Guo Tu and Xu You don't deal with each other, but fortunately they are both from Henan, and there has been no conflict in the camp. Most of the time they are stepping on each other just to use each other as a stepping stone, and there are actually relatively few direct conflicts.
But Shenpei is different. He is from Hebei and Guo Tu is from Henan. The two parties are already on the same page. In addition, over the years, Guo Tu has supported Yuan Tan and Shenpei has supported Yuan Shang. I can’t even remember the number of direct conflicts. , it’s already a life-or-death situation.
Guo Tu can still stand here and talk now, not because he has a good heart in judging his wife, but because of the overall situation.
After Yuan Shang came to power, the status of Shen Pei has been elevated to the rank of the first civil servant. It is not difficult to figure out Guo Tushi.
Unfortunately, the new master has just been established, and the people's hearts are unstable. If he kills the old master immediately, he is afraid that it will cause turmoil, and this is how a series of butterfly effects follow.
However, this problem does not exist here in Guo Tu. Not only can Shen Pei die, but his death will also leave Guo Tu with a meritorious service that cannot be recorded in Lin Mo's heart. Why not Why?
"Where is my Lord?" Faced with Guo Tu's death threat, Shen Pei was not afraid. The only person who worried him was Yuan Shang.
He just heard someone shouting the word "revenge" outside. He thought something big had happened. However, he couldn't leave the camp due to the identity of the prisoner. Now he just wanted to die and find out.
"Yuan Shang him, Yuan Shang him."
Guo Tu shook his head, let out a long sigh, looked at the judge who was eager to know the answer, and showed a triumphant smile, "Send the supervisor on his way."
"What happened to my lord? What happened to my lord?" Shen Ping struggled desperately and roared hysterically.
Obviously Guo Tu wanted to make him die with his eyes open, so several guards restrained him. One of them walked behind him with a hemp rope and tightened his neck severely.
Feeling suffocated, the judge's eyes bulged, his tongue stiffened, his face turned the color of pig liver, but he still looked at Guo Tu unwillingly. He just wanted to know what happened to Yuan Shang.
If it had been anyone else, it would have been a mere rumor, but the person coming was Guo Tu, and he was destined to go on the road with regrets.
After a while, the whites of Shen Pei's eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, and he stopped responding, and then the bodyguard let go of his hand.
Then he quickly tied the rope to the top crossbar of the tent, lifted Shenpei's body up, and hanged him passively.
In his life, Shen Pei has done many ridiculous things and heroic feats. Later generations will always have a complicated and difficult conclusion about him. He is like a villain, but not an outright villain; he has heroic spirit, but it also reflects dark.
But in fact, the matchmaker is the epitome of most people. They are conceited and brilliant. At least their loyalty to Yuan Shang can be regarded as a legacy for the heroes of the Northern Kingdom.
Yuan Shang came, and he didn't bring many people, at least far less than Zhao Rui's troops. At first glance, it looked like a lineup of ten thousand people.
According to his thinking, Zhao Rui was prepared to kill Yuan Shang and avenge Yuan Tan without saying a word.
But Yuan Shang's direction was towards Lu Bu, which forced Zhao Rui to resort to caution, fearing that Lu Bu's people would also be involved.
"Uncle, my nephew Shuntian's rebellion has brought Yuan Tan to justice. However, there are still rebels who want to cause chaos. I kindly ask my uncle to stay and help my nephew break up the rebellion!"
Listen, how intimate it is. It's obviously the first time we met. If it weren't for Lu Bu's iconic attire, he might not have been able to find the person to shout to.
"Xianfu, my dear nephew, we are all brothers and sisters in the northern country. We hope that we should consider the common people and not force ourselves to fight." Lu Bu is a kind man and does not want to see another war or cause any more casualties.
"If my uncle is willing to help, my nephew is willing to donate 200,000 stones of grain and grass to Xuzhou Mansion every year, and the two families will become allies!"
