Chapter 670: Dong Zhuojun Joins the Battle
"Great, General Shang has already surrounded Manchester City, Kebi can be broken overnight, Xianbei is finished!"
Outside Wancheng, Lu Bu waved the battle report in his hand and said excitedly to his subordinates. Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others also showed joy, and the big tent was full of a happy atmosphere.
"General Shang is really a hero, an expedition of tens of thousands of miles, broke through Longcheng, the highest capital of Xianbei, and on the way back to the division, he eliminated more than 200,000 elite guardians in Xianbei, if it weren't for General Shang's bravery, we don't know how long we would have to fight!"
Lu Bu sat on the main seat, stretched out his hands on the table, and looked at the people under his command with a sigh.
"Lord, General Shang is naturally brave, but the lord is not bad. With less than a million troops, Budugen was pressed to death in the city around Wancheng, and without the lord to contain Budugen, General Shang would not have been so smooth. ”
"Hahaha, the sub-track (Song Xianzi, I made it up myself) is reasonable. The heroes of the world are only two people, the general and the general. Thinking of that Dong thief, he has tens of thousands of soldiers, but he is timid and afraid of things, and he does not dare to conquer in Xianbei, and he is blind and famous. Ding Jianyang of Youzhou, the dignified history of Youzhou Thorn, was so frightened that he wanted to run away because of the rampant thieves. ”
Saying that, Lu Bu hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "That Gongsun Bogui is still a character, barely half a hero, Zhang He Zhang Junyi, with a weak force, can resist the Kebi Neng Hu army, and can hit it hard, can also be regarded as half a hero." ”
Chen Gong glanced at Lu Bu with a little headache, and shook his head helplessly, Lu Bu trusted himself, and all government affairs were entrusted to him, and his authority was not much inferior to Deng Hongzhu in Pingzhou.
In addition, he is brave and unparalleled, and he loves nurses, which has changed the rumored trend of the dove and tiger, but he is quite like a wise man.
However, what worried Chen Gong the most was Lu Bu's unconcealed mouth and arrogant character.
As far as he said just now, he directly offended all the princes except Shang Ji, including Dong Zhuo, the strongest overlord, and Lu Zhi, who is currently Lu Bu's backer.
Maybe Lu Zhi is broad-minded and doesn't care about Lu Bu's remarks, but there are more cautious people in the world. Who knows if one day someone will be stabbed in the back because of these words?
Chen Gong coughed helplessly, got up and said: "The lord is a general who protects the Huns, and he is a noble and noble general, so he should be cautious in his words and deeds, so as not to misunderstand his colleagues." ”
Lu Bu's face suddenly stiffened when he heard this, he glanced at Chen Gong with some contempt, and forcibly defended: "It's all my own family here, it's nothing to talk about, and the public station doesn't have to worry." ”
"Please be careful in your words and deeds."
Chen Gong didn't eat this and continued to insist.
"Hey, you Chen Gongtai, you're so boring!" Lu Bu got up and sighed, then leaned over and bowed: "Sir's teachings, Bu should bear in mind, and in the future, you should be cautious in your words and deeds, and live up to your expectations." ”
Chen Gong bowed sideways, and then returned the salute: "The lord humbly accepts the advice, our army is about to prosper, and I should congratulate the lord!" ”
was stirred up by Chen Gong, and everyone lost the nature of chatting, and immediately shifted their attention to the battle situation.
I only heard Chen Gong said: "General Shang commanded properly, the Pingzhou army was brave and good at fighting, and surrounded Kebineng in Toumancheng." But we still need to understand that Kebineng still has at least five million troops under his command (Lu Bu's intelligence is inaccurate), while General Shang's is only three million. In addition, the king-level city of Toumancheng will hold on, and the Pingzhou army will not be able to win for a while, let alone help us, if we want to eliminate Budugen, we have to rely on ourselves! ”
After Chen Gong finished speaking, everyone suddenly fell silent, and after a while, they heard Lu Bu scold hatefully: "This city wall around ten thousand cities is also very high!" ”
Gao Shun and Zhang Liao couldn't help but nod when they heard this. Around Wancheng, a king-level city, the average height of the city wall is twenty-two zhang, and the specific thickness is unknown, but Lu Bu besieged the city for nearly a month, but there is no hope of breaking through it for the time being.
