Lu Bu's Ambition

Chapter 692

After a great battle, the two sides ceased fighting until sunset. The battlefield was filled with a strong smell of blood, leaving corpses all over the place.

The 13 troops were dispatched, but only a little over [-] after returning to the barracks, and Liu Bian had less than [-] when he returned to Wancheng with [-] troops.

It seems that Liu Bian lost more than Lu Bu, but in fact, both sides suffered losses, because Lu Bu's elite cavalry lost a total of [-] people in this battle.

After returning to the commander's tent, the soldiers who had already prepared greeted him, and there was a huge wooden barrel in the middle of the door of the commander's tent.

wow~
Splashing water, the generals stepped into the tent one by one and washed their hands and the blood on their faces. After a while, the bucket was already blood red.

Lu Bu, who was seated on the commander-in-chief seat, had a dignified expression on his face. He looked back at Guo Jia and said in a deep voice, "Has the plan of the military division ever gone well?"

Looking at his great king, although he hadn't taken the lead today, Guo Jia still felt a sense of shock.

"Reporting to my lord, the two generals Cheng Lian and Cao Xing have passed through Wancheng secretly through today's battle."

Although it was successful, Guo Jia still couldn't help wiping the cold sweat off his forehead. This risky move cost too much.

In one day of the war, nearly [-] soldiers and horses were killed and injured, and what Cheng Lian and Cao Xing took away were the most elite [-] wolf cavalry in the army.

The loss of [-] cavalry is still affordable, but Guo Jia is worried about the two generals Cheng Lian and Cao Xing. You must know that these two generals are the confidants of his lord.

His skills may not be as good as the world-famous generals, but he is definitely the mainstay and confidant of Lu Bu's rule.

Shaking his head lightly, Lu Bu knew that he had already done what he needed to do. This time it was Cheng Lian and Cao Xing who took the initiative to ask for orders. After thinking of this, he couldn't help feeling sad.

Perhaps he cared too little for his former brothers, and the generals who devoted themselves to each other became famous all over the world, but they were still standing still, how could the hearts of warriors not compare.

Their martial arts skills are not as good as those of the fierce generals in the army, and they are not as good as Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Yang Lin in commanding the three armies, but they are also famous generals under Lu Bu's command.

The unyielding character and their age make them go head-on. If they don't seize the opportunity, they will never have this opportunity when they are old.

"Feng Xiao Feiying sent a letter to Chang'an to stabilize Guanzhong and ordered Zhang He to lead [-] troops to help Wuguan."

promise!
"The cavalry harassed Liu Bian's grain road to buy more time."

promise!
After finishing the arrangement, Lu Bu carefully recalled that there was nothing missing, and it could only be regarded as the fate of Lian and Cao Xing, but Guo Jia was a little hesitant.

"My lord, today the enemy army insisted on fighting in the field until sunset even when they knew it was unfavorable!"

At this time, Guo Jia couldn't help being a little suspicious. Although Lu Bu's army strength was twice as small, tens of thousands of cavalry were enough to form a deadly existence. An army of 10,000+ accidentally would be defeated.

Wancheng!

Liu Bian, who had returned to the city on the day of the war, had a look of exhaustion on his face. The scene of cavalry on the battlefield today was vivid in his memory. He could be said to be playing with fire today.

He was very nervous, fearing that the cavalry would catch the opportunity and cause the army to be defeated. It can be said that he has been staring at the battlefield today, guarding against the cavalry all the time.

tired!Tired!Brain tired!

But the scenes of large-scale cavalry criss-crossing the land reverberated in Liu Bian's mind, which made Liu Bian feel a little scared. What if Lu Bu dispatched [-] instead of nearly [-] cavalry next time?
Thinking of this, Liu Bian couldn't help but tremble in his heart. Looking back at the military advisor he relied on, he said in a deep voice, "Military advisor, is there a way to restrain Lu Bu's cavalry?"

Liu Bowen smiled wryly after hearing this, he knew why his king was so worried, seeing the scene of nearly [-] cavalry on the battlefield today, he was also terrified.

"My lord, the crossbow and ballista can restrain the cavalry, but the mobility of the cavalry will also easily dodge and wait for the opportunity to move, unless there is a last resort, they will hit hard."

"But these are all methods of restraint by a small group of cavalry. Once the number of cavalry reaches tens of thousands, as you have seen today, my lord, even if they can be fierce for a while, the charge of the cavalry after the short-handed battle between the two armies can completely overwhelm the front army."

After hearing this, Liu Bian nodded solemnly, yes, in ancient times at this time, cavalry has been the king since ancient times on the battlefield of cold weapons.

"But don't worry, Your Majesty, even if Li Shimin succeeds in retreating to Xiliang, he will be alone. He will definitely form an alliance with our army, and then we will have a source of cavalry."

Saying this, Liu Bowen knew that this could only be relieved. How many war horses Xiliang could have, how many Li Shimin could support him even if he tried his best.

"The situation in the world is now clear. Our army's Jingzhou and Huainan lands are bordering on Lu Bu's forces. If we can't form an elite cavalry within three years, I'm afraid that the battle situation in the Central Plains will change a little bit in the future."

cavalry!Liu Bian couldn't help frowning when he thought of this type of army. He is not bad at the moment, the only thing missing is the cavalry. If there is no cavalry to fight Lu Bu in the future, he will suffer from the cavalry on the battlefield.

Looking at the impatient King Liu Bowen, he didn't understand, but he explained patiently, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the world has been fighting hard for a long time, and our army and Lu Bu are both at the end of their battles. The soldiers under his command are exhausted, and the people under his rule need stability."

"I dare say that once Xiliang is settled, the world will have at least three to five years of peace."

In the past few years, the princes of the Han Dynasty have been fighting continuously, and Shuzhong is better. Unfortunately, Liu Beixin needs time to digest and completely digest Shuzhong into his own power.

"Military divisions fought for a day today, did Yang Su succeed?"

After hearing these words, Liu Bowen couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, with a smile on his lips, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, there is a letter from Feige. Yang Su has already led the troops to touch the boundary of Wancheng, and it will be done in a few days!"

When Liu Bowen said this, there was a smile. After all, the casualties were so great that the effort was not in vain. After hearing this, Liu Bian gave a self-comforting smile.

He played so big this time, and the soldiers under his command suffered heavy casualties, so it was not in vain.

"Decree that Wancheng is under martial law, and all the generals in the army are ready to go to war at any time."

promise!
Both Liu Bian and Lu Bu secretly rejoiced at the hand they kept, but they didn't know that both sides had such plans.

Since the First World War between the two sides, the two armies had no intention of withdrawing their troops in the cold winter at all, and scouts went out every day to inquire about the enemy's situation.

Small-group warfare has never disappeared, but both sides of the large army are avoiding it, or Liu Bian is trying his best to avoid it.

Both sides are waiting, not only waiting for their own hand, but also waiting for who gets Xiliang's hand.

Li Shimin led the three armies and finally entered Xiliang after paying a painful price. Zhuge Liang's aggrieved feelings were similar to Liu Bian's.

The cavalry is really a headache and hot-eyed king of the battlefield. Obviously under the absolute advantage, Zhuge Liang leads an army of 10,000+.

As a result, Li Shimin went all out and personally led the Xuanjia Army to take the lead, and even Li Yuanba, the number one fierce general of Li Tang, existed.

Breaking through Zhuge Liang's encirclement, leading [-] soldiers and horses to break out of the encirclement, and entered the Xiliang territory.
