In June of the second year of Chuping, Liu Dai, Mu of Yanzhou, Yuan Yi, governor of Shanyang, Cao Cao, governor of Dongjun, Kong Rong, Minister of Beihai, and Liu Bei, Minister of Pingyuan, denounced Lv Bu's move to seize Xuzhou, and clearly opposed Lv Bu's rule in Xuzhou. With the mobilization of soldiers and horses, the intention to attack Xuzhou is clearly revealed.

This was the first violent reaction from the army of princes since Lu Bu occupied Xuzhou.

For a moment, the princes looked sideways.

In fact, the princes also understand in their hearts that the current princes are holding the banner of righteousness, just to make their faces look good, how many people really care about the Han Dynasty, what they want is to get more benefits .

Now that Lu Bu is entrenched in Xuzhou, it will have a great influence on the surrounding princes. Lu Bu was born as a general, not a member of the gentry, and he does not follow common sense in his actions. If such a person is hidden by his side, it will be a big threat in the future .

Moreover, the princes are not sure whether Dong Zhuo's secret order of Lv Bu's presence in Xuzhou is due to Dong Zhuo's secret order. If this is a pawn set up by Dong Zhuo among the princes, the threat will be even greater.

Eliminating Lu Bu as soon as possible has become the common aspiration of the princes. After Lu Bu is eliminated, these hidden dangers will no longer exist.

Yuan Shu, who occupies the lands of Yangzhou and Yuzhou, stood up at this time and justified the name of Lu Bu's governance of Xuzhou. This action made some princes shut up. Anyway, Yuan Shu and Lu Bu have formed an alliance, and they must show something Yes, as to whether Lu Bu can get out of this crisis, it is not up to Yuan Shuneng.

If there is a major change in Xuzhou, Yuan Shu definitely doesn't mind getting involved.

Lu Bu in military uniform appeared in the tent of the Chinese army, and the surrounding princes had already stated their positions. In the past, they only insulted him a lot, but now it is a real battle with swords and guns.

Cao Cao, Governor of Dongjun, Yuan Yi, Governor of Shanyang, Bao Xin, Prime Minister of Jibei, and Liu Dai, Shepherd of Yanzhou, belong to the power of Yanzhou, while Kong Rong, Prime Minister of Beihai, and Liu Bei, Prime Minister of Plains, represent the power of Qingzhou.

It wasn't that Lu Bu and Jia Xu didn't value the power of Qingzhou, but that the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou were rampant. Otherwise, why would Gongsun Zan lead an army to help pacify the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou.

Chapter 57 The World Shakes

No matter who Gongsun Zan is, people in the frontier fortresses call him the White Horse General, and the cavalry under his command are brave and good at fighting, but there is a secret connection between Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shu.

Gongsun Zan's sending troops to help Qingzhou is probably Yuan Shu's secret plan.

On this occasion, Yuan Shao had just occupied Jizhou, and his rule was unstable. After the Yellow Turbans of Qingzhou and Heishan were united, their strength was outstanding. Once Gongsun Zan turned to attack Yuan Shao, the situation would be so critical.

The battle of the princes is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Looking around at the generals in the tent, Lu Bu said slowly: "You must have heard about the fact that the surrounding army is about to invade Xuzhou. You are the generals in the Xuzhou army. At such an important moment, what should you do, my lord?" I believe you have a conclusion in your mind."

Many generals in the tent clenched their fists, and the hatred in their eyes was extremely obvious. In the Xuzhou Army, under Lu Bu's command, they gave them a different feeling, whether they were the former Bingzhou Army or the Xuzhou Army, they felt What I saw was the atmosphere in full swing in the military.

Food, clothing and weapons in the army have been improved. Soldiers work hard, and if they perform well in the assessment, they will even get a promotion in status. These are things that were unimaginable in the past.

Seeing the change in the expression of the general in the army, Lu Bu nodded slightly. If the general in the army does not even have anger and courage when facing a war, how can he do it? This time the war is relatively high. The princes initiated it on their own initiative.

"The final general is willing to lead a troop to Yanzhou to teach old Liu Dai a hard lesson." Zhang Liao came out and said.

Hearing the words, the generals in the tent called for battle one after another. They were not polite to Liu Dai in their words. There was a conflict between Lu Bu's army and Yanzhou army before. Liu Dai wanted to gain benefits from Lu Bu's hands. A large amount of supplies were extorted for Lu Bu.

Lu Bu said: "Old Liu Dai was defeated by Gao Shun, Zhang Liao and other generals before. Instead of repenting, he provoked this general again. This general decided to lead the army to Yanzhou and meet Liu Dai for a while."

