"Da da da da!"

The three thousand gold cavalry of the guards rushed into the city like the wind swept the fallen leaves, and the sound of iron hooves piercing the holes of the midnight silence.

At the foot of the city of Jiwu, thousands of defenders woke up like dreams and rushed up to the city tower. They hurriedly put on bows and strings, but the suspension bridge was lost. The iron cavalry entered the city and was powerless to turn the sky.

"Swoosh swish swish!"

The arrows break through the sky like rain, and the sound of horse hooves is intimidating.

The soldiers of the defenders on the city were restless and frightened. Most of the arrows shot from high and fell to nothing. However, they had to bite the bullet and shoot arrows from the small school of the defenders.

In the city, Li Li rode the King of Jinniu and followed the middle-aged scholar's escape. Li Zhi, the commander of the Jinniu Guard, rode the dragon-scale bull beast and followed Li Li closely behind him. The chains on his wrist flew out from time to time, harvesting the lives of the enemy who could not dodge.

Under the leadership of Dian Wei, the Iron Cavalry of the Jinqiu guards were scattered and slashed the defenders and soldiers while running. After sweeping the defenders at the city gate, nearly a thousand cavalry, led by Tietuo, turned over and dismounted, slashed the city tower on foot, and tried to seize the city head. Tiexiao also led the thousand cavalry of the headquarters to dismount and fight, climbed the city tower from the other side, forming a cross-strike with Tietuo, and completely eliminated the defenders on the city head. Only Dian Wei and a team of thousands of people continued to chase and kill the panicked and fleeing defenders, thus dismantling the few fighting spirits left by the defenders in the Meiwu army.

"Stop, you can't escape!" Li Li rode the King of Jinniu and followed the middle-aged scholar through the pavilion and water pavilion. Several times he wanted to take off the iron-feeded bow on the side of the golden beast's back and shot the scribe, but for some reason he did not do this, but shouted from time to time to scare the middle-aged scholar.

After wandering around the winding waterside corridor for a while, the middle-aged scholar turned over and dismounted. He ran quickly into a remote and quiet attic, and then disappeared.

"roar!"

Li Li chased to the attic and flew to the ground, holding a golden sword in his hand and walked into the dark and dull hall of the attic. The King of Golden Beasts followed him, and Li Zhi quietly protected him.

"Li Li, we finally meet. Don't rush to do something. I have no malice to lead you here. I just want to talk to you alone." The voice of the middle-aged scribe came from the dark hall.

In an instant, Li Li quickly locked in the middle-aged scholar's hiding place and found that he was sitting on the left side of the lobby and had no way to hide. At the same time, Li Zhi, who was following Li Li, flashed his body, and in the blink of an eye, he reached behind the middle-aged scholar, and then shook his wrist. The chain flew out in an uproar, entangling the middle-aged scholar's neck.

"Stop, Li Zhi, let's do it slowly!" After Li Li adapted to the dark light, he immediately stopped Li Zhi's actions. The middle-aged scholar was already strangled by Li Zhi's neck, struggled violently, and screamed in panic.

"Pick the light!" As Li Li finished speaking, Li Zhi relaxed the chains wrapped around the middle-aged scholar's neck, then took out the fire break and lit up the oil lamp on the wall behind him.

"suddenly---"

As the faint fire of the oil lamp flashed a few times in the breeze and gradually stabilized, there was finally a bright light in the lobby.

"Who are you? You look kind-looking. Have we seen him somewhere before?" Li Li put down his big knife casually and walked calmly to the middle-aged scholar and sat down. He stared at him and asked in a deep voice.

"Cough cough cough!" The middle-aged scholar reached out and pulled the heavy chain around his neck, coughed violently, and then smiled bitterly: "Li Li, don't say these useless things, let your subordinates release me soon. Otherwise, I will be strangled to death by him!"

Seeing the tone of the middle-aged scholar's speech, Li Li became more and more curious when he saw that the middle-aged scholar was talking. He waved his hand and signaled Li Zhi to take back the chains, chuckled and said, "You are a very personality. You are not a friend and I, but a hostile relationship, you are not a polite at all. Hahaha!"

