    "But it's me, the eldest brother, who forces a girl into prostitution!! How can I have the face to see my mother in the future!?"

    Wang Geng heard the words and tried to persuade him again.  Wang Geng was eloquent and his words gradually made Xu Sheng feel relieved, so he led Wang Geng to see Cao Pi together.  Let's say that Cao Pi heard that someone broke into the camp at night to secretly meet Xu Sheng. There was a bright light in the owl's eyes.  Suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the tent, and the soldiers reported that Xu Sheng also had a righteous man named Wang Geng who wanted to see him.  Cao Pi's expression changed and he called him in.  After a while, Xu Sheng and Wang Geng stepped into the tent together and worshiped "Novel" one after another.  Cao Pi waved his hand as a response, and then looked at Xu Sheng's expression coldly with burning eyes.  Xu Sheng's face was calm and showed no signs of panic.  Cao Pi raised his eyebrows, looked at Wang Geng, and said with a smile.

    "I heard from the soldiers that there was a man who claimed to be an old friend of General Xu. Is this a righteous man?"

    When Wang Geng heard this, he quickly knelt down and worshiped. Xu Sheng nodded in response.

    "Your Highness, this person is my brother Xu Hu's general. He came to the camp at night to see you, but he has some confidential matters to discuss with me."

    "Oh? What's important? General Xu, can you tell me?"

    Cao Pi showed no emotion or anger, but had a pleasant smile, so he asked.  Xu Sheng then took out the document from his arms and handed it to Cao Pi.  Cao Pi took it, looked at it, his face suddenly brightened, and he laughed loudly.

    "Hahaha!! This is really what helped me build my career!! It is said that those who know the current affairs are heroes. General Xu, your brother, is really a hero!!"

    When Xu Sheng heard this, his heart tightened, but he was filled with bitterness.  Cao Pi then rewarded Wang Geng generously and taught him to go back and make preparations. He also promised that when the work is completed, those who have done meritorious service will be generously rewarded.  Wang Geng thanked him and left.  Cao Zhang's face condensed and he asked Cao Pi.

    "I wonder what the emperor likes?"

    With a smile on his face, Cao Pi handed the letter in his hand to Cao Zhang.  Cao Zhang bowed and took it with both hands, then looked at the letter.  After reading it, Cao Zhang was silent and handed the letter to Hao Zhao who was standing aside.  Hao Zhao took it, looked at it for a while, looked calm, glanced at Xu Sheng, and then said to Cao Pi.

    "Your Highness, if this is a fraud, what can we do?"

    As soon as Hao Zhao said this, Xu Shenghu glared, looked at Hao Zhao fiercely, and shouted angrily.

    "Hao Bodao, what you said, are you saying that my brother is deceitful!?"

    Hao Zhao looked cold and said calmly.

    "General Xu, there is no need to get angry. It's better to judge the situation with facts. Although Xu Hu is your brother, he is a minister of Soochow. If he wants to set up a deception to lure our army into the city and ambush it, our army will be unprepared.  They are all like turtles in a urn and will be destroyed!"

    "you!!"

    Xu Sheng was filled with anger and shouted loudly, ready to explode.  Hao Zhao showed no fear and looked at each other coldly. Cao Zhang hurriedly took a step forward, stood between the two of them, and shouted.

    "This is an important military camp. As a soldier of our great Wei Dynasty, how can you behave like this tit for tat!!"

    Cao Zhang is young, and although he is born with a domineering spirit, his momentum bursts out, his eyes are like golden light, and his momentum is terrifying.  Xu Sheng felt as if he was being shocked by an electric shock, and then his face became furious. He turned around and raised his hands to Cao Pi and shouted.

    "Your Highness, my brother Xu Hu values ??filial piety and filial piety, and everyone in Soochow knows it. If I were not afraid that I would bring down my family and harm my mother, I would never turn against the Lord. I am willing to protect you with my life!!"

    When Cao Pi saw that Xu Sheng's face was calm and there was no falsehood, he believed most of it immediately.  At this time, after hearing what Xu Sheng said, Hao Zhao and Cao Zhang's expressions changed, revealing expressions of surprise, as if they did not expect that Xu Sheng trusted his brother so much that he dared to guarantee his life.  Cao Pi's face darkened, he looked at Cao Zhang and asked slowly.

