Xiangyi.

"Report ...... Qi Yu lord, the front of the horse returns, the Jiangdong soldiers and horses have arrived at the front, someone saw Sun Ce's general flag in Yan County! ”

"It's good to come!" Lu Bu was overjoyed when he heard this, slapped the table hard, and stood up: "In recent years, I have often heard of this person's reputation, and he is also a brave person, and he just came to sacrifice my painted halberd!" Sons, get ready for battle! Chengming, quickly sent a message to Wen Yuan, asking him to leave Huang Hansheng to keep an eye on Xiahou Yuan, and he led the light troops to the west, and after attacking Sun Ce's side, he gave him an ambush on all sides! ”

"The last general commands!" Cao Xing is also extremely excited, and the border army of the state has gone south since the sixth year of Zhongping, and has the prestige of being a strong soldier in the world, but it has never fought any convincing hard battles.

Originally, it was not the turn of a pure martial artist like Cao Xing to do this kind of herald, but since the Puyang Rebellion, there was no one left around Lu Bu.

In addition to Cao Xing, the only remaining fruits are Gao Shun and Cheng Lian, although Wei Xu is also in the army, but with the lessons of the past, Lu Bu does not dare to let go. And Gao Shun's trapping camp is usually based on independent combat, so the only one who can be used as a deputy general is Cao Xing. Cao Xing is still from a poor family, and after spending some books, Cheng Lian is purely a grassroots, and he doesn't know a single big character.

Gao Shun was silent before, but after Zhang Liao left, he also consciously took on the responsibility of admonishment, seeing that Lu Bu was a little carried away, he hurriedly reminded: "Lord, please ask Wen Yuan to come to help in the war, do you want to discuss it with General Wang first?" Although in terms of the art of war, Wen Yuan should have come, but ......"

"Hmm......" Lu Bu groaned slightly. He's never been known for his resourcefulness, but that doesn't mean he's brainless. Gao Shun's unfinished meaning, he understood it at once.

It doesn't matter how it used to be. Now that Zhang Liao is already the general of Qingzhou, if Lu Bu does not pass through Wang Yu and commands Zhang Liao, then it will cause great trouble for both sides. After all, the two armies have not been merged into one, even if Wang Yu does not care about Lu Bu overstepping his authority, Zhang Liao is very likely to be marked as being in the Han camp and his heart is in Puyang, which will definitely be very detrimental to the future future.

Meaning understood. But with Lu Bu's character, it was not easy to make him change his words, and the atmosphere suddenly became dull.

"There's no need to be so troublesome, the fighter is fleeting, and the most important thing is to accurately grasp the fighter."

Wei Yan saw that the situation was very fast, and hurriedly stood up to play a round: "It's better to be like this, let the last general inform Brother Wen Yuan of the situation here, and let him judge for himself." With Wenyuan's strategy, he must know what to do is the best. My father-in-law is very generous. I don't care about these details. ”

"It's so good, there's Lauwen long." Lu Bu stepped down, breathed a sigh of relief, and instructed Cao Xing again: "Chengming." You personally led the team and kept an eye on the Jiangdong Army for me. ”

"Don't worry, lord!" Cao Xuan bowed down to receive the order and nodded to Gao Shun and Wei Yan. Out of the account.

"Generals can mobilize troops and horses if they report the military situation to each other? I really won't be ...... Suspicion? Gao Shun didn't rush to leave. Instead, he grabbed Wei Yan and asked in a low voice.

He had a good point. The Han Dynasty's control over the military was not as severe as that of the later Song and Ming dynasties. However, such a major matter as mobilizing the armed forces always has to go through the commander-in-chief, especially the coordinated operation across theaters. If there is no such rule, wouldn't it be dangerous for the generals to connect with each other and raise troops to cause chaos?

Wang Yu's strictness in governing the army is very famous among the princes, and Wei Yan communicates with Zhang Liao in private so casually, no matter how you look at it, it is a little out of place.

After the raid battle a few days ago, Gao Shun and Wei Yan fought side by side, and there was a lot of cooperation in the early stage of lurking, camouflage and later raids, and there was a bit of sympathy. He was afraid that Wei Yan would put himself in order to take care of his father-in-law's face.

"Rest assured, rest assured." Wei Yan smiled: "Xunyi should have heard that the style of my lord is not quite the same as that of ordinary princes. His majesty does not use power techniques, or even imperial mental techniques, but likes to set rules......"

"Rules?" Gao Shun was stunned.

"The head of my family advocates the spirit of the Legalist prince breaking the law and committing the same crime with the common people, and at the same time is influenced by the equality and love of the Mohists, and has his own opinions on Confucianism and Taoism. Hundreds of schools of thought are one, and the last thing that comes out is the current set of laws in Qingzhou. He always said that the testimonies are not perfect, they are not flawless, but that they are based on what kind of philosophy they are based on......"

Wei Yan's answer seemed a bit off-topic, but to explain the uniqueness of Qingzhou, he had to start with the basics. In addition, with Wei Yan's scheming, how could he give up such a good opportunity for self-promotion? Of course, we must take the opportunity to instill more ideas in Lu Bu and others, so as to integrate them in the future.

