Three Kingdoms: I rely on system loopholes to survive

Chapter 58 Entering Chang'an

Guo Bang outside the city was waiting for the banner to change at the top of the city, and Zhang Liao on the city wall was also full of hesitation.

It stands to reason that Lu Bu went to the city to find the so-called "military adviser" and it was time to return, and he was about to miss the agreed time with Guo Si.

Zhang Liao intentionally did not change the banner, so that the rebels outside the city could not enter the city, but he only cared about Gao Shun stationed at the city gate, even if he still used the Chang'an banner, when Guo Bang led the troops, Gao Shun would reject him from the gate ?

If it weren't for the captain of the city gate wantonly oppressing the soldiers, Chang'an would not have encountered such difficulties!

Zhang Liao sighed unceasingly, the opportunity for Lv Bu to enter the city can be said to have the best chance.

Taking advantage of the uprising of soldiers in the city, the guards of the city gate were consumed by each other, and they basically had no power to fight again.

Therefore, Lu Bu was able to enter the city easily after only encountering a little resistance, and it was precisely this little resistance that caused Lu Bu to suspect that he was showing his feet, so there were all kinds of things behind.

Misunderstandings and chaos abound.

Man is not as good as God, such a coincidence, maybe it is true, Han Shi...

Zhang Liao stopped the "rebellious" thoughts in his mind in time.

The cuckoo screamed in the drizzle like smoke and mist, looking out of the city from a distance, the sky and the earth seemed to be wrapped in white gauze, and the rain thread passed through the clouds and stitched the soil. Flying insects, ignorant and sticky in this overwhelming net.

Natural accidents are often woven by the most careful and deliberate design.

"General, Marquis Wen ordered the flag to be changed."

Zhang Liao followed his reputation and saw that the person who climbed the city wall was Lv Bu's lieutenant general. He remembered that this person was called "Wang Fang" and had been with Lv Bu for nearly a year.

This name is quite common. The Li Meng whom Marquis Wen admires seems to have a friend named "Wang Fang", but I don't know if it is the same word?
Zhang Liao couldn't help thinking of the information he got when interrogating the Xiliang soldiers who surrendered.

Li Meng was originally the one who led the soldiers to revolt, not the captain of the city gate as Lu Bu thought.

Dare to start an uprising in the big city of Chang'an with thousands of Xiliang soldiers, Zhang Liao couldn't help admiring him for being a man.

In this way, even though Marquis Wen doesn't like people from Xiliang, there are quite a few soldiers and generals from Xiliang in the army...

"Do you have the certificate of Marquis Wen?" Zhang Liao was cautious on the surface, as if he had learned Jia Xu's lesson, but in reality he was holding the idea of ​​procrastination, waiting for all the officials to come down, maybe things could turn around.

Zhang Liao was also aware of Lu Bu's personality. If Situ came forward, Lu Bu would most likely choose to return to Chang'an and stab Guo Bang in the back.

There are about [-] guards in the city, and with nearly [-] soldiers under Marquis Wen, it is not difficult to stick to Chang'an... Although these [-] soldiers still have thousands of Guo Bang's subordinates, if they report to Situ, they will only be transferred to the Southern Army It is also enough.

As for why only Situ was mentioned and not His Majesty... In the eyes of those who participated in the execution of Dong, Situ Quan was "a grand master with a heart for the Han Dynasty".

Emperor, is the emperor as powerful as Situ?

Not only the soldiers under Lu Bu's command were like this, even the guards in the city knew that Situ controlled the military power, they belonged to Situ's leadership, so naturally most of them only talked about Situ, not the emperor.

On the Wang side, he showed a look of embarrassment: "General Zhang, Marquis Wen just ordered Yu Fang casually. Fang thought that the time has come, and the general should have changed the banner. How can I expect..."

His words inevitably meant some complaints. He originally thought that since Zhang Liao knew that the flag was going to be changed in advance, he accepted Lu Bu's order and came to remind him, just to put on a show.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Liao was really just waiting all the time, and never had the slightest intention to change the flag.

Even though Wang Fang was helpless, he had no choice but to go up to the city wall and take Lu Bu's order to speak.

"General, Marquis Wen personally ordered that before he returns, the flag on the top of the city must be changed...otherwise, general, you also know that if Marquis Wen is angry, he will find the soldiers below to vent his anger...it will inevitably lead to chaos."

Zhang Liao was speechless for a moment, secretly hating Jia Xu.

