Chapter 138

Chapter 138 Xiapi

Lu Bu is a very controversial figure.

Generally speaking, later generations' evaluation of him was more negative than positive. A Romance of the Three Kingdoms even gave Lu Bu the name of a domestic slave with three surnames.

But at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Peng discovered that although people did not think highly of Lu Bu, they could not be said to be too bad.

I just say that it is the nature of tigers and wolves, and you should not believe it easily.

And what the slaves with three surnames said...

At least Cao Peng hasn't heard it yet.

People say that Lu Bu is sometimes called the tiger of the world, or he is the general of tigers and wolves.

As the saying goes, the red rabbit among horses is like Lu Bu among men. In some ways, it also shows his appreciation for Lu Bu.

This person, who is capricious and has the nature of a tiger or a wolf, is able to dominate an area alone, and is even cited as a serious problem by Cao Cao. To a certain extent, it seems to illustrate Lu Bu's ability. Before Cao Peng was reborn, he once heard

Such a saying: Lu Bu is also a time traveler. He is selfish, he is repetitive, he is lustful, but he is also very gentle to women, he is like a peerless good man in future generations.

His emphasis on family is far beyond what people of this era have.

During the Battle of Xiapi, Chen Gong suggested that Lu Bu divide his troops for defense. However, due to the persuasion of his family, Lu Bu could not leave Xiapi and eventually died tragically. He was a good husband and a good father. Yuan Shu forced him to send his daughter to Shouchun to get married.

Lu Bu carried his daughter on his back and repeatedly charged and killed the rebel army. Even when he was exhausted, he refused to abandon his daughter and returned to Xiapi City with her.

Compared with some people who frequently abandon their wives and children, Lu Bu may be more loved by girls.

When later generations talk about Lu Bu's never abandoning his family, they will inevitably mention the fact that Liu Bei abandoned his wife and children four times and fled for his life alone.

Among them, two were committed by Lu Bu.

But Lu Bu was extremely kind to Liu Bei's family.

After Lu Bu was captured, Cao Cao originally hoped to take Lu Bu in, but Liu Bei's words cost him his life.

Later, Lu Bu's family seemed to be divided up by Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others. The most famous one is probably the story of Guan Yu and Diao Chan...

Diao Chan is also a character loved by many people.

Beautiful hero... Guan Yu respects Diao Chan, Diao Chan loves Guan Yu, a hero matches a beautiful woman, it seems to be the most perfect ending.

But Cao Peng didn't seem to agree with this ending.

Puyang Kai asked him to bring gifts to visit Lu Bu in Xiapi. Cao Peng was surprised and happy at the same time.

What he was happy about was that he could see this legendary figure with his own eyes; what was surprising was that Lu Bu and the others were probably not easy to deal with either.

But whether he wants it or not, Xiapi is inevitable.

Regardless of whether it was public or private, Cao Peng had no excuse. Lu Bu worshiped General Zuo and faked the Xuzhou incident. Although this fake Xuzhou incident was somewhat unjust and unjust, no matter what, he always controlled Xuzhou. Haixi is Guangling

It is a county; Guangling is under the rule of Xuzhou. Now that Shangguan is victorious and triumphant, as the counties below, they have to go to congratulate according to the rites. This is something that no one can shirk.

As Pu Yangkai said, since Deng Ji is absent, Cao Peng should represent him.

Neither Puyang Kai nor Bu Zhao had this qualification. Cao Peng had no way to refuse, so he had no choice but to accept the matter...

But before leaving, Cao Peng still had some things to do.

First, he asked Bu Zhe to sell Chen Sheng's property as soon as possible in exchange for enough money and food to speed up the repair of Haixi County.

The dilapidated city wall really needs to be repaired.

And the corresponding weapons must also be fully equipped. After all, Haixi County has been unmanaged for so many years, and all the weapons in the treasury have been lost long ago. It’s ridiculous, Cao Peng’s father is in charge of all the inspections, and he is responsible for the world’s weapons

However, when Cao Peng needed it, he faced many difficulties. Weapons must be prepared secretly, not blatantly, and not known to too many people.

Otherwise, it will be easy to alert the enemy.

Secondly, Cao Peng visited Huang Zheng and other leaders of the nine major guilds.

He repeatedly stated that the renovation of Beiji Market was urgent and the first priority was to staff the Cao Department as soon as possible.

For this manpower, Cao Peng decided to start from the nine major families, with ten people from each family.

Once these ten people are included in Cao's administration, they will no longer have any connection with the heads of the nine major organizations.

Regarding this request, Huang Zheng showed enough understanding and promised to solve the problem of Cao Debu within three days.

Cao Peng drew up a beautiful blueprint for them, and now they must reciprocate and support Cao Peng.

After settling these two matters, Cao Peng went to Chen Sheng's farm again.

Overall, Chen Sheng's farm was relatively peaceful. Thousands of farmers did not show too much resistance.

Now that Gu Yue is coming soon, farming will definitely be impossible. But with so many people, we can't let them be idle. If they are idle, they will think wildly and cause trouble. That night, Cao Peng rushed back to the county government without stopping, and met Bu Zhi.

After some discussion, it was decided to put all these thousands of villagers into the project of repairing the city wall. Thousands of people started work, which would not cause trouble to Haixi, but could also keep these people busy. At the same time, by repairing the city wall,

It is also an opportunity for the county government to show its strength and prestige to the Haixi people.

By the time everything was arranged, it was past midnight.

Cao Peng lay on the couch, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

Tomorrow I will leave for Xiapi to see Lu Bu...well, a small county magistrate may not have the chance to meet Lu Bu.

I guess I just put the gift there and left a name to prove that someone from Haixi County has been here, and that's it.

