Chapter 222 Raising a Tiger
After the tasks were assigned, everyone performed their duties. As the advance force, Lu Bu led two thousand horsemen under him to rush to Luoshui that afternoon.

On the wide official road, dust is flying.

Two days later, Huangfusong's army also successfully arrived east of Lishui, and successfully rounded up with Lu Bu.

By the time Bocai led his army to the west of Lishui, it was already dusk the next day.

The yellow turban scouts who went out to explore the way turned back and reported to Bocai: "Shuai Qu, the Han army is camping across the river, and it seems they want to stop us."

Bo Cai, who was riding a tall horse, reined in his horse's head, showing disdain, "A group of rats are trying to stop me, it's beyond their control!"

"Let's go, let's follow this commander to defeat the Han army."

He was wearing armor, with a yellow robe tied to his shoulders, and he had thick brows and a square face, and his beard was upside down. He had the majesty of a tiger.

Just when Bo was about to send his troops to fight directly against the Han army to compete, the lieutenant beside him, You Yu, advised him: "Commander Qu, the soldiers have been on the road for a long time, and they are all exhausted, and now the sun is setting. Mountain, the sky will soon fall into the night. Most of our troops are infantry, which is not conducive to fighting at night. It is better to repair for a while, and tomorrow we will compete with the Han army."

Hearing this, Bo Cai slightly raised his head to look at the sky, and then looked back at the tired crowd. A person who can be handsome in a big square must not be a fool or an idiot.

He nodded, and shouted in a rough voice: "Let's set up camp and rest for the time being, and cheer up Lao Tzu tomorrow, and try to kill ten or eight Han soldiers for everyone, do you hear me?"

"I heard it!" The soldiers shouted in unison, and the low morale instantly rose.

With the experience of the Changsha fire, Bo Cai learned to be smart and knew that he would camp near the river and face the Han army across the water.

Even if there is a fire, it can be extinguished in the first time.

The soldiers started to set up the camp, and taking advantage of the cooking time, Bo Cai recruited the lieutenant general and said to him, "Go and write the letter of war to Huangfu, and invite him to fight tomorrow."

On the bank of the river to the east of the river, stood two figures, one tall and one lower.

Looking at the smoke from the kitchen on the other side of the river, Lu Bu glanced sideways at the thin young man who was much shorter than him, and the admiration in his heart was beyond words.

He asked Xi Ce: "Sir, how did you make sure that the moth thief dared not cross the river?"

With his hands in his hands, Xi Ce looked at the slightly rippling river, but didn't answer, letting Lu Bu figure it out by himself.

If he had said all of these things, how would Lu Bu grow up?

It was still late, and the fatigue of the soldiers was certainly the reason, but it was not the most important point.

Most of the Yellow Turban soldiers are poor peasants, with their faces facing the loess and their backs facing the sky.

Force them into an army. Although they have a great advantage in numbers, they lack cooperative training, which is typical of organization and lack of discipline.In the fight with the officers and soldiers, they would only use reckless force and fight indiscriminately without any focus.

Besides, the southerners are not good at riding horses. Among the [-] Yellow Turbans, there are only a thousand cavalry troops that can be assembled.

Lu Bu frowned and thought for a while.

When Xi Ce heard the answer, his face was happy.He knew very well that Lu Bu was not actually stupid, but he didn't like to use his brain and liked to rely on other people's opinions in everything.

This is not a good habit.

Now Lu Bu can rely on himself, if one day, he is gone...

There was a trace of sadness in the deep eyes, and he knew that that day would not be too long.

What's more, people who are wiser than him in the world are like crucian carp crossing the river.

Therefore, before that day comes, Lu Bu must be cultivated with the vision and strategy that a hegemon should possess.

Lu Bu naturally didn't know what Xi Ce was thinking, but it made him extremely happy that his insights could be confirmed by Xi Ce.

Orioles and willows hang down by the river, and the breeze is gentle, refreshing.

Under the guise of investigating the enemy's situation, the two came out to enjoy the cool and wind.

In the hot and dry summer, apart from rolling in the water, I believe there is nothing more refreshing than the river breeze.

"Then what if your guess is wrong, sir?" Lu Bu asked curiously.

Guess wrong?

Xie Ce was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Wouldn't that be better, if the moth thief is really determined and strong, that's the rhythm of the direct collapse."

General Zuo Zhonglang was watching the movements of the moth thieves all the time, and if they were crossing the river now, they would definitely be attacked by half crossing.

At that time, the Han army only needs one battle to succeed.

huh~
Lu Bu's ears twitched, his brows sank slightly, and he, who was born with sensitive senses, already sensed the danger, so he quickly called out, "Mr., be careful!"

Such a piercing sound was very familiar to him.

The arrow shot from the other side of the river seemed to have lost its aim, and it was firmly inserted into the soil not far from his feet.

Lu Bu walked over, pulled out the shaft of the arrow, and untied the long square piece of bamboo tied to it.

After a glance, it turned out to be the gauntlet of the moth thief.

Lu Bu didn't stay any longer, turned around and went back to the camp, and informed Huang Fusong of the matter.

When Huangfusong, who was studying the terrain in the tent, heard this, his expression didn't fluctuate much, and he was still focusing on the terrain on the map.

Seeing that he was so careless, Lu Bu asked tentatively, "Don't fight?"

"Don't worry." Huangfusong moved the route in the picture.His tone was very calm.

Huangfu Song was not in a hurry, but Lu Bu was very anxious. He was eagerly looking forward to the end of the rebellion as soon as possible, so he asked again: "Forgive the general, why don't you ask the general why you don't fight?"

General Zuo Zhonglang, who enjoys the reputation of "Tiger of the Empire", raised his head and called Lu Bu to him, pointing his fingers at the picture: "Look, this is Xinzheng, and here is Yangdi, the prefecture. .”

"Meng De went to feign surrender. Not only did he have to cross Xingshan Mountain, but he also had to avoid the main force of the Yellow Turbans on the way, and the [-] elite soldiers he led were mostly infantry. It would take at least four or five days for him to reach Yangdi. "

Huangfusong's intention of not engaging in the battle was obvious, it was to use the same wave to hold back the main force of the Yellow Turbans, so as to buy more time for Cao Cao.

If Bocai retreats to Yangdi after defeating the Mothie tomorrow, Cao Cao's plan to capture Yangdi may come to naught.

So Huangfusong can't let Bocai go back to do bad things, he has to delay until a suitable time, not only can defeat this group of moth thieves, but also recover Yangdi.

After Lu Bu understood, he didn't say any more.

Seeing Lu Bu come out, Lu Bu told Huang Fusong's decision without waiting for him to ask.

After listening to Xi Ce, he frowned.

Although Huangfusong had a good idea, how could he guarantee that even if the Han army did not fight, the moth thieves would not attack?
At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Xi Ce's mind.

Suddenly, a flash of light rushed into my mind.

Xie Ce laughed, and he asked Lu Bu: "General, the moth thieves have just arrived. As the host, is it a little unreasonable not to clean them up tonight?"

 Chapter two, two and two, three twos, I don’t know if there was a day when all four twos were collected, the recommendation votes skyrocketed this week, so I was very happy...
