"How about the three of them?" Lu Bu asked.

"Marquis Wen, from a humble position, the Mi family intends to rely on Marquis Wen, and the humble position has already hinted at Mi Zhu. If Mi Zhu agrees to the marriage, the Mi family will definitely follow Marquis Wen." Jia Xu said, regarding matters between big families, He has a certain understanding. If he wants these families to follow, he must gain their trust. There is nothing more direct and simple than marriage.

Lu Bu said: "This general is a man with a wife and daughter. If Mi Zhu is interested, let his sister be my concubine."

Taking concubines is a very common thing for officials, but at this time Lu Bu is from the future world after all, and he somewhat rejects such a system, but he also understands Jia Xu's intentions in doing so.

"I understand the humble job." Jia Xu cupped his hands.

"Pengcheng will definitely become the general. Wen He should not hide his clumsiness." Lu Bu said slowly.

"Don't worry about Marquis Wen, he will do his best in his humble position," Jia Xu said.

After Jia Xu discussed with Chen Deng and others, it was already exposed to the public. The officials in the city are likely to attribute Lu Bu's plan this time to him. Once Lu Bu loses his current power, he will not be too serious. Good end.

"What about the army outside the city?" Lu Bu cast a questioning look.

Jia Xu pondered for a moment and said: "Although there are more than ten thousand people in the army outside the city at this time, it is nothing to worry about. The most important thing is Pengcheng. It is difficult for Tao Qian to take advantage of Wenhou's hands, and it will definitely make him prestige in Xuzhou. This is also a great opportunity for Marquis Wen to control Pengcheng."

"Okay, anyone in the city who makes a change can be killed directly without mercy." Lu Bu nodded.

"What I am worried about is that Tao Qian will unite with officials from other states and counties. If this is the case, the situation of Marquis Wen will be in danger. This time Tao Qian leads the army to attack the old thief Dong Zhuo in the city and occupy the righteousness." Jia Xu cupped his hands.

Lv Bu smiled and said, "I thought Wen He would always keep it secret."

Jia Xu's heart moved. From Lu Bu's words, he clearly noticed that Lu Bu had already thought about this aspect.

"I'm humble and dull, and I just thought of it." Jia Xu said calmly.

Lu Budao: "The Eighteenth Route's crusade against Dong Zhuo was very powerful, but it cost a lot of money. Even if they stood up to support Tao Qian at this time, they would not send too many troops. Besides, if Tao Qian was defeated, Is it necessary for them to support a governor of Xuzhou who has no power?"

"Marquis Wen is wise." Jia Xu cupped his hands and said, "After occupying Xuzhou, Marquis Wen can report to the Ming court to take the post of Xuzhou pastor, so it will be justified."

Lu Bu laughed and said, "This general has left Dong Zhuo, the old thief hates this general so much, how could he agree to this easily."

"Marquis Wen's words are bad, Dong Zhuo's character would not agree to this matter, but Li Ru will persuade Dong Zhuo to agree." Jia Xu said slowly: "Dong Zhuo angered the princes of the world in Luoyang, and attracted the allied forces of the princes to attack Luoyang. Although moving the capital to Chang'an will definitely cause panic, at this time, what Dong Zhuo needs to do is to make the emperor's role as prominent as possible in his hands."

"Although the Son of Heaven says he has no power, he is the son of the first emperor after all. It is justified and obedient to be canonized by the Son of Heaven. After Wen Hou occupies Xuzhou, he will definitely attract the dissatisfaction of the princes, thus distracting the princes from Chang'an. It is of great benefit.”

Lu Bu snorted coldly: "If that's the case, why should I ask the court?"

"If Marquis Wen doesn't have a canon from the imperial court, it will definitely make people in Xuzhou unstable. This is the same thing. Even if Marquis Wen doesn't report to the Ming court, will the rest of the princes just sit back and watch Marquis Wen succeed in Xuzhou?" Jia Xu said: "Instead of In this case, it is better to pass the court."

Lu Bu pondered for a moment and said, "Your words do have some truth. After defeating Tao Qian, it's not too late to talk about it."

"Here." Jia Xu cupped his hands.

Jia Xu suddenly realized that although Lu Bu was arrogant, he was still able to listen to some useful suggestions. Perhaps his coldness was just his display.

Lu Bu was even more curious about Jia Xu. This famous strategist at the end of the Han Dynasty really had extraordinary skills. If he could get Jia Xu's best help, why would he not be able to gain a foothold in Xuzhou.

Although Xuzhou is not as large as Yanzhou and Jizhou, Xuzhou is rich and prosperous, and with Xuzhou as the foundation, it may be able to do more when the princes are fighting.

