As soon as I entered the gate of the official residence, there was a faint fishy smell in the air.
The Puyang official residence is a two-story quadrangle courtyard.
After entering the gate, you first arrive at the outer courtyard, which is where the office is.
The row of wings on the left is the residence of the guards on duty, and the row on the right is the stables.
Across the courtyard, facing the gate It's the council chamber.
Along the way, from the gate to the meeting hall, it was only a short two hundred steps, but there was blood and corpses everywhere, it was too horrible to look at.
It seems that before Ma Chao came here, Cao Jun had already launched several charges.
However, due to Lu Bu's brave resistance, he was unwilling to retreat.
Because of this, Cao Cao came up with the idea of setting fire to the official residence.
He wanted to use the smoke and fire to force Lu Bu out and surround him and kill him.
At this time, Ma Chao and the small school also immediately prepared some fire preparations.
At the same time, with the help of this cover, they slowly approached the edge of the courtyard.
In the eyes of other Cao soldiers, what he did was simply seeking death.
However, those ferocious Qingzhou troops have long been accustomed to life and death.
Not only did no one scold or remind him, but they all stared at Ma Chao as if they were laughing, to see how he would eventually be shot to death by Lu Bu.
Their numbness and indifference make them regard life as a good show.
This despicability of human nature is really chilling.
However, Ma Chao had to thank them for their indifference, which allowed him to slowly reach the small outer courtyard gate of the courtyard.
As soon as he stepped through the small door, a pungent and strong smell of blood suddenly rushed out, making Ma Chao dizzy.
Looking up, I saw corpses stacked one on top of another in the courtyard.
There were one or two hundred people in total, all of them were muscular men.
They were all dressed like Cao Cao's personal soldiers.
At this time, they were lying on the ground in a mess, and each of them had an arrow shot into his throat.
There was a sticky layer of deep red on the floor, and blood was spattered everywhere on the walls and doors, which was shocking.
Seeing this scene, even though he had been mentally prepared, Ma Chao still felt a tightening in his heart: it seemed that Lu Bu inside was already too weak to get out.
When he sneaked in in disguise, Ma Chao carefully observed the terrain.
The archers among Cao's army have already secured several key points around the official residence, monitoring the streets on all sides, and blocking all the approaches with long-distance crossbows.
As long as Lu Bu comes out to kill him, he will definitely be pierced by thousands of arrows.
Even if Lu Bu could break out of the inner city, Cao Cao's more than 20,000 elite soldiers and more than 15,000 Zhang Zha and Yan Liang's men would besiege the outer city.
Even if Lu Bu is truly the unparalleled God of War, he may not be able to escape from this trap.
Moreover, Ma Chao also knew that the person who caused the incident so simply was the opportunistic Tian.
This allowed Cao Cao to capture the heart of the princes in Puyang overnight with almost no effort.
After all, he had not learned enough yet.
He had no means of restraint against speculators like Tian, and allowed him to hand over his biggest flaw.
In the hands of outsiders.
However, now that the matter has come to this, Ma Chao knows that it is useless to say anything more.
Just as he was about to dodge in, he suddenly heard a "duh" sound, and a powerful arrow flew past him and tremblingly nailed the door of the meeting hall.
Ma Chao immediately retracted one of his forward-stretched legs, retreated sharply, and hid behind the door.
His heart was pounding, and he broke into a cold sweat: The speed of this arrow, with Ma Chao's strength, he didn't notice at all.
Qing felt this sudden shock and fear for the first time in more than a year.
After finally regaining consciousness, Ma Chao began to observe his surroundings carefully.
Judging from the direction of the arrow, Lu Bu should be hiding in the martial arts hall behind the meeting hall.
Carefully looking through the crack in the door, Ma Chao discovered that beside the pillar not far from the back door, a crossbowman fell to the ground, his forehead was penetrated from front to back, and his milky white brain was mixed with bright red blood flowing out.
One place.
He must have been careless and failed to hide his body shape, exposing half of his body, and was shot by Lu Bu.

This arrow crossed the distance of 200 steps in the inner courtyard like lightning.
After piercing the crossbowman's head, it continued to fly forward into the meeting hall and was nailed to the front door.
If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have said anything.
