Lu Bu's Sims

Chapter 359 The general trend of the world
In August of the fourth year of Jian'an (AD 199), Cao Cao was trapped in Xiapi, and was even more impenetrable by the army of Beiliang.

During this period of siege and isolation from the outside world, not only Xuzhou fell, but also officials from aristocratic families who had just recovered from Yangzhou surrendered.

The situation of Lu Bu swallowing the world has become a reality, and Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, who are fighting to death in the north, are shocked. They never thought that things would be so unexpected.

The emperor was killed!Otherwise, in the hearts of the two of them, it would be to let Cao Cao wear down the morale of Lu Bu in Beiliang, and when they decide the winner, they will directly attack Hebei with the strength of the two states and take back Jizhou.

Logically speaking, the two of them have the right idea, but there must be a premise, that is, the two of them will decide the winner as quickly as possible, and then reorganize their troops.

No one expected that something would happen to the emperor, and directly let Cao Cao bear the stigma of making the emperor suffer, not to mention ruined reputation, but also lost the hearts of the people.

Lu Bu's Northern Liang army grandly used the slogan of avenging the emperor and eradicating national traitors for the great man. At this juncture, if you dare to resist, they will slaughter you if they break the city of Beiliang, and then everyone in the world will have to applaud. Let you and the gang of national thieves who killed the emperor.

Arrogant!

After the news of the death of the emperor came, the 30 soldiers in Beiliang, all of them hung white flags and wore white belts, and the tigers came out of their cages, sweeping almost the entire Central Plains.

It was too late when Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang got the news, they hurriedly called a truce and chose to go back to rule the country. As a result, Cao Cao had already been defeated, and it was still a crushing defeat.

Qingzhou!

In the hot summer of August, Yuan Tan from Qingzhou saw the dead soldiers rushing out of Xiapi City in Xuzhou, dripping with blood, and couldn't help being frightened and shocked.

In the hot summer season, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, and a cold air rushed straight to his head from the bottom of his heart.

Opening the letter tremblingly, Yuan Tan looked at the letter in shock, and finally fell down on the chair in despair, and the letter fell off by accident.

Xiansi nephew.

At the beginning, the bones of the zombies were not cold, and you, as heirs, used swords recklessly. Now that Lu Bu from Beiliang has swept the world, we know that the situation has come, and the whole family of the Cao family is about to be exterminated, but what about you and the Yuan family?
Lu Bu of Northern Liang has already ruled the north, so the only people who worry about it are Qingzhou and Youzhou.

Now the only hope is that the princes join forces to deal with Lu Bu, of course!The emperor died, and the old man suffered an injustice. Unfortunately, the old villain Liu Biao of Jingzhou has lost his courage, and the princes have no chance to join forces.

The old man and Ben Chu met once, and today I would like to advise you to surrender as soon as possible if you want to survive, so as to keep the incense of the Yuan family alive, and at the same time hope that nephew Xiansi will take care of my Cao family.

Cao Cao's last word!

A simple letter, but also a last letter, Yuan Tan stared at the door in a daze. He knew the name outside, and the greenery was lush, but he knew that it might not be long before this place did not belong to him. up.

He can't even control his own life.

Jingzhou.

In the barracks, Liu Bei's sideburns had grown wildly in just a few months, and the friendly smile in the past disappeared without a trace, leaving only a calm expression and indifferent eyes.

"Everyone, Cao's defeat is imminent. The next step for Lu Bu is Jingzhou. You all have a good strategy."

This time, all the laughter and pride in the tent disappeared, without him, ever since their lord was implicated in the death of the emperor, he felt sad.

In the end, Chen Gong sighed, cupped his hands and went out: "My lord, Liu Biao thought that the emperor's revenge would win the hearts of the people, so he stood firm in Xiangyang, and the morale of his soldiers was also greatly boosted, as well as the Yizhou army."

