Lu's relatives

Chapter 173 Qin Xu is scheming, and the second Cao is plotting a secret

In Xiapi City, Tao Qian fainted unexpectedly due to the news of Cao Cao's sudden killing, causing panic to pervade the entire city.The civil and military officials, together with the people in the city, pinned their hopes on Mu Lubu of Qingzhou who was supposed to rescue Xiapi from the siege of the Yellow Turban bandits and the Kanxuan rebel party.

"This Lu Wenhou is the shepherd of Qingzhou. Whether or not my Xuzhou was murdered by Cao Cao has nothing to do with him. I heard that Qingzhou and Yanzhou are still allied. Will he do his best to help us?" Cao Cao's army approached the city, This kind of thinking has almost become the mainstream. Seeing that, except for the doll master in Lu Bu's army who once took people to Cao's camp, Lu Bu's army never formed troops and did not defend the city. In order to avoid suspicion, since the meeting with the officials and people of Jucheng at the North Gate that day, he has never even entered Xiapi City once.It is also inevitable that this kind of remarks that Lu Bu wants to sit on the sidelines will spread everywhere.

The only difference is that, as the three pillars of Xuzhou in Xiapi City, the Cao family in military affairs, the Chen family in political affairs, and the Mi family in business affairs, they uncharacteristically did not stand up to represent Xuzhou to negotiate with Lu Bu again. They went to visit Tao Qian, who was unconscious, as a routine, and stayed behind closed doors one by one, acting like a hermit.It has reassured many people who want to leave Xuzhou to go north or go south to seek refuge.

People who have the intention and ability to take refuge but don't even go out to Xiapi City have never envied the people in Qingzhou who have always been exhausted.Although Qingzhou Mu Lu Bu has a reputation that everyone will slander him, at least he didn't dare to provoke him easily.Even Cao Cao, who "frightened and dizzy" Tao Gong, the state herdsman who owns tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Danyang, who is known as the world's elite Danyang soldiers, ever got a little favor in the previous war against Qingzhou?Everything is illusory, the only way to maintain your own family is if you encounter a rebellious army, will it be possible for someone to rely on your family background to make a knife?With a great god like Lu Bu sitting in the town, if other forces with ulterior motives want to get involved, they must at least weigh whether they can withstand the might of the powerful Qingzhou Army under the shadow of Lu Wenhou's painted halberd.

"It would be great if Lu Wenhou was our Xuzhou shepherd!" This idea, which had never been thought of before, had a considerable market among the people of Xiapi, following the arrival of Cao Jun who threatened to slaughter Xuzhou.Among them, there are also people who looked down upon Lu Bu's background and the means by which he obtained Qingzhou pastor's status at all.

"Lu, Lu Wen is waiting to enter the city!" Just as the people in Xiapi City were panicking and discussing inexplicably because of Cao Jun's camp just outside the city, a voice of surprise with a hopeless life suddenly sounded from the north of Xiapi City. , Almost at an indescribable speed, word of mouth spread.It seemed that these few words gave the people of Xiapi who were already on the verge of collapse a shot in the arm, and immediately attracted everyone's attention.

The north gate of Xiapi City opened early, as if it didn't matter that Lu Bu took the opportunity to seize Xiapi City. The [-] black-clothed black-armored infantry who came from a distance were defeated by a single blow that day. Twice as much as the thieves who had already besieged the city, the elite infantry of Lu Bu, who was already well known to the people of Xiapi, was called Qingzhou soldiers. This time he was slowly approaching Xiapi city. Who is the person who sits on the red rabbit horse like burning coal and holds Fang Tian's painted halberd at a slant, if not Lu Bu who is the most talked about in Xiapi City these days?
"Lv Qingzhou is unparalleled in benevolence and righteousness, and will never abandon my Xuzhou people!" The provocative words that came out from a corner again at the right time, when Lu Bu approached the city gate, completely ignited the pressure that had been feared for the past few days The enthusiasm of the Xiapi people who have suffered enough.Then the voices of shouting and yelling came one after another, like the turbulent waves, wantonly venting the accumulated negative emotions.

"It's probably Zhongming's idea!" Lu Bu pursed his lips, looked back at the carriage surrounded by layers of guards, and said to Cao Xing next to him indifferently: "That kid has a general, Even XX is afraid, but he didn't expect to have the eyeliner of this old fox in Xuzhou! With this pretentiousness, even if XX didn't really win Xuzhou, he won the hearts of Xuzhou people!"

