Chapter 115: It's Pengcheng who is going
The families of the Qingzhou army continued to migrate to Pengcheng.
Zang Ba also led 2,000 soldiers to escort the family members of the original rampant Xi to Pengcheng.
30,000 Qingzhou troops gathered in Mount Tai to send off the last group of family members, and Lu Bu led the army south to Xuzhou.
The legend of Lu Bu's promise to the Qingzhou Army and his return to his youth has long spread among the soldiers.
The Qingzhou Army, which was already desperate for the future, was rejuvenated by Lu Bu's return.
The Yellow Turbans are all battle-hardened warriors, but their lack of training and outdated equipment limit their combat effectiveness.
Lu Bu rode the red rabbit and walked at the front of the team.
The mighty army followed him.
The Qingzhou army has a large number of soldiers, but the equipment of the soldiers is too poor.
In the sun, Sensen's spears were rusty, and the armor of the soldiers was old and broken.
Carrying such weapons and protective gear into battle is undoubtedly sending the soldiers to death.
Lu Bu has not yet returned to Xuzhou, and Xiahoudun has already returned to Xudu.
in the council chamber.
After Cao Cao listened to Xiahoudun's return, his brows furrowed tightly: "Are you saying that it was Lu Fengxian who came back to Xudu?" ”
"Exactly." Xiahoudun replied: "He didn't know what method he used, but he actually turned from a middle-aged man to a teenager. And I think that Lu Fengxian now is very different from the past. ”
Xiahoudun just said that the young general who came to Xudu last time was Lu Bu, and everyone was already surprised.
He also said that Lu Bu today is very different from the past, and the Cao family's staff and generals present were even more booed.
Everyone was talking about the possibility of this kind of thing.
"Is Yuan Rang sure that person is Lu Fengxian?" Cao Cao frowned and didn't speak, and one of the people sitting there asked about Xiahoudun.
This man was about forty years old, and judging from his appearance alone, one thought that he must be a generous old man.
He is Xun Yu, whom Cao Cao has always relied on.
"It's sure it's him." Xiahoudun said: "There is only one Lu Bu in the world, and no one else can replace him. Even if it looks like it, it is impossible to learn martial arts. ”
Lu Bu's reputation for bravery has long spread all over the world.
Everyone here didn't believe that there would be another Lu Bu in the world.
Everyone looked at each other.
Cao Cao raised his head and looked at Xiahoudun: "I know what Yuan Rang said." ”
"He also begged for the Qingzhou Army from me." Xiahoudun lowered his head: "Xuzhou has few soldiers and little food, but Huainan is a hundred-legged insect that dies but does not stiffen......"
"Yuan gave it to him?" Lu Bu begged for the Qingzhou army, and Cao Cao's face suddenly turned pale.
"Given." Xiahoudun replied: "If Cao Gong thinks that he shouldn't give it, I'll go and ask for it back." ”
"I'm afraid I won't be back." Guo Jia, who was sitting next to him, shook his head: "Although the Qingzhou Army has no weapons, and the grain and grass are also self-sufficient, they have been negligent in training in the past few years and have no combat strength at all, but after all, they have 30,000 people. The so-called ants gnaw on tigers, although they are weak and small, they are not easy to deal with if they have a large number of people. Since Lu Fengxian got it, how could he return it to the general? ”
"I told him I was just borrowing ......," Xiahoudun was stunned.
Guo Jia asked, "Is the talisman in the general's hand or in his hand?" ”
Looking at Guo Jia blankly, Xiahou Dian's lips moved.
There is no need for him to answer, Guo Jia has already got the answer: "The soldier talisman is no longer in the general's hands, and the Qingzhou army is afraid that it will not come back." ”
"Lu Fengxian has the Qingzhou Army, and its strength is no longer comparable to that day." Cao Cao said: "Although he is serving me, I always feel uneasy, what should I do?" ”
"Now that he has obtained the Qingzhou Army, Cao Gong might as well let him take it." Guo Jia said: "Although the Qingzhou army has a lot of people, they are negligent in training, and they have little combat power on the battlefield. Let him go to fight a few more times, and there will be no one. ”
"Do you want to give him the Qingzhou Army?" Cao Cao said: "It's useless to keep them. ”
"The lord should not be so generous." Guo Jia replied: "Although Lu Fengxian got the Qingzhou Army and also got the Tiger Talisman, the lord did not let go, and he never dared to invest too much in the Qingzhou Army. There will be some estrangement between this army and him. ”
"It's still Bonghyo who is thoughtful." Cao Cao nodded, then looked at the person sitting on the right.
This person looked to be nearly fifty years old, with dark yellow skin, a few sparse pockmarks on his face, and a pair of triangular eyes that gave people the impression of a yin owl.
He is also surnamed Xun, although he is much older than Xun Yu, he is Xun Yu's nephew in terms of generation.
Xun Yu, at the beginning, he and Xun Yu successively served Cao Cao.
In terms of strategy, he is also one of the best among Cao Cao's staff.
Cao Cao's gaze fell on Xun You's face: "Gongda, shouldn't you also leave for Xuzhou?" ”
"I'll leave early tomorrow morning." Xun You got up and took the order.
"When I arrived in Xiapi, Gongda had to urge Lu Feng to map Huainan as soon as possible." Cao Cao said: "There is news from Tanma that Liu Biao in Jingzhou is ready to move, and he can't resist it with the Huainan army. ”
"I'm not going to Xiapi this time." Xun You replied: "I'm going to Pengcheng. ”
"Peng Cheng?" Cao Cao had slaughtered Pengcheng, and he frowned at the mention of there: "Why? ”
"Have you heard that many people have moved to Pengcheng recently?" Xun You asked.
Cao Cao nodded: "I have heard a little." ”
"Those people must be the families of Lu Fengxian's recruited army." Xun You analyzed: "They went to Pengcheng, of course Lu Fengxian will not return to Xiapi." ”
Cao Cao suddenly said: "No wonder Gongda is going to Pengcheng ......"
Just as Xun You was going to Pengcheng, a guard hurriedly walked in.
Bowing to Cao Cao, the guard handed over a letter with both hands.
Glancing at the guard suspiciously, Cao Cao took the letter and began to browse.
Before he finished reading, his brow was already furrowed.
slapped the letter on the table, and Cao Cao said angrily: "What a Dong Cheng, you dare to play these tricks behind your back!" ”
The crowd looked at him suspiciously.
Guo Jia asked, "Lord, what's wrong?" ”
"Look at it." Cao Cao picked up the letter, and the guard stepped forward to take it and forward it to Guo Jia.
Guo Jia's face was also very bad after reading it, and passed it to Xun Yu.
One by one, the crowd passed it on.
After everyone saw it, their faces became very solemn.
"My lord." Guo Jia said: "Since Dong Cheng dares to do this, he can't delay it. ”
"Judging from the letters, they have been planning this for a long time." Cao Cao said: "If the planning has been perfected, it should have been done to me a long time ago." There was no movement for a long time, and they were not ready. ”
"Wu Zilan, Wu Shuo, Wang Zifu and others' soldiers and horses are not in Xudu." Xun You said: "It will take some days for them to mobilize soldiers and horses, so Cao Gong might as well take advantage of it now." ”
Cao Cao nodded first, and then stood up: "Order, immediately arrest Dong Cheng, Wu Shuo, Wu Zilan, Wang Zifu and others, and send them to the Tingwei Mansion for interrogation." ”
