Emperor Road of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 117 Prelude to Killing Xu Du

In the side room, the oil lamp was dimly lit.

Xu Chu and Zhou Cang were silent, each flicking their waist sabers, seemingly calm.But in fact, their eyes were cold, and the veins in the hand holding the knife were looming.Suddenly, their eyes turned, and they looked at the closed door like eagles, and then immediately changed from cold to hot.

"Bo Gu, what shall we do tomorrow?" Zhou Cang asked in a deep voice with a clang of his waist knife returning to its sheath.Xu Chu didn't speak, but still stared at Xia Houlan closely.

Xia Houlan strolled up to the two of them, put the waist knife on the table, moved her hands and feet, and then replied in a deep voice: "Yuanfu, Zhongkang, Mr. Jia has already planned before coming. With Zhongkang, we have to re-plan."

"Well, tell me, let's listen." Zhou Cang said in a deep voice, and fell into silence again.But Xu Chu still didn't speak, and looked at Xia Houlan with piercing eyes.

Xia Houlan didn't care either. After thinking for a moment, she was ready to speak.But at this moment, there was a knock on the door.The eyes of the three were fixed, and finally Xia Houlan turned her head and stared at the door, and said in a deep voice, "Who?"

"It's me, Du Ji." Amidst the howling wind outside the door, there was a refined echo.

After hearing the words, Xia Houlan, Xu Chu and Zhou Cang each looked at each other, then strode to the door and opened it.But Xia Houlan didn't let Du Ji in, but blocked the door and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Du, it's so late, what else can you do?"

"Hehe, are you guys discussing the matter of saving the son tomorrow?" Du Ji smiled slightly and said directly, "I can make a plan or two, so as to prevent any mistakes."

The three of them stared at Du Ji like an eagle or a tiger.If ordinary people were looked at by the three of them in this way, they would probably turn pale if they were not scared to death.

When Du Ji was not frightened, he looked at the three of them calmly.In fact, after Du Ji returned to his room, he gradually calmed down and smiled wryly at his previous performance.He didn't mean to find fault, it's just that many of his previous plans had turned into bubbles, and he couldn't help but feel distressed and become impetuous.Coupled with everyone's disappointment in him and their expectations for Xia Houlan, he couldn't help feeling a little bored.

But he was originally a calm person, so he gradually calmed down after returning to his room.He knows that following Liu Yu is not necessarily better than following Cao Cao, but since he has come this far, he does not regret it.Moreover, Liu Yu's deafening bold words still echoed in his ears from time to time.Therefore, he decided to follow Liu Yu, and therefore came to plan for Xia Houlan and the others.

Xia Houlan waited for the three of them to watch for a while, and seeing Du Ji's calm face, they secretly made eye contact and let him in.

"Mr. Du, what do you think?" Xia Houlan asked directly when the four sat opposite each other.

Du Ji didn't answer him, but instead asked: "Begu, how many soldiers and horses have you brought? Also, how are you going to enter the city? How about this, tell me your previous plan first."

"I brought five hundred personal guards with me, and I entered the city through secret passages." Xia Houlan was silent for a moment, and finally said, "Our plan is this, first stir up a riot among the refugees, and then take advantage of the chaos to set fires everywhere. Chaos broke out in Xudu, so we sent someone to assassinate Cao Cao in order to contain Xudu's troops."

"500 troops is a bit small!" Du Ji pondered for a long time after hearing this, and then said slowly, "Although Cao Ren has already led the army to Runan, Xu Du didn't say that there were still tens of thousands of soldiers and horses. Moreover, these soldiers and horses Almost all of them are the elite among the elite, among them is the cavalry that Cao Gongshang is rumored to be building, and that cavalry is said to be able to block ten with one, it is simply an unstoppable flying army."

"Haha, Mr. Du, you have never seen your son's military training method, nor have you seen Uncle Zhi's military training ability, so you admire Cao Cao's men so much." What are you talking about cavalry, don't say anything about one against ten. Mr. Du, let me tell you, the guards under the son's command are all fierce soldiers with one against a hundred. With the five hundred guards in my hand alone, I can slaughter five thousand Cao's troops If you don't believe me... Yuan Fu, call the two hundred guards you lead over here."

