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

Chapter 315 Chapter 314 Lin Mo entered Pengcheng and sent troops to aid Huainan

Outside Pengcheng, a group of thousands of cavalry stirred up rolling dust, and Xuan Jia stared with solemn eyes.

The two leaders, one with a silver spear and a white horse, a broad face and a majestic appearance, the other with a sword on his waist, and a handsome face with a bit of vicissitudes accumulated in the military career that is not suitable for his age.

Surprisingly, it was Zhao Yun and Lin Mo who were galloping back from Guanzhong.

Qianqi behind him is Lu Bu's trump card, Bingzhou Langqi.

Strictly speaking, this Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry is no longer the same group of people who started out following Lu Bu.

If you look carefully, you will find that some of them have the Zhou Zheng appearance of men from the Central Plains, the weather-beaten faces of frontier men, and the rugged faces with curly beards.

In fact, after the Central Plains War, the number of wolf cavalry in Bingzhou dropped sharply to about [-]. Later, Zhao Yun selected the most elite troops from Wuhuan's elite cavalry and injected them into them.

After winning the ten units in Guanzhong, he asked Ma Chao and Pang De to help, and then selected elites, finally expanding to a thousand-man team.

When these people are placed in the army, the lowest rank is also the team leader, and they are not qualified to join them regardless of their length.

Regardless of whether they can fight or not, whether it is the endurance of the sergeant or the horse, they are the best.

From Guanzhong to here, it was a long journey of thousands of miles. In addition, they could not cross the Central Plains. They had to transfer from Jizhou to Qingzhou and finally back to Xuzhou. In total, it was no less than [-] miles, but they only used half of it. Just months.

Traveling a hundred miles a day may not sound like much, but the intensity of traveling continuously is extremely demanding on both people and horses.

There is a saying that if Zhao Yun takes this Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, twelve days is theoretically enough. Lin Mo should be worried that he is not from the army and will not be able to withstand it.

Long before Lin Mo entered Xuzhou's territory, the station in Qingzhou had sent an express report, so Chen Gong was already waiting outside the city with a group of civil and military personnel.

It is said that there are no two days in the sky and two kings in the earth, but this does not seem to work in the Lulin Group. When Lin Mo comes back, he will enjoy the treatment of a master.

In fact, when other princes called this force, they had already changed it from Lu Jun to Lu Lin.

"Mr. Gongtai."

"Yunwen, Zilong! It's been two years since we last met, and I feel relieved to see you two as the same as before." We haven't seen each other for two years. Chen Gong's appearance has not changed much, but there is a little more white frost on the temples.

As the capital of Xuzhou's six counties, Pengcheng has jurisdiction over such a large state and county, and also has to consider security issues, which is a laborious task.

"Mr. Gongtai is also fine." The two brothers handed over with a tacit understanding.

"Come back, let's take a walk, there's a feast for the wind. I have a lot to say to you."

Since meeting Chen Gong, he has been smiling from ear to ear, holding each other hand in hand, and sighing: "In the past, I could only see from the battle reports how you Lin Yunwen outsmarted the two Yuan Dynasties, attacked Cao's army from across the state, and watched how Zhao Zilong was killed in the crowd. Tadun, Ping Wuhuan.

Oh, by the way, the two of you came back suddenly. It must be that the ten departments in Guanzhong have also been breached, right? "

There was nothing they could do. Lin Mo and his party were traveling so fast that they could catch up with the eight-hundred-mile emergency report. Therefore, before the successful report from Guanzhong came back, they arrived first. Chen Gong didn't even know what happened. matter.

Lin Mo pulled Chen Gong back and gasped: "Mr. Gongtai, the ten tribes have been defeated. I came back to deal with the siege in Huainan. However, before that, I can't drink your feast, I have to..."

"understand."

Chen Gong laughed loudly, "Miss is waiting for you at home, go quickly."

After exchanging glances, Lin Mo smiled, remounted his horse, and galloped towards the city.

"How about Zilong, if he doesn't go, let's drink first?" Chen Gong did not let go of Zhao Yun's hand.

But Zhao Yun hesitated to speak, and finally said with a smile: "Mr. Gongtai, I'm a little tired too. I want to go back and have a rest. How about tomorrow?"

"Strange."

Chen Gong let go of his hand and looked Zhao Yun up and down, "Zhao Zilong, who was so powerful in Xiao Guan and took the rank of general among the thousands of troops, was too tired from the journey to eat the feast. It seems that Yunwen's body is stronger than yours."

