Wushuang Wudi of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 13 Defending Chang'an
Lv Bu won the first victory and returned to Chang'an City, but he didn't feel really proud. He knew that there was still a long way to go, and there were still many battles, internal affairs, military affairs, and foreign affairs. In this situation, make a big move and take the situation into your own hands!

"Come on! Call someone!" Lu Bu said, it was the intelligence team and the assassination team.

"Your task at this stage is to publicize the prestige of our army and the brutality of the enemy in Chang'an City, so that the people of Chang'an City can unite and fight the next attack of the Xiliang Army together!" Lu Bu said succinctly. ordered.

"No!" The team members received the order to do it.

As a result, discussions gradually increased on the streets of Chang'an City.

"Marquis Wen is invincible, and he will definitely defeat the people of Xiliang!"

"The Xiliang soldiers are very tough. If these scumbags enter Chang'an City, tell me, will we all have a good life? Everyone must unite and fight the enemy together!"

"This is the city of Chang'an for all the people of Chang'an! Do you want to fall into the hands of the devil again and live a miserable life where life and death are all in the hands of others? No! We must help each other and protect Chang'an City!"

"Have you forgotten Dong Zhuo's cruelty? Now his remnants are coming again! We will never let them enter Chang'an again!"

The crowd was raging, and everyone was very angry, and they all expressed that they must work hard to defend Chang'an City!
However, this is of course only an auxiliary means, not all of Lu Bu's big moves.

He came to the court again.

"Your Majesty, all pillars of the imperial court! Our army has achieved a great victory a few days ago, repelling the Xiliang Army and annihilating nearly ten thousand enemies. However, the enemy is still not at ease. They will come again and continue to besiege Chang'an City! The enemy army is still there More than 8 people, more than twice the size of our army!" Lu Bu said with a serious face.

"Here, Marquis Wen, what should I do?" The ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, all of whom were high officials with more than two thousand shi, were helpless at this moment, pinning all their hopes on Lu Bu.

"The situation is critical, we must gather all our forces, and all the people in the entire Chang'an City must be mobilized! Together, we will resist the cruel Xiliang soldiers! Resist these clamors to avenge Dong Zhuo, and to dismantle the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty!" Xiliang***!" Lu Bu threatened the officials while putting forward his own idea.

"The General's Mansion must coordinate all the troops, money, food, and weapons! To defend the city, we must also grasp the population situation in Chang'an City! Everyone, in times of crisis, it is even more important for us to unite as one! Chang'an City is Your Majesty's Chang'an City! It is all of us." The city of Chang'an! It must not fall into the enemy's hands!" Lu Bu delivered an impassioned speech, but the meaning was very obvious, to bring everything under his control!

"Soldiers, money, food, population, weapons! What are these? This is the capital of the princes! Since the imperial court has been abolished, I don't bother to take care of it! What is the right to appoint officials across the country, orders to princes, and the emperor's etiquette? , All of these, I don’t care! As for the San Gong Jiu Qing, I don’t care about them, what I want to grasp is the real lifeline!

Lu Bu had made a decision long ago, but he came here on purpose, as if he wanted to ask for everyone's opinions. This is wisdom, and the name is justified. The decision was jointly made by His Majesty and these three officials and nine ministers!It's not about making decisions on your own!
Since he decided to replace him and fight for hegemony in the world, the people from Xiliang attacked, so it was convenient for him to use tricks!
However, this time, Situ Wangyun couldn't sit still first, he was careless and underestimated!Lu Bu's actions are getting louder and louder, Huang Wan, the captain of Sili, has already expressed great dissatisfaction with Lu Bu!Other school lieutenants who were deprived of their military power also came to him and cried!
You are the one who controls the government!

"Fengxian! The imperial court operates with its own rules, how can it be easily changed! Especially in the face of the enemy, it is even more forbidden to do whatever it takes to cause chaos and give Xiliang soldiers an opportunity!" He first objected.

When the others heard it, they quickly responded.

Sili Xiaowei Huang Wan immediately jumped out and criticized this.

"Marquis Wen! The imperial court does not belong to Marquis Wen's family! It was wrong to seize the military power of the imperial army before! However, for the sake of His Majesty and the country, the pillars of the imperial court have tolerated you once before when foreign enemies came! What do you want to do now? Want to learn from Dong Zhuo Self-reliant?"

"That's right! Marquis Wen, think twice! Don't let Situ down!"

Taiwei Zhou Zhong, Sikong Yang Biao acted like an elder persuading a younger generation, they were bombarding, reminding Lu Bu who is the master of the court.

