The Strongest Lu Bu: Sweeping the World

This is also an important reason why Zang Ba did not show any other performance after he joined Lv Bu. What Zang Ba saw was an opportunity to make contributions by following Lv Bu.

Zang Ba has strong martial arts, and he can be appreciated by Lu Bu in the army, so it is very possible to do something in the future.

Even if the enemy's actions are rampant, after Lu Bu leads the Xuzhou army to victory in the war, the end of the enemy's army will come.

As for whether Lu Bu will defeat the enemy in the war, Zang Ba has sufficient confidence. In the past, when facing a war, has Lu Bu failed? Even if the enemy is strong, how much influence can it have on Lu Bu? Woolen cloth.

But seeing Zhang Fei's order, five hundred cavalrymen lined up and started shouting outside the city.

Scolding is one of the means to lure the enemy to fight, and shouting can often play a big role. If the defenders don't stand out, it will inevitably make the lieutenants worry in their hearts. When the enemy's strength After being too strong, the threat to the city where it is located is great.

What the lieutenant general needs to do at this time is to appease the lieutenant and let the lieutenant see the hope of victory and the vulnerability of the enemy.

Zang Ba didn't do that, but quietly watched the enemy's shouts on the city.

The reason for the rampant performance of the enemy army at such times is that when the enemy army faces the counties, they want to attack, but they are not willing to make the army officers and soldiers pay a greater price in the process of attacking. The more so, it shows that The eagerness of the enemy.

As a general, when considering things, you must be more comprehensive, and you can't help but do other things because of the enemy's provocation.

Zang Ba is unique in being able to appoint Lu Bu to guard Langye, otherwise, when Tao Qian was in charge of Xuzhou, Zang Ba would not have such power in Langye.

When thinking about things, Zang Ba is relatively comprehensive. No matter how much the enemy yells, the fighting power of the Xuzhou army will shock the enemy. The time has come for the lieutenant soldiers to show their powerful combat effectiveness in the war, and the enemy will also pay the price for their previous yelling.

"General, the wind on the top of the city is relatively strong, and the last general will guard it on behalf of the general." Wu Dun stepped forward and said.

Zang Ba laughed and said: "Listening to the enemy's yelling and cursing, it's actually pretty good. If I were in command of the army, I wouldn't take such a boring way to attack the city directly. It's not better than anything else."

Zang Ba's words were echoed by the generals in the army. In fact, even if they had a lot of anger at this time, they could not fight without Zang Ba's order. Control is extremely strict.

Especially after taking refuge in Lv Bu, although the number of soldiers under Zang Ba's command has not increased, but in terms of training, it has increased a lot, and even the requirements for the soldiers in the army are extremely strict.

Lu Bu has a generous attitude towards the soldiers in the army. This attitude makes the soldiers in the army do their best when they do things, especially the performance during training, which is not possessed by the soldiers under the command of other princes. .

It is precisely because of this that Lu Bu has more confidence when fighting against other princes. Even if the enemy's rampant performance, it is difficult for his own side to have an impact.

"General, when the enemy army attacks the city, you must make the enemy look good. Zhang Fei dares to be so arrogant. If Marquis Wen comes, he will definitely make Zhang Fei flee." Wu Dun said.

Zang Ba said: "Marquis Wen is brave and good at fighting, how could Zhang Fei be able to stop him?"

When mentioning Lu Bu, Zang Ba also had a lot of emotion. After taking refuge in Lu Bu, Zang Ba also had a lot of pressure, mainly because of Lu Bu's bad reputation.

However, Zang Ba was originally a bandit in the eyes of Xuzhou officials. Now, it is a good thing to be able to rely on Lu Bu and obtain a formal official position.

Besides the matter of reputation, Zang Ba will not care more about it. If he takes refuge in someone worth following, Zang Ba will do his best to help Lu Bu, make Langye more stable, and make it difficult for the enemy's invasion to take effect.

"Strengthen the control of each city gate, and make sure not to give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it." Zang Ba ordered.

"Here." The lieutenant generals said in unison.

Even before this battle started, Zang Ba had already informed the soldiers in the army of the method of confronting the enemy. The purpose of this battle was to defend against the enemy's attack and preserve the counties. He was more presumptuous when attacking Langye.

If the stability of the counties cannot be guaranteed, Xuzhou will fall into the flames of war, which is the cruelest thing for Xuzhou.

In order to develop Xuzhou, Lu Bu has made a lot of efforts, and the changes in the army can clearly see the problems in this regard.

If Langye's army could not do anything when fighting against the Qingzhou army, and if the enemy broke through the city, it would be the biggest shock to Xuzhou.

As for the Qingzhou army wanting to drive straight into Xuzhou, it depends on whether Liu Bei and Kong Rong have the courage.

