Back in Chenliu, it was the end of the year.

The snow was falling in the sky, and the whole city was enveloped.

In the general's palace, a brazier was lit.

After inspecting the city, Lu Bu came back, walked to the top and sat down, stretched out his hand to bake his stiff palm.

"Before I knew it, another year had passed."

Lu Bu couldn't help but sigh a little.

Before long, the generals and strategists under his command entered one after another, filling all the seats in the hall.

The generals sitting on the left are Xu Rong, Zhang Liao, Xu Huang, Huang Zhong, Cao Xing, and the newly descended Sun Ce and others, and the ones sitting on the right are mostly strategists, and Xiao Ji, Guo Jia, Xu Shu, and Yan Jian sit in turn.

"Last night, I already wrote a memora, reported to the imperial court, and will let the imperial court award you medals and promotions according to the merits you have made." Lu Bu spoke slowly, with a smile on his face. The brothers were all promoted through meritorious service, and he, as the lord, was happy for them.

As for himself, he is already a great Sima who has gathered power, and there is no seal, at most he can enjoy some rare playthings, brocade and silk.

Lu Bu didn't care about any of this.

"Thank you, lord!"

When all the generals heard this, they all had joy on their faces and hugged their fists to thank them.

Generals like Huang Zhong and Xu Huang, who came from humble backgrounds and had no family background, had red eyes, and the emotion in their hearts was difficult to describe for a while, so they were only glad that they had a good lord.

Lu Bu took everyone's expressions into his eyes and calmed down: "There is nothing to thank, everyone does things for the court, destroys thieves and kills enemies, these are the rewards you deserve." ”

This is true, not to mention the generals under his command, even he, the lord, puts his head on the waistband of his trousers at any time. Every big war is an alternation of life and death, and to survive, in addition to strength, there is also luck.

Take the pursuit of Yuan Shu as an example, almost crushing Yuan Shu along the way, but even so, nearly a thousand soldiers and horses were still broken.

This is fate, and no one can complain.

"Well, these things are put aside for now. Next, let's talk about your plans for the next year. After Lu Bu made a concluding speech, he shifted his gaze to Xiao Ji.

Xiao Ji understood, got up and walked to the hanging map, and explained in detail: "Everyone, please see, I have marked on the map the various forces that pose a threat to the lord. ”

The generals saw that there were many different sections outlined on the map.

Among them, with the Yangtze River as the boundary, there are four larger forces in the north: Gongsun Zan in Youzhou, Yuan Shao in Jizhou, Cao Cao in Yanzhou, and Tao Qian in Xuzhou, and Liu Biao in Jingxiang, Liu Yan in Yizhou, Yuan Shu in Huainan, and Shixie in Jiaozhou, which are also four forces.

"Then you should hurry up and say, what should we do next?" Cao Xing, who couldn't bear his temperament, shouted loudly.

A touch of disgust flashed in Xiao Ji's eyes, but his face was soothed with a smile: "General Cao, don't be impatient, and listen to me slowly." ”

Everyone in the hall knew that Cao Xing had this temper, so he didn't criticize him too much. For this rogue general who often waives the banner of 'Lu Bu', some people look down on him from the bottom of their hearts.

One has no courage, and the other has no strategy.

I don't even know a few big characters, and I don't look like a general all day long. In the eyes of others, they all felt that Cao Xian was sitting in the hall, not because of how many meritorious deeds he had made, but because of Lu Bu's importance to him.

In terms of qualifications, Cao Xing is the first.

Lu Bu is also extremely tolerant and tolerant of him.

"The several forces in the south are mostly recuperating and recuperating, and there is no threat to the lord at present. The lord should deal with and be careful, it should be these forces in the north. ”

Xiao Ji slid his finger to the north on the map and continued: "Not long ago, I received information that Gongsun Zhan had already stationed troops in Panhe, and Yuan Shao was also stationed at Jieqiao, and the big battle between the two sides seemed to be on the verge of breaking out. ”

Since Gongsun Zhan annexed Li Dao Guo Yan's troops, his strength has risen sharply again, and in the tentative confrontation with Yuan Shao's previous few combinations, he has won more than he has lost.

Lu Bu nodded thoughtfully, judging from his current business situation, it is not suitable to extend his hand to the south, only after the north is calmed down, is the best time to go south.

Moreover, Liu Biao, Liu Yan, Shi Xie and other generations in the south are all good at fortifying the city and defending themselves, as long as they don't take the initiative to trouble them, even if they are given the guts, they don't dare to come to Lu Bu's bad luck.

As for Yuan Shu, after more than half a year of fleeing, he was already seriously injured, and of the 100,000 soldiers and horses he brought, less than 10,000 fled back. It is said that after Yuan Shu fled back to Jiujiang in embarrassment, he was even more seriously ill, and he is still lying on the bed and can't get out of bed.

With such a clear example of Yuan Shu, who would be willing to take the initiative to provoke Lu Bu, the devil?

"North, who is the best to take the knife?" Holding his chin in his hands, Lu Bu's gaze locked on the north.

The generals also thought about it.

Xiao Ji obviously had an answer to this, and his fingers skillfully went to Yanzhou, and replied firmly: "Yanzhou, Cao Cao!" ”

"Why?"

Lu Bu's eyes fell on Xiao Ji, and he followed the words and asked: "Didn't Yuan Tu repeatedly persuade me not to move Yanzhou at the beginning, why do you let me take Yanzhou first?" ”

This time, that time!

Xiao Ji explained: "Now that Gongsun Chan and Yuan Shao are about to go to war, there is no need for the lord to intervene at all. It's better to take Yanzhou lightly first, and then sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, wait for Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao to lose both, and then take advantage of the situation to swallow the north! ”

In this way, hegemony can be achieved!

After hearing this, Lu Bu was full of pride in his heart, and his eyes flashed with light.

He asked the people in the hall, "What do you think?" ”

After the generals looked at each other, they all bowed their hands and said, "What the military master said is very good. ”

"Well, pass the order, let the officers and men of the three armies rest well in these two months. By the beginning of spring next year, we will continue our journey eastward! ”

Lu Bu made the final decision and said it with great certainty.

Then, Lu Bu said again: "In addition, there is another matter that needs to be sent to carry out the handling. ”

"Please make it clear." The generals clenched their fists and asked.

Lu Bu motioned for everyone to sit down, and gave a brief explanation by the way: "When I returned to the house today, I got news that there was a guy named Yan Baihu in Jiangdong, who had established an armed force of more than 10,000 people in the area of Wu County, and the local officials could not suppress it, so they asked the imperial court for help. So, who of you is willing to lead troops to quell the rebellion? ”

"Lord, the last general is willing to go!"

As soon as Lu Bu's words fell, Xu Rong, Huang Zhong, Zhang Liao, and Xu Huang all got up as fast as they could, and they all clenched their fists and begged for their lives.

If this wave of thieves can be calmed down, it is absolutely certain that the official will be promoted. The generals who are bent on making meritorious contributions are naturally unwilling to let go of this God-given opportunity.

In addition to Huang Zhong and the others, there was also a slightly green pheasant voice coming from the position at the end: "Please allow the lord to allow the last general to command the troops!" ”
