Abnormal Three Kingdoms

Chapter 299
"It's done!"

The moment Dong Cheng's head fell to the ground, Chu Nan, who had been monitoring the situation through the vision of the demon ants, opened his eyes, withdrew his divine thoughts, got up and left the camp with a little excitement, and strode into Lu Bu's tent. Lu Bu, who was holding a roll of bamboo slips in a daze, saluted and said, "Father-in-law, the opportunity to send troops has come."

Dong Cheng's death itself is actually not important. Although he is a chariot general, he is a model of that kind of high position and low power, and his own influence is limited.

The wonderful thing is that the situation in Xuchang is relatively delicate at this time. After Cao Cao's death, the imperial party, which had been suppressed by him before, began to emerge in the court. In addition, other factions will also separate from Cao Cao's forces. For example, those who have done bad things and are afraid of being liquidated, or those who surrendered from Guanzhong, such as Duan Yan and Wang Zhong, generals in Guanzhong, etc.

If Cao Cao was around, these forces would be basically monolithic except for the royal party, and they would live in peace, even if there were internal conflicts, they would never erupt. However, the problem is that Cao Cao is dead!The people who restrained them are gone, and some problems that did not seem to be problems have become big problems.

Without Cao Cao's suppression, these factions gradually began to split in the past two days. Not everyone in the army wanted to continue working with the Cao family. Among the Cao clan that came down, Cao Peng is considered the top one.

Since the Cao family doesn't care about this place anymore, how many people are willing to work for the Cao family?
Dong Cheng itself is not important, but being killed by Cao Peng at this time becomes very important. It can be regarded as a point to detonate the forces of all parties. At least the imperial party will not let it go, and other parties will take the opportunity to follow suit. It became a matter of course for Cao Cao's department to split up.

If there is a person with enough prestige to stand up at this time and persuade everyone, maybe there is still a rescue. There is indeed such a person in Xuchang City, that is, Xun Yu. With time, it is indeed possible to settle these problems one by one, but right now, Chu Nan will not give Xun Yu this chance.

At the beginning, Lv Bu attacked Juancheng hard, but now that Chu Nan has made so many preparations, if Xuchang cannot be captured, his father-in-law can go grab the land with his head!

"Oh?" Lu Bu got up upon hearing this, looked at Chu Nan and said, "Zi Yan sure?"

"It's absolutely true!" Chu Nan nodded: "Dong Cheng is dead, no accidents, this person's death will cause the division of various factions in Xuchang, Xuchang will also enter the weakest time, it is the opportunity for our army to enter the city, the monster The ants will tell our army to hide in the city to act cheaply, and cooperate with our army to attack the city, and my father-in-law only needs to storm the south gate!"

"it is good!"

Without any hesitation, Lu Bu immediately ordered people to sound the trumpet and send out troops. At the same time, he sent people to inform Zhang Xiu who was stationed in the west of the city and Huang Zhong who was stationed in the north of the city to carry out an auxiliary attack on Xuchang according to the plan or to attract the enemy's troops, so that the enemy troops could not concentrate on defending the south. Door.

Naturally, the movement here cannot be hidden from Xu Changcheng, but at this time Xu Changcheng is just as Chu Nan thought, Dong Chengzhi's death is like a fuse, detonating a series of reactions.

In the Wengcheng, Dong Cheng's head had fallen to the ground, and Cao Peng laughed heartily.

"What are you doing!?" Xun Yu's voice from behind interrupted Cao Peng's laughter, and when he saw this scene, a trace of sweat fell on his forehead.

"Lingjun, please take a good look at what he has done!" Cao Peng was not afraid of Xun Yu at the moment, and reached out his hand to summon the blood-stained edict and threw it to Xun Yu: "If this person is not killed, what is the law of heaven?" !?"

Xun Yu glanced at it casually. In fact, the content of the edict is not important, as long as these people understand something... Need and wry smile shook his head and sighed: "Even if he deserves to be killed, he shouldn't die at this time!"

The various forces in the city maintain a delicate balance. Xun Yu has been stabilizing this balance for the past two days. As long as this balance is completely stabilized and everyone's strength can be used together, Xun Yu is confident that he can stop Lu Bu again, so he decided to He turned a blind eye to Dong Chengcai, compared to Xu Chang's stability, Dong Cheng jumped up and down like a monkey, in fact he was helping Xun Yu to delay time.

The question now is not whether Dong Cheng should die, it is the same as there is no right or wrong in the world of adults, the question now is whether Dong Cheng should die now, let alone die in public like this, Xun Yu worked hard to stabilize The situation, with Dong Chengyi's death, is likely to be completely broken.

"woooo~"

The melodious sound of horns outside the city was accompanied by the faint sound of war drums. This was the signal for Lu Bu's army to attack the city. If it came at this time, it was just a coincidence. You wouldn't believe it if you killed Xun Yu, but how did the other party come so quickly? Just noticed Dong Chengzhi's death?
Xun Yu suspected that someone on the top of the city tower had informed Lv Bu secretly, but it was a pity that he could not tell at this time even if he knew it, otherwise it would be more likely to cause confusion.

