Three Kingdoms New Emperor

Chapter 613 The Lord of Lujiang City

On the dawn of the fifth day after Liu Xie conspired to play a rogue, the interweaving of night and day formed a quiet picture in a mansion in Lujiang.

Luo Lin leaned on the couch, no longer feeling sleepy.The jade-like maid beside her was also awakened. She hugged Luo Lin's strong chest with jade-like arms, leaned her face on his waist, and whispered, "Doctor Luo, are you awake?"

Luo Lin was silent in the dark blue night, without saying a word, as if he had merged with the night that was about to disappear.

The maid could see that Luo Lin was worried and didn't know how to comfort her, so she took the initiative to kiss Luo Lin's broad shoulders.She knew that this man was usually cold, but he was kind-hearted.And it was this kind of attraction, which was cold on the outside and hot on the inside, that made her regard Luo Lin as her lifelong support after only one night.

In any case, compared to those sisters with miserable fates, she was really lucky to be recruited by Luo Lin as a concubine.She didn't dare to extravagantly ask for Luo Lin's love, but she was unwilling to give up Luo Lin's sympathy for her.

Fiery lips kissed Luo Lin's shoulder, but it was like fire meeting ice.The maid was a little nervous, and her plain hand slid down through the brocade quilt.But no matter how tender and affectionate she was, Luo Lin didn't move at all—this was simply abnormal for a man with a vigorous blood.

"Go out, I'm not in the mood today." Luo Lin finally spoke, but what he said made the woman tremble.

The woman slid out of the room like a white fish, and the fear in her eyes could not fade away before she left.Luo Lin sighed, and still said: "Don't worry, it's just that the Cao army is attacking the city urgently these days, and there are many wounded, so I'm a little overwhelmed. All this has nothing to do with you, and I won't let General Liu Xun be replaced. you."

When the woman heard this, she felt a little warmth, and after giving Luo Lin a grateful gift, she retreated with a heavy heart.Seeing the woman's back completely disappear, Luo Lin closed his eyes, and took out two letters from the hidden compartment of his pillow.

Of the two letters, one has been opened, while the other is still sealed with wax.

In the opened letter, there was no cipher text of Jin Yiwei, just a paragraph of extremely simple words.What made Luo Lin frown, although it was that paragraph, but at the same time, the dark yellow spot on the signature made him even more worried.

If you hold this secret letter up to the sun, you can see that the dark yellow piece is actually a ring seal - this is the mark that will only appear after Luo Lin gently roasts it with pottery fire.

In the center of the ring, there is a graceful dragon-shaped pattern floating - this is the private seal of the emperor!

That is to say, this is an order written to Luo Lin by Liu Xie, the emperor of the Han Dynasty. The content of the letter is shockingly simple and exaggerated: Before Cao Cao breaks through the Lujiang River, I will get it down first!
Luo Lin vaguely remembered that when he first saw this letter, he was so angry that he almost tore up the secret letter and chewed it into his stomach: There are only a dozen Jinyiwei in the entire Lujiang River, and those who can really get in touch with Liu Xun are even more so. Only Luo Lin was alone.Cao Cao's tens of thousands of soldiers and horses have been attacking day and night for several days, unable to cross the city, but the emperor wants Jin Yiwei... No, strictly speaking, let Luo Lin handle this fortified city alone?
Luo Lin sighed heavily, and the heavy sense of powerlessness surged in his chest again: He knew that his emperor was very out of tune, but at this stage, the matter was no longer in the category of out of tune.

"Your Majesty, if you continue like this, even if this subordinate is only a weaker year, I'm afraid you won't be able to continue the incense." Thinking of the maid's tease just now, Luo Lin felt like crying: such a heavy pressure on his shoulders, really It can make a man feel weak...

And, what's more serious, Luo Lin found that he seemed to be a little addicted to this warm and fragrant soft jade.At first, he only wanted to save others, and after Duanmu Zhengshuo left, he asked Liu Xun for some women.Unexpectedly, that weak woman named 'Yu'er' seemed to really soften his heart.

He also thought that after the matter was accomplished, he would ask the emperor to reward the woman to himself.But he was different from Duanmu Zhengshuo. Duanmu Zhengshuo was able to hide in the enemy army unaffected and continue to be his Jinyiwei in the state of a group of wives and concubines.But Luo Lin thinks that once he has concerns, he wonders if he will...

Why!Things were so complicated that Luo Lin wanted to kill himself with a knife.

But at this moment, the door of the room was suddenly opened, and a messenger hurriedly said to Luo Lin: "Doctor Luo, General Liu Xun, please go to the city to rescue the wounded soldiers!"