The counties are important places, as long as the defense of the counties is successful, the enemy will not dare to act rashly, otherwise, Zang Ba only needs to lead the soldiers to cut off the enemy's food and grass, and the enemy's attack will lose its due effect.

Facing the enemy army head-on, it is conceivable what kind of combat power the Xuzhou army can explode with the same number.

The previous wars have fully demonstrated the powerful combat effectiveness of the Xuzhou Army. Even though the situation on the battlefield has a bad side for the Xuzhou Army, the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army are still crazy when dealing with wars.

It is precisely by virtue of this way of fighting that the Xuzhou army has a better reputation among the princes, and it has no more fear in the face of soldiers and horses under the command of other princes.

The large number of Qingzhou army is good. As Zang Ba said, as long as the enemy army attacks the city, it can gradually consume the strength of the enemy army, and even reduce the number of enemy troops sharply, so that the enemy army's plan to attack Xuzhou can be completely eliminated shattered.

After yelling and cursing for a long time, but there was still no result, Zhang Fei ordered the cavalry under his command to withdraw and return to the camp.

Why is Zhang Fei not depressed? The yelling and scolding of his own soldiers is so serious, but Zang Ba is the same as if he didn't hear it. He didn't pay attention to the yelling and scolding of his own soldiers. It is not an easy task to break through the city where it is located.

Chapter 868 The Way to Break through the Counties

After returning to the army and explaining the incident to Liu Bei, Liu Bei comforted him and said, "Yide, that Zang Ba was able to appoint Lu Bu to guard Langye, he must have a certain ability. Although his soldiers and horses are only three thousand, When defending the city, it can still cause great damage to our army."

"Brother, Zang Ba is a coward." Zhang Fei said.

Liu Bei smiled and said: "Yide don't need to be discouraged, brother has already found a way to break through the counties."

Zhang Fei was overjoyed when he heard the words, breaking through the counties would make this war smoother.

The counties are obstacles on the way of the Qingzhou army's attack. It is impossible to ignore the existence of the counties. The best way is to break the counties and make the defenders of the counties useless. In this way, when the army is attacking, there will be no more worries.

Besides, the troops deployed by the Xuzhou Army in Langya were [-] soldiers under the command of Zang Ba. As long as Zang Ba was defeated, the rest of the war would be easier.

Xuzhou is rich in materials, and the materials obtained after breaking through the counties can ease the needs of the army to fight, and even get excellent weapons and armor from the Xuzhou army.

Liu Bei has a lot of covetousness for the equipment of the Xuzhou Army. Although Liu Bei's army now has hundreds of refined weapons, more of them are equipped in the hands of generals. As for the ordinary soldiers, if they want to get the hundred refined weapons, It is simply impossible.

Since Zhang Fei escaped from Xuzhou, the relationship between Liu Bei and Lu Bu has deteriorated a lot. Even Liu Bei was directly blacklisted for Lu Bu. It is impossible to trade with Xuzhou.

Faced with this situation, Liu Bei had no better way, but to seek assistance from other princes.

Yuan Shu wooed Liu Bei and let Liu Bei attack Xuzhou, it must be to give certain benefits.

In the face of these benefits, Liu Bei could not refuse. Besides, Liu Bei himself had a grudge with Lu Bu. If Xuzhou could be broken, in Liu Bei's view, it would be something to be happy about.

Lu Bu, who is in charge of Xuzhou, poses a great threat to the princes. Only by eradicating hidden dangers like Lu Bu as soon as possible can the princes be more harmonious and stable.

If Lu Bu knew the thoughts of these princes, I don't know what kind of feelings he would have.

When he was strong at the beginning, the princes had a lot of compliments on him, and even did not hesitate to face in order to deal with Xuzhou.

In fact, it is normal for such a thing to happen to the princes.

In many cases, in order to develop their own strength, the princes will not give up easily as long as they can use the means. If they get benefits, they will be more helpful to the princes. As for the process of , How shameless the means used, it seems that it is not that important.

When the princes develop their strength, they have to encounter various difficulties. When overcoming these difficulties, it is far from enough to rely on obvious means. Use other means to solve the problem well. Resolution, in the eyes of the princes, is an acceptable thing in itself.

The same is true for fighting against Lu Bu and making friends with Lu Bu. When Lu Bu is so powerful that the princes can only make friends with each other, they will send envoys to Xuzhou. Have friendship.

As for when Lu Bu was at a disadvantage, they would stand up and speak ill of Lu Bu, making Lu Bu's reputation even louder.

Lu Bu has already experienced such things, so Lu Bu will not care more about reputation. What he pursues is the victory of the war, and the enemy army pays a heavy price for their actions in the war.

