The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 584
Lu Bu's army marched towards Hanoi County, and at the same time, the letter to Yuan Shao had also flown to Jizhou.

In the council hall of the State Shepherd's Mansion, there are a lot of talents, there are 40 to [-] people, gathered a large number of civil and military officials under Yuan Shao.

What is different from the past is that there are three more unfamiliar faces in the meeting hall today.

The three stood outside the hall. The man in the middle looked gentle, but had a pair of eye-catching big earlobes. The two next to him stood behind this man. One had a leopard head and eyes, and a strong physique. The other was nine feet long. , Jujube Silkworm Eyebrows.

All of them are extraordinary in appearance.

These three people are the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang who have become famous recently.

After successfully rescuing Kong Rong, the governor of Beihai County, Liu Bei's reputation and momentum have grown a lot.Later, Yuan Shao sent General Qu Yi to attack Qingzhou, and Liu Bei was ordered to guard Gaotang and blocked Qu Yi.

However, at that time, moth thieves resurgent in Qingzhou were rampant, and the grain and grass transported to Gaotang were robbed many times. Under internal and external troubles, Liu Bei had to abandon the city, but he was subdued by Qu Yi on the way. Can choose to surrender.

Knowing Liu Bei's submission, Yuan Shao was overjoyed, and specially sent someone to bring Liu Bei to Ye, and treated him as a guest of honor.

Although Liu Bei once helped Qingzhou Governor Tian Kai to fight against him, Yuan Shao was a man who cherished his feathers. Liu Bei was in the name of a royal family member. Whether it is true or not is unknown, but at least the people recognized it.

Yuan Shao wanted to take this opportunity to show off to the world and gain a good reputation of courtesy, virtuousness and humility.

However, Lu Bu's letter made Yuan Shao's face change suddenly. He clenched his right fist and slammed on the desk, and couldn't restrain himself from roaring angrily: "Bastard!"

Yuan Shao's sudden anger made all the officers and generals below confused, and Biejia Tianfeng, who was standing in the front row, came out and asked, "My lord, has something serious happened?"

Holding the letter in his hand, Yuan Shao gritted his teeth: "This guy Lu Bu is really deceiving people! He actually asked me for 200 million stones of grain and grass in a high-sounding manner, and said it was for the people of Wen County. It sounds good, but I am short-sighted. Where can I gather so much food and grass for him within the time limit!"

The food and clothing expenses of ordinary people for a month are only five or six stones of grain.Calculated in this way, a total of 200 million stones is enough to feed hundreds of thousands of people.

The same goes for the military.

Yuan Shao is not a fool, how could he give 200 million stones of grain and grass for nothing, and he would not be a lamb at the slaughter.What's more, now Yuan Shao's advisers are like a cloud, with more than [-] men in armor, and he thinks that his strength is not weaker than Lu Bu.

Knowing that Lu Bu asked Jizhou for such a huge amount of food and grass, all the counselors and generals in the meeting hall exploded.

"My lord, Lu Bu killed my cousin Gao Yuan, and now he is intimidating the lord, it's extremely arrogant! Is it tolerable or unbearable, the final general asks to be the vanguard, to frustrate Lu Bu's spirit."

Under the hall, a young general came out and spoke loudly. Seeing the expression on his face, he was obviously extremely angry.

Everyone regards him as a senior officer of the General Xunlu.

In terms of seniority, Gao Gan is Yuan Shao's nephew. In private, whenever the family feasts, Gao Gan is often referred to as "uncle".Relying on this level of relationship, the official title of high-ranking cadres can be promoted all the way up.

Yuan Shao understood that Gao Gan wanted to avenge his cousin.

But as the person in power in Jizhou, he obviously couldn't just listen to one-sided words. He glanced around the hall and set his sights on the few confidants in the front.

"My lord, Lv Bu's eastward trip to Hangu Pass this time is ostensibly under the banner of the emperor and the court, saying that he is going to attack Li Jue and Guo Si who are entrenched in Changshan County. But who can guarantee that he has no intention of getting involved in Jizhou?"

