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

Chapter 198 197 This time, we must drive Lu Bu into a desperate situation
Although the Central Plains War was won, but because of Guo Jia's grand strategy, Xun Yu has been tossing a lot during this period of time.

First of all, he has to rush to manufacture a large number of curved plows and keel waterwheels and put them in the Kanto area to restore production and reproduce the Guanzhong granary.

Although the efficiency of farming and land reclamation has been greatly improved, the livelihood of the people in Guanzhong has long been in decline, and there are not one out of ten people, so the issue of population transfer is involved here.

How much to transfer, where to transfer from, how to transfer, these all need detailed research, and this task alone is enough for Xun Yu to have a headache.

In addition, the autumn harvest is over, and the harvest in the Central Plains has indeed been greatly improved, but the expenditure is also extremely troublesome.

The food, grass and ordnance bills owed by the major families during the Central Plains War were about to be paid back. The armor rate is now less than [-]%, and it is time to start improving. At the same time, because thousands of horses were captured, the concentrate feed is also a huge sum. overhead.

Adding up all the bits and pieces of work, the waist of this humble minister is about to be broken.

For a long time, Xun Yu came and went in a hurry in Xuchang City, with a sad face.

So, seeing him walk in with a smile like a spring breeze, Cao Ang couldn't help but stop to hear what good news it was.

"Yuan Tan unexpectedly invited Lu Bu to Qingzhou to help him seize the throne. Now that Lu Bu has made a request, as soon as Yuan Tan agrees, he should start heading north.

According to what he said, only 2 people were brought to Lu Bu this time, and the specific list of generals accompanying the army has not yet been released. "

"Hahaha"

Cao Cao laughed loudly, and excitedly slapped his thighs continuously, "I can't help it at last, but I never expected to go to the North Kingdom in this way, it's okay, the final effect is the same."

After speaking, his smile froze suddenly, and he frowned and said, "Where is Lin Mo, is he going north with the army?"

"I didn't say it, but I should go north." Xun Yu shook his head.

"The others are not important, this kid has to be transferred from Xuzhou so we can do it." Cao Cao breathed a long sigh of relief, the only person in the entire Lu camp that he could be afraid of was Lin Mo.

Especially before Hanoi settled down, there was always an inexplicable fear of Lin Mo. After all, his three tips before made people's scalp tingle.

The conversation between the two made Cao Ang very confused. The news that Yuan Tan joined forces with Lu Bu to deal with Yuan Shang sounds absurd enough, but it is reasonable when you think about it. The question is, where did they get this kind of confidential information?
You must know that the two-party alliance, especially this type of alliance, has a very high degree of secrecy. Usually, envoys will be sent to discuss in secret first, and the two sides will reach an agreement on the interests before they will actually start to leave.

Others could only tell what happened when Lu Ying actually pulled the soldiers out of Xuzhou and went north to Qingzhou.

But right now, Xuzhou has not moved, they already know such details, even have a preliminary understanding of the deployment of soldiers and horses, I am afraid that the generals, this is unreasonable.

"Father, could it be that our people have already penetrated into Lu Ying?" This was the only reasonable explanation Cao Ang could think of.

"It should be said that there is something wrong with them internally." Cao Cao leaned back in the handsome chair and fiddled with his short beard triumphantly.

Hearing this, Cao Ang couldn't bear it anymore, and took the bamboo slips from Xun Yu's hand to check.

Soon, he fell into silence. It was him. Then he frowned and said in a deep voice, "Father, is it believable?"

"I've thought about this matter seriously. Although the Northern Kingdom was defeated in the Central Plains War, Lu Bu failed to plunder too many gains. I heard that there are only more than 1000 horses left in Xuzhou, and our strength has greatly increased in the first battle. The chances of winning In the end, Lu Bu was still overwhelmed.

Moreover, among the prefects of the six counties of Xuzhou, apart from their own people, they also pulled Jia Xu up, and even Ruo Rong was given to the prefect of Langya, but Chen Deng had to get a prefect of Anfeng to serve as the prefect of Xuzhou. First family, he couldn't swallow this breath.

Third, Anfeng is the land of scholars in Huainan. I had someone investigate it. Since the prefect, the meritorious officer, and the master are all scholars in Huainan, Chen Deng has been completely excluded. If this continues, the Chen family will be kicked out sooner or later. Even if Chen Deng could bear it, Chen Gui couldn't bear it if he came out of the top of Chu. "

Cao Cao said these words very proudly.

