Chapter 192
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night. It is a huge matter for the lord to be assassinated. No one dares to be lazy. Thousands of constables and thousands of soldiers started, and the power was amazing. In the city and outside the city, people were searching for outsiders from the direction of Eastern Wu. The population flows slowly these days. More than 70 people were found, all of whom were caravans. After the conversation, they did not find anything.
It was quiet in the middle of the night. On the official road leading to Teng Kingdom in Xuzhou City, three men in black were walking quickly. Suddenly, a glass lamp lit up in front of him. Lu Bu led more than 30 cavalrymen to block the way.
The man in black in the head was shocked: "It's Lu Bu, why are you here?"
Lu Bu smiled and said, "I will shake the tiger. With such a large-scale search in Xuzhou City, you want to avoid the impossible. After all, people have to eat and stay in hotels. According to common sense, you should go south, but you are not ordinary people at all, so I guess you go north."
Before Lu Bu could tell the word "Lu Bu" was released, and his cavalry suddenly opened up a large net, similar to a net that caught stray dogs, but it was much larger.
The soldiers under his command rushed forward and took the three of them with a fork without a blade.
Xu Shitou went up and saw three fists. This was not the farmer's three fists, it was the fist that dislocated his chin.
In order not to let the three of them bite the poison in their mouths and commit suicide, they found a pill from them, but they didn't know what poison it was, so sexually.
The three of them took them back to the yamen overnight. The governor's mansion asked the masters and left them to them.
Lu Bu and Chen Gong were drinking tea in the next room, but after a while, they got it.
They are an organization specializing in dirty work, called Tiexue, with a foundation in Jianye City. This time they took on this task, one was Yu Ji, the other was Lu Bu. Yu Ji was 1,000 yuan and Lu Bu was 1,000 yuan. As for who the boss was hired, they didn't know.
Lu Bu waved his hand: "Pull it outside and cut it."
Chen Gong said: "Who is the messenger behind the scenes has not been found yet, don't be so anxious."
"We are warlords, not detectives. Whether it is Cao Cao or Sun Ce, they have to deal with each other. It's just a matter of time. So there is no need to solve the case but not solve it. Such people are very capable and are not safe to be detained in a cell. They are the safest to cut."
When Lu Bu waved his hand, the soldiers took him to the cross at the yamen gate. He didn't have to wait for noon and cut him directly.
In the afternoon, the stupid man who assassinated Yu Ji was captured alive. He had the strength to come, but he was fooled and sent to the prison. He was sent back to the quarry to take advantage of his remaining energy.
It was already early in the morning when Lu Bu returned to the camp, and he tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't sleep.
Suddenly I remembered that a few years later, on the eve of the Battle of Guandu, Sun Ce was assassinated and died.
There is no need to mention Sun Ce’s martial arts in detail. There is no problem with first-class generals. The arrangements and timing of this assassin are very appropriate.
At that time, Cao Cao was preparing to fight Yuan Shao, and Sun Ce wanted the light cavalry to raid Xu Du, but Sun Ce was assassinated. This stall was a coincidence.
Among them, Cao Cao is the most suspicious. It’s just that Sun Ce is in Jiangdong, how could Cao Cao have such power?
When he got up early to train, Lu Bu called Lu Tong over and whispered a few words, Lu Tong was busy.
After breakfast, Lu Bu summoned the Xuzhou Iron Cavalry at the school ground. In addition, Zang Ba's 500 cavalry and 150 cavalry from Cao Xing's army arrived, and more than 2,000 cavalry were there.
Lu Bu announced angrily: "Japan will be assassinated yesterday and is almost seriously injured. According to the interrogation, the assassin sent by Cao Zhe, what is the style of this general? If you have a grudge, you will not be able to stop at night. Today, we will gather light cavalry to fight for Xudu and kill Cao Zhe's head to come back."
When the generals heard this, they said, "Good guy, this is too fierce." There is no problem with more than two thousand light cavalrymen killing Xu, but I guess they won't be able to enter the city."
But Zang Ba and Hao Meng were angry and couldn't persuade him. Even though they knew that this was wrong, they had to follow him.
The light cavalry began to prepare, packed up the jerky horse meat, old pickles, kettles, tableware, sorted out their own weapons, and took bundles of feather arrows from the logistics department.
Zang Ba came over and reminded: "Lord, we can't take advantage of this rashly."
Lu Bu called Zang Ba, Sun Guan, and Cao Xing over and said the plan in a low voice, and the three of them nodded repeatedly.
Zang Ba, Sun Guan, and Cao Xing took people out first and set up defenses along the west of the city. Any pigeon that flew through the sky would shoot down.
These days, there are very few pigeons raised, and there are no more than 30 pigeons in the city and nearby villages. For example, Gao Shun also has pigeons, but they are egg pigeons, so they are not let go.
Hundreds of cavalry shot dozens of pigeons in a big sky, but nothing was discovered.
Zang Ba said: "Maybe the lord's judgment is wrong, it's almost dark, let's go."
As he was talking, Cao Xing saw a pigeon flying over, and with a puff arrow, he hit the pigeon.
There was something tied to the pigeon's legs, which actually said: "Lu attacked Xudu."
Lu Bu and Hao Meng led the army out of the south gate of Xuzhou and rushed to Pengcheng. It seemed that they were really going to attack Xudu in this way.
In fact, the army hid not long after walking.
Lu Bu and others were ambushing and waiting on the side of the road.
Not long after, a middle-aged man rode his horse, rushed on a hurry, constantly whipping his horse's butt, and he didn't slow down until the checkpoint.
The soldiers checked the road guide and let them walk.
Lu Bu came out and asked, "Who is this person?"
"The shopkeeper of Guo Ji Silk and Satin Village said he had something to go to Xiaopei to get the goods."
Although the princes were in power, merchants traveled everywhere, and Xuzhou was not an isolated island, so it was impossible to cut off the trade of business and travel. As for the soldiers inspected, they were just checking whether there were iron, salt, crossbows and weapons and other prohibited items, and as for other things, they were all released.
Lu Bu arranged for people to return to the city and first went to Buji Silk and Satin Village. Then Lu Bu took a few personal guards and rode forward to chase him.
The good horses in the army are naturally much stronger than ordinary horses. The man just found that someone was chasing him behind him, so he was panicked and his speed was faster.
But isn't that kidding to compete with the Red Rabbit Horse?
The Red Rabbit Horse accelerated and went up: "Dropping off the horse and undergoing examination."
When this person saw that it was Lu Bu, he became even more panicked. After all, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the princes and countries did not systematically conduct detailed training, but were more extensive.
Seeing that the man kept horse racing, Lu Bu stretched out his arm and pulled it down.
When Xu Shitou came, he kept pulling the man to the ground, stuffing a piece of rag in his mouth and tied it up. After getting it back, the silk shop also closed the net. In addition to this man, there were also two old men.
The mother-in-law is hired to cook, and the store has not been open for a long time and has just opened in spring.
Lu Bu thought it was quite fierce. He had just occupied Xuzhou and had already moved in.
After interrogation, they were all left.
This boss and two friends are secret spies affiliated with Guo Jia, but the name is quite bold, Guo Ji Silk and Satin Village. However, this assassination has nothing to do with them. Their purpose is to monitor when the Xuzhou army will send troops.
