Chapter 122: Hou Cheng Loses His Horse

This negotiation ended quickly.

Lu Bu refused to exchange Xiapi for his daughter, and Cao Cao didn't bother to pay attention to Lu Bu anymore, and directly led the troops back.

Liu Bei heard that Lu Bu came out to shout, and also came to see what the specific situation was, at this time he saw the towering Xiapi city wall in front of him, they besieged the city for so long, during which they did not try to take the initiative to attack Xiapi except for Lu Bu to marry his daughter for a while.

"Cao Sikong, how do we attack the city?"

This is not the first time Liu Bei has asked this question.

I was very anxious to defeat Xiapi, kill Lu Bu, and then go to fight Yuan Shu, and take the opportunity to divide the territory in Huainan.

It took so long to attack a Xiapi, and he was worried that Huainan's territory would be divided up by Sun Ce and Liu Biao, and he had nothing.

Cao Cao didn't know when he should attack the city, but Chen Zhou said that he had to believe Chen Zhou's words when he waited for the sky, and when he heard the words, he said: "Xuande doesn't have to be in a hurry, Lu Bu is trapped by us, can he still escape?" There's no escape, just wait. ”

Liu Bei had no choice but to continue to go back and wait.

The high and thick city walls of Xiapi are not capable of fighting on his own.

What's more, the people in the city are willing to support Lu Bu to defend the city, they are afraid of Cao Cao, worried that Cao Cao will break the city and slaughter the city, that criminal record can make many people frightened.

"Watayuki, I want to attack the city too!"

Cao Cao was actually a little anxious.

Chen Zhou said: "Don't worry, my lord, I'll go and see Chen Yuanlong later, and then I can determine the time for the siege, and the time we are waiting for is almost up." ”

"Okay, I'll wait a little longer."

Cao Cao still chose to believe.

Without Chen Zhou, he thinks that he has not yet achieved what he is now, and he must be trusted.

Chen Zhou was in Cao Ying and soon found Chen Deng.

"Sir!"

Chen Deng knew that Chen Zhou's ability was very strong and his status was very high, so he warmly invited people in and sat down.

Chen Zhou got straight to the point and said: "I came to Yuanlong to determine one thing, when will Xuzhou enter the rainy season?" I need when it rains heavily in Xuzhou, can Yuanlong give an answer? ”

"Rainy season?"

Chen Deng went out to look at the sky, only to see that the clouds were thick, as if it was going to rain, but it was not enough to rain, and then calculated the time according to the rainy season of previous years, and said: "It should rain in the next three to five days, there is no sign of a major drought this year, and the gap between the specific rain time and my judgment should not be very large." ”

"Three to five days?"

Chen Zhou said: "That's fast, you can wait." ”

Chen Deng asked curiously: "What is the use of Mr. asking this?" ”

"Break the Pi with it!"

Chen Zhou deliberately sold a pass, did not make it clear directly, and said with a smile: "Yuanlong helped me judge the weather, and he also has credit." ”

Chen Deng hesitated and said: "I'm just making a rough judgment, it's not a credit, and it's not clear whether it's accurate or not." ”

"I believe in Yuanlong, accurately!"

Chen Zhou laughed.

After a little more politeness with Chen Deng, he left here and went back to his rear army.

With Mrs. Gan here, Chen Zhou didn't have to pay much attention to Lu Lingqi, just let people watch it, and at this time he went to the tent to take a look, and found that they were chatting very happily, and the relationship was still very good.

Before in Xiapi, Lu Lingqi and Mrs. Gan knew each other.

Now it's a reminiscence.

"What are you talking about?"

Chen Zhou asked when he came in.

Mrs. Gan blushed slightly, embarrassed to look at Chen Zhou.

Lu Lingqi was not used to Chen Zhou, and snorted lightly: "What are we talking about, it has nothing to do with you, our two daughters' homes are here, and you are embarrassed to come in?" ”

"Of course I'm sorry."

Chen Zhou looked at it for a while and said, "This is my place. ”

Lu Lingqi felt that Chen Zhou was going to bully herself again, so she snorted lightly, and then asked, "What are you going to do with me?" When my father comes to save me, he will definitely not let you go, and his Fang Tian painting halberd can knock you away. ”

Chen Zhou didn't want to irritate this girl, but when he heard that she was also threatening herself with Lu Bu, he said: "Just now Lu Bu asked us to negotiate, and we asked Lu Bu to sacrifice Xia Pi in exchange for you to go back, do you know how Lu Bu answered?" ”

Lu Lingqi's eyes rolled, as if she thought of the answer, she could understand her father's approach and understand her father's difficulties, but she was really uncomfortable in her heart, so she didn't answer this question, her nose was sour and she lowered her head.

"Forget it, let's not talk about it."

Chen Zhou was a little sad when he saw her, and he was not too embarrassed to bully her again.

"Rest well!"

Chen Zhou went outside and looked up at the sky again.

Four or five days.

It can almost solve Lu Bu.

However, for the sake of safety, Chen Zhou felt that he would do something more to ensure that the result was completely fine.

After Chen Zhou left, Mrs. Gan smiled and said, "Actually, Mr. is still a very good person. ”

"He's a badass."

Lu Lingqi snorted lightly: "You know how to bully me." ”

——

Hou Cheng was Lu Bu's general.

Not long ago, one of his horses was lost, and he was very anxious, it was a rare good horse, although it was not as powerful as the red rabbit, but it was not much worse, so he made people look for it everywhere.

Fortunately, it was lost in Xiapi City, and after looking for several days, I finally found it.

Hou Cheng was overjoyed, so he wanted to celebrate, so he found two good buddies, Wei Xu and Song Xian, to drink some wine and eat some good meat together to celebrate the recovery of the war horse.

They have a good relationship with Hou Cheng and are happy to celebrate with Hou Cheng.

But I don't know which Erwuzai passed the news of their drinking to Lu Bu.

Lu Bu was furious.

A long time ago, he ordered a ban on alcohol, and also banned wine, even if there was stock, it was not allowed to buy and sell, and now his subordinates dared to drink without themselves, and they came to the door directly.

"Wen ...... Wen Hou! ”

Seeing Lu Bu coming, Hou Cheng's tone of voice was a little stammering.

They all knew about the prohibition of alcohol, but when they were found drinking in private, they panicked, and the three of them stood up in fear.

Lu Bu was so angry that he couldn't vent it recently, and when he saw them like this, he said angrily: "I ordered a ban on alcohol, but you are drinking, is it because our order does not exist?" ”

"No...... Can't! ”

Hou Cheng and the three said in panic.

"Don't dare?"

Lu Bu was even more unhappy, and said coldly: "I don't think there's anything, you don't dare to do it, right?" ”

Seeing that the three of them no longer spoke, Lu Bu snorted coldly and said: "Come on, drag it down, the rod will be punished for twenty, and the three of you, all go outside the city and guard the west gate of the city for me." ”

After speaking, Lu Bu turned around and left.

The guards around him, without saying a word, took them away, pressed them to the ground and beat them severely.

After the fight, regardless of whether their injuries were healed or not, they were sent to the west of the city and stationed in the camp outside the city.

Although the city gate of Xiapi is closed, outside the city, on the bank of the moat, there is still a need for people to garrison, and there are more garrisons near the suspension bridge, and they happen to be arranged in these places.

But staying outside the city is very dangerous.

Although Cao Liu will not attack the city now, who can guarantee that he will not attack all the time?

Once they came, they had to face the enemy first, and because they had offended Lu Bu, they were panicked at this time.
