Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

At the beginning of spring, Cao Cao received the news that Gao Shun and Xu Rong's troops had mobilized troops. Cao Cao was in a heavy heart. Although he had made a lot of preparations, when the two sides were about to fight, they still didn't have much confidence in their hearts.

However, what Cao Cao didn't expect was that Xiaqiu, Hong County and other places actually surrendered directly. Although the people stationed in this area are not Cao Cao's direct lineage, they are also the children of several noble families in the Central Plains. It is said that they are the group that should not surrender. But it dropped for the first time.

This made Cao Cao's rhythm a bit chaotic. At the same time, he also realized that the self-cultivation of the past few months was not because Lu Bu could no longer fight, but because Lu Bu deliberately left it out. Cao Cao was really not surprised at all when he saw that the scholars who were already powerless would do such a thing.

They were the ones who forced me to fight, and now that the situation has reversed, these people were the first to surrender.

Although he has already seen the essence of the gentry, until now, Cao Cao couldn't help but want to arrest and kill these people, and finally restrained himself. The most important thing at this time is to win a game and stabilize everyone's confidence. He had also made preparations before. In the Lianghuai area, with the help of the terrain, the Guanzhong Army's Vulcan Cannon 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 Chen Deng's surrender meant. It meant that the entire Xuzhou gentry would turn against Lu Bu.

Why?

Cao Cao didn't ask, there's no need to ask, it was the same reason as the Central Plains gentry who surrendered before, and Cao Cao even suspected that the surrender of these Central Plains gentry might be the misty eggs released by the Chen family. In fact, at this time, it is not surprising that anyone betrayed Cao Cao.

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

As for Guangling, the surrender of the Chen family did not mean that the gentry in the Central Plains also wanted to surrender. There were riots in many places in Guangling, and many people died, including local wealthy families attached to the Chen family.

There is no way, most of the gentry have not woken up from the glorious dream of the old era. Now they do not reject Lu Bu's origin, but they reject Lu Bu's system. If Lu Bu lets go, they will vote for Lu Bu without hesitation like the Chen family.

It's a pity that resistance is futile after all. With Gao Shun's troops entering Guangling, these gentry who escaped from the Central Plains could only continue to flee. Some fled to Xiapi to find Cao Cao, but more went to Dongling Pavilion Run away.

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

After learning that the Chen family had rebelled and Cao Cao retreated to Xiapi, the naval army sent by Sun Quan did not attack again, 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 clean 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 focused on escaping from his rule. He was either stupid or recognized himself as a sworn enemy. Lu Bu didn't want any of these two kinds of people very much.

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

"Here!" After Gao Shun took the order, he began to concentrate on occupying the important places in Guangling, but he didn't move to Dongling Pavilion, he just cleared the existing cities.

Lu Bu also met Chen Deng.

"My father suffered from wind and cold last winter, so he couldn't come to greet him. I hope the Taiwei will forgive me!" Chen Deng saluted Lu Bu.

"It's okay, since you're not feeling well, you should rest a lot." Lu Bu waved his hand, not paying much attention to it. As for helping Chen Gui with his diagnosis and treatment...he doesn't have that much free time, and it's not that cheap, not everyone has it The qualifications are for Lu Bu to personally diagnose, at least the Chen family does not have the qualifications.

"During Chang'an, Xuande often praised me for Yuanlong's talent, loyalty and bravery. They were all very comparable to others. At that time, Xuande was a little flattered. When I saw him today, I knew that what I said was true!" Lu Bu led Chen After entering the city, the two chatted happily along the way, and these words were sincere appreciation, not meant to be sarcastic.

But to Chen Deng's ears, it was quite unpleasant. They gave up Liu Bei on their own initiative, causing Liu Bei to lose Xuzhou before he showed his defeat. If Liu Bei spoke ill of him behind his back, Chen Deng would not feel too uncomfortable, but never From the beginning to the end, Liu Bei didn't say anything against him, but rather admired him, which made Chen Deng feel even more uncomfortable.

Seeing his depression, Lu Bu smiled and said: "Things in this world have nothing to do with right or wrong. For Xuande, Yuanlong's original decision did make him lose his foundation, but for the people of Xuzhou, it saved him from a disaster." The military disaster, with the wisdom of Yuanlong, shouldn't be entangled in this, the reason for the entanglement is because of guilt, in the future, it will not be difficult to make up for this guilt, why should it be so?"

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

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

In fact, Cao Cao's attitude towards the scholars was one-sided and one-sided. These real heroes are obviously unwilling to be controlled by anyone or power.

Lv Bu stayed in Guangling for a few days and had a good talk with Chen Deng. A few days later, Haixi, Quyang and other places were attacked one after another.

