The night is so deep, and the smoke is so big, that it is impossible to find the direction of the Son of Heaven for a moment.

But God seemed to treat her well, and just when the two women were panicking, Wei Xu came.

Not only did he bring soldiers to protect them, but he also found a wagon very thoughtfully.

"Thanks to General Wei!" Mrs. Yan said with tears in her eyes, "You and I can survive today, and we are all grateful for the grace of General Wei's life!" ”

"Madame is the wife of the general, and the noble man is the family of the Son of Heaven, so I shouldn't say thank you," Wei Xu smiled, "It's just that the night is dark and smoky, where should I go to find the general?" ”

Lu Jiao bowed her head and was silent, but Mrs. Yan had already spoken quickly, "I heard a report from the soldiers that they were going to Baima fifty miles away!" ”

The general thought for a moment, smiled and nodded, and invited them to get into the car.

There were no lights in the car, so it was very dark, and if you wanted to see, you had to open the curtain and borrow a little fire from outside.

But neither mother nor daughter did so.

The wheels rolled, frequently running over all sorts of things.

Sometimes it's wood, which has been burned a little crispy, and when it is crushed, there will be an overwhelming cracking sound, and some bumps;

Sometimes it is cloth, which has not been completely burned out, and it is not sad to grind it up as if there is a small, gentle slope on the flat ground;

Sometimes corpses, one or several lying there, ran over like a piece of cloth of wood, at first gentle, but soon there was the sound of bones breaking, and then they jolted over.

In addition to this, there are various smells.

The smell of burnt wood, the smell of burnt tents, and the smell of burnt corpses mixed together and scorched the walls of the car.

Therefore, no one will lift the curtain.

The car was noisy outside, and there were terrible shouts everywhere, and the car was exceptionally quiet.

Lu Ji thought silently about what had just happened.

Wei Xu was in charge of the trapping camp, and his father treated him so kindly, how could he not even know where to meet?

…… Unless he was not in the camp at the time of the incident.

…… Not only was he not there, but even his soldiers were not there.

Although Lu Ji is a thoughtful person, she is a young woman after all, even before entering the palace, Lu Bu does not allow her to walk around the camp often, so how many soldiers there are in each battalion and who is responsible for dispatching, she can only listen to some details from her father, and she can't get more accurate information, so naturally she can't deduce more accurate conclusions.

But Chen Gong was different, in this night when Lu Bu was forced to do it, and according to the plan that Jia Xu once said to him, robbed the little emperor and ran all the way, Chen Gong immediately noticed that the generals under Lu Bu had rebelled.

The cavalry could run all the way, but the infantry could not follow the footsteps of the cavalry like this, and it was difficult for those ministers to keep up, so just more than ten miles away from the camp, Lu Bu was ready to stop, let the war horse rest, help the Son of Heaven off the horse, and then put the golden root car on the back of the Son of Heaven from the Yellow Gate-

Chen Gong dismounted and walked over.

"How many soldiers are there with the general?"

"There are more than 500 cavalry, and 2,000 infantry are behind," Lu Bu asked, "Gongtai is worried?" ”

"Two thousand infantry," Chen Gong chewed on this sentence, "who will lead the troops?" ”

"Hou Cheng and Song Xian, there are still two thousand in Wei Xu Hao Meng," Lu Bu said with a smile, "They must not be relieved to be Gao Boxun and help him go to the queen of the palace." ”

"Although I came out with the general in a hurry, I also heard that most of the enemy troops spoke with a Hanoi accent," Chen Gong said, "The soldiers and horses brought by Xiahoudun are all Yanzhou troops, how can there be Hanoi people?" ”

Lu Bu was stunned for a moment.

Chen Gong looked at his stunned face reflected in the firelight, and suddenly spoke coldly:

"General, does Hao Meng have a grudge against you?"

Lu Bu was taken aback, "What are these words!" He has followed me for many years, and there is no grudge! ”

Chen Gong looked at him coldly, "I heard that the general and his wife ......"

Torches were lit everywhere under this dirt slope, and there were constantly ministers and state soldiers running in, the ministers went to find the Son of Heaven, and the soldiers went to find their own generals, and it was very noisy.

On the other side of the hustle and bustle, the face of the famous general of the Golden Armor Red Rabbit suddenly turned red, ashamed and embarrassed, and even a little annoyed and angry, he seemed to want to slap Chen Gong back with a tough attitude, but when he saw Chen Gong's cold and reproachful eyes, his momentum went down again.

"I don't use force," he muttered quietly, "his wife only married her because her parents were greedy for a dowry, and she did treat me with affection, and we ......"

Chen Gong is a scholar, and he is a bit pretentious, so he is never willing to listen to and ask Lu Bu about those romantic affairs.

Now he suddenly hated himself, why didn't he care about some generals!

Why not put a chain around the general's neck! Tied to a stake in the yard!

"Isn't it a great vendetta that you stole from his wife?!" Chen Gong said hatefully, "The general still dares to use him!" ”

Lu Bu was extremely aggrieved.

"It's not all trivial, why can't you use ......"

"Except for Hao Meng," Chen Gong asked sharply, "whose housewife did you steal?!" ”

Lu Bu's eyes unconsciously lit a torch in the distance, and gradually glanced at the soldiers and horses marching here, his eyes were a little sneaky, a little weak, but after all, it didn't matter at all, so he saw that Chen Gong's eyes were black for a while.

