Chapter Twenty-Six: The All-Round General

In front of the huge open space, tens of thousands of mountain people gathered here to help the old and the young, looking at the five hundred former robes, these bandits who used to eat together in the past, seemed to have changed their appearance, one by one, their waists were straight, and they were well-dressed in armor and weapons, and it was difficult to associate them with the bandits who ate with them in the past.

Lu Bu sat comfortably on the back of the red rabbit horse, looking at the sky in the distance, the sky was high and the clouds were light, and the sun was shining, which was a good weather for travel.

A probe horse galloped forward with billowing smoke and dust.

"Lord, Liu Bei's people have already come, just twenty miles down the mountain, and the person leading the team is Zhang Fei."

"Zhang Fei?" Lu Bu nodded, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, reined in the horse's reins, turned the horse's head, and faced a group of mountain people with confused and panicked expressions.

"Folks." Lu Bu was angry, exhaled, and made his voice as low as possible: "I, Lu Bu, am a down-and-out person, without a foundation, I am a Han general, I can't run to rob the people like a bandit, and I can't afford to feed everyone." ”

Looking at the hesitant gaze of a group of mountain people, Lu Bu said in a deep voice: "But you can rest assured, since you have arrived here, I will find a way to live for everyone, Uncle Emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Bei, Liu Xuande, is now sitting in Runan, under his command, there are several cities, you can place everyone, you can plant land for everyone, you can support yourself, I have made an appointment with him, he is also very willing to accept everyone, now, the troops he sent to pick up people have arrived, please follow me out of the mountain." ”

A group of mountain people looked at Lu Bu blankly, they didn't know where their future would be, so they could only go with the flow numbly.

Lu Bu didn't care about the thoughts of these mountain people, with an order, five hundred soldiers began to urge the mountain people to advance, thirty miles away, it took nearly a day to finish, and when he saw Zhang Fei's team, it was already dusk.

"Yide, I didn't expect to meet again so soon." As if he had forgotten the life-and-death battle not long ago, the moment he saw Zhang Fei, Lu Bu had a smile on his face and said kindly.

"Hmph, you're too slow!" Zhang Fei snorted coldly, if it weren't for Liu Bei's instructions before the trip, he would definitely not rush up to fight with Lu Bu without hesitation, I don't know when it started, anyway, every time he saw Lu Bu, he would have a violent mood in his heart.

Ignoring Zhang Fei's attitude, for Lu Bu today, interests are the most important thing, he will not fight meaningless battles, seeing Zhang Fei's cold attitude, he naturally will not take a hot face to stick to other people's cold butts, and pointed to the mighty mountain people behind him: "People brought it, what do I want?" ”

Zhang Fei snorted coldly, turned his head and said, "Bring it up." ”

"Yes." A small colonel snorted, and in the back, a team of soldiers led a large number of ploughing cattle up, Zhang Fei looked at Lu Bu and said, "What you want, a hundred ploughing cattle are here, Lu Bu, are you going to farm?" In the end, I couldn't help but say sarcastic.

"Perhaps." Lu Bu didn't pay attention to this goods, the prey in the mountains went up to the tiger and down to the hares, and they were all beaten all over by them, to maintain the high-intensity training of the army, nutrition and meat must keep up, otherwise the body will be broken, and the rest is good to say, Lu Bu ransacked the warehouse in Shu County, there is no shortage of grain and grass, baggage, but meat is in short supply, and now it is difficult to catch prey in the mountains, but the training of the army has not yet been completed, so when he sent someone to negotiate with Liu Bei, he specially asked for a hundred ploughing cattle for more than 10,000 people.

Liu Bei is now short of people, he needs the population not only to pay taxes, but more importantly, to spread his name of benevolence and righteousness through these populations, so as to attract more people to come to work, although a hundred ploughing cattle are precious, but in Liu Bei's opinion, it is definitely not comparable to the value of 10,000 people.

After the transaction was completed, Zhang Fei naturally didn't want to entangle with Lu Bu more, the two belonged to the kind of natural incompatibility, and they couldn't fight when they met, so naturally the sooner they left, the better, Lu Bu had these 100 ploughing cattle, and he didn't bother to ink with Zhang Fei anymore, so he took someone to lead a hundred ploughing cattle back to the cottage.

It took a day to go, but it only took an hour to come back, because the walking of the ploughing oxen in the mountains and forests slowed down the journey.

"My lord." Back in the cottage, Zhang Liao had already walked up, holding a bamboo note in his hand: "Letter from Mr. Gongtai." ”

"Oh?" Lu Bu's eyes lit up, and he handed over the red rabbit to the accompanying guards and pulled him to Ma Peng, stretched out his hand to take the bamboo note, and walked towards the lobby with Zhang Liao.

In the empty hall, after Da Qiao meticulously helped Lu Bu and Zhang Liao serve the tea cup, he bowed down and retreated, Lu Bu spread out the bamboo paper, and there was a silk inside with a map on it.

