The two brothers Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were discussing, but what they didn't know was that the 'Second Young Master' they called them was rushing over.
What they didn't even know was that the target of their march, Lu Bu, was rushing back to Xiapi.
After passing Lanling, Xiapi was already in sight. Lu Bu was riding a red rabbit, his face was full of hatred, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.
Failure to capture Langya County means losing the opportunity to capture the entire Xuzhou. For Lu Bu, this huge advantage turned into a disadvantage.
Cheng Lian followed Lu Bu and said in a deep voice: "My lord, although I failed to capture Langya County, most of Xuzhou is in my hands. My lord is still the number one hero in the world, so there is no need to worry!"
Gao Shun was very disdainful of this kind of horses, but he would not argue with his colleagues. He reminded: "My lord, you have to go back to defend Guangling now!"
Lu Bu was also a man of foresight, and immediately said: "Go to Xiapi to rest for a day, and then immediately send troops to Guangling."
Lu Bu killed Ding Yuan, devoured his soldiers and horses, and occupied Guangling. However, he was too hasty and did not occupy the entire territory of Guangling, nor did he leave many soldiers and horses to garrison.
Cheng Lian glanced at Gao Shun and said disdainfully: "My lord, Yuan Shao is surrounded by Yuan Shu in Hefei. The only one who can threaten Guangling is Sun Jian of Wu County. Now Sun Jian must be like a lost dog. How dare he invade my lord's Guangling?"
"My lord! My lord!"
Suddenly, a Pegasus galloped over. The messenger dropped to the ground, knelt down on one knee, and said loudly: "My lord, Sun Jian, the governor of Wu County, attacked Guangling. Guangling County has been occupied by Sun Jian. Cao Cao, the Cavalry Commander, led three thousand troops. We’re going to Xu County!”
Lu Bu opened his eyes angrily, struck the ground with his spear, and shouted: "Sun Jian, you kid, is bullying me! Everyone, obey my orders and follow me into Guangling!"
"Yes!" Gao Shun, Cao Xing, Cheng Lian and others responded loudly.
With a livid face, Lu Bu led an army of nearly 20,000 men and headed straight towards Guangling County.
The army moved like the wind, and it was as if there was no one in Xiapi. It crossed across and directly met Guan Yu.
"kill!"
Lu Bu didn't say anything, took the lead, went straight to Guan Yu and killed him.
Being caught off guard by Lu Bu's 20,000-strong army, Guan Yu didn't panic. His red phoenix eyes flashed with coldness and he said, "They say Lu Bu is brave and unparalleled, but Guan just doesn't believe it!"
"I, Zhang Fei, don't believe it either. Second brother, I'll come first!"
Zhang Fei directly hit the horse and charged towards him.
Guan Yu lost the initiative, so he was not worried about his third brother. He swept through Lu Bu's army all over the mountains and fields, ordered his troops to cut off the rear, and prepared to withdraw.
Lu Bu was obviously furious. He did not surround Guan Yu's three thousand men. He slashed at Zhang Fei with his spear like the wind and shouted: "Nameless rat, give me your name!"
Zhang Fei, who also had a spear and a green-maned horse on his crotch, roared: "Zhang Yide, a man from Yan! Little Lu Bu, take your life!"
boom
The two sides fought, spears clashed, and passed each other.
Lu Bu didn't realize it, so he rushed out, reined in his horse, turned around and stabbed back.
Zhang Fei's mouth was numb, his eyes were wide open, and he yelled to fight Lu Bu again.
The battle between the two sides was fierce, and they felt evenly matched, but Zhang Fei felt that he could not defeat Lu Bu!
On the other side, Gao Shun, Cheng Lian and others surrounded Guan Yu.
Guan Yu didn't panic, raised his sword, slapped his horse and left, shouting at the same time: "Third brother, let's go!"
Zhang Fei heard the shouting, struggled to break free, hit his horse and fled.
"Don't even think about leaving!"
Lu Bu was so angry that he continued to pursue and kill him.
But Guan Yu and Zhang Fei left anyway, and Lu Bu could not keep them.
