368 Soldier at the Gate 1

Lu Bu was riding on the red rabbit horse, feeling refreshed and refreshed. His muscles were all taut and full of explosive power. Standing on the horse, he looked like an insurmountable mountain. He looked as if the world was in his hands.

"Lu Bu is indeed the most powerful man in the Three Kingdoms. Every time I see him, I always give people an indescribable feeling. That kind of aura that looks down on the world, as if everyone is just a passing cloud in his eyes..." Gao Fei looked at

He was speeding towards Lu Bu, thinking secretly in his heart.

Lu Bu took the lead, and the Red Rabbit horse under him was even more impressive. Carrying Lu Bu, he galloped in front of Gao Fei in a blink of an eye. He reined in the horse, raised his hand and said, "How are you, Marquis Yan?"

Gao Fei smiled and said, "Everything is fine with me. I wonder how the Marquis of Jin is doing?"

Lu Bu chuckled and said: "In the bitter cold land of Bingzhou, I have been bullied by Xianbei many times. You can imagine how Yanhou is doing."

Gao Fei stopped being polite, because there would be no end to the polite words, so he got straight to the point: "How many troops did the Marquis of Jin bring this time?"

Lu Bu said: "Not many, 50,000 cavalry, but only 30,000 actually reached Yecheng. I separated the rest of the troops to occupy Zhongshan, Changshan, Julu, and Zhaojun. I would also like to express my special thanks.

The generosity of Marquis Yan not only gave me Zhongshan, but also gave me the giant deer. It seems that I, Lu Bu, have not made you my friend."

Gao Fei smiled and said: "Since I invited the Marquis of Jin to help me, I must show some sincerity. This time Yuan Shao was besieged by me in Ye City, and he couldn't escape even if he wanted to. Although I have nearly a hundred thousand

people, but more than 50,000 of them are surrendered troops and cannot be used

Fighting, and Yecheng's city defense is also very thick, there will naturally be many difficulties in conquering such a strong city. I heard that the cavalry under the Marquis of Jin are all tiger and wolf warriors, so I would like to ask the Marquis for help. Besides, this Yecheng

Once it’s captured, isn’t it still yours?”

Lu Bu said: "Don't worry, just because you give me half of Jizhou, even if you don't tell me, I will capture Ye City."

Gao Fei cupped his hands towards Lu Bu and said, "Then it's settled. I will withdraw from the west gate and give it to the Marquis of Jin. I only need the Marquis of Jin to guard the west gate."

Lu Bu said: "Very good, then it's settled."

"Well, the Marquis of Jin has come all the way. I've already asked people to prepare a small amount of wine. I won't come home until I'm drunk tonight." Gao Fei made a gesture of invitation, but his eyes were fixed on the cavalry galloping behind Lu Bu. Seeing those

The knights on horseback were all strong men, and each of them had a fierce look. They didn't look like good people, and I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. Then he said loudly: "Brother Feng, please!"

Lu Bu was not polite. He dismounted his horse and followed Gao Fei away.

The four generals Zhao Yun, Xu Huang, Chen Dao, and Wenpin looked at Lu Bu passing by. For some reason, all four of them felt a pressure that they had never experienced before at the same time. That kind of pressure was invisible, and it seemed that it was coming from Lu Bu.

The aura emanating from his body was enough to make them feel in danger, and the four of them couldn't help but have a thought in their hearts: "This person is too dangerous..."

Lu Bu didn't need to speak, he just made a gesture behind him, followed closely by Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, the second generals and their men, and headed towards the west gate.

Gao Fei also immediately ordered: "Zhongye, please go to Ximen and tell Pang De to lead the soldiers to withdraw from the siege and give up the military camp to the Jin army."

After Wenpin heard this, he said "Promise" and rode away.

Lu Bu, a master of art, was bold and did not need any followers or guards. He followed Gao Fei alone into the Yan army's camp.

In the Yan army's camp, Gao Fei had already arranged everything, and the banquet had been started. Gao Fei and Lu Bu were seated as guest and host. After sitting down, Gao Fei said: "Brother Feng, do you want to bring Zhang Liao and Gao Fei to the table?"

Would you like to invite them all to have a drink together?"

Lu Bu shook his head and said, "Let them go. We brothers are the only ones here to reminisce about old times. They also have to deal with the affairs of the military camp. After they capture Yecheng and kill Yuan Shao, we will have a celebration banquet together. Then

The two armies all gathered together and drank for three days, hahaha!"

After Gao Fei heard Lu Bu's words, he felt that Lu Bu had already regarded Ye City as his own. From that tone, it seemed that Ye City didn't need to be attacked at all. He admired Lu Bu's confidence very much, but he knew that during the siege battle, it was

There were many difficulties. In his eyes, Lu Bu was just a simple child who only focused on fighting. Speaking of resourcefulness, even the simplest strategy could kill him.

Raising his glass, Gao Fei said with a smile: "In that case, there are only two of us here, let's drink as much as we want."

Lu Bu felt that the wine glass was not generous enough, so he directly picked up the wine jar, held it up and said to Gao Fei: "Do it!"

Gao Fei raised the wine glass in his hand and said cheerfully: "Do it!"

The two people drank with each other without saying much, perhaps because they were both the overlords of one party.

As the sun set and dusk fell, Lu Bu said goodbye to the camp where Gao Fei was staying with a red face, and rode his red rabbit horse towards the military camp outside the west gate of Ye City.

