After Huang Zhong heard Lu Bu's words, he asked with a surprised face: "Wen Hou came to take over my attack on Xiapi, why didn't I receive any news before?" ”

Lu Bu smiled when he heard this: "Then I'm now, isn't this informing you?" ”

Huang Zhong looked at Lu Bu's appearance, then frowned and continued to ask, "Then does Wen Hou have a letter or an order from the young general?" ”

"No, I'm revengeful, so I didn't bring this thing." Lu Bu said with a light smile.

At this time, Huang Zhong looked at Xu Huang and Le Jin beside him, and was a little undecided for a while.

Xu Huang thought about it, and whispered in Huang Zhong's ear: "Hansheng, I'd rather believe it than believe it!" ”

Huang Zhong thought about it, so he said to Lu Bu: "Since this is the case, then our army will withdraw for thirty miles, and then Picheng will be handed over to Wenhou to attack!" ”

Lu Bu originally wanted to deceive Huang Zhong and leave the 100,000 Cao troops together.

But as soon as he thought that these Cao Jun might not listen to him in the future, he dispelled this idea.

Lu Bu continued to Huang Zhong: "The young general has captured Pengcheng, he asked the general to bring the troops back to Pengcheng, he has further arrangements!" ”

"Really?" Huang Zhong frowned when he heard this, he also knew that after Cao Ang conquered Xuzhou, he would go to sea to support Dongying's Evil Horse Taiguo.

So after he heard Lu Bu's words, he didn't doubt anything, just nodded and said: "Okay, thank you Marquis Wen for coming to inform the last general of this news, tomorrow I will return to Pengcheng with my troops, and then Cao Bao in Picheng will be handed over to Wen Hou." ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" Lu Bu smiled slightly: "This was originally my territory, and I have been in business for so many years, so I naturally know everything about it, so General Huang can rest assured." ”

……

The next day, Huang Zhong really withdrew his troops and returned to Pengcheng.

And after Huang Zhong left, Lu Bu led his troops to Xiapi City.

"Cao Bao, when you trapped me on the outskirts of Xiapi City that day, did you ever think that there would be today?" Lu Bu was outside the city, with 10,000 soldiers, with a proud appearance, shouting to Cao Bao on the city wall.

And after Cao Bao heard Lu Bu's voice, he retorted loudly: "Lu Bu, you don't have to be arrogant, when my lord comes to support me with troops, it will be when you are in a different place!" ”

After hearing Cao Bao's words, Lu Bu laughed loudly: "Cao Bao, Cao Bao, you are still dreaming here, Ben Hou can appear here, it means that Pengcheng has been attacked by Cao Ang!" ”

"As for your father-in-law, I heard that Cao Ang didn't catch him, nor did he find his body, so there is a high probability that he ran away, and you are just an outcast, so ah, what else are you resisting, hurry up!"

After Cao Bao heard Lu Bu's words, his face became ugly.

However, at this time, he had already believed Lu Bu's words, after all, Cao Ang was not here, which meant that the other party was attacking Pengcheng.

With the defenders in Pengcheng, it is simply a fool's dream to defend against the attack of the hundreds of thousands of troops under Cao Ang.

Thinking of this, Cao Bao really wanted to surrender.

It's just that because of his siege of Lu Bu before, he is still a little worried that Lu Bu will settle accounts after the fall.

For a while, Cao Bao also fell into a dilemma.

Lu Bu seemed to see through what Cao Bao was thinking, so he continued to speak.

"Cao Bao, you don't have to worry, as long as you are willing to surrender to me, then in the future, you will continue to be your general, and your treatment will be the same as when you were a general under Tao Qian, how about it?"

When Cao Bao heard this, he asked a little hesitantly: "Wen Hou, what you said is true?" ”

At this time, Cao Bao's address to Lu Bu changed from calling him by his name to Wen Hou.

Lu Bu smiled when he heard this: "Naturally, it's true, besides, now, do you have any other options besides surrendering?" ”

Cao Bao knew that if he was resisting, waiting for him would only die.

But if you surrender, then you still have a chance to live.

After some ideological struggle, Cao Bao decided to take a gamble and surrender!

So Cao Bao personally led people to open the gate of Xiapi City and welcomed Lu Bu into the city.

Lu Bu returned to Xiapi City again, and he was also full of emotion for a while.

Originally, in Xiapi City, they were all his personal soldiers, but now, there was only one cronie left by his side, Gao Shun.

The others, that's all later.

Cao Bao came to Lu Bu and knelt down in front of him, and said, "The sin general Cao Bao has seen Wen Hou. ”

Although Lu Bu wanted to kill Cao Bao in his heart, he knew that these Xuzhou troops who had just surrendered still needed Cao Bao's leadership.

So Lu Bu held back the killing intent in his heart, helped him up, and said with a smile: "General Cao doesn't have to be like this, since I said that I am not to blame for the past, then what happened before will be over." ”

"Thank you, Wenhou!" Cao Bao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and thanked him.

And in Pengcheng, Zhang Liao and Huang Zhong also returned.

Cao Ang saw that Huang Zhong had also returned, and couldn't help but ask in surprise: "Han Sheng, why did you come back too, could it be that Xia Pi captured it?" ”

"Huh? Didn't you ask me to come back, Major General? Huang Zhong asked in surprise, and then told Cao Ang all the things that Lu Bu told him.

After Zhang Liao heard Huang Zhong's words, he also told him what happened between himself and Lu Bu.

After listening to the words of these two generals, Cao Ang also laughed.

"I didn't expect that, after so many years of hard work, Lu Bu, a reckless man, will also be tricky!"

Huang Zhong was also very annoyed when he learned that he had been deceived by Lu Bu: "This thief Lu Bu actually lied to me!" ”

Cao Ang smiled when he heard this, waved his hand lightly and said, "It's okay, Lu Bu's matter will have to be solved sooner or later, for this guy, if you don't subdue him, he won't easily serve you!" ”

Regarding Huang Zhong's deception, Cao Ang didn't say much.

After all, who would have thought that this Lu Bu, who has always been known as a simple-minded and well-developed limb, would one day make a plan.

After rectifying the Taishan bandits brought back by Zang Ba, there were only 50,000 Taishan bandits left of nearly 300,000 people, and they were accepted as recruits.

And Cao Ang personally led an army of 150,000 troops, with Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, and Zhang Liao, and sent troops to Picheng.

At this time, Lu Bu had completely subdued the Xuzhou army in Xiapi City.

After Cao Ang arrived outside Xiapi City, he came to the city and shouted to Lu Bu.

"Lu Bu, why do you want to live up to my trust and deceive this Picheng?" (End of chapter)
