Chapter 352: Hunting in Lu XVII
Under the stars, the night is sultry.
Xiapi City.
Da Da Da ......
Outside the city, the cavalry of Wu State, which was always running around the city, rumbled with the sound of horses' hooves, making Xiapi City seem to be in an earthquake environment all the time.
Countless people in the city were anxious and frightened, and gradually turned into timidity and madness, and over time, a pessimistic atmosphere was brewing in Xiapi City.
This is Zhou Yu's strategy, a strategy for exhausting soldiers.
Hundreds of thousands of soldiers besieged the city, during the day, the drums beat constantly, and the foot soldiers were in the exercises, showing a situation of imminent attack, but there was no attack for a long time, and at night, the cavalry surrounded the city, running constantly.
In just ten days of this policy, both the soldiers and the people in the city showed an unprecedented fatigue and irritability, and their morale became weaker and weaker.
"It's the sound of horses' hooves in the middle of the night, the drums during the day, and the horses galloping at night, I haven't had a good night's sleep these days!" In the city, at this moment, in the main house of a house, a woman opened her eyes, sighed helplessly, and muttered to herself.
"Don't mumble, it's already good if you haven't attacked the city yet, sleep, Xiapi City will be breached sooner or later, we don't know how long we can be stable!"
Her husband lay down next to her and persuaded softly.
Like them, there are countless people in Xiapi City, the army of Wu State besieges the city, and the entire Xiapi people are panicked, and the pessimists occupy most of the crowd.
"Looking at the formation, our Xiapi City is about to be breached!"
"It's okay if it's broken, if we can return to Wu in peace and smoothness, maybe it's still a good thing!"
"I've heard that today's Wu people are the best in the world."
"I have a fellow villager who fled to Jiangdong a few years ago when Cao Bing was massacring the city. When I went to Jinling, I gave them land at that time, and now I have more than a dozen acres of land at home! â
"It's just a pity that Lu Bu has always been unwilling to surrender, and I don't know if King Wu will be ashamed of this, and then blame us!"
"I hope that the soldiers and horses of Wu State will not indiscriminately kill innocents when they enter the city!"
Today's Xiapi City. There are still tens of thousands of people, and they have no confidence in Lu Bu at all in their hearts, let alone the so-called Lu country.
Maybe in their hearts, there is no concept of Lu at all.
For example, today calls Lu Bu the king of Lu, Lu Bu, but in the hearts of the people of Xiapi, Lu Bu is still Lu Bu, a three-surnamed domestic slave who used means to occupy Xuzhou.
In the hearts of all of them: this battle will be lost.

Cheng. A deserted old mansion, it looks calm on the outside, but inside it is turbulent in the dark, with three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry. Heavily guarded.
This used to be the mansion of Xuzhou Mu Taoqian, but after the potter brothers established themselves in Jiangdong, this place has been abandoned.
"Fang (Ying) to meet Lu Qianhu!"
At this moment, hundreds of soldiers lurked here, waiting for an opportunity, above the lobby, the light of a small oil lamp swayed, and the tall bodies of Mi Fang and Tao Ying stood in front of a Confucian in Tsing Yi. Very respectful.
The Tao family and the Mi family were both born in Xuzhou, and their influence in Xuzhou is not weak, and they have a solid foundation in Xiapicheng. Even if he has withdrawn from Xiapi for a few years, he still has extraordinary influence.
Therefore, before the army moved, the two had already taken hundreds of elite soldiers from Guangling, and with the assistance of Jinyiwei, quietly infiltrated Xiapi City, and lurked quietly. Wait for the main force outside the city to arrive, and then join the inside and outside. In one fell swoop, he took down Picheng.
"Two captains, don't be polite!"
Lu Yuan looked at the two of them. Smiled slightly, the smile was a little complicated.
He used to be from the pirate Xuezhou, but he was just a small staff, and the entire Yuzhou Mountain was a meal, and later after Xuezhou returned to Shun, he also became a member of the Jinyi Guard.