Obviously, he thought that Lin Mo was inferior to him in controlling the family, otherwise he would not have pushed the number one family in Xuzhou to the opposite of him.

Xun Yu took the words and said with a faint smile: "There are also Song Xian and the others. As Lu Bu's starting team, after many years, they are still the captain. , Gan Ning, Xu Sheng and others."

"It's still forbidden!"

Cao Cao interrupted abruptly, with a look of grief on his face, "I treat him so confidingly, but he betrays me and joins Lu, this thief blames me."

At this point, Cao Ang probably understood the cause and effect of this incident.

Chen Deng was marginalized by Lu Ying, and as the number one family in Xuzhou, he couldn't accept this situation at all, especially since someone like Ruo Rong could become the prefect of Langya.

However, the interweaving of these things made Chen Deng's surrender much more reasonable.

Or, he is not surrendering, he thought about selling Lu Bu a few years ago, and this is just the second time to sell.

The difference is that the first time was because he looked down on Lu Bu, and the second time was entirely for the benefit and future of the Chen family.

Chen Deng is now Anfeng's prefect. If he is an internal response, it will be easy to take Anfeng.

An Anfeng, of course, can't make Cao Cao excited enough to slap his thigh. The problem is that if Anfeng is lost, Jiujiang and Lujiang will open up, and they can take advantage of the trend.

And Lu Bu led his troops to the north, and no matter how he tried to save them, he was too far away.

Whether he can directly attack Xuzhou with a big victory depends on the situation, but once the backyard catches fire, Lu Bu will definitely not have much achievements in the North Kingdom. This matter can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

"When is father going to do it?" Cao Ang also became excited. No wonder Xun Yu was so happy. Winning the three counties in Huainan would relieve his pressure to a great extent.

"Don't worry, it's still early. We have to wait until we take Hanoi, and when Lu Bu and the Northern Kingdom are confronted and unable to withdraw, we will come later."

Cao Cao's eyes turned cold, and he raised his right hand to shake the air, "This time, we must drive Lu Bu into a desperate situation and kill him with one blow!"

Compared with before, Cao Cao has more patience.

Although it is impossible to be infallible as long as the soldiers are used, the battle can only be achieved when the few things at hand are stabilized.

For example, in the matter of winning Hanoi, if Lin Mo could really pave the way for Zhang Yang in advance, then he really didn't dare to think about the three counties of Huainan again.

Moreover, even if Hanoi is taken down and Zhang Yang is beheaded, it is still necessary to make sure that Lu Bu has handed over Beiguo and cannot withdraw immediately. This is the best time.

Because of this timing, the chances of Chen Deng feigning surrender will be extremely low. He should not be so stupid as to want to accompany Lu Bu on the road together.

Cao Cao twisted his sore neck, looked up at the dome, and murmured: "Zhang Yang. Is it Lin Mo's suspicious strategy, or does he really have such superb skills, or it's up to Sima Yi to throw stones to ask the way."

Yuan Tan has already agreed to send [-] war horses here, and he will also provide all the food and grass, but the iron ore business is not enough.

He explained that the armor wearing rate of his trilogy is only [-]% now, and Yuan Shang has cut off the supplies, so he will not be able to make up for a while, but he is willing to owe it first.

Lu Bu was a little rambling, feeling that Yuan Tan was too petty.

He probably forgot that at the beginning, he didn't dare to open his mouth like a lion. Apart from other things, how much does it cost for three thousand war horses?

And in the current environment of war and flames, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it.

"Okay, Mr. Yuezhang, isn't our ultimate goal the Northern Kingdom? Why are you plotting with him about these three melons and two dates?" Lin Mo joked with a smile.

Lu Bu thought about it, it seemed reasonable, shrugged his shoulders, and said: "Okay, Wen Yuan and Wen Xiang are already on their way, and the generals are also preparing according to your previous arrangement, is there anything else that needs to be handed over? "

"When Uncle Zhang arrives, I'll just tell him. Others."

Lin Mo thought for a while and finally shook his head, "It's gone."

Going north this time, the defense of the entire Xuzhou and Huainan will have to undergo huge adjustments.

First of all, when Lu Bu and Lin Mo went north, Zhang Liao was naturally in charge of the whole plan. Now that Jiangdong had suffered two defeats, their vitality was seriously injured, and they no longer needed the same defense as before.

