Cheng Yu's reminder put Cao Cao and others in a state of alert.

At the same time, Cao Cao also sent people to contact the camp of Lu Bu, only to obtain first-hand information from the Western Liang army.

But Cao Cao would never have thought that the two armies on his side had just started, and Lu Bu received information from the detailed teachings!

It is very common for princes to arrange detailed works in their respective territories. Perhaps these detailed works cannot be heard of too confidential things, but the mobilization of tens of thousands of troops cannot be concealed.

After receiving the information from Xiaotu, Lu Bu immediately stopped the army that was sieging the city, then quickly retreated thirty miles and set up camp at a major intersection.

After the army settled, Lu Bu called Zhang Liao secretly to his tent.

It was of great importance. Lu Bu didn't want too many people to know about the army's next actions. Only Zhang Liao won his trust and was called by him.

"Lord, our army is in full swing, why are we eager to withdraw our troops?" Zhang Liao was puzzled.

Although there was no great advantage in the previous siege, soldiers have been able to climb the city one after another. This is a good sign. As long as you persist, you may not be able to break through the city defense.

But at this critical moment, Lu Bu actually ordered the withdrawal of his troops and retreated for thirty miles!

In this way, all the efforts made by the soldiers before will be gone. Once the soldiers in Jizhou recover, the Xiliang army will fall into a tough battle again!

It's okay to fight hard, but what they lack most now is time. Now there are already reports of the Malaysians. Han De from Qingzhou raised 20,000 troops and was rushing towards Gaoyi. Even Gao Lan from Youzhou has entered Jizhou, but the specific city they hid in has not yet been discovered.

Everything shows that there is not much time left for the Xiliang Army.

In this case, Lu Bu had to waste his soldiers' efforts like this. Zhang Liao believed that this was a very unwise behavior, and maybe this expedition would be ineffective and the expedition would be counterproductive.

Faced with Zhang Liao's anxiety, Lu Bu was calm.

He did have great changes from before. After all, the experience in the court gave Lu Bu the capital to fight for dominance of the world.

He stepped forward and patted Zhang Liao on the shoulder and asked, "Wenyuan, let me ask you, even if we have captured Gaoyi, what will we do next?"

Zhang Liao was stunned.

What else can I do next? Just keep it!

"Haha, do you think our army can defend Gaoyi?" Lu Bu smiled.

If Li Ru had not emphasized the turning point of this battle before setting off, even if Lu Bu's qi cultivation skills increased, he would not have been as calm as he is now.

Seeing Lu Bu's calm look, Zhang Liao unconsciously calmed down.

"Is there a better way for the lord?"

When Zhang Liao said this, he gradually listed the places around Gaoyi and even in Jizhou in his mind, but with his understanding of Jizhou, he still had no gains.

Besides, I finally won the Gaoyi and I will throw it away after I change my hands?

What a pity!

Seeing Zhang Liao's face was confused, Lu Bu sighed with emotion.

"Li Zhonglang's wisdom is a hundred times better than you and me!"

"Before I set off, Li Zhonglang told me that our army's target this time was not Han Fu's Jizhou, but Cao Cao's Yanzhou!"

Yanzhou?

Zhang Liao couldn't understand even more.

"Is Cao Cao not an ally of the lord? Besides, our army is all in Jizhou, how can we move Cao Cao from Yanzhou?"

Lu Bu nodded: "This is Li Zhonglang's cleverness!"

"This time, all the troops and Cao Cao's attention in Jizhou have been placed on Gaoyi. If our army abandons Gaoyi and suddenly retreats, what do you think Han Fu will do?"

Zhang Liao's eyes were staring at the boss. No wonder he was shocked. Gao Yi, who had been fighting for so long, wouldn't he beat him if he didn't fight? Wouldn't the casualties die in vain?

But since Lu Bu said that, based on Zhang Liao's understanding of him, the next step is likely to really withdraw troops from Gaoyi, but Lu Bu's question is not difficult to answer.

"If our army retreats, Han Fu will be the first to deal with Cao Cao in the south. The lord is far away in Chang'an. Even if Han Fu is willing to take revenge, it will be beyond his reach." Zhang Liao replied.

"Not bad! So if we want to plot against Yanzhou, our army must give up Gao Yi and let Han Fu fall on Cao Cao's head after all the rest of his anxiety and anger!"

"The snipe and clam fight, and the fisherman gains profit. Li Zhonglang wants us to be the last fisherman!"

After the words came to an end, a brief silence fell into the tent.

