Three Kingdoms King of the North

"Marquis Wen is here?!" Hearing the report from the small school, Gao Shun quickly stood up and asked, "Where is he?"

"It's just outside the gate of the mansion."

Gao Shun hurriedly said to the left and right: "All follow me out to meet Marquis Wen."

When Gao Shun walked to the door, he happened to see Lu Bu striding in. He hurriedly led someone forward and bowed to salute: "My subordinates are waiting to see Marquis Wen!"

Lu Bu turned his head to look at Gao Shun, snorted heavily, and walked towards the meeting hall.Gao Shun hurriedly led others to follow.

After sitting down in the middle of the meeting hall, Lu Bu looked at Gao Shun and asked, "Gao Shun, let me ask you, do you have any connection with the two thieves Li Jue and Guo Si?"

"Returning to Marquis Wen," Gao Shun knew Lu Bu's intention for a long time, but when he heard him ask this question, he was still stunned for a moment before replying: "Reporting to Marquis Wen, my subordinates are loyal to the court." Geng Geng, the collusion with Li Guo Er was framed by an adulterer."

"Framed by a traitor?!" Hearing this, Lu Bu sneered again: "I'm afraid someone else is the one who was framed." After he finished speaking, he ordered the soldiers he had brought with him, "Send Gao Shun Take them down, put them in prison, and deal with them after I break through the bandits outside the city and capture Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji, Fan Chou and others."

Following Lu Bu's order, the people he brought rushed forward, grabbed Gao Shun, and were about to drag him out.But he was stopped by a cavalry governor, who came to Lv Bu, bowed deeply and said, "Marquis Wen, Lieutenant Gao Gao has been doing his best since he became the guard of the west gate, and he dare not slack off in the slightest. His affair with the two thieves Li and Guo was purely framed by traitors. If he wants to dedicate the city, I am afraid that the two thieves Li and Guo have already entered the city for a long time. Please Wen Hou clearly investigate!" After finishing speaking, he knelt down in front of Lu Bu.

The rest of the cavalry governors and military lords in the hall, seeing that their companions had already knelt down, also said, "Please find out, Lord Wen!", and knelt down in front of Lu Bu one after another.

Standing in the crowd, Li Meng and Wang Fang originally wanted to fish in troubled waters.Seeing that all the colleagues kneeled down, only the two of them did not kneel, the goal was too obvious, so they quickly followed suit.

Seeing that everyone was pleading for Gao Shun, Lu Bu snorted again, stood up and walked away with his subordinates.Gao Shun, who escaped from the sky, immediately ordered his subordinates present after Lu Bu left: "Everyone, go back, and guard the city well according to what you just discussed. When the two thieves outside the city, Li and Guo, have exhausted their food, I will retreat. Let’s talk about rewards for meritorious deeds.”

Just when Lu Bu took his men to the Ximen Guard General's Mansion to find Gao Shun's bad luck, Cheng Lian, Wei Xu and others from the East Gate also got the news.After some discussions, Cheng Lian sent someone to invite Jushou, Xia Houlan and others to discuss matters in the government.

Jushou and Xia Houlan didn't know what happened, so they hurried to the guard's mansion in Ximen, and met Cheng Lian and others.After the ceremony was over, Ju Shou quickly asked, "I don't know what the three cavalry governors hurriedly called me here, what's the matter?"

"Ju Supervisor Army," Song Xian said on behalf of the crowd, "We have just received news that there are rumors in the city that Gao Shun, the guard of the west gate, is secretly colluding with the two thieves Li and Guo outside the city, and plans to sacrifice the city to the thieves."

"How is this possible?" Ju Shou heard this, and he couldn't wait to say: "As far as I know, Gao Gao Lieutenant is a loyal man, how could it be possible to collude with the two thieves Li and Guo. In this matter, someone must have framed him."

"That's right," Song Xian nodded after hearing Jushou's words, and said in agreement, "Our three brothers also think so, so I invite you to come here to discuss."

