Chapter Thirty-eighth, the big event that Xun Yu handles
In a fierce battle, Cao's army overwhelmed Bingzhou Jiama.
In the following days, Cao Cao personally supervised the manufacture of equipment and attacked the four gates of Puyang day and night. It was obvious that the resistance in the city became weaker and weaker day by day.
For several days in a row, Lu Bu occasionally quarreled with Cao Jun's generals at the top of the city, but Chen Gong never showed up again after he fainted.
Everyone in Cao's army was laughing and spreading that Chen Gong's rebels were probably scolded to death by Mr. Datong, and that Fang Guang had already achieved the great achievements promised by Ming Gong.
Among the army, only Fang Guang reviewed the battle situation of the day every day. The more he thought about it, the more he realized that things were just as he thought. After the great success, there was a great danger hidden!
On this day, all the siege equipment was ready, and Cao Cao summoned the generals to distribute the major siege tasks.
The tent was filled with joy, as if Lu Bu and Chen Gong had knelt before the tent, but Fang Guang stood up at an inappropriate time.
"Ming Gong, everyone, don't you think there is something strange about the recent events?"
"Lu Bu is brave enough to win the three armies, and Chen Gong is as cunning as a fox. Not to mention these two, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun are both rare and fierce generals in this world!"
"After a small defeat, we retreated into the city, gave up the advantage of the cavalry in the field, and let our army do whatever we wanted. Is there any mystery behind this?"
As soon as Fang Guang said this, everyone in Cao camp stopped talking.
Cao Cao and Xun Yu, who was whispering to him next to him, looked at each other and laughed together.
"Datong, I was just talking to Wen Ruo, when will you be unable to hold back your words? Wen Ruo said that you will speak today. It seems that you are still my son, and he knows things like a god!"
Cao Cao flicked his beard and nodded to Xun Yu next to him to explain.
Xun Yu looked at his fellow commander, an indifferent smile flashed across his face, and took out a letter from his arms.
"Datong, you are a great man who has worked hard in the countryside and mountains. You are decisive in facing enemies and irrigating mulberry trees. You are the best in the world. However, you still don't know much about the importance of a family to a county and the intrigues in all directions.
!”
When Xun Yu came up, he didn't say anything serious. What he meant between the lines was that although Fang Guang was smart, he was still a wild man in the yellow turban, and his ability to build a high-level building was a bit lacking.
Fang Guang heard that Xun Yu was a little bit secretive, but he was not angry and just smiled.
"I am willing to listen to Wen Ruogong's teachings!"
"In Datong, although Lu Bu is brave, he is the tiger of Bingzhou. This is Yanzhou. Let alone the wealthy people of Puyang, most of them still care about Duke Ming. Even Chen Gong may not be of the same mind as him!"
"The rebels can't attack Juancheng Dong'a in one go. In fact, they have already been defeated. Lu Bu's army is not powerful. It's not because he doesn't want to, but he really can't!"
"If I'm not wrong, starting from the time when Zhang Miao left the army to snatch food, the dissatisfaction among Lu Bu's army must have become bigger and bigger!"
"He is so powerful in front of Duke Ming, and he also suppresses his fellow soldiers. Naturally, he looks decadent everywhere!"
"I won't hide it from you. The Tian Gong clan of Puyang family was an official in Yanzhou during the time of the late emperor. When I was guarding Puyang, the head of the Tian family liked to get close and talk."
"Lü Bu is tyrannical. Now most of the people in the city hate him to the core. Ever since our army arrived in Puyang, the Tian family has contacted me!"
"Today at night, the Tian family's servants will control the east gate of Puyang and let my army march straight in!"
Xun Yu's words with a calm expression were quite meant to educate Fang Guang.
Cao Cao glanced at Fang Guangduo, fearing that he might want to explain with a smile.
"Building a siege ladder is just a way to blind your eyes. Datong, the Tian family's letters are all sent to Wen Ruo, and he and I are the only ones in the army who know about this!"
"After all, if you can hide it from your own people, you can also hide it from Lu Bu!"
"The east gate is wide open. I personally lead the soldiers into the city to stabilize the people of the city. This battle is a great victory. Wen Ruo takes the first place, and Feng Xiao, who supervises the ordnance, and Datong take the second place."
