Xiliang Iron Cavalry

Chapter 595: Take Luoyang

"Humble job is willing to go." Lu Bu said with clasped fists.

Zhao Yun nodded and said: "General Lu is a powerful general, known to all armies, this battle will surely bring Sishui Pass into our hands, and when the army wins, General Lu will be the first to contribute."

Lu Bu clasped his fists to promise, his face glowed with excitement, no matter how powerful the enemy was, whether he relied on a fortified city or had a strong army in his hands, in Lu Bu's heart, he had always praised and feared these two words, no matter how powerful the enemy was, he would always Dare to face up to difficulties and enter the enemy line alone.

After so many years, Lu Bu also understands his value. He can only be a fierce general who rushes to kill on the battlefield, not a general with a strategy. He is already very happy to be able to go out with the army, and he doesn't have so many extravagant wishes. Yes, now Lu Bu already has a family in Chang'an, and the current efforts are to make great contributions in the future and seal his wife and son.

After the crowd dispersed, Guo Jia left Lu Bu behind. On the battlefield, Lu Bu was a rare and fierce general. Being able to control the situation on the battlefield to a certain extent did not mean that he was a reliable general.

"General Lu's plan to attack Sishui Pass?" Guo Jia asked.

Although Lu Bu thought he was a very qualified old man in the army, he didn't dare to offend Guo Jia. He clasped his fists and said, "Master, this general will lead the soldiers under his command to attack them by surprise and kill the guard at Sishui Pass. When the gate is closed, take Sishui Pass and lay the foundation for the army to attack Luoyang."

Lu Bu was very satisfied with his tactic. Jia Rong used this tactic when he captured Danhanshan Wangting. With a small force, he attracted the opponent's main force, and then the army entered the city.

Guo Jia said with a smile: "General Lu's strategy is probably used when the lord attacked Danhan Mountain back then?"

Lu Bu nodded in agreement.

"The army of the princes is not comparable to the soldiers on the grassland. Although the soldiers of the princes look weaker, once they rely on the city, their combat effectiveness is many times stronger than that of the Xianbei on the grassland. Xianbei, the reason why he has not been able to really enter the hinterland of the Han Dynasty, if General Lu goes there with this plan, he will not only startle the snake, but also return in a big defeat."

Lu Bu looked a little disdainful, but he still tried his best to maintain a respectful appearance. In fact, Lu Bu was not arrogant, but he looked down on the counselors behind him from the bottom of his heart.

"The commander of Sishui Pass is Cao Cao's general General Jin. This man has a lot of strategy in battle and is good at attacking and defending the city. He built Sishui Pass like a single piece of iron. People and merchants who enter and exit will be strictly interrogated. Don't say it is Leading the soldiers to attract troops outside the pass, seeing soldiers appearing, Yu Jin's first order was to close the city gate tightly and not allow anyone to enter or leave, does General Lu want to use his cavalry to attack Sishui Pass?"

Lu Bu was secretly startled, he is a military general who doesn't like to think, how could he consider these things, always look at problems from his own point of view, and hurriedly said: "From the perspective of a military advisor, what should we do?"

"Even if a city is fortified, how can it be invincible if someone in it welcomes the enemy in? No matter how tight the defense is, there will still be places that are missed. As long as you find the key points, you can definitely pass the water at the lowest cost. Take it." Guo Jia stared at Lu Bu and said.

Lu Bu's eyes lit up, and after thinking about it, he lowered his head and said, "Military Master, but I don't know the guards inside the pass, how can I order them to open the city gate?"

"The general must not have listened to the lectures in the daily military class of the Xiliang Army. After returning home, he copied what the other generals wrote down five times." Guo Jia said.

"Don't say it's five times, as long as we can conquer Sishuiguan, even ten times, I'm willing." Lu Bu said.

"What I said to copy five times is not as simple as punishing the general, but to let the general remember that any small mistake on the battlefield will lead to the death of the soldiers under his command. The general has followed King Liang for many years and has experienced hundreds of battles. I won’t be enlightened at all,” Guo Jia reprimanded.

"Let me tell General Lu another important news. General Ma Chao also proposed to General Zhao to be the vanguard of the army, and General Zhao also secretly nodded in agreement. However, General Lu took the lead to stand up today. General Zhao is not good at refusing. I'm afraid you will fail. Afterwards, Pioneer will change hands and become Ma Chao, and when the time comes to take the credit for Sishui Pass, it will belong to the Ma family."

"Please teach me, sir. The great kindness will be remembered in my heart. In the future, if my master asks me, Lu Bu will definitely not refuse." When Ma Chao was mentioned, Lu Bu immediately panicked.

"There are many ways, such as secretly ordering soldiers to turn into merchants, taking the opportunity to sneak into Sishui Pass, opening the closed gate, cavalry rushing in, and great things can be achieved." Guo Jia stroked his beard and said.

Lu Bu's eyes lit up, he didn't expect the strategy to be so simple, and the enemy would not notice it.

