The Strongest Lu Bu: Sweeping the World

"Thank you Marquis Wen." Jia Xu cupped his hands.

Lu Bu looked around at the crowd and said, "Our army occupying Pei County and winning the flag will inevitably cause confusion for the Yanzhou army. In my opinion, this is not enough. The Yanzhou army has more than 4 people, even if thousands of people are lost. , the troops are still far superior to our army, you must not slack off just because of a small victory."

"Here." Everyone said in unison.

Jia Xu nodded secretly. Lu Bu was able to beat the generals in the army at such a time, and it must have played a big role. As the saying goes, if an army thinks it is invincible, it will be very common to fail. matter.

"I don't know what Wenhe can do to defeat the enemy?" Lu Bu turned his attention to Jia Xu.

Jia Xu pondered for a moment and said: "Marquis Wen, from the view of my humble position, it is better to take the initiative to attack the enemy. Although the Yanzhou army is numerous and powerful, after this defeat, they must be panic-stricken. Our army suddenly rushed out. In addition, the cavalry moves across the battlefield like the wind, and the Yanzhou army must be able to stop them, and if they miss a single blow, they can escape far away."

Lu Bu laughed loudly and said, "If that's the case, the Yanzhou army must be exhausted. If they want to benefit from this general, I will let the Yanzhou army know what is powerful."

"Marquis Wen is brave, the Yanzhou army can't resist it." Jia Xu laughed.

Zhang Liao immediately went out and said: "General, the last general is willing to lead a thousand cavalry to face the Yanzhou army."

Hearing the words, other generals in the army, not to be outdone, stepped forward one after another. This is a great opportunity to show their abilities in front of Lu Bu. The combat effectiveness of the Yanzhou Army has been demonstrated before. Getting benefits in your hands is simply harder than reaching the sky.

On the battlefield in Yanzhou, the Xuzhou army is the master of the battlefield.

Lu Bu shook his head and said, "In this battle, I will personally lead the cavalry to fight. Cao Xing and Wei Xu will just follow me. The rest of the soldiers will guard Pei County and check out the surrounding situation to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the chaos and making a surprise attack."

"Here." Seeing Lu Bu's resolute tone, the lieutenant general could only bow his hands and say "here."

In the army, Lu Bu's words had an absolute effect, but all generals in the army had to carry out Lu Bu's orders to the letter, and the generals under Lu Bu's command were already used to such things.

They were willing to follow Lu Bu's side because of Lu Bu's charm, otherwise, given Lu Bu's current reputation, everyone spurned him, how could there be any soldiers willing to follow him.

Lu Bu on the battlefield is the enemy's nightmare.

The next day, Lu Bu gathered [-] cavalry and came towards Changyi. The army marched forward, and the scouts rushed towards the surrounding area, trying to find out the surrounding situation as much as possible, so that the general can make timely adjustments based on this information.

The war is related to Lu Bu's future fate in Xuzhou, so he needs to be more cautious.

Soldiers are a major national event. If a battle is not handled with care, even if you have elite soldiers and horses under your command, there is a possibility of failure.

The scouts are the eyes and ears of an army. With the scouts constantly sending news from the battlefield, the commander of the army can respond in time to avoid unnecessary losses.

Bao Xin led an army of tens of thousands to guard Pei County. Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai was quite at ease. When the princes attacked Dong Zhuo, Bao Xin was one of them. Although he did not perform very well on the battlefield outside Luoyang, the princes The coalition is still victorious.

Bao Xin's loyalty is what Liu Dai is most satisfied with. This is also the reason why Bao Xin, the Prime Minister of Jinbei, still exists after Qiao Mao, the prefect of Dongjun, was killed.

Killing Qiao Mao, the prefect of Dongjun, is not Liu Dai's establishment of his status in Yanzhou. Although Liu Dai was the governor of Yanzhou at that time, he did not have enough control over the army under his command, otherwise Yanzhou would not have appeared when the princes attacked Dong Zhuo. the strength.

