Chapter 527 Yang Fan takes action, Cao Mengde intends to go north

Since surrendering to Yang Fan, Lu Bu has been alive as usual, but when he went to the academy to study, his temperament changed drastically. Things he could not understand before and things he could not understand became clear.

The words and meanings expressed by the gentlemen are easy to understand, which made Lu Bu feel more and more that the lives of the people in Bingzhou are the life he had longed for when he was a child. Lu Bu was not from a good background. He used to think about himself and never cared about the feelings of others. Now, looking at the people with happiness on his face, some people would respectfully thank him and express their gratitude when they saw him. This is thanks from the heart, not on the surface, and Lu Bu could naturally feel it. Suddenly, Lu Bu finally knew how to go about his future path.

The best achievement of the ruler or commanding an army is to be recognized by the people, welcomed by the people, scramble to praise, praise and be famous in history. This is the greatest achievement of every "leader" in his life. What is more happy than being recognized by the people?

Therefore, when he went on the expedition, Lu Bu naturally volunteered and volunteered. He wanted to use his military achievements to prove to the world that Lu Bu was worthy of his vows when he joined the army, his cultivation of Yang Fan, his love for his people, and his land that he needed to protect.

However, this arrogant words made Lu Bu very angry. He turned his head and shouted at him, "Xu Zhongkang, what are you going to do? Fight with me everywhere. Although your camp is powerful, it is a rushing hundreds of miles, and it is a matter of the cavalry. Don't join in!"

It turned out that this man was the leader of the trap camp, Xu Chu.

In addition to Gao Shun, the generals of Zhongdaying were Xu Chu who followed Yang Fan for the longest time. Although they are only generals of Zhongdaying, the camp under his command was the elite troops of a hundred battles that Yang Fan had trained by Gao Shun.

Xu Chugui was the main general of the camp, and with the assistance of Li Ru, a counselor in the army, we can see how much Yang Fan valued and cultivated this camp.

This also makes Xu Chu's position in Zhongdaying second only to Gao Shun.

Before Xu Chu could speak, he saw Li Ru's thin body crossing behind him and bowing to Lu Bu first: "Wen Hou, everyone is the general under the lord's tent. Now my Zhongdaying is ordered to march eastward to Jizhou. The position of vanguard is related to our army's face. The camp under Zhongkang's command is the strongest soldier of my Zhongdaying. Don't need it at this time? When will it be better?"

Xu Chu smiled carelessly and said, "Wenyou said well, Lu Fengxian, others are afraid of you, but I, Xu Chu, are not afraid. Today, I will compete with you for this pioneer position!"

Lu Bu knew the strength of the camp, and frowned and said, "My camp leader is here. He has his own conclusions. Why not let General Gao decide!"

Gao Shun smiled bitterly, turned to look at Guo Jia, Xun Chen and asked, "Fengxiao, Youruo, who do you think is the pioneer of the sect?"

Seeing Gao Shun asking Guo Jia for advice, Lu Bu immediately smiled and threatened Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, you have to think clearly!"

Guo Jia was about to speak, but was choked in his throat by Lu Bu's words. Speaking of which, Guo Jia and Lu Bu still had some relatives, which made him dare not talk nonsense. However, in the current situation, sending Lu Bu to intercept Cao Cao was the best choice. At this point, Guo Jia laughed and said, "Everyone, Cao's army is already in Baima City at this moment, and will cross the river north soon. General Xu Chu's camp is the strongest soldier in our army, but this Huguan is more than a hundred miles away from Liyang? The camp is a heavy infantry, good at infantry fighting, which is not conducive to long-distance journeys. General Lu's command is all cavalry, which is conducive to long-distance raids. Therefore, I suggest that it is better to let General Lu lead a cavalry and immediately go south to Liyang to block Cao's army. At the same time, let General Xu Chu's camp serve as the vanguard of our army and send troops to Yecheng, Weijun."

Xun Chen smiled and said, "It should be so. Our army's enemies at this moment include the Cao army on the south bank of the Yellow River and the Yuan army in Jizhou. General Xu and General Lu don't have to hurt the harmony for this vanguard position. In the following view, the two generals are both vanguard generals of our army! However, the lord only asked our Zhongdaying to dispatch three troops. If General Lu's troops were all south to Liyang, then our army's troops to attack Jizhou would be a little stretched. Therefore, General Lu could only lead at most five thousand cavalry to block Cao's army. However, Cao's army had just defeated Yuan Shao, and his morale was strong and his troops were sharp. The number was about 30,000. I just didn't know, would General Lu dare to go south?"

Xun Chen's words, while roughly talking about the number of people attacking Jizhou, he deliberately stimulated Lu Bu and made him put down his arrogant mentality from the beginning. After all, five thousand soldiers and tens of thousands of soldiers were fighting against Cao's army. If he was not careful, he would die tragically.

"Huh?" Lu Bu was stunned when he heard this and said in his mind that he would block tens of thousands of Cao's army with only five thousand troops. This made Lu Bu fall into deep thought. Lu Bu thought not because he was afraid of Cao's army, but because he was thinking about how to block Cao's army. If it were the past, Lu Bu would have received orders without any scruples.

But Lu Bu had fought with Cao's army, and he was deeply impressed by Cao's army's combat power.

