Chapter 517
After a while, Cheng Hu, who had regained his composure, hurriedly ordered the archer to put away the thing in his hand and aim the arrow at the general facing the right, which was also very disrespectful.

The soldiers put down their guard, Cheng Hu saluted Lu Bu respectfully, and said as if walking on thin ice: "Marquis Wen, you should be in Chang'an, why are you here in Hanzhong?"

Lu Bu looked up at Cheng Hu, and said indifferently, "Why am I here, do I need to report to you in advance?"

Cheng Hu's heart trembled, and he didn't even have half the thought of refuting, and quickly admitted his mistake: "I don't dare to be humble."

"Quickly open the city gate to me, this general wants to enter the city to rest!" Lu Bu said in an extremely domineering tone.

Cheng Hu's heart pounded, his face was filled with embarrassment, and his expression was hesitant: "Marquis Wen, when the county guard left, he ordered that no one should be allowed into the city..."

"You want to stop me?"

Lu Bu frowned, and his eyes turned cold again.

It stands to reason that the imperial court is the most powerful, but Cheng Hu is a general who was single-handedly promoted by Su Gu. To him, Su Gu's orders are to some extent higher than the emperor's holy words.

What's more, Lu Bu smuggled in with a large number of soldiers and horses by climbing mountains and wading across rivers.

Without knowing their intentions, they must not be allowed to enter the city, lest they cause disaster.

Cheng Hu gritted his teeth, and punched Lu Bu: "Marquis Wen, I'm sorry!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a '咻' sound through the air, and a cold light shot from the side, its momentum was like electricity, and it was as fast as thunder.

Chi!
The sharp arrows pierced through Cheng Hu's head, and the guard of the Southern Zhengbei City Gate fell down before he had time to react, his eyes widened, staring blankly at the blue sky and white clouds above him.

The soldiers looked in the direction of the arrows, and two soldiers showed their figures at a very inconspicuous position on the left side of the city wall.

One of them holds a long ax in his hand, and his body is very majestic; the other is wearing a mask, so he can't see his face clearly, and his figure is not too tall, but he holds a bow made of beef tendons in his hand. kill.

Pan Feng twisted his neck twice, pulled off the kerchief on his head, revealed a ferocious and bloodthirsty face, and shouted loudly: "Everyone who is sensible, let me put down the suspension bridge and open the city gate. Otherwise, you will be killed all of you!" Light!"

Pan Feng was full of momentum, and with a big ax in his hand, he stood there like a bottle of evil god, so deterrent that the soldiers in the city did not dare to move forward for a while.

"Brothers, open the door. You are like brothers from Cangling Pass. Marquis Wen came here this time only to arrest Su Gu."

"Su Gu disobeyed the king's order and rebelled against the imperial court. This is a crime of beheading. Don't be stupid and help the villain!"

"Quickly open the city gate!"

The soldiers at Cangling Pass shouted loudly in Hanzhong dialect below to persuade them to surrender.

As soon as Cheng Hu died, the officers and men in the city had already lost their sense of proportion. In addition, the person in the city was the prestigious Wenhou Lv Bu. Now that the soldiers at Cangling Pass persuaded him like this, the soldiers at the top of the city immediately put down their weapons and opened the city to welcome Lu Bu entered the city.

The drawbridge was lowered and the city gates opened.

Lu Bu led the soldiers behind him slowly into the city. Maybe he didn't expect that he would take down Nanzheng, the central headquarters of Hanzhong County, so easily.

If Su Gu stayed in the city, Lu Bu would have to spend a lot of effort if he wanted to enter Zhananzheng. Fortunately, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Lu restrained Su Gu in Hanshui.

Liu Yan's move can be regarded as indirectly helping himself a lot.

In the county town, Lu Bu led his army into the city, which attracted the attention of the people in the city.

The people on the road all tended to avoid on both sides, and they took the initiative to make way for this army, and there were not a few people who came to watch.

"Did Su Junshou come back from victory?"

"It doesn't seem to be, our county seems to have never seen this team."

"Could it be that Bashu's army broke into the city?"

"........."

"Die'er, look at the general on the red horse, how mighty he is!"

"Miss, don't you have a crush on her?"

"You little rascal, what are you talking so shamelessly!" The beautiful young girl in the crowd blushed and spat on the maid.

"Ah, Miss, are you blushing? I'll go back and tell the Patriarch that you have fallen in love with this general!"

"Let you talk nonsense, let me teach you a lesson!" As she spoke, the girl scratched the maidservant's itch.

The maid named 'Die'er' couldn't bear the itch, and begged for mercy while laughing: "Miss, please forgive me, please forgive me, Die'er knows I was wrong."

Lu Bu didn't notice the fight between master and servant, and Chen Gong who was beside him stroked his short beard, glanced at the people in the city, and said, "General, there are constant wars in the Central Plains. It has been affected too much, but it is still the same as before, calm and peaceful."

Lu Bu, who was riding on the back of the red dodder, nodded. The stability of Hanzhong mainly depends on his unique geographical location.Whether it is from the South Daba Mountain or the Qinling Mountains from the north, it is not easy to enter Hanzhong.As long as there is no civil strife, there will basically be no flames of war here.

Lu Bu ordered Pan Feng, Hou Cheng, Song Xian, and Chen Wei to lead 500 men each to guard the city walls in the east, west, north, and south. unarm them.

Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!

Lu Bu then went to the prefect's mansion, and the governor of the prefecture came out to greet him with a bow: "I'm sorry, Shi Xueqi, the prefect of Hanzhong County, and pay homage to Marquis Wen."

Xue Qi is over forty years old this year, wearing a silk official historian's uniform, with a somewhat capable face on his kinder face.

Lu Bu followed him into the county mansion, and after sitting down, the usually vigorous and vigorous Chang Shi was cautious, and he didn't dare to sit down without Lu Bu's consent, and stood obediently at the bottom of the hall, waiting for questions.

The soldiers sent by Cheng Hu to ask for help had just arrived a little while later, when another soldier reported that Lu Bu had led the army into the city.

Hearing this, Xue Qi couldn't help but sighed before he had time to mobilize his troops: "What a quick move, worthy of Marquis Wen, who is famous for his bravery all over the world."

Afterwards, he asked the soldiers to retreat, led the officers and men in the mansion, and took the initiative to go out of the mansion to greet them.

"The general came here from a long distance, do you know why?" Lu Bu, who was sitting in the middle county guard, looked at Xue Qi and asked.

Xue Qi thought for a while, guessed a general idea in his heart, but pretended he didn't know anything on the face, he cupped his hands and replied: "I don't know, please Wen Hou show me."

"A few days ago, the imperial court summoned Su Gu to the pilgrimage, and he said he was sick. Do you know?"

Xue Qi said "Sure enough" in his heart. He also learned about this matter by accident, and Su Gu didn't discuss it with him at that time.

Now if you want to protect the Xue family, you have to separate from the Su family.

"I don't know." Xue Qi answered decisively.

"Then Lao Changshi will investigate on behalf of General Ben. Anyone who conspired with Su Gu will be arrested and questioned."

Lu Bu stared at Xue Qi for a while, seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, so he handed over the matter to him.Then, he added: "Also, arrange a resting place for this general, I'm tired."
