The Strongest Lu Bu: Sweeping the World

Yuan Shu claimed to be the most powerful existence among the vassals. Naturally, there was no shortage of cavalry under his command. It cost a lot of money, and in Yuan Shu's opinion, he did not hesitate.

The hundred-refined weapon purchased from Xuzhou in the past was directly equipped by Yuan Shu among the cavalry.

There are elites in Xuzhou's army, and he cannot fall behind in this respect.

It is a pity for Yuan Shu that he did not get the thousands of hundred refined weapons that he traded with Lu Bu in the end, otherwise, the fighting power of the cavalry would be even stronger.

Under Yuan Shu's command, the cavalry had a high status, and they usually walked in the army with arrogance.

However, the cavalry in the army suffered a lot of losses in the process of fighting the Xuzhou cavalry scouts.

"For half a month, our army's scouts lost more than 200 people, and the news brought back is less and less. If things go on like this, isn't the battlefield dominated by Xuzhou cavalry?" Yuan Shu said dissatisfied.

Hearing the words, the generals in the tent were all silent. In the past half month, they have thought of many ways, but it is extremely difficult to take advantage of the Xuzhou cavalry. They have a more timely understanding of the situation on the battlefield. , so that the Xuzhou Army can respond in a timely manner.

Yuan Shu's army dispatched more cavalry to be active on the battlefield, and the Xuzhou army was not to be outdone. Compared with the same number of confrontations, there is a gap between the cavalry in Yuan Shu's army and the Xuzhou cavalry.

The key point is that the number of cavalry in the Xuzhou army exceeds that of Yuan Shu, which puts Yuan Shu's cavalry in an awkward situation on the battlefield. They cannot fight a direct battle, and they can only turn around and leave when they encounter enemy scouts. If they are not bad luck , can still get away.

"My lord, from the point of view of my subordinates, it is better to fight quickly with the Xuzhou army. The large army has consumed a lot of food and supplies. Sun Ce has already led the army to attack Guangling. This is our army's chance to defeat Lu Bu." Yang Hong said: " Liu Biao in Jingzhou has a rift with the lord, although Liu Biao has agreed to reconcile with the lord, no one can say whether Liu Biao will take advantage of the vacancy, and it is safest to end this war as soon as possible."

Yuan Shu nodded slightly. He was quite satisfied with the current situation. Liu Biao stood still and avoided a lot of trouble. Sun Ce sent troops, so that Lu Bu could only mobilize more troops to defend Guangling. With our own army in check, the outcome of the war is now decided on the battlefield outside Pengcheng.

"Pengcheng is solid, but Lu Bu is arrogantly confronting our army outside the city. As long as Lu Bu is defeated, the matter will be settled." Engaged in Han Yin said.

The generals in the tent are also eager to try. In terms of fighting, there is indeed a big gap between them and the fierce generals of the Xuzhou Army. The initial confrontation also failed time and time again, but this kind of confrontation and contest is not the same as the fighting. are quite different.

Our own side has an absolute advantage in the number of troops, and the current situation is quite favorable to the army. There is no need to give up our own advantages and compete with the Xuzhou army at the general level.

"My lord, the general thinks it's feasible." Ji Ling clasped his fists and said.

The generals in the army expressed their views one after another, and defeating the Xuzhou Army was an exciting thing for them.

"The military spirit is available." Yuan Shu secretly said.

"The enemy's cavalry is active in Runan County. Now that Yu Fuluo is leading the cavalry, there is no trace of the enemy's cavalry. This is a big hidden danger. After the situation in Runan County stabilizes, we can talk about it later." Yuan Shu said, Runan County, he valued it very much.

Yuan Shu could not tolerate Lv Bu's dispatch of cavalry in Runan County.

Yan Xiang said: "The enemy army in Runan County is nothing to worry about. You just need to use a little trick, and the enemy army will definitely be fooled."

Yan Xiang received a signal from Yuan Shu, stepped forward and whispered in his ear.

"Okay, this plan is feasible." Yuan Shu immediately affirmed Yan Xiang's plan.

After the fact that the army was ambushed by the Xuzhou army before, Yuan Shu still paid more attention to this aspect, lest the news leak out.

During this period of time, Han Yin was ordered to talk to many generals in the army, which also made the lieutenant generals panic. He was more careful in doing things at this time. Once Han Yin caught the handle, he would not die. To peel off the skin.

