Chapter 35 Worried about Fan Lihua's accident, he went to the front line to rescue him
"This..." Fan Lihua's words were conclusive, Song Xian and Cheng Lian had nothing to say.
The rest of the captains, after a little thought, also clenched their fists and said, "I'll listen to the general." β
"Okay."
Fan Lihua returned to her seat and immediately ordered: "General Cheng Lian, you will lead an army of 5,000 and garrison it in Tanxian, I will give you a very important task, I hope you must complete it." β
"No."
"The rest of the generals will go with me at noon tomorrow. We are between Jian'an and Danyang, fighting with Ji Ling. β
"No."
After everything was arranged, Fan Lihua left Cheng Lian behind, and the rest of the people withdrew.
Cheng Lian was very curious, what important tasks would Fan Lihua give to him?
"General Cheng Lian, do you want to make meritorious service?"
"Yes, of course I do.... However, the general asked me to be stationed in Tan County, do I still have a chance to make meritorious contributions? β
Fan Lihua smiled, handed a list to Cheng Lian, and said: "As long as you kill all the people above within two days, it will be a great achievement, and after the lord learns about it, he will be rewarded." β
Originally, Fan Lihua was going to do this herself, but the war was urgent, and she really didn't have much time and energy.
Cheng Lian opened the list to take a look, almost stared at his eyes, and scolded: "Fan Lihua, do you want to trap me?" These are all great families from all over the world, and you asked me to kill them? β
Fan Lihua rolled her eyes and explained: "General Cheng Lian, the lord has long intended to eradicate the families in various places, if you can do this for the lord, it will definitely be a great achievement." Why did I harm you? β
"I don't believe it!"
Fan Lihua was patient and continued to explain: "Think about it, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Luo Cheng, what are they doing with their troops in various counties? Is it to play? If it weren't for the extermination of the family, why would they go? β
"If you still don't believe me, I'll show you something." As she spoke, she took out the 'spirit of fighting tigers for the whole people' and the 'land reform system' that she had silently written down and handed them to Cheng Lian.
From the content of these two notices, it can be seen that Lu Bu is exterminating the families in various places.
After reading it, Cheng Lian said to himself: "How come I don't know about such a big thing? β
"The lord was afraid that this matter would leak out, so he only told some of the generals."
Cheng Lian then remembered that it was different now than before, but whenever there was a discussion in the army, Lu Bu only summoned generals at the commander level, and miscellaneous generals like them were not qualified to participate in the deliberations, unless it was Lu Bu's concession.
"Well, I take your word for it."
Cheng Lian changed his attitude and sneered: "Isn't it the big family, what does it matter if I kill them all?" β
"The general is really happy, I promise you, after you destroy these families, the lord will definitely have a reward." Immediately afterwards, Fan Lihua continued to instruct that while eliminating these big families, the 'spirit of fighting tigers for the whole people' and the 'land reform system' were posted in the city. Let all the people see it.
And when doing this, the speed must be fast, and the family must not be given a chance to breathe.
Cheng Lian agreed, and in front of Fan Lihua, he made a military order.
Fan Lihua was thoughtful and understood at a glance that Cheng Lian's military order was not really confident. Instead, I want to pinch a handle in my hand, so as not to be pitted by myself. If this is wrong, he can prove his innocence with a military warrant.
In this regard, Fan Lihua has no objection, as long as Cheng Lian does it seriously.
At noon the next day, after arranging the military affairs of Tan County, Fan Lihua led 65,000 recruits and embarked on the road to Yangzhou.
Da Da...
On the official road leading to Donghai County, Lu Buzheng led his personal guards to gallop.
"Report..." Fly ahead.
Lu Bule grabbed the reins of his horse and asked, "What's the matter?" β
"My lord, Captain Lu Yi sent a small one to report that General Fan has led the army to leave Tan County and go to Yangzhou."
"Got it."
Hearing the news, Lu Bu was flustered and very worried.
Fan Lihua has 70,000 recruits under his command, how can he defeat Yuan Shu's 200,000 army? No matter how strong she is, no matter how strong she is, no matter how she uses soldiers like a god, she can't be so rebellious. It must be a meritorious service and a reckless dispatch.
Thinking of Fan Lihua's situation and the consequences of the defeat of the new army, Lu Bu was even more anxious, waved his hand, and shouted: "Go, go to Tan County!" β
Immediately, the two thousand guards under his command swept like a violent wind.
At noon the next day, Lu Bu rushed to the outside of Tan County exhausted and saw Lu Yi, the lieutenant of Donghai County, and Zhao Tai, the Taishou of Donghai County.
After asking the reason, LΓΌ Bu led his army into the city and took out the map at the county guard's mansion.
"Lu Yi."
"Yes."
Lu Bu asked, "What about the letter you handed over to General Fan?" β
"The last general knew that the matter was serious, and after General Fan left, he wrote down the letter silently, and the letter is here, please take a look at it." Lu Yi put the pirated letter on the table.
Lu Bu picked it up and took a look, and when he saw the strength of Yuan Shu's army clearly, he really pinched a cold sweat for Fan Lihua.
"40,000 iron cavalry, 15,000 chariots, 60,000 spearmen, 80,000 sword and shield men, plus some stragglers, no less than 220,000 people, such a powerful army, Fan Lihua will take 65,000 recruits to meet the battle, how can there be any reason to win?"
"Yes, General Fan is too reckless."
After a pause, Lu Bu asked, "How many troops are there in the city now?" β
Lu Yidao: "Before General Fan left, he asked General Cheng Lian to stay behind and be responsible for exterminating the families in various places, but two days ago, General Cheng Lian had already left Tan County, and now there are less than 3,000 people in the city. β
Such a small number of troops is useless at all.
After thinking about it, Lu Busi decided to go to the front line by himself, maybe he could help.
"You continue to stay behind and strengthen the city defense of Tanxian County, I will go to Jian'an County to recall Fan Lihua, and when we come back, let's prepare to defend the city." Lu Bu put away the map on the table.
"Yes. But... Yuan Shu is here, there are 200,000 troops, and I hope the lord will cherish it. Lu Yi was a little worried.
Lu Brown smiled and said, "I, Lu Fengxian, am invincible in the world, who can hurt me?" If you put a hundred and twenty hearts, even if the princes of the world die, I can't die. I'm still waiting for Kyushu. β
That night, Lu Bu set off with two thousand personal guards and went to chase Fan Lihua.
As for the extermination of the clans of Donghai County and Xiapi County, Lu Bu completely handed it over to Lu Yi and Lu Zhong, although they did not have many troops in their hands, but if they shot fast enough, they could still succeed.
And the war in Jian'an County is related to the life and death of Fan Lihua and 65,000 recruits, and Lu Bu has to pay attention to it.
Compared with the extermination of the family, of course, the situation here is more important.
So he chose without hesitation to give up his plan to exterminate the family and fight on the front line. Even if you want to lose, you have to see Yuan Shu's elite soldiers first, and earn some anger points from Ji Ling by the way.
What's more, Fan Lihua can't be fine!
