Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

Chapter 126 The sky is weak, Lin Mo is dying
When they arrived at Xiaoguan, Hao Meng, who had a long scar between her eyebrows extending to the left side of her face, was already waiting at the door.

"Prefect Lin!" Even though he has been in this team for more than a year, he has only met Hao Meng three times, once in Pengcheng and twice in Xiaoguan, so the conversation is inevitably a little rusty.

"Everyone who knew the inside story has been switched. Now in Xiao Guan, no one except me knows the existence of the secret way."

"Thank you General, I'll go and see for myself, and don't bother the General."

After Lin Mo cupped his hands, he walked in directly.

It was more than 90 miles from Pengcheng to Xiaoguan, and there was no urgent military affairs, so Lin Mo and his party were only traveling at a normal speed, and it was already noon when they arrived here.

If he wanted to rush back to Pengcheng today, he couldn't delay for too long.

Lin Mo brought Lu Lingqi and Zhao Yun to a mansion in Xiao Guannei. It was originally a warehouse for storing ordnance, but it was later remodeled.

Although it is a little dilapidated, it is good so that it will not attract attention.

The three of them passed through the circular arch of the nave, came to the innermost room, walked to the couch, lifted the quilt, Lin Mo held the guard of the hidden compartment and turned upwards, and a dark hole appeared in the middle of the room. in front of people.

After exchanging glances, Zhao Yun led the way with an oil lamp, Lin Mo was second, and Lu Lingqi was last.

Originally thought that this should be a tunnel shaped like a previous life tunnel, but it turned out that the width was only one foot five and the height was less than three feet, so that the three of them had to squat down to walk.

In such a posture, it takes seven or eight miles to walk, which is a huge challenge for physical strength.

But the group of treasure thieves is obviously quite experienced, and there will be a rest room where people can stand upright every mile or so.

Moreover, there are two large shields inside, and the base of the shield has a hook, which is to prevent people from chasing in the tunnel, and can hold the shield against the narrow passage.

After traveling for more than five miles, Lin Mo was already sweating profusely and out of breath.

Fortunately, the next step has come to an end. The so-called seven-mile length should also include the climbing distance at the end.

Climbing up along the rope ladder and pushing aside a wooden board, the three of them stood on the hill west of Xiaoguan.

After half an hour of darkness, they were finally able to see the sun again. The three of them let the chilly wind of early winter dry the sweat stains on their faces, feeling comfortable and happy.

"If you want to be able to fight after passing through such a tunnel, you must be among the elite." Zhao Yun didn't pant like Lin Mo, but fine beads of sweat oozed from his face.

"In my opinion, it has to be the elite of the elite, to fall into the camp." Lin Mo stroked his face with his hand in exchange for a trace of coolness.

"It's no exaggeration. Have you not practiced bowing recently?" Lu Lingqi pursed her lips and smiled.

She put on a new set of leather armor today, but it is black, it looks like armor from a distance, maybe, she thinks this style is more like her own.

"Damn it, I forgot to bring water."

Lin Mo groped for a while, and cursed depressedly, "Let's go back to Xiaoguan."

So, the three returned to Xiaoguan along the hill.

This experience is indeed tiring but worthwhile, at least I have a clear understanding of this tunnel.

Of course it's best if you don't need it, but if it comes in handy one day, at least you know who to ask and how much equipment you can bring.

Among other things, troops like the trapped camp would definitely not be able to pass through with equipment.

Those guys were already physically strong, and after wearing heavy armor and holding a big shield, they all looked like humanoid Gundams.

Of course, if person A is separated, they can still come in.

Back at Xiaoguan's council hall, Lin Mo gulped water, and finally recovered.

"Yunwen, I've heard people say that you once wanted to go to Xuchang."

Zhao Yun looked around and asked: "Then Marquis Wen came from Jiujiang thousands of miles to chase you to Xiaoguan, and chased you back. Is there such a thing?"

From the corner of Lin Mo's eyes, he clearly noticed the slight change in the expression on Lu Lingqi's face, and hurriedly coughed twice, "I didn't know Ling'er was my fiancee at the time, otherwise, even if Cao Cao came to invite me in person, I wouldn't go, you said Right."

Faced with Lin Mo's flattery, Lu Lingqi's mouth curled up, and she became angry, "Yes, yes, isn't it right? When I left, I took Xu Sheng with me, and I even left a house deed for the servant girl, but I'm the one who treats me as an outsider."

Forehead.
Your memory is really good, just like a girlfriend looking over old accounts, exactly.

When the young couple were exposing their quarrels, Hao Meng ran in in a hurry, "Prefect Lin, the scouts came to report, and a large number of cavalry were found ten miles west of the city coming towards Xiaoguan. A pawn with no end in sight!
But there are no buildings, cars or ladders. "

Hearing this, the three suddenly stood up.

Cao Cao cheated and attacked Xiaoguan!

This was the first thought that popped into Lin Mo's mind.

