Lu Bu's strongest strategy

Chapter 15
Jin Yun laughed and said, "General Fan, you're fine!"

Fan Yi immediately cupped his hands, "Magistrate Jin, I believe I have read it, and I am very pleased that you can make this choice."

Jin Yun made a gesture of invitation, "General Fan, let's go to the city for a talk."

Fan Yi didn't doubt it either, and directly patted his horse and headed towards the city gate.

Just as he was walking halfway, Jin Yun suddenly yelled loudly, and the next moment, the surrounding soldiers and horses immediately surrounded him, blocking the pan and his subordinates.

At this moment, Fan Yi finally felt that something was wrong, turned to look at Jin Yun, and asked in a deep voice, "Magistrate Jin, what do you mean?"

Jin Yun sneered, "General Fan, what I mean is to ask the general to surrender, what do you think?"

Fan Yi's face changed, "Magistrate Jin, don't forget that your family members are still in Puyang, if you change your mind now, you will just pretend that nothing happened."

Jin Yun shook his head, "General Fan, thank you for your kindness. Lu Bu betrayed his faith and killed without justice. If the general can submit to Duke Cao, he will have a bright future."

Fan Yi cupped his hands at Jin Yun, "Please forgive me for not being able to follow orders."

Hearing this, Jin Yun's slender eyes narrowed slightly, his face finally changed color, and he sneered.

"In that case, don't blame me for being ruthless."

After he finished speaking, Jin Yun waved his hand vigorously, and the archer who had been waiting at the side immediately drew his bow and released the arrow.

shhhhhh!
"Ahhh!"

"Jin Yun, you are so ruthless, Marquis Wen will not let you go."

Jin Yun looked at Fan Yi who fell from the horse, turned his head and shouted loudly, "Lieutenant Wang, I'll see you next?"

Wang Xiaowei arched his hands and led the soldiers who had already been waiting for orders, rushing all the way towards the camp in the pan.

In the big camp, Fan Yi's subordinates were defenseless, and they were completely defeated by Cao Jun who rushed in suddenly. They were defeated immediately and fled in all directions.

……

Puyang.

Lu Bu, dressed in military uniform, was sitting in the middle of the hall, his tiger eyes were shining brightly, and he was not angry.

"Tomorrow is the expedition, can all the ministries be ready?"

At this moment, the generals gathered in the room are all direct descendants of Lu Bu.

Such as Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Cheng Lian and others.

When everyone heard Lu Bu's question, they immediately bowed to salute and shouted in unison.

"The preparations are complete, please rest assured, Marquis Wen."

Lu Bu was about to dispatch troops, when suddenly there were hurried footsteps outside the door, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and looked up towards the direction of the door.

Soon, Chenliu prefect Zhang Miao strode in from the door with a dusty soldier.

Before Lu Bu could ask a question, Zhang Miao said anxiously, "Marquis Wen, it's bad, Fan Yi was killed, and our army was defeated by the defenders of Fan County."

"What?" Hearing the news, Lu Bu was startled and asked loudly.

"Meng Zhuo, what are you talking about, General Fan was killed, please explain clearly, what is going on?"

Fan Yi was Zhang Miao's powerful general, and now he was killed, and he felt very heartbroken. Hearing the question, he sighed, turned his head and waved to the soldiers.

"You tell Marquis Wen what happened."

The soldier stepped forward to salute, told what had happened, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Jin Yun's heart is like a dog, he lied to my general, and that's why he was killed. Marquis Wen, you must avenge my general!"

Zhang Miao's face was a little sad, "When two armies are fighting, victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, even if you die in battle, it is justifiable.

It's just a pity that General Fan's benevolence fell for Jin Yun's tricks, which really makes people feel a little annoyed! "

Lu Bu got up and came to Zhang Miao's side, and comforted him, "Meng Zhuo, don't worry, we must avenge General Fan's revenge."

After finishing speaking, Lu Bu turned his head and shouted at the generals, "The generals will go back to reorganize the army. Tomorrow morning, our army will head to Fan County to avenge General Fan."

Zhang Miao was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Marquis Wen, if our army goes to Fan County, in case Juancheng sends troops and takes the opportunity to attack Puyang, what should we do?"

Lu Bu is now in Puyang, Juancheng is the first to bear the brunt in the northeast, Fan County is second, and Dong'e is the last.

Chen Gong and Fan Yi also took a detour in order to attack the two places.

If Lu Bu's army also detours to Fan County, Juancheng will be behind.

Lu Bu led troops to Fan County, and if Juancheng sent troops to Puyang, the rescue would be too late. Zhang Miao was worried about this.

Lu Bu waved his hand, "Meng Zhuo, I'll set off tomorrow, and I'll only bring my own soldiers and horses. As for your soldiers and horses staying behind to defend the city, even if troops come from Juancheng, it will not be easy to break through the city."

Hearing these words, Zhang Miao felt relieved.

The soldiers and horses in Puyang City consist of three parts.

The first part, of course, is his headquarters soldiers and horses. Most of these soldiers and horses are recruited in Hanoi, about 5000 people.

The second part is Chen Gong's troops. This part of soldiers and horses is the Dongjun garrison recruited by Chen Gong. There are about 2000 people. They have all been taken away this time.

The third part is the subordinates of Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu. Among them are the soldiers and horses of Zhang Chao, Zhang Miao's younger brother. The combined number of soldiers and horses of the two is about 1.

This time, troops were dispatched from Panyi, and 2000 people were taken away, leaving 8000 people.

These three soldiers and horses obeyed Lu Bu's command in name, but in fact, they were still in charge of their own soldiers and horses, and only when fighting, they would merge into one place and obey Lu Bu's dispatch.

If Lu Bu sent troops this time, if he only took away 5000 troops from his headquarters, then Zhang Miao's soldiers and horses who stayed behind to defend the city would have 8000 troops, more than enough to defend Puyang City.

The next day, at dawn, Lu Bujun had already left Puyang and rushed towards Fan County.

Lu Bu's army had just left Puyang. Cao Jun's spies, who had been waiting for news outside the city, identified the direction of the army and immediately rushed back to Juancheng.

Xiahou Dun, who was inspecting the city wall, was taken aback when he received the news from the spies. He didn't dare to neglect, got off the city wall, mounted his horse, and went straight to find Xun Yu.

Xun Yu, who was dealing with government affairs, saw Xiahou Dun coming in a hurry and was about to ask questions, but Xiahou Dun spoke first.

"Wen Ruo, it's too bad, Lu Bu led troops to Fan County, should we send troops to reinforce?"

Hearing this news, Xun Yu's eyes showed a hint of surprise, and then he smiled slightly.

"If there is no accident, the target of Lu Bu's army's attack should be Juancheng. Unexpectedly, it has changed."

Xiahou Dun, who was originally nervous, felt a little relieved when he saw Xun Yu's calm face.

"Wen Ruo, hurry up and tell me whether you want reinforcements, or it will be too late."

Xun Yu put down the pen in his hand, and asked slowly, "General Xiahou, you haven't said how many soldiers and horses Lu Bu led, and how many cavalry are among the soldiers and horses?"

Xiahou Dun thought for a while, "There are about 5000 people, and Lu Bu's elite Bingzhou cavalry is among them."