After hearing this, Xu Chu was also stunned. Seeing Lu Bu silent, he thought it was Lu Bu who was afraid. He laughed and said, "What? Lu Fengxian, the famous No. 1 general in the world, would be afraid? Since he is afraid, then the general will let you attack Yecheng and go south to block Cao's army, and leave it to me, Xu Chu. Others are afraid of him, Cao Cao, but I, Xu Chu, are not afraid!"

Lu Bu said angrily: "Xu Zhongkang, who said that I was afraid? I just now was just thinking about countermeasures!"

At that moment, Lu Bu clasped his fists at Gao Shun and said, "General Gao, but don't worry, with me, Lu Bu, Cao Cao would not take a step forward from Li Yang!"

Gao Shun laughed and said, "General Lu doesn't have to worry. As long as you block Cao's army for several days, the lord will personally lead the Dragon and Tiger Guard to Liyang."

Chen Dao wondered: "My lord wants to go to the front line in person? However, there are still several schools in Zhongdaying who have not moved. How can I let the lord go to the front line?"

Guo Jia smiled bitterly and said, "My lord said that he would go to meet his old friends in person. As for Jizhou, how to fight is our own business!"

Zhang He was the most active. Judging from Xun Chen's words just now, Zhongdaying will only dispatch three schools of troops. Just now, the two schools of Lu Bu and Xu Chu had already been finalized. Now there is only one school of troops and horses. Zhang He quickly stepped out and said, "The last general is from Jizhou, familiar with the environment of Jizhou. He asked to lead troops to fight against Jizhou. I hope General Gao will agree!"

Gao Shun nodded and smiled, "You don't have to be anxious. Even if you don't ask for your order, I will send you to the battle!"

Until now, Chen Dao reacted and said unscrupulously: "Okay, you sloppy guy, no, I will go there too when you go to Jizhou this time!"

Gao Shun smiled and said, "The lord only gave the troops of the three schools, Zhongkang's camp, Fengxian's cavalry, and the school of Yen. There are enough people, and you have no share!"

Chen Dao said anxiously: "Zhongyun! Look, I feel uncomfortable, you see, it's better than......"

Gao Shun's face turned cold and shouted, "What's better? When did you learn to be picky and picky? Huguan is a key pass in the south of Bingzhou. After I left, you must guard it for me. Otherwise, I will definitely ask you!"

"well!"

Chen Dao sighed, then cut Zhang He fiercely and then shook his head and sighed.

Gao Shun, Guo Jia and Xun Chen discussed carefully, and directly ordered Lu Bu to lead 5,000 cavalry troops and immediately went south to Liyang to block Cao's army; Xu Chu led 10,000 camps as the vanguard, and then dawn tomorrow, leaving Huguan to attack Yecheng, Weijun, Gao Shun brought the remaining camps and cavalry as the central army, and Zhang He as the rear army, with a total of 55,000 troops and horses out of Huguan, and at the same time recruiting a school of security troops to be responsible for escorting the baggage.

After receiving the order, Lu Bu led five thousand cavalrymen out of Huguan overnight and rushed towards Hanoi County.

A few days later, Lu Bu led his army to Liyang City. Liyang defended generals. After hearing that Lu Bu was famous, he opened the city and surrendered. Lu Bu just like this, his troops took Liyang without bloodshed. This bridgehead on the north bank of the Yellow River was quietly waiting for Cao's army to cross the river.

And Lu Bu's arrival was like the fuse, which made Cao Cao smell a different smell.

On the south bank of the Yellow River, inside Caoying Camp.

Cao Cao summoned his generals to discuss matters.

"Everyone, the scout came to report just now, saying that Lu Bu has captured Liyang!" Cao Cao said with a wry smile.

Liu Ye looked heavy and analyzed: "Yuan Shao had just died, and the Yang family army moved. It can be seen that Yang Fan is in Jizhou! Lu Bu rushed from Huguan to Liyang, and his meaning was very obvious, that is, Yang Fan was expressing a meaning to you, lord."

Cao Hong looked puzzled and wondered: "What does it mean? Isn't it that Yang Fan wants to take the opportunity to seize Jizhou?"

Liu Ye shook his head and smiled, "Yes, not! Yang Fan's move was to express to his lord that Jizhou is his, so no one else could get involved. Otherwise, the Yang family army would not let Yecheng, which is close to him, and would have to go south for hundreds of miles to enter Liyang!"

Cao Cao looked heavy and asked, "With Ziyang's opinion, will I fight?"

Liu Ye secretly figured it out and replied, "Our army is in full swing. Although Yang Fan wants to embezzle Jizhou, lord, you are also involved in Jizhou. Besides, Yuan Tan from Youzhou will definitely not sit and watch Jizhou fall. By then, when the three sides fight, our army will be able to make profits. Now it is the time when the Yuan army in Jizhou is at its weakest. Even if we cannot occupy the entire territory of Jizhou, we cannot just watch the Yang family army easily take over Jizhou."

Cao Cao laughed and said, "No, not bad, that boy Yang Bowen is very bad! Since he decided to send troops, he will definitely not fight a battle without confidence. Let's go to Jizhou, grab some money and food, and leave him one, Jizhou in a devastated face!"