"Has anyone sent someone to Pengcheng for help?"

"On the way here, I have sent a fast horse to report to Marquis Wen, but..."

Hao Meng, the man with the scar, frowned, and his expression became even more ferocious, "It's Shen Shi now, and it takes more than ninety miles to Pengcheng, and it will take an hour for a fast horse to arrive, and Marquis Wen has to order troops to get ready. It will be ugly tonight at Xiaoguan at the earliest."

Yes, half a day is definitely needed.

And it was only the forward cavalry who arrived. If the infantry arrived in full gear, it would have to wait until tomorrow morning.

However, there were [-] troops stationed here at Xiaoguan, and the city defense was built to a height of more than four feet, Cao Cao would definitely not be able to attack it within a day.

strange
Even if he made a sneak attack again, he would only gain half a day's time difference at most, and he would not be able to attack Xiaoguan.

What's more, he didn't even bring the building carts, rush carts, and ladders for the siege. What exactly is he planning?
Striking around?
Then what is his real purpose?
"Let's go to the city gate first to have a look." Lin Mo, who didn't have time to think about it, roughly calculated the time when the scouts reported back and the speed at which Cao Jun's cavalry marched, and he guessed that they should be approaching the city immediately.

A group of four headed towards the north gate. On the way, the people in the pass ran in a panic, either leading their children, cleaning up the vendors, or locking the gate tightly.

When they came to the city gate, the conditions of the soldiers were not much better than that of the common people. Bundles of arrows were continuously brought up, rolling stones and wood were also sorted, and iron pots filled with golden juice were carried to the bonfire. Boiling, it looks like an enemy.

After a while, I saw the dust billowing in the distance, and the cavalry came in a gust of wind.

As the opponent's soldiers and horses began to gather under the city gate, the sergeants on the city gate drew up their bows one after another, or stood guard next to the rolling stone, ready to fight.

The three gate bolts at the gate of the city were blocked by arm-thick wooden boards, and two gate sticks were added to resist it. With this posture, even if a car came rushing, it would be impossible to break through the door.

"It really is Cao Cao, he's really cheating!" Hao Meng saw a man with a short beard riding a tall horse, with a solemn expression.

Following Hao Meng's gaze, Lin Mo saw the man he had been thinking about day and night.

Riding on a blackened war horse, he couldn't tell his height, and he was sizing up the city gate in black armor.

Judging by his actions, it seemed that he was not in a hurry to take action, but began to lead people along the Chengguan all the way from the north gate to the east gate, and then went to the south gate.

When he returned to the north gate, the pawns began to arrive one after another.

Without siege equipment or ladders, Lin Mo began to feel uneasy about what Cao Cao wanted to do.

The battle is about to break out, but the opponent's actions make him puzzled. This is like an invisible sword stabbing at you, but you don't know where the opponent is going to stab.

"Cao Sikong, long time no see!"

Cao Cao must have something behind him, Lin Mo couldn't think of it for a while, but after all, there are [-] defenders in the city, so it will not be a problem to delay for a long time.

Lin Mo planned to set the other party's words, hoping to get some useful information.

No matter how bad it is, it's good to delay some time for the old father-in-law.

"Who are you?" Cao Cao, who was sitting on the yellow fly, looked at the city gate.

Lin Mo smiled slightly, took out a kit from his bosom, and waved it in front of him, "Sikong still remembers this thing, and it still has a strong smell of angelica inside."

Hearing this, Cao Cao's pupils suddenly converged, his expression was stagnant, Lin, Yun, Wen!

"You are, Lin Mo, Lin Yunwen?" Cao Cao called out.

"I've met Cao Sikong, how many times I've dreamed of being a god, and today I can finally meet him. It's really a blessing in life, but it's a pity that it's under the smoke of war."

Lin Mo's emotion aroused the throbbing in Cao Cao's heart that had been silent for a long time.

He jumped off his claws, Huang Feidian, and took two steps forward, "Yunwen, I have been waiting for you in Xuchang for a long time, and I haven't seen you back for a long time, but it's okay, today, I will personally pick you up!"

Sure enough, there is a backhand, but... what is his backhand!
Lin Mo was very anxious, especially when he saw that there were more and more infantry at the city gate, and they had begun to divide the troops to surround the east gate and the south gate. If he couldn't figure it out, he would really be taken back to Xuchang.

You still have to bluff him first!
"Hahaha"

Lin Mo laughed loudly, stepped on the gap in the city wall with one foot, and shouted, "Why doesn't Sikong think about it, why am I here?"

As soon as this question came out, Cao Cao's confident face froze instantly.

Yeah, why did he come here?

Could it be that Lu Zhao was discovered by him?

Otherwise, how can it be explained that Tong Linmo will be guarding here?

With one thought of hatred, a million barriers are opened.

After having such an idea, the suspicious Cao Cao had countless extreme thoughts, and the aura of winning just now was instantly wiped out.

The confidence on a person's face cannot be hidden, and neither is the fear.