Ju Shou, who had a strong sense of urgency, hit the nail on the head, assuming that the food and grass that Lv Bu asked for was only 200 to [-] shi, maybe Yuan Shao could still give it.But when you open your mouth, it costs [-] million stones, and it is difficult for a strong man to break it purely.

Once Yuan Shao refuses to give it, Lu Bu will have a reason to attack Jizhou.

Jushou saw this very clearly.

"My lord, what you said is right. Regardless of whether we can get together 200 million shi of grain or not, even if we can get together, we must never give it to Lu Bu. Everyone knows that Lu Bu is a jackal and a bloodthirsty man." Sex, if he enters Jizhou, it will be bloody and bloody, and he will be a living creature..."

"I'm not afraid of him being number one in the world, my lord, let's do it with him!"

"That's right, let Lu Bu know that this is Jizhou, not his Guan Yong's land!"

This time, almost all of them, whether they were literati, counselors or generals, reached a consensus tacitly, that is, food and grass must not be given to Yilu Bu.

The civil and military under his command are united, ready to fight.

When Yuan Shao saw this, his ambition was instantly boosted, and he immediately shouted and made a decision: "Okay, since you have such ambitions, then I will lead the soldiers from Hebei to fight against Lu Bu!"

As soon as these words came out, all the counselors and generals in the hall clasped their hands together and shouted: "My lord is wise!"

However, after Yuan Shao made his decision, a group of civil and military officials under him had a dispute over strategic goals.

"My lord, if Lv Bu came from Hanoi after a long journey, our army can take advantage of his exhaustion to outflank Yangju from both sides and tail, and then annihilate the enemy in one go!" Since leading Jizhou, the trial and distribution has been entrusted with the task of confidant, and the head of the shogunate. In military operations, he often makes suggestions and takes the initiative to attack.

"No!"

As soon as the judge finished speaking, Ju Shou, who was in charge, stood up and said loudly: "My lord, Lu Bu has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he is brave and good at fighting. Even if our army makes a surprise attack, we may not be able to win the victory quickly."

"What do you think should be done?" Yuan Shao asked.

"Stick and stick to it!"

This is the answer given by Jushou. Jizhou is extremely far away from Chang'an, and Lu Bu's coming from a long distance will inevitably stretch the entire front line very long. As a result, it will be difficult to supply supplies.

Therefore, as long as he waits for work with ease and guards the cities in the state, Lu Bu, who can't afford it, will definitely retreat.

"My lord, time doesn't wait for me. Instead of passively holding on, it's better to fight quickly!"

"Think twice, my lord, perseverance is the best policy!"

"Nonsense, you are afraid of death, you should attack!"

"Reckless man, persistence is the truth!"

The civil and military officials who had been unanimous just now started arguing again.

"Brother, why don't you invite me to be a pioneer too!" the young man with the bristling beard urged in a low voice.

Liu Bei didn't look back, pretended not to hear, just sat in his seat without saying a word, like an old monk in meditation.

He doesn't know what the third brother thinks.

Yuan Shao was extremely troubled by the quarrel, whether it was offense or defense, he felt that it was feasible, but none of these counselors were willing to back down, and the quarrel was unstoppable.

Coincidentally at this moment, Yuan Shao's eyes fell on Liu Bei, who was inconspicuous behind him, and he asked, "Xuande, what do you think about this matter?"

Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Yuan Shao to openly call his name, but he reacted so quickly, far beyond anyone's reach, he cupped his hands and said humbly, "Duke Ming, Bei's lack of intelligence is far less far-sighted than your advisers and generals."

He first praised everyone, and after seeing the appreciative expressions of Shen Pei, Guo Tu and others, he continued: "However, there is one thing that Bei has doubts about."

"What doubts does Xuande have?" Yuan Shao followed the words and asked.

Everyone in the hall also looked at Liu Bei.

Liu Bei didn't go around, and came slowly: "Since Lu Bu is going to Jizhou from Hanoi, he must pass Liyang, Baima and other counties on the way. However, these places are not under your jurisdiction, Duke Ming. So I don't know. Will you allow Lu Bu to borrow a way?"
