Lü Bu annexed southern Hebei, Cao Cao left 50,000 troops in southern Hebei after this battle, almost the entire army was wiped out, and when the news of Zang Ba's death came, Lü Bu was still a little stunned. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

The memory of this body and Lu Bu's original memory have been completely fused now, Lu Bu naturally knows how powerful Zang Ba is, Zang Ba was nominally Lu Bu's general, but in fact, he was evil and did not listen to Xuan, Lu Bu cleaned up Yuan Shu at the beginning, and was originally ready to fight Zang Ba with one go, but in the end he was slapped in the face by Zang Ba, and he retreated to Xiapi with a disgraced face.

Zang Ba's ability is definitely not bad, but now he died in the hands of a few small soldiers, and now it sounds embarrassing, as for the forbidden surrender, it can be regarded as an unexpected joy.

"After all, it is General Cao, let him turn around and fight Cao Cao, it is inevitably a little unkind, transfer him back first, stay in Luoyang for a period of time, and then transfer him to Shuzhong after the spring of the next year." In the conference hall, Lu Bu is playing chess with Jia Xu at the moment, well, it's chess, after changing the cannon to a crossbow, the rules are no different from the original chess, as for Go, although it will, but it is not the right way with himself, Lu Bu is more willing to ponder chess.

"Now the generals on the frontal battlefield of our army are enough." When Jia Xu heard this, he smiled and nodded, the five departments of Chang'an, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, plus Xu Sheng and Hao Zhao who garrisoned Tiger Prison Pass and Wuguan, as for the grassroots generals, the military students have now begun to emerge, plus the generals trained by themselves in the army, Lu Bu is really not too short of generals now.

"But Jizhou has dragged on for so long, I'm afraid Cao Cao will see the clues." Jia Xu fumbled for a horse, refused to start, frowned and said: "I will definitely discuss the alliance with Jiangdong and Liu Bei, and the lord should increase contact with Jiangdong as soon as possible. ”

"Even if the remaining four major princes are in alliance, the river has been controlled by our army, Luoyang and Chang'an are related, and our army also has strong bows and crossbows, even if the princes are coming, how can they withstand me?" Lu Bu nodded, the alliance still has to be connected, if he can pull Jiangdong into his own front, it will naturally be the best, but even if it doesn't work, Lu Bu doesn't care too much, after all, Jiangdong and Lu Bu are still separated from the entire Jingzhou, even if Sun Quan agreed to Cao Cao's alliance, would he dare to pull the troops out? What if Liu Bei cuts off their back road? Lu Bu estimated that even if Sun Quan agreed to the alliance, at most he would wave his flag and shout, and he would support some grain and grass.

"If this battle is won, will our army move south and annex the Central Plains?" Lu Bu looked at Jia Xu, Cao Liu Alliance, it is basically a certainty, whether it is Cao Cao or Liu Bei, after learning that Lu Bu occupies Hanzhong, I am afraid that he will not be able to continue to play calmly at home, Lu Bu is confident to win this battle, but what should he do after winning?

Lu Bu is naturally more inclined to directly destroy Cao Cao, the plain area is suitable for Lu Bu to use troops, and compared with Liu Bei, Liu Zhang and Sun Quan and others, Lu Bu attaches more importance to Cao Cao, and the population of the Central Plains is also an important factor for Lu Bu to covet Cao Cao, as long as Cao Cao is swallowed, Lu Bu is the real overlord of the world.

"If the minister is Liu Bei, he must hope that the lord will do so." Jia Xu finally landed his horse on the chessboard, general.

"Why?" Lu Bu got out of the car, killed Jia Xu's old horse, and frowned.

"Even if our army has an absolute advantage over Cao Cao, if you want to digest the Central Plains, it will take five years." The Central Plains is a family in the world, even if Lu Bu occupies the Central Plains, it is also a hard-hit area, and it is easy to destroy Cao Cao, but to implement Lu Bu's policy in Guanzhong step by step, it cannot be suppressed by iron and blood means alone, so it is difficult to digest Cao Cao's territory, and these five years are enough for Liu Bei to annex Shuzhong, you know, the current Liu Bei is much stronger than in history, the entire Jingzhou, now except for the city of Xiangyang, has been all owned by Liu Bei, if at this time Lu Bu consumes a lot of time in digesting the Central Plains, By the time Lu Bu frees up his hands again, I am afraid that Liu Bei has also completed the integration of Jingzhou and Shuzhong.

"Draw?" Lu Bu suddenly frowned, watching Jia Xu take his car away on the chessboard, and suddenly remembered, if this is the case, what is the difference between it and the three points of the world in history? He pondered: "But the Shuzhong family also rejects our army, and even the people are extremely xenophobic. ”

"Not bad." Jia Xu nodded in agreement: "But if the lord goes to Shuzhong, it is equivalent to cutting off Liu Bei's room for development, whether it is Jiangdong or Cao Cao, Liu Bei cannot win it in a short time, and if the three parties fight, it is still the lord who benefits, if he sends troops to the Central Plains, even if he takes the Central Plains, the lord still has to face Jiangdong and Liu Bei's attack, and now our army has various passes that are enough to stop the Cao Liu coalition army, but if you enter the Central Plains, it is equivalent to giving up the passes, and the alliance between our army and Sun Quan is also broken at the same time, taking the Central Plains, for our army, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages, If you take Shuzhong, the world is in sight! ”

Staring at the chessboard for a long time, Lu Bu shook his head and smiled: "Ha, Wenhe, you are more treacherous than before!" ”

Originally, Jia Xu could win, but Jia Xu unknowingly led Lu Bu to the set, and finally played a draw, Lu Bu squinted at Jia Xu and said: "It seems that before, Wen He also intended to let me." ”

"Don't dare, the main chess strength is indeed exquisite, how can you be an opponent." Jia Xu smiled and shook his head.

