Chapter 22 Rebellion

Before Lu Bu attacked Xiaopei, he promised to use Liu Bei's wealth, food and grass to work hard, so the soldiers all bravely took the lead.

After breaking Xiaopei, there was not much grain and rice in the treasury, let alone any wealth.

Liu Bei recruited troops during this period, so how much military resources would be left for Lu Bu?

Lu Bu had promised his soldiers before the war. If he did not fulfill his promise, his prestige in the army would be reduced.

Lu Bu despised Cao Cao's massacre, but at this time, there was no way to plunder some property.

He instructed Cheng Lian, and Zhang Liao said: "You should restrain your subordinates and borrow some food, rice and property from the people. Don't hurt their lives easily. Go to the village outside the city as much as possible..."

"No." Zhang Liao (Cheng Lian) said in unison.

Chen Gui once served as the prime minister of Xiaopei, and there were many Chen family industries here. Lu Bu still had to make friends with the Chen family at this time, so he could not do too much.

Tens of thousands of people plundered in the surrounding villages. Most of the people watched their property be robbed in order to survive, and a few lost their lives because of food protection.

Half a day after the looting, Lu Bu left behind five thousand soldiers to order Zhang Liao to guard Xiaopei, and led his army back to Xiapi.

Because Liu Bei's family had Mi family members, Lu Bu was not hurt by taking advantage of the situation, so Zhang Liao was well taken care of in Xiaopei.

Gan Qian avoided the disaster in Ganjiazhuang and just escaped this disaster.

After hiding in the shelter for a day, Lantian brought Gan Qian and his daughter up. At this time, Ganjiazhuang felt solemn and bleak, and many crops in the fields were trampled on by people.

Zhang Liao sent the original officials to various places to rest in peace, and hundreds of people from Ganjiazhuang spontaneously gathered at Ganji's home. Only then did they know the wonderful use of digging the cellar in Lantian before.

Although there were not many casualties this time, most of the property of the merchants was robbed, and most of the food saved in the past two years was moved away, so everyone burst into tears.

"No matter how difficult life is, as long as people are still alive, they must live hard. Everyone should go to the fields to cook crops as soon as possible, otherwise they will definitely go hungry in winter." Lan Tian encouraged.

"Young owner, can we all refer to the method of your shelter?" asked Li Yang, a farmer.

"It can be built but it is not easy to find large, so you have to pay more attention to the location." Lantian said.

Li Yang bowed and said, "Then please give me some advice from the young owner."

"Please give me some advice..." Everyone said in unison.

"Okay... Everyone should take care of the crops first, let's do the rest slowly, and there should be no trouble in the short term." Lantian inspires everyone to say.

Lantian's words were like fairy sounds. After hearing this, the villagers were sad and relieved, and then returned home one after another.

"I don't know how Xuande is..." Gan Qian said worriedly after the Zhuangke left.

Seeing that Gan Qian was in a low mood, Lan Tian comforted him and said, "Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are all brave enough to be inappropriate. It would be fine if they were with them. I expected that he would return to Xiaopei again."

"Take it seriously?" Gan Qian said happily.

"When did I lied to you? Sister, please keep your heart in your stomach." Lan Tian smiled.

Liu Bei would have to be defeated at this time and he would have to join Cao Cao. If he hadn't listened to Cao's words to attack Yuan Shu, Xuzhou would not have been easily gained by Lu Bu, and there would have been no defeat today. Boss Cao would have helped him wipe his butt.

Now Gongsun Zan in the north retreated to Yi County after the Battle of Baoqiu. Yuan Shao had basically unified the north of the Yellow River. In addition, his eldest son Yuan Tan also broke through Qingzhou occupied by Tian Kai, and Yuan Shao's actual control had reached south of the Yellow River.

Although Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are still allies, this fragile relationship cannot be maintained forever. In the situation of such a severe form in the north, Cao Cao naturally did not want Lu Bu to be a threat in the east. Even if he knew that Liu Bei had considerable ambitions, he would drive the tiger and swallow the wolf to pinch Lu Bu.

After all, compared to Lu Bu, Liu Bei is more trustworthy than Cao Cao.

