Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

200 Chapter 199
Before Lu Bu arrived in the plains, Yuan Shang started to leave. It is reasonable to say that the 15 army could not be pulled out of the city within half a month in terms of assembly, preparation, food transportation and other aspects, but Yuan Shang was able to do so in a few days It was done within a few days, which shows that this battle is not a temporary idea, but a long-planned plan.

In fact, as the judge who took over the post of Ju Shoujun, he has already been preparing for this battle. He knew that Yuan Tan would not be captured without a fight. Going north to Qingzhou, fortunately there were not many visitors, only 10.

Also thinking the same way, and Yuan Tan.

He felt a little uneasy that Lu Bu only brought [-] troops. He even wondered if he was victorious in the First Battle of the Central Plains, but his vitality was also severely damaged, and he could not spare any troops to support him.

Only 2 people come, but I have the nerve to ask me for [-] warriors, shameless!
Of course, everything has two sides, and there are advantages and disadvantages. Lu Bu only has [-] troops, so it will be easier to handle him in the future.

The minds of the Xin family brothers and Guo Tu also changed. There were too few people from Lu Bu, and they felt that their plans might have to be changed again.

Their original idea was that the three of them should work together to make great contributions, and Lu Bu turned against the host to take over the North Kingdom, and everyone was happy.

Now these 2 people
There is a high probability that it will become a victim of this northern civil war.

After all, Yuan Shang has an army of 15, and Yuan Tan has an army of [-]. Then let the three unparalleled advisers support Lu Bu with only [-] soldiers. If they are so smart, they will not make such a bet.

It's not a big problem, anyway, from their point of view, as long as it's not Yuan Shang who wins in the end, Yuan Tan and Lu Bu have both placed bets, and no one loses if they win.

But deep in my heart, I am more optimistic, and I am biased towards Yuan Tan.

Therefore, when Yuan Tan wanted to go out of the city fifty miles to meet him in order to show his duty as a landlord, both Guo Tu and the Xin family brothers refused.

If Lu Bu suddenly launched a attack, wouldn't it be that the sheep has entered the tiger's mouth? The possibility of this is actually very low, unless he has already formed an alliance with Yuan Shang.

So Yuan Tan obediently waited in Pingyuan County.

In fact, Guo Tu and the Xin family brothers are not entirely for Yuan Tan, but more for themselves.

Because at this stage, they will be more biased towards Yuan Tan, but they can't be sure who will stay in the Northland in the end. If you kill people indiscriminately now, how can we bet then?

The most ideal result is that when the situation becomes clearer and the future trend can be roughly predicted, they will submit the certificate, which is also in line with their usual style.

"Uncle, hahaha, I'm finally looking forward to you!" Yuan Tan can be regarded as a man who can bend and stretch. As a background of four generations and three generations, it is really amazing that Lu Bu can call this uncle. Easy.

At the east gate of Pingyuan County, Yuan Tan was wearing armor, Zhao Rui and Han Ju were guarding the left and right sides, and the Xin family brothers and Guo Tu followed, and there were many armored soldiers standing beside them, which is not insignificant.

On the other hand, there were only three people on Lu Bu's side, Lu Bu, Lin Mo, and Zhao Yun. As for the [-] troops, they were all stationed outside the city, led by Xu Sheng.

Is this the aura of Lu Bu among the people? The three of them dared to enter the city. Yuan Tan was a little surprised. He felt a little guilty when he thought about bringing thousands of cavalry to meet him.

Moreover, Yuan Tan himself is eight feet tall, which is considered burly, but in front of Lu Bu's wall-like physique, he is completely a size smaller. The most important thing is that the sense of oppression emanating from him makes people dare not directly See.

One must know that Yuan Tan had killed people on the battlefield, even when he stood in front of Lu Bu, he felt a sense of suffocation.

Of course, the reason for the three of them to enter the city was not based on their personal martial arts. In fact, it was also an attitude. In the final analysis, it was to earn enough trust.

Entering the Northland this time, there will definitely be a time to get along in private. If both sides are always on guard, then there is no need to form an alliance.

"I finally met my nephew today. He is a young hero with a noble air, which opened my eyes." Lu Bu nodded with a smile, then raised his eyes and looked around the city gate.

Not bad not bad, the military appearance is strict, the soldiers are mighty, and the standing position is also quite particular. No wonder I have been able to deal with me in Guang County for so long, it is indeed not a fool.

"Uncle has come from a long way, so I dare not neglect, please come to the city with my nephew, I have prepared a reception banquet for my uncle."

"Let's go!" Lu Bu waved his hand and walked side by side with Yuan Tan.

