Lu Bu's Ambition

Chapter 1042 Meng Huo Attacks Shu
In the 16th year of Jian'an (AD 211), Meng Huo attacked the Shu army at night. Ma Chao was defeated and led five thousand remnant soldiers to flee in a hurry.

After Meng Huo came back, the Nanman, which was vaguely torn apart, frightened the leaders of the various ministries. In addition, it was announced that Zhuge Liang of the Shu Army planned to pacify the Nanman. Under this strong pressure, all the Nanman ministries returned to Menghuo once again. under control.

Under the scorching heat of June, Meng Huo had just frightened the leaders of the various ministries. He directly used Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei's Shu army's plan to destroy the Nanman as an excuse, and integrated the [-] troops of the Nanman's various ministries to go out to Bodao, and even played a banner to destroy the Shu Han.

The whole world was shaken for a while, and the Jingzhou battlefield was even more unpredictable.

Xiangyang!

After receiving the news that Meng Huo led various ministries to send troops, Liu Bei was furious and angrily pointed at Meng Huo, and attacked their Shu army first.

In the main hall of Xiangyang City, Liu Bei looked at the urgent report from Shu with an ugly expression. At this moment, Ma Chao below him knelt down on one knee in embarrassment, and his whole body was even more embarrassing.

"Why would Meng Huo say that he wants to destroy the Nanman! You have only five thousand of your tens of thousands of troops left!"

Kneeling on one knee, Ma Chao lowered his head in disgrace, and said in a deep voice, "The last general is incompetent. He fell into the trap of Meng Huo carelessly, and he is willing to be punished!"

boom!
After seeing Ma Chao's explanation, Liu Bei slammed the table and pointed at Ma Chao angrily and said, "Punish! Shuzhong is now empty, and Meng Huo led an army of [-] southern barbarians to enter Shuzhong. How will you punish me alone!"

At this time, Liu Bei's eyes were reddened, revealing a gnawing face, the civil and military generals on the left and right all lowered their heads, and many people even frowned with a look of sadness on their faces.

What they are worried about is the middle of Shu, now the interior of the middle of Shu is empty, once the Nanman army breaks into the middle of Shu, no one can stop them, even if they are in Jingzhou, they will not be able to quench their thirst.

Looking at Liu Bei who was furious, Liu Bian's face was ashen, and he cursed endlessly in his heart. This Liu Bei simply failed to achieve success and failed failure.

However, Liu Bian suppressed the anger in his heart because of the sad face of the generals in the middle of Shu. He forced a smile and said, "The King of Han, although there are [-] soldiers in the Southern Barbarians, they have no siege equipment. The King of Han only needs to ask his generals to rely The defense of the city checkpoints will sharpen their spirits, and the Nanman will retreat without fighting."

Such a shameful side was seen by Jiangdong Liu Bian, and Liu Bei blew his beard and stared angrily. He said it lightly, but if there was a chance, then his foundation would be lost.

Without him in Shuzhong, relying on the hundreds of thousands of Shu troops in his hands is just a rootless grassland, so Shuzhong must not be chaotic, let alone lost.

"Report~ Your Majesty, the envoy sent by Lu Jun has arrived outside the city gate!"

Suddenly, the scout yelled loudly, which immediately made Liu Bei's face down. He looked at Liu Bian in an ugly way and finally let out a muffled grunt. He waved his hands aggrievedly and said in a deep voice, "Drive him away!"

promise!
You don't need to think about erecting a monument, but you also know that Lu Bu sent an envoy here not only to make fun of him, but also to shake the morale of the army.

"Chen arrived at Ru quickly and led an army of [-] troops to aid the middle of Shu, blocking the Nanman in the middle of Bo Road. We must not allow the Nanman to enter the middle of Shu!"

"The last general takes orders!"

There must be a general in the center of Shu. This time Liu Bei sent Chen Dao. Liu Bian sighed in his heart when the Shu army dispatched [-] troops. Not only could he not stop this matter, but he would work together with Liu Bei.

Once there is chaos in the middle of Shu, then Liu Bei's army will retreat, and he will be left alone in Xiangyang City all the way, and his morale will plummet. How to resist Lu Bu's tiger and wolf army.