Yuan Shang's words made Zhao Rui's heart tighten. He actually offered such a superior condition. He was worried that Lu Bu would really waver, so he also shouted: "Marquis Wen! My young master treats Marquis Wen like a king and a father, and with an alliance in front, Wen Hou Naixiao, a hero who knows good and evil, can't bear to turn against my son when his body is still cold. If so, the world will scold Marquis Wen for being unjust, and I hope Marquis Wen will think twice!"
"uncle."
Lu Bu raised his hands and pressed them, and both sides immediately fell silent. Everyone was paying attention to him. Even the tens of thousands of troops behind Zhao Rui held their breath and stretched their necks to look at Lu Bu.
Because everyone knows that what he says next will determine the outcome of this battle.
In this situation, although Zhao Rui had the advantage in numbers, if Lu Bu and Yuan Shang joined forces, he knew that they would probably not be able to defeat them, and the morale of the army might collapse instantly.
"I, Lu Bu, have never fought in my life and have always been willing to resolve fights. However, everyone in the world thinks that I love fighting. This is really a huge misunderstanding."
Lu Bu looked at the two sides and said with a troubled face: "Too many people have died here in Xiajin. I originally wanted to ask you two to stop fighting, but your hatred is too deep and cannot be resolved with a few words. Today I propose One plan, war or peace all depends on God's will."
Yuan Shang was just a puppet, just looking at Lu Bu without saying anything. Zhao Rui rolled his eyes and asked in a deep voice: "Everyone knows that Marquis Wen can shoot halberds. It would be unnecessary if he shoots halberds at the gate."
Lu Brown laughed loudly and waved his hand, "No, no, no. Now I will serve as guarantee. Please send a strong general from each of your two families to fight in front of the battle. If General Zhao wins, you can just fight. I will not Intervene; if the wise nephew wins, you must stop fighting and make peace.
If the outcome has been decided but someone wants to break the rules, don't blame me for doing justice to God. "
Zhao Rui first looked at Yuan Shang's camp, then lowered his head and thought for a while. In the battle last night, Yuan Shang's warriors Ma Yan and Zhang Jie were killed in the battle, and He Mao was captured. He had no useful people around him anymore. The matter could be taken over, so he shouted loudly: "I am willing to listen to Marquis Wen's instructions."
"Okay, you both send your generals!"
After Lu Bu shouted, Yuan Shang didn't speak at all. Next to him, a man wearing Yuan Jun's battle armor, holding a tiger-headed golden gun, and a short, messy beard rode out.
Zhao Rui, the one who can beat him the most is of course himself. During those years when he served as deputy general by Wen Chou's side, even Gongsun Zan was beaten to a pulp by them. In the Battle of the Boundary Bridge, he also helped Wen Chou repel him. There are three generals under Gongsun Zan, and their combat power is real.
When the distance got closer, Zhao Ruicai carefully looked at the burly man in front of him. His figure looked quite scary, but he had never seen this man before. He was probably promoted by Yuan Shanggang not long ago. He didn't believe how powerful he was.
The really capable people should have been sent out to surprise the camp last night.
"The general will be named. Zhao's spear will not kill the nameless rats."
Zhao Rui's provocative shouts did not receive a response. The man clamped his legs, the horse charged suddenly, and the tiger-headed golden spear in his hand stabbed Zhao Rui directly.
The moment the two spears collided, a frightening force reached Zhao Rui's mouth. What a powerful force!
I thought he was going to use all his strength as soon as he came up, but the tip of the opponent's gun slipped down the barrel of his gun and stabbed straight into Zhao Rui's chest.
In shock, he immediately pressed down the spear, and then barely managed to escape this killing move.
Amazing!
After just one round, Zhao Rui immediately knew that the person coming was definitely stronger than him, and he couldn't help but feel a little panicked.
But this is a battlefield. Once the fighting begins, it will be a fight to the death. No matter how powerful the opponent is, he can only bite the bullet and fight to the death.