Although he was the first to propose surrender that day, when he was in Guo Si's army, Jia Xu was the most wary of him.

In this plan, Zhang Liao, as the central army, had most of his soldiers who were ordered by Guo Bang to "come to monitor Lu Bu". The reputation of "familiarity with the terrain" fell to his Xiliang army.

Zhang Liao, as the "surrendering army", naturally could not disobey Guo Si's arrangement, and Lu Bu knew that such a distribution would be more conducive to his control of the entire army, so of course he turned a blind eye, closed one eye, and let Jia Xu act and deploy.

Therefore, even though Zhang Liao wanted to attack, he was unable to carry it out.

He let out a breath of turbid air, looked at the owl kiss looming in the rain to the southwest again, and supported the repaired city wall, which appeared to be stronger: "...change it."

"Yes."

The black flag embroidered with the huge "Lv" character slowly rose out of the city wall. Just as it fluttered and unfolded in the wind, it was soaked by the fine raindrops little by little. After a while, the fabric absorbed enough rainwater, and gradually lost its lightness. Hanging down, sticking to the flagpole, crumpled into a ball.

Zhang Xiu saw the changing of the flags at the top of the city, and knew that it was time to enter the city, so he felt a little overwhelmed.

Chang'an, emperor, right.

In today's world, are there any more dazzling words like these three words?

The city, whose outline has been blurred by the rain, is close at hand, as if the tree has matured to the extreme, and the sweet fruit hanging from the branch can be held in the hand just by stretching out the arm.

All things grow from the refinement of rain and dew, and rain also nourishes the young creatures of heaven and earth.

including desire.

Zhang Xiu was still young after all, and under the surge of energy and blood, some unrealistic ambitions appeared in his chest.

If I...

No, my uncle is still suffering in the city, instead of thinking about it here, why not go to the city to save my uncle!
The reality that there were only a few soldiers under his command quickly awakened Zhang Xiu from the sprout of ambition that had just sprouted.

"Wait here and wait for General Guo." Zhang Xiu gave an order, turned into the tent, sat down again, put the spear on his lap, and wiped it carefully.

Chang'an's flag changed so obviously, the scouts sent by Guo Bang naturally noticed it immediately, and hurriedly sent one of them back to report to the general.

Guo Bang was waiting impatiently in the tent, and once he was free, he couldn't help but think wildly.

He actually listened to Jia Xu's words, but after tossing and turning for a long time, Guo Si still chose to believe in the power of the oath. Although he was unavoidably disturbed, he blamed it all on Lu Bu's slow movements and he was too anxious.

Just when his emotions were about to reach their peak, the scout finally arrived belatedly and knelt down to report: "General! The banner on the city has been changed!"

"Okay!" Guo Bang clenched his fist with his right hand and hit the palm of his left hand hard, his face was flushed, and he couldn't hold back his excitement.

"Follow me into the city!"

The heavy city barrier was removed, and Guo Si stood outside the city gate on horseback, staring at the simple and majestic city wall for a long time.

Finally came back here again.

The earthy smell mixed with rainwater lingered in his nostrils, as if he had returned to the situation when Dong Zhuo was there again. No matter how bad Dong Zhuo's reputation among the gentry was, it was nothing to Xiliang people like them.

When the word "Dong Zhuo" is mentioned, the first thing that comes out of my chest is admiration.

Yes, admiration.

It turns out that the emperor can also be held in the hands of us "Xiliang barbarians" and squeezed wantonly...

It can be said that Dong Zhuo used his actual actions to shatter the supreme and mysterious image of imperial power, like a thunderstorm, nourishing the secret and unspoken desires of the people of the world.

However, these young breeds of power desire are often accompanied by greed.

Some people only cared about capturing the rainwater, but never considered the soil needed for the growth of the sprouts. In the end, they were greedy and reckless like weeds.

And some people can curb their greed in time at the moment when the germs protrude from the seed coat, and after a little wet with a few drops of rainwater to maintain their vitality, they curl up on the buds and leaves, and open up the soil layer little by little. When the nutrients are sufficient, Just now, the bud grew from it.

At that time, what should be considered is how to prune the branches and leaves so that the plant will not be too lush.

"General Guo!" Zhang Xiu ordered his soldiers and horses, pretending to be completely ignorant of Guo Bang's back and forth, and as soon as he stepped forward, he saluted Guo Bang with a very respectful gesture.

"General Guo also got the general's order to attack Chang'an first?"

Zhang Xiu specifically asked about this sensitive topic in order to fulfill her image of being "kept in the dark".