When talking about the Yizhou Army, Chen Gong frowned even more with a headache. You said that Liu Zhang was timid and fearful, but he sent troops, not only sent troops, but also a 15-strong army. Although the loss is not small, only [-] to [-]. But people still withstood the pressure.

Now his lord even wrote a letter to explain the key relationship, but Yizhou has been pretending to be deaf and dumb, and [-] Yizhou soldiers have stood on the same line with Liu Biao of Jingzhou.

"My lord, Jiangdong Sun Ce was assassinated, and now he is sick in bed. His brother Sun Quan is in charge of everything in Jiangdong. Let's send an envoy to contact Jiangdong."

With a sigh, Chen Gong knew that when Lv Bu went south, it would be a shocking moment. He couldn't judge the [-] troops in Yizhou, but Liu Biao's [-] sailors were afraid!
Now he can only resist it if he joins forces with the Jiangdong Sun family and the two sides join forces to exhaust the army.

After hearing what his confidants and military advisers said, Liu Bei secretly sighed, but there was no sadness or joy on his face, and he said in a deep voice: "Quickly send envoys to Jiangdong to discuss joining forces to fight against Lu Bu in the north."

promise!
Yizhou!

Liu Zhang looked at Liu Bei's personal letter, hesitated for half a month, and finally sighed helplessly: "This is what to do. Lu Bu is powerful, and Yizhou cannot afford to offend."

"However, what Liu Bei said is not unreasonable, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold."

He was also afraid of offending Lu Bu, and the end would be absolutely miserable, but he didn't know how to do it. Finally, after half a month of reflection, he sighed secretly, and immediately gritted his teeth and decided what to do.

"Come here, you will go to Jingzhou as soon as possible, so that our army will come back, and none will be left behind. By the way, all the food and grass will be sent to Liu Bei at the same time. Remember the secret point of doing it."

promise!
The best way he can think of is to leave it alone, you guys are done, I don't play anything anymore, I just want to hit you.

You, Liu Bei, don't blame me for causing trouble. If this is not food, take it as an apology.

The meaning is very simple, you Liu Bei fight Jiang Dong and Lu Bu, if you can withstand it, he Liu Zhang will continue to be partial, even if you are not enough for food and grass, he can help you.

But if you all can't beat Lu Bu, he can't do anything, anyway, he won't be offended, at least he can get rich in the end.

Liu Zhang is not a very ambitious person, he just wants to live, and he only wants his children to live well.

Almost all the princes in the world, except Yizhou, belonged to the Jiangdong army and had enough food. The rest of the princes were exhausted from fighting, but it was a pity that Sun Ce was assassinated.

Zhou Yu even looked at Hefei and sighed, time is fate, Jiangdong has been preparing for many years to turn into east water and never return.

Today's Hefei has planted the Beiliang Lu Bu's battle flag, and [-] cavalry galloped wantonly. This is to deter them. If they dare to invade Jiangdong, they must be prepared to directly meet the Beiliang army.

"Bo Fu, time is fate, maybe there really is a destiny."

At this time, Zhou Yu couldn't help but sigh with emotion, the death of the emperor was too inopportune, but for Lu Bu, the time and place were too opportune, it was simply a godsend.

"Brother Bofu cultivates well, so there may not be a chance. As long as he joins forces with Liu Bei to block Lv Bu's military might from going south, there may be a chance to fight again."

Looking at the surging waves, Zhou Yu's eyes flashed with determination, there is still a chance!If Lu Bu can go directly, if they block it, then the Yuan family in Qingzhou and Youzhou in the rear will not easily let go of this opportunity.

same!It wouldn't be a big problem if Lu Bu took care of Eryuan!As long as they can block Lu Bu's first southward move, they won't have the pressure to win the first time.

not to mention!How old is Lu Bu!
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu's eyes sparkled with fire. Lu Bu is over forty years old, how long can he live?

"Lu Bu must re-establish the emperor, or step in and take over, or even become king and hegemony. When the world is in turmoil, Bofu! We still have a chance."

"Lü Bu is old, is it possible that his son can be stronger than Lu Bu?"

