Three Kingdoms: I can summon famous generals from all worlds

Chapter 45 Important Decision
A few days later, the eight princes finally arrived, and Cao Cao also camped two miles behind the eight princes' camp.

Not long after, news of Pegasus came from ahead.

"General Cao, the commanders in front of us invite you to discuss matters."

As a result, Cao Cao opened the letter in the messenger's hand, and when he opened it, his eyes instantly became dignified.

"Then Lu Bu... is so powerful?"

Holding the letter in his hand, Cao Cao turned around and walked quickly towards the army.

"Your Highness, there is news ahead!"

Liu Bian had just sat down in the tent, and Mao Zhihua had just made tea when Cao Cao's voice came from outside.

"what news?"

Liu Bian looked up, but saw Cao Cao's serious face.

"Your Highness, I'm afraid we all underestimated Na Lu Bu!"

"Oh?"

Liu Bian raised his eyebrows slightly, then took the battle report from Cao Cao, scanned it roughly, and understood what happened.

It seems that it was Lu Bu's force that shocked the princes from all walks of life.

The number one general of the Three Kingdoms is indeed well-deserved.

Smiling lightly, Liu Bian put down the battle report and said, "Meng De, is that why you came here?"

Seeing Liu Bian's indifferent appearance, Cao Cao was even more surprised. Could it be that His Highness was mentally prepared for this?

"This...Your Highness, Lu Bu is brave, far beyond our expectations. Three thousand cavalrymen charged and killed in the Third Route Army, and they can advance and retreat freely. This kind of force..."

"Such force is not a cause for concern."

Liu Bian waved his hand lightly, took over Cao Cao's words and said:

"Meng De, don't worry, Lu Bu is brave, and the world knows it. If I am not sure of his victory, I will not make a plan to cut off Yuan Shao."

Seeing the confident expression on Liu Bian's face, Cao Cao doubted the letter and said:

"Your Highness said that the person who dealt with Lu Bu was Huang Hansheng, General Huang?"

"There is Han Sheng."

Liu Bian nodded, "But Han Sheng is not the only one. Lu Bu is brave. If you want to be sure, Han Sheng will not be the only one here. Meng De can rest assured."

Liu Bian didn't say anything, so Cao Cao didn't ask any more questions, but continued:
"It's good that Your Highness knows well. Cao Mou is here, and there is one more matter, but the eight princes in front want to gather for a discussion, and send someone to come to me. Cao Mou went to the front and asked His Highness, do you have any orders?"

"Gathering for discussion?"

Liu Bian was drinking tea, but when he heard Cao Cao mentioning this matter, he paused slightly.

If I remember correctly in the previous life, the princes of the Eight Routes gathered to discuss matters, and before they had decided on a plan, Lu Bu would come to call for a fight. At that time, the princes were initially defeated, Gongsun Zan was hunted down by Lu Bu, and then Liu Guan Zhang shot to save Gongsun Zan, and it was Sanying In the story of the battle against Lu Bu, after this defeat, Lu Bu retreated and returned to Hulao Pass.After that, the armies of the princes pressed up, but they failed to capture Hulao Pass after all.But this battle also frightened Dong Zhuo enough, so Dong Zhuo burned the Luoyang palace and forced Han Xiandi to move his capital to Chang'an.Later, Dong Zhuo wanted to defend Luoyang again, but he couldn't stop Sun Jian's attack, so he had no choice but to flee Luoyang, but this time he escaped, but he also brought the people of Luoyang with him. The people were abused, humiliated and abused by Dong Zhuo's army Along the way, people lost their lives.

And Liu Bian also understood that the current situation was quite different from what he knew.

First of all, Sun Jian is no longer under Yuan Shu's command, but belongs to himself.At the beginning, Yuan Shao didn't plan to capture Hulao Pass himself because of his greed for merit. Speaking of which, at least as far as Liu Bian knew, he didn't do that.But now, the situation has changed, and Liu Bian has decided to increase his influence at this time.

