Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 1228: Yuan Shao's anger

After the news of Yuan Shang's death reached the city, it caused great turmoil. In the eyes of Qingzhou officials, Yuan Shang was very likely to become the successor of Yehou.

You can imagine the anger in Yuan Shao's heart. Although the Yuxi incident made him suspicious of Yuan Shang, deep down in his heart, he still hoped that Yuan Shang could inherit his position. But now Yuan Shang died outside the city.

"Strictly investigate this matter." After a long silence, Yuan Shao uttered four words.

"Here!" Feng Ji looked serious. He knew that Yuan Shao was really angry this time. At the same time, he also had doubts about the murderer secretly.

"My Lord, although there are many Yellow Turban remnants in Qingzhou, no trace of the Yellow Turban remnants has been found near Linzi. Why did these Yellow Turban remnants suddenly attack the Third Young Master when he left the city? The Third Young Master does not have many valuable things on him, and the guards around him are not

"Master, there is no need for these Yellow Turban remnants to take huge risks and attack the Third Young Master," Feng Ji said.

Yuan Shao's eyes tightened, he didn't understand the reason behind this.

"From Yuan Tu's perspective, who did this?" Yuan Shao suddenly asked.

Feng Ji kept silent. Now that Yuan is not here, Yuan Tan is very likely to become the heir of Yehou. If he offends Yuan Tan at this time, the gain outweighs the loss. There is no resurrection after death. If it is because of a dead person, he will become the lord in the future if he offends him again.

People are just stupid.

"Lord, my subordinates will investigate this matter strictly and will not let such a young person go." Feng Ji said with his hands in hand.

Yuan Shao nodded and signaled Feng Ji to step back.

Yuan Shao was the only one left in the room. He stared into the distance. Yuan Shao let out a long sigh. He naturally saw clearly the reminder in Feng Ji's words and Feng Ji's concerns.

After learning that Yuan Shang was dead, he thought deeply about it. The most likely person to take action was Yuan Tan. Besides Yuan Shang, the most suitable successor was Yuan Tan. If Yuan Tan was accused at this time,

It will inevitably lead to more instability under the rule.

After the remnants of the Yellow Turbans outside the city killed Yuan Shang, they fled far away. Even though they were conducting a secret investigation, they did not find much useful evidence.

Yuan Shang died, which made Yuan Tan overjoyed. However, Yuan Tan followed Xin Pi's advice and stayed in the house. Yuan Tan did not tell Xin Pi about this matter. Naturally, the fewer people who knew about such an important matter, the better.

good.

In this tense moment, Yuan Tan will naturally not show up in a ostentatious manner.

After Guo Tu arrived in Yanzhou, he was received by Cao Cao and persuaded Cao Cao to form an alliance with Yuan Shao.

Cao Cao didn't understand Yuan Shao's intentions, but his rule was not stable now, especially Zang Ba of Xuzhou, which gave him a strong sense of uneasiness. The land of Xuzhou was taken from Liu Bei's hands, so naturally he would not allow others to interfere.

"My lord, Zang Ba is now very powerful in Xuzhou. According to detailed reports, Yuan Shao has sent people to contact Zang Ba. If Zang Ba and Yuan Shao unite together, it will be extremely detrimental to the situation in Xuzhou." Cheng Yu said.

"Zhongde, have you ever investigated clearly the relationship between Zang Ba and Lu Bu?" Cao Cao asked. Compared to Lu Bu, Yuan Shao is now a much smaller threat, and after the defeat of Jizhou, Yuan Shao needs time to stabilize Qingzhou.

But if Zang Ba was involved with Lu Bu, the situation would be completely different.

Cheng Yu said: "My subordinates have never discovered it, but the cavalry, thunder chariots, and bed crossbows in Zang Ba's army are extremely suspicious. Although Zang Ba has been in Langxie for many years, it is absolutely impossible to train such a number of cavalry in a short period of time, and the thunder chariots are extremely suspicious."