"Here." The generals in the tent said in unison, their expressions could not hide their excitement.

In the army, they were indoctrinated with the idea of ​​loyalty and meritorious service. Only by obeying Lu Bu's orders and earning more credits on the battlefield can they achieve greater achievements.

"Zhang Liao, I ordered you to lead [-] infantry and [-] cavalry to be the vanguard of the army, open roads and build bridges when encountering mountains and rivers, and report the situation on the battlefield to the army in a timely manner." Lu Bu said slowly.

"The last general takes orders." Zhang Liao clasped his fists and said.

"Wei Xu is in charge of escorting the grain and grass, and Hao Meng stays in Pengcheng..." After the order after order was issued, all the important generals in the army got the task.

The movement of the Xuzhou army shocked Xuzhou officials. Yanzhou and Qingzhou were dissatisfied with Lu Bu's occupation of Xuzhou, and they had the tendency to send troops. Unexpectedly, at this time, Xuzhou took the initiative to send troops and wanted to attack Yanzhou. How can this not be allowed? They vibrate.

From the perspective of Xuzhou officials, in the face of such a situation, the most important thing for Lu Bu to do is to hold on to the city, repel the offending princes in the future, and take the initiative to fight, which is unexpected.

If the princes came to the city, with the secret tricks of Xuzhou officials, they might be able to welcome the princes' army into the city, but Lu Bu took the initiative to lead the army to attack, and some officials' secret plans fell through.

Lu Bu is not an ordinary person. If you want to get benefits from Lu Bu, it must be as simple as it appears on the surface. Lu Bu can be said to be a special warrior. After he came to Xuzhou, he gained a firm foothold, which actually made Pengcheng prosperous. They have to admit Lu Bu's contribution in this regard.

Xuzhou shook, Yanzhou shook, Qingzhou shook, and the princes shook.

The Pengcheng army set off for Yanzhou on the second day after the order was delivered, and the food and grass needed for the army's expedition were also stepped up.

In the state pastoral mansion, Yan Yu's expression was full of worries. It wasn't long before she and her daughter Lingqi came to Xuzhou, but Xuzhou was about to face war. Although Yan Yu had confidence in Lu Bu's martial arts, the battlefield was ruthless, and the martial arts were strong. Generals may also face threats to their lives

Seeing Yan Yu who was hesitant to speak, Lu Bu laughed and said, "When did Yu'er lose confidence in her husband? It's just a mere Yanzhou Liu Dai. Back then, her husband left Dong Zhuo's old thief. Under such circumstances, it is still possible to defeat the Yanzhou army, let alone now."

"My husband is brave, but swords and guns have no eyes on the battlefield, so my husband should be more careful." Yan Yu said.

Lu Bu nodded, "I will be on the battlefield for many years, so I will pay attention to these aspects. After leaving Pengcheng for her husband, Yu'er should be more careful. When there is nothing to do, try not to go out, so as to prevent the younger generation from taking the opportunity to make trouble."

"I understand." Yan Yu said.

Then Yan Yu gave some worried instructions before leaving Lu Bu's room.

Just a moment after Yan Yugang left, Xiu'er knocked on the door with a bowl of ginseng soup.

Since making ginseng soup for Lu Bu last time, Xiu'er would deliver ginseng soup on time every three days.

"I heard that big brother is about to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy?" Xiu'er asked in a low voice.

Lu Bu said, "It's just a few trivial things, not worth mentioning."

"Brother, don't lie to Xiu'er. The battlefield is dangerous, and Xiu'er knows it. Back then, many people in Luoyang died in the rebellion. If it wasn't for Big Brother, Xiu'er might have suffered too." Talking about this matter, Xiu'er Her expression was a little panicked, as if she had thought of something frightening.

Lu Bu patted Xiu'er's shoulder lightly and said, "Now we are in Xuzhou, and our elder brother is Xuzhou Mu, who dares to make a mistake."

"Xiu'er has heard many things that are not good for eldest brother, so she is worried." Xiu'er said.

Lu Bu said in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter what outsiders think, the key is what kind of person you think your elder brother is. Sometimes it's not a wise move to care too much about outsiders' opinions."

"Big brother said yes, Xiu'er understands." Xiu'er said obediently: "After big brother goes to the battlefield, he must pay attention to his own safety. Xiu'er will pray for big brother in the mansion."

After speaking, Xiu'er blushed and left the room, saying such words to Lu Bu was quite a challenge to the girl's heart.

"Mi Biejia invited the general to a banquet at his residence." Hao Meng stepped forward and said in a low voice.

