Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 857

"Father, what should we do?" Lu Ju panicked.

Lu Fan opened several letters and found that the contents were almost the same. They all told the frontline soldiers to give up resistance. Their homes were gone and their food was cut off. Only by surrendering could they survive.

"Impossible, it must be Lan Tian's trick. I've been wondering why this guy didn't leave with such a huge loss. It turned out that he was holding back such a conspiracy." Lu Fan squeezed the envelope into a ball, firmly believing that he was Jianye. home is still there.

"But those food deliverers are all familiar faces in the past. If these letters are imitated by Lan Tian, ​​wouldn't it mean Yichun City." Lu Ju didn't dare to continue.

Lu Fan swallowed his saliva. If Yixing was really lost, it would deal a greater blow to his soldiers than Xin. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked in a deep voice, "Has the letter been leaked?"

"Probably not yet, but it's not easy to say." Lu Ju didn't open the grain bag himself, so he can't guarantee that it hasn't been leaked.

"All these letters are sealed up, or they are secretly organized to burn them all. Don't let these family letters destroy the morale we have finally picked up." Lu Fan turned and wanted to leave after speaking.

Lu Ju hurriedly asked, "Father, where are you going?"

"It's almost time to send out troops. I have to stabilize the generals first. If not, I can only send people to Yixing. The most urgent thing is food and grass." Lu Fan looked serious.

"Oh." Lu Ju nodded slightly.

Lu Fan followed Dama to the west of the city. The soldiers of the Wu army had already lined up, and they just waited for Lu Fan to be in place before leaving.

"General Ziheng is here." Quan Cong pointed to the horseman under the city gate, and Zhu Huan and the others straightened up their clothes and stepped forward to greet him.

Lu Fan glanced at the neat team and asked knowingly, "Are you all ready?"

"General, the brigade is ready to start at any time, just waiting for your order." Sun Song responded with cupped fists.

"That's right, that's right." Lu Fan nodded first, and then suddenly said, "The soldiers have been fighting hard for the past few days, and the battalions should rest at the station today."

"Huh? General Ziheng, we can't give Lantian a chance to breathe, otherwise he will take the opportunity to repair the antlers and arrow towers, and our next attack will be more difficult." Cheng Zi stepped forward to advise.

"That makes sense." Lu Fan stroked his beautiful beard deeply, and immediately added: "General Cheng will work hard for you today, and lead his troops to attack the enemy camp, so you must not let Lantian breathe."

"Could the general be joking? The last general has only a few thousand pieces, and Lan Ji is very brave." Cheng Zi didn't want to shoot a stone in the foot, so he reminded Lu Fan that he has few major generals, so don't make fun of me.

Lu Fan replied solemnly: "You are mainly harassing. If Lan Tian leads an army to attack, he can't fight recklessly. In addition, I will let Zi Huang (Quan Cong) go to meet you."

"Wei." Quan Cong cupped his fists.

"Uh Wei." Cheng Zi had no choice but to accept the order.

After Lu Fan finished speaking, he got on his horse and went back to the city. Brother Zhu Huan was very puzzled when he saw what happened.

"General, what are you doing today?" Zhu Huan hesitated to speak.

Lu Fan turned around and saw that it was brothers Zhu Huan and Zhu Ju. He thought that the fighting strength of these two men was quite strong, and their martial arts were also outstanding. No supplies arrived, I suspect that something is wrong with Yichun, Luo Gongxu's garrison is only [-], if something happens, the tens of thousands of troops will be killed."

"No wonder the general is so abnormal today." Zhu Huan suddenly realized.

Zhu Ju comforted: "Maybe there is a delay? After all, the front line consumes a lot of food and grass, and Yichun has limited food reserves in the early stage. Maybe Jianye's food transportation is not timely?"

"What Zifan said is also reasonable, but I'm still worried about Yichun, why don't you take your troops to see? If the tens of thousands of troops are really short of food, it's impossible to defeat Lantian hungry." Lu Fan looked at Zhu's house Brother gestured.

Zhu Ju hesitated at first, but Zhu Huan clasped his fists and said, "Let's go and have a look, the general stays in Pingxiang and waits for the good news."

