Chapter 24: The Night Battle
Chen Gong is not a celebrity, but he is already a figure who has stepped into the ranks of scholars, although the four major families of Haixi have decided to deal with Lu Bu, but for Chen Gong, they still maintain due etiquette, except for Geng's escort and surveillance, they do not restrict Chen Gong's freedom.

The news brought by Hao Zhao made Chen Gong relax a lot, and he had also heard the name of Guan Hai, and now that he was willing to serve Lu Bu, he had also won Lu Bu's approval.
If it was before, Chen Gong would be worried about whether this was a fraud, after all, Lu Bu's recognition in this regard was not too high in the past, but now, Chen Gong is more at ease.
With Guan Hai's wholehearted help, then whether he can cross the river next depends on tomorrow, at this moment, Chen Gong is at ease, and various factors in advance have been in their hands, as for whether Chen Qi can see through it, it depends on the sky, he is here, even if he is in a hurry, it is useless.
Calming down, Chen Gong focused on another person, the young man named Xu Sheng, although he was also an outsider, but compared to him, this Xu Sheng should also be regarded as a head snake, and the little guy's martial arts are not weak, if he can be subdued, it will be better.
Lu Bu is worried about the problem of talents, Chen Gong is naturally more concerned, this Xu Sheng has talent and ability, if he can be taken under his command and cultivated in the future, he may not be able to take charge of himself.
However, although today is considered a good fate, Chen Gong can see that although this young man is now down, his knowledge is no less than that of the disciples of the family, and he may not be able to serve Lu Bu because of this kindness, after all, Lu Bu is not only notorious today, but also reduced to a rogue, such conditions, not to mention Xu Sheng, a military general who has been cultivated by the family and has rich experience, is an ordinary military general, and he may not be able to look at it, Chen Gong can only let Hao Zhao test it, as for whether it can succeed, it still depends on the sky.
Time passed like this, Xu Miao did not let Chen Gong wait for three days, but gave Chen Gong an accurate answer the next day, and began to urge Chen Gong to notify Lu Bu as soon as possible, therefore, Hao Zhao, who had not been resting for a long time, was sent out again, this time the Xu family also provided a fast horse, Hao Zhao came back at night, this time, it was not just him, there were ten knights as escorts, and at the same time, there was a detailed plan to cross the river tomorrow night.
Including the time of crossing the river, the agreed place and how to distinguish the two parties, Chen Gong immediately took the trouble to discuss with Xu Miao with these news, and did not know that Xu Miao, who had been used as a pawn by Lu Bu and Chen Gong, was still smug at the moment, and after discussing with Chen Gong, he quickly sent someone to inform Qian Wen of the news, and asked Qian Wen to inform Chen Qi to prepare for an ambush, just wait for Lu Bu to take the bait.
In the evening, Kowloon Crossing.
"Lord, we are the last batch, let's get on the boat." Guan Hai took Lu Bu to a big ship, and Chitu was alone.
"Your brothers......" Lu Bu turned his head and looked at Guan Hai, a hint of apology flashed in his eyes, yesterday day, he frequently mobilized soldiers and horses to the surrounding markets, making the illusion of buying a large amount of grain, but in fact, he took the opportunity to secretly transfer his five hundred soldiers to Jiulongdu, and in the big camp, at this moment, Guan Hai's six hundred men stayed in the barracks.
Zhang Liao disrupted and reorganized these people, a team of ten people, monitoring each other, and went out of the camp to meet them tonight, as for the place of convergence, it was naturally impossible to really come to Jiulongdu, from the beginning, these six hundred people had been regarded as outcasts, as for how many of these people would be alive in the end, Lu Bu didn't know, but there was not much hope of survival.
Guan Hai shook his head, looked in the direction of Dongfang'er, and said with a hint of bitterness in his eyes: "Didn't the lord say that there is still a chance." ”
Lu Bu nodded, there is indeed a chance, but how many opportunities there are, Lu Bu himself is not very sure, but at this time, looking at Guan Hai's appearance, naturally he can't say anything frustrating.
Speechless, Lu Bu's five hundred men and horses, including their families, crossed Surabaya so quietly, while on the other side, Chen Qi commanded Zang Ba to lay a net at the ferry where Lu Bu and the four major families had set a joint, and just waited for Lu Bu to come in, and killed Lu Bu in one fell swoop!
Night fell quietly, on the south bank of Surabaya, the crowd that was supposed to be ready to receive Lu Bu to cross the river according to the plan at this moment had changed at this moment, Hao Zhao took ten knights to protect Chen Gong in front of him, looking at the family members of the four major families who surrounded them in front of him, Chen Gong's face was gloomy: "Xu Wencheng, what does this mean?" ”
After the crowd, Xu Miao sighed lightly, urged the war horse to step forward, and said apologetically to Chen Gong: "Forgive me from Gongtai, for the sake of the family's livelihood, we can only hand over Lu Bu, this person is a puppet, and at this time he is even more lonely, Gongtai is a masterpiece in the world, why bother to lose his life for this person?" After this incident is settled, Xu will definitely bring the heads of the four families to make amends to Brother Gongtai. ”
Hao Zhao's eyes were fierce, and he looked at Xu Miao calmly, and was about to make a move, but was grabbed by Chen Gong, and looked at Xu Miao with a sneer and said, "I only hope that Brother Wen Cheng will not regret it when the time comes." ”
Regret?
