Jun Cheng Mao Jie rushed into the hall of the county mansion with a trot all the way, his face was full of anxiety.

Xun Yu was still reading the letter sent back by Cao Cao at this time. Judging from the information in the letter, the current situation is very good.It is estimated that Xuzhou will become the master's pocket in a short time. As long as it is managed well, the power of Yu, Yan, and Xu will be enough to fight against Lu Bu in Guanzhong.

Mao Jie's shout brought Xun Yu back from his thoughts, he put down his pen and ink, and asked Mao Jie very calmly, "Why are you so flustered?"

According to Xun Yu's understanding, Mao Jie has always been calm and calm, and has never been as reckless as he is today.

Mao Jie took a breath, and reported truthfully: "I just received news that Chenliu County was captured by Lu Bu!"

Even though he was mentally prepared, when Mao Jie told the news, Xun Yu was still shocked.

How can it be!

There are more than [-] defenders in Chenliu County. Even if Lu Bu attacked by force, they could at least hold out for a few days. How could it be possible that they were captured by Lu Bu's army so quickly?

During this period, the county guard Chen Mou didn't give him any feedback, and even the county magistrates in the county didn't give him any feedback.

Could it be that these people are all blind and deaf?

Xun Yu's mind turned sharply, and it was almost impossible for Lu Bu to recruit Chen Mou.

At this time, Cheng Yu also came to the hall, holding a roll of bamboo slips in his hand, and his face was also very ugly.

"Lingjun, Baili, the county magistrate of Ying County, hastened to report that Zang Ba, the leader of the Taishan bandits, led the bandits to raid Taishan County yesterday. After taking Taishan County, they captured Jibei overnight!"

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

Tarzan thief?

Hearing this news, Xun Yu looked slightly surprised.

Mount Tai bandits are a group of bandits entrenched around Mount Tai, with a number of over ten thousand, quite similar to the Black Mountain bandits in the north.Although they are not as numerous as the Black Bandits in terms of numbers, their combat effectiveness is particularly strong.

The head of the bandit is Zang Ba, who is brave in force and good at wielding a bright silver and white winged boring. He is known for his vision and strategy.The four generals under his command, Chang Xi, Sun Guan, Wu Dun, and Yin Li, are also quite capable figures.

Previously, Cao Cao had sent Xu Xi and Mao Hui as generals to lead troops to attack the bandits in Mount Tai, but they failed to take them down. Instead, they also took refuge in Zang Ba.

Later, Cao Cao repeatedly sent people to recruit, but failed.

Fortunately, Zang Ba didn't make trouble, he only wandered around Mount Tai, and didn't plunder the people. He and Cao Cao in Yanzhou have always been well watered.

But why did they suddenly attack Taishan County?

In all likelihood, it is inseparable from Lu Bu.

Xun Yu cleared his mind and quickly connected the two together.

"Lingjun, what should we do?" Mao Jie asked anxiously.

"Don't panic, it's just a few cities, we still have the power to fight." Xun Yu comforted Mao Jie very calmly.

Could it be that he is not in a hurry?

No, Xun Yu is more anxious than anyone else.

It's just that he knows very well that as a qualified commander, the more critical the situation is, the less he can lose his footing.

"Zhongde, send a letter to tell your lord quickly. Just say that Lu Bu has already started to encroach on Yanzhou, but there is no need to worry. With Yanzhou's soldiers and horses, we can last for a long time, but at the same time, we have to tell my lord. Let him speed up the conquest of Xuzhou. Otherwise, all previous efforts will be in vain."

Cheng Yu nodded and took the order to leave.

Later, Xun Yu gave another order: "Come here, go and invite the three generals Yu Jin, Cao Ren, and Li Tong."

Not long after, the three of Yu Jin came to the lobby for the discussion.

After cupping his fists in salute, Cao Ren took the initiative to ask, "Xun Lingjun, why are you summoning us?"

Xun Yu told the three of them about it.

These three generals were all calm-tempered generals. After hearing this, they frowned and began to think about countermeasures.

"I don't know what arrangement Xun Lingjun has?" Among the three, Li Tong, who was the most ordinary-looking, asked with his fists clasped.

Cao Ren and Yu Jin also looked over. This man, whom the lord called "My Son's House", was well-known and resourceful, and they admired him on weekdays.

Xun Yu unfolded the map on the wall and moved his fingers on the map: "Lv Bu has captured Chenliu, and his next plan must be Dongjun or Jiyin. These two counties are the lifeblood of Yanzhou, so there is no room for loss. Otherwise, Yanzhou is in danger! Therefore, I would like to invite Generals Cao Ren and General Yu Jin to lead the troops and go to guard it."

He Kui, governor of Dongjun County, and Xu Yi, governor of Jiyin County, both have good ability to govern the county and are also Cao Cao's confidantes.Although there were tens of thousands of troops stationed in the county, Xun Yu was still worried that the two of them would not be able to withstand Lu Bu's army, so he wanted to send additional troops to reinforce them.

"Lingjun Yuanmou, the two of us will set off immediately and rush to Dongjun and Jiyin." Cao Ren and Yu Jin clasped their fists, resolutely.Yanzhou is the world they conquered together with Cao Cao, and outsiders will never be allowed to get involved.

"That's it, the two generals are here to help."

Xun Yu was very pleased.

After Cao Ren and Yu Jin left, Li Tong was the only one left in the hall.

Throughout Cao Cao's command, there are countless brilliant generals, but not many who are thoughtful and have both civil and military skills.

Li Tong remained silent and waited for the next sentence.

Xun Yu would definitely not call himself here for no reason, he must have something important to order.

"General Li Tong."

Xun Yu shouted.

Li Tong immediately cupped his fists and waited for Xun Yu's order.

"Are you familiar with Mount Tai?" Xun Yu asked him.

Li Tong nodded. He used to be the captain of Taishan County, and he was very familiar with the terrain and environment there.

"Now that Zang Ba has taken Taishan County and the counties in Jibei, I want you to lead an attack to repel the bandits. Are you willing to go?"

Xun Yu looked at Li Tong. Among the generals he can mobilize now, only Li Tong is the most suitable candidate.

"The final general will live up to your entrustment!" Li Tong responded loudly.

Xun Yu nodded, and after Li Tong went down to prepare, he got up and walked out of the hall.

The weather was fine and the autumn air was crisp, but Xun Yu's mood was clouded.

In Yanzhou, which had been quiet for so long, as soon as Lu Bu made a move, he directly poked a big hole in the sky of Yanzhou.

Chenliu County, the garrison camp outside the city.

In front of the war sand table built with mud and sand, Lu Bu in military uniform stood in the middle, surrounded by his advisers and confidant generals on the left and right sides.