"Do I need to be polite to talk to you?" After the chains around the middle-aged scholar's neck were taken away, he rolled his eyes in anger.

"Uh, why do you say this? Do I know you very well?" Li Li asked with a smile.

"Hmph! You, you've always thought about conspiracy and tricks to frame others all day long. I've been by Wang Yun for more than half a year. Haven't you heard of my name? Don't deny it. There are detailed works and spy lines you arranged everywhere in Chang'an City. What can you hide from you?" The middle-aged scholar looked at Li Li angrily and said.

Li Li was shocked when he heard this and pondered: "You are the person around Wang Yun. You have only been in Chang'an City for half a month. Are you Chen,,,,,,?"

"Okay, pretending to be quite like a person, pretending to be false and pretending." The middle-aged scholar interrupted Li Li impatiently, then his expression changed, and he asked softly: "How are Yu'er doing now? You haven't bullied her?"

"You are Chen Gongtai Chen!" Li Li said loudly in surprise.

The middle-aged scholar turned his head and said in an extremely resentful tone: "You, you are so noble that you forget things. I, Chen Gong, is this unbearable? You can think about it for a long time before you can remember it?"

"Hahaha!" Li Li laughed loudly when he heard this, and dissatisfied with Chen Gong's resentment. He stood up and grabbed Chen Gong's arm, and said seriously: "Brother-in-law, you are the dragon but the tail, it is really not easy to find you! It's been a year since I sent people to look for you everywhere, but there was no news about you. I didn't expect to meet you here tonight. You said why don't you come to Chang'an to sit in my mansion? Is my Longxiang Li Mansion a dragon pond or a tiger's den? You just don't like me so much? If you don't want to see me, just

Forget it, but my mother-in-law and sister-in-law, as well as my little nephew and niece, you should come and have a look? They are all your close relatives, one is your biological mother, the other is your wife, and your children. Also, your own sister Yu'er, how difficult it is for her to be able to support the whole family in recent years, but a girl insisted on taking on the burden of supporting the whole family. A year ago, when I was in Zhongmu County, I saw many rascals staying at your doorstep all day, coveting Yu'er's beauty, so I brought your whole family and young to Xiliang."

After talking nonsense, although Li Li's tone was a little stiff and even accusing, he kept a smile on his face.

Li Li's contradictory expression surprised Chen Gong, and he suddenly became more aware of Li Li. Anyone who heard Li Li's words would think that this was accusing him of Chen Gong and complaining that he was irresponsible. The superiors were unfilial to the elderly and the inferiors were sorry for his wife and children. But after Chen Gong looked at the meaningful smile on Li Li's face, he felt something inexplicably, knowing that Li Li's words were not malicious, but a way to persuade others to be relieved in disguise.

However, most people still can’t really understand this way of persuading people, and they will become more and more ashamed.

Obviously, Chen Gong was not an ordinary person. So he smiled gratefully to Li Li. Then, he pushed Li Li's hands away and said with a smile: "Okay, you are asking me for credit! With your General of the Cavalry to take care of the whole family for me, what's wrong with me?"

While speaking, Chen Gong paused and then said seriously: "To be honest, I really should thank you very much. If you didn't have you helped me with timely help, I'm afraid that even if they could save their lives, they would have been on the streets long ago, hunger and cold, and became refugees. I remember this kindness and virtue in this life. I will never forget it. Please accept the general of the cavalry and worship me Chen Gong!"

"Uh, no, no!" Li Li quickly stood up and grabbed Chen Gong, then pressed him on his seat, and said with a smile: "Brother, don't worry about it. You and me are now a family. I am your brother-in-law, and taking care of my mother-in-law and my brother's family is a matter of thanks. To be honest, I heard that you have arrived in Chang'an before, but I had some entanglement with that Wang Yun, so I have never been able to meet with my brother. However, the friendship between my brothers will not be reduced by half. Instead, I will be blessed by God and will meet tonight. This is a fate given by God, an unexpected joy! Hahaha---"

"You are so good at speaking with your mouth. Could it be that my sister follows you wholeheartedly? Hahaha!" Chen Gong laughed.

