Three Kingdoms: The opening incorporates Li Cunxiao

Chapter 77 Letter from Xun Yu, crisis in Puyang

Lei Bo?

Zhang Wu was stunned. Isn't this the guy who occupied Songshan Mountain with Chen Lan and became bandits after Yuan Shu became emperor?

After Yuan Shu's defeat, this guy sent troops to rob Yuan Shu's treasures by fire. How could he become a loyal man when he came to his own place?

Zhang Wu couldn't figure it out, and Zhang Xun couldn't figure it out either. In fact, Lei Bo was betting on his future with a small gamble.

He has now jumped out to act as a loyal minister of Yuan's family. If he wins, he can gain Yuan Shu's favor and become famous.

Even if he loses in the end, he can still get a good job with Cao Cao based on his reputation as a "loyal and righteous man".

What's more, he took away Zhang Xun's military power in a flash. The 50,000 soldiers in the city were the foundation for his future settlement.

In troubled times, only the confidence to lead the army is sufficient.

It's just that Lei Bo miscalculated one thing, that is, Zhang Wu's patience was almost exhausted. He jumped out to prolong the war when Shang Cai was bound to lose, which was simply asking for his own death.

And he was standing too far forward.

This time last year, Zhang Wu used his javelin throwing skills to shoot down flying geese in the sky, which shocked Cao Cao from ear to ear.

While chasing Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo was stabbed with a javelin and half of his face was disfigured, causing a dull pain every night.

Even not long ago, the moment the Overlord's Spear was nailed to the top of the city, Ruyin County Magistrate Zhao Kan was so shocked that he opened the door and surrendered.

Although the city wall of Shangcai was high, at this distance, Zhang Wu didn't think that a third-rate guy could avoid him.

He casually grabbed the spear in the hand of the flying bear cavalryman beside him, Chi Ji ran two steps, Zhang Wu raised the spear and threw it hard.

Lei Bo was originally ready to say a few harsh words, but Zhang Wu took action as soon as he disagreed with him. He was so shocked that he quickly shrank behind the wall.

Zhang Wu had long expected that he would lower his head, and the spear was clearly aimed at the battlements.

There was a loud bang.

The sharp tip of the spear penetrated the battlement and caused a pile of rocks to fall. After the rocks fell, everyone took a closer look and saw that the spear had smashed Lei Bo's head and was nailed to the doorpost of the city tower. The tail of the spear was still trembling.

Looking at Lei Bo again, his whole head was smashed to pieces, leaving only his headless body struggling in vain for two times, and there was no movement at all.

"Zhang Xun, let me ask you again, do you want to open this door or not!"

Zhang Xun quickly wiped away the sweat on his forehead, lay on the top of the city and shouted: "Champion, please calm down, the thief is dead. I will order people to dig open the city gate and welcome you into the city."

"Hmph! You know what's going on."

Report! ~

Zhang Wu's stunned kung fu detective horse had already arrived in front of him: "General, the military counselor calls you back to the camp."

"what's up?"

"Xun Lingjun of Yanzhou sent a letter, but as for the content, my subordinates don't know."

Zhang Wu glanced at Shang Cai again. All the soldiers on the city wall had withdrawn. Zhang Xun obviously didn't want to fight anymore, so he raised his spear and said, "Return to camp."

In the Chinese army's tent, Xun You, Cao Ren, and Yang Xiu were all there.

The sergeants on the left and right have been ordered out of the tent.

Zhang Wu opened the tent and walked to the front seat and sat down: "What does Wen Ruo's letter mean?"

Xun You didn't answer and handed the brocade step in his hand to Zhang Wu's hand.

Zhang Wu spread it out and took a look.

"Lü Bu's troops invaded Puyang, please call General Hussar to return quickly."

Lu Bu! This guy is really here.

It stands to reason that when Lu Bu invaded, Xun Yu should send a message to Cao Cao, but since the letter was clearly sent to him, he also explicitly named him to return as soon as possible.

Either because Lu Bu didn't have many troops under his command, he was suffering from a delicate disease, but the remaining generals in Yanzhou were unable to fight him, so he specially sent himself back to suppress the formation.

