Demon of the Three Kingdoms

"My child sees Father Zhong!"

"Bufan is here, sit down!"

"Thank you Zhongfu!"

"Father Zhong, your body?" Seeing Cao Cao's tired face, Lu Rui asked with concern.

"Bufan has a heart. Father Zhong is fine. He may be a bit old. Back then, he went to Luoyang with Bufan. He felt refreshed after several nights of sleepless nights. Now..."

"Father Zhong, defeating the Xiliang Army will not happen overnight, Father Zhong still needs to take care of his health."

"Don't worry, Bufan, Father Zhong knows his body. Hearing from Zhongkang, Bufan has something important to ask Father Zhong?"

"Exactly, the boy came here to offer a plan to help Zhong's father out of trouble."

"Oh? What's Bufan's plan, come quickly."

"Yes, Father Zhong!"

"Father Zhong, Han Sui of the Xiliang Army has eight strong generals..." Then Lu Rui told Cao Cao about the eight strong generals, and suggested that Cao Cao divide the Xiliang Army with a plan of separation.

"Bufan means to use alienation? But what is the chance of success?" Cao Cao listened to Lu Rui's suggestion and pondered for a while. I am afraid that this is the only way to break the deadlock now. However, Cao Cao does not have much confidence in his heart. , after all, there is not much information about the eight masters.

"Father Zhong, I don't know what the chances are, but I decided to go to Anding in person and convince Cheng Yi, Yang Qiu and others who are stationed in Anding. If they succeed, Father Zhong can march north and defeat the Xiliang army! "

"How sure are you of Bufan?"

"Father Zhong, Rui is confident that Yang Qiu, Cheng Yi, and others will not harm the boy. As for whether the stable Xiliang army can be surrendered to our army, the boy is not absolutely sure. But I am willing to give it a try!" Lu Rui cupped his hands .Answer Cao Cao.

"Father Zhong knows, Bufan will go down first, Father Zhong will think about it."

"Yes, boy, leave!"

After withdrawing from Cao Cao's room, Lu Rui visited Jiang Jiong, Wei Duan, Wei Kang, Yang Fu and others respectively.These people are all people who have lived in Xiliang for a long time.You should know something about Han Sui's eight generals, and Lu Rui wants to get more information.

After visiting these people, Lu Rui got some important information.

First of all, Han Sui's eight generals were all from humble backgrounds, and they were all born as warriors. Taking advantage of Dong Zhuo's rebellion in Xiliang, he took the opportunity to separate one side.This is also one of the reasons why Han Sui's eight-strong army is so powerful.

Secondly, Han Sui's Eight Generals.Yang Qiu, Cheng Yi, Liang Xing, and the four candidates were nominally Han Sui's subordinates, but in fact they only respected Han Sui as the leader of the alliance.These four were originally self-reliant generals. In view of Han Sui's strength and the canonization of the court, they joined Han Sui.

In the end, Han Sui had always had ambitions to take back the military power of the four candidates Yang Qiu, Cheng Yi, and Liang Xing, and the four were quite dissatisfied with Han Sui.

After Lu Rui got this information, he became more confident in persuading the four to surrender.

"Master Hou, General Yan is asking to see you!"

"Oh? General Yan, please come in!" Lu Rui has been dealing with some trivial official documents in his yard these days.

"See Lord Hou!"

"Yanming, please stand up and give me a seat!"

"Thank you, Lord!"

"Yanming, I don't know why Yanming came to Rui's courtyard today, what's the matter?"

"Master Hou, I heard that Lord Hou intends to go to Anding and persuade the Xiliang army to surrender. I wonder if it is true?"

"So Yan Ming also knew about this?" Lu Rui smiled, it seems that Cao Cao summoned Yan Xing to inquire about the situation of the Xiliang Army.

"Exactly, I have something to ask for, and I hope Lord Hou will grant it."

"Oh? What's the matter with Yanming that I want the Marquis to give me permission?"

"Return to Lord Hou, if Lord Hou goes to Anding, I hope Lord Hou will take you with me to go with you."

"Yanming wants to go to Anding with Benhou?"

"Exactly, Lord Hou, who has lived in Xiliang for a long time and knows the Xiliang army well. What's more, this trip was used by Ma Chao to prevent Lord Sikong from going north. Xing is willing to go with Lord Hou, and it will be a crime."

"So that's the case. If Yanming has the heart, he can go to Anding with me. I also need someone who is familiar with the situation. Yanming came here and solved a problem for me!"

"Thank you, Lord!"

"Master Hou, Lord Sikong sent someone to tell Master Hou to go to the study." The servant outside the door suddenly interrupted their conversation and told Lu Rui that Cao Cao wanted to summon Lu Rui.

"Well, Master Ben knows, so I'll go right away." It seems that Cao Cao decided to let Lu Rui's mission to settle down.

"My son sees Father Zhong!" Soon Lu Rui came to Cao Cao's study.

"Bufan is here, sit down!"

"Thank you Zhongfu!"

"Bufan, Father Zhong has already discussed with Fengxiao and Gongda, and decided that Bufan can go to Anding and try to persuade the generals of the Xiliang army in Anding."

"The boy will definitely live up to Zhong's father's expectations."

"If you go here, you must be careful in everything. Anding is always under the control of the Xiliang Army. Don't forget to put your own safety first. If you can't persuade you to surrender, you should leave Anding in time."

"Yes, my son understands, please rest assured Father Zhong."

"Well, Bufan is stepping back, Father Zhong has already made arrangements, and he can go to Anding tomorrow."

"Yes, Father Zhong, my son will leave."

On the second day, Lu Rui took Yan Xing, Jiang Jiong, Yang Fu and fifty tiger and leopard horse guards, crossed the Wei River in the dark, and headed for Anding.Dian Wei stayed in Chang'an because he was too big to disguise.

"Master Hou, the city of Anding is ahead, shall we send someone to investigate?" After a three-day journey, Lu Rui and his party arrived at the woods on the outskirts of Anding, and Yan Xing asked for an investigation.

"Okay, Yanming, be more careful!"

Soon, Yan Xing came back with two personal guards.

"Master Hou!"

"Yanming, I have entered Anding territory now. I am Mr. Lu, a businessman from Hedong. Yanming must remember."

"Yes, Mr. Lu!" Yan Xing quickly understood that Lu Rui wanted to cover up his identity.

"Well, Guard Yan, how is An Ding doing now?"

"Mr. Lu, the gate of Anding City is currently guarded by heavy soldiers, but merchants who come and go in and out can enter the city as long as they pay enough gold."

"Well, since that's the case, Guard Yan, let's go into the city!"

"Yes, son!"

When Lu Rui and his party arrived at the gate of the city, they were stopped by the deputy general of the defenders.

"Stop, who are you?"

"Reporting to Lord Jun, we are merchants from Hedong, and we came to Xiliang to do business. Lord Jun, it's a small thing, it's not a respect!" After speaking, Jiang Jiong took out some gold from his bosom and stuffed it into the deputy general's hand.

"So he's a big businessman from the east of the river? I'm sorry. As the so-called wealth and wealth are in danger, it is the easiest time to get rich." The deputy general saw Jin Zi, his face burst into a smile, and he even joked about Jiang Jiong.

"Thanks to the words of the military master, the villain finished his business in Xiliang and returned to Anding, and will pay a visit to the military master again!"

"Okay! I'm a sensible person. I'm in Anding. If you have anything to do, come to me!" The deputy general understood Jiang Jiong's words, which was a hint that the caravan trade would offer generous gifts after returning.

"Come on, let the caravan enter the city!" (To be continued...)
