The preparation of a large army for battle was originally a tedious and procrastinating matter, especially in that slow-paced era in ancient times.

However, with high morale and the perfect coordination of the cabinet as an institution, all departments were able to operate in a high and efficient manner, and the preparations, which originally took a long time, were all ready in less than half a month.

The army chose an auspicious day of the zodiac to go on the expedition, and the commander of the attack on Zhuo County, of course, was Lu Peng, who only took Yang Feng Xizhen's 30,000 troops, 20,000 recruited people, 1,000 soldiers, and Zhao Yun's 20,000 cavalry queens, with the cooperation of countless merchants, to point troops to the expedition.

Originally, there was no need for Lu Peng to go on this expedition in person, but firstly, Lu Peng really couldn't be idle, and the most important thing was that Lu Peng wanted to test the effectiveness of the newly established cabinet and see if the cabinet could achieve the goals he had envisioned when he was away.

When the army came to Zhuo County, the Jinyi Guard in Zhuo County had already placed all the internal situation in Zhuo County on Lu Peng's desk in detail.

Zhuo County now has 10,000 defenders, but this 10,000 is not an old and weak soldier, because he faces Youzhou, but also strengthened by Yuan Shao, this 10,000 soldiers, can be described as Yuan Shao's elite, Zhuo County is Gongsun Zhan's old nest, the city is high and the walls are deep, and the city is rich in grain and grass. In this long period of time, the city wall was widened and thickened at any cost, and in Yuan Shao's view, this is already an iron wall, impregnable.

And the Taishou of Zhuojun is also Yuan Shao's general Lu Kuang, brother Lu Xiang, and son Lu Weiquan.

"5oo years ago, it was a family, but this time it was really fratricidal, it's a pity." Lu Peng shook his head indifferently with the information: "Now that the army is rectifying and camping, it is idle to be idle, I will take a letter of absence now, shoot to the city, and persuade the father and son, if they can surrender and attach, it is the best." ”

Xu Jie, who was following him, shook his head with a smile: "I think the lord's idea is simply in vain. ”

"Why?"

"The three fathers and sons of the Lu family, the two brothers are powerful, and the nephews are resourceful although they are young, or they would not have been sent by Yuan Shao to take charge alone, and because of this, their judgment of the whole situation is clearer, and Yuan Shao, who is attached to the powerful, is much stronger than you, the half-Youzhou pastor, not to mention that the title of the third prince of Yuan Shao IV is there, but it is much stronger than you, an inexplicable descendant of the gods, so why should people abandon the light and turn to the dark?"

This kind of assertion is very shocking to Lu Peng's fragile heart, in this era, this thing in the door is indeed too powerful, otherwise, it is a guy who actually weaves straw shoes and sells mats, how can he gather so many talents from all over the world? There is also that Xuzhou Mu Taoqian, how can he willingly give up the position of state pastor to him, instead of his own son. To put it bluntly, it's not a matter of identity, this is really a killing thing about status.

"However, no matter what, it is still necessary to salute first and then soldier, and treat it as a dead horse as a live horse doctor." Then look at the sky: "Anyway, we are not in a hurry to attack Zhuojun this time." ”

Xu Jie no longer advises the lord to have nothing to do, in fact, there is no need to write a letter, but it is just half a foot of white cloth, and then an arrow, and there is no loss.

The three of the Lu family, father and son, sat in Zhuo County, and on this day they heard that the enemy outside the city had killed, and the three of them hurriedly went to the city, and they saw the Lu family army outside the city, waving the flag to cover the sky and the sun, and they didn't care about their own strong soldiers and horses here, so they camped in front of their own city with flaws, and it was easy and easy for a while.

So Lu Kuang said to his second brother Lu Xiang: "You are here to give me a glimpse of the enemy's array, and I will take 3ooo Erlang, take advantage of his unstable camp, rush to kill, and extinguish his sharp spirit." ”

Lu Xiang said with a smile: "Lu Peng is just a yellow-mouthed child, visually, he only has 30,000 soldiers, killing chickens with a cattle slaughtering knife, and my brother is the town, I will do this work, I will definitely bring Lu Peng's head back." ”

When the two brothers were fighting, Lu Weixuan, who was respectful behind him, cautiously stepped forward to salute: "Father, uncle, no." ”

The two brothers turned their heads and asked with a smile, "What's wrong with this?" Both of them knew that their boy was very scheming, and they often listened to his opinions, so they wanted to hear what he had to say.

Lu Weixuan said with a smile: "Although Lu Peng is young and rose late, but from the perspective of his entire rise process, he is definitely a person who should not be underestimated, he must have a few brushes under his hands, and now he has an army of 30,000, even if we send out 3ooo sons to raid the military camp he is building, all we can achieve is to harass them, and there is no stake in the overall situation, and if the sneak attack fails, let us 3ooo sons have some losses, but it is not beautiful, it is better for us to rely on the strong city to hold on, In this future offensive and defensive battle, wouldn't it be more secure to slowly consume the morale of their troops? ”

The two brothers glanced at each other, and also felt that this was indeed the case, the task they were sent to hold this Zhuo County, there is really no need to take any risks, and it can't be good if it wins when the time comes, once it fails, it can rub the morale of the army and lose strength, as long as there is one more person to defend the city, it can withstand the attack of at least five people, and it is one less to lose one.

So the two brothers laughed at each other, and the matter was over, waiting for Lu Peng's attack.

At this time, a war horse galloped out of the enemy camp on the opposite side, a general, silver helmet and silver armor, carrying a double halberd on his back, holding a fine bow in his hand, galloping in front of the city non-stop, and he was able to reach the front of the three people in the city.

Such an accurate head made the two brothers change color at that time, if an arrow was shot at him just now, although he could dodge it, he would still be disgraced.

The general didn't stop, just hit the horse and laughed and walked away.

Lu Weixuan personally removed the arrow from the flagpole, and a letter was tied to the shaft, and handed it to his father with both hands.

Lu Kuang unfolded the letter, but it was plain, it turned out that the main general Lu Peng on the opposite side was using the name of a family to invite him to surrender in Nacheng, and promised that the Taishou of Zhuojun was still Lu Kuang, and the son of the second brother was named the captain and worshiped the captain.

Seeing this letter, which was like child's play, Lu Kuang couldn't help laughing, a small warlord, but with the land of four counties, he wanted to let himself who had a huge backer and a bright future surrender without a fight, it was a big joke.

Since both sides have nothing to say, what are they waiting for, immediately implement the plan formulated by the cabinet, "encircle the point and send reinforcements." ”

Since such a plan has been set, it is necessary to make the script sufficient, and it is necessary to hurt his three own families and let him keep asking for help in order to attract Yuan Shao to send troops.
