However, after the princes took control of the city, they also had many precautions against the aristocratic families. It is actually very difficult to influence the princes more through this method.

However, when the situation under the rule of the princes is unstable, or when there is a war, the advantage that Yuan Shu can occupy will be even greater.

In the early stage of the development of the vassals, Yuan Shu had a great advantage. Even if he failed in the attack on Xuzhou, it would be difficult to affect Yuan Shu's position among the vassals more.

Yuan Shu's ability to have the current Chen Palace among the princes has a lot to do with the influence of the Yuan family.

Now, if Yuan Shu's attack on Xuzhou can be successful, it will inevitably cause greater changes in the situation among the princes, and even more princes will be more cautious in the face of Yuan Shu after the victory.

Yuan Shu's reputation among the princes is actually not very good. If it is not because of the reputation of the Yuan family, it is simply impossible for Yuan Shu to achieve greater achievements when the princes are fighting just by relying on Yuan Shu's past actions. things.

The princes actually have a lot of understanding of such things, but who makes Yuan Shu's family strong enough to have a great influence on other families, no matter how much dissatisfaction they have in their hearts, they can only Choose to endure while waiting.

When Yuan Shu's strength among the princes became stronger, the influence it brought was too great, which was also the reason why many princes were willing to make friends with Yuan Shu.

Compared with Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao's reputation among the princes is still very good.

He is also a member of the Yuan family, although Yuan Shao has not received enough attention, his current achievements in Jizhou have something to do with Yuan Shao's reputation.

Now, as long as Yuan Shao can stabilize Jizhou and develop his own strength based on Jizhou, he will definitely be able to rise among the princes and become a powerful existence among the princes.

Although Yuan Shu had a great advantage in the early stage, when Yuan Shu failed against Lu Bu, his prestige among the princes dropped a lot. For this reason, Yuan Shu had a lot of anger. The reputation among the princes will be even louder.

The benefits of being famous are also obvious, more families and more talents can be used by him.

But now, the situation in Xuzhou and Yanzhou is very bad, which is a good opportunity for Yuan Shu. After experiencing the failure of the previous battle against the Xuzhou Army, Yuan Shu has a cautious attitude when leading the army to fight against the Xuzhou Army.

This kind of situation also makes the generals in the army quite satisfied. When the coach pays more attention to the enemy, he will not say that there will be more dangers on the battlefield, and he will even be able to achieve more in the process of fighting the enemy. big achievement.

These generals who followed Yuan Shu naturally hoped that Yuan Shu could achieve greater achievements in the process of fighting the enemy. It would be best if he could defeat Lu Bu, win the final victory, and take back what originally belonged to Lu Bu.

At that time, the power in Yuan Shu's hands will make more princes afraid, and they, the civil servants and generals who follow Yuan Shu, will get more benefits.

Yuan Shu turned his attention to Yang Hongdao: "From the perspective of long history, how can the current situation in Xuzhou be made more turbulent?"

Hearing this, Yang Hong fell into deep thought. Judging from the situation passed by Xuzhou, even though most of Xuzhou's army was gathered in Xiangxian County, Lu Bu still had a strong control over Xuzhou. It is obviously difficult to form a greater influence on Lu Bu.

However, since Yuan Shu raised such a question, Yang Hong, as an important adviser under Yuan Shu's command, had to think carefully.

Yan Xiang said, "My lord, from my subordinate's point of view, this matter is extremely simple."

Yuan Shu's eyes lit up when he heard the words, "The master has something to say, but it's okay to say it. If the strategy is right, there will be a lot of rewards."

Yan Xiang cupped his hands and said, "My lord, at present the Xuzhou army is gathered in Xiang County, and there are only a few thousand soldiers left in Pengcheng. The soldiers in Xuzhou are currently in turmoil, but there are more possibilities for Lu Bu to lead the Xuzhou army on the battlefield. Let some officials in Xuzhou have illusions about Lu Bu, as long as the lord sends troops to attack Pengcheng, Pengcheng will definitely be shaken."

