Chapter 308 A letter from a close friend (2)
The ink-colored handwriting is grand and masculine. The dense words on the plain silk are indeed from Zhang Yang's hand. As you look down, the ink gradually fades away, and the dark red blood words occupy the remaining space. Lu Bu feels mixed in his heart.
"...... Fengxian's brother, many days have passed since Shangdang's parting. Yang also heard about your conquering Yanzhou in the north, but he couldn't sleep or eat. Cao Cao is not a mediocre person. Be careful. If this letter can be reached by you, your brother should be settled down and you should congratulate me..."
"......There is no pen on the battle formation, so I can only continue writing with blood. I hope you don't have to joke. The war has been unfavorable recently. The enemy from the west is fierce and aggressive, and they kill our Han border residents to provoke trouble. I have been fighting with the generals under the command of the Governor Gongsun for a long time. I can only hold back and wait for the Governor reinforcements to arrive in time."
The hand holding the letter paper trembled slightly, and the sound of rain rinsing the leaves spread from outside into the room. The tall figure and mood were extremely complicated. After killing Dong Zhuo by Guo Si and Li Jue drove him out of Chang'an, almost everyone avoided him, Lu Bu was like a wolve. Only this close friend was not afraid of gossip and took him in, and even gave him a lot of funding.
The wind and rain outside the house were swaying, and the thunder occasionally rang through the sky. Yan, who was standing under the eaves of the corridor, looked at the tired figure cut out from the window, lowered his head and turned around and left here.
The faint sound of footsteps mixed with the sound of wind and rain walked through the outside.
In the room, the bean-sized light shook slightly. Under the dim light, Lu Bu took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, and slowly exhaled... His eyes continued to look.
"... Fengxian, the way forward is not easy. You and I know your nature. Jiuyuan's tiger wants to make the world famous, and wants to stand above everyone and fight for yourself, but... In fact, brother, you have done it. Now that I am in a position, it is no longer convenient to have more letters with my brother, but I still want to say something to you in person. Will you and my brother meet in the future?"
His eyes remained on the handwriting, and some words stinged Lu Bu's eyes, closing them slightly for a while to relieve the discomfort, but in fact, if there was such a day, he didn't know how to face Zhang Yang.
"I... don't know..." The slightly closed tiger eyes opened their eyes with a sigh.
"...... A person's life is over without paying attention. On the day of Shangdang's separation, Yang Wanpan couldn't bear to part with his brother. You and I have been half old. I'm afraid we will meet again. I'm afraid we have been in no time or month. In the past few days, the people of the Qin Dynasty have been very powerful. Every day, brothers have been lying down forever. On the battlefield, no general dares to say that he can win for the rest of his life... I panicked, and a seriously injured brother asked me if I could win. I said yes, but I don't have much chance of winning in my heart."
"When my brother received this letter, maybe Yang had already gone first, but please don't be sad for me. Zhang Yang died to guard the border of the Han Dynasty and died as a place. Brother should be honored for me. If my brother misses me, you can go to the north and walk around, Yang's soul will be guarding the border of the Han Dynasty, my hometown Jiuyuan."
The hand holding Su Bo was shaking even more and more, and the other hand tightly pinched the corner of the desk. Lu Bu's eyes were covered with bloodshot and became wet.
"......... This afternoon, another fight was fought. The group of barbarians from the west retreated. Another day had passed, but I didn't know how long it would take to stay there. I only knew that we could not retreat. After retreating from the city behind us, the people in the countryside were exposed to the enemy's blade, which made the great man even more embarrassed. At worst, they could only die..."
"It's almost dawn, I still have a lot to say to my brother. Unfortunately, I don't have time. If I can see you again in the future, I should congratulate me."
Finally, it says: Han minister Zhang Yang left his pen.
Su Bo held it tightly in his fist, and Lu Bu trembled all over, as if he had seen the tragic tragedy that had happened to his close friend in the distance. He gritted his teeth and suddenly shouted: "Ah--" with a sound of "Ha--", he raised his hand and lifted several tables, punching them into two pieces, wood chips and wrecks splattered and hit the walls and windows.