If Lu Bu's existence is ignored during the war, it will be the most dangerous thing for the enemy.

Lv Bu is not only a brave and skilled general, but also the cavalry in command, and is famous all over the world.

"Brother, is there any way to directly break through the counties?" Zhang Fei was in a hurry.

At this time, only Liu Guanzhang, Kong Rong and Kong Rong's confidant generals were in the big account of the Chinese army. Otherwise, Liu Bei would not have mentioned such an important matter.

Liu Bei said with a smile: "After Lv Bu took charge of Xuzhou, he acted against the law and the people complained. Naturally, such rebels will not lack insightful people to resist. My brother has already contacted the Zhu family in the city. After three days, the Zhu family's People will open the city gates and welcome the army to enter the city, even if Zang Ba has [-] soldiers under his command to prevent our army from entering the city, it will be impossible."

Speaking of this, Liu Bei's words are full of confidence. If he can successfully break through the counties this time, it will be a great achievement. Moreover, if the counties are broken through, the army will be able to go straight to Huanglong and take Lu Bu's army in Xuzhou directly. Domination is shaken.

At that time, it will be impossible for Lv Bu to do more in the fight against Yuan Shu just by relying on his soldiers and horses.

When fighting against Lu Bu, one cannot relax in the slightest. The past wars have well demonstrated how much harm will be caused to the enemy when Lu Bu leads the lieutenant soldiers on the battlefield. In the past, Yuan Shu sent troops to attack Lu Bu. Being defeated by Lu Bu, such a failure caused Yuan Shu a heavy loss.

What followed was the development of Lu Bu in Yanzhou and Xuzhou. If Lu Bu's momentum continues, it will be a disaster for Liu Bei. Who made Liu Bei attack Xuzhou when Lu Bu occupied Xuzhou before? Woolen cloth.

Lu Bu's reputation among the princes is based on the victory of the war. As for occupying the plain at this time, in Lu Bu's eyes, he is just a weak existence. It is impossible to pose more threats to Lu Bu .

Fortunately, this time Yuan Shu's attack on Xuzhou was so powerful that even Liu Biao, a well-known prince among the princes, was included in the alliance. It is foreseeable that such an attack will have a great impact on the stability of Xuzhou.

As long as Lu Bu can be defeated, the rest will be simple. At that time, the princes of all parties can distribute the benefits after the war is over.

As the first to defeat Lu Bu's army, Liu Bei gained not only fame, but also benefits.

"The reason why we are able to connect with the Zhu family is all thanks to the Beihai prefect." Liu Bei turned his attention to Kong Rong.

Kong Rong has a great reputation among literati. Although Kong Rong is far behind Liu Bei and others in training soldiers and horses, Kong Rong can do a lot by virtue of the name of the Kong family. Unimaginable things for the princes.

Chapter 869 Xuande Needs No Sadness

It was Kong Rong's suggestion to join forces with the Zhu family this time.

The Zhu family is a well-known family in various counties. Although it is impossible for the Zhu family to fight against Lu Bu, as long as the Zhu family makes a betrayal at a critical moment, it can bring death to the defenders. The threat caused the defenders to pay a heavy price in this confrontation.

The progress of the war has a great impact on the soldiers of the army. If they can break through the enemy's city at a faster speed, the soldiers of the army will have high morale when they face the enemy.

After an army has high morale, it will be easier to face the war, and even inflict heavy damage on the enemy.

When Liu Bei was fighting against the Xuzhou army, what he had to do was to be cautious. Liu Bei, who had dealt with the Xuzhou army, understood that when Lu Bu was leading the army in battle, he couldn't figure it out with ordinary reasoning. What a crisis, under such circumstances, Lu Bu defeated the invading enemy army and stabilized Xuzhou.

If Yuan Shu sent troops to attack Lv Bu instead of supporting Lv Bu at the beginning, Lv Bu would definitely be destroyed. Therefore, Yuan Shu also has a lot of credit for Lv Bu being able to have the current situation, but Yuan Shu has a resounding reputation among the princes. Strength, other princes dare not make a fuss about this matter.

However, in secret, the princes must have a lot of discussions about this matter. It can be said that Yuan Shu is shooting himself in the foot. When Lv Bu was weak, if he gave Lv Bu a fatal blow, he would not only get benefits, but also Can eradicate such a big hidden danger.

However, Yuan Shu had other thoughts at the time, wanting to let Lu Bu grow up and restrain the forces supporting Yuan Shao, which led to the current situation.

However, Yuan Shu's status among the vassals is very high in itself, and Yuan Shu is a child of the Yuan family. When the vassals rose up, he received a lot of support. The reputation among the princes became even louder.

