Chapter 119: Preparing for War
Lu Bu couldn't help frowning, it seems that Cao Cao is still unwilling!
Lu Bu said solemnly: "Immediately send an airship to Jizhou to check the intelligence, and send another message to Han Sheng, telling him to prepare for battle." ”
After the order, Lu Bu also made a statement in the newspaper, that is, he advised Cao Cao to stay calm and never do stupid things.
Seeing the newspaper, Cao Cao was so angry that he fell.
Calm down, I'm calm down. Who said that I was doing stupid things, and I was defeated and merged, look at how you drag it.
Hmph, since the news can't be hidden, let Lu Bu know how powerful he is.
Cannons, not only you have it, but also the prime minister.
It's just that it's not easy to fight a battle. The preparation is too huge.
What's more, it is still an aggressive plan against the entire annexed state.
You know, the cannon is so heavy that it will take months to carry it.
In addition, Cao Cao also took advantage of the situation.
Because Lu Bu was called the king, he no longer called the prince, and this status was too bad.
Now that the Yuan clan has been pacified by him and has broken through Wuheng, his merits are enough, and there is no problem with calling the public.
Moreover, the rank of the civil and military under his command is too low. Only when he is called a duke can he open a government and vassals on his own.
And this is also Cao Cao's step to completely get rid of Liu Xie.
Does Liu Xie have a way, he has no way. had no choice but to seal Cao Cao as the Duke of Wei and add nine tin.
Now it is only 206 AD, but in history Cao Cao called the Duke in 213 AD.
Due to Lu Bu's changes, not only Liu Bei occupied Jing into Sichuan in advance, but Cao Cao also became the prince seven years ahead of schedule.
Then the news reported that Cao Cao was a big deal this time, and he definitely wanted a big fight.
In this way, Lu Bu had to invite a group of important ministers to the study to discuss matters.
Lu Bu pointed to the sand table and said, "From now on, no war will happen in our homeland. Otherwise, this will have a great impact on our economy and people's livelihood. Since Cao Cao intends to invade and merge, we can't wait passively, we have to take the initiative. ”
"What is the king's plan?" Chen Gong asked.
Lu Budao: "This king wants to defeat Cao Cao in a battle and unify the north!" ”
Everyone gasped and shook for Lu Bu's generosity.
Pang Tong frowned and said, "If our army attacks with all of us, it shouldn't be difficult to defeat Cao Cao." However, once our army fights with Cao Cao, I am afraid that Sun Quan and Liu Bei will take advantage of the situation. In addition, slaves in various places need a large number of soldiers and horses to take care of them, and there are not many soldiers and horses that our army can actually use. ”
Lu Bu bowed: "Not only is he worried about Sun Quan and Liu Bei, but this king is also worried about the Xiongnu." Therefore, the soldiers and horses that can be mobilized by the state are at most 50,000 or even less. And the soldiers and horses in Xuzhou were completely unable to move, so this battle was prepared by the king to personally command. ”
How could Pang Tong not be surprised: "The king wants to defeat Cao Cao's 300,000 army with 50,000 soldiers and horses?" ”
Lu Bu smiled slightly: "As long as Cao Cao is captured and Yecheng is breached, Cao Cao's 300,000 army will be broken without attack!" ”
Pang Tong's eyes lit up: "The king wants to be beheaded!" ”
Lu Bu didn't answer and asked: "How many people are there in our air force and special forces?" ”
"Eight hundred and seventy-three people in the Air Force, six hundred and fifty-two special forces in the Wolf Tooth, and the eighteen special forces in the original Wolf Tooth have been promoted to the Navy Seal Special Forces."
Lu Bu nodded: "The number of people is a little small, so in this way, recruit a group of reserve special forces to make up for three thousand people." This king wants to use these 3,000 men to break through Yecheng and completely control Cao Cao's political center. Then Cao Cao was captured, and the north could be decided in a battle. ”
Everyone was full of excitement.
Because they understood Lu Bu's military methods, and such a combat method was unprecedented.
Others can't do it, but they can do it.
Lu Bu continued: "Shiyuan, send 20,000 additional soldiers and horses to Guangling. Xuzhou is in charge of you, once you find that Sun Quan or Liu Bei has raised troops, you will directly advance forward, and you will not let their soldiers and horses enter our rule! ”
"Rest assured, the king will live up to his expectations!"
