Chapter 780: General Lu Bu of Xuzhou
"Lord, there is news from Jiangdong that Lu Meng's brother-in-law Deng Dang has died of illness, and Lu Meng has replaced Deng Dang as Sima of other departments, but he is still unwilling to come to Jizhou."
"That's it."
In the conference hall, Zhao Hui and Guo Jia talked about things again.
Jia Xu and Xu Shu were also present.
Lu Meng is ambitious, but he is also unwilling to be subordinate. He had just been promoted to Sima of the other department, so he was naturally reluctant to leave Jiangdong. β
"After Sun Ce broke away from Yuan, he is now guarding against Yuan Shu while sending troops to attack the land of Wuyue and capture 100,000 people. All counties in Jiangdong have the meaning of being vassals. Jia Xu said.
"Sun Ce was still suppressed by Yuan Shu at the beginning, and this time he was separated from Yuan Shu, like a dragon entering the sea. No one in Jiangdong could suppress him. β
Zhao Hui didn't know if Sun Ce would be assassinated or not.
With Sun Ce's enterprising heart, if he lives one more year, he will be able to open up countless lands in Jiangdong.
However, even if Sun Ce is dead, there is a Sun Quan behind him, which is also not easy to deal with.
Although Sun Ce broke away from Yuan Shu, he would not choose Yuan Shu as his opponent now.
His current strength is not Yuan Shu's opponent.
Otherwise, he would not have deliberately waited until Yuan Shu became the emperor before suddenly giving Yuan Shu a knife.
Yuan Shu is now trapped inside and outside, and the first thing he has to face is Cao Cao and Liu Bei, so naturally he will not take the initiative to attack Sun Ce.
Even if he hated Sun Ce in his heart, Yuan Shu had to stabilize the north before he could free up his hands to clean up Sun Ce.
It's just that at that time, he was probably powerless to fight against Sun Ce.
"Hasn't Lu Bu made a statement yet?" Zhao Hui asked.
Yuan Shu brazenly proclaimed himself emperor and has become a public enemy of the world.
Although Zhao Hui is in the north, there is no handover with Yuan Shu now.
But Zhao Hui had already announced that he had drawn a line with Yuan Shu.
"Not yet." Jia Xu shook his head.
According to Zhao Hui's secret letter to Lu Bu, after Yuan Shu became emperor, Lu Bu would also give Yuan Shu a knife.
But Lu Bu doesn't have it now.
"What's the situation in Xuzhou?" Zhao Hui said.
"Xuzhou is now stable for the time being, but Lu Bu is not winning the hearts of the people."
The hearts of the people in Xuzhou are all on Liu Bei.
Although Liu Bei took over Xuzhou from Tao Qian, it was not a few years.
But when he stayed in Xuzhou before, he was already buying people's hearts.
Whether it is ordinary people or the family in Xuzhou, they all choose Liu Bei.
Even if Lu Bu now occupies Xuzhou, he can only keep Xuzhou from chaos.
Although Liu Bei was driven away, Lu Bu's strength had limited growth during this time.
The number of troops in his hands is less than 100,000. The real main force is only 50,000.
"Yuan Shu is still providing food and grass for Lu Bu." Jia Xu said an important piece of information.
Because Sun Ce suddenly inserted a knife, Yuan Shu did not dare to oppress Lu Bu now.
He didn't even dare to cut off the grain and grass, for fear that he had just cut off Lu Bu's grain and grass here, and Lu Bu immediately announced that he would come to exterminate him.
LΓΌ Bu is Yuan Shu's only ally now.
No matter how arrogant Yuan Shu was, he didn't think that he could fight against all the surrounding princes on his own.
"It seems that Lu Bu is reluctant to give up Yuan Shu's grain and grass." Guo Jiadao.
The one who is most familiar with Lu Bu here should be Jia Xu.
Although Zhao Hui and Lu Bu have a good relationship, they haven't been together for a long time after all.
And Jia Xu and Lu Bu were all Dong Zhuo's subordinates at the beginning.
For Lu Bu, Jia Xu must have studied it.
"Lu Bu shouldn't always support Yuan Shu." Zhao Hui said.
