Outside Xiapi City, Chen Gong's body had fallen.

The sounds of all kinds of slaughter and cries died down in that pool of blood, and there was silence on the head of the city, and thousands of people stood there at a loss, and there were people coming from the rest of the city wall, and the wind was whimpering, and many of the people who came also saw the corpses over there, and also learned from their comrades that the reinforcements had been cut off, which made countless people feel desperate.

The buzzing noise mixed with the uneasy aura spread among the many figures, and in the light of day, the sword soldiers could hardly raise their hands in their hands. Hao Meng pressed the hilt of the sword with one hand, like a statue silent there, his constantly flickering eyes seemed to be thinking about something, Wei Xu next to him closed his eyes, his fingertips kept picking at the mottled bloodstained wall tiles, occasionally opened his eyes, and looked at the corpse in a stunned state.

Along the past section of the city wall, it was the rest of the generals such as Song Xian, Cheng Lian, Wei Yue and others, they ran through the city, loudly reprimanded a group of soldiers to return to their defense positions, Zhang Liao looked at the corpse of Chen Gong, gritted his teeth and turned around, and his voice was also admonishing: "You guard the city wall, I will go to see Wen Hou." After speaking, when he rushed down the city wall, the figure of the hundred flower robe was long gone.

"Feng Xian......" he muttered uneasily, hurriedly flipped over a horse, and chased after him regardless of his injuries.

The sky is full of white clouds, and the sun is shining through the clouds.

The flaming red horse returned to the gate with the two big characters of 'Lu Fu' written on the side of the city wall, the reins stopped, the guards at the door came to hold the horse's head, the tall figure came down, and walked in step by step with the Fang Tian halberd, in the courtyard, there were many figures coming and going, busy in the house as before.

Lu Bu walked into the backyard, and the maid and servant ...... Lots of eyes looked at him.

Lingqi, who was playing in the courtyard, called out vividly, "Daddy! He ran over with a pair of small feet, wrapping his arms around the armor, "Why did Daddy come back so early today?" Have the enemies all repulsed? ”

Nearby, Sima Yi and Cai Zhenji, who were talking under the eaves, also walked over, "Wen Hou (Master)." The two of them spoke softly, and over there, Lu Bu stroked his daughter's head and nodded at the two of them, "Zhongda, you come with me." ”

The young man was stunned for a moment, but he still followed him to the middle of the courtyard, Lu Bu threw the halberd in his hand, walked to the stone bench and sat down, pressed his knees with his hands, and said in a calm voice: "Take what I taught you, play a set and let the teacher see it." ”

Sima Yi is a young man, but after all, he is smart, and he doesn't say anything, he simply pinched the heavy Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand, set up a set of starting shelves, and then beat it over and over again according to the number of roads taught in the past, there is no whistling in the air, there is no majestic momentum, just an ordinary and regular wielding halberd.

Under the shade of the tree, the slight sound of waving came to his ears, Lu Bu sat on the stone bench with his eyes closed, and the servants around him understood that the lord's family might be in a bad mood today, so they dispersed one by one, not daring to make a louder sound. Lingqi shook the pigtails at the back of her head, tilted her head, pulled the sleeves of the girl next to her, and lowered her immature voice: "Sister Cai, what's wrong with Daddy......"

Zhenji shook her head: "Wen Hou, he may have encountered something unhappy." ”

While speaking, Lingqi shouted: "Mother! He turned around and trotted towards Yan, who rushed to the other side after hearing the news, pointed to the side of the courtyard, and whispered, "Mother, Daddy is not happy today." ”

"Well, my mother knows, you and Sister Cai can go play elsewhere, and my mother will go over and take a look." Yan smiled and patted Lu Lingqi's little head, raised her gaze, Cai Zhenji over there nodded, took the little figure out of the eaves, and then the woman walked towards her husband.

When the painting halberd was waving, Lu Bu heard the sound of mixed footsteps, opened his eyes and saw his wife walking over, and suddenly let out a sigh of relief, Yan had already walked to his side.