At present, it is because of Yuan Shu that the princes of all parties are attacking Xuzhou and Yanzhou, and the most threatened one is Xuzhou under the control of Lu Bu.

The reason why Lu Bu was able to achieve his current achievements among the princes has a great relationship with Xuzhou. As long as Xuzhou is breached, it is simply impossible to stop the princes from attacking only by relying on Yanzhou.

Since the princes have launched this war, they will not stop dying, and will not stop because of Lu Bu's weakness.

On the stage where the princes are fighting, there is no such thing as mercy. As long as the enemy can be wiped out, it is the greatest help to the improvement of one's own strength. Complete failure in the battle.

After a complete victory, the princes can feel more at ease, and when developing their own strength, they can be more at ease.

Kong Rong laughed and said, "It is our duty to defeat the rebels. What Lu Bu has done has aroused the anger of scholars. If Lu Bu is eradicated, I will feel more at ease."

"The great Han has been passed down for hundreds of years, but now it has gone through many wars. When will the real stability be restored?" Kong Rong couldn't help sighing.

The strength of the great Han is strong, but these years, wars have continued, and even traitors like Dong Zhuo have held the emperor hostage, causing princes to rise up everywhere, support their own self-respect, and refuse to obey the orders of the court. If this situation continues, it will be difficult for the great Han The impact on stability is the most serious.

Lu Bu is a vassal, and when he does things, he doesn't take into account so many things, which poses the greatest threat to the stability of the great man. Therefore, among the literati, Lu Bu has always been the target of verbal criticism. Contribution, just relying on such a contribution, it is simply impossible to improve Lu Bu's reputation.

Besides, the paper made by Lu Bu has earned a lot of money from scholars. It is almost impossible to get the favor of scholars.

However, as Lu Bu's strength became stronger, more literati would inevitably join him. When they saw hope in Lu Bu, it was reasonable to have such a move.

After all, not all literati have a good way out. When they see hope from the princes, they will go to seek refuge. If they can be used by the princes and become officials under the princes, they will do something. It's even simpler.

While scolding Lv Bu, the literati had to admit that the recruitment order was very tempting for them. It is a good example that many literati went to Xuzhou to seek refuge with Lv Bu.

Among these literati, there is no shortage of talented people.

If Lu Bu continues to develop like this, it will have a great influence on the surrounding princes. If Lu Bu's influence in this aspect can be eliminated as much as possible, it will be a blessing for the surrounding princes.

Liu Bei nodded and said: "I am a clan member of the Han family, but I can only watch the rebellious officials and thieves act recklessly. Every time I think of this, I feel sad."

Speaking of this, Liu Bei burst into tears. When the Han Dynasty was strong, even the aristocratic and powerful families would not dare to compete with the royal family. As for disobeying the imperial court's order, such a thing is impossible to happen, but now, The situation is different. When the princes have enough strength in their hands, they have the capital to disobey the imperial court's orders, and they can even dismiss the imperial court's orders.

When appointing officials, it is only necessary to obtain the consent of the imperial court. As for the imperial court wanting to install officials under their command, it is extremely difficult.

If this situation continues to evolve, how many of the princes will take into account the face of the court? As for saying allegiance to the Han Dynasty, it has become empty talk.

Lv Bu is a powerful existence among the princes, and he was Dong Zhuo's minion before. If he can defeat the powerful Lv Bu, it will definitely be a big shock to other princes, and let these princes understand that in the Han Dynasty, there is still a lot of power. There are loyal ministers and righteous men.

"Xuande need not be sad. Now is the critical time to fight against the Xuzhou army. It is imminent to break through the counties. If the enemy army is aware of our army's actions, more accidents will inevitably happen. In this battle During the confrontation, you must make proper preparations." Kong Rong said: "I don't know much about military affairs, so Xuande will be in charge."

Chapter 870 The Biggest Reliance

As for the affairs in the army, Kong Rong actually didn't care more about it. Although the number of soldiers and horses on both sides were equal, there was a big gap between the soldiers and horses of Beihai and those under Liu Bei's command.

Kong Rong saw this and let Liu Bei be in charge of the military affairs. Liu Bei is a clan member of the Han family. At such a critical moment for the big man, he must have a lot of hatred for Lu Bu. When fighting against Lu Bu, he would not There is the slightest soft-heartedness.

Moreover, under Liu Bei's tent, there are fierce generals such as Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, which can be of great use when fighting against the enemy.

"Thanks to Beihai prefect's attention, Bei will definitely do his best." Liu Bei cupped his hands.

In fact, Liu Bei also has ambitions. He wants to restore the family to its former glory and become a legitimate Han family clan, not a declining Han clan clan. With the name of the Han clan clan, he can indeed get a lot of money advantage.
