Chapter 521: I am Lu Bu, you should have heard of it
Mayi, a post station.
"Cheng Lian still has a future?" Lu Bu calculated that there was not much food left in his hands. Cheng Lian was sent to borrow food from nearby tribes, and the army was also hidden around Mayi. Now the entire Mayi has been actually controlled by Lu Bu, otherwise
It is impossible for ten thousand soldiers and horses to hide their whereabouts.
The merchants who came and went were not allowed in or out by the Han people, but the Hu people buried them directly. He only had to hide them for five days, and even if these people disappeared, his family would not notice anything wrong for a while.
"I'll be back tonight at the latest. Didn't my brother explain it before?" Song Xian sat down and said with a smile.
Lu Bu had told him that no matter how much food he borrowed, he must return before tonight, otherwise it would be treated as if he had encountered an accident, and Lu Bu would immediately take contingency plans.
"You can never go wrong in everything by being well prepared and prepared. Tens of thousands of people are eating and drinking. This Xiliang army has just arrived. They can only fight with the wind. If the food and grass are cut off, there will be a mutiny!" Lu Bu shook his head, marching to fight, food and grass
It is a top priority. The supply of food and fodder for tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, without support from the rear, and when our own army is alone and deep, it is impossible to hold on for too long.
Especially now that Chen Gong and Guo Jia, who were given to him by Chu Nan, were not around, Lu Bu was afraid that he would not think carefully, so he made extremely careful arrangements for the Mayi area.
Song Xian nodded and said with a smile: "Since Ziyan made a simulated battlefield, brother has become a lot more careful. I and I have also been here in Mayi back then. Unexpectedly, after more than ten years, it is actually much more prosperous than before.
"
During the war in the Central Plains, a large number of people moved away from the Central Plains. Although most of them went to places like Jingzhou, Shuzhong, and Jiangdong, Bingzhou also received a group of immigrants. At the same time, the imperial court's control over the border areas also disappeared, resulting in more trade between Hu and Han.
As an important border town and a hub between the north and the south, Mayi naturally became an important supply place for merchants from Hu and Han.
When Lu Bu heard this, he couldn't help but think of the scenery of galloping outside the wall when he was young. At that time, he was not as careful as he is now. Lu Bu was an expert in art and was bold. Sometimes he would dare to wander outside the wall alone. At that time, he was not afraid of anything.
He is not afraid of the ground. Even if the Xiongnu Chanyu dares to block his way, he will dare to go up and chop two halberds.
"Zi Yan has some good words. This person has different mentality at different ages. In the past, you and I had no children, no home, no job, and could come and go as we pleased. Now that we have concerns in our hearts, it is not wise to act more cautiously.
Bad thing, I'm nearly fifty now, if I'm still as reckless as when I was a teenager, wouldn't my life have been in vain these years?" Lu Bu said with a chuckle.
Well……
Song Xian glanced at Lu Bu strangely. It didn't seem like he had been fighting Cao Cao for a long time. At that time, Lu Bu went deep into the enemy's house alone. Isn't your age span too abrupt?
But when he mentioned his family, Song Xian couldn't help but think of his own son. Although he had no ability, he was still of his own blood. He couldn't help but sigh. Now he and Lu Bu were no longer monarchs and ministers, but had returned to the days when they were brothers. Instead,
This made Lu Bu and the old brothers who followed Lu Bu feel much more comfortable.
"Isn't your new wife about to give birth?" Lu Bu glanced at Song Xian.
"Yes." A smile appeared on Song Xian's face and he nodded: "This time I have to let him go to school from a young age. He won't be like his elder brother who was played around and didn't know what he was until he died.
dead."
Lu Bu nodded and was about to say something when his ears twitched and he stood up.
"Brother?" Song Xian stood up.
"There is a large group of people coming this way, and it's not Cheng Lian." Lu Bu said with a frown.
After a while, a scout in charge of inspection was seen rushing towards him. When he arrived outside the post station, he met Lu Bu who was going out. He quickly knelt down on one knee and said to Lu Bu: "General, fifty miles away, a large number of Huns soldiers and horses have appeared.
, is coming this way, and should be thirty miles away at this time."
Thirty miles?
Lu Bu frowned slightly, not because of the opponent's speed, which was nothing to be proud of. What really surprised him was that it had only been three days, and he had an appointment with Chen Gong for five days.
"In three days, the public platform destroyed Jinyang City?" Lu Bu was a little surprised. There are Confucian scholars on the other side, who can transform public opinion into green energy to protect the city. That green energy is very troublesome, even if it is against Lu Bu.
I find it difficult, how did Chen Gong fail so quickly?
"Impossible, Jinyang City is a fortified city, and Xinbi is also a famous scholar in Yingchuan after all. He can change public opinion. It is not that easy just to deplete the green energy of protecting the city, let alone destroy the city!" Song Xian said directly
He shook his head and said, Chen Gong is powerful, and he is also a great Confucian, but great Confucianism cannot be unreasonable. There are not many fortified cities like Jinyang in the world. If it can be broken so easily, what is the point of fortified cities in the world?
"No matter what, the enemy has arrived." Lu Bu said, "Hurry up and gather your troops and prepare to defeat the enemy."
"Thirty miles away, at the speed of the Huns, they can arrive in a moment. These Guanzhong soldiers are not as well-trained as our army. They may not even be able to form a military formation in a quarter of an hour." Song Xian said with a bitter smile.
