Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu
Chapter 176: Letter from Chen Gong
After sending Lu Bu away, Cao Cao immediately summoned his generals and counselors to discuss the attack on Xuzhou. However, before doing so, he would inevitably discuss yesterday's battle with Fei Qi.
Xu Chu looked a little ugly. In any case, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry was still defeated. Although no one blamed him, he felt very uncomfortable in his heart. If he had used a real weapon, he could have killed more flying cavalry, but the same
, Tiger and Leopard Cavalry may have been unable to hold on for a long time. The battle with Flying Cavalry made him understand how cavalry should fight, which is not what he imagined before.
"My lord, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry benefited a lot from the battle with the Flying Cavalry yesterday. I discovered that the Flying Cavalry's horse has one more thing than our cavalry." Xu Chu said his discovery.
Cao Cao's eyes flashed. This was a major discovery. Compared with failure and the loss of a sword, he valued increasing his own strength more. "Oh, what is it?"
"That thing is a bit strange. The soldiers on the flying cavalry put their feet inside and seem to be able to control the horses more freely." Xu Chu said, although he is a military commander, he is more interested in things on the battlefield, facing the enemy's cavalry.
When he was young, his favorite thing to do was to observe the opponent, see the opponent's weapons, armor, and war horses.
"Remember the shape of this thing, let the blacksmith make it, and find out the use as soon as possible." Cao Cao said.
Lu Bu didn't know that Xu Chu had already seen some clues about the stirrups, but he didn't care. The cavalry relied not only on the advantages of equipment, but also on their own quality. Feiqi was definitely at the top of the cavalry.
As long as this advantage is maintained, he is not afraid of the cavalry of other princes. What's more, Bingzhou has war horses. The carefully selected war horses are not comparable to those of the princes in the Central Plains.
Seeing the Bingzhou Army returning, Liu Bei opened the city gate and went out to greet them in person, his face full of anticipation and anxiety.
As soon as he entered the city, Liu Bei couldn't wait to ask: "Fengxian, what do Cao Cao say?"
Lu Bu shook his head slightly, "Cao Jun is determined to fight in the first battle, but Meng De has made it clear that he will not harm the people, and I can only do so much."
Liu Bei looked disappointed. Although this result was expected, when Lu Bu said it, he felt something else in his heart. After all, his family background was very thin. He had experienced such a war when he first took charge of Xuzhou. For the future of Xuzhou
Stability is bad.
"Thank you for your service." Liu Bei thanked him.
"Xuande, there are 30,000 soldiers and horses in the city. There are Tiankai in Xiapi and Zhao Yun is guarding it. I don't think there is any danger. It is no problem to stop Cao Jun with 30,000 troops. Cao Jun has come from afar. When his food and grass are exhausted, he will definitely retreat.
." Lu Bu comforted.
Although Liu Bei nodded in agreement, he was worried in his heart. In fact, he was not very optimistic about Lu Bu's persuasion to retreat Cao Jun. At first, maybe Cao Jun wanted to take revenge, but now that the war has gone on, Cao Jun obviously regards Xuzhou as a
After achieving the goal, occupying Xuzhou can greatly enhance the strength of Cao's army, which Cao Cao can obviously see.
Cao Jun set up a formation to attack the city, which made the atmosphere in the city a little tense. The people passing by on the street were in a hurry. Many people secretly regretted why they had not left Xuzhou before. The news of Cao Jun's massacre of the people had already spread in Xuzhou. Those people were demons.
, there were even rumors among the common people that Cao's army would eat people after conquering the city.
The Mi family suffered a lot of ostracism in the city. Mi Zhu's attitude made Liu Bei wary of him, and he also took away Mi Fang's military power. Although he was still a general in the army, he no longer had military power in his hands, so he chose
Lu Bu, he doesn't care about these anymore. Now, what he wants to do is to calm down the war as soon as possible. He also wants to follow Lu Bu to Jinyang. In Xuzhou, he can no longer see any hope.
When he returned to his residence, Lu Bu couldn't wait to take out the Qingzhi Sword, wanting to see if this legendary sword was so powerful.
Looking at Dian Wei who was holding an ordinary long sword, Lu Bu pulled out the Qingzhi Sword and slashed with all his strength. He saw that the long sword in Dian Wei's hand was cut into two pieces. What surprised him even more was that the gap was extremely smooth, and the Qingzhi Sword's
There was no damage to the sword's edge, but it was as sharp as cutting through iron.
"What a sword." Lu Bu praised, with a happy face.
The Qingzhi Sword seemed to have been snatched away by Zhao Yun, but unexpectedly it fell into his own hands by accident.
At this moment, Lu Bu unexpectedly received a letter. After reading the letter, Lu Bu's agitated mood could not calm down for a long time. The signature on the letter turned out to be Chen Gong. Chen Gong, this was a counselor who was loyal to Lu Bu.
He did not come to the same Lu Bu who came to the Three Kingdoms.
Passing the letter to Guo Jia, Lu Bu kept trying to figure out Chen Gong's intentions. He had never had any interaction with Chen Gong before, so why did the other party suddenly write to him, and his words were quite disrespectful to Cao Cao.
After pondering for a long time, Guo Jia whispered: "My lord, from the perspective of humble duty, there is no lie in this matter. It is said that after Chen Gong persuaded Cao Cao not to attack Xuzhou to no avail, he went to Chenliu Prefect Zhang Miao, and the two of them attacked Cao Cao.
Very dissatisfied with his behavior.”
"It's just that Bingzhou and Yanzhou are far apart. Why did Chen Gong find the lord?" Guo Jia asked.
"Don't worry about him. Send him a reply and ask him if he is willing to go to Bingzhou." Lu Bu said. For the time being, he did not intend to break up with Cao Cao. The two of them got along far apart under their rule. What would happen even if Yanzhou was occupied?
It's hard to accomplish anything by looking at the people around you. You can only make wedding dresses for others.
"Lord, since this person intends to merge with the state, why not let him stay in Yanzhou, he will be of great use in the future," Guo Jia advised.
A flash of light flashed in Lu Bu's eyes. This is indeed a good idea. He quietly buried such a person in Yanzhou. "Okay, you will reply to Chen Gong."
Hua Xiong, who fled Chang'an, felt very angry and finally killed Dong Zhuo. However, it was because of Wang Yun that Li Jue, Guo Si and others came back and occupied Chang'an, leaving him like a lost dog.
After thinking about it, Hua Xiong chose to try his luck with Yuan Shu. After all, he was now an official of the imperial court. Moreover, when the princes attacked Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shu was also a member of the princes. He felt that if he took refuge with Yuan Shu, the chance of success would be greater.
Some.
Yuan Shu was overjoyed when he heard that Hua Xiong had brought troops to surrender. Hua Xiong was Dong Zhuo's most powerful general. He killed two coalition generals outside Sishui Pass. Yuan Shu, who was short of generals, was very polite to Hua Xiong.
He is quite vigilant in terms of military power.
Being able to gain a foothold under Yuan Shu, Hua Xiong is also quite satisfied. After all, he was once an enemy in the past, and being able to accept him is already very courageous. As long as he has achieved merit, he still has to worry about not being reused. What's more, the fourth and third prince of the Yuan family, Yuan Shu
As a legitimate son, there are also many military commanders and counselors who come to agree with him. He is strong and his future looks bright.
