"Lord!" Zhang Liao and the others saw that Lu Bu was shot dead in front of him, and they were stunned for a moment, and then turned over and dismounted together, and surrounded Lu Bu's corpse and let out a loud cry of grief. On the morning of early summer, it was fast to dawn, and not long after Zhang Liao and the others cried, the surroundings began to gradually brighten. "General, our people are here!" At this time, a sharp-eyed cavalryman noticed that there were several horses galloping from the west, and saw that the equipment was the wolf cavalry of Bingzhou.

"Lord, military advisor, it's not good, Xiaopei was attacked, General Song Xian was captured, and only a few of us escaped from the two thousand defenders." The person who came shouted wildly as he hurried his horse, and it was not until he got close that he found that Lu Bu had died on the ground.

"What?" Zhang Liao and Chen Gong looked at each other, this was really a wave of unsettled waves. "Who attacked me Xiaopei?" Chen Gong asked loudly in a bit of anger, and the person who reported the news was silent for a long time before saying, "We are desperate to kill the news, but I really don't know who it is." ”

"Huh?" Chen Gongzheng was so angry that he was smoking, and at this time, a clear voice came from the city: "It was my subordinate Sima Xu Sheng who led more than 1,000 men and horses, and after you left, used Cao Bao to deceive the gate of Xiaopei, and then attacked Xiaopei." But Chen Gongtai, it's too late for you to go back and recapture Xiaopei now, and the 10,000 elite soldiers of Sun Guan, the prime minister of Lu State, should be rushing here. It was Zhao Feng who spoke.

"What a ruthless strategy!" After listening to Zhao Feng's words, Chen Gong and Zhang Liao couldn't help but gasp. Originally, I thought I was sneaking up on someone's house, but I didn't expect to be calculated by others from beginning to end. In fact, since Cao Bao sent that letter, everything has been under Zhao Feng's control.

"General Zhang, Mr. Chen. The two are also heroes in the world, General Zhang has always been loyal, and Mr. Chen left him because of Cao Ying's indiscriminate killing of innocents. I would like to ask the two of you, what kind of person is Lu Bu, who killed Ding Yuan for Chitu and Dong Zhuo for women. He came to my Xuzhou in poverty, and we all thought that he was a tiger and wolf, and strongly advised the lord not to take him in. But my lord's mansion is kind-hearted, and Gu Nian'er and others have relieved the siege of Xuzhou for me, so he not only took in Lu Bu, but also allowed him to be stationed in Xiaopei, and there was no shortage of soldiers, horses, money and food. I don't want this wolf to be ambitious, but this time I took advantage of my lord's expedition and led people to take the opportunity to attack my Xuzhou. The two of you say in good conscience, is he innocent? Zhao Feng continued to say loudly, and everyone in the city and the city could hear it clearly, and there was silence for a while.

Zhang Liao and Chen Gong glanced at each other, and they were speechless. At this time, Zhao Feng saw that the fire was almost over, and hurriedly said: "Both of them are heroes of the world, although my lord is not here today, Ran Feng is willing to guarantee with his surname, as long as the two are willing to surrender, my lord will not blame the past." Wouldn't it be a double win for you to be able to join the Lord again and be reunited with your families? ”

"Huh?" Zhang Liao was about to refute, but Chen Gong had already stopped him by the arm, and then sighed: "I'm waiting for the surrender!" "Mr. Gongtai, what are you?" Zhang Liao said urgently. "There's no way, Wen Yuan. Xiao Pei has been lost, and everyone is in Xiao Pei, so there is no will to fight at all. Chen Gong pointed to the soldiers behind him, and said a little gloomily.

"That's true." Zhang Liao was also silent when he saw it. Not only the soldiers, but even several of the eight strong generals also had changed expressions and lost their fighting spirit. What's more, he only has thousands of people around him now, and he is powerless to attack Xuzhou or capture Xiaopei. "I'm waiting for my wish to surrender!" Zhang Liao also said, and then dismounted with Chen Gong to surrender. As soon as the two of them took the lead, Zang Ba, Hou Cheng and others no longer held on, and they all dismounted and surrendered.

With a "crunch", the gate of Xuzhou slowly opened again, Zhao Feng and Chen Deng led the army out, confiscated the weapons of Zhang Liao and others, and then escorted them down, waiting for Liu Bei to come back and send them down. As for Zhang Fei, uh, he's still sleeping.