The generals in the army were quite curious when they heard the words, but they didn't dare to ask more questions if Yuan Shu didn't tell the story.

The atmosphere of the Xuzhou army and the Chinese army's big tent was a bit dignified. Yuan Shu's trump card was revealed step by step. The Jiangdong army was not a small threat. The Xiongnu cavalry held Cao Xing in the territory of Runan, which also put Cao Xing in danger. Once the Hun cavalry discovered the traces of Cao Xing and others, Cao Xing must be greeted by a brutal battle.

"Wenhe, the Jingzhou army is standing still, Sun Ce led the army to invade Guangling, and even the Xiongnu cavalry helped Yuan Shu. The situation is extremely unfavorable to our army." Lu Bu said in a slightly heavy tone.

Jia Xu got up and said, "My lord, it is Sun Ce's army that can shake Xuzhou now."

Chapter 289 Jiangdong Army Invades Guangling

Lv Bu snorted coldly, "Back then Sun Ce sent envoys here hypocritically, but I didn't expect that he would still follow Yuan Shu's orders. Let this matter settle with Sun Ce's son slowly."

"Sun Ce's elite soldiers, Guangling prefect Chen Deng, asked for help several times." Jia Xu said.

"What about Wenhe?"

Jia Xu cupped his hands and said, "Defeat Sun Ce first, and then confront Yuan Shu!"

"Guangling is [-] miles away from Pengcheng, so it's not easy to rush to help Guangling." Guo Jia said.

"If this Marquis leads the elite cavalry to Guangling, and the battle is resolved quickly, can Wenhe have confidence in matters in the army?" Lu Bu turned his attention to Jia Xu.

Jia Xu's heart trembled, he knew that after saying such a strategy, Lu Bu would definitely agree. Guangling is the frontier against Sun Ce, and Sun Ce is Yuan Shu's minion, which is well known in the world. The meaning of Sun Ce's attack on Guangling and Yuan Shu's attack on Guangling is the same.

If Guangling is lost, it will affect the stability of Xuzhou.

In order to fight against Yuan Shu, Lu Bu kept mobilizing Xuzhou's soldiers and horses. At this time, Xuzhou's interior was empty. Once Sun Ce defeated Guangling, Xuzhou would be in danger.

"Under such circumstances, if the Marquis does not take action, more officials in Xuzhou will secretly take refuge in Yuan Shu. If this is the case, it will be the most unfavorable for the Marquis." Lu Bu said.

"My lord's words, my subordinates agree, I will do my best to resist Yuan Shu's army." Jia Xu cupped his hands.

Lu Bu stood up and said slowly, "Wenhe guards the Xuzhou army and is responsible for the battle of the army. The generals in the army will obey the orders. If they don't obey, the military law will follow. Zhongkang will stay to help Wenhe."

"Here." Jia Xu cupped his hands.

With Lu Bu's personal guard commander Xu Chu at his side to help, coupled with Jia Xu's prestige in the army, no general would disobey his orders.

"This time, the Marquis is going to Guangling, accompanied by Fengxiao."

"Here." Guo Jia cupped his hands.

The important generals in the army rushed to the central army after receiving Lv Bu's order. They were an important force in the Xuzhou army.

The generals in the army can feel the situation that the Xuzhou army is facing now, and they will not give up on this, and they will follow Lu Bu to make contributions.

Especially the generals who followed Lu Bu at the beginning, their beliefs became more firm.

So what if Yuan Shu is strong, they will defend Xuzhou to the death in the next battle, and make the invading enemy army pay a heavy price.

In the early morning of the next day, the Xuzhou army put a large number of scouts on the battlefield, making the scouts in Yuan Shu's army breathless, and it was difficult for them to even approach the Xuzhou army camp for five miles.

Lu Bu led a total of 2000 personal guards and Xiaoqi Battalion cavalry, and rushed to Guangling.

At this time, the situation in Guangling was in crisis. After Sun Ce entered Jiangdong, he recruited many soldiers. The most elite soldiers under his command were the elite soldiers from Danyang.

Originally, Sun Ce didn't want to take the opportunity to attack Guangling, but Yuan Shu's envoy and Zhou Yu's persuasion made him change his mind. Guangling is a rich place. If he gets Guangling, it will not only strengthen his strength, but also enhance his prestige in Jiangdong.