"It's no wonder Master Qin has been advising my lord not to enter Xiapi City so easily, but to wait for him to come back from Cao Ying. It turned out that he had such a plan; and the famous general that Master Qin is raising, it's no wonder that the Lord can give birth to a child." The heart of fear, just this ability to manipulate people's hearts, will eventually be impossible to learn even after 100 years!" Cao Xing has followed Lu Bu for many years, and he did not have so many scruples when he spoke, and he responded casually.

"Huh?" I don't know if Cao Xing's words touched Lu Bu's mind. Just now, Lu Bu, who was full of satisfaction and high spirits, was approaching Xiapi City. After listening to Cao Xing's words, his expression Gradually faded down.This demeanor fell into the eyes of the people of Xiapi City who had heard the news and came to the north gate. They thought that Lu Bu was worried about the matter of Xiapi, and they secretly liked Lu Bu a little more, which was a surprise.

"General Lu! You must save us Xiapi City this time!"

"Yes, General Lu, the people of Xiapi, with a population of 30 men and women, all rely on Wenhou's blessing! You must not leave us behind!"

In the crowd, many people who welcomed Lu Bu into the city with Tao Qian last time, regardless of whether they hindered the march of the army, knelt down on both sides of the city gate and shouted, which caused a lot of echoes.

Lu Bu, who has always been demonized because of his notorious reputation, has never seen that even in the Qingzhou government, Linzi, where the people's hearts have been stabilized because of the exile policy, has never received such treatment.Even the parachutist, who was traveling across the battlefield and facing tens of thousands of troops without changing his face, was actually a little excited at this moment.

popular support!Almost everyone is talking about popular opinion!What is popular opinion?The words of the people in Xiapi who seem to be doing nothing at the moment are the best explanation.Lu Bu also somewhat understood why Qin Xu would rather hide in the carriage and accompany the stinky old man Cao Song at this time than show up again.

"This kid! With such ability, he's too busy to mess around. It seems that we should find someone to take care of him!" Seeing that the more people marched towards the city, the more people came after hearing the news, and finally they even brought the Danyang soldiers from the headquarters. Cao Bao, the Patriarch of the Cao family in Honshu, who came to negotiate the change of defense, actually blocked a thick wall of people between him and Lu Bu. After Cao Bao's persuasive persuasion, he was able to get in touch with Lu Bu smoothly. The popularity in Xuzhou is even higher than when Tao Qian took over Xuzhou, which made him almost confused who is Xuzhou Mu.These words made Lu Bu's face look a lot better immediately, he even shook his head with a self-deprecating smile, and murmured.

"Who is going to be in charge, Wen Hou said? These people are just grateful for you, Wen Hou, who can stand up at this time, and they just came to welcome you spontaneously. I hope Wen Hou will not blame them!" Cao Bao also said. Thinking that Lv Bu was worried about the defense of Picheng and was blaming these people, he hurriedly explained, and at the same time he shouted at the people who still surrounded himself and Lv Bu's army to find a sense of security and almost prevented Lv Bu's Qingzhou soldiers from entering the city: " Everyone is on a blind date, Lu Wenhou has already garrisoned Xiapi this time, our city of Xiapi can be regarded as impenetrable, everyone's safety is guaranteed, let's all disperse, don't stop Wenhou's army from entering the city because of me And it gave the Cao bandits outside the city an opportunity to take advantage of it, and they took advantage of it for nothing!"

"Everyone be quiet!" Lu Bu cleared his throat and said loudly, seeing that Cao Bao, a local aborigine, couldn't suppress the situation.Unexpectedly, this sentence was more effective than Cao Bao's quickest words. Under the "enthusiasm" of the caring people in the crowd to maintain order, it took only a moment for the noisy crowd to calm down and wait for Lu Bu to speak.Lu Bu looked back at the carriage not far behind him again, with a slight smile on his face, he cupped his hands in all directions on Chitu's horse and said loudly to the crowd surrounded by the army: "Thanks to the trust of all the elders in Xuzhou, we welcome you here." For one thing, Bu Shi is extremely ashamed. This time, it was because Tao Gonggong and his ancestors invited him to go to Pi, and Bu thought of the friendship of Linzhou, so he came to Xuzhou. He wanted to go back! But unexpectedly, General Cao of Yanzhou got married with Tao Gong. A little misunderstanding has caused everyone to panic! Qingzhou and Yanzhou have an alliance friendship, and they are in the middle of the situation. I really can't bear the people of Xiapi to be in trouble out of thin air, so now I am temporarily in charge of Xuzhou's defense to protect everyone's safety for a while! Also please elders Get out of the way and let Bu calmly deploy his defenses!"

