The first echelon of 1,000 heavily armed iron cavalry is certainly impressive, and the army that follows it is also an elite division with a well-equipped temperament. Armored infantry in strong armor and armed with sharp soldiers, assault cavalry with swift movements, crossbowmen, sword and shield soldiers, pikemen, etc., the cold light is better than the snow, and the formation is like a mountain.

The audience was dizzying, and their emotions involuntarily became more and more excited, and the shouts came and went. When the finale of the parade appeared in front of everyone, the scene was completely boiling, it was an echelon composed of dozens of new combat vehicles, it was a fully enclosed armored combat vehicle, and the war horses that pulled it were also wrapped in iron armor, rumbling with the earth, pushing mountains and seas, unstoppable!

Xun Yu's expression moved, as an expert, as soon as he saw that kind of chariot, he realized that the chariot would definitely be able to exert unimaginable terrifying impact in the field front!

When the last echelon disappeared behind the street shots, Zhang Lang walked to the front and, according to the pre-established script, he asked his subjects to give a speech.

As soon as the people below saw Zhang Lang in armor, they couldn't help but bow down one after another, "Meet the general!" The shouts came and went like a mountain and a tsunami.

Xun Yu, who was standing behind Zhang Lang, looked at Zhang Lang's back with a somewhat complicated expression.

……

The hall of the General's Palace.

Zhang Lang sat at the top, Xun Yu as a guest of honor sat at the head of the left, and Jia Xu sat at the head of the right, and there were only three of them in the hall.

Xun Yu clasped his fist at Zhang Lang, "General, in addition to conveying my lord's respect for the general, I also want to discuss the affairs of the alliance. The general and my lord were both oppressed by Yuan Shao, and cooperation is beneficial to both sides, and division is harmful to two, I don't know what the general wants? ”

Zhang Lang exchanged a look with Jia Xu, smiled and said to Xun Yu: "I can't hide it, I also have this intention." ”

Xun Yu was overjoyed, "In this case, it is better for you and me to sign a formal covenant and announce it to the outside world, so as to deter those wrongdoers!" ”

Zhang Lang understood that Xun Yu wanted to use this to make Yuan Shao have scruples before making a move against Cao Cao, but this matter was not beneficial to himself? nodded and glanced at Jia Xu, "For specific things, Mr. Wen Ruo can talk to Wen He." ”

Xun Yu smiled and hugged his fist at Jia Xu and said, "Then it's troublesome Brother Wenhe." ”

Jia Xu smiled and returned the salute, "Wen Ruo doesn't have to be polite. ”

Zhang Lang smiled, "Okay, let's talk." "Stood up. Jia Xu and Xun Yu hurriedly stood up and sent Zhang Lang off. Zhang Lang left through the side door.

After Zhang Lang left, Jia Xu and Xun Yu consulted on the details of the alliance.

Zhang Lang strolled along the corridor, feeling relaxed. Unconsciously came to the palace gate in the back garden, heard music and laughter coming from the garden, and was curious, so I walked in.

From a distance, I saw Diao Chan and the Li family sisters dancing on the grass, dancing and looking happy, while Yan Yuyao was sitting cross-legged on the side and stroking the piano, smiling.

Zhang Lang almost thought that he had broken into the Yaochi Immortal Pavilion by mistake, otherwise how could there be so many stunning women in the world?

……

Xun Yu left Chang'an soon after, returning to Yanzhou, along with an envoy sent by Zhang Lang.

Yanzhou, the lobby of the governance office.

"My lord." Xun Yu, who was in the dust, saluted.