After Ju Shou sat down in the seat prepared for him by Song Xian, he frowned and began to think.After a long time, he looked up at Song Xian and asked, "Song Qidu, I don't know where such rumors come from?"

Song Xian didn't answer, but turned to look at Cheng Lian.Cheng Lian hurriedly stepped forward and replied: "Ju Supervisor Army, it's like this. After I heard the news, I immediately sent someone to inquire. I learned that it was a few soldiers under the cavalry governor Li Meng and Wang Fang. It was first spread, but the result became more and more serious, as if Gao Gaowei was about to open the city gate to welcome Li and Guo's thieves into the city."

Hearing Cheng Lian's words, Ju Shou said thoughtfully: "Li Jue's army has not attacked the city for a long time, and the people in the city were allowed to go out from the east gate to cut wages. At this moment, it was suddenly reported that Gao Shun was colluding with foreign enemies. Based on the rumors, it seems that Li Jue is really planning to seize the city."

Although they knew that the capital would be defeated by Li Guo and others sooner or later, Cheng Lian and others were still shocked when they heard what Jushou said.He hurriedly asked: "Why do you see it?"

"Isn't that simple?" Ju Shou sneered and said, "There must be some masters in Li Jue's army. They know that the capital has a large number of soldiers and horses, and the city is strong. The capital." Speaking of this, he couldn't help sighing, "It's a pity that Wang Yun doesn't know how to employ people. There is a veteran like Huangfusong in the city. If he were to guard the city, the capital would be as solid as gold, but who would have thought that it would be handed over to a brave man?" Reckless Lv Bu. It seems that the capital has fallen in the past few days."

The reason why Cheng Lian and others are willing to cooperate with Jushou is to have a retreat after the city is broken.Hearing that the city was about to fall, he hurriedly asked, "Ju Supervisor Army, what should we do?"

"Everything is implemented according to plan." Ju Shou said calmly: "We are responsible for sneaking into the palace and rescuing Shengjia after the city is broken. And you three, before we leave the capital with Shengjia, you must do your best. Do everything possible to guard the east gate, understand?"

Ju Shou and others were discussing about rescue, when a soldier hurried in from the outside.After he glanced at everyone, he quickly came to Cheng Lian's side, and whispered in his ear.After hearing a few words, Cheng Lian said in surprise, "What, when did this happen?"

"Chengqi Governor," Ju Shou saw the mysterious look on the soldier's face, and asked curiously, "What happened?"

"Ju Supervisor Army," the soldier is Cheng Lian's confidant, so he said to Ju Shou without any hesitation: "The subordinates came down to report that Lu Bu had brought people into the guard's mansion at the east gate. It is estimated that the high school lieutenant is in danger. .”

"How is the situation now?" Ju Shou heard this, and immediately asked the soldier: "How is Gao Gaowei now?"

The soldier shook his head and replied: "The villain was just ordered to watch outside the guard's mansion at the west gate. When he saw Marquis Wen leading a group of soldiers into the guard's mansion, he immediately came back and reported to the cavalry governor. What's the situation with Gao Gaowei now?" , it is unknown.”

"If Gao Shun is captured by Lu Bu, then Ximen will be in danger." Jushou couldn't sit still when he heard the news. He stood up and walked back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, thinking quickly about countermeasures .After a long time, he finally stopped and said to Cheng Lian: "Cheng Qidu, please send someone to the Ximen Guard General's Mansion to investigate and see how the high school captain is doing?"

Cheng Lian also knew that this matter was of great importance, so he didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest, so he quickly dispatched several confidants to the guard's mansion at the west gate, to find out how Gao Shun's situation is now.

While waiting for the spies to report back, Song Xian asked Jushou tentatively: "Ju Supervisor Army, what should we do if Gao Gaowei is imprisoned by Marquis Wen? Did we rob the holy driver overnight and flee to Jizhou?"

"No, even if something happened to Gao Shun, we can't enter the palace to rob the holy car before the city is destroyed." Ju Shou was afraid that Song Xian would not understand, so he explained to him specifically: "If we break the city before the city is destroyed, we can't go to the palace." Take Sheng Jia out of the palace. Not only Li and Guo will send troops to hunt us down, but even Lu Bu in the city may personally lead troops to hunt us down."

