Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 1809: Capture Jingzhou and attack Yizhou

"Mengde asked Gongda to come here this time for the purpose of forming an alliance. Did I hear that after the alliance was formed, Mengde was planning to attack Jingzhou?" Lu Bu asked.

Xun You said: "Sun Quan from Jiangdong did not obey the imperial orders. The Prime Minister wants to send troops to attack Jingzhou. I hope the King of Jin can support him."

Lu Bu frowned slightly, mainly because Xun You was too direct, which made him feel uncomfortable. It was reasonable for Cao Cao to attack Jingzhou, but after saying it so easily, it always made people feel uncomfortable.

believe.

The art of war is real and illusory, and Cao Cao is obviously playing this trick with Chang'an and Jiangdong. Cao Cao wants other princes not to see his purpose.

"In this case, what will happen after the two sides form an alliance?" Lu Bu asked.

"Of course we will not invade each other." Xun You replied without hesitation.

"What the King of Jin wants is Yizhou, and what the Prime Minister wants is Jingzhou. Both Jingzhou and Yizhou are traitors in the eyes of the court. If the King of Jin decides to attack Yizhou, Xu Du will naturally support it."

"Yes." Xun You said.

Lu Bu nodded slightly. From Xun You's words, he felt the sincerity. If there was the support of Xu Du's court, Lu Bu's actions in Yizhou would become much simpler. The influence of Xu Du's court in the world would be increasing day by day.

Improve, and after gaining Cao Cao's support, the influence of the Chang'an Army can be increased invisibly.

Nowadays, many people still think that Lu Bu is rebellious. If the court supports Lu Bu in this matter, it will gain Lu Bu a lot of reputation.

"In that case, I would like to thank Mengde very much." Lu Bu said with a smile.

Xun You cupped his hands and said, "I have something to say. If you have offended the King of Jin, I hope that the King of Jin will forgive me."

"But it doesn't matter." Lu Bu said calmly.

"Although the relationship between Jiangdong and the King of Jin is close, what the King of Jin needs is Yizhou. After the two parties form an alliance, the Prime Minister does not want to see Chang'an's army threatening Jingzhou. This is a bold statement, and I hope the Marquis of Jin will forgive me.

." After Xun You finished speaking, he saluted directly.

Lu Bu's face turned cold. He was the king of Jin and had much more territory than Cao Cao. However, Cao Cao's envoy said these words. However, Xun You had reminded him before that this kind of thing could not be done.

You can't blame him. As a counselor, Xun You definitely hopes that Cao Cao can get more benefits, and the attitude of the Chang'an army is crucial. Even if Lu Bu attacks Yizhou, there will definitely be a lot of troops left in Chang'an who want to threaten him.

The safety of Nanyang County can still be easily achieved.

"Humph, I am true to my word and will never do anything treacherous." Lu Bu snorted coldly.

"That's just nonsense from a humble position." Xun You said hurriedly, directly after Lu Bu said this sentence. Even if he achieved his goal, with Lu Bu's identity and status, he would basically not regret what he said. Of course, the most important thing is

What is clear is that Lu Bu wanted to form an alliance with Cao Cao.

"However, if Cao Jun came to help Liu Bei when I attacked Yizhou, I would not blame my subordinates for being ruthless." Lu Bu said.

"Don't worry, King Jin. The prime minister is an ally of King Jin, and he will definitely not be like this." Xun You said.

The reason Xun You took the risk just now was because of what he learned last year. Sun Ce died and Jiangdong was in turmoil. However, such a good opportunity came because Lu Bu's army entered Wuguan, which affected Cao Jun's actions. This situation made Cao Jun in Xin

Before taking action, more factors must be taken into consideration, otherwise after the war entered a stalemate, Lu Bu suddenly came to Wuguan for a moment, which would always give people a feeling of being stuck in the throat.

After Xun You left, Lu Bu frowned slightly. Forming an alliance was reasonable, but Cao Cao's envoy directly told Cao Cao's army this year's purpose, making Lu Bu even more confused.

"Wen He, in your opinion, is this true or false of Cao Mengde?" Lu Bu turned his attention to Jia Xu, who was previously responsible for contacting Xun You.

Jia Xu cupped his hands and said: "My lord, in the opinion of my subordinates, Cao Cao's move is real. His intention to confuse my lord with this kind of move is actually a manifestation of his ambition. Cao Cao will not sit back and watch Jingzhou grow stronger, Jiangdong

It is becoming more and more stable. Even if the lord leads a large army to attack Yizhou, he only needs to maintain an alliance with Jiangdong. It is extremely difficult to take advantage of the lord just by relying on Cao's army.

To attack Yizhou, it is impossible to mobilize all the troops, but under Lu Bu's command, there are a full 200,000 troops. These are the standing troops of various cities. Together with the 6,000 cavalry on the grassland, the strength is so powerful.

To attack Yizhou, half of the troops and horses are enough.

The main reason is that if Cao Cao suddenly attacks Chang'an, it will shake the morale of the army. To pacify Yizhou, he will definitely face many difficulties, and he must maintain a high degree of vigilance at all times.

"In this case, when I attack Yizhou, I don't need to pay attention to Cao's army." Lu Bu said.

Jia Xu cupped his hands and said: "My lord, Jiangdong has a close relationship with Chang'an. As long as we continue to maintain this relationship with Jiangdong, if Cao's army attacks Chang'an, how can Jiangdong let go of this golden opportunity? As expected, Jiangdong is probably the most hopeful.

What is more important is that Chang'an's army can defeat Cao's army on the battlefield."

"Jiangdong knows how to scheme." Lu Bu said. He naturally knew a thing or two about Jiangdong's schemes. At this point, among the princes fighting against each other, the only ones left behind were the best among the princes and their ambitions.

There is no doubt that whether it is Liu Bei, Sun Quan, Cao Cao or Lu Bu in Chang'an, they all have their own ambitions. As long as they have sufficient strength, these ambitions will gradually be revealed. For example, Liu Bei used to give people the impression that

He is loyal and now he is the King of Hanzhong. Although it is a reward from the imperial court, anyone with a discerning eye can understand what is going on behind this matter.

Nowadays, the imperial court in Yizhou can be said to exist in name only. Liu Qi does not have enough power in his hands and can only follow Liu Bei's instructions. Although the officials in Yizhou are very respectful to Liu Qi on the surface, they have no respect for Liu Qi secretly.

There is respect at all.

"My lord should make friends with Jiangdong. Jiangdong is the key to my lord's battle this year. As long as Jiangdong can stand on my lord's side, my lord will be invincible." Jia Xu whispered.

"Send the order and let the Jiangdong envoy and Shi Yuan come in." Lu Bu said.

Lu Su has achieved his goal of purchasing war horses in Jiangdong. Although the purchase of weapons has not been completed, the number of war horses is not much worse than that of Cao Jun. Moreover, these things have been transported to Qingzhou and are ready to be transported back to Jiangdong by water and by land.

If we go up, not only will the speed be slow, but we will also have to pass through Cao Jun's territory. If Cao Cao suddenly orders someone to attack, it will be dangerous.
