Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 632 Huang Zhongwei Yan
Not long after Jiangxia City was occupied by Liu Bei, in Xiangyang City, in a luxurious courtyard, Lu Bu and several important subordinates were discussing matters.

"My lord, news came from Jiangxia that Jiangdong dispatched an army to capture Jiangxia. General Gao Lan was defeated and had already abandoned the city." Xun Yu said after standing up and bowing to Lu Bu.

"Oh, so Sun Quan's action is not slow, he called so quickly." Hearing the news, Lu Bu said a little playfully.

"Sun Quan has been planning for a long time. Now that the Lord has been seriously injured, he will not let go of this opportunity. In this way, it will be easier for the Lord to take Jiangdong." Hearing what Lu Bu said, Pang Tong next to him also Open your mouth and say.

"Who led the troops to attack Jiangxia this time?" Lu Bu asked Xun Yu with a slight smile.

"I heard that it was a man named Lu Xun. This man came from a famous family, but he was valued by Sun Quan at a young age, which shows that this man is indeed extraordinary." Xun Yu replied after thinking about it for a while.

"Lu Xun? Jiangdong really has a lot of talents. Not to mention Zhou Yu, Lu Su's talent is also worthy of attention. Now there is another Lu Xun. If these people can work for me, my navy will be much stronger. "Hearing Lu Xun's name, Lu Bu couldn't help but sighed. In comparison, his navy generals were really weak.

"My lord, why do you mind? These naval generals in Jiangdong are just prepared for the lord. Now even Zhang Zhao has surrendered to the lord. Lu Su, Lu Xun and others will submit to the lord sooner or later." At this time, Pang Tong said , obviously, as a person who has experienced it, he is still very experienced in these things.

"Haha, what you said is right. After this battle, there will be no distinction between Jiangdong and Jiangbei, and there will only be big men in the world." Hearing what Pang Tong said, Lu Bu laughed, and continued: "Since Zhou Yu sent Lu Xun to test our reality, we Of course we can't let him down, Mr. Xun Yu, you can arrange this matter."

"Don't worry, my lord. I will arrange for the defenders of Jingzhou's counties to support Jiangxia, but in this way, Xiangyang will be empty. If Zhou Yu attacks, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with it." Xun Yu understood Lu Bu's meaning, but The situation in Xiangyang is still a little worried.

"Hehe, don't worry about this matter. Although I have fewer soldiers and horses, I can still defend Xiangyang City." Lu Bu laughed and waved his hands to let Xun Yu not worry.

"I don't know who will take the unified command of the dispatch of troops to Jiangxia this time?" Seeing what Lu Bu said, Xun Yu continued to ask.

"There is no need to set up a chief general. Let the counties send their own troops. I also want to see if there are any outstanding generals in the Jingzhou army." Lu Bu said after a little thought.

"My lord, this battle is no small matter. My lord is also the honor and disgrace of the rise and fall of a great man. The guards on the side of Xiangyang must not relax. From now on, my lord should mobilize additional troops so that they can be called at any time." At this time, Pang Tong beside him said , obviously still worried about Lu Bu's safety.

"Since you all think so, then let Zhang He lead the troops to guard Xiangyang." Seeing that both of them said so, Lu Bu also felt that there was no need to take risks, so he said.

"I'll do it right now." Seeing that the arrangements had been made, Xun Yu stood up and said goodbye.

"Mr. Pang Tong, Zhang Liao's soldiers and horses have arrived in Yong'an. You go there and send troops to Jiangdong while Sun Quan is attacking Jingzhou." Seeing that Xun Yu had left, Lu Bu explained to Pang Tong.

It turned out that Lu Bu had secretly mobilized Zhang Liao's soldiers and horses, and wanted to take this opportunity to pacify Jiangdong in one fell swoop.

"Sun Quan and Zhou Yu thought they were smart, but they didn't expect that my lord will go to Yong'an right now." Hearing Lu Bu's arrangement, Pang Tong's eyes lit up. Pang Tong thought that Lu Bu would use his own power to attack Jiangdong. Unexpectedly, Lu Bu had already arranged to use Zhang Liao's troops from Yizhou, and Jiangdong would not notice it. In this way, Jiangdong could be shared directly without anyone noticing. There is no chance.

"Governor, Xun Yu has ordered all counties in Jingzhou to mobilize troops to attack Jiangxia. It seems that they want to take Jiangxia back. What should we do?" Hearing the news that Xun Yu had mobilized troops from Jingzhou counties, Lu Su hurriedly reported to Zhou Yu.At present, Lu Su has arranged a lot of eyeliners in Jingzhou. Naturally, such a large-scale army transfer cannot be hidden from Lu Su.

"Really, Sturgeon's movements are not slow. I wonder who is the commander in chief this time?" Hearing Lu Su's news, Zhou Yu nodded and asked.

"It's strange to say that this time Xun Yu asked all the counties to send troops to attack Jiang Xia, but he didn't say who he would be the commander in chief. It's really strange to say this." Hearing Zhou Yu's question, Lu Su also said suspiciously .

"Hahaha, that's good, that's good." Unexpectedly, when Lu Su said this, Zhou Yu laughed out loud, as if he was very proud.

"Governor, what's so ridiculous about this?" Seeing Zhou Yu's behavior, Lu Su asked suspiciously.