Cao Cao's face was filled with joy, and Fang Guang, who had opened his mouth to remind him that he would be made dumplings when he entered the city, couldn't help but fall silent.
You know, he is truly alone in Cao's camp. He talks too much and always looks ahead. Tian Feng in the north is a lesson learned from the past.
"Zangzhuo! Even if I say it now, my lord won't believe it!"
Fang Guang sighed in his heart and nodded sadly.
"My Lord, I don't care about the rest. I see Puyang floating in the sky, covered with blood, which is the sign of a fierce battle. Lord, when you enter the city, I would like to recommend Dian Wei to lead the armored retinue! Lord!"
Fang Guang didn't look at Xun Yu, but stared at Cao Cao.
Xun Yu's face darkened. Datong clearly showed that he did not believe in the unified warfare line he presided over.
He wanted to say something more, and Guo Jia, who had been silent all this time, also stood up.
"My lord, Datong's words are right. Lu Bu is a million enemies. In our army formation, we meet on a narrow road. Only Dian Wei is not afraid of him!"
"Okay, okay, Datong shows its filial piety and kindness, so I will accept it!"
"Zixiao, Zilian, you two will follow Dian Wei to protect me into the city, but after you have calmed down the Tian family, just open the four gates and wait for the troops to go straight in!"
"No, we have the order!"
"Today is the time when Lu Bu and Chen Gong will be crowned!"
All the generals in Cao's camp shouted together, and Fang Guang touched his nose and shouted a few words absentmindedly.
After the accounts were dismissed, all the troops went to prepare, and Dian Wei was called aside to give instructions alone for a long time.
Two hours passed, and Puyang City fell into darkness, with only the banging sound of soldiers on patrol at the top of the city resounding every half moment.
At three o'clock in the morning, at the east gate of Puyang, at the head of the city, a lantern turned several times facing the direction of Cao Ying.
Cao Cao, who was waiting outside the city, saw this scene and looked at Xun Yu next to him, and both saw the pride in the other's eyes.
"Roll, swoop, swoop."
After a while, the heavy city gate was slowly pushed open, and an old man with a white beard wearing a brocade robe slowly walked out of the city with a look of panic on his face.
"This is the old prince of the Tian family, my lord, great things have come true!"
Xun Yu, who had felt a sudden increase in pressure since Fang Guang came to Cao Ying, looked at the old man in front of him and his face suddenly brightened.
"Ming Gong, Ming Gong, the treacherous Lu Bu is no match for Ming Gong. He drinks alcohol and whips the soldiers every day. Now the thieves and soldiers in the city have become slack!"
"Also, Diao Chan next to Lu Bu tried to persuade him to be considerate to the soldiers, but she was also scolded. Now no one dares to say a word in front of that traitor!"
Seeing the east gate open, Cao Hong and Cao Ren guarding the gate, Cao Cao led Dian Wei straight into the city without saying a word.
At the city gate, listening to the old man's words, Cao Cao stroked his beard and a trace of reminiscence flashed in his eyes.
Diao Chan, when I was in Chang'an, wasn't my biggest dream during that time just to kiss this girl Fangze?
"Diao Chan is the adopted daughter of Prime Minister Wang Yun. You are not allowed to harm her when you enter the city. I want to personally inquire about what happened back then!"
Cao Cao's habit suddenly broke out, and everyone around him laughed and accepted his orders.
Yanzhou Mu, feeling very satisfied with his ambition, led everyone towards the Puyang government office. As expected, no one in the city hindered them.
The group of people turned the corner, and the old man from the Tian family volunteered to open the gate of the government office.
Cao Cao watched the old man quietly enter the door. He didn't respond for a long time, and suddenly his right eye started to beat violently.
"Dang Dang Dang!"
The sound of gongs and drums soaring into the sky suddenly filled the streets of Puyang, and the originally dark streets suddenly became brighter.
On the avenue at the end of the government office, there was an imposing man with a purple gold crown on his head, holding a Fangtian painted halberd, and his face was filled with ferocious murderous aura.
If not Lu Bu, who is Lu Fengxian?
A leader among men, a murderer in the world, with a face full of vigor and fierceness, how could he have been drained by wine and sex as Old Man Tian said?
