Fan County.
After receiving the news from the spies, Lu Bu was overjoyed and immediately called the generals for discussion.
When everyone heard that Cao Mengde had withdrawn his troops, everyone was excited and asked for a fight.
"Please let the last general lead a team of soldiers and horses to chase the enemy. We will definitely beat them into hiding."
Hearing everyone's invitation to fight, Lu Bu nodded with satisfaction. Just as he was about to speak, Chen Gong suddenly said, "No."
Lu Bu frowned and said, "Gongtai, why not? Cao Mengde retreated when people were panicking. Our army went to pursue him. Isn't this the right time?"
Chen Gong shook his head, raised his hands and said, "Although Cao Mengde retreated, he was not repulsed, but retreated on his own initiative.
If you are repelled and just run for your life in a hurry, there will naturally be no threat.
However, Cao Mengde is now taking the initiative to withdraw his troops. If my prediction is correct, I will definitely arrange an ambush to break up the rear. If I am not careful, our army may be defeated.
Therefore, I believe that it is not easy to pursue at this time. The main thing is to stabilize Fan County's defense and guard against Cao Mengde's return for a sneak attack. "
Hearing this, Lu Bu felt the same way and nodded, "In that case, let's let Cao Mengde go for the time being and reorganize Fan County's defense."
…
After Cao Cao returned to Juancheng safely and ordered everyone to strengthen defense, he hid in his room alone, thinking about the changes during this period.
Yes, Cao Cao has already felt the changes in this.
He knew this period of history, and he also knew that according to the original trajectory, Lu Bu's occupation of Fan County would never happen.
He was now certain that everything had changed.
The question is, why?
Was it because of his initial change that the whole incident changed?
Or is there another reason?
What exactly is the powerful weapon used by Lu Bujun?
If Lu Bujun didn't have that kind of thing, even if it was Dingtao, it wouldn't be so easy to take it back.
Also, the news came from Dong'a that Lu Bu's army actually had a catapult, and something that was so powerful that it could explode?
Cao Cao frowned, and a thought suddenly came to his mind, and his heart suddenly lifted.
Could it be?
Is it that game?
It must be, because, in the game, someone once said a catapult.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao's face became even more ugly. If Lu Bu also entered the game, that means he also knew the process of history!
Of course, the advantage he had had was gone.
The most important thing is that Lu Bu actually got more than he did. He could get the catapult, but he could only get the super life potion.
As for the weapons and equipment in the game, even if they are brought to this world, they don’t seem to have much effect.
Cao Cao's brows furrowed even more tightly. He was wondering, how did Lu Bu get these things?
Since Lu Bu can get it, can he get it too?
Judging from the current situation, if you want to defeat Lu Bu, I'm afraid you can only rely on this game.
…
Fan County.
The nights at the beginning of the month are particularly dark. Although the weather is getting warmer, the wind at this time makes people feel cooler.
After several battles, Lu Bu's army could be said to have achieved a complete victory. Not only did they destroy the 30,000 Cao troops brought by Xia Houyuan, but they also occupied Fan County and Dong'a.
Of the three counties occupied by Cao Jun, so far, only Juancheng is still in Cao Jun's hands.
Now that Cao's army had withdrawn, Lu Bu ordered a banquet in the city for all the generals.
When everyone knew that Cao Cao had retreated, they were relieved. Everyone drank happily at the banquet, which was very lively.
The banquet was not over until late at night, and Lu Bu returned to his residence with a strong sense of drunkenness.
Before entering the room, Lu Bu specifically asked Zhang Hu and Li Gu to keep an eye on the door. No one was allowed to enter at will. After hearing their assurances, Lu Bu walked into the room.
Sitting on his knees in front of the table, Lu Bu took a deep breath and said, "Enter the game."
During this period of time, he has been in the wild, and there may be a fight at any time. Lu Bu did not dare to enter the game blindly, fearing that something would happen!
What will happen if someone breaks into the room and disturbs me due to something happening outside during the game?
no one knows!
The most important thing is that Lu Bu doesn't want to have any consequences if he tries. If he can no longer enter the game because of someone disturbing him, wouldn't it be a huge loss?
Also, if you are in the game and are disturbed by someone outside, if you can't exit, won't you have to hang up in the game?
Therefore, although Lu Bu wanted to enter the game, he did not dare to take the risk and held back forcefully.