"Hmph, Jiang Xia was captured, and Xun Yu could only mobilize the soldiers and horses of the counties in Jingzhou. It is true that he could not mobilize the soldiers and horses of Lu Bu's direct line. This shows that Lu Bu was indeed seriously injured. Because Xun Yu did not have Lu Bu's permission, he was unable to mobilize these powerful soldiers. He can only use the Jingzhou army as a powerful general, and what's even more ridiculous is that he didn't even send a decent general. I think Xun Yu is afraid that these generals will have real power and it will be difficult for him to control him. In this way, Lu Bu's injury is really unclear. I'm afraid I'm going to return to the West soon." Zhou Yu explained coldly.

"Um, Commander-in-Chief, such an explanation is a bit far-fetched." Lu Su blinked. Although Zhou Yu's guess cannot be said to be completely unreasonable, such an explanation is obviously far-fetched. Very high, it is obviously far-fetched to say that he cannot mobilize other generals.

"Now, the emptiness of Jingzhou is the time for our army to use our troops. Pass down the order, and the whole army will set off and march into Xiangyang." Seeing that Lu Su hesitated, Zhou Yu waved his hand to stop Lu Su, and sent the order.

Following Zhou Yu's order, the Jiangdong warship sailed out in mighty force, pointing directly at Xiangyang.

"General Huang Zhong, Jiangxia was occupied by Jiangdong thieves, and the order was issued to all the counties to send troops to take Jiangxia back. After thinking about it, the general is not young, but among my generals in Changsha, he is still second to none. , This battle should be led by a general, it is very appropriate." Han Xuan, the prefect of Changsha, said to a tall old general with white beard and hair, that this person was none other than Huang Zhong.

"Master Taishou, I, Huang Zhong, only want to stay in Changsha and surround Changsha in this life, and I don't want to go out to fight. What's more, I am too old to fight on the battlefield." Seeing that Han Xuan wanted to lead his own troops, Huang Zhong Zhong arched his hands and said.

"Of course, I understand what the old general means. It's just that people are under the eaves, so how can we not bow our heads. Now you and I are the subjects of the big man, so naturally we have to obey the military order of the big man. The general leads the troops there, and there is no need to really fight the enemy. , just take a ride to let other counties know that we have also sent troops, and the general is also encircling Changsha by doing so, the general does not want to be accused of disrespect by Kang Ming because of this time, right? " Seeing that Huang Zhong was unwilling to lead his troops, Han Xuan sighed and said to Huang Zhong.

"Hey, since the prefect said so, let's go here, I wonder how many soldiers and horses the prefect plans to send to follow me?" Seeing what Han Xuan said, Huang Zhong couldn't refuse, so he nodded and said.

"Uh, the area around Changsha is not very peaceful now. There are often water bandits making trouble. I thought about it and I can only give you [-] soldiers. I hope you can make good use of them. Don't let the people of Changsha down." Huang Zhong said that the soldiers immediately By the side, Han Xuan said with a little embarrassment.

"This?" Hearing that there were only [-] soldiers, Huang Zhong couldn't help being a little angry, but he held back. "In this case, Owen, let's go this way."

Huang Zhong took five hundred soldiers and horses out of the city less than twenty miles away, when he saw a group of men and horses appearing in front of him, the first one was very mighty.

"The ones in front are the officers from Changsha? Do you want to go to Jiangxia to defend against the enemy?" As soon as the brave man saw Huang Zhong and the others, he stepped forward with his horse and sword and shouted loudly.

"That's right, a certain family of Huang Zhong is under the command of the prefect of Changsha, who are you, dare to stop our army?" Seeing how tough the generals are, Huang Zhong stepped forward and said.

"It turns out that my lord is Huang Zhong. I have heard about the general's name for a long time. I would like to go to Jiangxia with the general to defend against the enemy. Please take him in." After receiving Huang Zhong's answer, the man bowed and saluted. It's Wei Yan.

"Wei Yan? Since you are willing to go to Jiangxia to defend against the enemy with me, let's go together." After observing Wei Yan and the more than 100 people behind him, Huang Zhong nodded and said.

"Hey, I heard that the imperial court didn't send a general this time, and the soldiers and horses of each county can play freely, is it true?" Seeing that Huang Zhong was willing to go with people like himself, Wei Yan stepped forward and immediately made friends with Huang Zhong.

"So what? Don't you think it's a good thing? The three armies don't have a leader, and they fight each other. This battle is already doomed." Seeing Wei Yan seemed very happy, Huang Zhong couldn't help but touch him. cold water.

"Hey, what the general said is good, but this is also an opportunity for people like us. If you win the chief general, how can you and I have a chance to perform? You, Huang Zhong, can't help but make a move at your age?" See Huang Zhong said this, but Wei Yan said with a smile.It turns out that Wei Yan is a powerful man in this area.Because of restlessness, I had long thought of being able to show my strengths in the army, but both Jingzhou and Jiangdong's army are controlled by other powerful forces, and Wei Yan can't be reused at all. This time I heard that the soldiers from various counties who attacked Jiangxia Ma didn't have a leader, so he felt that his chance had come. He met Huang Zhong on the way and happened to go with him.

"Hmph, you should think about how to keep your nickname first." Seeing Wei Yan like this, Huang Zhong couldn't help but said again,

At this moment, a scout ran over in a hurry, and when he saw Huang Zhong, he bowed his head and bowed: "General Qi, ahead, there is a large group of soldiers and horses ahead."