I can't believe this was done by humans.
Looking further away, I saw that the door of the martial arts hall was open, but it was so dark inside that I couldn't see anything clearly.
The road from the meeting hall to the martial arts hall was littered with corpses just like the outer courtyard.
However, the two dozen or so lying in the middle of the courtyard were no longer Cao Cao's personal guards.
Instead, they were all impaled with powerful arrows, including men and horses.
Dead cavalry.
Judging from this, Cao Cao discovered Lu Bu's hiding place only after paying a heavy price.
However, Ma Chao was deeply resentful of Lu Bu's arrow: If he could not save the people himself, but instead was attacked by Lu Bu's arrow, that would be the ultimate injustice.
"Who is coming?"
At this moment, Lu Bu's soft shout came from the martial arts hall.
Ma Chao felt happy and immediately replied in a voice that Lu Bu could hear: "Fengxian Gong, it's me."
Ma Chao's voice is very similar to Lu Bu's.
When Ma Teng died, Ma Chao was so heartbroken that his voice became hoarse from crying.
It was like metal friction and it was difficult for others to imitate.
Therefore, after hearing Ma Chao's voice, Lu Bu's voice was obviously different.
He said happily: "Come in quickly" Stepping into the martial arts hall, Ma Chao found that the situation in front of him was worse than he imagined.
The entire hall was filled with the corpses of Cao Jun and Yuan Jun.
It was obvious that Cao and Yuan Jun had already arrived here.
And these are not what worries Ma Chao the most.
What worries him is Lu Bu's situation.
At this time, Lu Bu looked the same as usual.
Apart from being emaciated and covered in blood, he was almost still the powerful God of War.
But upon closer inspection, Ma Chao discovered that Lu Bu's face looked haggard at this time.
He no longer had the healthy bronze color of his skin before.
Instead, there was a hint of bright red in the gray.
Although Ma Chao was not familiar with this phenomenon, he I’ve also heard that word, looking back.
At this time, Lu Bu's eyeballs were red and swollen, but his eyes were still as stern and cold as an eagle or a hungry wolf.
When he looked at Ma Chao unnaturally, he showed a little bit of the gentle and doting feeling that only a loving father can have.
This strange feeling made Ma Chao, who had a heart as strong as steel, couldn't help but feel sad.
He choked and said: "Father-in-law."
Sir, you have suffered, Chao'er is here to eat you."
This was the first time Ma Chao called Lu Bu this way, and Lu Bu's expression changed when he heard this.
However, then he remembered He said, "Meng Qi, did you see Xiu'er, Chen Gong and others breaking out of the encirclement when you came here?"
"What?"
Ma Chao was shocked when he heard this.
Along the way, he didn't even notice anyone breaking through.
In other words, the breakout mentioned by Lu Bu could only be before he sneaked into Puyang City, and before that, Ma Chao and others did not see Lu Bu's army breaking through at all.
This can only be said that Liu Xiu and Chen Gong are either still fighting Cao Cao's army in the inner city, or they have become Cao Cao's prisoners.
"Father-in-law, there is no time.
We must break out as soon as possible."
Ma Chao looked around, looked at the guards around Lu Bu, and said, "How many soldiers do father-in-law have at this time?"
"There are only these fifty people left."

Lu Bu's face darkened.
At the same time, he also understood the harsh situation of Liu Xiu and others, and couldn't help but said anxiously: "If I can ride on the red rabbit, then there will be no problem in rushing out of Puyang City."
"This is easy to handle.
Chao'er also brought five thousand white horse soldiers.
They will attack in a big way soon.
After causing a commotion, we will take the opportunity to rush to the stables and rush out together."
"Okay."
Lu Bu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his whole body immediately exuded unparalleled murderous aura.
He slammed the halberd into the ground with his right hand and said loudly, "Let this world see my bravery, Lu Fengxian, for the last time."
When Ma Chao heard this, he couldn't help but frowned: Lu Bu said for the last time, it seems that he is already very aware of his physical condition, and he is still determined to die. s: Thanks to the Wang family for the reward, Yinqiu may have more foreshadowing in this section, waiting for the final result before deciding Lu Bu's life or death.
I hope you can discuss it more, thank you