Chapter 979

"It's nonsense, Pengcheng is high and deep, and it is the foundation of Lu Bu. Even if the Xuzhou army gathers in Xiangxian County, there are still thousands of elite soldiers staying in Pengcheng. It is not a simple matter to break through Pengcheng, and we If the army attacks Pengcheng, once the retreat is cut off for the Xuzhou army, the army will be in danger." Yang Hong scolded.

Yang Hong has a very high status in the army. Now that Yan Xiang stands up to offer advice and suggestions, if he can get Yuan Shu's attention, it will definitely affect him, so Yang Hong treats Yan Xiang coldly.

It is actually quite normal for such things to happen under the command of the princes. It is often not a simple matter for a counselor to get the attention of the monarch. He needs to be outstanding in strategy and have careful planning and careful planning in the face of war. Think about it, in this way, you can pay more attention to the monarch.

Yang Hong was able to get to where he is now, naturally he has put in a lot of hard work.

Yan Xiangdao: "What I said to deter Xuzhou is not that most of the soldiers attacked Pengcheng. At present, the Xuzhou cavalry is led by Lu Bu to the battlefields of the counties, and it is difficult to return in a short time. As long as the lord sends the cavalry to the outside of Pengcheng, why don't you worry about it?" Is the situation in Xuzhou even more turbulent?"

Yuan Shu nodded and said: "The master's words are reasonable. The Xuzhou cavalry marching for the commander of Lu Bu is an opportunity for our army. After the officials in Xuzhou see more of the power of our army, they will be more careful in their choices. You have to be careful, if these families don't know good from bad, they will naturally make their families pay a heavy price after I lead the army to break through Xuzhou."

Yuan Shu's words made the generals in the army quite excited. The generals in the army don't know much about strategy. They just need to follow the orders of the princes more. From Yan Xiang's words, they feel that is the probability of success.

Besides, leading the cavalry to Pengcheng is not to attack Pengcheng. The cavalry can have great destructive power when charging the enemy on the battlefield, but there are many shortcomings in terms of siege.

It is impossible to attack the enemy's city with cavalry, unless there is an internal response in the city, when the city gate opens and the cavalry swarms in, the victory of the war can be easily won.

It can be seen from Lu Bu's actions in Xuzhou that although Xuzhou is facing a joint attack from the princes, Lu Bu still attaches great importance to the safety of Pengcheng, and even left thousands of elite soldiers to guard the city. The soldiers and horses have not been mobilized, which can ensure the stability of Xuzhou to a large extent.

If there is a family secretly wanting to betray Lu Bu, more thinking is required. From Lu Bu's past behavior, it can be seen that when the family betrays, the soldiers in the army will not have the slightest thought. of hesitation.

Especially at such critical moments, the stability of Pengcheng will be of great help to the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army. If the time is unstable, the Xuzhou Army will inevitably have more in their hearts when facing the enemy. concerns.

Even the coach will be affected accordingly.

When the cavalry came to the city, what they wanted was to deter the enemy, so that the soldiers and civilians of Pengcheng could see that the cavalry under Yuan Shu had arrived and could launch an attack on Pengcheng at any time. Out of support for Yuan Shu's decision.

There is not much danger in such a move, and it can even make the general who commanded the cavalry team feel the prestige.

"The last general invites you to fight." Zhang Xun immediately came out and said.

He led the cavalry before and failed to win the battle against the enemy, but Zhang Xun's position in the army was greatly affected. Now that such an opportunity is in front of him, Zhang Xun will naturally not give up. It is to be able to do more when deterring Pengcheng. In this way, it will be easier to fight against the Xuzhou army.

Lv Bu has a great reputation among the princes. Relying on the combat effectiveness of the Xuzhou army, he gained a foothold among the princes. When the Xuzhou army charged the battlefield, it was very obvious what kind of influence it would bring. Therefore, when the princes attacked Xuzhou, The powerful combat effectiveness of the Xuzhou Army had to be taken into consideration.

If victory cannot be won in the war, it will be the biggest problem for the princes who attacked Xuzhou.

