The Assassin Empire of the Three Kingdoms

When Cao Zhen led Cheng Yu to South Street Crossing panting, the carriage was still parked there, the surroundings were dead silent, and there were two corpses beside the carriage, one was the driver and the other was Cao Xiu's guard.

"Brother!" Cao Zhen shouted, but there was no response, only the carriage shook vigorously a few times.Cheng Yu waved his hand, and the two soldiers rushed forward.Cao Xiu was tied up like a rice dumpling, his mouth was covered with his clothes, and he couldn't move at all in the car.The soldiers hurriedly untied Cao Xiu and helped him remove the clothes from his mouth.

"Sir, this...!" Cao Zhen hesitated to speak.

Cheng Yu shook his head: "Those people seem to be showing mercy! They only want Xu Chu and don't want to hurt you. I think that's the end of this matter!"

"No!" Cao Xiu was furious, his face flushed red: "If you don't take revenge, I can't swallow it! Let's go, call the brothers, let's search! I don't believe that this group of people can grow wings and fly. !"

"Brother! Those people are very powerful, let's..."

Before Cao Zhen could finish speaking, Cao Xiu gave him a hard look: "If you don't go, I'll go! I must catch them!"

Seeing Cao Xiu's angry back, Cao Zhen and Cheng Yu looked at each other, and both shook their heads.Even though he said that, these children of the Cao family could not be harmed. Cheng Yu still took [-] soldiers from the Xuncheng camp and handed them over to Cao Xiu.That night, Dongjun was not quiet all night.In all four directions, there was the sound of shouting and breaking things.The next day, Cao Xiu came back with a dejected look on his face.You don't have to ask to know, and you will definitely get nothing.Cao Zhen hurriedly comforted him, and the matter seemed to be just like that.

In fact, Long Fei didn't leave, he just stayed in the inn with his subordinates.Last night, according to Chen Dao's information, Long Fei intercepted Cao Xiu halfway.According to Long Fei's intention, he would not let Cao Xiu, Cao Zhen and the Cao family's nephews, big and small, let them go.Meng Shuo suggested not to kill.Now the relationship between Long Fei and Cao Cao is very delicate, and the two have formed an alliance with a strange balance. As long as there is a slight problem between the two sides, it will inevitably lead to another big battle.

Long Fei snorted coldly: "Capital crimes can be forgiven, living crimes are hard to forgive, I'll tie you up! Shut up, go back and tell Cao Cao, you'd better live in peace, and if you do anything unfavorable, I'll burn your East County!" "

Cao Xiu stared at Long Fei with wide eyes.But I am alone and completely unable to fight against others, so I can only bear it for the time being.After returning to the inn, Chen Dao proposed to leave Dongjun immediately.According to Cao Xiu's character, this matter will never be let go.To avoid further conflicts, escaping from East County is the best option.Long Fei smiled: "Don't go, the most dangerous place is always the safest, just stay here and see what that Cao Xiu wants to do!"

Cheng Yu's five hundred city patrol soldiers were nominally helping Cao Xiu find the assassin's whereabouts, but in fact they were here to protect Cao Xiu, so they were not so serious in their work.Therefore, it took a whole night's effort to find out the whereabouts of Long Fei and the others.

After a good night's sleep, Long Fei stretched his waist, put on his clothes and got off the bed. There were already many people in the yard.Today they were going back to Wancheng, and the rescue of Xu Chu went quite smoothly, completely exceeding their expectations.Going out and getting on their horses, a group of soldiers and horses marched mightily towards the gate of the city.Before reaching the gate, a group of common people gathered at the gate of the city and discussed from afar.

When I came to the front, I found out after inquiring that this Yanzhou was about to face a catastrophe.All the people gathered here were going out of the city, but the State Shepherd's Mansion ordered the four gates to be closed, and no one was allowed to enter.Some young juniors are arguing with a few defenders, and they are about to start fighting.The captain pulled out his sword with a "choke" and flashed it in front of his eyes: "What? You want to rebel? Take a step forward and arrest them all!"

The families of the younger students hastily pulled them back.Although the crowd was angry, they did not dare to make fun of their own lives.Chen Dao hurried forward: "What should we do? We can't get out!"

"What are you afraid of? With my old Dian here, the big deal is to kill him."

Long Fei shook his head: "Don't make trouble, the purpose of our visit this time is to rescue Xu Chu, this is Cao Cao's territory, we will be at a disadvantage if we do something! Go back and talk about it first."

Several people just turned around.A loud shout came from behind: "Stay, General! Stay!" A thin scribe hurriedly ran to Long Fei's horse, and bowed his hands in salute: "Stay, General, I was looking around, but I didn't expect to meet you here, hurry up Come with me."

This person is Xi Zhicai, Long Fei has a little impression, and he is also from Yingchuan. Although he has been with Cao Cao for a long time, Cao Cao also trusts him, but it seems that Xi Zhicai has no Cheng Yu, Dong Zhao and others in Cao Cao in the past few years. Active in front.Seeing that he was a talent for acting, Long Fei's heart was only half relieved: "Sir, do you know me?"

"Naturally, who doesn't know General Zhang? Hurry up, last time you helped me so much, I haven't thanked you yet! Come with me, come with me!"

People were a little strange at first, thinking that these people were the ones who had made a fuss last night, and the gatekeepers had already surrounded them, but they heard that Xi Zhicai said the person's surname was Zhang, so they went back to their respective jobs.Follow Xi Zhicai through two streets, get into a small alley, and enter Xi Zhicai's home through the back door.The yard is not big, and there are not many houses. Two or three old servants are cleaning the yard.Seeing that Xi Zhi came in with so many people, there was really no place to settle down for a while.

