In mid-June 198, it had been some time since Liu Wei's army set off from Jinyang.

However, the army of 70,000 is mighty, and it will naturally take time.

"At this time, the news should have reached Lu Bu, but I don't know how he will react."

Liu Wei said as he hurried, although he said that he had tried his best to delay the time for issuing the edict.

However, this ancient is not as good as modern times, and it is said that military fighters can take off and go directly.

So no matter how much time was squeezed, it did leave Lu Bu with a free time difference.

It's just that what I'm doing now is to minimize this time difference.

"Judging from Liang, there is a good chance that this Chen Gong will suggest that Lu Bu take the initiative to send troops to Xuzhou, so that it is possible to turn passive into active."

Zhuge Liang was beside Liu Wei, then thought about it and said.

This point had already been thought about before even when Liu Wei didn't ask.

"Send troops to Xuzhou." Liu Wei nodded after listening to Zhuge Liang's words, I have to say that this is indeed a good idea.

Now that his 70,000 troops have not yet arrived, there are only more than 30,000 people in Xuzhou, plus other irregular soldiers, and only more than 40,000 people have died.

These people together do not have as many people as Lu Bu, after all, they fought with Liu Bei in Xuzhou before, and the consumption of Xuzhou is not small.

"In this way, it is necessary to speed up the pace of the march, otherwise, I am afraid that the first battle will start from Xuzhou."

Liu Wei said with a solemn face, after all, Lu Bu is brave, even if Xuzhou Guan Yu and Chen Zhi and Huang Zhong can stop Lu Bu.

But Lu Bu still has Zhang Liao and Gao Shun by his side, the two of them are not ordinary people, and it will be difficult for others to stop the two of them.

It seems that this battle against Lu Bu is even more difficult to gnaw on this bone than I imagined.

"Jinhe, you go to Xuzhou in person, hurry up, be sure to let Yun Chang and Hansheng pay attention to Xuzhou, don't rush in."

The more Liu Wei thought about it, the more he felt uneasy, so he looked at Zhang Jinhe on the side and said.

After Zhang Jinhe listened to Liu Wei's words, he answered and left.

On the night of June 17, Shouchun, 10,000 horses led by Lu Bu set off in the direction of Yidu, Xuzhou.

Not only that, Gao Shun also led 10,000 horses to Langya, intending to attack Xuzhou from the direction of Langya.

The candidate and Lu Qiling led 10,000 horses towards Junshan.

At this time, Lu Qiling was dressed in a strong suit, and there was also a long halberd in her hand, a bit like a crescent halberd, but there was an extra curved halberd branch.

30,000 horses in three directions, but although they have different directions, they all have only one destination.

That is Xuzhou, and Xuzhou is their destination.

In Xuzhou City, Chen arrived in Xuzhou at this time, and it was not long before he arrived.

However, he also met Guan Yu and told him Liu Wei's thoughts.

"Now that Your Majesty's army has not arrived, let's guard Xuzhou, but we must be cautious." Huang Zhong was the first to speak.

"I also agree with what General Huang said." Tao Ying also spoke at this time.

"Then I don't know what the two of you say, what should we do?" Guan Yu naturally knew the importance of Xuzhou, so he asked.

"I thought we should be on guard, especially the checkpoint city near Shouchun." Chen Zhi spoke after listening to Guan Yu's words.

"In this way, I'm afraid it's not necessary, Your Majesty's army is about to arrive, Lu Bu is not good at defending Shouchun, how dare he take the initiative to send troops?"

After Zhou Cang listened to Chen Dao's words, he shook his head, feeling that there was no need for this.

In his opinion, since he and Guan Yu surrendered to Liu Wei, they have been guarding in Xuzhou.

Even when Xuzhou had just experienced a major war and was the weakest, Lu Bu did not attack Xuzhou, and I am afraid that he would not dare to do so at this time.

After listening to Zhou Cang's words, Tao Ying also quite agreed with Zhou Cang's words, although he also felt that he should be cautious, but he didn't believe that Lu Bu would send troops.

As for the reason for the judgment, it is naturally the same as the previous Zhou Cang.

"No, don't underestimate it, Lu Bu was reluctant to attack before, it was because he didn't want to take the initiative to tear his face with His Majesty, but now that it's this time, why do you need to care about this?"

