Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

Chapter 130 129 We are willing to fight to the death for the Marquis of Lanling

In Xiaoguan City, the generals of the Cao army did not throw a celebration banquet because they won this important pass that was related to conquering Xuzhou's life and food road.

Because this night, or the next few days, is destined to have no peace.

The most basic thing is that they need to comb Xiao Guan's hair first, and hand over the remaining Lu Junqing.

Secondly, it is necessary to re-arrange and control, arrange sentries and cavalry in different shifts, and patrol the night.

Then it is necessary to count all the resources in the city. These tasks cannot be completed in two or three days.

Xia Houyuan came to tell Cao Cao that there were [-] large warehouses and [-] small warehouses for food and grass in the city, and the visual estimate was no less than [-] shi. The exact number still needs to be counted.

Armaments and supplies were abundant, and there were two warehouses piled up for arrows alone. Calculated as [-] arrows in one warehouse, this was a full [-] arrows.

There are also knives, guns and tung oil, all of which are valuable strategic resources.

"Unexpectedly, Lu Bu today is much richer than a year ago." Even Cao Cao couldn't help being speechless.

Well, with these resources, my pressure will be reduced a lot.

Then the sentry cavalry came to report, and a large number of Lu Jun cavalry was found in front of them.

Cao Cao was very surprised that Lu Bu led the army to come.

Lu Bu's army only had cavalry, and there was no formation at all. Cao Cao was even more puzzled as they rushed towards Xiaoguan in a hurry.

Xiao Guan has changed hands, it is impossible for Lu Bu not to know this.

Although today was a complete victory, there were no less than 3000 to [-] deserters who ran out from Xiaoguan, especially the group of people who followed Lin Mo rushed out and fled in all directions, there were no less than a thousand people.

That being the case, why come to Xiaoguan to attack the city?That can't run a bunch of cavalry, it's still in a state of rapid march.

When Dian Wei came back, Cao Cao immediately understood that Lin Mo had been hiding in the hills to the west. As for Lu Bu, if Lin Mo didn't return, he probably thought he was trapped in Xiaoguan.

He just wanted to ask me for someone. This kid is really lucky, he escaped from my hands twice.

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes and stroked his short beard.

In today's battle, the strength of the soldiers was actually well preserved. Even if they marched from Xiangxian county, they still had the strength to fight.

As for Lu Bu, who had just rushed over from Pengcheng, if he was tired, he must be even more tired.

At least for now.

But he can't leave the customs rashly. Now that Lin Mo is not by his side, Lu Bu is a reckless idiot, so this opportunity cannot be missed.I have to find a way to use Lin Mo to make a fuss.
Cao Cao was pacing back and forth in the council hall, his dark eyes turned and turned again and again, after an unknown period of time, he suddenly became certain, and the corners of his mouth showed a hint of slyness.

Not long after, Xu Chu ran in, cupped his hands and said, "Sikong, it's less than five miles away."

Cao Cao nodded, raised his forehead and said, "Let's go to Chengguan."

It was less than a moment before he went to the city gate, and he could see the torches in the distance undulating, under the reflection of the torches, the cavalry rushed towards Xiaoguan like a tide.

Lu Bu, who was riding a fiery red red rabbit horse, rushed to the front, and the cavalry behind him gathered behind him like bees returning to their nests from all directions.

Obviously, they were in a state of rapid march, and they didn't pay attention to any formation at all.

"Cao Cao, come out and meet!" As Cao Cao said, on the way here, Lu Bu met many groups fleeing from Xiaoguan, and they told Lu Bu that Xiaoguan had fallen.

This news made him feel like he was struck by lightning, and he couldn't help urging the soldiers to hurry up.

What made him even more frightened was that no one saw Lin Mo, which made Lu Bu suspect that Lin Mo must have fallen into Cao Cao's hands.

Of course, he knew that there was a high probability that Lin Mo's life would not be in danger.

After all, Cao Cao has been coveting such a great talent for a long time.

"Lu Bu, did you come here for Yunwen?" Cao Cao supported the city wall with both hands, and looked down at the group of cavalry holding torches.

Sure enough, it was in his hands!
Lu Bu didn't know whether to be happy or worried, he just shouted from his heart: "Release my son-in-law and daughter, Xiao Guan, it's yours!"

"Hahaha"

Cao Cao laughed straight away, "Why, if I don't let him go, can you take Xiao Guan back?"

"you"

Lu Bu was gritted by his angry teeth. According to his temper, he really wanted to shoot a golden feather arrow directly to kill Cao Cao, but Lin Mo and Lu Lingqi were in danger, so how could they dare to mess around.

He suppressed the anger in his heart and stared at the complacent Cao Cao.

I don't know how long it took, took a deep breath, and shouted: "Give me back Yunwen and Ling'er, and the three counties of Dongguan, Langya, and Donghai will return to you. I will let them withdraw their troops and return to Pengcheng tomorrow, how about it!"