For three consecutive days, no battle broke out outside the city. If it weren't for the occasional scouts from Tao Qian's army outside the city, the officials in Pengcheng even suspected that Tao Qian had retreated.

Tao Qian has been running Xuzhou for many years, and there are many people who secretly support him. However, without the support of the Chen family and the Mi family, it would be difficult for these families to succeed. In just three days, the number of families who were eradicated by the lieutenants reached ten. Such a situation shocked Pengcheng again.

Many officials suddenly realized that they had underestimated Lu Bu. As a military general, Lu Bu actually played tricks with Xuzhou officials. Behind these families, there were officials' support. After the family collapsed, they could survive.

The Chen family and the Mi family seemed to have disappeared, closing their doors and seeing no one else, which made the officials in the city feel a strange atmosphere.

At the second watch, the west gate opened, and Gao Shun led the trapped camp to leave quietly. At the same time, the south gate and north gate opened simultaneously, and the two cavalry teams disappeared into the night.

In three days, the officials in Pengcheng have seen Lu Bu's methods. At this time, even if there are officials who want to help Tao Qian in the dark, it is impossible to stand up at this time. The next step is to rely on Tao Qian himself. If Tao Qian can gain an advantage in the confrontation with Lu Bu, they don't mind helping Tao Qian to become the master of Xuzhou again. If not, they can only rely on Lu Bu to survive.

The reality is sometimes so cruel, without enough strength, even if there is support, so what.

The moon and stars were sparse, and two cavalry teams stopped one mile away from the Xuzhou military camp.

Just half an hour after the three teams left, there was a loud cry of killing on the west side of the Xuzhou military camp.

Gao Shun led the camp and entered the Xuzhou army.

However, the Xuzhou army seemed to have been prepared for this raid, and rushed forward quickly, trying to wipe out the trapped camp.

Chapter 26 Night attack, Xuzhou army defeated

"The governor will send reinforcements soon, these rebels have been fooled, kill them all!" Xuzhou army general Wang Qi shouted excitedly.

When Tao Qian dealt with Lv Bu, he did not dare to slack off in the slightest. He followed the advice of the military counselors and stepped up his defense at night. If Lv Bu dared to lead an army to raid the camp, he would teach Lv Bu a harsh lesson and let the officials in Xuzhou see To Tao Qian has the strength to seize Xuzhou from Lu Bu.

The generals of the Xuzhou army were excited, and the enemy was fooled. It was a good time to make contributions.

Unexpectedly, the trapped camp that came to attack the camp did not show the slightest panic. It seemed that the densely packed Xuzhou army was not worth mentioning in their eyes.

The order after order was issued, and the camp was like a meat grinder on the battlefield. Wherever it passed, the Xuzhou soldiers turned their backs. Gao Shun became more and more calm when dealing with the Xuzhou army that far exceeded his own.

The soldiers in the trapped camp have undergone strict training that is difficult for ordinary soldiers to match. In the trapped camp, Gao Shun is their god. As long as Gao Shun is there, it is absolutely impossible to break through the trapped camp.

A soldier of the Xuzhou Army fell down, which made the soldiers who rushed forward show hesitation. It was obvious that the enemy had been tricked, so why not only the other party did not show panic, but became more and more courageous in the battle. It has exceeded their cognition.

Wang Qi also sensed that something was wrong. The enemy army that appeared on the west side of the camp was stronger than expected. Thinking that a large army would come to support them soon, Wang Qi's doubts disappeared. The Xuzhou army has more than 1 people , There must not be many troops in the city for raids.

The sound of killing on the west side of the camp awakened the generals and soldiers, and Tao Qian immediately ordered the army to rush to the west side for help.

"Sure enough, as Wang Zhizhong expected, Lu Bu intends to use a surprise attack to defeat our army." Tao Qian sneered.

Cao Hongdao, the commander of the personal guards, said: "Lü Bu is just a clown, not worth mentioning. As long as we can defeat Lv Bu tonight, the Xuzhou officials will definitely vote for the governor."

"Hmph, the Mi family and the Chen family are also ungrateful people. How much do I value the two families? At this critical moment, the two families have not made the slightest move." Tao Qian snorted coldly.

"As long as the governor enters Pengcheng, these families will still bow their heads and obey their ears, and the governor's defeat of the world-famous Lu Bu will definitely shake the world." Cao Hong laughed.

Tao Qian showed satisfaction, this result was exactly what he wanted to see.

The allied forces of the feudal lords had already dissociated themselves from morality after the crusade against Dong Zhuo. With Tao Qian's eyesight, he naturally saw this point. A chaotic world was coming, and what he had to do to gain a foothold in the chaotic world was to improve his own strength.

