The Strongest Lu Bu's Sweeping Thousands of Armies

Chapter 406: You Can't Get Tiger Sons
Lü Bu led the army to Lumenting, where they were stationed only one mile away from Cao's army that night, and there was no intention of attacking at all.

At night, Lu Bu ordered the soldiers to light bonfires in the barracks. Looking from the hills near Lumen Pavilion, the bonfires in the barracks were connected into a piece, which contrasted with the stars in the night sky, as if they were inlaid on the night-shrouded earth. There are countless stars.

Ever since Lu Bu came here, Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun had been on guard all the time, not daring to relax even for a moment.

Standing on the hill, looking at the place where the Xuzhou army was stationed, Cao Ren said to Xiahou Dun, "Yuan Rang, go and rest. I'll come and watch tonight. If there's anything unusual, I'll tell you right away."

"Zixiao is the general, how can there be any reason why the general is watching on the mountain, but I went to rest?" Xiahou Dun said: "It's better for Zixiao to rest, I'm here, don't you feel relieved?"

"Yuan Rang is here, of course I don't worry." Cao Ren replied: "It's just that Yuan Rang is very brave. If Lu Bu comes, you still have the strength to fight, but I am not his opponent. Instead of me going to rest, raise your feet." It's better for Yuan Rang to rest if he loses his energy. When Lu Bu arrives, there will be someone who can deal with it."

When it comes to martial arts, Xiahou Dun is indeed much stronger than Cao Ren.

When Cao Ren said this, Xiahou Dun frowned slightly: "In terms of martial prowess, I am no match for Lv Bu even if there are three or five. It is really unnecessary to decide who will rest because of this. I think it is better for the soldiers to make preparations early. It's safer to be on guard against Lu Bu."

Lu Bu once fought against dozens of Cao Jun generals with his own strength, including Xiahou Dun.

The few people he picks and kills are all ordinary in martial arts, but there are quite a few people like Xiahou Dun who won the three armies that day.

Cao Ren sighed softly: "I really don't understand why God favored Lv Bu so much. He was already in the middle age, and his bravery would decline a little with each passing day. But he happened to come back overnight after the battle of Xiapi. Back when I was young, today's bravery is indeed beyond our ability to deal with."

Xiahou Dun's expression was also very bad.

When Cao Ren sighed, the gloomy Xiahou Dun didn't say anything.

The two of them had already led the soldiers to Lumenting to make arrangements, and waited for Lu Bu to arrive before giving them a head-on blow.

But when Lu Bu really came, Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun felt endless pressure.

Facing Lu Bu, the God of Killing, even fierce generals like Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren would feel heavy pressure.

In order to beware of Lu Bu, Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren didn't feel sleepy until late at night.

Lu Bu wanted to sleep, but the generals and advisers who came here with the army were still gathered in his tent.

Everyone learned that he intended to ride alone into Cao Jun the next day, and they came here to dissuade him from doing so.

After listening to everyone's dissuasion, Lu Bu asked them, "Can you let me tell you about my plan?"

Lu Bu had something to say, of course everyone would not speak again, all eyes were on him.

"I know what you are all worried about." Lu Bu said to the generals and counselors, "What you are worried about is that I failed to charge the battle and was either killed by Cao's army or captured by them."

"Since Marquis Chu understands, why do you still do that?" Zhou Yu said, "The soldiers are all looking at Marquis Chu. What should we do if something happens to Marquis Chu? More than [-] soldiers went out to defeat Cao Cao. , so as to change the situation in the Central Plains, and follow the Marquis of Chu to make achievements in the future. Once the Marquis of Chu is in danger, how can the soldiers not save him? Cao Cao is deceitful, and he must have made a plan to completely defeat our army while our army's morale is unstable... ..."

"So Gong Jin has no confidence in me." Lu Bu smiled slightly: "I thought you all believed in my bravery, that I would be able to fight back and forth among Cao's troops..."

"The Marquis of Chu is brave, of course we all know it." Xu Shu said: "But the Marquis of Chu also needs to understand that winning on the battlefield is not just about being brave. It also requires the deployment of the three armies, and the soldiers will move forward steadily."

Looking at the others, Lu Bu smiled, "I know you all have the same thoughts. You only know that I am too risky to do this, but you don't know why I do it."

"Of course we know that Marquis Chu's purpose is to show off his martial arts, to make Cao Jun fearful, and to raise the morale of our soldiers." Xu Shu said, "But what Gong Jin said is right. No, wouldn’t it put the soldiers in a situation where they must die.”

"Show martial arts?" Lu Bu smiled and shook his head: "It seems that none of you really understand me. Is a low-key and restrained person like me so eager to show martial arts?"

Lu Bu said that he was low-key and introverted, and everyone felt slanderous.

Ever since I joined Lu Bu, I have only seen him flamboyant everywhere, but I have never seen his low-key and restrained side.

Although he disagreed with Lu Bu's statement from the bottom of his heart, no one would say it in person.

After all, Lu Bu is their lord, if he exposes his statement face to face, it will really make him feel uncomfortable...

Everyone was silent, and Lu Bu continued: "Since the battle of Xiapi, Cao Cao has attacked Xuzhou many times. Although we have defeated his attacks every time, our real counterattack is now. If the soldiers are to defend Cao's army, they will There will be enough morale. But when I led them to attack Cao Cao, many soldiers were deeply worried."

Not only the counselors knew in their hearts that Lu Bu's statement was correct, but the generals also understood it very well.

Glancing at each other, everyone showed a trace of confusion and hesitation on their faces.

Zhou Yu said to Lu Bu: "The Marquis of Chu is indeed right, but we still feel..."

"Actually, what you said is correct." Lu Bu interrupted Zhou Yu. He stood up and looked around the crowd: "The soldiers are afraid of Cao Cao. If we don't dispel their worries, we will never get good results in the future war. Dispelling the worries is the best way to deal with Cao Cao." A good way is to let the soldiers see that they are not following the wrong person! Follow me, I can lead them to destroy Cao Cao, lead them to dominate the world, and let them achieve great feats!"

"Marquis Chu's idea is indeed right, but..." Zhou Yu still didn't quite agree with Lu Bu's statement.

His worry was actually everyone's worry, otherwise almost all the generals and counselors would not have come to dissuade Lu Bu.

Lu Bu interrupted him again: "I don't know if you have heard of a saying, if you don't enter the tiger's lair, you won't catch the tiger's cub! If I don't go, I will lose to Cao Cao sooner or later. If I go, as long as I can fight Let the soldiers see with their own eyes that their morale will be high from now on, so what else does Cao Cao have to fight me?"