"Please." Lu Fan cupped his fists in return.

Zhu Huan and Zhu Ju then marched towards Yichun with [-] pieces of songs. Along the way, they marched very fast with light clothes and arrived at the city around dusk.

At this time the city gate had been closed, and Zhu Huan led his team to approach the gate, when suddenly a blue banner was erected on the top of the city gate.

Seeing the blue letter, Zhu Huan knew something was wrong, but Luo Tong's head poked out from the city.

"Gongxu? What are you doing with the blue banner? I thought Yichun was lost, but I won't like this in the future. Open the city gate quickly." Zhu Huan pointed at the banner on the city and let out a long sigh of relief.

Luo Tong had already surrendered to Lan Yuan, he clasped his fists in salute and said, "Forgive me, General Zhu, Luo has surrendered to the King of Hanzhong, and Yichun is also the city of the King of Hanzhong. If the general wants to go to the city to rest, he must put down his weapons and surrender."

"What did you say just now? You made such a rebellious statement?" Zhu Ju was furious.

Luo Tong was condescending and snorted coldly: "I think I have made it clear just now, if you want to enter Yichun, you have to surrender."

"My husband!" Zhu Huan was about to insult him when he suddenly saw a young general in gold armor appearing on the tower, Luo Tong respected him very much.

Lan Yuan cupped his hands and saluted downward: "Are you two generals, Xiumu (Zhu Huan) and Zifan (Zhu Ju)? I have long admired your name. Yichun has fallen into my hands, and the officials of Jianye have also surrendered to the King of Hanzhong. It's protected, so what are you waiting for?"

"You have a big breath, even if Qiqichun City is attacked by surprise, Jianye will never fall. Since there is a blue banner on the city, what is your relationship with that Lantian?" Zhu Huan frowned.

"I am Lanyuan, and Lantian is my father." Lanyuan replied lightly.

Zhu Ju murmured softly: "This man is the eldest son of Lantian. It is said that Linyi Kingdom was destroyed in fifteen days. Brother, don't underestimate the enemy because of his youth."

Zhu Huan nodded lightly, and said to himself that I had read the Lingnan Daily, Lan Yuan's name was more resounding than Lan Ji, and Lan Ji's force was so exaggerated, it was impossible for him to underestimate the enemy.

"It turned out to be the son-in-law of the king of Hanzhong. If you can sneakily capture Yichun, it must be Luo Tong who is soft-boned and dedicated to the city? You father and son are too naive to want to trap us. Can't this general bypass this city? Hmph." Zhu Huan intentionally Saying this is used to hide the tension in my heart.

Because Zhu Huan left in a hurry, the whole army only took one day's rations, so all the luggage was left in Pingxiang. At this time, he could only sleep in the open if he couldn't enter Yichun, let alone travel around Yichun. At this time, he was just talking .

"General Zhu really wants to go there? Maybe I won't harass you. You probably don't know that Yuzhang and Luling have been captured, so what if you are allowed to go there?" Lan Yuan showed her white teeth.

"What?" Zhu Huan didn't believe it.

Zhu Ju hurriedly asked: "Lan Yuan is talking nonsense, what should we do now? Go around the city at night?"

"Back for five miles, rest where you are, and wait until dawn." Zhu Huan decided whether to go or not. He should inform Lu Fan first. If the soldiers and horses from Pingxiang were transferred, he didn't believe that Lan Yuan would be able to stop him.

"Uh, that's fine." Zhu Ju immediately ordered the army to retreat.

Lan Yuan watched and nodded from the tower, and then told Gao Ling: "Zhu Huanguo is not a reckless person. He just got a lot of letters from home at dusk. It's been a long night and it's hard to sleep. You lead the team and send the letters to General Zhu to relieve the boredom."

"Hey, Boyang, you have no good intentions." Gao Ling clasped his fists and nodded, thinking that the brothers of the Zhu family really read the family letter, and they might not be able to sleep tonight.

Lan Yuan smiled slightly: "I don't think the letters that were sent yesterday were fully circulated. Today's timing seems to be better."