Groups of troops rushed to the west side of the camp to aid the camp, and wiped out the enemy troops who raided the camp, and they would become the victors of this battle. Facing such a temptation, the generals in the army were all inexplicably excited.

Not only defeating Lu Bu, but also the psychological advantage brought by seeing through the enemy's strategy in advance.

The shouts of killing on the west side of the camp were so loud that it even woke up the people of Pengcheng.

At this moment, Lv Bu led a thousand cavalry, leading the way, and entered the south side of the Xuzhou military camp.

Thousands of cavalry came overwhelmingly, the horseshoes rumbled, and the ground trembled slightly.

At this time, most of the Xuzhou Army's attention was on the west side of the camp, and they didn't expect that there was a cavalry lurking beside the Xuzhou Army in the darkness.

The painted halberds flew and the horses neighed. Lu Bu led the cavalry to slaughter the Xuzhou army.

At the same time that Lu Bu led the army to attack, Zhang Liao led the cavalry to launch a fierce offensive from the north side of the Xuzhou army.

The cavalry raids on the north and south sides brought real chaos to the Xuzhou army.

Tao Qian, who was in the big tent of the Chinese army, was planning a strategy to win thousands of miles away. He no longer had the calmness of just now. His own side saw through that Lu Bu would send a large army to make a surprise attack. He did not expect that there would be three groups of troops in the surprise attack.

The battle on the west side attracted most of the Xuzhou army's attention. After receiving the order, many generals were rushing to the camp on the west side. Who would have thought that at this time, there were still hidden enemy troops on the north and south sides.

Tao Qian's complexion was pale, his chest felt tight, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He aged a lot in an instant, and said in a trembling voice: "The traitor Lu Bu has such a plan."

"The governor should take care of his health. Even if our army fails, we can go to Yanzhou or Yuzhou to ask other princes for help. At that time, Lu Bu will still die without a place to bury him." Zhizhong Wang Lang advised.

Tao Qian sighed, "Our army has lost this battle."

"Inspector, there are quite a few soldiers in the army, so it's no problem blocking the enemy's attack." Cao Hong said.

After all, Tao Qian is a person who has experienced storms. After calming down, he immediately began to issue orders. He could not wipe out the enemy's surprise army, but fell into the enemy's calculations. Even if there will be losses in the army, they must be controlled to a certain extent within range.

However, Tao Qian underestimated the impact of the two cavalry teams raging in the Xuzhou army in such a dark night.

The generals of the Xuzhou Army did not expect that Lu Bu's army was still hidden nearby, and the cavalry came rumbling, caught off guard, and in chaos. The soldiers who could see the surroundings clearly in the dark were themselves a minority. Under such circumstances, they The panic in my heart can be imagined.

Soldiers don't know their generals, and generals don't know their soldiers. This is a big taboo on the battlefield. The soldiers in the army lost the slightest measure in panic. Some soldiers even waved their weapons at Pao Ze, and they regarded Pao Ze as an enemy.

As for the Xuzhou army who received Tao Qian's order to stop, they were defeated by the iron cavalry.

The Xuzhou army lacked elite troops to fight against the cavalry. If it hadn't been for Jia Xu's plan, Lu Bu would have defeated Tao Qian's army long before Tao Qian had led the army into the border of Pengcheng.

Cavalry is the king of the battlefield, and their appearance is a lingering nightmare for infantry.

Looking at the chaotic army camp, a smile appeared on the corner of Lu Bu's mouth. After defeating Tao Qian, he will become the master of Pengcheng and even Xuzhou, and then he will have the ability to protect himself in troubled times.

"Follow me and enter the Chinese army and capture the old thief Tao Qian alive." Lu Bu shouted loudly, and more than two hundred cavalrymen followed Lu Bu.

The chaos brought about by the surprise attack of Lu Bu's army was once again beyond Tao Qian's imagination.

"Inspector, the big thing is not good. Lu Bu personally led the cavalry to kill. Our soldiers are hard to stop. Five generals have already died at the hands of Lu Bu." A general staggered into the large tent of the Chinese army and shouted. On the right arm, there is an arrow stuck.

Tao Qian's complexion was pale. Before this surprise attack, the Xuzhou army had prepared to some extent, but he didn't expect it to evolve into the current situation. He sighed: "The general trend is over."

"The final general will protect the governor and leave." Cao Hong said.

Chapter 27 Congratulations to Wenhou for defeating the enemy

The counselors in the tent were also panic-stricken. They were counselors under Tao Qian's tent. If they fell into Lu Bu's hands, one could imagine what would happen. They had heard about how Lu Bu treated the traitors in the city.

Seeing Cao Hong taking Tao Qian away, several counselors in the tent followed up one after another. In such a chaotic situation in the army, if there is no general to lead the soldiers to protect him, they may die among them.

