Chapter 245 Expedition to Chen Liu

Chapter 245

"Ha ha, I have really gained a lot in Runan this time, but compared with the Wancheng you seized, what is this little wealth?" When Lv Bu saw Gu Aoshun coming, he couldn't help praising Gao Shunduo for what he had done.

"I heard that the prince went to Runan this time and fought a lot of hard battles, but such a scene did not have my share. It's really a pity." Seeing that everyone around Lv Bu was injured, Zhang Liao was still a little injured. Dian Wei said envied and helplessly.

"Ha ha, it's really thrilling in Runan this time. Do you know who we met? It's a pity that the legendary Jiangdong tiger Sun Jian can't get along with her. Seeing Dian Wei's envious face, Zang Ba couldn't help saying beside him. Unsurprisingly, this word aroused great interest from Dian Wei.

"Well, Sun Jian is not bad, isn't he? I don't think it will be the prince's opponent, but I really want to see it. Dian Wei hurriedly asked by Zang Ba.

"Yewell, it should be okay. Although I haven't done it with Sun Jian, this person can go through several moves in the hands of General Lv Bu and the title of Jiangdong Tiger. I don't think I will let you down." Zang Ba smiled and said to Dian Wei.

"Ha ha, that's good. I'm waiting to compete with Sun Jian here in Wancheng." I thought that when I heard it, I became more interested.

"General, now that I have taken Wancheng, I don't know what the general is going to do next?" On this side, Zang Ba quarreled with Dian Wei, but on the other side, Gao Shun asked about Lv Bu's future plans.

"This is a problem. What do you think of Zhang Liao?" Lv Bu did not answer Gao Shun directly, but asked Zhang Liao behind him.

"It is reasonable that now the princes will be allied and want to compete with the Prime Minister for the world. At this jux, it is better for the general to avoid it. Such a war will certainly cause a lot of casualties, which is not conducive to the general's preservation of strength." Zhang Liao said after thinking for a moment.

As soon as Zhang Liao said this, Lv Bu and Gao Shun understood as soon as they heard it. Although Zhang Liao did not say it clearly, he had already made it clear that he wanted to let Lv Bu preserve his strength.

"Gao Shun, what do you think?" After understanding Zhang Liao's meaning, Lv Bu did not speak directly, but turned to Gao Shun, who asked the question, "Since you have this question, I think you have thought about it for a long time. Let's talk about what you think?" Lv Bu looked at Gao Shun and knew that the reason why Gao Shun raised such a question must not be aimless, and he must have his purpose.

"General, Wancheng is connected to Hanzhong in the west and Luoyang in the north. It is difficult to connect Xiangyang in Jingzhou, and it is close to Runan in the east. It is the land of soldiers. It's better for a general to occupy Wancheng and try to develop again. Why should he be with the princes to ask Dong? Gao Shun looked at the generals around him and said what he thought.

"Gao Shun, you have such an idea, isn't it a day or two?" Lv Bu looked at Gao Shun and suddenly asked.

"This? I have had such an idea for a long time. Over the years, the general has made great achievements in fighting, but now, he still has no foothold. He is worried for the general and feels that it is not worth it for the general. Gao Shun said this, and the generals of Lv Bujun around him also looked at Lv Bu with hopeful eyes. Obviously, they already knew Gao Shun's idea.

"It seems that all the generals have the same thoughts as you." Lv Bu's eyes swept over the generals' faces, and he already knew that the generals, like Gao Shun, hoped that Lv Bu would establish his own power and have his own territory, and did not want Lv Bu to continue to rely on people.

"General forgives you. I have indeed said this idea to the generals, but this is only my opinion, and there is no other meaning. Please check it clearly." Hearing what Lv Bu said, Gao Shun's forehead suddenly sweated. You should know that if Lv Bu believes that Gao Shun has discussed with the generals before talking about this matter to Lv Bu and has been recognized by the generals, then Gao Shun's words at this time are likely to be regarded as forcing the palace. There must be only one highest leader in an army, and others have the leader that they should not have. The guidance will be regarded as the basis of rebellion, and this kind of thing is the most repulsive and ** of the top leader.

Gao Shun's accusation was naturally because Gao Shun saw the strength of it, so Gao Shun saw this. Naturally, there were also Lv Bu and Zhang Liao. When other generals heard this dialogue at this time, they were naturally a little confused.

"Hahaha, congratulations, general. It seems that the loyalty of the generals to the general is really commendable. After all, only true and loyal people can be so considerate of the general." Seeing Gao Shun's words like this, Zhang Liao quickly interrupted and changed the topic. If this topic continues, I'm afraid it will affect the feelings of the brothers.

