Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

Although Bingzhou has been fighting wars in the past two years, its troops have been increasing in number thanks to its outstanding military capabilities and solid logistical foundation.

Outside the city of Jinyang, 20,000 soldiers of Qu Yi surrendered, and when driving out Cao's army in Henei, more than 6,000 ordinary soldiers and more than 2,000 elite soldiers were also captured. Among them, the ordinary soldiers were incorporated into the four armies, while the strong elite were arranged into the Golden Eagle Guard, under the command of Taishi Ci and Guan Hai. Now the Jingxing Road has completely become the world of Juyi Village.

Bingzhou now formed, in addition to the original three armies, the Hulie Army, numbering 10,000, under the command of Qu Yi. Within the Hulie Army was the Xiandeng Camp, commanded by Qu Shu.

In addition to these, there is also the Black Mountain garrison in the one county, two systems, which has been completely under the control of Bingzhou in recent years. It has a population of 10,000 and is led by Han Hao.

If it were not necessary, Lu Bu would not have used these Black Mountain troops. However, in addition to fighting, this trip to Jizhou also had an important task, which was to transport food to win over the hearts of the people. Therefore, Lu Bu mobilized 6,000 Black Mountain garrisons to follow him to Changshan State.

In addition, there are 10,000 people who surrendered from Duan Wei, more than 4,000 people who surrendered from Zhang Ji, plus the original Bingzhou army, if Juyi Village is included, the total force now has more than 80,000.

It is impossible to expand such a large number of troops in a short period of time without strong economic strength. After the development of Bingzhou in the past few years, its strength cannot be said to be strong, but it can barely support these people. The only problem is that the land is a little insufficient. The government's revenue and expenditure statistics this year show that the fiscal deficit has begun. Lu Bu still owes his wife a large sum of private money, so he must seize Jizhou as soon as possible to expand his territory.

On October 194, AD, Lu Bu officially dispatched troops to Jizhou with a total force of , advancing in three directions.

The first army was led by Qu Yi as the main general, with 10,000 Tiger and Fierce Troops, as well as Hua Xiong's 1,000 Wolf Cavalry, and Xu Shu as the military advisor. They marched from Fukou Xing in Shangdang to Sheguo County in Weijun.

The second group was led by Zhang Liao, the commander of Yanmen, who led 4,000 wolf cavalrymen, Hao Meng, who led 4,000 infantrymen, Han Hao, who led 6,000 Black Mountain farming soldiers, and 10,000 civilian laborers who were responsible for transporting grain. There was also a group of civil officials accompanying them. They marched from Jingxing to Changshan State in Jizhou.

The team's work is divided into two parts.

The first part is to take over the three counties of Changshan, Zhongshan and Anping. Those who voluntarily open the city and surrender will not have to use force. Those who do not resist will be dealt with by the army. Then it will be the job of the scholars to reorganize the officialdom, provide relief to the victims and win over the hearts of the people.

The second part was to resist the harassment from Gongsun Zan's army in the north.

According to the Youzhou Flying Eagle Team, Gongsun Zan also began to organize his troops and prepare to seize Jizhou, so the struggle between Lu Bu and Gongsun Zan had already begun at the moment of invading Jizhou.

The third force was led by Lu Bu himself, with Jia Xu as his military advisor, Xu Rong leading 5,000 Pinglu troops, Xu Huang and Cao Xing each leading 3,000 Pingkou troops, Han Lai leading 2,000 Feixiong troops, and Yu Fuluo leading 2,000 Xiongnu soldiers. They marched from Henei and Chaoge to Weijun, and attacked from the north and south together with Qu Yi.

The Bingzhou army was preparing to attack Jizhou with great momentum, which naturally attracted the attention of Taihang Zhang Yan and other Black Mountain bandits.

At this moment, Zhang Yan was summoning the leaders of the remaining Black Mountain bandits to discuss matters. Of course, this did not include Juyi Village. Since Juyi Village disobeyed Zhang Yan's orders and secretly sent troops to Jinyang last year, Zhang Yan realized that this bandit tribe had already defected to Lu Bu, or in other words, he was simply a spy planted by Lu Bu in Taihang.

However, even if he knew, Zhang Yan had no way to deal with Juyi Village, because he found that even without Lu Bu as his backer, he would not be a match for this village if he did not summon other bandits.

Zhang Yan admitted that he was not as good as the bandit army that was able to defeat Qu Yi!

"It seems that Yuan Shao is no longer a threat. Once Lu Bu takes over Jizhou, our Heishan will be completely surrounded by him. Trying to snatch food from Lu Bu's territory is like snatching food from a tiger's mouth. Tell me, what should we do in the future?" Zhang Yan asked helplessly, looking at the generals present.

