"Report! Urgent! Liangzhou Thorn Shi Weikang, Sili Lieutenant Zhong Xuan, Later General Yang Ding, Andi General Ma Teng, Anqiang General Han Sui, Wuwei Taishou Zhang Meng, Dunhuang Taishou Ma Ai, Jincheng Taishou Su Ze and others will ally Yicheng, each department or three or four thousand, or forty or fifty thousand, a total of 230,000 troops. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"It's all here! So much? Lu Bu stood up in shock. Two hundred and thirty thousand troops! What does he use to resist? If he was divided and attacked, Lu Bu still had a trace of confidence, and his confidence was ruthlessly shattered.

"Jincheng is born on the stone tablet, all forces gather here, coinciding with the general entering the customs, Sili Lieutenant Zhong Xuan raised his arms and shouted to rescue Chang'an, and all the heroes responded one after another."

Lu Bu sat back on the throne with a butt, what does it mean to lift a stone and shoot yourself in the foot, this is it!

"Don't these heroes want to be kings?" Lu Bu grabbed the key question and asked. He made the stone tablet to mislead others because he wanted the Xiliang warlords to fight against each other, but he didn't want them to be united.

The messenger explained: "The stele is temporarily in the custody of Zhong Xuan, and it is proposed that whoever defeats the general first will be the king of Xiliang. ”

"Zhong Xuan really dares to do it, isn't he afraid to get another Xiliang King for Cao Cao?" Lu Bu couldn't believe it.

"This is Zhong Xuan's delaying plan, if he can't defeat the lord, Guan Zhong will soon be out of Cao Cao's control. After the united army defeated the lord, the so-called king of Xiliang also had to be approved by Cao Cao, even if he was called the king, Cao Cao could also slowly figure it out as long as he freed his hands. Xu Shu frowned, as the number one strategist, he didn't expect Zhong Xuan to unite the army in advance, it was his dereliction of duty.

Lu Bu hurriedly convened the military generals to discuss countermeasures, leaving only Ji Ling with 5,000 troops to guard the Wuguan, Hao Zhao 3,000 to guard the Tong Pass, and the rest of the generals were all recruited to Xinfeng.

"The enemy army is coming, why should we retreat?" Lu Bu looked at the generals in the hall and asked. The generals in the hall looked at each other, and there was nothing they could do.

Chen Gong thought for a long time, and said slowly: "The enemy army is menacing, the momentum is huge, and it is difficult to defeat. However, there is no doubt that it is with the princes of the Eighteen Roads in the past, and the strength is not aligned, and the lord will win the resistance. The command of the army under the command of the lord is unified, and the Xiliang army is a group of heroes, and the military horses of each department are relatively independent.

From the people's point of view, the current lord is an external force, and intervening in Guanzhong will definitely cause a backlash, and the Xiliang army is the desire of the people, but the Xiliang generals are predatory, and the ravines are difficult to fill. With these two points, our army will be undefeated. ”

"What Gongtai said is reasonable, but the prerequisite is to resist the Xiliang vanguard offensive, if our army can't resist, it will be destroyed and uprooted. I intend to guard the checkpoint first and frustrate the spirit of the Xiliang army, and at that time, the Xiliang army will definitely return to Xiliang. Xu Shu said.

At the same time, it can also divide the generals of Xiliang. This army is coming, in the final analysis, the princes of Xiliang are not satisfied with each other, what they do is just a stone tablet, and the Ming Duke can express his position in support of Ma Teng as king. The uneven differentiation of interests will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among Han Sui and others, and it is unknown that they will attack Ma Teng instead. Liu Ye said.

Several major strategists expressed their attitudes, and there was not much difference between them and Lu Bu's plan, they all focused on defense first, and then broke through each one. Lu Bu looked at Jia Xu and Lu Xun, who had not spoken.