"The husband just went out, and he turned back like this, is there something wrong with the city wall?" The woman looked at the young man wielding the halberd, said softly, and sat down on another stone bench, "Or has the husband already decided?" ”

The sunlight shone through the branches, dappled on the broad shoulders and back, in Lu Bu's sight, the painting halberd wielded by the young man made him feel as if he saw his young self, he was silent for a moment, and his voice was hoarse and squeezed out of his throat: "Chen Gong is dead...... Xiapi completely cut off foreign aid and truly became an isolated city. ”

Yan pursed her lips and took her husband's hand.

"Actually, before Cao Cao and Gongsun Zhi called, he was close to Yuan Shu's people, and I didn't pay attention to these...... Lu Bu closed his eyes, the wind blew, and said quietly: "....... My Lu Bu has a bad reputation, he can come over to be my military advisor, not to mention how happy I am in my heart, I turned a blind eye to whoever the public platform was close to, and now he has really left...... Thinking back to what Cai Shizhong said to me in prison, I finally came to a fork in the road. ”

Speaking of this, something was stuck in the throat, and the Adam's apple rolled a little, and he said with difficulty: "So...... It's time to choose a path, instead of letting Wen Yuan and them die, it is better to let them survive well...... I'm going to do something later. ”

After Lu Bu finished saying this, he paused, reopened his eyes, the bright sunshine, the waving young man seemed to recall some pictures of the past, the wild children galloping on the grassland happily dancing with guns and sticks, and the Xianbei people going south to bid farewell to his father and elders....... and under the city of Xiapi, Chen Gong said goodbye to him...... All the memories related to him.

……

Above the city, Hao Meng, who was wearing armor and holding a gun, was talking with Wei Xu, Song Xian and others, and soon, his subordinates faintly gathered over, preparing for their lives, and after a while, the three of them stopped, seemed to hear Lu Bu's voice, and looked towards the city.

At the same time, the Cao army array outside the city.

Under the continuous banner, the military formation is quiet, occasionally a horse team runs in front of the sight of countless people, in the monotonous sound of horse hooves, the burly general carries a big gun and runs towards the Chinese army, and then dismounts, walks to the big flag, faces a person on horseback, and arches his hand: "What are you waiting for, big brother, now that the person has been killed, start attacking the city." ”

Cao Cao, who was leaning on the Heavenly Sword on his waist and riding on his claws Huang Feidian, shook his head, squinted his eyes and looked at the city wall of Xiapi, and was silent for a moment: "The plan to attack the heart always needs time to ferment, how can it be too urgent, otherwise it will make no sense to let them work together...... Don't be impatient, I can't keep Picheng today. ”

After a pause, he still waved his hand, "Inform Le Jin and Li Dianer to lead the troops forward and approach Baizhang and make a gesture of intimidation." ”

"Yes!" The one-eyed Xiahou arched his hand, turned around and rode away on horseback.

When the order was delivered, on the other side, Gongsun Zhi stood on the high slope with his hands in his hands, and in addition to the guard wolf riders led by Dian Wei and Li Ke, there was also a man with bound hands, with long eyebrows and big eyes, a short beard under his chin with a majestic aura, but his eyes were staring at the back of the person in front of him who did not admit defeat, and his eyes were like a knife.

"Governor, why didn't Cao Cao attack the city yet, Lao Lian is still in the city, I don't know what happened to this guy, that day in the city, I saw that Lu Bu was still the same as before, as if he was not affected by Zhang Yang's letter at all." Dian Wei raised the double halberd in his hand, glanced at Gao Shun who was bound on the side, and glared at him viciously.

Gongsun stopped looking at the group of foot soldiers in the Cao army's large array below, and shook his head, "It's not time yet, uneasiness and fear always need time to spread, as for Lu Bu...... I felt like he was coming. Immediately, he beckoned, "Inform and let the Black Mountain Cavalry follow, the generals under Cao Cao of the province have ruined the plan." ”

Li Ke received the order and immediately led a few cavalry towards the cavalry phalanx on the flank.
