The fire that rose to the sky scorched the earth, standing in any corner of Yixian, you could feel the heat wave coming to your face, Zhou Cang looked at the granary shrouded in firelight, with a bit of pain in his eyes, but Lu Bu looked at the more than 500 hesitant Xiliang Army with cold eyes, and said coldly: "Although you help the evil and attack each other for no reason, resulting in the tragic death of my sons and daughters on the battlefield for no reason, they should have been killed, but this general has the virtue of a good life in heaven, let go of the horse today, go back and tell Ma Chao, quickly retreat, Otherwise, General Ben will not only drive him out of Sanfu, but one day, he will raise troops to the west and take Xiliang! ”

When the organic Xiliang soldiers heard this, they hurriedly flattered: "Thank you for the general's grace of not killing." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Let's go!" Lu Bu waved his hand, keeping these people here is to let them see the granary burned with their own eyes, so that Ma Chao will not have a trace of luck.

After a period of gratitude to Dade, the Xiliang army cautiously broke away from the encirclement of Lu Bu's army, and saw that Lu Bu really kept his promise and did not issue a killer, so he immediately cheered and rushed out of the city, each of them either went to the Ma Chao military camp or reported to the candidate military camp.

Lu Bu then led the men and horses out of the city, looking at the city on fire behind him, Zhou Cang asked with a bitter face: "Lord, where are we going to fight now?" ”

"No more fighting." Lu Bu said with a smile: "Without food and grass, Ma Chao and the candidate army will be scattered, what else to fight?" Find a place, ambush Ma Chao, and end this road first. ”

Fight all the way and let go all the way, this is the strategy set by Lu Bu, Ma Teng and Han Sui are now called brothers, but after all, they are two whole and not one whole, brothers can turn against each other, let alone brothers with different surnames, as for choosing Ma Chao, there is no other reason, just because he is famous, at least stronger than the candidate who has never even heard of it, and whether according to romance or history, Ma Chao's character is the type that is rigid and impulsive, with great ability, but he loses his troops and loses his generals, and his heart will definitely be unbalanced. Under this extreme difference, I am afraid that even if Lu Bu does not provoke, it is very likely that something will happen.

"Won't fight?" Zhou Cang looked at Lu Bu blankly, his simple head was a little unable to keep up with Lu Bu's rhythm.

"Let's go, Yixian is the only way for the Xiliang Army to return, find a good place to prepare to start, we have plenty of time." Lu Bu said with a smile.

The group was about to leave, when a sudden billowing of smoke and dust suddenly rolled up on the post road ahead, and a cavalry was rushing towards this side.

"So fast?" Lu Bu frowned, and with a wave of his hand, the cavalry behind him suddenly took an attacking posture.

Zhou Cang turned over and dismounted, ran quickly to the front of the military formation, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Stop!" "An archer shot a cluster of arrows straight ahead, and the feathered arrows cut a graceful arc in the air, falling less than twenty paces in front of the opponent's cavalry.

"Stop!" A crisp female voice sounded in the opposing formation, and dozens of knights stopped their horses in unison, and saw a silver-armored female general flying out of the military formation, and in an instant, she had come to a place less than a hundred steps in front of Lu Bu.

In Zhou Cang's strange gaze, the female general turned over and fell off the horse, knelt down on one knee in front of Lu Bu and said respectfully: "The last general, Lu Lingqi, see the lord." ”

The muscles in Lu Bu's face twitched unnaturally twice, looked at his cheap daughter coldly, and snorted, "Who asked you to come?" I also brought all the remaining cavalry in Chang'an City, who gave you the guts!? ”

"Mr. Gongtai asked me to come, and these people are not what I want to bring, but Mr. Gongtai asked me to bring them." Lu Lingqi was a little aggrieved, and stubbornly raised her head to meet Lu Bu's gaze.

"What?" Lu Bu's face changed, and his first reaction was that Chen Gong had rebelled, otherwise why would he transfer the few remaining troops in Chang'an to this side, but if he thought about it carefully, it was unlikely, not to talk about the question of loyalty or disloyalty, he had followed him for thousands of miles, and he was about to win a big victory, with his own foundation, Chen Gong had no reason to betray himself, frowned and looked at Lu Lingqi and said, "What happened?" ”

"A lot of things have happened in the city in the past few days, Mr. Gongtai has arrested a lot of people, originally I wanted Xiong Kuohai to come over, but Xiong Kuohai said that the lord's order is to protect Mr. Gongtai, live or die, and the matter is more important, and in the end Mr. Gongtai can only ask me to come forward and bring someone over." Lu Lingqi stood up and waved her hand at the cavalry behind: "Mr. Gongtai asked me to come this time, mainly to let me bring this old poor sour over." ”

At this moment, the cavalry had already approached, and in the crowd, Jia Xu, who was dressed in a green robe and had three locks of long beard, was wrapped in a group of soldiers with broad shoulders and round waists and murderous spirit, which was particularly conspicuous.

"Old poor and sour, come and tell your father." Lu Lingqi shouted at Jia Xu in the team.

