Water Margin: Lu Bu sits on Mount Liang

Chapter 553 Dayuan
Tianqing six years, late in the first month.

Small snowflakes floated in the air, and the particles were carried to the ground and roofs by the north wind. Gradually they accumulated into large pieces, and it looked like there were several more patches of white between the sky and the earth.

There was a loud noise at the gate of the city. The figure in official uniform was pushed out of the gate. He staggered and fell to the ground. The official hat on his head flew a few steps away. The figure who climbed up took another step forward. Soon Being forced by the sharp spear, he had no choice but to retreat.

"Wolf ambition! Gao Yongchang..." Xiao Yisu's braids on her head trembled slightly in anger, and her fair face was as red as bloodshot.

"Don't be upset when we check. Before we came here, didn't you and I already predict that this person would not be called to the capital?" The official named Gao Xingshun, with a livid face, picked up his official hat and handed it to Xiao Yisu: "You and I are not as good as Go back immediately and report it to your Majesty as soon as possible so that we can dispatch troops to exterminate this guy as soon as possible."

"...It can only be like this."

Xiao Yisu glared fiercely at the soldiers guarding the city gate. Xiao Yisu took a deep breath, and then turned back to Beijing with Gao Xingshun to prepare a complaint. However, they had not yet entered Shangjing Road. Even after hearing this, the imperial court summoned a total of 50,000 troops from Shangjing Road and Nanjing Road to send troops. Liaodong, intending to wipe out the rebels Gao Yongchang and Lu Bu.

When the news reached Liaodong, people close to the imperial court breathed a sigh of relief. Smiles appeared on their originally expressionless faces. Many people walked out of the room looking happy. As for the rebels who were afraid in the past... that was still the case. Although he was afraid, he just felt more confident and looked at the traitor with pity in his eyes.

On the other side, the Dayuan Palace and the former Liaoyang Mansion became nervous under such news. Gao Yongchang, who had been fighting abroad, caused more than 20 military states to rebel. Under such a situation, Gao Yongchang could not help but return from the front line and hurried back all the way. To the palace.

"Your Majesty, news has arrived from the north. The army is led by Xiao Han's slaves and Zhang Lin, a total of 20,000 troops. From the south, Yelv Dezhong is in command. The two armies of horse and infantry, totaling 30,000, have merged at this time. I don't know where to attack. Come."

"There are quite a few people..." Gao Yongchang, who was walking forward, frowned: "I have just captured Xizhou and Xianzhou. There are already troops building defense lines there. The west is safe... How many states are there in the north? Not attached?”

The originally spacious courtyard was being remodeled. A group of Bohai men worked feverishly to dig out the bricks and pave them with gravel. The bare trees on both sides were cut down and fell. Their feet wearing combat boots walked on the newly paved path. Ye and Piaohe walked behind. After Emperor Dayuan's voice fell, the rough-looking Ta Buye thought for a moment: "Now there are many people from all over the world who have surrendered. Yelu Yujian, the guard of Guidezhou, sent an envoy yesterday to submit a letter of attachment. In this way, Liaozhou, Yinzhou, and Guizhou can be connected in a line. Now Shenzhou is the only one who is determined, and the people sent to persuade him to surrender have also been driven out of the city. "

"That's what General Tabuye said." Liao Heyi touched his long beard and grinned: "Although Binzhou in the south is attached to us, further south is the territory of the Lu thieves. Your Majesty, the Liao people have already issued a proclamation. If you want to attack us and the Lu bandits, why not join forces with them to fight against the Liao army?"

A few people walked and gradually entered the "Imperial Palace". Gao Yongchang took the mink fur cloak he was wearing and handed it to the old housekeeper beside him. He kept pursed his lips and listened to the words of these two people. These two people were his confidant generals and the first to know. The people he cares about, he also has great trust in these two people.

"A bunch of mud-legged people..." He muttered, and the Yuan Emperor, who claimed to be a descendant of the Bohai Emperor and a natural aristocrat, spat out a breath and slapped the table: "Forget it, write an edict to Lu Bu and ask him to lead troops to help."

Ta Buye glanced at Lio He, and the long-bearded Bohai man grinned as if he had a toothache: "Your Majesty, although Lu Bu is just a rabble, he also dominates dozens of military states and has many soldiers and horses in his hands. I am afraid……"

Before he finished speaking, Gao Yongchang also knew what he meant. He struggled a little and sighed: "It's really..."

Ta Buye and Lao He both lowered their heads and said, "We are guilty of causing the Holy Emperor to suffer such humiliation."

"Forget it, it's not a big deal." Gao Yongchang cheered up and waved his hand: "Send someone to contact Lu Bu and make an agreement with him to fight against the Liao army. I think he will agree." "My emperor is wise."

"So... I'm sending an edict to Yelu Yu, asking him to lead his troops south." The figure who stood up took a few steps forward, and Gao Yongchang's face was full of anger: "I want to be there before the Liao army arrives. Pull out the nail in Shenzhou and let my voice be the only one left in the middle of Liaodong."

Pulling out the bright sword from his waist, he slashed off a corner of the table next to him. He immediately put the sword back into its sheath and heard Gao Yongchang's voice say with hatred: "Send the order to brother Xian and En Shengnu to order their troops." After Yelu Yujian received the edict, he followed my troops to Shenzhou."

Now there is no one in the Liaoyang Prefecture who can oppose Gao Yongchang. Moreover, Tabuye and Liaohe also know that Shenzhou's existence is not good for the Liaoyang Prefecture, so they naturally agree.

Not long after, two teams of fast horses quickly left the city with Gao Yongchang's imperial edict. One team headed towards Desheng Prefecture, and the other team went south to Binzhou to where Lu Bu was in Haizhou in the south.

……

At the same time, in the wilderness more than fifty miles east of Liao River, more than 5,300 cavalrymen were running with abandon, raising smoke and dust all over the sky.

"Speed ​​up your horse, rush to Liao River to rest at noon, and then return to the military camp." Xiao Haili and Du Bu's voices shouted loudly in the team.

"Roar--"

The rumble of hoofbeats sounded, and a group of cavalry responded. Occasionally, a hunter passed by the forest and saw a large number of cavalry running. He couldn't help but quickly find a place to hide and lie down, for fear that someone would look at him and chop him with a knife. head.

Soon, the cavalry team shaking the earth in the field of vision flew past and disappeared into the distance.

It was past noon, and the sky was turning from bright to dark. Lu Bu led the cavalry from the military camp and rushed to the Liaoshui River. He intended to familiarize these knights with the feeling of such an attack. There were many horses in the north, and he was good at commanding them. Instead of spending energy on the infantry, the cavalry should focus more on the horse army. No matter whether they face the Liao army or the Song army in the future, the horse army is the basis for ensuring victory.

Smoke and dust rose into the sky, and the cold wind blew on his face like a knife. Not long after, he saw Liao He's figure raising Fang Tian's painted halberd: "Stop the army, rest where you are, feed the horses water and food!"

After giving the order, Lu Bu got off his horse, patted the sweaty Red Rabbit, and asked him to run away and eat moss. Then he walked to the side and sat down on the big bluestone: "The horse army has trained well. No one has fallen behind so far. Go back and work harder." Training on riding, shooting and charging, in a place where there are many horses, it is still necessary to rely on force. "

Xiao Haili came over with a water bag, handed it to Lu Bu, rubbed his nose and sat down: "General, how about we wait and expand a group of cavalry? The Liao army will enter Liaodong soon. I always feel like it’s not enough.”