This time Lu Bu fought Yanzhou, Hao Meng will stay and guard Pengcheng. Although it is a pity that he cannot fight with Lu Bu on the battlefield, it is also important to guard Xuzhou, which shows Lu Bu's trust in him.

Lu Bu nodded, and couldn't help but think of that slightly green and beautiful face. The marriage with the Mi family was just to make her gain a firm foothold in Xuzhou. With the help of the Mi family, Lu Bu's development in Xuzhou can be achieved. get greater security.

Chapter 58 Mizhen Amulet

In fact, this is also the case. The Mi family's wholehearted support has given Lu Bu a lot of help.

The news that Xuzhou is about to send troops to Yanzhou has spread among the dignitaries. They have a lot of discussions about this battle. More people don't have much hope for Lu Bu's victory in this campaign. The territory of Yanzhou It is bigger than Xuzhou, and surpasses Xuzhou in terms of the number of troops.

Lu Bu's army won the battle against the Yanzhou army before, but it does not mean that they will win this confrontation. This time, Lu Bu needs to deal with threats from Qingzhou and even Jizhou.

The princes and alliance leaders stood on the opposite side of Lu Bu and opposed Lu Bu's rule in Xuzhou. It can be expected how delicate Lu Bu's situation in Xuzhou will be.

More officials in Xuzhou were on the sidelines at this time, mainly because Lu Bu had already established considerable power in Xuzhou for more than a year.

Mi Zhu invited Lv Bu to Biejia Mansion at such a time, and Lv Bu would naturally not refuse.

In Biejia's mansion, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang accompanied Lv Bu to a banquet, and it was a joyous experience.

Satisfied with wine and food, all the maids left, Mi Fang got up and said: "My lord, I am a little brave in my humble position, please follow my lord to fight Yanzhou."

Mi Fang's martial arts skills are not weak, and Lu Bu knew this, "Since Zi Fang has the heart, let's follow the general's side."

"Thank you, my lord." Mi Fang cupped her fists and said.

With Lu Bu's order, he will completely transform from Prime Minister Pengcheng to a general in the army.

As a general, Mi Fang yearns for the battlefield. He believes that he can be appointed in the army with his talents.

"Zifang is in the army, and Zizhong is in charge of food and supplies in the rear, so there will be no worries." Lu Bu laughed.

Mi Zhu lowered his voice and said: "My lord, there must be many young people secretly in Xuzhou, so be careful."

"I don't know about this matter. If I win the victory, then these people are nothing to worry about. I am not in Xuzhou. You have to worry about things in the city. If it is urgent, you can discuss it with General Hao Meng. No matter who it is, if they dare to destroy everything in Xuzhou, they will definitely be killed." Lu Bu said in a low voice.

Mi Zhu saluted solemnly: "Thanks to my lord's trust, I will definitely do my best."

At this moment, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang knew that Lu Bu had completely accepted the Mi family and secretly handed over the affairs of Xuzhou to the Mi family. What kind of trust was this, and the Mi family also gained it with their own efforts. The Mi family and Lu Bu The marriage, for the development of Xuzhou, put in a lot of hard work, Mi Fang joined the army, these are the sincerity of the Mi family.

"My sister learned that the lord is about to lead an army to fight, and wants to see the lord." Mi Zhu said with a slightly red face.

Although Mi Zhen and Lu Bu's marriage has been settled, after all, they did not come to the door.

Lu Bu smiled and said, "Yes."

Not long after the two brothers left, there was a burst of fragrance. Against the background of the white dress, Mi Zhen seemed to be a fairy from Nine Heavens.

"I've met Marquis Wen." Mi Zhen greeted Yingying.

Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "If there are any outsiders here, Zhen'er doesn't need to be so polite."

"Xie Wenhou." Mi Zhen stared at Lu Bu with blinking eyes. Although it was not the first time she met Lu Bu, every time she met Lu Bu, she felt her heart throbbing.

After a moment of silence, Mi Zhen said: "Knowing that Marquis Wen is going to fight on the battlefield, the little girl thinks it's hard to stop her, so she can only wish Marquis Wen the victory."

Lu Bu nodded with a smile.

"This is an amulet that my mother asked for in the past. I gave it to Marquis Wen. I hope Marquis Wen will return victorious on the battlefield." After Mi Zhen finished speaking, her face flushed like a ripe apple.

"Zhen'er has a heart. When you have nothing to do, go to the state pastoral mansion to accompany Yu'er." Lu Bu said.

"Little girl obeys." Mi Zhen saluted and drifted away.

There was still a faint warmth and fragrance on the amulet, Lu Bu put the amulet given by Mi Zhen close to his body, and left Biejia Mansion.

