Chapter 45 Night Raid on Princes' Food and Grass

Chapter 45 Night Raid on Princes' Provisions

"General Lu, please."

Xu Rong had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but on the surface everything was calm. He only called Lu Bu "General" instead.

Seeing this, Lu Bu looked at Xu Rong and Li Jue, who was hesitant to speak, with a deep look.

Then, standing on the Hulao Pass, I looked at the almost endless camps of princes from a distance.

"It's really spectacular. There are at least 500,000 soldiers and horses, right?"

Lu Bu's eyes fell on Xu Rong and he said pointedly.

"General Lu Bu, although the rebels have many troops, as long as we fortify the city and wait, the rebels' troops will become the biggest burden!"

Xu Rong heard this and then said to Lu Bu.

"I wonder what General Xu Rong has planned?"

After Lu Bu took a look at the princes' camp, he asked Xu Rong.

"General Lu Bu, this is not the place to talk. Please move to the general's residence and discuss it in detail."

When Xu Rong heard this, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, and he made a gesture of invitation towards Lu Bu.

"good."

Lu Bu nodded slightly, and then led by Xu Rong, walked towards the General's Mansion at Hulao Pass.

At the same time, when Xu Rong and others were walking towards the general's mansion, the deputy general of the Xiliang Army showed a thoughtful look, but then did not move, but there was some suspicion in his heart.

Every Bronze Bird was carefully selected by Zhao Feng, and each one's intelligence was above 60. This is why it took five years to train so many people.

In addition to the complexity and difficulty of training, there is also the selection of personnel. Everyone is the best of the best.

Only with the power of a country can we cultivate a large number of elite intelligence soldiers like Tongque in a short period of time!

For example, the Jin Yiwei, Hei Bingtai, etc., each of them developed to their peak only after exhausting the power of a single country.

In the general's mansion, in a heavily guarded study, Xu Rong, Lu Bu and other senior generals sat down.

"General Xu Rong, please tell me your plan."

Lu Bu looked at Xu Rong, who looked calm, and smiled slightly.

"General Lu Bu, you have come at the right time this time. In the general's plan, General Lu Bu is the top priority of this plan!"

When Xu Rong said this, he showed a solemn expression.

"General Xu Rong, please just tell me."

When Lu Bu heard this, a strange light flashed in his eyes, then he looked at Xu Rong and said in a slightly solemn voice.

"Just like what we just gained, the rebel force is an advantage, but it is also a fatal flaw."

When Xu Rong said this, he glanced at everyone present. Among them, only Lu Bu's eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something.

As for Li Jue and others, they looked at Xu Rong with puzzled expressions, as if waiting for Xu Rong to explain in detail.

Seeing this scene, Xu Rong's eyes became even more fearful, but on the surface it was calm. After a slight pause, he continued:

"The army of half a million people consumes an astronomical amount of food and grass every day. The traitors and others have come all the way, so they must be ill-prepared when it comes to food and grass!"

"As long as General Lu Bu leads the army to attack the enemy's granary at night and burn it to the ground with a fire, the rebel coalition will be defeated without any attack!"

"Even in pursuit of victory, we can kill countless enemies and make great contributions to the great cause of the Prime Minister!"

After Xu Rong finished speaking, he looked at Lu Bu, waiting for Lu Bu's response.

The key to this plan lies with Lu Bu.

The army that attacked at night must be led by an important general, and Xu Rong, as the general of Hulao Pass, naturally could not leave Hulao Pass to implement this plan.

As for Li Jue, he does not have this ability.

In the end, only Lu Bu, who was famous among the Bingzhou cavalry, was the most qualified. Of course, this prerequisite was that Lu Bu agreed!

Lu Bu looked solemn as he listened to what Xu Rong said. He naturally understood the importance of food and grass. He had already thought of it when Xu Rong just mentioned it.

Now, after hearing Xu Rong's plan, even Lu Bu had to say that Xu Rong's plan was really bold!

The grain and fodder of the princes are naturally heavily guarded, and once the guards are alerted, it will not take long for a large army to come to support them.

Therefore, Lu Bu must defeat the defenders guarding the grain and grass before the army comes to support them, and then burn the grain and grass.

Otherwise, even the most powerful general Lu Bu would not be able to survive being surrounded by hundreds of thousands of troops.

After all, Lu Bu was destined to be unable to lead a large number of troops in this night attack, and the maximum number of troops could not exceed ten thousand people.

Even if the Bingzhou cavalry is brave and good at fighting, they will definitely die in the face of the endless army!

"Don't worry, General Lu Bu. At that time, I will act as General Lu Bu to attract the enemy's attention, so as to ensure that General Lu Bu can successfully attack the enemy's food and fodder at night!"

Xu Rong couldn't help but said when he saw the solemn look on Lu Bu's face.

"That's fine."

After Lu Bu hesitated for a moment, he finally agreed. Although it was a risk, he had a great chance of winning!

Moreover, the arrival of Lu Bu and others did not alarm the coalition of princes, at least, that is what Xu Rong and Lu Bu thought.

Especially this time's night attack plan would be beyond the expectations of the coalition of princes. With so many opportunities, Lu Bu agreed.

"Then General Lu Bu, go down and prepare. Tomorrow at midnight, it's time to take action!"

"Tomorrow, in order to attract the attention of the coalition of princes, I will let people fight with the coalition of princes."

Seeing this, Xu Rong's eyes flashed with light, and then he said to Lu Bu.

"So good!"

Lu Bu nodded slightly, and then left the study with Wei Xu.

In the study, Li Jue did not leave, but looked at Xu Rong and said, "General Xu Rong, Lu Bu has ulterior motives and must be on guard!"

"How about we let Lu Bu's night attack plan be quietly revealed to the princes and let them deal with Lu Bu?"

Li Jue was not a loser, and he was under house arrest by Lu Bu along the way. At this moment, he suddenly hatched a vicious plan and said.

"No, since the military advisor released Lu Bu, it means that the military advisor has already made a plan. This matter is not something we can interfere with."

Xu Rong's eyes showed excitement when he heard this, but then he shook his head and said.

"The general will know."

Hearing this, Li Jue's eyes flashed with reluctance, but he understood what Xu Rong meant.

When they came to Hulao Pass, Li Ru had secretly told Li Jue that Xu Rong's orders would be the main ones when he arrived at Hulao Pass. Even if Li Jue was unwilling to do so, he had to obey Xu Rong's orders.

Seeing this, Xu Rong nodded slightly and looked at the leaving figures of Lu Bu and others with a complicated expression.

"What on earth do you think, military advisor, can you really watch this tiger?"

Lu Bu returned to the cavalry station in Bingzhou, sat in the commander's tent, looked at the eight generals below, and said seriously: "At midnight tomorrow, there is an action."

"This time, I will personally lead the team, with Wen Yuan and Gao Shun as deputy generals, and lead 10,000 cavalry to attack the princes' granaries at midnight tomorrow night!"

"My lord, no!"

When Lu Bu's voice fell, Zhang Liao was the first to dissuade him.

"Wen Yuan, I have made up my mind, you just have to act."

Seeing this, Lu Bu shook his head slightly and said.

"Lord."

Zhang Liao heard this and stopped talking.