The state shepherd has absolute dominion over the land of a state. Liu Dai wants to firmly control the power of the state shepherd in his hands. Anyone who dares to challenge his authority will be punished.

In order to win the battle against the Xuzhou army, Liu Dai mobilized as many troops as possible. Except for the army stationed in the city, the Yanzhou army mobilized reached more than [-].

"According to the news from Xuzhou, Lu Bu is only leading 5000 people to invade Yanzhou. It is simply beyond his control." Liu Dai said disdainfully.

Dongjun Taishou Cao Cao said: "Zhou Mu, from the point of view of the following officials, this matter should be cautious. There are many yellow turbans in Yanzhou, and now the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans are showing signs of fleeing to Yanzhou. We have to guard against them, and Lu Bu is brave and good at fighting. , outside Hulao Pass in the past, beheaded and killed many princes and fierce generals, this should not be underestimated."

"Meng De, the Yellow Turbans from Qingzhou fled to Yanzhou? How do you know that?" Liu Dai questioned. Compared with the Xuzhou Army, in Liu Dai's eyes, the threat of the Yellow Turbans is still relatively large.

Cao Cao said: "This is just a guess for the lower officials. The most important thing right now is to defeat Lu Bu."

"Lü Bu is not worth mentioning. Maybe Bao Guoxiang led the army to repel the Xuzhou army before Zhou Mu's army reached Pei County." Yuan Yi, the prefect of Shanyang, laughed.

Yuan Yi, the prefect of Shanyang, has a high status in Yanzhou. He can have a relationship with Yuan Shao, even if it is Liu Dai, he must be given three points.

"Prefect Yuan's words are reasonable, Xuzhou army is nothing to worry about, Lv Bu mobilizes the rebellious army to attack Yanzhou, it is beyond self-control." Liu Dai laughed.

Chapter 65 Mende's words are feasible

"Report, Bao Guoxiang led a large army to fight the Xuzhou army in Peixian County. The surprise attack on the enemy army failed and more than [-] people were lost." A general walked into the tent of the Chinese army and said loudly.

Liu Dai's complexion changed drastically, and he said angrily: "Bao Xin is so incompetent, he can't even stop the Xuzhou army, but lost more than [-] people."

"Chou Mu, please calm down. Lv Bu is a powerful general in this world, and he has experienced hundreds of battles. It is inevitable that Prime Minister Bao Guo's negligence will take advantage of him." Cao Cao persuaded.

Regarding Liu Dai's ability to lead the army, Cao Cao is not flattering. In the past, the army under Lv Bu's army escorted the grain, grass and luggage through Yanzhou. With some of the looted materials, Yanzhou's military strength can be improved in a short period of time.

The Yanzhou Army's dispatch not only failed, but also compensated Lu Bu for rice and armor. In the end, Liu Dai even recommended Lu Bu as Xuzhou Shepherd. This is the price to be paid after the defeat of the war.

Although Liu Dai's actions made other princes despise him, Liu Dai had to make such a choice at that time, otherwise, if Lu Bu sent elite cavalry into Yanzhou when Yanzhou was unstable, it would bring even greater damage to Yanzhou. turmoil.

"Incompetent, I can't even do a good job of guarding Pei County. When he returns to the army, he will be dealt with by military law." How could Liu Dai's anger be calmed down so easily.

"Report, Jibei Prime Minister Bao Xin once again led a large army to raid the Xuzhou military camp. With the captain Xu Zhong as the internal response, Lv Bu saw through it. He suffered heavy losses, and Pei County was lost."

If the news just now was outrageous, this news was like a bolt from the blue to Liu Dai. It took only half a month for the army to go to battle. How much of the tens of thousands of troops led by Bao Xin is left, and how much will the soldiers under his command have to fight? to speak of.

Liu Dai's complexion was ashen, his hands trembled slightly, and his heart could not be calm.