Hearing this, Chen Gong, Jia Xu and the others gasped. Even Cao Cao, who had expected Lv Bu's chaos in Chengguan, was extremely shocked. He dared to make such a condition.

Three counties for two people?
Not to mention Dongguan and Langya, where is the East China Sea? The key to guarding Mount Tai is the gateway to Pengcheng just like Peicheng.

If even the East China Sea fell into Cao Cao's hands, Cao's army would be able to attack from Qiaojun and Mount Tai in the future, and besiege Pengcheng within a day, occupying the absolute dominance of the battlefield.

There is another key point that must be mentioned. Since the introduction of Quyuanli and keel waterwheels and the relocation of Huainan refugees, the East China Sea has become Xuzhou's granary, and almost all the wasteland has been reclaimed.

According to statistics during the autumn harvest this year, the harvest in Donghai County is more than that of Langya and Dongguan combined.

It is estimated that by next year, this county will be comparable to Pengcheng and Xiapi.

Lü Bu, you are really willing, Cao Cao shook his head.

In fact, it's not that Lu Bu doesn't understand this truth, but in his eyes, nothing is more important than his daughter and son-in-law.

As long as they can come back safely, the three counties will be sent away.

Originally, after the massacre of the city in Xuzhou, these three counties were in ruins. It was Lin Mo who allowed them to slowly recover. Without Lin Mo, what would be the use of all this.

On the contrary, Lu Bu firmly believed that as long as Lin Mo came back, no matter the three counties, the thirteen counties would be able to fight back sooner or later.

"Lu Bu, so, you are here just to get back your daughter and son-in-law, right?" Cao Cao didn't reply directly to Lu Bu's attractive offer, but asked Lu Bu instead.

Just this question made Jia Xu's heart sink, it's not good, Cao Cao wanted to separate the soldiers.

This question seemed to be asked casually, but if Lu Bu answered yes, Cao Cao would definitely accuse him of only caring about his own family. Could it be that all the soldiers who died in Xiao Guan deserved to die, so as to disturb the morale of the army.

And based on his understanding of Lu Bu, he couldn't think of so much at all, and now that his mind is confused, he must answer every question.

He really wanted to step forward to stop the reminder, but reason told him not to move.

If Lin Mo was really in Cao Cao's hands, Lu Bu would definitely not be able to defend Xuzhou. Even if he had the confidence to single out Cao Cao's entire adviser group, he, Lu Bu, might not be able to obey him.

That being the case, it is better not to speak, so as not to leave a bad impression on Cao Cao.

As fate dictates, who can guarantee what will happen tomorrow? Maybe he, Cao Cao, will be his next master.

Without Lin Mo's Lv Bu army, no matter how large the territory and how many troops there are, it is just a piece of meat on Cao Cao's chopping board.

"Yes! Let me go, I'll give you three counties!" Lu Bu almost blurted out.

Sure enough, Cao Cao's reaction was exactly as Jia Xu had guessed, and he sighed heavily, "Lv Bu, you came all the way from Pengcheng with this group of cavalry under your command, and you only know about your daughter and son-in-law. Those soldiers who died fighting for you in Xiaoguan today?
They also have wives and children!I died fighting for you but didn't even have a tombstone. I know, I'm afraid I will regret that I followed the wrong person! "

"fart!"

When Lu Bu heard this, his beard and beard were furious, and his blood boiled. He pointed at Cao Cao on the gate and cursed: "Don't talk nonsense, the brothers who escaped from Xiaoguan have been resettled by me, hand them over quickly! "

Speaking of encounters on the battlefield, Lu Bu could beat Cao Cao to death a hundred times with just one arm.

But if you want to talk about lip service, unless you invite back Ruo Rong who has already gone to the Northern Kingdom, otherwise you can rely on Lu Bu, so isn't it up to Cao Cao?

Cao Cao wanted to strike while the iron was hot, and continued to shout: "What if I don't return your daughter and son-in-law today? Siege the city? I don't need to say more about the solid defense of Xiaoguan City, but you are actually going to fight for your daughter and son-in-law again." Take tens of thousands of lives, Lu Bu, you are not worthy to lead an army at all!

Soldiers under the Chengguan, listen up, Lu Bu is just a domestic slave of the three surnames, capricious, and doesn't care about the lives of his subordinates. Today he is determined to let you die here for the sake of two yellow-mouthed children. Where do you go? Bar! "

"Cao thief, Cao thief" Lu Bu was trembling with anger, his teeth were about to be crushed, and he wished he could fly to the city gate and stab Cao Cao hundreds of times, but he didn't know how to deal with this situation.

Xiao Guan was shrouded in the night, with those torches, Cao Cao couldn't clearly see the facial expressions of Lu Jun's cavalry.