Ju Shou's words immediately made Song Xian and others dispel the idea of ​​robbing Emperor Xian of Han immediately.They knew very well in their hearts that even if Emperor Han Xian was rescued, it was thousands of miles away to Jizhou, and there was a pass in the middle.Lu Bu only needs to bring a cavalry to catch up, and it is enough to make everyone die without a place to bury them.

Fortunately, Cheng Lian's subordinates were more capable. Less than half an hour later, they ran back panting and reported: "I have reported to the cavalry governor, and I have found out clearly. After Wen Hou entered the guard's mansion, he angrily reprimanded the high school. After a few words from the lieutenant, he ordered someone to take him down and prepare to put him in prison. Fortunately, the subordinates of the high school lieutenant collectively interceded for him, so Marquis Wen let him go."

Hearing that Gao Shun was fine, Jushou's heart finally fell to the ground.He said to Cheng Lian and others: "Three cavalry governors, since the matter of the high school lieutenant has come to an end, the professor will leave first. If there is anything, you can send someone to our shelter."

The reason why Cheng Lian and others are willing to cooperate with Jushou is to have a retreat after the city is broken.Hearing that the city was about to fall, he hurriedly asked, "Ju Supervisor Army, what should we do?"

"Everything is implemented according to plan." Ju Shou said calmly: "We are responsible for sneaking into the palace and rescuing Shengjia after the city is broken.

Chapter 208

Hearing what Xia Houyun said, Zhang Liao couldn't help the blood rushing to his head. He straightened his body and said, "Since we know that the bandit soldiers are about to die, how can we stand by and watch? Zhang Liao begs you to lend me five hundred soldiers and horses. Go to the capital to destroy the thieves."

"Five hundred soldiers?" Xia Houyun couldn't help sneering and said: "Captain Zhang Qi, should I remind you that there are [-] to [-] bandits outside the capital, let alone five hundred soldiers, even if you give them You have five thousand soldiers and horses, and you are also hitting a stone with an egg, and you are looking for your own death."

Zhang Liao was just furious for a while, after hearing Xia Houyun's words, he felt that what she said was very reasonable.At the beginning, Lu Bu had tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but they were also defeated by Li and Guo. In the end, only a few thousand people fled into the capital.And his thousands of soldiers and horses were also lost in this melee.Thinking of this, he lowered his head sadly and remained silent.

Seeing Zhang Liao's expression, Xia Houyun felt that what he said just now was a bit too serious and hurt Zhang Liao's self-esteem, so he quickly said: "Captain Qi, the purpose of our coming here is to meet the Holy Spirit when the city is broken. Drive away from danger. As long as you accompany us to escort Sheng Jia to Jizhou, it will be a great achievement."

Zhang Liao's heart was ashamed at the moment, and he didn't care about great achievements or not. He bowed his hands to Dianwei and Xia Houyun, then turned and left the tent.

After Zhang Liao left, Xia Houyun and Dian Wei discussed a few words, and then said to the two messengers: "Both of you return to the city as soon as possible, and tell the Ju Supervisor Army that starting tomorrow night, we will send people to observe the movements of the capital at any time. If there is chaos in the city, I will rush to the east of the city to pick up Shengjia. For the sake of safety, I will not write to the Ju Supervisor Army."

The two messengers agreed, turned around and walked out of the big tent, and hurried back to the capital to report the news.

For the next two days, everything inside and outside the city was peaceful, and Ximen's vigilance gradually became relaxed again.Seeing this, Li Meng and Wang Fang began to discuss about opening the door to let Li Jue and others enter the city.

Wang Fang said: "Although the defenders of Ximen, in the eyes of outsiders, are all Dong Taishi's old troops. But you and I should understand in our hearts that Gao Shun's Bingzhou Army and our Liangzhou Army have always had conflicts. Now you and I There are only 800 people in the old department of the two, if Gao Shun's subordinates find out when they open the door, they will definitely fall into a bitter battle."