After a glance and ten lines, he took a rough look at the bamboo note, handed the bamboo note to Zhang Liao, Lu Bu's eyes fell on the map, and he asked in a deep voice for a while: "Gongtai wants us to take Luyang as soon as possible, what do you think?" ”

According to Mr. Gongtai's letter, during this time, Zhang Xiu continued to garrison troops in Luyang under the advice of the strategist Jia Xu, on the one hand, there was the intention of guarding against Cao Cao, but there was also the intention of trapping us, because no matter which way we want to enter Nanyang, Luyang is unavoidable." Zhang Liao frowned and said: "Zhang Xiujun has shown hostility towards us, and the last general also thinks that if we want to cross Nanyang, Luyang must be taken, otherwise, we can only be trapped here, just ......"

Lu Bu raised his head, looked at Zhang Liao, and suddenly smiled: "When did Wen Yuan become such a daughter?" But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

"Yes." Zhang Liao nodded and said, "Luyang is a military town in the east of Nanyang, these days, Zhang Xiu has been increasing his troops under Jia Xu's suggestion, but the message from Mr. Gongtai is that in the past few days alone, there have been no less than 2,000 people stationed in Luyang, plus the strength of Luyang itself, conservative estimates, Luyang garrison strength, I'm afraid there are no less than 4,000 people, our army wants to take Luyang, I'm afraid it's ......"

"Lu Yang must be taken!" Lu Bu pondered for a moment and said, "Since the strong attack can't work, then we will win by surprise." ”

"Oh? But the lord has a strategy to break the enemy? Zhang Liao's eyes lit up and looked at Lu Budao.

"I need to wait for a few days, and then I will gather all the people who can strike iron in the cottage, and let Ziming bring the soldiers who are trapped in the camp over, this matter must be done in one go, otherwise, if the other party has precautions, it will be difficult to use it again." Lu Bu had an idea in his heart, but whether he could execute it or not was not good with the map alone.

"In addition, the lonely city of Luyang is difficult to defend, even if we take Luyang, Zhang Xiu reacted, and if the army came to attack, it would be difficult for our army to compete with it." Lu Bu said in a deep voice, although there are now more than 2,600 infantry troops under his command, even if each one is beaten with iron, if Zhang Xiu launches a large army to attack, there will be only one result, and he will be driven back.

"The lord means ......," Zhang Liao looked at Lu Bu.

"Wen Yuan, look here." Lu Bu pointed to the other two cities on the map: "Yiyang and Zhuyang, not only can form an angle with Luyang, at the same time, if you take these two cities, you can show a counter-encirclement situation, clamp Wancheng, make Zhang Xiu's head and tail difficult, I am ready to take Wancheng After I am ready to take Wancheng, you and Ziming will each lead a thousand people to defend these two cities, if Zhang Xiu's army comes to attack, no matter which way you go, you will pass through the defense area of the other two, no need to face the enemy head-on, just continue to attack its grain route, so that it can not attack the city with all its strength." ”

Of course, the premise of all this is that Lu Bu can take Lu Yang and will not lose too many soldiers, otherwise, if Lu Yang loses too many men and horses, he will not be able to divide the troops at all, but at this moment, the two tacitly did not discuss this topic.

Soon, Gao Shun walked in, Zhang Liao told the two of them what they had discussed before, Gao Shun looked at the map, pondered for a moment, and then nodded: "The lord is very good, but there is one point, our army can't lose too many soldiers and horses in Luyang, otherwise if the loss is too much, the next plan will be impossible to talk about." ”

When Zhang Liao heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, Gao Shun has outstanding ability and a clear mind, but many times, speaking and doing things is inevitably too upright, if it was Lu Bu before, just this sentence can make Lu Bu angry, thinking, he couldn't help but glance at Lu Bu quietly, but saw that there was no displeasure on Lu Bu's face, and he was silently relieved in his heart.

"I've already calculated this matter, and it's hard to say whether it will succeed now." Lu Bu nodded, looked up at Gao Shun and said: "In the past few days, I need to borrow you to trap the camp, and the affairs of the army will be trained by me in the Ming Dynasty of Zi in the past few days." ”

"The last general obeys!" Gao Shun bowed.

After discussing some things with the two of them after occupying Luyang, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun surrendered.

"System, I want to strengthen Zhang Liao and Gao Shun." Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Lu Bu connected with the system in his mind.

"The famous general Zhang Liao needs achievement points of 5000, Gao Shun needs achievement points of 2000, and a total of 7000 achievement points are needed."

"Cultivate."

Zhang Liao's strength is three-star, with two stars in physique, agility, and spirit, while Gao Shun is all two-star, I hope that after a training, the two can make a breakthrough, especially Gao Shun, as far as these data are concerned, as a general that Lu Bu relies on, it is a little low.

"Di ~ Successful training, congratulations to the host, discover the all-round general, and reward the host for getting a boost for random attributes."

Listening to the prompts of the system, Lu Bu had some differences, and hurriedly checked the attributes of the two in his mind.

Zhang Liao, the strength is still three stars, and there is no breakthrough in physique and spirit, but it has broken through to three stars with agility, and the strength should be close to the threshold of four stars, maybe if you cultivate it again, you can reach the four-star level, but what surprised Lu Bu was Gao Shun.

The three-star evaluation made Lu Bu's eyes widen, this is completely an enhanced version of Hao Zhao, and at the same time, Lu Bu also understands what it means to be an all-round general, and if all the attributes reach the three-star level or above, he can be called an all-round general.
