Chapter 198: How dare you underestimate the tigers and wolves
After more than half a year, the mother and daughter finally had to meet again, they had a thousand words in their hearts to confide in, sitting at the head of the bed together, plus Lu Xing, who rushed to hear the news, gossip for a while, strange stories in the city, and interesting things on the way, all of which were talked about at this time, and laughter permeated the entire bedroom.
Let's say that Lu Bu captured Caicheng on the day of mid-autumn, and the defenders in the city either died or surrendered, and only a small group of routed troops fled and hid in the houses, and there was no need to worry about it in the absence of a general to command it.
LΓΌ Bu ordered to clean up the law, bury the corpses, and clean up the countless houses and buildings in the city that had been destroyed by the war.
On this day, Lu Bu convened a gathering of civil and military generals to discuss the future war. When the soldiers did not arrive, Lu Buxian and a group of confidants and advisers agreed in the inner room.
After learning the news that Xiahou Jie had the opportunity to flee in time, Lu Bu did not have many regrets, and said to everyone: "I can't ask for someone to send a message for Cao Cao, I am worried that Cao Cao will retreat to Shouchun and hold on, I don't know the strength of our army, so it's okay, but I don't need to send a messenger." After this battle, our army captured the entire Yangzhou land north of the Huai River, so that Cao Cao could only retreat to the Huai River and garrison the Shouchun line. More importantly, it severed the connection between Cao Cao and his stronghold, Dongjun, so that they could not help each other. Our army has formed a situation of encirclement on three sides of Shouchun, which can be attacked and retreated, and is already invincible. β
All the strategists spoke freely, and they all had an optimistic attitude towards the situation at this time.
Yang Xiu talked even more eloquently, and said proudly: "What the prince said is extremely true, now our army is near the Huai River, only a river away from Shouchun, and Xuzhou can be taken to the east, and Cao Cao can be intercepted and killed in the land of Shouchun in the south." I don't think it will take until the end of the year, only when autumn goes to winter, Shouchun can be captured, Cao Cao can be captured alive, and our army will move the division as soon as possible. β
Everyone's opinion was equal to Yang Xiu's, and they nodded their heads again and again.
Lu Bu couldn't help frowning secretly, the so-called arrogant soldiers will be defeated, and his own henchmen and ministers are still empty-eyed, and they don't put Cao Cao in their eyes, not to mention those arrogant soldiers and fierce generals who have won many battles, I'm afraid that the pride in the army is even worse than that!
At the moment, Zhengse said: "Cao Cao is a hundred-legged insect dead but not stiff, he is far from the end of the road, let us wait for the point of slaughter, there are still Qingzhou, Xuzhou, as well as Yanzhou, Yangzhou under his rule, only in Yangzhou Shouchun area, there are tens of thousands of male soldiers, and there are countless generals under the account, although our army has an absolute advantage in strength. Although our army has a small victory, if Cao Cao is despised because of this, I am afraid that the day of defeat will be close at hand. β
Everyone was stunned for a while, but they didn't expect that the prince who was ashamed to speak and swear that he was invincible just now suddenly changed his attitude, and he really couldn't figure out what he was thinking, so they closed their voices and waited for the change.
Lu Bu was relieved to see that everyone had finally corrected their attitudes, and said bitterly: "It is true that our army has enough advantages, but the army must not underestimate the enemy and be arrogant in the battle, we can put on a contemptuous appearance in tactics to confuse the enemy army, but we must attach great importance to the strategy, no matter how big or small, we must not have the slightest intention of underestimating the enemy." You must know that Yuan Shu, who was once prominent and far stronger than Cao Cao, was attacked and killed by Cao Cao under this Shouchun City, and we should take this as a lesson, and we must not be arrogant and dig our own graves. β
Everyone was red-faced by Lu Bu's words, and Tian Feng even clenched his fists and said respectfully: "It's me who is too frivolous and almost ruined the great affairs of the prince and marquis, please forgive the prince." β
Lu Bu waved his hand and said: "In a while, the generals will discuss the matter, you must remember to appease everyone's floating hearts, now that the war has not started, it is not too late to correct it as soon as possible." β
At this time, Deng Li walked into the inner room, bowed down and said, "All the generals have arrived, has the prince been promoted to discuss the matter?" β
Lu Bu nodded in agreement, got up and led a group of henchmen and ministers, came out of the inner room, and walked to the main hall, only to see dozens of soldiers in the hall, sitting on both sides of the hall, each laughing loudly, raising their glasses and drinking, making a hall that should have been solemn and upright into a miasma, just like a vegetable market.
The older generals are better, like Zhang Liao, Zhao Yun, Guo Yan and others, although they can hardly hide the smile on their faces, but after all, they do not lose their dignity, and just sit in place and exchange glasses.
And those young young generals were extraordinarily impetuous, each gathered in one place, hooked shoulders and backs, with a wonderful smile on their faces, their mouths were like a river, saliva flew in all directions, and each of them was given an allegro, and put on a robe and coat, which was enough to dwarf the Deyun Society in later generations.
After seeing Lu Bu walk into the lobby, the people who saw the opportunity each squeezed their eyebrows, leaned like a mouse, and quickly returned to their original seats.
Lu Bu had a frost on his face, strode to the upper seat, and looked coldly at the generals who were still talking timidly in the ears, and in the lobby, it seemed that midwinter had come in an instant, and the raging cold made people shudder.
The generals saw that the situation was not good, and they didn't know what medicine this prince had taken today, looking at this raging momentum, once he was burned, he was afraid that there would be no slag left.
Where did he dare to say more, they all sat up straight, and lowered their heads, lest they touch Lu Bu's cold gaze and touch this moldy head.
In the lobby, the noise suddenly disappeared, and dozens of soldiers did not dare to take a breath, and the hall fell into an eerie silence, which formed a clear contrast with the liveliness of Fang Cai.
"You're all very happy, you go on."
Everyone didn't dare to raise their heads, but when they heard the cold chill in Lu Bu's words, they couldn't help but snort in their hearts, and they suppressed their breath even more, looking at their noses and noses, and not daring to move a little.
"Very well, you're done, it's my turn. Where is Ding Xu? β
Ding Xu's heart jumped, the secret thing was not good, he just gathered the hustle and bustle, and he also got involved, but he watched the six roads and listened to the eight directions, and he saw the opportunity early, and was the first to retreat, he thought that the prince would not notice him, but he didn't expect that he still couldn't escape the eyes of the prince and the marquis, could it be that he left too early and seemed to stand out from the crowd? I couldn't help but regret it, I knew that I was a few steps late.
At this time, when he heard the question of the prince, he jumped up and bowed down and said, "Mo will be." β
"I ordered you to supervise the construction of warships, how did you do it?"
"The last general ordered the craftsmen to rush to make warships day and night, and at this time there were already twenty finished large ships and one hundred small ships."
A sneer sounded, and Lu Bu smashed the ink inkstone on the table to pieces, making a deafening sound, which made the hearts of the soldiers beat wildly.
Ding Xu shrank his head even more, his body shook a few times, and he almost fell to the ground with weak legs.
"Heh, twenty big ships, one hundred small boats, it's really hard for you, the ten-day period is approaching, the army is about to attack Shouchun, do you want my 100,000 army to float across the river?"
