Chapter 143: Fraud and Surrender
The distance that Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and the others retreated was outside the range of Puguan, and ordinary crossbowmen could not shoot at them at this distance.
But it is not excluded that some of the innate gods or arm strength of the generals can shoot farther arrows, Zhang Xiu has been practicing spearmanship, although the martial arts can not be regarded as a first-class general, but the marksmanship has been superb, the practice of guns is just about the improvement of arm strength.
Zhang Xiu pulled out a big bow and looked at Hou Cheng with a smug face, suddenly, he looked at Lu Bu again, and said in his heart, even if he shoots this guy who is not in the stream, it will not matter to Lu Bujun, but Lu Bu is different, even if he is shot and injured, for Lu Bujun, in terms of morale, it will inevitably be hit.
The arrogance of Lu Bujun must be suppressed!
Zhang Yang, Zhang Ji and the others didn't notice Zhang Xiu's actions, their minds were all on Lu Bu's body at the moment, this tiger, with its recent strong rise and domineering as always, made the world look at each other, which made them feel even more afraid.
Lu Bu looked at the city head coldly, wanting to persuade Zhang Yang and the others to give up their senseless resistance, submit to him, and avoid a big war.
"Die!" Zhang Xiu cursed in a low voice, and used all his strength to pull the big bow off.
Suddenly, only a piercing sound was heard in the air, and a sharp arrow full of fangs shot at Lu Bu, rubbing against the air, flashing countless sparks.
The two sides were confronting each other, except for the constant dialogue between the main generals, the scene was quiet, Lu Bu himself was a marksman, and he had an extraordinary sensitivity to the sound of arrows, he sneered. Eyes like eagles. Search for arrows in the air.
They have retreated beyond range. Ordinary sharp arrows can't hurt them, and according to Lu Bu's sensitive judgment, this sharp arrow is not shot by ordinary archers, but definitely shot by a powerful general.
"Big brother be careful!" Zhang Liao, Hou Cheng and others obviously also discovered that someone in the city wanted to plot against Lu Bu.
Lu Bu laughed, full of disdain for this arrow, raised his hand to grab it, and grasped this poisonous arrow softly in his hand, an arrow beyond the range. The power was weakened a lot in the air, and Zhang Xiu's arm strength did not reach the level of a first-class general, so for Lu Bu, it was not lethal.
"Humph! Carving insect skills, dare to use it to show ugliness! Lu Bu held the sharp arrow in his hand and said sarcastically.
"Click!" The sharp arrow was pinched off by Lu Bu, and then, the part that was held in Lu Bu's hand was broken and crushed by Lu Bu. Sprinkle into the sky.
Zhang Liao, Hou Cheng and others cheered and shouted after seeing the amazing force displayed by Lu Bu.
Zhang Yang, Zhang Ji, Xu Huang and others on the city tower were stunned. Zhang Xiu was almost so angry that he vomited blood, his strength was in front of Lu Bu, and he was vulnerable!
This arrow, instead of hitting the morale of Lu Bujun, caused his own morale to plummet!
Stealing chickens doesn't make rice!
"Uncle Childish! Who is plotting against me? Is it General Xu Gongming, or is there someone else? Lu Bu asked with a smile, he blamed Xu Huang for this arrow in his heart, because in the Zhang Yang camp, except for Xu Huang, no one else seems to be able to shoot this arrow, but Xu Huang's personality doesn't seem to be like doing this kind of thing, reflecting on it, the battlefield is cruel, what will not happen?
Zhang Yang, Zhang Ji, and Yang Feng looked at each other, looked at Xu Huang on the side, and saw that Xu Huang looked dazed, not like a person who put cold arrows, and they turned their heads to look at Zhang Xiu again, and sure enough, Zhang Xiu was holding a big bow, his eyes were round, and he looked at the city angrily.
Who else would Zhang Xiu be if it weren't for Zhang Xiu!?
