"What's going on?" On the north side of the city, Li Ru also saw the fire in the west of the city, his face sank like water.

Soon, many soldiers rushed to report from all directions.

"Li Shangshu, some thieves set fire to the west. The fire is too big to be extinguished immediately."

"Li Shangshu, when the Habayashi Army just passed by the East City Gate, they had a dispute with the city defenders. The two sides are fighting. General Hong asks you to go and uphold justice."

"The people in Xuanwu Street looted the rice shop. It was a chaotic scene. The head of the rice shop asks you to send someone to maintain order."

Hearing the continuous report, Li Ru was upset.Looking at the bottom, the soldiers under Gao Shun's command kept clamoring for a fight, and there was a possibility of attacking the city at any time.

So many things happened in the city at the same time, how could it be a coincidence, someone obviously did it on purpose.

Who is it?

Yang family?Cui family?The Sima family?

A coldness flashed in Li Ru's eyes.

The situation was urgent, and there was no time for him to deduce it carefully.Suppressing the irritability in his heart, Li Ru immediately started to give orders, put out the fire, persuade the peace, and as for the rioters who robbed the rice shop, just kill them directly.

He is worthy of being the number one counselor under Dong Zhuo's command.

After dealing with these, the soldiers sent by Jiaohua also rushed to the rear.

"Shang Shu, Jiao Sima asked me to inform you that Marquis Wen is back." The soldier reported.

Hearing this, Li Ru had a very bad premonition in his heart. The thirteen gates in the east, west, north, south, and north were all closed, and no one was allowed to travel without his order.

When Lu Bu came back, he should be the first person to know.

However, he didn't receive any news, is it the hell!

"What about others?"

Li Ru's face was gloomy, Dong Zhuo had never mentioned in his letters that Lu Bu was going back to Luoyang, and he probably had ulterior motives when he came back this time.

"Marquis Wen left the gate and headed south, Jiao Sima dared not stop him." The soldier replied.

"East, west, north..."

Li Ru's face became more and more gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and read every word, only Nan Bian was missing.

Use Gao Shun to drag himself at the north city gate, and then send people to set fire to the west and make trouble in the east.If both sides are in trouble, the soldiers in the south will definitely send some of them to help.

As a result, the four city gates in the south are bound to be the weakest.

What a way to divert the tiger away from the mountain and take advantage of the fire to loot!

Li Ru saw through the trick and gritted his teeth with hatred.

"Xu Wu, bring 2000 people as quickly as possible to the south gate and bring Lu Bu back to me. If he doesn't come, he will be killed on the spot!"

In extraordinary times, Li Ru's methods were also extremely harsh.

"This……"

The general named Xu Wu showed embarrassment, Lu Bu's rank was not a bit higher than him, and Grand Master Dong valued him.If he were to be killed right away, he would not be able to bear the responsibility if he were to be held accountable.

"What are you afraid of? If something happens, I will bear all the consequences." Li Ru said decisively.

After receiving the promise, Xu Wu became more courageous. He immediately gathered his soldiers and shouted, "Follow me."

Xu Wu set off, and Li Ru ordered the soldier who came to inform him to be decisive: "Go and tell Jiaozuo quickly, even if you search Lu's mansion, I will arrest his wife and daughter!"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

When he reached the Baihuque Terrace outside the Nangong Palace, Lu Bu saw a big fire burning in the west of the city, so he quickened his pace.

When they arrived at Kaiyang Gate, the soldiers guarding the gate stopped Lu Bu.

"Get out of the way." Lu Bu said coldly.

The captain of the city gate came and asked Lu Bu with a smile, "Does Marquis Wen have Li Shangshu's warrant?"

Although he didn't know why Lu Bu appeared here, he just had to do his duty well.

"No." Lu Bu glanced at the captain, and answered calmly.

"Then forgive me for my lowly position and negligence. You can't let Marquis Wen out of the city." The captain of Chengmen looked distressed, clasped his fists, and asked Lu Bu to go back.

Lu Bu certainly wouldn't leave, so he narrowed his eyes and said with a chill in his voice, "What if I have to go out?"

"If Marquis Wen wants to force his way in, he can only be offended by his lowly position." The captain of the city gate took half a step back, and more than a dozen soldiers who were guarding the gate immediately rushed up, blocking Lu Bu's way.

Li Ru had given death orders to the captains guarding every city gate. Without his warrant, if anyone dared to let go, he would come to see him.

This is by no means a joke, let alone an exaggeration.

Anyone who is a little familiar with Li Ru knows that he is a cold guy to the bone, and he will do anything to achieve his goals.

When the two sides were confronting each other, soldiers shouted from the watchtower above the city: "General, there are a large number of people outside the city approaching us."

The captain was shocked when he heard the words. At this time, Lu Bu moved.

In just two or three strokes, Lu Bu approached the captain in a strange manner, pushed him to the bottom of the city cave against the wall, and quickly pulled out the sword from the captain's waist, and with a 'choke' sound, put it on the ground. Touched the captain's shoulder, close to the throat.

Feeling the chill of death, the captain suddenly stopped, crying with a mournful face: "Marquis Wen, what are you doing?"

Lu Bu's face was indifferent, and he opened the city gate with the same words.

"Open the city gate, Li Shangshu will kill me!" There was a tremor in the voice of the captain of the city gate.

Lu Bu showed no mercy, but said in a cold tone, "If you don't open the city gate, you will die now. If you are still stubborn when I count to three, don't blame this general for being ruthless. One, two..."

"Wen Hou's sword keeps people under his sword, I will open it, I will open it."

The captain of Chengmen chose to compromise. He who understands the current affairs is a hero. If he stays in the green hills, he will not be afraid of no firewood.

"Open the gates!"

The captain of the city gate shouted from below, and the soldiers on the tower did not dare to disobey the order, they turned the iron chains and lowered the suspension bridge.

Boom~~~

Huang Zhong saw the drawbridge lowered from a distance, turned his head and issued an order to the soldiers: "After entering the city, no civilians are allowed to be killed, no people are allowed to enter and rob. Our task is only one, capture the top of the city everywhere, understand?"

"Understood!" The soldiers behind him shouted in unison.