"General Lu, don't panic, such a strategy is useless against a general as cautious as Yu Jin. Before leaving, the lord gave me a trump card, which can help the general win the Sishui Pass, and maybe capture Yu Jin alive. "Guo Jia said.

"Oh, what's the trump card?"

Guo Jia said softly: "After listening for so long, it's time to come out? General Wang."

Wang Yue laughed loudly and said: "Military division, humble post is polite." Wei Wei cupped his hands, showing no respect at all, Wang Yue is Jia Rong's army, and if there is a team like assassination in his hands that fights against the lone wolf soldiers, there will naturally be some shelves.

"General Wang?" Lu Bu looked at Wang Yue and questioned. Since Wang Yue joined the Xiliang Army, he rarely showed his face in front of everyone, and Lu Bu also vaguely heard that Wang Yue was in charge of an elite soldier, like a lonely soldier. A wolf-like existence.

Wang Yue said with a smile: "It's the old man. Does General Lu have any doubts, or doubt that the old man is not capable of taking Sishui Pass?"

Lu Bu is naturally very familiar with Wang Yue. When he was in Luoyang, Wang Yue tried to assassinate Jia Rong and almost succeeded. People feel ashamed, but Lu Bu still admires Wang Yue's martial arts. On the battlefield, Wang Yue is not as good as him. Once he is singled out, he will definitely suffer.

I don't know what Jia Rong will think when he knows that Lu Bu has such thoughts.

"Don't dare." Lu Bu cupped his fists and said, no matter what, Wang Yue came to help him.

Wang Yue doesn't care how outsiders look at him. Now he is satisfied. In his lifetime, he will serve as an important general in the Xiliang Army. His status is not inferior to that of Lu Bu, who initially followed Jia Rong. Assassination, this big card, is directly under Jia Rong's command.

"I don't know what strategy General Wang has?" Lu Bu asked.

"This matter is a secret and should not be passed on lightly. General Lu will know by then."

Lu Bu curled his lips disapprovingly, feeling a little displeased with Wang Yue's betrayal.

In the dark night, you can't see your fingers. The patrolling soldiers who closed the water gate cautiously stared outside the gate. They patrolled back and forth without missing any place, because Yu Jin always came to watch from time to time. There was a Zhonglang general the day before yesterday. Because they secretly slept while guarding, they were dismissed by Yu Jin. They are just a group of soldiers. If they neglect their duties, they will not be dismissed from office, but beheaded directly.

"Zhang San, why do we patrol like this all day long? It is impossible for the Xiliang army to attack us, and the general has repeatedly ordered not to miss any patrols. Now other soldiers are doing Qianqiu Dao in the camp. It's a dream, oh."

"Sigh, I have no skills, so I can only patrol. When you are promising, you don't have to stay here. Didn't the general say that the Xiliang army is extremely cunning, and they may call at any time, so be careful. Be on guard, otherwise the higher-ups will blame us, and we will be the ones who are unlucky." Zhang San said.

The two soldiers walked and chatted, and quickly inspected the area they were in charge of.

"Let's sit down and rest for a while, it's a long night, let's get through it slowly," said the soldier.

Zhang San agreed, and the two of them sat under the battlements. It was summer, and the refreshing breeze kept blowing, which was very comfortable, even more comfortable than sleeping in a tent.

Two dark shadows appeared in the pass, silently, also wearing the clothes of Cao Jun soldiers.

The black shadow nodded towards the further distance, and walked slowly towards Zhang San's direction.

Zhang San looked back by chance, and when he saw the soldiers coming not far away, he hurriedly reminded: "Get up quickly, someone is coming, maybe it's the soldiers sent by the general to patrol, who were hit by them." If we don't, it's over for both of us."

The two soldiers stood up straight, Zhang San shouted: "Which department are you two soldiers from? Why are you walking around in the middle of the night? Do you have the general's badge?"

"Of course, the general sent us here. You rest, and we will leave after looking at it." The soldier said kindly.

Just as Zhang San was about to sit down and rest, he suddenly realized something was wrong. If these two people were really sent by the general, how could he just sit and watch them rest here? I'm afraid they would have been yelling and beating and scolding. The soldiers at the bottom are the most worthless.

"Zhang San, what's the matter?"

"Something's wrong, since it was sent by the general, why did you let us rest?" Zhang San said softly.

"It's because you think too much, maybe the general saw that our patrol was very hard, so he acquiesced." The soldier reassured.

Zhang San nodded, but the suspicion in his heart has not been resolved.

The two soldiers sent by the general to patrol suddenly rushed to the soldier's side, a dagger flashed out of their hands, and cut the soldier's throat.

Zhang San was always on guard. After seeing the soldiers' movements, he immediately yelled. The loud voice was very abrupt in the quiet night.

The soldier who closed the door not far away shouted, "What's going on?"

"It's okay, I fell and it hurt me to death."

"Be careful, make a fuss, let the general know, punishment is inevitable."

Quiet was restored again, but this area fell into the hands of two soldiers. After hastily disposing of the corpses, they turned off the swaggering patrols.
