The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 71 Fighting against Jia Xu
On the ninth day when Xiliang soldiers surrounded Chang'an City, it was still the Xuanping Gate on the east wall. Dongfang Sheng was looking at the oars built by Xiliang soldiers on the opposite side of the horse wall. After spying and shooting at the city gates, after nine days, they even built earthen mountains and towers.

The scull above the hopeful building can not only shoot the guards at the city gate with a strong crossbow, but also spy on the situation inside the city.

And at the same time Dongfang Sheng was looking at Xiliang Bing Loulu, there was also someone looking at him from the watchtower of Xiliang Bing Loulu, and this was Jia Xu.

It's strange, this Wang Yun was originally a guy who was arrogant and arrogant, and once he gained power, he would raise his tail and attack dissidents, and Lu Bu who was with him was even more brave and foolish. Li Jue and the others sent scouts into the city to look for the internal response, and there is no news so far?Jia Xu looked suspiciously at the city gate through the watchtower, and suddenly saw a nine-foot-tall, Chinese-character face, tiger-backed wolf-waisted, and extraordinary bearing young general sitting on the horse wall of Xuanping Gate.

"Who is this person?" Jia Xu turned around and asked Li Jue.

Li Jue leaned forward to take a look, and said with a smile, "This man is Dongfang Sheng, the Fenwu General who assassinated Dong Gong after serving as a lieutenant under Niu Fu."

"Oh, what is this person's character?" Jia Xu was startled, but asked calmly on the surface.

"This man is lustful and money-hungry, and he has no strategy. He is just a general of luck." Li Jue sneered.

Jia Xu's eyes flickered and he didn't sneer along with Li Jue, his heart was already full of turmoil: So it turned out to be Dongfang Sheng, tsk tsk, I want to see if you can hold Chang'an City.

Dongfang Sheng also saw the middle-aged man who looked like a great Confucian in the watchtower opposite Loulu, and Shi Qian immediately went to Dongfang Sheng's side and said, "This person's surname is Jia Mingxu, and his characters are harmonious. He was originally sent by Dong Zhuo." To Duan Yan's counselor, Niu Fu later took over Duan Yan's power, and he followed Niu Fu. It is said that he was the main counselor of Xiliang soldiers besieging the city this time."

As the captain of the scout battalion, Shi Qian was naturally in charge of inquiring about the enemy's news. The matter of Jia Xu wasn't too secretive in the first place, so they could naturally find out about it.

"He's Jia Xu!" Dongfang Sheng was startled. In Dongfang Sheng's impression, Jia Xu was a very good strategist. At the same time, he also knew that the siege of Chang'an City this time was also a strategy of Jia Xu.

Okay, I will fight with you, the tumbler adviser under Cao Cao.Dongfang Sheng clenched the remaining blood in his hands with pride.

Jia Xu is the longest-lived guy among Cao Cao's advisers, and has always been deeply trusted by Cao Cao. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a tumbler.

When Dongfang Sheng was about to go down the city, Huang Wan came up again, and Huang Wan with a smile took Dongfang Sheng's hand affectionately and said, "Brother Tenglong, Lord Lu Shang Shushi and General Lu would like to invite you to come over to the house." Let’s make an apology for what happened that day.”

Dongfang Sheng hadn't spoken yet. Wang Hu, who knew the whole story of the day by his side, couldn't help but jumped out and scolded: "It was you who deceived my lord to go to Weiyang Palace that day. You came again today, don't you? Still want to murder my lord?"

What Wang Hu said made Huang Wan blush. He really didn't know about the last assassination incident, but Dongfang Sheng almost died because of it.So it was really helpless for Huang Wan to come to invite this time, because Wang Yun felt that he was the most suitable person to invite Dongfang Sheng.

"Don't you treat Mr. Huang like this, Wang Hu?" Dongfang Sheng patted Huang Wan's shoulder with a smile and said, "Tell Mr. Lushang Shushi that I will come to the banquet on time."

Seeing that Dongfang Sheng promised to avoid embarrassment, Huang Wan apologized and left directly.

"Lord!"

The six captains behind Dongfang Sheng shouted in unison, they naturally did not want Dongfang Sheng to be in danger again.

Dongfang Sheng waved his hand, and the six school lieutenants all fell silent. Since Dongfang Sheng has been ordered to prohibit Dongfang Sheng, the others can't say anything more.

"This subordinate is willing to bring two hundred elites from the Shenyu Battalion to the banquet with your lord." Zhao Kai stepped forward and said.

Two hundred people standing next to me with strong crossbows, what does it look like to watch me eat?The corners of Dongfang Sheng's eyes twitched and he said, "Shi Qian, you take your scout battalion to lurk outside Wang Yun's mansion in advance, and if there is any change, immediately notify Zhao Kai's Shenyu battalion to come, that's all."

"Yes, my lord!" Shi Qian took command.

Dongfang Sheng turned to Chu Jian again and said, "Tomorrow it's time for you to go out of the city and attack the camp."

"Yes, I will let those Xiliang soldiers know how powerful I am in the Yanyue Camp!" Chu Jian said, patting his chest.

Dongfang Sheng decided that except for the Shenyu Battalion and the Scout Battalion, the other four battalions had to go out of the city to harass the opponent's barracks every day, so that the opponent was always on alert. Over time, they would also feel tired and their morale would be hit.

After giving the order, Dongfang Sheng got off the horse wall.

When he got home, Dongfang Sheng took off his blood-soaked armor, threw it into the bucket, took off the robe he was wearing, and began to wash his body with cold water.

After taking a shower, Dongfang Sheng put on a Zen robe with a straight train. He was going to Wang Yun's banquet later, and Dongfang Sheng didn't want to dress too grandly.

Although the clothes are loose, they don't feel discordant at all on Dongfang Sheng's body. He already has an aura that is different from ordinary people. These days, he has defended the city and is constantly familiar with the military situation of this period. Dongfang Sheng also has more in his eyes. confident.

Even if I can't reverse history, I can still survive in this troubled world!A confident smile appeared on the corner of Dongfang Sheng's mouth.

"My lord is back?" Zhang Liang brought a bowl of hot mutton soup and put it on the table. "Drink a bowl of hot soup to warm up your body first."

Dongfang Sheng picked up the mutton soup and drank it beautifully. He suddenly thought of Su Fang in his heart, and his longing for a moment came like a tide. Dongfang Sheng suddenly felt that he had the urge to go to Jizhou to see her directly.

I can't rush to meet her, can Su Shuang accept me?So what if I accept it, the world will be in chaos, how can I stand in the chaos if I don't have enough strength?The mutton soup in Dongfang Sheng's bowl had already bottomed out, but his thoughts continued to expand.

Zhang Liang watched Dongfang Sheng's complexion change from side to side, and retreated wisely.

"Hey, I'd rather be a Taiping dog." Dongfang Sheng sighed leisurely. In modern times, even if he is a mercenary who licks blood on the tip of a knife, as long as he completes the task, he can enjoy it in peace, but here OK?
Leaving aside whether the system is good or bad, the following troubled times alone will be enough for ordinary people to drink a pot. War will always hurt the people, and in the era of the Three Kingdoms, when a man with a gun is the grass head king, the people have a miserable life. Undoubtedly, there have been data showing that the population at the peak of the Three Kingdoms period was only a little more than half of that in the Han period.

Moreover, from the beginning of the Three Kingdoms to the return to Jin Dynasty for more than 70 years, except for a few years without wars, there were wars every year, and the population dropped sharply.

Dayi Dongfang Sheng doesn't want to defend, he just wants to have a stable society so that he can live a comfortable life.