The faces of Yuan Yi and Cao Cao were not very good. The situation on the battlefield changed beyond their expectations. Even if Bao Xin failed to attack the Xuzhou army, he could stick to Pei County and wait for the arrival of the army. What is the reason that made Bao Xin Xin is willing to give up the strong city and go out of the city to raid the Xuzhou army. Isn't the lesson of one failure not profound enough, so he has to try it a second time?

"Zhou Mu calm down. Although Xuzhou's army was lucky enough to win, our army still has [-] troops. With Zhou Mu personally leading the army, Lu Bu is not worried." Cao Cao said.

Liu Dai snorted coldly, "Lu Bu is nothing to worry about? I remember that Meng De fought against Lu Bu outside Luoyang City, right?"

Cao Cao's complexion changed slightly. The battle of chasing Dong Zhuo was his shame. Not only did he lose his troops, but he also received an arrow from Lv Bu. If Cao Hong hadn't tried his best to save him, he might have fallen on the battlefield. Le Jin died in the hands of Lv Bu. Now Li Dian is working under Lu Bu's command.

The result of such a war is regarded as a shame for Cao Cao.

"After I see Lu Bu, I will definitely defeat him." Liu Dai gritted his teeth.

Cao Cao suffered humiliation from Lv Bu, and so did Liu Dai, the shepherd of Yanzhou. The above table recommends Lu Bu as the shepherd of Xuzhou. How will the princes of the world view this matter? Knowing that Lv Bu is a traitor, they recommend him. This is strength Vulnerability at its best.

"Zhou Mu, I have a strategy. If it succeeds, it will definitely make Lu Bu feel uncomfortable." Cao Cao thought for a moment and stepped forward. No matter how sarcastic Liu Dai was just now, the most important thing now is to defeat the Xuzhou army.

Liu Dai nodded, signaling Cao Cao to continue.

"At this time, there are only 3000 soldiers stationed in Pengcheng. If the state herdsman sends an elite force to take Pengcheng directly, Xuzhou will definitely be shaken. Lu Bu's rule of Xuzhou is a plunder in itself. After losing Pengcheng, how can the officials of Xuzhou Follow Lü Bu's orders, and if the rear is unstable, Lv Bu will surely fail." Cao Cao said slowly.

Tao Qian, who had always been taciturn, stepped forward and said, "I think Meng De's words are feasible."

Liu Dai said: "There are no elite cavalry in our army, how can we raid Pengcheng?"

"Your Majesty is willing to lead five thousand soldiers and horses to raid Pengcheng." Yuan Yi, the prefect of Shanyang, came out and said.

In Yuan Yi's opinion, it is easier to lead a large army to raid Pengcheng than to fight head-on with Xuzhou's army. Lu Bu's brutal temperament must be unpopular in Xuzhou. Anyway, he still has a certain relationship with the Yuan family of the fourth generation and third father. Yes, if you secretly order people to persuade you a little, there will definitely be many families vying to take refuge, so why worry about not being able to break through Xuzhou.

The court is not clear, and it is common for princes to attack each other. At this time, whoever has power in their hands can get more benefits in the future situation.

"Okay, if Prefect Yuan comes out, we will definitely win the battle." Liu Dai has no doubts about him.

Yuan Yi led the army and left Yanzhou's army for only one day, but on the way, he encountered the remnants of the defeated army led by Bao Xin.

After hearing the plan of the Yanzhou Army, Bao Xin decided to follow Yuan Yi in a shameless manner. In his current state, if he returned to the Yanzhou Army, he would definitely be punished. If he made contributions in this raid on Xuzhou, Liu Dai's anger will surely subside.

Yuan Yi was also so happy, Liu Dai has a lot of troops anyway, and it will be of great help on the battlefield in Xuzhou.

On the second day after Yuan Yi left, the Yanzhou army discovered the traces of the Xuzhou cavalry.

The scouts of the Yanzhou Army did not find out how many people there were, and the scouts of the Yanzhou Army paid a heavy price when they confronted the scouts of the Xuzhou Army.