His eyes narrowed slightly, Liu Bian looked at Cao Cao and said:

"The time has come, Meng De, immediately send a fast horse to inform Wentai, Yun Cheng, public festival! Reorganize the army immediately, and march to the battlefield here! Fight Lu Bu, break the tiger prison, and fight here!"

Cao Cao's body shook, and he looked at Liu Bian with incredible eyes.

"Your Highness...you...why did you say that? Although the two armies are confronting each other, the time is not yet ripe...The eight princes are still alive, and Lu Bu is not exhausted..."

"The time has come."

Liu Bian shook his head lightly and said, "Meng De, the timing is actually not completely in our hands, nor is it completely in the hands of Yuan Shao, but Dong Zhuo in Hulao Pass and Hulao Pass are also in control of the timing." Lu Bu outside the pass."

"Now that Lu Bu has just won the victory, the three thousand cavalry have defeated the three-way coalition of princes, no matter what, it is considered a big victory, and the other five-way coalition that has just arrived here must have been photographed by Lu Bu in the name of Lu Bu. It's been made clear."

Liu Bian looked directly into Cao Cao's eyes and said, "Meng De thought that your original job was to provide assistance to the rear. If there were no real difficulties, why would the eight princes need to consult with you again? Tu, it is Cao Cao's elite soldiers and strong generals who can help them fight against Lu Bu."

"At this time, three of the Eighth Route Allied Forces were routed by Lu Bu. When the rest heard the news, they must have feared Lu Bu in the army. At this time, it was not the time for our army to attack, but it was the time for the army to attack. It's a great time for Lu Bu to come and take advantage of the victory!"

"Lü Bu will definitely not give up on this opportunity. Now that the Eighth Route Allied Forces are here, Lv Bu will definitely come to call for a fight. The Eighth Route princes are inherently unstable in their army. As long as Lv Bu is tough, I am afraid that none of the Eight Route princes will make him an opponent. The princes of the Eight Routes have their own thoughts, even if they are asked to help each other, I am afraid it will not work, even if it is the best ending, it will definitely be a loss for both sides, and when the time comes, it will be the best time for our army to fight!"

After listening to Liu Bian's explanation, Cao Cao's eyes lit up, and he finally understood the reason for Liu Bian's arrangement.

But there are still some unknowns.

After much deliberation, Cao Cao decided to ask: "May I ask Your Highness, if the eight princes really fail to succeed and those killed by Lv Bu break up and flee, then Lv Bu's army will become more powerful, what will happen to our army?"

This is indeed a very realistic problem. It is not that Cao Cao overestimated Lu Bu, but that Lu Bu's previous achievements were too terrifying. Three thousand cavalry were unstoppable in the three-way allied forces. If Lu Bu directly attracted tens of thousands of soldiers and horses Come to fight, relying on the unstable military spirit of the Eighth Route princes, even if there is a surplus of Lu Bu's troops, the probability of defeat is not without possibility.

"It doesn't matter."

Liu Bian smiled lightly: "Meng De, this is the beauty of your rescue army in the rear."

"No matter how powerful Lü Bu's army is, there will be days when people are tired and horses are tired. When chasing the princes of the Eight Routes, Lü Bu will definitely divide his troops, but the distance from our army to the Eight Routes Alliance Army is exactly one. At that time, Lü Bu’s army will be dispersed and its strength will be at the end of its strength. But our army is waiting for work, and we only need one round of counter-charge to defeat Lv Bu’s army!"

"What's more, even if Lv Bu's army can win, it depends not only on the strength of the army, but also on Lv Bu's own invincible title. As long as we kill Lv Bu, we will definitely be able to shake the morale of Lv Bu's army! At that time, we only need to cover and kill the army It is not impossible to break through Hulao Pass and kill Dong Zhuo in one fell swoop by relying on the military power brought by beheading Lv Bu and defeating Lv Bu's army!"
