Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Vol 3 Chapter 422: poor road

Just in the beginning of spring, he received the news that Gao Shun and Xu Rong's army was going to move.

However, what Cao Cao didn't expect was that Xiaqiu, Hongxian and other places actually surrendered directly. Although the people stationed in this area are not Cao Cao's direct descendants, they are also the children of several noble families in the Central Plains. But it dropped immediately.

This made Cao Cao's rhythm a bit chaotic. At the same time, he also realized that the cultivation of the past few months was not really that Lu Bu could no longer fight, but that Lu Bu deliberately kept it out. Although the enemy's offensive was fierce before, the people were united. , Cao Cao was really not surprised when he saw that a scholar who was powerless would do such a thing.

It was them who forced him to fight, and now seeing the situation reversed, these people were the first to surrender.

Although he had already seen the essence of the nobility, at this moment, Cao Cao couldn't help but want to arrest and kill all these people, but he finally restrained. At this time, the most important thing is to win a game and stabilize everyone's confidence. He also made preparations before. In the area of ​​Lianghuai, with the help of the terrain, the Vulcan Cannon of the Guanzhong Army could not play its due role!

However, just as Cao Cao led the army to attack... Guangling Chen Deng surrendered!

For Cao Cao, this was like a bolt from the blue. He knew very well what the surrender of Chen Deng meant, and it meant that the entire Xuzhou gentry would turn to Lu Bu.

why?

Cao Cao didn't ask, no need to ask. It was the same reason as the Central Plains nobility who surrendered before. Cao Cao even suspected that the surrender of these Central Plains nobility might be the foggy eggs released by the Chen family. In fact, at this time, it would not be surprising for anyone to betray Cao Cao.

His reaction was also decisive enough. After learning that the Chen family had defected, he didn't bother with Lu Bu anymore, and immediately retreated to Xiapi. Cao Ren fought Xu Rong on this front. He retreated here. If possible, he wanted to beat Xu Rong. Rong was caught off guard.

On the Guangling side, the surrender of the Chen family did not mean that the Central Plains nobles also wanted to surrender. There were riots in many places in Guangling, and many people died, including the local nobles who were attached to the Chen family.

No way, most of the nobles have not woken up from the glorious dream of the old era. Now they do not reject Lv Bu's background, but reject Lv Bu's system. If Lv Bu relaxes, they will turn to Lv Bu without hesitation just like the Chen family.

It is a pity that the resistance was in vain. As Gao Shun waved his troops into Guangling, these nobles who fled from the Central Plains could only continue to flee. Some fled to Xiapi to find Cao Cao, but more went to Dongling Pavilion. Escape around.

No one is a fool. Although Jiangdong's environment is harsh, for now, it is much safer than Jiangbei.

The navy sent by Sun Quan to support Cao Cao did not attack after learning that the Chen family had rebelled and Cao Cao retreated to Xiapi, but began to dispatch a large number of ships to the south bank to pull people.

"Don't worry about them, go if you want, and pack up Guangling first!" Lu Bu said to Gao Shun.

In fact, he didn't want these people very much. At this time, he was all escaping from his own rule. Either he was stupid or he recognized that he was the mortal enemy. Of these two kinds of people, Lu Bu didn't really want either.

Since they want to escape to Jiangdong, let's go, just to help Lu Bu explore the way.

"Here!" After Gao Shun took the order, he began to concentrate on occupying the important places in Guangling, but he did not move towards Dongling Pavilion, but only cleared the existing cities.

Lu Bu also met Chen Deng.

"My father was caught in the cold last winter, so he can't come to greet him. I hope the captain will forgive him!" Chen Deng bowed to Lu Bu.

"It's okay, since you're not feeling well, then take a rest." Lu Bu waved his hand and didn't care much about it. As for helping Chen Gui with diagnosis and treatment... He wasn't that free, and he wasn't that cheap, not everyone had it. The qualifications for Lu Bu to personally diagnose, at least the Chen family does not have this qualification.

"During Chang'an, Xuande praised me a lot for Yuanlong's talent, determination, loyalty and bravery. They were all very comparable to others. At that time, Xuande was just a little boastful. When I saw it today, I knew that what I said was true!" After logging in to the city, the two of them had a great conversation along the way. These remarks were also sincerely appreciated, not meant to be sarcastic.

However, to Chen Deng's hearing, it was quite unpleasant. They gave up Liu Bei voluntarily at the beginning, which caused Liu Bei to lose Xuzhou before he showed his defeat. If Liu Bei spoke ill of him behind his back, Chen Deng would not be too uncomfortable, but from From the beginning to the end, Liu Bei didn't say that he was no, but rather praised him, which made Chen Deng feel even more uncomfortable.

Seeing his depressed mood, Lu Bu smiled and said, "What in this world is irrelevant to right or wrong. As far as Xuande is concerned, Yuanlong's decision made him lose his foundation, but for the people of Xuzhou, it was a relief The military disaster, with Yuanlong's wisdom, should not be entangled in this, the reason for the entanglement is also because of guilt, and in the future, as a minister in the same hall, it will not be difficult to make up for this guilt, why is it so?"

"What the captain said is very true." Chen Deng nodded with a smile. Only when the captain got close did he realize that he was not someone who was difficult to get along with. Regardless of his knowledge and experience, he was the best choice. In fact, it would be much easier to compete for the world by accepting scholars.

