The Conqueror Isn’t Alone

In this Northern Expedition against the Xiongnu, although Da Chu did not reach the point of "sending out all the troops in the world", it was not far away: with Zhang Han and Zhong Lihuan as commanders, they mobilized the entire 300,000-strong Northern Army, crossed the Yinshan Mountains with great fanfare, and launched a frontal attack King Youxian; with Xiang Yu and Lu Bu as commanders, he selected 100,000 elite cavalry from the Xianyang Forbidden Army, focusing on flexibility and maneuverability; with Han Xin and Long Qie as commanders, he led the Guanzhong Army with 300,000 troops, and marched northward through Yanmen and Shanggu Pass respectively. , attacked the forces of King Zuoxian; finally, Zhong Lihuan led the remaining 200,000 troops to guard the border fortress. On the one hand, he took care of the transportation of grain and grass to the rear, the defense of the base, and was always ready to respond to the expedition.

The First Emperor mobilized his troops and generals many times to conquer the Huns in the north, leaving behind a large amount of precious map information.

Five days later, Xiang Yu and Lu Bu's army arrived at Jiuyuan County.

However, when formulating the specific marching route and combat policy, Lu Bu only took a cursory glance and quickly arranged them on the sand table at a dizzying speed.

Why does he need to see that thing!

After Lu Bu glanced at it, he immediately scorned the crude map.

If there is anyone in this world who can find someone better than him, who has gone up and down the mountains and downhills, forded streams and rivers in his hometown in Bingzhou, galloped for more than ten years, and intercepted countless Huns' attacks with his beautiful riding and shooting skills. He is more familiar with the mountains, rivers, landforms and the enemy's habits, so...he has the same surname as this fool!

Having made such a poisonous oath, Lu Bu devoted 100% of his energy to this battle.

When he arrived at the territory he was most familiar with and the job he was best at, he took the initiative to use his brain for the first time.

While playing with the sand table, he explained it with ease.

At this moment, Maodun Shanyu is just an ambitious young chicken that can grow some feathers.

They had just conquered Donghu, Yuezhi, Liusha and other places. Just to suppress the rebellion and accept surrendered prisoners, they were already exhausted.

If Moton is given another three to five years of development, it will be fully fledged and become a very difficult opponent.

But compared to Mao Dun, who has just emerged, Xiang Yu is in his prime.

Under his personal leadership, the army of more than 600,000 Chu troops has been invincible and invincible for several years. Their morale is strong. With the help of Lu Fengxian and his cheap brother, how can they not be captured easily?

Regarding this battle, Lu Bu's plan was to "set off in late summer and early autumn, so as to ensure that he can come back in time for the winter festival", so he must fight quickly.

After all, most of the officers and soldiers of the Chu army were from Jiangdong. They were used to warm spring days, but they couldn't stand the cold wind and icy debris in the north.

No matter how brave and skilled a soldier is, once he is so cold that he can no longer hold his weapon firmly, how can he use his fighting power?

At the end of summer and the beginning of autumn, it is a perfect time to send troops without missing out on farming and without worrying about food and grass.

Lu Bu knew that riding and shooting was the specialty of the Huns, but precisely because the Huns soldiers were very proud and confident about this, they were often the least defensive.

Therefore, when formulating a strategy, it is often a six- to seven-hundred-mile attack, and the goal is nothing more than "surprise".

The more Lu Bu planned, the more excited he became.

He spoke a lot excitedly, and suddenly realized that the only listener hadn't said a word for a long time. He subconsciously licked his dry lips, and then raised his eyes warily.

But Emperor Han was not what he thought he was. Because he was bored, he took a nap on his own.

On the contrary, her eyes were bright and she was staring at him with great concentration, her eyebrows were deeply gathered, and she didn't know what she was thinking about.

That's pretty much it!

Seeing that this idiot was listening very seriously, Lu Bu nodded with satisfaction before continuing.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Chu had a solemn look and deep eyes, but only 50% of his thoughts were focused on the content of his words.

As for the other 50%...

Xiang Yu's eyes moved slightly, thoughtfully.

It's been a long time since I've seen Fengxian look so confident, energetic and cute... This time he conquered the Huns in the north and quelled the border troubles, he really achieved two birds with one stone.

His eyes flickered slightly and then fell on the empty iron bottle.

When Lu Bu was talking about it, he didn't even care about his dry mouth. Seeing that this fool was so considerate and understanding, he couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction.

This can be considered as knowing some good and bad things, and it is not in vain for me to plan for this fool!

There were no outsiders in the tent, so Lu Bu simply didn't even bother to thank him. He just raised the bottle, raised his head, and drank it all with a few clicks.

He drank the soup in this bold drinking posture, and some of it inevitably spilled from the corners of his lips and rolled down along the neat lines of his jaw.

Xiang Yu followed the crystal clear water droplet playfully across his beloved general's slender neck for an instant, watching helplessly as it dragged out a trail of wet water and finally fell into the deep sunken clavicle fossa. inside.

Lu Bu thought that this fool was concentrating on important matters of military discipline, and he felt happy, but he didn't know that those double eyes were looking at him.

What made him even more satisfied was that Xiang Hanzi objected even half a word to his painstakingly proposed strategy of advancing north first, then attacking west, and directly seizing the territory of the two newly established Loufan and Aries kings in Maodun. No, all will be accepted immediately.

After the business talk was over, the troops would be sent out early the next morning. Lu Bu was thinking that there would still be an hour or two before the light of day. Only then did he realize that he was in his hometown of Jiuyuan, which he had not seen for a long time.

