The emperor's words hit his weakness.

He had already tasted enough of the grief of being a bereaved dog, and he didn't want to be a lonely ghost after death.

Goodbye Lu Bu. "Your Majesty, the subject should fight to the death and prevent the Hulu from succeeding."

Liu Xie is very satisfied.

Defending the home and the country is the true source of the will to fight.

For people like Lu Bu, defending the country may be somewhat empty, but protecting the family is a real interest.

If you don't want to become a lonely wild dog, if you don't want your descendants to become real barbarians, then fight hard.

Liu Xie immediately summoned Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others to meet them one by one.

For Lu Bu, he didn't have too high expectations, after all, he was such a person.

But for Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others, he couldn't give up easily. This will be the main force for the revival of the Han Dynasty.

It is learned that Gao Shun is better at infantry combat than cavalry.Liu Xie suggested that Lu Bu could escort Gao Shun into Chengyi and assist Zhang Yang in defending the city.Lu Bu himself led elite cavalry to attack outside the city, cooperating inside and outside.

Lu Bu thought it was feasible.

Zhang Yang is his good friend, and Gao Shun helped Zhang Yang defend the city, which is not much different from fighting under his command.

Xun You also suggested that in order to get to Chengyi as soon as possible, Lu Bu should leave the family members of the soldiers in Meiji and take only the elite.At the same time, in order to make their war horses have enough horsepower, some horses can be selected from Meiji as spare horses.

Meiji lacks everything, except horses.

Lu Bu knew very well that Xun You's proposal was not only for the speed of the march, but also meant to keep the family members as hostages.

But he couldn't say no.

He has just arrived and has a bad reputation. Even if the emperor is willing to believe him, others may not be able to believe him.

Taking the family members of soldiers as hostages is the only way to win trust.

"Only His Majesty's order." Lu Bu bowed and accepted the order.

"Rescuing soldiers is like putting out a fire. Qing will go back and clean up before leaving early tomorrow morning."

-

Leaving the imperial tent and returning to his temporary camp, Lu Bu put on the red rabbit the vest given by the emperor.

Chitu is taller and more majestic than ordinary war horses, and wearing a gleaming vest, it looks even more mighty, like a heavenly horse descending from the earth.

"Wow—it's so pretty." Lu Xiaohuan stroked Chitu's neck, loving it. "Aon, I want it too."

It was rare for Lu Bu to respond to the baby girl's request.

The emperor bestows armor and knives, which shows sincerity.

It should be said that the current result is even better than he expected.

If it is not a trap, this will be his best chance to prove himself.

Hearing the commotion outside, Chen Gong also came out of the tent, seeing the vest on Chitu's body, his eyes lit up.

He had seen the armored cavalry in Yuan Shao's army, but compared with the vest in front of him, the vests worn by those armored cavalry were obviously inferior.

The emperor has such a strong strength?No wonder he dared to attack Meiji with [-] cavalry, and defeated the right of the Xiongnu in the first battle, and beheaded the head of Yan Luo.

Seeing Chen Gong, Lu Bu stepped forward to salute, and said sincerely, "Gongtai, thanks to your ingenious plan."

Chen Gong was not surprised at all. "General, cherish yourself."

"Gongtai, I have to leave early tomorrow morning, and the families of the soldiers will stay in Meiji. If you don't know how to ride a horse, don't join the army. Stay here and wait for me to come back."

Chen Gong looked at Lu Bu, not quite understanding what Lu Bu meant.

Lu Bu didn't speak, just looked at Chen Gong.

Chen Gong agreed to Lu Bu's request.

He felt that Lu Bu was a little abnormal today, and there was a rare seriousness in his expression that he couldn't refuse.

Besides, even if he wanted to leave, he was not in a hurry, and it wouldn't matter if he stayed in Meiji for an extra ten and a half months.If Lu Bu can win and return, there must be a gift, and he may be able to take some more belongings with him, and the road will be more comfortable.

With Chen Gong's promise, Lu Bu summoned the generals and ordered Qin Yi to stay behind to protect Chen Gong, Mrs. Wei and the families of the soldiers, and the others followed him to help Chengyi.

The generals returned to the camp, and after a long busy day, they selected more than [-] knights and [-] infantry.

In the evening of the same day, Liu Xie sent someone to deliver a thousand horses, some cattle, sheep and dry food.

