Xiahou Dun's own method made Han Hao and Shi Huan, who always claimed to know their boss very well, a little confused.

After several years of contact, the two people's impression of Xiahou Dun was that he was good at farming.

Other than that it's pretty ordinary.

Could it be...

Could it be that...

Could it be that we have misunderstood the general?

Does our general really have something?

Well, it's possible.

That makes sense.

His own general was obviously inferior to Generals Cao Ren and Xiahou Yuan in every way, yet he was able to sit firmly on the throne of the prefect of Dongjun.

If I don’t have something, how can I gain the lord’s trust in me?

What the two didn't know was that Xiahou Dun's solution was very simple.

Sixty miles south of Puyang, on the north bank of the Pu River.

Xiahou Dun led 3,000 elite soldiers to the Pu River.

Afterwards, Xiahou Dun burned the bridge over the Pu River as quickly as possible.

Although the water in most rivers is relatively shallow in spring.

But the Pu River is different.

As a tributary of the Yellow River, the Pu River has abundant water resources.

Even if the enemy does not need boats to cross the Pu River, the water current will greatly reduce the speed at which the enemy can cross the river.

In this way, Xiahou Dun can do a lot of things.

"General, all three bridges have burned down."

Three military commanders came quickly to Xiahou Dun and reported.

"very good."

"When the enemy crosses the river, we will shoot arrows."

Xiahou Dun nodded with satisfaction and gave orders immediately.

"That's a good plan, General."

"Attack them when they are halfway across the river!"

"Wonderful!"

Upon hearing this, the three of them immediately flattered Xiahou Dun.

"What do you mean by half a chicken or a whole chicken?"

"Go quickly."

"Tell the soldiers to be vigilant in their surroundings and report immediately if they spot any enemy troops."

Xiahou Dun frowned and said unhappily.

What do you mean by attacking them when they are halfway across the river?

That's not what he was thinking at all.

Tap~

"grass!"

"Grass!"

"drive!"

“Minato!!”

Lü Bu, Hao Meng, Cao Xing, Cheng Lian, Wei Xu, Wei Yue, Song Xian, and Hou Cheng were at the forefront.

The military flags in the rear covered the sky and the weapons were cold and flashing.

Originally, Lu Bu did not have seven generals under his command, but after coming to Yanzhou, he discovered two capable fighters from the Yanzhou army.

So he asked them to come over.

These two people had no background themselves, and Zhang Miao and others did not think much of them, so they naturally did Lu Bu a favor.

"General, the Pu River is just ahead."

"I have already sent scouts to Pushui to investigate. I believe news will be reported soon."

Cheng Lian turned his head to look at Lu Bu and reported.

"Ok!"

Lu Bu nodded.

For such a small thing, do you still need Mr. Lu to praise you?

The army rushed all the way to the Pu River at lightning speed.

Soon, several scouts turned back from the front.

"General, after investigation, we found that all three bridges over the Pu River were burned down."

"We searched the river upstream and downstream, but found no bridge for the army to cross."

The scout reined in his horse and reported truthfully.

"what?"

"Damn it, it must be Xiahou Dun who did it."

"I didn't expect this guy to have something."

Lu Bu frowned, but he was not very angry.

This kind of thing is very common during marches.

In order to slow down the enemy's advance, the defending side would burn bridges, set up deer horns, etc.

"How deep is the water?"

Lu Bu thought for a moment and asked.

"Return to the general."

"The small ones inserted branches into the water, which was about a meter deep. There was a little mud and gravel on the river bottom, but it did not hinder the army from crossing the river."

The scout replied immediately.

"Well, it's not even as high as a horse's legs. At most, it will slow down the crossing."

"Keep marching."

Lu Bu nodded slightly, raised his Fang Tian Hua Ji, and ordered the army to continue moving forward.

About half an hour later, the army arrived at the south bank of the Pu River.

The riverbed, more than two meters wide, is bare, with only a little greenery on the river bank.

The river water was slightly turbid and flowed eastward.

There is a forest not far away, with a few green buds on the branches.

"You guys, go and scout out to the other side to see if there are any enemy troops nearby."

Lu Bu looked behind him and finally selected a few scouts.