Since entering Jiangdong, Sun Ce has experienced a lot of battles, and the soldiers under his command have been trained a lot.

Setting foot in Guangling will be of greater help to Sun Ce's future development.

The change in the world situation made Sun Ce see the opportunity coming. Lv Bu was able to occupy Xuzhou with tyrannical force, and the wars between the princes continued. This shows that a new era will come. Who can have more in this situation? The territory will have a place among the princes.

Zhou Yu's plan gave Sun Ce an opportunity.

Whether it is Lu Bu or Yuan Shu, Sun Ce is currently difficult to fight against, but Lu Bu and Yuan Shu will inevitably suffer casualties. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he can gain more benefits.

Guangling is close to Danyang County. After occupying Guangling, Sun Ce can continue to spy on the land of Xuzhou. It is best to get more benefits from Xuzhou when Lu Bu and Yuan Shu are fighting each other as capital.

Yuan Shu wanted to use Sun Ce, but Sun Ce didn't want to use Yuan Shu.

Guangling has an army of 500, of which [-] are navy troops. This was also what Lu Bu promised Chen Deng to create.

Chen Deng was in charge of the [-] sailors, and the army in the city was in charge of the captain Hou Cheng.

Chen Deng is relatively powerful among Xuzhou county officials.

Sun Ce led the attack, which made Chen Deng feel the urgency of the situation. Most of Sun Ce's men were elite soldiers. The Guangling Navy had not been established for a long time. It would be very dangerous to fight against Sun Ce.

"General Hou, is there any news from Pengcheng?" Chen Deng asked.

Hou Cheng shook his head.

"The current situation in Pengcheng is also extremely tense." Chen Deng sighed.

Yuan Shu aggressively invaded the land of Xuzhou, uniting the Yellow Turbans and the Huns, and even Jiangdong Sun Ce dispatched for Yuan Shu, with great momentum.

Hou Cheng said firmly: "As long as Marquis Wen is in the army, it will be difficult for Yuan Shu to break through Xuzhou."

Hou Cheng has absolute confidence in Lv Bu. When Lv Bu led an army away from Dong Zhuo to take control of Xuzhou, the situation was not much worse than it is now. It was Lv Bu who led the lieutenant soldiers to win every battle, which made the princes dare not contempt.

Now that Lu Bu's strength is even stronger, it is no problem to fight against Yuan Shu.

Chen Deng nodded, feeling a little uneasy in his heart. After the Chen family took refuge, Lu Bu treated the Chen family well. From Lu Bu, Chen Deng also felt the arrogance that a monarch should possess.

Even if Lu Bu cooperated with Yuan Shu on the Yanzhou battlefield in the past, I am afraid that Xuzhou will not escape the war. Xuzhou is rich, and once Yuan Shu gets Xuzhou, his strength will be even stronger.

Chen Deng didn't have much affection for Yuan Shu. The members of the Yuan family, who belonged to the fourth generation and the third lord, joined forces with the Yellow Turbans to slaughter Xuzhou's city, which made Chen Deng's affection for Yuan Shu extremely low.

But the current situation forced Chen Deng to think more. The only princes south of the Yellow River who could fight Yuan Shu were Lu Bu and Liu Biao of Jingzhou.

According to Chen Deng's guess, Liu Biao should take some action at this time. Could it be that Liu Biao couldn't see Yuan Shu's ambitions? After Xuzhou and Yanzhou were occupied by Yuan Shu, would Liu Biao be spared?

From this point, it can be seen that Liu Biao is a man without courage.

The Chen family, where should we go?

The Jiangdong army invaded, and the generals and soldiers were panicked. In terms of numbers, Guangling's army was at a disadvantage.

"Prefect Chen, thanks to the Lord's trust, we are here today. Now is the time when Guangling is in critical condition. Even if he lost his life, he would not let Sun Ce get his way." Hou Cheng stared at Chen Deng with burning eyes.

Chapter 290 Sun Ce's Army Has Entered the City

Chen Dengdao: "Don't worry, general, since I have taken refuge in Marquis Wen, I will do my best."

Lu Bu sent Hou to become the captain of Guangling just to contain him, how could Chen Deng fail to understand this.

"Report, Sun Ce's army is only ten miles away from our army."