However, he could imagine that at this moment, they must have terrified faces and anxious and anxious hearts. They were thinking in their hearts that Lu Bu, the master, is not worth our lives at all.

The morale of the army was slowly turbulent, then swayed continuously, and finally collapsed.

At that time, this army no longer has any combat capabilities. Dian Wei and his troops will be unstoppable like rolling thunderbolts striking rotten leaves.

Chen Gong, who is in the capital of Xuzhou, had a grudge against Lin Mo for a while.

Maybe it's because of the ignorance of literati since ancient times, or maybe it's because he was born too brightly, which aroused the desire for comparison deep in his heart. In short, he didn't have much intersection with Lin Mo.

It wasn't until Lin Mo became the new banner bearer in the battle of Anfeng, and he tried his best to turn the tide and turn the tide of the battle, that he was convinced.

Therefore, he was willing to take away his position as Lu Ying's chief counselor.

He rode his horse to Lu Bu's side, kept pace with him, and then reminded in a low voice: "Yunwen's prestige in the army is not much inferior to that of Wen Hou. Just your son-in-law."

Not just my son-in-law.
After being reminded by him like this, Lu Bu, who was in a state of confusion and out of breath, suddenly became enlightened.

He turned his head and glanced at the cavalry behind him, then looked at Cao Cao who was walking on the path of Xiao Guan, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly: "Cao Cao! Do you think Lin Yunwen is just my son-in-law? He is the brains of our army, yes The banner of the three armies is the hope of the soldiers!

You ask them if they would like to attack the city for Yunwen today! "

Cao Cao folded his hands on his chest, half-closed his eyes and let out a cold snort. Lin Mo is of course a great talent, but it is impossible for him to have the prestige in the army that would make soldiers risk their lives.

Among other things, none of the group of counselors under his command has this ability, not even Guo Fengxiao.

But in the next breath, a scene that left him dumbfounded appeared.

Thousands of cavalry behind Lu Bu shouted in unison: "We are willing to fight to the death for the Marquis of Lanling! We are willing to fight to the death for the Marquis of Lanling! We are willing to fight to the death for the Marquis of Lanling!"

A resounding cry hovered over Xiaoguan, which not only boosted the team's morale to the extreme in an instant, but also made Cao Cao, who didn't believe that counselors could build their prestige in the army, take two steps back.

how can that be!

The proclamation these people yelled, anyone could tell that it was not just to make it sound good. Cao Cao had no doubt that these people would be so stupid as to attack the city for Lin Mo.

Cao Cao, who originally intended to destroy Lu Bu's army, and then defeated Lu Bu with all his troops, couldn't help but gasped at this moment.

This kid is really a monster, how did he do it.
This is absolutely impossible just because he is Lu Bu's son-in-law!

Even at this moment, his heart began to feel uneasy.

He knew that Lu Bu still had 7 to [-] people on hand, and it was only these cavalry who rushed to Xiaoguan first, and there must be a large group of infantry behind them.

If all of this is really here, with Lu Bu's reckless character, maybe he will really attack the city.

He had just obtained Xiaoguan, and the soldiers were exhausted, so what if he launched a strong attack in a daze.

It is impossible for the army led by Xiahou Dun to fly over from Xuchang at this moment.

Of course, there are 3 to [-] people in the pass, so the probability of holding it is still very high, but if you are not afraid of [-] people, you are afraid of the eventuality. Once the city is broken, you will definitely have no way out.

He regretted that he shouldn't have stimulated Lu Bu like that.

They must now firmly believe that Lin Mo is in Xiaoguan City, the problem is that he is not there!

Suddenly, he realized that Lin Mo was indeed not in Xiaoguan. After he returned to Pengcheng, he found that Lu Bu had brought someone, and he would definitely come to stop him.

Thinking about this point, I was relieved at first, and then I felt extremely annoyed. Just now, I felt a little fear because of this man Lu Bu!
"Then you attack the city!" Cao Cao left the sentence and went straight down the city gate.

Lu Bu pulled up Fang Tian's painted halberd to wave his hand, and Chen Gong hurriedly reminded, "It must be done! Marquis Wen, how can the cavalry attack the city before our infantry arrives? Stay safe and don't be impatient. Wait until the infantry arrives, and then wait for the cavalry to attack the city." Make a decision!"

Lu Bu glanced at Xiao Guan's four-foot-long city, then at the cavalry behind him, and snorted coldly, "Let that thief Cao live a little longer."

Then he asked, "What time is it?"

Chen Gong raised his eyes to look at the dim moon in the sky, and said: "It's past Haishi."

Haishi
There is still an hour until Zishi, Lu Bu stabbed the lower sky painting halberd again, folded his hands on his chest, closed his eyes to rest his mind, and waited quietly.
