Chapter 187 Boss Cao has the most kites [Subscribe]

"Say it quickly."

Bai Ke got off the couch in a hurry and put on his clothes first.

"First, let's wait here for Qingyu to come..."

Before Cao Cao finished speaking, Bai Ke shook his head almost pleadingly.

"Or I will leave first and wait for Qingyu to come. You let her stay and I will come back. The three of us can take the opportunity to make things clear together. By then, it will be too late for her to deny it." Cao Cao said again.

Bai Ke was shocked and said, "Why did you make everything clear? Did you... hide it from Qingyu first?"

"Yes, go find her and block her in the house, then we won't be discovered here."

Bai Ke said hello, and quickly put on her clothes, put on an outer robe, opened the door and left.

Choose the third option...

Cao Cao laughed secretly.

He got up, found a scroll of bamboo slips in the room, and began to read it leisurely.

Bai Ke came to Bian Mei's yard and found that the lights were indeed on in the house.

Bian Mei was about to go out when she saw Bai Ke coming over first. She said, "I just heard some noises. It seemed to come from Master's wife's room?"

Bai Ke said awkwardly: "I thought of a dance and couldn't help but dance for a while."

"What dance is this? Master's wife still has to practice it late at night?" Bian Mei asked.

Bai Ke didn't know how to answer, so she changed the subject: "Qingyu, why are you going out so late?"

"I heard the noise and wanted to go check on Master's wife," said Bian Mei.

Bai Ke thought to himself that it was fortunate that he arrived first, as the governor's plan was a good one.

She thought of the crime scene in her house. If she went back, she was afraid that there would be more trouble. She said hurriedly, "I'll come over. I'll stay at your place tonight."

After they exchanged words, they climbed onto the couch and prepared to go to sleep.

Bai Ke was quite sleepy and fell asleep soon.

Bian Mei also felt tired and fell asleep with her eyes closed.

Next door, Cao Cao got up, put on his outer robe, climbed over the wall and went to the next room.

When it comes to tactics, the two women can't catch up with him even if they try their best.

At that time, he heard Bian Mei stand up, and took advantage of the situation to let Bai Ke go to that room on his own initiative.

Guessing the traces left in the house, Bai Ke didn't dare to come back.

Otherwise, if Bian Mei said she wanted to come over, she wouldn't be able to deal with it.

Cao Cao tricked the two women into getting together and stayed at his own home, preparing to steal his concubine.

He was about to enter the house, but he stopped and looked to the west.

In several houses outside the Cao Mansion, lived four or five people including Cai Yong, Jia Xu, and Zhang Huai, who was a guest official.

At Jia Xu's residence, he was still working and sending and receiving messages until nearly midnight.

Some people were walking quickly towards the inner house.

She was a close follower of Bian Mei, a woman with a cold face, who served under Qingbi Li.

Obviously something unexpected happened.

The people of Qingbi Li and the Yanzhou intelligence system controlled by Jia Xu all received the news.

In a blink of an eye, Jia Xu also sent someone to the inner house to inform that he had something to consult Cao Cao.

Cao Cao sighed. It was a pity that he didn't get to seize the opportunity and enjoy himself in time.

He turned around and walked towards the front house.

Bian Mei also received the news and rushed to the front house.

study.

The lights were bright, and Jia Xu, Guo Jia, and Xun You were all there.

At present, the core civil service group of Cao Ying, Dong Zhao and Cheng Yu, remain in Nanyang to stabilize the situation.

Cao Cao planned to first appoint Dong Zhao as the prefect of Nanyang County.

Cheng Yu is currently equivalent to a diplomat. He travels all over the world, makes friends with distant countries and attacks nearby ones, thus winning time and space for Cao's camp.

Xi Zhicai was not in Changyi either. His whereabouts were related to Cao Cao's next arrangements, so his itinerary was kept secret.

"Something happened in Xuzhou!"

"I just received news that Yuan Shu launched an offensive against Lu Bu."

"Should we move our Yanzhou troops? The governor needs to make the decision immediately."

Jia Xu, Guo Jia and others analyzed the situation in Xuzhou in turn.

Xuzhou and Yanzhou had been at war for more than a year. The state of Pengcheng, located to the west of Xuzhou and adjacent to Yanzhou and Yuzhou, had fallen into the hands of Cao's army.

Part of the Langya County to the north was also occupied by Huang Zhong's troops.

After Lu Bu entered Xuzhou, he took charge of Xia Pi City in the center of Xuzhou.

The composition of Lu Bu's current troops is quite complex, including the Bingzhou Army and the Liangzhou Army that followed him in the early days.

There were also some of the troops obtained after the occupation of Xuzhou.

However, he successively rebelled against his two adoptive fathers, Ding Yuan and Dong Zhuo, and the troops from Bingzhou and Liangzhou, and few people were willing to follow him.

