Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 83 Preemption

The speed and decisiveness of Cheng Yin and others' strikes were faster than Lu Bu imagined, but when you think about it carefully, there is nothing to delay or hesitate about such a matter. As long as you pass the hurdle in your heart, killing people is just a matter of one knife .

That night, Han Sui was still sleeping soundly, waiting for tomorrow's "desperate situation" with peace of mind, and then surrendered logically. However, he never dreamed that his lovely subordinates would rebel so thoroughly this time.

Dawn was approaching, and it was also the most sleepy time of the day. Several figures quietly entered Han Sui's room, covering Han Sui's mouth and nose with a big hand.

In any case, in this northwest area, Han Sui would have seen countless stormy people. Almost the moment his mouth and nose were covered, Han Sui woke up with a start, but he couldn't do anything. He grabbed his arm, and obviously more than one short knife pierced his body, blood silently gushed out from the wound accompanied by his round eyes, and the bloody breath spread throughout the room.

Han Sui's body struggled violently for a while, and finally died. He was also a hero in the northwest area, but in the end he ended up like this. Not only was he betrayed by his subordinates, but he was also stabbed to death on his couch by random knives. head off.

At dawn the next day, Cheng Gongying realized that the situation in the city was not right. When Cheng Yin and others had already opened the city gate to welcome Lu Bu into the city, they knew they were invincible and wanted to protect Han Sui to leave, only to realize that their lord had already been captured by those shameless people. harmed.

Although grieved and angry, Cheng Gongying did not blindly go desperately, but found a place to hide, and let Lv Bu recruit Han Sui's troops, preparing to wait for an opportunity to escape after the battle here, and then find another way out to avenge the Lord.

Having occupied Xiliang for more than ten years, when the big Han was not in chaos, Han Sui, who was not captured by famous generals such as Huangfusong, Zhu Jun, Dong Zhuo, and Sun Jian, was easily beheaded by Lu Bu in just one month. It's incredible.

It's already November, and the weather in the northwest is extremely cold. Although Han Sui was executed, Ma Teng hadn't been captured yet. When Lu Bu was stationed in Jincheng to cooperate with Zhang Liao to encircle and suppress Ma Teng, Ma Teng withdrew first. , This made Lu Bu, who wanted to take down the two giants of Xiliang in one fell swoop and completely control Xiliang, somewhat helpless.

"My lord, Ma Teng didn't retreat to Yuzhong, but crossed the river and retreated to the area around Shuyin and Yuwei." Zhang Liao bowed to Lu Bu.

Lu Bu spread out the map and compared it, his face was a little gloomy. These two places belong to the four counties in Hexi, and they are also places that must pass through the Silk Road. They are places that Lu Bu must control. If Ma Teng retreats here, if he is determined to follow If he goes against him and seals off this place, Lu Bu really has nothing to do with him.

"Wenyuan has worked hard these days." After reading the map, Lu Bu rubbed his temples. Zhang Liao used a group of Qiang soldiers without military discipline to block Ma Teng's army here and failed to rush to help Han Sui, so that Lu Bu had The energy wiped out Han Sui completely. Lu Bu didn't think Ma Teng was incapable, but Zhang Liao was extremely capable, and with a group of mobs, he was able to stop Ma Teng's elite for life.

However... to defeat Ma Teng, Zhang Liao still needs to contribute, but looking at Zhang Liao's appearance, Lu Bu felt a bit unspeakable for a while. He has not rested in the battle for several days. If he continues to fight fiercely, Lu Bu feels a bit tormented. , but without Zhang Liao, Lu Bu has no other talents who are more suitable to be alone. Hua Xiong is suitable as a general, and he is a vanguard general, but it is lack of flexibility to let him lead the army alone.

"Wen Yuan..." Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao, hesitant for the first time.

"My lord, this Yinyin is connected to the entrance of the Western Regions, and most people from the Western Regions come and go from here. If Ma Teng occupies this place as a boundary, he will hold the three counties of Dunhuang, Jiuquan, Zhangye and half of Wuwei in his own hands. , This place is not for his own gain, and the final return is to ask the lord for orders to lead his troops to seize this place and prevent Ma Teng from taking it." Seeing Lü Bu hesitate, Zhang Liao clasped his fists at Lv Bu and asked for his life.

"Wen Yuan is tired from fighting with that Ma Teng these days, why don't you take charge of the military affairs, and I will lead the army here to seize Wuyin!" Lu Bu sighed. Somewhat inhumane.

"My lord is the commander-in-chief of the three armies, how can I take risks alone?" Zhang Liao shook his head and said, "These Qiang soldiers have learned some orders after fighting these days, which can be used. Besides, in this northwest land, it is better for the Qiang people to fight. as appropriate."

The Qiang people have lived here for a long time and have long been accustomed to the climate here, but many Han troops who followed Lu Bu all the way showed obvious symptoms of dissatisfaction. This is also the reason why Lu Bu would not easily attack Han Sui when he faced Han Sui. It's not that I don't want to, but the army is affected by the climate in this place, and its combat strength is worrying. If it really fights, it may not be able to defeat it.

