The Strongest Lu Bu: Sweeping the World

Ji Ling didn't have the face to ask the soldiers in the army to come forward to clean the battlefield, because cleaning the battlefield has always been the power of the victor. Although the Yangzhou army has an advantage in numbers, Ji Ling is not that thick-skinned.

The Yangzhou army retreated, and the Xuzhou army burst into bursts of cheers. They defeated the Yangzhou army with fewer people, so that the Yangzhou army could only retreat in despair.

"Zhongkang is so brave that no one in the Yangzhou army can stop him." Lu Bu praised without hesitation, "In the future, when the generals of the Yangzhou army see Zhongkang fighting, they will definitely be cautious."

"It's the job of the last general to kill the enemy." Xu Chu clasped his fists and said.

Although the time under Lu Bu's command was not long, Xu Chu could feel Lu Bu's importance. Moreover, Lu Bu had the most elite army under his command. When they responded to the war, their combat effectiveness was not comparable to that of ordinary teams. For any general, there will be a great attraction.

From Cao Cao's tent to seek refuge with Lu Bu, although Lu Bu used a small trick, Xu Chu did not regret it afterwards.

Commanding the cavalry in battle, Xu Chu felt an unprecedented joy, especially the cavalry roaring on the battlefield, invincible among the enemy troops. For a general, this is an indescribable enjoyment.

"How about the guards under the Marquis' tent?" Lu Bu asked with a smile.

Xu Chu said without hesitation, "It's unstoppable."

Lu Bu's personal guards are formed by selecting the best cavalry from the Xuzhou Army. They also use Hundred-Refined Weapons. Such treatment is rare in the world. Hundred-refined Weapons are rare in themselves. However, he was able to equip the cavalry on a large scale. With such courage, the other princes were separated.

"My lord, the weapon in the guard's hand is called a scimitar, and it is really sharp," Xu Chu said.

Lu Bu said complacently, "Of course, this weapon was designed by the Marquis himself, and it is specially used for cavalry charges."

"My lord's ability will be admired in the end." Xu Chu clasped his fists and said.

Lu Bu laughed and said, "Zhongkang's commanding cavalry is not weak in combat, but now the Marquis's personal guards are lacking a commander. Waiting for this matter, I will choose a commander from among the cavalry generals."

"Thank you, my lord." Xu Chu said. With Lu Bu's words, it means that he has the opportunity to become the commander of the personal guard. This is a rare opportunity for a general. Who doesn't want to be a master? With such formidable strength, there will be no more obstacles in the future to roam the battlefield and make contributions.

The Xuzhou army rejoiced. The soldiers of the Xuzhou army were not afraid of war. If the war could be avoided, they would still be happy to see it. Ji Ling led an army of [-] men and came here aggressively, which still had a considerable impact on the soldiers of the Xuzhou army. The most obvious Nothing is better than the officials in the city.

Although Dongjun was under the rule of Cao Cao before, it does not mean that the officials of Dongjun will follow Cao Cao to leave Dongjun. Cao Cao has become a bereaved dog. Unless it is an official who is loyal to Cao Cao, other officials will consider it carefully.

How did their family develop after leaving Dongjun.

Lu Bu's entry into East County was beyond the expectation of the officials of East County. In their view, Yuan Shu was most likely to take over East County. After all, Yuan Shu's army had a numerical advantage. It is already very good to defend the city currently occupied, but it is not easy to capture Dongjun from Yuan Shu's nose.

However, the real situation is so wonderful. Dongjun surrendered to Lu Bu for Cao Cao, and Ji Ling led the army to fight back for Lu Bu. Dongjun just fell into Lu Bu's control.

Only then did the Dongjun family realize that perhaps they had really underestimated Lu Bu before. With such methods, would they be reckless in the eyes of outsiders? Even if a prince sees a general like Lu Bu, he will It's a headache.

Cao Xing was left to guard Dongjun with [-] soldiers, and Lu Bu led the cavalry to return to Changyi. The stability of Yanzhou must require a lot of hard work. Not so anymore.

Chapter 190 The Messenger Comes Again

The news that Dongjun was occupied by Lu Bu quickly spread in Yanzhou.

Yuan Shu was furious, and his anger was ignited by Lu Bu again. The previous incident made Yuan Shu dissatisfied with Lu Bu. He didn't expect that Lu Bu would tamper with Dongjun again. He had a feeling of being fooled.

With the Yangzhou army approaching the city, it must be difficult for Lu Bu to mobilize more troops to attack Dongjun. After the Yangzhou army, which Lu Bu fooled with [-] soldiers and horses, retreated, he led a large army to raid Dongjun and captured Dongjun.

Is it possible to send an envoy to reprimand Lu Bu at this time?If reprimands are useful, what use are the soldiers in the army? Now that the war is raging, relying on the strength of the army and the means of the monarch, Lu Bu's behavior is inferior, but he has obtained many benefits.

