Han Dao world

Chapter 316 Defending the Family and the Country
Lu Bu put on his clothes and stood in front of the tent to accept Liu Xie's consultation.

More than ten years ago, he had fought with Zhang Yang, Zhang Liao and others in the northern border of Bingzhou with Ding Yuan. He was no stranger to Fuluohan, Baimatong and others, and could even be said to be very familiar with them.

Lu Bu felt that it was not wise for the Xianbei and the Huns to invade and plunder at this time. As long as the Han army was dispatched properly, it would not be difficult to win more with less.

When Ding Yuan was the governor of Bingzhou, he did a lot of things like this.

When Ding Yuan's name was mentioned, the impassioned Lu Bu lowered his eyelids, and his voice froze for a moment.

Liu Xie didn't say a word, keeping the atmosphere for a while.

Regardless of whether Lu Bu regretted killing Ding Yuan or not, the consequences of killing Ding Yuan are objective.The notoriety of killing the master will follow him throughout his life, and the crisis of being murdered by his subordinates will haunt him forever, making him unable to sleep peacefully.

This is the price he has to bear.

The cold scene made Lu Bu feel a lot of pressure. After a while, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I would like to lead my troops to advance and lead the way for Your Majesty."

Liu Xie nodded slightly. "I often hear people say that there is a red rabbit in the horse. You have a red rabbit, so you don't have to worry about it. I have nothing to give you, so I will give you a few sets of armor. May you be able to break through the siege of the Huns and Xianbei, and also Let me see how good Lu Bu is among the people."

Lu Bu was both embarrassed and grateful.

He could understand Liu Xie's meaning, there was no doubt about Chitu among horses, and Lu Bu among people had yet to be verified.

This is his chance to change his mind and prove himself.

Liu Xie ordered people to fetch several sets of armor, including human armor and vest.

Lu Bu is going to charge the battle, and the Chitu horse has irreplaceable significance to him. The vest can protect Chitu and increase the chance of survival.

Lu Bu had seen vests before, but he had never seen such an exquisite vest, so he was very grateful.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for bestowing the armor. I will defeat the barbarians for your Majesty, behead their generals, and pull out their flags."

Liu Xie nodded, then shook his head again. "Your courage is commendable, but your understanding is insufficient."

Lu Bu was stunned, and looked at Liu Xie blankly.

"Wuyuan is not only the territory of my great Han, but also the tomb of Qing's ancestors. Losing Wuyuan is a cut for the court. For Qing, it is a funeral. Now the situation is critical. If we don't fight to the death, I am afraid that after a hundred years, Qing I will be homeless and can only be a lonely ghost."

Lu Bu's face changed slightly, and his expression became serious.

The emperor's words hit his weakness.

He had already tasted enough of the grief of being a bereaved dog, and he didn't want to be a lonely ghost after death.

Goodbye Lu Bu. "Your Majesty, the subject should fight to the death and prevent the Hulu from succeeding."

Liu Xie is very satisfied.

Defending the home and the country is the true source of the will to fight.

For people like Lu Bu, defending the country may be somewhat empty, but protecting the family is a real interest.

If you don't want to become a lonely wild dog, if you don't want your descendants to become real barbarians, then fight hard.

Liu Xie immediately summoned Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others to meet them one by one.

For Lu Bu, he didn't have too high expectations, after all, he was such a person.

But for Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others, he couldn't give up easily. This will be the main force for the revival of the Han Dynasty.

It is learned that Gao Shun is better at infantry combat than cavalry.Liu Xie suggested that Lu Bu could escort Gao Shun into Chengyi and assist Zhang Yang in defending the city.Lu Bu himself led elite cavalry to attack outside the city, cooperating inside and outside.

Lu Bu thought it was feasible.

Zhang Yang is his good friend, and Gao Shun helped Zhang Yang defend the city, which is not much different from fighting under his command.

Xun You also suggested that in order to get to Chengyi as soon as possible, Lu Bu should leave the family members of the soldiers in Meiji and take only the elite.At the same time, in order to make their war horses have enough horsepower, some horses can be selected from Meiji as spare horses.

Meiji lacks everything, except horses.

Lu Bu knew very well that Xun You's proposal was not only for the speed of the march, but also meant to keep the family members as hostages.

But he couldn't say no.

He has just arrived and has a bad reputation. Even if the emperor is willing to believe him, others may not be able to believe him.

Taking the family members of soldiers as hostages is the only way to win trust.

"Only His Majesty's order." Lu Bu bowed and accepted the order.

"Rescuing soldiers is like putting out a fire. Qing will go back and clean up before leaving early tomorrow morning."

-

Leaving the imperial tent and returning to his temporary camp, Lu Bu put on the red rabbit the vest given by the emperor.

Chitu is taller and more majestic than ordinary war horses, and wearing a gleaming vest, it looks even more mighty, like a heavenly horse descending from the earth.

"Wow—it's so pretty." Lu Xiaohuan stroked Chitu's neck, loving it. "Aon, I want it too."

It was rare for Lu Bu to respond to the baby girl's request.

The emperor bestows armor and knives, which shows sincerity.

It should be said that the current result is even better than he expected.

If it is not a trap, this will be his best chance to prove himself.

Hearing the commotion outside, Chen Gong also came out of the tent, seeing the vest on Chitu's body, his eyes lit up.

He had seen the armored cavalry in Yuan Shao's army, but compared with the vest in front of him, the vests worn by those armored cavalry were obviously inferior.

The emperor has such a strong strength?No wonder he dared to conquer Meiji with [-] cavalry, and he defeated the right side of the Huns in the first battle, and beheaded the fallen head.

Seeing Chen Gong, Lu Bu stepped forward to salute, and said sincerely, "Gongtai, thanks to your ingenious plan."

Chen Gong was not surprised at all. "General, cherish yourself."

"Gongtai, I have to leave early tomorrow morning, and the families of the soldiers will stay in Meiji. If you don't know how to ride a horse, don't join the army. Stay here and wait for me to come back."

Chen Gong looked at Lu Bu, not quite understanding what Lu Bu meant.

Lu Bu didn't speak, just looked at Chen Gong.

Chen Gong agreed to Lu Bu's request.

He felt that Lu Bu was a little abnormal today, and there was a rare seriousness in his expression that he couldn't refuse.

Besides, even if he wanted to leave, he was not in a hurry, and it wouldn't matter if he stayed in Meiji for an extra ten and a half months.If Lu Bu can win and return, there must be a gift, and he may be able to take some more belongings with him, and the road will be more comfortable.

With Chen Gong's promise, Lu Bu summoned the generals and ordered Qin Yi to stay behind to protect Chen Gong, Mrs. Wei and the families of the soldiers, and the others followed him to help Chengyi.

The generals returned to the camp, and after a long busy day, they selected more than [-] knights and [-] infantry.

In the evening of the same day, Liu Xie sent someone to deliver a thousand horses, some cattle, sheep and dry food.

Lu Bu and others traveled a long distance here, and they suffered a lot due to the shortage of supplies along the way.Now seeing the emperor sending so many supplies, especially knowing that the emperor is not rich, and the food is not richer than them every day, I feel even more grateful.

And the emperor's call to protect the home and the country aroused the blood in their hearts.

The Huns and Xianbei are ravaging their hometown. This battle is not only for the court, but also for themselves.

Different emotions spread in the tired bodies of the soldiers, like a fire, tempering their bodies and minds, and making their eyes look different.

Early the next morning, led by Lu Bu, the soldiers bid farewell to their families and rushed to Chengyi.

Later, Liu Xie also led his troops on the journey.
