"Perhaps Lu Bu can succeed in taking control of Xuzhou?" Mi Zhu murmured.
As Lu Bu said, on the third day, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others arrived outside Pengcheng. The mighty train of supplies and supplies caught the attention of the passing people. Under the command of the soldiers in the army, they had already moved out of the way. .
This is the benefit that Lu Bu got after leaving Dong Zhuo. Even the aristocratic families in the city were very moved when they saw so many supplies. There is no doubt that Luoyang is rich, and Dong Zhuo's search for supplies is not only for the palace, aristocratic families, and wealthy households. , and even the imperial mausoleum is in it.
With these supplies as a support, Lu Bu doesn't have to worry about the lack of supplies for the time being. Coupled with the wealth of Pengcheng, it is enough to support the consumption of tens of thousands of troops.
When the army entered the city, the number of troops in the city surged to more than [-], most of whom were under Lu Bu's army.
"General, the last general is lucky to live up to his fate." Gao Shun clasped his fists and said.
Lu Bu nodded and said, "I already know what happened in Yanzhou. You did a good job."
"This is the job of the last general." Gao Shun said in a deep voice, his voice was unavoidably agitated, "well done" was a compliment to him.
"With the record of trapping the camp, it is enough to equip more sophisticated weapons. If this is the case, you can go to the treasury to choose." Lu Bu said.
"Thank you, General." Gao Shun saluted again. The trapped camp has high combat effectiveness, and its equipment is not much different from ordinary pawns. If it can have more sophisticated equipment, Gao Shun is confident that the trapped camp's combat effectiveness will be raised to a higher level.
Zhang Liao and the others also looked excited, not only because of Lu Bu's praise, but mainly because the army took control of Pengcheng. From then on, they were the masters of Pengcheng.
"The city is not stable, so don't relax your vigilance. Tao Qian is leading an army of tens of thousands and is rushing to Pengcheng." Lu Bu said, "Tao Qian is nothing to worry about. The key is the aristocratic families in the city. If they stand by Tao Qian's side , there may be a lot of trouble."
"General, the aristocratic families in the city are nothing to worry about. If they dare to resist, the general will lead someone to raid their homes." Wei Xu's expression revealed a bloodthirsty light.
When I was in Luoyang, the soldiers in the army often did such things. Some wealthy families had rich family resources, and even the soldiers in the army could get a lot of benefits.
Lu Bu said: "What the general needs is the whole of Xuzhou. If there is a fight, the other cities in Xuzhou will definitely resist desperately. They are not allowed to act without the order of the general. Otherwise, military law will be followed."
"Here." Zhang Liao and others said in unison.
Zhang Liao suddenly felt that Lu Bu in front of him was becoming more and more unpredictable, and he even started to plan the whole Xuzhou. From his words, he could feel Lu Bu's great ambition.
Lu Bu killed Ding Yuan and went to Dong Zhuo, which was the biggest stain on him, but Zhang Liao and others still followed him without complaint or regret, because they believed that Lu Bu's choice would be correct, after all, they had taken refuge in Dong Zhuo. It was the imperial court at that time.
From Zhang Liao's point of view, Lv Bu was right to break away from Dong Zhuo and stand on his own. At this time, Dong Zhuo was a traitor that everyone called out to fight. He thought that Lv Bu was a loyal minister, but he just had bad luck.
"General Zhang Liao is in charge of spying on Tao Qian's army, and General Gao Shun is in charge of the defense of the city. If there are juniors who dare to make trouble, there is no need to be lenient." Lu Bu ordered.
"Here." Zhang Liao and Gao Shun looked at each other and said in unison.
Wei Xu and the others looked at Gao Shun with envy. Being able to take on such an important task at this time shows that Lu Bu is attaching great importance to Gao Shun.
If it is said that Gao Shun was not too conspicuous among them before, after the first battle in Yanzhou, even Cao Xing admired Gao Shun. Among the [-] soldiers, none of them were killed or even seriously injured. What a record, if the equipment in the camp at that time was better, maybe there would be no injuries.
This is an unbelievable record, but it really happened to the trapped camp.
Chapter 23 Tao Qian is angry, Wen Hou kills Cao Bao together
Lu Bu met the members of the Chen family and the Mi family, but Jia Xu was busy in the governor's mansion, perhaps because of the threat to his life, Jia Xu seemed extraordinarily serious.
If Lv Bu's army entered the city and burned, killed and looted, Jia Xu might have looked down upon him, but this time Lv Bu's magnanimity and ambition made Jia Xu think highly of him. Perhaps the Lv Bu he had seen before was not the real Lv Bu.