Li Li smiled and said, "Brother-in-law has been awarded. Yu'er followed me. That was a blessing I have cultivated for several lifetimes, and it was not a trick from sweet words. We brothers can just say this in private. If Yu'er hears it, then I will suffer!"

Chen Gong laughed knowingly when he heard this. After a while, he said with a solemn expression: "Stop talking about it. Wenchang, I led you here but there was something big about it. Tonight I also came to urge Lu Bu to lead his army to rescue Chang'an by Wang Yun. Half an hour ago, I insisted on persuade Lu Bu to lead his army to Chang'an City, and I stayed here just to protect Mei Wu, so as not to set fire to this rare granary by Lu Bu in anger. Before you led your army to attack the city, I was thinking about how to hand over Mei Wu to you. Now, you have to lead your troops in. In this way, I can follow Lu Bu south to Jingxiang and go to the Central Plains to work hard."

"Uh, brother is leaving?" Li Li looked at Chen Gong in shock and said anxiously: "Why do you want to follow Lu Bu to go south? In my eyes, I am not as good as Lu Fengxian?"

"Wenchang, don't worry, this is the matter for you, brother, to discuss with you next. But it's important. Please ask Wenchang to retreat to the left and right to avoid any trouble." After Chen Gong finished speaking, he looked at Li Zhi from the corner of his eyes.

"Brother is too worried, there are no outsiders here." Li Li said seriously. However, when he looked at Chen Gong's stubborn expression, he shook his head helplessly, and then said to Li Zhi: "You go outside the door and guard no one should be allowed to approach the lobby. Once you find someone peeking, kill it immediately."

"No, I will accept the order." Li Zhi bowed to answer the order with a calm expression, and then quickly flashed outside the lobby door.

"This general is Li Zhi, the 'flying general' who rescued Cai Zhonglang from under Lu Bu's nose outside Zhengyang Gate, and is rare in the world!" Chen Gong looked at Li Zhi's departure back and said in amazement.

Li Li smiled and nodded in agreement, then leaned down to listen to Chen Gong telling his true intentions.

After Chen Gong fully revealed his plans, Li Li narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, then pondered: "Do you brother insist on doing this? In my opinion, Lu Bu is definitely not a person who accomplished great things. If you follow him south this time, it will be difficult for you to achieve what you said. However, the situation in Xiliang is just as the brother said. It is not advisable to engage in large wars in the past two or three years. It requires a period of rest. Otherwise, even if the Xiliang army is brave and good at fighting, it will not become a climate if it loses the stable supply of food and grass, and it will not become a major event in the end."

Chen Gong nodded firmly and said, "Wenchang, I will not hide it from you. Although Lu Bu is reckless, he has a prominent reputation and is extremely brave. If you have any brother who has assisted him from the side, you will surely achieve great achievements in the Central Plains. Your brother's intentions have been decided, so Wenchang doesn't have to persuade you anymore. Yu'er and Wei's family can only entrust you. Let's leave this, and Wenchang takes care of you!"

"Brother, let's go from the north gate, it's safer there." Li Li stood up and sent Chen Gong out of the lobby and whispered.

Chen Gong nodded slightly when he heard this, then turned over and disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.

Li Li watched Chen Gong ride away, stand there for a long time, and his face showed a feeling of loneliness.

Chen Gong has a stubborn personality and a tough mind. Once he makes up his mind, it will be difficult to change. In the Romance of the Romance, he believed that Cao Cao was a stubborn and cunning person. After being captured, he would rather die than surrender and go to justice. Faced with such a very personalized person, even though Li Li wanted to keep him by his side, he had no way to persuade him and could only let him leave.

After a while, Li Li ordered Li Zhi: "Immediately, I will send a letter to Bocai to lead the infantry into Meiwu, and ordered Li Xuan to check the money and grain that Meiwu has stocked, register and handle it properly. I will send a letter to Dian Wei to reorganize the army immediately, and I will lead the army in half an hour!" (To be continued)