"It's the same with military regulations, of course, there are risks for generals to connect with each other, and it's the same with judging the situation for yourself. But the general will not be subject to the order of the monarch outside, if there are too many constraints, can Huo Yanyao still have the mighty record of fighting thousands of miles and sealing the wolf? Anyway, as long as it doesn't violate the military regulations clearly stipulated, you don't have to worry about the main account. ”

While explaining, Wei Yan also paid attention to Lu Bu's expression, and didn't see much information, but he could see that Lu Bu was listening and thinking, so he was very satisfied.

"Report ...... Enlightened lord, the hussar general sent an envoy to deliver a letter! The military situation is like flowing water, and all parties involved in the war have become accustomed to it, Lu Bu waved his hand and said: "Why don't you hurry up?" ”

After a while, a dusty young man walked in quickly, and when Wei Yan saw the comer, he was immediately stunned, and said in a lost voice: "Zijing, why are you here?" ”

He couldn't help but be surprised, in the pre-war arrangement, Lu Su was a left-behind official and wore many hats. On the one hand, he has to sit in Liyang and be responsible for logistics operations, and on the other hand, he must be ready to assemble militia at any time to resist foreign enemies. Neither of these two tasks is easy, how can you have time to be a messenger and come all the way to Xiangyi?

You must know that at this moment, Chen Liucheng has not yet fallen, and Lu Bujun in Xiangyi is somewhat alone and deep, and it is really strange for Lu Su to appear at this time.

Lu Su nodded at Wei Yan, without meaning to explain, he took out a letter directly from his sleeve, handed it over with both hands, and said in a deep voice: "My lord has something important to inform Wen Hou, the letter is here, please Wen Hou take a look!" ”

Lu Bu also realized that something very serious might have happened, so he took the letterhead with a solemn expression, looked at it urgently, and after reading a few lines, he showed an extremely shocked look.

"Zijing, this letter is indeed from Pengju's hand?" Lu Bu's tone was a little questioning, which was already quite unkind, which showed how unbelievable the content in his heart was.

"The lord specially sent the last general to come in order to relieve Wen Hou's doubts." Lu Su's answer was very pertinent.

"But ......" Lu Bu swung hard, as if he wanted to slap the table to vent, but he stopped halfway with his arm, and stopped talking, with a very strange expression on his face.

"Lord, what the hell ......is this" Gao Shun and Wei Yan glanced at each other, and they were surprised and inexplicable.

"Wen Chang Shicai also said that your father-in-law does things in an eclectic way, and he often has a stroke of genius, and now it has come true." Lu Bu sighed hesitantly: "Take a look for yourself, I really don't understand, what is this kid thinking...... " said and handed the letter over casually.

Gao Shun received the letter in his hand, and he also swept it at a glance, and after reading it, the frowning brows could be clearly seen on his face, which had never had superfluous expressions.

Immediately afterwards, the letter was passed to Wei Yan, but even Wang Yu's favorite general was dumbfounded, and just looked at Lu Su in a daze, waiting for the other party to give a reasonable explanation.

"Zijing, the lord won't have retired from Chuilong City now, right? Just because you're worried that something might go wrong with the state? ”

Wei Yan was really a little confused.

Wang Yu's worries about the battlefield of Bingzhou are not unreasonable, but as long as he is on the battlefield, the risk must exist, and who can avoid it?

Even if the most extreme situation occurs, the scale of the internal strife in the Xiliang Army is really not large, and it is quickly pacified, but the chief and deputy commanders of the Western Front Army are not mediocre, and the soldiers and horses under their command are all elite in a hundred battles, so they will not be defeated by one blow, right?

Not to mention that the infighting in the Xiliang Army has become inevitable, even if it is not, with the ability of Xu Shu and Xu Huang, it is a half-way victory to go out of the fortress and fight a head-on battle with the Xiliang Army, how can you worry about this?

You must know that the current situation on the battlefield in the Central Plains is not generally good, but greatly favorable, and it is the time when the momentum is like a rainbow and the victory is pursued! Just because of such a small worry, he gave up the victorious retreat in hand, which is not the style of his own lord at all.

Regarding Wei Yan's question, Lu Su once again gave a positive answer with a serious expression: "Counting the time, it is today, the lord should withdraw his troops from Chuilong City...... Before the last general set off, he repeatedly told the last general to urge Wen Hou to retreat as soon as possible, so as not to become a lone soldier after Cao Cao reacted! ”

He said a word to the two of them, the front was to answer Wei Yan, and the back was to Lu Bu.

"This kid...... He deliberately calculated the time, just so that there was no choice! Lu Bu's face was very ugly.

A moment ago, he was still planning a battle with the world-famous Jiangdong Xiaobawang to wash away the depression that has been suppressed in recent years. As a result, as soon as the order was issued, Wang Yu sent Lu Su to persuade him to retreat, and after retreating, for a foreseeable period of time, he would return to his previous state and stick to a certain line of defense, how could he accept this?

"The lord is also a last resort, the latest news on the Western Front said that Yuan Zhi has already planned a large-scale battle after the success of the separation."

Lu Su said earnestly: "If everything goes well, it's fine, if there is a case in the merger of states, and the Central Plains battlefield falls into a stalemate again, then there is really a danger of total collapse!" My lord knows that Wen Hou is brave and fearless, so he also used some scheming, but after all, it is a hard work, and Wen Hou should check it."

"At this time, he is going to hold on." Lu Bu muttered a few words in a low voice, and finally waved his hand in a happy manner: "Forget it, it's also his to fight down this day, he is not in a hurry, what kind of fire is he following?" Xunyi, go and give the order, this is the overnight withdrawal of troops! ”

"Whoa!"