Putting the same thing on Yuan Shu, I am afraid that Yuan Shu would not refuse. The real benefits are the most practical.

"My lord, that Lu Bu is too arrogant. He clearly agreed to the lord's affairs, but sat down on such a shameless thing. He obviously didn't take the lord seriously." General Liang Gang said angrily.

Yuan Shu snorted coldly, "Lu Bu is a villain who repeats himself."

Maybe it was because he was angry before, but at this time Yuan Shu was more sober, especially after the news of the cavalry confrontation between the two armies outside Puyang City, Yuan Shu had to think seriously. Thousands of Yangzhou cavalry were fighting against seven hundred Xuzhou cavalry When they were cavalry, they ended up in a disastrous defeat, and they didn't even clean up the battlefield. This was a humiliation for the Yangzhou Army.

Yuan Shu has high hopes for the cavalry in the army. The horses are selected from the best. The generals who train the cavalry have strict requirements. There are even Xuzhou cavalry in the army to help with training. Why is there such a big gap compared with the Xuzhou cavalry?

"My lord, the soldiers of our army have no fighting spirit at present. If we raise troops to confront the Xuzhou army, I'm afraid there will be more problems." Yang Hong said.

Yuan Shu said in a deep voice: "Our army has lost a lot of troops in this battle against Yanzhou. We should focus on stabilizing the city. The soldiers in the army will train hard and sweep the enemy army in the future."

The reason why Yuan Shu was so calm had a lot to do with Yang Hong. After the news came, Yuan Shu was going to order an attack on Changyi immediately. He was persuaded by Yang Hong's good words. At the same time, it also made Yuan Shu realize the strength of the Xuzhou cavalry. The cavalry that went out to battle outside Puyang City was just a part of Xuzhou cavalry.

There is a gap in the cavalry. When fighting against the Xuzhou army, they will be at a disadvantage. The roaring cavalry will even affect Yangzhou and Yuzhou. When Lu Bu and Liu Dai confronted each other in Yanzhou, the cavalry came directly. Outside the city of Changyi, it caused a shock in Yanzhou.

When anyone is fighting Lu Bu, one must consider the powerful combat effectiveness of the Xuzhou cavalry.

"However, if Lu Bu did such a thing, the Marquis will not let it go, and must ask Lu Bu to make compensation." Yuan Shu said.

Yang Hong cupped his hands and said: "It's natural, Dongjun is occupied by the Xuzhou Army, and Marquis Wen must express it."

"I'll leave this matter to you." After Yuan Shu finished speaking, he left the central army tent.

In the battle of Yanzhou, it is nothing to lose troops or lose generals. The key is that Lu Bu made him feel depressed. It is obvious that the Yangzhou army has the advantage in strength, but it failed to do more on the battlefield in Yanzhou. On the contrary, the Xuzhou army with fewer troops Successive breakthroughs have been made, and now even Dongjun has fallen into Lu Bu's hands.

Occupying Dongjun will threaten the safety of Chenliu and Jiyin. Judging from Lu Bu's current behavior, he is clearly an ambitious prince. He is so arrogant with only [-] troops in his hands. Once Yanzhou After the situation is stabilized, how rampant it will be.

However, as Yang Hong said, at the critical moment of the confrontation between the Jizhou army and Gongsun Zan, Lu Bu should not be forced too hard. As long as Gongsun Zan can defeat Yuan Shao and occupy Jizhou, it will be Lu Bu who will panic.

Yuan Shu had high hopes for Gongsun Zan. This was the best time to attack Yuan Shao, and he believed that Gongsun Zan would not let go of this opportunity. After defeating Yuan Shao, he would occupy the prosperous Jizhou.

The battle in Yanzhou gradually calmed down. Yuan Shu did not mobilize the army to go to Changyi, so that the Yanzhou officials secretly breathed a sigh of relief and captured Dongjun. That was to provoke Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu is likely to attack Changyi after being angry.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Shu did not do this, as if he didn't care too much about Dong Jun.

This made Yanzhou officials see not only Lu Bu's courage, but also Lu Bu's strength. If Cao Cao or Liu Dai were guarding Yanzhou, would Yuan Shu do this?

The most direct benefit brought by strong strength is the stability of the city.

Yanzhou has experienced a lot of wars and needs to be stabilized. Stability is of great significance to Yanzhou.

Lü Bu is in charge of Yanzhou, and the officials of Yanzhou have not shown resistance at present, because the affairs of Yanzhou are still in charge of the original officials.

After experiencing too much turmoil, Yanzhou officials also urgently need Yanzhou to stabilize, and the powerful Lu Bu can satisfy this point. Besides, even if they have a lot of dissatisfaction with Lu Bu now, can they still send Lu Bu from Yanzhou? Can't get out.

