Chapter 1034: Chicken ribs

When Lu Bu looked at Wei Yan again, his eyes revealed a fierce look.

The so-called anti-bones, that is, people who have bad intentions and will rebel sooner or later.

Wei Yan was so frightened that cold sweat came out.

He was about to argue, but he heard the white fox young man smile and ridicule him: "General Wei, I just said it casually, don't take it seriously." ”

Although Wei Yan was unhappy in his heart, he didn't dare to show it on his face.

Everyone was relieved, and they also knew that Guo Jia was bohemian and prodigal, and he spoke casually on weekdays, and he always liked to make jokes with others.

Huang Zhong is actually very optimistic about Wei Yan, not only is his martial arts outstanding, but he also has a unique style of commanding troops. As for Wei Yan's betrayal of Liu Qi, it is also normal for people to go to high places and water to flow to low places.

"This is Guo Jia Guo Fengxiao, the son-in-law of the general, and he is currently in the position of sacrificial wine in the army." Someone introduced Wei Yan.

When Wei Yan heard Guo Jia's name, he immediately clasped his fists and said politely: "It turned out to be Guo sacrificial wine, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”

It is not that he respects Guo Jia's duty to sacrifice wine, but that he is Lu Bu's son-in-law.

Knowing that Cao Xing had fallen, Gao Shun showed a touch of sadness on his face, and sighed in his heart: It's a pity.

Although Cao Xing called him Gao Mu on weekdays, Gao Shun felt that this guy with a dead face was also a man with a true temperament.

What's more, Cao Xing has followed Lu Bu for the longest time, and now that his brother is dead, he is the saddest to think of the lord.

After entering the camp, Lu Bu received Gao Shun and others in the Chinese army's tent.

As a son-in-law, Ma Chao naturally met the unsmiling father-in-law early, as early as a few years ago, his wife Gao Yang gave birth to a son for Ma Chao, named Ma Xiao, and Gao Shun was also promoted to become a grandfather.

"Ma family child, I heard that you defeated the Xiliang rebels and recovered the Qiang people. Some time ago, you beheaded the enemy generals, and now your skills are becoming more and more amazing. ”

Huang Zhong looked at Ma Chao, this young boy back then, he let him easily beat with one hand, let alone let one hand now, even if he uses all his strength, he may not be able to beat this kid by half a head.

"The old general praises falsely, how can the kid be stronger than the old general." Ma Chao is much more humble at this time, after all, in his heart, Huang Zhong is one of the few elders who can convince him.

Hearing this, Huang Zhong was obviously extremely useful, stroked a handful of white beards, and said proudly, "Count you as a kid."

The older a person gets, the more they care about their face.

"I heard that the Lord has cut off the water source of the rebels in the city, I believe that in a few days, there will be a riot in the city, and our army can take the opportunity to capture Dongwu Yang City in one go!"

Wei Yan arched his hand and said to Lu Bu in a respectful tone.

Lu Bu shook his head and said indifferently: "The water source in the city is cut off, according to the scout's report, the rebels in the city have begun to scoop up the moat water for drinking." ”

Hearing this, Gao Shun's face showed a thoughtful expression.

Ma Chao, who was next to him, took over the conversation and made a suggestion: "Then it's better to send someone to poison the moat and completely cut off the water supply in the city." After dark, it shouldn't be difficult to touch the moat. ”

"If the water source is completely cut off, Liu Wei should run away again with his subordinates."

Lu Bu said slowly, it was not easy to trap the rebels in the city, he didn't want to force Liu Biao too hard, he stayed up for a while, like boiling a frog in warm water, and when Liu Biao wanted to escape again, he had no strength.

"Dongwu Yangcheng is like chicken ribs to Liu Wei."

"What's the explanation?"

"It's tasteless to eat, and it's a pity to throw it away."

Dongwu Yangcheng is the imperial city where Liu Wei ascended the throne, and if he escaped like this, he must be unwilling.

"So what should we do next?"

"Siege the city, put pressure on the rebels."

Lu Bu's indifferent tone revealed great confidence.

After joining Gao Shun, Lu Bu's soldiers and horses had surged to more than 200,000.

The art of war is cloudy: ten are to surround it, five to attack it, and if it is multiplied, it will be divided, and the enemy will be able to fight, if it is less, it can be escaped, and if it is not, it can be avoided.

The general meaning is to take advantage of the huge gap in strength, so as to form an overwhelming situation, and achieve the goal of surrendering the army without a fight.

The next day, the beginning of the morning.

The sound of heavy horses' hooves and rumbling footsteps came and went, and the soldiers guarding the city tower looked out, only to see countless flags erected in the distance, and the dust was flying.

Frightened, he hurriedly flew to report to Xu Guang.

Under the leadership of Lu Buqin, Ma Chao, Huang Zhong, and Gao Shun each commanded 50,000 troops, and surrounded Dongwuyang City on four sides.

Hearing the news, Liu Bian's heart trembled.

First cut off the water, and now the siege has begun, and Lu Bu clearly wants to attack the heart as a means to constantly exert psychological pressure on the defenders in the city to force the defenders to surrender without a fight.

"I didn't expect Lu Bu to get 200,000 soldiers and horses so quickly."

Liu Wei's face was gloomy, and listening to his tone, he seemed to be extremely unwilling.

"Your Majesty, this is not counting, according to the information obtained, Zhang Liao, who was stationed in Chenliu, Fang Yue in Runan, and Xu Huang, who was in the rebellion against Huainan, were also gathering troops and rushing in the direction of Dongwuyang. If the army is successfully combined, there will be at least 300,000 movable soldiers and horses under Lu Bu's command! ”

Xun Yu sighed heavily, with a deep sadness on his face.

There were only more than 30,000 defenders in the city, of which more than half of the soldiers were poisoned and had not yet recovered their combat strength. Even if the city is strong, I am afraid it will not be able to withstand the large number of soldiers of the Lu army.

If Liu Wei had been willing to listen to his own advice before, he might have been able to escape, but now that Lu Bu's army is outside the city, it will be impossible to surround Dongwuyang, and if he wants to escape, it will be really difficult.

"Could it be that the sky is really going to die?"

Liu Wei's eyes were a little hollow, he had never felt so powerless since he hit the mountain. thought that he could strategize and sit on the affairs of the world, but he ended up in such a situation.

Time also!

Fate!

"Your Majesty, the current plan can only send people to ask Liu Bei in Xuzhou and Cao Cao who ran away for help, hoping that they can think of a way to relieve the siege of Dongwuyang for the sake of the past."

After thinking about it, Xun Yu gave advice.

It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, even if he is resourceful, but he can't make something out of nothing and add troops to the city.

If it weren't for Xun Yu's time running around in the city, appeasing the panicked people, and encouraging the soldiers, I'm afraid these soldiers would have mutinied and defected to the enemy.

In short, the atmosphere in the city is very oppressive.

Now under Liu Wei's command, except for Xu Guang, there are no more available generals.

On the other hand, under Lu Bu's account, the stars gathered, Gao Shun, Huang Zhong, Ma Chao and others are all battle-hardened, and they can take charge of themselves if they are brought out.

Liu Wei is now the Son of Heaven, and if he wants to beg Cao Cao and Liu Bei, who are courtiers, he will inevitably feel a little unhappy. But the current situation is urgent, and no one knows when Lu Bu will launch an onslaught.

After weighing the pros and cons, Liu Wei had to choose one of the two, nodded gloomily and said, "That's it." ”
