Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

It is not an easy task to wipe out the cavalry on the battlefield. The cavalry roars in and roars away. If you deliberately hide, it is extremely difficult to catch the trace. This is why Liu Biao asked Lu Bu to ride out.

Back in the army, General Lu Bu handed over the important matters to Guo Jia, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Liao, and led a thousand flying cavalry, together with Ma Chao, to rush to the battlefield.

The news that Chen Lan successfully plundered the princes' grain and grass made the slightly sleepy Anfeng City lively. However, any general who has experienced war knows the importance of grain and grass to a large army.

After Yuan Shu heard the news, he was overjoyed and directly named Chen Lan the right general. He did not hesitate to praise him in front of everyone, and even praised Zhang Xun.

Zhang Xun couldn't help but smile on his face. So what if Hua Xiong was so skilled in martial arts that he could stand alone? He was the general who could save the Zhong family. Ever since Hua Xiong took refuge, he had been constantly provoking Zhang Xun in the army.

status.

"Order Chen Lan to be careful on the battlefield." Zhang Xun warned.

Cutting off the enemy's food and fodder is the easiest way to gain credit and the easiest way to annihilate the entire army.

"Meng Qi, I wonder if you have a clever plan to destroy the enemy's cavalry?" Lu Bu couldn't hide his admiration for Ma Chao in his eyes.

Ma Chao cupped his fists and said: "Marquis of Jin, the rebel army only has a thousand soldiers, but our army has two thousand cavalry. The Xiliang cavalry below is enough to defeat the rebel army."

Seeing Ma Chao who was full of confidence in his words, Lu Bu smiled slightly and said: "I wonder how Meng Qi found this cavalry? It should be noted that the road from Yangzhou to Jingzhou is long, but the rebel cavalry is unpredictable. Even if there are ten thousand cavalry, the opponent's

Even if you try to hide yourself, it’s hard to find.”

Ma Chao looked stunned, obviously considering the details, and thought for a moment: "Since this bandit army is here for the army's food and fodder, they only need to wait at the places they must pass along the way. If they show up, lead the army there.

.”

"If we wait until then, won't we lose food and grass again? At this time, there is not much food and grass in the army. If the enemy takes advantage of it again, we will have no choice but to return without success." Lu Bu asked with a smile, thinking in his heart.

Worried about the situation of the army, he did not expect Yuan Shu to have such courage and dare to send cavalry to cut off the grain road.

"Please give me some advice from the Marquis of Jin." Ma Chao said with a respectful expression, cupping his fists.

"Let's go to Xiyang first," Lu Bu said.

Although Ma Chao was puzzled, he still led his army to follow Lu Bu. After hearing Lu Bu's words, he also wanted to see how Lu Bu defeated the enemy cavalry on the battlefield.

On the Xiyang battlefield, there are still traces of burning grain and grass. There are even wisps of dust and smoke above some grain trucks, and the unique smell of burning grain and grass permeates the surroundings.

Lu Bu turned over and dismounted, lowered his head and observed carefully.

"What is the Marquis of Jin looking for?" Ma Chao followed up and asked doubtfully. In his mind, Lu Bu should be a fierce general on the battlefield, the kind who would have no power to fight back when an enemy draws his sword at a disagreement, but

Lu Bu's previous questions made him quietly change his view. From Lu Bu's body, he saw not only domineering but also carefulness. Thinking of his father's previous teachings, Ma Chao felt a little ashamed.

As a general, one must not only have the courage to rush on the battlefield and the invincible momentum, but also be extraordinarily careful. Any slight situation on the battlefield may change the situation of the entire war. The young and successful Ma Chao

, what he likes most is to use martial arts to conquer his opponents.

"Chen Lan has thousands of cavalry under his command. It is impossible for these cavalry to cover up all their traces. There has just been a battle here, and the horse hoof prints will not be eliminated. You only need to observe the horse hoof marks to roughly judge the movements of Chen Lan and others.

.”

"It's just that there are many horse hoofprints on the battlefield, not only those of Chen Lan and others, but also the cavalry of the Jingzhou Army. How can we determine where these people are going?"

"If Meng Qi were responsible for cutting off the enemy's food route on the battlefield, what would he do after he succeeded in attacking?" Lu Bu asked with a smile.

"Of course we will burn all the grain trucks and cut off the enemy's food supply." After Ma Chao finished speaking without hesitation, he suddenly understood.

After walking around the battlefield, Lu Bu ordered the army to choose a flat place to station. Ma Chao was even more confused about this: "Marquis of Jin, since you can find Chen Lan and other traitors through the hoofprints of the war horses, why not immediately

Heading?"

"Meng Qi, be patient. From the location where Chen Lan burned the army's food and grass, we can see that Chen Lan is a careful general. There is a valley not far ahead. It would be more effective to ambush here, but

Chen Lan chose this place." Lu Bu pointed to the mountain peak in the distance.

"Why did you choose this place?" Ma Chao felt that he had learned a lot together with Lu Bu.

"If Meng Qi is a general and sees a valley ahead, what will he do?"

Ma Chao thought for a moment and said: "I will order the army to investigate the situation in the valley in detail to see if there is an invincible army."

"Everything Meng Qi could think of, Chen Lan and Wang Wei must have also thought of it, but Chen Lan arranged the ambush location here in order to let the Jingzhou army relax their vigilance after passing through the valley, which caused the army's food and grass to be burned

." Lu Bu sighed, if Chen Lan really has such thoughts, it will be a bit difficult to defeat Chen Lan on the battlefield this time.

But there are Yuan Shu's cavalry wandering on the battlefield, and the pressure of transporting grain and grass is huge. The transportation of grain and grass originally consumes a lot of money. When transporting grain and grass, not only the livestock need grain and grass, but the people and soldiers transported also need to eat. This is also the reason why it is difficult to transport grain and grass in war.

The reason is that there are more people transporting food and grass. Before they arrive at the army, the food and grass transported are almost eaten. There are few people. If the enemy intercepts and kills on the battlefield, the food and grass will be difficult to protect. It can be said that if you want to do the job of food and grass well,

is very difficult.

War is fought not only by elite soldiers, but to a greater extent by logistical support. The timely delivery of food, grass and baggage is of great significance to a war. This is why after the great ancestor Liu Bang took over the world, Xiao He was the first to award him a reward.

After listening to Lu Bu's words, Ma Chao looked thoughtful. If another person had spoken these words to him, Ma Chao would have dismissed them, but the person in front of him was the world-famous Marquis of Jin. The weight of his words was worthy of him.

to think.

"Young Master, the Marquis of Jin is really as careful as his hair." Pang De said in a low voice.

Ma Chao nodded slightly, "The Marquis of Jin was able to sweep across the Xianbei cavalry and defeat the Jizhou army in Youzhou. There must be something extraordinary about it. I also underestimated the Marquis of Jin before."

Pang De was very happy when he heard this. He could get the unruly Ma Chao to say these words, and the attack on Yuan Shu would not be in vain.

The next day, Lu Bu figured out the direction and headed west.

Ma Chao rode forward and asked again, "Marquis of Jin, why are you heading west? Chen Lan and others may be in the east or north."
