"But if King Jin specifies that he wants me to wait for my brother to go, can Brother Leopard still not go?" After all, the young man was a little slippery, and there was some banter in his words.

"Don't dream, what kind of person is King Jin, every day and every day, will he know this kind of little minions?" The leopard's attitude towards these young people was finally a little dissatisfied, and he couldn't help but speak with a little anger.

"That's not necessarily, but then again, Brother Leopard is also for the good of all of us, don't worry, if we are really recruited to the front line, we will still be Brother Leopard's soldiers."

As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately echoed loudly, and everyone was sincere, without any pretense.

"What do you know, life and death on the battlefield are unpredictable, if ten people go out on the expedition and one of them returns safely, it is already a rare victory, do you think it is a family to fight on the march? You'd better pray to Heaven that you don't get chosen, or your life will not be your own. ”

A few young people finally have a little dignified, the leopard is nominally their captain, but in fact, in normal times, there is almost no shelf, and they are like brothers, talking and laughing on weekdays, joking is a common thing, listening to his words today, several young people are deeply moved.

"Brother Leopard, don't worry, even if the King of Jin really recruits you and my brother to go on the expedition, there is nothing to be afraid of, it's just a big deal, when the battle returns, our living people will take care of the old man for the dead brother, and he will not be worried about it underground."

When a young voice said this, it still moved the leopard who had gone through all the vicissitudes of life a little, these boys were not too unconscionable, and finally knew that they were thinking about others.

Before he finished thinking about it, the person who listened to the speaker continued: "Especially the sister Xia'er in Brother Leopard's family, leave it to me with confidence." ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of laughter in the crowd, and some people refuted it, scolding the previous people for being shameless, fair lady, and those who are virtuous should get it.

The leopard's original touch was all destroyed by these noisy soldiers, and he kicked the flamboyant person next to him angrily, and scolded: "Bastards, you think beautifully." ”

With the sound of cheers, laughter and scolding, it resounded in the gate of Anyi, and this vast heaven and earth seemed to have more vitality because of this.

As the leopard expected, an eight-hundred-mile rush on a fast horse went straight to the Prime Minister's Mansion, which is now the Jin Palace.

Lu Bu passed the emergency report in his hand to Sima Lang, his expression was a little lonely, even the name was passed on to future generations, and Deng Ai, who left a strong mark in the history books, also died young, it can be seen that Huanghuang Tiandao, everything is not certain, and no one can ensure that they can be safe and sound in such troubled times.

The urgent report was quickly circulated among several people, and several of them were Lu Bu's confidants, and after reading the letter, they were all shocked and inexplicable.

You must know that Ma Chao has always been a prince close to Lu Bu, and Lu Bu's assistance to Ma Chao in terms of materials can also be said to be extremely valuable, and the reason for this is nothing more than because Ma Chao's father Ma Teng was Lu Bu's friend of life and death, and he died to save Lu Bu back then.

So over the years, even if Ma Chao has repeatedly been capricious and against Lu Bu, Lu Bu has not bothered with him, as if the eight hundred miles of Qinchuan in Guanzhong are not in the territory he expected.

For more than ten years, the Bingzhou army has repeatedly gone out to attack, all put the weakest Ma Chao aside, the military division Tian Feng several times suggested that Lu Bu first take Chang'an, sit firmly in the west, and then take the Central Plains to compete for the world, Lu Bu did not listen to his advice, but went the opposite way, appeased Ma Chao with heavy money, and then sent troops to fight Cao Cao in the Central Plains.

Over the years, the amount of materials that Lu Bu gave to Ma Chao was huge, even exceeding the sum of Xiliang's income over the years, and he became Ma Chao's real food and clothing parents.

Unexpectedly, at such a moment, in the situation where Lu Bu was facing enemies on all sides, the person who caused the heaviest blow was the person Lu Bu did not expect the most.

People's hearts are really like iron and stone, how can they not be hot? Or is the power of faith even this, really to serve the country loyally?

Lu Bu couldn't believe how much loyalty to the country a person who held the emperor hostage in the past and made the emperor unbearable and fled.

"Hangu Pass is broken, more than 2,000 people including Deng Ai and others were killed, Ma Chao raised 50,000 troops, and ransacked the entire Hongnong County, and now the soldiers have reached Luoyang City, Gao Shun has been unable to fight repeatedly, and sent me an urgent report for help, what do you think?"

Lu Bu's voice was extremely cold, and of course everyone knew the reason.

Hangu Pass held on for half a month, the defenders of the city will not be unfulfilled, thousands of people forgot to die, no one surrendered to the enemy, and finally died in the head of Hangu Pass.

But in the past half a month, there was no one to rescue the difficulties of Hangu Pass, so that they died in danger little by little with hope. It is conceivable that the mood of these people when they were dying must have been extremely disappointed in the court and Lu Bu.