"Hou Cheng and Song Xianzhong, which family did you steal?"

Lu Bu was silent.

"General! Checkmate! Someone suddenly shouted, "Why don't they light torches?" ”

The night was getting brighter and brighter, and the sky was shining through the clouds and slowly spreading over the mountains and rivers near the east.

In the southeast, Hou Cheng and Song Xian's 2,000 soldiers did not all light torches, and they came like a long dragon, and when they saw that the place in front of them was where Lu Bu was resting, the soldiers seemed to be a little slack, and they walked slowly.

But in addition to them, there were also some soldiers who had bypassed the dirt road, extinguished their torches, and were quietly surrounding them from both sides.

There were scouts with excellent eyes patrolling around on horseback on the top of the dirt mountain, and suddenly they saw this scene.

"Watchman!" Chen Gong couldn't care less about letting the stunned general give the order, and he shouted, "Knock on the golden watch!" There is an enemy attack! ”

This dirt slope was suddenly in chaos, and the minister, the Yellow Gate, a small number of guards, and the hundreds of horsemen who were resting were all mixed together, looking for horses, looking for cars, going to the river to fetch water, and those who were relieving themselves in the forest, making a commotion and screaming!

This is nothing, being raided this kind of thing, Lu Bu has seen a lot, he has cavalry, although there are forests, dirt slopes and rivers here, it is not suitable for cavalry charges, but he can still calmly get on his horse and leave.

…… But, that shouldn't be the enemy! That's his state army! Lu Bu was stunned and thought, those people are all his soldiers!

But when the golden watchman sounded, those soldiers with swords, shields, and spears rushed towards their general!

Chen Gong drew his sword.

"General! Launched! Launched! After I come to the palace, you will escort the royal driver, go quickly! ”

Chapter 375

The fire burned brighter and brighter, obscuring the faint light of day and night.

The cries and screams had faded away from the first burning land, except for the pungent smell of burnt and ashy things, swirling in the night breeze that had just risen at dawn.

Xiahoudun frowned, looking at Gao Shun, who was not approaching him, but who was not retreating, at the less than two hundred soldiers behind him, and at the outline of the vast mountains in the north that appeared between the fire and the dim morning glow.

This man is strong.

Not only is the sword technique very strong, but the ability to arrange troops is also very strong, and Lu Bu left him to fight alone here, which really ruined him.

But this is a good opportunity, Xiahou thought that even if he failed to pursue Lu Bu, as long as he killed or captured Gao Shun, it would be a great achievement.

He was about to take a step forward because of this, and even the herald beside him picked up the flag, ready to give an order to the soldiers next to the war drums, beating the drums to urge the army forward—

The one-eyed general hesitated suddenly.

Why are these things so coincidental?

As soon as the lord transferred the main force from Yanzhou, the state army rebelled. And the mastermind who planned the rebellion was still the closest person to Lu Bu.

…… Wei Xu is not here.

So where is he?

Xiahoudun looked at Gao Shun, and Gao Shun also looked at him calmly.

From that calm face, Xiahoudun really couldn't see anything more, he should have ordered to advance, engage Gao Shun, and kill this most important general under Lu Bu - but is this another trap?

If he receives ten thousand...... No! With 5,000 soldiers and horses, he will immediately order the whole army to move forward without hesitation, kill Gao Shun first, and then pursue Lu Bu!

But his camp was empty, with only 2,000 soldiers and horses, and a thousand guards were divided, and there were only 1,000 men with him!

What if Wei Xu pretended to surrender and was actually preparing to encircle and suppress the Yanzhou army with Lu Bu?

If Wei Xu did have a bitter hatred for Lu Bu and wanted to get rid of it quickly, but after killing Lu Bu, what else did he think?

In the court escorted by Xiahoudun, from the Son of Heaven to the Minister, they were all shrewd people who were not good at fighting, but would always use other methods to get what they wanted.

A Yanzhou with Cao Cao or a Yanzhou without Cao Cao, which one is more loved by these ministers?

What if all this was an illusion carefully arranged for him to see?

The lord took the main force to Wancheng, and now he is the only commander of Yanzhou, if he dies here, what will Xun Yu, who is defending the city, have in the face of the Son of Heaven?

Yes, some people's husbands, craftsmen, and palace maids died, but for the "big man", they were insignificant!

If this price can be exchanged for a Yanzhou, the blood spilled by countless soldiers under the command of the lord is too cheap!

Before dawn, Xiahoudun had already made a decision.

"Withdraw troops." He said.

"General?!"

The one-eyed general didn't bother to look at the herald beside him, he stared at Gao Shun deadly, but his tone was extremely calm.

"I said, withdraw the troops."

Even if this is already in Yanzhou, if Xiahoudun wants to pursue Lu Bu, he still has to march in the dark, whether there is an ambush on the road, whether he will fall into a trap, is completely unknown.

He won't be in danger, Xiahou thought, it's not a big deal if the Son of Heaven runs away, loses, or dies, but if Yanzhou is lost, the lord will lose the fundamental place to settle down.

He was to gather his men and horses, and carefully wait for the dawn, for any cold arrows and assassins that might appear in the darkness, for the conspiracy to reveal its true colors.

Only when it is dawn to ensure that Yanzhou is safe will he proceed with the next step.

"General! Xiahou withdrew! ”

The petty officer on the opposite side was quietly talking to his general.

The general nodded slightly, and when his chin lowered slightly, beads of blood flowed through and fell gently into the dirt.