    "Brother Zhang, what do you think?"

    When Cao Zhang heard this, his expression condensed and he cupped his hands.

    "I think General Xu is a loyal and loyal man, and his brother must not be a treacherous person either. Maybe he can give it a try!"

    After hearing this, Cao Pi's eyes showed joy, he nodded slightly, and looked at Hao Zhao again.  Hao Zhao understood and looked at Xu Sheng. After looking at it for a while, his attitude suddenly changed and he said in a deep voice.

    "Although General Xu is a new recruit, he is indeed a trustworthy person. However."

    Hao Zhao suddenly frowned and was about to change his words, but before he could finish his words, Cao Pi suddenly interrupted with laughter.

    "That's the case. It's not too late. You can quickly prepare your troops and horses. When Shihou arrives the next day, immediately lead the troops into Jianye!!"

    Hao Zhao originally wanted to remind Cao Pi to be careful about Xu Hu, but when he saw that Cao Pi had already made up his mind, he sighed inwardly, but still did not say what he was thinking.  At this time, Xu Sheng's face suddenly tightened, and he knelt on the ground and begged.

    "I have an unkind request at the end, and I hope your highness will accept it."

    "Haha. If I can get a career this time without any effort, Wen Xiang will be the same as your brother.??First achievement.  Whatever you ask for, it doesn't matter.  "

    Cao Pi smiled brilliantly, and the corners of his eyebrows arched up in laughter.  Xu Sheng's expression condensed and he said in a deep voice.

    "If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince succeeds in building a new empire, he hopes that he can imitate the benevolent and righteous master of Xianyang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bang, and make a three-part agreement with the sergeants not to harm innocent people in the city."

    "There is no need to worry too much, Wen Xiang. I, the great Wei Dynasty, am a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, how can I kill people indiscriminately!?"

    After Cao Pi finished speaking, he immediately gave orders to the generals to take charge of their respective subordinates. After Jianye is obtained, those who hurt others or commit crimes will be dealt with according to military law!  Seeing this, Xu Sheng's originally turbulent heart became much calmer, and he quickly thanked Cao Pi again and again.

    The next day, around the time of the first watch, the moonlight had not yet come up.  Cao Pi led his troops to the mountains a few miles away from the south gate.  Xu Chu took the order and headed for the front, slowly looking at the south gate.  Suddenly, only the sound of shells being blown on the west gate was heard, shouts suddenly arose, torches were lit on the door, the city gate was opened wide, and the drawbridge was lowered.

    Xu Chu saw it with keen eyes, thinking that it must be Xu Hu who offered the city as promised. He shouted loudly and rushed forward on his horse. A group of soldiers behind him shouted to kill, and they looked over the south gate from all over the mountains and fields.  Cao Pi, who was behind, heard the shouts of killing from the front, and guessed that the troops in the front had already moved forward, so he quickly issued a military order and ordered all the troops to move together.  All of a sudden, the drums were beating loudly, and the shouts of killing were like roaring waves sweeping across, shaking the sky and the earth.

    But it was said that Xu Chu rushed in first, and there were constant conflicts along the way. He looked directly at the county government to kill Zhuge Jin and other Wu officials.  Unexpectedly, no one was seen on the road. By the time Xu Chu noticed the clue, all his men and horses had already rushed into Jianye City. Behind him, many soldiers and horses were rushing in, all eager to compete for credit.  Xu Chu's heart was shocked. After years of fighting, he immediately guessed that he might be caught in the trap.

    Xu Chu quickly tightened the reins, turned the horse back, and shouted loudly.

    "Stop!! Be careful of ambush!!"

    Xu Chu roared angrily, like a tiger roaring. The soldiers under his command were startled and stopped their horses one after another. The men and horses behind him couldn't react in time, and they bumped into each other one after another. People turned on their backs, horses roared, everyone yelled, and there was a big chaos.  .  At this moment, a cannon sounded in the county government office, golden drums sounded, and the shouts were like the river boiling.  Zhu Huan came out of the east alley, and Xu Hu came out of the west alley. They each led the soldiers and civilians in Jianye City to attack and cover up the enemy.  When Xu Chu saw this, he was at a loss for a moment. Seeing an overwhelming crowd of people from the east and west, his soldiers and horses were in a panic.  Xu Chu shouted angrily, twisted the tiger-headed sword in his hand, and went to kill him.

