Chapter 17: Lü Wenhou

"Qiqi Wenhou, just now the spies came with an urgent report, the Son of Heaven drove the expedition in person, and he broke through Huangbai City yesterday and recovered Liangzhou."

It was precisely because Chen Gong received this news that he didn't bother to disturb Lu Bu's practice, and hurriedly came over to report.

As the chief strategist under Lu Bu's account, Chen Gong faintly smelled a sense of crisis from it.

The location of Xuzhou is too critical, the north-south thoroughfare, when there is chaos today, no matter which force wants to compete for the world, Xuzhou will definitely be included in the battleground.

"Recovering Liangzhou?" Lu Bu was shocked, "Didn't Li Dao's subordinates have 20,000 flying bear troops hoarded in Huangbai City?" How could it be so easily breached? ”

"It's only been a few years since I saw him, is Li Dao so useless?"

"If we want to break through Huangbai City, Cao Cao's elite will definitely come out, why haven't we received any news in advance?"

In Lu Bu's view, the destruction of Huangbai City and the recovery of Liangzhou must be Cao Cao's credit, and it has nothing to do with the Son of Heaven.

After all, Dong Zhuo was in charge of the government at the beginning, and Lu Bu's contact with the Son of Heaven was not short, and he knew better than anyone what kind of goods that waste Son of Heaven was a few catties and a few taels.

"According to the report of the spies, this battle was indeed personally recruited by the Son of Heaven, and he only led a total of 20,000 Qingzhou soldiers, and Cao Cao did not leave the capital."

Chen Gong's face was a little strange, "The reason why this battle can be won involves a key person. ”

"Who?"

"According to the Son of Heaven, this person's name is Flying General Li Guang! But no one knows its true origin and identity background. After Chen Gong paused, he continued,

"This Fei General has good magical powers, he can penetrate mountains and crack stones, kill Hu Che'er, the general of the defenders of Huangbai City, with one arrow, and another arrow, shoot down the city wall, the Flying Bear Army and Li Dao, and surrender on the spot."

"Oh? How powerful is it? Lu Bu's two sword eyebrows were deeply screwed together.

Xiliang Tieqi was originally Dong Zhuo's subordinate, and Lu Bu was Dong Zhuo's righteous son, so he naturally knew the strength of Xiliang Tieqi very well.

Hu Che'er's strength is not weak, his brute strength is even far above him, although his martial arts cultivation is slightly lower than him, but even Lu Bu, if he wants to kill Hu Che'er, I'm afraid it's not that simple.

At least, it can't be solved with one arrow.

Besides, this flying general can also collapse the city wall with one arrow, this is at least the cultivation of the Yuan Qi Realm!

Lu Bu's eyes flashed with a burst of essence.

Where did Liu Xie'er find such a person? Or is this person actually recruited by Cao Cao and deliberately placed under the Son of Heaven, so that in the name of the Son of Heaven, he could conquer the world?

"What does Brother Gongtai think about this?" After a long time, Lu Bu slowly spoke, his breathing still carrying a hint of heaviness.

"This time the Son of Heaven drove his own expedition, whether it was the original intention of the Son of Heaven or Cao Cao's instructions, it all revealed a signal, and the melee of the major princes in the world is probably about to start completely."

Chen Gong twisted his beard and groaned slightly, before he spoke, "Liangzhou is far away in the northwest, and it is the first to bear the brunt, which shows that this war was premeditated. ”

"Xuzhou has been a battleground for soldiers since ancient times, and I am afraid that it is about to follow in the footsteps of Liangzhou."

On the way here, he had already thought about the whole thing for a long time, and now he said his opinion in an orderly manner.

"But fortunately, Wen Hou has greatly improved his cultivation, and if the battle breaks out, it will increase his chances of victory."

The strength that Lu Bu showed just now opened Chen Gong's eyes, and his heart that had been hanging finally let go.

"The luck of the Han Dynasty has been exhausted, the royal family has long existed in name only, Qin has lost its deer, and the heroes of the world have chased it. Whether it is Liu Xie's child or Cao Thief's Agui, as long as he dares to offend my city, then don't blame the Fang Tian painting halberd in Ben Hou's hand for being ruthless! ”

Lu Bu said with a heavy pestle Fang Tian's halberd, which directly shattered the huge rock under his feet and scattered and rolled down.

In Liangzhou, Li Dao took off his robe and armor, handed over the seal and sword with both hands, and his face was full of gloom.

As soon as Huangbaicheng was broken, Liangzhou no longer had the power to resist and returned to the hands of the Han royal family.

"Your Majesty, the remaining garrisons in Liangzhou City have been counted, and there are still nearly 20,000 troops.

In the city of Liangzhou, after Li Guang led his troops to control the situation, he whispered to his ear for instructions.

Liu Xie looked into the distance, "Since Liangzhou has returned to the control of the Han Dynasty, all the people of Liangzhou are the people of my Han Dynasty, how can I kill my own people at will?" ”

"What the emperor said is very true, but these 20,000 horses are not ordinary people, but soldiers, once they take up arms, it is very likely that Liangzhou will fall into turmoil again." Li Guang's face was worried.

"I have also considered this." Liu Xie looked at Li Guang, "So, I have to trouble the general." ”

"Trouble...... What bother me? Li Guang was stunned.

"I want to hand over Liangzhou to the general, collect and reorganize all the original Xiliang iron cavalry, and train them into an iron cavalry loyal to the Han royal family."

"The Han royal family is now only an empty shell, and we must form an army of our own, so that I can free up my hands and do more things."

"Although Liangzhou is located in the northwest, it is a strategic place, and it borders the Xiongnu, and there are generals guarding Liangzhou, which can resist the disturbance of the Xiongnu outside, and can deter the rest of the states inside, and help the Han Dynasty to reorganize the old mountains and rivers."

Although Liu Xie was now extremely short of manpower, for the sake of long-term consideration, he had to transfer the few manpower as much as possible and let Li Guang garrison Liangzhou.

On the one hand, it is to stabilize the situation in the northwest and prevent the resurgence of the old forces in Liangzhou, and on the other hand, it is also to let Li Guang train an iron horse belonging to the royal family for himself.

The combat effectiveness of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry in all the armies of the Han Dynasty is definitely one of the best, and if Li Guangneng tames this army, it will definitely be a major benefit to the war behind.

Even if it can't be tamed, it can't be used by others.

Xiliang Tieqi is fierce and wild by nature, and only a fierce general like Li Guang can deter them.

As for the 20,000 old, weak, sick and disabled Qingzhou soldiers, let them take root in Liangzhou with Li Guang, anyway, if they take them back, they will also return to Cao Cao's men, it is better to let them continue to exert their residual heat in Liangzhou.

In addition to Di Xing, a group of Qingzhou soldiers all set up camp in Liangzhou and stayed.

Liu Xie is now short of manpower, and Di Xing is loyal to the royal family, so he took Di Xing with him, planning to take Xu Du with him, first incorporated into the Praetorian Guard of the Dragon Villa, and then make other plans when there is a need later.

What Liu Xie wants to do in this world is not only to reorganize the old rivers and mountains of the Han Dynasty, but to build a huge Han Empire and achieve great rejuvenation.