The leaders looked at each other in silence. The atmosphere in the hall was unprecedentedly quiet.

Zhang Yan's eyes swept across everyone's faces, and he seemed to understand what everyone was thinking. He said, "If you have any thoughts, feel free to speak up. I won't blame you!"

"You really don't blame me?" The person who spoke was Qu Shuai Lei Gong, nicknamed Lei Gong because he had a very loud voice.

"Speak!" Zhang Yan said lightly.

Lei Gong cupped his hands and said, "Ever since Yuan Shao smote our Black Mountain forces that year, our strength has been greatly reduced. Boss, you've allied with Lü Bu and implemented that "one county, two systems" policy. Over the past two years, more and more bandits have chosen to join Lü Bu and become good people. Now, there's that traitor from Juyi Village. Even if we unite and mobilize all our forces, we're no match for Lü Bu. This year is also a year of disaster. We can't seize Bingzhou, and Jizhou is at war. I don't know how many bandits will starve to death. In my opinion, it's better to surrender to Lü Bu."

Zhang Yan looked at everyone and asked, "Do you all think the same?"

Most people nodded in agreement, but some wanted to continue being bandits. Qu Shuai, nicknamed Floating Cloud, stood up and objected, "Why surrender? I just want to be a bandit. I think it would be better to take advantage of Lü Bu's expedition to Jizhou to plunder Bingzhou. Bingzhou has been quite prosperous in the past two years. We don't need to seize Jinyang, but just find a few small counties to help us survive this famine."

"You only care about your head and not your feet. You care about your face but not your butt!"

Lei Gong questioned, "It's fun to rob you, but when Lü Bu comes back after defeating Yuan Shao, do you want to repeat the same mistakes as Yu Du and the others? Yuan Shao wiped out Yu Du and the others' camps one by one, not even sparing the elderly, the weak, women, and children. Lü Bu is even more brutal than Yuan Shao. If you dare to provoke him, I will wipe out the entire Black Mountain camp for you. You want to die, and I won't accompany you."

Commander Bai Que said, "Thunder God is right. Lü Bu's dominance is already established. Even our boss has suffered a great loss at his hands. I dare not touch his tiger's whiskers."

"As long as we can eat, it's fine to continue being farmers!"

"I heard that the friendly forces under the "One County, Two Systems" policy all have a pretty good life. Not only can they have food to eat, but the government also focuses on cultivating various skills for smart children, such as carpentry, medicine, blacksmithing, bricklaying, etc., so they can earn money with their skills in the future and don't have to work in the fields all their lives. Some people can go to private schools and even become officials in the future! Those who are physically strong can enter military academies, and their food and expenses are all paid for by the government. Bingzhou has many factories, and women can also work in factories to earn money..."

A well-informed person told everyone the benefits of joining Bingzhou, and the more they listened, the more they wanted to surrender.

Seeing that most of his bandits were willing to join Bingzhou, Zhang Yan sighed helplessly. At the beginning, he had promised the woman to implement the "one county, two systems" policy, thinking that only the bandits who participated would belong to Bingzhou. However, he did not expect that this system would have such a huge impact on the entire Heishan. His time as the leader of Heishan had come to an end!

"Since you all have a conscience, let me go and talk to Mrs. Lu Fengxian about how to accommodate my Black Mountain bandits!" Zhang Yan faced the reality and spoke.

Speaking of Lu Bu's wife, Lei Gong came up with some scientific knowledge. "I heard that Lu Bu's wife is the reincarnation of a fairy, specially sent to assist Lu Bu in achieving great things. Jinyang has built a temple for the Wu Qu Fairy. If we go to her and take refuge, if we can accomplish great things, will we also be able to achieve immortality after death?"

As he spoke, he slapped his thigh and said excitedly, "Maybe after I die, I, the Thunder God, can be crowned the Thunder God!"

"What about me, Bai Que?" Bai Que asked excitedly.

"Bird God!"

“I became the Bird God, but where’s the boss?

"Then you can be the Sparrow God, in charge of all the sparrows, and the boss can be the Bird God, in charge of all the birds in the world!"

"The Sparrow God is not bad. I can command all the sparrows in the world to steal corn for me. I don't ask for much. Each bird hands over ten grains of rice every day, and I give half to the boss. How many birds are there in the world? I'm rich..."

"My name is Liu Shi. Doesn't that mean I should be the Stone God, in charge of stones? No, no, from now on I want to be Liu Cai, the God of Wealth!"

"Then I'll change my name to Da Zao. I want to be the Kitchen God and have endless delicious food to eat!"

"My name is Lu Bu. I want to be the God of Cloth, with endless silks and satins to wear..."

Looking at his subordinates who were daydreaming, Zhang Yan's forehead darkened and he shouted, "That's enough, get out of here!"
