"General Xu's words are wrong. This eastward march is the first time our army has gone out to seek thieves. We should show our momentum and make our lord famous. Therefore, the post of vanguard general should be entrusted to a general with superb martial arts, so that he can follow closely. The coming army is sounding the banner."

Among the generals, Huang Zhong came out and cupped his fists towards Lu Bu.

Compared with Guan Hai and Xu Rong, Huang Zhong can be regarded as an 'veteran' now.Since the crusade against the Yellow Turban, Huang Zhong has followed Lu Bu and participated in many battles.

What he meant by saying this is self-evident.

It's not that Huang Zhong is arrogant, but now in the entire military camp, except for the lord Lu Bu, none of the other people can be his opponent.

What's more, Huang Zhong's reputation was greatly shaken when he fought against the princes.

"All the generals are famous and intimidating the world, why don't you give up the vanguard position to the boy?" Outside the hall, a handsome young man stepped over the threshold and walked in.

When Lu Bu saw this person, joy flashed across his face, and he asked happily, "Wen Yuan, why are you back?"

At the end of last year, when Lu Bu returned to Bingzhou, he specially went to Yanmen County to offer two pillars of fragrance to the deceased old man. At that time, Zhang Liao was still wearing plain clothes and kept his filial piety at home.

Logically speaking, Zhang Liao should not leave home before the filial piety period expires.

"This is what my father meant. He wanted me to follow the general and learn more experience and strategies."

Zhang Liao replied that the old man said before his death that Zhang Liao's father was well-behaved and would not be a person who achieved great things.And Zhang Liao's father himself was well aware of this point, and he was also afraid that the Zhang family would decline under his hands, so he wanted to take advantage of Lu Bu's still thinking about the old man's incense, and wanted to tie the Zhang family to Lu Bu's big ship.

His son, is the best connection rope.

Lu Bu looked down at Zhang Liao, who held his head up and chest up, with a smile in his eyes.

I remember when we met for the first time, Zhang Liao was still a handsome young man holding a Hanxuan knife, and he followed him secretly all the way.

Now, in the blink of an eye, seven years have passed.

He was once a young boy, but now he is very handsome.

Zhang Liao is 21 years old this year.

Guan Hai, Xu Rong, Huang Zhong, and Zhang Liao all wanted to compete for the position of vanguard, which was a bit difficult.

Lu Bu raised his chin and compared them in his mind.

In terms of personal strength, Huang Zhong is undoubtedly ranked first.But in terms of commander-in-chief ability, both Xu Rong and Zhang Liao are much better than Huang Zhong.

But the position of vanguard is only responsible for leading the battle, and Guan Hai is not out of the question.

After much deliberation, Lu Bu had an answer, and he asked Zhang Liao solemnly, "Wen Yuan, are you confident?"

This reply basically acquiesced to Zhang Liao's request.

When Zhang Liao heard this, he certainly wouldn't flinch, and immediately clasped his fists together, and replied decisively: "I would like to issue a military order!"

It is true that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

"There is no need for a military order, this general trusts you."

Lu Bu did not agree to the request of the 'Military Order'. It is common for young people to be high-spirited, but the Military Order is not a joke.

After all, Zhang Liao was the grandson who was the old man's favorite during his lifetime. When the old man was alive, he took extra care of Lu Bu and supported him.

Lu Bu kept these kindnesses in his heart.

So even if no one mentions it, he should protect the Zhang family.

After the vanguard generals were selected, Lu Bu appointed many accompanying officials.

Among them, the main civil advisers include You Ce, Guo Jia, Feng Ji, Sima Lang, Xu Shu, Yan Jian and others.

As for Chen Gong, he stayed in Chang'an.

Although the current Chang'an city is calm and calm, who can guarantee that there will be no other undercurrents under the calm waves?

It is always beneficial and harmless to keep an extra mind.

Lu Bu was not afraid of anything else, but he was afraid that when the battle ahead was in full swing, a backyard would catch fire and it would be impossible to save him.

Chen Gong has no objection to this, although he also wants to go out with the army, it is equally important to stabilize the rear.

"Your Majesty, even if you go out with peace of mind, if I stay in Chang'an for a day, I will never let the younger generation destroy my master's plan."

Chen Gong said so.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In the days that followed, Lu Bu stayed with his wife and daughter almost every day in the mansion. If the battlefield was not too dangerous, he really wanted to take his wife and children to the battle together.

As for the route of this trip, Lu Bu had already thought about it.

After the soldiers left Hangu, they first occupied Luoyang, then crossed the river into Hanoi, and then went to Hebei.While eliminating Li Jue and Guo Si, Qingzhou and Jizhou were included in the bag, and then Youzhou was swallowed in the north, and Yan and Xu were overlooked in the south.

The grand strategic plan that Lv Bu constructed in his heart was roughly like this.

This trip out of customs, must firmly hold the whole north in your hands!

If there is not enough food and grass, then feed war with war.

Looking at the world, when it comes to the largest territory, Lu Bu is the first to be the first.But in terms of wealth and population, it has to belong to Jizhou and Yangzhou. These two states are operated by the Yuan brothers, one is in the north and the other is in the south.

Yuan Shu, nothing to worry about.

Therefore, the primary goal of Lu Bu's exit this time is Yuan Shao who is entrenched in Jizhou.

As for the crusade against Li Jue and Guo Si, it was just a matter of going along the way.

Three days later, Zhang Liao, the vanguard general, led [-] troops and set off first.

Two days before Zhang Liao's departure, Song Xian and Pan Feng had escorted food and grass out of Chang'an.

If the soldiers and horses are not moving, the grain and grass will go first.

Since ancient times, the truth has never changed.

After Zhang Liao's army left Hangu Pass, they passed through Gucheng in a few days and set up camp at Yangqu, [-] miles west of Luoyang City.

"Pass down my general's order, except for the patrolling soldiers, all the other soldiers will go to bed."

In the big tent of the Chinese army that was set up, Zhang Liao, who was wearing a goose feather armor, took off his helmet, revealing a few strands fluttering, as well as that handsome and bright face.

When the schools in the tent heard it, they all exploded in an instant.

Many people were already unconvinced by letting a boy in his early twenties be the pioneer.Now not only do they go down to camp indiscriminately, but even the orders they give are just as absurd.