Cao Cao said with emotion: "Wen Ruo's trip makes me very worried!" I'm relieved to be back! ”

Xun Yu was moved in his heart, "Thank you Lord Gongji." ”

Cao Cao smiled, "Wen Ruo's trip, how did you get from this trip?" ”

"Fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life." He immediately took out a roll of bamboo slips from his sleeve cage and presented it to Cao Cao, "This is the alliance document signed between his subordinates and Lu Bu, please take a look at it." ”

Cao Cao hurriedly got up, walked quickly to Xun Yu, took the bamboo slip, looked at it quickly, and said excitedly: "Okay!" That's great! In this way, Lu Bu and I are one east and one west, and it will be even more difficult for Yuan Shao to plot against us! ”

Xun Yu said: "I'm afraid that Yuan Shao won't dare to plot against Lu Bu." ”

Cao Cao put away the bamboo slips, "It's like doing business, everyone is profitable, this business can be done, otherwise only your family will benefit, who will do business with you?" Looking at Xun Yu, "Did Lu Bu send a messenger?" ”

Xun Yu hugged his fists and said: "Those who came up with their subordinates are now temporarily living in the guest house." ”

Cao Cao nodded, "I'll see him again tomorrow, let him rest and rest today." ”

"No. There is one more thing that needs to be reported to the Lord. ”

"Oh? What's up? ”

Xun Yu frowned and said, "Lu Bu is only afraid that it is even more unfathomable than we expected before!" ”

Cao Cao was surprised, "Why did Wen Ruo say this?" ”

Xun Yu told what he saw and heard in Chang'an.

Cao Cao frowned, his face showed contemplation, and he glanced at Xun Yu, "Wen Ruo thinks, how is Lu Bu better than Yuan Shao?" Xun Yu couldn't help but smile, "Yuan Shao can be compared to a deer, and Lu Bu is a tiger!" ”

Cao Cao was taken aback, "Then, how does he compare to me?" ”

Xun Yu thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's hard to tell the difference!" The lord is better at strategy and internal affairs, while Lu Bu is better at military affairs, and the lord and Lu Bu have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they are generally comparable! ”

Cao Cao was very surprised, "Wen Ruo's evaluation of him is so high?" ”

There was a lot of discussion in the hall, some people didn't think much of Xun Yu's words, and some felt incredulous.

Xun You frowned and said, "Lu Bu is just a brave man, my uncle's evaluation of him is too much, right?" ”

Xun Yu shook his head and said to Cao Cao: "If I hadn't seen him with my own eyes, I would have thought the same, but after seeing him with my own eyes and talking to him, I found that the world had mistaken him!" He is just a brave man, and he is clearly a cunning and deep tiger! Then he clenched his fists in an accentuated tone and said: "The lord must not be despised ah!" ”

Cao Cao nodded, "Wen Ruo's words, I believe it!" ”

Xun Yu was moved in his heart and remembered something, "By the way, there is another thing, Lu Bu made a military parade on the occasion of New Year's Day to gather people's hearts, the effect is very good, we can also follow suit!" ”

"A military parade?"

Xun Yu immediately explained.

Cao Cao said with a smile: "This matter is good, you can review the three armies, and you can gather people's hearts to improve morale!" Glancing at Xun Yu, "Since the elite of the Lu Bu Army is exhausted, what does Wen Ruo think of the combat power of the Lu Bu Army?" ”

"Very strong!"

The two short words made Cao Cao frown, "Compared to our army?" ”

Xun Yu thought for a moment, "Our infantry may be able to compete with it, but the cavalry is by no means its opponent!" ”

Hum! A cold snort sounded in the lobby, containing a very dissatisfied taste, the person who spoke out was none other than Xiahou Dun, the commander of the cavalry of the Cao army, he heard that his cavalry was not the opponent of Lu Bu's cavalry, and he was very unconvinced.

Xun Yu clenched his fists and smiled: "Yuan let the general calm his anger, and he will never dare to despise the general, in fact, the iron cavalry of the general commander is invincible in the world except for Lu Bu!" ”

Xiahoudun didn't say anything.

Cao Cao muttered: "According to what Wen Ruo said, this Lu Bu is a greater threat than Yuan Shao!" ”

"That's right, the lord must be prepared in advance."

Cao Cao smiled incomprehensibly.
