Seeing Lu Bu say this, it strengthened Chen Gong's determination to subdue Du Chen, and Chen Gong continued: "If Wen Hou can subdue Du Chen, he will definitely be able to sit in Yanzhou in a very short time, and at that time, even if Cao Cao comes back with his army, it will be difficult to become a climate." ”

Hearing this, Lu Bu's eyes lit up. After running around for a long time, Lu Bu ran to several people one after another, and then he knew that only he was the master could decide his own fate. But although Lu Bu has this idea, he does not have this capital. Although he has an army in his hands, he does not have a trace of territory. No territory means no money and no food, no territory, even if you have more troops, it is difficult to feed, and no territory, no matter how strong you are, you are just a gang of gangsters.

Lu Bu knew the pain of not having a territory, which was why he relied so much on Chen Gong's willingness. Because without Chen Gong, Lu Bu was still worried about finding territory. However, according to Chen Gong, although he won most of Yanzhou, he was unpopular. You must know that Cao Cao has been operating in Yanzhou for a long time, and many people in Yanzhou were abducted by Du Chen from Qingzhou, so it is not an exaggeration to say that Cao Cao is in the hearts of the people in Yanzhou. And now if you take one person, you can take the whole of Yanzhou, which makes Lu Bu not moved.

Then Lü Bu instructed the soldier: "Go back and tell Zhang Liao to camp outside Xuchang City, and then I will personally lead the army to attack Xuchang City." The soldier hurriedly turned and ran. After the soldiers went down, Lu Bu opened his mouth and asked Chen Gong, "Is there a good way to break the enemy in Gongtai?" Chen Gong thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "Xuchang is Cao Cao's lair, it will definitely not be as easy to conquer as other places, and it is still Du Chen who guards this city, so it will be even more difficult." But no matter how difficult it is, it is necessary to break through Xuchang. can't leave the slightest respite for Cao Cao, he must eliminate Cao Cao in a very short time, otherwise, with Cao Cao's strength, give him a little respite, then Yanzhou will still be his Cao Cao's. ”

After Chen Gong finished speaking, Lu Bu made up his mind to attack Xuchang. Then Lu Bu said proudly: "I don't care how long he operates, I don't care who guards the city, I will let him submit to my and the state's iron cavalry." Pass on my order, let the soldiers eat and drink enough, tomorrow we will go to Xuchang, I want to pacify Yanzhou in a battle and then eliminate Cao Cao in peace. ”

After Lu Bu finished speaking, Chen Gong finally smiled, and then turned around and went down to prepare. On the city wall of Xuchang City, Du Chen overlooked Lu Bu's military camp in the distance. Looking at Lu Bu's army, which was preparing to set up camp, Du Chen's expression was very solemn. It is obvious that he is waiting for reinforcements, and it is obvious that Lu Bu is determined to take Xuchang. For this result, Du Chen had already thought of it. Xuchang is the foundation of Yanzhou, and only by taking Xuchang can you take the whole of Yanzhou. Lu Bu may not be aware of this, but Chen Gong behind him obviously won't be aware of it. Since Chen Gong knew, he would definitely let Lu Bu attack Xuchang with all his might.

"Silang, what do you think?" Looking at Lu Bu's army outside Xuchang City, Cheng Yu beside Du Chen asked. Since all the generals under Lu Bu's command are capable of fighting, how can the border guards stop them? Even without Lu Bu's move, the Lü Zhang coalition army also swept Yanzhou, leaving only Chengfan County and Dong'e County to be defended by Cheng Yu with a few calculations. But if one person is poor, how long can Cheng Yu keep it alone? Therefore, soon, Cheng Yu came to Xuchang to help Du Chen protect Xuchang.

Du Chen turned his head to look at Cheng Yu, and Du Chen said: "The sneak attack is unsuccessful, obviously the army will retreat, and now that Lu Bujun is encamped, it is obvious that he will not give up if he does not break through Xuchang." "I think the same way!" Cheng Yu took a step forward, looked at Lu Bu's army from a distance and said.