"Good!" Lu Bu praised: "The king assigned the task, and everyone immediately prepared war materials and organized the war personnel. ”
While Lu Bu was moving, Cao Cao was also making various preparations.
First of all, it is necessary to unite all parties to attack Lu Bu.
Lu Bu is so strong, everyone can see it, and they must not let Lu Bu continue to sit big.
Soon, Cao Cao's envoy arrived in Jiangdong.
The envoy said: "Wu Hou, as long as Lu Bu is defeated, all the coal needed by Jiangdong in the future will be supplied by Cao Gong, and the price will be reduced by thirty percent." In addition, Cao Gong intended to marry Wu Hou. Cao Pi, the second son of Cao Gong, is the dragon and phoenix among people, and his sister is a match made in heaven. As long as the two families achieve the good of Qin and Jin, Duke Cao will definitely tell His Majesty and confer the title of Wu Hou as the king of Wu. ”
When he said this, the audience shook.
The matter was so important that Sun Quan had no choice but to dismiss the envoy and convene his ministers to discuss.
Everyone was in a heavy mood and had all kinds of thoughts.
I have to say that this is indeed an opportunity to eliminate Lu Bu.
If Lu Bu is allowed to develop again, I am afraid that no one can be confident that he can defeat Lu Bu.
However, if Lu Bu can't be killed, I'm afraid that Jiangdong will not be able to resist Lu Bu's anger.
In the end, Lu Su said: "My lord, I think it's better not to act rashly." We can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, if Lu Buqiang is strong, then the soldiers will not move. If Lu Bu is weak, we will drive straight to Xuzhou. Nowadays there is a canal for water transport, and the march can be reached in a few days. ”
Saying this, all the ministers nodded.
"Yes, if you rush into the army, if you lose, you will be attacked by Lu Bu. My Jiangdong has become richer and richer, as long as I recuperate for a few more years, I will become a strong country! ”
"Yes, it's okay to befriend Cao Cao, but it's not the best policy to offend Lu Bu rashly."
"So-and-so has nothing to say, the lord asks so-and-so to start a war. Let a certain train the soldiers, and a certain will train the troops! ”
"Hahahaha!"
The ministers laughed.
In this way, Sun Quan once again received Cao Cao's envoy.
showed his intentions, that is, Cao Cao Qiang, and he sent troops. If Cao Cao loses, he will not offend Lu Bu for no reason.
As for marrying his sister, his sister-in-law has a violent temper, so forget it!
In this way, the envoy also understood Sun Quan's intentions, so he had to give up for the time being.
And in Bashu (CD).
What, jointly fight Lu Bu. Okay, I'll raise my hands and feet in favor. That, you two will fight first. When you start fighting, I will tell my second brother to send troops to Xuzhou immediately. The canal is so wide, and the troops are transported properly, so it is guaranteed that there is no problem.
Liu Bei's attitude was much better than Sun Quan's, and the envoy was also happy to go back to his life.
If he wants to start a war, Lu Bu is ready to strike first.
However, just as he was about to go on the expedition, Xuzhou was in civil strife.
The matter is very simple, one of Chen Gong's nephews committed a crime and was arrested by the Criminal Department. Although it is not allowed to die, it is to be imprisoned for several years.
Chen Gong asked Xu Shu to intercede and want to protect him, but what kind of temper did Xu Shu have, it would not work.
As a result, Chen Gong and Xu Shu immediately became enemies.
Not only the Chen Palace, but also the Chen family, refers to the Chen Deng family.
With Chen Deng being reused, the Chen family recovered again.
In this way, the Chen family is becoming more and more arrogant.
No, there are people who molest women from good families on the street, and then commit murder on the street.
Of course, Xu Shu will not tolerate such evil behavior.
At this moment, Xu Shu, Chen Gong and Chen Deng were at the same time.
Hearing this news, Lu Bu was not a big headache.
If he doesn't show up, I'm afraid things will be even worse.
Even, Lu Bu smelled of conspiracy.
When nothing happens, it happens at this juncture.
I'm afraid, there are people behind this who are pushing.
Combined with the recent recitals, Lu Bu is even more convinced of this.
Soon, with Lu Bu's order, all the ministers came.
Not only Xu Shu, Chen Gong, and Chen Deng, but also the rest of the ministers above the first grade, Lu Bu, all called.
However, Xu Shu and Chen Gong entered noisily.