Now that Cao Cao has retreated and Fan County's defenses are well prepared, Lu Bu finally decided to enter the game tonight.
His vision dimmed first, then lit up. By the time he could see the situation clearly, Lu Bu had arrived under the familiar yet unfamiliar tree of Novice Village.
Looking at the big trees around him and the players coming and going, Lu Bu felt very cordial and turned on the communication system, "Lonely salted fish, are you there?"
The lonely Xianyu can be regarded as Lu Bu's best friend in the game, so when something happens, of course he is the first one to think of him.
"Oh, boss, it's great that you're finally here. I miss you so much. Tell me where you are and I'll find you."
Listening to Lonely Xianyu's almost incoherent words, Lu Bu immediately opened the summons order, clicked on Lonely Xianyu's header, and said, "Move here."
The space in front of him shook slightly, and when it returned to normal, the fat face of the lonely Xianyu had appeared in front of Lu Bu.
"Boss, why haven't you come to the game for so long? Is there something going on in real life?"
After saying this, the lonely Xianyu immediately realized that his voice was a little loud and hurriedly covered his mouth.
Lu Bu pointed to a corner next to him, "Let's go over there and talk."
The two came to the corner, and the lonely Xianyu lowered his voice and asked, "Boss, is there something going on over there?"
Lu Bu nodded, "I have captured Fan County and Dong'a."
"What?"
Hearing this sentence, Lonely Xianyu was immediately surprised, "How is it possible? There is no such record in history?"
Lu Bu waved his hand, "I entered the game this time because I wanted to ask you, what should I do next to be the safest way?"
The lonely Xianyu was stunned for a long time, then scratched his head with a wry smile, "Boss, you also know that I am just an ordinary person. If history has not changed, I can still give you some advice, but now it has become like this, and I can't Hard to say."
Lu Bu nodded, "It has indeed changed, so I am even more unsure. What should I do next?"
The lonely Xianyu thought for a while, "Although I don't know what to do, I can give you two suggestions that will definitely be useful to you."
Lu Bu's eyes lit up and he asked with a smile, "What's your suggestion?"
Lonely Xianyu said slowly, "First, no matter how history changes, I feel that natural disasters and droughts will definitely come. Therefore, the issue of food is still very important. We must do our best to obtain more food."
Lu Bu nodded, "I'm doing this now, but there isn't much food in various places, and the price has been rising, so I'm afraid I won't be able to raise it."
Lonely Xianyu smiled bitterly and said, "Don't talk about the price now. When the famine breaks out, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it. What's more, the price of food will probably surprise you."
Lu Bu nodded, "What about the second suggestion?"
The lonely Xianyu looked solemn and said slowly, "This suggestion is more important, that is, you must restrain your subordinates and never bully the people. Otherwise, you will not be able to stand firmly in Yanzhou."
Lu Bu nodded, "I have also issued an order on this point. I believe that no one dares to disobey it."
The lonely Xianyu shook his head, "Boss, this is no small matter. He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world. Haven't you heard of this saying?"
This sentence came from Mencius, so Lu Bu naturally knew it, but after hearing this sentence, his expression couldn't help but change.
The lonely Xianyu continued, "The people are the most important, the country is the second most important, and the king is the least important. Just remember these things, it will be of great benefit to you without any harm."
Lu Bu coughed lightly, hesitated for a moment, and said slowly, "You mean you want me to win the world?"
The lonely Xianyu looked at Lu Bu doubtfully, "Boss, don't you want to?"
Lu Bu waved his hand awkwardly, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore."
From the time Lu Bu entered Chang'an, no matter what he did, he never thought of taking that position. Even after he occupied Xuzhou, he continued to send people to Xudu to ask the court to make him the Mu of Xuzhou.
It's a pity that even after waiting for the Baimenlou incident, he didn't wait until this letter to accept his fate.
The lonely Xianyu said slowly, "Boss, don't you understand that if you don't fight, you will only die."
Lu Bu's expression changed, and then he forced a smile and waved his hand, "No."
The lonely Xianyu snorted coldly, "If it doesn't happen, why is there a Baimen Tower?"
Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, with a trace of hesitation flashing in his eyes. After a while, he suddenly said, "Is there really no other way?"
This sentence is like asking a lonely salted fish, but also like mumbling to himself.
The lonely Xianyu smiled and said, "So, boss, you must restrain your subordinates and let the people support you and recognize you, so that they can support you.