The corner of Guo Bang's mouth froze, and he lowered his head to signal Jia Xu to reply Zhang Xiu.

He rebelled against Li Jue. It was impossible to say that he was not guilty at the time, but the desire for power and ambition took root in his heart, overwhelming those guilt and insecurities, leaving only the instinctive desire to grow upward regardless of everything.

Make him back off now?What an idiot!
Jia Xu could do nothing but tidy up his clothes, bowed and saluted, and on behalf of Guo Si, he polished the draft he had typed in his belly a little as an excuse: "General Guo was ordered by the general to encircle Lu Bu together with Xu. Set up an ambush in Gaoling, just wait for Lu Bu to enter the urn."

"Lü Bu is cunning and cunning, seeing that the situation is not good, he immediately joins General Guo."

"Xu thought this was an excellent opportunity to attack Chang'an, so while passing the news to the general on a flying horse, he first entered Chang'an with General Guo through Lv Bu as an internal response."

After Jia Xu finished speaking, she quietly stepped aside, leaving Zhang Xiu to Guo Bang.

Guo Si followed Jia Xu's words and cleared his mind, conscious that there were no flaws exposed, and then continued to smile: "Youwei, I heard that your uncle was trapped in Chang'an City, is it true?"

Guo Bang said this sentence in a polite manner, feeling deeply in his heart that he has the style of a general, but Jia Xu has a headache.

To poke Zhang Xiu so bluntly, is General Guo going to have a fight with Zhang Xiu outside the city now?
What's the benefit to us if we spend some of our troops first?Xu really can't figure it out...

The corners of Zhang Xiu's eyes twitched for a moment, because he was ready to do a little low-key next to Guo Si, but he actually suppressed his anger.

Unexpectedly, it was his reaction that made Jia Xu suspicious.

If Zhang Xiu really didn't know that Guo Si had rebelled and believed his own words, then he and Guo Si belonged to Li Jue at this time, and Zhang Xiu was even broken by Li Jue.

Such a person, who treats his uncle as his own father when he is insulted, is able to remain indifferent?
There are only two possibilities.

Either Zhang Xiu was born with a cool and thin personality, and he never took Zhang Ji into his heart at all.

Either Zhang Xiu knew that he was weak and could only rely on Guo Bang, so he didn't say a word.

Under what circumstances did Zhang Xiu feel that he was going to "conflict" with Guo Si?

Only the position is different, that is to say, Zhang Xiu already knew that Guo Si had betrayed Li Jue.

Thinking of this, Jia Xu couldn't help showing some approval to Zhang Xiu, and then looked back at Guo Bang.

Gee.

The contrast is stark.

If it was Zhang Youwei...Xu could make plans for him.

Jia Xu lowered her head and tidied her sleeves, pretending she hadn't noticed the flaws in Zhang Xiu's words, she stood behind like a clay puppet.

"Youwei, come, enter the city with me!"

Over there Zhang Xiu and Guo Si had already entered Chang'an, while here Lu Bu followed Yang Qi, his thoughts were confused.

Although he had previously decided to return to Chang'an, but now that Zhong Boheng died unexpectedly, it is hard to guarantee that Situ will not have a gap in his heart.

Besides, Yang Qi... After all, Lu Bu was killed all the way on the battlefield, how could he not detect the killing intent on Yang Qi?I just don't want to offend the gentry, and end up ruined and decapitated in the end.

Lu Bu may not be very intelligent, but that doesn't mean he really has no plans at all.

At least in the matter of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, so far he is still playing very smoothly (referring to whichever side has more benefits, jump to whichever side).

"Servant, why did we go to the southern army to lead the army?"

Seeing that Yang Qi was silent and just walking forward, Lu Bu finally couldn't help asking.

Yang Qi stopped and turned to let Lu Bu walk side by side with him.

The current situation in the palace is unknown, even if Yang Qi doesn't want to see Lv Bu, he knows that he can't provoke Lv Bu at this time, if Lv Bu rebels again, the city of Chang'an really cannot be defended.

Yang Qi recalled the fear of being dominated by those Xiliang barbarians, and the hair on the back of his neck exploded.

These people don't care whether you belong to the gentry or not, they are all savages who drink blood and drink blood, and their minds are not open, they only care about their own happiness.

There is no difference between killing the officials of the court and officials, and slaughtering chickens and ducks.

Dong Zhuo...

This person is really guilty!
Yang Qi whipped the corpse of Dong Zhuo in his heart again, pondered for a moment, and chose to only tell Lu Bu part of the truth.