Before Zhou Cang could speak, Du Ji's face was still gloomy, but Xu Chu interjected ahead of time and said, "No, we will be the ones who will lead the charge. It doesn't matter if Mr. Du doesn't believe it."

Du Ji smiled wryly, thinking that if he didn't show some skills, he would be looked down upon by these three warriors.

"Okay, I'll take a look at the building tomorrow night to see how good the young master's personal guards are."

Du Ji flicked his sleeves and interrupted the topic.Then, he put away his wry smile, and said calmly: "There are seven hundred guards in total... Bogu, encourage the refugees to join Huoming Xudu, so that everything will be more chaotic. In addition, those refugees should also report to the princes and ministers." This will also save manpower."

"In this case, I suggest that Yuan Fu lead a hundred guards to encourage the refugees. Yuan Fu, remember that as long as you start to attack, you can withdraw when the refugees riot." Du Ji was silent for a while, and thought for a moment. Only then did he speak.

After arranging Zhoucang, Du Ji thought for a while, and said again: "Zhongkang, you are so skilled in martial arts, you can lead three hundred guards to assassinate ministers. Among them, one hundred guards assassinate all ministers; one hundred guards assassinate Cao Cao; There are another one hundred that you will personally lead—to set fire to the Xuchang Palace."

"Bogu, you will lead the other three hundred guards. Remember, you are here to save people, not to kill people, so don't be too eager to fight. In addition, you can release all the prisoners so that they can escape in disorder." Du Ji It seemed that he had already thought it over, and said directly to Xia Houlan without stopping.

After finishing speaking, Du Ji stopped talking, but took a sip of water, which was more than half a glass.

Xia Houlan, Xu Chu, and Zhou Cang were all lost in thought when they heard what Du Ji said, but after a while they looked up at each other with a hideous expression.

"Okay, Xu Du will be bleeding into rivers tomorrow!" Xia Houlan said with a ferocious face, punching the table.

Zhou Cang also had a grim face, and said sharply, "That's right, we even broke through the sea of ​​fire in Sunset Valley, and even defeated [-] yellow scarves, so why are we still afraid of Xudu?"

The tone of the two was harsh and murderous.Although Xu Chu didn't speak, his gradually rising aura made people feel his murderous aura.

"One more thing, if we escape from Xudu, how will we go back to Shangcai?" Just when the three of them were murderous, Du Ji suddenly said again.

And what he said made the three of them look at each other again, and then looked at him as if asking questions.

Du Ji smiled wryly, seeing their eyes, he knew the question was for nothing.Therefore, he fell into deep thought again, until he slowly raised his head after a long time.

"Let's leave Xudu, let's go to Xutian, and then go straight to Shangcai." Du Ji's face was serious, obviously he didn't know how to go, "Forget it, let's talk about it after we rescue the young master!"

Although Du Ji is capable of both civil and military skills, his martial arts skills are average, and his strategy is also a lot worse after all, so he can only be the prefect of one party.

The three warriors didn't think too much, just dealt with it casually, and then focused on tomorrow's affairs.

After chatting for a while, the four of them went back to their rooms, wondering if they could fall asleep peacefully.But it should be possible, after all, they are not ordinary people.

There was no words all night, and the oil lamps flickered.Soon, the sky was slightly bright, and it was already dawn.

Wan Mansion was already brightly lit, everyone got up early, and now they are all ready to go.

"Yuanfu and Zhongkang don't go out of the city, your goals are too big." Du Ji was dressed in white today, looked at the busy crowd quietly, and then said suddenly.

Hearing this, Zhou Cang and Xu Chu looked at each other, then nodded to show they knew.

Seeing the two nodding their heads, Du Ji said again: "Bogu, follow them out of the city to prevent anything from happening. In addition, you only entered the city through the secret road at dusk, so don't expose yourself in the slightest."

"Well, Mr. Du, don't worry, I know." Xia Houlan nodded solemnly and replied.

The conversation ended and the scene fell into silence.After a while, everyone came together and dealt with trivial matters before Xia Houlan looked around and said in a deep voice, "Let's go, be careful, don't show your feet."

After finishing speaking, he took the lead out of Wan Mansion with a big burden on his shoulders.And Zhang Rong behind him, and several girls looked at each other, and followed out with big bags.

Xu Du, the snow has stopped!

　Good morning, I have something to do today, so I sent it in advance.
