"I left Pengcheng today, and I don't know how long it will take to see each other. How about the two of us marrying Qin and Jin? ”

Seeing that they were going to separate, this made Lu Bu, who was outcast, suddenly think crookedly. When he was in Changting Town, Lu Bu wanted to marry Tao Ying as the Jinlan brothers, but Tao Ying refused.

Tao Yingfei didn't want to be a brother with such a peerless general, but he was afraid that if he didn't die, he would harm himself sooner or later. So at the moment, it is very important to draw a line with him.

August is coming, the red sun hangs on the branches, and the ten-mile Changting town of breakfast is shrouded in a golden sunshine.

Brothers can't do it, but if they form an alliance to defend the land together, this Tao Ying will naturally not refuse! So Tao Ying asked people to bring pen and ink, and he signed a contract with Lu Bu, a hero in the late Han Dynasty, under a locust tree in Changting Town.

After signing the contract, Tao Ying looked at this piece of paper for some reason and thought of Cao Cao again. The ancients valued credibility the most, but this Cao Cao played himself twice, which really made him lose face.

Lu Bu looked at the signed covenant with some joy, the covenant said that Xiao Pei and Peng Chengguo had concluded an alliance and would not invade each other.

This finally stabilized Lu Bu's footsteps when he first came, and when he thought of Cao Cao, Tao Ying suddenly decided to take a big risk! As the saying goes, if people don't offend me, I won't offend people, if Lu Bu is idle and has nothing to do, he will definitely beat himself when he is tired, and now that he happens to have food and grass, it is better to let his generals follow him to train the army!

Thinking of this, Tao Ying suddenly looked at Lu Bu and said: "You should want to ask Wen Hou for one thing, this matter is held in my heart, and I don't think about tea and dinner every day." ”

Lu Bu saw that Tao Ying actually had a request for himself, so he nodded and patted his chest and said, "The matter of the second son is my business." What's the matter, just say, I will definitely help the second son solve it! ”

It seems that this is also a means of winning people's hearts.

Lu Bu swore what he said, Tao Ying frowned, not knowing whether it was right to do this. But the arrow is on the bow and has to be sent. So Tao Ying hurriedly replied: "Cao promised to give Shanyang County to Pengcheng, but I sent a messenger to ask for it, but Cao Cao repented. I am very annoyed by such a blatant dishonesty in my heart. He attacked my Xuzhou twice, so that my Xuzhou lost face in front of the princes of the world, and now that Wenhou is here, I want to take revenge! ”

A warm wind came out and blew on the person, warm. The morning sun is so good, not too hot, but also warm. As soon as he heard that Tao Ying actually begged him to fight Cao Cao, Lu Bu was immediately relieved. He had long wanted to attack Cao Cao Jiuye, but he was defeated for the first time, and he had no food, grass and no soldiers and horses. Now that the opportunity has come, how can he miss it?

So Lu Bu hurriedly said: "The enmity of the second son is the enmity of my Lu Bu!" Although the second son said, when will the army be raised? "Lu Bu can't wait to attack Cao Cao now, taking advantage of Cao Cao's unstable foundation. Tao Ying knew that after Lü Bu was defeated and returned to Xuzhou, Cao Cao would soon bring the Son of Heaven to order the princes, and then he would expand everywhere, and his power would slowly catch up with Yuan Shao in Hebei.

But Tao Ying didn't want to watch him become bigger, so he looked at the rising sun and said to Lu Bu: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, Cao Cao is like this rising sun, if you don't defeat him at this time, stay until noon, we will suffer from it!" ”

Everyone nodded, Chen Gong was the most careful, straightened the bun that was blown by the wind, and then said with a salute: "Second son, if you send troops today, how should you deal with the grain and grass?" ”

When it comes to war, it is natural to ask for food. Although Tao Ying is poor now, Sun Ce, who knows about this, has already begun to fight his own turf, and he can't lose to him. So Tao Ying also patted his chest and said: "The grain and grass are naturally supplied by my Pengcheng Kingdom, and when Shanyang County is captured, Cao Cao has fulfilled the covenant of Shiting, and I will share Shanyang County with Wenhou equally!" ”

As soon as he heard that someone was supplying grain and grass, and after the victory, he could divide the land of Shanyang County equally, and Lu Bu was happy. After a few shirks, Lu Bu accepted Tao Ying's benefits. At the beginning of August, Lu Bu led his troops back to Xiaopei. Tao Ying and Peng Chengguo collected grain and grass for half a year in Xiapi, this is the first time to take the initiative to fight abroad, Tao Ying doesn't want to run out of grain and grass halfway.

After collecting the grain and grass, Tao Ying repaired another letter and sent it to Tan County, asking the pottery merchants of Tan County to send troops to help. At the same time, Tao Ying asked people to write a letter against Cao Cao, detailing the many crimes committed by Cao Cao against Xuzhou. At the same time, he also accused him of being a ruthless and unrighteous eunuch, and he was the most untrustworthy in keeping his promises. Therefore, Tao Ying raised 60,000 troops, led by Lu Bu to crusade against Cao Cao!

It is said that the entire Pengcheng is immersed in the joy of revenge, but Yanzhou is not happy at this time. After hearing that Tao Ying wanted Shanyang County to no avail, he sent 60,000 troops to attack Yanzhou, which was devastated by the war, and many counties in Yanzhou were frightened and wanted to surrender.

And the number of places sent by the crusade army this time is even more amazing, leading the army marshal Fei General Lu Bu and military advisor Chen Gong. The generals included several generals such as Gao Shun, the leader of the subsidence camp under Lu Bu, Zhang Liao and Hou Lian of Bingzhou. In order to train his troops, Tao Ying even sent his new generals to the front line.

These include the butcher Zhao Yun, the general Xu Sheng, and the wise general Zhuge Jin. In addition to letting Yu Ban stay in Pengcheng, Tao Ying even sent out everything he could. Li Dian was originally responsible for guarding Pengcheng, but this time he was also sent to lead the troops to fight, and at the same time, Tao Ying even let the teenage Zhuge Liang also go with the army!

The best place to learn to fight is on the battlefield!

After half a month of scheduling, Lu Bu led the soldiers and horses and began to set off from Xiaopei to Hulu, Shanyang County. Hulu is a small county town, at least it can't be compared with Pengcheng Guangqi. Lü Bu's army took Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun as the vanguard, and Li Dian and Zhuge Liang escorted grain and grass. There is exactly a river from Xiaopei to Hulu, which brings great convenience to the transportation of grain.

When Zhao Yun led his troops to Hulu County, the villages and towns he passed through heard Zhao Yun's name, and they all fled in fright. Zhao Yun defeated Lejin in one fell swoop outside Tan County, and his prestige had already spread in Yanzhou. Therefore, there was no decent resistance along the way.

When Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao met in Hulu County, they heard of Lu Bu's arrival, and Hulu County Commander had already absconded with his family property. As soon as the county order left, the soldiers and horses in the city surrendered without a fight. Hulu is a small border county, and Cao Cao has not taken care of this place. Therefore, the city wall of the county is low, and the garrison is less than a thousand people, where can they dare to resist Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao's nearly 10,000 vanguard army!

After Zhao Yun led his troops and horses to camp in Hulu for a day, Lü Bu sent another order from the rear, asking Zhao Yun to lead his troops to attack Fang He, and Zhang Liao to lead his troops to attack Gaoping. Seeing that the reinforcements from Yanzhou had not yet arrived, in order to occupy more territory, Lu Bu asked Gao Shun to lead the troops to serve as the city-state. Xu Sheng was sent to attack the state of Lu.
