The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 836 Do You Still Remember It?
Walking into Pengcheng, far from the bustling scene as imagined, the pedestrians on the main road paved with bluestones are deserted.The autumn wind is rustling, blowing up a lot of dry thatch, and there is a sense of desolation and depression everywhere.

At that time, Cao Cao sent his troops eastward to attack Xuzhou in order to avenge his father.

Along the way, several cities were massacred, and all defenders in Xuzhou were killed after surrendering.In addition, 10,000+ unarmed civilians also failed to escape bad luck. They were killed by Cao Cao, and Surabaya did not flow.

This killing incident is no less tragic than Xiang Yu, Bai Qi and others' killing of the opponent's soldiers.Cao Cao not only killed the common people, but also their chickens and dogs.

At that time, there was almost no human habitation in Xuzhou, and no chickens crowed or dogs barked.

Naturally, the people of Xuzhou hated Cao Cao very much. When they first learned that he was stationed in Pengcheng, almost no one was willing to join him. It was desolate and desolate.

It wasn't until later that Cao Cao wrote a letter of guilt, repented to the people for his mistakes in the past years, repented at the beginning, and made many regulations to benefit the people, which gradually restored Pengcheng to a little vitality.

After inquiring about the location of the county government, Liu Bian brought Chenlong here.

At the gate of the county mansion, beside the stone lions at the bottom of the stairs, there are four Cao soldiers guarding the place.

Seeing that Liu Bian wanted to climb the ladder, the four immediately raised their weapons and stopped him, shouting: "Stop! Who are you? Don't even look at where this place is. You and other ordinary people can trespass without permission! If you don't want to die, get away from me!"

Hearing these words, the eyes of the man in white shirt standing behind Liu Bian were cold, and his figure was ghostly. He stepped forward with two strides, and before he could clearly see how he moved, one of them was hit in the abdomen by him, with pale yellow bitter gall He opened his mouth and spat out from his mouth, and then his whole body went limp like mud.

At the same time, the man quickly swayed sideways, punched the chin of the person next to him upwards, and drove his whole body into the air. After spinning 720 degrees in the air, he fell heavily to the ground. He passed out without even groaning. die past.

The rest of the two were so frightened that their legs went limp, and they were almost unable to hold the weapon in their hands. They were terrified in their hearts: This is a monster that came out of nowhere, and it is not a level of combat power at all!
"Chenlong."

Liu Bian saw that the man was still about to make a move, so he yelled lightly.

Hearing the words, the man in the moon white shirt spared the remaining two people, and retreated behind Liu Bian with an indifferent expression in his eyes, as if nothing had happened just now.

It was the first time he came to Pengcheng as a guest, Liu Bian didn't want to come here to provoke trouble, and he didn't want to slap Cao Cao in the face and make both sides unhappy.

"Go and tell Cao Mengde that an old friend is visiting."

Liu Bian said calmly, playing with the white jade ring on his thumb, the corner of his mouth seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

The remaining two soldiers lost their initial arrogance long ago, and they didn't dare to delay any longer. They ran and climbed along the stone ladder, and went straight to the mansion to report.

At this time, Cao Cao was holding his chin, studying the future development strategy in the lobby.

According to the latest news, Lu Bu personally led the army across the Zhuohe River, stationed in Puyang, and ordered Qu Yi to train recruits in Fanyang. Judging from the posture, it should be to attack Yuan Shao in Hebei.

According to this calculation, at least within a year and a half, Lu Bu should not take Xuzhou into consideration.

In this way, Cao Cao was given a chance to breathe, and he could also make good use of this time to recuperate and recharge his batteries.Lu Bu took Yanzhou from him, so Cao Cao naturally wanted to take it back with his own hands.

"My lord, there are two foreigners who claim to be your old friends and want to see you." The soldiers ran into the hall and reported eagerly.

"Have you ever reported your name?" Cao Cao looked away from the bamboo slips, but did not raise his head. He picked up a pen from the side and made a simple mark on the bamboo slips.

"No, but these two look young, and their clothes are ordinary. The younger one is in his early twenties, and the older one should be 27 or [-] years old. It is very powerful, and it hurt our two brothers in an instant." The soldier shook his head, very It is sincere to continue to report.

Could it be that the nephew of some family came from other places and came to join him?

Cao Cao thought for a while, waved his hands and ordered: "Let them come in and see me."

The soldier showed embarrassment on his face, he hesitated and said, "The man refused, saying that he must invite you in person."

"Would you like me to invite you?"

Cao Cao was slightly stunned. From this point of view, he should not be a nephew in the family.

According to the soldiers, one of them has good skills. Could it be that God took pity on Cao and sent me a general?

Cao Cao was overjoyed, and immediately stopped writing in his hands, stood up suddenly, and told the soldier: "Go, take me to see where the sacred place is."

Cao Cao strode out of the mansion, and Dian Wei, who was like an iron tower, followed behind Cao Cao.

"General Cao, I haven't seen you for many years, do you still remember?" Liu Bian also took the initiative to step up the stone ladder at this moment, bowing his hands to Cao Cao with a smile on his face.

"Your Excellency is..."

Cao Cao looked this person up and down, only to feel that his appearance looked familiar.Intuition also told Cao Cao that he should have seen this person before, but after searching in his mind, he couldn't remember where he thought about it.

The young man in the white shirt behind him followed closely, his eyes full of alertness, he should be a figure of the retinue.

"It's a coincidence that I have the same surname and clan as today's emperor. I remember that when I first met General Cao, you were one of the eight captains established by the late emperor—Captain Dianjun. It has been many years since then. ..."

Recalling the past, the young man said with emotion.

In an instant, an impossible answer flashed through Cao Cao's mind.

He stared at the slightly sly face in front of him, looking at it over and over again, lest he misread it.But the more I looked at it, the more similar it became to the person I thought of.

At the end, the expression on Cao Cao's face had changed from calm to shocked, and his small eyes were also widened. He was several times more surprised than when he learned that Cao Ren died in battle.

"You are!"

Cao Cao almost blurted out.

Fortunately, Liu Bian waved his hand in time, interrupted Cao Cao's surprised words, and said to him with a smile: "General Cao, there are many people outside, don't you want to invite me to sit in the mansion?"

When Cao Cao came back to his senses, he realized that he had lost his etiquette. He hurriedly bowed and bowed his body, stretched out his hand as a gesture of please, and used the honorific language between his words: "Please first."

"In this case, the only thing I can do is to be respectful than to obey." Liu Bian said with a smile, not politely, he raised his legs and stepped up the stone ladder.

Cao Cao accompanied him, and the two walked into the county mansion one after another.

Seeing the figure of the lord going away, the remaining two soldiers carried away the two people who passed out, and said in their mouths brokenly: "Brothers, it's not that we brothers don't want to vent your anger on you, our lord is in front of that kid. Don't dare to speak loudly, your beating seems to be in vain..."