The news of Meng Huo's [-]-strong army attacking Shuzhong had already spread throughout Jingzhou, and everyone in the Shu army was panicked and full of worries.

After all, Shuzhong is their home, if there is chaos in Shuzhong, they don't have the heart to fight on the front line.

People in Xiangyang City were panicked, but outside the city, Lu Jun's camp was very lively.

Lu Bu in the commanding tent of Lu Jun's camp showed a smile and pointed at the generals of the three armies and laughed, "Haha~ Liu Bei is really a good assistant. Before Gu can do anything, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang forced Nanman back."

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, the Nanman rebellion not only broke Liu Bei's arm, but also made the people of Shu panic."

"That's right, the southern barbarian army in Central Shu is in chaos, and the Shu army in Xiangyang City is not worried. It must be that the Shu army has no fighting spirit at this time."

"The majestic power of the great king, Xiangyang City will come down soon."

All the generals of the three armies smiled and complimented each other, of course most of them were full of excitement. If the Shu army was in chaos, it would be much easier to break through Xiangyang and Jingzhou.

"Report~ Your Majesty, the envoys of our army were chased away by the soldiers of Xiangyang and Jingzhou with random arrows."

At this time, after a messenger rushed into the tent and knelt on one knee to report, Lu Bu suddenly laughed happily and said, "Liu Bei is afraid, and the Shu army is panicked!"

haha~
"Your Majesty!"

At this time, Jia Xu slowly came out and cupped his hands and said softly: "Your Majesty, take this opportunity to order the soldiers of the three armies to attack Xiangyang, and at the same time continue to spread rumors, and the Shu army will be in chaos."

"At the same time, General Xu Rong can lead a fierce attack on Yangping Pass to threaten Hanzhong. People in Shuzhong will be fluctuating. Take this opportunity to drive our army to separate people from Shuzhong."

Jia Xu and Guo Jia said each other, and Lu Bu waved his hands with a smile on his face and said, "Okay, let's make dinner at midnight tomorrow, and attack Xiangyang at dawn!"

promise!
Lu Bu, who had just issued the military order, suddenly remembered something, and looked at Guo Jia and Jia Xu with a strange smile on his face.

"Feng Xiao, Wen He, since Meng Huo has rebelled, can Gu join forces with Nanman?"

At this moment, Guo Jia chuckled, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, news has come from the Southern Barbarians in Central Shu. Meng Huo said bluntly that he is willing to join forces with our army, as long as Your Majesty conquers Central Shu, he will submit to you."

Guo Jia, who crossed his hands, squinted his eyes and looked at Lu Bu. The two knew the news well. Meng Huo would definitely surrender, but he would definitely not surrender so easily.

They still need to pay some food and admit the existence of Nanban.

Lu Bu shook his head at all this, and said with a dumb smile: "Send a letter to Meng Huo, as long as the Nanman can hold back the army in the middle of Shu, we will not break our promise after Gudang defeats Liu Bei."

promise!
"By the way, pass the news of Meng Huo's willingness to submit to Gu to Liu Bei, so that everyone in the middle of Shu can clearly know that Nanman is Zhuge's rebellion, not Gu Ye."

promise!
Lu Bu, who was holding Zhizhu, squinted his eyes, and there was a weird smile on his mouth, Liu Bei, Liu Bei, this time Gu will not give you a chance.

The upright army is pressing down on the situation, and the rear is unstable. Let's see how Zhuge Liang can turn things around.

Immediately, rumors were flying in Jingzhou. Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang wanted to secretly disrupt the southern barbarians in order to make Sichuan stable, but they failed to steal the chicken and lost the rice. They leaked the news and forced Meng Huo to turn against him.

Liu Bei is simply dumb and can't tell if he suffers from eating coptis.

And from the second day, Lu Jun began to attack, and the city of Xiangyang was even more stormy, and the Shu army was secretly sad and worried about their hometown. Fortunately, there was a friendly army from Jiangdong, otherwise the Shu army would have been in chaos.

　Hehe~ Passing water has become a father~