"Forgive me, forgive me." Zhao Yun scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Well, you must have your reasons, let's do it tomorrow." It was a bit disappointing, but Chen Gong couldn't do anything.

After Zhao Yun smiled knowingly, he also mounted the jade lion and led the Bingzhou Wolf Rider into the city.

In fact, no matter what time it is, cavalry are generally not allowed to enter the city. The army needs to be stationed outside the city. Important towns like Pengcheng have special camps outside.

Of course, ace troops like Bingzhou Langqi are not included in this list.

The door of the General's Mansion is open.

Lin Mo raised his eyes and looked at the 'Lu Mansion' hanging on the door plaque. He was in a daze. He was a little afraid to set foot and felt quite uneasy.

After thinking for a while, he strode in.

In the yard, a row of sweet-scented osmanthus trees were planted in the former open space. Judging from the luxuriance of the trees, they must have been transplanted later.

Under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, a toddler was waving a wooden halberd as a toy. Next to him, stood a man wearing dark red armor, with all his black hair coiled up, and a few pieces falling from his temples. The strands of hair were swaying in the wind. Under the sun, Lin Mo was fascinated by that side face.

Seeing someone coming in, the kid was not afraid. Instead, he looked directly at Lin Mo with curiosity in his eyes.

There was no dialogue as she imagined, nor did she run over to give him a bear hug. Lu Lingqi just looked deeply at the man in front of her and slowly moved towards him, as if it was very difficult to take even one step.

Their eyes met each other and they were speechless. Even when Xiao Guan faced Dian Wei and faced the desperate situation of separation, she did not shed a single tear. But at this moment, Lu Lingqi's eyes were red and tears were swirling.

A farewell was better than a wedding. Lin Mo had been away for two years after the wedding. Even the simplest look at each other could pierce the nerves deep in Lu Lingqi's hard heart.

The two embraced each other slowly.

"I've kept you waiting for too long." Lin Mo smelled the familiar orchid scent and felt at ease and comfortable.

He likes the scheming queen, Zhen Mi, who is the most beautiful in the world, and Qiao Qiao, who hurriedly bids farewell to the amazing years through poetry, but for Lu Lingqi, he has a warm love.

He doesn't need Da Qiao or Zhen Mi by his side. Even the scheming queen can leave, but Lu Lingqi can't leave.

"I know you like osmanthus trees, so you planted them all over the yard. Can you smell it? It smells good, right?" Lu Lingqi asked proudly.

"Same as you." The half-hearted joke made Lu Lingqi chuckle.

"Come on, Chuan'er, call daddy." After letting go of her hand, Lu Lingqi knelt down and hugged Xiao Chuan'er, encouraging her.

Xiaochuan'er's courage was probably inherited from his mother. He was not timid at all, and he called out "daddy" which was not very clear.

"good!"

Lin Mo picked up Xiao Chuan'er, kissed his chubby little face and said with a smile: "Ling'er, looks like you."

Xiao Chuan'er didn't recognize the affinity that came from his bloodline, and his little head was darting back and forth in Lin Mo's arms.

"How ridiculous." Lu Lingqi said helplessly.

"It's okay. When he grows up, let him learn the Lu family's halberd technique. From now on, we, father and son, will protect you."

Lu Lingqi's smiling eyes curved into crescent moons.

It seems that after having Xiao Chuan'er, she smiled more.

"Husband, let's eat first."

In the house, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law came out. Although the old father-in-law was not at home, the atmosphere was still very good.

By the way, I also told them what my old father-in-law thought.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't have any objections. They seemed to have long been accustomed to obeying the old father-in-law's instructions.

But Lu Lingqi chuckled and shook her head, "No, we met here, my home is here, I won't go anywhere. What's more, you are here, where can I go?"

Although Xuzhou's defense was excellent and it was the foundation for starting a business, there was no strategic frontier and it was too dangerous. Lin Mo still agreed with his father-in-law's idea of ​​letting his family go to Yecheng.

After all, the front of Yecheng is guarded by Liao Shen and Lao Yinhuo. With them here, there is no need to worry about the safety of the rear.

"Lingqi, it's better to listen to your father and go to Yecheng." Mother-in-law advised.

Lu Lingqi just looked at Lin Mo silently. Seeing him nodding, she finally relaxed and said, "Then we'll wait until you come back from Huainan, and then we'll go north together."