Her chest was violently undulating, in a state of fierce and furious state. The door was gently pushed open, and Yan's figure walked in. She glanced at the long desk that was broken on the ground and took a light step over to hold her husband's tense palm.
"Uncle Zhi... the general is bound to be killed in the battle..." Yan said softly.
"He... is more glorious than me." Lu Bu tightened his wife's hand, looked at the swaying Mars on the wick, and after saying a word, he stood there silently. The wind, rain, thunder and lightning outside the window were intertwined. He rubbed his sad face and drew a fierce look.
"The people of Daqin..." He whispered: "Madam, do you think I can still return to the north? Zhang Yang is right. I want to prove myself too much. It was like this in Bingzhou, Luoyang and Chang'an. I surrendered to Yuan Shao and was called as a dog. I sneaked into Yanzhou and ran away here. Now I am surrounded by many people. Madam... Do you think I can still go?"
Lu Bu suddenly laughed and said, "If I hadn't killed Ding Yuan at the beginning, or if I had been roaming the north like Gongsun Zhi, would you say the current wolf king be mine?"
"I'm afraid... no." Apart from Zhang Liao, the only woman Yan, who dared to say this in front of Lu Bu, was the only woman in Yan. She shook her head and chuckled a little more. "My husband always wanted to be upright, and the white wolf relied on the tricks of winning with less. Coupled with the title of General Baima and the influence of the Gongsun family in the north, it is naturally easy to accept. His husband was born in a slightly cold manner. Apart from the name of a flying general who made foreign tribes afraid and his martial arts that were unparalleled in the world, he only had a sense of blood and courage."
"You dare to say that." Lu Bu sighed, thought of the choice between the middle and calmed down: "I want to avenge Zhang Yang, I will avenge him with my own hands... But Gongsun Zhi, Cao Cao, I will never compromise easily... Let them look down on me."
The words fell like iron cut, and he hugged his wife beside him, listening to the swaying sound of the wind and rain outside the window, and hugged him tighter. After a few days, Lu Bu gradually calmed down his decadence and summoned all the generals to strictly prohibit drinking. After he began to set up the city walls. The wooden and oil that guarded the city were also brought to the top of the city one by one. More than 13,000 county soldiers were summoned from the surrounding county towns, and Zhang Liao, Cheng Lian and others were trained in batches. For this period of time, the enemy army outside the city was busy building.
Siege equipment, Lu Bu and others also wanted to suddenly fight out, destroy the results of the other party's hard work for half a month, and to slam morale. However, standing on the top of the city, watching, the fields around Xia Pi, a large number of northern wolf cavalry rolled up dust and smoke and patrolled and guarded, leaving them with no chance to attack. They even felt that the cavalry under Gongsun Zhi had increased a lot one after another, and had no chance of winning, so they had to train their soldiers to defend, and the entire city was also trapped in the preparations for the coming war.
The last day at the end of April, early in the morning.
In the camp outside the city, burning flames burned the meat on the rack, and tempting oil dripped down, pouring on the wood, making a sound. The generals in the tent were eating the whole sheep, and the swords, guns, swords and halberds around them exuded an atmosphere that was not pleasant. Each general led his armor and shouldered his sword, his face was particularly serious, and the atmosphere showed a solemn atmosphere.
Over the past few days, the army has been walking very slowly, not only to rush to build siege equipment, but also to make the soldiers mentally prepare for siege. As time progresses little by little, on the last day of this month, the pace of war finally reached the distant city.
"The sheep distribution banquet before the war was interesting." Cao Cao stared at the sheep on the sheep and said softly.
Next to him, when the words were spoken, Gongsun Zhi sat in the seat, quiet and terrible. After a moment, he opened his eyes and said, "The sheep are the enemy, but this enemy is making the final struggle in the city. Sikong... launch the general attack directly, and leave it to me."
Cao Cao nodded, stood up and pulled out Yitian: "Send the order! Start siege in the afternoon-"
"In two days, I will take down this city and I will meet Lu Bu's head!"
Slash the sword!
"yes!"