Guan Yu shook his head and denied the views of the two of them, but instead said with a solemn face.

"If that's the case, then be on guard and be prepared." Huang Zhong nodded and said.

"In this way, then Langya, Yidu, Junshan, Xiaopei, these places must send additional personnel."

"Although Xiao Pei is closer, it is difficult to guarantee that Lu Bu will not make dangerous moves." Guan Yu looked at the map and said.

"If there is news of a big person coming at this time, it will be much more accurate." Huang Zhong sighed.

If you speculate on four points, the people will be scattered at that time, but there is no way to do it.

"Then we will wait for a day, if it is big, it is best if there is news, if not, how about deploying troops everywhere?" Considering the assignment of personnel, Guan Yu opened his mouth to propose after hearing Huang Zhong's words.

If Lu Bu really sent troops, then Da He would definitely have a way to send the news in the shortest possible time.

Guan Yu and Huang Zhong's prediction was not wrong, the next day, but it was night, the news of who was big came to him.

After receiving the news that Lu Bu personally came in three armies, Guan Yu soon began to discuss with Huang Zhong about resisting the enemy.

"Lu Bu is brave, I'm afraid you and I can't resist it, and I'm afraid Yidu can only be guarded by you and me."

Although Guan Yu was arrogant, after listening to Huang Zhong's words, he also nodded in approval, he had fought with Lu Bu at the beginning, and it was almost impossible for one person to defeat Lu Bu.

"In this way, Langya will go from uncle to uncle, and General Xiaoshan Zangba will definitely be foolproof." Chen Zhi took the initiative to speak.

"Then Junshan will be handed over to you by Zhoucang, you only need to defend Junshan, you don't have to fight." Finally, Guan Yu looked at Zhou Cang and said.

"As for Tao Yinggongzi, Xuzhou City will be handed over to you."

Everyone had no opinion on Guan Yu's arrangement, so they naturally began to act quickly.

Three days later, when Zhang Jinhe came to Xuzhou quickly, he found that Guan Yu and the others were long gone.

Tao Ying told Zhang Jinhe about the incident, and although he had gone in vain, he was also relieved in his heart.

"I thought it was too late." Zhang Jinhe looked at Tao Ying and said.

"Not really." Tao Ying said with a smile after listening to Zhang Jinhe's words.

He looked at Zhang Jinhe and quickly thought of something, "Jinhe, you have been following Your Majesty for a long time, and your martial arts have improved a lot over the years." ”

"Hmm." Although he didn't understand why Tao Ying asked, he still nodded.

Since the destruction of the village, he has been by Liu Wei's side, and he usually trains according to the standards of Long Wujun, and usually asks Zhao Yun for advice.

So although I don't dare to say how powerful it is, it's really not a level compared to before.

"Now that General Zhou Cang has gone to Junshan alone, I have to be in charge of the affairs in the city and can't get out, why don't you go and help?"

Tao Ying felt that with Zhang Jinhyuk here, at least Zhou Cang could be regarded as someone to help, and one more person would be one more force.

"This..."Zhang Jinhe hesitated a little, after all, he was here to deliver the letter, and he did not get other orders from Liu Wei.

"I know you're worried about something, but why can't you go to help General Zhou Cang, besides, it's not wrong to send a letter to the barracks, right?" Tao Ying looked at Zhang Jinhe and said with a smile.

Zhang Jinhe thought about it and nodded, Although Your Majesty trusts me now, he is only a captain after all.

If he can make meritorious service this time, he will definitely not stop there when he talks about meritorious deeds and rewards in the future.

"In that case, then I will deliver the letter myself."

Zhang Jinhe looked at Tao Ying and then spoke, resting for a while before speaking.

Tao Ying nodded, and then sent Zhang Jinhe away.

At the head of Yidu City, Guan Yu and Huang Zhong had also come to Yidu at this time.

Before they had time to catch their breath, at this time, Lu Bu under the city had already led the men and horses to set up a formation.

"Listen, people in the city, if you surrender, I can consider sparing your lives, or else there will be no one left when the city is broken." Lu Bu shouted as he looked in the direction of the city.

"It's a big breath, Guan wants to see what you are capable of." Guan Yu was naturally the first to be unhappy, so he immediately replied.

Lu Bu glanced at Guan Yu and sneered, also full of arrogance.

"Lu Feng is here first, who dares to come down and fight."