After a while, Zhang Liao said, "Where should our army retreat?"

Lu Bu's eyes turned north.

"Youzhou!"

.....

Lu Bu withdrew his troops.

When the news reached Gaoyi Prefecture, all the people present were exposed.

"Has the news been accurate?" Han Fu asked excitedly.

The soldier who sent the message quickly confirmed: "The little one has confirmed several times, and Lu Bu has indeed withdrawn his troops!"

"Okay! Very good! Great!" Han Fu paved back and forth excitedly.

The haze that has troubled him for so many days finally cleared the clouds and the moon was revealed today, and everything seemed to have become better.

Just when Han Fu was excited, Ju Su stood up.

"Lord, don't relax your vigilance. Lu Bu's army is still in Jizhou, and there is a possibility of killing it back at any time."

This sentence woke Han Fu up like a basin of cold water.

yes!

Lu Bu is still in Jizhou. Even if he doesn't attack Gaoyi, he will only burn, kill and loot in other places, which will make Jizhou hurt. Han Fu's mood is no longer beautiful when he thinks of this.

It can be said that he watched Jizhou develop step by step. Seeing that the people's lives are getting better and better, if this is destroyed by Lu Bu, God knows how much manpower and material resources it will take to recover.

"Then, should we send troops to follow us? Once Lu Bu is burning, killing, and looting, he will send troops to stop him."

Han Fu's proposal was rejected by Ju Shu as soon as it was released.

"No, there are only 15,000 soldiers in Gaoyi City. Even if the lord is sent out, he cannot stop Lu Bu's army. Instead, it will put our army in danger of overturning."

"This..." Han Fu was speechless.

"Besides, the 30,000 troops from Cao Cao have entered Jizhou. If the lord sends all the troops from Gaoyi, Cao Cao can go straight to take Gaoyi!"

Han Fu's face turned ugly.

He forgot Cao Cao!

"Do you just let Lu Bu leave like this?" Han Fu was a little unwilling to accept it.

Someone came to you and punched you, but you could only watch and not fight back before leaving. How frustrating it is!

Han Fu's words were not responded because he could only watch Lu Bu leave, otherwise Gao Yi would be in danger of overthrowing. These ministers naturally had to focus on the safety of the lord Han Fu.

Suddenly, Ju Su thought of a question and asked the soldiers who were sending orders below.

"Have you found the direction of Lu Bu's army's retreat?"

The soldiers of the commander recalled a little and said, "From the information found, Lu Bu's army retreated to the north."

"North?" Ju Su pondered.

Tian Feng, who was standing beside him, suddenly exclaimed: "Can they borrowed from Youzhou and then returned to Bingzhou?"

"Not good! Xu Rong is in danger!" Ju Su also exclaimed.

Tian Feng and Ju Su looked at each other and saw shock in the other person's eyes.

"What a Lu Bu, what a fake Taoist destroying Guo, what a secret visit to Chen Cang, what a big game of chess!!!" Ju Su sighed four times in succession.

With his wisdom, he had already seen the purpose of Lu Bu's trip at this time.

If what he guessed was true, Lu Bu had no idea of ​​planning Jizhou from the beginning! Everything he did was for his ultimate goal - Bingzhou!

Last year, Pan Feng, Xu Rong and others took advantage of the time to conquer Shangdang Hanoi and took over the Taiyuan.

Lu Bu was busy dealing with Han Sui-Mateng, who had been busy with Xiliang before, and now he should have freed up his hands to get back his territory.

But... Is it necessary to use so much manpower and material resources in Taiyuan?

What's more, Zhang Liao had already captured Shangdang at the beginning, and Lu Bu could have been able to fight against Taiyuan with Zhang Liao. There was no need to spare such a big circle and end up with Taiyuan.

Is Lv Bu still planning to Hanoi?

But even if Hanoi is added, there is no need to spend so much effort.

Is there anything else that is planned?

Ju Shu twisted his eyebrows together, and there was too little information in his hand. Many things had to be developed through guessing and scrutiny. Now he could only push them here, and there were speculations without factual basis in the future.

However, even when we get here, we can see that Lu Bu’s plan this time is very large. Gao Yi’s current military strength is seriously insufficient, and it is already a bit weak to participate.

"Mr., what did you say about a big game of chess, but what did you think of?" Han Fu asked.

Ju Su was his very trustworthy strategist. Ju Su actually sighed like this at this time, and Han Fu couldn't help but worry.

"Don't worry, lord, according to my guess, our army will only need to defend Gaoyi and there will be no more problems, just..."