"The meaning of the generals, I, Lv Bu, naturally understand that this Wancheng is indeed a strategic place. But you only see one thing. You should know that since the strategic location of Wancheng is important, it will definitely attract the snooping of others. Not to mention Yuan Shu, he will definitely not let us stay in Wancheng. Moreover, Wancheng was damaged by the Yellow Turban Army, which was seriously damaged, and it was not easy to recover in a short time. Let's take a look at the development of Wancheng. To the south is Jingzhou. Although the people in Jingzhou are rich and the country is strong, the strong people are extremely powerful. It is not something that you and I can stand on. Although the powerful force in the Central Plains has been looted, the allied forces of princes are in the Central Plains at this time. How can we achieve development? Besides, in Hanzhong, Zhang Lu in Hanzhong is a subordinate to religious control. Although the combat power is not strong, the warriors will be killed by religion, and it is difficult to compete with each other. Finally, let's talk about Luoyang in the north, where the princes fought against Dong Zhuo. If Dong Zhuo wins, he will definitely be angry with us because we didn't help him destroy the princes. If the princes win, will we be allowed to be peaceful in Wancheng? Therefore, although Wancheng is a strategic place, it is also a place of four wars. If we raise the flag in Wancheng, we will not preserve our strength, but destroy ourselves. Lv Bu analyzed it clearly, and when the generals heard it, they all understood that Wancheng was by no means a place to stay for a long time.

Lv Bu said these words. In fact, the most surprising thing was Gao Shun and Zhang Liao. These two people usually only saw Lv Bu's bravery, but they did not expect Lv Bu to have such a strategic vision.

"The general really woke up the dreamer and was taught by his subordinates." After Lv Bu's analysis, Gao Shun's admiration for Lv Bu has reached another level.

"General, since staying in Wancheng is not a long-term plan, what should we do next?" This time, it was not Gao Shun who asked the question, but turned into Zhang Liao on one side.

"Four words, watch the change. But I don't think we can stay in Wancheng for too long. Lu Bu said mysteriously.

"General Yuan Shu suffered such a big loss this time? Won't Yuan Shu take revenge on us? He has Sun Jian's help now. Wei Xu was still a little worried about Yuan Shu.

"Ha ha, of course, he is not such a generous person, and it will be a matter of time to avenge us. However, since so many of them didn't do anything about General Lv Bu this time, Yuan Shu also understood that with the strength of him and Sun Jian, even if they hit under Wancheng, they could only write more by hand. Gao Shun explained to Wei Xu with a smile.

"Yuan Shu will definitely go to Chen Liuhui League first, and then find an opportunity to fight with our army, but at that time, I'm afraid this battlefield will not be Wancheng." Zhang Liao also came up and said his guess.

Everyone was so talkative, but they thoroughly analyzed the future situation.

"Well, the war is coming. Let's have a good rest in Wancheng these days. Zhang Liao, you have to take good care of your injuries, and you will have to contribute in the future. Lv Bu interrupted the gossip of the generals with a smile, and finally told Zhang Liao.

In fact, the most fortunate thing about Lv Bu's trip to Runan was not that he had gained a lot of money, but that he really subdued Zhang Liao.

It's when Lv Bu is happy to celebrate the victory. In the palace far away in Luoyang, Dong Zhuo is losing his temper. These days, Dong Zhuo lived directly in the emperor's palace and enjoyed the emperor's life. So what is the military situation? As long as there is no outsider's participation, Dong Zhuo generally does not shy away from receiving his subordinates directly in the palace. Today, it was Niu Fu and Hua Xiong who escaped from Runan who were met by Dong Zhuo.

"Rice bucket, rice bucket, both of you are rice buckets. Not to mention that my 50,000 army was beaten by you, it was even defeated by a small Yuan Shu. Where did this make me put my face? It's all because of your incompetence that the princes dare to make a big alliance, dare to talk nonsense, and dare to be my enemy. The reason why Dong Zhuo was determined to attack Runan Yuanshu was to have the effect of killing chickens and warning monkeys, which made the princes afraid of Dong Zhuo's power. However, he did not expect to send Niu Fu and Hua Xiong to go. Instead of showing the military power of the Xiliang Army, he lost soldiers and generals, which made the princes underestimate Dong Zhuo.

"The incompetence of my subordinates has made the Prime Minister ashamed. I am willing to be the vanguard, fight against Chen Liu, and save the face of the Prime Minister. If I can't win, please cut my head." Seeing that Dong Zhuo was furious, Hua Xiong's blood also came up, and he actually took the initiative to invite the coalition of princes who were Chen Liu.

"Is that so? What do you think of Li Ru? Seeing Hua Xiong's courage is commendable, but in view of Hua Xiong's new defeat, Dong Zhuo was a little uncertain, so he asked Li Ru on one side.

"The strongest among the prime minister's princes is the Runan Yuan family, but the Yuan family is willing to fall and is divided into Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao. As far as I know, although the princes of this alliance are famous, most of them are just ordinary people, native chickens and dogs. There is no one who can truly beat General Huaxiong by force. Therefore, I think that if General Hua Xiong goes there in person, he will be able to show the prestige of our army. Li Ru is still very researching about the last defeat of Hua Xiong and Niu Fu. After analysis, Li Ru felt that Hua Xiong was absolutely more powerful than any general of various princes. As for Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he is naturally not among them. Because these two are not the generals of any princes, but soldiers, Li Ru naturally will not know their existence.
