Chapter 76 Opportunity

At dusk, the village not far away was empty and there was no people. A little town called Yushi, which was robbed once before, and this was the second time. Originally, Lu Bu's primary goal was not here but Yuanling, but failed. Although he had not arrived at Yushi yet, looking at the wolf smokes burning in the distance, Lu Bu had already expected that the Yushi might be closed.

Sure enough, when the group came to the city of Yushi, looking at the closed doors, everyone's hearts were sinking. I can't remember how many times it failed. It seemed that overnight, all the cities around had a tacit understanding, beacon towers were everywhere outside the city, and when they saw Lu Bu, they set off wolf smoke.

No matter how fast the cavalry is, it is not as fast as the wolf smoke can deliver messages. Within a radius of 100 miles, Lu Bu has not intercepted food and grass for three consecutive days, and the morale of the entire team has become a little low.

"General, I will take people to kill all the ones who smoked the wolf!" Dian Wei was very irritable. He wanted to kill people now.

"It's useless." This time, without Lu Bu's explanation, Hua Xiong shook his head first and said, "But the matter of a few piles of firewood can be quickly built even if it is dismantled. As for killing people... there are countless people."

Who knows how many secret whistles are hidden among the green mountains and green waters to monitor them. Since they have discovered them, they will naturally not be waiting for death there. When they are killed, the people will run away long ago.

"What should I do now?" Dian Wei looked depressed. This feeling of being reasonable and having nowhere to do it is really disgusting.

Hua Xiong did not answer. He had already told Lu Bu what to do if he knew what to do.

"Return to Xingyang!" He looked at the Weishi in front of him deeply. If he wanted to fight, he could still defeat him, but the cavalry dismounted and attacked the city would definitely be damaged. Lu Bu was naturally reluctant to leave the elite cavalry on a meaningless small city.

Fortunately, he had plundered a lot of food and grass before, so Lu Bu didn't have to worry about food and grass for the time being.

Since you can't rob, then go back to the city to guard Xingyang. If you don't run back and forth every day, you should be fine for the first half of the year if you don't use these food and grass.

"Here!" Hua Xiong and Dian Wei's answers were a little weak.

It was already late at night when everyone rode their horses back to Xingyang.

I always felt that something was wrong, but what was wrong, and Lu Bu couldn't say for a moment. After letting the soldiers return to the camp, Lu Bu came to the city tower alone, looking at the dark world under the night, and seeing the city was pitch black, and it was difficult to see anything else. The night wind blew on Lu Bu, making the stuffy and angry feeling in his heart slowly, thinking about the current situation.

The coalition forces used this method to suppress their ability to continue to obtain food and supplies through robbery, which means that the coalition forces still want to fight? Why do they?

Since you cannot rob, it would be better to take your supplies directly to Hulao Pass to camp and completely cut off the supply of the coalition forces. With the terrain of Hulao Pass, although there are not many thousands of troops, you will definitely be able to block the coalition forces in the Chenggao City and trap the coalition forces to death.

"General." Gao Shun came to the city tower at some point and found Lu Bu's gift.

"What's the matter?" Lu Bu turned around, looked at Gao Shun, rubbed his somewhat stiff skin, and asked.

"The general is away these days and has not paid attention to the news here. The coalition forces seem to withdraw their troops in the past few days. They have been transferring a large number of supplies from Hulao Pass to Ao Cang. It seems that they are preparing to abandon Hulao." Gao Shun frowned.

"I want to withdraw at this time..." Lu Bu was sneering, but suddenly thought of something, and looked back at Gao Shun and said, "In this way, is there much less food and grass in Chenggao City?"

"As it is." Gao Shun nodded: "But... I always feel that this is inappropriate. How could the coalition forces withdraw their troops for no reason?"

"Now that the grain roads in Yanzhou, Xuzhou and Yuzhou have been cut off, and only one state of Jizhou will be left to provide food. If you were Han Fu, you wouldn't be willing to be willing. Tao Qian and others should be worried about the rear at this moment. How could they work together? It is not easy to delay until this time!" Lu Bu had a long judgment on this. A large army of 100,000 people ate and chewed by horses. Even if Jizhou is rich, so much food will be enough for anyone to feel sorry for. Han Fu is not a sage, so how could he let the princes ask for it?

Gao Shun nodded. Lu Bu was right. At this time, the alliance of princes should be full of internal troubles.

"Not later!" After walking back and forth for a while, Lu Bu gritted his teeth and made a decision: "Notify the soldiers of the three armies to set off overnight. Before tomorrow morning, we will rush to Hulao Pass to camp. I will trap this 100,000 troops in Hulao Pass!"

"Here!" Gao Shun bowed and agreed, setting up money to ring the bell to gather soldiers.

The soldiers who Lu Bu took out were running for a day and were about to rest, but suddenly gathered them together again. Naturally, they were dissatisfied. But when they heard that Lu Bu was going to block the thieves in Hulao Pass and annihilate the princes in one battle, they were immediately filled with blood. At that moment, the three armies of Xingyang City were dispatched overnight, taking all the food and horses in the city, running all the way to Hulao Pass, preparing to set the world in one battle, completely eradicate the dangers of these coalition forces, and they could also go back to receive rewards.

The group of people walked to Guoting like this. A cool breeze blew, causing Lu Bu's somewhat excited spirit to cool down slightly. He looked at the dark night and suddenly felt that this was a bit too smooth. The coalition forces would not think that such a big move could be hidden from them, right? They were not worried about being blocked by themselves at all?

"Huaxiong!" Lu Bu suddenly shouted.

"The last general is here!" Hua Xiong heard the voice, groped towards Lu Bu, and bowed to Lu Bu, saying, "What are the instructions of the general?"

"You bring two thousand iron cavalry to guard here, and you can make a plan." Lu Bu looked at Hua Xiong. The Guo Pavilion was only about thirty miles away from Chenggao. If you were really surprised, it would be possible to meet him here.

Although Lu Bu didn't think this was the enemy's plan, he was still very good to prepare.

"Why is this?" Hua Xiong frowned. This was a great achievement, so he naturally did not want to leave the team.

"I always feel that something is wrong. Leaving you here is also a way out for me." Lu Bu looked at Hua Xiong and said, "This is a military order!"

"Here!" Although Hua Xiong was dissatisfied, Lu Bu had already issued a military order, so he couldn't argue with Lu Bu anymore. He said goodbye to Lu Bu, leaving behind two thousand men and corresponding food and grass, and then stationed in Guoting.