In the summer of 196 AD, Lü Bu took advantage of Liu Bei's expedition to Yuzhou, and wanted to attack Xuzhou at night with Cao Baoli Yingwai, but was defeated by Zhonglang's general Zhao Feng's design. Lü Bu himself was killed in the city, and his subordinates Bajian and Chen Gong were all surrendered, and the biggest internal trouble in Xuzhou was eliminated.

At this time, Liu Bei, who was on an expedition in Yuzhou, heard Sun Qian's report, and hurriedly returned to the army after being shocked, and ordered Guan Hai to guard Liang State, Mi Fang to guard Pei State, and himself, Guan Yu and Gao Shun led the army to rush back at night. When he rushed to the territory of Lu State, Sun Guan sent someone to report that Xuzhou City was safe and sound, Lu Bu was ambushed, and his subordinates surrendered.

"I didn't expect Bo Tao to be so calm, and let Lu Bu die when he raised his hand." Liu Bei sighed with emotion, Gao Shun beside him heard that Lu Bu was dead, and he had nothing to say when he was already silent.

In Xuzhou City, Zhang Fei, who had just woken up, hurriedly thanked Zhao Feng again and again after learning what had happened: "Zhao boy, it's really thanks to you, otherwise if Xuzhou is lost, my old Zhang will really be ashamed of my eldest brother." I don't know how to thank you for doing me such a great favor this time. If you want, it doesn't matter if I give you the title of Marquis of Xinxiang! ”

"The three generals are serious! Now that the city of Xuzhou has been decided, three generals are still needed to sit in town to appease people's hearts. Mr. Gongyou has gone to the Lord to announce the news, and presumably the Lord will be able to return in the evening. Zhao Feng looked at Zhang Fei with a grateful face in front of him, and couldn't help but feel a little funny in his heart, but he still said with a straight face.

"That's that!" Zhang Fei was now absolutely convinced of Zhao Feng, and suddenly he seemed to think of something else, and hurriedly asked, "Then Lu Bu is really dead?" After receiving affirmative answers from Zhao Feng and Chen Deng, Zhang Fei sighed a little gloomily. Zhao Feng knew that it was a kind of regret for losing his opponent.

In the evening, Liu Bei's army really arrived in Xuzhou, and after everyone received the wind and saluted, Liu Bei listened to Zhao Feng and Chen Deng describe the whole process in detail, and after some sighing, Liu Bei first asked: "Where is Lu Bu's corpse?" ”

"It's been collected, just wait for the lord to come back and see it, and then you can bury it." Chen Dengdao. Liu Bei nodded and said, "Lu Bu is also a masterpiece of a generation, and since he is dead, let's bury him alive." After a pause, he said: "Since his subordinates are willing to surrender, then I should treat them well." So he ordered Chen Gong and the eight generals to come. As for Gao Shun, after Liu Bei and Sun Gan took turns to persuade him on the way, plus he got along for more than two months, and now he can be regarded as a tacit surrender.

After a short time, Chen Gong and other nine people were all brought here, and Liu Bei comforted them with kind words, and promised to take care of Lu Bu's family. Chen Gong and the others saw that Liu Bei was still willing to treat them well, and they all bowed in while grateful. Liu Bei immediately appointed Chen Gong as the commander of Xuzhou, Zhang Liao and others were all partial generals, and immediately held a banquet to entertain them. After a heavy drink, Zhang Liao and the others were satisfied, and they returned home to reunite with their families.

"Bo Tao, I already know everything about this, and I really thank you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid my brothers would be homeless, please bow down to me! After the banquet, Liu Bei specially invited Zhao Feng to his house, and after thanking him, he actually wanted to bow down. was so panicked that Zhao Feng hurriedly bowed down to support him, joking, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu were both by his side, and if he wanted to accept this worship, they wouldn't split themselves.

"The lord's words are heavy, and the matter within the division, I don't know what the situation is in Yuzhou this time?" Zhao Feng was afraid that Lao Liu would come to worship again, so he quickly diverted the topic. "We have captured Peiguo, and the defender Chen Lan was killed by me with one sword, and then pacified Liang State. Just as he was about to attack the county again, Gongyou came to report the news, so he hurried back. Now Zhongfu stayed in Peiguo to prevent Yuan Shu, and Zifang was stationed in Liangguo. Guan Yu said on the side.

"That's good!" Zhao Feng was also very happy to hear that Liu Bei was so smooth. As long as Peiguo is laid, then the road to Yuzhou will be opened to the west. Although only the Liang State has been defeated now, the pacification of other places such as Runan is also just around the corner.