Of course, Lu Bu's helplessness is directly related to his lack of heavyweight siege equipment.
The strongest siege equipment in Lu Bu's hand was only the Burst Torch Stone Cart, and the number was only twenty, and this was sold to him by Shang Ji as an exception. And the strongest siege equipment that Lu Bujun can make by himself is only an improved stone throwing vehicle, which is not as powerful as an ordinary stone throwing vehicle!
And the improved stone-throwing car can forcibly smash the big city-level city wall when it reaches the sky, and it is helpless in the face of the giant city-level city wall, not to mention this king-level city wall.
With his own push, even if Pingzhou is equipped with a stronger burst torch stone car, it should not be able to break through Toumancheng in a short time, not to mention that there are still five million Xianbei troops in Toumancheng.
After calming down, Lu Bu found that the situation did not seem to be as good as expected. Even if Kebineng did not have the city wall as a backing, it would be difficult for Shang Ji to destroy Kebineng's main force in a short period of time with a force of three million.
What's more, Kebi can dare to start the war of national fortune, and naturally holds a powerful hole card in his hand.
"Lord, why don't we ask Duke Lu for help and ask Duke Lu to send heavy siege equipment to support? In addition, doesn't Lu Gong still have a digging battalion in his hands? Let's see if we can borrow it temporarily, with the help of the digging battalion, it will be much easier to break the city. ”
Zhang Liao, who had experienced the Battle of the Yellow Turban, stood up and proposed.
At present, in the entire Huaxia District, there are only two and a half of the strongest siege equipment such as the city-breaking dragon cannon, the two are Lu Zhi and Dong Zhuo, Lu Zhi inherited the elite army when the Yellow Turban was conquered, and there are also a hundred city-breaking dragon cannons.
And Dong Zhuo inherited the treasury of the Han Dynasty, and there were only a lot more high-grade siege equipment such as city-breaking dragon cannons than Lu Zhi. As for the half, it is a merchant who temporarily has the ability to manufacture city-breaking dragon cannons, but has not yet had time to implement them.
In addition, Lu Zhi also has a digging battalion in his hand, which made a miraculous achievement when he broke through the digging battalion in Guangzong City, and Zhang Liao, who was one of the witnesses of the war, naturally knew the role of the digging battalion.
"Asking Lu Gong for help is not a path, but his subordinates think that it is better not to expect too much. Lu Gong, Lu Gong is also difficult! Chen Gong sighed and said with a complicated expression.
Although Lu Zhi was good to Lu Bu and also supported him in his conquest of Xianbei, this support was limited. Handing over the strategically important heavy siege equipment and digging battalion to Lu Bu, even Lu Zhi did not dare to take this risk.
Chen Gong knew Lu Zhi's thoughts very well, and his first goal was to balance Dong Zhuo so that Dong Zhuo would not dare to act rashly. Once there was an accident with the heavy siege equipment and the digging battalion, Lu Zhi lost a trump card to contain Dong Zhuo, put yourself in his shoes, if Chen Gong was Lu Zhi, he would definitely not agree to Lu Bu's request.
"Well, how is this good? Bu Dugen, that old Wang Ba, hid in the city around ten thousand cities and refused to come out, and we couldn't get in, could it be that we kept surrounding us like this? ”
Lu Bu sighed and said a little unwillingly.
"Report! Emergency military intelligence! ”
As soon as Lu Bu's words fell, a hurried announcement came from outside.
"What?"
"Lord Qi, our army scouts have discovered a large-scale Han army in the southwest direction."
"Large-scale Han army? Southwest? Chen Gong frowned, jumped up with a thud, grabbed the herald's sleeve and asked, "Whose flag is the one hanging?" But 'Dong'? ”
"The military advisor is like a god, and the army is under the banner of the word 'Dong', and the handsome flag is the handsome flag of the word 'Li'!"
"Lee? Li Dao? This thief is not good! ”
"Hmph, what's good or not, pass the order, order all the people, let's go and meet this confidant of Dong Thief!" Lu Bu's face was full of murderous aura and roared angrily.
