Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 78: News from Chang'an

For three consecutive days, Ma Teng's reinforcements did not come, and Jincheng's situation was already somewhat precarious.

In order to save some manpower, Zhao Ang asked Lu Bu for orders. All the craftsmen in the general were transferred to the mountains, and they made many stone catapults to throw stones towards the city.

It doesn't need to be too big, because the stone projectile itself is not heavy. Even if a stone the size of a pigeon egg falls from the sky and hits a person, it will cause a lot of damage. If a stone the size of a fist hits the head, even if you wear a helmet, you may not be able to survive.

Han Sui did not attack the mountain again. Their actions were clear to the people standing on the mountain. It would be impossible to go out of the city at night to snatch the high ground and destroy the rock machine. There are traps everywhere. Zhao Ang learned from Lu Bu during this time Han Sui's knowledge of array formation has been used, and it is impossible to defend against the secret post, which makes Han Sui quite a headache.

In the past three days, no more than a hundred people have been killed by stones and arrows, but the blow to morale is fatal. Such a large city is like a ghost town during the day, and the soldiers patrolling the city all tie their shields to their heads. Dare to come out.

"When will Ma Teng's reinforcements arrive!?" Cheng Yin was a little restless. If this went on like this, the soldiers in the city would have to surrender first without Lu Bu fighting.

"Lü Bu will definitely send someone to intercept him. Don't worry. Brother Shoucheng has the courage of a million men. Pang De and his son Ma Chao are also brave enough to win the three armies. They will definitely break out of the encirclement." Han Sui was extremely calm.

In fact, he was also anxious, but he couldn't show it. Anyone in Jincheng could mess up, but he was the only one who couldn't. If even he messed up, it would be really hopeless.

His current hope is not on Ma Chao. He is very clear that since Lu Bu dares to besiege the city like this, it will not be easy for the reinforcements from Yuzhong to come over, even if Ma Teng tries his best. Han Sui's real hope is pinned on Yan Xing. , He has been away with his troops for ten days, counting the distance, it is time to arrive in Longxi by now, it is not important whether Lv Bu's grain road can be cut off, as long as Yan Xing appears in Longxi is enough.

It is impossible for Lu Bu to conquer Jincheng regardless of the safety of the rear. Han Sui is very sure of this. Although Lu Bu is known as the number one in the world, he fights very safely. From the layout, it can be seen that Lu Bu uses troops step by step. advancing.

According to common sense, a military general like Lu Bu who is famous for his bravery and dashing should be impatient. Han Sui was ready to defend the city and meet Lu Bu's stormy attack. If Lu Bu really did that, Han Sui would be very happy, because Lu Bu Such an onslaught is doomed to be unable to last, and it will deplete Lu Bu's vigor and strength.

But Lu Bu's composure made Han Sui a little flustered. The violent Lu Bu is not scary, and the angry tiger is amazingly destructive, but it cannot escape the hunter's trap. The calm and calm Lu Bu is the most terrifying, but because of this, he He will take the overall situation into consideration, and he believes that as long as the news of Yan Xing comes, Lu Bu will definitely take action.

As for Ma Teng, it is enough to contain some of Lu Bu's troops. He was expected to fight back. Han Sui was not very confident at the beginning. After all, Lu Bu tried his best to separate the two families. How could Ma Teng come back easily?

...

Han Sui's prediction was correct, and the news of Yan Xing's attack on Longxi had already reached Lv Bu.

"Yan Xing, these hundreds of miles of raids have not been detected by our army's scouts, and they are somewhat capable." Seeing the news from Didao, Lu Bu frowned slightly, and handed the bamboo slips to Hua who was beside him. male.

Hua Xiong was injured by Ma Chao, although the injury was not serious, but two ribs were broken, and it was difficult to exert force, which was much harder to heal than Ma Chao's trauma that was torn from the tiger's mouth. Lu Bu originally wanted him to return to Longxi or Tianshui to sit in the township In the rear, it's just that Hua Xiong didn't want to stay here.

After reading it, he shook his head and smiled: "The general doesn't know, he probably brought a few people over there, and then contacted the Qiang people from all over the place to borrow troops. The Qiang people are dissatisfied, and Ma Teng and Han Sui have been running Xiliang for many years and have great prestige among the Qiang people, so it is too easy to recruit a Qiang army."

"My lord!" A young general said anxiously, "Angu and Xiangwu have been attacked one after another. If the city is breached, life will inevitably be ruined."

It was Wang Ling who was talking, not the Tianshui Wang family, but the Shouyang Wang family in Longxi. In Xiliang, it is not a big family. Win a promotion for the family.

Ability is also considered good, although it is not outstanding among this group of young people, but it is better than the kind that is comprehensive and capable of both civil and military skills.

As for why they are so anxious, Shouyang is also within the range of the enemy's harassment. The Wang family is not like other families. Although they have enough food and clothing, they don't have many guards. How many guards are the easiest targets for the enemy to loot, so how can he not be in a hurry?

"If it is not leveled as soon as possible, the grain road will be damaged." Hua Xiong hesitated, "The general is willing to lead the army to fight."

