Rebirth God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 1746: 2 Envoys

At this time, Cao Cao was in a dilemma. If he sent a large number of troops to attack Jingzhou, he was worried that the Chang'an army in Wuguan would be dispatched.

"My lord, the King of Jin has not yet returned from Liangzhou with his troops. Even if the King of Jin has the heart to help Jiangdong, he will not attack Nanyang County easily," Cheng Yu said.

Xun Yu said: "Otherwise, the king of Jin did not act according to the rules. When the army of the princes attacked Huguan, the king of Jin still led the army to attack Jizhou after losing his troops and driving Yuan Shao away from Jizhou. The princes thought it was impossible at the time. , but King Jin did just that.”

Cao Cao nodded solemnly. He was unpredictable about Lu Bu's character, which was often seen as impossible by others, but it became possible in Lu Bu's hands. Now Lu Bu has a strong army, and the north of the Yellow River is even leading the army. The land of Qingzhou was all occupied by Lu Bu, and Zang Ba in Xuzhou had an ambiguous relationship with Lu Bu. Lu Bu's army could always threaten his safety.

"If a large army attacks Jingzhou, it will definitely not be able to break through in a short time. My subordinates suggest that my lord should send more troops to garrison Wancheng to guard against Lv Bu's troops." Xun You cupped his hands.

"Order, let Man Chong come." Cao Cao said.

He didn't want to give up the opportunity to attack Jingzhou so easily. If Jingzhou was occupied, his strength would be greatly improved.

Abandoning the attack on Jingzhou and guarding against Lu Bu's soldiers and horses would naturally prevent Chang'an's army from easily offending them. However, this was a golden opportunity lost.

After receiving Cao Cao's order, Man Chong went to Chang'an that night to try to find out Jia Xu's attitude. It would be good if the two sides could strengthen the alliance at this time.

And Sun Quan also sent Lu Su as an envoy to Chang'an to strengthen the alliance with Lu Bu.

Although Lu Su was young, he had won Sun Quan's trust and was quite strategic. He understood that if he could stabilize his relationship with Lu Bu at this time, Jiangdong could be saved from war. Take Jingzhou in your hands, but stabilize the existing governance.

Jiangdong's envoys and Cao Cao's envoys arrived in Chang'an almost at the same time.

When Lu Su and Man Chong came to Chang'an, they learned that Lu Bu had pacified the Wei Li Kingdom and was leading the troops back. This situation made Man Chong a little uneasy. It would definitely take a long time for Lu Bu to pacify Liangzhou. , the Qiang people in Liangzhou have been in trouble for many years, and the big Han sent a large number of soldiers and horses to attack Liangzhou, but they did not succeed.

Putting the same thing on Lu Bu, it took just a few months to calm down the strong Qiang people in the eyes of the Han people, and even tidy up the Wei Li country that was a threat to Liangzhou, and captured the king of the Wei Li country alive. The exciting news for the Han people made Cao Cao even more worried.

Lu Bu's means and strength are too strong, which is not good news for other princes.

However, Lu Su saw hope in such news. King Jin pacified the Qiang people in Liangzhou. After returning to Chang'an, he would definitely not sit back and watch Cao Cao break through Jingzhou to strengthen his own strength. Compared with Jiangdong, Lu Bu and Cao Cao must be the first to fight , the rule of the two is close, and although they are an alliance now, they have many precautions against each other.

After Jia Xu saw the envoys of Sun Quan and Cao Cao, he spoke good words of comfort to both of them without expressing the slightest expression, but Chang'an's army stationed in Wuguan had already expressed Lu Bu's position to a certain extent.

Cao Cao regarded Lu Bu as a confidant, and Lu Bu also regarded Cao Cao as a real opponent. Lu Bu would not watch Cao Cao attack Jingzhou, and the reason why Cao Cao did not invade Chang'an when Lu Bu attacked Liangzhou was because Chang'an was guarded by a large army. The second is that Liangzhou is barren. Even if Lu Bu spent a huge price to pacify Liangzhou, the gain would not be worth the loss, not to mention that Cao Cao wished that Lu Bu would lose his troops and generals on the battlefield of Liangzhou.

The pacification of the war in Liangzhou reassured Lu Su a lot, and he even felt a lot better. Wuguan had a large army in Chang'an, so Cao Cao didn't dare to send troops into Jingzhou easily.

It is very difficult to break through Jiangxia with Jingzhou's soldiers and horses.

For this kind of favor, Jiangdong naturally has to admit it. Lu Bu sent a large army to Wuguan without pacifying Liangzhou, which is enough to show that Lu Bu attaches great importance to Jiangdong. He made friends with Jiangdong sincerely.

Before Lu Su left, he was also ordered by Sun Quan to strengthen his alliance with Lu Bu.

If Lu Bu can help Jiangdong get through this crisis this time, then the Jiangdong Sun family has gradually grown up with the help of Lu Bu. At the beginning, Sun Jian was rescued by Lu Bu, and Sun Ce was once rescued by Lu Bu's subordinates. Jiangdong was in danger and asked for help again It came to Lu Bu.

This kind of kindness is absolutely heavy.

The next day, Jia Xu secretly sent someone to summon Lu Su.

After coming out of Chang'an Mansion, it was already late at night, but Lu Su's heart was more stable. He even thought about what would happen if Cao Cao attacked Jingzhou at this time. From Jia Xu's tone, he felt When it comes to Lu Bu's covetousness for Nanyang.

Jia Xu will not deceive him on this matter. It is enough for Chang'an's army to attack Nanyang, provided that Cao's army attacks Jingzhou at this time.

After Cao Cao's army was held back by the Jiangdong Army in Jingzhou, as long as Chang'an's army broke through Nanyang and attacked Xudu, it would mean that Cao Cao's years of hard work would come to naught. Cao Cao dared not gamble at this time.

After Chang'an's army failed on the Nanyang battlefield, there was still an army that shocked the world. If Cao's army failed in this battle, it would be a complete defeat. Don't look at Cao Cao's current rule has Yanzhou, Yuzhou, Xuzhou and The importance of Xudu in Nanyang County, Nanjun and Shouchun is just as important as Chang'an is to Lu Bu at this time.

Lu Su is full of confidence, but Man Chong is not in a good mood. He originally thought that there would be turmoil in Jiangdong, and that his side could gain more benefits from this turmoil. Who knew that Lu Bu would actually send troops into Wuguan to deter Nanyang Jun, under such circumstances, Cao Jun dared to act rashly. Who can be sure whether Lu Bu, a lunatic, would come to Cao Jun to attack Jingzhou like that.

The most important thing under Lu Bu's command is the cavalry. If all the cavalry gather together, it will be even more terrifying. When attacking Wancheng, they can use the power of the cavalry to surprise Xudu, which is impossible to defend against.

Man Chong also understands that in Lu Bu's eyes, Cao Cao is the greater threat. Lu Bu's territory is close to Cao Cao, and sooner or later there will be a battle between the two, but Jiangdong is different, it is far away from Chang'an, and it is an important force for Lu Bu to contain Cao Cao. Naturally, I don't want Jiangdong to be wiped out by Cao Cao so quickly.
