Chapter 220 Qingzhou City is in danger, Lu Bu is in desperate situation(1/2)
Author: Tough Bronze
Cao Cao said in a deep voice, "Yes, Pi'er has reached the age where he can exercise his responsibilities, so let him be stationed in Xuchang. However, Pi'er is young after all, and he still needs to rely more on Wen Ruo for matters in Xuchang."
Xun Yu raised his hands and saluted, "Here."
Xun Yu's face was expressionless at this moment, and it was difficult for others to know what he was thinking at this moment. He had a serious face and was very deep, so he never showed any emotions easily.
…
In December, Cao Cao personally led his troops from Xuchang to the north, setting up defenses and setting up camps in Guandu, Baima, Yanjin and other places.
In this battle, it is necessary to start a war with Yuan Shao in advance.
On the other side, under the leadership of Xi Yu, people and soldiers from all over the country continued to build food stations along the marching route.
At this point, the entire Yanzhou North, Xuzhou North, Qingzhou, and parts of Jizhou have entered a very tense war situation!
At this time, Lu Bu's mansion was in Beihai City, Qingzhou.
A lady who was as beautiful as heaven and full of charm personally put a robe on Lu Bu, and said softly, "General, who are you going to fight with the cold wind?"
"I don't know what I love about my concubine. It's because Xiyu bullied me too much!" Lu Bu said in anger.
"General, but I heard that Mr. Xi..." The woman next to Lu Bu looked like a woman shy of the moon, with a voluptuous figure, and her movements were natural and charming.
"General, from my point of view, I heard that Master Xi is very kind and righteous, and is definitely not a vicious person. General, why don't you consider joining forces with him..." The beautiful woman said softly.
"Diao Chan! What do you mean by this? Are you asking me to surrender to him?!"
Lu Bu's eyes were bloodshot and he stared at his concubine in disbelief.
Lu Bu's first wife was originally from the Yan family, and they had a daughter named Lu Lingqi, but now Lu Bu dotes on his concubine Diao Chan the most.
But Lu Bu never expected that his favorite concubine would actually try to persuade him to surrender to Xi Yu, which made Lu Bu very angry.
Diao Chan was not afraid of Lu Bu, and said, "General... I always feel uneasy when I see you. I can't sleep all night. I always talk about you, Mr. Xi. Naturally, I also want to solve the problem for the general."
"Unfortunately, I am a female prostitute and don't know how to help the general. However, I know this master, and if the general takes the initiative to show his kindness and make a friendship with him, we may be able to exchange for peace."
"This is nonsense, a woman's opinion!"
After saying this, Lu Bu immediately straightened his armor, his majestic and majestic body suddenly stood upright, and glanced at Diao Chan in a very condescending manner.
For some reason, Lu Bu suddenly felt a sense of irritability in his heart at this moment, and he really didn't want to talk to Diao Chan anymore.
In recent months, Lu Bu has been worried about the affairs in Xuzhou. He and Diao Chan have not slept in the same bed for several months, and they are only called husband and wife.
Lu Bu originally thought that relying on the wealth of Qingzhou, he would be able to go south to capture Xuzhou and defeat Xi Yu.
What he didn't expect was that Xuzhou Xiyu now dared to take the initiative to attack Qingzhou.
But Lu Bu knew very well that today's Xuzhou has developed commerce and is full of talents. Moreover, he is proud of the development of business and the number of talents. The Xuzhou that he has arrived now can be said to have strong troops and sufficient food and grass. No one dares to challenge Xuzhou easily.
Lu Bu looked at Diao Chan and smiled lightly, "Haha... Diao Chan..."
"I heard that Xi Yu has five wives and concubines, all of whom are beautiful and fragrant. Judging from this, Xi Yu probably likes beauties the most."
Lu Bu stared at Diao Chan and laughed in a low voice, "Diao Chan, you have the appearance of a fish out of place and a graceful figure. Xi Yu will definitely like you. I will give you to Xi Yu. How about it?"
Diao Chan was so frightened that her face turned pale. She immediately knelt on the ground and bit her lip. She was even shocked and humiliated in her heart, "General... I gave you advice to help you solve your problems. Why did the general say such hurtful words to me?"
!”
Lu Bu suddenly said coldly, "Hehehe... you think I'm afraid of Xi Yu?"
After saying that, Lu Bu stood up and picked up Fang Tian's painted halberd from the shelf in the inner room, and said very coldly, "If you think that Xiahou Dun is so arrogant, he will be killed by me and throw away his armor!"
"Now that Xi Yu has come to seek death, how can I not kill him! I will definitely cut off Xi Yu's head to let you know that a mere Xi Yu is nothing of any importance. I have never been afraid of him!"
After saying this, Lu Bu strode outside.
Diao Chan really had no way to deal with Lu Bu, so she could only frown.
At this moment, Diao Chan's pink dress was flying in the wind, the ribbons on her shoulders were fluttering in the wind, and her eyes were full of worry.