Lin Mo transferred Zhang Liao and Xu Sheng back, Gan Ning and Yu Jin were both good, and with Lu Su as a think tank, the problem would not be too big.

Now the biggest defensive points are Xiaoguan and Anfeng. Compared with the two, of course Anfeng will be under more pressure.

Because the city of Xiaoguan is already solidly defended, and it is where Cao Jun’s food and roads are located, Cao Jun can be kept out by guarding this point. Here, let Gao Shun lead [-] soldiers, with Zhang Xiu and Wei Yue, and at the same time It is not too much to say that the think tanks Chen Gong and Xu Shu are monolithic.

The disadvantage is that there is no cavalry, but the camp is there, and here is the main defensive battle. This configuration is very scientific.

As for Anfeng, which was originally guarded by Chen Deng with [-] soldiers and horses, but the fortifications here are not comparable to Xiaoguan, so it needs to be taken care of.

Lin Mo's arrangement was to let the fiercest Zhang Liao go, and at the same time bring Yan Liang and Wen Chou with him, with [-] troops. At that time, he would also send [-] cavalry from the Northern Kingdom.

Calculated in this way, Anfeng has [-] soldiers and horses. If there are strong generals, there will be strong generals, and if there are cavalry, there will be cavalry.

Of course, this is where the Huainan barrier is after all, and a heavyweight strategist is needed to sit in it. Of course, it is Jia Wenhe, the most capable poisoner.

Therefore, only Lin Mo, Zhao Yun and Xu Sheng who were transferred back from Guangling were the ones who could really go north with Lu Bu.

In fact, this is not to underestimate the North Country, it is also a helpless choice. The most basic requirement for expansion must be to give priority to stabilizing your own backyard.

Moreover, this time is completely different from the previous ones. In the past, they had to wait and see Cao Cao to ensure that he would not make trouble before they dared to expand.

But this time, Lin Mo chose to strike first, which is equivalent to giving Cao Cao the right to choose. From a strategic point of view, he has fallen into a passive state.

But it’s impossible not to fight. Xuzhou’s strategic position is not as good as that of Yanzhou and Yuzhou. They can expand in three directions: west, south, and north. They can only go north and up.

To be honest, among the three pillars of the Central Plains, Lu Fang is the weakest family. If they don't take advantage of their civil strife to make more money, they will only slow down one step at a time.

"Husband, Qingzhou is very windy, and the wind is still biting cold after the beginning of spring. You should wear this robe with you." In Lin's mansion, Lu Lingqi thoughtfully put on a snow-white cloak for Lin Mo. The velvet collar made people feel warm. It is very comfortable.

"You take care of yourself at home."

Lin Mo smiled knowingly. Zhao'er gave him a cloak earlier, and Ling'er was probably a little bit worried about it. This time, she asked him to put on the cloak she gave her.

But looking at the workmanship, it is obvious that Lu Lingqi did not weave it by herself.

"When will I go back to the North Country?" Lu Lingqi sighed, her eyes full of reluctance.

"I will try to come back within a year."

The purpose of this trip is to eat Qingzhou, Jizhou and Youzhou at least for a year, which is already very conservative.

If I want to achieve the stability that is really used by me, I can't do it in two or three years.

Seeing Lu Lingqi's reluctance to leave, Lin Mo couldn't help hugging the princess directly, holding the fragrance soft in his arms, feeling the collision of the mountain peaks, and prepared to take practical actions to say goodbye.

Never thought that Lu Lingqi would struggle to get away, and shook her head with her mouth flattened.

"what happened?"

"The doctor said that we can't have intercourse in the near future." Lu Lingqi lowered her bright eyes and bit her lip.

"Why?"

Lin Mo's reaction was half a beat slow, and then his eyes lit up, and he said in surprise, "Ling'er, do you have it?"

Lu Lingqi's rare cheeks flushed and she nodded.

"Hahaha, I'm going to be a father soon!" Lin Mo excitedly picked up Lu Lingqi and twirled it around twice, frightened her to pat him quickly, fearing that he might frighten the child in his stomach.

This is really a great thing, Lin Mo couldn't help dancing with excitement.

With children, this Lin Mansion truly feels like a home.

Home is a safe haven, and home is the oil lamp that illuminates you when you are tired.

He just looked forward to it for a while, and when he returned home after a busy day, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth when he saw the warm picture of Lu Lingqi in Naiwa.

"Does Master Yue know about this?" After a long time, Lin Mo carefully put his arms around Lu Lingqi and asked gently.

