Chapter 142: Thank you for your kindness
The battle in the backyard ended quickly.
The speed of the end made Yang Hong and Zhang Xun dumbfounded.
Chen Zhi returned the sword to the sheath, and in front of him lay the hundred guards.
The guards fell to the ground, grunting in pain.
Standing among them, Chen Zhi was like a rooted sculpture, looking at Yang Hong and Zhang Xun without moving.
Zhang Xun's face was full of astonishment, he couldn't believe that someone could really defeat a hundred strong warriors to the ground with one enemy and a hundred.
"General Chen is really brave." Yang Hong came back to his senses first, and his smile on his face was like a blooming flower and walked towards Chen Dao: "With the general's ability, what is Lu Bu?" ”
"As long as the two of you believe me, I don't dare to say that I must take Lu Buxiang's head, and it shouldn't be difficult to drive him back to Xuzhou." Chen Zhi responded proudly.
At first, Zhang Xun felt uncomfortable no matter how he looked at him, but when he saw his strength, his attitude actually took a 180-degree turn.
With a smile on his face, Zhang Xun also came up: "How many soldiers and horses does the general want?" ”
"I'll bring as much as I want." Chen Zhi said: "Whether Shouchun can hold it or not is not in the two, let alone the military generals here." Your only hope is me! ”
Yang Hong and Zhang Xun's faces were a little not good-looking.
Chen Zhi was blunt, and said to his face that they couldn't resist Lu Bu at all, which made the two of them very embarrassed.
But they also know that what Chen Zhi said is the truth.
With their ability, it is impossible to keep Shouchun, otherwise there would be no debate about who stayed here to intercept Lu Bu.
The expressions on the faces of the two were very strange, but Yang Hong was more indifferent.
He smiled and said, "Previously, we did plan to give up Shouchun, but now it is different. With General Chen here, Shouchun is saved. ”
"Shouchun's survival depends on the general." Zhang Xun said: "It's just that the soldiers and horses defending the city have to stay some." ”
"Give me as many soldiers and horses as you want." Chen Zhi said: "There are many soldiers, and I may be more likely to win; If you have fewer soldiers, you have a smaller chance of winning......"
"I see." Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Zhang Xun replied helplessly: "Shouchun only left a thousand defenders, and the other soldiers were handed over to the generals to command." ”
Aside from the 5,000 soldiers taken away by Lei Shu and Chen Lan, there are still more than 20,000 Huainan troops stationed in Shouchun City.
Zhang Xunken handed over the army to him to command, undoubtedly betting all his bets on him.
Chen Zhi arched his hand to him: "Thank you, General Zhang, for your success!" ”
Shouchun had one more fierce general, but Lu Bu was busy receiving the weapons and armor that Xun You had obtained for him in Zhongli.
The people drove the carts into the city.
Lu Bu and Xun You took Zhang Liao and Xu Huang to the side of the road.
Li Dian walked at the front of the line.
Seeing Xun You, he rode over.
"Gongda!" Li Dian bowed his hand and said hello.
"General Li has worked hard all the way." Xun You returned the salute, and then looked at Lu Bu: "Marquis Wen has been to Xudu, and the general should have seen it." ”
Li Dian looked at Lu Bu at this time: "Marquis Wen went to Xudu that day, and actually met the lord as his nephew, and the lord was very worried about this matter. ”
"I was helpless at the beginning." Lu Bu replied: "Suddenly I changed my appearance overnight, and I didn't know how to talk to Cao Gong, so I could only find a reason to prevaricate." When I see Cao Gong in the future, I will definitely bear the guilt of Jing Pleading! ”
Trucks of supplies are still entering the city.
Most of the team entered the city, and Zhao Yun followed in.
Seeing that Lu Bu and the others were talking on the side of the road, he urged him to step forward.
"Wen Hou." Li Dian was the first to greet Xun You, and Zhao Yun only saluted Lu Bu alone.
After killing Lei Ji and Chen Lan, Zhao Yun asked people to tie the two heads together with ropes and hang them on horseback.
After seeing Lu Bu, he mentioned the two heads: "Fortunately, Lei Shu and Chen Lan were killed by me." ”
"Zilong Yongwu, I already knew it would be like this." Lu Bu motioned to the guard next to him to take the head: "This time, I will take your first credit!" ”
"Thank you, Wenhou." Zhao Yun thanked and retreated to the side.
Supplies were brought into Zhongli.
Grain and grass were sent to the barns, while armor and armor were transported directly to the barracks.
The armor was torn and the armor was old, and the new armor and ordnance were delivered, and the officers and soldiers of the Qingzhou Army, who had not seen supplies for a long time, surrounded them one after another.
The officer escorting the supplies shouted: "Get out of the way!" Get out of the way! Get out of the way! ”
Knowing that the supplies were sent to them, the officers and soldiers of the Qingzhou Army got out of the way one after another.
When the cart passed, the soldiers followed reluctantly.
I haven't seen military supplies for too long, and the hearts of the officers and soldiers of the Qingzhou Army are surging.
They all knew very well that these materials were obtained by Lu Bu, and their admiration and worship for Lu Bu deepened.
When Lu Bu and the others came to the barracks, the quartermasters had already distributed their weapons according to the plan they had made before.
The officers and men of the Qingzhou Army, who had no military discipline, actually lined up in a long line honestly, waiting to receive new ordnance and armor.
The soldiers who received the armor and ordnance showed off to their companions who had not yet received them with a smile on their faces.
The Qingzhou army that didn't receive it all turned their faces to the side and didn't cooperate with them to show off.
The armor sent by Cao Cao is different from the uniforms of the Qingzhou Army and the Xuzhou Army.
Brown leather armor and black battle robe are the unique colors of Cao Jun.
Lu Bu and the soldiers didn't care too much about this.
The armor of the past was so tattered that some of the leather armor was so crisp that it fell off at the touch of it.
More soldiers are wearing armor that can't even tighten their waists, and when they run, they shake and shake, and if they go to the battlefield, they will be unable to use their hands and feet.
Wearing such armor into battle, can you protect the soldiers Not to mention, the two armies are fighting, and the one that can't be used is destined to become the target of slaughter by the other side.
Although the new style of armor is Cao Jun's style, it is much better than none after all.
What's more, Lu Bu has already sworn to serve Cao Cao.
Let's not talk about whether he is sincere or fake, the superficial work still has to be done enough!
Lu Bu and the others came to the barracks, and I don't know who shouted: "Wen Hou is here!" ”
The soldiers who had already received it and were waiting to receive the armor turned around and straightened their waists, and shouted in unison: "Wenhou is mighty! ”
From the shouts of the soldiers, you can hear their sincere admiration for Lu Bu.
Xun You looked unfazed, while Li Dian and Xu Huang both frowned.
The higher Lu Bu's prestige, the more difficult it was for Cao Cao to control him, and it was difficult to say whether he would cause any more trouble in the future.
As if he hadn't seen the two of them look at all, Lu Bu asked the soldiers loudly: "Are the ordnance and armor sent by Cao Gong good?" ”
"Good!" The soldiers replied in unison.
"Since it's good, then follow me to Shouchun and take Huainan for Cao Gong!" Lu Bu shouted: "Duke Cao wants the territory of Huainan, but I want to bring all the valuable things here back to Xuzhou, and some beautiful women have to be brought back to reward the soldiers in the army!" ”
"Soldiers, don't you thank Gong Cao for his favor?" Lu Bu raised his voice.
