Lu Bu's Ambition

Chapter 221
In August of the third year of Chuping (AD 192), the land of Jizhou was filled with a depressive atmosphere. Yuan Shao and Lu Bu's generals had already rushed to the front line, and the war was imminent.

Yecheng!

In the mansion of General Hushi, Yan Shi and Diao Chan were standing on a wooden pier, putting on the exquisite armor for Lu Bu.

The hair on his head was combed neatly, and the sharp-edged cheeks were more stable and grand than before. Seeing the gentle appearance of the two, Lu Bu curled up into a slight smile.

"Don't worry, Yuan Shao will definitely be defeated this time."

Regarding Lu Bu's words, Diao Chan's phoenix eyes flashed with admiration, but Yan Shi, who had long been accustomed to this, smiled gently.

"Husband, you must be careful, there are still Ying'er and Ling'er waiting for you at home."

The familiar words sounded again, Lu Bu was slightly taken aback when he heard it, and then there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, without any words, he just patted Yan's jade hand lightly.

"Daddy~ You're going to win the battle again this time."

The daughter in the house saw her father put on the battle armor again, her little face flushed with excitement, clapping her palms and shouting excitedly.

Haha~ There was a burst of hearty laughter, and Lu Bu hugged his beloved daughter fiercely, "That's right, Daddy is going to fight a big victory this time."

As young and ignorant children, they didn't know what Lu Bu was going to face, but after hearing Lu Lingqi's simple laughter, everyone laughed lightly, and the worries in their hearts were unconsciously relieved.

And Lu Ying, who was wearing neat attire this day, bowed her hands respectfully like a little adult, "I wish my lord father a victory and return."

Seeing his son who looked like a young adult bowing in the room, Lu Bu's eyes were sour, and he resisted stepping forward to hug his son fiercely.

finally!Finally his son can send him off!
Over the past few years, every time the family went to war, there were only his wife and daughter, but his son was lying on the bed and coughing in pain. How much he wanted to see the scene where his father went to war and his son sent him off like other families.

No one could understand Lu Bu's mood in this scene. He hugged his son, and the familiar smell came from the tip of his nose, "Ying'er, remember to study hard with your husband, and go out with your father in the future!"

Cerebellum nodded solemnly. After putting him down, Lu Bu turned around and strode away without turning his head until the figure disappeared outside the door.

Dian Wei, who had been waiting outside the mansion for a long time, saw Lu Bu come out, knelt on one knee and clasped his fists together with the five hundred soldiers behind him, shouting, "Master!"

This time, Dian Wei's eyes were full of confusion, his lord's eye circles were a little red, and his eyes were filled with a layer of bloodshot eyes.

drive~
Turning on the horse and shouting, the red rabbit raised its thick hooves, and stepped on the hard bluestone slab.

"Quick~ what are you doing in a daze." Dian Wei yelled in surprise, and the five hundred soldiers behind him stood up swiftly, and then there was a sound of armor rubbing together with the sound of orderly footsteps.

A black shadow like a long snake kept going away outside the city of Ye. The officials outside the city gate saw Lu Bu off on his journey again.

Similarly, Yuan Shao from Bohai, wearing a golden armor, led an army of [-] to Qinghe. With the arrival of the two heroes in the battle of Jizhou, the flames of the battle had already been ignited.

"My lord, this is the latest battle report." Along the way, Guo Jia and Jia Xu were sitting in a bumpy carriage, and light cavalry came from time to time to deliver the latest news.

Chituma slowly stepped down and walked side by side with the carriage. Rows of bamboo slips were displayed in the huge carriage, and the air was filled with the fragrance of pen and ink.

"Yuan Shao personally led an army of [-] to Qinghe, and the soldiers on the front line are already ready."

When Lu Bu took the bamboo slips and observed them carefully, Jia Xu carefully reported the latest news, while Guo Jia stretched himself.

Yawning tiredly, "My lord, Yuan Shao is fully prepared this time."

And after Lu Bu carefully looked at the bamboo slips in his hand, he threw the letter into the car and said coldly: "The 20 army has suffered a crushing defeat. This time Yuan Shao is just a grasshopper after autumn, and he won't be able to jump for a few days."

With a cold snort, Lu Bu rode away slowly on the red rabbit horse, while the surrounding soldiers shouted loudly after hearing these words.

For a moment, the tens of thousands of troops were full of fighting spirit, and after Jia Xu and Guo Jia in the carriage looked at each other, a smile appeared on the corner of their mouths.

Sure enough, no one in the world can match their master's grasp of morale, and a short sentence says it all.

The weather in August is so hot that it can kill people. It took a short half a month's journey, and Lu Bu's army took a full month to reach Julu.

After coming to the familiar city of Julu again, the blood-stained city walls from last year can no longer see the traces of that brutal battle.

The mound outside the four gates has long been bulldozed, and only a faint black mark remains on the city wall to let people know the bloody battle last year.

When Lu Bu's figure appeared in Julu City, all the soldiers in the city erupted in the loudest shouts, and pairs of fiery adoring eyes stared at the fiery red voice.

Last year, this fiery red figure led more than 20 people to fight against Yuan Shao's [-] troops outside the city. The defeat of Yuan Shao's prestige in the first battle shocked the world.

None of them doubted that they would be defeated this time, this time they had a total of more than [-] troops, and Yuan Shao no longer had the prestige of last year, only only [-] troops.

When Lu Bu's banner was planted on the top of the city, the nearby Qinghe area also received news that Yuan Shao rushed to Qinghe ahead of Lu Bu.

The weather in September was extremely hot, but Yuan Shao's heart was extremely cold. The city of Julu made him feel timid that he dared not set foot there.

The disastrous defeat of the 20 army was an unprecedented blow to him and to the officials and people under his rule. If he forced to fight again in this battle, there might be a mutiny in the army.

As the war in Jizhou is about to ignite, all parts of the world are also targeting here. Cao Cao in Yanzhou has a sense of urgency. Once Lu Bu occupies Jizhou, both Yanzhou and Youzhou will be meat in the mouth of this tiger.

After the army rested for three days, the gates of Julu City opened wide, and a black torrent gushed out continuously, marching forward in the hot weather.

Offensive and defensive exchanges, this time Lu Bu led the army to set off first, igniting the flames of war in Jizhou. When Yuan Shao received the news, he had already led the army Chen Bing and Qinghe Guangchuan, Dongwu City.

In mid-September, Lu Bu's black army appeared under the eyes of these two cities, and Hua Xiong led two thousand flying bear cavalry to cruise around outside the cities.

When Yuan Shao saw this scene, his face became even more ugly. He didn't expect that Lv Bu would actually accept the remnants of Dong Zhuo as his minions.

It was the two thousand cavalry that made him palpitate. Since the defeat of more than ten thousand cavalry under his command last year, until now he has worked so hard to form a cavalry of three thousand.

And these three thousand cavalry can compete with the elite cavalry in this world, and now that the autumn harvest is approaching, I am afraid that Lu Bu will have two thousand elite cavalry in his hands, and the fields under Qinghe's rule will be in trouble.