Lu Lingqi who was in his arms shook her head, "The doctor just left."

"Then let's go and tell Mr. Yuezhang, he must be very happy."

Lin Mo took Lu Lingqi all the way to the General's Mansion to share the happy event with Lu Bu. Of course, Lu Bu was also crazy, and ran to announce the good news to Yan Shi and Diaochan like a child, and made the young couple happy.

Then, Lu Lingqi was asked not to live in the Lin Mansion anymore, but to move back to the General's Mansion, where Yan and Diao Chan would take care of her personally. For Lu Bu, he also hoped that the day when his grandson would marry and share the family relationship soon.

This idea has been haunting his mind for many years.

"Good good!"

Lu Bu rubbed his hands excitedly, "Don't worry, Ling'er, I will calm down Beiguo as soon as possible, and try to let Yunwen stay by my side when the child is born, and finally make a difference for the Lu family, haha, I'm happy today, I want to drink three hundred cups!" "

Uh. Spending branches and leaves for the Lu family, why does this sound so awkward, you really think of me as a son-in-law, right? The child will be surnamed Lin in the future.

The old father-in-law was so happy, Lin Mo can say anything, as long as you like it.

On this day, Yan Shi and Diao Chan gathered around Lu Lingqi and asked about some details about pregnancy protection, while Lu Bu took Lin Mo seriously and said that it is absolutely impossible to have a house at this time, I can't help it, don't you still have a maid, sure.

Look, the old father-in-law is much more sensible than Linger, knowing that it is impossible for a man in this era to not have three wives and four concubines.

"By the way, you are pregnant with Liujia now, so let's let go of the red sleeve move." Of course, the red sleeve move is also very important, but it can't be more important than your own child.

At night, Lin Mo gently instructed Lu Lingqi.

"Don't worry, I'm prepared." Lu Lingqi said calmly.

"What to prepare?"

"On the surface, that girl Zhao'er is gentle and deceitful, but when I asked her to start a few newcomers, she was very ruthless."

Ah, what do you mean, Guo Zhao is a bit bitch, isn't he?
It doesn't seem right, the word bitch is inappropriate, it should be said that the city is very deep.

"So, you want to train her to take over?"

"I see that she should be able to get started. My husband has spent so much money on the red sleeve, so we can't let it go." Lu Lingqi was distressed and invested like a hostess.

"Also."

Thinking about it seriously, Queen Guo in history is not easy, she can even bring down Zhen Mi.

The most important thing is that she should be more loyal to herself. Anyone can take over the management of Hongxiu Zhao's bright side, but the cultivation of the dark line must be her own family. This point has not changed from the beginning to the end.

This night, of course, Lin Mo didn't dare to touch Lu Lingqi. In fact, he was afraid that he would dishonestly touch her stomach when he fell asleep, so he slept in separate beds.

It's a bit difficult, I want to talk to Zhao'er about taking over Hongxiu Zhao in detail, but I feel that I should go now, lest Lu Lingqi will be sad if she finds out, so she should bear with it.

Zhang Liao and Xu Sheng finally arrived, and the army could set off as scheduled.

Before going on the expedition, Lin Mo had one last thing to do, which was to find Zhang Liao.

"Uncle, this dark thread is known to no one other than our own family members, it is of great importance, we must be careful not to let the wind leak.

Also, please remember, uncle, this secret line can only be waiting for information, and you must not take the initiative to contact. "

Zhang Liao held the silk cloth in his hand and nodded, "Sure enough, I didn't expect you to have such an arrangement. Don't worry, I have a new understanding recently. As long as Cao Jun dares to come, I will Let him look for teeth all over the place!"

Well, I haven't seen you for so long, Liao Shen's style has not changed.

Lin Mo shook his head helplessly, and in the end he could only say: "Uncle always draws inferences from one instance, and is well versed in the art of war. My nephew can't catch up with you, but when you arrive in Anfeng, if you encounter Cao Jun's attack, you must remember that you must use Jia Known as relying on.

His talent is far above mine. "

"Oh?"

Zhang Liao became interested, "Then I'm going to ask for advice."

It has been two years since Jia Xu came to Xuzhou with Zhang Xiu, and Zhang Liao had almost never dealt with him. This time fighting side by side, he won such high praise from Lin Mo, and he immediately became very interested.

Interesting, very interesting.

　Ladies and gentlemen, do you have a monthly pass? Please ask for a monthly pass. I'm in a hurry.