Lu Bu nodded when he heard the words, and no longer insisted. However, in addition to the Qiang soldiers led by Jiang Xu and Jiang Jiong, Lu Bu asked Song Xian and Cheng Lian to follow Zhang Liao, and brought the 700 Bingzhou cavalry with him. There are Xiliang fine cavalry available, Zhang Liao's side is different from the previous battles, and needs an elite team.

Even if they couldn't fight in the end, the cavalry had already gotten used to the climate here after following Lu Bu to fight, so it would be no problem to protect Zhang Liao and escape back.

After Zhang Liao thanked Lv Bu, he sent troops immediately without hesitation. Lai Wei could ignore it, but he had to seize Shuyin first before Ma Teng.

...

On the other side, after Ma Teng learned that Han Sui was defeated and Jincheng was broken, he decisively withdrew his troops and crossed the river to Shuyin.

"Father, why are we withdrawing our troops!?" On the way, Ma Chao looked at Ma Teng with dissatisfaction. It was obvious that Zhang Liao was only relying on a group of mobs to break up and reunite, and relying on unscrupulous means to keep the army from being defeated. It was about to open up the aisle and fight Lu Bu decisively, but who knew that they would retreat at this time? This made Ma Chao unacceptable.

"Lu Bu has already occupied Jincheng!" Ma Teng explained.

"So what?" Ma Chao was puzzled.

Ma Teng's anger followed Ma Chao's lifelong questions, and he came up at once. Sitting on the horse's back and waving his whip, he whipped at Ma Chao: "I told you to read more military books on weekdays, but you just didn't listen. Now that Lu Bu has broken Jincheng, all the elites under his command can come to deal with our army. Not to mention, with Jincheng, there is a foundation, and the follow-up food and grass can be continuously stocked here. Let alone whether he can defeat his elites, just It’s Jincheng, are you going to destroy it!?”

Ma Chao was whipped, but after listening to his father's scolding, he knew he had asked a stupid question, so he didn't dare to say any more, forced a laugh, and changed the subject, "Then where shall I go now?"

"Shunyin, this is the only way to go to the Western Regions. The Western Regions are also the basis for our Ma family and even the old Han Sui to survive in Xiliang. As long as we keep the Shuyin, we will be stuck at the throat of the Western Regions, and the wealth of the Western Regions will be endless. It has fallen into our hands, as long as Shuyin is here, we will still be the overlord of the Northwest!" Ma Teng said in a deep voice.

Don't look at Ma Chao beating and scolding on weekdays, but it is more of a feeling of hating iron but not steel, or Ma Teng is not very good at teaching children, he only shows his fatherly love by beating and scolding, but For this eldest son, even if Ma Chao is not the eldest son, Ma Teng still relies heavily on it. After all, in a place like Xiliang, the idea that the strong are respected is very important even in the hearts of Han people. It is not valued as much as the Central Plains.

Of course, if the Ma family wanted to develop in the Central Plains, Ma Chao's status as a concubine would be useless.

Ma Chao nodded if he had realized something, and the group fell into silence. Although they were busy on their way, it was not a day to get to Fuyin. Snatched the opportunity.

Zhang Liao, who knew he was already a step behind, hurried on his way after Lv Bu's order. Jiang Xu and Jiang Jiong led the Qiang people on their way normally, but Zhang Liao rushed with seven hundred elite horsemen. State, after Lu Bu won Jincheng, he specially assigned the seven white elite riders with one person and two riders, and Zhang Liao took the seven hundred elite riders all the way to rest on horseback. Here, Ma Teng rushed to Shuyin first.

Although the strategic significance of Yuyin is important, it is only a small pass city, and it has been in disrepair for a long time. The city wall made of rammed earth seems to collapse at any time.

Before they could react, dozens of guards were easily killed by Zhang Liao who suddenly came out, but looking at this dilapidated city, Zhang Liao felt a little troubled for a while. Such a city... how to guard it?

Song Xian got off his horse, kicked the city wall, and a large piece of rammed earth collapsed instantly, raising dust all over the sky, and several people coughed repeatedly.

Cheng Lian frowned and said, "How is this city guarded?"

Zhang Liao looked around, gritted his teeth and said, "Cheat him first, put up more banners, and make it look like the army is here!"

The city has been taken, but it doesn't look like it can be defended, but it must be defended. The only thing that can be thought of is to cheat the opponent first.

Song Xian and Cheng Lian could only nod their heads, and then ordered people to plant flags at the top of the city, preparing to face Ma Teng.

But before they were fully prepared, the sky was filled with dust in the distance, and a large army was rushing towards this side. Both Song Xian and Cheng Lian's expressions changed. With the current marching speed of the Qiang soldiers, even if they did not rest last night, it is impossible to go so fast Came here.

Zhang Liao stood at the top of the city, building a tent with his hands, looking into the distance, looking at the rushing army in the distance, his heart sank, but he soon cheered up, looked at Song Xian and Cheng Lian and said: "I am to you two Two hundred troops, build up the momentum of the city, and I will lead five hundred troops out of the city to fight."

"What's the difference between this and death!?" Song Xian and Cheng Lian were shocked when they heard the words, and quickly dissuaded them.

"Let's put him to death and then live again, it depends on whether Ma Teng has been scared!" Zhang Liao shook his head, 700 people must die if they stick to such a small town, he must find another way to support Jiang Xu and Jiang Jiong's troops Just come.
