At this moment, there was a knock on the door, Lu Bu gathered his mind and called "come in", someone pushed the door and entered, but it was Jia Xu.

Jia Xu is tall and thin, but he becomes short in front of Lu Bu, he came in with a smile and bowed his hand, was invited by Lu Bu to sit down in front of him, and said as soon as he opened his mouth: "I have brought good news to the lord......"

Lu Bu's eyes suddenly flashed brightly, but in front of Jia Xu, he still pretended to be calm and asked quietly, "Oh, what good news?" ”

Jia Xu actually knew that Lu Bu's heart would not be so calm on the surface at this time, but he would not break it, but said with a smile: "The reason why we want to defend this Pingzhou City is because of this news?" ”

Lu Bu was stunned for a moment and said, "Ziang has news from there?" ”

Jia Xu nodded and agreed: "The urgent report that I just received, Ziang and his army have arrived at Jinyang City, and they have not clashed with the defenders in the city, but there have been two nearby cities that have sent five hundred reinforcements each, but they have all been wiped out, I believe that at this time, Jinyang City was besieged by the lord's army, and the critical battle report should have reached Zhang Yang's hands at this time." ”

Lu Bu finally smiled, and when the news came, he could breathe a sigh of relief, and after thinking about it, he asked again: "Wen He thinks, will this Zhang Yang return to the division to rescue?" ”

Jia Xu pondered for a moment and said: "This possibility is not ruled out, after all, Jinyang is the seat of Taiyuan County, and it was originally a state and state, its status is self-evident, if Jinyang is lost, it will be a huge blow to the morale of Zhang Yang's army, originally in Pingzhou they did not achieve results, if the news of the crisis in the rear comes at this time, I am afraid that the army will be disheartened, in this case, Zhang Yang has no choice but to withdraw and return to help. But ......" He paused at this point, and suddenly took a turn: "I think that with this flamboyant temperament, since he is willing to make such a big gamble, he will not retreat lightly." Even now facing a backyard fire. He may still continue to stalemate, and would rather choose to send reinforcements all the way back first, and it is more likely to be cavalry, after all, the walls of Jinyang City are strong, and most of the cavalry we sent are not good at attacking the city, and it is difficult to pose an urgent threat to Jinyang City. I'm afraid I'm worried that they will form a flank with our side, so the best choice is to be able to cut off the hidden danger of this threat. But according to what he thought, as long as he broke the Pingzhou City here and captured the lord, that one of his worries would no longer exist. ”

Lu Bu nodded. What Jia Xu said is that he has worked with Zhang Yang for many years, and he knows this person's character very well, although the current Pingzhou battle situation is in a stalemate and it is difficult to break it for a while, but as Jia Xu analyzed, Zhang Yang's character is really strong and it is really difficult to make such a choice.

Zhang Yang has been sending people to pay attention to the movements of Lu Bu's army, which Lu Bu himself naturally knows very well, but he is not worried, because Zhang Yang never thought that his subordinates are now not only the 30,000 troops brought out by the Bingzhou camp in the northern suburbs of Luoyang. Rather, it was supplemented by the 20,000 men of the Black Mountain thieves.

Zhang Yang has no connection with Zhang Yan. And this kind of thing is presumably Zhang Yan will not go around to publicize it even if he has learned the news now, and Zhang Yang is definitely not clear. This kind of information asymmetry is Lu Bu's decisive means.

On the one hand, he only brought nearly a thousand original Black Mountain thieves who were brushed down, and the new recruits of the current Bingzhou Army entered the Pingzhou City, plus the original 1,500 garrisons in the city totaled 2,500 people, and then began to arrange city defense matters, preparing to confront Zhang Yang here, but secretly sent Zhang Liao to lead nearly 10,000 Bingzhou troops with more than 10,000 Montenegrin thieves to the northwest.

It was the movements of Zhang Liaoling's soldiers and horses that confused Zhang Yang, coupled with the news that the Southern Xiongnu were going to prepare for a southern invasion from the north, combined with the fact that Lu Bu collected people from nearby villages in Pingzhou to live in the already empty Bingzhou military camp, Zhang Yang decided in his heart that Lu Bu's army had gone to the north to guard against the Xiongnu, and the defense of Pingzhou City was empty, and Lu Bu did not have enough troops around him, and he could not stop his wanton attack with Pingzhou City.

In fact, it was almost the same, but first the courage of the defenders of Pingzhou, and then the wit of Lu Bu to use the weather to freeze and cover the outside of the city wall with a layer of "protective film", dragged Zhang Yang's 20,000 troops here.

And just when Zhang Yang didn't know or didn't notice, the army that went north all the way to Zhang Liao had suddenly divided his troops in the middle of the way, some of which were all the original Black Mountain thieves, led by Zhang Liao to continue northward, in fact, it was only more than 10,000 people, but they were disguised as 30,000 troops, whether it was to make a meal, it was arranged according to the standard of 30,000 people, and this illusion was naturally made for Zhang Yang, who always paid attention to this side; At the same time, the other part of the 10,000 state army is Wang Cheng, who wants to wear a "crime" meritorious service (also because the VIP chapter is not easy to modify, so explain it directly here, the one in front is Wang De, it is a dragon set, presumably someone will have the impression that this Wang Cheng is good at lightning surprise attacks, so put him here) continued to lead, first turned east into Taiyuan County, and then went northeast along the Pingtao and Daling lines to take Jinyang.

This is Lu Bu's first strange soldier, it is a plan to encircle the point to send reinforcements, and the siege of Jinyang City, which is impossible for Zhang Yang, is constantly attracting reinforcements from all over Taiyuan County, even including Zhang Yang's army, so this can also be seen as a plan to encircle Wei and save Zhao, and by the way, relieve the siege of Pingzhou on his side.

But in addition, on the other side, Gao Shun led the remaining more than 20,000 Bingzhou troops, with more than 5,000 people who had been screened out, had no cultivation value or were too unruly to dissolve into the Bingzhou army, but might become a time bomb, and some thorny Black Mountain thieves, cannon fodder "mixed corps", a total of 26,700 people, detoured from the south to Shangdang County in the rear of Zhang Yang.

This is another strange soldier of Lu Bu, their purpose is not the same as Wang Cheng, Wang Cheng is clearly attacking Jinyang City is actually fighting reinforcements, only attacking people and not attacking the city, and they not only want to break through the rear of Zhang Yang, but also to occupy Shangdang, and then form a flank with Lu Bu to encircle the situation, if Zhang Yang is killed, he can take advantage of the chaos in Taiyuan Wang Cheng continues to drive straight into the overall occupation, otherwise it will be a plan to encroach step by step, here there is the army of Xihe County to press the border, there is chaos in the rear of Shangdang County, and the left and right attacks do not worry about this Taiyuan does not collapse.

However, the first priority of this plan lies in a fast word, whether it is Wang Cheng's road or Gao Shun's way, it must be fast, Lu Bu only has such a few people left in Pingzhou, in addition to not being able to put too many people in Pingzhou City because it is defending the city, and more importantly, because if you want to take the opportunity to take these two counties in one fell swoop, you need enough people.

At present, Lu Bu of the four counties in the west is not worried, the five original Chen Palace, Shangjun and Shuofang County are already in a complicated situation, and they need to stabilize their positions and take their time without rushing to take care of it first, and Xihe County has his own town, although the Southern Xiongnu in the north is a time bomb, but at least it will not explode yet, and with Zhang Liao watching, he can also rest assured.

After talking about so many people, some people must be wondering, where did Lu Bu's current chief guard Dian Wei go at this time? (To be continued.) )