Yuan Shu led the army to attack Xuzhou before and failed, but lost a lot of cities under his rule. Even the Jingzhou army got a lot of cities from Yuzhou.

This kind of thing is the last thing the princes want to see. It is best for the lieutenant soldiers to win a hearty victory against the enemy. Only in this way can the results of the battle be maximized.

Lu Bu has made outstanding achievements in leading troops in combat, but it is not easy to influence the thoughts of some families in Xuzhou. When these families see that the situation is urgent, they will have other choices. This is also inevitable. matter.

What Yuan Shu needed at this time was to intimidate Xuzhou's soldiers and civilians, so that Xuzhou's civil servants and military generals could see that it was impossible to stop their own soldiers and horses during the battle just by relying on the fighting power of Xuzhou's army.

Hearing the words, other generals called for battle one after another. This is a very good opportunity. If they can lead the army to Pengcheng, it must be a great credit. The most important thing is that there is no more danger in such an action.

Commanding the cavalry to take a stroll around Xuzhou, maybe there will be more gains. Xuzhou is rich and well-known among the princes. If you allow the soldiers under your command to take the opportunity to plunder, the general in the army can still do such a thing.

Now Lu Bu is at a disadvantage when fighting against the enemy. Although he has won many victories in the war, it is almost impossible to reverse the situation on the battlefield just by virtue of such victories.

Lv Bu had an extremely powerful performance when facing the enemy. With such strength, Lv Bu could have more deterrence to the soldiers under the command of the princes, and even make the troops under the command of the princes more powerful when facing the Xuzhou army. careful.

When victory cannot be achieved on the battlefield, the ensuing consequences are often serious.

Lu Bu had a brave performance in the war, which was not a small shock to the generals under the command of the princes.

Now, the situation in Xuzhou is critical, which is the best opportunity for the princes to benefit from the war.

The army of the princes attacked Xuzhou in order to get more benefits from the war. If they couldn't even get such benefits, it was obviously impossible to gain more advantages in the battle against the enemy.

Chapter 980 Must make Pengcheng panic

Seeing the active performance of the generals in the army, Yuan Shu showed a satisfied smile. The generals in the army have a high fighting spirit when fighting against the enemy, which has a great influence on the generals in the army. Now they are fighting against the Xuzhou army. It is true that there are not small difficulties, but at this moment, Yuan Shu cannot give up lightly, and must win the battle against the Xuzhou army.

This battle is Yuan Shu's best chance. If he can't win against the Xuzhou Army, or let the Xuzhou Army have a chance to ease, it will have a great impact on Yuan Shu's future development, and even on the battlefield. There are more failures.

If you want to achieve greater achievements in war, you can only rely on strong strength. When the strength of the princes becomes stronger, they can have a higher status among the princes.

Now that the situation of the great Han has been decided, only when the strength of the princes becomes stronger can they have greater achievements on the battlefield.

Yuan Shu, as a powerful vassal, was able to make great achievements in battle after battle, which is enough to show that Lu Bu is extraordinary.

When fighting against the enemy army, if you want to win more victories, you need to have corresponding means. Even though Yuan Shu has a large number of soldiers, it is not that simple to win the battle against the Xuzhou army. of.

The performance of the Xuzhou army on the battlefield is obvious to all, but in this battle, Yuan Shu must defeat the Xuzhou army.

"Okay, I am very pleased with the bravery of the generals. The task of fighting against the Xuzhou army is arduous, but our army must win this confrontation. Rebels like Lu Bu exist among the princes. Among them is the disgrace of the princes of the Han Dynasty." Yuan Shu said loudly: "General Zhang Xun commanded three thousand cavalry to rush to Pengcheng, and we must make the people of Pengcheng panic."

"The subordinate understands." Zhang Xun clasped his fists and said.

After leaving the tent of the Chinese army, Zhang Xun immediately ordered the cavalry, and after preparing the supplies, he set off immediately to go to Pengcheng. Such a thing is very embarrassing. After success, there is credit. As for failure, it is almost impossible .