This was not an ordinary military defeat, it was a catastrophe, it was a crime, and the newly appointed General Gao Shun bore the brunt of the responsibility.

According to the urgent report sent by Yang Xiu, the general of the military division, the general of Hangu Pass had sent several letters asking for help, but it happened that Wei Xu transferred all the soldiers and horses of Hongnong and the king did not return, and the newly appointed general Gao Shun had no soldiers in his hands, even if he wanted reinforcements, he could not help, and the policy of disarmament and returning to the field was in full swing, and the emptiness of the division's defense could be seen.

Gao Shun could only recruit militia nearby, and then send messengers to the DPRK to ask for help, but the weather was unpredictable, and the heavy snow for several days made the traffic in various places interrupted, and many mountains were even more difficult to walk, and the messengers could not continue on the road, so they could only go home and wait for the weather to be a little better before making plans.

Therefore, it was not until after the city was destroyed that Lu Bu learned of this terrifying news.

And just before learning the news, Lu Bu just received a message from Shangyong, Liu Bei assisted Liu Zhang to hunt Hanzhong, and the general Zhang Fei personally attacked the head of Hanzhong City, Hanzhong City was broken on three days, Zhang Lu was afraid of Liu Zhang's revenge, and escaped from the road with his wife and children to the Yong, and took refuge in Lu Bu's guard Wang Ling in Jingzhou, and sent a letter of worship, expressing his willingness to be loyal to the King of Jin with the ministers of the Han Dynasty.

Although Hanzhong was nominally captured by Liu Zhang, the actual control was firmly in Liu Bei's hands, once he completed the succession of Yizhou and Jingzhou, Liu Bei at that time would occupy half of the Han Dynasty, enough to rival the limelight Lu Bu.

And Lu Bu here, but he suffered such a miserable defeat, but the reason is not anyone's fault.

Although Gao Shun was guilty of dereliction of duty and did not send troops to support in time, he was also a clever woman who could not cook without rice, and there was a lack of soldiers and major generals in his hands, and it coincided with the heavy snow blocking the mountain, and the treacherous Hanguguan Gorge was simply difficult to pass, and it was not an unforgivable sin to rescue in time.

There is another person who should be responsible, but no one dares to say it, that is, Lu Bu, who will be transferred and replaced, if he had not mobilized the garrisons in various places, exchanged the garrison places, and rotated the military commanders in various places one by one, so that the new incumbents would not have been clear about the defense of the places they visited, and they would not have suffered such great losses.

"Ma Chao new victory, the Xiliang army is in full swing, and the strength is far superior to Luoyang, Gaoling Marquis has just taken office, and the Luoyang defense is not very clear, and now many times the defeat has lost morale, and Luoyang is the place of four wars, and it is not conducive to defense, I am afraid that Gaoling Marquis is already in danger, and please ask the King of Jin to quickly deploy troops to rescue. Luoyang is a confidant, connecting Jingzhou and the state must pass through, once Luoyang is lost, then Ma Chao can attack Anyi in the north, Nanyang can be taken in the south, and the north and south can advance and retreat freely, and our army will be in a very disadvantageous situation. ”

The person who spoke was Jia Xu, who had just returned from Jizhou, and since Jia Xu assisted Gao Shun to pass through Jizhou, he had repeatedly tried to help Gao Shun's troops besiege Dongjun, so that Cao Cao had been in the anxiety that the base camp would fall at any time, which was also one of the reasons why Cao Jun had no intention of fighting and losing consecutive battles.

"Where does Wen He think I should transfer troops from?"

At present, the policy of disarmament is being implemented in various states, and the surrounding areas of Anyi bear the brunt, and the Gyeonggi garrison led by Hou Cheng was immediately abolished, and at the same time, the standing garrisons of Mengjin, Jinyang, Shangdang, Hexi and other places totaling more than 80,000 people were abolished or reorganized, and only 2,000 standing garrisons were left in each county in case of a change, and even the city defense army in Anyi City was directly reduced from the original 20,000 to 10,000. Only the soldiers and horses of Shuofang and Shangjun to defend the Xiongnu were not removed, and Lü Buzhi's army was like a fierce fire, and the generals who were thundered were all frightened.

The side effect of this is that the defense force seems to be extremely empty, and once a war breaks out, it is found that there are no adjustable troops around. Today's troop deployment is not only the lack of troops in the division, but also the same in every state and county in the Central Plains, and only the states and counties near the border can maintain sufficient troops.

Therefore, no matter where the troops are transferred at the moment, it will inevitably create a troop vacuum in other regions, giving the Liukou Mountain bandits an opportunity to take advantage of.

