Lu Bu's Ambition

Chapter 783
In the study, Lu Bu's face was solemn, "Once you send troops to Xiliang, Liu Bian from Jiangdong and Liu Bei from Shuzhong will not sit idly by. Who should send troops to Xiliang?"

"My lord, I believe that this battle in Xiliang should be settled as quickly as possible. Otherwise, once Liu Bei and Liu Bian react, it may be a protracted war."

"My minister recommended Xu Rong, Hua Xiong and other Xiliang generals. After all, these people were Dong Zhuo's former generals. There is no other person who is more suitable to attack Xiliang."

Seeing the suggestions of Guo Jia, Tian Feng and others, Lu Bu frowned and pondered for a moment, then said in a concentrated voice: "Xu Rong is indeed the best candidate to send troops to Xiliang."

"Okay, then after the cold winter, let Xu Rong lead [-] troops into Xiliang as the vanguard, and Ying'er lead [-] troops from Chang'an to take Xiliang in one go."

promise!
"My lord, once troops are dispatched to Xiliang, Liu Bei in Shuzhong will never sit idly by. Liu Bei in Hanzhong has already hoarded countless money and food, so he should guard against it."

After Chen Gong judged the situation calmly and expressed his worries, Lu Bu sneered when he heard the words, "Let Gao Shun lead [-] soldiers and horses to stop Liu Bei."

After saying this, Lu Bu paused for a while, and said in a deep voice: "At the same time, Li Jing of Wancheng was ordered to lead an army of [-] troops from Wancheng to attack Hanzhong by surprise before the war started. Alliance possible."

After everyone heard the words, they pondered and thought about it one by one, but they felt that it was feasible, and some even showed a smile of approval.

Once the flames of war break out in Hanzhong, the Longxi area can be recovered, and the border between Li Shimin and Liu Bei will be completely divided.

"My lord, Wancheng will be empty if you come here, and I'm afraid it will be taken by Liu Bian." Guo Jia expressed his worries worriedly.

Although Wancheng is a small city, its geographical location is too important. With Wancheng in hand, it can stop Jingzhou's soldiers and horses. If Wancheng falls into Liu Bian's hands, then the initiative is in the hands of others.

Attacking Yanzhou or attacking Wuguan to threaten Chang'an and Luoyang are huge threats.

After Guo Jia finished speaking, he cupped his hands and said in a deep voice: "I think Wancheng needs a wise and brave general to guard it."

"Mobilize [-] troops from Hebei, and Zhang Liao will lead the troops to guard Wancheng, which is enough to deter Jingzhou."

Lu Bu also took this hidden danger into consideration, and already had a candidate in his mind. The mere city of Wan had to be guarded by [-] soldiers and horses, which was actually too much.

But once the war unfolds, Wancheng will become the key point, and [-] soldiers and horses are not much less.

Li Jing's army made a surprise attack on Hanzhong, and if they failed, they could return to Wancheng, or harass Hanzhong, so that Liu Bei in Shuzhong could not send troops to the Central Plains with peace of mind.

The role of Wancheng is not only an outpost to defend Luoyang and Chang'an, but also a gateway to Yanzhou, and it can also threaten Hanzhong and Jingzhou at any time.

This shows how important Wancheng's geographical advantage is, and it is true that [-] soldiers and horses are not too many.

The intention of this battle is obvious. Liu Bei only needs to stop Liu Bei from going out of Shu.

"As for Xuzhou, after the start of the war, leading 30 soldiers alone will be able to argue how capable this prince who once only knew to flee outside Luoyang City is."

promise!
This is just the initial plan, and no one knows what the war will turn out to be. Once the war gets tight, more reinforcements will definitely be needed.

All over the world, food and grass were transferred to the front line one after another. In the dark, many soldiers and horses began to be transferred to the front line during the autumn. Once the military order arrived, they could immediately go to the battlefield.

Race against time, everyone is actively preparing for the battle, but Luoyang took this opportunity to catch almost all the scholars who came to participate in the imperial examination or Cangshu Pavilion.

Almost [-]% of the scholars chose to stay and worked in the recruiting hall one by one. With the mobilization of soldiers, horses, food and grass, these people showed their abilities one after another.

In just one autumn, the real materials of some people can be seen. You must know that the transfer of soldiers, horses, food and grass involves too many government affairs, and it is also a place where they show their abilities.

Those who are emerging or appreciated are directly transferred to various places to supervise and assist in the mobilization. The food and grass dispatch needed for hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses is not a small amount, and it also requires a group of officials to supervise.

This group of people may not be able to stand alone, but most of them can be used as assistants.

As the Luoyang scholars went back, the strength of Wu Wang Lu Bu was even more publicized, and there were rumors everywhere that Wu Wang Lu Bu was about to unify the world.

Pigeons were flying in the sky, and the first to get the news was Liu Bian, King of Wu in Jiangdong, who immediately called all officials to discuss political affairs.

"Your Majesty, Lü Bupifu has deceived people too much. Does it happen that he really thinks that he can defy the world by himself?"

"That's right, Lu Bu is too rampant, so what if we are the most powerful in the world, this time we will join forces with Liu Bei and Li Shimin from Xiliang, and the momentum will definitely not be weak at all."

"Haha~ Lv Bupifu has considered himself invincible and arrogant for a long time, and he is not far from defeat."

After getting the news, all the Jiangdong officials scolded angrily. This is not only despising their king, but also despising their ability. How can they not be angry.

Looking at the angry civil and military officials, Liu Bian even sneered, "Lü Bu didn't know the heights of the heavens and the earth, and passed on the orders of the lonely king. Exterminate this rebellious minister and thief."

"King Shengming~"

"Fight~ So what if Lu Bu has an army of one million, it's rare that we are bad."

The generals stood up one by one unconvinced and clapped their hands and shouted to start the war.

Liu Bian saw that all the civil and military officials in the court agreed to go to war, and he stood up proudly, waved his hands and shouted: "Send a message to Lu Bu, and after the spring, Gu will lead the king's division into the Central Plains."

promise!
Although all the officials are proud, there are some people who are a little worried. Among them, Liu Bowen sighed in a dull voice: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that Lu Bu is cheating."

Immediately, these words attracted the attention of all the officials and Liu Bian, and Liu Bowen said indifferently: "Though Lu Bu is arrogant and invincible, he is by no means an ordinary man in terms of military power. Will easily and arrogantly face the princes of the world."

"Among the humble ministers, I'm afraid it is true that Lu Bu started the war, but it will definitely not start the war on the three fronts at the same time."

Although the words were very cryptic, there was a fool in the court who understood the meaning in a flash, and Liu Bian blurted out in astonishment: "Lu Bu wants to use this opportunity to make a contribution to one side, not to calm down the world at one stroke!"

After thinking about it carefully, all the officials suddenly realized that without him, Lv Bu's campaign was too strong this time, and even the people of the world thought that Lv Bu was going to send millions of troops to quell the war in the world.

But after thinking about it carefully, Liu Bian and Baiguan's faces were a bit ugly. Although Liu Bei's power in the middle of Shu is weak, he has natural dangers. It is obvious that it is unwise to force the Shu Han, so the only ones left are them and Li Shimin from Xiliang .

"Send a letter to Liu Bei and Li Shimin, this time Lv Bu will come out in full force, I'm afraid he will attack Xiliang first."