Just relying on the current situation of the Xuzhou Army, it is obviously impossible to do more after facing the arrival of one's own cavalry. The most likely thing that will happen is that the enemy trembles after the arrival of one's own cavalry.

Appreciating the heroic posture of the Xuzhou Army in the face of the attack of its own sturdy cavalry, Zhang Xun was quite satisfied.

"General Zhang led the cavalry to Pengcheng this time, and he will definitely be able to win the battle." Chen Lan stepped forward and said.

Hearing this, Zhang Xun showed a satisfied smile, "General Chen will surely gain a lot of credit by following this general, and then Ben will speak well for you in front of the lord."

"Thank you, General, thank you, General." Chen Lan thanked one after another.

Zhang Xun's position in the army cannot be shaken by ordinary generals. It can be seen more from the fact that Zhang Xun commanded the cavalry.

The cavalry is the most elite force in an army. If the cavalry cannot do more when fighting against the enemy, it will definitely have a great impact on the war.

The Xuzhou army is all over the world, and it can win one after another when fighting against the enemy. Isn't it because of the sharpness of the cavalry?

And Yuan Shu also has a lot of cavalry forces under his command. Relying on the strength of these cavalry, Yuan Shu can have more advantages when fighting against the princes, and even win the victory from the Xuzhou army. Lieutenant General Yuan Shujun was greatly encouraged.

Lu Bu's achievements among the princes are too dazzling. If he wants to win the battle against Lu Bu, he must have stronger strength.

Yuan Shu's side has a clear advantage in terms of military strength. With this advantage, Yuan Shu can win the battle against the Xuzhou Army more easily.

The generals in the army came forward to compliment him one after another. Zhang Xun was very satisfied with this situation.

It is good for Zhang Xun to have a status in the army, but when fighting against the enemy, he did not have a good record. If this operation is successful, Zhang Xun can change the embarrassing situation in the past. He raised his head in front of him.

In the past, Ji Ling's defeat in the battle against the Xuzhou Army greatly affected Ji Ling's prestige in the army. Even Yuan Shu didn't value Ji Ling as much as before.

Now that such a thing has fallen on Zhang Xun, Zhang Xun will naturally pay more attention to it. The failure with the Xuzhou cavalry last time made Zhang Xun very angry. Mistakes like this happen all the time.

Such a mistake is absolutely intolerable, and even Zhang Xun has some suspicions that there are generals in the army who secretly leaked the news to the Xuzhou army.

Now that Lu Bu's commander of the Xuzhou cavalry has left the battlefield, it is Zhang Xun's opportunity to show off in Pengcheng. Maybe because of this incident, his name can be made even more famous in Xuzhou.

Military generals still pay more attention to their own reputation. After having a good reputation, it will be easier to do some things.

Zhang Xun was a well-known general under Yuan Shu's tent, but on the battlefield in Xuzhou, such a reputation would obviously have little effect, because there were many fierce generals under Lu Bu's tent, even Lu Bu himself, Also a fighter.

If Zhang Xun is outstanding in martial arts, he can have greater achievements in fighting, which may make the lieutenants admire him even more, but Zhang Xun is not as good as Ji Ling in martial arts.

Even a fierce general like Ji Ling was unlucky against the Xuzhou army. If he chose to fight, it would definitely be dangerous.

It should be known that there are many fierce generals under Lu Bu's tent, and these generals have a fierce performance when fighting.

This war is very important to Yuan Shu. The generals who follow Yuan Shu can also gain more through the war. After following the monarch and making outstanding achievements, what they can get is more attention.

If you don't have a good record, it will be quite difficult to make the princes pay more attention and improve your status.

If Zhang Xun hadn't worked hard in training the cavalry, just the fact that Zhang Xun commanded the cavalry last time and failed to win the battle against the enemy would have made Zhang Xun lose face in front of Yuan Shu, and even There will be opportunities to use it.

Chapter 981: High Morale and Confidence

The most indispensable generals under the command of the princes are generals. If they cannot perform well on the battlefield, they will be eliminated by the princes.

