didn't understand what Lu Bu wanted to do, of course Xun You wouldn't agree easily.

"Wen Hou wants me to be a military advisor, it's really unreasonable." Xun You finally said: "If Wen Hou asks me something, I will say everything, but the position of military advisor does not have Cao Gong's nod, and I will not agree." ”

Xun You refused to be a military advisor, and Lu Bu seemed to be very disappointed: "Since Xun Gong is unwilling, I can't force you." However, there is something in the army, and I ask Xun Gong not to shirk. ”

"Well said, well said!" Xun Yu agreed.

Lu Bu no longer forced the persuasion, and rode his horse to the team.

Seeing his back, Xun You still felt that something was wrong.

He always felt that every word Lu Bu said was digging a hole.

What's worse is that he can't even see where the pit is.

Xu Huang came to Xun You's side.

He first looked at Lu Bu who went to the front of the team, and then looked at Xun You.

"I always feel that it seems wrong to go to Huainan this time." Xun You whispered.

"I thought it was just me who felt this way." Xu Huang said: "I didn't expect Gongda to notice it. ”

"This time I went to Huainan, we should be more careful." Xun You reminded.

Xu Huang nodded.

Pengcheng to Huainan is not far away.

Lü Bu led the army all the way south, and more than ten days later, they came to the border between Xuzhou and Huainan.

Standing on the horse, Lu Bu raised his right hand.

"All stopped!" The order was then given to halt the advance.

Lu Bu pointed forward and said to Xun You: "Further forward is Zhongli, what does Xun Gong think is appropriate?" ”

Xun You looked up at the sky: "It's still early, I think Wen Hou should lead the army to Zhongli as soon as possible." ”

"By the time Zhongli arrives, it'll be too late." Lu Bu asked, "Could it be that the city will be attacked tonight?" ”

"Wen Hou thinks it won't work tonight?" Xun You asked.

"Xun Gong thinks it's feasible, I'll attack tonight." Lu Bu ordered: "Order, keep marching!" ”

The army then moved on.

Zhongli had been attacked by Lu Bu, and he led his army here again, and there was a panic in the city.

The soldiers defending the city were on standby, and many people were also running around, transporting stones and rolling logs to the city.

When they came to Zhongli, the soldiers set up their tents.

Lu Bu took Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao, accompanied by Xun You and Xu Huang, and approached Zhongli City Wall.

When they were almost close to the wall, the defenders of the city drew their bows and arrows.

The crowd stopped.

"Who's the guard?" Lu Bu shouted.

The head of the city did not respond.

"I came to Huainan this time to clear out the remnants of Yuan Shu." Lu Bu then shouted: "As long as Zhongli dedicates the city, I guarantee that Qiu will not commit any crimes." If you dare to resist, once the city is broken, the chickens and dogs will not stay! I will only give you three days, and if you do not surrender after the deadline, I will lead my army to attack the city. ”

Lu Bu finished speaking and left.

Zhao Yun and the others followed behind him.

The defenders at the head of the city looked at Lu Bu who was leaving, and looked at each other one by one.

Lu Bu once broke through Zhongli, and it had long been a nightmare for this city.

In three days, he will personally lead the army to attack the city.

The defenders and the people of the city were all at risk, worried about what would happen in three days' time.

Outside the city was the Qingzhou army, which was pressed by black, and the defenders of Zhongli were only two or three hundred people.

Not to mention Lu Bu's bravery, even if he came for mediocrity, it was impossible for the city to hold!

Xun You accompanied Lu Bu back to the barracks: "Why didn't Wen Hou order the siege of the city just now?" ”

"Why should I fight a city that you can get without fighting?" Lu Bu smiled at him: "Within two days, the defenders will open the city gate and welcome us in." ”

Zhongli's defenders were only two or three hundred people, but Lu Bu brought as many as 20,000 people, and Xun You certainly wouldn't doubt his speculation.

It's just that Zhongli is too close to Shouchun, and the Huainan army comes here to help, and it won't be available for two or three days.

"Wen Hou gave them three days, and what I was really worried about was actually the reinforcements from Shouchun." Xun You asked, "Isn't Wen Hou worried at all?" ”

"If Shouchun doesn't come to reinforcements, Huainan will be difficult to fight." Lu Bu looked smug: "It's good that they're here, Duke Xun just needs to watch me take Huainan." ”

He then instructed Zhao Yun: "Zilong, you lead two thousand men and horses to set up an ambush between Zhongli and Shouchun. If the enemy comes, lead them in pursuit. Take them to Zhongli and have some fun! ”

Zhao Yun ordered 2,000 people to leave overnight.

Lu Bu then instructed Zhang Liao: "Wen Yuan led 10,000 men to set up an ambush between Zilong and Zhongli, and if Shouchun came with reinforcements, let them go first." Wait until I personally lead the troops to stop them, and then cover them from behind. ”

When Zhang Liao led the soldiers to leave, Xun You shook his head and smiled: "Wen Hou said before that he wanted me to be a military advisor, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary." ”

"How could it not be necessary?" Lu Bu said: "In terms of wisdom, even if there are ten of me, I am not Xun Gong's opponent. I have this ability, I can deal with Yang Hong and Zhang Xun, but it is nothing in front of Xun Gong. ”

Wen Hou smiled. Xun You laughed dryly: "When the army came to Zhongli, taking advantage of the fact that our army's garrison was not stable and the enemy army had not yet figured out its head, two generals Zhao and Zhang were sent one after another. If Shouchun didn't send reinforcements, Zhongli wouldn't be able to hold on for even three days. If reinforcements are sent, Bandao will definitely be intercepted and killed by two generals. Wait until Wen Hou crusades against Shouchun, but it will be easy. ”

"I don't think it's very likely that Shouchun will send reinforcements." Lu Bu smiled.

Xun You was stunned: "Since you think that Shouchun is unlikely to send troops to help, what else does Wen Hou let the two generals go out for?" ”

"Shouchun can't see them, but the defenders can." Lu Bu muttered at Zhongli City Wall: "Tomorrow at the latest, they will send someone to dedicate the city." ”

In fact, Xun You also felt that Shouchun was unlikely to send reinforcements,

The army brought by Lu Bu was 20,000, and when the news of Zhongli's siege reached Shouchun, anyone would think that it was impossible for a mere two or three hundred defenders to hold the city.

Yuan Shu is dead, and Yang Hong, Zhang Xun and others in charge of Huainan only want to be stable, and they don't dare to have any thoughts of making a rash move.

20,000 Qingzhou troops besieged Zhongli, and Lu Bu personally led the troops, how could anyone in Huainan compete with him?

Xun You considered that it was probably useless for Lu Bu to send two generals, so he ridiculed, but he didn't think that the purpose of the people was not to besiege the city at all.

"It's still thoughtful." Xun You said with a smile: "I thought that the two generals were really sent to intercept Shouchun's reinforcements!" ”

Lu Bu laughed: "Yang Hong and Zhang Xun are not people who dare to take risks. I asked Xun Gong for weapons and armor, just to fight them for a long time. Huainan is not as easy to fight as imagined. ”

Xun You nodded: "I will urge someone to send the armor as soon as possible." ”

"Just let them send it to Zhongli." Lu Bu turned his head and looked at Zhongli City Wall again, and his tone was full of confidence: "I will train my army here and wait for the best opportunity to capture Huainan." ”
