Three Kingdoms: From Hulaoguan to Global Hegemony

Chapter 286 Niu Fu is Dead
"General..."

Just after entering the door, there was a smell of burnt blood mixed with the smell of blood pervading the small space. I saw that Niu Fu was wrapped in thick cloth strips, only his eyes were exposed.

But the cloth strips couldn't stop the thick water and blood oozing from his skin at all, and Niu Fu's eyes opened suddenly, then slowly closed again.

Dong Cheng suppressed vomiting, called Niu Fu twice and saw that he didn't agree, and then dragged a soldier in charge of treatment to the outside of the house.

"Is the general still alive?"

Xiaobing sighed, then shook his head in despair.

When the fire fell yesterday, Niu Fu was only focused on suppressing and directing the rebel army to fight the fire, but was hit by a bamboo tube flame bomb on the spot.

The bamboo tube burst, and burning oil poured all over his body. At that time, the entire Flying Bear Army was in a state of extreme horror and despair. No one would care who the man covered in fire was.

No one came to rescue, Niu Fu could only rely on his desire to survive to put out the fire on his own.

He thought that the soil could put out the fire before, so he endured the pain of being scorched all over his body, and kept burying soil on his body.

The fire was finally extinguished, but he could never stand up again.

Lieutenant General Dong Cheng found him early in the morning, and immediately called for a soldier who knew a little bit of medical skills in the army to bandage him after he brought him back to the city.

But Niu Fu's whole body was burned out with thick water, even if the genius doctor came back to life, he would be unable to recover.

"I heard the general yelling just now. How do you say he won't be saved?" Dong Cheng couldn't accept the fact that Niu Fu was going to die. He was only a deputy general in the army. If Niu Fu died, he would have to bear the burden. consequences and guilt.

"Maybe... General Niu is coming back to life!" Xiaobing failed to save Niu Fu, and he was very scared in his heart, for fear that Dong Cheng would chop off his head if he was dissatisfied.

But when Xiaobing bandaged Niu Fu, his skin would rot immediately when he touched him, so he was sure that Niu Fu would not survive.

It's just that Niu Fu's ability to persist until now and not die is beyond their expectations.

Dong Cheng pushed Xiao Bing away, then squatted on the ground covering his head in despair.

"How can this be good! If Niu Fu is dead, I will be finished too!" Although Dong Cheng shares the same surname as Dong Zhuo, they are incompatible relatives. It is Niu Fu who made him a lieutenant general in the army. Relationship.

Now that the backer is about to die, not only has he cut off his way to promotion and fortune, but Dong Zhuo may even hold him accountable for his defeat.

Thinking that Dong Zhuo is a murderous monster without batting an eyelid, Dong Cheng suddenly had the idea of ​​switching to someone else.

"If you go back to Luoyang, you will definitely die. There are still [-] soldiers here. Why don't you take them to the local princes first, and then try to get your family out of Luoyang!"

Just as Dong Cheng was planning to lead his troops to flee here, a sound of horseshoes came from outside the city gate.

At this time, horses are a rare species, and only the army is eligible to equip war horses.

"Send someone to check, who is riding a horse outside the city!"

Based on his experience, Dong Cheng could judge that the sound of hooves was definitely made by a war horse, and it should be a very good war horse.

Will it be the spy of the bandits?It seems that I haven't seen bandits with horses these days. Could it be the messengers from Luoyang?

"We must not ask people from Luoyang to bring back news from here!"

Thinking of this, Dong Cheng secretly made up his mind, and prepared to kill someone himself.

But when Dong Cheng came to the gate of the city, he realized that the visitor was not someone he had the ability to silence.

Because the person who came was the escort officer responsible for bringing them food and grass, Zhongshan King Liu Yu.

Liu Yu's force is unparalleled in the world, and he holds the Feixiong badge in his hand. It can be said that as long as he speaks, he can order the Feixiong army in the city to obey his command.

So Dong Cheng could only dispel the idea of ​​wanting to silence him.

"The last general, Dong Cheng, pays homage to King Zhongshan!"

Dong Cheng was very depressed. Since Liu Yu had come, the grain transportation team was not far away, and Dong Cheng's plan to lead the remnant troops to join other princes might come to naught.

As soon as Liu Yu heard that the person who came to greet him turned out to be the Dong Cheng who wanted to join Liu Bei in making a clothes belt edict in history, he couldn't help but look at him a few more times.

"Ding, Dong Cheng, strength is 65, leadership is 68, resourcefulness is 79, mind is 83, and friendship is 30."

Dong Cheng joined the army from a small school and finally became an important minister of the court, the uncle of the emperor, which is enough to prove that his ability and ambition are not shallow.

However, Liu Yu had carefully studied the Yidai Zhao incident. At that time, Cao Cao coerced the emperor to order the princes. It was definitely a shame for the emperor and the big man, but Dong Cheng, who was under the banner of loyalty to the emperor, was not necessarily a loyal minister.

Winners and losers are nothing more than careerists fighting for power.

"Why is the city so deadly silent? Could it be that he has lost the battle? Where is the chariot general?"

After Liu Yu finished speaking, he glanced at the street and found that the soldiers here were on the verge of collapse. He thought that he came at the right time, as long as Niu Fu was under control, he would not have to worry about recruiting these troops.

At the beginning, Dong Cheng hesitated and didn't want to tell the truth, but when Liu Yu showed a cold look in his eyes and took out the Feixiong waist card, he completely gave up concealing it.

"Yesterday evening, the meteorite fell like rain outside the city. Our army was suddenly punished by heaven and suffered heavy casualties. General Niu Fu was also seriously injured by the meteorite. Now he has his last breath left!"

Liu Yu was also taken aback when he heard the words, he never thought that yesterday's "shelling" would hit Niu Fu.

"Where is General Cheqi now? Take me to see him!"

Dong Cheng brought Liu Yu into the house, but the two of them came a step too late, Niu Fu had already passed away.

Seeing that Niu Fu was wrapped in cloth strips and his death was extremely ugly, Liu Yu forced himself to show an extremely sad expression.

"I'm so jealous of talents. I think I used to play mahjong with the old man Taishi with General Che Qi, but I don't want Brother Niu to take the first step today... Alas, it's so sad!"

Liu Yu was so sad that even Dong Cheng who was next to him also cried and mourned.

After a while, Liu Yu straightened his clothes, and then asked in an extremely serious tone: "General Dong Cheng just said that it was God's punishment that killed my elder brother Niu. This statement... is really ridiculous. Could it be that you are afraid of being punished by the emperor?" A lie deliberately made up by Master to pursue responsibility?"

"Ah! The last general dare not lie...it's really because of the meteorite!"

Liu Yu's imposing manner was overwhelming, and Dong Cheng was worried about this matter in his heart, so he was so frightened that he lost his position on the spot.

In the beginning, there was indeed talk of meteorites in the army, but when the escaped soldiers saw those fireballs thrown from Xiong'er Mountain, they realized that it was not a punishment from heaven at all, but an enemy attack.

"I'm giving you one last chance!"

Seeing Dong Cheng trembling all over, Liu Yu asked in a more serious tone, "General Niu Fu and those Feixiong soldiers, why did they die?"

"This..." Dong Cheng thought in his heart that it was over, and the matter might not be hidden!
Ineffective in protecting the lord, losing soldiers and generals, fabricating a scam.

Any one of these three items can punish him with a death penalty!