Lu Xun avoided Lu Bu's gaze and didn't dare to look at each other. Seeing Lu Bu's view, Jia Xu was reluctant and said very succinctly: "Look for fighters in defense." ”

"Okay, just follow Wenhe's words, defend and counterattack." Lu Bu nodded in agreement: "Then where is the defense?" ”

At this time, a herald begged to see him outside, interrupting Lu Bu's questioning: "Fu Gan, the Marquis of the Zhuangjie in the north, and Wang Cheng, the general of Chiyang, sent an envoy to see him. ”

"Yes, please." Lu Bu paused to discuss the military deployment, turned around and asked, "Who are these two people?" ”

Zhang Xiu got up and returned: "Fu Ganzi inherited his father's lordship, his father Fu Xie had a strong personality, high style and bright manners, and he heard of it when he embroidered in the north. In the past, the kingdom rebelled, and the soldiers in the city of Ji County ran out of food, and Fu Xie worked hard. At that time, there were thousands of Hun rangers from Beidi County outside the city, and when they heard that he was in the city, they kowtowed outside the city together, asking Fu Xie to go out of the city and surrender, and wished to ensure that Fu Xie returned to Beidi safely. Fu Xie refused the kindness of the Hun cavalry with 'Shengda Festival, the second festival', and finally the city was broken and died, and Emperor Ling issued an edict to posthumously crown Fu Xie as the Marquis of Zhuangjie. ”

"It's actually the queen of loyalty." Lu Bu sighed, the title of Emperor Ling is not the title of the stall that Cao Cao holds Liu Xie hostage now, and it is very difficult to obtain the title of marquis, and it is not possible to buy it with money.

Jia Xu saw that no one knew Wang Cheng, so he got up and said: "Wang Cheng was originally a general of Ma Teng, in the past, Ma Teng was a soldier in Chiyang, Wang Cheng suddenly rebelled and attacked Ma Teng, Ma Teng was defeated, and fled west. Since then, Wang Cheng has stationed troops in Chiyang, and now Ma Teng has come east, Wang Cheng is worried about the past, and he is afraid that Ma Teng will attack him. If my expectations are good, Wang Cheng and Fu Gan are sending envoys to surrender. ”

"Why did Fu Gan come to drop me? Could there be any fraud? "Lu Bu is a little uncomfortable with others taking the initiative to work, with his reputation, this kind of treatment is indeed a bit flattering. The first reaction was that the enemy army came to surrender.

"In private, Han Sui and the kingdom jointly killed his father, and Fu Gan and Han Sui had a grudge against their father. Yu Gong, the general is an auxiliary general entrusted by the Son of Heaven, holding the secret edict of the Son of Heaven. Fu Gan, as a strong marquis, why didn't he come to help and destroy his father's name? Jia Xu's words dispelled Lu Bu's doubts.

"Wait for the messenger Zhao Liang in the Xia Zhuang Festival." Fu Gan's envoy Zhao Liang visited Lu Bu, Zhao Liang was filial piety and honesty, famous far and wide, and was an official in the north.

"Sir is coming away, please take a seat." Lu Bu added a seat to the Chen Palace. Zhao Liang came on behalf of Fu Gan, and Lu Bu expressed great importance to Fu Gan.

"A certain small official, he didn't dare to be the first, and asked the auxiliary general to take it back." Zhao Liang said modestly: "Hou Ye heard that the general was ordered by the Son of Heaven to pacify the world, and my Hou Ye came to serve. ”

"Mr. Fu does not lose the word 'Zhuangjie', he has his father's demeanor, and the country is fortunate." Lu Bu opened his mouth and praised. He didn't even know how many noses Fu Gan had, it was completely polite.

Zhao Liang secretly observed Lu Bu's reaction, and saw that although Lu Bu's face was calm, he couldn't suppress the joy in his eyes, and knew that Lu Bu sincerely accepted Fu Gan: "A certain person was sent by the Hou Ye, came from the north, united forces from all over the country, Fuping, Lianxian, Lingzhou and other counties under the rule of the northland county are willing to send troops to help the auxiliary general, and at the same time persuade General Wang Cheng, who is ready to lead troops into Chang'an, to vote." ”

Zhao Liang pointed to another middle-aged man with a beard next to him and said, "This is the envoy sent by General Wang Cheng." ”

Wang Cheng's envoy bowed down and said, "My general wants to lead the army to join the auxiliary general, and he will send a certain one." ”

"I am very happy to have the help of General Wang, and the two of you have come from afar to take a rest?" Lu Bu said. Zhao Liangliang knew that Lu Bu was going to discuss with his staff, so he retreated with interest.

