Long Fei's decision to go to Dongjun in person not only shocked everyone in Wancheng, but even Cao Cao of Dongjun found it impossible. His invitation to Long Fei was just a rhetorical move, and now Long Fei is coming, completely disrupting his plan.
If Long Fei can't come, just give him an excuse to let Zhang Miao send troops. Now he has no excuse. Moreover, Long Fei's intention is unclear, and he is on pins and needles.
Counselor Cheng Yu thought for a moment: "Master, don't worry, I have a plan that can also provoke a conflict between Zhang Miao and Long Fei, and maybe even kill Long Fei!"
"Oh?" Cao Cao was overjoyed: "Zhongde, please tell me carefully!"
The date for Long Fei's departure was set on Ding Yin. According to the almanac, this day was a good day to travel. Before departure, Long Fei made an explanation of Wancheng's affairs. All major matters were handed over to Zhao Yun, assisted by Xun Yu and Jia Xu.
He also sent Zhang Liao with 10,000 troops to garrison Anzhong to prevent Liu Biao, Xu Huang to garrison Lushan, and Hua Xiong to garrison Anle, surrounding the entire Wancheng at its core. With Gao Shun as the main general, Huang Zhong, Zhang Xiu,
Wen was appointed as deputy general to guard Wancheng. As for Gan Ning and several of his brothers, they concentrated on building up the navy. At the same time, Xu Shu was ordered to command Talun, and Wang Wei was responsible for delivering the news. He only took Dian Wei and Chen Dao to command the three hundred personal guards.
, headed to Dongjun with Guo Jia and Li Ru as counselors.
The road from Wancheng to Dongjun is not long. Theoretically speaking, once you leave Wancheng and cross Yingchuan, you will enter Cao Cao's territory. Zhang Miao actually sent Chen Gong to meet him at the boundary bridge, which was somewhat unexpected. The two sides exchanged greetings.
After that, Chen Gong led Long Fei into the city. Chenliu City is a big city. It is five feet high and built entirely with blue bricks. The moat is two feet long and the water of the Yellow River flows around the city.
Chen Gong is of medium build, has a simple and honest face, speaks in a rigid manner, and looks compassionate. He was originally the magistrate of Zhongmou County. Cao Cao failed to assassinate Dong Zhuo and was captured by Chen Gong. Chen Gong was deceived by Cao Cao and helped Cao Cao escape, but he was disdainful.
Cao Cao killed innocent people indiscriminately and abandoned Cao Cao. Now he lives under Zhang Miao. Zhang Miao obeyed his advice and accepted Lu Bu because it was Chen Gong's wish.
Chen Gong helped Zhang Miao manage Chenliu, which was quite effective. Today's Chenliu has become as prosperous as it once was, with a dazzling array of shops, large and small. Pedestrians are crowded in and out. Businessmen from all over the street are coming and going. On the side of Chen Gong
After leaving, he introduced Chen Liu's situation and happy things to Long Fei, which was quite a bit of a show off. Long Fei listened carefully.
Turning the corner of the street and looking at the gorgeous inn in front of him, Chen Gong's face was filled with joy: "Come, come, everyone, please. The prefect has been entrusted by Master Zhou Mu to take good care of you. The Taiping Building has been reserved. You all will be here tonight.
Rest here, and the Grand Administrator will personally see General Long off early tomorrow morning!"
Taiping Tower is located in the most prosperous Shoushan Street in Chenliu. It is also the best and largest inn in Chenliu. In Chenliu City, only the largest shareholder, Prefect Zhang Miao, can book this place. The interior has been tidied up properly. Long
It was more than enough for Fei and his three hundred guards to live in. He said he was polite, but he still felt good in his heart. As soon as he sat down, the waiter hurriedly served the fine food. Everyone glanced at Long Fei, and Long Fei nodded.
Started to eat a lot.
It was a bit surprising to be treated like this by Zhang Miao. After drinking for three rounds, Long Fei suddenly asked Lu Bu. Chen Gong smiled and said: "General Lu had some misunderstandings with the general before. When he learned that the general was coming, he went out of the city. Don't mind, general."
!Come, come, please!”
Chen Gong's explanation seemed reasonable, but Chen Gong's words were a bit sloppy and sounded like they were made up. Everyone was almost drunk that day. Seeing that it was getting late, Chen Gong stood up and said goodbye, and everyone was sent to the door.
After closing the shop door, Long Fei staggered to find his room. The waiter hurriedly helped Long Fei to his room.
Guo Jia was surprisingly quiet today, and he didn't even drink a few drinks. Li Ru patted him on the shoulder: "Fengxiao, why..."
Before he finished speaking, Guo Jia looked at Li Ru. Li Ru understood, and the two of them headed towards the backyard. The Taiping Building is not only a three-story building in the front, but also has a large courtyard in the back with rows of guest rooms.
This is the real inn. After finding his room, Guo Jia held the door frame with one hand, turned his head and pretended to be drunk: "Little brother, where does my master live?"
"Tianzihao comes to the room!"
He closed the door and listened to the waiter's footsteps walking away. Guo Jia gently opened the door and stuck his head out. Just as he was about to look out, a big hand pressed hard on his head and pushed in hard.
Guo Jia didn't pay attention at all and squatted on the ground. A dark figure flashed in and closed the door again. With the light in the room, it turned out to be Long Fei.
"Lord! This..."
"Shh..." Long Fei made a silent move, strode to the oil lamp, opened his mouth and blew out the lamp, grabbed Guo Jia's arm and leaned against the wall behind the door. He listened carefully.
There was no movement outside, so he let go of Guo Jia: "You feel something is wrong too?"