The Xuzhou army's battle this time is related to whether Lu Bu can gain a foothold among the princes.

Hao Meng who stayed behind led [-] troops to guard Pengcheng, Hou Cheng led [-] troops to Langya, and the remaining [-] troops all went to Yanzhou. They will test the results of their training during this period on the battlefield of Yanzhou.

War is a great test for soldiers in the army. The lives of soldiers are fragile on the battlefield, and if they are not careful, they will perish.

But for the stability of Xuzhou and the victory of the monarch, they had to do so.

After more than ten thousand troops gathered outside Pengcheng, Lv Bu gave an order, and the army left in mighty force.

The news of the transfer of the Xuzhou army shocked Yanzhou. Although it was said that the Yanzhou army was defeated by Lu Bu before, the Yanzhou side still did not pay enough attention to Lu Bu. In their view, Lu Bu led the Xuzhou army. It is simply impossible to gain benefits from the body, especially when many princes stand up to denounce Lu Bu, it is most likely to bring about Lu Bu's panic and failure.

What Liu Dai didn't expect was that Lu Bu dared to take the initiative to lead an army to invade the land of Yanzhou at this time. What kind of courage is this.

Xuzhou only has more than 5 soldiers and horses, but the Yanzhou Army has more than [-] soldiers, forming an absolute advantage in numbers.

Mainly in the territory of Yanzhou, there are many yellow scarves raging. In order to wipe out these bandits in exile in Yanzhou, the number of the army has increased a lot unconsciously.

When Xuzhou's soldiers and horses were mobilized, Yanzhou's army was also gathering. In just half a month, the army gathered in Changyi reached 4 people. Bao Xin, Prime Minister of Jinbei.

After gathering the army, Liu Dai ordered Bao Xin, Minister of Jibei, to lead an army of [-] troops to Peixian County to intercept Lv Bu's army.

Peixian County is located in the Department of Peiguo, which is close to Pengcheng Kingdom. It is easy to attack Xuzhou from Yanzhou and Yuzhou. Similarly, Xuzhou's army can easily enter Yanzhou.

Pei County originally belonged to the Yuzhou Department, but Liu Dai captured Pei County and Feng County. Not only that, even the Lu State, which belonged to the Pei State Department, was also governed by Liu Dai.

After conquering Pei County, Xuzhou's army was able to drive straight in and attack Changyi, the governor of Yanzhou Prefecture.

The battle between Yanzhou Army and Xuzhou Army is imminent.

At the same time, Qingzhou soldiers and horses began to mobilize.

Under Yuan Shao's secret promise, Liu Bei, Prime Minister of Pingyuan, and Kong Rong, Prime Minister of Beihai, joined forces, with a total of 8000 people, marching towards Langye, with the intention of defeating Langye and threatening Xuzhou in one fell swoop.

Liu Bei was not well-known in the army of the princes before. Although he said that he was a Han family clan relative when he saw people, Liu Bei, a Han clan clan relative, is still worth considering. Besides, at this time, a declining Han clan clan is really A piece of cake.

Chapter 59 Fierce General Zhang Liao

However, the feat of the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang against Lu Bu outside Hulao Pass made him famous among the princes, and let more people know that there is a character like Liu Bei.

Lu Bu's martial arts are so strong that everyone is afraid. If there is no effective means to fight against Lu Bu on the battlefield, what will happen to him.

The Xuzhou army dispatched an attack to face the Yanzhou army, which also became the handle of the Qingzhou side to send troops. In any case, Liu Dai was in charge of Yanzhou and complied with the righteousness. With the attack, more princes will definitely stand on Liu Dai's side.

However, those who become the princes of one side, how can there be simple people, they still have a certain judgment on the situation, what seems to be a contest between Xuzhou Army, Qingzhou Army and Yanzhou Army is actually a contest between Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao, but In such a competition, once it fails, it means that it will withdraw from the stage of hegemony.

Qingzhou dispatched [-] troops, which made people in Xuzhou panic. Zang Ba got the news of the Qingzhou army's dispatch and personally led [-] troops to the counties to resist the Qingzhou army.

In terms of numbers, although the Qingzhou army has a certain advantage, Zang Ba has no fear at all. He has been in Xuzhou for many years, and Zang Ba can be regarded as a man who has experienced many battles. The hundreds of Zang Ba are not Kong Rong's opponents, but the battle on the battlefield tests the general's ability.

The war between the three parties was about to break out. Lu Bu, who had only an army of more than [-], fought against the Qingzhou Army and the Yanzhou Army at the same time, which attracted the attention of the princes.