"Yuan Shu will definitely not provide Lu Bu with food and grass all the time."
Cao Cao and Liu Bei of Yanzhou have already sent troops.
At the same time, he also sent people to take Liu Xie's holy decree and asked Lu Bu to send troops to attack Yuan Shu.
And Yuan Shu's side also sent an envoy to ask Lu Bu to attack Cao Cao.
This time Yuan Shu sent Han Yin.
It was not the first time Han Yin had come to Xuzhou, but he had not been able to get a promise from Lu Bu.
Lu Bu's daughter, when will she marry Yuan Shu's son now, there is still no conclusion.
Han Yin also has bitterness and can't say it.
He didn't want to come to see Lu Bu, but after volunteering that time, Yuan Shu seemed to identify him.
But when he faced Lu Bu, he had no confidence at all.
"The lord has already proclaimed himself emperor, I hope that this time Lu Bu will bow his head."
Han Yin, who was anxious, came to see Lu Bu hard.
Lu Bu's momentum was too strong, standing in front of Lu Bu, Han Yin felt much more pressure than in front of Yuan Shu.
"Congratulations to Han Situ for his ascension. What is Lord Situ's business trip this time? β
Although Lu Bu was laughing, he felt very harsh in Han Yin's ears.
Without waiting for Han Yin to speak, Lu Bu put away his smile and said, "If Lord Situ came for the little girl, he can go back now, the little girl is seriously ill now, but he doesn't dare to send her to marry." β
It's no longer possible to use age to shirk it, but Lu Bu used his daughter's illness to shirk it.
It is impossible for Yuan Shu to let Lu Bu's daughter marry with illness.
Han Yin hurriedly shook his head, although he was now canonized as Situ by Yuan Shu, but when facing Lu Bu, he still didn't have any confidence.
"The general congratulates me on my promotion, but I also want to congratulate the general this time, Your Majesty has made the general a general, and the holy decree will be delivered in a few days." Han Yin smiled, but his smile was a little stiff.
Lu Bu didn't feel much joy.
He now just wants to get a little more grain and grass from Yuan Shu's hands, so that he can be with Yuan Shu.
Because of Zhao Hui's letter, Lu Bu didn't think that Yuan Shu could succeed.
If you want to say who can replace the Han world, Lu Bu believes that person is Zhao Hui, not the so-called Yuan Shu.
What is Yuan Shu's ability?
It's just relying on the remnants of the Yuan family.
If Yuan Shu was born in an ordinary family, Lu Bu didn't believe that Yuan Shu could still have his current achievements.
But some people, even if they are reincarnated, what can they do.
If it was Liu Xiefeng's general, Lu Bu would be very happy.
But Yuan Shu, forget it, there is no fluctuation in Lu Bu's heart.
Han Yin is Situ, what does he mean as a general.
Is it really possible to lead the world's soldiers and horses?
It's just a title.
Han Yin was even more uneasy in his heart, looking at Lu Bu, who had no expression, Han Yin felt that his mission this time would still fail.
If he fails this time, after he goes back, Yuan Shu will probably pull out his skin.
"General, now that Cao Cao and Liu Bei have raised troops to attack, it is time for us to wait for the king's Lu to serve the king."
Han Yin said as he looked at Lu Bu's face.
"General...... Are you willing to lead the army to resist Liu Bei and Cao Cao? β
"If the general is willing, His Majesty will immediately let someone escort 100,000 stones of grain and grass over, and the grain and grass will be supplied in time."
Han Yin was afraid that Lu Bu would refuse.
If it weren't for Han Yin's later sentence, Lu Bu would indeed refuse.
He now occupies Xuzhou, but Xuzhou has been fighting continuously in the past few years, and it has already been full of holes.
Grain and grass have always been the most important thing Lu Bu needs.
He doesn't even dare to expand his army now.
Although Yuan Shu did not cut off his grain and grass during this time, the supply was limited, and with the grain and grass collected in Xuzhou, it was barely enough for the army.
As long as Yuan Shu cut off Lu Bu's grain and grass now, Lu Bu's army would soon be in chaos.
