Chapter Seventy-Five: The Eighteen Towns Princes Attack
The light moon is long, and she is very gentle.
The night sky is surrounded by fog and stars, which is very poignant.
When the army arrived at the Tiger Prison Pass, it was late at night, and the Tiger Prison Pass was subordinate to the defense of Xingyang, so the Bingzhou army easily entered the Tiger Prison, and after taking over the city defense of the Tiger Prison, Lu Bu had already fallen tired on the low couch.
The night was quiet, and Lu Bu lay on the bed and fell into deep thought, he thought of Cao Cao, who assassinated Dong Zhuo.
In his previous life, Lu Bu felt that Cao Cao's assassination of Dong Zhuo was a matter of righteousness, and the heroes of the world also regretted and ridiculed Cao Cao's attempt to assassinate Dong Zhuo, but after two lives, Lu Bu, who had already understood Cao Cao's person, found that things were not as simple as he thought.
Cao Cao's initial ambition was to support the Han family and help the generals of the building, but he had seen all the internal strife in the court, and gradually lost his original ambition for the Han Dynasty and began to have different ambitions.
Regarding Cao Cao's assassination of Dong Zhuo, Lu Bu made two assumptions, one was that if Cao Cao did not assassinate Dong Zhuo, he would continue to be his Xiaocai lieutenant in obscurity, but this did not match his ambition. Second, if Cao Cao's assassination of Dong Zhuo succeeds, he will only sacrifice himself to make wedding dresses for Wang Yun, Yuan Shao and others. Neither of these results was what the scheming and changeable Cao Cao wanted, and he could curry favor with the people after he stabbed and sacrificed his sword, and was able to quickly win over a group of people, such as Li Dian, Le Jin, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Hong, Cao Ren and other heroes.
Since Dong Zhuo monopolized the Beijing Division, he used bloody means to quickly control the entire Luoyang, Wang Yun and others were afraid of Dong Zhuo's obscenity, and only dared to hide at home and sobbed quietly, and finally Cao Cao volunteered at Wang Yun's birthday banquet to be willing to borrow the seven-star sword to cut off Dong Zhuo's head, and Wang Yun was also impressed by Cao Cao's generous statement, and thought that the sky descended from the sky, so he did not hesitate to take the knife to help. Don't you know that he has fallen for Cao Cao's tricks.
In the last life, Lu Bu was with Dong Zhuo all the year round, and he knew that Dong Zhuo's eagle dogs were all over Chang'an, how could he not know that Wang Yun had a seven-star treasure knife.
When Dong Zhuo was resting, Cao Cao, who knew that he had a rearview mirror, drew a knife at Dong Zhuo, who was not yet asleep, and it was obvious that he deliberately let Dong Zhuo see that he was going to draw a knife. Cao Cao knew that Dong Zhuo was greedy by nature, so he borrowed a seven-star treasure knife from Wang Yun and offered it devoutly, so that Dong Zhuo could not refuse, and finally before Dong Zhuo could react, Cao Cao quickly left Xiangguo's mansion, pretending to be weak-hearted, and fled in a hurry.
Cao Cao's move gained two benefits, he not only gained fame, but also provoked the relationship between Dong Zhuo and Wang Yun.
Because he knew that Wang Yun was a super fat moth of the Han Dynasty, he hoarded treasures, hid Jiaojiao in the golden house, and Dong Cheng, who was a concubine in the back, were all fake loyal ministers who desperately defended their interests. The reason why it is said that the Eastern Han Dynasty should be destroyed, in addition to the emperor's mediocrity and incompetence, is also because none of the court officials are clean, they are all raccoon dogs, and Cao Cao's ambition in his heart began to change after seeing through this.
Lu Bu opened his eyes, rubbed his sour eyes, and drew a beautiful arc at the corner of his mouth: "Meng De, in fact, you and I are the same kind of people, if you and I join forces, why worry about the world is uncertain, and big things will not happen, but there is only one Lu Bu in the world, and there is only one Cao Cao, and only one person is destined to survive in the world, and this person is destined to be my Lu Bu." ”
In fact, in Lu Bu's heart, he really wanted to be a confidant with Cao Cao, but because of the troubled times, they were destined to be enemies in both the previous life and this life.
