Also, it is impossible to hide the advancing army. In addition to standing ready, did the camp in Daocheng take any other actions? Did it send people north to ask for help? "
Hearing what the scouts said, Lu Bu also nodded. It was not easy for him to place some scouts there. If he really lost his eyes because of alerting others, it would be more of a loss than a gain.
"The captain has arranged for people to go north to ambush. I believe that as long as they send people to ask for help, they will definitely try to stop them."
This was the first wave of scouts. He knew that the captain had sent people north, but he didn't know the specific situation.
"Well, order the army to stop resting and continue heading north."
After hearing what the scout said, Lu Bu knew that he could no longer rest. Time was life. If he were the camp guard, he would definitely send troops north to ask for reinforcements after getting the news. So what he had to do now was to capture this camp before the enemy's reinforcements arrived.
Damn Yingdao City.
"promise."
Lu Bu gave an order, and the 70,000-strong army immediately stopped resting, left Xiemucheng, and continued running north toward the camp road.
Not long into the march, I saw a fast horse riding directly towards me.
"who?"
When the soldiers and horses at the front saw the man, they directly pointed their swords at him and surrounded him.
"I am a general scout. Get out of the way quickly. I have an urgent military report."
The person who came was none other than the scout who came back from the camp road. When he saw the soldiers in front of him, he screamed loudly.
"Let him pass."
Upon hearing the scout's shout, the captain at the front waved his hand and asked the soldiers to get out of the way and not to block it.
Soon a passage appeared, and the scouts ran all the way straight to the front of Lu Bu's troops.
"General, the scout is back."
Song Xian directly brought the scouts to Lu Bu.
"General, urgent military situation."
When the scout came to Lu Bu, he dismounted and saluted directly.
"explain."
Hearing the scout say there was an urgent military situation, Lu Bu also frowned.
"The camp guard general sent hundreds of cavalrymen to the north to ask for reinforcements, but we failed to stop them. The captain's message is that the general must hurry up, otherwise once the enemy's reinforcements arrive, something may happen."
The scout directly conveyed the captain's thoughts to Lu Bu.
"I had already guessed that it wouldn't be that easy. The whole army marches in a hurry. It will take three days, at most three days, to get to the base of Yingdao City."
After hearing what the scouts said, Lu Bu knew that his guess was correct. The enemy would definitely send troops to ask for help, and the soldiers who relied on the scouts were afraid of alerting the enemy and did not dare to stop them too much. It was right that they could not stop them.
"The general has given an order, and the entire army must move quickly and arrive at Yingdao City within three days."
"The general has given an order, and the entire army must move quickly and arrive at Yingdao City within three days."
"The general has given an order, and the entire army must move quickly and arrive at Yingdao City within three days."
Lu Bu's orders were passed down one after another. After receiving the order, the forward speed of the 70,000-strong army increased again, and they rushed towards Yingdao City across the long yellow sand.
"The generals, military advisors, and people from Camp Daocheng are here."
The scouts from Yingdao City also rushed to Lingdao City and were brought directly to Zhao Yun and Tian Feng.
"Strategic advisor, general."
When the scouts entered the room and saw Tian Feng and Zhao Yun in the first place, they knelt down on one knee and saluted.
"Okay, Xu Nian, didn't you go to Fuchuan?
Why are you back now? Has Lu Bu sent troops?"
Zhao Yun saw the scout and immediately recognized his face.
"Commander, General, Lu Bu sent 70,000 troops from Fuchuan and headed straight to the camp road. I rushed to the camp road to report. General Zhang He sent me to report to you."
When Xu Nian heard Zhao Yun's words, he directly told the news.
"oh?
We sent 70,000 troops, but this Lu Bu only cares about food and not about fighting. How dare such a small number of people come here? It's really impressive."
Hearing that Lu Bu dared to go north with only 70,000 troops, Zhao Yun also laughed. The scars were so healed that he forgot about the pain. He had defeated so many soldiers and horses by him in the past, but now such a small number of people dared to come to the camp to show off their power.
"Haha, Lu Bu is indeed a fierce general. It seems that our strategy of luring the enemy deep has been successful. The 70,000 troops he leads are probably all his own troops."
Tian Feng smiled slightly. It wasn't Lu Bu who wanted to be stronger, but showing weakness to the enemy. Moreover, Lu Bu and Shi Xie had just joined forces. Apart from trust, there was more of a gap between them. Now he only brought his troops here.
In fact, I still don’t trust Shi Xie,
"As the military advisor said, all the soldiers heading north this time are from Lu Bu's headquarters, and there are no soldiers from Jiaozhou Army."
Xu Nian cupped his fists at Tian Feng. Everyone said that the four great planners in Jizhou were ahead of the enemy and had the ability to predict the future. At first, he thought it was just flattery, but now he saw that the military advisor was indeed worthy of his name.
"That's right. General Zilong, with Lu Bu's marching speed, he must have arrived at Xie Mu by now. No, he knew the importance of this battle, so he must have traveled day and night to rush north. Maybe he has already passed Xie Mu by now.
, we are heading towards the camp road, we can take action."
Tian Feng nodded. Since Xu Nian said this, it confirmed his guess. This time Lu Bu would only send troops of his own headquarters at most, so he could start taking action.
"What does the military counselor mean by that? The whole army will set off now and attack Lu Bu from behind?"
Hearing Tian Feng's words, Zhao Yun's eyes also lit up. Wasn't the reason why he withdrew his troops to Lingdao just waiting for this day?
"There is no rush now. Let him suffer some hardships under Yingdao City first. After he fights for two or three days, I will lead the Jianzhong Army and the militia to attack at night, and Lu Bu will be defeated."
