"Today there is only Xuzhou left in the world. Once recovered, the great cause of unification can be completed. At that time, there will be no more wars and chaos in the world, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment. You can also go home and share the family relationship with your parents, wives and daughters."
"Now I just ask one question, all the soldiers, are you willing to fight this final battle with Gu!"
Lv Bu was full of energy, and he let out a loud shout, which was heard by all the soldiers.
"Battle! Fight! Fight!"
The blood in the hearts of all the soldiers was already surging, and they raised their weapons high and shouted in unison, shaking the heavens.
Afterwards, under the command of Lu Bu, the [-] troops set out from Yanzhou and headed straight for Xuzhou.
…………
Within a few days, the news of Lu Bu's attack spread throughout the counties of Xuzhou.
The name of a man, the shadow of a tree.
Decades of fighting have already made Lu Bu's name famous all over the world.But all the powerful princes from all sides who contended with him were defeated one after another.Now knowing that Lu Bu has set foot in Xuzhou, not only the people of Xuzhou, but even officials from all over the country are panicked.
After all, with the lessons learned from Cao Cao's massacre of Xuzhou, no one knows whether Lu Bu will repeat his old tricks.
On the other hand, Lu Bu, on the suggestion of his son-in-law Guo Jia, focused on attacking the heart, and issued a notice to Xuzhou.
But those who surrender will not be killed, and all local officials will still be retained in their original positions. If there is a master who greets them in the open city, they will be presented to the court and be promoted and rewarded.
In addition, all Lu Jun soldiers are not allowed to invade the fields of the people, let alone loot money.Otherwise, it will be done in accordance with military law.
After the call to arms was issued, all parts of Xuzhou fell in anticipation.
In just two months, all 34 counties in Xuzhou, including Pengcheng, Langya, and Donghai, fell into the hands of Lu Bu.
Xuzhou City, State Shepherd's Mansion.
"Waste, what a bunch of waste!"
In the empty hall, looking at the battle reports received one after another in his hand, even Liu Bei, who was gentle and kind enough on weekdays, turned his face dark and couldn't help cursing angrily.
He originally thought that with Xuzhou's military strength and money, he would be able to persist for three to five years, but it turned out that in just two months, half of Xuzhou's territory had fallen.
Just the day before yesterday, General Lu Jun, who had marched in five routes, successfully joined forces with Lu Bu in Pengcheng.
One hundred thousand troops gathered in Pengcheng, and the next target was clearly the main city of Xuzhou where Liu Bei was.
These years, Liu Bei managed his business carefully in Xuzhou. Although he was deeply supported by the common people and had accumulated a reputation of benevolence, the local gentry in Xuzhou did not recognize Liu Bei at all.
Take the previous crusade against Lu Bu as an example, Liu Bei ran around, even if he drank his saliva, he failed to borrow soldiers and horses from those gentry, and all he brought with him was the property he had accumulated over the years.
If it weren't for the support of the Mi and Chen families, Liu Bei, an outsider, would have been driven out of Xuzhou by the gentry.
"My lord, the generals and lords have arrived and are waiting for you in the front hall." Personal guard Chen Dao said respectfully from outside.
"Understood." Liu Bei said lightly, quickly calmed down, walked out of the door, and walked to the front hall where the discussion was held.
When they came to the front hall, everyone in the hall saw Liu Bei's arrival, they all stood up and saluted, and shouted: "I have seen the lord (envoy)!"
Liu Bei raised his hand, signaling that everyone needn't be too polite.
They sat down again, and Chen Deng, who was in charge of Xuzhou, noticed that Liu Bei's eyes were red, and couldn't help asking: "Master, why are your eyes so red and swollen?"
Hearing these words, other people also looked at Liu Bei, as Chen Deng said, Liu Bei's eyes were really red and swollen.
"My lord, you must take care of your health. At this juncture, you must not fall down!"
"My lord, there is nothing to cry about. At worst, let's fight him to death!"
"My lord, take a good rest. If I'm waiting here, I'll call him Xuzhou Wuyu."
Everyone talked to each other and persuaded Liu Bei one after another.
Hearing everyone's persuasion, Liu Bei shook his head slightly, cupped his hands and bowed to everyone, sighed and said: "Thank you for your concern, Bei is not crying for himself, but for the Han family, country, and society!"
"What do you mean by that?" Someone asked.
Liu Bei spoke slowly.
"Lü Bu became king, and his disobedience is obvious. If Xuzhou is captured again, he will surely use this to force the emperor to take the throne. Losing Xuzhou is a small matter, but if it is because of me that Lu Bu, a thief, succeeds in usurping the throne, it will destroy the great man for 400 years. I am a sinner of the ages!
Every time I think of this, my heart feels like a knife is twisting, and I can't sleep at night..."
As he spoke, tears flowed down again.
Seeing this, everyone was also touched.
"Your Majesty, don't worry, you are so benevolent and generous, even if I risk my life, I will definitely help you defend this land of Xuzhou!" Cao Bao, the general in Xuzhou City, said resolutely, with great vigor to fight Lu Bu to the end .
Since the death of Guan and Zhang, Liu Bei's generals are in short supply. Cao Bao is the head of the Cao family, a big family in Xuzhou. He is very powerful in Xuzhou. His support can be regarded as a relief.
"That's right, whether it's for Xuzhou or for the Han Dynasty, we must not lose to Lu Bu!" The Chen family and their son also expressed their attitude.
"My lord, I am willing to spend all my wealth to recruit soldiers and horses for you!"
Mi Zhu, God of Wealth, also spoke.
"thanks, thanks……"
With tears in Liu Bei's eyes, he kept thanking everyone. When he looked at the silver-white dragon figure in the hall, the latter also met Liu Bei's gaze. He stood up and clasped his fists: "Someone Although I am not talented, but if there is a place where it is useful, let the envoy drive me!"
"Good! Good! Good!"
Liu Bei called three good words in a row, and with the help of [-] Youzhou cavalry, his chances of winning were at least halved.
Everyone was fighting against each other, and Liu Bei felt a little more confident. He looked at the crowd and united them together: "With your help, Lu Bu has nothing to worry about!"
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
Liu Bei's words were firm.
After the words fell to the ground, Chen Gui kindly reminded: "Your envoy, don't be careless. Lu Bu is brave and good at fighting, and there are many tigers and wolves under his command. We should deal with it carefully."
"Old Chen's words are reasonable, but I don't know if there is a good strategy?"
Liu Bei nodded slightly, acting very humble.
The eyes of everyone in the hall were also cast on the Patriarch of the Xu family who is very prestigious in Xuzhou.
"Lü Bu's army joins Pengcheng, and the next target is definitely Xuzhou. But..."