Luo Lin hid the secret letter as early as when the order was sent to open the door, and asked, pretending to be dressed in a panic, "Cao Cao attacked the city again?"

"Yes, Cao Cao is crazy, it seems that this time is another tough battle!" The order came in a hurry, and left in a hurry, but before leaving, he still couldn't help cursing in a low voice: "Damn Cao Cao, You can’t let people live a comfortable day!”

These days, Cao Jun's attack on the city was very urgent, so Luo Lin didn't need anyone to guide the way to the tower.In fact, when he was busy until the third watch last night, he just returned to the mansion and squinted his eyes. Unexpectedly, just after an hour, Cao Jun attacked again with great fanfare.

Before reaching the top of the city tower, Luo Lin heard the deafening sound of fighting. Cao Jun's golden drum shattered this supposedly peaceful morning, and the flying arrows were like deadly ghosts. no reply.

When Luo Lin climbed the city wall, he carefully glanced up the tower.Surprisingly, today he saw Liu Xun standing on the top of the city.This discovery makes Luo Lin very strange: Although Liu Xun is a general, he is timid and greedy. When he heard that Cao Jun was attacking, his first thought was to abandon the city and leave.If Master Bo hadn't stopped him, I'm afraid Cao Cao would have become the master of Lujiang long ago.

Liu Xun's appearance here today really made Luo Lin feel unbelievable.In the defensive battle of the Han army, it is normal for the general to make a decision.But Liu Xun showed his face today, which is even rarer than the sun rising from the west.

'Perhaps, it's the master Bo's credit again? After Luo Lin shook his head, he saw the master Bo.The man was also wearing armor, standing beside Liu Xun, as if he wanted Liu Xun to send his strict personal guards to guard the city, but Liu Xun seemed to be angrily shouting him back.

"Poor our Lord Liu, who defended the city for three days and was insulted by that bastard Liu Xun. If I were me, I might have killed Liu Xun with a knife!" A wounded soldier listened to the loud drums and said angrily. These days, Luo Lin has long been mixed with these soldiers, and the wounded soldier is full of anger, and he is not afraid of Luo Lin's complaint.

"Being a chariot and cavalry general, when the enemy attacked the city, he hid in the inner city for three days and dared not show his face. He also took all his personal guards and prepared to flee for his life. This dog Liu Xun is not as good as Mr. Liu's thin finger head!"

"Be content, the brothers standing around Liu Xun are unlucky. Wearing such conspicuous armor, they said it was to boost morale, but in the end it caused Cao Jun to scream. He was hiding in layers of protection, killing all of our brothers." What a tragic death!" The speaker couldn't help but sigh, he was also a veteran of the battlefield at his age, and he was obviously not optimistic about the fate of the soldiers under Liu Xun's command.

More and more people joined the discussion. Amidst the chatter, Luo Lin commanded his soldiers to rescue the wounded, while taking the time to look up at the top of the city.Naturally, he understood the situation better than these veterans, and he knew that it was a big failure for the leader Bo to pull Liu Xun out to boost morale.

But what can be done about it?This is the only way for the enemy to overwhelm the city.Presumably, at this time, the master must be full of desolation, right?

After finishing transporting the wounded soldiers from the city wall, Luo Lin rushed to the top of the city.And the reason why he is so bold is actually the credit of that boss.Before the Cao army attacked the city, the master had ingeniously asked the craftsmen in the city to transform the catapult, and then used manpower to place it behind the city wall.Although Cao Bing's offensive was urgent, but under the obstruction of those catapults, they could only act sternly and courageously.

Luo Lin really had to admit that this master Bo was far superior to Liu Xun.The Lujiang River is densely covered with water, there is a moat outside the city, and Cao Bing was forced to be three hundred paces away by catapults, which made Cao Jun's first few attacks on the city come back in disgrace. Get off the city wall.

Such a situation made the soldiers on the top of the city start to use catapults to smash down the arrow towers one by one.Even though Cao Cao used his troops like a god, facing such an impenetrable Lujiang River, he could only harass it on the periphery, and he didn't even touch the city gate.

That's why Luo Lin had the courage to go to the top of the wall.And when he was about to rescue the wounded, several guards were supporting the Lord Bo and rushed to Luo Lin: "Doctor Luo, please save Liu Lord Bo quickly!"

Luo Lin raised his head, and saw a worried and hard-pressed face. Afterwards, the master Bo said, "Doctor Luo, I'm sorry."

"It's a matter of duty, Lord Liu Ye." Luo Lin replied with a smile, and at the same time remembered the wax-sealed letter on his body, which the emperor wanted to hand over to this person...