Guo Jia nodded and lowered his voice: "This Zhang Miao is a bit too polite. We have never had any contact with him. We don't have to be like this for Cao Cao!"
"They are just superfluous!" Long Fei stood up slowly and looked around the courtyard: "I felt something was wrong when I walked into Chenliucheng, especially the vendors outside the Taiping Tower. They had no intention of doing business at all.
Looking at us, I guessed something was wrong, and I looked again just now, and the vendors on the street were still there!"
"Are you still selling goods at this hour?" Guo Jia shook his head and smiled bitterly. As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of falling roof tiles came from the yard, which reached his ears clearly. The two of them hurriedly silenced their voices and slowly stretched their heads under the window. The moonlight was very bright
It was so bright that everything in the yard was clearly illuminated. A dozen men in black climbed over the wall and tiptoed toward them. The steel knives in their hands glowed with a faint green light under the moonlight.
Two of them took out a foot-long bamboo tube from behind, gently broke the window of a room, and stretched the bamboo tube in. One room after another, they were about to arrive at the room where they were. Guo Jia was not at ease.
He dared to come out and stared at Long Fei with wide eyes. "Stab!" A hole was made in the window paper, and two bamboo tubes slowly stretched in. The shadows of the two people were clearly visible on the window.
Just when the two of them puffed up their cheeks and blew air in, Long Fei suddenly took action, stretched out his hands, and struck the two bamboo tubes with his palms. "Ah! Ah!" Two screams, two
The men in black with the bamboo tube stuck in their mouths fell on their backs, and blood flowed from the back of their heads. The men in black in the yard were stunned, and the lights in the surrounding rooms immediately turned on.
"You little thief, you actually bullied grandpa, are you tired of living?" Dian Wei was the first to rush out of the room, carrying a pair of halberds. Chen Dao protected Li Ru and met Long Fei.
"Zhang Miao is so evil that he dares to use such despicable methods?" Long Fei smiled slightly and held a blood-red dagger in his hand: "Don't ask, I am the ancestor of sneak attacks! Give it to me
Take it down, don’t let anyone go!”
Three hundred personal guards, led by Dian Wei, swarmed forward. The men in black resisted desperately, but they were outnumbered. And with Dian Wei as a powerful opponent at his side, they could not get any advantage. In less than a cup of tea, more than a dozen people
Eight men in black were killed, four were injured, and all were captured. Dian Wei scratched his head: "How dare you do it with this ability? They say Lu Bu is the best in the world, Dian Ye wants to fight with him! Let's see who is better, Dian Ye, me or Dian Ye.
He is awesome!"
One of the men in black hurriedly knelt down, enduring the pain in his arm: "General, have mercy on me, general, have mercy on me, Zhang Miao forced us to do this, we did not do it voluntarily!"
"Zhang Miao?" Long Fei stared: "Why did he want to kill me?"
"The villain doesn't know. He only let the villain kill people and didn't say anything else!" The man begged for mercy again and again: "General, please spare us! Please!"
Everyone looked at Long Fei. Long Fei closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then suddenly opened them: "Kill! Leave no one alive!" The guards did not hesitate at all, and with a slight stroke of the knife on the prisoners' shoulders, they were all alive.
Several people fell in a pool of blood with their eyes wide open, struggling continuously.
Long Fei turned around: "Here comes Chen! You lead my bodyguard team to stay and protect the safety of Mr. Feng Xiao and Mr. Li Ru. We will leave the city immediately tomorrow morning! Don't stay for a long time!"
"General, you...!"
Long Fei smiled: "Let's meet at Feihu Ridge outside the city! Remember, don't stay here for too long!"
"promise!"
Long Fei turned around and selected seven or eight people: "You don't need me to teach you, you know what I want to do!"
The moon had turned to the west, and Zhang Miao and Chen Gong stayed up all night. They had been waiting for news. Chen Gong kept comforting Zhang Miao, saying that his calculations about Zhou Xiang would never make any mistakes. Zhang Miao was still worried. Although he did not
He had seen Long Fei with his own eyes, but had heard a lot about it through hearsay. He also knew a little bit about the various versions. Just when Zhang Miao was about to lose his hold, the old butler came in a hurry: "Master, you're back!"
"How many have come back?"
"They all came back, and there are quite a few of them!"
Zhang Miao took a long breath and immediately put a smile on his face: "God bless, everything goes well, go and bring all my warriors, I will reward you heavily! Get rid of Long Fei, Wancheng can easily get it, now
Just waiting for news from Fengxian!"
More than a dozen men in black were brought into the lobby. Zhang Miao stood tall, accompanied by Chen Gong. Chen Gong was stunned when he saw a few people coming in. A dozen men in black knelt down and saluted. Zhang Miao laughed loudly: "
You are all my warriors. If you come, I will reward each of you with a hundred gold!"
"Thank you, sir!"
Zhang Miao nodded: "Thank you for your hard work, go down and change your clothes and have a good rest!"
More than a dozen men in black didn't even move. The leader walked towards Zhang Miao step by step, locking Zhang Miao with his eyes. As he walked, he gently took the black cloth tied to his face.
With a faint smile on his face.
"Long Fei!" Chen Gong shouted. When Zhang Miao heard this, he opened his mouth wide and unconsciously fell behind the couch. His teeth chattered in his mouth: "You, you, what do you want to do?"
Long Fei smiled slightly: "What do you think? I sent someone to assassinate the general of the imperial court. According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, I believe that the prefect knows better than I do how to deal with it! Tell me, what kind of death do you want? To split the chariot or be cut into pieces.
?I just invented a new criminal method called skinning, would Prefect Zhang want to try it?"
