Chapter 123: Against Lu Bu
Hou Cheng and the others were arranged to go to the west of the city, so they had to stay outside the city.
They were worried that they would have to face the Cao army in the west of the city, and they were afraid that when Cao Cao launched a strong attack, they who were defending at the forefront would be killed by the Cao army first, and they were depressed.
On the third day after being arranged outside the city, Song Xian suddenly ran back and said excitedly: "Come on, I received a letter from outside. ”
When Hou Cheng and Wei Xu heard this, they immediately surrounded Song Xian.
Song Xian was very careful, took them to the tent, and looked outside again to make sure that no one was eavesdropping, and then opened the letter and presented it to them.
"It's ...... Cao Cao's letter to persuade us to surrender? ”
Wei Xu exclaimed first.
"That's right!"
Song Xian nodded solemnly and said: "I was patrolling outside, among the Cao army, a small soldier crossed the moat by boat and approached, and I was about to order someone to capture him, but he shot this letter to me and left immediately." ”
Hou Cheng looked at the contents of the letter, Cao Cao's persuasion, and said in silence: "What do you think? ”
Song Xian narrowed his eyes, completely revealed his dissatisfaction with Lu Bu, and said unhappily: "He ordered a ban on alcohol, but he drank in the mansion, don't think I don't know!" Lu Bu is very selfish, and in his eyes, he only has his own family. The wine we drink is just a stock of wine, not a new brew, and it will not waste food, and he will punish us as well, it is better to do the opposite! ”
"I'm for it!"
Wei Xu echoed: "Lu Bu is brutal and unkind, and now he is trapped in Xiapi, and he has no future at all, and he is a traitor who has formed an alliance with Yuan Shu, and I guess Yuan Shu will not last long." Cao Cao was ordered by the Son of Heaven to crusade against the rebels, the momentum was flourishing, the troops were sufficient, and there was great righteousness, which was more than a hundred times better than Lu Bu, so it was better to vote for Cao Cao. ”
"Wouldn't it be inappropriate to do that?"
Hou Cheng hesitated a little and couldn't make a decision for a while.
Song Xian snorted lightly: "There's nothing wrong with it, if you think about being beaten by Lu Bu, you can't even sit down now you can't even sit steadily, isn't it just to drink some wine?" Do you think Lu Bu doesn't drink it himself? I think it's okay to reverse Lu Bu! ”
Wei Xu asked, "General Hou, what about you?" ”
The eyes of both of them looked at Hou Cheng.
Although Hou Cheng hesitated, he seriously thought about their analysis, Lu Bu was indeed difficult to become a climate, and he had just been beaten by Lu Bu, full of dissatisfaction and resentment.
Even if it's the other way around, it's right.
"It's reversed together!"
Hou Cheng thought about it in the end, and decisively agreed, but asked again: "How do we do it?" ”
"Get in touch with Cao Cao's people first."
Song Xian suggested: "Cao Cao asked people to come to contact us, they won't do nothing, see what they want to do, what the plan is." ”
This suggestion was agreed to by the other two.
Anyway, guarding outside the city gate in the west of the city, it was very easy to contact Cao's army on the other side of the moat, which was equivalent to Lu Bu creating a condition for them to surrender to Cao Cao.
——
Chen Zhou was just outside the west of the city, on the bank of the moat, resting in the sentry post.
Chen Deng followed him.
"Sir, do you think Hou Cheng and they will definitely surrender?" Chen Deng asked.
"Definitely!"
Chen Zhou is sure, because that's how history books are written.
He was still worried that he had no conditions to contact Hou Cheng and others, and arranged for someone to contact him, and he couldn't reach out to Xiapi City, just yesterday he suddenly got the news from the soldiers below that there was a change in defense in the west of the city.
When Chen Zhou arrived, he found that the defenders had changed, before the officers were here to guard the city, and now there were a few generals, so he wanted to know who the people who had been replaced.
Except for Gao Shun and Lu Bu's subordinates, he didn't know anyone.
