Boom~Boom~~~

The heavy drawbridge was slowly lowered, causing the sound of chains sliding down, and behind the open city gate was a group of bandits who had abandoned their weapons and surrendered.

They stood on both sides behind the gate, their heads bowed, and greeted the officers and soldiers into the city with trepidation, their eyes revealing fear and a hint of confusion, because they did not know what they were about to face.

Xu Huang led the elite to attack Lu Bu, leaving behind in the city all the old, weak, sick and disabled, as well as hungry people with yellow faces and thin muscles.

In the face of the frequent pressure from the official army under the city, the thieves in the city had already been confused, coupled with the heavy reward given by Lu Bu, naturally some people couldn't resist the temptation and chose to surrender in Kaicheng.

In fact, the thieves also knew in their hearts that even if they did not retreat, it would be impossible to stop this heroic army outside the city.

The city gate opened, and Wen Ji, who was leading the horse, carried the Fang Tian painting halberd on his shoulder, and walked in front with a swagger.

However, the scene in the city can only be described as depressed and cold, with collapsed houses, chaotic streets, and old people with sunken eyes due to hunger......

All of this indicates that the town is decaying and dying, gradually going to extinction.

Lu Bu rode on horseback, looking at the people along the way, the people on the way were like walking corpses, with no life on their faces, as if they were waiting to fend for themselves.

At this time, a little boy in sloppy clothes came out of nowhere, hugged Lu Bu's trouser legs, and begged for mercy: "Master, please give me something to eat, please!" My mother hasn't eaten in days, and if he doesn't eat anything else, he'll starve to death! ”

Seeing this situation, without waiting for Lu Bu to speak, a short and fat man standing next to Chi Su suddenly looked fierce, and directly shook the whip in his hand, and with a 'snap', he was heavily pumped on the little boy's back, and the hot feeling made him almost cry.

"Where did the little bastard dare to block Da Sima's way. The golden body of the Great Sima is also what your dirty hands can touch! The short and fat man scolded loudly, and the anger on his face seemed to have been poked in the sore spot.

His name is Feng Shen, and he is the head of the thieves who were left in the city by Xu Huang.

At the critical moment, he ordered someone to open the city gate, and he chose to surrender knowing the times.

Someone was blocking the way in front of him, Feng Shen wanted to behave well in front of Lu Bu so as to win Lu Bu's favor.

The little boy who was whipped did not let go, gritted his teeth and held on, and continued to beg Lu Bu.

Feng Shen was angry, for fear that Lu Bu would think that he couldn't even handle a little child, so he immediately summoned his subordinates, pointed at the little boy and scolded: "I see that you are really impatient, come on, pull this little bastard down for me and cut it down!" ”

The thief beside him obeyed the order and stepped forward to forcibly drag the little boy away.

"Captain Feng, why bother with the same child?" Lu Bu on horseback spoke, then waved his hand and motioned for the thieves to retreat.

Hearing Lu Bu's words, Feng Shen, who was promised to be made a lieutenant, immediately changed his face, nodded his head, pointed to the thin little boy, and replied viciously: "Da Sima, this kind of Diao people who block the road, if they don't come to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, they won't be able to remember for a long time." ”

Lu Bu just glanced at Feng Shen, and the latter closed his mouth very interestingly.

The grain looted in the city has been transported to the camps of Han Xian and Yang Feng, and there is very little left in the city.

Actually, that's pretty good. If it had been replaced by other ferocious thieves, it is estimated that the people in the city would have been slaughtered long ago as a reserve of meat.

This phenomenon is not uncommon in troubled times.

"Go and distribute some of the food in our army and distribute it to these people." Lu Bu ordered that since he had come here, there was no reason to watch the local people starve to death in front of his eyes.

Hearing this, Xiao Ji behind him hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him, he lowered his voice and whispered: "Lord, if we bring food to help these people, we may not be able to survive to defeat the thieves, it is better to ......"

"What's not as good as what? Watching them starve to death, or taking them to cook for meat? Without waiting for Xiao Ji to finish his words, Lu Bu turned around, his cold eyes seemed to be about to freeze Xiao Ji, and the latter was stunned to swallow back the words in his mouth.

"Don't forget, they are also my people! We fought everywhere and fought bloodily, just to restore peace in the world and ensure that the people of the Quartet lived in peace, instead of seeing death and not saving it, and abandoning it. ”

Lu Bu said loudly, this was the first time he had scolded Xiao Ji in front of everyone.

Xiao Ji lowered his head, feeling ashamed.

Reflect on it, in recent years, especially since he had an official position, he has only cared about the gains and losses in interests, so much so that he has discarded the morality in his heart.

Now Lu Bu's words have also made him sober up a lot.

Seeing that Xiao Ji was ashamed, Lu Bu pointed to the end, after all, Xiao Ji's merits on this road are obvious to everyone. Lu Bu didn't want him to lose face, it was too embarrassing.

Turning around, Lu Bu issued an order: "Li Feng, you are responsible for the relief of the people." ”

"Command!"

Li Feng clenched his fists and replied with great certainty.

"Sir, you are such a good person, I will definitely repay you in the future!" The little boy who followed Li Feng to receive the food turned around and gave Lu Bu a big smile.

"Then when you grow up, come to Chang'an to find me."

Looking at the boy's innocence, Lu Bu made a joke along the way.

Until a few years later, when the little boy who grew up stood in front of Lu Bu, Lu Bu couldn't remember the joke back then.

"Da Sima, true benevolence and righteousness!"

Witnessing this scene with their own eyes, many thieves thought so in their hearts.

When he came to the county government, Lu Bu sat in the hall, looking at the map of the area east of the river.

The mountains and rivers are all marked in detail and can be seen at a glance.

Lu Bu nodded secretly in his heart, if this person can be used for his own use and cultivated well, he will undoubtedly be a master of his own affairs.

"The general has a heart for talent?" The jokers in the hall took a sip of tea and laughed.

has been with Lu Bu for so many years, and Lu Bu's thoughts, he can almost guess seven, seven, eight, eight.

Lu Bu nodded unabashedly, as the saying goes, 'three armies are easy to obtain, but one general is hard to find'.

Naturally, the more talents, the better.

"It's just that I don't know if Hansheng and them can capture this person?" Lu Bu was not completely sure about this.

At this time, a report from the guards sounded outside the hall: "Lord, General Huang, they are back and are waiting outside." ”

Lu Bu immediately waved his hand and ordered: "Let them in." ”

Not long after, Huang Zhong, Chen Wei, and Ma Zhong, who were wearing armor, walked into the hall, and at the same time hugged their fists at Lu Bu, and said in unison: "The last general will meet the lord." ”

Lu Bu asked the three of them to excuse themselves and asked about the results of the battle.

Huang Zhong clenched his fists again and replied: "Lord, we have captured the thief general, and now we have been escorted to the outside of the mansion, and we can wait for the fate at any time." ”

Hearing this, Lu Bu clapped his hands and shouted, 'Okay', and immediately sent an order: "The thief will come in." ”