The wrong horse turned around, and without waiting for Zhao Rui to adjust, the short-bearded man charged again. This time he put away his contempt, sacrificed what he had learned in his life, and opened fire with full force.
Zhao Rui's biggest advantage is that he is fast, but his disadvantages are also obvious: he lacks strength, so he wants to crush the opponent with absolute speed.
But he didn't know what fast meant until the two of them fought together. The opponent's tiger-headed golden gun danced around with pear blossoms, and the tip of the gun seemed to turn into seven or eight arrows and stabbed at him.
The opponent's speed was so fast that he was dazzled just by catching the gun shadow with his eyes, let alone fighting back. The reason why he was able to block them one by one was because Zhao Rui stimulated the potential in his body when he was about to die.
After riding the wrong horse again, he gasped for air. It looked so familiar. He must have seen it somewhere before.
The opponent's marksmanship was fierce and ruthless, and his attack angle was tricky. He must have seen this kind of marksmanship before.
By the way, it's Zhao Yun!
In my mind, the scene at Jieqiao many years ago came to mind. By the way, when General Wen Chou was chasing Gongsun Zan, an unknown young general suddenly came out and rescued him. It was later found out that the man's name was Zhao Yun, and his marksmanship was similar to that. People are very similar!
But the person coming was not Zhao Yun. During the days of the alliance between the two armies, Zhao Rui had seen Zhao Yun countless times, so of course he would not fail to recognize him.
But who is he?
"You" he wanted to ask clearly who the visitor was, but how could the other party give him a chance to ride towards him again.
This time, the short-bearded man's spear became more powerful, making a whirring sound. The barrel of the spear was visible to the naked eye, but the tip of the spear could accurately stab Zhao Rui's face.
It's too strong, it's not on the same level at all. I'm afraid Wen Chou will have to go out in person to be able to suppress this person.
Zhao Rui was shocked and suspicious. There was absolutely no way that such a fierce general could be unknown, and it was impossible for Yuan Shang to keep such a person unused.
The short-bearded man's spear was so fast that others saw it as nothing more than afterimages. The soldiers all felt fear in their hearts. Yuan Shang felt despair in his heart. I thought that Lu Bu and Zhao Yun were already invincible, but I didn't expect that he had such a fierce general under his command. , it seems that I really need to be more honest in the future.
Probably, only Lu Bu was looking at it with a judgmental eye. He crossed his arms and looked outside, thinking that Ziwen and Zilong were obviously brothers. Why was Zilong's spear skills improved a lot, but Ziwen was still the same as before.
If Zilong had appeared this time, he would have fallen off his horse at this time.
As the commander of this army, Lu Bu was silently ranking in his mind. Zilong was the best, followed by Yan Liang and Wen Chou. Yunwen said that Xingba was invincible in water battles, but it was unknown. As far as land battles were concerned, Xingba He couldn't beat Ziwen, so Ziwen should be ranked fourth.
After only ten rounds, Zhao Rui's hands were trembling and his mouth was cracked. He couldn't beat him. He really couldn't beat him. From the beginning to the end, he only fought back three times. The rest were beaten by the opponent.
However, in Zhao Rui's view, Yuan Tan's hatred was sworn in and he was determined to fight to the death even if tens of thousands of people died. He took the initiative to ride his horse and go to Zhangxiu to get entangled with each other.
Facing the sweeping spear, Zhang Xiu leaned back and used the iron bridge to avoid it. Then, taking advantage of the opponent's weakness, he pierced Zhao Rui's back with his carbine.
Looking at the gun head dripping with blood in his abdomen, Zhao Rui opened his mouth with difficulty, "Young Master, the final general is incompetent."
Huh~
Zhang Xiu withdrew the tiger-headed golden gun, and Zhao Rui fell to the ground.
"Must win! Must win! Must win!" The soldiers around Yuan Shang shouted in unison, but he did not shout because he could not empathize with this honor. These were all Lu Bu's people.
