Chapter 1128: Castles are often breached from within
Lu Bu went fast and returned quickly.
When the news reached Hanzhong, Cao Cao was speechless, and his face was completely black. Originally, he planned to fatten Lu Bu first, and then designed Lu Bu to go to the front to kill Lu Yao, but as soon as he made some achievements, Lu Bu was about to be abolished.
Angry to angry, Cao Cao did not intend to give up Lu Bu's chess piece, so he ordered all localities to continue the previous strategy and quietly let Lu Bu redevelop.
Besides, Lu Bu withdrew to Yizhou, collected the routs and counted them, except for the nearly one million soldiers and horses of those players, only collected less than 100,000 horses, and the other bandits either took advantage of the chaos to run away, or they were unlucky to become the ghosts of the Southern Barbarians.
Only one-tenth of the tens of millions of troops remained, which made Lu Bu's face panic, and he remembered that he was ambitious to be the king of southern Xinjiang, but he was taught a lesson by others as soon as he got angry, and he fled back like a gray grandson, so embarrassed.
Where to go next, Lu Bu was at a loss.
Southern Xinjiang is not a good land, the waves can't get up, and Yizhou is afraid of Cao Cao, and it is not easy to make a move, the cruel reality shouted to him again: The world is so big, do you still have a place to stay?
While hesitating, Lu Bu thought of those players, although he looked down on them from the bottom of his heart, he also knew that now he could only rely on them.
"Wen Hou thinks too much, Cao Cao counts a ball, according to me, he will shoot when he should shoot." Some players immediately took a stand.
Lu Bu's face suddenly sank when he heard this, and he deeply doubted the intentions of this player. However, before he could speak, another player made a thoughtful statement.
"Wen Hou, there is nothing wrong with this. I think that when we went all the way south, the territory of other players could not be beaten, and all we could win was Cao Cao's territory. There is a saying among us players that persimmons have to be pinched softly. Now that I can't go to southern Xinjiang, if I don't take the opportunity to grab a piece of territory in Yizhou, do I still have to go to King Zhuya's territory? ”
Lu Bu was suffocated again when he heard this. What did Nima say...... It makes sense, Lao Tzu was speechless.
After passing through the incident in southern Xinjiang, he profoundly realized that without a base area, he would be overstretched in all kinds of ways. As these two players said, Southern Xinjiang is not easy to do, and the Central Plains is also in crisis, and only Yizhou is easy to do.
At this time, another player came out to prickly his heart: "Wenhou, now that our food and grass are about to run out, other problems can be put aside, we have to find food quickly." ”
Lu Bu's head was as big as numbness, and there was still a little ambition.
Other players also nodded their heads again and again, saying that everyone had no territory in the first place, just to fight for the future to run over, and the food and grass needed by the tens of millions of troops could still be guaranteed, but now if you don't find a place as soon as possible, everyone will run out of food.
"Wen Hou, anyway, I've turned against Cao Cao, why bother, let's fight."
"Cao Cao was able to take Yizhou, not because Wen Hou stabbed Liu Bei, and it is not an exaggeration to take half of Yizhou."
"There is territory, even if King Zhuya comes, he will not be afraid."
Players, you say everything I say, Lu Bu's heart is ready to move, especially the sentence that there is a territory, King Zhuya is not stunned when he comes, and he really talks about his heart.
Isn't his ultimate goal to destroy Lu Yao?
Lu Bu struggled for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly: "Cao Cao deceived me too much, he obtained this Yizhou, how can he not take it?" ”
"Wen Hou is wise."
The players praised in unison, coaxing Lu Bu's whole mind to understand, and there was no trace of obstacle in his heart. However, Lu Bu didn't notice that these players exchanged glances with each other without a trace.
The purpose was clear, and Lu Bu did not delay any longer, and immediately ordered the three armies to be deployed. In just three days, the three cities were connected, and there were hundreds of villages and towns under them.
Lu Bu saw that it was indeed easy to attack Cao Cao's territory, and his ambition was even greater, so he immediately waved his army to expand frantically without waiting to consolidate the three cities he had just occupied.
Five Cities
Ten Cities
Twenty cities
Lu Bu swept through the southern counties of Yizhou with an unstoppable attitude. However, while expanding frantically, he also behaved cautiously, controlling the front only in the south. In his opinion, Yizhou itself also has a share, the north belongs to you Cao Cao, and the south belongs to me, so it is reasonable.
Cao Cao, who was far away in Hanzhong, learned that Lu Bu had put on a posture of separating the southern part of Yizhou, and he looked confused on the spot. He wanted to secretly help Lu Bu redevelop, but he never thought that people had indeed developed rapidly, but what he could eat was his own, and he gave it by himself.
"Why did Wen Hou attack my Yizhou?"
Of course, Cao Cao didn't open the forest, and immediately sent a letter to Lu Bu to question, leaving room between words, suggesting that Lu Bu should not get an inch, and that it would be better to grab it like before.
Lu Bu is also not polite, now that he has been completely raised, his ambition has swelled rapidly, how can he be willing to give up the territory in his stomach, and replied on the spot to refute, saying that if he hadn't stabbed Liu Bei, how could you Cao Cao have a chance to take Yizhou? So Yizhou also has his share, and finally solemnly said that the south of Yizhou belongs to him, and the north will never covet it, and everyone will share Yizhou equally.
After receiving Lu Bu's reply, Cao Cao was furious, and there was an urge to wave his troops to clear Lu Bu on the spot.
"However, there is no news of the immortal chief."
Cao Cao sighed helplessly, his brows furrowed even tighter. Angry is angry, he is absolutely unwilling to fight with Lu Bu to decide who is the lord of Yizhou. I wanted to rely on Zuo Ci and deal with Lu Bu's problem through gentle means, but Zuo Ci was out of nowhere and didn't know where to go.
However, Cao Cao was reluctant to do anything, but Lu Bu no longer had those estimates, and he was unscrupulous and accelerated the pace of annexing the southern counties of Yizhou.
Cao Cao couldn't bear it anymore.
If Zuo Ci had appeared, Yizhou would have been divided, allowing Lu Bu to sit firmly in the southern counties. In contrast, although Lu Bu is a rough man, he is definitely more dominant than him in terms of popular opinion.
So Cao Cao was also ruthless, and immediately summoned the Xiahou brothers and ordered them to lead the army to recover the southern counties.
Messages can't be hidden.
When Lu Bu learned that Cao Cao had sent troops, he was immediately furious, and even angrily scolded Cao Cao for not following the rules in front of the players, vented fiercely, and then asked in frustration what to do now.
After all, Lu Yao is the current big trouble, and it is not good for both parties to fight with Cao Cao.
"Why should Wen Hou be scrupulous, if he fights, I will fight." Immediately, players came forward to take a stand.
Other players echoed, saying that Cao Cao was playing lanterns in the toilet, looking for death, the first fierce general in the world, how could he ever be afraid of people? Not to mention the Xiahoudun brothers, there is no pressure to fight ten at a time.
Lu Bu was enthusiastic when he heard this, and he impulsively said that if everyone helped me like this, he was still afraid of hair, so he would be scared. Cao Cao wants to come to make trouble, let's work together as brothers, and its profits will be broken.
So Lu Bu immediately ordered his troops and went to the front line.
……
At the same time, Lu Yao received a private message from Yue Baixing and smiled slightly. Just like Jia Xu predicted, when Lu Bu tasted the sweetness, he would be out of control.
Now the two of them are finally fighting.
But now is not the time to do it, let them fight for a while.
