The king's tent of the Xianbei camp. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Budugen sat back on a long chair covered with wolf skins, his face tired, his eyes as red as rabbits bloodshot.

He stayed up all night and thought a lot. Since when did the Xianbei people, who have always been invincible, begin to suffer repeated setbacks, and 130,000 sons travel, and now less than half of them are left.

Is it really wrong to go south?

Bu Dugen supported his arm on the seat, thought about his head with one hand, and rubbed the acupuncture points on both sides fiercely, he originally thought that with the siege equipment, he could easily take Yanmen Pass, but he thought that he would be desperately sniped back by the Han people again and again.

Bu Dugen couldn't understand why the Han people, who had always been cowardly, suddenly became so fierce and not afraid of death.

Especially the young man who appeared at dusk yesterday, the force was even more terrifying, if it weren't for the presence of Manhe'er, I'm afraid he would have died in Huangquan.

One person can break through the cavalry formation of thousands of soldiers!

How......

Brave, fierce, or invincible?

Budugen found that he could not find a suitable word to accurately describe the young man who held the halberd, and he felt a frustration in his heart that he had never felt before. Even if he was ambushed and almost cornered, he never felt like this now.

Budugen sighed weakly, the voice was so small, so small that only he could hear it, how good it would be if such a fierce general was under his own tent.

The curtain was lifted, and there were only a few people who could enter and leave the king's tent freely, and they could be counted on one hand.

The old man, who had been wearing sheepskin fur all the year round, walked in front of Budugen, his eyelids under the black felt hat were wrinkled, and the two eyeballs were wrapped in them, only a trace of a gap was revealed, and he said in a particularly kind manner: "Your Majesty, it's time to go."

Bu Dugen glanced at this old man with outstanding wisdom in the hearts of Xianbei people, but he didn't get up, his eyes were confused, as if he was asking Fu Tuhe, and as if he was asking himself: "For a Yanmen Pass, nearly 70,000 sons died in battle, is it worth it?" ”

Conquering Yanmen Pass and going south, directly taking 80,000 miles of rivers and mountains of the Han Dynasty, it is Fu Tuhe's lifelong dream.

Now listening to Bu Dugen's tone, it seems that he wants to retreat, how can Fu Tuhe let his hard work for so many years be ruined, so he stepped forward and persuaded: "Your Majesty, you should understand that war is like this, there is life, and some people die. My Xianbei Erlang galloped across the grassland, but he was not good at attacking the city, and it was inevitable that there would be such a large casualty. Once the Yanmen Pass is broken, there is no barrier to my pass, and the Han people will have it at their fingertips. ”

Bu Dugen was silent, Fu Tuhe was reasonable, he also understood, it was not his dream to knock south, but only in the battle of Yanmen Pass, he lost more than 60,000 soldiers, if there is really a day to take the Han people, there will be a few people left around him.

Budu didn't open his mouth, and Fu Tuhe said again: "Why can the Han people enjoy the fertile land, sit on a large amount of gold, salt, iron, and rich resources, while I, the Xianbei people, will live in the grassland for generations, barren and desolate?" ”

"So, for the sake of the future of the Xianbei people, and for the sake of those dead soldiers, please be sure to capture Yanmen Pass, please!" Fu Tuhe took off his felt hat and bowed heavily to his steps.

When he saw the old man's gray hair, Budugen stood up from the seat and helped the old man's body, the confusion in his eyes faded, and he regained a new look. Budugen nodded at Fu Tuhe, with a huge confidence in his tone, and said forcefully: "This king understands." ”

"Newspaper~"

A loud and high-pitched announcement sounded outside the tent.

Budugen tidied up his shirt slightly, maintaining the majesty of a king, and said in a deep voice: "Come in." ”

Hearing Bu Dugen's call, the spy outside the tent immediately entered the station and reported on one knee: "King, just now I went to spy on the enemy situation at Yanmen Pass, but I found that all the banners of the Han people on the city were gone, and there were no defenders when the city gate was opened. I don't know why, so I'm here to report to the king. ”

After Bu Dugen learned the news, his first reaction was: Could it be that the Han people have withdrawn?

However, Bu Dugen quickly rejected this naïve idea, Zhang Zhong was a famous border general, and his temperament was stubborn, and it was impossible to evacuate so easily.

So what does he mean by that?

Budugen thought about countless possibilities in his mind, but he still couldn't find the answer he wanted.

As a wise man, Fu Tuhe was also a little unpredictable for a while, to say that Zhang Zhong deliberately let them into the city, let alone him, even a three-year-old child would not believe it.

Fu Tuhe put the felt hat back on his head, and said to Bu Dugen: "Your Majesty, there must be a demon when things go wrong, so it's better for the old man to go with you to take a look." ”

Budugen nodded, feeling that what Fu Tuhe said was very reasonable, rather than thinking about it slowly here, it was better to go and find out in person.

Then he ordered to gather troops and horses and march to Yanmen Pass again.

