Chapter 426

Lu Bu led a large army to Lumenting, stationed that night only one mile away from Cao's army, and had no intention of attacking.

At night, Lu Bu ordered the soldiers to light bonfires in the military camp and look over from the hills near Lumen Pavilion. The bonfires in the military camp were connected in pieces, contrasting with the stars in the night sky, as if countless stars were inlaid on the ground covered by night.

Since Lu Bu came here, Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun have been guarding all the time and never dared to relax for a moment.

Standing on the hill and looking at the Xuzhou army stationed, Cao Ren said to Xiahou Dun: "Yuan Rang, go and rest. I'll stare tonight. If there is anything abnormal, I will tell you immediately."

"Zixiao is the master general. How can I rest when I am watching the master general on the mountain?" Xiahou Dun said: "It's better for Zixiao to rest. I'm here. Are you still worried?"

"I'm sure I'm relieved to be here." Cao Ren replied: "It's just that Yuan Rang is extremely brave. If Lu Bu comes, you still have the power to fight, but I'm not his opponent. Instead of resting and resting, it's better for Yuan Rang to rest. When Lu Bu comes, there is someone who can deal with it."

When it comes to martial arts, Xiahou Dun is indeed much better than Cao Ren.

Cao Ren said this, and Xiahou Dun frowned slightly: "When it comes to martial arts, even three or five of them, I am not Lu Bu's opponent. If I decide who will rest, it is really unnecessary. I think it's better to let the soldiers prepare early and beware of Lu Bu's killing at all times."

Lu Bu once fought against dozens of Cao's military generals with one force, including Xiahou Dun.

The few people he picked up and killed were all ordinary martial arts, but there were many people like Xiahou Dun who were the best in the three armies that day.

Cao Ren sighed softly: "I really don't understand why God favors Lu Bu so much. He was already middle-aged and his courage would decline every day. But he returned to his youth overnight after the battle in Xia Pi. His courage is indeed not something we can deal with now."

Xiahou Dun's face was also very bad.

When Cao Ren sighed, Xiahou Dun, with a gloomy face, said nothing.

The two of them had already led their soldiers to Lumen Pavilion to make arrangements, waiting for Lu Bu to arrive, and then give him a head-on blow.

But Lu Bu really came, but Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun felt endless pressure.

Facing the killing god Lu Bu, even a powerful general like Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren, he would feel heavy pressure.

In order to be on guard against Lu Bu, Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren were not sleepy late at night.

Lu Bu wanted to sleep, but the generals and counselors who came here with the army were still gathered in his tent.

Everyone learned that he was determined to enter Cao's army alone the next day, and came here to dissuade him from doing that.

After listening to everyone's dissuasion, Lu Bu asked them: "Can you let me tell me about my plans?"

Lu Bu had something to say, but of course everyone would not speak anymore, and his eyes were staring at him.

"I know what you are worried about." Lu Bu said to the generals and counselors: "What you worry about is nothing more than that I failed to successfully rush forward, either killed by Cao's army or captured by them."

"Since the Chu Hou understands why do you still do that?" Zhou Yu said: "The soldiers are all watching Chu Hou. If the Chu Hou is in an accident, how should we deal with it? More than 100,000 soldiers went on an expedition to defeat Cao Cao, thereby changing the situation in the Central Plains, and follow Chu Hou to achieve success in the future. Once Chu Hou is in danger, how could the soldiers not save it? Cao Cao was deceitful and must have made plans to completely defeat our army while our morale was unstable..."

"Gongjin turned out to be so unconfident in me." Lu Bu smiled slightly: "I thought you all believed in my courage, and thought I would definitely be able to fight back and forth among the Cao army..."

"Of course we all know that the Marquis of Chu is brave and powerful." Xu Shu said: "But Marquis of Chu also needs to understand that it is not just brave enough to win on the battlefield. It also requires the deployment of the three armies and the soldiers move forward steadily."

Looking at the others, Lu Bu smiled: "I know you all have this kind of thought. You only know that I am too risky to do this, but you don't know why I do this."

"Of course we know that the Chu Hou was to show his martial arts, make the Cao army frightened, and make our soldiers proud." Xu Shu said: "But what Gongjin said is right. It would be okay that the Chu Hou was able to successfully fight in and out. If not, wouldn't it put the soldiers in a state of dying."

"Showing martial arts?" Lu Bu smiled and shook his head: "It seems that none of you really understand me. A person as low-key and introverted as me, is he so eager to show his martial arts?"

Lu Bu said that he was low-key and introverted, and everyone felt a little whispered.

Since I became involved in Lu Bu, I have only seen him show off everywhere, but I have never seen him as a low-key and introverted side.

Although he did not agree with Lu Bu's statement in his heart, no one would say it in person.

After all, Lu Bu is their lord, and if he exposes his statement in person, it will really make him feel uncomfortable...

Everyone had no words, Lu Bu continued: "Since the battle between Xia Pi, Cao Cao has repeatedly attacked Xuzhou. Although we have defeated his attack every time, our real counterattack is now. If the soldiers defended the Cao army, they will still have enough morale. But when I take them to attack Cao Cao, many soldiers are deeply worried in their hearts."

Not only did the strategists know Lu Bu’s statement in their hearts, but the generals also understood it very well.

After a glance at each other, everyone's faces showed a hint of confusion and hesitation.

Zhou Yu said to Lu Bu: "What Chu Hou said is indeed correct, but we still think..."

"Actually, what you said is right." Lu Bu interrupted Zhou Yu, and he stood up and looked around everyone: "The soldiers are afraid of Cao Cao. If they don't dispel their concerns, we will definitely not be able to get a good fight in the future. The best way to dispel the concerns is to let the soldiers see that they did not follow the wrong person! Follow me, I can lead them to destroy Cao Cao, take them to unify the world, and make them achieve unparalleled merits!"

"The Chu Hou's idea is indeed correct, but..." Zhou Yu still disagrees with Lu Bu's statement.

His worries were actually the concerns of everyone, otherwise almost all generals and counselors would have come to dissuade Lu Bu.