Lu Bu and others traveled a long distance here, and they suffered a lot due to the shortage of supplies along the way.Now seeing the emperor sending so many supplies, especially knowing that the emperor is not rich, and the food is not richer than them every day, I feel even more grateful.

And the emperor's call to protect the home and the country aroused the blood in their hearts.

The Huns and Xianbei are ravaging their hometown. This battle is not only for the court, but also for themselves.

Different emotions spread in the tired bodies of the soldiers, like a fire, tempering their bodies and minds, and making their eyes look different.

Early the next morning, led by Lu Bu, the soldiers bid farewell to their families and rushed to Chengyi.

Later, Liu Xie also led his troops on the journey.

Chapter 310

Xun You came on horseback, stopped in front of Chen Gong's tent, reined in his mount, but did not dismount.

"Chen Gongtai." Xun You called out loudly.

Chen Gong went out of the tent and looked at Xun You, who was hovering on his horse, and was greatly surprised.

"Gongda, I don't think you have such a good riding skill." Chen Gong said half admiringly, half mockingly.

Xun You laughed. "There are many horses and mountains in northern Xinjiang, so it is easier to move around on horseback. From the emperor to the common people, everyone is used to riding on horses, and there are not many people using cars. Gongtai, you might as well try it. With this stirrup, you can ride on horseback." It's not difficult either."

As Xun You said, he raised his foot, showing the stirrup on his foot.

Chen Gong had seen stirrups on the horses of Lu Bu and others before, but he didn't take it seriously. Seeing Xun You's serious recommendation, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Gongda, it's just a harness."

Xun You shook his head. "The public platform is built with hundreds of trees, and when it first sprouts, it is just a bud, no different from a grass. Although the stirrup is simple, it can double the combat power of soldiers. How can the public platform turn a blind eye if it wants to prove the way? Your Majesty will go out for half a month sooner or a month later, and you will return after defeating the enemy. You may wish to wait here and look around. Whether you stay or not, it will be beneficial if you think about it."

Chen Gong bowed his hands in greeting. "May Gongda's wish come true, and I wish Gongda a smooth journey and success in no time."

Xun You bid farewell with his hands and kicked his horse away.

Looking at Xun You's vigorous back, Chen Gong was lost in thought for a moment.

He originally thought that Lu Bu was strange enough, but now it seemed that Xun You was even more strange.

Once a celebrity with a high crown and wide sleeves, now he has become a galloping knight.

-

Xun You caught up with the Son of Heaven, slowed down, and walked side by side with the Son of Heaven.

"Your Majesty, I just met Chen Gong."

Liu Xie turned to look at Xun You. "Would he like to stay?"

"It's hard to say now, but I believe that if you give him a little time, he should be able to see who is superior and who is inferior, and know where to go." Xun You smiled slightly, and said: "Chen Gong is very smart, but he is cautious, and he must think twice before doing things. Go back."

Liu Xie couldn't help laughing, and laughed.

Chen Gong's plan is slow, and his reputation is well-deserved.

"Gongda, the enemy is outnumbered, how can we defeat the enemy?"

Xun You said in response: "Introduce but not send, wait for work with ease."

Liu Xie's eyes flickered slightly, and he remained silent.

Xun You's words had rich meanings, he needed to digest them, and then discuss with Xun You when he had his own understanding.

With Ma Teng's Wanqi in the front, Chengyi City guarded by Zhang Yang on the side, and the three hundred elite cavalry led by Lu Bu harassing them at any time, there is a high probability that they can block the momentum of Fuluohan and Baimatong and drive them away. Stand in the Chengyi area.

If this is the case, he can find a favorable location, recharge his energy, and prepare for a decisive battle.

Only in this way, Ma Teng's loss may be relatively large.

"Ma Teng won't last long." Liu Xie rejected Xun You's proposal after careful consideration.

Killing people with a borrowed knife is not his main task now, nor is Ma Teng his main enemy.

Xun You insisted: "Your Majesty, this is a good opportunity to defeat the Xiongnu in one fell swoop, severely damage the main force of Xianbei, and cut off his right arm. Even if Ma Teng suffers losses, he will make up for it in the future. If you give up this opportunity, you will not be able to stabilize Henan. There are constant conflicts and endless troubles."