The timing of Hebed Crossbow's appearance was too sudden."

"Pay close attention to Zang Ba. Lu Bu can rely on the newly formed Chang'an army to defeat Ma Teng. I can also make Zang Ba fail in Xuzhou. Regardless of whether Zang Ba has a relationship with Lu Bu or not, such existence will eventually threaten me. You

We secretly sent people to contact Zang Ba. If Zang Ba is willing to surrender, he will be a high-ranking official with a generous salary. If Zang Ba refuses to surrender, don’t blame me." Cao Cao snorted coldly.

"Here." Cheng Yu cupped his hands and said.

After the defeat last year, Cao Cao returned to Yanzhou. Although he recruited troops aggressively in Yanzhou and Yuzhou, after the defeat, he lost a lot of food and grass. The Huguan war lasted for a long time and consumed a lot of food and grass.

Among the princes, the one who suffered the greatest losses in the Battle of Huguan was Cao Cao. Not only was he defeated at Huguan, but he also suffered a lot at the hands of Huang Zhong. His eldest son, Cao Ang, was shot and killed by Huang Zhong.

However, Cao Cao was an optimistic and open-minded person. Even if he was defeated, he still had enough confidence.

"My lord, now that Lu Bu has defeated Ma Teng, no one in Liangzhou can threaten Chang'an. If we take the next step to capture Yizhou, its strength will definitely increase." Xun You said, Bingzhou's power is indeed beyond everyone's expectations.

It is expected that not only the Bingzhou Army, but also the Youzhou Army showed strong combat effectiveness on the battlefield in Jizhou. Without the Youzhou Army fighting in Jizhou, Yuan Shao would not have withdrawn his troops and returned to Jizhou at the critical moment.

Thinking of the situation outside Huguan, Xun You felt extremely regretful. Otherwise, after Jiguan was broken, if he only had to continue attacking Huguan, Chang'an might not belong to Lu Bu.

Cao Cao said: "Lü Bu is an ambitious man. Although Liu Zhang is incompetent, he will not give up Yizhou. What is the relationship between Lu Bu and the aristocratic family? There are many aristocratic families in Yizhou, so he will definitely not allow Lu Bu to enter Yizhou.

.”

"My lord, from what I see, it is very likely that Lu Bu will attack Qingzhou." Xun You seemed to have figured out something and said suddenly.

"Why did Gongda say this?" Cao Cao asked.

Xun You said: "The situation between Yuan Shao and Lu Bu has reached a point of death. Although the two sides have temporarily stopped fighting, once Lu Bu regains his strength, he will not let Yuan Shao go. Yuan Shao has been entrenched in Jizhou for many years, and he regards Jizhou as his foundation. Jizhou

The family must be extremely dissatisfied under Lu Bu's rule, and secretly hope that Yuan Shao will lead the army to recapture Jizhou. If he wants to completely stabilize Jizhou, Lu Bu will definitely attack Yuan Shao, and there is an inexplicable connection between Xuzhou Zang Ba and Lu Bu, and they will seize Jizhou.

After Qingzhou, Lu Bu only needs to unite with Zang Ba to contain the lord's troops."

Cao Cao nodded slightly and said: "Gongda means to put down Zang Ba as soon as possible?"

"Exactly, if Zang Ba is allowed to continue like this in Xuzhou, it will be extremely difficult to defeat Zang Ba after he has become so powerful. No matter whether Zang Ba is involved with Lu Bu or not, he cannot stay." Xun You said.

Cao Cao said: "I understand."

Following Cao Cao's orders, more and more troops gathered towards Shanyang. After the battle at Huguan, Cao Cao realized the importance of an elite force.

Even at great cost, a heavy cavalry was secretly trained in the army. This was also imitated by the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry. The Wolf Cavalry showed strong combat effectiveness on the battlefield in Jizhou.

, you only need to equip the cavalry and war horses with armor, and after training, they can be sent to the battlefield.