"Then Cao Cao is outside the city right now, let's quickly get out of the way and let General Lu's elite take over Xuzhou's defense, in case Cao Cao takes this opportunity to seize the city!" As soon as Lu Bu finished speaking, there was a voice in a dark corner. Immediately following Lu Bu's words, he immediately drew echoes from the surroundings, and actually retreated like a tide.

"Don't worry everyone, General Mulu of Qingzhou will definitely save everyone's property and lives! And I have written a letter to General Cao before, stating the advantages and disadvantages. I believe that with the prestige of General Lu, the friendship between Qingzhou and Yanzhou, and the mere misunderstanding between Yanzhou and Xuzhou Don't worry about it, there will be good news in the near future, everyone, wait for my lord Lu Wenhou to retire, how about coming to see him off?" Seeing that the people in Xiapi City retreated temporarily, they made way for Lu Bujun , but there was still a bit of doubt and uneasiness on his face, Qin Xu, who was hiding in the carriage and didn't know about Cao Xing's conversation with Lu Bu, raised the curtain of the carriage, hid behind the window and said loudly, causing great pain , but Cao Song, the ugly old grandpa of the Cao family, rolled his eyes endlessly.At first glance, Qin Xu's words were just words of comfort, but when you think about it carefully, every word is heartbreaking!What does it mean that General Mulu of Qingzhou will definitely protect the lives of the people of Xuzhou?What do you mean by the power of General Lu, only one letter is needed to bring good news to Cao Cao's menacing army who frightened the sick Xuzhou Mu Taoqian?What does it mean to come and see you off after you retire?As a Taiwei before, even though the methods of the superiors were a bit difficult to see, after all, he had experienced the turbulent political struggles in the Han court.Cao Song expressed his contempt for Qin Xu's words that seemed to be for the public in all aspects, but in private, he said everything for himself.

At the same time, Cao Ren, the nephew of Cao Song, the old grandpa of the Cao family, also showed disdain for Qin Xu's "character".Just when Lv Bu swaggered and entered the city, in the Cao army camp outside Xiapi, Cao Ren yelled at his lord Cao Cao in a normal manner: "My lord, did you let Lv Bu win the hearts of Xuzhou people for nothing? As if I was afraid of him? Could it be because of Qin Xu's few words that didn't hurt or itch? If Uncle and Ang'er were both in Linzi, I, Yanzhou, would be bound by Qingzhou in the future! My lord entrusts the old father and eldest son to a thief like Lu Bu, Meng De, how will you face the world? I can't figure it out!"

"Think slowly if you can't figure it out!" Cao Cao quietly listened to Cao Ren's complaints, his face was gloomy, and said, "You also know that the old lady is in Lu Bu's army. I have lost my righteousness. If the news spreads, we will After being tricked by a yellow turban bandit like this, you won’t be laughed at by the world? Besides, Qingyan and Yanzhou are allies, and the old grandpa likes to visit his eldest grandson at the Jixia Academy of Laoshizi. Is it possible for a certain son to stop him? Zixiao, before someone said you were stupid, could it be that you thought it was a joke? Think carefully! Can Tao Qian tolerate Lu Bu who is more popular in his own state than him, a genuine state shepherd? The two states of Qing and Xu are called United , it’s really a restraint, so that I can wait without worry! Only then can we do such a big thing! Besides, you think that there will be a battle in Qingyan and Yanzhou in the end. I can tell you clearly that this is true, but it is definitely not now! We wait The main goal now is to chase down the Yuan Shu who joined forces with foreigners to invade Yanzhou! Now that the Xuzhou Yellow Turban is defeated and fled to the west, the Yuzhou bandit nest Runan County is in chaos, so take this opportunity to take the land of abundant grain in Yuzhou as a backing! This is the most important thing Don’t forget, Zixiao, Son of Heaven, you’ve been in the hands of thieves for almost a year!”

"This...promise!" Cao Ren's face turned red and then blue, and finally he seemed to have swallowed the most difficult thing in the world.