Even the powerful Yuan Shu gave up competing with Lu Bu in Yanzhou, so what effect could their resistance have?

Yang Hong once again came to Changyi as Yuan Shu's envoy. At this time, Changyi was much more stable than when he came last time. A merchant passes by.

War affects the development of a city the most. Once the war starts, the merchants who get the news will leave in a hurry. It is impossible for them to stay in a city caught in the flames of war. The people want to leave, but after leaving their homes, they have nowhere to go. go.

"My lord, Yuan Shu dispatched Chief Shi Yang Hong to the city." Chen Gong said.

Lu Bu nodded and said, "Yang Hong came here just to get some benefits."

"My lord's words are very true. From the point of view of my subordinates, Yuan Shu may be plotting against the hundred-refined weapon in the Xuzhou army." Chen Gong said.

Lu Bu sneered, "How can it be such a simple matter to obtain a hundred-refined weapon."

Hundred-refined weapons can play a great role on the battlefield, and they are usually sold at a high price. Even if the princes are willing to spend a lot of money to buy them, it is still difficult to obtain a large number of hundred-refined weapons. How could Lu Bu do something stupid.

Chapter 191 The price of a hundred refined weapons

It is not a small move for the princes to be able to equip soldiers in the army on a large scale in the Xuzhou army, and they will definitely turn more attention to Xuzhou.

Which vassal would not want to obtain a hundred-refined weapon, especially the forging method of a hundred-refined weapon. After mastering it, it means that there will be a steady stream of hundred-refined weapons in the army.

"This subordinate dares to ask if the lord has mastered the forging method of Hundred Refined Weapons?" Chen Gong asked.

Lu Bu nodded and said: "That's right, the cheapest hundred-refined weapon costs about [-] yuan, but this Marquis has equipped about [-] hundred-refined weapons for the soldiers under his command. Isn't this amount of money going to empty Xuzhou?" ?”

"After the lord masters the forging method of the hundred-refined weapon, other princes will inevitably covet it, and the lord can also take advantage of this to gather materials and money." Chen Gong said in a low voice.

Lu Bu showed curiosity, "The public platform clearly stated."

"In the battle of Yanzhou, the army under the command of the lord shined brilliantly. When they were trapped in the camp and cavalry, when they used the hundred-refined weapon to fight, what a tyrannical combat power they displayed. If you don't sweep the princes, you must be paying attention to the situation on the battlefield in Yanzhou. And when the time comes, the princes will definitely know that the lord holds the forging method of the hundred-refined weapon."

"After seeing the power of the Hundred-Refined Weapon, how can they not be indifferent? When the time comes, the Lord can trade the Hundred-Refined Weapon to obtain supplies, money and food from the hands of the princes. The princes will definitely not refuse."

Lu Bu laughed and said, "I don't want Gongtai to have such ability in business."

"One must be cautious when selling Hundred Refined Weapons. If too many of these excellent weapons fall into the hands of the enemy, there will definitely be problems." Chen Gong said.

"Gongtai, since this lord sells hundreds of refined weapons, how can I be afraid of the large-scale equipment of the princes? With the materials obtained, I will have more hundred-refined weapons. The Marquis is equipped with [-] guns in the army, and it is not easy to surpass the army under the command of the Marquis," Lu Bu said.

"My lord is wise." Chen Gong cupped his hands and said.

"The Bailian long sword is worth 20 yuan, and the first knife of the Bailian ring is [-] yuan. If you go long, you can only make a [-]% concession. If Yang Hong is interested, let's talk to him." Lu Bu said.

Chen Gong took the order to go, and he will make a maximum concession of [-]% of the price. He will definitely not make the biggest concession. This is the time to test his ability. Yuan Shu sent envoys to come, and Lu Bu will definitely show something in terms of money and food. After all, Dongjun was occupied, and Yuan Shu mobilized people to go to Dongjun. If he didn't give an explanation, it would inevitably arouse Yuan Shu's anger further.

Yuan Shu's current calmness is due to the combat effectiveness of Xuzhou's army and Yuan Shao's current situation.

After Lu Bu occupied the city of Yanzhou, he needed to stabilize as soon as possible before he could develop further and have the strength to resist the invasion of other princes in the future.

The next day, Lu Bu summoned Yang Hong, and after a conversation between the two, Lu Bu made a concession.

The Yangzhou army is dispatched and consumes money and food. Xuzhou will donate tens of millions of money and ten thousand stones of rice and grain.

In terms of value, it is second. The key is that Yuan Shu needs this face.