Lu Bu was filled with hatred, but he could not continue the pursuit. He turned his horse's head and said, "Go to Guangling!"
Compared with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Lu Bu's most important thing now is to capture Guangling and consolidate Xuzhou's territory.
Gao Shun and others naturally said nothing, rectified their troops and turned to Guangling.
As for Guan Yu, Zhang Fei ran some distance away and was relieved when he saw that Lu Bu didn't catch up.
Zhang Fei looked at the bleeding tiger's mouth and said unconvinced: "Lü Bu, a straight woman and a thief, has so much strength!"
Guan Yu glanced at him with a surprised look and said, "Third brother, how many moves did Lu Bu have with you?"
Zhang Fei wrapped his hands around the cloth and said casually: "Not many, just seven or eight moves. The thief is really brave. I can't beat him!"
Guan Yu's eyes were flashing with fire, thinking in his heart that if he had the chance, he would have a fight with Lu Bu!
Far behind them, Huangfu Jianchang hurriedly chased, but still failed to catch up, but he got a lot of news.
Huangfu Jian couldn't help but slow down, with a strange look on his face, and said to Cheng Yu beside him: "Sun Jian captured Guangling, Yuan Shao conquered Zhang He, Liu Biao captured Changsha County..."
Cheng Yu looked at the information in his hand and was in a trance for a while, saying: "This change seems to be a bit fast."
Huangfu Jian calmed down and said, "Sir, why do I feel that something is wrong here?"
Cheng Yu nodded subconsciously, and then said: "I can understand Sun Jian's capture of Guangling. But Yuan Shao conquered Zhang He and occupied Jiujiang... In the cold winter, Liu Biao also captured Changsha, and Yuan Shu was defeated a little quickly..."
Huangfu Jian long touched his chin and said: "Weird, really weird..."
Cheng Yu thought for a long time, raised his head and said: "Second Young Master, that Sun Jian is obviously similar to Dong Zhuo and does not respect the imperial court. He has occupied Guangling and will probably covet Xuzhou, Yangzhou and Jizhou. Yuan Shao conquered Zhang He, There are probably 40,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, which cannot be underestimated. And Liu Biao... occupies almost the entire Jingzhou, and there are many big families behind him. There is no shortage of money and food. If the imperial court wants to control him, it is probably beyond the reach of the whip. "
Huangfu Jianchang frowned when he heard this.
Things changed so fast and suddenly that he was caught off guard and had no coping strategy for a while.
Cheng Yu saw Huangfu Jian's serious expression and continued: "Second Young Master, the key now is Xuzhou and Runan County. There must be no loss in these two places, otherwise it will ruin the imperial court's plan!"
Huangfu Jianchang was still thinking about it and said: "I will write to the court right away. However, you know the situation in Xuzhou. Runan County is in the hands of Gongsun Zan. This man has kept a low profile for several years. I can't guess what he is thinking. .”
Cheng Yu nodded, sighed slightly, and said: "The imperial court has tried every possible means to gain stability in the north, but now I am afraid that it will have to change its strategy."
Cheng Yu had been discussing this issue with Huangfu Jian for a long time recently, but he never thought that the sudden change in the situation would shatter their previous expectations.
The corners of Huangfu Jianchang's mouth twitched unconsciously. He remembered what Liu Bian said to him before leaving Beijing.
'The South is getting better and better. Let them fight, but you can't let them stop. '
Nowadays, Yuan Shu's power has been greatly weakened. Instead, Sun Jian, Yuan Shao, Liu Biao and others continue to gain power. These people have ulterior motives and obey the orders of the imperial court.
The development and changes in the south will continue to escape the control of the imperial court!
That is to say, it deviates from the preset direction of the mysterious majesty in the palace.
'Your Majesty, you won't blame me, will you? '
Huangfu Jianchang thought with some anxiety.
The closest death he had come to in this life was a single word from His Majesty.
'beat! '
I have to write a big plot, so I have an outline and a detailed outline. I have written a little bit, so I will make up for it tomorrow.