"If Lu Bu stands in place of the Han, then he will be a traitor! The world is in turmoil, which is our opportunity, even if Lu Bu's successor can't control this arrogant soldier."

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu smiled, "Hehe, the general trend is inevitable, but youth is also capital."

Lu Bu, who was far away in Xuzhou, didn't know what Zhou Yu was thinking, and he wanted to wait for him to die, or he would stand in place of the Han.

Xiapi.

In the Beiliang barracks, 20 troops surrounded Xiapi City on all sides. Cao Cao in the city had only [-] confidantes and elites. Similarly, Lu Bu did not choose to attack by force, and even the remaining [-] troops had already swept the Central Plains.

"Wenhe, Fengxiao, please tell me, the officials in Chang'an have selected a two-year-old child of the royal blood of the Han family. Are we going to set up the emperor?"

Looking at the letter from Chang'an, this time the tent was completely silent, only Lu Bu, Jia Xu and Guo Jia were there, and outside the tent, Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang personally led the troops and stared at the surroundings vigilantly.

At this moment, facing such a sensitive topic, Jia Xu lowered his head and broke out in a layer of cold sweat. He kept wiping and even sweating his palms.

And Guo Jia is obviously more courageous, but he also knows the seriousness of the gaffe, and finally raised his head after pondering for a while and said in a deep voice: "My lord, everyone in the world has said that the lord has the heart of disobedience, maybe!"

"No, my lord, now that the trend of sweeping the world has been achieved, it is absolutely impossible to cause turmoil in the world at this juncture."

Before Guo Jia finished speaking, Jia Xu hurriedly wiped off his cold sweat and began to persuade. At this time, the opportunity to rule the world is coming, so he must not dare to make a fool of himself.

However, seeing Jia Xu's cautiousness, Guo Jia smiled and shook his head, "My lord, Jia's meaning is just what the world thinks, so let's wait!"

Jia Xu was stunned by the words, and Lu Bu frowned and pondered. Only Guo Jia smiled and said, "If we don't establish this emperor, then Liu Bei, Liu Biao, and Liu Zhangnei? Will they be established?" Jiangdong Sun."

"Is their identity enough? Liu Bei's body can't be washed clean, and Liu Zhang is not mentioned because of his father. The Liu family's blood in Yizhou is a bit far away, and Liu Biao is even a dead bone in the grave."

"It's impossible for the three Lius. They don't have chess pieces in their hands, and Sun's is even more impossible."

"In this way, the master will not be established! The world will be without a master for a day."

When he said this, Guo Jia's eyes flashed with fiery eyes, "My lord is waiting to defeat Cao Cao, and after the north is wiped out, he will use the power of victory to establish himself in the northern cracked soil and become king! We still don't want to establish a great Han emperor!"

What is it called?Jia Xu was stunned, and Lu Bu's eyes widened.

In other words, there is no emperor during this window period?It's like the empty window period after Qin destroyed Zhou in the Warring States Period, so that's it!
Seeming to have thought of something, Lu Bu blurted out, "Fengxiao, you mean to say that even the ambitious queen will also be crowned king!"

At this moment, Lu Bu realized that as long as Lu Bu ascended the title of king, then the rest of Yizhou Liu Zhang, Jingzhou Liu Bei, Liu Biao, and Jiangdong's Sun family would be able to do so.

Whoever claims to be the king is his enemy, or even wants to become the king, and whoever keeps silent will first meet their hatred, and even say that this cowardly person will first seek refuge with a master.

"Liu Biao! Liu Zhang!"

After being shocked, Jia Xu frowned and pondered. There are only these two people now. One has a low possibility and the other has no capital.

"My lord, Liu Biao and Liu Bei are against each other, and this person has no ambitions, and Jingzhou has only a few cities, so there is almost no basis for hegemony. As long as Liu Zhang does not become king, then Liu Biao can only rely on the lord."