In the early morning of the eighth day, Tao Qian led the army to the outside of Pengcheng. Looking at the "Lv" flag floating on the city ahead, Tao Qian's expression was not very good. He was the governor of Xuzhou appointed by the imperial court, and he The power of the governor is the same as that of the state shepherd, controlling the power of the entire Xuzhou.
But now, Pengcheng, the state capital of Xuzhou, has fallen into Lu Bu's control. How amazing is this? After Pengcheng is lost, it means the fall of Xuzhou, which is of great significance.
On the way back to Xuzhou, after receiving the news that Lv Bu had raided Pengcheng, Tao Qian ordered the lieutenant generals to rush back quickly. Not only that, Tao Qian also sent orders to Langya Kingdom, Donghai County, Xiapi Kingdom, The soldiers and horses of Guangling County rushed to help.
Among them, Zang Ba, the fierce general of Xuzhou, was stationed in Langya Kingdom.
Pengcheng is too important to Tao Qian, his family is all in the city, if Lu Bu uses his family as a threat, how should he choose.
What made Tao Qian angry was that after his order was communicated, only the Prime Minister of Xiapi sent [-] soldiers and horses, and the rest of the counties and states seemed to be on the sidelines.
Lv Bu is a long-established fierce general, what a demeanor he is fighting against the armies of princes outside Hulao Pass, they don't want to compromise their own strength at this time.
It is true that Tao Qian is the governor of Xuzhou. The officials of various counties and countries also have control over their subordinates. They also have a large number of troops under their command. If the rescue of Tao Qian fails, once Lu Bu invades, how will they resist? Rushing to the rescue of Tao Qian, it will be Lu Bu who will be angered.
Instead of this, it is better to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. No matter which side wins, they can take the opportunity to express their loyalty.
More than [-] troops formed a formation outside the city, and the atmosphere over Pengcheng became solemn.
Many officials in the city are also in a wait-and-see state. Even if they want to stand up to help Tao Qian at this time, how can they do it without troops in hand. The army is under the control of Lu Bu, especially after Zhang Liao and others arrived. The general's power is firmly grasped.
As for letting the aristocratic family use the family's private soldiers to help Tao Qian, it depends on whether Tao Qian is worthy of their help. If Tao Qian can lead the army to defeat Lu Bu, many aristocratic families will stand up to help He, the aristocratic family, behaved more realistically more often.
The city gate was opened wide, and Lu Bu led two thousand cavalry out of the city.
The cavalry who filed out quickly set up a formation outside the city, and the killing intent was overwhelming, making the atmosphere in the west of the city even more dignified.
Lu Bu stepped forward slowly on his horse, Fang Tian's painted halberd was lowered, and his stalwart figure made many generals in the Xuzhou army vigilant.
"Why did Marquis Wen invade Xuzhou for no reason?" Tao Qian stepped forward and shouted.
Lu Bu said coldly: "What is an invasion? Are you only allowed to attack this general's army?"
"The ungrateful generation, who betrayed the governor Ding in the past and helped the tyrants to abuse them, everyone can punish such rebellious officials and thieves." Tao Qian angrily scolded.
"This general has already occupied Pengcheng. If you have the ability, just take it from the general's hands. Roaring and barking outside the city is not considered a skill." Lu Bu sneered.
Tao Qian's fingers trembled angrily, "You are shameless, extremely shameless."
"Lü Buxiu is crazy, I will come to meet you for a while." Cao Bao rode out and went straight to Lu Bu, "This general is Xuzhou General Cao Bao."
Lu Bu frowned slightly, "Whispering!"
The red rabbit horse turned into a fiery red shadow in Cao Bao's eyes, which was caused by the red rabbit horse's speed.
Before the long knife fell, the crescent moon on the painted halberd cut off Cao Bao's head, blood gushed out, and the scene was extremely bloody.
The generals in the Xuzhou army were shocked when they saw this scene. Cao Bao was a famous general in the Xuzhou army, and he was beheaded by Lu Bu after only one round in the battle. This made them look at Lu Bu with even more fear.
Just now, ninety-nine percent of the people didn't see how Lu Bu made the move, but seeing the two horses miss each other, Cao Bao's head left his body.
A smile appeared on the corner of Lu Bu's mouth, Fang Tian shook his halberd, spattered a little blood, and said in a deep voice, "Who dares to step forward and fight this general?"
Some generals in the Xuzhou army couldn't help but retreat. This is the invincible god of war. He is the master on the battlefield.