Either something happened in Qingzhou and Boss Cao was held back, making it difficult to return support in a short period of time.

Zhang Wu is leaning toward the second option. Lu Bu is only a man. There are 80,000 elite soldiers and dozens of strong generals in Yanzhou. If it is really just a delicate disease, Xun Yu will definitely not know if the war on his side is over. It is impossible to trust yourself at such a critical moment.

At this moment, Zhang Wu was secretly glad that he shot Lei Bo to death with one shot. If it were delayed for another two days, many changes would happen in Runan.

"Zi Xiao."

Hearing Zhang Wu's call, Cao Ren jumped up and stood up immediately, as if he wanted to vent all the resentment he had suffered in half a month: "Humph! You kid won't ask me to stay to clean up the mess again!"

Zhang Wu made a face and shouted in a deep voice: "Cao Ren obeys the order!"

This was no longer a discussion with him, but an order. In all matters in the army, general orders were the most important. Zhang Wu was the chief general and Cao Ren was the deputy general. He could naturally understand the changes in the tone of his voice as he had been leading the army for many years.

No matter how reluctant I am at this moment, I can only turn into a long sigh: "The end is here."

"In the evening, Zhang Xun should open the city and surrender. I want you to recruit troops from various places to shake the three counties."

Cao Ren handed over his hand: "No."

"Gongda, please stay and help me."

Xun You stood up and bowed: "General Hussar, don't worry."

"Dezu, you set out for Geyang at starry night and exchange for Cao Ang. I will give him three days. After three days, if you cannot see him under Puyang City, military law will be engaged!"

"promise!"

Sun Ce gathered the remaining troops all the way, passed Geyang, and reached the border of Xiapi in Xuzhou. He was already exhausted of men and horses.

Looking more closely, the remaining remnants were no more than 2,000, and he was suddenly filled with sadness. He immediately vomited three liters of blood and fell to the ground.

Huang Gai was shocked and had no choice but to seek help from Xuzhou Mu Tao Qian.

Tao Qian, who had always been a man of benevolence and righteousness, immediately took in Sun Ce's troops and called in doctors. Three days later, Sun Ce woke up in the Prefecture Mufu. When he saw Huang Gai standing by the bedside, he asked.

"Uncle Gongfu, where am I?"

Huang Gai served the medicinal soup: "This is Tao Xuzhou's mansion, Bo Fu can rest in peace."

When Sun Ce saw that there was no one around, he said, "It turns out that we have arrived in Xuzhou. Tao Qian is wavering between Cao Cao and Yuan Shu. If he asks, my uncle will only say that he was defeated and resting here. Don't say anything about borrowing the road." I have recovered from my illness, so I will go and talk to him."

To put it bluntly, Tao Qian was just a wallflower. He followed Yuan Shao and waved flags and cheers. Now that Xuzhou and Yuan Shao's Jizhou are not bordering, Yuan Shao can't count on him. He is playing both sides between Cao Cao and Yuan Shu.

Huang Gai didn't know that it was because he stayed in the army all year round, but Sun Ce was different. In Shouchun, Yuan Shu had to take him with him wherever he went, so he naturally knew some of the dirty things among the princes.

Huang Gai's heart skipped a beat when he heard this: "Didn't we already have a plan to pass through Xuzhou?"

Sun Ce rolled out of bed, picked up the medicine bowl and drank it all in one gulp. He looked up to the sky and sighed: "Uncle, things are different now! A few days ago, I led 30,000 soldiers and strong horses. Xuzhou has been weak for a long time. How dare he not lend me his help?" At this moment, I have no more than 2,000 soldiers. I am like a lost dog. Once the bottom is exposed, the situation will be over. I hate Chen Liuzhangwu! He destroyed my foundation and I am incompatible with this thief!!!"

"Bo Fu, it's just Zhang Wu. Let's go back to Kuaiji first and then make plans." Huang Gai was originally planning to persuade Sun Ce, but Zhang Wu was so brave that there was no hope of revenge.

Thinking about returning to Jiangdong in the future, there are thousands of mountains and rivers separating Cao Cao's Yanzhou, and the day of seeing each other is far away, so I won't mention it anymore. If it dampens Sun Ce's spirit, it will be unsightly.
