Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 483 Yuan Shao prepares for battle
"My lord, the subordinates are willing to lead troops to support the two generals Yu Jin and Le Jin." Just when Lu Bu was hesitating, someone stood up and asked Lu Bu to fight.Lu Bu saw that this person was none other than Zhang Xiu, the prefect of Hanoi.

"I don't know how many soldiers and horses the general plans to lead there?" Lu Bu did not directly agree, but asked after a little consideration.Definitely defeated Wen Chou this time and wiped out Yuan Shao's [-] army. Yuan Shao is not easy to get along with. He may lead an army to Hanoi at any time to make trouble. If Zhang Xiu takes away too many troops, Hanoi's defense will not becomes a problem.

"You only need [-] elite soldiers." Zhang Xiu replied to Lu Bu after a little thought.

"So, let General Lao take a trip. I will stay in Hanoi during this time, and wait for the general to return in triumph." Lu Bu nodded and said.

"Thank you, General." Seeing that Lu Bu agreed, Zhang Xiu was overjoyed. Although Zhang Xiu had only brought [-] soldiers from Hanoi, Zhang Xiu had been in Hanoi for a long time, and he was very familiar with the yellow scarves in Taihang Mountain. Zhang Xiu's general Guo Daxian was From the Yellow Turban, Zhang Xiu planned to use this relationship from the beginning to mobilize the Yellow Turban Army. In this way, even if Yan Liang led the troops out, Zhang Xiu was not afraid.

"Prime Minister, if the situation is unfavorable, what should Wen Chou do?" Just as Zhang Xiu was about to take the order to leave, Dian Wei took a step forward and asked Lu Bu.You must know that Lu Bu and Wen Chou are somewhat friendly. This time, Yu Jin and Le Jin escorted Wen Chou to the Shangdang. Although Zhang Xiu helped, but if the war is ignored, will Yan Liang save Wen Chou and go away?In the case of being unable to win, killing Wen Chou first has become a thorny issue. Wen Chou must be an important figure in Yuan Shao's army. will play a considerable role.

"What do you think, Mr. Guo Jia?" Regarding this question, Lu Bu frowned, but he didn't know what to do for a while, so he asked Guo Jia beside him.

"It depends on the purpose of the prime minister's battle. If the prime minister just wants to teach Yuan Shao a lesson while occupying Bingzhou, then there is no need to kill Wen Chou. As before, the prime minister wants to completely eliminate Yuan Shao's influence. It is better to cut off Yuan Shao as soon as possible. Wings." Seeing Lu Bu asking himself a question, Guo Jia said to Lu Bu with a smile after a little thought.What Guo Jia said was not entirely to give advice to Lu Bu, but Guo Jia also wanted to know the real purpose of Lu Bu's dispatch of troops to Hanoi this time. If Lu Bu just wanted to teach Yuan Shao a lesson, then next, after teaching Yuan Shao, just I am afraid that Lu Bu will lead his troops south to deal with Yuan Shu immediately, and this will undoubtedly have a major impact on Cao Cao's plan. It's another scene.

"Hahaha, Fengxiao is resourceful and resourceful." Hearing Guo Jia's words, Lu Bu laughed, turned to Zhang Xiu and said, "If you can't do it, let Wen Chou live."

When Lu Bu was arranging his plans in Hanoi, Yuan Shao and the crowd of civil and military officials in Yecheng, Jizhou were happily looking at a volume of imperial edict, which was issued by the imperial court, enshrining Yuan Shao as a general.From then on, Yuan Shao became the fourth prince of the fourth generation and three princes of the old Yuan family. Although Yuan Shao's honor and the status of Yuan Shu's self-proclaimed emperor were not the same, but compared with Yuan Shu's siege by the princes, Yuan Shao The situation at that time was better. I don't know how much.

"Hehe, it seems that Lu Bu still doesn't dare to underestimate me. I just submitted a letter to the court to ask for a title, and he immediately agreed without any delay." Looking at the imperial edict in his hand, Yuan Shao said with some joy.

"General, although Lu Bu has satisfied the general's request, he has mobilized [-] elite soldiers to Sizhou, and Gao Shun has occupied half of Bingzhou to plot against the law. The general should make plans early." Seeing Yuan Shao's complacency expression, Ju Shou got up and said to Yuan Shao.Although the current situation does not seem to be unfavorable, Jushou has already seen the crisis from it. Now Lu Bu's power has expanded to four and a half states. As long as Lu Bu is steady and steady, Yuan Shao will hardly pose a threat to Lu Bu. Didn't see it.

"General, now that Gao Shun has entered Bingzhou, I heard that Lu Bu's army is still in collusion with the Yellow Turbans in Taihang Mountain. If they collude with Gongsun Zan in Youzhou, they may cause trouble. Please make a decision early." Jushou just felt that something was wrong, but Tian Feng saw it more clearly. Gao Shun's army entered Bingzhou, and he might not necessarily occupy the entire Bingzhou. A single force is enough to compete with Yuan Shao in Hebei, causing Yuan Shao to sleep and eat, and Lu Bu can free up his strength to deal with Yuan Shu and Cao Cao. Given time, Lu Bu will be strong and unstoppable.And Yuan Shao will definitely fall behind.