"This wave is a lot of credit, if you don't reward it, it's really hard to feel at ease. In this way, I see that Bo Tao has no place to live, and he lives in the military camp in Pingshu, and now I give you a house in the west of Xuzhou City. Liu Bei finally said. Zhao Feng saw that he couldn't give up, so he finally had to thank him, and moved to his new house that night.

The next day, Zhao Feng and Guan Yu agreed on how to reorganize Lu Bu's surrender army. According to Zhao Feng's meaning, there were not many cavalry in Xuzhou, so the four thousand wolf cavalry in the army should not be dismantled, and it was best to be led directly by Zhang Fei or Guan Yu. Gao Shun's trap camp is also retained, and it is still led by Gao Shun. As for the remaining four or five thousand ordinary soldiers, they were still scattered and incorporated into other units.

"That's great!" Guan Yu also felt that there was nothing wrong with doing this, so he agreed. So after agreeing, he went to the government to meet Liu Bei for discussion. When I got there, I found that the newly descended Xuzhou Don't Drive Chen Gong was also there, and seeing Guan Yu and Zhao Feng coming, Chen Gong was also a little embarrassed, and hurriedly got up and bowed his hand.

"Hmm!" Guan Yu nodded even if he said hello, but Zhao Feng was still meticulous in returning the salute, and Chen Gong smiled and didn't say anything anymore.

"Now that you've arrived, you're ready to speak up. In the previous expedition to the west, we captured Peiguo and Liang Guo, and even killed Yuan Shu's general Chen Lan, I am afraid that Yuan Shu will come to attack my Xuzhou sooner or later, I don't know what you think? Liu Bei asked first.

"Lord, Yuan Shu's intention to annex Xuzhou has long been there, and in the past, it was said that Tao Fujun came to attack from time to time. However, although Xuzhou borders Huainan, as long as the two places of Guangling and Xiapi are guarded, Yuan Shu will not be able to break my Xuzhou. Now Chen Yuanlong is sick here, and he needs to choose someone else to guard Guangling. Mi Zhu said first, and this was unanimously agreed by everyone.

"Not bad! Lord, although my Xuzhou is rich, but now there are only more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, of which General Guan Hai and General Mi Fang have taken away more than 30,000 people to guard Peiguo and Liang Guo, and the remaining Xuzhou is only more than 90,000 people. And Yuan Shu occupies Huainan, the land where grain is produced, and there are no less than 200,000 soldiers and horses under his command, so it is not a big victory with him now. Therefore, it is best for us to focus on defense this year, wait until next month, recruit and train, and then fight Yuan Shu next year. Although Chen Deng coughed repeatedly, he still held on.

"What the two of them said is to emphasize the need to be guarded this year, in this case, there is Xu Sheng guarding the next Pi today, and I don't know who wants to go to Guangling?" Liu Bei groaned. To say that Liu Bei's courage is really not covered, on the way back to the army passed by Xiao Pei when he met Xu Sheng, after learning that he was defrauding Xiao Pei, Liu Bei immediately decided that he was a rare general, and then asked him to take Cao Bao's position as Pi Cheng to guard Xiapi.

"The last will go!" One person stood up proudly and took the initiative to ask for help, but everyone looked at it, but it was Zhang Liao. Liu Bei was also stunned, and then asked with a smile: "I don't know how many soldiers and horses Wenyuan wants?" ”

"Ten thousand is enough!" Zhang Liao was full of confidence, Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "Okay, I'll go with you 10,000 horses to guard Guangling." ”

"Lord!" Jian Yong and Sun Qian said urgently at the same time, although they didn't continue, but the meaning was obvious: Zhang Liao was a newcomer, how could he be allowed to guard an important town like Guangling.

"My lord, General Wenyuan has both civil and military skills, courage and strategy, and he can protect Guangling." At this time, Zhao Feng got up and said, Zhang Liao looked at Zhao Feng in surprise, but there was something indescribable in his eyes. So Liu Bei made a decision on this and agreed to let Zhang Liao go to guard Guangling.

"General Zhao looks up to me Zhang Liao so much, but I don't know why?" After everyone dispersed, Zhang Liao pulled Zhao Feng and asked as he walked.

"What else? It's just a hero who cherishes a hero! Zhao Feng smiled heroically, and Zhang Liao was even more convinced. He didn't know how Zhao Feng calculated in his heart: in history, Zhang Liao used 7,000 people in Hefei to resist Sun Quan's 100,000 army, and now if he can't even handle Yuan Shu, then Zhao Feng's Romance of the Three Kingdoms can be regarded as a vain reading.