Later, Sun Ce and Sun Quan besieged Cao Cao in the East China Sea, and the news network of Jinyiwei went wrong, and Jinyiwei Xuzhou at that time was only a hundred households, and he was directly abandoned, and he was valued by Jinyiwei and became the person in charge of Jinyiwei in Xuzhou.
After the Wu Dynasty, Jinyiwei expanded a lot, and Xuzhou was upgraded from 100 households to 1,000 households.
A Jinyi Wei Qianhu naturally can't let the two captains with heavy troops be so respectful, if it was the boss of Jinyi Wei in Xuzhou at that time, it would be worthy of this status.
"Lu Qianhu, the order we received is to obey Lu Qianhu's dispatch, and now the three hundred children are here, I don't know if Lu Qianhu has a plan?"
Mi Fang was extraordinary, looking at Lu Yuan, her eyes flashing with this wisp of essence.
The Mi family is now the leader of the Jiangdong Chamber of Commerce, comparable to the family, and Mi Fang is the leader of the younger generation in the army.
"This matter still has to bother Captain Tao!"
Lu Yuan groaned for a while, squinted, looked at Tao Ying, who was silent on the left, his eyes crossed a gleam, and he said in a low voice.
Now the people in the city are panicking, although Tao Qian has been dead for several years, but Lu Bu and Liu Bei are all unpopular, so the hearts of the people still point to the former Tao Qian.
Tao Qian, although he was not a qualified prince, was well-written and tired of soldiers at that time, and the former Xiapi City could be regarded as living and working in peace and contentment within the scope of his jurisdiction.
At this time, under Zhou Yu's tired strategy, Xiapi was already full of resentment, as long as he guided it a little, a wild wave would break out, and Tao Ying's identity was the lead.
"It should be unclear, please make it clear to Lu Qianhu!"
Tao Ying raised his head, looked at Lu Yuan, his eyes moved slightly, and he arched his hand.
Lu Yuan smiled faintly, and his expression crossed a touch of decisiveness, and said: "The guard of the West Gate is Cao Bao, Cao Bao, Lu Bu entered Xuzhou to benefit from this person, in order to consolidate Xuzhou, he also married the daughter of the Cao family as his wife, although this person is Lu Bu's father-in-law, but after all, he is also the veteran of Tao Envoy Jun, and now he is in shape, Lu Bu will be defeated, if he is interested, open the West Gate, he can protect the Cao family, this matter needs to be Tao Xiaowei to come forward, if Tao Xiaowei can persuade him to surrender and open the West Gate, we will say that we have made a great contribution!" â
"Cao Bao?"
When Tao Ying heard this, his eyes moved slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "When this person's father was still alive, he was a little unruly and difficult to train. The Cao family can also be regarded as the strong man of Xiapi, after the destruction of the Chen family, he relied on Lu Bu's general trend and became the biggest powerful man in Xiapi City, and he should not be sure that he could convince him. If this person is stubborn, will he not reveal our true nature? â
"Don't be afraid!"
When Lu Yuan heard this, he smiled faintly, shook his head, and the corners of his mouth outlined a confident arc, and said, "The general trend is in my Wu country." Those who follow my Wu country prosper, and those who oppose my Wu country die, if he is interested, he can stay alive, if he insists on looking for death. A certain person also has a means to kill him, and he can't hurt me and other big things! â
Jinyiwei has been in Xuzhou for so many years, and the buried means are enough to kill a general and seize the city gate, but it can be surrendered or surrendered.
ââââââââââââââââââââââ
Palace of the King of Lu.
Lu Bu's tall and somewhat gloomy figure sat on the top of the main hall, his tiger eyes seemed to have lost their luster, flashing with wisps of despair.
This battle has been lost!
If the Wu army directly attacked the city. With the morale of the soldiers in the city, he was a soldier and should have the ability to fight.
