Chapter 133 Xu Du sends troops
();
Zhang Liao asked: "I don't know what the lord said."
"I saw that some military families could not even wear shoes today. You are working for Xuzhou, but as the governor and general, I can't let your relatives wear shoes. I feel very guilty." Lu Bu said sincerely.
Some soldiers began to tear secretly. What Lu Bu said was true. Many people only wear straw sandals all year round, but good straw sandals are not cheap. They can be worn in winter and even save shoes in summer.
"I have prepared two pairs of shoes for each of you, five-foot flower cloth. I will give it to your family so that your family can also feel the care of our military camp." Lu Bu said, holding up the black thousand-layer cloth shoes.
The applause was thunderous, and the cheers were like waves.
Not only do you love soldiers, but also your family members care for them. In such a team, soldiers will definitely do their best.
Some soldiers also asked: "General, I have no family, what should I do?"
"If you have family members, you will be sent to your family. If you don't have family members, you will be sent to yourself. You can wear it yourself, give it to others, sell it, and deal with it yourself."
Zhang Liao almost laughed out loud when he saw that the shoes were indescribable, and the black cloth shoes had a hard sole. But the cloth was too fancy. The plaid cloth was very thin and it was a good material for summer clothes.
Hao Meng said: "I'll ask the lord for some floral cloth later, make Wen Yuan a dress of floral clothes, and go to the battlefield without fighting. He will scare Cao Cao away with a smile."
"roll."
Lu Bu looked back and saw what Zhang Liao and Hao Meng were talking about.
"Each of you two has a piece of floral cloth, and you make some summer clothes for your family."
"This cloth is too colorful." Zhang Liao said with a smile.
"This is called trend. It's very cool to wear, and it's so comfortable than armor."
The material of Yeliang is cold and smooth, but it does not absorb sweat.
Lu Bu continued to say the second thing: "There is another important thing to be announced. I mentioned it some time ago, and now it has been decided. Any veteran who has been in the army for three years and participated in three battles will be divided into one house for each person, and a new veteran village will be formed so that the veterans have a home."
It was too far away for these new recruits who had been in the army for more than three years, but the eight thousand veterans who followed Lu Bu were qualified.
Everyone was extremely excited. The house was not just a house, but also a home. With a house, marrying a wife and having children, this is a home.
These two good news made many soldiers unable to sleep all night.
Especially the second news, it is simply great, which means that as a soldier of three years, he can have a house and a home.
Wang Heng sighed in the logistics department: "Kill pigs, kill pigs. Where can I kill pigs? There are not many fat pigs, all of them are pigs."
The deputy said: "The lord will not give this order for no reason. I think there must be something wrong. I don't know who called me again."
"This is the reason. Tomorrow you go to the farm to choose a dozen pigs and dozens of sheep, and then get some goose and ducks. Let everyone eat well, but it won't hurt the farm's fundamentals."
"Okay, I'll go there early tomorrow morning."
The words are divided into two ends.
Besides, Xiahou Dun, led by more than 170 cavalrymen, finally arrived in Xudu seven days later.
Xiahou Dun was very hard-working. The road was bumpy and the wound was scabbed and recovered, but his left eye was gone, and he was a one-eyed dragon.
Before Xiahou Dun arrived, the reported soldier arrived first.
After listening to the report, Cao Cao became angry and threw the inkstone on the desk to the ground.
"Lu Bu's common man is too much to deceive others, and he dares to hurt my general."
Cheng Yu was persuading him, while Guo Jia pondered without saying a word.
Cao Cao personally went to the door to welcome Xiahou Dun.
"Yuan Rang, how is he feeling injured?" Cao Cao asked worriedly.
Xiahou Dun said: "Don't worry about Meng De, it's useless."
Only Xiahou Dun dared to call Cao Cao Meng De in Cao Cao.
"Yuan Rang goes down to recover from his injuries. I am anxious to send troops to Xuzhou to avenge you."
"Okay, then I'll go down and rest."
Xiahou Dun saved his life, but he had such a serious injury and could not completely recover in a few months. After all, he was seriously injured.
Cao Cao looked cold and said, "Call the generals to discuss matters and discuss the confrontation of Xuzhou."
Cao Cao finished speaking and left.
Cheng Yu stomped his feet in a hurry behind: "Where is the ability to send troops now?"
Two months ago, I just had a fight with Zhang Xiu. Zhang Xiu originally surrendered, but Cao Cao had an old problem again. He wanted Zhang Xiu's aunt. Zhang Xiu attacked him in the middle of the night and beat Dian Wei to death. Cao Cao survived by chance.
The treasury is empty and the people are poor. It is too unwise to send troops at this time. It is okay to win, but once you lose the battle, it will hurt your vitality.
Cheng Yu said: "Fengxiao, why don't you persuade your lord? It's not suitable to send troops at this time."
Guo Jia shook his head: "The lord is angry, and it is impossible to let him not send troops. The summer harvest has just passed, and there is still food. There is no problem supporting the battle of 10,000 or 20,000 people. What's more, it would be a great thing if it is really taken down by Xuzhou."
After a while, the three-way war drums in the army sounded, and Cao Cao discussed the matter in the army.
This show is much bigger than Lu Bu's, with more counselors and more military generals.
Staff members Guo Jia, Jia Xu, Xun Yu, Cheng Yu, etc., were all holding goose feather fans and fanning the air.
There are more military generals, Xiahou Yuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Yu Jin, Xu Huang, Xu Chu, etc.
Cao Cao slapped the table and said angrily: "He, Lu Bu, is a common man, who dares to hurt my general. He shot my brother seven or eight arrows and did not take us seriously at all."
Xiahou Yuan was the first to stand up and asked for battle and said, "Lord, give me ten thousand soldiers and horses, I'll bring up the dog head of Lu Bu's child."
Xu Chu said: "I am willing to lead my troops there. I only need eight thousand soldiers to take Xuzhou."
What the generals said was just a pissing word, and Cao Cao didn't take it seriously. If Lu Bu was so easy to deal with, he would have died long ago. The eighteen princes were killed by Lu Bu and didn't even dare to let anyone go.
As the chief strategist, Guo Jia must speak at this time, he is sick and has a pale face.
"Although Lu Bu is brave, the Xuzhou army has been newly formed. Although there are tens of thousands of people, only eight thousand old soldiers with combat effectiveness. If the people are properly employed, 20,000 people can go to Xuzhou."
Cao Cao said: "Okay, I will take 20,000 troops to go, Jia Xu and Xun Yu are military advisors. Xiahou Yuan brought 500 cavalry as vanguards, Cao Ren and Xu Chu are generals, and the other men and horses stayed in Xudu, and the troops will be sent to Xuzhou tomorrow morning."
Cao Cao still knew the importance of the matter, so he didn't build a three-way army. Xiahou Yuan was the vanguard, but at this time, Cao Cao didn't have many cavalry, and Xiahou Yuan had only 500 cavalry under him.
The army traveled very slowly, not to mention that it was hot weather, and the marching was only more than sixty miles a day.
