Three Kingdoms: copy Lu Bu's force at the beginning

However, after Lu Bu took his family members and soldiers under his command out of the East Gate of Chang'an, he was worried that Ma Teng and Han Sui would send troops to chase after him, so he ran all the way.

Lu Bu breathed a sigh of relief after leaving Jing Zhaoyin completely and entering the territory of Hongnong County.

Anyway, it was escaped.

Twenty thousand Bingzhou elites were brought out.

Song Xian, Hou Cheng, Hao Meng, Liu He, and Wang He were brought out.

All the family members, except Yan Shi and Lu Lingqi, were also brought out.

Moreover, with these five generals and [-] Bingzhou elites, no matter which princes they go to, they must be guests.

Zhang Liao had also been notified by Lu Bu's scouts early on, and personally led [-] troops to meet him.

"The last general, Zhang Liao, met Marquis Wen."

It's been a long time since I saw Lu Bu, but this time, seeing Lu Bu again, Zhang Liao didn't feel the same way as before.

It seems that Lu Bu and him are like passers-by.

Although, in name, Zhang Liao was still Lu Bu's subordinate.

But in the imperial court, Zhang Liao was appointed by the emperor as Zhonglang General and Hongnong Prefect.

Zhang Liao also learned about the changes in Chang'an City from Lu Bu's scouts.

This news also surprised Zhang Liao.

How long has it been? For more than a month, the city of Chang'an has changed again.

Lu Bu nodded: "Wen Yuan doesn't need to be too polite."

"This time, something happened in Chang'an, and Ma Teng and Han Sui attacked Chang'an. It is really the crime of Liu Fan and Liu Dan."

"My Marquis has few soldiers, so I can only defeat Hongnong, join forces with Wenyuan, and then plan for Chang'an."

Seeking Chang'an again?

Zhang Liao couldn't help but think of the letter Hua Yu sent him not long ago.

Hua Yu said in the letter that Wang Yun acted arbitrarily and Lu Bu was arrogant and arrogant, which would inevitably make the emperor resent, all officials would not accept, and Chang'an would inevitably have another misfortune.

If Lü Bu's defeated army came to vote, he promised to attack Chang'an again, so Zhang Liao would never agree.

First, raising troops without an edict is tantamount to plotting rebellion.

Second, Ma Teng and Han Sui had just entered Chang'an, and they hadn't made such a perverse move as Dong Zhuo, so they couldn't imitate the Kwantung princes and raise their troops.

However, Lu Bu was Zhang Liao's former master, if he directly refused, it would be bad for Zhang Liao's reputation.

Therefore, Hua Yu gave Zhang Liao an idea in the letter.

Hearing Lu Bu's words, Zhang Liao couldn't help sighing inwardly, the champion is really a fortune teller.

At the same time, Zhang Liao felt a deep contempt for Lu Bu in his heart.

Zhang Liao even regretted it a little. When Lu Bu killed Ding Yuan, why didn't he take the opportunity to escape, and actually accepted someone like Lu Bu as the master?

Zhang Liao was about to speak when he suddenly saw that the general behind Lu Bu was missing three more people.

Hua Yu told Zhang Liao in detail about Gao Shun's rebellion by Lu Bu in a letter, which greatly reduced Zhang Liao's loyalty to Lu Bu.

Now, Zhang Liao's loyalty to Lu Bu is only 10 points.

In other words, Zhang Liao no longer regards Lu Bu as his lord.

Zhang Liao immediately asked, "May I ask Marquis Wen why Zichu, Wenyi and Ziyang are not with Marquis Wen?"

"They..." The muscles on Lu Bu's face twitched, and he said calmly, "The three of them stayed in Chang'an City for some reason, and did not come here with the Marquis."

Song Xian and the others knew what was going on, and they rolled their eyes together when they heard Lu Bu's cryptic words, but they didn't speak.

Suspicion suddenly arose in Zhang Liao's heart.

When Lu Bu came here, he fled here like a bereaved dog. How could it be possible that Wei Yue and the three were left in Chang'an City?