"Yes." Jia Xu smiled bitterly, turned over and dismounted, and said to Lu Buji: "See the lord." ”

Lu Bu narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Jia Xu's gaze, with a bit of inquiry, he didn't care much about Lu Lingqi's disrespectful title, although theoretically speaking, Jia Xu is his subordinate, but in fact he is no different from a prisoner, don't think about any respect here before he really returns to his heart for a day.

"Mr. Wenhe is here, I don't know what is important?" Lu Bu was also a little confused about the purpose of Chen Gong asking Lu Lingqi to bring Jia Xu.

"I'm here to keep my promise." Jia Xu laughed.

"Oh?" Lu Bu remembered that before he left, he asked Jia Xu to prepare a plan for himself to divide Ma Teng and Han Sui, nodded and said, "It's not too late to go back and talk about this matter, why don't you come here to avoid danger?" ”

"But I thought that this was the right time." Jia Xu laughed.

"Ma Chao is a candidate, hit one, put one, such a strategy, Mr. Wenhe doesn't have to come up with it." Lu Bu sneered, he has decided to fight Ma Chaofang as a candidate, so that although he can plant the seeds of disagreement between the two families, but if he wants to get practical results, I am afraid it is not easy, Han Sui is also an old fox, how can the Yellow River Jiuqu be a wasted name?

Perhaps because he was a loser, Han Sui was not famous in history, but Lu Bu had the memory of his predecessor and knew that Han Sui's ability was not low, and in the early years, he gathered the Qianghu rebels, and in the name of punishing eunuchs, he successively defeated Huangfu Song, Zhang Wen, Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian and other famous figures.

Zhang Wen didn't mention him first, Huangfu Song was a famous general in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, one of the main forces in the Battle of the Yellow Turban, even Cao Cao and Yuan Shao had served under him, Dong Zhuo was also a fierce general in Xiliang in his early years, but later his authority became heavier and his martial arts were wasted.

It is said that the best way to look at a person's ability is not to listen to what others say, but to see his opponent, with such a glorious history, how can he be incompetent? has successively pitted all kinds of teammates, but the mix is getting better and better, which in itself is enough to show its ability.

Jia Xu was slightly taken aback in his heart, but looking at Lu Bu's disapproving look, he said quietly: "But I don't know who the lord wants to beat?" Who to put? ”

"Is there a difference?" Lu Bu didn't answer positively, the biggest ability of these top strategists is not their own ability in Lu Bu's opinion, but that mouth, as long as he reveals a little bit of his own thoughts, he can make another plan for himself, and what he says is the truth.

"Naturally." Jia Xu twisted his beard and said with a smile: "If you beat Ma Chao and release the candidates, although it can also play a certain role, it is not obvious, but on the contrary, it is completely different." ”

"Go on." Lu Bu nodded indifferently, without the slightest expression on his face.

Jia Xu was a little unsure, but he had already arrived here at this time, and he was not perfunctory about this plan, but seriously thought about the pros and cons.

"Ma Shoucheng is more than loyal and brave, but his strategy is insufficient, if he beats Ma Chao, even if Ma Chao has a grudge in his heart, Han Sui can easily calm the resentment in Ma Teng's chest with his three-inch incorruptible tongue, but if it is the opposite, it is different." Jia Xu smiled and said: "The Ma family father and son are already known for their prestige in Xiliang, and in terms of power, they are already stronger than Han Sui, if the lord can kill the candidate and drive his subordinates to Ma Chao, and let Ma Chao incorporate these candidates, the strength and weakness between Han Sui and the Ma family father and son will become more and more disparity, Han Wenyue is known as the Yellow River Jiuqu, and he is suspicious by nature, if the forces of the two sides are equal or slightly worse, he will not calculate Ma Teng, but if the strength is very different, it will be different, plus Ma Chao absorbs Han Sui's troops, I am afraid that it will not take long for the two sides to fight each other." ”

Lu Bu nodded, the reason is actually very simple, the so-called allies, under normal circumstances, can only be achieved in two situations, one is in the case of strong external pressure, the alliance has to be formed to resist the strong, just like the Sun and Liu families in the Battle of Chibi, and the other is that most of the allies are in the situation that the forces are equal, and no one can help but who is unwilling to lose each other.

If there is a huge difference in strength, then it is not an ally, but a vassal relationship, Han Sui obviously does not seem to like a person who likes to live under people for a long time, and Ma Teng's side is strong, and there is no reason to be subordinate to Han Sui.

Lu Bu thought about the key to it, but didn't find that with the conversation between the two, Lu Lingqi's face became unpleasant, and he couldn't help but sarcastically say at the moment: "Old poor and sour, where did your bad stomach come from?" ”

"Shut up." Lu Bu glared at Lu Lingqi: "I will call Mr. in the future." ”

"Father!" Lu Lingqi looked at Lu Bu dissatisfied, it was no problem to call it before, why is this guy suddenly maintained now?

"Huh?" Lu Bu glared back.

Jia Xu smiled bitterly and lowered his head, not to participate in Lu Bu's family affairs, but there was some slander in his heart: It's really reality.
