Killing system of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 178

Fan Lihua asked: "Is there anything unusual?"

Liu Muzhi said: "Not yet, no matter who wants to rebel, they will not show their feet at the beginning."

"Then keep an eye on them. If there is any change, do you know what to do?" Fan Lihua asked.

Liu Muzhi immediately replied: "This subordinate naturally knows, Madam, don't worry, no one will run away."

Fan Lihua looked outside the city again, "How much time does Lu Zijing have to come back?"

"It is said that it will take three to five days."

Fan Lihua nodded. Now that foreign enemies have invaded and the city is about to be stormy, she cannot feel at ease without Lu Su.

Zhang Yi's governance in the past two years has indeed caused dissatisfaction among many aristocratic families, and maybe there will be rebellion at this time.Fan Lihua knew that she couldn't deal with these people, so she could only rely on Lu Su.The problems of these people do not necessarily require the use of force, but more of a political problem.Lu Su is more capable in dealing with these matters, and Liu Muzhi is much worse.

It will take a few days for Lu Su to come back, and Fan Lihua can only use Liu Muzhi now.However, Liu Muzhi's prestige is not as good as Lu Su's, so the effect must be much worse.

Politics has too many determining conditions. Some people like to listen to good words, some people like to rely on connections, some people believe in celebrities, and some people follow the strong.Sometimes when one condition reaches its extreme, everything can be settled.

But Liu Muzhi can't reach the ultimate level, so he still has to rely on Lu Su, who has a stronger overall strength.

Lu Su evacuated the people outside the city, leading [-] elite soldiers.When Xiahou Yuan's troops came to the city, Lu Su had not yet completed the evacuation.

In fact, this matter!It was also Lu Su and Fan Lihua who lost the opportunity.They should have evacuated when Xia Houyuan attacked Xiacai, but it was too costly to evacuate the people.

Zhang Yirenyi specially stipulated that all property destroyed during the relocation would be compensated to the common people.That's why Lu Su thought that the relocation would be a huge effort. If Xia Houyuan didn't come, wouldn't the evacuation be in vain?
As a result, as soon as the Huai River froze, Xia Houyuan crossed the river, and Lu Su could only evacuate the people in a hurry.

Xia Houyuan went directly to Shouchun, and he didn't care about looting the people at all.It wasn't until he saw that Shouchun was too guarded that he realized that he might not be able to get a bargain.

He ordered Cao Xiu, "Wen Lie, take someone to collect food!"

Requisitioning grain means asking Cao Xiu to plunder the people, which is just a nice thing to say.Cao Xiu understood immediately and took five thousand soldiers to collect grain.

But he found some villages, only to find them empty.Cao Xiu immediately knew that Zhang Yi's people had moved them away.

Cao Xiu saw that the house was being tidied up in a hurry, and the temperature inside the house, so he knew he hadn't left soon. "Chasing, let's hurry up, we will definitely be able to catch up with them."

Lu Su had just left here for less than half a day. He asked the soldiers to send the common people away first, and he led the people to the rear.When Cao Xiu arrived at the village, he was found out by his scouts.

Lu Su took out the map, glanced at it, and said, "Tell the team in front to pass through the water quickly."

"You go to the dense forest ahead and make more footprints in the snow. You can only go in but not out. You don't need to be too conspicuous. You can sweep it with branches. Then stay in the forest and bring your bow and arrow. If Cao's soldiers explore the forest, you can let them go. Shoot them with arrows. If Cao's soldiers ignore you, shake the trees. If Cao's soldiers retreat, you will lie in wait for an hour and then come back." Lu Su said to his own soldiers.

"No!" A general agreed immediately.

After Lu Su finished the arrangement, he ordered the troops, "Everyone wait here and see who Cao Bing is here this time?"

Lu Su waited for about an hour, and finally saw Cao Bing's shadow.Lu Su sneered, and then ordered: "Retreat slowly! Don't panic, Cao soldiers have come from afar, you are exhausted!"

What Lu Su said was a bit redundant, because the soldiers underwater had no intention of panicking at all.They didn't even put up their shields. They glanced at Cao Bing and retreated.

This is Lu Su's first time leading troops into battle, and he doesn't know these soldiers very well.He retreated in amazement, and when he reached the dense forest, Cao Bing was two hundred steps away from him!
Lu Su couldn't help feeling proud, he was very proud to have such a soldier!Seeing Cao Bing chasing him in the distance, Lu Su gave a new order: "Slow down and retreat slowly!"

Cao Xiu saw Lu Su's retreat slowing down and said happily: "Zhang Yijun can't run anymore, let's try harder!"

After hearing this, Cao Bing quickened his pace again.However, when they arrived near the dense forest, a Cao soldier with sharp eyes saw the hidden information near the dense forest, and immediately shouted: "General, there may be an ambush in the forest!"

When Cao Xiu heard this, he looked over quickly, only to see footprints that hadn't been cleaned up by the edge of the forest.Looking at the forest again, the snow on many branches has fallen, there is an ambush!
"Stop advancing!" Cao Xiu hurriedly stopped the army from advancing. If he was attacked by surprise, he would suffer heavy losses.

When Lu Su saw Cao Xiu stop, he also ordered to stop the army, and then looked over.

When Cao Xiu saw Lu Su stop, he was taken aback. Could it be that the enemy is about to attack?He panicked, and quickly said: "Withdraw the troops! Withdraw the troops!"

Most of Cao's soldiers didn't know why, and when they heard the order to withdraw, they immediately ran away.Cao Jun's lineup suddenly became chaotic, and when he withdrew his troops, he became a rout.

Lu Su was dumbfounded, but how could he let go of this opportunity to beat the dog in the water?Lu Su shouted: "Pursuit!"

After receiving the order, those elite soldiers immediately chased after them.Lu Su also wanted to chase, but found that many soldiers had already surpassed him.

Lu Su was stunned for a moment. He realized that he couldn't outrun these soldiers!He stopped running, stood there and shouted again: "You can only chase for five miles, and then come back -"

"promise!"

The group of soldiers shouted in unison and continued to chase after them.

Lu Su walked to the dense forest and called out the ambushed soldiers.He didn't expect that he would scare Cao Bing away by randomly setting up a plan to mislead the soldiers. What an unexpected surprise!

In fact, Cao Xiu is inexperienced and has a cautious personality, otherwise he wouldn't be like this.Even if Cao Xiu had several years of experience in leading troops, he would not suddenly choose to withdraw his troops.Even if Cao Xiu didn't follow Cao Cao and was a bit more reckless and attacked directly, he wouldn't be defeated like this.

It can only be said that things happened by coincidence.

Fortunately, Cao Bing ran very fast, and Lu Su only allowed him to catch up five miles out of caution.Therefore, there were not many Cao soldiers caught up by Zhang Yijun, only more than 100.Most of them were lost. It took Cao Xiu three days to gather more than 500 soldiers. He stayed for two or three days to repair and pursue Lu Su. Xia Houyuan meets up.
