Lu Dynasty

Chapter 264
After listening to Yu Jin's plot, Cao planned to attack the West Village of Puyang City at night.Chen Gong also discovered that the West Village in Puyang was a weak point, so Chen Gong advised Lu Bu to strengthen the defense of the West Village.Lu Bu sent Zhang Liao and Gao Shun to fortify the West Village, but Gao Shun and Zhang Liao did not directly station in the West Village, but followed Chen Gong's order to lie in ambush outside the West Village.

In the middle of the night, Cao led his troops to Xizhai secretly. Seeing that there were not many troops in Xizhai, he led his troops and killed them.Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and the others were not in the West Village at all, but ambushed outside the West Village.In the middle of the night, when Xizhai shouted and killed, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun knew that Cao Ye was coming.After Cao defeated the few troops in Xizhai, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun led the attack.

As soon as Cao fought with Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, Lu Bu was called out by Chen Gong.Lu Bu saw that Cao Zhen was attacking again, so he mobilized troops and went out of the city to help Zhang Liao and the others.When Lu Bu came to Xizhai, it was already dawn. When Cao saw Lu Bu coming, he quickly abandoned Xizhai and wanted to escape.Now Cao has Lu Bu blocking the way in front, and Gao Shun is chasing after him.Seeing that Cao was in danger, Yu Jin and Li Dian stepped forward to fight Lu Bu.But how could Yu Jin and Li Dian be Lv Bu's opponents? Cao had no choice but to flee north.

Not long after Cao escaped, suddenly an army came out from behind the mountain, and Zhang Liao was the leader.Cao ordered Cao Hong to fight Zhang Liao, but he himself ran west.How could there be omissions in Chen Gong's arrangement?Before Cao ran far, he saw Cheng Lian and Cao Xing leading troops to stand in front of him.Seeing that there was no way to escape, Cao shouted loudly: "Who can save me!" Among the generals, a man flashed out. It turned out to be Xia Houyuan, who single-handedly blocked Cheng Lian and Cao Xing.

Cao was about to flee when he heard the sound of horseshoes in the distance.Cao looked back and saw Lu Bu galloping towards him on a red rabbit horse with Fang Tian's painted halberd in hand.Lu Bu saw Cao Da and shouted, "Cao Xiu go!" Cao's generals saw Lu Bu chasing him, and looked at each other, not knowing what to do.Cao Zheng was depressed, thinking that he was really doomed this time.In the distance, Xia Houdun led an army to rescue.Lu Bu and Cao fought until dusk, when suddenly it rained heavily, and they returned to their respective camps.

Lü Bu withdrew his troops and returned to the city. Seeing Zhang Liao and Chen Gong, he was very happy.Lu Bu said: "Brother always said that you need to use your brains more to be a general, but I still like to fight like this. I haven't had such a good time in a long time. It seems that I still need to fight more in the future!"

Chen Gong said with a smile: "General Lu Feng's words are the golden rule, the general should listen more! To be a general, you need to use more resourcefulness to be invincible!"

Lu Bu said: "Of course I know what my elder brother said is right, but I'm still too lazy to use my brain, otherwise what would I have to do with you advisers! Gongtai, as long as elder brother is away from now on, I will leave it to you to use my brain." !"

From Chen Gong's birth to the present, except for his parents, no one trusts him like Lu Bu.When Lu Bu said this, he regarded Chen Gong as his confidant, and Chen Gong was moved and said: "How dare Gong not do his best for the Lord!"

Lu Bu didn't know what Chen Gong said, but Gao Shun and Zhang Liao understood that this was Chen Gong's pledge of allegiance to Lu Bu.Lu Bu looked at Gao Shun and Zhang Liao who were happy, and Chen Gong who was moved and messed up, feeling a little puzzled in his heart.

"My lord!" Chen Gong said, "I have a plan to defeat Cao!"

"Don't hesitate to speak out!" Lu Bu said, "Brother once said that a counselor is one's own mouth and eyes. Whether what he says is right or wrong must be judged by the Lord's heart. When the counselor speaks, it is as if he is covering his own mouth!"

Chen Gong said: "General Lu Feng always speaks outrageously. I really want to meet him. But now we have to think about how to repel Cao. I remember that there was a rich family named Tian in Puyang City, with thousands of children. One of the largest households in the county. We asked him to write a letter to Cao saying: "Marquis Wen is cruel and heartless, and the people feel great resentment. Now Marquis Wen wants to move troops to Liyang, and only Gao Shun is in Puyang City. Duke Cao can march overnight, and I am in the city." Respond internally!' If Cao comes, we will set fire to the four gates of Puyang City, and lay an ambush outside the city, so Cao Cao will have difficulty escaping even if he is talented!"

Lu Bu was overjoyed and said, "I can't see any flaws in this plan, so I'll just follow what Gongtai said. If Cao can be captured and killed, it's all thanks to the palace's plan! You know, elder brother is also very afraid of Cao. It means that he is a rare hero in the world!" Of course, Chen Gong knew what kind of person Cao was, so he felt deeply about this sentence.

Cao Zheng was depressed that Puyang City was difficult to break through. At this time, he received a secret letter from the Tian family.After reading the secret letter, Cao laughed and said to the generals: "It's God's will, God gave me Puyang!" After finishing speaking, Cao rewarded the person who sent the letter heavily, and ordered to send troops to Puyang.

Cheng Yu took the letter in Cao's hand, read it carefully and said, "My lord! Although Lu Bu has no plans, Chen Gong is very wise. Lu Bu can't see through such strategies, how can Chen Gong not see them? If there are What should I do? Why not divide the troops into three teams, the lord, two teams to ambush and respond outside the city, and one team to enter the city, so it may be just in case!" Cao listened to Cheng Yu's words, divided the troops into three teams, and led With a team, they came to the city of Puyang.

Cao raised his head and looked at the city. On the top of the city where the banners were planted, it was as written in the secret letter, and there was a white flag with the word "righteousness" written on it.Cao was secretly proud. At this time, the gate of Puyang city was opened, and Gao Shun and Cheng Lian led the troops to fight.Cao sent Xia Houdun to take Cheng Lian directly.Cheng Lian was defeated, so he ran back, Xia Houdun chased to the suspension bridge, Gao Shun was not his opponent, so Lu Bujun retreated to the city.Several soldiers took advantage of the chaos to sneak into Cao's army. When Cao retreated, he met Cao and said that he was Tian's secret envoy and handed over a secret letter.

Cao opened the secret letter and saw that it was the Tian family who had agreed with him when to take him into the city.After Cao smiled and rewarded several so-called secret envoys, the whole army went to Puyang.Cao Lingyu Jin led the troops on the left, Cao Hong led the troops on the right, and he led Xiahou brothers, Li Dian, and Le Jin into the city.

Li Dian saw that Cao was going to take the risk himself, so he persuaded him: "My lord, this Tian family doesn't know whether it is reliable or not, why don't we go in first, if there is no danger, how about coming again, my lord?"

Cao looked at Li Dian and knew that he was concerned about him, but in this case, if Cao didn't go in person, it would affect morale very much.Cao said angrily, "I don't even dare to go, who would dare to go?" Seeing Cao's insistence, Li Dian couldn't say much, so he had to pray that the Tian family really offered the city, not a false surrender.