"Congratulations, my lord. In this way, the deployment of our troops will be handy. "Xu Shu has been depressed and doesn't know how to deploy troops.

"That's right, Weilan, Huayin and other forces close to Tongguan to defend Feng Yi can be invested in other places." Zhang Liao said. He knew very well how many troops Lu Bu had. Defending the front line on the south bank of the Wei River looks like a new day, but in fact, the defense line is too long and the troops are insufficient.

"The lord sent a general to cross the river, and the governor Feng Yi and the army of the north relied on the Jing River to defend the flank. Then the Xiliang army can only cross the river from the west of Xianyang, and it will be very easy to be prepared. Xu Shu continued.

Lu Bu had already noticed in his heart that Wang Cheng and Fu Gan were sincere in their votes, at least they would not defect until Lu Bu's power was extinguished, and they could rest assured that they would entrust all the east of the Jing River to the local warlords.

"The only thing I'm worried about is whether these big families really support it?"

"The Guanzhong clan and the Hu people lived together and intermarried, and were ostracized by the Kanto clan. After the rebellion of Dong Zhuo, Li Xuan, and Guo Yan, Chang'an has completely disappeared if it has become a strong and dependent on a strong man, as long as Wang Cheng and others lead the way, the rest of the forces will come and fall one after another. Jia Xu said. He has been in Guanzhong for decades and knows the local family very well. Moreover, the Hu people in the north are mostly nomadic herders, and there are very few scholars.

"General Zhang Xiu is willing to go to Feng Yi alone, Governor Feng Yi, and the Northland Army?" Lu Bu asked Zhang Xiu. This is a very dangerous thing, if Wang Cheng and others feel that Zhang Xiu is fighting for power, they will die unexplained if they are killed, in case Wang Cheng and others are fraudulently surrendered, Zhang Xiu will be sent to death.

"The last will make his debut in the north, and the Hu people all tremble when they hear my name, and they are willing to go." Zhang Xiudao.

"Pay attention to your own safety, there is no need to deprive the local princes of their military power, your duty is to unite them and urge them to defeat the enemy and make meritorious contributions." Lu Bu explained to Zhang Xiu that he couldn't be in a hurry to clean up these heroes, why did he have to wait until the cunning rabbit died to cook the dogs, and now he wanted to reach out and seize power, which could only backfire.

"What do you think should be the position of Wang Cheng, Fu Gan and others?" Everyone else has come to the door to serve, and Xu has an official position without Lu Bu's money and food, and he can still win people's hearts, so why not do it.

"Go to the official position of Feng Yi and put it as Feng Yijun, and the cousin Wang Cheng is Feng Yi's Taishou, General Fubo. Cousin Fu Gan is the history of Liangzhou thorns. Jia Xu said sinisterly. Ma Tengzu is General Fubo when he goes to the aid of the horse, and he will be the rebel general Wang Cheng as General Fubo, which is the rhythm of Ma Teng to be angry. At the same time, Wang Cheng commanded Feng Yi, so he would naturally annihilate the alien forces in Feng Yi's area that did not belong to him, killing two birds with one stone.

Lu Bu wrote the official document, stamped it with the seal of the auxiliary general and handed it to Fu Gan's envoy, and Zhang Xiu went back with the happy two to resume his life.

At this time, the matter is clear, that is, Chang'an is the center, and Yiwu is the important town to defend Xiliang.

"Is Wu Xi surrendering or fighting, and there is no news yet?" Lu Bu asked. Now only Wu Xi, who temporarily occupies Huxian County, has not yet been attached, and he is stuck in the middle of Jingzhao and must be removed.

Zhang allowed him to enter Chang'an, and Wu Xi heard about Duan Xuan's tragic death and wavered. Now that the time is ripe, as long as the generals and soldiers are in the city, Wu Xi will open the door to vote. Liu Ye said.

Liu Ye reminded that Lu Bu faintly felt that Wang Cheng would come to surrender, and it should also be affected by Duan Xuan's tragic death, but he heard that Wang Cheng was going to lead troops to assist Zhang Ji in Chang'an, and he suddenly defected, it would not be without reason, it seems that Duan Xuan's soul is not useless at all. The only pity is that he wants to use Wang Cheng to defraud Chang'an and can't arrange it, what if Wang Cheng enters Chang'an to serve Zhang Ji?