"General, have you ever thought that if you kill Mr. Xi, it will be like killing the world's sages. Not only will Cao Cao not let the general go, but even those Confucian scholars will hate you..."
Diao Chan had seen Xi Yu's portrait before, and she felt that Xi Yu was a very kind and honest person.
Not long ago, Xi Yu even saved at least millions of Jizhou people regardless of his own safety.
Because of this, even if Xiyu abolished Confucianism and did deviant things, the people still understood and supported Mr. Xiyu, and this was effective...
The New Year is approaching, but this year, with wars raging, there will be no dance of dragons and fishes. Instead, we should have the heart to die in battle.
At this time, Cao Cao led troops to attack the west of Qingzhou, while Xi Yu attacked the south of Qingzhou. Soon, Lu Bu was attacked from both sides by Cao Cao and Xi Yu, and it was difficult to resist.
The natural moat between Qingzhou and Jizhou was easily taken down by Cao Ren's Leopard Cavalry. They then guarded it and became a natural line of defense for Cao Cao.
If Yuan Tanru hadn't run fast, he might have lost his life long ago.
Within a month, Xiyu's white knights and black knights went on a killing spree near Beihai.
Whether they were rushing to kill the enemy in a chaotic battle or raiding late at night, they were all invincible. Lu Bu's soldiers did not dare to camp outside the city. Soon, Lu Bu lost many cities.
Moreover, all the cities were captured for almost the same reason: they did not dare to wander outside!
The camp is not allowed to leave the city.
Like a shrunken turtle, hiding in the city and not daring to go out.
However, the city is not a place they can defend.
After the war lasted for the second month, a large number of catapults were transported to the frontline battlefield on Xiyu's side.
In this way, Lu Bu and his soldiers were very angry.
If you leave the camp, you will be hunted mercilessly. If you hide in the city, you will be mercilessly bombarded by catapults.
This situation lasted for less than a month, and Lu Bu's most powerful trapped camp and himself were close to being driven crazy."
Soon, affected by this incident, Lu Bu's temperament changed drastically!
He originally thought that Xi Yu would wear armor and go into battle in person, but who would have thought that Xi Yu would not be on the battlefield at all.
Since the beginning of the war, Xi Yu has been sitting in the rear. Several times he rushed to the battlefield, but he only fought fiercely with Zhao Zilong, Dian Wei and others.
In this way, at the beginning of the whole war situation, Lu Bu could only retreat to the land of Beihai and stay in Pingshou City in Beihai Kingdom.
"It's really not easy for me..."
Lu Bu looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, then drank a sip of wine.
Now, among the surrounding cities, only Pingshou City still belongs to him, and the rest of the territories have all celebrated the New Year!
They are actually celebrating the New Year!!
Xi Yu's soldiers are making dumplings for the common people, in order to win over the homeless refugees and win people's hearts!
The Qingzhou soldiers commanded by Xi Yu were originally from Qingzhou. Xi Yu ordered his Qingzhou soldiers to talk to the people. In addition, Xi Yu was now well-known and could be said to be invincible wherever he went!
"It's really bastard and extremely hateful!!"
Lu Bu was very angry and extremely disappointed.
He kept banging on the document, and when he felt really uncomfortable, Lu Bu swung it hard and swept all the books and maps on the document to the ground!
Now, in front of Lu Bu, only Gao Shun, a powerful general, and Kong Rong, who bowed his head and sighed, were left.
"General..."
Diao Chan grabbed Lu Bu and gently helped him, feeling very worried about her.
"Get out of here!"
Lu Bu didn't appreciate it at all, he threw Diao Chan away and scolded loudly.
At this moment, Lu Bu felt very disappointed. Looking back on his past years, he still didn't understand why he ended up in this situation.
Lu Bu was already irritable and frustrated. When he heard Kong Rong sighing at the side, Lu Bu suddenly stood up, rushed to Kong Rong, grabbed his clothes tightly, and said coldly, "Kong Rong, I have long ordered you to let the nobles join us."
Me, why are you so reluctant to do anything?!"
"I treat you well, why do you want to harm me?!" Lu Bu wanted to kill Kong Rong.
"General, general..."
Diao Chan and Gao Shun saw that Lu Bu had murderous intent and immediately stepped forward to stop Lu Bu.
This matter had little to do with Kong Rong. Although he was a famous scholar, the nobles were unwilling to assist Lu Bu. Kong Rong alone could not convince the nobles.
It is true that Lu Bu was too cruel and his reputation has been infamous since Yanzhou.
This matter has nothing to do with Mr. Kong Rong. Although he is a famous scholar, he cannot convince all the nobles alone. Those people are unwilling to assist Lu Bu.
Now, Lu Bu and Yuan Shu have joined forces, and they are almost the same.
If Yuan Shu did not proclaim himself emperor and attacked from both front and rear, Yanzhou would have a chance to win.
But now...
But it was a complete failure!
Diao Chan looked at Lu Bu in front of her and felt very sad. Seeing that there was no one else here, she reluctantly advised him, "General, why don't you open the city and surrender to Lord Xi?"