Xu Miao looked at Chen Gong and shook his head, just thinking that he was talking angrily, and he didn't care, at this time, a rocket suddenly rose up on the north bank, which was extremely eye-catching in the night sky.
"Master, signal over there!" Geng Escort looked at Xu Miao excitedly.
"Send a signal, notify the other side, it's time to do it!" Xu Miao's eyes also flashed with a hint of relaxation, after all, the opponent was Lu Bu, since he chose to be his enemy, he would always be on his back if he didn't get rid of him for a day.
"Yes!" Guard Geng agreed, and was about to give an order, when in the night sky, an arrow cluster burst through the sky, and an arrow shot through Guard's throat.
"Uh~" In Xu Miao's horrified gaze, Guard Geng grabbed the void with both hands a few times, and his burly body slipped softly.
"What man!?" Xu Miao was furious and hurriedly turned her head to look around.
"Kill!" In all directions, there was a sudden shouting of killing, and under the moonlight, a young man threw away the longbow in his hand, took off the iron gun on his back with his backhand, and rushed over with dozens of ragged men.
"Sir, it's Xu Sheng, why is he here?" Hao Zhao looked at the young man suspiciously, his eyes were extremely keen, even if he was far away, he recognized Xu Sheng at a glance, and looked at Chen Gong in surprise, thinking that it was arranged by Chen Gong.
"Kill the past first and join Xu Sheng!" Chen Gong smiled bitterly and shook his head, he didn't expect Xu Sheng to give them such a play.
"Yes! Brothers, do it! Hao Zhao couldn't bear it for a long time, and when he heard the words at this moment, he shouted, and the silver gun in his hand was swept away, and the four Xu family members were directly swept out, and the ten knights around him were already waiting impatiently.
North Shore.
"What's going on? Why hasn't the signal been sent yet? Zang Ba had already watched a group of men and horses come to the shore, but he had not received the signal to attack on the south bank, and he was suspicious.
"General, let's do it, it's too late for a change!" Beside Zang Ba, a deputy general said hurriedly, anyway, Lu Bu's men and horses have already entered the ambush circle, so why wait.
"Okay, do it!" Zang Ba nodded, and with a wave of his hand, an arrow burst into the air.
"Kill!"
On the shore of Surabaya, a group of brave men were waiting on the shore, and when they were at a loss, they were caught off guard by the sudden shouts of killing.
"What's going on!?" A strong man looked at the ambush soldiers who were killing from all directions, and roared with a big knife: "Where is the big leader!?" ”
"Leader, look at the south bank, it seems that there is a war, I'm afraid that the big boss is fighting with people!" A man came to his side and pointed to South Bank Road.
"Brothers, hold on, the big boss will come to our rescue soon!" These people are all the elites who followed Guan Hai from Qingzhou back then, each with a bandit atmosphere, and at this moment they saw that they were surrounded on all sides, but they were not afraid at all, and they fiercely faced the Xuzhou army that came to kill them.
"Puff~"
When the first round of arrow rain fell, many bandits screamed and fell to the ground, but more bandits roared and rushed up, killing with Xuzhou soldiers, but there were too many Xuzhou troops, just a moment of fighting, a group of bandits were killed and retreated.
At the same time, on the south bank, Chen Gong had already joined Xu Sheng, but unfortunately, Xu Sheng brought some Zhuang Han from Haixi, although he also had some strength, but where was the well-trained opponent of the family soldiers, he was quickly suppressed.
"Little brother, why are you here?" Chen Gong held the sword in his hand, and while letting Hao Zhao command everyone to fight and retreat, he pulled Xu Sheng closer.
"I'm here to repay the favor!" Xu Sheng said in a rough voice, at this time, the Zhuang Han he brought was almost killed, and it was all up to Hao Zhao to wander around with ten cavalrymen to save the defeat.
When Chen Gong heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Thank you." ”
"Why does the gentleman look like that?" Xu Sheng looked at Chen Gong in confusion.
Chen Gong was about to explain, the ground suddenly trembled violently, even the four major families who shouted to kill the heavens also felt this tremor at the same time, and the battlefield was slightly sluggish, and at this moment, a thunderous roar sounded in the night sky: "Lu Bu is here, and the thief is not beheaded!" ”
Under the moonlight, the red rabbit horse looked up to the sky and neighed, Lu Bu wore a helmet through the armor, and the heavenly painting halberd in his hand exuded a palpitating light under the reflection of the moonlight, and behind him, five hundred knights were like ghosts from hell, fiercely rushing into the camp of the four major families, tearing apart the originally neat formation in an instant.
In the distance, Xu Miao, Qian Wen, and the heads of the Zheng Wang family, after hearing Lu Bu's roar, their brains instantly went blank.