"Be good." Lin Mo came up with a plan to kill Xiao Chuan'er by touching his head.

After dinner, of course I didn't go to see Chen Gong. I hadn't seen him for two years. Whether the bed could withstand it or not was a question.

The lady was someone who had been here before, so she took Xiao Chuan'er away very considerately and left the rest of the time to the couple.

There is a long way to go to spread the branches and leaves.

When I woke up the next day, it was already past noon.

Or rather, he was woken up.

Chen Gong came to look for him personally.

Without thinking, he guessed that it was probably an urgent report from Huainan.After a simple wash, he followed Chen Gong out to the council hall without eating anything.

On the way, Chen Gong gave an overview of the situation in Anfeng.

Lin Mo frowned when he heard this.

During the initial battle with the ten tribes in Guanzhong, the letter asking for help already told Lu Su that it was best to retreat.

At first I thought his character was relatively calm, and I gave him a way out. In theory, he wouldn't fight to the death, but he didn't expect that he would be turned upside down.

He defeated Guan Yu twice, and he won very well.

But in the third battle, nearly [-] people were lost, and even the cavalry was defeated. Only a thousand people were left to ride out. This was terrible.

The information on these three battles had been sent to Lin Mo before he came to Xuzhou. The urgent report Chen Gong received today was that Lu Su decided to give it a go and face the Jiangdong army.

It sounds like [-] vs. [-] is an evenly matched battle. Even Hao Zhao is arranged to guard the rear, which can also contain Guan Yu, which is very appropriate.

But both Lin Mo and Chen Gong knew that they were already at a disadvantage in this battle.

This is an obvious tactic of encirclement and rescue, but you have to rescue, otherwise civil strife will easily break out.

Lin Mo had already anticipated this and gave this suggestion.

The two forces took action at the same time, and although Anfeng's troops and horses numbered [-], the elites were all taken away to attack the Northern Kingdom, and they were never returned.

And whether it was military skills or mental skills, Lu Su was not as ruthless as the old scumbag, so he would inevitably suffer.

Instead of waiting for a passive situation and being controlled by others, it is better to take the initiative to withdraw.

Of course, by that time it was actually too late.

The communication in this era was too slow, and there were no telephones. Letters came and went, and battles were fought several times.

What Lin Mo didn't expect was that Zhuge Liannu would appear on the battlefield.

As a time traveler, it's a bit of a slap in the face to be crushed technologically.

It was also because the battles had gone so smoothly in the past two years that Lin Mo actually developed a desire for success, so he put aside the technology tree.

Now it seems that it is necessary to climb.

When they arrived at the council hall, Zhao Yun and others were already in the hall, but they saw a familiar face.

"Young Master!" Xu Sheng bowed excitedly.

"Why are you here?" Lin Mo asked with a frown.

"fine."

Xu Sheng chuckled, "Xiao Guan, General Gao is watching. There will be no problem. I heard that the young master is back, so I rushed to Pengcheng last night."

Are you a general or a retainer? Lin Mo smiled helplessly and walked towards the most familiar handsome chair.

He stroked the bronze handrail, here is where the dream begins.

After sitting down, he took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Everyone should know the situation in Huainan. If you have any ideas, please tell me."

Here, the ones with the most weight are undoubtedly Chen Gong and Zhao Yun. Before they speak, others will not speak.

In fact, except for Xu Sheng who actually held the title of general, most of the people standing in the hall were just captains.

All the useful generals have been spread out, leaving only a few people.

Chen Gong spoke first, "Although this letter is an urgent report, it will take seven days at the fastest to be sent from Anfeng. In addition, the war in Jiujiang may also require the scouts to take a detour. At this time, the fighting has probably already begun. Rescue , it may not be too late.

In addition, Cao's troops in Qiao County and Taishan County have been ready to move. If he mobilizes Xiaoguan troops to advance, there is a risk of being attacked from both sides.

As for Guangling, Gan Ning suffered the disadvantage of going against the current and the wind, and was defeated by the Jiangdong Navy. Even if he mobilized troops and horses, he would only have [-] troops and no cavalry.

When we get our troops together and arrive at Anfeng, I'm afraid the war will be over. "

It sounded like Chen Gong was talking about the current situation rather than proposing a strategy, but Lin Mo understood that he was persuading him to abandon the three counties of Huainan. It would be best to order them to retreat first in order to attack later.