"Soldiers in the city have caused unreasonable disturbances in the past few days. Qi is going to send the Southern Army to suppress it. If Marquis Wen helps, it will surely get twice the result with half the effort. Qi might as well speak a few words of kindness in front of Situ for Marquis Wen."

"Oh... that's true..."

Even if Lu Bu raised his heart, he didn't see any rebellion when he entered the city. Li Meng, the "Lieutenant of the City Gate", was still in his hands. If the soldiers rebelled, how could they surrender those Xiliang troops? A trace of resistance?
This Yang Qi has lied to me, but I don't know what he is hiding?
So eager for my soldiers... Could it be that something major happened in Chang'an City, and the Southern Army is not enough to put it down?
Lu Bu's IQ came online once in a while, and he forcibly drew a correct conclusion from a bunch of wrong facts.

Now that he had something to rely on, Lv Bu became more confident. While guessing what happened in the court, he smiled at Yang Qi: "The court still needs to rely more on the support of the servants, so Bu will go to organize the soldiers first. What does the waiter think?"

Yang Qi paused, a little surprised.

The reason why he kept silent all the way was because he wanted to lure Lu Bu to the Southern Army first.

No matter how invincible he is, facing thousands of well-trained Habayashi army, Lu Bu can't retreat completely. As long as he captures Lu Bu by himself, are you still worried about lack of strength?There is no need to worry about the possibility of Lu Bu's rebellion.

With such careful planning, how could Lu Bu suddenly propose to leave at this moment?

Yang Qi still didn't know that the accident on his body had leaked out, so Lu Bu was alerted.

After all, as a son of a noble family, Yang Qi's expression management can be said to be flawless. He was sure that his face had not revealed the slightest thought in his heart, and he couldn't help being puzzled by Lu Bu's reaction that exceeded his expectations.

He stared into Lu Bu's eyes for a long time, but couldn't find anything wrong, and finally had to compromise.

"Then leave it to Marquis Wen."

In desperation, Yang Qi had no choice but to "beg for mercy", and bowed to Lu Bu to the end, earnestly begging.

Lu Bu was flattered to receive such a great gift, his heart was filled with enthusiasm, and he patted his chest and promised to Yang Qi: "Don't worry, the waiter, Bu is only devoted to the Han Dynasty, and he will be here in no time. Southern army camp, help the servants!"

Lu Bu clasped his fists and saluted, then turned his head and walked towards the gate of the city, his back unexpectedly gave rise to some tragic feeling of "the wind is rustling, the water is cold, and the strong man will never return once he is gone".

"It's a pity... When I went back to Chang'an, the military division was not found, and even the Chitu was lost. The gain outweighs the loss!"

Lu Bu thought he was dead. Zhong Ping: I think I can still save him.

Zhongping was rolled up in the broken mat, staring at a pair of dead fish eyes.

I didn't expect that after exploiting the loopholes in the system so many times, I would stumble and be tricked by the system.

what is this?
Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, isn't it not the time to not repay?

Zhong Ping froze, unable to move, he thought that the old Yinbi outside was planning to throw him into a mass grave or something?

I read so many novels before time travel, but I have never seen a time traveler as unlucky as myself...

Eh?
There seems to be movement outside?
Kind of flattened his ears, and now he is used to the pain, besides feeling a little itchy, there is only numbness left.

"...I will accept 'Zhang Ji' first. Although 'Guo Si' is not easy to use, it is enough to leave 'Li Jue' for your envoy."

Zhongping faintly heard the two voices outside seem to be talking about something, mixed with the crisp sound of chess pieces falling.

"'Li Meng'? What do I need this loose chess for? Then 'Li Meng' can still be used."

Why does this sound seem familiar...

Zhong Ping narrowed his eyes and carefully identified the younger male voice. He always felt that he had heard this person's voice not long ago, and even had a conversation with him...

It's just that the more familiar Zhong Ping felt, the more he couldn't figure out where he had heard this voice before.

There seems to be a thin thread broken in two in my mind, as long as it is aligned with the cut, it can be connected seamlessly, but it just can't catch the end of the thread.

"Liquidated?"

I have experienced the hoarse "ho ho" inquiry like a flame, with the unique fascination of the elderly.

"Yeah, 'Wang Yun' is lost."

The familiar voice answered lightly.

Zhong Ping only heard the extremely dull sound of the collision of the chess pieces and the chessboard.

He held his breath.

It seems that someone is coming in.