The news from the scouts made Chen Deng frown. Although the camp of the Guangling Navy is strong, it is still difficult to resist Sun Ce's army. The main reason is that Sun Ce's army has an advantage in numbers, so Chen Deng can only choose to stick to it. .

"Prefect, it's better to withdraw the water army back to Jiangdu, and use Jiangdu city to resist the attack of Jiangdong army." Hou Chengdao.

After a long silence, Chen Deng gritted his teeth and agreed. The construction of the water army camp is extremely difficult. Once it is given up, the materials and money invested in the past will be in vain. It is easy to destroy, but it is very difficult to rebuild.

"Order the navy to withdraw to the city, and burn all the things that cannot be taken away from the navy camp." Chen Deng said slowly.

The Jiangdong army stopped five miles away from the Guangling water army, and scout ships rushed to the Guangling water army camp one after another.

Sun Ce was in the army discussing with the generals how to break through Guangling, when news came that the Guanglingshui military barracks had been burned.

Looking at the smoke and dust rising in the distance, Sun Ce secretly regretted that if the water army camp in Guangling could be captured, it would be an important foundation for the Jiangdong Army to attack Guangling.

"Guangling prefect Chen Deng is also very human," Zhou Yu said.

"Gong Jin, is there a good strategy to attack Guangling?" Sun Ce asked.

Zhou Yu nodded and said, "There are already countermeasures. Now that Chen Deng is burning the Shuijun camp, he obviously intends to stick to Jiangdu and resist our army."

"With Gongjin's plan, why not be able to break through Guangling, you and I, brothers, will work together to achieve a great cause." Sun Ce laughed.

"Brother Bofu should take advantage of the situation and send troops to Jiangdu to push the enemy." Zhou Yu said.

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were called brothers, and even obeyed Zhou Yu's advice in the army. This made the generals under Sun Jian's command quite upset. Zhou Yu was so young. How decent.

But Sun Ce didn't care the slightest bit about all this, but enjoyed it instead.

Sun Ce admired Zhou Yu's ability very much, but those who are capable will be more cautious when choosing a monarch. He and Zhou Yu are considered brothers, so why not tie Zhou Yu tightly to his warship.

With Zhou Yu's help, Sun Ce will have greater confidence.

After the Jiangdong army landed, they approached the city of Jiangdu.

Before Sun Ce entered Jiangdong, the situation in Jiangdong was chaotic, and it was difficult for Jiangdong to pose a threat to Guangling, but now, Sun Ce leads the Jiangdong army to attack Jiangdu.

Such a situation made people in Jiangdu panic.

At this time, there are less than 2000 defenders and navy troops in Jiangdu City, but there are a large number of Jiangdong Army outside the city. It is not easy to defeat Jiangdong Army.

Long before Sun Ce arrived, the aristocratic families in the city had already left. They didn't want to guard the safety of the city together with Chen Deng, and the main thing was to minimize the losses of the family as much as possible.

On the night when the Jiangdong Army came to Jiangdu, a battle broke out in Jiangdu City. The navy general Zu Du led his confidants to open the city gate to welcome the Jiangdong Army into the city.

Zu Du was an important pawn placed by Sun Ce in the Guangling navy. With Zu Du as his internal support, it was easy for Sun Ce to break through Jiangdu. This alone shows Zhou Yu's foresight. After getting Zhou Yu's help, According to Zhou Yu's suggestion, Sun Ce took the opportunity to let Zu Du enter the Guangling navy when Guangling was recruiting the navy.

Zu Du was the younger brother of Zu Mao, a fierce general under Sun Jian's command in the past. He was quite brave, so he was reused after entering the Guangling Navy.

Zu Mao was a fierce general under Sun Jian's command, but he died in order to save Sun Jian. Sun Ce also took good care of his ancestors. Zu Mao's younger brother Zu Du, this time as the Jiangdong Army's internal response to attack Guangling, will also enter after success One of the generals of the Jiangdong Army.

Zu Du's betrayal was completely unexpected. Usually, when training the navy, Zu Du showed extraordinary abilities, and he was even praised by Chen Deng for this.

The Jiangdong army entered the city, shouting and killing loudly.

"Prefect, something is wrong, Zu Du betrayed, opened the city gate, and Sun Ce's army entered the city."

Chen Deng's complexion kept changing. Zu Du, whom he trusted, actually betrayed him, which was a big blow to him.