After waiting for a while, no one expressed his position. Xu Sheng stood up and said with his hands in his hands: "Master, if we can't mobilize [-] troops from Xiaoguan and Peicheng each, plus Guangling's troops, there will be [-] troops, and rush to Huainan." Let Sun Ce gain a foothold here."

It sounds like a good idea.

Each of these two places has an army of [-] to [-] people, so it would not be a big problem to recruit a few thousand troops.

But here, in addition to preventing Cao's army from suddenly attacking, it also involves the issue of coordinated operations.

The army in a place has formed its own tacit understanding through long-term running-in, which is crucial on the battlefield.

Although this piece of music that was pieced together temporarily will not be as vulnerable as the Yellow Turban Thief back then, there will definitely be problems with coordination.

This is also the method that Chen Gong has been unwilling to adopt.

"What do you think Zilong?" Zhao Yun seemed to be in a daze and didn't react at all.

"Zilong?" Xu Sheng pushed him, and only then did Zhao Yun react. After saying "Oh", he said blankly: "The general seconded the proposal."

No, what are you suggesting?

Not to mention Chen Gong and Xu Sheng, Lin Mo, who had been getting along day and night, was confused. It was the first time he saw him like this.

Forget it, God knows what he was thinking. Lin Mo looked at the map and analyzed it himself.

Chen Gong's words directly stated the pros and cons. Now the battle might have started. The troops and horses were temporarily formed for rescue. The food and grass were no problem. However, after the troops and horses arrived from all sides, they still had to be prepared and organized. There was not even a month left before and after. It can't be done.

After that, we have to rush to Huainan, which takes another fifteen to twenty days.

Calculating this, it would take 45 days at the earliest to arrive.

From Jiangdong's point of view, the essence of encirclement and reinforcements lies in the word "quick". They will not give Lu Su a chance to recuperate after setting up a stronghold in Huainan.

Even if there is no need to resort to tactics, with the advantage of waiting for work and the momentum, he will not hesitate to attack forcefully.

On the other hand, Lu Su had fought three battles with Guan Yu first, and his military strength must have been exhausted.

In terms of military generals, Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others are certainly top-notch, but Sun Ce and Tai Shi Ci can definitely compete with them.

What about the middle level?
On the Anfeng side, the middle-level generals are almost at a loss. In Jiangdong, there are Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Lu Meng, Ling Tong, Dong Xi, Jiang Qin, and Chen Wu, all of whom are good players.

Even if Lin Mo wants to go, he still has to bring Zhao Yun and Xu Sheng with him, and then call back Yu Jin and Gan Ning.

Of course, we still need to save him. Isn't that why he rushed back to Pengcheng thousands of miles away?

But Lin Mo was wondering if there was any way to delay this battle.

After a long time, Lin Mo, who had his whole back pressed against the handsome chair, slowly straightened up his waist and said in a deep voice: "First, according to Wen Xiang's words, we will allocate five thousand soldiers from Peicheng and Xiaoguan each, and then go to Guangling with my sword. , led Gan Ning and Yu Jin to lead eight thousand infantry and rushed to Pengcheng."

Chen Gong nodded and saw that he had made up his mind and said nothing more.

Xu Sheng held his hands in excitement and said, "I will be ordered to do so!"

"Furthermore, let the wind go and say that I have arrived at Pengcheng and will send troops to the west within five days to repel the Jiangdong troops. I hope this news can stabilize the soldiers on the front line and make Sun Ce feel afraid. "

"I'll do it right away." Chen Gong also said with a cupped hand.

Although this army was pieced together, Lin Mo was confident that his prestige in the army would allow the soldiers to integrate into it quickly.

What's more, there is also the God of War Zhao Zilong.

But there seems to be something wrong with this guy's condition.

"Zilong, come with me to Liulichang."

"Okay." Zhao Yun just responded without saying anything.

Zhuge's Liannu can be considered a great killing weapon.

It was his fault that he failed to make good use of the heavy crossbows that first arrived at the camp. Not to mention those heavy crossbows, even the ordinary crossbows had not been able to train an elite force due to accuracy issues.

This time, I can stay in Pengcheng for such a long time, just in time to study telescopes and sights.

Of course, even if these sights are finished and installed on heavy crossbows and ordinary crossbows, it will still take a long time to train if you want to improve the accuracy.

But it's definitely better than nothing.