Faced with such a situation, Cheng Yu's face was very bad. He knows the current situation in Xuchang City, and Lu Bujun is like a wolf and a tiger, in the face of such a situation, Cheng Yu doesn't know how to solve it. "Zhongde doesn't need to be like this, no matter who he is, if he wants to take Xuchang, I have to let him grit his teeth." Du Chen stared at Lu Bu's army outside Xuchang City and said fiercely.

"That's right, I must let that Lu Bu know that although our army is not well garrisoned, he Lu Bu is not qualified to touch Xuchang." Influenced by Du Chen, Cheng Yu also said with confidence. Du Chen pointed to Lu Bu's military camp and said to Cheng Yu beside him: "Since you want to say that he should grit his teeth, then I will knock out his front teeth first." ”

"What does Si Lang mean to destroy Lu Bu's prestige first? But can it work? Cheng Yu said with some uncertainty. You must know that Lu Bu's army is all experienced in a hundred battles, and on the other hand, the Cao army in Xuchang City is only 10,000 elite soldiers. "In order to sneak attack Xuchang, this team of light cavalry is definitely lightly armed, and they have to come all the way, so they must be sleepy and tired." Du Chen's eyes flashed with wisdom, and he said to Cheng Yu on the side. "In that case, then the military affairs will be handed over to Silang."

As he spoke, Cheng Yu was about to turn around and walk down the city with a smile on his face. Looking at Cheng Yu's back, Du Chen shouted to Cheng Yu in a loud voice: "Leave the military affairs to me, and the garrison affairs will be handed over to you Zhongde." After listening to Du Chen's words, Cheng Yu was obviously a little unstable in his center of gravity, and he almost fell to the ground. And Du Chen, who was behind Cheng Yu, was unusually happy when he saw Cheng Yu's appearance, pointing at Cheng Yu and smiling very shamelessly. You must know that this battle is a defensive battle, and the most tiring thing is to prepare to defend the city. And Du Chen's words just now pushed this matter to himself. I thought I was yin for a while, but I didn't expect to be yin by Du Chen.

"Zhongde, you also said that I am in charge of the military, and you are in charge of internal affairs. Since you are in charge of internal affairs, the preparation is naturally left to you. And I just have to lead the troops into battle. Du Chen said to Cheng Yu with a wicked smile. After finishing speaking, Du Chen didn't give Cheng Yu a chance to refute, and hurriedly left with Dian Wei. Looking at the backs of Du Chen and Dian Wei leaving, Cheng Yu spurted out a mouthful of old blood. At night, Du Chen explained Fang Yue alone in the conference hall, and then said to Fang Yue: "Wuji, you must have guessed the purpose of this today." Fang Yue opened his mouth and asked, "Sir, do you have to surprise the enemy army outside the city?" ”

"Hmm!" Du Chen nodded, and then said to Fang Yue in a slightly calm tone: "The enemy army outside the city is menacing, I want to dispel the momentum of the enemy army outside the city." You also know that there are only more than 10,000 soldiers defending the city, and the enemy's reinforcements are also coming, if you can't dispel the enemy's momentum. When the enemy army arrives, it will really be defeated. Fang Yue listened to Du Chen's words, his expression was very heavy, and after being silent for a while, he then spoke: "Sir, please rest assured, Wuji will complete the task." ”

"Hmm!"

Du Chen nodded, and then said: "Zhang Liao traveled lightly in order to sneak attack Xuchang, and he must be sleepy and tired all the way, but this person is not good at his peers, he will definitely guess that I will attack at night, so I am ready to make a plan." "That being said, but Du Chen is really a little bottomless about this matter, and he can only hope that Fang Yue can thwart the enemy army." Be careful along the way! Du Chen said to Fang Yue, and then watched Fang Yue walk out. After leaving the house, Fang Yue hurriedly headed towards the city gate with a thousand Cao army soldiers. Taking advantage of the night, a thousand soldiers of the Cao army quietly touched out of Xuchang City and quietly walked towards Lu Bu's army.
