Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 567: Xi Ce is dead

"Zhicai, I listen to your words, you must hold on." Cao Cao took Xi Ce's hand and his tone was a little urgent.

Xi Ce shed tears and murmured: "My lord, please stop worrying about your subordinates. Yanzhou is the most important. We will prepare our troops for war in the coming days. Why worry about not being able to defeat Xuzhou."

"Where is Xu Chu?" Cao Cao suddenly stood up and shouted.

"My humble duty is here." Xu Chu hurriedly walked into the tent and clasped his fists.

Cao Cao said: "You lead a hundred tiger and leopard cavalry to Bingzhou. You must invite the miracle doctor Hua Tuo."

"Here." Xu Chu glanced at Xi Ce who was lying on the bed. Xi Ce had a high prestige among Cao Jun. It was not only Cao Cao's trust, but more importantly, Xi Ce used his own strength to impress Cao Jun's soldiers.

.

"My lord, now... although Yanzhou is stable, the Holy Emperor is hostile to Yanzhou. If the lord does that, he must be careful and not make any omissions. Hua, Hua Xiong is a person who does not dare to be inferior to others. It should be broken

In other words, if so, if the lord cannot conquer Xuzhou, he should stop his troops as soon as possible and stabilize Yanzhou first. Liu Bei has only been in charge of Xuzhou for a year. If the noble families in the city are loyal to the lord, it will not be difficult to defeat Xuzhou. If he attacks Xuzhou again in the future,

, it’s better to win over each other secretly and win over each other." Xi Ce said intermittently.

"Zhicai, don't talk anymore. We will discuss it with you after Zhicai recovers." Cao Cao said hurriedly when he saw Xi Ce's face getting paler.

"The Marquis of Jin has a strong army and cannot be defeated in a short period of time. The priority is to unite. After the lord defeats Hua Xiong and Liu Bei, and then seizes the land of Qingzhou, great things can be accomplished." Xi Ce suppressed the tightness in his chest and said,

Support your body with your arms.

After explaining, Xi Ce spit out a mouthful of blood and fell weakly on the bed. He seemed to have put down his last thoughts and slowly closed his eyes with a faint smile on his face.

After hearing the news, the doctor stepped forward to feel his pulse and whispered: "The military advisor has gone."

"Incompetent, they are all incompetent people. They usually claim to be rare good doctors in the world, but now they are unable to cure Zhicai. Someone comes and pulls this person out and beheads him in public." Cao Cao said angrily.

The doctor kept begging for mercy, but the soldiers brutally pulled him out of the tent and beheaded him.

"Call all the doctors here. If Zhicai cannot be cured, he will be buried with Zhicai." Cao Cao said coldly.

In the past three days, Cao Jun's doctors have been on tenterhooks. The doctors who went to the big tent to treat Xi Ce were beaten, and in severe cases, they were taken out and beheaded. After receiving Cao Cao's order, they looked at each other with pale faces.

When Cheng Yu heard about this, he hurried to the big tent where the play was held. He was filled with sorrow in his heart: "My lord, the military advisor has gone, please forgive me."

After a long silence, Cao Cao said: "I will bury Zhicai with the ceremony of a state pastor, and the army will pay homage for a day."

"Here." Cheng Yu said with cupped hands. Although it was inappropriate to bury Xi Ce with the ceremony of a state pastor, he also knew the status of Xi Ce in Cao Cao's heart.

After saying this, Cao Cao held the hand of Xi Ce and cried loudly. The generals and counselors who came after hearing the news all shed tears when they saw this.

Liu Bei in the city learned that Cao Jun's mourning was shocking. He didn't know why. When it was found out that Xi Ce was dead, he was overjoyed. "Now that Cao Cao has lost Xi Ce, it is Xuzhou's good fortune."

Chen Deng remained silent. Xi Ce's death would definitely stop Cao Cao from continuing to attack Xuzhou. After all, there were more than 20,000 troops in Xuzhou City at this time, and Hua Xiong was attacking Yuzhou. As expected,

Cao Cao's army will definitely withdraw, which will delay the Chen family's surrender to Cao Cao.

One day after the memorial ceremony for the three armies, Cao Cao ordered the army to launch a violent attack on Xuzhou. The thunder chariots continued day and night. The defenders on the city were miserable. With the cover of the thunder chariots, Cao Cao's wells were able to approach the city and attack.

The city soldiers even attacked the city several times.

Three days later, Cao Cao ordered his army to return to Yanzhou and prepare to deal with Hua Xiong.

Lu Bu, who had been paying close attention to the battle in Xuzhou, was slightly stunned when he learned that Xi Ce was dead and Cao's army retreated.

It will be difficult for Cao Cao's army to conquer Xuzhou. After all, Yanzhou has just experienced a severe drought and locust plague, and Liu Bei also has tens of thousands of troops in his hands. Unless Cao Cao can do what he did last time.

"Fengxiao and Xi Ce are from the same family, so please go to Yanzhou to express condolences on behalf of me." Lu Bu said. Historically, Xi Ce and Guo Jia were both weak in health. Although they won Cao Cao's trust, they helped Cao Cao defeat Yuan Shao.

Liaodong died young. When Hua Tuo comes back, he must inspect Guo Jia carefully.

"Here." Guo Jia cupped his hands and said.

It is winter now, and the feudal princes who have been fighting endlessly will also bring the war to an end. However, after experiencing many battles, the princes will definitely pay more attention to the development of their military strength. For example, although Cao Jun's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry has 500 people, it is

Showing strong combat effectiveness, Yuan Shao's soldiers were the first to die, and they also restrained the cavalry. After the princes recuperated, it can be expected that the world would fall into greater turmoil.

The war also made the princes understand the importance of elite soldiers and cavalry. If a large army does not have strong cavalry, it can only be passively beaten on the battlefield.

The consumption of cavalry is also huge. For example, in Bingzhou, there are now flying cavalry, wolf cavalry and Huang Zhong training cavalry. The number of cavalry has reached 9,000. The cost of these 9,000 cavalry is enough for the princes to form a force of 50,000.

The army is coming.

Bingzhou is currently undergoing major construction projects, and the Prefectural Mufu and Jinhou Mansion are being repaired. The refugees who have poured into Bingzhou have also been dispersed to various counties. The future war will be a competition of population. If there are not many people under the rule, it will be difficult to support more.

More troops are coming.

After the Inspectorate's office was formally established, officials were immediately selected and would soon go to various places.

Internal affairs were left to Chen Tian and Li Su to handle. Every day, Lu Bu would go to the military camp after handling some necessary matters, and his days slowly became leisurely.

Lu Bu attaches great importance to the affairs of the Supervisory Office. This is a measure that has changed the Han Dynasty system. As long as the officials of the Supervisory Office can fulfill their duties, Bingzhou will become stronger. Bingzhou, which has experienced many wars, also needs to recuperate. War will continue.

Even Bingzhou is difficult to support. As long as the refugees who pour into Bingzhou are properly resettled, Bingzhou will be able to make greater progress in a few years. This is why Lu Bu has the confidence to compete with the princes of the world. The most important thing at the moment is to let his subordinates

The people are more at home.

After a night of cold wind, snowflakes were falling, and the whole Jinyang seemed to be covered with a layer of white gauze. The newly repaired Hou Mansion was also covered with thick snow.

At this time, the busy people can also take some time off. Their homes are in better condition and they will buy some coal. The family gathers in front of the stove and has a good time. If they warm up a pot of wine, it will be even more enjoyable.