When Yuan Tanjun witnessed Zhao Rui's death in battle, he couldn't help but take a few steps back and looked at Zhang Xiu with a bit of horror.
"Okay! The victory has been decided. If anyone dares to start a war this time, don't blame me, Lu Bu, for being ruthless!"
Lu Bu stood up at the right time, raised his halberd and roared, and the soldiers behind him also shouted, "Marquis Wen! Marquis Wen! Marquis Wen!"
The morale of the army, which was originally frightened by Zhao Rui's death, was shaken. After these two powerful shouts, Yuan Tanjun's morale collapsed, and some even simply put down their weapons.
This is normal. Not everyone was willing to fight for Yuan Tan. Now that Zhao Rui is dead and Lu Bu is standing by to threaten him, no one dares to come out to stabilize the morale of the army.
"Xianfu Xianfu, my uncle is a man of his word. You can rest assured and put an end to the chaos. My uncle will be there to help you."
Lu Bu's understanding of righteousness made Yuan Shang nauseous. You are enough, you are better than the other!
Yuan Tan is right, our great cause in the Northern Kingdom will be stolen by you, Weng, a pair of thieves!
Yuan Shang felt humiliated and ashamed, but that was all. He was surrounded by Lu Jun, Gao Shun and Wei Yue. He dared not be honest, so he could only follow Lin Mo's instructions and start to receive the defeated army.
"Master-in-law, are you satisfied?" While Zhang Xiu and Zhao Rui were fighting, Lin Mo had already returned to Lu Bu's side.
"This is a beautiful thing. You destroyed hundreds of thousands of Yuan and Yuan's armies in one day, and now you can still use their people for your own use. I am sure that Qing and Ji will be defeated!"
Until this moment, Lu Bu's hanging mental arithmetic had completely come to an end. From luring Yuan Shang into a trap to killing Yuan Tan, and finally acting as a middleman to help the puppet Yuan Shang recover the rebel army, he followed his son-in-law's arrangements step by step. .
This feat, Lu Bu thinks, is probably better than that of Le Yi, who conquered more than 70 cities in Qi in one go, right?
As expected of my son-in-law.
The two northern states, the place he had longed for, were finally in his possession, and Lu Bu suddenly felt that everything seemed so unreal.
In fact, he never thought that one day he would grow to this extent. When he first entered Xuzhou, he just hoped to gain a foothold there, and becoming a prince was enough.
Who would have thought that I found a son-in-law by mistake and lived a cheating life from then on, in the Central Plains and the North Country?
Lu Bu's mood was actually very complicated.
"There are still hundreds of thousands of people in Yuan Tan's military camp. Do you think something will happen?" After a while, Lu Bu calmed down the excitement in his heart.
"Yuan Tan doesn't have much food and grass left, so he can't make a fuss. With the Xin brothers and Guo Tu here, and my father-in-law going together, nothing big will happen. What's great is that Yuan Shang will choose to be a bandit if he refuses to obey. "Lin Mo is very confident in this.
Lu Bu nodded and smiled lightly, "All this is like a dream."
"We haven't reached the point where we can relax yet. It will take several months to gather this army and stabilize it completely. In addition, now that Cao Cao has invaded Bingzhou in the west and Yuan Xi is in charge of Youzhou in the north, the internal situation of numerous aristocratic families also needs to be dealt with. We still have a long way to go.”
Lin Mo sighed and looked to the south uneasily, "What worries me the most is Anfeng. Even though we have stabilized the Northern Kingdom on the surface, we can't mobilize troops to help Anfeng in the war."
Lu Bu seemed to suddenly remember that Anfeng was still besieged by Cao Cao's people, but he was much more optimistic and said with a smile: "I believe in Wen Yuan, he has never let me down, just like your uncle."
Halfway through his words, Lu Bu's shining eyes suddenly dimmed, he sighed and murmured: "It would be great if Uncle Zhi were here."
Monthly pass, monthly pass, monthly pass!
