Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu
Chapter 357: Yuan Shu's Challenge
"There is no need to worry Ziyuan, there will be someone responsible for this matter." Lu Bu said.
Although Chen Lan was confused, she still clasped her fists and said yes.
Long before Lu Bu led the cavalry to set off, one hundred and fifty Flying Eagle soldiers had already scattered on the battlefield to clear obstacles along the way, including Yuan Shu's sentries lurking outside the city. This is why Lu Bu felt confident leading the army there. One hundred and fifty
One hundred flying eagle soldiers play an extremely limited role in the battle of thousands of people, but they are formidable on the battlefield. The flying eagle can bring extremely useful information to the army. This
This was also Lu Bu's confidence in cutting off Yuan Shu's food supply.
Chen Lan keenly discovered that from time to time there were mysterious men in black reporting something to Lu Bu in a low voice, and the cavalry kept changing their direction.
Compared to Chen Lan, Wei Yan paid more attention to the combat effectiveness of the army and personal force. Of course, Wei Yan was also extremely outstanding in terms of strategy. He needed to stand out in this operation, make contributions, and launch surprise attacks. This was also Wei Yan's favorite
Yes, war must be won at the minimum cost. As for the means, it becomes less important after the victory. Wei Yan also admires Lu Bu's ability to lead his troops to cut off the food route of Yuan Shu's army.
"Ziyuan was in Yuan Shu's army and is very familiar with the front. In your opinion, where does Yuan Shu's army need to pass if it wants to transport food and grass?" Lu Bu asked in a low voice.
Chen Lan frowned. After thinking for a long time, he slowly said: "My lord, the matter of transporting grain is an absolute secret in the army. There is no way to know the status of my subordinates at that time. However, Yuan Shu's army numbered tens of thousands.
The daily consumption of grain and grass is also extremely astonishing. It is extremely difficult for the teams transporting grain to hide their traces. If you carefully investigate, you will definitely find the traces."
"Okay, I will give you a hundred cavalry, responsible for inquiring about the food and fodder of Yuan Shu's army, and Wei Yan will go with him," Lu Bu said.
The two of them clasped their fists in greeting and looked at each other. They both saw a strong fighting spirit in each other's eyes. It was impossible for Wei Yan not to take it to heart that Chen Lan almost led the cavalry to defeat him, but now the two of them
Being in the Bingzhou Army, it is natural not to mention the unpleasantness of the past. Now that there is competition, naturally you want to let the other party see your capabilities. Of course, the premise of all this is to be able to discover the enemy's food routes.
This was also Lu Bu's intention. The generals of the Bingzhou Army should not give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of them because of internal discord. The battlefield is the easiest place for generals to get along. He believed that Wei Yan and Chen Lan could eliminate the barriers between each other through cooperation.
After Lu Bu led his army to leave, Liu Biao strictly ordered the princes not to leak the news of merging the state army. In order not to attract Yuan Shu's attention, Liu Biao still ordered his soldiers to attack Anfeng, but the intensity of the attack was much worse than before. This also made
Yuan Shu breathed a sigh of relief. When his troops arrived at the city, people in the city were inevitably panicked. The defenders in the city had also paid a price of nearly 3,000 people in the past few days. Compared with the soldiers of the coalition of princes, most of the soldiers in Huainan had never experienced war.
The new recruits, facing the swarming enemy troops, sometimes become so nervous that they even forget to release arrows.
Yuan Shu asked his soldiers to take turns guarding the city. He had no intention of training his soldiers in the war. He wanted to use the blood of the coalition soldiers to make his own soldiers more elite, and then deliver a fatal blow to the coalition forces.
The coalition forces slowed down their attack on the city, and the defenders on the city felt much more relaxed, and were able to make various defensive moves according to the general's orders with ease.
At this time, Yuan Shu received a letter of war from the allied forces of the princes.
Faced with the declaration of war, the civil servants and generals in the middle discussed it a lot.
Yuan Huan stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the rebel army must be out of food and grass. If you want to fight quickly, you only need to hold on to the city. The rebels will naturally retreat when they run out of food. However, they have to make Yu Lou and the defenders of Liu'an always vigilant.
, to prevent the rebels from bypassing Anfeng and attacking other cities, then the two rebel armies will be unable to do anything."
Situ Yanxiang said: "Your Majesty, the rebel coalition has a large number of people and consumes a lot of food and grass. The same is true for our army. Now when the rebels attack the city, it is no longer as fierce as before. Seeing that the Anfeng city is strong, the morale of the army will definitely fluctuate. If
The Holy Lord will lead his troops to fight and defeat the rebels with an upright army. Then the matter will be settled, so why worry about the princes not wanting to go to the Dazhong family."
Yuan Shu nodded slightly, "What Yan Situ said makes sense. The rebel army is undisciplined. There are 60,000 Zhong family troops inside and outside the city. The soldiers must use their lives to defeat the rebel coalition."
"Your Majesty, although the Bingzhou Army, Yanzhou Army, Xuzhou Army, and Jiangdong Army among the rebel coalition are small in number, they are powerful and cannot be ignored. I hope Your Majesty will think twice." Yuan Huan said anxiously.
"Your Majesty, please think twice!" The civil servants headed by Yuan Huan advised one after another.
"The rebel coalition is nothing to worry about. As long as the Holy One is willing to take out that thing, there is no need to worry about defeating the rebel coalition!" Seeing the hesitation on Yuan Shu's face, Zhang Xun stepped forward and said.
"What the general said is true. Although the rebel coalition is powerful, our army is not weak. Hua Xiong led three thousand cavalry to kill the rebels that day, throwing off their helmets and armor, which greatly enhanced the prestige of our army." Yan Xiang agreed.
.
"Okay, as Situ and the general said, we will have a duel with the rebels outside the city in five days." Yuan Shu thought of what he had been hiding, and he was full of confidence. There are flying cavalry in Bingzhou, and there are soldiers who have died first in Jizhou. How can he, Yuan Shu?
He had no foundation, but it was just not time to show it yet. What he wanted was to be able to defeat Liu Biao and others in one fell swoop.
Others could not understand the words of Yuan Shu, Zhang Xun and others, and they were also talking about it. The coalition of princes had at least 80,000 fighting men. Although there were nearly 60,000 soldiers and horses inside and outside the city, they could really be put into the battlefield.
There are only 40,000 at most. This is a completely unequal battle.
Yuan Shu responded to the challenge, which was unexpected by Liu Biao and others. Yuan Shu had 100,000 men, but the army was scattered within three cities. There were only 60,000 soldiers and horses at most inside and outside the city. Although the coalition forces suffered heavy losses during the siege,
, but there are more than 80,000 people, which occupies a numerical advantage. There are many new recruits in the Jingzhou army, and the same is true for the army under Yuan Shu. What's more, with the help of the princes, the strength of the coalition forces appears to be stronger.
Cao Cao frowned when he heard the news. If he faced such a situation, unless he had enough confidence to decide in a battle, he would definitely not fight the enemy so easily, occupy the advantage of the city, and fight with both sides.
There is a big difference in starting a field battle.
"My lord, I'm afraid it was Yuan Shu who relied on him, so he dared to join forces in a decisive battle." Xi Ce said in a low voice.
"Reliance?" Cao Cao asked doubtfully, "Could it be the cavalry under Hua Xiong's command?