"Since there are no troops available around Luoyang, it is better to transfer troops from the front line of Jingzhou Xinye and Fancheng, and Wang Ling still has 50,000 elite soldiers in his hands. Now Liu Bei has exhausted his elite to Xichuan, and the defenders of Nanjun are not more than 10,000, so it will not pose much threat to me for the time being, so I can quickly order Wang Ling to divide 20,000 troops to support General Gao Shun to relieve the siege of Ma Chao. ”

Jia Xu didn't dare to mention the matter of conscripting and demobilizing soldiers, after all, changing the order of the dynasty is a taboo for the superiors, and now that the people's hearts are settled, everything is developing for the better, once the soldiers are recruited again, it will inevitably cause panic among the people, and the economy that has just been stable is only afraid that it will be vulnerable.

"Well, immediately draft a military order, let Wang Ling lead 20,000 troops, cover Zhuge Liang's ears and eyes with a plan to hide from the sky and cross the sea, lead the army north to Luoyang, and join forces with Gao Shun's army in Yi County, and defend against Ma Chao's Xiliang army with the momentum of the horn."

"Okay, I'll draft the edict." Chen Lin picked up the pen and grinded, and prepared to draft the military order.

"Then let Wei Yue transfer the backbone of the city to form a special attack battalion of 5,000 people, equipped with light armor as standard, looking for an opportunity to secretly cross Fenglingdu, and go straight behind Ma Chao's Xiliang army, and Hongnong County, a confidant."

"Wonderful, King Jin's plan is wonderful, so that the strange soldiers will raid behind Ma Chao, and when the time comes, Ma Chao will have no return! It's just that there are not many soldiers and horses in the city, how can we even out those many elite men and horses, and now although the heavy snow has stopped, the light snow is still here and there, this is a mountain road to Fenglingdu, slippery and difficult to walk, and there is still residual ice on the Yellow River, how to ensure that the army arrives in time? ”

Sima Lang praised it from the bottom of his heart, but although this plan is good, it is also very difficult to implement, once it succeeds, Ma Chao will not expect such a change, and the overall situation will be completely changed.

"Tell Wei Yue that no matter what method he uses, he must succeed, otherwise he won't come back to see me."

Lu Bu's order seemed a little unkind, and forcibly crossing the Yellow River in such a harsh environment was really like a chestnut in the fire, and he was afraid that he would die for life.

The plan was agreed, and there was Sima Lang's overall arrangement, and Lu Bu sent everyone out, and fatigue struck, and he had a headache.

For many days, the severe medicine has pulled the crumbling government back from the edge of the collapse, I thought there would be a moment of respite, but I didn't expect that just being canonized as the king made the princes around the country react fiercely, and almost all around the place were filled with war, especially the Luoyang crisis is the most serious, and I am afraid that if I don't do it, I will lose all my efforts.

The nerves that had been tense for days finally relaxed for a moment, and the feeling of discomfort suddenly hit.

In a drowsy state, Lu Bu, who closed his eyes and recuperated, suddenly smelled a familiar fragrance, and a pair of soft hands were already on Lu Bu's shoulders, using the gentle power that Lu Bu had long been accustomed to to soothe the discomfort on his shoulders.

"The husband looks tired, why not take a break for a while, political affairs are not finished after all."

In the nearly three months since Lu Bu came back, Yan Xiuli has looked a lot plumper, perhaps because of her comfortable mood, her whole person looks radiant, and even the nasolabial folds between her eyebrows have disappeared.

Lu Bu didn't open his eyes, enjoying the comfort of his shoulders spread all over his body, and the headache seemed to be much lighter, and he said in a deep voice: "The political affairs are urgent, and the time is not waiting for me, and only a little poor arrangement is the tragedy of Hangu Pass." The generals didn't dare to say my fault, but I couldn't help it in my heart after all, Deng Ai is a talent, it's a pity. ”

"The husband doesn't have to blame himself, who would have thought that Ma Chaoen would take revenge on the wolf's ambitions, and the husband suffered a temporary loss, but since then he has recognized the trouble of his henchmen, which should be gratifying."

Lu Bu didn't expect his wife to be so comforting, even if he knew that she was naturally talking to himself, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Did you eat honey today?" It sounds so good! ”

Yan Xiuli smiled slyly: "You haven't tasted it, how do you know?" ”

Lu Bu was immediately furious, good guy, this is blatant teasing, isn't this his patent? Lu Bu felt that his rights as a man had been greatly challenged, and immediately turned around and looked aggressively: "What does Madam want me to taste?" ”

Yan Xiuli took a step back in shock, only to feel that her cheeks were shaved by her husband's sharp gaze, and a weakness arose in her heart for no reason, so her body became weak and collapsed to the ground.

Lu Bu reacted naturally dissatisfied, and grabbed his wife's figure, only to see that her face, which was still radiant, was already bloodless, her eyes were closed and her breathing was short, which turned out to be a sign of fainting!

Lu Bu's heart fell like a boulder, his eyes were red, and he shouted outside the hall: "Hurry up through the house doctor!" ”