The reality is often so cruel. Generals who cannot adapt to the battlefield are not needed by princes. If you want to get more attention from princes, you need to show corresponding value.

It's the same as the princes leading the army to fight on the battlefield. If the princes can't see the benefits after the battle, they will definitely be unwilling when facing the war. What kind of role does it play?

When Lv Bu took control of Xuzhou, why Yuan Shu supported Lv Bu was because the existence of Lv Bu was beneficial to Yuan Shu. When Lv Bu became stronger, Yuan Shu could have powerful allies.

It's just that Lu Bu's development speed was too fast, which caused Yuan Shu to have too much fear, and then he planned to embezzle Lu Bu. Unfortunately, such a plan failed. Failed.

Commanding the cavalry team to fight is what many generals want to do. The cavalry has a strong offensive ability when they charge the battlefield, which is enough to bring more shock and fear to the enemy. The situation in Xuzhou is still relatively tense now. However, as long as the cavalry in Yuan Shu's army came outside Pengcheng, it would definitely bring even greater shocks to Pengcheng.

In this battle, no matter what kind of efforts Lv Bu made on the battlefield, Lv Bu was at a disadvantage when fighting against the allied forces of the princes. Xuzhou had no special dangers to defend. against.

When Dong Zhuo controlled Luoyang in the past, there were hundreds of thousands of elites under his command, and there were natural dangers such as Sishui Pass and Hulao Pass, which were still broken by the coalition forces of the princes. Now that such things are placed on Lu Bu, he can have Did it happen by accident?

The fighting power of the Xuzhou army is good, but in such a confrontation, the princes are more optimistic about the coalition army of the princes. No matter how hard Lu Bu works, the inferior force makes it difficult for the Xuzhou army to win against the enemy.

If the Xuzhou army can regain its disadvantage in terms of the number of troops, there may be more possibilities to face the enemy, and rely on the advantages of the city to block the enemy's attack more.

However, Lu Bu's achievements on the battlefield are eye-catching. Under such circumstances, he still led the cavalry to take the initiative to attack, and inflicted heavy damage on the enemy in the confrontation. Many princes looked sideways.

If the same battle is put on them, can they have such a performance in the face of the joint attack of the princes? From such a battle, let the princes see the strength of the Xuzhou cavalry. If there is a war, After the Xuzhou cavalry appeared on the battlefield, they could often bring more shock to the enemy.

The failure of the Qingzhou Army is the best proof. It is good for Liu Bei and Kong Rong to see the opportunity to attack Xuzhou at this time. The key is how to do more when attacking Xuzhou. From previous wars, we can see What is most important is the strength of the Xuzhou Army. Even if the situation in Xuzhou is critical, when the cavalry led by Lu Bu appears on the battlefield in various counties, it is still not something the Qingzhou Army can stop.

The current failure of the Qingzhou Army has boosted the morale of Xuzhou, and even the officials in Xuzhou have more confidence in Lu Bu, because Lu Bu has always been invincible, no matter how powerful the enemy army is. , Lu Bu can always create miracles.

This time the war is a great threat to Xuzhou, but as long as Lu Bu is in the army, the lieutenants and soldiers will be able to explode with stronger combat effectiveness. After learning more about the Xuzhou army, you will find that, Lu Bu has put in so much effort for the development of Xuzhou army officers and men that ordinary princes dare to compare.

Under such circumstances, even if the Xuzhou army is at a disadvantage in numbers, they still dare to charge forward when facing the enemy, because in their belief, they have not flinched. To win through your own efforts.

Lu Bu's status among the princes was obtained by virtue of the victories in the war. The victories against the enemy army made Lu Bu's reputation among the princes even more resounding. There are more worries. If the Xuzhou army wins the battle, it will be a nightmare for the invading princes.

It is no secret among the princes what kind of means Lu Bu used to deal with the war before.

It is precisely because of Lu Bu's strong strength that he can gain a foothold among the princes and achieve his current development.
