War can be a bit of a gnashing of teeth or a little bit of excitement, but it does promote the development of scientific research. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

If two countries, especially two bordering countries, want not to be bullied by others, then they must first arm themselves. Just like a neighbor in the north in later generations, he actually planted mushrooms under great pressure.

Not to mention the economically developed Han Republic, even if it is located in a remote corner, there is barely a Shu Han who is still prosperous in Jingbei has also joined the ranks of research, and even Jiaozhou, which is poor and remote and has not much population, has also invested a lot of manpower and material resources in scientific research. No one is going to sit still, so they can only study desperately.

There are only two outliers in the world, one is the Lujiang Autonomous Region and the other is the Jiujiang Military Government. The former actually belongs to the Republic of China, and in the previous war, everyone got along quite well. After seeing the strength of the republic's army, the faction dominated by Li Ru hoped to further accept the protection of the republic, and only Li Dao and Guo Yan were the only two people, worried that they would lose power.

The Jiujiang junta, strictly speaking, is an independent. The independent regime has only been forced to form an alliance with the Chinese Republic. There is little other way out for them, after all, they are now class enemies as well.

Therefore, Lu Bu simply stopped caring about those families, except for those in the concentration camps in the entire Jiujiang County, the other tyrants of the families, as long as they did not plan to leave the house, were basically directly washed by him. In terms of ruthlessness, it is no less than Dong Zhuo in the past.

The rapid expansion also had side effects, one was that the production of weapons and equipment could not keep up, and the other was that there was a serious shortage of officials to govern the localities. The Liberal Party expanded rapidly, without restraint or restraint, like a party, only for the sake of expanding its influence, without ever considering whether it would be mixed in with speculators.

Fortunately, at least Lu Bu did not allow the children of the family to join the Liberal Party, which was his last sanity.

"So, the Republic intends to do business with me?" When Lü Bu was planning to develop industry, Chen Si found him and told him that the Republic could meet his requirements in terms of weapons, especially siege equipment.

"Yes, Chairman!" Chen Si nodded affirmatively, "Actually, this is a very good business, the weapons we produce are very strong and sharp, you should know this." The point is that their prices are also very cheap, if the general comes to build them, whether they can be built at this level or not, the cost will definitely be more than three times.

The Führer once said, 'It's better to buy than to build, and it's better to rent than to buy', the military junta's expansion is too fast, general, you don't have more time to study, to be honest, the military government's finances are actually a bit tight now, not considering the seized part. Not to mention, no one knows how long it will take to achieve results. The Huaxia Republic can afford to wait, but you definitely can't afford to wait, General! ”

The Republic of China is located in a remote corner, and it is really impossible to blockade the Yangtze River, relying on the terrain and not afraid of other people's invasion. But Lü Bu is north of the Yangtze River, bordering Yuzhou and Xuzhou, and there is even a Lujiang Autonomous Region next door that belongs to the Huaxia Republic.

With Lu Bu's situation, Li Yu is sure of him anyway, regardless of whether there is a marriage between the two of them or something, and it is not a marriage with him, why give Lu Bu face? !

However, Lu Bu can't refute anything, the secret of the violent revolution is to rapidly expand the territory, except for a few large rear areas for management, the other talent cities are almost like abandoned children, not to say that they don't care, but they will not focus there.

At present, Lu Bu has invested all the seized property in the construction of Hefei, whether it is education or scientific research. But it cannot be denied that scientific research takes time, especially if there is no talent in this field at all.

Just Jiujiang County, it will take at least a year for the overall economy to recover, but it is unknown whether the enemy he will face will give him this opportunity. He now urgently needs to reduce the defense in at least one direction in order to save defense costs.

Of course, it is better to expand the territory and further meet the needs of more cities by confiscating the belongings of the wealthy families. Even recruit more soldiers and replenish more equipment.

He planned to use troops against Xuzhou, at least to the south of Xiapi County and Guangling County. In this way, he can arrange a small number of soldiers to defend the south and west, and in the end, it is the territory of the allies, and everyone can discuss it. The east side is already the ocean, so there is no need for garrisons, at most some patrol posts will be arranged.

In this way, the focus is only on the north, and it is completely enough to arrange three to fifty thousand troops to garrison, in fact, in his opinion, the current Han Republic is afraid that there are not so many troops that can fight.

He needed weapons, especially siege weapons, and at least three catapults for each siege. He even misses the heavy catapults of the Han Republic a little, and it is troublesome to assemble and transport, but after assembling, a projection is basically a city gate or a city wall, and there is nothing that can withstand it.

The crossbow bolt that can fire in bursts is not bad, as long as it is not against Li Yu's strong crossbow, then push forward and shoot coveringly, even if the opponent has 10,000 people, they will have to be shot obediently. Not to mention that as long as the casualties reach three or four percent, they will collapse without a fight.

Weapons and armor, even horses, he also plans to ask for them, and I have to say that whether it is horses or armor weapons produced in the Republic, the quality is indeed excellent, and the price is indeed fair. He once asked a master craftsman, not to mention that it can't be produced, even if it is produced, he is afraid that he can produce at most one every three days, not to mention, and the quality is only afraid that it will be worse. Not to mention the cost, such a treasure-level weapon, the manpower to manufacture it is basically sky-high.

At this stage, Lu Bu really has no choice. Fortunately, he is not Chang Kaishen, and he knows the disadvantages of not being able to make his own weapons. The key is that the Chinese Republic is not the United States, the two sides are bordering, who would be idiotic enough to really believe in the nonsense of 'it is better to buy than to build, and it is better to rent than to buy'?

