Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 228 Lu Shan
Chapter 220 Eight

"No, general. It's too risky." Gao Shun saw that the generals were excited, and Lu Bu's eyes seemed to be beaming with joy. He hurriedly stopped him and said, "General, the most important thing for an army to fight is to seek stability. Now our army is assembled and our combat power is superior. As long as If our cavalry is trapped in Runan, our army will be doomed." Gao Shun is a steady person, and he dislikes this kind of risky tactics.If it is said that Gao Shun did not object to Lu Bu's risky battle in Tianshui, it was because the enemy was strong and we were weak at that time, and he acted out of helplessness.So now, with Dong Zhuojun's strength, facing the Runan Yuan family to take such a big risk, it seems that the gain outweighs the loss.

"Then Gao Shun, in your opinion, how should our army fight?" Gao Shun is the general who Lv Bu relies on the most at present, so Lv Bu's opinion is also very important to Gao Shun, so since Gao Shun objects, Lv Bu must let Gao Shun say Just understand.

"Step by step, steady and steady." Gao Shun said the policy he advocated.

"En." After listening to the opinions of Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, Lu Bu began to close his eyes and meditate, and all the generals looked at me at this time, and I saw that you were a little at a loss.Suddenly Lu Bu's eyes opened, and his eyes sparkled: "I have already made up my mind, Gao Shun will lead all the infantry, and Dian Wei's army of one thousand iron chain horses, according to Gao Shun's strategy, fight steadily and drive all the way to Runan, lure the main force of the enemy. I, Zhang Liao, Wei Xu, and Zang Ba led the remaining [-] cavalry to detour to Runan, trying to capture Runan as quickly as possible and end the war. After the war, Gather the army and Wancheng." Lu Bu ordered with a determined face.

Gao Shun still wanted to say something, but judging by Lu Bu's appearance, it seemed that there would be no change, so he stopped talking.Unlike Gao Shun, Zhang Liao didn't expect that Lu Bu would listen to his opinion this time, and even bring him with Runan. He felt a little emotional in his heart, but Zhang Liao was also concerned about whether people like himself could really capture Runan. Not much sure.

Mount Lu is located between Wancheng and Runan, with Funiu Mountain to the west and Pingding Mountain to the east, Luoyang to the northwest, and Yingchuan Xuchang to the northeast.Usually Lushan is not prosperous, but recently it has ushered in many uninvited guests.Among them, the [-] troops of Niu Fu and Hua Xiong were besieged by Yuan Shu's [-] troops.

"Grandma, it's been several days. No way. If we continue to be surrounded like this, if we don't get killed by others, our army will probably starve to death." Looking at the trench dug by Yuan Shujun at the foot of the mountain, Hua Xiong said in frustration.

"You just have to bear with it. Xiangguo won't ignore us. He will send people to rescue us in a short time. I have already sent people to send out the request letter." Facing the stubborn Hua Xiong, Niu Fu could only comfort him. road.

"Grandma, why is our luck so bad? We have already hit the city of Runan, and Yuan Shu is about to be unable to hold on, but it's raining at this time. It's just raining, that dog, The mother-in-law Yuan Shu actually dug up Rushui, which caused our defeat so far, it is really his grandma's bad luck." Thinking of the heavy rain a few days ago and the defeat of the Xiliang army, Hua Xiong was sweating and angry. uneven.

"Hey, time, luck, and fate. Since it is destined to be so, we have nothing to say. But what I am worried about now is not our reinforcements, but this Yuan Shu. When did he have so many troops? "Niu Fu frowned, pointing at the soldiers and horses going back and forth down the mountain, he said worriedly.

"Yeah, I'm also surprised. When the war first started, I didn't see Yuan Shu with so many troops. Why did they increase so fast these days?" Hua Xiong was also at a loss.

"Hey, the equipment of these soldiers and horses is not the same. It can be seen that they are not Yuan Shu's headquarters. This means that Yuan Shu has come to reinforce the troops. Who will the reinforcements be?" Niu Fu thought about it.

Niu Fu's guess was right, originally Yuan Shu's Runan soldiers and horses were indeed not many.However, the strength of the old Yuan family is intertwined, and there are many powerful soldiers and powerful families who have contacts with the old Yuan family.If Niu Fu and Hua Xiong can work together to win Runan.So even if the old Yuan family could make friends with the world, it would be in vain at this time.But the problem is that Hua Xiong and Niu Fu failed to take Runan in the first place, which gave hope to other forces opposing Dong Zhuo, so they formed a team to help Yuan Shu, which led to the current result.

"General after the report, a group of people came from outside the tent. The leader called himself Cao Cao and said he came to help the general." Yuan Shu was talking with many forces who came to help the camp in the big tent. This was reported by a soldier.

"Oh, Cao A is hiding it?" Yuan Shu obviously didn't expect Cao Cao to come here to help her, so he was a little surprised. "Take me to meet Cao Cao."

When Yuan Shu came to see Cao Cao, he saw Cao Cao standing outside the gate in a long robe, and two big men standing on the left and right were tall and mighty, extraordinary.

"Who are the two people beside Cao Cao? They seem very unusual?" Yuan Shu asked Ji Ling who was beside him when he saw the mighty two people beside Cao Cao.

"Hehe, the Empress General was joking. I see that the two of them are just from reckless backgrounds and have little ability. Why should the Empress General care about such lowly people?" Ji Ling said indifferently to the two people around Cao Cao.

