Chapter Fifty-Eight: Mi Zhen, Talisman
In fact, it is also the case, the Mi family's devotion to Lu Bu has received a lot of help.
The news that Xuzhou is about to send troops to Yanzhou has spread among the dignitaries and nobles, and they have a lot of discussions about this war, and more people do not have much hope for Lu Bu's victory in this campaign, Yanzhou's territory is larger than that of Xuzhou, and the number of troops exceeds that of Xuzhou.
The previous victory of Lu Bu's army against the Yanzhou army does not mean that it can win in this confrontation, this time Lu Bu needs to deal with the threat from Qingzhou or even Jizhou.
The princes stood on the opposite side of Lü Bu and opposed Lü Bu's rule in Xuzhou, and it can be expected how delicate Lü Bu's situation in Xuzhou will be.
More officials in Xuzhou are on the sidelines at this time, mainly because Lu Bu has been in Xuzhou for more than a year and has already established a lot of prestige.
Mi Zhu invited Lu Bu to go to Beijiafu at such a time, and Lu Bu naturally would not refuse.
In the Farewell Mansion, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang accompanied Lu Bu to feast and drink, but they were also happy.
After drinking and eating, the maids all retreated, Mi Fang got up and said: "My lord, I ask myself about some martial arts, and I ask to follow my lord to fight in Yanzhou." ”
Mi Fang's martial arts are not weak, and Lu Bu knows this, "Since Zifang has a heart, follow the general's side." ”
"Thank you, Lord." Mi Fang hugged his fists.
With Lu Bu's order, he will be completely transformed from Peng Chengxiang to a military general in the army.
Mi Fang is a military general, yearning for the field, he believes that after he arrives in the army with his talents, he can be appointed.
"Zifang is in the army, and Zizhong is in charge of grain and grass in the rear, so he will have no worries." Lu Bu said with a smile.
Mi Zhu lowered his voice and said: "Lord, there will definitely be a lot of young people in Xuzhou secretly, so be careful." ”
"How could this matter not be known, if Ben will be victorious, then these people are not worried, Ben will not be in Xuzhou, you have to worry more about the affairs in the city, if the matter is urgent, just negotiate with General Hao Meng, no matter who it is, if you dare to destroy everything in Xuzhou, you will be killed." Lu Bu said in a deep voice.
Mi Zhu solemnly saluted: "Thanks to the trust of the lord, my subordinates will do their best." ”
At this moment, Mi Zhu and Mi Fang knew that Lu Bu had completely accepted the Mi family, and secretly handed over the affairs of Xuzhou to the Mi family to be responsible, what a trust this is, the Mi family also used their own efforts in exchange, the Mi family and Lu Bu married, for the development of Xuzhou, paid a lot of effort, Mi Fang joined the army, these are the manifestations of the Mi family's sincerity.
"My sister learned that the lord was about to lead a large army to fight, and she wanted to see the lord." Mi Zhu said with a slightly red face.
Although Mi Zhen and Lu Bu's family affair has been decided, they did not come to the door after all.
Lu Bu smiled: "Yes." ”
Not long after the two brothers left, a burst of fragrance hit, and under the white dress, Mi Zhen seemed to be a fairy from the nine heavens.
"I've seen Wen Hou." Mi Zhen Yingying bowed.
Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "If there are no outsiders here, Zhen'er doesn't need to be so polite." ”
"Xie Wenhou." Mi Zhen looked at Lu Bu with flashing eyes, although it was not the first time she faced Lu Bu, every time she met Lu Bu, she had a feeling of heartbeat.
After a moment of silence, Mi Zhen said: "Knowing that Wen Hou wants to fight on the battlefield, the little woman asked herself that it was difficult to stop her, so she could only wish Wen Hou a victory. ”
Lu Bu nodded with a smile.
"This thing is a talisman that my mother in the past asked for, and I gave it to Wen Hou, hoping that Wen Hou would return victorious on the battlefield." After Mi Zhen said this, her face turned red, like a ripe apple.
"Zhen'er has a heart, when she has nothing to do, she will go to the state pastor's mansion to accompany Yu'er." Lu Budao.
"The little woman obeys." Mi Zhen bowed and then floated away.
On the talisman, there is still a faint warmth and fragrance, Lu Bu put the talisman sent by Mi Zhen close to his body, and left the other driving mansion.
The Xuzhou army's campaign this time is related to whether Lu Bu can gain a foothold among the princes.
Hao Meng led 3,000 troops to defend Pengcheng, Hou Cheng led 2,000 troops to Langxi, and the remaining 15,000 troops all went to Yanzhou, where they will test the results of their training during this period of time on the battlefield in Yanzhou.
War is a great test for the officers and men in the army, and the lives of the soldiers are fragile on the battlefield, and if they are not careful, they will fall.
But for the sake of the stability of Xuzhou, for the victory of the monarch, they had to do so.
After more than 10,000 troops gathered outside Pengcheng, Lu Bu gave an order, and the army marched away.
The news of the transfer of the Xuzhou army came, Yanzhou shook up and down, although the Yanzhou army was defeated in the hands of Lu Bu, but Yanzhou still lacked enough attention to Lu Bu, in their opinion, Lu Bu led the Xuzhou army to get benefits from the Yanzhou army, it was simply impossible, especially when the princes stood up to denounce Lu Bu, the most likely thing was Lu Bu's panic and defeat.
What Liu Dai didn't expect was that Lu Bu dared to take the initiative to lead a large army to invade the land of Yanzhou at such a time, what kind of courage was this.
Xuzhou only has more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, but the number of Yanzhou troops is more than 50,000, forming an absolute advantage in numbers.
Mainly in Yanzhou, there are many yellow turbans raging, in order to exterminate these thieves in exile in Yanzhou, the number of the army has increased a lot unconsciously.
When the soldiers and horses of Xuzhou were mobilized, the army of Yanzhou was also gathered, and in just half a month, the army gathered in Changyi reached 40,000 people, including Cao Cao, who served as the Taishou of Dongjun for a short time, Yuan Yi, the Taishou of Shanyang, and Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei.
After gathering the army, Liu Dai ordered Bao Xin, the prime minister of Jibei, to lead an army of 10,000 to Peixian to intercept Lü Bu's army, and then led an army of more than 20,000 to Pei County, trying to defeat Lü Bu's army in Pei County.
Pei County is located in the Peiguo Department, close to Pengchengguo, and it is easy to attack Xuzhou from Yanzhou and Yuzhou, and similarly, Xuzhou's army can easily enter Yanzhou.
Pei County originally belonged to the Ministry of Yuzhou, but Liu Dai seized Pei County and Feng County, not only that, but even the Lu State, which belonged to the Ministry of Pei Guo, was also governed by Liu Dai.
After capturing Peixian, the Xuzhou army was able to drive straight into Yanzhou Prefecture to attack Changyi.
A major battle between the Yanzhou Army and the Xuzhou Army was on the verge of breaking out.
At the same time, Qingzhou soldiers and horses began to move.
Under the secret permission of Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, the prime minister of the plains, and Kong Rong, the minister of the Beihai State, and a total of 8,000 people, marched to the Lang Evil, and had the intention of breaking the Lang Evil and threatening Xuzhou in one fell swoop.
Liu Bei was not famous in the princes' army before, although he said that he was a member of the Han family when he saw people, but Liu Bei, a family member of the Han family, is still worth considering, and at such a time, a declining Han family is really nothing.