"Kill!" Tao Qian ordered angrily. Originally, he wanted to reprimand Lu Bu again. It would be best to make Lu Bu feel ashamed and occupy the commanding heights of righteousness. Unexpectedly, Cao Bao was impatient and wanted to die. .
The death of Cao Bao will definitely have a great impact on the lieutenant, but Tao Qian has no other choice. All he needs to do is to let the officials in the city see that he is determined to lead the army to capture Pengcheng, regardless of Lu Bu's strength. No matter how powerful he is, he must move forward bravely.
The military order fell like a mountain, and the rumbling drums sounded in the Xuzhou army. Those who did not obey the order would face the fate of being beheaded.
Fang Tian's painted halberd was raised, and under the shining of the sun, Fang Tian's painted halberd exuded a faint red light. This is a magic weapon that drinks blood.
The halberd fell, and the cavalry moved.
Lv Bu took the lead and charged into the Xuzhou army, clashing left and right, as if entering an uninhabited land, a square halberd, in Lv Bu's hands, was a sharp weapon to sweep across the battlefield, many soldiers fell in a pool of blood before they even had time to react During the meeting, many generals looked at Lu Bu with fear. They never thought that a single person's bravery could reach such a level before crossing.
One person, one horse and one Fang Tianji, at this moment, Lu Bu was like a reborn overlord.
The accompanying cavalry quickly tore through the defense of Xuzhou's former army.
The shouts of killing outside the city were loud, and the Xuzhou officials who were invited to watch the battle on the top of the city were in a difficult mood, especially seeing Lu Bu's brave side.
"Marquis Wen has the courage to overlord." Jia Xu said slowly.
The surrounding officials were shocked again when they heard the words, but they acquiesced to Jia Xu's words after seeing the manipulative figure outside the city.
Overlord Xiang Yu is a famous figure in the history of Pengcheng. Even if he is against the great ancestor Liu Bang and has been passed down for 400 years, he can't cover up the brilliance of Overlord Xiang Yu. He is the pride of Pengcheng.
Now that the brave Lu Bu has occupied Pengcheng, does that mean something?
Chapter 24 The Betrayal, Kill!
Facing the onslaught of the cavalry, Xuzhou's army seemed a little confused, but after all they had an advantage in numbers. After leading the cavalry to charge for a while, Lu Bu led the troops back to the city.
Tao Qian also led the army and set up camp five miles away from the city. He could not give up Pengcheng.
After setting up the camp, Tao Qian felt uneasy. He had heard about Lv Bu's martial arts prowess for a long time, but his personal experience was completely different from what he heard. Heart panic.
Especially the generals in the army, their expressions lacked the confidence they used to have.
"Now that Lu Bu is occupying Pengcheng and resisting our army, if Lu Bu can't be driven away, then Xuzhou will be devastated, and Lu Bu is a traitor." Tao Qian said in a deep voice.
The generals in the army nodded and said yes, as for what their true thoughts are, it is unknown to outsiders.
Zhizhong Wang Lang said: "There is no need to worry about the governor. Lu Bu is a warrior. He is only brave and not to be feared. The governor has great prestige in Pengcheng. If he leads the troops back in person, he will definitely be able to break through the city."
Seeing Tao Qian and the generals in the army cast their gazes one after another, Wang Lang continued: "The officials in the city must have dislikes towards Lu Bu. Although they did not act during the day, it must be because of Lu Bu's supervision. As long as we secretly plan and unite with the defenders in the city , can completely open the gate of the city, when the time comes, the army will rush in, so why not drive Lu Bu away?"
Tao Qian nodded when he heard the words, the support of the officials in the city was also an important reliance for him.
"Wang Zhizhong's words are justified. You are responsible for uniting officials in the city. If you can drive away Lu Bu, you will be the first to do so." Tao Qian said.
Hearing the words, Wang Lang showed joy, cupped his hands and said: "The humble job must go all out."
"Soldiers in the army must not relax, Lu Bu is not an easy man." Tao Qian said, "As long as Lu Bu is driven away from Pengcheng, Lu Bu will have nowhere to go. If such a traitor is killed, the court will reward him."
The generals in the army were thoughtful, why didn't they want to kill Lu Bu in the confrontation, but Lu Bu's martial arts are too strong, fighting against Lu Bu is not much different from courting death, if you are not careful, you will die battlefield.
Lü Bu led the victorious army back to the city, and the officials in the city came forward to congratulate him one after another. No matter how dissatisfied they were with Lv Bu in their hearts, they still needed to show respect in front of Lv Bu.
