Chapter 852: Miserable, Alert
It was born in troubled times, and if there is more attention to some small aspects, it will be a little too much.
Besides, Lu Bu gained a foothold among the princes with his strong strength, such princes, with strong military strength as support, even when facing war, they also have enough means to deal with it, and it is not a good thing to live under the rule of such princes.
Each family has their own way of judging things, and when they see that the development of the monarch is beneficial to their family, they will act accordingly.
When Lu Bu was governing Xuzhou and Yanzhou, the means he showed made these families dare not have more slackness, but followed; The benefits that the family around Lu Bu can get are also many.
When Lu Bu was under the rule of development, he must have relied a lot on the strength of the wealthy family, and at this time, the wealthy family could find opportunities to grow the strength of the family, and even allow the family to achieve better development under the rule of the princes.
Lu Bu's achievements among the princes made any prince more cautious when facing Lu Bu.
This war, if Lu Bu can survive safely, the impact on all the princes will be very great, and then these people will understand that it is so difficult to win against Lu Bu.
It is not easy to win from a confrontation, especially when facing powerful princes, if you don't have enough ways to deal with them, you will lose your own strength.
Back in the day, Yuan Shu's strength among the princes was extremely strong, but after the defeat in the war against Lu Bu, Yuan Shu's reputation was greatly affected.
The failure of this ambush war made the soldiers in Yuan Shu's army realize that their opponent Lu Bu was still so fierce, and when they encountered a war, they could even take the lead, and they also came to their own camp to scold, just from the performance of this aspect, Lu Bu is impeccable.
If you encounter a fierce general like Lu Bu in battle, what kind of strategy should be adopted is also a question that the generals under Yuan Shu need to think about.
After the general left, Yuan Shu fell into contemplation, after this defeat, let Yuan Shu see the lack of strength of his own soldiers, when facing the Xuzhou army, the advantage of troops is of course important, if the elite degree of his own soldiers has a greater gap than the enemy's army, it will have a great impact on the subsequent war.
More victories from the war are what Yuan Shu wants to see.
And after this confrontation, Yuan Shu definitely didn't dare to make other moves in a short period of time.
Besides, the 100,000 army went to war, just the preparation of food and grass materials, it was not an easy matter, and the Xuzhou army immediately responded after the arrival of its own soldiers and horses, which made Yuan Shu more vigilant.
The battle against the Xuzhou army is a major matter, if you can't get victory from this battle, Yuan Shu's reputation among the princes will be more affected, and more princes will have contempt for Yuan Shu at that time.
This kind of situation is also relatively common among princes, when a prince's strength is strong, he can get more respect among the princes, even if the prince's reputation is not very good, if a prince's reputation is good and does not have strong strength, sooner or later it will be encroached upon by other princes.
The confrontation between princes is inherently dangerous, and if you are not careful enough when doing something, the risks will be even greater.
Just like Yuan Shu sent troops to attack Xuzhou this time, if the war could not be won, or if the war was frustrated, the impact would inevitably be great.
Therefore, Yuan Shu will be more cautious in the face of war after the cavalry is lost.
Lu Bu's reputation among the princes is based on the strong strength of the Xuzhou army, if the Xuzhou army can be defeated, in fact, the next battle will be easier, but it turns out that if you want to do more about defeating the Xuzhou army, how difficult it is.
Just the strength of the cavalry in the Xuzhou army is not comparable to ordinary princes, and when they face Lu Bu, they are more afraid because of the Xuzhou cavalry.
The Xuzhou cavalry across the field has left a resounding reputation in the world, and the combat effectiveness of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion is strong, and it has also been recognized by a lot, when they are in the war, after encountering the soldiers of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, they must have more caution.
In the past, the reason why Yuan Shu failed to fight against Lu Bu had a lot to do with the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, and the brave and good warriors of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion could play a great role after arriving on the battlefield, which was unimaginable.
Now, Yuan Shu has encountered another setback in the battle against Lu Bu.
The 2,000 cavalry who went out to fight lost more than 500 people, and such a loss was definitely heavy for Yuan Shu, and it was definitely able to cause alarm.
Cavalry has an important position in the army, and if there is a loss in the cavalry team, it will definitely have a great impact on the next war, and this impact will be accompanied by other bad things.
The Xuzhou army can win the battle, and when the time comes, the generals under Yuan Shu's command will see that Yuan Shu still can't win from Lu Bu's hands despite having the advantage of troops, which will have a great impact on Yuan Shu's prestige in the army.
When the prestige of the monarch in the army is affected, it is not easy for the monarch to have a greater role in the army.
Lu Bu's prestige in the Xuzhou army is very high, which also makes Lu Bu often cause a great shock when he leads the officers and men of the army to fight, so that the officers and men of the army can burst out with stronger combat effectiveness when facing the enemy.
Yuan Shu also has a certain prestige in the army, but Yuan Shu's prestige is not the same as Lu Bu's prestige, after all, Yuan Shu cannot personally kill the enemy on the battlefield, which is very different from Lu Bu.
Of course, if Yuan Shu could not win when he led the army against LĂź Bu, the impact on the officers and men in the army would also be obvious, and it would make the soldiers in the army think that it would be difficult to win when their soldiers and horses fought against the Xuzhou army.
Once such emotions are generated, it is the most detrimental to the ensuing battle.