"Why do you two raise others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige? Gongsun Zan is just a dying man. As long as Yuan Gong moves his fingers, Gongsun Zan will be wiped out in an instant; and the Yellow Turban Army is called a million, but they are just a bunch of chicken tiles. Dogs, when Zhang Jiao was there, he didn't achieve much. Now he just hides in the mountains and survives. As for Gao Shun, he is only a small official under Ding Yuan. He only became famous because he followed Lu Bu. Although Gao Shun has a high status in Lv Bu's army now, he has been pampered and pampered all these years. He just guarded Lv Bu's house in the rear. Such generals can destroy our army with a snap of a finger. So this Hebei territory is still our army's territory Seeing that both Jushou and Tian Feng said the situation in front of them was extremely serious, Guo Tu jumped out and curled his lips, but raised objections.

"Report, the military report came from the front line, General Wen Chou was defeated, and the entire [-] army was wiped out." Just as everyone was still arguing, some soldiers rushed in from the outside in a hurry and reported to Yuan Shao.

"What?" Upon hearing the soldier's report, Yuan Shao was taken aback immediately, because the joy of the imperial court's recognition of him as a general was swept away, but then Yuan Shao came back to his senses, and asked: "Wen Chou Where are you and Ju Yi, why don't you bring them up to me?" Yuan Shao didn't see Wen Chou and Ju Yi, and only thought that Wen Chou and Ju Yi didn't show up because they felt ashamed to see him because the whole army was wiped out, so he was angry roared.

"My lord, the two generals Wen Chou and Ju Yi have been captured alive by Lu Bu's army." The soldier quickly replied.

"What? Even Wen Chou and Ju Yi were captured alive?" If Yuan Shao was shocked by the annihilation of the [-] army, then the capture of Wen Chou and Ju Yi made Yuan Shao feel even more shocked. It is unbelievable that both Wen Chou and Ju Yi are veterans in Yuan Shao's army who are used to fighting. Such characters have failed so thoroughly, so Yuan Shao dare not imagine how completely he will fail after he and Lu Bu start a full-scale war.

"Did Lu Bu arrive in Hanoi?" Just when Yuan Shao was in shock and didn't know what to do, Xu You who was beside him keenly grasped the point and asked the soldier.

"Yes, some of the soldiers who escaped did see Lu Bu appear." Hearing Xu You's question, the soldier replied hesitantly.

"My lord, since Lu Bu has already arrived in Hanoi, the failure of General Wen Chou and General Ju Yi is nothing to worry about." Hearing the soldier's answer, Xu You finally breathed a sigh of relief, turned to Yuan Shao and said.

"Has Lu Bu arrived in Hanoi? What do you guys think?" After hearing the news that Lu Bu came to Hanoi, everyone's faces were relaxed. With Lu Bu's strength, Wen Chou and Ju Yi's failure must be reasonable up.

"My lord, now that Lv Bu has come to Hanoi, we should concentrate all our forces to wipe out Lv Bu in one go." Guo Tu suddenly stood up and said to Yuan Shao.

"Guo Tu, do you want the lord to perish in a single battle?" Hearing Guo Tu's opinion, Tian Feng stood up in shock and roared at Guo Tu.

"Hmph, Mr. Tian Feng, didn't you say that our army will face pressure from Gongsun Zan, the Yellow Turban Army, and Lu Bu? For the current plan, only by going all out and destroying Lu Bu in one go can our army turn the crisis into safety." .Does our army have to sit and wait for the enemy to slowly nibble away?" Guo Tu snorted coldly, citing Tian Feng's words just now.

"This." Tian Feng was speechless for a moment when Guo Tu said this. It is true that the situation Yuan Shao is facing now is not optimistic. It is true that an all-out attack has little chance of winning, but if he does not take the initiative to attack, he has no intention of sitting still and waiting for death.

"My lord, please be safe and don't be impatient. Although Lu Bu is coming aggressively this time, it is actually just a trick of Lu Bu's deception. Now Lu Bu's biggest enemy must be Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor in Shouchun, and Lu Bu had no choice but to attack Yuan Shu. The lord is in Hebei, so he poses a greater threat to Lu Bu, that's why Lu Bu sent troops into Bingzhou to join forces with Gongsun Zan and the Yellow Turban Army. In fact, Lu Bu's goal is to delay our army so that we can deal with Yuan Shu. Now as long as I The army has shown sincerity, and they are unwilling to embarrass our army even if they want to come to Lu Bu. Then our army will be able to find a suitable fighter when Lu Bu and Yuan Shu go to war, and wipe out these two powerful enemies in one fell swoop.” He Tianfeng and Guo Tu have different views. Xu You's view is much more optimistic, but this optimism is based on a judgment, that is, Lu Bu does not want to have a final decisive battle with Yuan Shao.

"Xu You, back then you had some friendship with Lu Bu, so you should go to Hanoi to meet Lu Bu and listen to what he has to say." After Yuan Shao's eyes flickered for a while, it was difficult to make a decision, and he didn't want to give up the suggestion with Xu You, so he rushed Xu You said, of course, before Xu You and Lu Bu reached an agreement, Yuan Shao still had to mobilize all forces to prepare for the war.After all, only strong strength is the foundation of any negotiation.
