Promise.

Li Shanchang responded.

You all stand down and call Xu Shu to come. Lu Budao.

Promise.

Chen Gong and Jia Xu left.

Xu Shu was recruited: The lord....

Look at this. Lu Bu handed the battle report he had just received to Xu Shu.

Xu Shu glanced at it and said, "The minister already knows." Cao Cao's army was defeated and killed, and our armies have turned to the northwest and are stationed in the area of Xiaopingjin.

Well. Then do you think it's better for us to attack Hebei next? Or is it better to coerce Chang'an? Lu Bu asked.

The minister believes that the army can be divided into two ways. Coerced Chang'an all the way, and conquered Hebei all the way. Xu Shu said: General Li Jing only had 150,000 troops in Hebei, and he has not been wiped out by Zhang Jaw Juyi and others. On the contrary, Li Jing won again and again, occupied Yecheng, and seized more than 100,000 stones, grains and grass. If 200,000 elite troops are mobilized and enter Hebei, they will definitely be able to eliminate the enemy. The rest of the soldiers and horses went to Hangu Pass and forced the Son of Heaven to give in.

Good....

Lu Bu also had this intention.

A two-pronged two-way dispatch of troops, in less than a year, should be able to pacify the world. At that time, Luoyang will be built and won, and he will succeed to the throne as emperor, and he will be able to enjoy peace in peace.

You have written a command for me. Bai Qi led 200,000 elite soldiers, including all our war horses, to Hebei to help in the war. The rest of the soldiers and horses immediately marched towards Hangu Pass. I'll get to Hanya Pass first. Wait for them to come.

Promise.

Xu Shu immediately sat aside, prepared an order, and sent someone to send it out.

........................

........................

Mid-April.

Lu Bu and Lu Ban discussed and determined the drawings for rebuilding Luoyang.

Li Shanchang ordered the conscription of the people in Luoyang, and began to build private houses, streets, mansions, markets, palaces, and so on. Ready to give Luoyang a new look.

The order was passed on.

Bai Qi led 200,000 elites to cross the Yellow River north.

The rest of the soldiers and horses, under the leadership of Xiang Yu Jia Xu, entered the Hangu Pass.

Lü Bu also took Li Yuanba and Han Xin's 1st Army of the Three Thousand Dragon Guards to the front line of Hangu Pass.

Lord, Nie Zheng asks to see. During the march, a soldier spoke.

Let him come over. Lu Bu sat in the carriage, thinking about what forced Emperor Han Xian to concede.

Meet the Lord. Nie Zheng rode a fast horse and ran to Lu Bu's car.

What are you here for?

Nie Zheng replied: The war in Hebei has basically been decided. After General Li Jing's troops occupied Yecheng, with our shadow help, they won the support of many local families, and the private soldiers of various families surrendered without a fight. It's just that.... General Li Jing was worried that the lord would not allow him to do this, so he asked the lord whether to use or not to use those big families? Or will it be all wiped out as before?

This is indeed a problem....

Lu Bu has also been hesitating.

In the past, he killed the family and implemented a new policy in order to counter Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Yuan Shao. Now that all the princes have perished, the family is no longer a threat. If he kills again, I am afraid that it will arouse public anger.

I thought about it for a while...

Lu Budao: The family of Hebei has mastered most of the land and shop courtyards in Hebei. These properties must be surrendered. I'll send someone to register them. As for their lives, I can meet them. But educate them....

Be. The ministers will tell General Li Jing to control the family in Yecheng. Nie Zhengdao.

Well.

Nie Zheng said again: Our people in Puyang, Dongjun, found Cao Cao's military advisor Sima Yi. Dare to ask the lord, what to do with him?

Sima Yi.... When he mentioned this name, Lu Bu naturally remembered the Three Kingdoms in history. After the Three Kingdoms, it is really incomprehensible for Sima Yi to seize the world.

Control him first, and then think about what to do with him when I'm done with what I'm done. Lu Budao.

Promise.

Nie Zheng beat his horse and left.

Soon arrived at Hangu Pass.

Han Xin sent people to set up several large camps, built strong fortifications, and sent more than 30,000 men of the 1st Army to occupy various dangerous places. Confronted the tens of thousands of Ma Chao troops at Hangu Pass.

Next.

Xiang Yu and Jia Xu's hundreds of thousands of troops also resisted Hangu Pass.

You may be seated.

In the camp tent, Lu Bu pressed the hand press.

Thank you.... Everyone is seated.

Xiang Yu laughed and said: The battle with Cao Cao is really progressing rapidly. In less than a year, our army was like a bamboo, taking the Central Plains and Dingguan, forcing Cao Cao to commit suicide. Next, Hebei is also in the bag. The great world is about to return to the lord.

Congratulations to my lord.... Everyone said.

It's all listed as a credit. Lu Bu asked someone to bring dozens of jars of fairy wine, and said: This is what I specially brewed for you.

It's been a long time since I've drunk fairy wine, so I'm a little gluttonous. Xiang Yu licked his lips. Pour a bottle, drink it all: hiss... It's so spicy! It's so enjoyable!

Ladies and gentlemen, please. After the guards poured the wine, Lu Bu picked up the wine bottle and said.

Please.

I drank three bottles in a row.

Lu Budao: When I was in Yizhou, I said it. It is easier to eliminate Cao Cao than to eliminate Liu Bei. The reason is not in other places, but in the flat terrain of the Central Plains, and the soldiers, horses, food, and grass of our army can be continued in a steady stream. No matter how brave Cao Cao is, he is difficult to defeat our artillery.

yes, yes....

Everyone discussed for a while the battle to eliminate Liu Bei and Cao Cao.

Now we come to Hangu Pass. Do you know what this means? Lu Bu asked.

Xiang Yudao: Hangu Pass is Hongnong Tongguan Chang'an. The lord wanted to eliminate Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, seize Xiliang outside the Guan, and seek to dominate the world.

After more than 400 years, the Han family has run out of gas, and it is time to change the dynasty. It's just that.... Jia Xu said with some hesitation: This infamy of plotting to usurp the throne should not be borne by the lord. Someone should be sent to persuade Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to let him give up the throne to the lord, so that he can block the mouths of the world.

Ha ha.... Lu Bu said with a smile: Wen He's words are the same as Yuan Zhi. Yuan Zhi also said that Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty should not be harmed. That's why I asked you to pull the army to Hangu Pass, ready to force Emperor Han Xian to abdicate.

The lord is wise.

Jia Xu thought for a while and said: So how is the lord going to persuade the Son of Heaven in Chang'an to abdicate?

I've thought about it... Lu Bu stood up and said: First send a bold and careful person who can speak well to Chang'an, and be very good at Emperor Xiaoming of Han Xian, persuade him to abdicate, and see how he reacts. If he doesn't say yes. Let the shadow buy the ministers of Chang'an, and persuade again. I believe that Emperor Han Xian is a smart man, he should know that I have the whole world in my pocket, and the position of the Son of Heaven is inevitable. He'll say yes.

What does Wenhe think?

So much better. Jia Xu got up and said: The minister is willing to go to Chang'an to achieve this for the lord.

You go?

Lu Bu shook his head and said: You can't go. Although Chang'an is not a tiger's den in Longtan, it is also extremely dangerous. If Emperor Han Xian attacked you, wouldn't you have no return? Let's send someone else.