But Cao Peng felt a little reluctant. He hoped to take this opportunity to meet Lu Bu. Because he knew that he would meet Lu Bu once, not once...

Oh, what a contradiction, what a headache!

Cao Peng turned over, closed his eyes, and unconsciously fell into sleep.

In his sleep, he dreamed that he was riding Zhaoyebai, galloping on the plains. Zhaoyebai was riding like lightning, and he felt the exhilaration of it. Suddenly, there was a ball of fire in front of him, rushing toward him. The people on the horse,

Wearing a hundred-flower war robe, Tang Ni treasure armor, a red rabbit hissing wind beast under his crotch, and holding a Fangtian painted halberd. With majestic appearance and murderous intent, he easily blocked Cao Peng's path.

"Dare I ask, who is Wen Hou Lu Bu?"

The general on the horse laughed heartily.

It's strange to say that the other party is obviously not far away from him, but he can't see his face clearly.

Just when Cao Peng was puzzled, the general suddenly rushed towards him on horseback, and the Fang Tian Painted Halberd in his hand somehow turned into the Qinglong Yanyue Sword.

He has a red face, silkworm eyebrows, pink and phoenix eyes, and a beautiful beard under his chin.

"Thief Cao, please leave... Guan Yu is here!"

It was too late, but soon, Guan Yu slashed at Cao Peng with his sword.

For some reason, when the Qinglong Yanyue Sword struck towards him, Cao Peng's body seemed unable to move, and he watched helplessly as the dazzling steel knife got closer and closer!

"ah!"

Cao Peng yelled and turned over to sit up.

In the room, candles flickered and the light was dim.

The charcoal fire in the brazier was still burning brightly, and the room was as warm as spring.

My forehead was dripping with cold sweat.

The clothes were soaked with sweat...

Cao Peng felt his mouth was dry, so he stumbled down from the bed, picked up a bowl of boiled water, and drank a large bowl of it.

call……

It’s so damn weird, how could such a good person have such a strange dream?

Cao Peng wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself down.

I think about it every day and dream about it at night.

Could it be that this dream is reminding me that going to Xiapi this time is not as easy as I imagined? Cao Peng was an atheist in his previous life, but now, he is not sure. Even weird things like rebirth can

If it happens, what else is impossible in this world?

It seems that you have to be more careful!

Cao Peng didn't sleep well that night.

Whenever he closed his eyes, he would dream of Guan Yun Chang baring his teeth and claws, and lunging at him with the Qinglong Yanyue Sword...so that after dawn, Cao Peng got up with a pair of dark circles under his eyes. His energy also seemed a little listless, and his tinnitus was severe.

, my head was buzzing.

"Afu, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Wang Mai looked at Cao Peng's haggard look and couldn't help but ask.

"I'm fine, I just didn't sleep well last night."

Cao Peng waved his hand, took Wang Mai and said, "Brother Hutou, it may take me a few days to go to Xiapi. You can keep an eye here more, and by the way, pay more attention to Wang Cheng. At the North Market

Just worry about it while you wait for everyone to arrive and use it for your own use as soon as possible.

I will definitely be back in three to five days at least, and seven to eight days at most."

"Don't worry, Fifth Brother and I will pay attention to things over there in the North Market."

"Um……"

Cao Peng nodded and didn't say anything more.

He knows Wang Mai very well. Although he is a bit straighter, he is not stupid.

If you leave the matter to him, he will definitely try his best to complete it, so Cao Peng is not particularly worried.

After washing up, he felt much better. Cao Peng changed his clothes, took Zhao Yebai out of the stable, and walked outside the county government office.

The carriage has been prepared, and inside it is a congratulatory gift for Lu Bu.

Most of these gifts were confiscated from Chen Sheng's mansion. After Puyang Kai and Bu Zhi carefully selected them, they selected this cart of gifts. Cao Peng only took a cursory look at them, and found nothing more than some gold, silver, and silk.

It doesn't look very shabby either.

"Second brother, third brother, let's set off."

Originally, Cao Peng planned to go there alone, but after Dianman Xu Yi heard about it, he insisted on going together.

Both of them are brave and fierce people. Dian Wei once fought with Lu Bu and praised him in front of Dian Man after returning home. As for Xu Yi, he has heard the name of the tiger for a long time but has never received it.

See. This time they had the opportunity to go to Xiapi, and they wanted to see Lu Bu's style.

Speaking of which, their thoughts are somewhat similar to Cao Peng's.

Dianman took ten of his retinues, and Xu Yi took ten of his retinues, plus servants and charioteers, a total of more than thirty people, and slowly left through the northwest gate of Haihai City.

When leaving the city, Cao Peng also met Wang Cheng.

He smiled at Wang Chao on the horse and nodded, which was regarded as saying hello to Wang Cheng.

Wang Cheng, on the other hand, raised his hand towards Cao Peng with the same smile on his face...

In October of the second year of Jian'an, Lu Bu assisted Cao Cao in attacking Yuan Shu and returned in triumph.

At that time, Yang Feng and Han Siam assisted Lu Bu in defeating Yuan Hou and stayed in Xiapi. Due to the constant war in Xuzhou and Yangzhou, Yang Feng and other military and food officials wanted to usurp Xuzhou. The two of them made an appointment with Liu Bei, intending to take advantage of Lu Bu's return to the army to fight together.

Attack Lu Bu and annex Xuzhou.

However, Liu Bei disliked Yang Feng, so he invited Yang Feng to the army, took the opportunity to kill Yang Feng, and took his soldiers and horses as his own.

When Han Xian saw the death of Yang Feng, he fled to Bingzhou with more than ten cavalry. However, he was killed by his tribe on the way! Yang Feng and Han Xian were declared destroyed.