Gao Fei was slightly drunk and smelled of alcohol. Coupled with the hot weather, the tent seemed very stuffy, so he walked out of the tent alone.

The evening breeze blew slowly, blowing away some of the smell of alcohol on Gao Fei's body, and his eyes gradually became clearer. He saw countless soldiers holding excavation tools, leaving the camp in an orderly manner, and setting up their respective camps.

Under the leadership of the commander, they filed out of the camp.

A spectacular scene unfolded. More than 10,000 infantrymen were digging deep ditches outside the north gate, and some were carrying earth. The cavalry was scattered in the front and on both wings as cover, for fear that the enemy troops in the city would come out to harass them.

At this time, Gao Fei saw two people walking in the opposite direction from outside the camp. The figures were so familiar. They were Xu You and Wei Yan who had gone to Changyi to contact Cao Cao.

Seeing that Xu You and Wei Yan were back, Gao Fei immediately became sober. He waved to Xu You and Wei Yan and said, "Come here and talk!"

Xu You and Wei Yan had a lot of troubles along the way. It was hard work when they went, and they had to be more comfortable when they came back, because they didn't encounter any of Yuan Shao's troops when they came back, and the journey was smooth. The two came to Gao Fei's

In front of them, they worshiped together and said: "See you, Lord!"

Gao Fei asked: "Will the trip to Changyi be fruitful?"

Xu You said: "Cao Cao has promised my lord and has sent troops. When Chang Wen and I arrived in Puyang, Taishan County had been completely captured by Cao Cao. Yuan Tan, who was trying to cross the Yellow River, was defeated by Zang Ba several times.

He blocked his way back and lost more than a thousand troops. When he heard that Cao Cao had captured Taishan County and marched from Taishan County to Qingzhou, he led his men to turn around and go back to deal with Cao Cao. However, judging from his subordinates, Yuan Tan was not at all

Cao Cao’s opponent.”

After hearing this, Gao Fei nodded and said, "Well, you've worked hard, go down and rest first."

Xu You leaned forward and said, "Promise, I will resign!"

When Gao Fei saw Xu You walking away, he said to Wei Yan, "Come in with me."

Wei Yan entered the tent and saw Gao Fei sitting in his seat, so he paid homage and said, "My lord."

"How is it? Xu You went to Changyi once. Did he do anything unusual?" Gao Fei waved his hand and motioned for Wei Yan to sit down.

After Wei Yan sat down, he said loudly: "My lord, Xu You did not do anything unusual. My subordinates followed Xu You closely all the way, eating, drinking, and sleeping together. However, my subordinates discovered the relationship between him and Cao Cao.

A secret of…”

"Secret? What secret?" Gao Fei asked nervously.

Wei Yan chuckled and said, "How should I put it..."

"Tell the truth!"

"Nuo! Xu You and Cao Cao's first wife were childhood sweethearts. When they were young, they both liked that woman. Later, the woman was snatched away by Cao Cao. This seemed to be an eternal pain in Xu You's heart. This is what I heard from Xu You.

You only found out when you were talking in your sleep." Wei Yan answered truthfully.

Gao Fei almost didn't laugh after hearing this. He didn't expect Xu You and Cao Cao's wife to have an affair, so he waved his hand and said: "You have worked hard this time. I asked you to look at Xu You. I guess he himself knows why.

But Xu You is a scheming person, so we have to be careful. You should have a good rest these days. When we attack Yecheng, I will promote you to the Eighteen Hussars again, because there are too few among the Eighteen Hussars.

one person."

"Short of men? Who is missing?" Wei Yan's face immediately changed color. For him, having few men meant that someone was killed in battle.

Gao Fei said: "Hu Ciyue!"

"Is it him? How did Hu Yu die?"

"Our army was ambushed in the Battle of Julu. Hu Yu was killed in order to cover the retreat of the main force."

Wei Yan immediately stood up, clasped his fists and said: "Lord, let me take Hu Yu's place. I won't make the same mistakes as before. Please give me a chance to lead the troops in battle, break through Yecheng, and replace Hu Yu."

revenge!"

Gao Fei said: "Well, you should rest for a few days first. There is no need to fight during these days. Even if there is a fight, it will not be a charge, it will just be a general interception."

When Wei Yan came back from outside, he had already seen the doorway. When he saw so many people digging deep ditches and building barriers, he asked: "My lord, I want to block Yuan Shao in the city, besiege him instead of attacking, and then let his morale decline."

low?"

Gao Fei nodded and said: "Clever! Okay, you go down and rest first. Take a good rest these days. After that, I will reinstate you as an officer and lead the charge into Yecheng."

"promise!"



The city walls of Yecheng were brightly lit, and the soldiers on patrol looked outside against the light of the fire. They could vaguely see figures moving outside the city, but they couldn't tell what was going on.

At this time, Shen Pei led a patrol to the north gate. He opened his mouth and asked, "What's going on?"

"It's nothing! But..."

"But what?"

"But I can always see figures moving outside..."

After hearing this, Shen Pei immediately looked into the darkness outside the city gate, but saw that the lights in the Yan army's camp were dim, and he did see a shaking black shadow in the darkness. He immediately said: "Shoot towards the open space.

Ten rockets, I want to see clearly what is going on there!"

"promise!"

As soon as he finished speaking, ten rockets were placed on the bowstring and shot outward. Although the range was short, the weak light still illuminated some clues, which surprised the judge when he saw it.

"No! Open the city gate quickly and attack quickly!" Shen Pei shouted loudly.
