The school ground can accommodate thousands of people to practice, and more than 200 people standing here seems a bit empty.

Lu Bu walked up to the platform accompanied by Gao Shun and Zhang Liao.

Holding the hilt of the sword in hand, he looked around the soldiers present.

More than 200 people all had a pale face and no radiance in their eyes, and they looked very tired.

"I have fought for several months, thank you for your hard work," Lu Bu shouted.

"See the general to the death!" Although exhausted, the soldiers still shouted in unison with their heads raised their chests.

In the hearts of the soldiers, Lu Bu is like a god of war.

Since he led 200 cavalry to burn Cao's army's food and grass at night, and burned Xiahou Dun on the top of the mountain, he has become a myth of undefeated in the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies.

"I have been with you for a long time. I know that everyone here is a warrior." Lu Bu shouted: "There is something I must tell you. Maybe you will cause a lot of trouble when you know it, but I still have to say it! If I am not honest and cannot get your help, I can't face it alone!"

Lu Bu actually asked the soldiers for help, and almost everyone's face showed confusion.

They had never seen Lu Bu face a humble soldier with a humble tone.

"We almost have no food," Lu Bu continued: "All the food is not enough for the military to consume for a month. Even if we don't consider the hungry people, we will not be able to survive next year's harvest season."

He actually said in front of the soldiers that there was a shortage of food in the army, and Gao Shun and Zhang Liao were both stunned.

The most taboo thing in the army is to spread news of food shortage.

Everyone who commands the troops knows that even if they really lack food, the soldiers will have the illusion that they can't finish their food.

Become a soldier and fight bloody on the battlefield to fill your stomach.

If you can't even have enough stomachs, who is willing to fight to the death?

Sure enough, Lu Bu said that the army was short of food, and the soldiers all showed a surprised expression.

The ordered array was a little turbulent.

Although he was still in place, the soldiers began to whisper to each other.

"Warm..." Gao Shun approached Lu Bu and whispered something to remind him.

Lu Bu raised his hand and signaled him not to speak.

He glanced at Zhang Liao, who was also confused, and Gao Shun retreated back to his original position.

"Have you discussed a countermeasure?" The soldiers were allowed to talk for a while, and Lu Bu shouted: "If no one can make up his mind, should he listen to me?"

The soldiers stopped to talk, looked at him with their eyes, and the school ground returned to tranquility.

"Does we really have no way out if we lack food?" The eyes swept across the soldiers' faces, and Lu Bu said: "Even if the sky falls, as long as people are alive, we can still push it back! We have been struggling on the battlefield countless times, and when did we crawl out of the pile of dead people? Is it just a trivial matter of shortage of food that makes you coward?"

The shortage of food in the army is definitely a major event that concerns life and death, but what Lu Bu said seems to be as simple as just urinating.

The soldiers looked at each other again, but they didn't understand how he could still speak so easily under such a bad situation.

"There is really no way to lack military rations?" Lu Bu's lips curled up and a relaxed smile appeared: "In my opinion, the world is a big granary. If we are born as the world, will we still be starved to death?"

None of the more than 200 people standing on the school ground dared to say a word.

The world is indeed a big granary, but the food belongs to others, so who can give it to them?

"I know where there is food. Do you dare to go with me to get it?" Lu Bu raised his voice and asked the soldiers.

"Dare!" Without food, I could only starve to death. More than two hundred soldiers replied in unison without hesitation.

Lu Bu waved his hand: "Everyone goes back and rest, and sets off tomorrow morning!"

Although I don’t know where the food is, but with Lu Bu personally leading the team, there is no reason why the soldiers dare not go there.

They all dispersed, and the more than 200 people who were depressed just now had their morale red as if they were injected with chicken blood. When someone left, they even looked back and looked around.

"I just suffocated my cold sweat." Zhang Liao breathed a sigh of relief: "The soldiers knew that there was no military ration, and they would most likely be depressed. Unexpectedly, a few words of Wen Hou made their morale high."

"Despair and hope are not completely opposite." Lu Bu said: "There is no hope, and in despair, as long as they give them a little hope, they will strive to achieve it with all their might. After all, there is only one way to live, either advance or die."

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun both nodded thoughtfully.

They suddenly understood why Lu Bu dared to go out of the city to burn Cao's military rations after only two hundred people.

The situation was even more difficult than it is now.

Almost everyone thought that Xia Pi was over, but Lu Bu was seeking victory in danger and led the soldiers to avenge in desperate situations.

"Where is Wen Hou going to borrow food?" Zhang Liao asked.

"Zhongli." Lu Bu said: "There is the closest to Xuzhou. If you rob food, you can evacuate it in time."

"What should we do if Yuan Shu sends troops to chase him?" Gao Shun said: "After being trapped for so long, Xuzhou has been worse than before. Although Yuan Shu has declined, he is still better than us."

"Yuan Shu is not Cao Cao." Lu Bu said: "If he dares to come, I can make him come and go."

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were with Lu Bu on the left and right.

When he arrived outside the military camp, Lu Bu told the two of them: "Don't send the two hundred people on the school ground to clean up the ruins. You must have the energy to plunder food."

"Don't worry, we understand." Gao Shun said.

"During these days when I am not here, I will leave the city to Wen Yuan. General Gao, don't forget to train the soldiers." After explaining the two, Lu Bu left the barracks.

Watching him go away, Zhang Liao asked Gao Shun: "General Gao, do you think Wen Hou is very different from before recently?"

Gao Shun nodded: "It seems that he is more arrogant than before, and he is not so indecisive in doing things. If Wen Hou had not decisively left the city to burn Cao's military rations, Xia Pi would have been destroyed at this time."

"How come Wen Hou suddenly changed?" Zhang Liao said: "This change is too big. I can't believe it was Wen Hou we have followed for many years."

"Can it be that Wei Xu and others rebelled, which made Wen Hou too sad, so that he became like this?" Gao Shun said uncertainly.

"It's very likely." Zhang Liao said: "After all, Wen Hou once relied so much on them, but they still rebelled in the end. This kind of thing will not feel good if anyone does."

Leaving the barracks, Lu Bu came to a street in the city.

The military and civilians cleaned up day and night, but the manpower was not efficient after all, and there were many broken walls on both sides of the road.