After receiving Lu Bu's promise, Yang Hong was overjoyed. He obtained more Hundred-Refined Weapons, which would help improve the strength of the Yangzhou Army. However, he had a hunch that the price of Hundred-Refined Weapons would not be low. The blades are for sale, but the quantity is very small, and the price of a hundred-refined weapon is expensive.

Yang Hong even wondered if the shop selling Hundred-Refined Weapons in Yangzhou had something to do with Lu Bu, so he must check it out after returning to Yangzhou.

Once the forging of a hundred-refined weapon is broken through, it will greatly improve the strength of the army. An army with a hundred-refined weapon can sweep other troops on the battlefield. This is an unparalleled advantage. Why is it so powerful to be trapped in the camp? Not only because of the elite of the trapped camp, but also has a lot to do with the Hundred Refined Weapons equipped in the trapped camp.

With hundreds of refined weapons, the soldiers in the army can display stronger strength.

Looking at the back of Yang Hong leaving, Lu Bu showed a smile on the corner of his mouth. Selling immortal jade in Pengcheng made Pengcheng develop a lot. Yanzhou achieved development.

The power of merchants cannot be underestimated. When more merchants gather, it will play a big role.

In this era, the status of merchants is low, but what merchants can promote is the prosperity of the city.

Just relying on immortal jade, Lv Bu gained a firm foothold in Xuzhou. Not only that, the production of salt in Xuzhou Linhai is in full swing, which will also be a huge profit. Firmly in control, now that the influence of the imperial court is gone, the princes use their own means.

Salt is an essential thing, without salt in life, it will become dull, and the sales volume of salt is also the largest, and Xuzhou will be at the forefront of salt sales.

With knowledge far superior to other princes, Lu Bu will not forgive himself if he does not use it.

The feudal hegemony depends on the ability of the princes. There is a big gap between Lu Bu and other princes in terms of talents, but Lu Bu will use his strong strength to close this distance.

Judging from the current situation, who would dare to underestimate Lu Bu's influence.

Since entering Xuzhou, in just two years, not only occupied Xuzhou, but also occupied most of Yanzhou. This speed of development is definitely fast. The main thing is that Lu Bu has a very bad reputation. Can the situation be reversed like this when it comes to other princes?

"Bie Jia, Chen." Yang Honglue cupped his hands.

Chen Gong said with a smile: "Yang Changshi has come, our mansion is full of splendor."

Yang Hongdao: "Chen Biejia is highly valued by Marquis Wen, and his future is limitless."

"Yang Changshi is the number one counselor under General Yuan's account, and he has won General Yuan's trust."

After the two flattered each other, Yang Hong said: "I came here just for the matter of Hundred Refined Weapons. I wonder how many Hundred Refined Weapons you can sell?"

"How much does Yang Changshi need?" Chen Gong asked with a smile.

Yang Hong said with a smile: "Biejia is indeed a straightforward person. I need two thousand. I wonder if Biejia can be the master?"

"Yes." Chen Gong nodded and said, "However, to trade a hundred-refined weapon, materials must be used, half of which must be iron."

Yang Hongdao: "I don't know the price of the hundred-refined weapon?"

Both of them are high-ranking people. If outsiders know that the two are talking about what a businessman would do, they don't know what kind of feelings they will have, but Yang Hong doesn't feel that such behavior is inappropriate at all. The impact of the blade is too great.

Obtaining a large number of hundred-refined weapons means that the strength of the army will be significantly improved. Faced with such a temptation, it is difficult for any prince to refuse.

Chapter 192 Trading

Yang Hong also guessed that Lu Bu might have mastered the forging method of the Hundred-Refined Weapon through the large amount of equipment in the Xuzhou Army. Now it seems that this is indeed the case. If not, why would Chen Gong have such confidence.

"The hundred-refined spear is 12 yuan, the hundred-refined long sword is 20 yuan, and the first sword of the Bailian ring is [-] yuan. If you need the rest of the weapons, Yang Changshi will let you know. In terms of price, it will definitely not be expensive. Marquis Wen We are allies with General Yuan." Chen Gong said.

Yang Hongdao: "The price given by Chen Biejia is a bit expensive, the hundred-refined long sword actually costs 12 yuan, as far as I know, the price of the hundred-refined long sword is sold in shops for less than [-] yuan. "

"If that's the case, why didn't Yang Changshi go to the store to buy it?" Chen Gong asked with a smile.

"Marquis Wen and General Yuan are allies. In terms of price, I hope we can make some concessions." Yang Hong said, such a transaction involves a lot of money. If the price is not negotiated because of face, Yuan Shu will lose.

Chen Gongdao: "How can the hundred-refined weapons forged by craftsmen under Marquis Wen be comparable in shops, but since Yang Changshi proposed that the hundred-refined long sword should be priced at [-] yuan."

Seeing that Chen Gong made a concession, Yang Hong's heart moved, knowing that there was still room for bargaining.
