Luoyang was weak in attacking the city, and Lu Bu could only wait for He Yi and Liu Pi to lead the bandits to help, but he first received an urgent report from Hanguguan and Huai County.

Hearing the news of Wei and Song Xian's death, Lu Bu was taken aback, and was so angry that the pheasant tail on his head trembled: "Ah?!" Wei Xu rashly attacked, bad for me! ”

Hearing the news that Xu Da led his troops through Taihang and stormed Hanoi, Lu Bu was completely confused and at a loss......

Hao Meng said: "Wenhou, Hangu Pass is the westward gateway of Luoyang, it cannot be discarded, and reinforcements should be sent as soon as possible." And Hanoi is north of the river, whether it is lost or not, it has no effect on our army. Or wait for He Yi and Liu Pi to arrive, and work together to capture Luoyang. ”

Lu Bu looked at Hao Meng suspiciously. "Meng Zhuo (Zhang Miaozi) is my brother with a different surname, and he treats me very kindly, but now he is in trouble, if he doesn't help, won't he be laughed at by the world?"

Lu Bu said generously and righteously, as if he had forgotten that he had betrayed Ding Yuan first and then Dong Zhuo, and the people of the world had long despised it.

Hao Meng was ordered to rush to the aid of Han Guan Gu, and Gao Shun Cao Xingcheng Lian was ordered to stay in Luoyang, preparing to join He Yi and Liu Pi and attack Luoyang.

Lu Bu personally led a department, rushed to Pingyin, and joined Zhang Liao,

"Report! The enemy Xu Dabu has captured Yewang and is attacking Huaixian from the northwest two roads. ”

"Report! The enemy Tan Daoji Department, from the northwest direction out of the Kei Pass, even breaking the original township of Yi County, is coming to the north bank of the river! ”

Zhang Liao said worriedly: "The enemy army has divided into Taihang Jiji Pass on two roads, and another large army has been attacking Hangu Pass for a while, how our army responds, Wen Hou should be more careful." ”

Lu Bu's thick eyebrows tightened, leaned over the map, and asked while swiping his fingers on the map: "Enemy Xu Da and Na Tan or something." What is the situation with military supplies? ”

"Yu Wenhou, the enemy Xu Da is based in the east of the river. The baggage department is being transported from Taihang to Yewang. ”

"That Tan or something, can the backup supply keep up?"

"The enemy is a soldier, and there is no heavy supply."

Lu Bu studied for a moment, and slammed his right fist into his left palm.

"The enemy situation is clear! Attack Hangu Pass to distract our troops. Out of the Keiguan, quickly interspersed. Just to seize the ferry town of Heyang on the north bank of the river. Provide flank cover for Xu Da. Xu Da is the main force of the enemy, and its purpose is to seize Huai County and forcibly occupy Hanoi. ”

Instantly "insightful" of the enemy's intentions, Lu Bu couldn't help but applaud his military genius. With a wave of his hand, he ordered: "Cross the river and support Hanoi!" ”

Zhang Liao's face was worried: "Wenhou, Pingyin's troops are insufficient, and the soldiers and horses in Pingyin are several times larger than mine. And even a few places, morale is high, our army is now rushing north to help, is it too hasty? ”

Lu Budao: "Humanitarianism is far-reaching, brave and fearless. But I think Wen Yuan is too cautious. ”

"Wenhou, the enemy army is large, so you should be careful. The subordinates still felt that it was better for our army to stick to Pingyin and prevent the enemy from crossing south. ”

"Huh!" Lu Bu waved his hand slightly complainingly, "Meng Zhuo treats me like a brother. If I don't save myself when I see death, won't I be laughed at by the people of the world? ”

"Although the situation in Hanoi is tight, the villages of Hanoi are densely packed with cities, and although the state army is powerful, it is difficult to control it all. Huaixian was besieged, but General Zhang Mengzhuo had no shortage of ways to advance and retreat, and there was no danger of surprise. Our army can be invincible only by holding on to Henan, grasping Luoyang, controlling Baguan, and then aiding Hanoi. ”

Lu Bu was dissatisfied: "Brave and far-reaching, how can you speak of a woman?" ”

Lu Bu relied on Zhang Liao, and his attitude towards him was far greater than that towards Hao Meng and others. Pulled Zhang Liao to the map, pointed and explained: "The enemy army is large, but there are big loopholes. Wen Yuan, please see, although Xu Da's offensive momentum is strong, its western side is safe, but it is all thanks to the escort of Tan What, which is where its weakness lies! ”

"Oh?"