On the other hand, Ji Ling returned to Shouchun since Xiaopei, and Yuan Shu was furious after reading Lu Bu's speeches and letters.

The last time Han Yin sent a lot of food and supplies to Xuzhou, Lu Bu actually secretly forced Ji Ling to withdraw his troops. Although the Three Books and Six Pin was still preparing according to the process, Yuan Shu had already hated Lu Bu at this time.

At this time, the adviser under the tent offered a suggestion that Hao Meng, a native of Hanoi, had an old age, could be allowed to rebel against Lu Bu with great profit, and then seize Xuzhou and presented it to Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu was overjoyed after hearing this. He had already intentionally seized it in Xuzhou, so he ordered the man to secretly go to Xiapi.

After returning from Xiaopei Sheng, Lu Bu was full of ambition. He had a banquet with the generals for many days until late at night.

One night, at the third day.

Lu Bu was sleeping soundly on the couch, and suddenly there was a noise in the mansion, and the breath of gold and iron intersecting was blowing from the wind.

The female guard in charge of the backyard came to Lu Lingqi's door and reported urgently that an assassin had invaded. Lu Lingqi quickly put on military uniform and went out. After inquiring, she learned that her father's general Hao Meng had rebelled and had already attacked the government office. More than half of the female guards she commanded had died or injured.

The situation was extremely critical, and Lu Lingqi kicked open Lu Bu's door.

"Ring-eyed thief, how dare you..." Lu Bu was fighting with Zhang Fei in his dream, but was awakened by the sound of Lu Lingqi kicking the door.

"Father, Hao Meng betrays me, please leave with my mother." Lu Lingqi pointed outside the door and shouted loudly.

"Hao Meng? Not Zhang..." Lu Bu looked closely and saw that it wasn't his room? The person next to him was dressing in a panic.

"Don't wear armor, it's too late." Seeing that Yan hadn't even put on it well, Lu Lingqi helped Lu Bu take it to wear it.

At this time, she didn't care about her clothes being covered. She pulled Yan's hand and went out. Lu Bu followed the mother and daughter in a mess. The drunkenness had long turned into cold sweat on her back.

"Miss, the front hall is already sunken, you can walk quickly through the back door." The female guard urged before.

Lu Lingqi took her parents to escape according to the guidance. When she came out of the back door, she heard a noise in the city. Lu Lingqi asked Lu Bu: "Father, the city in Xia Pi is now in chaos. I don't know how many rebels Hao Meng has been entangled with. Where should we go now?"

"You can go to Gaoshun's camp." Lu Bu said affirmatively.

Lu Lingqi nodded and thought to herself that it coincided with my thoughts. She thought that her father's wine had already sobered up.

Because Hao Meng's troops were limited, he could not control the four gates of Xia Pi in a short period of time, which made Lu Lingqi and the others hide in the city for an hour before fleeing.

The three of them came to the camp. Gao Shun saw Lu Bu in a mess and knew that something was wrong in the city.

"Hao Meng dares to betray me, and Hao Meng dares to betray me..."

While Lu Bu was chatting, Gao Shun invited Lu Bu to the main tent, then clasped his fists and said, "Lord, you can rest here first. I will bring my troops into the city immediately to quell the rebellion."

"Okay, Wen Yuan is currently in Xiaopei, and Xia Pi can only rely on you." Lu Bu said breathlessly.

"Don't worry, lord."

Gao Shun's military discipline was strict and he was the most elite infantry under Lu Bu's tent. Before sending troops to quell the rebellion, he asked his deputy general Xu Shuang to protect Lu Bu's safety.

Most of the generals under Gao Shun knew Lu Lingqi. While they were waiting for news from Gao Shun, Xu Shuang told Lu Lingqi in a low voice: "I heard that the lord attacked Xiaopei a few days ago, and after the war, he instigated the soldiers to loot in the village. Ganjiazhuang should also be among them..."

"What? How is Lan Ziyu?" Lu Lingqi said anxiously.

Xu Shuang shook his head and said, "I have heard rumors in other battalions these past two days. General Gao may know the specific situation clearly."

Lu Lingqi stomped her feet in anger, "Hmph, this guy Gao Shun is starting to hide it from me now."
