After hearing Yuan Shu's explanation, Ju Yi realized that these strategies of his were not worth mentioning here. He still had a long way to go before he could become a general commanding the three armies. At the very least, he had to surpass Zhao Yun first.
"Ju Yi thanks my lord for teaching me."
Kneeling down on one knee, Ju Yi showed humility.
"There is no need to do this big ceremony. Get up. Do you still have any objections?"
Yuan Shu glanced at the remaining three people.
"Lord, I want to go to the south of Yangtou Mountain with General Zilong to find out how much Lu Bu weighs."
Dian Wei suddenly stood up and asked Yuan Shu for help.
"Haha, our guard commander finally couldn't bear it anymore."
Yuan Shu glanced at Dian Wei. He knew very well what Dian Wei meant. He must have wanted to meet Lu Bu for a while, but the most fundamental thing was that he was worried about Zhao Yun.
Lu Bu now has the title of the best general in the world on his head. The princes who were fighting in front of Sishui Pass changed their minds after hearing the news. They even fought one against three, Zhao Yun, Yan Liang, and Wen Chou. Now Zhao Yun is left alone.
It's strange that Dian Wei wasn't worried when he went to meet Lu Bu.
It's just that he said this just to protect Zhao Yun and avoid hurting his self-esteem.
"Zhao Yun would like to thank General Dian Wei in advance."
Zhao Yun is also a wonderful person, so he naturally understands what Dian Wei means.
If you can beat it, you can beat it. If you can't beat it, you can't beat it. It's easy to know that you are not as good as others, but it is difficult to admit that you are not as good as others. But only by recognizing your own shortcomings can you motivate yourself to forge ahead and surpass your original comparison in the end.
People who are not good enough.
Obviously Zhao Yun has achieved this, which is also a major factor why he can continue to advance and become a victorious general in the post-Lü Bu era.
"Haha, thank you. The main thing is to test Lu Bu's quality."
Compared to Zhao Yun's free and easy attitude, Dian Wei was a little shy, and his old face instantly became rosier.
"Haha, let's do it like this. Once Lu Bu wants to run away, it will be left to you two."
Yuan Shu nodded. The generals on his side must not be too independent. The best condition is to be able to cooperate sincerely.
"promise."
"promise."
Zhao Yun and Dian Wei both clasped their fists and accepted the order.
"Everyone, please remember not to alert the enemy. Now you have enough energy to set off in the evening."
Now that the strategy had been formulated, the entire Jizhou Army took action. Except for the 15,000 militiamen who simulated the army's pressure outside Changzi City, the other armies all set off at night and rushed towards their predetermined places.
"My lord, there is a messenger coming."
"pass."
Lu Bu frowned. After so many days of traveling, he finally passed Gaoping County. The next stop was Changzi City, but now that Zhang Yang's messenger came, he didn't know what was going on.
"Lord Wen Hou, please save the prefect."
As soon as the messenger entered the room, he saw Lu Bu sitting in the front seat. He knelt on the ground and burst into tears without caring about the others.
"Cry your ass, tell me what's the matter."
Seeing the messenger's appearance, Lu Bu couldn't help but frown.
"Marquis Wen, our Grand Administrator led his troops to fight with Lu Bu at Hubeiguan. Unexpectedly, he was defeated by him. Only 5,000 cavalry came back from 30,000 troops. Now Yuan Shu has surrounded Changzi City. Although he mobilized two
Wan Jingzhuang came to the city, but..."
The messenger couldn't continue talking and started sobbing again.
"Come here, take this crybaby down here."
"promise."
Although the messenger spoke intermittently, Lu Bu basically already knew the situation in Changzi City.
"Everyone, Changzi City is in danger, what should we do?"
Lu Bu looked at the generals in the tent, his brows unknowingly twisted into the character "Sichuan".
"Lord, I suggest you give up your rest and rush to the Changzi City immediately."
Song Xian stood up and cupped his fists towards Lu Bu.
"Lord, our army has been on the road for such a long time. If we don't take a break, I'm afraid the sergeants will feel very uncomfortable."
Hearing Song Xian's words, Gao Shun stood up. He disagreed and hurried away.
"Gao Shun, what are you thinking about?"
As soon as Gao Shun finished speaking, another person stood up and scolded Gao Shun.
"Hao Meng, what do you mean?"
Hearing Hao Meng's words, Gao Shun was stunned. What was he worried about? He was just talking about the matter.
"Gao Shun, let me ask you, what is the purpose of my lord leading the army to come here to Bingzhou for so long?"
The corner of Hao Meng's mouth tilted, revealing a strange smile.
"Of course I came to Bingzhou to rescue Zhang Yang."
Although Gao Shun was stunned, he still blurted out the basic things.
"Then let me ask you, how much do you think Changzi City, which is short of major generals, can withstand Yuan Shu's attack? After the city is broken, Zhang Yang will not be able to survive, but we are in Gaoping County, knowing that Changzi City is in danger, but we have to rest and recuperate on the spot.
Watching Zhang Yang die in battle and ignoring him will make the world call the Lord an unjust person."
I have to say that there is some truth to what Hao Meng said.
If they hadn't come to rescue, it wouldn't matter whether Zhang Yang lived or died, but now that he was here, he had to rest where he was. Once the Changzi City was captured, Lu Bu's reputation of refusing to save anyone would be fulfilled.
"Lord, I really don't mean that. The whole army is exhausted and if we send troops hastily, it may be difficult to win."
Having said this, Gao Shun, an honest man, immediately blushed, but even so, he persisted in his opinion.
"Gao Shun, stop talking. I have decided to suspend the rest of the entire army and rush to Changzi City to rescue Zhang Yang."
After looking at Gao Shun and then at Hao Meng, Lu Bu decided to give up rest and rescue Changzi City.
"Lord, if you insist on rescuing Changzi City now, then I suggest you go to Fajiu Mountain."
Gao Shun frowned and glanced at Lu Bu, then spoke again and gave his opinion.
"Lord, you can't go to Fajiu Mountain. I think you should go to Yangtou Mountain."
Hao Meng stood up again, clasped his fists and spoke to Lu Bu.
"Hao Meng, what are you worried about? The road on Fajiu Mountain is flat and easy to walk, which is suitable for a large army to march. The winding road on Yangtou Mountain makes it difficult for an army to deploy. Moreover, I am afraid that Yuan Shu will ambush there, and it will be over by then."
Now Gao Shun was completely angry, what the hell do you want to do?
"What kind of peace of mind do I have? I want to ask you, what kind of peace of mind do you have?"
Seeing Gao Shun getting angry, Hao Meng also glared at him with a fierce look in his eyes.
"Why am I worried? Of course I am thinking about the army."
Gao Shun glared and shouted at Hao Meng.
"Then let me ask you, it only takes a day and a half to cross Yangtou Mountain from Gaoping to the eldest son. How long does it take to go around from Fajiu Mountain? There is always two and a half days, right? Now that the eldest son is in danger, the so-called saving people is like
When putting out a fire, you abandon the near and seek the far away. What kind of peace of mind do you have?"
Although Hao Meng's words are more powerful than Gao Shun's, what he said is also true. Saving people is like putting out fires. There is really no big problem in walking up Yangtou Mountain.
"Lord, although what Hao Meng said makes sense, there are limits to saving people. If Yuan Shu really sets an ambush in Yangtou Mountain, it will be all over."