"Wen Yuan has been leading the army for a long time, have you forgotten the march? When a large army goes out, each person can only carry six days' rations with him, and the rest is transported by backups. There is no heavy supply for Na Tan or something, and it must be to quickly seize Heyang and get supplies from the wild king. ”

"Oh...... What does Wen Hou mean to cut off the supply route of the Tandao Jibu, wait for it to run out of food, quickly break it, and indirectly relieve the siege of Huai County? ”

"Exactly! A certain has been calculated, Na Tan or something sent troops from Dongyuan, so far it takes five days to march. Our army quickly crossed the river, seized Heyang, and cut off communication between it and Yewang. After a day or two, the enemy will run out of food, the army's heart will be chaotic, Wenyuan will stick to Heyang, and a certain relative will lead a surprise attack, then the enemy can be broken in an instant! In this way, Hanoi is only left with Xu Da alone, and he will not dare to act rashly, and the crisis in Hanoi can be solved! ”

"Okay......" Zhang Liao was finally persuaded by Lu Bu, "However, in order to ensure the safety of our army, my subordinates still suggested that we prepare more boats and boats on the north shore, thinking that it was the way back." ”

"Wen Yuan was too careful and forgot the classics of the last battle?"

"My subordinates just want to be just in case."

"Okay, just Yiwenyuan. After crossing to the north, the surrounding ferries will be concentrated in Ha Duong. ”

The plan has been decided, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao will immediately cross the Yellow River north and quickly enter Heyang.

As soon as he entered Heyang, he received a letter: Tandao Jibu broke through to twenty miles west of Heyang, and the garrison was in the small city of Zhancheng.

"Hahaha, what's the prediction?" Lu Bu was smug about his anticipation of the enemy's opportunity. "Wen Yuan guarded Heyang steadily, and immediately led the department to take a detour. Two days later, the enemy's food was cut off, and the army's morale would be chaotic. ”

……

Tan Dao Ji is a recognized theoretical commander in the state army, how can he not use the method of war.

Undertaking the heavy task of surprise attack, Tan Daoji pondered and meditated.

The difficulty of this battle lies in how to break through the Yellow River and capture Pingyin.

Along the Yellow River, there is a lack of large river crossing boats. and state soldiers, and they are not good at boats. If you cross the river and attack as usual, it will be difficult to give full play to your own strength. Moreover, if the enemy attacked in the middle of the river crossing, the army would suffer heavy losses.

For this reason, Tan Daoji decided to advance lightly and lure Lu Bu to cross the river to attack.

Send someone to inform Wang Meng that when the enemy crosses north and Pingyin City is empty, Shi Jin Jiang Ping will rush forward from the waterway and cooperate to seize Pingyin.

In order to lure the enemy to take the bait, Tan Daoji deliberately did not bring a baggage team, and ordered his sergeants to be lightly armed and simple, and each person carried two more days' food. At the same time, each meal should be cut by 20% of the food, which must be supported for 10 days.

Gao Gao went out with Tan Daoji, quite puzzled: "If you save food, you can only hold on for ten days, so what about ten days later?" ”

Tan Daoji smiled slightly: "Ten days later, the enemy has been broken. ”

……

Tan Daoji cut off his own military rations, which really attracted Lu Bu's attention.

The scout returned, Zhang Liao was sticking to Heyang, Lu Bu was detouring, Tan Daoji was overjoyed, and ordered: "Command all the parts, take out all the surplus grain, make a fire to cook, and have a full meal!" ”

After going out for a few days, they can finally let go of eating, since the general has an order, the soldiers only care about this meal, and they don't care about what to eat next. ”

The soldiers gobbled up, and Tan Daoji patrolled the camp. "One more order, if anyone leaves a grain of rice, the rod will be twenty!"

"No!"

Tan Dao Ji Department, military orders are strict. How dare the soldiers be careless, they carefully inspected while eating, for fear of dropping a grain of rice on the ground, so they had to lie on the ground and sniff and look for it.

"General, the meal is over."

Tan Daoji nodded with satisfaction. "Lu Bu's team, how far is it?"

"General Yu, Lu Bu's army will arrive at our position within ten miles to the north, within an hour."

"Good!" Tan Daoji recruited Yang Zaixing and commanded.

The second general took the order and left.

"Someone!"

"No!"

"How far are the enemy troops?"

"Five miles to the north, it's speeding up!"

Tan Daoji nodded, and gave an unbelievable order: "Order...... All parts, bury the pot and make rice! (To be continued.) )>