It's not that he is incompetent, but that these 10,000 surrendered troops are really not as easy to use as his own troops. Their own troops can often form formations quickly with just one order, and it doesn't even take a quarter of an hour. However, this group of surrendered troops is used to being disorganized. Although
There was also military discipline, but compared with today's regular army, it was more than a little behind.
"First summon my 800 soldiers, and I will build the formation. You quickly marshal your troops and stop them for me. No one can escape!" Lu Bu summoned his Fang Tianhua halberd and said in a deep voice.
"Brother, the opponent has many soldiers!" Song Xian swallowed. Just now, Lu Bu's strength was stable, but why did the enemy return to their old ways as soon as they arrived? Although there was no specific number, the scout said it was a large number, which was at least 10,000 and up, and 800 were dug into the formation.
At this moment, he felt that Lu Bu had not changed much from before, he was still as reckless.
"What's the matter? It's just a remnant of the Huns, but I need to lead a large army to win?" Lu Bu summoned Red Rabbit. After thinking about it, he asked someone to bring him a helmet and put it on him. He also asked someone to grab some dirt and rub it on Red Rabbit's body.
"Xilu~" Chitu snorted several times in dissatisfaction, but was comforted by Lu Bu.
"What are you..." Song Xian looked at Lu Bu in shock, not understanding why he was like this.
"If I go out dressed like this, the thieves may recognize me and dare not fight. Only by changing into ordinary armor can they have the courage to take action!" Lu Bu covered his golden crown with his helmet and put the helmet on
Once the belt is fastened, the original majestic and domineering image is instantly reduced by three points. It would be even more ordinary without the Fang Tian painted halberd.
But this is different from last time. There is no need to go to that point. He can naturally use ordinary weapons, but he is not as comfortable as Fang Tian's painted halberd.
Song Xian: "..."
The madness hasn’t changed, it’s just that it’s restrained. When it’s time to show off, it happens less and less, and it becomes even more sinister than before!
Song Xian had a new evaluation of Lu Bu.
Lu Bu put on new clothes, and his eight hundred soldiers were nearby. With just a command, they quickly gathered over and turned over on the ordinary red rabbit. Lu Bu looked at Song Xian: "Move quickly, if the Xiongnu
Shanyu is among them, don't let him go!"
"Here!" Song Xian nodded with complicated eyes, gave Lu Bu a fist, got on his horse, and hurried to assemble the Xiliang army in the city.
Lu Bu led 800 cavalry. As soon as the military formation was opened, they quickly ran towards the direction of the Huns army.
Over there, Hu Chuquan gathered his troops after leaving Jinyang, and then came all the way. They looted when there was no food on the way. They walked all the way to Yanmen, and saw that the enemy was not pursuing them, so they slowed down and continued to gather.
The tribesmen walked north and passed Mayi, which was their territory.
As for continuing to help Yuan Shao, that is impossible. He did not get any benefits from sending troops this time, but lost 30% of his troops. The casualties have already exceeded Huchuquan's expectations. He has done his best to Yuan Shao. If he had not worried about Yuan Shao
After cleaning himself up, he wanted to ask Yuan Shao for some compensation.
Just as they were about to arrive at Mayi, they saw a cavalry rushing towards them. Huchuquan, which had been captured twice by the Han army, was now frightened. As soon as the Han army appeared, he immediately became worried.
Be vigilant, and quickly stretched out his hand, ordering everyone under the tent to form a formation, and at the same time looked to the opposite side vigilantly.
The area in front of me was flat, not a suitable place for an ambush, and there were no signs of other soldiers and horses nearby, so I was slightly relieved.
Looking at the opponent's military formation, I was afraid that it was less than a thousand people, so I immediately relaxed my vigilance and signaled to a leader.
The man at the end understood, rode his horse forward, and shot an arrow at the opponent's formation.
The arrow was bounced off by the military formation, and the opponent's military formation also slowed down. The man at the end shouted: "This is the Xiongnu Chanyu's army. Who are you?"
The Xiongnu army was recruited by Yuan Shao. They could plunder the people appropriately, but if they encountered the Han army and attacked directly, it would be a slap in Yuan Shao's face. Although there were not many people on the other side, Huchuquan did not dare to attack randomly.
Xiongnu Chanyu?
Lu Bu raised his eyebrows. It turned out to be this group of people. He said loudly: "I am the guard general of Mayi. It is now a time of war. Please ask your Shanyu to come out and talk to me!"
"Presumptuous!" The man on the other end was furious and shouted: "Who are you? Are you worthy of meeting my Shanyu!?"
"I told you, Guardsman of Mayi, what kind of identity do you need to see your Shanyu!?" Lu Bu glared. The distance between the two parties was already very close. Even if Lu Bu did not directly suppress him with his momentum, the ferocious aura was still a bit intimidating.
.
"Chanyu, don't pay attention to him, we will go directly." The leader gritted his teeth and said, this Han general is too crazy, I really want to kill him directly.
"If the Mayi defenders block it, it will be difficult for our army to get through. Let's talk to him first!" Hu Chuquan shook his head. He just wanted to go back quickly now and didn't want to conflict with any Han troops again, let alone this one.
Still Yuan Shao's soldiers.
Immediately he rode out and looked at the other person up and down. He was ordinary, except for his tall stature. He frowned and said: "I am Shanyu, who are you? How come I haven't seen you before?"
"I am Lu Bu, you should have heard of me!" Lu Bu had already prepared his bow and arrow. After confirming that the opponent was Huchuquan, he straightened his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot out...