The seat of Qingzhou is Linzi in Qi State, but Yuan Tan dare not stay there. He has to come to the plain bordering Jizhou to prevent Yuan Shang from attacking suddenly.

The county magistrate of Pingyuan that Liu Bei supported at the beginning was the city in front of him. Lin Mo also paid attention to it. Of course, it is far inferior to Pengcheng, but it can be regarded as a very prosperous small county.

When you come to the banquet hall, the maids will quickly bring the wine and meat. Of course, five tripods and four gui are standard. After all, Lu Bu is a real general of the Quartet. Lin Moye also has the same decoration in front of him. The name of Lanlinghou It's not a good name.

But Zhao Yun felt a little wronged, and could only stand aside holding the bright silver gun.

"Uncle and father led an army to respond to my nephew's invitation, and came from a thousand miles away. My nephew will toast you first!"

When Yuan Tan said this, Zhao Rui, Han Ju, Guo Tu and others raised their glasses one after another, but they were blocked by Lu Bu's right hand.

"Nephew, for this first cup, I think it's better to respect Brother Benchu ​​first. He is a pillar of the imperial court. He traveled all over the world, raised the banner of righteousness, and gathered talented people to eliminate the country's thieves. To this day, there are countless others in the world. Admirers." Lu Bu said it with sincerity, and poured the wine in his cup on the ground.

Yuan Tan was a little taken aback. Lu Bu in front of him seemed to be a different person from what he had heard.

Anyway, this move really earned Yuan Tan's favor, and even Zhao Rui and Han Ju cast strange glances.

"Uncle Gao Yi, my nephew admires him."

Yuan Tan was a little choked up, and then looked at Lin Mo, "This is Lanlinghou, the unrivaled hero who is famous in the Central Plains."

"The general is ridiculously praised, I dare not take it." Lin Moqian smiled generously, and said nothing extra.

"I heard people say that Cao Cao once praised Marquis Lanling in front of his counselors. Lin Yunwen, a heavenly genius, can hold back millions of troops. Marquis Wen has such a good son-in-law. It must be a good story through the ages. You and I are about the same age. , so how about calling him a brother?"

In fact, Yuan Tan is 29 years old, and Da Lin Mo is eight years old, but it is not wrong to call him a brother, "Thank you, General."

"Come on, virtuous brother, let me offer you a toast. This time I have to rely on my virtuous brother's ingenious scheme to defeat Yuan Shang."

Although they were still fighting each other half a year ago, the atmosphere in the banquet hall was not as depressing as imagined. On the contrary, everyone seemed to be quite relaxed.

Lin Mo raised his wine glass, respected Kong Kong, and said modestly: "My father-in-law is the only one who is important in the military, and brother Yu is just helping me from the side."

"Hahaha."

After drinking a glass of wine, Yuan Tan laughed loudly, "Uncle Fang Tian painted a halberd in his hand, and a red rabbit and a BMW under his crotch. There are few opponents in the world. If he is a pioneer this time, he must be called Yuan Shang Pian Jia Wucun!"

This sounded like a compliment, but it revealed his purpose, to let Lu Bu's men act as the vanguard, and he led the central army to follow.

If this had been changed, Lu Bu would have drank his wine with a proud face after hearing these words, 'That is, that is! '

But, there are times when those who are close to the Mohist are not black. Weng and his son-in-law have joined hands in the past few years, and there have been many ups and downs, and their temperament has also begun to develop.

Moreover, Lu Bu seldom goes to the battlefield. This is also Lin Mo's meaning. I hope he can truly transform from the role of general to coach. If he doesn't come out easily, he will surely win.

Therefore, Yuan Tan's words did not stimulate him too much, but Weng and his son-in-law had talked before coming here, and they knew that bringing [-] troops this time would inevitably be underestimated. Winning sets your foot on the ground.

"Nephew, don't worry, since I'm here to help you regain the position of Lord of the Northern Kingdom with sincerity, my 2 people are willing to be your vanguard!"

Probably didn't expect Lu Bu to agree so happily, Yuan Tan couldn't react.

Guo Tu and the others on the side are also a little confused. Don't you ask for something? Is it possible that you really brought 2 people to serve as cannon fodder?
They even looked at Lin Mo subconsciously, wanting to find out the attitude of this Xuzhou bearer, but found that he kept his head down and did not speak from the beginning to the end, and his face was calm.

Usually in Xuzhou it is fine to be presumptuous and disrespectful, but not here. Lin Mo must let them remember that the commander of this army is Lu Bu.

After being dull for a while, Yuan Tan finally came to his senses, raised his wine glass and laughed quickly: "Well, thank you uncle, uncle, don't worry, all the food and grass are ready, if you need anything else, uncle can always ask, I don't know uncle When do you plan to leave?"

