Chapter 1069: Xu Yu sent an envoy
Lu Bu frowned slightly and said: "This matter is a little difficult to do, but the order Mi Zhu secretly assisted the shadow guard and the flying eagle soldiers to handle this matter, when Ben Hou led the troops to Jizhou, Wang Yue and Zhao Shu each led a hundred people to follow Ben Hou's side. ”
Jia Xu nodded yes, the shadow guard and the Flying Eagle soldiers played a lot of roles in this battle, especially the assassination of the Flying Eagle soldiers and the shadow guards in the princes' army, which won a lot of opportunities for the Bingzhou army to raid the princes' army, and it was the news that the Flying Eagle soldiers and the shadow guard found on the battlefield made the Bingzhou army have a clearer understanding of the situation on the battlefield.
On the battlefield, the acquisition of intelligence is an extremely important link, which side can find more useful information, on the battlefield has a greater initiative, the ability of the eagle soldiers to explore intelligence on the battlefield is obvious to all, at this point, the princes' army is difficult to catch up, with the shadow guard and the eagle soldiers following Lu Bu's side, this time against Jizhou, there is more advantage, not to mention that Guo Jia is leading the troops in Jizhou, with Guo Jia's wisdom and the state army, the elite of the Youzhou army, it is not impossible to capture Jizhou.
In Jizhou, there is such an internal existence as the Zhen family, and the power of the family cannot be ignored at any time, and the time for the state army to rule Hedong is not short, but the family in Wenxi City is able to seize the city gate to welcome the Jingzhou army into the city.
Although the Zhen family is in business, it has a lot of influence in the officialdom of Jizhou.
"Lord, the envoy of Jizhou has arrived at Huguan, and the envoy of Jizhou Xu Yu asks to see him." Dian Wei walked into the room, but there was an unhappy look, before the Jizhou army attacked Huguan, and the state army had just won, Jizhou sent a messenger to come, for the Jizhou army, Dian Wei did not have any good feelings
Lu Bu looked at Jia Xu with a smile and said, "Wenhe, I didn't expect the envoy from Jizhou to come so quickly, it seems that Yuan Shao is not optimistic about the situation in Jizhou." ”
"There is a Youzhou army in Jizhou, this time our army has defeated the princes' coalition army, Yuan Shao has such a move, it is also expected, the lord can first appease the Jizhou envoy, and after the army is reorganized, send troops to Jizhou." Jia Xu said in a low voice.
Although Dian Wei didn't understand what the two had discussed before, when he heard Jia Xuyan say that he sent troops to Jizhou, his eyes lit up, although the Bingzhou army lost a lot of soldiers in this campaign, but the Bingzhou army is an elite division, and it still has the power to attack, and the grain and grass in Bingzhou are enough to support the actions of the Bingzhou army.
"If the lord attacks Jizhou, my old man is willing to be the front." Dian Wei hurriedly said.
Jia Xu glanced at Dian Wei and said, "If General Dian is the front, what about the side of the lord?" ”
Dian Wei shrunk his neck when he heard this, he was not afraid of heaven and earth in the Bingzhou army, and the most feared person was Jia Xu, every time he faced Jia Xu, it seemed that what he wanted could be seen thoroughly for Jia Xu, not only Dian Wei, but also other generals in the Bingzhou army also felt this way when facing Jia Xu.
"Let Xu You come in, Ben Hou wants to see what Yuan Shao has to say." Lu Bu said lightly.
In fact, very early on, Lu Bu planned to let Dian Wei lead a soldier alone and become the only person in charge of the Bingzhou army, but Dian Wei was not enthusiastic about the promotion of his position, but was willing to stay by Lu Bu's side as the commander of the guards, in order to make up for Dian Wei, Lu Bu asked Dian Wei to expand the scale of the guards, and the number of guards also increased to 1,000.
These thousand guards are all composed of cavalry, although the combat effectiveness is not as good as the flying eagle soldiers, nor can ordinary cavalry be compared, Dian Wei is usually extremely strict with the training requirements of the soldiers, whether it is foot combat or horsemanship, they must do better, because the guards in the process of protecting Lu Bu, it is impossible to always appear as cavalry, more often, they have to play the role of foot soldiers.
Seeing Lu Bu again, Xu You's expression was calm, and there was no embarrassment of the princes' defeat and becoming an envoy to make peace again.
Lu Bu squinted his eyes and glanced at Xu You, and when he looked at the two guards behind Xu You, a trace of unhappiness flashed in his expression.
Xu Youhui, who had been quietly observing Lu Bu, whispered a few words, and then the guards left the room.
Being in a high position, Lu Bu certainly understood what the guards following behind Xu You meant, it must be that Yuan Shao did not have as much trust in Xu You as he seemed.
"It's been a long time since I last met Ziyuan, but I didn't expect that Ben Yuan was more and more distrustful of Ziyuan at the beginning, and even when he sent Ben Hou, he had ears and eyes around him." Lu Bu laughed.
Xu You's face turned slightly red and said: "This is the critical time in Jizhou, it is reasonable for Ye Hou to be cautious, and the intention of coming down this time, presumably the Marquis of Jin has also guessed a thing or two." ”
Lu Bu nodded with a smile.
"I don't know what the Marquis of Jin thinks?" Xu You's heart moved, at this time, the best choice for Jizhou is not to attack Jizhou, because although Jizhou has lost a lot of troops outside Huguan, there are still 40,000 people, plus the defenders of Jizhou, the number can reach more than 50,000 people, although the elite of the Bingzhou army, as long as the Jizhou army is based on the city, it will be difficult for the Jizhou army to get benefits, unless the Jizhou army can gather more soldiers and horses.
Moreover, Chang'an at this time was not stable, Ma Chao led the soldiers and horses to seize Longguan, once Ma Teng and Han Sui made peace, it was a big threat to Chang'an.
Of course, if Lu Bu made a desperate bet and mobilized the troops of Bingzhou and Youzhou to attack Jizhou, there was still a great possibility of success, defeating the alliance of princes, which had already made the prestige of the Bingzhou army deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the Jizhou army had not taken advantage of the previous battle against the Bingzhou army.
At present, the most important thing is whether Yuan Shao can successfully repel the Youzhou army after leading the troops back to Jizhou, if the Jizhou army can repel the Youzhou army at a very fast speed, so as to take Julu County and Zhongshan back from the hands of the Youzhou army, the Jizhou army will regain its disadvantage.
Lu Bu said slowly: "How does Ben Hou look at this matter, presumably Ziyuan has already made a conclusion in his heart, Jizhou tore up the covenant of the year and sent troops to attack Huguan, which caused great harm to the people of Hanoi, how many sons of the Jizhou army died in battle because of the actions of the Jizhou army, how could Ben Hou let Yuan Shao get out of the battlefield so easily." ”
Xu You's face changed slightly, the reason why Yuan Shao sent him to come to the state to make peace was because Lu Bu's personality was unpredictable, and things that were often impossible in the eyes of outsiders might become a reality when he arrived at Lu Bu.
"Marquis of Jin, although there is a Youzhou army in Jizhou now, there are 50,000 soldiers who can fight in Jizhou, does the Marquis of Jin think that he can level Jizhou with the help of soldiers and horses?" Xu Youdao.
