Chenggao, also known as Hulao Pass, is located on the bank of the river, backed by the river, connected to Songyue in the south, and the mountains and ridges are intertwined, making it a natural danger.

It was named because King Mu of Zhou was slaughtered here. The pass was established in the Qin Dynasty and the county was established in the Han Dynasty. For all generations, this place has been a place that must be fought for by military strategists, and it is said that one man should be the pass and ten thousand men cannot open it.

Lu Bu arrived at Hulao Pass last night and did not conduct any night attacks. Now the princes of Guandong have not approached, and Lu Bu has not figured out the enemy situation. Even if he ran away rashly, he was not ambushed by others like Hu Zhen last time, he would not be able to get anything.

Now, Lu Bu is a little less arrogant than before, but he is more calm and calm in dealing with major events without being chaotic. Li Su was somewhat uncomfortable when he saw Lu Bu at this time.

Early in the morning, Lu Bu took Gao Shun, Hua Xiong, Hu Zhen, Li Su and other generals guarding the pass to the city to inspect, but saw that the morning mist outside the pass was like silk and everything was bleak.

"According to the Malay newspaper, starting yesterday, a large number of coalition scouts appeared, forcing our army to retreat, and it seemed that the coalition was gathering here." Li Su saw Lu Bu silent outside the pass, walked up to him and said with a smile.

"When I came last night, I saw that the river water had thawed?" Lu Bu looked at Li Su. If he wanted to attack the enemy, he would have to bypass these coalition scouts, circumvent the river, and then attack from the rear of the coalition forces. The effect should be the best. Unfortunately, after the river water was thawed, it would be impossible to do this.

"Well, it has already started to thaw in the first lunar month." Li Su nodded.

"You have been in Chenggao for a long time, and you can tell how the coalition camps are distributed? How many soldiers and horses are there in each family?" Lu Bu continued to ask.

"This..." Facing Lu Bu at this time, Li Su started to sweat on his forehead. As the general of Chenggao, his task was to guard Chenggao. As for how the coalition forces were arranged, how to investigate the distribution of the coalition forces from the east and west of Xingyang?

Lu Bu frowned, but did not blame anything. He looked at Li Su: "I ordered all scouts to find out the city and find out the locations of each family. Now that the coalition forces are gathering here, they will inevitably be in chaos. Just change into the military uniforms of the family and be able to get away with it."

"Here." Li Su nodded. Now Lu Bu lost his arrogance, or restrained his arrogance, but that was the case. He exuded a pressure on his body that made people breathe a little uncomfortable, which made people feel involuntarily afraid, even Li Su, his former friend.

Seeing Li Su leave, the pressure on Lu Bu gradually dissipated. He...had intentionally. Since returning from the simulated world, for him, the previous incident has been memories of more than 60 years. When he recalled again, he would not say whether he was right or wrong in his investment in Dong Zhuo, but no matter how Ding Yuan treats him, Ding Yuan should not be killed by him. He could have been killed by Dong Zhuo after he defected to Dong Zhuo, but he should not die in his own hands.

Of course, Li Su was not blamed for this matter. After all, at that time, everyone was the one who persuaded him, but he was the one who made the decision in the end. Ding Yuan's affairs will become a stain on his life.

So, I know that I can't complain, but emotionally, he naturally hates Li Su, so in Li Su's opinion, Lu Bu's behavior is a bit unkind.

"Hua Xiong!" Lu Bu turned his head and looked at Hua Xiong beside him.

"The last one is here!" Hua Xiong stepped out and bowed.

"Eliminate the outside of the pass." Looking at the coalition scouts who were unscrupulously cruising outside the pass, Lu Bu said to Hua Xiong.

"Here!" Hua Xiong agreed and turned around and left.

After a while, the probing detectives outside the pass saw that the gate of Hulao Pass suddenly opened, and a Western Liang cavalry rushed out. The two probing detectives who were closest to the passer-up were shot into hedgehogs by crossbow arrows that broke through the air. The probing detectives around him dared not stay and dispersed in all directions. But soon, Hua Xiong sent someone back to report.

"General, General Hua found a large number of enemy troops approaching outside the pass, so he asked to lead his troops to fight." The soldiers sent back from Huaxiong bowed to Lu Bu.

Before this, Hua Xiong was always the captain of Hu Zhen's tent. Since the Battle of Yangren, he was promoted to General of the Central Army. However, Lu Bu won the Battle of Yangren and had nothing to do with Hua Xiong. So now Hua Xiong is eager to obtain military merits to consolidate his position as General of the Central Army. Lu Bu can understand this. He had a similar mentality when he killed Ding Yuan.

"Accurate!" Lu Bu looked outside the pass, thought for a moment and said, "Tell Hua Xiong that if you encounter a great enemy, don't show off and retreat first!"

"Here!" the soldier agreed, turned around and ran away quickly.

Looking at Li Su who was walking awkwardly, Lu Bu held the female wall and looked into the distance: "Send someone to continue to investigate, what is the front line, please report it at any time."

The coalition enemy troops all approached Chenggao quietly. As the general who had been garrisoning, Hua Xiong, who had come to support, first discovered the enemy's abnormal movements. This was somewhat embarrassing to say it out loud. Facing Lu Bu's gaze, Li Su couldn't raise his head, so he could only lower his head and agreed, and turned around to make arrangements quickly.

Not very useful!

Looking at the direction of Li Su leaving, Lu Bu shook his head secretly. The ability of other aspects is hard to say, but Li Su is definitely not a good general in leading the army and fighting.

But if you think about it carefully, it is actually the case for most generals. Lu Bu dealt with Hu people on the border for many years. The Hu people are best at taking advantage of the opportunity. If you are not careful, you can bypass it by the other party with extremely high maneuvers and then raid the rear. Therefore, Lu Bu attaches great importance to intelligence, but after coming to the Central Plains, it seems that most generals do not attach much importance to this. The opponent of the Xiliang Army is not the Hu people?

On the other hand, after Hua Xiong received the order from Lu Bu, he immediately decided to take advantage of the other party's unpreparedness to make a big fuss and give the coalition forces a warning...