"Where is Yuan Shang?" Lu Bu was very calm.

"Come on!"

After a while with Yuan Tan's right hand, the sergeant would bring a pair of sheepskin maps and unfold them in front of Lu Bu. Yuan Tan stepped forward and pointed to the location of Qinghe County, and said, "The 3 vanguard troops have arrived at Jieqiao. It will take about ten days to arrive at the front line, and my nephew suggested that my uncle can lead the troops to camp here so that we can rest and wait for work.”

With a swipe of his right hand, Yuan Tan moved to the east from the boundary bridge for a section, and it was an open plain area. "This place is called Xiajin, and it is adjacent to Luoshui, a tributary of the Yangtze River in the south. The other three sides are wild plains, which are suitable for fighting on foot. I don't know what uncle wants."

Lu Bu raised his eyes and saw that the location Yuan Tan was pointing to was the adjoining area between Pingyuan County and Qinghe County, while Xiajin was located in the middle of the two. The open terrain was indeed quite suitable for combat.

Moreover, Yuan Shang has 15 troops, and Yuan Tan also has 2. Adding Lu Bu's own [-], it can be said that there is not much difference, and naturally he will not be picky about the terrain.

Lu Bu glanced at Lin Mo subconsciously, and seeing that he still had no reaction, he nodded and said, "Okay, two days later, I will go to Xiajin to station, and my nephew will follow closely."

"Uncle, don't worry, the army is almost ready, and it will take five days at most before we can leave the city."

The biggest problem was solved, and Yuan Tan was completely relieved. He had always been worried that Lu Bu would not be willing to be the vanguard, after all, this was a life-threatening job.

It now appears that the situation is advancing in its own favorable direction.

Therefore, this welcome banquet was naturally a very happy meal. The singers and dancers all came up, playing music and dancing.

"What if Yuan Shang really makes a move?"

On the way back, Lu Bu finally couldn't help asking, "We only have 2 people. Except for the [-] Bingzhou cavalry, the rest of the combat power is average."

"Master Yuezhang, don't worry, the first battle will definitely be fought, and we will definitely not lose."

Lin Mo's appearance of holding the wisdom pearl is Lu Bu's favorite. He said so, and he can rest assured a little bit, and said with a long breath: "That's good, but we need to save some military power. After all, apart from Yuan Shang, there are more There is Yuan Tan, I found out at today's banquet that he is smarter than I imagined, and the Northern Army is not all soft persimmons."

"Master Yuezhang is right."

Lin Mo glanced at him, and with such a judgment, he is more like a master and commander, "This is also my current headache. It is not difficult to clean up Yuan Shang, but it is rare that I have to find a way to clean them up together. gone."

After all, there were only 2 people on this trip. How to become the biggest beneficiary in the struggle of more than 20 people is not an easy task.

And if you are a little careless, this kind of person will be swallowed by Er Yuan, and you may even be buried in it. It is very dangerous to seek skin from a tiger.

Wealth is in danger
Although a few moves have been laid out, Lin Mo has not thought of a complete solution to this problem for the time being, so he can only take one step at a time.

The news of Lu Bu going north to Qingzhou has already spread, and he will definitely not be able to jump in a short time. Sima Yi feels that it is time to do something.

No matter how late, I'm afraid Cao Cao will not agree.

Therefore, he immediately contacted Sui Gu and informed him of the general situation.

To put it simply, General White Rabbit can no longer hesitate. Lu Bu has already gone to Qingzhou and is about to fight Yuan Shang. Naturally, Cao Cao can't bear it any longer.

If you want to go to Bingzhou, you must first win Hanoi. This is the simplest truth. General White Rabbit, are you going to fight to the death with Zhang Yang, or you are going to make decisions on your own?

However, if General White Rabbit is willing to make his own decisions, the Sima family will help with all our strength, including our financial resources and family power.

This idea did not come suddenly, as early as the first contact between the two, Sui Gu had been eager to move.

And at this point today, Lu Bu went to Qingzhou and fell into the quagmire of the three-party battle in the Northern Kingdom. Cao Cao would definitely not remain indifferent. If he continues to delay, he will only become a dead bone in the grave.

"Okay, let's do it tonight!"

Sui Gu bowed respectfully to Sima Yi, "I have already contacted my cronies and I will ask you to help me stabilize the situation in Hanoi after the matter is completed. After all, Mr. Zhong Da has been deeply supported by the generals in the army during this period of time."

Sima Yi smiled humbly, "Of course I will help the general."

Just because you want to drag me into the water and shake the tree, Sima Yi thinks that Suigu has brains, but not much.