In less than an hour, the 70,000 troops of the Xianbei people arrived outside the Yanmen Pass, and stopped their march at a position half a mile away from the Yanmen Pass.

As reported by the rebuke, there is not a single defender on the head of the city, nor a banner of the Han people, through the collapsed city gate, a large amount of flying dust can be vaguely seen in the pass.

Could it be that there is really an ambush in this?

Budugen brushed his thick beard braids, and thought about it with a low brow.

At this time, two figures appeared on the head of the city, an old man in a brocade robe, and a tall young man in clean clothes.

Neither of them was wearing military uniforms, but Bu Dugen still recognized them at a glance, Zhang Zhong, the general of Zhenbei, and the unknown young general who broke the formation alone yesterday afternoon.

Zhang Zhong and Lu Bu didn't seem to pay attention to the tens of thousands of Xianbei soldiers who had been closed, and walked leisurely to a desk that had already been placed, and knelt down face to face.

On the table was a pot of wine, a plate of meat, and a few plates of cooked vegetables that were still warm.

Zhang Zhong and Lu Bu first made a polite exchange between them, and only after greeting each other did they pick up the chopsticks, pick up the small dishes on the plate, and then put them in their mouths in front of everyone, sipping a small sip of wine, and a happy expression of enjoyment appeared on their faces.

The 70,000 Xianbei soldiers outside the gate are broken in their hearts at the moment, these two guys are really eating and drinking, and now they are fighting, hey, please respect the next occasion, okay!

Bu Dugen was also bottomless in his heart, looking at Zhang Zhong and Lu Bu who were like no one around, and fell into deep thought, the two of them must not be crazy, so what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd!

On the city tower, Lu Bu sandwiched chopsticks and meat for Zhang Yi, the smile on his face doubled, but he blamed himself in his mouth: "It's really undeserved to let you take the risk yourself, general." ”

There are only more than 1,000 soldiers left in Yanmen Pass, and it is definitely impossible to defend it, so it is better to have a psychological game with the Xianbei people.

For this reason, Lu Bu specially invited the old general to sing this song of the empty city, and with Zhang Zhong personally pressing the formation, his credibility naturally improved a lot.

What Lu Bu gambled on was that Bu Dugen did not dare to enter the city.

Not only that, Lu Bu also ordered dozens of horsemen to go in all directions in the county, spreading news along the way, falsely claiming that Zhang Zhong of Yanmen Pass was killed in battle, leaving only the four sons of the Yan family still defending. Once Zhang Yi, who is lurking, learns the news, he will definitely rush to Yanmen Pass, at that time, he will not only be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman, but also save Yan Xin's life, so as to marry the Yan family.

For Zhang Zhong, as long as he can keep Yanmen Pass and prevent the Xianbei people from going south, it is nothing to get involved in danger.

Zhang Zhong's face was also full of smiles, although he had not been in contact with Lu Bu for a long time, he had special trust in Lu Bu, and was extremely optimistic about this young offspring, and asked softly: "Feng Xian, you are also proficient in the art of war?" ”

The smile on Lu Bu's face did not decrease, he took the wine bottle and saluted the old general, and while holding the wine bottle with his hand, he said: "I just read two ancient books, and I don't dare to get an axe in front of the general." ”

The smile on Zhang Zhong's face was even stronger, and the wine bottle in his hand touched Lu Bu's, and said with a smile: "Fengxian, you are too humble, the empty city plan is definitely not a person with great courage, and you will definitely not dare to use it." ”

Lu Bu shook his head slightly, picked up the wine jug and added another glass to the old general, "General, you are wrong, I only hope that among the Xianbei people, there can be one or two smart people." Otherwise, this empty city plan will be useless. ”

Zhang Zhong deeply believes that the empty city plan uses people's psychological contradictions, and the smarter the person, the easier it is to fall into it.

Xianbei people were separated by half a mile outside the gate, so naturally they couldn't hear the conversation between the two, but they only saw the smiles on their faces from the beginning, and they laughed until now, and they didn't know the truth, and they thought that the two were chatting very happily.

Budugen's brow furrowed, almost twisted into a straight line. Since the Xianbei army arrived at Yanmen Pass, Zhang Zhong has never sent a unit out of the pass to attack the camp, which shows that he is cautious in using his troops, even if he defends the city to the death every time, he has never used a dangerous move.

Zhang Zhong used the soldiers, and what he asked for was the word 'stability'.

So this time, Budugen believes that there will be no exception either.

At this moment, Lu Bu got up and looked at Budugen in the distance, and invited loudly: "I heard that King Shao has always been arrogant, why don't you come up and have a drink?" ”

Lu Bu's voice was extremely loud, and even the soldiers at the back of the Xianbei army listened to it word for word.

Bu Dugen's face changed greatly, and it was as black as the bottom of the pot in an instant, and Lu Bu's seemingly warm 'invitation' undoubtedly gave him a big problem. When it comes to drinking alone, Bu Dugen is naturally not afraid, but Lu Bu's words are clearly trying to lure him into the city.