Liu Xie nodded in agreement, and said: "Because this battle is of great significance, we cannot let Ma Teng, who has doubts, bear it. I will now advance to Chengyi, and work together with Ma Teng and Zhang Yang to find opportunities to defeat the enemy."

The corner of Xun You's mouth twitched slightly. "Your Majesty has good plans, but don't act too hastily. Thousands of miles away, Jia Shizhong and Han Wenyue received the news, and then led their troops to rush to cut off the Huns and Xianbeis. It will take some time."

Liu Xie turned to look at Xun You. "Are you sure they're coming?"

"I'm not sure, but I believe that Jia Shizhong will not let go of this opportunity."

Liu Xie felt the same way.

With Jia Xu's ability, as long as he thinks about it, Baima Tong and Fu Luohan will lose to the bottom of their underwear, and there will be no return.

"Let's pass the letter to Jia Shizhong according to the plan of publicity."

"Wei." Pei Jun steered his horse aside and dismounted to draft the imperial edict.

-

Lu Bu rode his horse up a small slope.

Chengyi City was not far away. Thousands of Huns wandered outside the city with relaxed expressions. Many even took off their saddles and lay on the grass.

They either lured the enemy and wanted Zhang Yang to lead his troops to attack, or they were too relaxed and didn't pay attention to Zhang Yang at all.

Of course, this is also related to Lu Bu's coming too fast, and the killing of the scouts has not yet aroused their vigilance.

For three days, Lu Bu traveled day and night, marched nearly [-] miles in a row, killed seven or eight batches of Huns' scouts in a row, and quietly touched the vicinity.

As a native of Jiuyuan, he is so familiar with the terrain here that he is by no means comparable to the Huns or Xianbei.

This is his hometown, where he fought when he was young.

"It feels so good to go home." Wei Xuce followed up with a horse, and said with a smile: "This stirrup is really good. I have driven for three days in a row without feeling tired."

Lu Bu looked back at Wei Xu, and was about to speak when his eyes froze suddenly.

Among the accompanying knights, he saw a petite figure disappear in a flash.

"You asked Xiaohuan to follow?"

The smile on Wei Xu's face froze, and he said awkwardly: "When I found her, I had already left for a day. I don't feel relieved to let her go back alone."

"You, you will kill her sooner or later." Lu Bu said helplessly, "This is a battlefield, not a joke."

"Fengxian, Xiaohuan is your daughter, not someone else's daughter. She can't learn to be a female worker, and she can't be a lady like Mrs. Du..."

Lu Bu became furious, and lashed Wei Xu's shoulder with a horsewhip. "Shut your stinking mouth, will you die if you don't speak?" Turning around and going down the slope.

Wei Xu didn't take it seriously, he laughed twice, turned the horse's head, and followed.

Lu Bu rode his horse down the slope, stood in front of the soldiers, and coughed.

"Come out, how long do you want to hide?"

After a while, Lu Xiaohuan in uniform rode out from the crowd and came to Lu Bu, laughing with him.

"Aon."

Lu Bu glared at him, turned around and waved to Gao Shun. "Ziping, I've given you a mission to take my daughter into the city."

Gao Shun bowed his hands and saluted.

"Ah Weng..." Lu Xiaohuan was in a hurry, just as he yelled, Lu Bu gave him a stare and was startled, and swallowed the rest of the words.

In an instant, she felt that Lu Bu's eyes today were different from those in the past.If you keep pestering, you will probably get a beating.

She was not afraid of being beaten, but it was too embarrassing to be beaten in front of so many people.

Lu Bu slowed down his tone, his majestic eyes swept over everyone's faces.

"In this battle, we will face tens of thousands of Xianbei people and Huns. Everyone may go and never return. But here..." Lu Bu's voice was not loud, but it had a soul-stirring power , resoundingly. "It's our hometown. If we don't fight to the death, who else can we count on?"

"Ah Weng, I am also from Jiuyuan." Lu Xiaohuan shouted.

"Yes, you are also from Jiuyuan, but you are a woman, and you are not yet an adult." Lu Bu said loudly: "Although the women in Jiuyuan are not ordinary women, there are no adult men who have not fought. Let the underage women go to battle first." Xiaohuan, follow Gao Ziping to learn how to fight. If I can't survive this battle, you will inherit Naifu's legacy and continue to fight. Do you understand?"
