Chapter 64: Back to Camp

Coming out of Xu Rong's Taishou Mansion, Lu Bu went home first to visit his wife and daughter, and after seeing that they were already asleep, Lu Bu headed towards the Bingzhou camp.

In a conversation with Xu Rong just now, Lu Bu roughly understood the offensive route of the Baibo army, the first way was headed by Guo Tai of the Baibo army, leading 30,000 troops to attack Hedong, they connected the counties of Jieliang, Wenxi, Anyi, etc., and the soldiers pointed directly at Jiguan, the second road was headed by Yang Feng, they Liankepuban, Puzhou, Taiyang and other counties joined forces with Guo Tai to attack Jiguan, and the third road was led by Li Le and Hu Cai, leading 40,000 troops to garrison Zhongtiao Mountain, so as not to prevent Dong Zhuo from sending troops to copy Guo Tai's back road from Shaanxi.

This Guo Tai is not stupid, he actually thought of asking someone to guard Zhongtiao Mountain, although so, but this Bai Bo Army is destined to be removed, because the Bai Bo Army is not only Dong Zhuo's henchman, but also Lu Bu's henchman, Lu Bu wants to capture Yizhou, this Chang'an is his retreat, just like a businessman goes out to do business, and there is a gang of robbers at his doorstep, maybe one day they will kill in and rob their own things. So this white wave thief must be eliminated, or even disappear.

Lu Bu galloped all the way, the red rabbit horse ran fast, about the time of galloping a stick of incense, Lu Bu saw the Bingzhou camp a hundred miles away on the bank of the Bianshui River.

Counting nine cold days, the whole world has become a big ice cellar, the mountains are shivering with cold, the rivers are frozen as iron, and the air seems to be solidifying. Even if it is bitterly cold, the ten miles of the camp in Bingzhou is full of soldiers patrolling with knives inside and out, and there is no slack in the cold weather, even if there is no war, this is a tradition that the Bingzhou army has had since it arrived in Ding Yuan, and it is even more appropriate to spread it to Zhang Liao.

Sima guarding the camp gate heard the sound of horses' hooves, and immediately waved his hand, and the soldiers drew their bows like autumn moons, as long as the gate guard Sima gave an order, they would not hesitate to release the bowstring, and shoot the enemy into a hedgehog.

Gradually, Lu Bu rode his horse to the front of the camp, and looked at the stern soldiers, and the man nodded with satisfaction.

"It's the lord who is back, open the camp gate, it's the lord who is back" When Sima who was guarding the gate of the village saw the person coming clearly, he immediately yelled excitedly.

With the order of the gatekeeper Sima, accompanied by a loud horn piercing the sky, the heavy camp gate of the state camp was slowly opened.

Zheng Hun, who was discussing matters with Chen Gong, suddenly heard the sound of the horn and immediately sent someone to inquire about the situation, and after a while, he received a news that made him excited, Lu Bu was back.

Zheng Hun quickly put down the matter in his hand and walked towards Lu Bu's Zhongjun tent with Chen Gong.

When Zheng Hun and Chen Gong arrived at Lu Bu's Chinese army tent, the generals of the state army had already waited at the door of the big tent, such as Huang Zhong, Zhang Xiu, Cheng Lian, Cao Xing and other generals, when they saw Zheng Hun coming, all the generals shouted to the two: "Mr. Wengong, Mr. Gongtai." ”

"Where is the lord?" Zheng Hun came up and asked loudly.

"Mr. Wengong, don't worry, it's at least two miles from the Zhaimen to the Chinese army's tent, and I only need to wait a while to see the lord."

After Zhang Liao left, all military affairs were handed over to Huang Zhong to take care of, first, Huang Zhong's martial arts were strong and could serve the public, and Huang Zhong was loyal and selfless. And Huang Zhong did not disappoint Zhang Liao, and put the state camp in order.

Seeing that Zheng Hun's beard trembled in his jaw because of his excitement, Huang Zhong immediately stepped forward and explained to Zheng Hun slowly.

