The Three Kingdoms: General Yu She, reincarnated a hundred times.

……

Meanwhile, Dong Zhuo mobilized 200,000 troops to defend against the feudal lords, and military reports kept pouring in like snowflakes.

"We've been robbed!"

They robbed me again!

"Was this one stolen too?"

"I'm so angry!"

Looking at the military reports in his hands, Dong Zhuo smashed them on the ground in a fit of rage.

"Are these allied forces of feudal lords just a bunch of long-time bandits? They just loot and run away. If they're so capable, why don't they fight my 200,000-strong army head-on? What kind of skill is it to steal chickens and dogs all day long?"

Rat! A bunch of rats!

You are unworthy to call yourselves feudal lords!

The constant harassment from small groups of troops from the allied forces of the various lords has resulted in the Xiliang army's supply lines being interrupted.

Basically, they would call for backup after being attacked, but before the backup arrived, the enemy would have already fled.

Take what you can take, burn what you can't. It's not very harmful, but extremely insulting.

Moreover, it severely affected the supply of materials to the Xiliang army, causing Dong Zhuo to not only march slowly, but also to have to allocate a large number of troops to defend the supply route and increase the escort force.

Although they occasionally managed to catch these allied harassing troops in ambush, each attack only involved two or three hundred men. Killing them all was a drop in the ocean and could hardly quell Dong Zhuo's hatred.

"So these rats, with just a few hundred men, managed to hold back my 200,000-strong army."

"Where is Fengxian? My son Fengxian, where is he! Go and kill them all! Kill them all!!!"

"Prime Minister, please calm your anger!"

Li Ru hurriedly stepped forward to advise, "This matter is by no means simple; please think it over carefully."

Under what circumstances could these small detachments sent by the allied forces of the feudal lords have been able to launch such precise attacks on our supply lines every time?

"Hmm~?"

Seeing Dong Zhuo frowning in thought, his emotions calming down slightly, Li Ru quickly said to him:

"Only they knew our army's supply routes perfectly well, when they set off, when they passed by, and when they arrived."

How many personnel are there to escort the supply train? How long will it take for the patrol and support troops along the route to arrive?

Only with a thorough understanding of this information can one strike with unparalleled precision, hitting the mark every time, and then immediately fleeing into the distance.

Without this accurate intelligence, even if the Allied forces wanted to harass us, without knowing our military strength, even if they could find our supply routes, they couldn't possibly succeed each time by sending only a few hundred men.

"Wenyou, what do you mean?"

As Dong Zhuo pondered this, he also found it reasonable, and muttered, "There are enemy spies within our army secretly passing messages to the feudal lords."

"Indeed!"

The only possibility is that intelligence was leaked by spies. Otherwise, even if they were under attack, the generals were all seasoned veterans. How could they have been completely unprepared for such supply raids, allowing the allied forces to succeed time and again?

"good!"

Dong Zhuo's eyes were full of fierce light, but he suppressed his anger. "I thought it was because the people below were incompetent, but I never thought that someone was betraying us."

Wenyou, come here, tell me, who do you suspect?

"No conclusion has been reached yet."

A hint of confusion flashed in Li Ru's eyes. "Speaking of which, this is rather strange."

This spy was able to obtain such detailed and accurate intelligence, and was also secretly communicating with the allied forces of the feudal lords.

Why did the Allied forces only harass our army's supply lines while the main force remained stationary in Suanzao, without taking any action?

Could it be that this spy only had access to supplies and therefore only leaked information related to that area?

Otherwise, if they had access to other intelligence, wouldn't this spy have passed it on to the allied forces of the feudal lords?

If the allied forces had more intelligence, why did they remain inactive?

"Don't think so much, Wenyou. You're the only one I can trust now."

Dong Zhuo patted Li Ru on the shoulder earnestly and then commanded him:

"This matter is entrusted to you for investigation. Better to kill a thousand innocent people than let one guilty person go free. You must find this traitor!"

Furthermore, since the original supply information has been leaked, you need to go back and draft a new supply transport plan.

"Here you go!"

Li Ru respectfully accepted the order and left. In an instant, the Dong camp was filled with panic because of the investigation into spies. People were killed in droves, and everyone was in danger.

After adopting Li Ru's revised supply plan, the Allied forces' small-scale attacks repeatedly failed and fell into ambush, losing their intelligence advantage.

The surprise attack was thus halted, and they dared not attack again.

Dong Zhuo was overjoyed. He secretly believed that this traitorous informant must be among the suspects who had been killed earlier. Since he was already dead, the warlords would no longer be able to keep track of their latest plans.

Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that this person will continue to lie in the shadows. However, with this deterrent, at least for the time being, this person will not be exposed and will not dare to secretly communicate with the feudal lords or pass on intelligence.

Dong Zhuo was relieved. With the threat of supply train attacks gone, his army was able to resume its marching speed and soon arrived at Hulao Pass.

Hulao Pass, Hulao Pass again!

At Hulao Pass, the two armies faced each other. Lü Bu, holding a halberd, rode his horse forward to challenge the enemy.

"With Lü Bu of Jiuyuan here, who dares to fight me?"

Yuan Shao then asked his generals, "Who dares to go into battle?"

The familiar scene played out once again, and Yuan Shu looked at Yu She again, clearly anticipating the scene Yu She had described to him: killing Lü Bu in one battle, becoming famous throughout the world, returning with a great victory, and having him, Yuan Shu, become the leader of the warlord alliance.

However, Yu She only gestured to him with his eyes to "be patient." Although Yuan Shu had doubts, he thought that this might be another of Yu She's plans, so he decided to wait and see for the time being.

As a result, Fang Yue, a famous general from Hanoi, Pan Feng, an unparalleled general, and Mu Shun, a famous general from Shangdang, were successively killed by Lü Bu.

Until Wu Anguo was wounded and fled, the morale of the Xiliang army soared, and the city and its surroundings erupted in cheers.

"General, you are mighty and invincible."

Among the allied forces, there was no one who did not fear Lü Bu's divine might!

Seeing the fear and trembling of the feudal lords, and knowing that his own lord's patience had reached its limit, Yu She stepped forward before Gongsun Zan could engage in battle, bowed to the feudal lords, and said:

"There was a man with a leopard's head and bulging eyes, whose voice was like thunder. He regarded thousands of troops as mere weeds and could take the head of an enemy general from among a million soldiers as easily as taking something out of a bag."

"Now Lü Bu is rampant, like a demon or god. If it weren't for him, who could possibly defeat him?"

Having learned from his previous experience of recommending Guan Yu, and seeing Lü Bu's unparalleled bravery and ability to effortlessly slay several generals, the feudal lords were inspired to join the fight.

Seeing that Yu She was going to recommend talented people again, they felt as if they had grasped a lifeline, so how could they refuse?

Yuan Shao urged him urgently, "The situation is critical. If General Yu has someone who can kill Lü Bu, please tell me quickly, and I will order him to fight immediately."

"It is none other than Magistrate Liu's third younger brother, the foot archer Zhang Fei, Zhang Yide!"

Yuan Shao: "..."

Last time you recommended a mounted archer, this time you recommend a foot archer?

To be honest, if the archer hadn't actually killed Hua Xiong last time, he would have really thought that Yu She was sent by Yuan Shu to make fun of him.
