Chapter 255 Rapid Advancement

Seeing that Huang Zhong was holding a black package around his waist, and he was still bleeding at this time, Lu Bu had no choice but to secretly say that he was unlucky, which thought of Zhang Chao's order, and immediately said to Huang Zhong: "General Huang, where is the military uniform factory in the city?" ”

"General, come with me." Huang Zhong knew that Lu Bu had other tasks, and he didn't dare to slack off after hearing the inquiry, so he agreed and led the way.

And half an hour later, a group of cavalry jumped out, and saw that the direction they were going was the land of Guangchang City.

After another half an hour, Zhang Chao entered Lingqiu City under the protection of 5,000 Zhang's army and nearly 30,000 soldiers of the 22nd Army. After that, the military order is issued, not to disturb the people, but to persuade the people to go to the annexed prefecture area, but if there is anyone who is unwilling to go, it is not possible to force Yunyun.

When Zhang Chao entered Jizhou, he had already issued a military order, that is, in the whole process, he must not disturb the people, nor rob the property in the hands of the people, but if there is a violation, no matter what position he has made, what kind of merit he has made, he will be engaged in military law.

Zhang Chao gave a strict order, and the soldiers below naturally did not dare to disobey it. In addition, from time to time, a company of 100 Zhangjiajun will appear on horseback as law enforcers, and these soldiers dare not test the law with their lives.

Because of this, although Lingqiu City was captured, except for the Yuan Shao soldiers here who were killed and captured, the people were all safe and sound, that is, early the next morning, some bold people went out to do small business, and no one disrespected them, which made the hearts of the people in the city settle down soon. There are even some people, under the propaganda of the soldiers, who have the idea of going to the state to take a look and settle down.

After only staying in Lingqiu City for a day, Zhang Chao left the city with the army and followed straight in the direction of Guangchang. And in the entire city, there was not a single soldier left to defend, that is to say, at this time, there was neither Yuan Shao's army nor Zhang Chao's army in Lingqiu City, and it completely became an empty city that was uncontrolled.

This is also a decision made by Zhang Chao before he traveled, that is, to eliminate Yuan Shao's living forces, and indeed to take the method of not occupying the city. In this way, we can better concentrate our forces to fight big battles and win battles without having to divide our troops.

For this reason, all Yuan Shao soldiers who were willing to surrender were immediately arranged into the Second Army Corps. And for those who refused to surrender, Zhang Chao would not let them go, but arranged for someone to send them towards Yanmen Pass. The roads in the state are being repaired everywhere, and it is when there is a shortage of coolies, with the participation of these people, I believe that the road work of Chengchengtong will be completed sooner.

It can be said that this time Zhang Chao is acting completely in accordance with the methods of future generations of successful people. Regardless of the gains and losses of one city or one place, the main thing is to destroy the enemy's living forces. In this way, people and land are saved, and people and land are saved; The real use of the loss of people and the loss of people and land.

Except for some grain, grass and baggage in the government, Zhang Chao did not touch a penny of the people's money, which made him capture Lingqiu City without attracting the resentment of the people. Of course, it is precisely because of his unruly love that the army he leads is progressing extremely fast.

And faster than Zhang Chao is Lu Bu's vanguard army.

On the night he entered Lingqiu City, Lu Bu entered the quartermaster factory and took away all the clothes of Yuan Shao's soldiers there, and then changed them for his cavalry, and then went straight to Guangchang.

Poor Guangchang's soldiers, first, did not receive the warning signal, and second, after seeing their own people's clothing, they easily opened the city gate, and then the city gate was occupied, and the general defending the city was captured, and from beginning to end, there were no more than a hundred dead.

After occupying Guangchang, LΓΌ Bu only left a regiment of 2,000 men to defend the city, waiting for the lord Zhang Chao to come and take over, and then he took the other 48,000 cavalry and ran to Changshan Pass and Tang County.

Lu Bu led the cavalry of the vanguard army at an extremely fast speed, and he was always on the road except for three hours of rest every day, so that when he suddenly appeared in Tang County with his army, the soldiers defending the city there surrendered the city with only a little resistance, except for being surprised.

After occupying Tang County, Lu Bu supplemented the grain and grass here, which went straight to Zhongshan County.

Qu Yi in Dingxian didn't know it at all, so he was reported to be outside the city and suddenly saw a large number of cavalry dressed in his own clothes.

In this regard, Qu Yi was very surprised. The cavalry actually came from the northwest, and if it was an army sent by the lord, it should have come from the south. With a hint of doubt, he took his soldiers out of the mansion and wanted to find out.

At this time, the vanguard of the army led by Lu Bu had entered the city, and was welcomed by the soldiers defending the city.

The army did not completely enter the city, so Lu Bu did not give the order to attack, but entered the city like this, and saw Qu Yi who came to inspect the situation from a distance.