"It's true. My Yuan family has enough food and resources. Even Dong Zhuo is afraid of my Yuan family. A little recklessness is really nothing to worry about. Besides, how can Cao Cao recruit any capable people?" Yuan Shu didn't care about the two people around Cao Cao, so he didn't ask any more questions.

"Hehe, Cao Cao has come from afar to assist Brother Gonglu, please don't dislike him." Seeing Yuan Shu coming out to greet him, Cao Cao hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.After speaking, he pointed to the two people on his left and right and introduced to Yuan Shu: "These two are my younger brothers Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan." It turns out that the young man who followed Cao Cao in this matter is Xiahou who will shine in the future brother.

"Haha, Cao Mengde came from a long way, and I, Yuan Gonglu, naturally welcome them. Since these two are your younger brothers, let's go in together." Yuan Shu welcomed the three of them into the camp with some arrogance.

"I heard that Brother Gong dug up Rushui a few days ago and defeated Dong Zhuo's army. I don't know what Brother Gong intends to do next?" Cao Cao asked Yuan Shu as he walked.

"Hehe, Cao Mengde is well-informed. I plan to destroy Niu Fu and Hua Xiong first, and then report back to the north to destroy Dong Zhuo in one fell swoop. What do you think, brother Mengde?" Seeing that Cao Cao had few soldiers, Yuan Shu seemed to have the intention of coming to seek refuge with him. , I wanted to show my prestige in front of Cao Cao, so I said boldly.

"Brother Gong, you really are a warrior. I heard that Brother Gong's elder brother, Yuan Shao, has raised troops in Jizhou. At this time, he has gathered a group of princes with more than [-] troops and is about to march towards Dong Zhuo. If Brother Gong can take Luoyang one step earlier than Yuan Shao, then Only then can you really show the orthodox demeanor of the Yuan family. Otherwise, if Yuan Shao defeats Dong Zhuo and takes Luoyang, people in the world will only know Yuan Shao, and not you, Yuan Shu." Cao Cao said with some amusement.

"Hmph, Cao Aman, you came to our army, did you come here specifically to make fun of me?" Yuan Shu said angrily after hearing Cao Cao's words.These two brothers, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, have a bad relationship if they are stupid. The two brothers have a competitive relationship in many things.Besides, even though Yuan Shu is the direct son of the Yuan family, he is obviously inferior to Yuan Shao in terms of strength, so it is no wonder that when Cao Cao talked about Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu was a little depressed.

"Hehe, what are you talking about Brother Gong? Cao Cao's trip is not here to cancel Brother Gong, on the contrary, Cao is here to help Brother Gong. You must know that Yuan Shao is the first to advocate the crusade against Dong Zhuo, and he has already gained the upper hand in morals. If we don't do anything else, I'm afraid we won't have the chance to compete with Yuan Shao." Cao Cao said seriously.

"Oh, brother Cao, what's the trick, let's hear it." Hearing Cao Cao's words, Yuan Shu suddenly regained his energy, his eyes brightened and said.

"Hehe, why don't you and I issue a coercive edict to summon the princes from all over the world to come together to challenge Dong Zhuo? With this coercive edict in hand, no matter how powerful Yuan Shao is, our position in the allied forces is unshakable Yes, you and I must be ordered by the emperor to attack Dong Zhuo." Cao Cao said meaningfully.

"Hahaha, Cao Mengde deserves to be Cao Mengde. With this trick, even if Yuan Shao stole the limelight in Jizhou, it was just making wedding dresses for others. Now that our army has just defeated Dong Zhuojun, it is just right to take advantage of this opportunity to spread the word between you and me." All under heaven, come to the alliance." Yuan Shu laughed and said cheerfully.

"However, the location of the alliance cannot be here. Chenliu, where I live now, is a big city, not too far from Luoyang. It is easy for princes to come and go. We might as well form an alliance in Chenliu. What do you think, brother Gao?" Cao Cao asked.

"I think the city of Runan is tall and prosperous, but the road from Runan to Luoyang is difficult and dangerous. It happens that I go to Lushan, which is not far from Chenliu, so that's all. Brother Lao Mengde took care of everything. "Yuan Shu agreed after thinking for a while.

"Brother Gonglu, what did you say? It's just a little consolation." Cao Cao saw that the matter had been settled, so he stopped talking and asked about the current war. "Brother Gonglu has the chance to win now. I don't know when Brother Gonggui will make a move to wipe out all Dong Zhuo's traitors on the mountain."

"Hehe, the turtle in the urn, I'll kill it sooner or later, but it's still a bit tricky right now, why don't you wait. It won't be too late to kill them when their vigor is exhausted." Yuan Shu seemed very sure about eliminating Niu Fu Huaxiong.

"I'm afraid that if time goes by, reinforcements will come from Luoyang." Cao Cao said worriedly.

"Haha, if you, Cao Mengde, don't come, I will inevitably be worried. But now that you, Cao Mengde, are here, I feel a lot more at ease. As long as you, Cao Mengde, come out with a letter of appeal, the world will shake, and Dong Zhuo won't be able to take care of himself. I have time to worry about the life and death of Niu Fu and Hua Xiong." Yuan Shu laughed and expressed his thoughts.

"Hehe, Brother Gong is really extraordinary. If so, Dong Zhuo will be gone." Cao Cao said indifferently.
