Invincible Three Kingdoms System

Chapter 161 Taking over Anyi
"What? Surrender to Zhao Qian?" The sergeant was taken aback, "We are all soldiers of the Grand Master, so how can Zhao Qian tolerate us?"

Hu Chi'er chuckled and said, "Those that Zhao Qian doesn't tolerate are Dong Zhuo and Niu Fu. We are just ordinary soldiers. Besides, we have made great achievements by killing Niu Fu. Then Zhao Qian will only reward us." , will never kill us."

"Where are these belongings? Dedicated to Zhao Qian?" Another sergeant asked.

Hu Chi'er glared at him, and shouted: "Fart! We killed Niu Fu for these property? How can we dedicate it to Zhao Qian? Let's find a place to hide it first, and come back to pick it up after a while."

The sergeants were overjoyed and agreed, so they hid a cart full of belongings in a cave, and then dumped the corpses of Niu Fu, his wife, and maidservants into the river not far away.

After finishing all this, Hu Chi'er wrapped up the heads of Niu Fu and his wife, and led five soldiers back towards Anyi City.

Anyi City is where Hanoi County is located. There is a big family in the city, surnamed Wei, who is the Wei family of Wei Zhongdao who was killed by Zhao Qian before.

At this time, just after dawn, a servant came to the door of the head of the house, Wei Ke, apparently to report something.

Wei Ji asked the servant to enter the house, and the servant said: "A big event happened last night, I wonder if the Patriarch knows about it?"

Wei Ji nodded, and said: "I know that Niu Fu attacked General Zhao Qian at night, but unexpectedly fell into the trap, and returned in a complete defeat, losing a lot of soldiers and horses."

However, after hearing this, the servant shook his head and said, "That's not the case."

Wei Ji was taken aback for a moment, then turned around and asked, "Isn't this the case? Could there be other major events happening?"

The servant confirmed that there was no one around, and said in a low voice: "The captain guarding the gate at the west gate is a member of our Wei family. Last night, a carriage came out of the west gate, and the escort was Hu Chi'er, Niu Fu's confidant!"

Wei Ji frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Could it be that Niu Fu took his family and abandoned the city and fled?"

The servant nodded and said flatteringly: "The owner of the house is wise, the school lieutenant had doubts at that time, so he sent people to the Niu's mansion to investigate, and sure enough, Niu Fu and his wife were gone."

After Wei Ji heard this, he snorted coldly, and said: "That Niu Fu was entrusted with a heavy responsibility just because he was close to Dong Zhuo, but now he is doing well, he even abandoned the city and fled. I wonder if Dong Zhuo will kill his beloved son-in-law?"

After pondering for a moment, Wei Ji ordered the servant: "Call the head of the Wei family to discuss matters in the lobby."

Not long after, all the dignitaries from the Wei family arrived, and Wei Ji sat at the head, and said, "Everyone, I received the news that Niu Fu abandoned the city and fled, and Zhao Qian's army outside the city is overwhelming, what should we do now?"

When everyone heard this, they were in an uproar. No one expected that such a big change would happen after sleeping.

"Patriarch, then Zhao Qian has enmity with our Wei family. Why don't our Wei family come forward and take over Niu Fu's soldiers and fight against Zhao Qian!" said a doorman.

As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately retorted: "Hmph, if Zhao Qian is so easy to deal with, would Niu Fu abandon the city and run away?"

"Then according to your opinion, what should we do? Run away like that Niu Fu?" The man before retorted.

The other person ignored him, but directly clasped his fists at Wei Ke and said, "I wonder if Patriarch still remembers the words in Zhao Qian's letter?"

Wei Ji nodded and said: "Of course I remember, Zhao Qian said in his heart that if he colludes with Bandit Dong, our clan will be destroyed."

The man nodded and said, "Of course, if he escapes or resists at this time, it is confirmed that he is in collusion with Dong Zhuo, and Zhao Qian will definitely blame the Wei family."

Wei Ji nodded and said, "Don't quarrel, everyone, I have decided to welcome General Zhao Qian!"

All the disciples looked at each other and stopped talking. After all, they were all begging for food at Wei's house. Since the Patriarch had made a decision, it would be bad if he objected.

"Come here, prepare a carriage, I want to go to the general's camp!" Wei Ke ordered.

"Patriarch, this is too dangerous. What if Zhao Qian turns his face and refuses to recognize anyone?"

Wei Ji shook his head and said: "I see that the general has the world in his heart, so he will not kill me. The rise and fall of the Wei family depends on this one action."

All the disciples were silently moved, Wei Ji then ordered: "Send a message to the children of the Wei family in the army, spread the news of Niu Fu's escape, open the city gate, and welcome the general."

Wei Ji acted swiftly and resolutely, and after arranging everything, a servant in the mansion drove a carriage to Zhao Qian's camp outside the city.

In Zhao Qian's army tent, both civil and military affairs are completed, and they are discussing the countermeasures to break the city. At this time, a messenger came and said: "I am here to report to the general, Anyi Wei wants to see you outside the camp."

Zhao Qian was taken aback, raised his eyebrows, and said to himself: "Anyi Wei? Patriarch of the Wei family? Wei Zhongdao's elder brother?"

Guo Jia rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Wei Ji came here at this time, thinking that something happened in the city. It seems that Anyi City will belong to the master."

"My lord killed Wei Zhongdao before, will the Wei family swallow it?" Su Huan asked.

Xun You chuckled and said, "The court, what these big families care about most is not the life or death of a certain member of the family, but the prosperity of the family. This Wei Ke is not a mediocre person, and he must be able to weigh the pros and cons."

Zhao Qian nodded, deeply convinced, and sent an order: "Please pay Patriarch Wei."

The summoning soldiers led away, and after a while, Wei Ji, led by the sergeant, walked into Zhao Qian's tent, bowed and said, "Wei Ji has seen the general."

Zhao Qian laughed and said, "If Patriarch Wei doesn't come to see you, this general would think that you are in cahoots with Dong Zhuo and Niu Fu."

Wei Ji was startled, and quickly said: "I dare not collude with Dong thief, but the family business is in Anyi, so I can't get away from it."

The corner of Zhao Qian's mouth raised, and he said: "The Patriarch is able to come today, so the general will naturally believe it. I don't know why he came here this time?"

"I have an important matter to tell you, so that the general can take Anyi City without spending a single soldier." Wei Ke said, and Zhao Qian was surprised by what he said.

"Patriarch Wei, tell me quickly, what's the trick?" Zhao Qian asked anxiously.

Wei Ji saluted again, and said: "It's not a clever plan, it's just that this morning Niu Fu had abandoned the city with his family and guards and fled. At this time, Anyi City has only defenders, but no generals."

When Xu Chu heard this, he laughed and said, "My lord, since there are no generals, I would like to lead 1000 men to capture this city."

"This general doesn't need to work hard. Among the sergeants and captains guarding the city, there are many children of our Wei family. As long as the general arrives, he will open the door and offer the city." Wei Jiao said.

Su Huan next to him frowned and said, "My lord, you need to be careful, this is a trap!"

Guo Jia who was next to him pulled Suhuan and said: "Don't worry about the court, the Patriarch of the Wei family is here, there is absolutely no trap, I believe Patriarch Wei's words."

Zhao Qian nodded and said: "In this case, order the whole army to march towards Anyi and take over Anyi!"