"Which general is ahead, report your name." Qu Yi was far away from the street, and sure enough, he saw cavalry wearing his own clothes entering the city (i.e., light green). Note: In order to distinguish the differences between the armies, Zhang Chaojun's soldiers' clothing is black, Cao Cao's army is earthy gray, Liu Bei's is earthy yellow, Sun Jian's is brick red, and Yuan Shao's is light green.

Seeing that the other party was indeed wearing light green clothes, Qu Yi felt a lot more relieved, but out of caution, he still asked like this.

Lu Bu was also calm, perhaps he had thought that someone would ask, so after hearing the other party's question, he really said unhurriedly: "Who are you?" ”

At this moment, the distance between the two sides was less than thirty steps, and when they could almost see each other's appearances, they heard Qu Yi say in an extremely proud voice: "I am Qu Yi, the Zhongshan County Guard personally sealed by the general of Zhengbei, who are you?" ”

As soon as he heard that the person who came turned out to be Qu Yi, Lu Bu couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart. In Lingqiu City before, Qu Xiang was killed by Huang Zhong, so that he did not make a great achievement, and now he finally met his brother Qu Yi, this time he can't miss the opportunity no matter what.

Lu Bu knew that he had appeared when the princes of the Seventeenth Road were discussing Dong, maybe Qu Yi could recognize him, so he deliberately lowered his head, and then slowly rode forward on the red rabbit horse step by step.

The other party's general did not answer, but began to approach him step by step, which aroused Qu Yi's vigilance.

How to say that he is also a person who has followed Yuan Shao in a hundred battles, and this vigilance is still there. Seeing that the other party's general was approaching step by step on horseback, he said, "Whoever is coming, tell me by name." ”

Qu Yi's words were shouted, but Lu Bu still didn't answer, but the war horse under his crotch drove away faster.

"Whoever comes, report the name." Qu Yiji had a sense of danger, and as he spoke, he also clenched the big knife in his hand.

At this time, the distance between the two sides was less than fifteen steps, and under this distance, Lu Bu had already had the possibility of winning, and immediately he was not hiding, but raised his head, and suddenly asked, "Qu Yi, do you recognize me?" ”

Lu Bu raised his head sharply and asked again, which immediately made Qu Yi stunned.

To say that he had indeed seen Lu Bu, but the distance between time and time was already very long. When I looked at it suddenly, I just felt that this person was a little familiar, but I just couldn't name it. "You... You are..."

Qu Yi hadn't recognized it yet, and Lu Bu had already reported his name and said: "I'm Lu Bu, Qu Yi, don't you want to send your head up?" As he spoke, the Fang Tian Painting Halberd in his hand also swung out.

As soon as Lu Bu's name came out, Qu Yi finally remembered the identity of this person, and immediately said: "Ah! It turned out to be Lu Bu, aren't you a general under Zhang Chao? ”

When he said this, Qu Yi had already figured out something, and at this time, Fang Tian's halberd was also waved.

What a Qu Yi, worthy of being Yuan Shao's favorite general, seeing that the situation was critical, he reacted quickly, and grabbed a personal soldier next to him as soon as he stretched out his hand, and then with a strong hand, he actually lifted him up and blocked him in front of him.

It was also this block that made the target of Fang Tian's halberd suddenly become this pro-soldier, and the halberd was pierced on the corpse of the pro-soldier.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qu Yi let go of his hand and threw his own soldiers out, and then clenched the big knife with both hands and slashed at Lu Bu's body.

Qu Yi has been martial arts since childhood, but he still has some means. As soon as this big knife came out, it was also a tiger and a tiger, and it looked like a formation.

At this time, Lu Bu was throwing aside the personal soldier in the halberd, and he watched a sharp big knife slash towards his body. In a hurry, he leaned down and pressed his body against the red rabbit horse, which was able to dodge the fatal blow.

Under the blow, the big knife passed against Lu Bu's scalp, and Qu Yi, who didn't succeed, thought of a second knife, but Lu Bu wouldn't give him a chance. The halberd in his hand stretched out and stabbed forward.

Feeling the severity of this blow, if you can't dodge it, it is likely to end up dead, and immediately Qu Yi is knife back and blocked, and a halberd and a knife formed a violent impact in mid-air.

Under the collision between the halberd and the knife, Qu Yi felt his arms tingle, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, what a lot of strength. At the same time, he took advantage of the situation to retreat and beat the horse away.

knew Lu Bu's martial arts, and Qu Yi knew that he couldn't beat him. This is where the idea of running away begins.

Qu Yi hit his horse and fled, and at the same time said to the soldiers who came with him, "Quick, stop him for me." ”

Dozens of pro-soldiers heard the general's order, and they were ready to fight one by one, but Lu Bu, who came with at this time, really shouted, "Why didn't you see the pro-soldiers go down just now?" Your master does not treat you as human beings in the slightest, so what will you sell your life for him? ”

This drink made the dozens of pro-soldiers who were originally about to move stand in place. Yes, they did see the scene of Qu Yi taking the back halberd just now. Seeing that the master didn't treat them as human beings, they were all angry in their hearts.