Even if the internal support is left behind, it shouldn't be generals like Wei Yue, Cheng Lian and Cao Xing.

Zhang Liao was a smart man, although he was suspicious, he didn't ask too much: "I reported to Marquis Wen, the general got the news, and led the army to meet Marquis Wen hastily, but didn't bring food, grass and equipment with the army."

"How about, Marquis Wen, let's take a rest in Huayin City first, and let the soldiers also rest for a while."

"At the end of the day, the grain, grass and ordnance will be transported, and then we will discuss the matter of going west to Chang'an. I wonder what Wen Hou wants?"

This is the truth, after all, there are [-] troops.

Without food, grass and ordnance, it is impossible to capture Chang'an.

Moreover, Ma Teng and Han Sui's Xiliang army has [-] troops, while Zhang Liao and Lu Bu's current combined army is only [-], which is far from enough.

And all the soldiers and horses in Hongnong County, added together, are only 5 people.

In addition to these 5000 soldiers and horses, Hangu Pass has 5000 troops and Luhun Pass has [-] troops.

The other [-] are in Yiyang. Once there is a war at Hangu Pass or Luhun Pass, the [-] soldiers and horses in Yiyang can support them at any time.

Of the [-] soldiers led by Zhang Liao, [-] of them were in Hongnong City, the prefecture, and [-] were in Huayin City.

The location of Huayin is very important.

From Huayin to the west is Jingzhaoyin, to the north is Zuofengyi County, and to the northeast is Hedong County. Therefore, Zhang Liao placed [-] troops here.

The southern part of Hongnong County is the Xiong'er Mountain in the eastern section of the Qinling Mountains and the Funiu Mountains. The land is sparsely populated.

Lu Bu didn't know that this was Zhang Liao's plan to slow down the army, so he nodded, "Okay, just follow Wen Yuan's words."

So, [-] troops entered Huayin City together.

Zhang Liao arranged a mansion for Lv Bu's family to live in.

When Lu Bu's family members got off the carriage, Zhang Liao deliberately paid attention, but did not see Lu Bu's wife Yan and daughter Lu Lingqi.

Yan Shi and Lu Lingqi did not follow.

Wei Yue, Cheng Lian and Cao Xing did not follow either.

Zhang Liao vaguely sensed that something must have happened when Lu Bu escaped from Chang'an.

That night, Zhang Liao held a banquet in Huayin City to welcome Lu Bu and his party.

Because he successfully escaped from Chang'an and Jing Zhaoyin, Lu Bu was also in a very relaxed mood. Before he knew it, he drank a few more glasses and left the banquet early to go back to rest.

Liu He and Wang He are now Lu Bu's left and right guards, so naturally they also left with Lu Bu.

Only Song Xian was left, and Zhang Liao took the opportunity to ask, "Meng Dian, Bo Gong, and Cheng Yin, the three of you seem to be injured, but when you fought out of Chang'an, were you injured by the enemy general?"

"I have ordered the best doctor in the army to come and bandage your wounds, how about it?"

"This..." The three of Song Xian blushed and didn't know what to say to Zhang Liao.

As explained above, Hao Meng was first bought by Wang Yun.

After that, Hao Meng persuaded Song Xian and Hou Cheng to turn their backs together and secretly took refuge in Wang Yun.

Because Lu Bu and Wang Yun have never turned against each other, the three of Hao Meng are still generals under Lu Bu's command in name.

Who would have thought that the Ma-Korean coalition forces would come suddenly, and with the cooperation of Liu Fan and Liu Dan, they would capture Chang'an City in one fell swoop and lead an army of [-] into the city.

If you don't go, it will be a dead end.

Therefore, without thinking about it, the three of Hao Meng chose to follow Lu Bu and abandon Wang Yun.

In themselves, they were instigated by Wang Yun for profit, not for their sincere loyalty to Wang Yun.

When Zhang Liao saw the three hesitated and faltered, his face immediately became displeased, and he shouted: "Why, you three already treat Zhang Liao as an outsider, not a brother?"
