Chapter 169: Trouble
At night.
The atmosphere was very weird, Lu Bu and Xun Yu were like old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years, and they chatted very happily.
Thousands of Cao soldiers trembled, not daring to take a step closer to Lu Bu, and the crossbowmen on the city tower sent several rounds of arrow raindown, but they did not hurt Lu Bu at all.
Several pro-soldiers held shields in front of Xun Yu, for fear that Lu Bu would throw a halberd and stab Xun Yu to death.
Lu Bu looked up to the sky and smiled, "Wen Ruo, what do you think, if you agree, you will be the prime minister of my Han Dynasty!" Cao Cao is just a thief, why should you follow him to rebel and bear the infamy of the ages? โ
In a few simple words, Lu Bu directly branded Cao Cao as an anti-thief, in fact, the letters issued by Lu Bu to the counties also labeled Cao Cao as an anti-thief.
Cao Bing was a little trembling up and down, and his eyes glanced at Xun Yu with a vague look, it was certain that if Xun Yu promised Lu Bu, there was no guarantee that someone would stab Xun Yu to death with a gun.
Xun Yu secretly complained in his heart, his face was hot, and he scolded angrily: "You Lu Bu is a thief, holding the Son of Heaven hostage, plotting against him, killing his father twice, being unkind, unrighteous and unfilial, under the Lang Lang Qiankun, you Lu Bu will die without a place to be buried." โ
Lu Bu looked at Xun Yu with his eyes and said, "Wen Ruo, what's wrong with you?" Didn't we say okay, you will support Yu Ban and Lejin, let me in to attack the city, and then lead the people to surrender? Why has it changed again now? Is someone threatening you? โ
Xun Yu almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, eager to find a sword to stab Lu Bu with a thousand holes, and just wanted to speak, but found that his eyes around him flickered a little.
"Killโโ!"
"Killโโ!"
Outside the city, shouting and killing made a great effort, shaking the heavens and the earth, and breaking the night. Cao Bing was stunned at first. And then there was great joy. They all raised their halberds and shouted: "General Yu and General Le have come back, brothers, don't be afraid, let's kill!" โ
"Those who kill Lu Bu will be rewarded!"
"Don't miss your chance! Brothers, kill! โ
Cao Bing, who was still a little afraid, suddenly had a great morale, raised his gun and waved his knife, and shouted and pounced on Lu Bu.
Damn it. Yu Ban and Le Jin, the two bastards, actually came back so quickly!
Lu Bu scolded indignantly, hurriedly turned his horse, and said to the city tower: "Wen Ruo, it's too late if you don't leave, come down quickly, I'll take you away!" โ
"Die!" Xun Yu's face was pale, he snatched a bow and arrow from a crossbowman, and shot at Lu Bu, but unfortunately Xun Yu was a scholar and his arm strength was too poor. The sharp arrow he shot swayed in the air, and when he was fifty steps away from Lu Bu, he landed on the ground.
"Ahh Wen Ruo, your arrow is so powerful, I am injured, you take care. Lu Bu pretended to cover his chest, acting in pain, and brandished Fang Tian's halberd with his other hand to kill a bloody path.
Xun Yu was so angry that he trembled, and shouted: "Kill me, kill Lu Bu, Wanhu Hou, daughter!" โ
Cao Bing didn't need to be stimulated, and they were all very desperate to slash and kill Lu Bu.
In Puyang City, the treasury of money, grain, and equipment was burned, and the mansions of those wealthy merchants were not spared, and there was chaos in the city, and the Lu Bu army was divided into several squads to set fire everywhere, causing chaos, although there were many Cao soldiers, but they couldn't figure out the situation of the Lu Bu army, plus Xun Yu was a scribe and didn't know how to command the army to fight.
As a result, the Cao army lacked unified and effective command, and was killed by Lu Bu's army and lost his armor.
South Gate.
