"Reporting, reporting to young master, inside the city!" A disheveled soldier ran in. He was panic-stricken, and there was blood on his face and body.
"What happened inside the city?!" Zhou Cheng frowned. He had a bad premonition.
"Lvbu's Army, Lvbu's Army!" Before the soldier finished, a middle-aged man on the side interrupted, "The Lvbu's Army has been wiped out. At least in our South Gate, there is not a single Lvbu's Army left alive!" He is the head of the Yu clan, Yu Zheng. He was in charge of the Southern Gate, which has already been cleared by him. Therefore, the Lu Bu's army had also been beheaded by him. There are more than "3000" of them. With this kind of meritorious service, his Yu clan will have a lot of benefits. "I don't know about other places." He looked at the other middle-aged man on the side.
"Could it be that our North Gate has them!" This was the voice of the master of the He clan. There was a hint of anger in his tone. What did Yu Zheng mean? What did he mean by other places? He did not know. One can eat whatever one wants, but one cannot speak whatever one wants. "3,000 Lu Bu soldiers? Hahaha! Master Yu, you really have great ability! You actually killed so many Lu Bu's army! You really made me admire you! "He Shuo was also not a person who was easy to deal with, so he mocked Yu Shuo on the spot. Three thousand Lu Bu's army? Who knew if there were 3000 soldiers in the entire Wan Cheng city. Yu Zheng actually said that he killed 3000 Lvbu's Army. Wasn't this a joke?
Yu Zheng's face turned red. Indeed, there weren't 3000, only 300. The rest were killed by good people. Every time a good person was killed, not only would they get his head, they would also get the land left behind by the dead people. However, this was the unspoken rule of everyone. You and I both know it, so it wasn't good to talk about it.
Someone on the side was immediately dissatisfied, "Yu family head said 3000, then how many did you kill?" This was the head of the Lin family who was in charge of the West Gate. These three big families could be considered as the biggest family other than the Zhou Family, Liu family, Lu Family, and Chen Family.
"Family Head Lin, what does this have to do with you? Don't tell me you want to wear the same pants as this Yu Zheng! "He Shuo was a little angry.
"It doesn't count as wearing the same pair of pants, but Patriarch Lin, you have to make yourself clear!" Although these big clans joined forces this time, they also knew that if Wancheng city once again fell into the hands of Sun Ce, their strength will certainly be reshuffled. Whoever performs better will get a bigger share of the cake. So, it can't be said that they are wearing the same pair of pants. The three clans cooperated with each other but were also wary of each other.
"Enough!" Zhou Cheng slammed the table and stood up. "Are you done yet? If you want to quarrel, then get out! " Zhou Cheng's sword-like eyebrows straightened. The messenger hasn't finished speaking and the military situation is still unknown. These three people quarreled endlessly. If these three people were not the heads of the three big families in Wancheng city, perhaps Zhou Cheng would have already pulled out his sword.
Zhou Cheng's anger made the three people even more alert. They knew that the person in charge of Wancheng city was this young man. He was the young master of the Zhou Family, Zhou Yu's nephew, and the person in charge of the Jiangdong Army. With a few words from him, it was better than all the merits.
"You, continue!" Zhou Cheng pointed at the messenger when he saw that the three of them had stopped.
"Yes, yes! There are a lot of enemy troops coming from the east. They kill people without mercy. Even if they beg for mercy and surrender, they won't let them go. Brothers, brothers, we can't hold on any longer! " Speaking until here, the messenger's heart could not help but feel sad. The people he beheaded and the wealth he plundered were all gone. If he was with those who were reluctant to part with their wealth, perhaps he would have already died in the hands of the Lvbu's Army.
"East Gate?!" Zhou Cheng knew that he was uneasy. "Isn't that the place where the Liu family is in charge?"
"Liu family's Liu Kai is so useless? He was actually defeated by the Lvbu's Army! "Yu Zheng began to make sarcastic remarks.
"That's right. The Liu family can't even take down the East Gate. They really lost the face of our Wancheng city's nobles!"
"Not only that, he is also a descendant of the Han dynasty's Prince Jing of Zhongshan!" The three of them were finally united. The Liu Clan was bigger than all three of their clans combined. If they wanted to advance further, the Liu Clan would be their stumbling block. Therefore, the three clans had to unite.
Being diverted from the topic, Zhou Cheng's hand was already trembling. He was really afraid that he would not be able to hold himself back and behead these three people. He coldly looked at the three people and suddenly calmed down.
"It's the Liu family, it's the Liu family who brought the Lvbu's Army!" The messenger cried. Thinking of his dead comrades and his own escape, he could not help but feel sad.
