Chapter 153: Surrender Letter!
During the period when Lu Bu led the army to attack the fortified city of Tuyin County by projecting fire oil, there had been many battles on the seaside of Yuyang County.
And the two sides fighting each other are naturally the navy led by Cao Bao and Li Ru who went west to Youzhou and the army led by Zhang He and Xian Yufu.
Although Zhang He and Xian Yufu have an army of 20,000, which is more than Cao Bao and Li Ru, and there is also Zhang He, a famous general of the Three Kingdoms in the late Han Dynasty, but with Li Ru, a wise and resourceful man, and Cao Bao's ability to command troops, Zhang He and they can't help Cao Bao and Li Ru at all.
After letting the army led by Cao Bao and Li Ru destroy the 10,000 Bohai pirates who blocked the way in the sea, they successfully landed on the shore, and then stationed on the shore, confronting Zhang He and Xian Yufu on the shore.
Yuan Shao's army camp, although the 20,000 troops belong to Yuan Shao's account, but the composition is very mixed, there are 10,000 state troops led by Zhang He, and the other 10,000 are the county defenders of Yuyang County.
Therefore, it is personally led by Xian Yufu, the Taishou of Yuyang County.
However, Zhang He, as one of the four court pillars in Hebei, had a higher status under Yuan Shao's account, so Zhang He was the main general of the 20,000-strong army when necessary.
……
Night falls, and it is rare to be in the big tent of the auxiliary.
At this time, in addition to Xian Yufu, Xian Yufu's brother Xian Yuyin, and Tian Yu, the head of Yuyang County's Taishou Mansion, Shi Xian Yufu's friend, also appeared here.
They avoided Zhang He and didn't let Zhang He know that gathering in the big tent in the dark night must be an impure purpose!
Their purpose was indeed impure, because they received a letter of surrender from Li Ru.
They didn't let Zhang He, their lord, know.
Li Ru knew that Xian Yufu and Xian Yuyin were originally Liu Yu's subordinates, and after Liu Yu's death, because Yuyang County in Youzhou was occupied by Yuan Shao, they had no choice but to take refuge in Yuan Shao.
And the relationship between Tian Yu and Xian Yufu is very good, so Tian Yu responded to Xian Yufu's request and made a long history of Yuyang County's Taishou Mansion.
If Li Ru wants to let Cao Bao, Liao Hua, and Pei Yuanshao lead the army to destroy the 20,000 army led by Zhang He as soon as possible, and then occupy Yuyang County or destroy the grain route that provides food for Tian Feng and Yuan Xi, so that they can successfully respond to the western expedition to Youzhou led by Lu Bu on the side, the only way to use a strategy is to seize the time and preserve the strength of their own army.
Therefore, when Li Ru learned that among the 20,000 troops that Zhang He confronted them, there were 10,000 county defenders from Yuyang County brought by Xian Yufu, and his eyes immediately lit up.
Li Ru only felt that it was the best choice to start with Xian Yufu, Xian Yuyin, and Tian Yu.
Then come to a meeting with them and solve Zhang He in one fell swoop.
Now, the most important thing is to counter them and help them, otherwise, everything is just delusional.
Therefore, the letter of surrender written by Li Ru was sent to Xian Yufu and them at a very fast speed, so that they were now gathering together to discuss something.
"Brother, Guorang, what do you think of the letter of surrender that Li Wenyou gave us?" At this moment, Xian Yufu, who was sitting at the top, asked aloud.
"Silver according to the brother's will!" Xian Yufu asked, and Xian Yuyin, who was looking forward to Xian Yufu, hurriedly replied.
However, Tian Yu, whose word is 'national concession', naturally has other opinions.
Naturally, I don't want to be like Xian Yuyin, go with the flow, and look forward to the view of Xian Yuyi!
Tian Yu became a friend Xian Yufu's long history, and he was nominally under Yuan Shao's account.
Although Yuan Shao, as the third prince of the fourth world, ruled the land of the four states of Hebei, he looked majestic, and he was now the largest prince of the party, but Tian Yu was extremely optimistic about Yuan Shao's future.
Sure enough, Yuan Shao, who had a large number of soldiers and abundant grain and grass, led the army south, but he couldn't even deal with Cao Cao, whose strength was far inferior to him, and it was ridiculous that he was still confronting Cao Cao on Guandu.
The two sides have also fought many times, but basically Yuan Shao has lost more and won less, which is simply ridiculous!
Now, Lü Bu has led a large army from Pingzhou to conquer Yuan Shao's Youzhou.
Suffering from the enemy on the back and abdomen, with Yuan Shao's stubborn and self-serving character of not listening to good words, Tian Yu can now be sure that Yuan Shao's majesty is about to come to an end!
Therefore, Tian Yucai didn't want to tie his future and the future of his friend Xian Yufu to Yuan Shao.
At that time, Tian Yu saw that the navy under Lu Bu's tent was so strong on the beach in Yuyang County, worthy of the usual prestige, and he immediately destroyed 10,000 Bohai pirates rampant in the Bohai Sea!
In addition, Tian Yu is in Yuyang County, and he is very close to Lu Bu's rule, and he knows a lot about Lu Bu, but he only feels that Lu Bu, who has become different from the original, is the object of his loyalty!
Although Lu Bu has a bad reputation, what does it matter?!
In this day and age, reputation is very important, but it is not very important, and it is necessary to have a good reputation!
As a great prince, Lu Bu cherishes the people under his rule, let them eat and dress well, and let them admire Lu Bu's wisdom and martial arts.
Lu Bu also recruited talents, and, under his own rule, made paper and compiled books, cultivated talents, filled Pingzhou's style of study, and built Pingzhou.
Lu Bu has the two big profits of agar syrup and snow salt, and he is also in full swing under his own rule, so that Lu Bu's treasury is not short of money and food, with these money and grain, Pingzhou can be consolidated inside, and the territory can be opened up outside.
Moreover, Lu Bu is not only the best in the world in martial arts, but also has a very strong ability to lead troops to fight, and every time he leads a large army to go out to fight, he can win a battle.
Lu Bu's account has Chen Gong, Li Ru, Chen Qun and others, and Wu has Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, Cao Bao, Zang Ba, Hao Zhao and others, and these talents will not fight each other openly and secretly for their own power, and then, like Yuan Shao, the military disagreement under the account will only ruin the foundation!
Therefore, Tian Yu had the heart to take refuge in Lu Bu.
Of course, as developed in history, Tian Yu originally wanted to persuade his friend Xian Yufu to join Cao Cao, but Cao Cao was far away in the Central Plains, and there was a Yuan Shao in between, even if he wanted to persuade his friend Xian Yufu to take the entire Yuyang County to join Cao Cao, he didn't have this opportunity to let him do it.
However, this is no longer important, because Tian Yu has a better choice, that is, Lu Bu.
Moreover, now that Lu Bu has led the army to conquer Youzhou, if he can persuade his friend Xian Yufu to take the entire Youzhou to join Lu Bu, at this critical moment, it will definitely be a great achievement for him, for Xian Yufu, and Xian Yuyin.
Lu Bu has a clear distinction between the civil and military rewards and punishments under his account, so that the three of them who take refuge in Lu Bu can also get a good position, and they may also be valued by Lu Bu!