If you don't go, you may be ridiculed and criticized in the future; If you go, you will fall into Lu Bu's arms again.

To go, or not to go?

Budugen was in a dilemma for a while.

And in a place not far from the Yanmen Gate Tower, Cao Xing, who heard Lu Bu's words, lowered his voice and exclaimed: "Is this crazy, boss? He actually took the initiative to invite the Xianbei people into the city, and as soon as they came in, we were all going to suffer! ”

The faces of the people around him were also not very good-looking, obviously not understanding why Lu Bu would take the initiative to invite Bu Dugen into the city. If it was Lu Bu who took the initiative to rebel, they would not believe it if they were killed.

"The art of war has clouds, 'virtual is real, real is virtual, soldiers are impermanent, showing weakness and bullying the strong!' Sometimes, the more you show weakness to others, the more they don't believe it, Lu Fengxian is deliberately deceiving him. Yan Xin explained to everyone with a smile, recalling Lu Bu's expression and movements last night, the corners of his mouth were tilted, as if he had found a rare treasure, and said: "Interesting, interesting." ”

Guan Wai Bu Dugen's actions exceeded the expectations of Lu Bu and others.

I saw Budugen hitting the horse forward, and the 70,000 soldiers behind him followed slowly forward, and the horses' hooves stepped on the ground together, like thunder.

The old general was shocked and wanted to get up.

Lu Bu grabbed the old general's wrist with his right hand, his face remained unchanged, but his heart was already full of murderous intent, and he picked up the wine jug with his left hand to add wine to the old general, and the wine bottle overflowed, wetting the entire desk.

Cao Xing and the others swallowed their dry throats with difficulty, clenching the weapons in their hands.

When he walked a hundred meters outside the pass, Bu Dugen reined in the horse rope without warning, he had just been secretly watching Lu Bu's expression change, but found that Lu Bu's face was not only not panic and fear, but even hidden a trace of joy,

It seems that there is really an ambush in the gate!

Bu Dugen had already settled down at this time, and sneered in his heart at the same time: Is it really easy to deceive this king if he is a three-year-old child?

After Budugen stopped his marching pace, he asked Lu Bu loudly: "Close the young general, do you dare to report your name?" ”

Lu Bu's face deliberately showed a bit of disappointment, and he replied loudly: "Wuyuan Lu Bu, Lu Feng is also first!" ”

Seeing Lu Bu's inadvertent disappointment, Bu Dugen was even more proud in his heart, this king has been fighting for so many years, how can he not see through your little trick.

In addition to being happy, Bu Dugen had a love for Lu Bu again, so he said in front of everyone: "Jun's bravery is no less than General Li Guang when he was Emperor Wu, and he can be described as the name of 'General Fei', how about it be attributed to the command of this king?" ”

"Lu Bu is just a horseman, he can't be called 'General Fei', a certain person sincerely invites King Shao to go to the city to drink, is it not the dignified King Xianbei, don't dare?" Lu Bu's voice ridiculed, and Bu Dugen recruited him in public, just to take the opportunity to separate the relationship between Lu Bu and Zhang Zhong, and Lu Bu simply returned him in public.

As soon as Bu Dugen wanted to speak, he was grabbed by Fu Tuhe on the side and shook his head gently.

At first, Fu Tuhe felt that it was nothing, but when he thought about it carefully, why did a group of soldiers suddenly come to the rescue when Yanmen Pass was in danger again and again, and every time it was just so timely, it was as if it was deliberately arranged.

Now that I think about it, I was really careless at the beginning. There were 70,000 soldiers in total, and in addition to those killed and captured, there should be at least about 50,000 troops. But no more than 30,000 people have died here, so where are the remaining 20,000? With Zhang Zhong's character, it is impossible not to deploy troops to defend it, and he must have waited for the rabbits to ambush in the pass, waiting for them to enter the pass, so as to annihilate them in one fell swoop.

Fu Tuhe was very frightened after thinking about it, and it seemed that he still underestimated the Han people.

Even if there was no reminder from Fu Tuhe, Bu Dugen would not rush into the customs, and he determined that there were ambushes hidden in the pass.

In the face of Lu Bu's ridicule, Bu Dugen could only suppress the anger in his heart and said: "This king has been sick for the past few days and can't drink, and he will definitely take you to my royal court to drink next time!" ”

After speaking, Bu Dugen turned his horse head and led the 70,000 troops to evacuate back from Yanmen Pass.

Looking at the Xianbei army walking away, the old general finally showed a real smile of relief on his face, touched his back that was already sweaty, and stood up with Lu Bu's support, the old man still had palpitations, "When I just walked forward, the old man almost didn't hold back, but fortunately, you stopped me in time." ”

Lu Bu took several deep breaths in a row, the feeling of holding his life in the hands of others and worrying about it everywhere was indeed not very comfortable.

The next day, Lu Bu was the only one left on the city tower to drink.

On the evening of the third day, a force of more than 20,000 people finally arrived at the city south of Yanmen Pass.