Lu Bu pillowed his hands under his head, raised his eyes to look at the colorful patterns on the top of the big tent, and muttered to himself: "Meng De, who will die in this life, let's see." ”
There was no word all night, and the sky gradually dawned.
The delicate morning sun is rising, and the red glow is overflowing, and the sunlight piercing the clouds is like a golden thread, crisscrossing and crisscrossing the light gray and blue gray clouds into a beautiful pattern.
After Lu Bu saw off his wife and daughter, he received a letter from Dong Zhuo, and when he read the contents, Lu Bu didn't speak, he just threw the bamboo slip into the moat in front of the Tiger Prison Pass.
In the first month of 190 AD, Cao Cao attempted to assassinate Dong Zhuo, ran back to Chenliu in the starry night, and drafted a document to fight against thieves overnight, inviting the world's heroes to crusade against Dong Zhuo together.
For a time, the world's heroes have responded, the princes of the eighteen towns gathered in the sour jujube blood alliance, the first town, the general Nanyang Taishou Yuan Shu, the second town Jizhou Thorn Shi Han Fu, the third town Yuzhou Thorn Shi Kong Ling, the fourth town Yanzhou Thorn Shi Liu Dai, the fifth town Hanoi County Taishou Wang Kuang, the sixth town Chen Liutai Shou Zhang Miao, the seventh town Dongjun Taishou Qiao Mao, the eighth town Shanyang Taishou Yuan Yi, the ninth town Jibei Xiang Bao Xin, the tenth town Beihai Taishou Kong Rong, the eleventh town Guangling Taishou Zhang Chao, the twelfth town Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian, the thirteenth town Xiliang Taishou Ma Teng, The 14th town of Beiping is too shou Gongsun Zhan, the fifteenth town is too shou Zhang Yang, the 16th town of Wucheng Hou Changsha is too shou Sun Jian, the 17th town of Qi Township Hou Bohai is too shou Yuan Shao, plus Cao Cao's headquarters of soldiers and horses, a total of 300,000 soldiers and horses, the front of the soldiers pointed directly at the tiger prison.
Lu Bu stood on top of the Eternal Xiongguan, staring into the distance with deep eyes, he seemed to see the mountains and fields full of allied soldiers, but he was not afraid, but a little expectant, because he had been waiting for this moment for a long, long time.
Lu Bu thought of Dong Zhuo's letter to him again, in addition to saying that Lu Bu should be stationed at the Tiger Prison Pass, he also ordered Hua Xiong to lead 50,000 Xiliang troops to help, among which Lu Bu was most excited was that Jia Xu would actually come, Jia Xu, Lu Bu had not met him for a long time, during this period, although they also exchanged letters, but Lu Bu was still very much looking forward to meeting Jia Xu.
Because Jia Xu was very important in Lu Bu's heart, he not only prepared a strategy for Lu Bu to fight for hegemony, but also sent Huang Zhong, a first-class general, to Lu Bu, if Huang Zhong had not joined, he would not have met Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Wei Yan and Jiang Qin. So he was very grateful to Jia Xu.
At the same time, he is also looking forward to it, he is looking forward to joining forces with Jia Xu to make the princes of the eighteen towns return, in Lu Bu's heart, among the princes of the eighteen towns, only Cao Cao and Liu Bei, who joined later, are his real enemies, this time it is best to kill the two of them, even if they can't be killed, they have to take off a layer of skin, let them see, and return the hatred of the previous life to them.
(To be continued)
ps: Finally to the first battle of the troubled times at the end of the Han Dynasty, I am a little looking forward to it, but also a little afraid, I am afraid that I will not write well and let everyone down. But I believe that I will restore a bloody battle of Tiger Prison Pass to everyone, so I still brazenly ask for recommendations, ask for collections, your encouragement is my motivation, Shiro thank you here.