However, he put all his thoughts on how to attack the Huns and how to convince the fool to follow his tactics to defeat the Huns, completely forgetting this point.

But just like Xipicheng, this Jiuyuan, whether it is a villager or a region, is definitely not the same Jiuyuan that he knows even every plant and tree.

What makes Lu Bu feel incredible is that either for the first time he has the priority to annihilate the Huns' traitor army, which was impossible in his previous life, or that this time he does not come here alone, but has these 100,000 soldiers accompanying him, or It's because there is a reckless Xiang man around who dares to covet his handsome and tender appearance...

At this time, in his heart, there was a firmness and clarity, a clear goal, and not even the slightest hesitation or confusion.

Because I was full of energy, I didn't have the time to wander around and see this world where things are right and people are different.

The love general who had just been full of energy and sparkling suddenly fell silent, his tiger eyes dimmed slightly, Xiang Yu, who had been staring at him, immediately frowned and asked: "Fengxian?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Bu suddenly raised his eyes and looked straight!

But this fool will not dodge or dodge, and will always look back.

The two of them stared at each other in silence. Lu Bu saw that his eyes, which were brightly illuminated by the flickering candlelight, lacked any of the usual stern and menacing power.

Overflowing with tenderness and caring that is clear to everyone.

Right.

Lu Bu thought with an indifferent look on his face, this silly emperor with good looks, great strength, and a good temper is indeed my favorite.

I, Xinyue, have reached the point where even rough talkers can chew it with relish... Could it be that this is not the attitude?

Lu Bu then thought about it and said to himself that that's not necessarily the case.

After all, when he was having sex with Diao Chan, that pretty little girl who was like honey mixed with oil, and only focused on the bed all day long, he was still overbearing and could not say a single thoughtful word.

How could he not be like this idiot who reads crookedly to his buttocks? Those love poems and love words that make people go numb are just as casual as eating rice and drinking soup!

Lu Bu scratched his head irritably.

But he didn't know that the two bright pheasant tails on the golden crown were twitching and trembling, looking extremely happy and unaware of the owner's chaotic mood.

Xiang Yu was confused and puzzled that his beloved general was clearly in high spirits just now, but suddenly he became depressed.

He was thinking about his words, not knowing how to ask or comfort him, when the stern-faced Lu Bu seemed to finally make up his mind, suddenly raised his head, and said fiercely: "Your Majesty, please listen carefully to what I'm going to say next!"

Xiang Yu was slightly startled by being 'tired', and subconsciously retracted the forward bend of his upper body.

He had a solemn face, sat upright, and slowly assumed the posture he would have when listening to an important court meeting.

Seeing his correct attitude, the dark-faced Lu Bu softened his tone slightly.

He was the only one with a struggling look on his face, and he tried to speak again and again, but he swallowed them all.

Finally, under Xiang Yu's inquisitive gaze, Lu Bu cursed several times secretly.

The person being scolded was not the fool, but the hesitant self.

He completely shook his heart, cut off the string of reason with one knife, and cut off the bright and bright way out: "This Jiuyuan County in Bingzhou is Bu's hometown."

For the first time, Xiang Yu opened his eyes slightly and listened with bated breath.

Lu Bu deliberately looked away, not wanting to look at him, and continued stumblingly: "Although these nine-atom brothers, except for Bu, don't have any outstanding figures, they are all brave and brave, fighting one against a hundred, and are not afraid of death." Erlang."

Xiang Yu listened quietly without saying a word.

Lu Bu pursed his lips tightly, looking at this candlelight now and then at that candlelight, but he didn't want to look at Xiang Yu.

He could almost pick up his toes and imagine how happy and proud this idiot would be after hearing his next words!

When he thought of this fool looking so happy and ecstatic, he... he became... so angry!

However, the arrow was on the string and had to be fired.

He keeps dragging his feet, pretending to be deaf and mute, and being coy, how can this be the behavior of a great hero like him!

Lu Bu was silent for a long time, and then took a deep breath.

What he is going to say next means nothing to him who has seen countless large and small battles!

Lu Bu narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Xiang Hanzi with an unpredictable expression, and said with an imposing manner: "Jiuyuan'erlang is straightforward, straightforward, and never chants those sour lyrics... So he just I’ll let you know.”

Xiang Yu, who had never said a word, now seemed to have a light shining in his eyes.

He hoarse his voice, with a hidden thought in his heart: "What do you know?"

Urged by this, Lu Bu instantly showed a vicious expression and glared at him.

But he no longer hesitated to back down, but said loudly: "When I surrendered to you, I took off King Qin's head as a token of surrender."

He stood up and looked down at Xiang Yu who was sitting in a daze, his thin lips pursed tightly, his expression cold, arrogant and majestic, like a bottle of the God of War descending from the sky.

"Now, I will make a covenant and an oath with you again..."

When I first married the most beautiful woman in the world, I just took some ordinary gold beads picked up for free as a betrothal gift.

For this big business, he is already the number one overlord in the world, so he can't just deal with it casually. He has to do it himself and make several hard trips.

Lu Bu's face was full of disdain and displeasure, but he didn't know that the bright light in his eyes betrayed all the joy and expectation in his heart: "Just wait a while, I will personally pick off the head of the Xiongnu Chanyu, and then use The land from the Xiongnu as a betrothal gift is enough to welcome the overlord of Western Chu's wife!"
