(Thanks to the Alliance! Zhao Wuxiu 2014, ufgw, it's great to be with him all the way.n∈)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Under the cliff west of Yuzhou Mountain Island, looking up, the white sails fell and the masts were like forests. These were nearly twenty ships of the Bohai Army.
Ma Han didn't just stay on this island casually, he had already made arrangements here.
Because of its special geographical location, Yuzhou Mountain Island is across the sea from Donghai County. In the early years, many criminals who committed crimes fled here and gathered together to endanger the place. However, the county soldiers lacked warships, and the terrain of this island was complex and difficult to wipe out, so they could not kill them. But what is speechless is that the robbers who could not be wiped out by the officers and soldiers were actually dealt with by the rioters.
The Yellow Turban Rebellion during the Zhongping period affected half of the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty. Qingzhou was the most influential, and Xuzhou, which was adjacent to Qingzhou, naturally suffered a strong impact. However, under the iron fist of Tao Qian and Xuzhou's powerful men, the Yellow Turbans of Xuzhou were quickly suppressed, and many remnants poured into Yuzhou Mountain Island to take refuge.
Naturally, the crossing of the river and the local snake will have conflicts of interest, and the two sides will fight openly and secretly. Over the years, a thief in a pile of sand will naturally not be able to defeat the half-army and half-bandit Yellow Turban, or be driven away or sunk to the sea, and this island becomes a place where the Yellow Turban Remnants are entrenched.
When Tao Qian was in power, he sent troops to sea to suppress bandits several times. The well-informed Yellow Turban thieves either drilled into the deep mountains or sailed out to sea to hide, and they returned in vain every time.
The Mi brothers were merchants and only wanted peace. Qu County Mi Mansion and Yuzhou Mountain Island were close to each other. In order to ensure the peace of the house, they made a secret discussion with the thieves on the island. Mi was responsible for providing information and reciprocating with the thieves, exchanging stolen goods for food and daily needs, while the thieves did not harass Qu County. Both sides were at peace.
Now, when Ma Han first came to Xuzhou, he knew about this and also saw the potential value of this island.
When Ma Han replaced Gongsun Du and took control of Liaodong, in order to ensure the smooth trade with the Mi family, he handed over the task of seizing Yuzhou Mountain Island to Guan Hai. Guan Hai handed over this important task to his cousin Guan Cheng.
Regarding Guan Cheng, in the impression of Ma Han, he was just a gloomy and taciturn young man, but he didn't know that Guan Cheng was also a person who left footprints in the history of the Three Kingdoms. He once brought a lot of trouble to Cao Cao's unification of Qingzhou, and even dispatched two generals: Le Jin and Li Dian, to jointly attack Guan Cheng, who was called a pirate, but failed to defeat him. This shows that Guan Cheng's command ability is more than Guan Hai, which is also the reason why Guan Hai handed over this matter to him.
Guan Cheng really lived up to expectations, with two tower ships and three hundred tower ships as his team. In just one year, he defeated and annexed the seven or eight Yellow Turban forces entrenched in Yuzhou Mountain Island, unified the island, and built it into a sub-base of the Bohai Army. Of course, the Yellow Turban Army was still the Yellow Turban Army. No matter who was in charge of Xuzhou, he would not tolerate another lurking prince force in his backyard.
After Ma Han fell this piece, he was left to Taishici and Guan Hai, and Donglai County provided food and fodder equipment. The Bohai Army provided ships and maintenance, and he never cared about it. However, after visiting the situation of the Yuzhou Mountain Island Base, he praised it very much and immediately promoted Guan Cheng to be the Sima of the Bohai Army. Many of his former yellow scarf leaders also had rewards. These "pirates" who had been wearing the banner of rioters and robbers suddenly felt like a regular army.
Guan Cheng admitted that their biggest hope at the moment is to be able to disclose their identities as soon as possible, return to the establishment, no longer be sneaky, but show them to others as the Dragon Wolf Navy.
Ma Han said only one thing: "If you have to last for another three years, you will be proud of the world."
With such a lurking army of pirates and a stable base, Ma Han is still in his own nest for thousands of miles away from Liaodong and Luoyang.
At this moment, Ma Han was sitting in the cabin. The desk was unfolding Lu Bu’s reply, but his eyes were not on the letter, but staring at Chen Dao’s neck: “Who did you move?”
Chen Dao said calmly: "If you ask, the general asked, he is just a villain with a harsh and introverted slut, and he is not worth mentioning."
Ma Han smiled, nodded, stopped talking, looked down at the letter, the more he looked, the deeper the smile became. Finally, he slapped: "Lu Bu! Lu Bu! What's the point of asking me to say you? I'm at the city, and you still have this idea... Is it the heart of a military general or the black sight of Yuan Shu?"
Le Jin, Guan Hai, Guan Cheng, Mi Fang, Tao Shang and others were all curious and couldn't help but stretch their necks.
When Ma Han saw the appearance of everyone, he shook his head and smiled, and handed the letter to Le Jin. Guan Hai, who was beside him, leaned over, glanced at it a few times, and then retracted - he was just a rough understanding of the words, and he really couldn't understand much.
Fortunately, Le Jin had already recited: "... In one battle, Quyang, iron arrow hole halberd, double blades left marks, and cloth across the world, never reached this point. In the second battle, the night fire was flowing, the night arrows splashed blood, and one strike was far away. I was the first person in the world to see the blood of Lu Bu. Both battles were rushed, and I wish I could not let go, which was a regret in my life. You are traversing Guanzhong, and I galloped through Xiadong, thousands of miles away, but I regretted not being able to make a decision. I am so sad that I have been sad. Now I heard that you have arrived, I am so happy. If I can decide again with you, I would be happy!"