Things were really as Huang Zhong said, everyone only waited for a moment, and then they saw Lu Bu coming slowly on horseback with a handkuff, and before Lu Bu got off the horse, everyone bowed on one knee: "See the lord"

Looking at the soldiers who were so excited that they burst into tears, Lu Bu immediately turned over and dismounted, took a few steps forward and said, "You have worked hard, go, follow my account." ”

After Lu Bu finished speaking, he waved his big sword and took the lead in stepping into the big tent of the Chinese army.

When everyone saw this, they also got up and followed.

As soon as Lu Bu and the others entered the big tent, a soldier walked in with a stove, and the charcoal fire in the furnace rose, and after a while, the big tent that no one had come to for a long time raised the temperature a little, Lu Bu rubbed his hands, looked at the Wenchen generals below and said: "In these days when you are not here, you have worked hard."

The people below hurriedly waved their hands to indicate that they were not hard.

When the temperature in the tent gradually warmed up, Lu Bu leaned back on the tiger skin chair and said, "I have received a military order from Dong Zhuo, asking me to lead the army to Jiguan. ”

"Jiguan" Chen Gong muttered, raised his head and asked, "Could it be that the White Wave Thief is coming?" ”

Lu Bu looked at Chen Gong and nodded appreciatively, in the end, it was still Chen Gong, and his resourcefulness was not much worse than Xun Yu, but he was a little late in making a plan.

"The White Wave Thief is coming, what are you asking us to do in Keiguan?" Zhang Xiu then asked.

LΓΌ Bu then told the generals the news of the White Wave Thieves' attack on Henan and Hedong and the defeat of Niu Fu.

After hearing this, the generals were in an uproar, even the Xiliang army couldn't defeat the white wave thief, what kind of battle did this white wave thief have.

Chen Gong took a step forward and said: "Looking at the reasons for the defeat of the Xiliang Army, there are actually two reasons, the first is related to the extremely strong combat effectiveness of the White Wave Thieves themselves, the predecessor of the White Wave Thieves was the Yellow Turban Army, and now it has been a while since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, they can survive in the cracks of the princes for so long, and the combat effectiveness is not too low, this second is related to the Xiliang Army, since Dong Zhuo dominated the Beijing Division, the Xiliang Army has long lost the sharpness of the year, and the White Wave Army has been fighting with the official army all year round in order to survive. Or the war with the Huns, which had already sharpened the Baibo army into a sharp sword. ”

"What Gongtai said is true, but the state army is not the Xiliang army, and I, Lu Bu, am not Dong Zhuo, so I decided to send troops to Jiguan, as for how many troops to bring those generals, we will discuss it when Wenyuan returns to the camp tomorrow."

When the generals heard that Lu Bu was going to go on the expedition, they all looked at him with high morale, wanting to take this vanguard seal, but they never thought that Lu Bu's last sentence would break their illusions, and they lowered their heads one by one, like defeating a rooster.

Looking at the generals who were in a little depressed mood, Lu Brown said: "Whether it is an expedition or not an expedition, it is for the development of our state army in the future, I hope you will not be discouraged, after saying that, you will have to fight the battle, and you don't care about this stubble." ”

The generals felt that Lu Bu was reasonable, and they all agreed.

"Zheng Hun and Huang Zhong listen to orders"

Although it will only be determined tomorrow how many soldiers and how many generals will be sent, it is still necessary to order the troops and horses first, and prepare the grain and grass sufficiently, Lu Bu immediately ordered the two of them.

After the two heard this, they immediately walked out of the ranks and looked at Lu Bu respectfully.

"Order Zheng Hun to gather 10,000 loads of grain and grass, and Huang Zhong to order 60,000 soldiers and horses to assemble and stand by, there must be no mistake"

"No" The two immediately agreed in a deep voice.

Seeing that things had been almost arranged, Lu Bu asked Huang Zhong to stay, and then dismissed everyone.