Yu Ban rushed back with a team of elite soldiers like the wind and fire, and the beads of sweat on his rough face were like rain, wetting the heavy armor.
He was rushing to Xu County with a large army, and suddenly received a message from Xun Yu's order, so shocked that he hurriedly led the army back, looking at the blazing Puyang City, Yu Ban was anxious.
The same is true of the north gate, Le Jin rode a horse, and led the team to pounce back with murderous spirit, pointing directly at Puyang City.
Their two soldiers and horses shouted one after another, making earth-shaking sounds in solidarity with the Cao soldiers in the city.
The scouts of the Lu Bu army had already discovered their return and hurriedly sent a warning to the brothers in the city.
"Withdraw!"
"That's it, brothers, leave with me!"
The scattered Lu Bujun left the devastated Puyang City and gathered towards the east gate, coming like a tiger and a wolf, and going like a thunderbolt.
"Damn, they want to run, brothers, kill! Don't let them go! โ
"There is a reward for killing the enemy!"
Cao Bing was killed by Lu Bujun's army, and he was very aggrieved in his heart, and finally waited for the reinforcements to return, and his murderous spirit was shocked, so he was naturally unwilling to let go of the opportunity to counterattack, and shouted to snipe Lu Bujun.
Another bloody battle.
Lu Bu brandished Fang Tian's halberd, the red rabbit horse galloped all the way, colliding with Cao Bing, and some Cao Bing, who was not long-sighted, wanted to fight with Lu Bu, usually only one end, a halberd stabbed to death.
Outside the east gate, Chen Gong and Zhang Miao anxiously waited for Lu Bujun to come out.
"Gongtai!" Hao Meng and Cheng Lian led the troops to kill.
"Where's the temperature?" Chen Gong looked left and right, but did not see Lu Bu's figure.
"The eldest brother seems to have gone to the Taishou Mansion to catch Xun Yu!" Hao Meng said.
"Catch Xun Yu?" Chen Gong blinked, "Wen Hou is really good"
As the shouting and killing sound approached, Chen Gong said worriedly: "Yu Ban and Le Jin are about to be killed, and it will be too late if they don't leave, Wen Hou, hurry up!" โ
The soldiers of the trapped camp and the infantry army almost all rushed to the east gate, and in addition to some who were killed or wounded in battle and could not move forward, there were about 2,000 people.
"Dada!"
The crisp sound of horses' hooves and wails was heard.
"Big brother is here!" Hao Meng said in surprise.
Chen Gong waved his hand, "The whole army should withdraw quickly!" โ
A large group of Cao soldiers rushed in, "Poofโโ! Lu Bu leaped on his horse, and Fang Tian's halberd stabbed out the phantom of the Dao, and the flesh and blood splashed, blurring the ground, and breaking a way alive.
Lu Bu and Chen Gong and others converged in one place.
"Have you all arrived?" Lu Bu asked.
"It's over, every squad of soldiers has arrived." Chen Gong replied.
"Okay, let's go!" Lu Bu Da said with a smile.
A large group of soldiers and horses quickly rushed towards the night, leaving behind a blazing Puyang City.
Yu Ban and Le Jin rushed into the city, but they did not find the shadow of Lu Bujun. Hurriedly rushed to the Taishou Mansion. The two teams gathered. Greeted each other a few words and looked at the Taishou Mansion.
The Taishou Mansion was reduced to nothingness in the fire, and only the main gate was intact.
"Xun Junshi, where did you go?" Yu Ban asked a soldier.
"Back to the general's words, my subordinates don't know." The creeps trembled.
"Rubbish!" Yu Ban scolded angrily, his eyes scanned the mess of the Taishou Mansion, they were the generals appointed by Cao Cao to guard Yanzhou, and now Yanzhou is constantly being attacked. Puyang City was burned beyond recognition, which made them how to return to Cao Cao.
