Facing Cao Ying's question, Guo Jia said calmly: "Lu Bu's cavalry and the state, and the more than 100,000 iron cavalry under his command are his real reliance. Since the lord has agreed to join Yuan Shao's encirclement and suppression of Lu Bu, it is naturally reasonable for Lu Bu to send his elite Bingzhou cavalry troops to attack the lord's logistics or involve the lord's main army.

However, the lord did not have enough cavalry to compete with Lu Bu's iron cavalry, and in the face of the cavalry sent by Lu Bu, he could only fall into passive defense and could not completely eradicate it. But once the lord is caught in the attack with the cavalry troops sent by Lu Bu, not only can he not develop the government affairs of the counties in Yanzhou with peace of mind, but even if he wants to conquer Yuzhou, Xuzhou, Qingzhou and other places in the future, it depends on Lu Butong's disagreement! In this way, how can the hegemony of the lord be built?

Although Jia is not talented, since he said that he would assist the lord to achieve a hegemony, he naturally has to do his best. So after getting five hundred taels of gold, Guo Jia sent his henchmen to take the five hundred taels of gold quietly to the Tiger Prison Pass! ”

"Went to the Tiger Prison with five hundred taels of gold?! Is Feng Xiao trying to buy the Tiger Prison guard Huaxiong? If this is the case, I am afraid that Fengxiao will be disappointed, according to legend, that Huaxiong has received great favor from Lu Bu, and he is only afraid that Lu Bu is dead. Although five hundred taels of gold is a lot, it is not enough to buy Huaxiong's aerial auction. Cao Ying said with a somewhat bitter face.

A smug smile crossed the corner of Guo Jia's mouth: "The lord guessed wrong, Jia Ke didn't go to buy that Hua Xiong." Jia's target is Hua Xiong's lieutenant general - Li Su! After learning that their Houlu Tiger Pass was captured, there was no second way to go except to immediately take advantage of the fact that we had not yet cleared the wilderness, and there was no second way to go except to risk back to Wuguan from the direction of Yuzhou!

And once the Tiger Prison Pass is taken by our army, the initiative to fight with Lu Bu in the future or not will be in the hands of our army. At the same time, the lord can also use the excuse of chasing and suppressing the cavalry of the state to take advantage of the situation to attack the territory of Yuzhou. Jia came from Yuzhou, and the defenders of all the counties in Yuzhou were all old, weak, sick and disabled, and even if there were some newly recruited young soldiers, they were not trained and had no combat strength at all. As long as the lord uses 50,000 people, Yuzhou can fight down! ”

After Guo Jia left, Cao Ying quietly looked at Guo Jia's somewhat thin back, and said softly: "Cao Hua, you can relax the surveillance of Feng Xiao, as long as one or two people are responsible for watching the movements of Feng Xiao's servants, and the rest of the people are all transferred to the new Cheng Yu a few days ago." Although that Cheng Yu claims to be the same brother as Guo Jia, but people's hearts are separated from each other, and if you don't observe him for a while, you can know if he is really loyal to me? ”

As soon as Cao Ying's voice fell, behind the screen, which originally seemed to have no one at all, a hoarse reply came: "Obey the orders of the head of the family!" ”

Tiger Prison Pass General's Mansion.

"Brother Li Su, yesterday General Zhao Yun asked us to send the military report to Luoyang, did you send it away?" Hua Xiong wiped the sweat that had just flowed from his martial arts practice, and asked Li Su, who was standing aside.

Li Su glanced at Hua Xiong with complicated eyes before replying, "The messenger sent to Luoyang has already left the customs early this morning. ”

"Hahaha, Brother Li Su is really my right-hand man, if it weren't for your help, how could I practice the sword technique left to me by my lord without your help?" Hua Xiong walked over and patted Li Su's shoulder cordially, then hummed a small song from the Kansai countryside, and went back to the house to rest with a big knife.

Li Su rubbed his somewhat sore shoulders, and said with a wry smile in his heart, "This reckless man's strength is a little bigger, and he really deserves to be a military general valued by that man." ’

But thinking of this, Li Su suddenly showed a terrifying hideous look on his face and whispered: "But why, why does that person despise me?" I surrendered at the same time as Hua Xiong, why did Hua Xiong's official position rise steadily, but my position did not advance but retreated? Even the three thousand soldiers of the Xiliang Army under his command in the past were all handed over to Hua Xiong to command? Why are you targeting me like this! Lu Bu! I, Li Su, must make you regret it! ”

Dividing line

"Is there any military intelligence on the side of the Xiliang Army?" Lu Bu sat on the main seat of the meeting hall of the Hanguguan General's Mansion, correcting some important official documents sent by Luoyang, and asked Gao Shun next to him.

"Big brother, all the detailed works we sent have come to report, Chang'an has recently mobilized some Xiliang sergeants from Xiliang and Sanfu and other places, these sergeants went to Chang'an just to strengthen the defense of the city, and they did not have any intention of sending troops to Hangu." Gao Shun arched his hand and reported to Lu Buyu.

"Hehe, I said a long time ago, the eldest brother doesn't need to worry about Chang'an at all, since Dong Zhuo's death, the Xiliang Army has made a lot of trouble in Chang'an for the sake of their own power. I heard that Li Ru, the former think-tank of the Western Liang Army, also abandoned Li Xu, Guo Yan and others, and the current Western Liang Army has nothing to worry about. The eldest brother might as well leave some sergeants to guard this Hangu Pass, and then we should support the other three ways earlier, maybe I can kill the 180 fucking enemy troops, which is better than the pleasure of spending time here! Zhang Fei yawned a little boredly, and said, 'Bewitch', Lu Bu said early to take him out of Hangu Pass, where birds don't lay eggs.

Lu Bu directly ignored Zhang Fei's 'opinion', and continued to ask without raising his head: "Is there any news about Wenyuan, Hansheng, and Zilong's three-way army at the Nabo level?" ”

Gao Shun opened a scroll of bamboo slips and said to Lu Bu: "Zilong's Eastern Route Army has now turned from the direction of Puyang to Jiyin, and it is said that Mr. Wenhe, the military master of the army, saw through the trap laid by Cao Ying in the direction of Puyang, so he changed the direction of the march.

It is said that they had fought with Yuan Shao's general Koji Yi in Wu'an County, Guangping County, and it is said that Koyi's first deceased soldier actually relied on the crossbow in his hand, so that Huang Hansheng's Northern Route Army injured more than 3,000 people, and forced Huang Hansheng to change the original plan from Guangping County through Wei County and Qinghe County and then into Bohai County, where Yuan Shao was based, and now they are moving to Changshan County.

As for Wen Yuan, they marched all the way smoothly, not only did they not have any damage, but they also took advantage of the unpreparedness of some small cities in Yuan Shu to capture two county seats! Of course, the clerks only distributed the grain and grass in the city to the people in the city, and then left the county seat, after all, the task given to them by the eldest brother was not to conquer the city.

In general, these three roads all involved Cao Ying, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu.

"Report! Emergency military situation, woe to the Tiger Prison!! Before Gao Shun's words were finished, a terrible voice interrupted Gao Shun's words.