Lu Bu himself was not loyal and kept rebelling.

The same goes for subordinates, only a handful of them are loyal.

Lu Bu and Yuan Shu fought for Xuzhou.

Yuan Shu's advisers saw Lu Bu's weakness and offered a plan, which was to win over Lu Bu's people.

Yuan Shu acted in secret and successfully instigated a general under Lu Bu to rebel.

Tonight is the time to start.

Xuzhou, Xia Pi City!

In the middle of the night, Lu Bu suddenly heard a strange noise.

He had a profound spiritual practice, and the warnings he received on the spiritual level were extremely mysterious. He immediately stood up from the couch and listened attentively.

Next to him was Zhen Xin, who opened her eyes sleepily, propped herself up with one arm, and asked, "Fengxian, what's wrong?"

"There are shouts and screams!" Lu Bu said solemnly.

Xia Pi, where he was located, was the capital of Xuzhou, with high city walls and thick walls.

It's not easy for outsiders to come in.

Lu Bu's expression changed slightly, and he quickly realized that someone might have betrayed him and entered Xia Pi from the inside to attack him!

At this moment in Xia Pi City, there was a troop of soldiers marching on the street, heading straight for Lu Bu's mansion.

The heavy sound of horse hooves shook the long street.

Leading the group was a general, full of murderous intent.

Not long after Lu Bu heard the noise, the other party had arrived outside his mansion at a very fast speed.

The sound of killing suddenly arose.

The personal soldiers in Lu Bu's mansion fought with the attacking troops, and the clash of weapons was as dense as rain.

Fortunately, Xia Pi was a fortified city, and even the mansion where Lu Bu lived was like an inner city with high outer walls.

It would be difficult for the other party to attack at once.

Lu Bu didn't know who was rebelling, nor who was the enemy, and his wives, concubines and children were all in the house.

He first gathered his wives, concubines, and children who were in dishevel. The outer wall near the toilet in the inner house was the lowest. Lu Bu sent his wife and daughter out and temporarily hid them in another place in the city.

At this time, there was chaos in Xia Pi City, with shouts and cries of killing everywhere.

After Lu Bu settled his wife and daughter, he came out alone, let out a long roar, and was filled with murderous intent.

In the darkness of the night, Lu Bu was like a tiger descending from a mountain, as fast as lightning, taking every step ten feet as he headed toward the outside of the city.

Outside the city was stationed his direct subordinate, the Xianzhen Camp led by Governor Gao Shun.

They heard Lu Bu's thunderous roar and discovered something had happened in the city. They were leading people into the city to meet up with Lu Bu.

The Xianzhen Camp led by Gao Shun was the most elite force under Lu Bu. It was said to have a thousand men, but in reality there were only about 700 of them.

Although they are few in number, they are the old Bingzhou army that followed Lu Bu in fighting in the north and south. They are truly brave soldiers who have experienced many battles and are one of the top combat forces in the world.

Gao Shun and Lu Bu were fellow villagers. Gao Shun was brave and strict in military discipline.

Soldiers in the Han Dynasty generally loved to drink, and many of them made mistakes due to drinking, such as the round-eyed thief Lao Zhang, who made the same mistake again and again.

Gao Shun, however, never drank a drop of alcohol.

This man's communication skills are almost zero, and he rarely comes into contact with other generals under Lu Bu.

Bribes and solicitations from outside forces could not get close to him.

Gao Shun devoted himself to commanding the army, eating and living with the soldiers, and fighting and killing the enemy with all his might.

Therefore, the more than 700 people in the Xianzhen Camp under his command were able to advance and retreat in unison, obey orders and fight with great strength.

The Xianzhen Camp also used up all of Lu Bu's resources, including the Youzhou horses that Zhen Xin had asked for from Zhen's family, and gave them all to the Xianzhen Camp. They could ride fast on horses, and when they dismounted, they were heavy infantry, well-equipped.

Under the leadership of Gao Shun, this trap camp was invincible.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, who were the bravest of the three armies, were all defeated by the Xianzhen Camp and Gao Shun, both in history and in this world.

With Gao Shun's Xianzhen Camp as the vanguard, Lu Bu fought his way from the north of Xuzhou to Xiapi and snatched Xuzhou from Liu Bei.

At this time, Lu Bu and Gao Shun, who had entered the city, joined forces with the Xianzhen Camp.

"General, has something happened in the city?"

Gao Shun was of sturdy build, but his temperament and dress were as simple as an old farmer, and the wrinkles on his face were as sharp as knife cuts, making him look much older than his actual age.

His military training was second only to Lu Bu, and the purity of the military power he gathered was unmatched among thousands of troops.

He called Lu Bu a general, and it was Cao Cao who instigated the emperor to issue an imperial decree to confer the title of general on him.