If you have to use chess to simulate the general trend of the world, I'm afraid that you will still be kept in the dark by this old fox, Lu Bu sighed, obviously his spirit has reached five stars, why can't he still calculate this old guy?

"I have peace and no worries." Standing up, Lu Bu asked Rui'er, who was accompanying the attendant, to clean up the chessboard, and he stretched his waist, turned his head to look at Jia Xu and said: "I've been busy with official business these days, but I haven't gone to see how this Luoyang is recovering, I happen to be free today, how about Wenhe accompany my father and son?" ”

Jia Xu turned his head to look, but it was already noon, and Lu Zheng had already returned from completing his studies, so he smiled and nodded: "In this way, it will bother the lord." ”

Lu Bu's lunch is usually solved outside with his son, and Jia Xu naturally knows this habit.

The three of them cleaned up and walked out the door.

Compared with Chang'an, which has become a well-known city in the entire Eurasian continent, Luoyang is now much more depressed, and almost all the buildings are being built on the streets, but there are a lot of people, and there are Hu people in the Western Regions everywhere, and with the growing prosperity of Lu Bu, the sense of smell of these merchants in the Western Regions is not ordinary sensitivity.

"Nowadays, many things in Luoyang City are being newly built, although the bazaar has been formed, but because the current population of Luoyang and the income of the people have not increased, although the bazaar has been built, but the business is quite deserted." Jia Xu saw that Lu Bu and Lu Zheng were frowning slightly, and explained with a smile.

In the past, although it was the capital, the most prosperous place in the world, but after several wars over the years, Dong Zhuo also set a fire back then, and in recent years, it has been under the rule of Lu Bu, although it has improved, and many people have come in, but it is only better, not to say that compared with today's Chang'an, even compared with Luoyang in the past, it is more than a little worse.

nodded, indeed, compared to when they first came to Luoyang, the current Luoyang is at least twice as strong as in the past.

"Father, was this Chang'an City really the capital in the past?" Lu Zheng asked with some curiosity.

"Yes, my father and your mother met here back then." Lu Bu nodded, for Lu Bu, it was not a pleasant memory, Lu Bu at that time was really played, but the predecessor at that time was enjoying it, but now in Lu Bu's opinion, it seems a little naïve.

"Not every city is like Chang'an City, when you grow up, go out and walk more." Lu Bu touched Lu Zheng's head, smiled and said, "To read ten thousand books, you have to travel thousands of miles." ”

Lu Zheng nodded ignorantly, he was born in Chang'an, since he can remember, he has been accustomed to the prosperity of Chang'an, thinking that the cities in the world should be like Chang'an, but after coming to Luoyang, he can't help but be a little disappointed, compared to Chang'an, Luoyang is really a little ashamed of the name of the capital.

"Father, what are those people doing?" The three of them came all the way to the periphery of Chang'an, the former city wall has been torn down, and now Chang'an City has no city wall, Lu Zheng saw a large number of people gathered in the distance, including many public people, and couldn't help but be curious.

"Temple?" Lu Bu raised his eyebrows: "Go over and take a look." ”

Buddhism has actually been introduced to Middle-earth during the Three Kingdoms period, but it has not flourished, after all, once a monk, it is forbidden to marry, which is unacceptable to people in this era, but when Lu Bu was in Xuzhou, he has seen a lot of temples, I heard that Buddhism in Jiangdong is more prosperous, these years Lu Bu supports a hundred schools of thought, and the doctrines of various schools are blooming in Chang'an and even under the rule of Lu Bu, plus Lu Bu opened the Silk Road, and also introduced a large number of foreign schools to stimulate various theories, Buddhism naturally also comes in with this stream, but you can't get married, and you have to shave your head, the Book of Filial Piety says that there are three unfilial pieties, no queen is great, and there are parents who have a body and skin suffering, Buddhism is considered to have committed these two things, and the people are naturally not too interested in this thing, and Lu Bu pays attention to people's livelihood, and the people's living standards are generally good, so Buddhism has no living space here, but in the Central Plains, I heard that there are many families who believe in this.

The three of them walked all the way, but they saw a group of monks holding sticks outside the temple, blocking a group of yacha from the temple, and a team leader stood outside the temple, fighting with several monks.

"What's going on?" Seeing that a lot of people had gathered around, Lu Bu lined up the crowd and frowned at the head of the Yacha team.

"See the lord!" The head of the team was very angry by a group of monks, and when he saw someone asking, he wanted to scold him angrily, but when he saw Lu Bu, he couldn't help but be startled, and a group of people quickly knelt down.

"Get up." Lu Bu looked at the group of monks and frowned, "What happened?" (To be continued.) )