When Lu Bu led the cavalry to kill, Cao Hong had just protected Tao Qian and others to leave.

"Don't leave Tao Qian. Anyone who kills Tao Qian will be rewarded with [-] yuan and be promoted to three ranks." Lu Bu shouted.

The cavalry who followed Lu Bu were inexplicably excited. This kind of reward was too important for the soldiers in the army.

In the shadows, Lu Bu saw a big flag with the word "Tao" flying in front of him, and immediately led the cavalry to come.

"Tao Qian, where are you going?" Lu Bu shouted with all his strength, staring at the team ahead with piercing eyes.

Seeing that the troops in front were in some confusion, Lu Bu rode his horse to kill.

Cao Hong turned pale with shock. Against the backdrop of the fire, Lu Bu, who was holding a painting halberd and sitting on the red rabbit, was invincible.

"Leave a hundred people to stop Lu Bu. They will protect the governor to leave." Cao Hong ordered decisively.

The Chinese army is the soul of an army. Even if Cao Hong protects Tao Qian from the army, it is impossible to discard the Chinese army flag. If a soldier sees the Chinese army flag on the way, he will definitely want to move closer to the Chinese army. In this case , the accompanying team will grow stronger, and then they will be able to protect themselves.

However, Lu Bu's arrival was too fast, disrupting all this.

Wang Lang stepped forward and said eagerly: "General Cao, you can order a group of soldiers to leave from another direction with the banner of the Chinese army. If this is the case, the governor can escape."

Seeing that Tao Qian did not object, Cao Hong immediately followed suit.

At the critical moment, it was Wang Lang's suggestion that saved Tao Qian's life.

What Lu Bu was concerned about was the movement of the flag. The infantry who stepped forward to block them would be opponents of the wolf-like cavalry, but in an instant, they were defeated by the cavalry and fled in all directions.

"I've been fooled." Lu Bu thought to himself when he saw that it was only a general dressed as a school lieutenant who was protecting the banner of the Chinese army and leaving.

"Where's that old thief Tao Qian?" Lu Bu asked in a deep voice.

The lieutenant's body kept trembling, "General, the villain doesn't know."

"Trash." Lu Bu raised his halberd, bringing up a smear of blood, and the captain fell into a pool of blood.

Outside Pengcheng, there were shouts of killing all day long, and the officials in the city were naturally very concerned. They really wanted to know the outcome of this battle. If Tao Qian won the final victory, they would be able to return to Tao Qian's home again. Hug, otherwise, maybe their orders will be controlled by the devil Lu Bu.

Since Lv Bu's arrival, the Governor's Mansion has lost its previous harmonious atmosphere. When facing Lv Bu, they should try their best to be cautious. No one knows what kind of behavior this proud warrior will do next.

The army was defeated like a mountain, Tao Qian fled, and the Chinese army led the cavalry to attack directly for Lv Bu. The Xuzhou army lost the will to resist in the end. Facing the iron cavalry criss-crossing in their own camp, they lost their fighting spirit and fled in all directions. After hearing the cry of the descendant not to kill, he simply put down the weapon in his hand.

Those who followed Tao Qian to defeat Dong Zhuo were all local Xuzhou soldiers. Even Pengcheng fell into the hands of Lv Bu. Even if they escaped from the sky, what could they do? Could it be that they were going to become bandits? No matter what, they were both Han Chinese , even Lu Bu would not embarrass them too much.

That night, the officials in Pengcheng could not sleep peacefully. They knew that a battle was breaking out outside the city that could affect the situation in Xuzhou. However, they did not dare to make any changes at this time. prove.

Jia Xu, who followed Lv Bu to Xuzhou, was the nightmare of Pengcheng officials. They gradually realized that the one who secretly supervised Pengcheng was Jia Xu, who was not surprising.

When the sky was twilight, the battle outside the city had completely ended, and it ended with Lu Bu leading the cavalry to a great victory.

Groups of captives were escorted by soldiers in the army to a temporary camp outside the city, and around them were soldiers in solid clothes.

Tao Qian led the army back to Pengcheng, originally thinking of taking back the control of Pengcheng from Lu Bu, but instead of being successful, he gave Lu Bu more than [-] captives and a large amount of food and supplies.

When the news came, the officials in Pengcheng were shocked. Lu Bu once again proved his bravery and skill with victory. When encountering such generals on the battlefield, we must be more cautious.

Handing over the matter of the captives to Zhang Liao, Lu Bu rode his horse back to the city, soaked in blood, and the mane of the red rabbit horse was also soaked in blood and condensed into pieces. The cavalry who followed Lu Bu into the city would not have blood on their bodies.
