to end Lu Bu's life as soon as possible." When Zhang Feng said this, he unconsciously gritted his teeth.

"His sweetheart was taken away by him, and he made you what you are now." Duan Xuan's tone was full of ridicule.

Zhang Feng was not annoyed by his words, but became very stunned, "Actually, that's just an excuse, I just envy his past." As an Assassin, I'm afraid that you and I will not be as brilliant as him in my life. ”

Duan Xuan was silent for a while after hearing this, then picked up the wine jug and drank it in a big gulp.

"I often wonder if what Nightblade did was really right? There are too many people who have died over the years because of what we have done. Zhang Feng played with the wine glass and said casually.

"Only thinking of the common people," Duan Xuan had already drunk the wine, and said with this strength: "No matter how many people die, as long as you can make the world peaceful in the end, it will be worth it." ”

"Brother Xuan, your stubbornness is far better than mine. By the way, has Cao Cao decided to send troops to Xuzhou recently? ”

"I'm afraid it's difficult. Xun Yu had already said that he was tempted, and it is estimated that he is preparing to welcome the emperor at this moment. ”

"Emperor? What did you do with him? ”

"Alas, according to Xun Yu's opinion, the emperor's coming to Yanzhou is Cao Cao's talisman, which can temporarily ensure that Yanzhou will not be attacked on all sides."

"Heh, has he forgotten Dong Zhuo back then?"

Hearing this name, Duan Xuan suddenly became extremely indifferent, "In the future, you and I will chat, it's best not to mention this name again." You have to know that I haven't settled the account with you yet. ”

Yangzhou, Qu'a.

Liu Miao was attacked by Sun Cejun that day, and had no choice but to order Kaecheng to surrender. But the world is unpredictable, he was not captured by Sun Ce.

Because a troop of soldiers and horses suddenly appeared on the battlefield, the leader was Tai Shici, who had rescued Kong Rong with Liu Bei before.

In fact, after Tai Shici separated from Kong Rong, he had already taken refuge in Liu Xuan, but he has not been reused.

But he didn't mind, but remained faithful.

When he heard the news that Sun Ce had cleared Liu Xuan's subordinates, Tai Shici asked for help, and although Liu Xuan did not have much hope, he immediately agreed to him.

In fact, Tai Shi Ci is a generous person and is not good at talking. But just when he was in trouble, a mysterious teenager appeared. He introduced himself to Tai Shici as Hu Lin, a refugee from the Central Plains who fled here, and came to help Tai Shici because he didn't want Jiangdong to suffer another war.

At first, Tai Shi Ci was very suspicious of him, but after several conversations with the leaders of Shanyue, Tai Shi Ci found that the truth seemed to be really what he said, because every leader who talked to him agreed to send troops.

In this way, after visiting the last leader, Yan Baihu of Wu County, Tai Shici had already gathered an army of 50,000 people.

So he immediately led the army to rescue Liu Xuan, and finally caught up at the last moment.

Sun Ce wanted to forcibly leave Liu Miao by force, but was dissuaded by Zhou Yu. After all, with their men, the battle against Shanyue may be a narrow victory, but they will also lose the capital to carry out the next step.

Although Sun Ce was very unwilling, he could also distinguish the severity. Therefore, he had no choice but to let Tai Shici leave.

After that, Sun Ce occupied Qu'a, recuperated his soldiers, and prepared to calm Jiangdong in one go.

Tai Shi Ci and Hu Lin escorted Liu Xuan to Yuzhang, and then joined forces with Shanyue to occupy Jing County and lead the six counties to the west to defend against Sun Ce.

After a short rest, Sun Ce led a large army to face off with Tai Shici.

Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and the Seven Sages and Old Zhang Zhao each set up camp, echoing each other from afar, forming a semi-encirclement of Jing County.

Facing the spectacular enemy camp outside the city, Hu Lin finally couldn't help but tell Tai Shici the truth.

He is actually the apprentice of one of the night marshals under the Ten Sages of the Southeast General Hall, Yu Jizuo, because the six night marshals are not easy to come forward directly, so he has to deal with Sun Ce secretly.

The reason why he was chosen was because there were as many as eighteen night commanders in the Southeast General Hall, many of whom had only joined in recent years, and they didn't all know each other.

And Hu Lin is the most secret apprentice of the Ten Sages Elder who is a handsome man, and he has been hiding in a hidden place in the mountains for the past few years to learn skills alone, and no one has seen him at all.

After hearing the whole thing, Tai Shici was speechless in surprise for a while.

First of all, he was unaware of the existence of the Night Blade; Secondly, he didn't expect the Sun family's background to be so complicated.

The reason why Hu Lin chose to tell Tai Shici at this time was because he wanted to escape at night and seek the help of the Ten Sages.

Tai Shici also understood that the soldiers and horses in these counties alone could not fight against the veterans who had followed the Sun family for many years. Not to mention the many killers and famous generals of the Southeast General Hall.

Although there are still doubts about why the Ten Virtuous Elders turned against the other two Virtuous Elders, the top priority at the moment is naturally to find a way to defeat Sun Ce. So Tai Shici didn't have time to think about it, so he agreed to let Hu Lin sneak out for help.

However, this final plan was not realized, because just as Hu Lin was preparing, Sun Ce began to attack the city.
