Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Cao Cao's strategy of exchanging space for fighter planes is indeed very effective. After Chenliu and Yingchuan were captured, Cao Cao took the initiative to abandon Runan, Liangguo, Chenguo, and Dongping County, and fought and retreated along the way, not following Xu Rong. The head-to-head confrontation with Gao Shun was just breaking bridges and digging water, causing great trouble for Xu Rong and Gao Shun. Scholars from all over the country also took advantage of Cao Cao's dispatch of troops to delay Guanzhong's army.

As a result, many cities along the way were deserted, and after a large number of people followed, they were ignored, and eventually became refugees. Xu Rong and Gao Shun had no choice but to stop to take in the refugees and resettle them.

It was also thanks to Lu Bu that he had prepared for this battle for ten years. Both officials and supplies were sufficient. Otherwise, the Central Plains would be starved to death.

"It really doesn't make people worry!" Quanzhou, it's been a month since Lu Bu knew about this incident. Although he had already deduced that such a situation might happen, when it actually happened, Lu Bu was still a little uncomfortable. Cao Cao was the way he valued more. The princes, not from a very good background, are also willing to accept the poor.

But judging from the massacre of Xuzhou in those days, to today's actions of exchanging the lives of the people of the Central Plains for time, Lu Bu has finally determined that Cao Cao is a hero, but he is not the same as him.

Since he has to fight to the end, let him fulfill him.

"Cao Cao wants to exchange Yuzhou and Yanzhou for the extension of our army's supplies. If he wants to go to the Central Plains quickly, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult." Guo Jia groped his chin.

When the Guanzhong Army entered Jizhou, and they were able to capture Jizhou so quickly, one of the biggest reasons was that Yuan Shao dared to fight them decisively.

Cao Cao obviously learned the lessons of the battle of Jizhou. After realizing that the main force could not fight against Lu Bu, he immediately changed his strategy and lengthened the front line, focusing on harassing the rear of the grain.

This strategy is indeed good, but it is based on Lu Bu's eagerness to get the Central Plains, or to win.

"Set up the places you get first, and then you can fight again." Lu Bu said casually, most of Yanzhou and Yuzhou have already fallen into his hands, and Jizhou has not been completely annexed, so it will take time to digest, and the Jizhou army is in The Qingzhou incident also gave Lu Bu a wake-up call.

Don't be in a hurry, just take your time.

really.

Guo Jia nodded and smiled when he heard the words: "What the lord said is exactly what he said."

Following Lv Bu's orders, the war in the Central Plains gradually stopped. In the direction of Chang'an, Lv Yong's relocation of the capital had already begun. It is to improve the official system of the counties and counties. The emperor is still in Chang'an, but the six departments have begun to operate efficiently.

Cao Cao was busy shrinking the front line, but when he learned of Lu Bu's actions, he was silent.

Since he can't catch up, then stop chasing, first stabilize the rear, and then continue to fight, this move completely ruined Cao Cao's plans, especially since Gao Shun and Xu Rong have begun to fortify along Cao Cao's sphere of influence, Cao Cao feels uncomfortable for a while. When did Lu Bu's character become so stable?

Seeing that the next step is the world's final decision, is it still so stable at this time?

"My lord, Yuan Tan has been in a hurry several times and can't wait any longer." Cheng Yu hurried in, looked at Cao Cao and said.

"Tell Yuan Tan, I will give Lang Ya to him for the time being, and rely on Mount Tai to be stationed." Cao Cao sighed, now where is he in the mood to take care of Yuan Tan? Who would have thought that Lu Bu would be so easily satisfied by giving up a large area of ​​land to inflict heavy damage on Lu Bu.

Now Xuzhou has a large population. When Cao Cao slaughtered Xuzhou and slaughtered on both sides of the Huai River, there were more than ten empty cities, but now they have brought in a large number of people, not only supplementing the population of Xuzhou, but also many people have nowhere to go, only If you can migrate to Guangling, Guangling belongs to a sparsely populated area. As long as you are willing to open up wasteland, it can accommodate a lot of people.

In addition, some people began to flee to Jiangdong, which is also impossible. With the current situation in the Central Plains, it is not easy to block the Guanzhong army. Many people have no confidence in Cao Cao, and they are unwilling to join Lu Bu, so they can only flee to Jiangdong. .

In addition, there are also some people who give up continuing to resist Lu Bu and choose to stay in the Central Plains. As long as they are willing to hand over the land, there will usually be no further suppression. Although it is not as good as before, it is better than running around. Now Xuzhou is here. The side is obviously not enough to divide, even if it can be defended in the future, this territory is not enough for so many nobles to divide.

What's more, most of Xuzhou's farming and lucrative businesses are controlled by the Xuzhou nobility headed by the Chen family. Now, because the enemy is approaching, they are united, but this will always pass. Even if the victory is finally won, there is only one Xuzhou left. There is no room for so many clans.

Unless the Chen family is willing to share, disputes are inevitable.

What Cao Cao can do now is to try his best to pass the conflict on to Lü Bu. Since Lü Bu was about to stop and digest the gains from the battle, Cao Cao could not do what Lü Bu wished and could only send troops.

If you can't fight, you have to fight, so that Xuzhou will not be in chaos.