Lin Mo saw that it was effective, so he put his elbows against the walls of the city, held his chin, and continued to shout: "It's a mere plan to cheat and sneak attack, you can hide it from others, how can you hide it from me, Lin Yunwen, Sikong, the general of the North Kingdom?" , our enemy is Yuan Shao, we should go back quickly, it is wise for you and me to join forces to fight against Yuan Fang."

Lin Mo's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Cao Cao's heart hard.

If someone else said that, he might feel that he was bluffing, but he is Lin Mo, who assisted Lu Bu to set foot in the two states.
Cao Cao's face was dark, and he couldn't say a word, so that Xu Chu behind him ran to ask when he could attack the city, but he didn't get a half-word response.

Time passed by like this minute by minute, and the soldiers who closed the city gate were crazy with joy.

As expected of Wen Hou's son-in-law, Cao Cao dared not move in a few words.

The soldiers and horses behind Cao Cao also seemed a little restless, because the coach's reaction made them feel less confident.

"General Hao, has an unknown person appeared in the city recently?" When Cao Cao hesitated, Lin Mo finally came to his senses.

The other party did not bring siege equipment, and cheated to earn half a day's time difference. There is only one possibility, and that is to arrange his own manpower in the city in advance, just like Shouchun City back then!
"Should not be." Hao Meng looked a little confused.

"What do you mean should be?" Lin Mo's eyes widened. If Cao Cao was not below, he might not be able to hold back his anger.

"Xiaoguan is the only way to Beiguan from the counties around Pengcheng. There are many people going back and forth on weekdays. As long as there are road guides and household registration cards, I have no reason to stop them from entering, right?" Hao Meng felt a little bit injustice.

Those who have guides and household registration cards are all registered in Pengcheng's household register, and they will be investigated clearly. Even if there are fish that slip through the net, it is impossible for hundreds or thousands of people to appear.

unless
Lin Mo's heart trembled suddenly, unless the guards came with the major families during the poetry meeting!
It must be, it must be!

He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, but his hands were trembling uncontrollably, "Listen, immediately dispatch 1000 reinforcements to the gates of the east gate and south gate, and tell the people below , Anyone who dares to approach the city gate will be killed without mercy!"

"this this"

Hao Meng stared wide-eyed in surprise and fear, "But if so many people are transferred away, the guards at the city gate will be empty."

"Go!!!" Lin Mo was like a roaring tiger, with the veins on his forehead popping out.

Seeing Lin Mo's expression, Hao Meng nodded repeatedly, turned around and ran away.

At that time, the last infantry under the Chengguan had gathered, and Lin Mo panted and looked around.

It's okay, it's okay, even if it's the elite, it won't be too many to keep people, as long as the city gate is blocked, it will be fine, and it can be delayed until Lord Yuezhang arrives.
"Sikong! Why haven't you done anything yet?"

Xun You was originally with the cavalry, but as he was getting old, even the six arts of a gentleman could not bear this old bone, and the slower and slower he ran, he got mixed up with the infantry. He got off his horse and ran to Cao Cao, asking puzzledly road.

Seeing that it was Xun You who came, Cao Cao shared Lin Mo's words with his own worries. Unexpectedly, Xun You stomped his feet anxiously, "Oh! Sikong, he just took advantage of your suspicious temperament. Just imagine, Lu Zhao really If he found out, wouldn't the wisest thing for him be to wait for us to attack the city before encircling and annihilating it?"

If Cao Cao was shocked by an electric shock, his whole body twitched, yes, he was careless, and he was almost bluffed by him!
It's really not a fuel-efficient lamp, to be able to play scheming at this time.

Cao Cao didn't know why Lin Mo appeared in Xiaoguan, but Xun You's words gave him great courage, and all the delusion just now was shattered in an instant.

In the next breath, he turned around and looked at Lin Mo who was closing the city gate, and shouted: "Yunwen, the scheming is good, but unfortunately, it's too late! Siege the city!"

With Cao Cao's sudden roar, Lin Mo's heart fell into the bottomless abyss in an instant, Hao Meng just went down, and it was too late to send the order.

At the same time, as he expected, Cao Jun's generals only shouted loudly, but did not really launch an attack.

This is nothing more than a signal to the dark in the city.

Hao Meng is an idiot. After the Shouchun War, he once asked his old father-in-law to issue a strict order that all stranded personnel need to be registered. This guy is going to kill us!

Lin Mo's mind was running fast, but he couldn't think of a way to return to heaven after all.

Even if they could escape from Xiaoguan through the tunnel, how could they break through without horses.

Thinking of this, Lin Mo's heart has turned cold.

　I was panicked when I wrote this plot, and I was especially afraid that you would say it was poisonous, but this is what happened under normal logic, and it does not count as the protagonist being defeated strategically, so this is not considered a tyrant, right?This plot will be connected to the next big plot. After thinking about it for a long time, I decided to write it down. If you have any opinions, you can also mention them.
