Chapter 314 Xiliang Strategy
Chapter 314
"Anyway, let's go and have a look first." Seeing the unkind eyes of the generals, Lv Bu knew that such a stalemate could not solve any problems, so he interrupted the conversation of the generals and went down to Wuwei City first. He saw that a banner of Yan was hung on the tall Wuwei City.
"Hahaha, Lv Bu, you want to occupy Wuwei, but it's a pity that you came too late. Wuwei is already in the bag of my Lord Han Sui. If you know it, go back to your Longxi as soon as possible." Seeing Lv Bu's horse galloping, Yan Xing stood on the tower and said jokingly.
"General, are we going to attack the city now?" In the face of Yan Xing's arrogant remarks, Dian Wei came behind Lv Bu and whispered. At this time, it is meaningless to have an oral dispute with Yan Xing. Naturally, it is more practical to attack the city directly.
"Are you attacking the city now?" Lv Bu looked at Dian Wei, looked at the wolf horse behind him, and suddenly said to Zhang Liao, "Zhang Liao, what do you think we should do now?"
"I think that although our wolf rider is elite, it is not suitable for attacking the city, and the loss of the siege is too great." Zhang Liao saw Lv Bu asking and answered.
"It is indeed inappropriate to attack the city. Besides, we have not been delayed on the road all the way. Yan Xing can occupy Wuwei ahead of us, so in addition to Yan Xing's understanding of the terrain of Wuwei, I believe that Yan Xing must have only brought a few elite troops. General Ma Dai, this Wuwei County must be more than this city. Let's divide our troops to occupy other cities first. What do you think? Lv Bu pondered for a while, and suddenly turned to Ma Dai and said. Although there was an inquiring in his words, his attitude was obviously tough that Ma Dai could not refuse.
"General, don't worry, the little one will take the general to other places." With that, Ma Dai turned around and left with Lv Bu and the wolf.
"Is that how you left? Lv Bu, it turns out that you are also a handsome man who knows current affairs, hahaha. Seeing that Lv Bu led the troops to retreat, Yan Xing laughed loudly. He suffered a lot in Lv Bu's hands. Although time had changed, Yan Xing was also a vengeful person, which could make Lv Bu suffer. Yan Xing was still very happy.
With the help of Ma Dai, Lv Bu's soldiers and horses quickly received the West County and Zhangye counties west of Wuwei. These two counties have counted the westernmost county of Xiliang. Although Wuwei was controlled by Yan Xing early, the occupation of these two counties still made Lv Bu very happy. Anyway, Lv Bu now has it. Including the three counties in Longxi, this is a great harvest for Lv Bu, who is under the shelter of others.
"Ha ha, I didn't expect that our army has only been working for two days, and our army has already got two counties, West County and Zhangye. Such a harvest is really great." Looking at Zhangye, who had been occupied in front of him, Dian Wei's mouth was wide and he looked very satisfied.
"It's just the land of two counties. Let's make you happy." Seeing Dian Wei's smiling face, Lv Bu shook his head and smiled.
"General Lv Bu, now the territory controlled by our Ma family has been handed over to General Lv Bu, and I have also completed my mission. I will leave now." Seeing the defense of Zhangye and West County, which was completely received by Lv Bu's army, Ma Dai saluted Lv Bu and wanted to lead the troops away.
"What is General Ma Dai's words? How can it be said that the territory of the Ma family has been handed over to us? Isn't Wu Wei still in Yan Xing's hand? Seeing that Ma Dai wanted to leave, Lv Bu took a look at Zhang Liao. Zhang Liao immediately cared about Lv Bu's intention and said something to stop him.
"Yan Xing took advantage of our unpreparedness to attack Wuwei, which is something we didn't expect. It's just that our Ma family has withdrawn from Xiliang. Naturally, we can't touch Xiliang anymore." Seeing Zhang Liao talking about Wuwei, Ma Dai shirked. Obviously, he didn't want to be involved in Lv Bu and Han Sui's competition for Xiliang.
"General Ma Dai's words are bad. Yan Xing took Wuwei from your Ma family. Doesn't the Ma family want to take it back? When did the Ma family become a coward who couldn't fight back after being beaten? Zhang Liao looked at Ma Dai and suddenly said with an unbelievable face. It seems that the Ma family will die if they don't take back Wuwei.
"How can General Zhang Liao talk to General Ma Dai like this?" Seeing that Zhang Liao had provoked Ma Dai's competitive heart, Lv Bu said something to stop him. However, then he turned to Ma Dai and said, "I know very well that the Ma family wants to withdraw from Xiliang. It's just that he quits under the name of the Ma family in Xiliang. I'm afraid it will be underestimated by others. If someone thinks that the Ma family is defeated by Han Sui and even lost the main city, it will be bad to escape from Xiliang in a hurry." Lv Bu shook his head and said with a sigh. It means that it is very for the reputation of the Ma family.
"What does the general mean? I, Ma Dai, was ordered to hand over to the general. I just wanted to bring back these soldiers who guarded the city for the Ma family, and I can't participate in the competition for Xiliang. This is also what my general doesn't want to see. Although Ma Dai felt that what Lv Bu said was reasonable, Ma Dai was not stupid, and there was no way that Lv Bu and Zhang Liao would be used as guns by others.