Lu Bu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Look at Daying for me."

"General, you want to do it yourself?" Hua Xiong looked at Lu Bu in astonishment.

"Rushing thousands of miles, who can defeat me here?" Lu Bu looked in the direction of Jincheng: "Then Han Sui has been unwilling to surrender and refuse to fight decisively. I am afraid that he is just waiting for this team to appear. There is only one way to retreat.”

The food road is threatened, so what if you don't retreat?

"Then if there is a chance to defeat the enemy, will the last general send troops to attack the city?" Hua Xiong asked.

"According to circumstances, but when I leave, you will be responsible for taking a look at the overall situation, and you must not be brave for a while. The commander-in-chief of the three armies and the general in front of the battle are two different things, do you understand?" Lu Bu got up and handed his general seal to Hua Xiong Let him take charge for a while.

Hua Xiong took over the general seal, and suddenly felt an inexplicable pressure.

"I will defeat the enemy as soon as possible and come back. If I can hold the camp for me, I will win." Lu Bu smiled as he looked at him.

Zhang Liao was intercepting Ma Teng, Hua Xiong was injured, running for thousands of miles would consume a lot of physical strength, Hua Xiong's condition was obviously not suitable, as for the accompanying young generals Zhao Ang and Wang Ling, although they were all capable, they were obviously not This kind of ability to run thousands of miles, but the rear must be cleaned up, the most suitable one here is Lu Bu.

Before Lu Bu was commander in chief, he rarely participated in battles, but for Lu Bu, it was much easier to be a general than to be a commander. To be a commander needs to coordinate the overall situation, considering all aspects, even the situation of the surrounding forces, and to be a general... As long as you have a clear goal and don't worry about other things, just hit it.

"Don't worry, general, the general will keep the camp intact, if Han Sui dares to come, the general will behead him with his own hands." Hua Xiong nodded.

Having said that, Lu Bu felt worried, looked around and said, "Yishan has a strategy, and he will discuss with Yishan more when things happen. Yishan, after I go, I will help General Hua."

"Here!" Yang Fu said with a bow.

After Lu Bu made the arrangements, he was relieved, and immediately ordered 700 Bingzhou cavalry, and with Wang Ling and Yin Feng as lieutenants, he quietly left the camp and headed straight for Longxi.

Seven hundred cavalry galloped along the ancient road day and night, and at dusk the next day, the group arrived at Didao.

Yin Feng arranged for the troops to rest, Wang Ling couldn't wait to inquire about the news, and Lu Bu called Di Daoling to ask about some recent events. There was no news about Xiliang, and the news about Chang'an City may have been known in January. In order to get the latest news as soon as possible, Lu Bu asked Jia Xu to send news about Chang'an to Gao Shun from time to time, and then Gao Shun sent people to Longxi.

But even so, after Lu Bu went to Jincheng, it took half a month just for the messenger to travel, so what Lu Bu saw now was also sent by Jia Xu half a month ago.

There was no big deal in Chang'an, but what attracted Jia Xu's attention was Niu Fu's defeat of Zhu Jun. To give gifts, I want to borrow some money from Lu Bu to give gifts.

Seeing this, Lu Bu didn't know whether to cry or laugh, he approved it himself, and the letter was sent back, I'm afraid it will be a month at the earliest, how can someone send a gift after a month?

But the city of Chang'an is as calm as water? This instead made Lu Bu wonder if something major was about to happen?

You must know that even when Lu Bu was still in Chang'an, the relationship between Dong Zhuo and the scholars was already in a state of incompatibility. Dong Zhuo's dissatisfaction has reached a peak.

At this time, it is calm? I'm afraid Jia Xu herself doesn't believe it, right?

Looking at the letter, Lu Bu fell silent. He seriously suspected that Jia Xu was being lazy, and he might even have written the letter long ago, and then asked someone to send out a letter every few days.

It wasn't until the end of the bamboo slips that Lu Bu saw some useful ones. Under Wang Yun's suggestion, because Li Jue and Guo Si had repeatedly made military exploits and Chang'an had a shortage of troops since Lu Bu left, Dong Zhuo asked Dong Zhuo to seal them. , Transferred back to Chang'an to serve.

This is not a big deal at first, Li Jue and Guo Si are also considered Dong Zhuo's confidant generals, if Dong Zhuo transferred them back, or if they asked for their orders to return to Chang'an, there would be no problem at all, but there was a king in the middle. Yun, there is a problem here.

good! very good!

Looking at the bamboo slips in front of him, Lu Bu saw Jia Xu's chubby face with a simple and honest smile, and suddenly had the urge to slap twice, and said nearly a thousand words of nonsense throughout, the most important thing But there are only a dozen words, and they are placed at the end. If I am less patient, I am afraid that I have already crushed the bamboo slips.

not angry~

Taking a deep breath, Lu Bu took out another bamboo slip, and his face softened a little. This is a family letter, written by Mrs. Yan, and there are a few naughty little handprints on it. Needless to say, it belongs to her daughter. Take a look at the family letter. Let's relieve Jia Xu's boredom...
