Chapter 56: The First Battle

In contrast, Lu Bao is more inclined to the imperial examination, although there are various problems in the later stage of the imperial examination, but, relatively speaking, it can be more effective than the recruitment order to weaken the influence of the family, but it is obvious that it is not yet time, so Lu Bao does not dare to mess around.

"Right now, we're still very short of talent." Lu Bao shook his head and said.

"Speaking of which, we haven't had a new talent come over for a long time, and now it's just me and Bonghyo, and it's really a little too busy." Xi Zhicai said.

"That's right, now we do have a little less manpower." Lu Bao thought for a while and said.

"Lord, if we can promote the recruitment order, not to mention anything else, at least some poor talents in Yangzhou will definitely come over, and when the time comes, we can temporarily replenish some manpower, and at the same time, we are also making a preliminary preparation." Guo Jia said.

"Well, I also understand this, establish a good image now, and in the future, I can better attract talents, but ah, after all, I have a very ordinary background, and it is still very difficult to make a difference." Lu Bao shook his head and said.

"Now most of the talents have been enveloped by the family, which makes us feel a little dwarfed in doing things, and now we can only recruit more talents when we reach this routine." Xi Zhicai said.

"It is very difficult for the poor family to get ahead, either to meet a real master, or to take refuge in the family, and how many real masters are there now? If nothing else, let's just talk about these people who are very famous now, I'm afraid none of them will accept us from poor backgrounds. Guo Jia said helplessly.

"And the lord here is different, first of all, the lord himself was born in a poor family, although he has achieved the position of the state pastor at a young age, but he has always maintained a heart of love for the people, so this can also attract some cold men to come and run, but now people should be waiting, after all, the current situation is not very clear." Xi Zhicai picked up Guo Jia's words and said.

"Haha, I'm proud to hear you say that." Lu Bao said with a laugh.

"We are just telling the truth, the lord has advantages that others do not have, although he may be looked down upon by others, but he can win people's hearts for the lord." Guo Jia said very seriously.

"The matter of the recruitment order will be handed over to you, in addition, free up a place to set up a recruitment hall, no matter what kind of talent, you can go to the recruitment hall to apply." Lu Bao said.

"Understood!" Guo Jia Xizhi and the two glanced at each other and said.

The next day, Lu Bao saw the talent introduced by Guo Jia, but Lu Bao never thought that it was Xun Yu, an internal affairs talent, who came to him, and Lu Bao naturally would not be stingy with talents, although he did not directly give Xun Yu a high-ranking official, but he asked him to temporarily preside over Yangzhou government affairs, which was basically Lu Bao's deputy, which made Xun Yu grateful.

A month later, Lu Baoze personally set off with 20,000 soldiers and horses to support, but unlike the description in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, they each guarded a certain territory, and then encroached on Dong Zhuo's territory step by step to occupy it for themselves.

Again, this has a lot of similarities to the game, but now it's more confusing than the game.

Now Yuan Shao and Wang Kuangtun are in Hanoi, and Zhang Yang also leads thousands of people to take refuge; Zhang Miao, Liu Dai, Qiao Mao, Yuan Yi and Bao Xintun soldiers were sour dates, and Cao Cao belonged to Zhang Miao's army; Yuan Shu stationed troops in Luyang, and Sun Jian rushed from Changsha to join Yuan Shu; Kong Lingtun Bing Yingchuan; Han Fu stayed in Yecheng and gave the coalition army rations.

"Lord, it seems that Dong Zhuo doesn't look down on you, you see, he actually only sent a partial general to lead troops to fight against the lord." Guo Jia smiled and pointed to Dong Zhuo occupying a small city and said.

"Jun Yi (Zhang He), how have the siege engines and trebuchets been prepared in the past few years?" Lu Bao looked at Zhang He, who was following him, and said.

"Over the years, the troops have been equipped with a lot of siege vehicles and trebuchets, and this time we brought a hundred trebuchets and a hundred siege vehicles, but they were all disassembled and brought over, and they can be assembled before the siege to exert their true power." Zhang He said very confidently.

The siege vehicles and trebuchets were naturally modified and manufactured by Lu Bao, no way, who let Lu Bao experience more worlds, and every time he experiences a world, he naturally has to learn a lot of things.

"Very good, I ordered it to go down, this battle must show the majesty of our Yangzhou soldiers, let the world see, Yangzhou soldiers are also very fierce." Lu Bao nodded with satisfaction and said.

"Order!" Zhang He and Guan Yu said.

"Fengxiao, you will make a battle plan for this war, and then I will check it, if there is no problem, it will be carried out." Lu Bao said to Guo Jia.

"Well, don't attack just yet, set up camp, I guess they'll go out of the city tonight and sneak attack, and give them a little color when the time comes." Guo Jia pondered for a while and said.

"Do what Feng Xiao says." Lu Bao nodded and said.

Lu Bao really has no experience in arranging troops, although he is also very familiar with the art of war, but he has never applied it, nor has he studied it specifically, and he is still very self-aware of his own ability.

As the so-called art industry has specialization, such as arranging troops and leading troops to fight, these things should still be left to these professionals to do.

Guo Jia is a ghost talent in the end, although he is less than twenty years old, but his insight ability is unparalleled in the world, and Lu Bao himself admires it very much when he really arranges his troops.

And this battle ended with almost no suspense, a small city was pocketed by Lu Bao, although in the end it will definitely be too far away to take care of here, but it can also be sold for a good price.

Of course, Lu Bao will not give up here easily, after all, although it is far away, Yuzhou has always been at the junction with Yangzhou, although there are many territories in between, but as long as the operation is good, there will be no problem.

For ten days in a row, Lu Bao took three cities in a row, which shocked the Kwantung Coalition Army all of a sudden, and everyone didn't expect Lu Bao to play really, and he won three cities at once.

At the same time, Dong Zhuo was also shocked, he never thought that a guy from a poor family could actually defeat his guards, although those guards seemed to him to be only average, but he thought that he could kill Lu Bao at first, but he lost three cities in a row, how could this not shock Dong Zhuo?