"Impossible!" Zhou Cheng immediately denied. The Liu family was the biggest family in Wancheng city. Lü Bu exterminated the Chen family, which offended all the nobles. The Liu family wanted to kill Lü Bu, not to mention, the Lvbu's Army's banquet emptied the granaries of the major families. The Liu family was the biggest, so their loss was the biggest. Robbing people's wealth was the same as killing their parents. Don't forget that not giving Lü Bu food was also the idea of the Liu family's head, Liu Kai.
He had already offended the Lvbu's Army, so how could he surrender to the enemy?
"It's true, it's true!" The messenger said. "This one is a private soldier of the Zhang family. I was fortunate enough to see the head of the family invite the Liu family to a banquet. The head of the Liu family, Liu Kai, was there. Today, I also saw him talking to a golden armored general!"
"Golden armored general!!" Zhou Cheng stood up. He believed in the golden armored general. This kind of armor could only be found in the Lvbu's Army. If the messenger said something else, Zhou Cheng may not believe it, but now he completely believed it.
"Golden armored general?!" "A few of the family heads were panicking. They had been to the governor's mansion for the banquet. They had also seen Lu Bu's armor hanging at the side. Wasn't that the golden armor? Could it be that Lü Bu came back?! For the horror of Lü Bu, these family heads had been engraved in their hearts. If Lü Bu was in Wancheng city, they would not dare to do this.
"Don't panic!" Zhou Cheng also knew that the situation was not good, but he was still calm. "It can't be Lü Bu!" He saw Lü Bu leave Wancheng city with his own eyes and went to Wuwei. There was even news from Wuwei that the Zhou Family's general was killed by Lü Bu.
Zhou Cheng, who should have been angry, was relieved at this time. It's good that Lü Bu died. If it was not confirmed that Lü Bu was dead, Zhou Cheng himself would not have much confidence.
One man, one halberd and one horse, he was able to treat an army as nothing. Even when Xu Province's Kaiyang army of a hundred thousand was besieged, Lu Bu was still able to escape. Furthermore, Cao Cao's army of a hundred thousand was not something that these mobs could compare to.
In addition to Lü Bu, there was also a golden armored general. Zhou Cheng remembered that Lü Bu's son-in-law was the Han dynasty's King Of Shu, Liu Mang, Liu Hanyang.
"Liu Mang, Liu Hanyang?!" The three family heads were stunned for a moment. "Is that the King Of Shu, Liu Mang?!" Sun Ce invited Lü Bu to the banquet, but wasn't this King Of Shu a scholar? How could he wear armor and become a general?
"It's really him!" Zhou Cheng sneered. This Prince of Shu's name was like thunder to the ears in Jiangdong. Sun Ce and his two advisors were so angry that they left the banquet table to avoid a battle. The nobles of Jiangdong were almost embarrassed. To be honest, Zhou Cheng was not very fond of those two old fogeys and the nobles. He even had a kind of happy expression. He really wanted to meet this Prince of Shu and have a good drink with the two of them.
But now was not the time! He wanted Wancheng city, and everything that blocked his path must be swept away. Whether he was the King Of Shu or Lü Bu's son-in-law, he must die.
"City Guard?!" The information obtained by Zhou Cheng was about the battle of Urban Army at Bagong Mountain. In that battle, more than half of the Urban Army were killed or injured. They were almost annihilated, but they still managed to block the siege of Lei Bo and Chen Lan. "Cheng Army has only been here for a few months, and their armor is less than 3000?" Zhou Cheng's face showed a trace of disdain. So what if Chen Lan and Lei Bo were defeated? They were just a group of bandits. Three thousand recruits dared to block their path.
"Since Lü Bu you stretched out your hand, I will cut off one of your fingers first!" Zhou Cheng coldly said. The entire Wancheng city had 20,000 troops. Among them, 15,000 were the private soldiers of the major families. The remaining 3,000 were the elites of the Zhou family. These people were trained by the Zhou family since childhood. They were trained by the Zhou Family in order to survive in this troubled world.
They were sent by Zhou Yi to Zhou Cheng. When Lu Bu's Army was still in Wancheng city, they were disguised as merchants, peddlers, and commoners. One after another, they entered Wancheng city and were assigned to various places.
Most of the credit for capturing Wancheng city was due to them. They were the ones who besieged Old Wu and Han Qi.
"Lü Bu, Lü Bu, prepare to mourn for your son-in-law!" Zhou Cheng's face flashed with killing intent. "Pass my order, let the Black Flag Army gather and follow me to defeat the Lvbu's Army!"
"Yes!" The Zhou Family soldier who was standing on the side excitedly accepted the order. If a troop heard the news of war and was afraid, then even if they were elite, they would not be strong enough. They would only add to the enemy's merit book.
But if a troop heard the news of the enemy, they would be excited and bloodthirsty. Even if they only had wooden swords and wooden spears in their hands, they could still dig out a piece of flesh from the enemy's body.
Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry was like this, Formation Breaker Battalion was like this, Ferocious Cavalry was also like this, and now there was the Black Flag Army!
