Chapter 974: Lu Bu is willing to borrow grain

Whether it was Zhao Yun or Lu Bu, they were all enjoying the battle and didn't care about the outcome of this fight.

From the first time in the Tiger Prison Pass, Lu Bu and Zhao Yun fought, and Zhao Yun was not Lu Bu's opponent at that time.

Later, Lu Bu went to Youzhou and fought with Zhao Yun again, at that time, it was not so easy for Lu Bu to defeat Zhao Yun.

But at that time, Lu Bu was still stronger than Zhao Yun.

And now, it is difficult for Lu Bu to defeat Zhao Yun. The strength of the two sides is now very close.

If you want to tell the winner, you can't tell the winner in a while.

Unless one party is negligent and exposes a huge flaw.

Although Zhao Yun and Lu Bu are going all out, although they are talking about fighting, they are both real battles.

It's just that the two of them fought for real strength, and they didn't use hidden arrows to kill.

Neither of them will use those sneak attack methods.

They want a real fight, and even if the sneak attack wins, it doesn't mean anything to them.

The two are not really fighting to the death.

They just enjoy the exhilarating fight.

Lu Bu didn't dare to go all out against Zhang Liao Gaoshun, because he was worried that he would really hurt them by mistake.

Only against Zhao Yun, who is on a par with him, can Lu Bu make a move without scruples.

Don't think about whether Zhao Yun can stop it.

Fang Tian's halberd has been non-stop, or stabbing or hooking or splitting.

That is, Zhao Yun, in order to block it.

If you change your strength, I'm afraid you would have died under Lu Bu's halberd.

The two fought for more than a hundred rounds before they stopped at the same time.

There is no winner or loser.

More than 100 rounds, it is the pinnacle of the two fights.

Although the two can continue to fight, if they continue, their physical strength will decrease, and the battle will not be as exciting as before.

The two enjoyed this feeling of fighting at the top of their game.

Later, I competed in endurance, but I was not interested.

Continuing is to see who has better endurance and who can last longer.

Now compared to endurance, Zhao Yun has a great advantage.

Not only because of his age, but also because of the spear he uses, which is flexible and changeable, but does not require much strength.

On the contrary, Lu Bu's Fang Tian painting halberd was very heavy.

"It's over."

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun and other military generals were a little unsatisfied.

Even Zhao Yun and Lu Bu's tired battle was of great help to them.

It's just a pity that Zhao Yun and Lu Bu don't want to continue.

After more than a hundred rounds, the fighting spirit of the two has reached its peak, and it will begin to decline later.

Lu Bu put away Fang Tian's painting halberd, and a group of people returned to the hall.

Immediately, a maid brought tea.

Lu Bu and Zhao Yun were steaming, picked up the teapot and drank half of the pot directly.

"Zilong, you came to Xuzhou this time, but is there anything on the general's side that you want me to help with?"

After fighting for more than 100 rounds, it was the happiest time for Lu Bu in Xuzhou in the past few years.

Back in the hall at this moment, Lu Bu also spoke directly.

Although he didn't dare to pack the ticket directly, as long as he could help, Lu Bu would not refuse.

Originally, Lu Bu also thought about sending troops to help Zhao Hui attack Cao Cao together.

However, his foundation in Xuzhou is not very stable after all.

He needs to take advantage of Liu Bei's departure to quickly control Xuzhou, so that after Liu Bei returns, he can't make waves.

But now, news has come that Liu Bei went to Jingzhou.

Lu Bu has already made people stare at Xiao Pei. He was still unsure whether Liu Bei would come back.

Zhao Yun glanced at Guo Jia and said, "Let Mr. Guo and the general talk about this matter." ”

The purpose of Zhao Yun's visit this time was to learn from Lu Bu and make Lu Bu happy.

Although Guo Jia told Chen Gong yesterday, Lu Bu was drunk last night, and when he woke up this morning and ate something, he immediately called Zhao Yun to discuss, and Chen Gong hadn't told Lu Bu yet.

Guo Jia said the words he said to Chen Gong last night to Lu Bu again.

"It's easy to borrow food." Lu Bu nodded directly.

"Ahem."

Chen Gong coughed and said, "Fengxiao, how much grain and grass does the general need?" ”

Xuzhou had fought with Cao Cao before, followed by Liu Bei and Lu Bu, and then fought with Yuan Shu.

Lu Bu's own current strength is only 100,000.

Nearly half of them were recruited during the period after Liu Bei left.

After Lu Bu seized Xuzhou from Liu Bei, he has always been short of grain and grass.

Before, it still relied on the supply of Yuan Shu.

Later, when he started a war with Yuan Shu, Lu Bu lost a supply of grain and grass.

At that time, he only had more than 50,000 troops.

Now that Liu Bei has left, Lu Bu's control over Xuzhou has improved, and the taxes collected have increased, so he has the ability to expand the army to 100,000.

As the number of soldiers increased, so did the grain and grass that Lu Bu needed.

If it's just some, there's naturally no problem, but if Zhao Hui wants a lot of grain and grass, it's easy to shake Lu Bu's foundation in Xuzhou.

Lu Bu's foundation in Xuzhou was already unstable.

If you are shaken, it is easy to have an accident.

Regardless of whether Zhao Hui and Lu Bu were allies or not, since Chen Gong was Lu Bu's advisor, he had to put Lu Bu's interests first.

No matter what it was, Lu Bu didn't see it, and he didn't think that he would have to help fill in the gaps.

"One hundred thousand stones." Guo Jia opened his mouth, and he was not polite at all.

Lu Bu was very happy at the moment, and he didn't think about it, so he waved his hand, ready to agree.

But Chen Gong's eyes were quick and he said, "100,000 stones is a bit much, I'm afraid I won't be able to get things together in a short time." ”

The specific matter of grain and grass, Lu Bu, the Xuzhou pastor, is not very clear in his heart.

But Chen Gong knew in his heart that Xuzhou couldn't get 100,000 stones of grain and grass.

But if he took out so much grain and grass to Zhao Hui in one go, those newly recruited soldiers by Lu Bu would probably be in chaos.

It will inevitably affect the food of these recruits, and many people will not have enough to eat.

Even the veterans' food had to be reduced a little bit in order to gather 100,000 stones to send to Zhao Hui.

Giving 100,000 stones of grain and grass at once had a great impact on Lu Bu and Xuzhou.

Chen Gong could not agree to Guo Jia's request.

Yesterday, I learned the purpose of this trip from Guo Jia's mouth, and Chen Gong took out the data of various granaries in Xuzhou overnight.

"At present, Xuzhou has the most, and only 50,000 stones can be taken out." Chen Gong also said bluntly.

This figure was derived from his research overnight. Absolutely no more.

Lu Bu's face was a little unsightly.

"Gongtai, we only have so much food and grass?"

Lu Bu rarely cared about these, but the total amount of grain and grass would still be reported to him once a month.

Lu Bu remembered that half a month ago, Chen Gong also told him that there was more grain and grass now than before.

"General, we have recruited tens of thousands of new soldiers, and those people are all going to eat, and if they are hungry, they will flee immediately the next day." Chen Gongdao.

Although Chen Gong cut it in half, he didn't directly refuse, which was already a good start.

"50,000 is too little, can you gather a little?" Guo Jiadao.

Unless it is these 50,000 stone grains and grass, all of them will be sent to Puyang one by one.

However, Chen Gong only gave 50,000 stones, and people ate horses along the way, and when they arrived in Puyang, they might know that there were 30,000 stones left.