It's a pity that now the Wu army is using the siege strategy. The strategy of tired soldiers, the ten-day siege of the city, the sound of drums during the day, the horses' hooves running at night, and the soldiers in the city, none of them can sleep peacefully. Day and night so, the body lĂŹ consume. The spirit is not good, and the little morale that was ignited by him has been worn away bit by bit.
Today's Xiapi. The soldiers, the people, are all panicked, he is already ...... The tide is over.
"Husband!"
In the gloomy night, Yan Shi carried a lantern and walked in quietly, staring at Lu Bu who was sitting in the dark.
"Madam, it's late at night, why don't you rest!" Lu Bu raised his head slightly, looked at his wife, who was in love with each other, and showed a very reluctant smile.
"Now that the outside of the city is turbulent, the concubine is difficult to sleep, and I am worried about my husband, so I came to take a look!" Yan is a powerful woman in Jiuyuan City, although she is not beautiful and captivating, but she can be regarded as having a good face, and she has the resolute temperament of a Mobei woman.
In the past, she insisted on marrying Lu Bu, and then with Lu Bu's southern expedition to the north, she was bumpy and displaced for most of her life, without half a complaint, and has been silently supporting Lu Bu behind her.
"Yue'er, it's me Lu Bu I'm sorry for you, you have been with me for more than ten years, and I have never let you have a little bit of happiness, it's because of my husband's incompetence!"
Lu Bu's eyes were clear, staring at Yan, who was now only over thirty years old, but the slightest wrinkle appeared at the corners of his eyes, which was caused by overwork.
He felt a deep apology for his wife.
Lu Bu has never been Liu Bei, he can't be a brother like a sibling, a wife and children like clothes, young like a lone wolf growing up in the lonely grassland, he values the meaning of his home more than ordinary princes.
A hero, he dominates the world, and he is also a man with long children, his wife, and daughter, all of which are burdens that he can't let go of now.
"Husband, in the past, I married into the Lu family, you and I should be one, you live, I live, you die, I die!"
Yan's graceful body gently leaned against Lu Bu's body, and said with a firm expression.
"Yue'er, if you have a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for!"
Lu Bu was extremely moved in his heart, looked at Yan's eyes, and suddenly smiled, with a touch of decisiveness in his hard expression, and said: "For the husband, he should rely on the halberd in his hand, dismount the horse in his crotch, and make a bloody way for you to 'kill'." â
This killing is not another killing, the fetters of his wife and children, Lu Bu already has the slightest intention of surrendering in his heart.
âŚâŚ
At this time, in an elegant little mansion in the palace, a young woman and a girl of flowers also stayed awake all night.
"Little mother, is Daddy defeated?"
Lu Qiling sat next to the young woman, she was twelve years old, her face followed her mother, she was delicate and lovely, and she also had a touch of fortitude from her father Lu Bu.
Her eyes sparkled, a little confused.
Since she was a child, her father was the invincible god of war in her heart, and she didn't believe that Lu Bu would be defeated, but now the rumbling horses' hooves in Xiapi City made her have to believe it.
"Bell!"
The young woman is like a flower, beautiful as a fairy, wearing a palace skirt, her delicate face shows a faint smile, the white jade silky palm gently strokes the girl's hair, and says with a smile: "The prince is brave and brave, and he can enter and exit among the ten thousand armies, how can he be defeated, you don't have to think too much!" â
This woman is the Diao Chan who turned all beings upside down and achieved the change of Chang'an with the power of one person.
There are many beauties in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Cai Yong, Zhen Mi, Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, are all stunning beauties, but Diao Chan is praised as the first beauty in the Eastern Han Dynasty in the history books, and it is natural to say not only her beauty, but also her deeds.
Ancient and modern, a woman, as long as her beauty is associated with the major events of the court, will give people an impression of overturning the country and the city. (To be continued)