Zhang Xiu was so angry that he smoked, he was ridiculed and sarcastic by Lu Bu when he didn't shoot, but he was already faceless, but now he was ignored by Lu Bu, which was really annoying.
Xu Huang glanced at Zhang Xiu with disdain, poked his head out, looked at Lu Bu coldly, and said loudly: "Wen Hou, if I shoot this arrow, do you still have the life to stand here and talk to me!" ”
Strong self-confidence and provocation, this sentence not only offended Lu Bujun, but also made Zhang Xiu ashamed, Xu Huang, what do you mean by this? Are you saying I'm not as good as you!
Hou Cheng, Cheng Lian and others were furious, and scolded Xu Huang for being arrogant, but Zhang Liao and Lu Bu were not annoyed and looked at the city tower calmly.
waited until the voice gradually subsided, Lu Bu said: "I don't want Gongming's ability to be so powerful, it really makes Bu admire!" Gongming, a thousand-mile horse, must have Bole to discover and appreciate, he can travel thousands of miles a day, become a famous horse, you follow these people, what is the way out, why not join us, how? Yang Feng! You are also a person who has received the emperor's favor in the world, you don't want to serve the country, but you dare to resist the teacher of the Son of Heaven, do you really want to rebel! ”
"Ladies and gentlemen! I am ordered by the Son of Heaven to crusade against the ministers who do not order, if there is resistance, it will be regarded as a rebellion, and it will not matter if you kill it, even the nine clans, you think about it carefully, Dong Zhuo, although he is my father-in-law, but he often has the heart of usurpation, the Son of Heaven issued an edict to me, and a few days ago, I killed him! ”
In a few simple words, Lu Bu not only revealed the meaning of surrendering and avoiding death, but also expressed his determination to kill decisively.
Those who oppose me prosper, and those who follow me die!
Zhang Yang, Zhang Ji and others were shocked when they heard this, Dong Zhuo died?! The news they got before was that Dong Zhuo was under house arrest by Lu Bu, and Lu Bu borrowed the name of the Son of Heaven and Dong Zhuo to gather the army and gather the forces of all parties.
How could they not hear Dong Zhuo's intention to surrender, but Yuan Shao's army of Zhang He, who was stationed in Shangjun, would cross the Yellow River at any time and attack Guannei, with Yuan Shao's strength, dealing with Lu Bu was as simple as pinching an ant to death, and the difference in strength between the two was too far.
They are now undecided, not knowing which side to take.
"Zhang Taishou, what do you think?" As soon as Yang Feng heard the order of the Son of Heaven, his heart was stunned, and then he looked at the majestic appearance of Lu Bu's army, he had long wanted to open the city gate and lead the army to surrender, but the city defense of Puguan was decided by Zhang Yang, if he dared to move, he would die very miserably!
Besides, now they are people in the same boat, if they can't reach an agreement with each other, they will get into infighting, and Lu Bu will take advantage of the chaos, and the treatment of surrendering then and surrendering now will be different.
Zhang Ji twitched his cheeks and asked him to surrender to this former colleague, he really didn't want to, he could only hope that Zhang He's army would arrive quickly and help them defeat Lu Bu together.
"Bongxian! Shall we discuss? Zhang Yang saw everyone bowing their heads and pondering, and immediately said.
Lu Bu listened to Zhang Yang's words and was relieved, his heart was overjoyed, he generously promised, and gave Zhang Yang a day of grace, then turned around and ordered a large retreat, retreated to Zhang Liao's camp to rest, and waited for Zhang Yang's reply.
The wolf cavalry and the infantry army fought all night, the people were sleepy and the horses were lacking, if it was a strong attack at this time, there would be heavy casualties, it was better to go back to rest, on the one hand, let Zhang Yang lower his vigilance, on the other hand, let the soldiers rest and prepare to forcibly attack the city.
Looking at the tide of Lu Bujun's slow retreat, Zhang Yang, Zhang Ji and others breathed a sigh of relief.