The rest of the big bureaucrats, including Da Si Nongshi Sun Rui, Tai Chang Zhong Fu, Da Hong He Zhou Huan, Tai Servant Lu Kui, Shao Fu Zhao Wen, Shang Shu Yang Zan, Guang Lu Xun Zheng Tai, Ting Wei Zhang Zhong, etc. Unwilling to be assigned power and status in their own hands by Lu Bu, they opposed it one after another.

Lu Bu couldn't help being stunned.

It seems that some underestimated these guys!Although, in front of Dong Zhuo, and historically in front of Li Jue and Guo Fan, they were submissive and had no power to resist.However, both Dong Zhuo and Li Jue and Guo Fan died in their hands!
I am careless!
Now, the court is still in the hands of Wang Yun, he is unwilling to let go, and seems to have become wary of himself!

He originally wanted to cut the mess with a sharp knife, but so far, he had no choice but to do it. The old foxes who have been around for many years will not be subdued by this vicious tiger!
It's better to hold on to the military power, and after defeating the Xiliang people, let's talk!After defeating the Xiliang people, they will take Chang'an City as the center and completely control the Guanzhong area!Then conquer the east and the west, and rule the world!
The Chang'an area or the Guanzhong area has a large population and fertile land. It is located in the center of the world. It is undoubtedly the foundation of the king's industry, which is better than the Central Plains, Hebei, and Jingzhou.

"Everyone! Please believe in my ability, Lu Fengxian! With the support of His Majesty and all the ministers, I will definitely defeat the Xiliang Army! Eliminate these rebels! Give me a bright future!" Lu Bu finally gave up his plan, "In the future I'll deal with you again!" He said in his heart.

But he didn't get nothing, he still rubbed his teeth and brought in some people. He sent these middle-level and grass-roots officials and officials who drove the system to the general's mansion to accept his leadership and work hard!As for what forces are behind these people, let's ignore it for now!

Lu Bu has left, and the next step is military preparations. This is the field that really determines life and death, and determines destiny!
The key point, of course, is to rectify the city defense.

The walls of Chang'an City are tall and majestic, but those who do not defend the city will dislike it for being taller and bigger.Lu Bu ordered the six generals to guard the walls of Chang'an City, divide them into areas, and take turns to guard them.At the same time, craftsmen were recruited, manpower was recruited, and the weak points of the city gates and towers were reinforced.

On the day of the great victory, it was the more than [-] logistics soldiers who went to bury the enemy's corpses.

Firstly, they were awed by Lu Bu's prestige and his great victory, but by the tens of thousands of corpses of Xiliang people.

Lu Bu's order to them was to prepare arrow feathers, rolling logs, rocks, boiling oil and other defensive equipment, and to be responsible for food and water for the troops and horses.

It is June, the summer is scorching, and the climate is extremely dry and hot. Sufficient salt and water are necessary for the defenders.

As for the more than ten thousand elites, Lu Bu did not send them to defend the city. These troops were his new force and his only mobile force.

The whole city of Chang'an was in full swing. The defenders, the logistics soldiers and the common people all worked together to make preparations for the defense of the city. There were countless sounds, whether it was the clanging of beating or the shouting of everyone. Converging into a song of laborers, the whole city seems to have become a large construction site under vigorous construction.

Defend Chang'an City!
Everyone is working hard for a common mission.

Liu Ye and Zhong Yao initially recognized Lu Bu's ability and prestige. Although they didn't say they wanted to join him, they also chose to participate in the defense of the city. This made Lu Bu a little overjoyed. With the support of Zhong Yao, an expert in internal affairs, the construction work seemed to be in order In order, the efficiency is greatly improved.And Liu Ye is a master of weapons and a rare inventor. As soon as Lu Bu told him his idea about the catapult, he led the craftsmen to devote themselves to the creation of the "Thunderbolt Chariot".

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun did not forget to continue to train their soldiers. Elites cannot be achieved overnight, they must be persistent and require long-term training.

Similarly, Lu Fang continued to replenish horses, recruit riders, and started training.

After all the orders were issued, Lu Bu became a little idle. He found Xun You, "How much do you know about Jia Xu?" "I met Marquis Wen, Jia Xu, he is a tough opponent, a very clever wise man!" Xun You replied that he was deeply jealous of Jia Xu.

"How does your wisdom compare to Jia Xu?" Lu Bu asked with great interest, "Yu, it's not as good as it!" He didn't know whether to be polite or to tell the truth.

"Haha! Jia Xu is serving as a military advisor in the Xiliang army, and they will come to the city soon. Gongda is not interested in fighting Jia Xu?" Lu Bu laughed.

"This..." Xun You was still very suspicious and refused to express his opinion.

"It's okay! Think about it carefully!" Lu Bu laughed, and went to work on his own affairs.If you don't go out, I, Lu Feng, will go out first, and it will still make him ashamed!Still beat Xiliang people all over the place looking for their teeth!Just wait and see!