On the other hand, Cao Cao's plan to attack Xu Rong also failed. Xu Rong's control over the army was no worse than Gao Shun's, or even worse. In addition, there was no secret place in Xuzhou, and it was very difficult to hide it from Xu Rong's eyes. Disaster.

Cao Ren, who was guarding Pengcheng, was hit by a cannon, and his body was smashed to pieces, and Pengcheng County fell.

When Cao Cao heard the news of Cao Ren's death in battle, he covered his heart and yelled, and passed out immediately. He was taken back to Xiapi by the generals, and Hua Tuo had to use a lot of strength to wake him up.

"Zixiao..." Cao Cao opened his mouth and called Cao Ren, but halfway there, he stared blankly at the front and said nothing.

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

"When Zixiao dies, it's like breaking my arm, and it hurts me!" Cao Cao closed his eyes and said.

Although it is inevitable that generals will die on the battlefield, Cao Ren is the only general in the Cao army who is in charge of his own side. Neither Xiahou Dun nor Xiahou Yuan Cao Cao was released to take charge of his own side, but Cao Ren often leads troops alone to guard one side for Cao Cao. Among the Cao army, Cao Ren The status can be said to be second only to Cao Cao.

Now that Cao Ren dies, Cao Cao not only loses a general who can stand on his own, but also loses a trustworthy life and death brother, how can it not hurt him!

Xiahou Dun sighed and didn't speak any more, just quietly accompanied Cao Cao.

After a long time, Cheng Yu hurried in, bowed to Cao Cao, and said, "My lord, Lv Bu's army has arrived as Prime Minister, and troops will come to Xiapi soon."

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

"Here!" Cheng Yu sighed and said, "Hua Xiong of Qingzhou led an army to defeat Zang Ba's army in Jiwu Mountain a few days ago. Ju County fell, and Zang Ba led his troops to retreat to the East China Sea. Langya might not be able to hold on."

"Once Langya is lost, how can Donghai survive alone?" Cao Cao smiled wryly. He thought that he would lose, but he didn't expect to lose so quickly. He thought that the gentry would help him, but in the end he was thinking too much.

In the dispute between the nobles in the Central Plains and the nobles in Xuzhou, Cao Cao took sides. He originally wanted to use the nobles in the Central Plains to suppress the nobles in Xuzhou. If there is enough time, it is feasible. Unfortunately, Lu Bu did not give himself too long to straighten out Xuzhou. Opportunity to counterattack, resulting in a complete loss!

At this moment, Cao Cao also understood where he was wrong, but he was powerless. Even if he gave himself another chance, he would stand on Xuzhou's side and help the Xuzhou gentry suppress the Central Plains gentry, wouldn't there be today's situation?

No, that way it might not be able to please the Xuzhou gentry, but it completely offended the Central Plains gentry who were originally loyal to him, and the end may be even worse than it is now.

After all, Xuzhou is too small to accommodate so many gentry, and Cao Cao has no way to adjust such a complicated relationship when he is actively preparing for the war.

Now Lu Bu is encircled on three sides. Although the East China Sea is still in his hands, he has lost his mind. Now Cao Cao has nowhere to go even if he wants to break out of the encirclement.

"My lord..." Cheng Yu looked at Cao Cao and moved his lips, but Cao Cao stopped him with his hand.

"Cao Cao probably knows what Zhong De wants to say, but... don't say it." Cao Cao waved his hand.

Alas~

Cheng Yu nodded, saluted Cao Cao, turned and left, and went to do some military affairs.

Cao Cao looked at Xiahou Dun and said, "Prepare for battle, mobilize all available soldiers, I want to fight that Lu Bu again!"

In my memory, I fought with Lu Bu, and I almost never got a bargain. More than 20 years ago, Lu Bu just rode a horse for a while, and Cao Cao was scared by the horse. Later, every time when Cao Cao felt that he could fight From time to time, Lu Bu would always come out to suppress Cao Cao and let Cao Cao see the reality clearly, even Lu Bu never came in person.

Now, Cao Cao has been in a desperate situation, unable to return to heaven, he just wants to fight head-to-head with Lu Bu, to avenge Cao Ren, and also to vent the anger he has accumulated over the years.

"Here!" Xiahoudun nodded, and after confirming that Cao Cao was fine, he got up and left. Although he was defeated now, thanks to Cao Cao's early opportunity, his army was not damaged, and even ran from Guangling to Xiapi. , the morale is still there, and he still has the power to fight. If it were Yuan Shao, Cao Cao would even have the confidence to come back!

As for Lu Bu...
