When Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan came to Shouchun, Zhang Liao did not show up.

It wasn't until they left that Zhang Liao came to Yan Xiang's side.

Looking at the backs of Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan, he said that Shouchun belonged to them.

Yan Xiang shook his head: "Shouchun belongs to us, but whether we can sit firmly or not is not certain." ”

Zhang Liao asked in surprise: "Could it be that Zhou Yu can still break Shouchun City?" ”

"It's not Zhou Yu, it's Cao Cao." Yan Xiang said: "Cao Cao is letting Wen Hou now, it's not that he doesn't want to take Wen Hou down, but it's not time for him to take it down. ”

"Is Cao Cao waiting for the Yuan family in Hebei?" Zhang Liao suddenly asked.

Yan Xiang nodded: "Xuzhou and Huainan are not places where people can be stable......

Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan were defeated by Zhou Tai, and Lu Bu led the army in the direction of Shouchun.

There was still some distance before Shouchun, and Lu Bu got the news that Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan were ambushed by Zhou Tai.

He was already thinking about how to drive the two away after defeating Zhou Yu.

Zhou Tai did him a great favor.

After getting the news of Cao's defeat, Lu Bu not only did not worry at all, but also felt very happy.

Zhou Yu's department had only 15,000 people.

Sun Ce and Zhang Zhao's tens of thousands of horses were driven to Anhui City by him, and Zhou Yu, who only had 15,000 people, should still be taken into account?

After walking for half a day to reach Shouchun, Lu Bu chose an open place to settle down.

In the middle of the night, Lu Bu, who had taken off his armor, walked out of the tent.

In the barracks, one or two teams of night guards often walked by.

"Wen Hou hasn't slept yet?" Standing in the open space, looking up at the starry sky, Zhao Yun's voice came from behind Lu Bu.

"Why didn't Zilong fall asleep?" He looked back and asked.

"My uncle and I are on duty at midnight." Zhao Yun replied: "Uncle until the first half of the night, uncle until the second half of the night." It won't be long before Uncle Zhi will replace me. ”

"Do you think the stars are particularly bright tonight?" Lu Bu looked up at the sky again: "The night sky is also much better than before. ”

"It's not that the night sky is beautiful, but that Wen Hou is in a good mood." Zhao Yun said: "Since we came to Huainan, we have won many battles, if we are in a bad mood, then it is not right." ”

"Winning many battles......" Lu Bu shook his head: "I have fought so many battles, but I feel as if I haven't gained any benefits." ”

"It is said that Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan have left Huainan, and Shouchun has fallen into the hands of Wenhou, isn't it a benefit?" Zhao Yun said: "The people who followed Wenhou to Zhongli at the beginning will be able to return to Shouchun in a short time. Wen Hou's status in the hearts of the military and civilians will also be raised even more. ”

"But that's not what I want." Lu Bu said: "Money and food can be obtained, and the population can also be increased through fertility. But where do I get talent? Conquer the world, can't you just fight a few of us? ”

"Wen Hou means ......" Zhao Yun seemed to understand, but he didn't seem to understand.

"Talents who strategize and win thousands of miles." Lu Bu said: "There is only Chen Gongtai by my side, and it is obviously not enough to survive in the troubled times!" ”

"Don't worry, Wenhou, when the prestige is higher in the future, there will naturally be talents to vote." Zhao Yun said with relief.

"When will that be?" Lu Bu turned his head and smiled at Zhao Yun: "Actually, there is one in front of me, I don't know if we can stop him!" ”

"What Wen Hou said is ......" Zhao Yun seems to understand.

He probably guessed who Lu Bu was talking about, but he didn't dare to ask.

After all, that person has an extraordinary relationship with Sun Ce.

Even if Lu Bu captures him, it may not make him die to the ground.

"Zhou Gongjin." Lu Bu said: "Jiangdong Zhoulang is famous, and there will be no vain under the so-called fame, if you can get him......"

"It is said that the relationship between Zhou Yu and Sun Ce is not ordinary, and he is afraid of arresting him, and he refuses to serve Wenhou." Zhao Yun shook his head: "For a character like this, I think it's better to kill him directly, so as not to become a disaster in the future." ”

"So loyalty, just because the faith has not collapsed." Lu Bu said: "If I can make him defeated again and again, and there is no way back, does Zilong think he will vote for me?" ”

"Wen Hou means ......" Zhao Yun was confused.

"Zilong, have you ever seen a cat scratching a mouse?" Lu Bu asked.

"I really haven't paid attention to it." Zhao Yun shook his head.

"The cat scratches the mouse and catches the play, and the play is almost done." Lu Bu said: "In the end, the cat has not gotten tired of playing, but the mouse has no faith in escaping. Only then will the cat eat it. ”

"Zhou Gongjin is not an ordinary character." Zhao Yun reminded: "Wen Hou is better to be careful when he fights against him." ”

"Of course I'll be careful when he still has the strength." Lu Bu said: "Tomorrow we are close to Shouchun, and Zhou Gongjin will definitely raise troops to attack. We'll have to make him suffer. ”

"Zhou Gongjin is not Sun Ce." Zhao Yun replied: "I'm worried that he has already made arrangements at this time. ”

"What about deployment?" Lu Bu smiled slightly: "When the war starts, I will lead the troops to rush and kill, and you and your uncle will go to the back of the palace." No matter what Zhou Gongjin calculates, we will use a method to deal with him. ”

"Dare to ask Wen Hou what is the method?" Zhao Yun asked.

"The army is standing still in the rear, and a small number of soldiers and horses are raided to seize the commander!" Lu Bu replied: "It is said that there is still a Zhou Tai by his side, I will capture Zhou Tai first, and see what else he can make in the future." ”

"If Wen Hou can really capture Zhou Tai, it will be like cutting off one of Zhou Yu's arms." Zhao Yun replied: "You can really play with Zhou Yu like a cat catching a mouse." ”

"It's not early, Wen Hou will fight in person tomorrow, please go back early and rest." Zhao Yun reminded again.

Lu Bu replied: "Wait until Uncle Zhi comes to take over, and Zilong can rest well." Tomorrow I expect a big fight. ”

"Don't worry, Wen Hou, I will." Zhao Yun responded, and sent Lu Bu outside the tent before turning around and leaving.

Lu Bu slept very late, and Zhou Yu was not idle.

Jiangdong Army Marshal's Tent.

Oil lamps were lit in the tent, and Zhou Yu and several generals were discussing strategies to meet Lu Bu.

"Youping ambushed Xiahoudun and fought Xiahouyuan very beautifully." Zhou Yu said: "The two of them went to Shouchun, but they were turned away. They had nowhere else to go, so they had to return to Xudu. Now only us and Lu Bu are left in Huainan. ”

"If Bo Fu is still in Huainan, we have a good chance of winning." Zhou Tai said: "With just a few of us, I'm afraid it's not so easy to fight." ”

"Didn't General Zhou think about taking Shouchun away?" Ling Cao said to Zhou Yu: "If our army captures Shouchun, we will be able to enter the city and defend it, and it is better to resist the city than to fight against Lu Bu in the field." ”