The combat effectiveness of the scouts on both sides is not at the same level at all. It is so relaxing and comfortable to watch the various skillful movements of the Xuzhou army cavalry on the horse, as if they are performing.

The scouts of the Yanzhou Army who were in charge of inquiring about the news felt uneasy. They were also cavalry. The difference in riding skills between the two sides was more than a star and a half. Some actions of the Xuzhou cavalry were difficult for even some generals in the Yanzhou Army to complete.

At the beginning, the cavalry under Lu Bu's command certainly did not have such skilled riding skills, but with the support of stirrups, the situation is very different. Stirrups are an inconspicuous thing. This is the thing, and most of the stirrups are single-sided stirrups, which are just to assist the cavalry to get on and off the horse.

The bilateral stirrups can help the cavalry to stabilize their figure on the horse and free their hands. Such a change will definitely play a huge role in a battle.

Charge yourself, your hands can wield a weapon flexibly, the power is naturally incomparable.

The double-sided stirrups were built by Lu Bu's craftsmen in secret, in order to improve the combat effectiveness of the cavalry as soon as possible.

The scouts encountered, and the confrontation was also fierce. From time to time, the scouts of the Yanzhou army fell on the battlefield. They boasted of their excellent riding skills, and they were vulnerable to the Xuzhou cavalry.

Chapter 66 Cao Cao is here (for collection)

Some scouts of the Yanzhou army even turned around and fled when they saw the Xuzhou cavalry coming. They didn't have the confidence to go forward to fight.

After Liu Dai learned of what had happened to the scouts, he felt a little uneasy. The scouts' inquiring about the news would not help the army's next actions. If the scouts lost their due role, it would definitely be bad for an army.

Cao Cao said: "Zhou Mu, from the point of view of my subordinates, this is a test by the Xuzhou army. You should order more scouts to inquire about the news, and try to control the situation on the battlefield as much as possible."

Liu Dai nodded slightly, "Meng De, I will leave it to you to inquire about the situation on the battlefield."

"Here." Cao Cao cupped his hands.

After becoming the prefect of Dongjun, Cao Cao announced his existence to the officials of Yanzhou with victories in successive wars. The Yellow Turban of Dongjun disappeared because of Cao Cao's arrival.

Incorporating the elite of the Yellow Turban Army strengthened Cao Cao's troops. To face Lu Bu, Cao Cao brought 500 elites, including [-] cavalry.

When fighting against Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao saw how effective an elite cavalry would be on the battlefield. This is an elite force that can control the battlefield. Even though the situation at the time was not very good, Cao Cao still gritted his teeth and formed a cavalry team , in order to have more possibilities to win in the war.

"General, there is news from the scouts that the Yanzhou army has been dispatched. It seems to be the troops of Cao Cao, the prefect of Dongjun." Cao Xing stepped forward and said.

Lu Bu's eyes tightened, "Have you ever checked it out?"

Seeing Lu Bu's solemn tone, Cao Xing immediately said, "The final general will order people to investigate."

"Go in person, and try your best to clarify the main general and the number of the enemy army." Lu Bu urged.

"The general will understand." Cao Xing was ordered to ride away.

"Cao Cao? The battle outside Luoyang does not leave you with a deep memory. I heard that the general led the troops and dared to fight. I would not mind beheading all the fierce generals under your command." Lu Bu sneered.

In Lu Bu's development plan, Cao Cao is a strong opponent. Cao Cao's methods are extraordinary. He serves as the governor of Dongjun. If something happens to Liu Dai, Cao Cao is likely to take control of Yanzhou. This is what Cao Cao showed after he took office as the governor of Dongjun. The ability is still recognized by Yanzhou officials.

"General, then Cao Cao is just the general of the defeated army. As long as the general leads the cavalry, he will surely defeat Cao Cao in one fell swoop." Wei Xu said.

Lu Bu shook his head and said, "Cao Cao must be so simple on the surface, so don't underestimate it. When facing the enemy, you can win more victories only by being more careful."