    On the other side, Cao Pigang rushed into Jianye City on horseback. When he heard the fierce sound of fighting in front, he immediately knew that he had been tricked and quickly gave orders.  At this moment, fire suddenly broke out from the city gate behind them, quickly turning into a sea of ??fire, and the retreat was cut off.  Cao Pi was so frightened that his face turned pale. Suddenly, from all directions, shouts of killing were heard like thunderbolts. The people of Jianye City, each armed with their own weapons, rushed towards him crazily.  The Wei soldiers responded hastily. Due to the sudden change in the battle situation, everyone was like waking up from a dream and could not react in time. They were killed by the people of Jianye and were unable to fight back. They were retreating steadily.  In the crowds of people everywhere, vehicles were piled with firewood, and the people in Jianye lit them one after another. In an instant, dozens of trains, pushed and swarmed by the people, crashed into them from all directions.  The Wei soldiers fled one after another, and the formation was immediately in chaos. The troops were separated one after another, making it difficult to look at the head and tail.

    "Wei invaders have invaded our territory of Soochow, and the country will be destroyed and our family will be destroyed. As subjects of Soochow, we have the duty to fight for our country!! Kill it~!!"

    A Soochow general shouted loudly, danced his weapons and crashed into the rebels. He was like a tiger descending from the mountain, slashing and slashing indiscriminately. Jianye's soldiers and civilians, men and women, old and weak, young and old, all raised their weapons.  , rushed into the rebellious army, bravely unafraid of death, and killed all the Wei soldiers and horses they saw.  Jianye City is close to the Central Plains. It has always been prosperous and has a huge population. There are 70,000 to 80,000 people in the city. I don¡¯t know how many people have come now, and there is a sea of ??people all around.  Cao Pi was frightened and confused. Knowing that if this situation continued, his army would definitely be defeated and suffer heavy casualties, so he made a decisive decision and gave the order.  As soon as Cao Pi's order fell, all the troops in the Wei army were in chaos. Dozens of people fled in groups, each looking at the north, east, and west gates.  Cao Pi hurriedly led a group of soldiers and horses to escape towards the east gate.  Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the east gate, there was a loud sound of bowstrings on the city, and arrows shot down like a sudden rain.  Cao Pi was in a hurry to escape, but he was unprepared for a moment. When he saw random arrows coming, he screamed in his heart.

    "My life is over!!"

    At this moment, there was a sudden roar, and Xu Sheng rushed out from behind on Pegasus. The sword in his hand danced tightly, making bursts of violent sounds, knocking down a bunch of arrows, and the broken arrows made a loud sound.  Suddenly, an arrow shot so fast that Xu Sheng slashed into the air, and with a whooshing sound, the arrow hit the armor on Xu Sheng's chest.  Xu Sheng cried out in pain and almost fell off his horse.  Fortunately, the first wave of arrows on the city were all shot at this time. Xu Sheng endured the severe pain and hurriedly shouted to Cao Pi.

    "Your Majesty, there is no need to panic. I will know that even if I die, I will never be able to forgive my crime. Even if my body is broken into pieces, I will protect you from Jianye City!!"

    Cao Pi heard this?I reacted suddenly, and there was a wave of hesitation in my eyes.  Suddenly, arrows shot up on the city again. Xu Sheng shouted angrily, swung his sword and drew out the arrows. When the round of arrows fell, Xu Sheng was hit by another arrow and hurriedly urged.  Cao Pi gritted his teeth, hurriedly reined in his horse and charged forward.

    Xu Sheng guarded Cao Pi in front of him, galloping wildly, watching the conflict at the city gate.  Wu Jiang, a member of the city, had a bad eye and recognized Xu Sheng. Seeing that Xu Sheng was willing to use his body as a shield to block the arrows of the red-robed soldier behind him, he immediately guessed that the red-robed soldier must be Cao Pi and quickly hissed loudly.  Shouting, hundreds of crossbowmen on the city kept firing arrows at Cao Pi.