Le Jin rode on the horse and said: "Send some soldiers and horses to quickly put out the fire, in addition, reconnoiter the whereabouts of the enemy, once you find it, immediately chase after it, don't run away Lu Bu!" โ
"No!"
As he was talking, Le Jin found that the entire Taishou Mansion was burned out of shape, but the main gate was intact. By the light of the fire, he found that the plaque of the Taishou Mansion was missing.
"Someone. Light up there for me! Le Jin said, pointing to the location of the plaque.
"No!" The two soldiers hurriedly stepped forward, the firelight approached, and four big characters loomed.
"Cao Cao's mound?" Le Jin was surprised and almost fell off his horse.
Yu Ban was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly looked at it, his heart churning, "Quickly chisel it down for me!" Chisel it for me! โ
The soldiers hurriedly stepped forward to dig the door.
"Shame! What a shame! Le Jin and Yu Ban beat their chests and scolded.
If Cao Cao knew about this matter, he would not be angry to death, and as the generals who stayed behind, they would be unable to escape the blame.
Xun Yu returned to the Taishou Mansion under the protection of a group of guards, and saw that Le Jin and Yu Ban were angry, so he hurriedly stepped forward, without waiting to speak, he saw Cao Cao's mound, four words, and he was shocked into a cold sweat.
"Lu Bujun is heading towards the east gate!" Several generals hurriedly came to report.
"Give me chase!"
Le Jin yelled.
"Lu Bu, if you are caught by me, I will definitely break your body into ten thousand pieces!"
Yu Ban said angrily.
Thousands of Cao soldiers rushed out from the east gate and chased Lu Bu directly, Puyang City left some Cao soldiers to fight the fire, Le Jin and Yu Ban chased them, Xun Yu was a literati and did not chase him.
Lu Bu and his party ran wildly for dozens of miles, and the shouts of killing behind them were still continuous, only to see a little bit of fire constantly approaching.
"Wen Hou, it must be Yu Ban and Le Jin who led the troops to chase after them, this time, we did so much, they must be angry." Chen Gong rubbed his beard and said.
"The brothers fought all night and were very tired, and several of them fell to the ground from exhaustion." Hao Meng looked around.
Lu Budao: "We can't stop, we are now in the tiger's den, surrounded by tigers, once they surround us, there will be no place to die." โ
"In that case, let's change directions, Wen Hou, didn't you say that you want to use the power of Beihai Kong Rong."
Chen Gong said.
"That's right, let's go to Beihai to have a look, most of them will go north, and I will lead some brothers with good physical strength to lead Yu Ban and Lejin!"
Lu Bu said.
"No!" Hao Meng, Cheng Lian and others clasped their fists and said.
A part of the soldiers, led by Lu Bu, rushed towards the east, leaving a footprint.
Chen Gong and the others rushed to the north, cautious along the way, not daring to leave traces to be discovered by Cao Bing.
Stay until dawn.
Yu Ban and Le Jin were chasing people who were sleepy and lacking, and they hadn't caught up with Lu Bujun yet, and the two of them scolded Lu Bu angrily.
At this time, a scout hurriedly reported: "Qiqi two generals, someone found that a large number of soldiers and horses appeared in the north, it may be Lu Bu's army, and their direction seems to be Beihai." โ
"Beihai?" Yu Ban and Le Jin glanced at each other.
"Damn, we were tricked, Lu Bu must have been suspicious, the main force went to the North Sea, and some soldiers pretended to lead us to the east." Yu Ban scolded angrily.
A bright light flashed in Le Jin's mind, "Could it be that Kong Rong's sour Confucianism has formed an alliance with Lu Bu?" โ
"It's impossible, Beihai can't protect itself now, how can Kong Rong form an alliance with Lu Bu?" Yu Ban was surprised.
"Anyway, let's go back and discuss it with Xun Junshi!" Lejin said.
"Yes, go back to Puyang!" In the forbidden road.
The two immediately returned to Puyang with their troops. (To be continued......)