"Thank you, General, for your teaching." Wei Xu clasped his fists together, and suddenly realized that Lu Bu in front of him was very different from before.

Not only Wei Xu, but also the generals who followed Lu Bu could feel the changes in Lu Bu. After occupying Xuzhou, Lu Bu was more calm when encountering things, and when considering things, he was more comprehensive than before. Such a change made the generals in the army happy.

Lu Bu laughed and said, "Of course, as long as the battle starts, we must move forward bravely, otherwise, how can the soldiers under our command work harder?"

Wei Xu nodded. Lu Bu did exactly this in previous battles. This is why as long as Lu Bu is in the army, the fighting spirit of the soldiers will be improved to a greater extent.

The main general is brave enough to move forward in the face of battle, let alone the soldiers under his command, why do they not be careful in the battle?

After half an hour, Cao Xing returned.

"General, the one leading the army is Cao Cao, the prefect of Dongjun. His commander has about 6000 soldiers, and he also has a lot of cavalry under his command. Now Cao Jun's scouts are investigating the situation on the battlefield." Cao Xing dismounted and dismounted. Said in a breathless tone.

Lu Bu laughed and said, "Cao Cao can't help but want to make a move. If I don't give Cao Cao a big gift, how can I do it?"

"The last general invites you to fight." Cao and Wei Xu looked at each other and stepped forward.

Lu Bu said: "Before the battle, let Cao Cao feel bad. Cao Xing, I ordered you to lead the elite cavalry to destroy the enemy's scouts, so that it is difficult for the enemy's scouts to get any news."

"Here." Cao Xing clasped his fists and said.

"General Wei Xu, temporarily follow the general to wait for dispatch, and tell the cavalry in the army to prepare for battle. As long as the general gives an order, they can step forward to confront the enemy at any time." Lu Bu said.

Wei Xu nodded and said yes, the fighting spirit in his chest was burning fiercely. In this battle, the Xuzhou army took the initiative to attack. In Wei Xu's view, as long as Lu Bu's order is the same, even if the Xuzhou army does not come Will the Yanzhou army give up attacking Xuzhou because of this?

Following Lu Bu, the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army will win battles one after another, making the enemy tremble in the ensuing battles and making them feel the fierceness of the Xuzhou Army.

The scouts of the two armies clashed on the battlefield. After Cao Cao accepted the task of scouting on the battlefield, he understood how difficult this operation would be. The most powerful under Lu Bu's command was the cavalry. The loss of Lu Bu's cavalry.

On the battlefield, the cavalry comes and goes like the wind. It takes more effort to stop the cavalry from moving forward.

The fierce confrontation between the scouts was beyond imagination, and scouts from the Yanzhou Army kept falling on the battlefield.

"I don't think the cavalry under Lu Bu's command are so brave." Cao Cao sighed.

The confrontation of the scouts can largely see the gap between the cavalry of the two sides. During this period of time, Cao Cao has studied a lot of cavalry-related things in order to obtain an elite cavalry.

Xia Houyuan said angrily when he heard the words: "The final general is willing to lead the cavalry forward and kill the rebels."

"Don't be reckless." Cao Cao waved his hand. Judging from Xuzhou's movements after dispatching troops, Lu Bu was not as simple as it appeared on the surface. The successive actions caused the Yanzhou army to suffer a lot.

"Let the scouts carefully search for news on the battlefield, and it is best to find traces of the enemy." Cao Cao urged.

On the battlefield, you need to be brave, but you also need to be cautious. If you have more than enough bravery but not enough calmness, it is likely to put the army in a dangerous situation.

Cao Cao can also be regarded as a general who has led troops many times, and he is not weaker than others in terms of his ability to lead troops in battle.

No matter how carefully the cavalry under Cao Cao tried to inquire about the situation on the battlefield, it was always difficult to accurately obtain the movement of Xuzhou's army, and the cavalry belonging to Cao Cao's side did not dare to rush forward on the battlefield. Who can be sure that there are no enemy troops ahead? the ambush.
