Lu Bu's Ambition

Chapter 140 Intense Heat (seeking five-star praise)

There was a sound of iron hoofs, and after the heavy gate of Maocheng slowly closed with a creak, Huang Zhong, who was in the distance, looked at the tall city panting.

And the figures on the top of the city looked at Huang Zhong's majestic figure one after another, their eyes were full of shock, a little-known captain of Bingzhou could compete with Yan Liang, a famous general in Hebei, and their morale was a little low for a while.

Da da~ Zhang Liao rode his horse to Huang Zhong's side, clasped his fists in joy, and said excitedly: "Han Sheng, after this battle, he will be famous all over the world!"

After hearing Zhang Liao's congratulations, Huang Zhong, who was originally unwilling, instantly flashed a look of pride in his eyes, and clasped his hands together.

"It's far worse than the master's tolerance. If the master is here today, how can the so-called Hebei famous general go back alive." When he said this, Huang Zhong looked at the top of the city with a proud face.

Word by word of the two people's words spread to the top of the city. Yan Liang, who had just stepped onto the tower, heard it, and stared at the two people below with his eyes full of anger.

But the soldiers on the city wall were all shocked after hearing the words, and at the same time secretly said in horror, yes, an unknown captain is so brave, if the invincible Lu Bu came here in person that day, what awe-inspiring power it would be ah.

hateful!In anger, Yan Liang slammed his fists on the battlements hard. Not to mention that he was trampled on to become famous today, he was ridiculed again. He was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.

But in an instant, his angry face turned gloomy, and Yan Liang was panting heavily, clenching his teeth and saying: "Here comes, order General Gao Lan to be careful and annex the state army."

Although he is unwilling, Yan Liang is also a person who can afford to let go. He can distinguish between the serious and the serious. If Gao Lan accidentally encounters Huang Zhong's martial arts today, if there is a mistake, it will not be a small blow to morale.

Zhang Liao and Huang Zhong looked at Yan Liang with a gloomy face on the top of the wall, and sighed in their hearts that this man was so calm, they couldn't help but reined in their horses, and then more than a thousand cavalry slowly disappeared under the hot sun with them.

Zhao Guo was captured by Lu Bu, the important city of Handan, and Gao Lan of Julu had already prepared for it, and Yan Liang, who was hoarding troops in Maocheng, locked Lu Bu's progress.

In the days that followed, Huang Zhong and Zhang Liao led thousands of riders around the two counties from time to time, Yan Liang and Gao Lan put on strict precautions so that they often returned without success.

Although the offensive of Lu Bu Bingzhou Army was prevented in this way, the morale of the same army was hit, and time passed bit by bit.

After July, the weather became even hotter. Not to mention marching and fighting, even when the heat wave hit when you went out, you would feel drowsy and tired.

The war horses were slumped in the stables and did not want to move at all, and the two generals Yan Liang and Gao Lan who were in charge of Zhao Guo and Julu breathed a long sigh of relief after feeling the hot weather.

In such an unbearable hot weather, Lu Bu's Bingzhou army could not hold it even if it was iron-clad. It would take a lot of physical strength to come all the way. If they forcibly attacked the city, the two of them would have full confidence in defending the city.

Both of them are famous generals in the world, every morning in the Chengtou barracks, the soldiers filled the water tanks. After the middle of July, even Zhang Liao and Huang Zhong disappeared.

The weather this year was too hot, and there was a lazy atmosphere in the barracks, even in the Bingzhou barracks among the strongest soldiers in the world.

In a luxurious mansion in Handan City, Lu Bu was wearing plain clothes and looking at the map solemnly, while Guo Jia beside him looked lazy and kept waving the goose feather fan in his hand.

gudu~gudu~
Drinking the cool well water continuously, the tired and weak Guo Jia showed a refreshed and excited look on his face, as if he was full of vitality in an instant in the hot summer.

"My lord, this goose-feather feather fan is really good, hehe." For the feather fan that Lu Bu personally gave him, Guo Jia loved it very much. He almost never left his hand with the feather fan, even holding it at night when he slept.

This is not to flatter Lv Bu, Guo Jia also has a hard time to say, even if it is a stroll outside in this hot summer, people can't bear it.

Looking at Guo Jia who looked like a dead dog, Lu Bu shook his head after seeing it, and the clothes on his back were also soaked, but Lu Bu didn't have any emotion on his face, but stared at the map solemnly.

"Feng Xiao, in such a hot and scorching summer season, I'm afraid the two armies will have to stop for several months." When he said this, a deep worry appeared on Lu Bu's face.

two months!Tens of thousands of soldiers eat horse chews, which is an astronomical figure, which is different from usual. If there is no war, the army generally only needs to eat half full.

But when there is a war, regardless of the priority in other armies, the lieutenants must be fully fed, and they must be full before the battle begins.

The food and grass consumed at once is not a small amount. Guo Jia looked at the worry in Lu Bu's eyes, but waved his hands casually. There were still water stains on the corners of his mouth, but those bright and confident eyes seemed to give people Like a wave of confidence.

This is Guo Jia's charm, whenever those bright eyes are full of confidence, it will infect the people around him.

"Hey, my lord, where is General Yang of Bingzhou when the scorching heat is approaching?" Guo Jia, with a confident smile, pointed to the map on the desk.

Lu Bu nodded lightly when he heard the words, but then he shook his head and sighed: "Even so, under the scorching heat, the two armies can only cease fighting."

Looking at Lu Bu's sadness, Guo Jia chuckled lightly, fanned the feather fan in his hand quite contentedly, and said confidently: "My lord, don't forget that summer is also the rainy season, we don't ask for more, we just ask for the last game." !"

Following Guo Jia's reminder, Lu Bu was startled and slapped his forehead, "Damn it, I actually forgot this."

On the other hand, Guo Jia, who was at the side, saw Lu Bu's suddenly enlightened Mo Yan, but his casual expression froze. He got up respectfully and bowed deeply, and said in a condensed voice: "My lord, you are the heart of the Lord of Bingzhou. Please take care of yourself!"

During this period of time, Guo Jia could see that Lu Bu had too much courage on his shoulders, or it could be said that the pressure from the fourth generation and third father was too heavy.

There are nearly 500 million people in Jizhou. It can be said that after Yuan Shao established his foothold, it would not be a problem to gather hundreds of thousands of troops by relying on Jizhou.

Under the worry in Lu Bu's heart, even in the hot weather, he still went to and from the barracks to lie down in person every day, and he had to deal with government affairs when he came back.

Seeing Guo Jia's solemn attitude, Lu Bu smiled slightly, pointed at Guo Jia, shook his head and said with a light smile, "You are a genius, don't worry, I will know my own body. Now, we should take it easy."

After finishing speaking, Lu Bu seemed to have returned to the time when he was full of confidence. He waved his hands boldly and shouted directly: "Come here, order the whole army to give this general a good rest for the next few days. When the autumn wind arrives, this general will personally lead The famous Hebei general will be in the army for a while~"