But Chen Deng knew, even if Chen Deng hadn't seen it, his two younger brothers must have seen it, so he found someone to identify it, so it happened that it was Hou Cheng and them, who were thrown out of the city to guard the city.
Under normal circumstances, it is far better to defend the inside of the city than to defend the outside of the city, and if you are not punished, you do not need to go out of the city to protect the city.
Chen Zhou pondered, they couldn't be a horse loss incident, and they were discovered by Lu Bu when they were drinking, right?
Hou Cheng surrendered several people precisely because of the lost horse incident.
So, Chen Zhou didn't care, he contacted them first to see what their attitude was, and then he had the letter.
Chen Deng didn't understand Chen Zhou's self-confidence, and when he was hesitating and doubting, the soldiers outside walked in and said, "Sir, I replied." ”
"Pick it up!"
Chen Zhou said.
The content of the letter was that Hou Cheng and the others were willing to surrender, and they asked Chen Zhou what he should do next?
"Really?"
Chen Deng was a little surprised, and then said cautiously: "Sir, be careful to prevent them from surrendering." ”
"I know that even if they surrender, they can't help me."
Chen Zhou is still very confident.
As long as the person who wrote the history book didn't mess around, he must not have surrendered fraudulently, but really wanted to surrender.
"Write back, tell them, and wait for the arrangement."
Chen Zhou said.
The rain hasn't fallen yet, and it's not convenient yet, so let them do something.
The soldier who delivered the message received the reply and went down to find someone to arrange it.
"Yuanlong, let's go back and wait for the arrival of the rainy season you predicted." Chen Zhou smiled confidently.
"Hopefully it's going to rain." Chen Deng glanced up at the sky.
The rain is just a prediction, if it doesn't, he doesn't know what to do, but seeing that the sky is thick with clouds and thick clouds, this is a sign that it can rain.
It should be right.
Chen Zhou returned to the camp of the Chinese army, and first told Cao Cao about the rebellion against Hou Cheng and others, so that they could be pleasantly surprised for a while, and then returned to the rear army.
"Sir!"
Mrs. Gan happened to be cooking dinner and asked softly, "Why don't you have dinner with us?" ”
Those dinners were faintly fragrant.
It smells good.
It was not easy to make delicious rice during the Three Kingdoms era, after all, at this time, there was a shortage of cooking methods and ingredients.
"Okay!"
Chen Zhou agreed without hesitation, and had no intention of being polite to her.
Mrs. Gan smiled slightly.
The smile is very good-looking, and the beauty is incomprehensible.
It is worthy of a white jade beauty!
However, Mrs. Gan felt that being by Cao Ying, by her husband's side, was much happier than following Liu Bei, it was so good to be here!
"Ma'am, what did he come in for?"
Lu Lingqi had a lot of opinions about Chen Zhou, and when she saw someone coming, she was immediately unhappy.
"Dinner, of course."
Chen Zhou didn't care if she liked it or not, she picked up the bowl and ate it, no different from going back to her own home.
In fact, this tent is equivalent to Chen Zhou's home in Cao Ying.
"Humph......"
Lu Lingqi pursed her lips and made a dissatisfied voice, knowing that she couldn't get rid of Chen Zhou, so she competed with Chen Zhou and took away everything Chen Zhou wanted.
This dinner was noisy and noisy, and I ate it for almost an hour.
"Alright, you can go out."
Lu Lingqi said dissatisfiedly.
Chen Zhou sat down nearby instead, and said slowly: "I'm a person, I'm just very rebellious, the more you let me go, the more I don't want to go, I decided, stay here to rest tonight." ”
"I ...... You...... Bad apple! ”
Lu Lingqi was angry, she couldn't drive away, this was Cao Ying, even if Chen Zhou was defenseless by her side, she didn't dare to do anything.
Mrs. Gan pondered the meaning of these words, and blushed slightly, as if she had not yet tried, and was in the same room with other men.
But Mr. is very good, much better than Liu Bei, she thinks she can do it......