Cheng Yu nodded with a wry smile, but with Yuan Tan's current situation, even if he is willing to withdraw to Langya, it is not an easy task!

Naturally, Cao Cao couldn't control this, so he ordered Yu Jin to take advantage of this time to train a group of elite men to carry out raids.

In addition, he also wanted to see if he could imitate the Vulcan Cannon.

With these terrifying weapons, Guan Zhongjun could not lift their heads when they fought on the battlefield. If they can copy a batch, it is not impossible for them to counterattack.

After Cheng Yu left, Cao Cao came to the workshop. They fought with Xu Rong and finally captured two Vulcan Cannons. He wanted to see if the Vulcan Cannons could be made.

In fact, before that, Cao Cao also let people steal the design drawings of the Tai Chi car, but no one could understand it. The internal structure alone made the craftsmen who wanted to copy it numb. Part of the complex internal structure can be seen as tenon. The Mao structure, but more of it seems to have grown up, it is internal, how to do it?

As for the principle of the Tai Chi stove, no one can understand it.

Since the Tai Chi furnace can't be used, let's see if this Vulcan cannon can be imitated. Cao Cao still has great expectations for this, but the craftsman in charge of this gave Cao Cao a blow.

"I can't make it!?" Cao Cao couldn't believe his ears. Looking at the craftsman's eyes, he felt like he was going to eat people. Do you know how much they spent for these two Vulcan cannons?

Now you tell me I can't make it! ?

"My lord, calm down, it's because I couldn't make it, but I don't know how to use it if I made it!" The craftsman leader frowned.

Now, with the prosperity of Guanzhong because of craftsmen, the princes have also begun to attach importance to the status of craftsmen on bamboo slips, and the continuous crossbow has been cracked because of this.

But the Vulcan Cannon in front of him obviously stumped everyone.

"Why?" Cao Cao looked at the other party in confusion.

"Look, my lord." The craftsman took Cao Cao to a gun barrel and pointed to the gun pipe: "Whether the internal partition or the amount of iron used, it is difficult for me to reach the level of Guanzhong cast iron, and it is difficult for this pipe to be as good as Guanzhong. Generally, it fits perfectly, this barrel is made by me into two pieces and then fastened by tenon and mortise, so the internal structure is basically the same.”

"If that's the case, why can't it be used?" Cao Cao asked in confusion.

"I don't know." The craftsman frowned and said, "According to the internal structure, it needs a force like a bowstring to push the stone out, but there is no bowstring inside. As far as I know, the Guan Zhongjun should be igniting from here, and also in the next. I tried it, and the built-in tung oil ignited it, but I couldn't push the stone ball out like the Vulcan Cannon in Guanzhong. I can't even use the Vulcan Cannon in Guanzhong. Push the stone ball out, without this ring, this Vulcan Cannon is just a big iron ingot!"

When Cao Cao heard this, his brows were furrowed. What kind of magic trick Lu Bu was studying in Guanzhong all these years, he actually made something that a craftsman could not understand even if he took it apart!

Head hurts again!

"Forget it, you can continue to explore the mystery!" Cao Cao sighed, covered his head and returned to the room, asking Xu Chu to call Hua Tuo to treat his headache.

In the afternoon, Cao Cao invited Chen Deng and Chen Qun to discuss the matter. In the past, Liu Bei's three Chen subordinates had become Cao Cao's people. Unfortunately, Chen Gong has been imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment. If nothing else, it is impossible to be loyal to anyone anymore.

In addition to Xun Yu and Cheng Yu, Cao Cao had a lot of advisors.

Coupled with the support of a large number of families, Cao Cao is now many times stronger than in the past in terms of human and material resources. If this happened before Lv Bu attacked Jizhou, Cao Cao estimated that he could wake up from a dream, but now, Cao Cao Not happy at all.

If anyone can tell him the secrets of the Vulcan Cannons and Zhentianlei, then Cao Cao may be happy, but now...

Cao Cao pointed to the blueprint on the table and told everyone, "This is the blueprint of the Taichi stove, which was obtained by accident from our army's meticulous work in Guanzhong. It has been a year since then, but it is hard to imagine why the Taichi stove can be automatic. You are all wise men in the world, I wonder if you can solve the confusion?"

Cao Cao Jue's Vulcan Cannon may be related to this Tai Chi furnace. The two appear almost at the same time. If you say it doesn't matter, Cao Cao doesn't believe it, but Cao Cao can't think of the relationship. Fan.

Chen Deng and Chen Qun heard the words and looked at the blueprint, their brows slightly wrinkled, a little dazed.

What's this?

Chen Qun looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see a name. He shook his head and said: "Tai Chi... Tai Chi, the mystery of poor yin and yang, can biogenerate all things. I'm afraid this furnace is not made by immortals instead of manpower?"

Cao Cao shook his head, and the immortal taught the law. If this is the case, why didn't the immortal help Lu Bu to rule the world directly, and it was interesting to give this inexplicable thing?

A group of the world's top wise men pondered the blueprints for a day and never had the slightest clue. In the end, Cao Cao could only give up his plan to make a Tai Chi stove, and then he had to go to Jiangdong to discuss it. Jiangdong's naval forces were comparable between the two Huaihe. Infantry works!