Long Fei asked the guards to rest in the backyard, and only brought Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Chen Dao, and Meng Shuo into the living room.The servants hurriedly served tea and divided the guests and hosts into their seats.Before Xi Zhicai could speak, Long Fei looked at Xi Zhicai: "Sir, my surname is not Zhang..."

Xi Zhicai hurriedly raised his hand, stopping Long Fei from continuing to say: "No matter what the general's surname is, my surname is Zhang. Why didn't the general leave last night, but chose to leave the city during the day?"

Long Fei smiled: "Everyone guessed that I left last night, but I didn't. Everyone thought I wouldn't leave today, but I left today. Mr. is an expert, so you don't understand the key point?"

"Hahaha..." Xi Zhicai laughed loudly: "The general is said to be insidious and cunning, but today it seems to be true, but now that the city gate is closed, how can the general leave the city?"

Long Fei shook his head: "I haven't figured it out yet, sir please teach me!"

Speaking of such a big movement in Dongjun, it is not groundless.The last time Yuan Shu of Yangzhou attacked Xuzhou, Cao Cao had already promised to do so, and he had already sent troops.But at the critical moment, they suddenly withdrew their troops.Yuan Shu had to face Liu Bei alone, and the result was a disastrous defeat.Yuan Shu put the grudge on Cao Cao's head.This time, Cao Cao raided Wancheng and asked Yuan Shu to join forces. According to Yang Hong's idea, Yuan Shu agreed wholeheartedly, but waited and watched.

Cao Cao defeated Lushan and lost most of his troops.Yang Hong rolled his eyes: "My lord, Cao Cao's new defeat, the soldiers are exhausted and they are far away in Yingchuan. If we suddenly send troops to attack Dongjun, we can take Yanzhou in one fell swoop. Sitting on such a large area, Liu Bei is surrounded by enemies. If you don't surrender, you can't let him!"

"Hmm...?" Yuan Shu hesitated: "Liu Bei is not stupid. If we send troops, we must see the key. Attack, who can be?"

Yang Hong laughed and said, "My lord, don't worry, I have a plan to protect Liu Bei himself, and I have no intention of attacking my Shouchun!"

After Lv Bu's defeat, all the Yuan brothers took possession of him, and only Liu Bei took him in to live in Xiaopei temporarily.Xiaopei is a small place, and there are enemies on all sides. Even if Lu Bu could live here, if he changed the other generals, he would have been lost.Today's Lu Bu has no more than seven or eight thousand troops, and three or four generals, all supported by Chen Gong.Those rhetoric and rhetoric in the past have been forgotten.

Chen Gong opened his eyes and closed his eyes indifferently.Until one day, he came to Lu Bu in a hurry and snatched the flagon from his hand: "General, our chance has come!"

"What chance?" Lu Bu's eyes were hazy with drunkenness, and he was completely listless.

Chen Gong leaned on Lu Bu's ear and whispered for a while.Lu Bu sat up suddenly, staring at Chen Gong with wide eyes: "Really?"

Chen Gong nodded: "The people from Shouchun personally spoke about this matter, and I have already agreed to them. After the matter is completed, the two families will always form an alliance and will not attack each other!"

Lu Bu's eyes slowly gathered.He saw hope, but after thinking about it again, he felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly turned his head: "Then I will become a helper? Besides, Mr. Liu is kind to us! This matter..."

Chen Gong smiled: "General, Long Fei once said that there are no permanent friends or enemies in this world, but only permanent benefits. After things are done, why bother what he said now? The alliance letter and kindness are all fine. No! Only what is actually in your hand is your own!"

Yuan Shu suddenly sent troops to Cai, and Liu Bei in Xuzhou couldn't sit still.Hastily convened everyone to discuss.Chief Shi Chen Deng hurriedly said: "Yuan Shu sent troops this time, the purpose is not clear, we should be on guard early, so as not to mess up the position when we get there, we can send two groups of soldiers and horses like last time, one way Lu Bu sent troops to Lingbi to confront Yuan Shu, one way You can send General Guan to lead the army to garrison Huaiyin to restrain Yuan Shu and prevent him from making any changes!"

Liu Bei nodded, turned to Chen Gui and asked, "My lord, what do you think?"

Chen Gui shook his head slightly: "Deng'er's words are somewhat reasonable, but this old man thinks it's inappropriate to send Lu Bu to Lingbi, and Lu Bu is also a tiger and a wolf! It's best to let him stay in Xiaopei peacefully, if he is released, he may be hurt People, Master State Shepherd can lead an army by himself, and leave three generals to guard the city, so nothing will happen."

"Hehe!" Xi Zhicai smiled: "Unexpectedly, Liu Bei's subordinate Cao Bao colluded with Lu Bu and took Xuzhou, and Yuan Shu's Chen Bing went to Cai is also a fake, Yuan Shu's general Zhang Xun led [-] troops to cross Xiacai and take Liangdu directly. We are about to enter Dongjun, and Cao Cao's army is far away in Yingchuan, so Cheng Yu had no choice but to order the city gate to be sealed!"

Long Fei was not overly surprised. Although there were some small differences between what Xi Zhicai said and the development of history, the big trend remained unchanged.Lu Bu captured Xuzhou and drove Liu Bei to Xiaopei, so it was inevitable for Yuan Shu to attack Cao Cao.But he was a little worried, whether because of his appearance, the outcome of the battle between Cao and Yuan would be changed, which would be troublesome.