Le Jin thought about it here, Chen Dao, Guan Hai, Guan Cheng, Mi Fang, and Tao Shang said in unison: "Lu Bu is going to face off with his lord?"
As soon as Ma Han nodded, before he could speak, Mi Fang stood up and said, "My Lord Ming is not allowed! Lu Bu is a tiger in the world, but he is brave but not heroic. This time he was surrounded by Yuan Gonglu, and his defeat is not far from being defeated. Ming Gong really does not need to fight with such dead people. He will not tell the story of the story, but will also attract discussions from others."
Ma Han reached out and pressed, signaled Mi Fang to sit down, and said to Le Jin: "There is still there below, I'll finish reading."
"Bu is willing to duel with you in the North Beach of Sishui, and you and I will show your power to Yuan. Before Liu Zhu's army, if you win, you will win three thousand Danyang elite soldiers, and if you lose, you will collect three thousand Danyang corpses!"
Guan Hai jumped up as soon as he heard this: "What an arrogant Lu Bu. He doesn't know that once we send troops and attack with Yuan's army, he will die without a place to bury?"
Guan Chengyin said, "No need to attack with Yuan's army, just our own troops will be enough to ruin Lu Bu."
Le Jin put down the letter, thought for a while, and shook his head: "It's not too late, it's not cost-effective."
Ma Han nodded and sighed: "Wen Qian said it well, it was too late, and I really wanted to give Lu Bu some color. Joining forces with Yuan Jun will not only have the chance to get back three thousand Danyang soldiers, but also give Lu Bu a blow... Unfortunately, he contacted Yuan Jun at this time. It was impossible to finalize this matter without ten or eight days. Lu Bu would attack Ji Ling in the latest three days. The first thing he suffered was the Danyang soldiers who were placed in the front camp by Ji Ling..."
Guan Hai stopped jumping, and it was really too late to calculate carefully.
"Another, it would not be cost-effective if we send troops ourselves. Lu Bu's Bingzhou Iron Cavalry is not easy to chew, and it is on other people's territory. Maybe it will be a loss-making situation." Ma Han said lightly, "We are here to save people, not to push more soldiers into the fire of war and take the lizards for Yuan Shu."
Guan Cheng was so shocked that he apologized: "Cheng said nothing, I hope the lord will forgive him."
Ma Wen waved his hand: "It's just a discussion, and you can speak freely, what's the crime?"
Le Jin suddenly said: "It is a good way to fight the generals, so it is better to have the last general do it. The lord can follow the previous proposal and lead elite troops to meet Chen Shuhe, Tao Bojun and three thousand Danyang soldiers to break through."
Le Jin fought against Lu Bu? Ma Han was stunned. Looking at the excited light flashing in the eyes of the little powerful general, he was speechless for a moment. It seemed that Le Jin had played single-handedly with people in the wilderness, which was a bit addictive. However, this time the opponent was really not something Le Jin could do. He counted all the generals of the Liaodong Army. Except for Zhao Yun, there were some scenes, and everyone else gave food.
Ma Han shook his head: "It's useless. Lu Bu is not a martial arts tycoon. He always fights with everyone. He has an unfinished appointment with me, so he wrote a book to challenge him, and at the same time he can achieve the goal of showing his power in front of thousands of Yuan troops. If it were someone else, he would not face the challenge, whether it was strong or weak."
Mi Fang still felt that it was inappropriate: "Carriage battles, swords and halberds have no eyes, and if you are a little negligent, Jiuzhou Juti. What is the identity of Gong Ming? How can he take risks? Inappropriate, inappropriate..."
The Mi brothers have already bet on Ma Han's future, and even the girls have paid off. They regard Ma Han's safety as more important than Ma Han himself, and they firmly oppose such a dangerous and extremely dangerous thing as a fighter.
Tao Shang also said in panic: "It's only thousands of soldiers. How can Ming Gong take this strange risk? If there is any mistake, Shang Bai's death is not enough to redeem his sins."
As an old man who followed Ma Han in the early days, Guan Hai had witnessed the first battle between Ma Han and Lu Bu. He was impressed by Lu Bu's power, so he advised for the first time: "Lu Bu is not enough to fight. After the two armies are over, the lord will come forward to clean up the mess and do his best to do his best and let God do his best."
Ma Han was speechless. Is the general's attitude a rhythm of "cherishing life and staying away from Lu Bu"?
What the generals said makes sense. This is not a wrestling player. Ma Han is not sure about the peerless general like Lu Bu.
Should I avoid the war?
Ma Han waved his hand and asked the generals to go down and stayed alone to meditate.
From dusk to evening to lights.
The generals gathered and dispersed, and they gathered again after they dispersed.
As he was about to see through, the door finally opened, and Ma Han's calm and peaceful face appeared: "Get the paper."
Two days later, three men and six cavalry appeared at the gate of Lu Bu's camp, and soon they were taken into the camp by the guards.
Lu Bu was warming up with Gao Shun, Cheng Lian and Wei Xusan on the school grounds. When he heard that the three of them had sent back the book last time, he immediately threw Fang Tian's painting halberd into Cheng Lian's arms, took two steps at the same time, and rushed back to the central army tent. When he saw Chen Dao, he didn't pay attention to any etiquette, so he stretched out his big hand: "Come on the letter."
When Gao Shun, Cheng Lian, Wei Xu, Cao Xing and others were pouring in, they saw the lord sitting behind the desk, holding a rare three-foot white paper in his hand, and his expression seemed to be happy but not happy, and seemed to be angry but not angry.
Gao Shun and Lu Bu are brothers and sisters, and they have never been so particular. When they snatched the white paper, they saw only three tense words:
Chapter completed!