"Hey, before I come back, I must defend the city!" Thousands of words turned into a sigh of Xun Yu, this is the last situation he wants to see, but unfortunately the matter is irreversible, so he can only find a way to settle it, and stared at him immediately After the two glanced at each other, they turned around and hurried out of the Wengcheng towards the imperial palace.

make a mistake?
Cao Peng and Xu Ding looked at each other, they didn't think they were wrong, but just after Dong Cheng died, Lu Bu launched a siege as agreed, isn't this too coincidental?
Don't need to negotiate?
The two looked at Dong Cheng's body on the ground, and felt something was wrong. If all of this was calculated by someone... A chill on the back made the two of them shiver uncontrollably. It's not because their IQs should considerations.

"In short, according to what Lingjun said, guard the city!" The thing has already happened, and even if it is wrong, it cannot be undone. Xu Ding looked at Cao Peng and left a sentence: "I will go back to the east gate. Beacon fire is the number!" Then he hurriedly led the troops back to Dongcheng, although there was no enemy army in Dongcheng, it was impossible for them to be unguarded, but it was easier than the other three sects.

Cao Peng didn't talk nonsense, he quickly returned to the city tower, and prepared to defend the city with Wang Zhong. This side is facing Lu Bu's main force, and the pressure must be the greatest. As long as we defend, we will be fine, right?But why haven't those Confucian scholars come yet?

On the other side, Xun Yu came out of Wengcheng and was about to go to the palace to meet Liu Xie when he saw the officials headed by Kong Rong walking towards him. Their expressions were a little unkind, and his heart sank. Going forward to meet him, he frowned and said, "Mr. Wen Ju, why are you here?"

"Hearing the sound of war drums, he came here, so why would Lu Bu send troops at this time?" Kong Rong frowned.

Why not?

This idea just flashed in his mind and then disappeared. Xun Yu sighed in his heart. Dong Cheng's plot may not be a secret. People like Kong Rong and Zhong Ji probably knew about Dong Cheng's plan a long time ago and even agreed to it. When troops are dispatched from time to time, these people feel a little strange.

Just about to say something, Zhong Ji squinted at the bloody edict in Xun Yu's hand, frowned and said, "Wen Ruo, why is this edict in your hands!?"

Xun Yu looked at the edict in his hand, shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Everyone, these are not important. The most important thing right now is to defend the city. If Lu Bu invades the city, what will be the face of the Han Dynasty? What will be the majesty of the emperor? "

"Then where is Dong Cheqi?" Kong Rong looked at the edict in Xun Yu's hand, frowned and asked in a deep voice.

This old man, why do you hold on to these little things at critical times?

Xun Yu felt irritated in his heart. Do you really think that after Lu Bu enters the city, your status will be higher than before?Just think about what Dong Zhuo looked like when he entered the court.

"I had some misunderstandings with the generals defending the city, and I suffered some minor injuries." Xun Yu took a deep breath and suppressed the irritability in his chest. At this time, he must remain calm and explain to everyone with a warm smile on his face. road.

Someone used a shovel to shake my neck, but there was no pain, so it shouldn't be too serious.

However, Xun Yu's explanation clearly did not satisfy Kong Rong and the others. They knew that Dong Cheng was leaving the city to deliver the edict to Lv Bu. According to the time, the edict should have not been sent out of the city yet. Why did Lu Bu call here first?This is obviously abnormal, and how could Dong Cheng disappear at this time?
"Dong Cheng is three feet in front of me!" Zhong Ji didn't talk nonsense, and directly used the method to follow his words, but before the words fell, there was no change in the surroundings, and his figure did not move.

"It's blocked by an army formation!" Zhong Ji looked at the Wengcheng in front of him, there were only two places in Xuchang that he couldn't go to, one was the imperial palace, I don't know if it was because the place where the Son of Heaven was, and the Dharma Suit lost its effectiveness there .

The other is that after the military formation is deployed, it is impossible to follow in from the outside within the range covered by the military formation. This is not only in the city, but it is the same anywhere as long as the military formation is deployed.

And recently, for some reason, the probability of failure of the speaking method has begun to increase. Sometimes even if it is not disturbed, this large-scale teleportation method will not be able to be used.

Kong Rong and the others each performed it once, but they all failed. Obviously, it was not because of their ability failure.

Dong Cheng has been out of the palace for a while, so it is naturally impossible to be in the palace at this moment, if he has not left the city, it seems that he can only be in the urn city surrounded by the army formation.

Zhong Ji immediately walked towards Wengcheng, but after walking less than ten steps, his eyes suddenly blurred, and he returned to the place where he left before, and Zhong Ji looked at Xun Yu with an ugly expression: "What does Wen Ruo mean?"

Looking at Xuchang, there are only a few people who have this ability, and it is obvious that only Xun Yu can do it right now.

"You are all ministers of the humerus of the imperial court. No matter how Dong Cheqi is, now that the enemy is at hand, shouldn't we protect Xuchang first?" Xun Yu looked at the crowd, his gaze swept over the faces of Kong Rong, Zhong Ji, Wang Zifu and others. However, he said in a deep voice: "You don't really think that after Lu Bu breaks the city, it will be good for you?"

"Wen Ruo said so, it seems that General Dong is not as simple as a small injury?" Wang Zifu frowned and looked at Xun Yu: "Is Wen Ruo's heart towards the Han Dynasty or Cao Cao!?"

With Xun Yu's heart, facing these people embarrassing him at this time, he also felt a little tight in his chest.