If you can't do this, not only will you not be able to sit in that position, but you will not be able to stay in Yanzhou, and you will be driven away by Cao Cao. Are you willing to do this? "
Lu Bu felt a buzzing in his mind. After a long time, he sighed, "Let's not talk about this matter for now. Let's think about what to do next, right?"
The lonely Xianyu thought about it carefully and said with a smile, "Boss, if it is my personal suggestion, then I will simply say it.
Since Cao Cao only has one place left in Juancheng, there is nothing to fear. Just wipe him out and be done with it.
In addition, we must also beware of Yuan Shao. If he sends troops, he will be attacked from both sides and will be very disadvantageous. Therefore, if you want to eliminate Cao Cao, you must do it as soon as possible and never give him a chance to breathe. "
After hearing this, Lu Bu laughed and said, "Actually, that's what I mean too. If you want to fight, then let's fight hard."
The lonely Xianyu thought for a while, "Boss, in addition to defeating Cao Cao, you also need to find a way to recruit a few more generals to help you."
Lu Bu frowned, "I have several generals under my command. Isn't that enough?"
The lonely Xianyu shook his head, "Not enough. Think about it, who else can lead an army besides you? I think there is no one else besides Zhang Liao, right?"
"This?" Lu Bu was a little unhappy, "In addition to Zhang Liao, a certain subordinate also has Gao Shun, Hao Meng and other generals. Isn't it enough?"
The lonely Xianyu shook his head, "What I said about Zhang Liao being able to lead an army on his own is proven by history. As for the Gao Shun and Hao Meng you mentioned, although they have some abilities, they are far apart and cannot be considered famous generals. .”
Lu Bu frowned and asked, "Then tell me, who else can be called a famous general?"
Hearing Lu Bu's question, Lonely Xianyu couldn't help but froze, and said with a wry smile, "Let me think about it, who else is ownerless now?"
At this point, the lonely Xianyu stopped talking and began to frown and think about which other famous generals had not found the lord at this time.
Suddenly, the lonely Xianyu's eyes lit up, "Yes, do you know there is a person named Zhao Yun?"
Lu Bu shook his head, "I've never heard of him. Could he be considered a famous general?"
The lonely Xianyu shook his head, "I dare not say whether he is a famous general or not, because he has too few opportunities to lead troops alone and there is no actual proof."
Having said this, the lonely Xianyu turned to look at Lu Bu and asked with a smile, "Boss, since you are from there, do you know the ten most powerful generals?"
Lu Bu's eyes lit up, "Can you tell me?"
The lonely Xianyu coughed lightly and said slowly, "One Lu, two Zhao, three Dianwei, four passes, five horses, six Zhang Fei, seven yellows, eight summers, and nine Jiang Wei.
These people are the nine most powerful generals in the Three Kingdoms. Boss, you are truly the number one. "
Lu Bu thought silently in his mind, raised his head and looked at the lonely Xianyu, and asked tentatively, "Zhao who ranks second is the Zhao Yun you mentioned?"
The lonely Xianyu nodded, "Of course, Changshan Zhao Zilong is ranked second. No one is his opponent except you."
Lu Bu didn't believe it, "Since Zhao Zilong said it was so powerful, why has a certain family never heard of it?"
The lonely Xianyu slapped his thigh and said, "Oh, Zhao Zilong is still a cavalry commander under Gongsun Zan. However, Gongsun Zan is ignorant of people and has never reused Zhao Yun. Therefore, Zhao Yun left Gongsun Zan and later went to Liu Bei."
Having said this, the lonely Xianyu turned to look at Lu Bu and said with a smile, "Zhao Yun probably hasn't gone to Liu Bei yet. Boss, if you send someone to look for him, there should still be a chance.
If Zhao Yun is willing to help you, then if you two join forces, no one in the world can defeat you. Even if Guan Yu and Zhang Fei join forces again, they will only be defeated.
Moreover, in addition to his martial arts skills, Zhao Yun also has another advantage, that is, loyalty.
As long as he sincerely relies on you, you don't have to worry about him betraying you under any circumstances. This is the most talked about thing about him. "
Hearing Lonely Xianyu's explanation, Lu Bu couldn't help but feel excited and nodded, "Okay, after I leave the game, I will send someone to find Zhao Yun."
The lonely Xianyu said with a smile, "You only have a chance during this period of time. After this period of time, there will be no chance again."