What he needs now is to take advantage of the fact that the Great Han Republic has been greatly damaged because of this conquest and has not yet been able to recover, to quickly expand his sphere of influence, which is also to weaken the war potential of the other party. As for the process, he can't care so much, even if it is to drink to quench his thirst, in fact, he really has no room for this choice.

As a result, a contract for the purchase of weapons appeared, and Li Yu sold more inferior weapons, even weapons of war such as the Zhuge Repeater and the Thunderbolt, which had already been eliminated. The wealth he earned, he quickly invested in economic construction, the key is the gold and silver inside, all saved, as the principal for making gold and silver coins.

Lu Bu also got the weapon, and he couldn't say anything about the quality, after all, this was already a very good weapon.

After leaving Zhang Liao to guard Jiujiang County, he brazenly led his troops and entered Xiapi County. Tao Qian was shocked when he heard this, and immediately sent the newly recruited general Zhen Rong as a general to resist Lu Bu's army, and at the same time transferred Cao Bao back from Guangling. Tao Qian originally had no generals under his command, and only Zhen Rong and Cao Bao were the ones who got the number, and later Mi Fang was counted as one.

It's just that now the Mi family has come to the Chinese Republic, Mi Zhu has even come out, Mi Fang just came of age last year, joined the army, and is currently serving as a military marquis under Liu Xing.

As for the so-called Zhang Min, he had been defeated by Cao Cao in the early years, and he was a military general who could be taken under Tao Qian, and there was really nothing else. It's not nothing, but it's all some goods that can't be put on the table, and Lu Bu has to throw it!

Lu Bu did not intend to defeat Xiapi County and Guangling County, among his intended goals, Xiapi County only planned to capture Huailing, Dongcheng, Gaoshan and Xuyi counties; Guangling County will not attack Ling County, Sheyang County and Xihai County.

What he needs is a stable big rear, not stretching the line and causing trouble for himself.

Starting from Zhongli, it was less than 100 miles east to Huailing County, and the Ma army arrived in one day. Lu Bu took the lead, but he found traces of the enemy army ten miles outside Huailing County. But it was Zhenrong with an army of 20,000 who was already hurriedly deployed here.

Lu Bu picked up the monoculars, which was an additional gadget given by Li Yu after this big purchase. However, this thing is very useful, at least it allows him to clearly see the specific situation of the enemy two miles away.

Just look at the hurriedly arranged formation, the formation has not been fully arranged, and then look at the soldiers, although they look lean, but at this moment, there are many soldiers who are in a hurry, and they are being shouted by senior officers. The armor on his body is mainly leather armor, and most of his weapons and equipment are spears, and some archers are seen in the rear, but they are only holding a standard one-stone bow.

Lu originally thought that he was vulnerable in front of the Huaxia Republic, but he didn't expect that the Xuzhou army was far inferior to Lu! If you don't bully them now, when? Hmph, if Xuzhou is all such troops, why not swallow them all?! Lu Bu looked at the army in front of him with disdain and ordered to charge.

"General, the army of the headquarters has not yet arrived, we are charging at this moment, is it ......" Cheng Lian next to him asked.

"Wait for them to come, it's too late! The fighter plane is fleeting, how can you miss it? Lu Bu disagreed, and continued to give the order to charge.

The soldier quickly changed his horses, and his troops were originally one man and two horses, one horse was used for transportation, and one horse was used to charge into battle. After the horses were replaced, the horses came all the way with little load, so they had plenty of energy. Even if the endurance is not very strong, the explosiveness is very amazing.

"Sons, charge with me!" Lu Bu shouted, and actually rushed out first. The fire cloud below the seat did indeed transform into a red flowing cloud in a very short period of time, flowing directly towards the front.

"Kill!" Since ancient times, fierce generals have been under the command of fierce soldiers, Lu Bunai is the number one fierce general of the border army, and many of his subordinates have followed him from Bingzhou. They have long been accustomed to following the general to rush towards the enemy army, as long as Lu Bu is there, they have nothing to fear!

The army quickly converged into a torrent and rushed directly towards the enemy position.

Zhen Rong was shocked when he saw this, his formation had not been fully arranged, and the main force of the other party did not seem to have arrived, it seemed that there were only 3,000 cavalry, and he actually dared to rush towards the position of his 20,000 army?

"Formation, formation, spearmen immediately formation!" Zhenrong shouted, and the officers below immediately ordered to go down.

Where is it so simple to convey orders, in the era when orders were delivered by roaring, this was not before the pikemen stepped forward to form a formation, Lu Bu's army suddenly killed, and he himself waved his halberd directly at the pikemen in front, I don't know how many were killed.

For a while, there was a vacancy in the battle formation of Zhenrong, and Lu Bu took the lead and rushed directly towards the core.

The wolf riders behind him also quickly rushed over and covered up. Wherever they passed, no one could stand in their way. Facts have proved that Lu Bujun is still very combative, but it also depends on who he is dealing with.

"Lu Bu, I'm not afraid of you!" Zhen Rong shouted and killed Lu Bu directly. But I didn't want the two sides to just get in touch, and Zhenrong felt that his body was light, but the whole person was unconscious.

"Who was talking just now?" After Lu Bu cut Zhen Rong in half, he muttered a little. (To be continued.) )