"Lv Bu heard that the Ma family was famous in Xiliang and was deeply loved by the people in Xiliang. Now that Lv Bu received the territory of the Ma family, Han Sui interfered with it and even attacked the Wuwei of the Ma family, causing casualties of the Ma family. Unfortunately, the people of Xiliang are not clear about these things, so I want to ask General Ma Dai for help to clarify this matter to the people of Xiliang and show Han Sui's evil deeds to the world. Seeing that the time was ripe, Lv Bu finally said what he meant.
Ma Teng and Han Suijiu have accumulated a lot of power in Xiliang. Xiliang people only know Ma Teng Han Sui but do not know Lv Bu. If Lv Bu wants to fight with Han Sui with these ten thousand wolves, he has to get the support of the people of Xiliang, and the Ma family has an excellent reputation in Xiliang. Only by letting the Ma family come forward and say good words of Lv Bujun in front of the people, Lv Bu's army can be faster. Accepted by the people of Xiliang, even if you can't get the help of the people of Xiliang, at least you will not be rejected by the people, which is very important in the face of Han Sui. Therefore, Lv Bu wants to use Ma Dai's power to promote Lv Bu's image.
"It's easy to say that most of the Xiliang people who are friends with our Ma family live in Wuwei, but there are also many in Xijun and Zhangye. I immediately sent people to contact them, saying that General Lv Bu is a friend of our Ma family and will definitely take care of them like the Ma family in the future. What does General Lv Bu think?" Ma Dai heard the meaning of Lv Bu's words and agreed. In Ma Dai's opinion, these are just small things. As long as Lv Bu doesn't let him face Han Sui directly, these little favors will help nothing.
"Ha ha, General Ma Dai is really bold, but your letter is only sent to Xijun and Wuwei, but it is less. I hope that the general can send this letter not only to the scholars of Xijun and Zhangye, but also the Jincheng scholars of Wuwei and Han Sui will receive the letter." Lv Bu smiled and his eyes fell on Ma Dai's face. What Lv Bu wanted was not only Xijun and Zhangye, but the whole four counties of Xiliang.
"Ha ha, okay, I'll deal with this matter." Looking at Lv Bu with a smiling face in front of him, Ma Dai felt a trace of invisible pressure. This pressure does not come from the power of the surface but from his heart. Ma Dai is a smart person. Naturally, he understands the power of Lv Bu's move. If Lv Bu does not take advantage of the relationship cultivated by the Ma family in Xiliang for many years, he only relies on this ten thousand wolf riding. Xiliang's foothold is a very air disaster. Although the wolf horse has unparalleled combat power, it is a pity that it is only the combat effectiveness of the army that determines a war. If it is not recognized by the people of Xiliang, then the wolf riding deep into Xiliang will encounter a big air crash, let alone fighting. Of course, when attacking Xianbei a few days ago, Lv Bu gained a lot and brought a lot of supplies, but these things are still a little overstretched to support a war. As for the newly obtained Xijun and Zhangye, there are no material reserves. Ma Teng must go on an expedition to Chang'an, and there is no reason to save his hard-earned strategy. The materials are left to Lv Bu.
"General, should we also inform General Gao Shun to make more preparations?" Seeing Ma Dai leave, Zhang Liao opened his mouth to Lv Bu again.
The strength of the battle with Han Sui and Lv Bu is still a little overstretched. What's more, there are still two counties, West County and Zhangye, which have to send troops to garrison. Even if they start to recruit troops now, those newly recruited soldiers can only pretend to be a facade, and it is impossible to expect them to play a role. At this time, what Zhang Liao can think of is the troops under Gao Shun and Gao Shun.
"Do you mean to let Gao Shun send troops to raid Jincheng?" Looking at Zhang Liao's eyes, Lv Bu understood what Zhang Liao meant. Didn't Han Sui want to compete with Lv Bu for Xiliang? Didn't send troops to occupy Wuwei? As long as Lv Bu leads troops to surround Wuwei, Han Sui will definitely lead troops to support. At that time, Jincheng must be empty. At this time, as long as Gao Shun leads troops to raid Jincheng from Longxi, he may receive unexpected results.
"Ha ha, the general has already thought of it. I won't say much about the small one, but how to fight the battle on Wuwei's side? Please ask the general to give instructions. Seeing that Lv Bu was interested in his intention, Zhang Liao smiled and began to ask about Wu Wei.
"Zhang Liao, listen to the order, you lead three thousand wolves to guard the periphery of Wuwei, and don't let Yan Xing leave Wuwei. Zang Ba Cheng Lian, you two take a thousand wolves to stay in Xijun and Zhangye, and at the same time recruit troops to strengthen the strength of the two places. The three of you are led by Zhang Liao. If there is any situation, Zhang Liao should be the main one. Lv Bu already had a problem in his heart at this time. In the face of Han Sui, Lv Bu decided to hand over the affairs of Zhangye West County and Wuwei to Zhang Liao. Zhang Liao was a general. He not only knew how to fight, but also made some achievements in governing the country, so Lv Bu was relieved.
"General, you can rest assured that the matter here will be handed over to us, and we will ensure that there will be no mistakes." When Zhang Liao saw that Lv Bu had given him the two counties and Wuwei he had just got, he knew that Lv Bu valued him. Although he could only face the 5,000 cavalry of Yan Xing with 3,000 wolves, Zhang Liao said confidently.
"Well, why did the general let me guard the city again? Can I go to war? Zhang Liao was full of confidence in the characters explained by Lv Bu, but Zang Ba was immediately unhappy. militants like Zang Ba saw that there was a war to fight, and how could they be willing to stay in any county?