Taking a full view of the officials' expressions, Lu Bu didn't say much.
Originally according to Lv Bu's plan, Tao Qian led the army to Pengcheng and defeated it on the way. If other cities in Xuzhou had reinforcements to help Tao Qian, his current strength would be enough to deal with it. However, Jia Xu's plan was to let The officials in Xuzhou, seeing how powerful Lv Bu was, defeated Tao Qian openly and aboveboard, so that the civil servants and generals in the city could not see Tao Qian's hope of taking Pengcheng, and naturally they would respect Lv Bu even more.
"Wenhe, General Gao Shun will cooperate with you and be in charge of the affairs of the city. If there are young people making trouble at such a time, you should know what to do." Lu Bu said.
Jia Xu cupped his hands and said, "I understand the humble position."
It was night, and the situation in Pengcheng was as stable as before. It seemed that Tao Qian's arrival did not have much impact on the officials in the city.
Perhaps because of Lu Bu leading the army to victory in the battle, the soldiers in the city were a lot slack in defense and patrolling, while the Xuzhou army was hurrying up to build siege equipment.
Three days later, at night, there was a change in the city. More than [-] soldiers in the army rebelled. The Liang family, Zhao family, Li family, Wang family, and Cao family joined forces to seize the city gate and welcome Tao Qian into the city.
More than [-] rebels failed to walk out of the barracks, and they were defeated by the soldiers led by Gao Shun, and the troops of the five families were ambushed by the army not long after they left the house.
That night, inside Pengcheng, there was constant shouting and killing. Tao Qian, who was waiting outside the city with a large army, did not see the city gate open for a long time.
The next day, Lu Bu gathered the officials of Pengcheng at the Governor's Mansion.
The officials have channels for them to obtain information. They have some understanding of the changes in the city last night. The five families unite, plus the rebellion of more than [-] soldiers and soldiers. The army entered the city.
As long as Tao Qian enters the city, the aristocratic families in the city will not stand by Tao Qian's side. Compared with Lu Bu, they prefer Tao Qian to be in charge of Xuzhou. When facing Lu Bu, the officials in the city more often feel that Danger.
Lu Bu glanced around at the officials in the hall, and said in a deep voice, "You all must be aware of the turmoil in the city last night. To betray this general is a dead end."
The atmosphere in the hall was extremely dignified. This was the first contest between Pengcheng officials and Lu Bu.
"All the main personnel of the five families will be beheaded, all the servants in the family will be dismissed, and those who betrayed in the army will be beheaded."
The sonorous and powerful words made the hearts of the officials in the venue tremble. After Lu Bu entered Pengcheng, bloody killings were about to begin.
Among Xuzhou officials, there are many intelligent people. They have seen from the response of the army in the city that Lu Bu had already expected what might happen in the city. It is very likely that Lu Bu did it on purpose this time. If so, Lu Bu deserves their attention.
Using Tao Qian outside the city as a bait to judge whether the officials in the city are loyal or not. In this way, Lu Bu has ample excuses to attack the officials. The other four families are easy to say. The Cao family is not a weak family in Xuzhou. Cao Bao was born in the Cao family.
This was also the reason why the Cao family couldn't wait to make a move. Cao Bao's provocation against Lv Bu would definitely bring him hatred.
However, the betrayal of the Cao family resulted in the destruction of the Cao family. The family with a deep heritage cannot stop the mighty army at such a time.
The last thing the aristocratic family wants to face is such a tyrannical general like Lu Bu. There is not much reason to say. Could it be that the Cao family has such a family background in Xuzhou? In that case, it will only strengthen Lu Bu's killing.
"I don't want to see this kind of thing again, otherwise don't blame me for being cruel." Lu Bu said.
Everyone expressed their loyalty to Lu Bu one after another. The officials who had a certain degree of confidence suddenly felt that Lu Bu, as a general, was not as simple as they imagined.
"Chen Deng, Mi Zhu, and Mi Fang stay here, and the rest leave."
The officials who had a close relationship with the three of them couldn't help showing worried expressions. In Pengcheng, the Chen family and the Mi family had great influence. If Lu Bu took action against the two families, it would definitely cause even greater shocks in Pengcheng, but such a thing It is very possible that it happened to Lu Bu.
Chapter 25 Jia Xu's Views
It wasn't Lu Bu who talked to the three of them afterwards, he didn't want to play tricks with these officials, it was fine to leave these troublesome matters to Jia Xu, he just needed to maintain a cold and arrogant side, in his previous life, he would is a proud man.
About an hour later, Jia Xu knocked on the door and entered.
