Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 76 Opportunity

At sunset and dusk, the village not far away was empty with no people in sight. Farther away, there was a small town named Weishi. It was looted once before, and this was the second time. Originally, Lu Bu’s primary goal was not here. It was Yuanling, but the result was unsuccessful. Although it has not yet arrived at Wei's, but looking at the smoke from the fire in the distance, Lu Bu had already expected that Wei's gates would also be closed.

Sure enough, when a group of people came to Wei's city, looking at the four closed doors, everyone's heart sank. They couldn't remember how many times they failed. It seemed that overnight, all the surrounding cities were closed. With a tacit understanding, there were beacon towers everywhere outside the city, and when they saw Lu Bu, they set off beacon smoke.

No matter how fast the cavalry was, it could not be as fast as Wolf Smoke could deliver the news. Within a radius of a hundred miles, Lu Bu had not intercepted any food for three consecutive days, and the morale of the entire team had become somewhat low.

"General, I will take people to kill those who set off the smoke!" Dian Wei was very irritable, and now he wanted to kill people.

"It's useless." This time without Lu Bu's explanation, Hua Xiong shook his head first and said, "However, even if you tear down a few piles of firewood, you can quickly put them back together. As for killing people...you can't finish it."

The ghost knows how many secret sentries are hidden in the green mountains and green waters to watch them. Now that they have been discovered, they will naturally not wait there to die. When they kill them, they will have already left.

"Then what should we do now?" Dian Wei looked gloomy, this feeling of having nothing to do with reason was really frustrating.

Hua Xiong didn't answer. If he knew what to do, he would have told Lu Bu a long time ago.

"Go back to Xingyang!" He took a deep look at the Wei family in front of him. If he wanted to fight, he could. However, if the cavalry dismounted and attacked the city, there must be losses. Losing the elite cavalry on a meaningless small city, Lu Bu was naturally reluctant.

Fortunately, a lot of food and grass had been looted before, so Lu Bu didn't have to worry about food and grass for the time being.

Since we can't plunder, we should go back to the city to guard Xingyang. If we don't run back and forth every day for the food and grass, it should be no problem to use it for the first half of the year.

"Here!" Hua Xiong and Dian Wei replied a little weakly.

It was already late at night when everyone rode their horses back to Xingyang.

I always felt that there was something wrong, but Lu Bu couldn't tell what was wrong for a while. After sending all the soldiers back to the camp, Lu Bu came to the tower alone, looked at the dark world under the night, and looked out of the city. It was pitch black, and it was difficult to see other things. The night wind was blowing on Lu Bu, letting the oppressive and angry emotions in his chest slowly subside, thinking about the current situation.

The coalition forces used this method to suppress their ability to continue to obtain food and supplies through looting. In other words, the coalition forces still want to fight? Why are they?

Since it is impossible to plunder, it is better to take the supplies and go directly to Hulao Pass to camp, completely cutting off the supplies of the coalition forces. Given the terrain of Hulao Pass, although there are not many thousand troops, they will definitely be able to block the coalition forces there. In the city of Chenggao, the coalition forces were trapped to death.

"General." Gao Shun didn't know when he came to the tower, and found Lu Bu to salute.

"What's the matter?" Lu Bu turned around, glanced at Gao Shun, rubbed his stiff face, and asked.

"The general has been away for the past few days and has not paid attention to the news here. The coalition forces seem to have the intention of withdrawing their troops in the past few days. They have continuously transferred large quantities of supplies from Hulao Pass to Ao Cang. It seems that they are preparing to abandon Hulao." Gao Shun frowned.

"I want to withdraw at this time..." Lu Bu was sneering, but suddenly thought of something, he turned to Gao Shun and said, "So, the food and grass in Chenggao City are much less?"

"That should be the case." Gao Shun nodded: "But... I always feel that something is wrong with this matter. How could the coalition forces withdraw without reason?"

"Now Yanzhou, Xuzhou, and Yuzhou's grain roads have been cut off, and only Jizhou is left to supply grain. If you are that Han Fu, I'm afraid you can't be reconciled. Tao Qian and others should also be worried about the rear at this moment. How can they be united? Can it be dragged so far? The time is not easy!" Lu Bu has already judged this, a hundred thousand troops, people eat horses, no matter how rich Jizhou is, so much food is enough for anyone to feel distressed, Han Fu is not a sage, how can he Will you let the princes get what they want?

Gao Shun nodded. Lu Bu was right. At this time, the alliance of princes should have internal troubles.

"It's not too late!" After walking back and forth for a while, Lu Bu gritted his teeth and made a decision: "Notify the soldiers of the three armies to set off overnight. Before tomorrow morning, I will rush to Hulao Pass and set up camp. I will trap the 100,000 troops to death here. Hulaoguan!"

"Here!" Gao Shun bowed and agreed, and set up money to ring the bell to gather the soldiers.

The soldiers brought out by Lv Bu had been running around for a day and were about to rest, when they suddenly gathered them together, they were naturally dissatisfied, but when they heard that Lv Bu wanted to block the bandit army and wipe out the princes in the first battle, they were all overwhelmed again. With passion, the three armies of Xingyang City dispatched overnight, took all the grain, grass, and horses in the city, and rushed all the way to Hulao Pass, preparing for a battle to determine the fate, completely eradicate the troubles of these coalition forces, and they can go back to receive rewards.

A group of people walked to the Guo Pavilion like this, and a cool wind blew, which made Lu Bu's excited spirit slightly cool down. Looking at the dark night, he suddenly felt that this matter was a little too smooth, and the coalition forces would not think that such a big move would be possible. Can you hide it from yourself? Are they not worried about being blocked by themselves?

"Hua Xiong!" Lu Bu suddenly shouted.

"The last general is here!" Hearing the voice, Hua Xiong groped his way towards Lu Bu, saluted Lu Bu, "What orders does the general have?"

"You take 2,000 cavalry to garrison here, so as to be safe." Lu Bu looked at Hua Xiong, this Guoting was only about 30 miles away from Chenggao, if there were any accidents, this place could just meet him.

Although Lu Bu didn't think this was the enemy's strategy, it was better to have a complete preparation.

"Why is that?" Hua Xiong frowned. This was a great achievement, so he naturally didn't want to leave the team.

"I always feel that something is wrong. Keeping you here is also leaving me a way out." Lu Bu looked at Hua Xiong and said, "This is a military order!"

"Here!" Although Hua Xiong was dissatisfied, Lu Bu had already issued a military order, and he couldn't argue with Lu Bu any more, so he bid farewell to Lu Bu, leaving behind 2,000 troops and corresponding provisions, and then settled down at Guoting.

Lu Bu's vanguard had already arrived at Hulao Pass before sunrise, but they did not set up camp. According to the usual practice, they should go to the demonstration first. The enemy dare not leave the city, and then set up camp in an orderly manner. This time, Lu Bu plans to continue this practice. .