Tian Feng shook his head slightly, now that the enemy is hidden and we are clear, it is the time to make arrangements. Although the whole army can directly defeat Lu Bu by attacking, Lu Bu can only endure, and it is very difficult to annihilate him.
"What does the military counselor mean by asking me to go south beyond Xie Mu and wait for an opportunity to sneak attack Lu Bu again?"
Zhao Yun immediately understood Tian Feng's intention, which was to divide his troops into two groups. First, he would send people to attack Lu Bu at night to force him to lead his troops back south, and then he would attack again outside Xiemu City.
"Well, that's exactly it."
Tian Feng nodded, this is exactly what he thought.
"Military advisor, I don't know whether to say something or not."
Hearing that Tian Feng did think so, Zhao Yun frowned slightly.
"If you have something to say, it doesn't hurt to say it."
Seeing Zhao Yun frowning, Tian Feng also frowned.
"Military advisor, I'm afraid you have miscalculated someone."
Zhao Yun looked at Tian Feng, a light flashed in his eyes.
"You mean you miscalculated Lu Bu?"
Tian Feng was not a fool. When he heard Zhao Yun's words, he immediately thought of what he meant.
"Military advisor, Lu Bu is extremely brave. Even if he attacks Yingdao City for several days, his troops and horses are still strong. Even if you lead your troops to attack Lu Bu's camp at night, once Lu Bu goes crazy, not only will he not be able to defeat Lu Bu, but he may also be defeated.
If he hits the enemy with a harrow, he will end up losing troops and generals, and the gain will not be worth the loss."
It's not that Zhao Yun looks down on Tian Feng, but that he has never let down his guard against Lu Bu. Although Lu Bu faced himself and the Jizhou Army and suffered repeated defeats, he is still the strongest general of the Han Dynasty. If anyone dares to despise him, he will inevitably
will suffer a disastrous failure.
"I thought it was a bit simple."
Tian Feng was also stunned when he heard Zhao Yun's words. To be honest, he did have some preconceptions.
Lu Bu was defeated repeatedly in front of him. In his opinion, Lu Bu, the most powerful general of the Han Dynasty, was just in vain.
Lu Bu was just a reckless man and had nothing to worry about, so he thought of dividing his troops into two groups and leaving him outside Xie Mu.
But I have never considered that Lu Bu is not a domestic dog, but a ferocious tiger. Being able to become the most powerful general of the Han Dynasty is definitely not a wasted reputation.
It seemed that he had really thought too little. The Jizhou Army, which was invincible, gave him an arrogant mentality.
Fortunately, Zhao Yun saw it, otherwise if this continues, Lu Bu will probably overturn the situation directly, and then it will be over.
"Military advisor, Zhao Yun is just superficial."
Zhao Yun glanced at Tian Feng and quickly saluted him with cupped fists.
"It's not a superficial view. Fortunately, Zilong woke me up and I almost made a big mistake."
Tian Feng nodded to Zhao Yun. Since he had been awakened, he could not deal with Lu Bu the same way as before.
"What are the military advisors going to do?"
Hearing that Tian Feng had been awakened, Zhao Yun also smiled slightly.
"How to do it?
The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength. Now let’s defeat Lu Bu first and kill him with his energy. As for the rest, let’s wait until the lord comes. We are just the vanguard and we can’t steal the lord’s limelight.”
Tian Feng glanced at Zhao Yun. Since he couldn't divide his troops, there was nothing much to say. He just pressed forward with his entire army and defeated Lu Bu first. As for capturing Jiaozhou, that was Yuan Shu's business. He couldn't just take it upon himself to do it.
"promise."
Hearing Tian Feng's words, Zhao Yun relaxed his frown. He had the same idea. The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength. They can never let down their guard when facing Lu Bu, so what they can do now is to press forward with the whole army.
Give Lu Bu a good beating first and then talk.
For a time, troops and horses were mobilized frequently in Lingdao City. Thirty thousand cavalry and fifty thousand infantry directly went into battle in armor. As soon as weapons and supplies were mobilized, the army left the city and headed south of Chaoyingdao City under the leadership of Zhao Yun.
The first is to cut off Lu Bu's food route, and the second is also because Lu Bu's target is now in Yingdao City, and he will not do any more exploration behind it, which is more conducive to hiding the movements of his army.
Lu Bu's army marched all the way, and finally arrived thirty miles outside Yingdao City on the night of the third day.
"Tell the soldiers to set up camp and recall the scouts."
Lu Bu looked into the distance. Although he was thirty miles away, he seemed to be able to see through the space and face Yingdao City directly.
"promise."
The 70,000-strong army set up camp directly, and the cavalry set off at the same time. After a short time, the scouts who were deployed outside the camp road also returned directly to the army.
"Zhang Ding, is there something unexpected?"
Seeing the scout captain returning, Lu Bu asked him directly.
"Back to General, there are no changes in Yingdao City for the time being, and I have sent people in the direction of Quanling, but there is no news of the arrival of reinforcements."
Zhang Ding naturally knew what Lu Bu wanted to ask, and directly told the news he had found out.
"Okay, take your people north immediately. If you find enemy reinforcements, you must report them immediately."
Lu Bu was relieved when he heard that the reinforcements from Yingdao City had not arrived yet. You must know that what he was most afraid of now was that he had worked so hard to come here. In the end, the enemy's reinforcements arrived in the city first, so everything he had done before was
All your efforts have been in vain.
"No, my subordinate will do it right now."
Zhang Ding directly cupped his fists at Lu Bu, then turned around and left.
"Wait a minute, there's no rush to go. Let's take a rest first and head north tomorrow."
Seeing Zhang Ding about to leave, Lu Bu stopped him and asked him to rest for a night before leaving.
"Thank you, General."
Zhang Ding cupped his fists and went directly to rest.