When everyone returned to the Taishou Mansion, everyone was worried, worried about when Zhang He's army would be able to feel it, and they were thinking about Lu Bu's words, whether to surrender or not?
"Just now I learned the news that Lu Bu led the army to kill, so I ordered someone to cross the river to inform General Zhang He, hoping that he could send troops in time to cross the river to rescue us and others." Zhang Yang told his arrangement.
Yang Feng glanced at Zhang Yang and said calmly: "The strong dragon can't suppress the ground snake!" Even if General Zhang He led his troops over, he might not be able to defeat Lu Bu, if Yuan Shao came in person, there might be hope! ”
Zhang Ji laughed secretly, "Hmph! Yuan Shao is in person, what kind of person is Yuan Shao? When he was begging Dong, he was the leader of the alliance, and now, he is the overlord of the north, and his strength is strong, even Yuan Shu, Cao Cao and others can't compare, if he comes, don't say that to eliminate a Lu Bu, it is to take Hanzhong and Xiliang by taking advantage of the situation, and it is not impossible! ”
Zhang Yang shook his head, "Brother Zhang Ji can't help but think too much about Yuan Shao, when Yuan Shao is begging Dong Shao, and if he fights Lu, they are two different situations, the former, the people of the world support Yuan Shao together, not Yuan Shao's strength alone, the latter, Lu Bu is more terrible than Dong Zhuo, he can lie dormant by Dong Zhuo's side for so long, the city government and scheming will never be much weaker than Yuan Shao!" ”
Zhang Ji's eyes widened, "What does Uncle Zhi mean?" Are you going to surrender? Yuan Shaodu has already sent a large army to support us, but you are going to retreat from the battle, after Yuan Shao's army defeats Lu Bu, will he let you go? ”
Zhang Yang said a word, Zhang Ji said a word, and the two began to fight to the end for surrendering Lu Bu or fighting to the death, waiting for Zhang He's army, arguing, and for a while, they were angry and nervous.
Because Zhang Xiu was humiliated by Lu Bu, she was always sullen, sitting in her seat, drinking stuffy wine, and had no intention of interfering in the argument between the two.
Yang Feng has never had any strategy, and when he heard Zhang Ji say this, he felt that it was better to fight to the death, but after listening to Zhang Yang's analysis of Yuan Shao's disadvantages and Lu Bu's advantages, he thought about it and felt that surrendering Lu Bu was the best policy.
Xu Huang sat calmly in his seat, considering the meaning of Lu Bu's words, and hearing the chatter and argument between the two, he was also irritable, and suddenly slapped the case, "Don't quarrel, I have an idea, and I will definitely solve your opinions!" ”
Zhang Ji and Zhang Yang were stunned, Yang Feng, Zhang Xiu, Yang Chou and others looked at Xu Huang one after another, thinking that he would have what ideas he would have as a general?
Everyone hurriedly asked Xu Huang what he thought.
Xu Huang's eyes flashed, "Since Lu Bu thinks so much, we will be arrested, then we will play a surrender plan!" ”
Zhang Ji and Zhang Yang were a little surprised at first, and then woke up.
Zhang Xiu's eyes were full of brilliance, Xu Huang couldn't help but be strong in martial arts, and his strategy was slightly better than everyone else, a general's talent!
Xu Huang: "We can send people to the Lu Bu military camp to sue for peace, pretend to surrender, and then ask him to lead the army into the city, take over the city defense and other work, and wait until he leads the army into the city halfway, close the city gate, sandwich their vanguard between the inner city and the outer city, and then use fire, sharp arrows, to destroy it, if Lu Bu is fooled, the first to enter the city, then unless he has wings, he will die!" ”
"Good plan! Good plan! What Gongming said is very true, so we used a trick to trick Lu Bu into the city, and then destroyed this tiger! Zhang Ji, Zhang Yang and others all agreed with Xu Huang's plan. (To be continued......)