"There is a rebellion in the city, but we are not sure who it is."

Lu Bu said angrily: "Follow me and fight back. Let's see who is so bold!"

A group of people rode their horses at full speed.

Gao Shun chased after Lu Bu and said, "The one who dared to rebel against the general must be one of the generals who led the troops. Who would dare to rebel without troops? General, do you have any clues?"

Lu Bu said gloomily, "Amid the shouting and killing of those who were attacking my residence, I heard... it seemed like there were voices from Hanoi."

Gao Shun said: "That's Hao Meng, his people are all from Hanoi."

Hao Meng was one of the eight generals under Lu Bu and was born in Hanoi.

It was indeed Hao Meng who led people to attack Lu Bu's mansion in the middle of the night.

He rebelled against Lu Bu under the instigation of Yuan Shu and attacked in the middle of the night.

However, Hao Meng regretted it after he took action.

According to the agreement, Yuan Shu would also send a troop of troops over, and the two sides would cooperate to capture Xia Pi.

He opened the South Gate of Xia Pi where he was stationed, intending to lead Yuan Shu's troops into the city to defeat Lu Bu.

But for unknown reasons, Yuan Shu's troops did not appear in Xia Pi as agreed.

Hao Meng had the arrow on the string and had to shoot.

He could only take advantage of the situation and lead his troops to attack Lu Bu's residence.

At this time, seeing that he had failed to capture Lu's mansion, Lu Bu instead led his men to fight back from outside.

Gao Shun led the Xianzhen Camp to rush to the front.

Hao Meng did not have the support of Yuan Shu's troops, and when he saw Lu Bu and Gao Shun, he was frightened and filled with regret.

He turned his horse and ran away.

However, he had a general named Cao Xing by his side.

If he ran with Hao Meng, he would never be able to escape the pursuit of Lu Bu and Gao Shun, and would only end up dead.

Cao Xing suddenly became murderous and drew his sword beside Hao Meng, cutting off one of Hao Meng's arms.

Hao Meng screamed and fell off his horse, and his troops were defeated by Gao Shun who rushed up.

Gao Shun rode his horse and captured Hao Meng, who had his arm broken, alive.

This mutiny came quickly and went away quickly.

It looks more like Hao Meng's foolish behavior of overestimating his own capabilities.

It was settled in the middle of the night.

After Hao Meng was captured, he started cursing, but his target was Yuan Shu.

If the agreed troops don't come, otherwise we can seize Xia Pi and accomplish great things.

Hao Meng, Lu Bu and others didn't know.

Behind this mutiny was Yanzhou's arrangement, which interfered with the change of the situation.

Yuan Shu, under Lu Bu's command, instigated Hao Meng to rebel.

They started taking action since the Luoyang period. Cao Cao and Jia Xu, who were targeting Lu Bu, also planted more than one nail under Lu Bu's command!
Lu Bu personally chopped off Hao Meng's head and asked Cao Xing about the cause of the incident.

Cao Xing replied: "Hao Meng was instigated by Yuan Shu to rebel."

Lu Bu asked again: "Who else is in the conspiracy?"

Cao Xing: “It was agreed that Yuan Shu’s troops would sneak to Xia Pi, and Hao Meng would open the city to welcome them.

But Yuan Shu's troops did not arrive."

Lu Bu continued to investigate and found out that the reason Yuan Shu's men did not come was because another general under his command, Wei Xu, who was also his relative, stopped Yuan Shu's troops from sneaking into Xia Pi in time.

Wei Xu was stationed in another city outside Xia Pi.

Last night when he was leading his troops on patrol, he discovered Yuan Shu's troops trying to sneak into Xia Pi.

Wei Xu immediately sounded the alarm.

Yuan Shu's men realized that their whereabouts had been exposed and that it was impossible for them to accomplish their plan, so they retreated and destroyed Hao Meng's rebellion.

Lu Bu couldn't help but praise Wei Xu's performance.

Including Cao Xing, who rebelled against Hao Meng on the battlefield, all were rewarded.

Cao Xing took over the remaining troops of Hao Meng and was promoted to a higher rank.

On the night of the incident in Xuzhou, Yanzhou received the news early on.

Cao Cao had more than one "kite" spy under Lu Bu's command. It was actually he who had Yuan Shu's troops exposed last night, thus destroying Yuan Shu's plan to capture Xia Pi.

Keeping Lu Bu now can balance the situation.

Cao Cao issued an order: "Since Xuzhou has changed, we should also make some moves in Yanzhou, and let Taishi Ci's troops hiding in Yuzhou advance according to the plan."

As daybreak approached, Cao Cao returned to his inner residence.

He was still only wearing an outer robe and had been busy all night.

Bian Mei also followed him and prepared to return to her own courtyard, but she found that Cao Cao was walking side by side with her, as if he was going to her room together.