However, appointing scholars to lead scholars will eventually face the situation of being overseen by scholars, so this Taiwei chose another way to suppress scholars. With his talent, it is not surprising that he would make such a choice.

In fact, Cao Cao's attitude towards the scholars is also using and suppressing. These real heroes are obviously not willing to be controlled by any person or force.

Lu Bu stayed in Guangling for a few days, and had a good conversation with Chen Deng. A few days later, Haixi, Quyang and other places were successively attacked. Lu Bu invited Chen Deng to join the army as a military advisor, and led his troops to take down Xiapi.

On the other hand, Cao Cao's plan to attack Xu Rong also failed. Xu Rong's control of the army was not as high as it was, or even more than that. In addition, there was no secret place in Xuzhou. It was very difficult to hide from Xu Rong's eyes. difficult.

Cao Ren, who was guarding Pengcheng, was shot and shattered, and Pengcheng County fell.

When Cao Cao heard the news of Cao Ren's death, he screamed and fainted, and was taken back to Xiapi by the generals. Hua Tuo wasted a lot of energy to rescue him.

"Zixiao..." Cao Cao opened his mouth and called Cao Ren, but halfway through, he stared blankly at the front without saying a word.

"My lord's condolences." Xiahou Dun sighed.

"When Zixiao dies, it will hurt me if I break my arm!" Cao Cao closed his eyes and said.

Although generals are inevitably killed in battle, Cao Ren is the only general in Cao's army who is on his own. Xiahou Dun, Xiahouyuan and Cao Cao have not been released to take charge of Cao Cao alone, but Cao Ren often leads troops alone to guard Cao Cao's side. Among Cao's army, Cao Ren The status can be said to be second only to Cao Cao.

Now that Cao Ren is dead, Cao Cao not only loses a general who can be on his own, but also loses a life-and-death brother who can be trusted. How can he not feel pain!

Xiahou Dun sighed and said nothing, just quietly accompanied Cao Cao.

After a long time, Cheng Yu hurried in, bowed to Cao Cao and said, "My lord, Lu Bu's army has arrived at the prime minister, and they will be coming to Xiapi in a few days."

Cao Cao nodded indifferently. Pengcheng was lost, and Guangling was also lost. He looked at Cheng Yu and said, "If there is any more news, Zhong De will say it straight."

"Here!" Cheng Yu sighed and said, "Hua Xiong of Qingzhou led his army to break Zang Ba's army at Jiwu Mountain a few days ago. Juxian fell, and Zang Ba led his troops to retreat to the East China Sea. Langya is afraid that he will not be able to keep it."

"If Langya loses, how can the East China Sea survive?" Cao Cao smiled bitterly. He thought that he would lose, but he never thought that he would lose so quickly. He thought that the nobles would help him, but in the end he thought too much.

In the dispute between the Central Plains nobility and Xuzhou nobility, Cao Cao took sides. He wanted to use the Central Plains nobility to suppress the Xuzhou nobility. If there was enough time, it would be feasible. Unfortunately, Lu Bu did not give himself too long to straighten Xuzhou, and gave it to the Xuzhou nobility. The opportunity to counterattack, resulting in a loss of the whole game!

At this moment, Cao Cao also understands where he is wrong, but he can't do anything. Even if he gives himself another chance, he will stand on Xuzhou's side and help the Xuzhou gentry to suppress the Central Plains gentry. Wouldn't there be a situation today?

No, it may not be able to please the Xuzhou gentry~www.wuxiamtl.com~, but it completely offends the Central Plains gentry who were originally loyal to him, and the end may be worse than now.

After all, Xuzhou was too small to accommodate so many nobles. Even if Cao Cao had the power to reach the sky, he couldn't adjust such a complicated relationship while actively preparing for battle.

Now that Lu Bu is surrounded by three sides, Donghai is still in his hands, but he has already lost his mind. Now Cao Cao has nowhere to go even if he wants to break out of the encirclement.

"Master..." Cheng Yu looked at Cao Cao, his lips moved, but was stopped by Cao Cao's hand.

"What Zhongde wants to say, Cao probably knows, but... don't say it." Cao Cao waved his hand.

ah~

Cheng Yu nodded, bowed to Cao Cao, turned to leave, and went to the military affairs on the hour.

Cao Cao looked at Xiahou Dun and said, "Prepare for the war, mobilize all the soldiers that can be fought, I want to fight Lu Bu again!"

As far as I can remember, when I fought against Lu Bu, I almost never got a bargain. More than 20 years ago, Lu Bu just rode around for a while, and he scared Cao Cao into the water. Later, every time Cao Cao felt that he could fight with him. At that time, Lü Bu would always come out to suppress it, so that Cao Cao could see the reality clearly, and even Lü Bu never came in person.

Now, Cao Cao has entered the Jedi and is powerless. He just wants to fight Lu Bu head-on, to avenge Cao Ren, and also to express the anger that he has accumulated over the years.

"Here!" Xiahou Dun nodded. After confirming that Cao Cao was all right, he got up and left. Although he was defeated now, because Cao Cao saw the opportunity early, his army was not damaged. , the morale is still there, and there is still the strength of a battle. In Yuan Shao's words, Cao Cao even has the confidence to make a comeback!
