In the school yard of Shouchun City, the soldiers were busy preparing for the expedition. They were carrying weapons and armor, counting grain and baggage, and confirming the list of sergeants. It was in full swing.

Gao Shun had no intention of helping. He leaned on a wooden stake in the school yard, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, with a thoughtful look on his face.

In fact, with his status, he does not need to do these things.

If morale is low, generals will get involved to tell the sergeants that I am with you.

Right now, it's obviously not needed.

Not far away, Zhang Liao and Wei Yue walked side by side towards Gaoshun.

"Boping, what are you doing here?"

Gao Shun glanced at the two of them and said in a low voice: "I was just checking the food and baggage with Yunwen. He went back. I'll stay and take a look."

"You can't tell that this guy is young and mature, and he also knows not to take advantage of others."

Zhang Liao felt honored to be called uncle by Lin Mo, and then asked curiously: "I just passed by the baggage camp and saw a lot of cloth bags piled outside. What are they used for?"

Gao Shun shook his head, "I don't know, Yunwen asked me to take care of him."

Lin Mo is the chief secretary and is responsible for the army's logistics. Gao Shun doesn't care about these matters.

The main reason why I wanted to go with him for the test was that he was still unfamiliar with him. Now everyone in the military camp knew that Lu Bu had a genius son-in-law, but no one had seen it, so he still needed to clear the way.

Zhang Liao didn't care and said instead: "That's it. Marquis Wen asked me to stay behind during this expedition. Naturally, I can't kill the enemy with you. I always have to say goodbye to my brothers before leaving. Come to the Hongxiang Pavilion in the east of the city.

We have recruited a new batch of singers. Let’s go and have some fun today. Shall we go?”

At the end of the day, don’t forget to remind me, “There’s no telling how long this battle will last.”

Gao Shun's face did not show the slightest excitement that a man should have. He still raised his head and looked into the distance. After sighing, he asked: "Wenyuan, what do you think we should do in this life so that we don't regret it?"

"I don't know." Zhang Liao was a little confused.

"I think one should look up to Heaven and not bow down to others." Gao Shun looked very deep, quite like discussing Neo-Confucianism.

Zhang Liao frowned and pulled Wei Yue away.

"What's wrong? Isn't he going?" Wei Yue was still looking back frequently. When going to a place like this, the more people there are, the more lively it becomes.

"He has been there."

"How do you know?"

"Didn't you see how calm he was?"

Wei Yue thought about it and thought it made sense. Then he spat and went without us. I won't call him next time.

The army finally set off south to Lujiang River.

Zhang Liao did not go and stayed behind in Shouchun, along with Wei Xu and Cheng Lian.

Lin Mo agrees with this.

Putting aside his personal relationship with Lu Bu, there is no one in the entire military camp who is more suitable than Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao is handsome and capable of taking charge of his own business. If there is an emergency in Shouchun, he needs someone who can make decisions, is calm and has enough prestige. Only he can do the job.

Of course, Chen Deng and Chen Gong were also left to him for safety reasons.

After all, Shouchun is Lu Bu's back now, so nothing can go wrong.

Xu Sheng was incorporated into the centurion of Zhang Liao's tribe, and theoretically he had to stay behind. However, at Lin Mo's suggestion, Lu Bu still gave him a chance to practice in actual combat and followed the army southward.

There are two possible roads from Shouchun to the Lujiang River. One is to go west through Yangquan and go to Bo County, and the other is to go straight to Hefei and then turn to Wan County.

Judging from the distance, they are almost the same. Lu Bu decided to take the Yangquan Post Road, and Lu Su agreed, but Lin Mo suggested taking Hefei.

The difference between the two roads is that taking the Yangquan Post Road is always smooth, while taking Hefei to Wan County can only go south along the Wan River.

The main force this time is the cavalry. If the cavalry wants to exert its power, it naturally pursues galloping in the wilderness. Going to Hefei will cause it to walk along the river bank, which will be very hindered for the cavalry's movement.

Lin Mo had only one reason. By walking to Hefei and close to Chaohu Lake, he could monitor the movements of Zheng Bao's group of bandits and avoid being surrounded.

It was a far-fetched reason, but Lu Bu thought that this was Lin Mo's first battle after all, so let him make the decision.

Furthermore, since he personally leads the strongest cavalry, there shouldn't be any big problems, so he just lets him go.

......

On the other side of Anhui County, Liu Xun, who was wearing a black prefecture uniform with wide sleeves and a waistband, was a little panicked when he first heard that Lu Bu was going to attack him, because General Zuo, who had just taken Jiujiang, was so prestigious.

I even discussed with Liu Ye whether to bribe Zheng Bao and others to help support the situation.

But when I found out that Lu Bu only had 10,000 people, I instantly felt confident.

Lu Bu is very strong, but no one would ever think that he is invincible. This can be proved by the countless generals who died under his halberd.

Perhaps they all have the mentality that as long as they kill Lu Bu, they will become famous in one battle, but the reason is that these people all firmly believe in one idea, one of the three major illusions in life: I am different from them.

Those who lost to Lu Bu are scum, and I am different from them.

Therefore, one after another people fell under Lu Bu's halberd.

Liu Xun had this sign in front of him, and was preparing to lead the 20,000 troops in the city to march north to meet the enemy. What he had to do was not only to prevent Lu Bu from attacking the city, but also from plundering the land.

"Your Majesty, Lu Bu is coming with great force, and he has many soldiers and horses who are good at fighting. We should avoid his sharp edge."

Liu Ye, wearing a Confucian crown and washed white Confucian robe, advised: "Now you may send someone to inform Duke Cao that Lu Bu will leave Shouchun and take the opportunity to go south; or you may report the matter to Yuan Gongliu, and he

He regards Lu Bu as his sworn enemy and will not miss this opportunity. The prince only needs to guard the city gate."

Liu Ye and Liu Xun both have the surname Liu, but Liu Xun came from a powerful family, while Liu Ye was descended from the empress of the Han Dynasty.

Different from the water-injected pork of Liu Bei's descendants from the Han Dynasty, Liu Ye's brand is truly from the same lineage. His ancestor is Liu Xiu, the great magician and the son of the plane.

Perhaps because of this status, he was in an awkward situation after he went to Cao Ying. Boss Cao would always consider the suggestions he gave and could not trust Xun You and the others.

After Cao Pi came to power, his situation became even more difficult. During the Battle of Yiling, he advocated using all the strength of the country to attack Soochow. If Cao Pi followed this, the Three Kingdoms would probably write the final chapter here.

It's a pity that Cao Laoer always felt that the Liu family had bad intentions, so he missed the opportunity to pacify Jiangdong.

It seems that apart from improving the catapult in the Battle of Guandu, Liu Ye didn't make much achievements.

"There are so many thieves, if I avoid them without fighting, I'm afraid even Zheng Bao, Zhang Duo and those gangsters will look down upon me!"

Liu Xun frowned coldly, dismissing Liu Ye's vigilance, "Whether Lu Bu can fight or not will only be known after the fight."

Liu Xun's inner monologue is: I am different from them.

"What's more, Lu Bu took the road from Hefei and went down the Wan River. The movement of the cavalry was blocked. How could he be undefeated if he violated this taboo of military strategists?"

"Master Fu..."

"No need to say more!" Liu Xun immediately waved his hand and rejected Liu Ye's advice.

Isn’t he just Lu Bu? Deal with him!

The refugees from the frontier ran wild in the Central Plains, and if you didn't give them any color, they didn't even know that besides giant turtles, there were also dragons in the water.