"Liu Zhang is timid, but the death of his father Liu Yan is closely related to the lord. I am afraid that this person will be deceived by the villain in the end and seek refuge with Liu Bei or the Jiangdong Sun family."

Jia Xu frowned and analyzed what was in his mind, Guo Jia even squinted his eyes and nodded.

"Sweeping the north, if the world is in turmoil, Liu Bei, Liu Zhang, and the Jiangdong Sun family will use this as an excuse. Let's switch to attacking and defending. Let's first consume the spirit of the last three princes. Only after the people's hearts are settled, the Northern Liang army will go south. At that time How can the princes of the three routes stop the exhausted army?"

"Let's attack all the way, advance in circles, and join hands! How much heritage can Yizhou, Jingzhou, and Jiangdong have."

"My lord controls the northern land, and has millions of troops. His generals are like clouds, and counselors are like rain. If you dare to join forces, the army will come out and consume! We rely on the vast resources of the north and consume Jingzhou, Yizhou and Jiangdong. The mountains and rivers are exhausted!"

Seeing the sneering Guo Jialu Bu smiled, he couldn't help clapping his hands and said: "Jingzhou has been exhausted after many years of war, and Yizhou has been implicated again, which means that only Jiangdong is the capital of prosperity."

In a word!Be king!I will force you to become kings!Otherwise, it will kill you.

Seeing Guo Jia and Jia Xu complementing each other, Lu Bu smiled, "Then Cao Cao is still in the Pit, and when the Pi is broken, we will clean up the two Yuans."

While Lu Bu was discussing how to destroy Xiapi in Xuzhou, Cao Cao, who was in Xiapi city with white hair, even stepped onto the top of the city.

"How long have you been following me?"

At this moment, Cao Cao looked indifferently at the Beiliang soldiers and horses besieging him in the distance, and even asked casually to the civil and military behind him.

The generals behind him looked at each other in dismay, and Dian Wei clasped his fists directly and said in a deep voice, "My lord, the last general has been following the lord since he was appreciated by the lord in the second year of the lord's crusade against Dong Zhuo and in the first year of Chuping (AD 190). Nine years."

The rest of the people seemed to have noticed something, and their eyes were stretched out with dim colors. Only Cao Cao seemed to have the same calm and unbreakable demeanor in the face of desperation.

Listening to the reply from only Dian Wei behind him, Cao Cao laughed out loud.

"Haha~ So it's been so long. It's been ten years since I, Cao Mengde, rebelled against Dong in the first year of Yonghan (AD 189), and ten years have passed since Hulao joined forces with the princes in the first year of Chuping."

While talking and laughing, Cao Cao was even more emotional, and he gave a chuckle as he stroked the white hair at the temples with his rough fingers.

"It turns out that I, Cao Mengde, is getting old. You guys have followed me, Cao Mengde, to the end. Do you have any regrets?"

"My lord, we are willing to serve our lord with our lives."

"My lord, the last general is willing to lead the army to escort the lord out with all his might."

"Yes, I will swear allegiance to the lord to the death."

All the generals behind clasped their fists and yelled loudly, their eyes were red. They were loyal to Cao Cao, but Cao Cao waved his hands and laughed loudly after hearing the words: "You and I are a king and a minister. It's better to take my Cao Mengde's head. It is my Cao Mengde's last contribution to the kings for the affection between you and me as kings and ministers."

"Lord!"

All the generals who knelt together had tears in their eyes, and their eyes were red. How could they do such a thing.

Seeing this scene, Cao Cao's eyes were even a little moist. He looked straight at the great mountains and rivers in the distance, and suddenly he raised his hands to the sky and laughed.

"Haha~ joking ears, gentlemen, don't panic, don't panic."

Cao Cao, who was laughing loudly, walked down Xiapi City calmly, but it cast a haze on everyone's hearts. Is their lord already determined to die?

Then they turned their heads to look at the dark army of Beiliang, and then turned their heads to look at the head of Xiapi city and the city. They were so lifeless that they all laughed wryly. The spirit of old age.
