Zhou Yu understood what Chen Chu thought, Chen Chu hoped to unify the world as soon as possible, but although the policy of absorbing displaced people was very good in the long run, it was more than worth the loss in the short term. Zhou Yu said to Chen Chu: "Unifying the world is a painstaking and long process, and the lord must not be in a hurry.

Chen Chu smiled at Zhou Yu, "I understand, Gongjin, you don't have to worry." After

a pause, "Just follow Gong Jin's suggestion." Gong Jin, later, you will send a letter to Sanzhou in my name, saying three things, one is to select qualified soldiers to supplement the battle losses, and at the same time form a new legion, which does not have to be limited to the Han nationality, but can also be selected from various ethnic groups, and this matter will be handled by Zijing; The second is to order the armies to reclaim as much land as possible, provided that the daily vigilance tasks are not affected; The third is to send orders to all counties and counties to absorb displaced people from all over the country, and at the same time use the displaced people to reclaim the fields, and it is necessary to emphasize that the displaced people must be treated well, and if there are violators, they will be severely punished, and Tian Feng will be responsible for this matter.

"Gong Jin, do you think there is anything else that needs to be added?"

Zhou Yu pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "The lord is wise, there is nothing to add below." Chen Chu smiled.

"My lord, there is one more thing." Zhou Yu hugged his fist towards Chen Chu.

Chen Chu nodded and motioned for Zhou Yu to continue.

Zhou Yu said: "Now that Cao Jun has completely retreated to Fan County, Dongping County and Shanyang County, Yanzhou is completely empty. Our army only has tens of thousands of troops in Lu Bu and Ma Chao's troops in Yanzhou, while Yuan Shao's troops gathered in Dingtao have 300,000 people, and our army must immediately send troops south to firmly control Yanzhou in our hands!

Chen Chu frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and then ordered: "Order Yide to lead the First Army to Yanzhou immediately, and at the same time order the Zhang Jaw Department to leave Liyang and go south to enter Wuchao; ordered Ma Chao to leave Baima and march to Liang County, and if Liang County was already occupied by Yuan Shaojun, he would retreat and occupy Jiyin County; Lü Bu's troops stayed in Yanzhou and did not move.

Zhou Yu nodded and added, "I also sent an envoy to Yuan Shao's ministry to inquire about Yuan Shao's plans."

Chen Chu nodded and said, "It should be so."

Subsequently, more than a dozen carrier pigeons flew out of Puyang and flew to the various departments of the Northern Army and the counties and states under the control of Chen Chu. More than 100,000 troops left Yecheng and Puyang to go south to Yanzhou, and the people along the way saw this and thought that there was another big battle.

While the armies of the Northern Army were in full swing, the convoy kept going back and forth between Huguan and Yecheng. When the convoy headed for Huguan, it was carrying wounded prisoners and cold, hot urns; When he returned from Huguan, he was carrying grain and grass collected from all over the three states.

"Xu Shu, you are really capable. The lord's strategy has been guessed by you! Yanzhou, in the majestic hall of the Zhishuo, Lu Bu smiled with the urgent letter that had just been delivered.

Xu Shu smiled slightly and asked, "What did the lord say?"

"The lord has ordered Zhang Fei to lead the First Army south to Yanzhou..."Speaking of Zhang Fei, Lu Bu picked the corners of his mouth, and then continued: "At the same time, order Zhang Jaw to lead the 40,000 soldiers under his command to enter Wuchao, order Ma Chao to leave Baima and march to Liang County, and order our army to stand still!"

Xu Shu nodded, and asked again, "What did the lord say about the performance of our department?"

Lu Bu shook his head and said, "The lord didn't say anything about it in the letter.

Xu Shu sighed lightly and guessed: "I'm afraid the lord is very dissatisfied with the performance of our army some time ago!" "。 It stands to reason that Chen Chu should praise Lu Bubu's performance in his flying pigeon biography to Lu Bubu, if not, it means that Chen Chu is very dissatisfied with Lu Bubu's performance.

Lu Bu, who had always been arrogant and arrogant, also fell silent when he heard this. Some time ago, the performance of the army he led was indeed very bad, first fell into the enemy's strategy, although this was not their fault to a large extent, and then was dragged by Li Dian's troops, and failed to defeat Li Dian's troops, who were at an absolute disadvantage.

"I'm afraid I'm going to be laughed at by Zhang Fei's puppet again!" After being silent for a long time, Lu Bu suddenly said this. Xu Shu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then showed a look of crying and laughing, this Lu Bu was still thinking about these things.

Lu Bu looked at Xu Shu, his eyes shining. Xu Shu couldn't help but feel a little frightened.

"Xu Shu, we must make up for it!"

Xu Shu swallowed his saliva and asked, "What are you going to do?" You can't mess around! "

Didn't you say that Yuan Shao must have made some deal with Cao Cao? He also said that Yuan Shao would definitely seize Yanzhou's territory when Cao Jun and our army had no time to take care of him? Lu Bu asked two questions in a row.

Xu Shu nodded a little blankly, he still didn't understand what Lu Bu wanted to do.

Lu Bu raised his chin and continued: "Ma Chao rushed from Baima to Liangjun, the road is long; And we are much closer to Liang County! Why don't you..."

Xu Shu was shocked, interrupted Lu Bu, and asked urgently, "You plan to send troops to Liang County?" No, no, no!

Lu Bu's eyes widened, "Why not?"

"Fengxian, don't forget, the order given to us by the lord is to stand still, besides, if our army leaves Yanzhou, what about the defense of Yanzhou? You must know that Shanyang and Dongping still have Cao Cao's tens of thousands of troops!

Lu Bu glared at Xu Shu with puffed eyes, and Xu Shu glared back without flinching.

The two stared at each other for a moment, and Lu Bu suddenly said, "I only need to bring five thousand light horsemen to go, and you can lead the main force to stay in Yanzhou."

Xu Shu frowned and asked, "If the main force of Yuan Shao's army arrives in Liang County, what will you do?" "

I regard Yuan Jun as a mustard!"

Xu Shu was anxious, "Fengxian, you must not be reckless!"

Lu Bu waved his hand impatiently, "Okay! I've decided! In

the afternoon of the same day, Lu Bu gathered five thousand light horsemen and prepared to leave the city. Xu Shu still tried to dissuade him, but Lu Bu was unmoved.

Lü Bu led 5,000 light horsemen out of Yanzhou and headed south to Liang County, which was hundreds of miles away. Xu Shu couldn't dissuade Lu Bu, so he had to send a flying pigeon biography to Chen Chu in Yecheng.

At this time, everyone didn't know that Lu Bu's seemingly reckless action this time had saved Chen Chu a lot of losses.

At the same time that Lü Bu led his army to Liang County, an army of 50,000 people was also heading to Liang County. This army set out from Qian County, and they were undoubtedly Yuan Shao's army, and the leading general was Yuan Shao's confidant Han Meng.

Yuan Shaojun set off one day before Lü Bu's army, but Yuan Shaojun's army was basically a foot soldier, and although Lü Bu was a day late, he led all light cavalry, so it is still unknown which army will arrive in Liang County first.

Lü Bu led the light cavalry all the way through the state and galloped through the prefecture, and entered the territory of Liang County near noon the next day.

At this moment, the 50,000 army led by Han Meng had also entered the territory of Liang County, and the 2,000 forward cavalry was about to arrive in Liang County.

The two cavalry teams quickly approached the same target, and half an hour later, they suddenly met in the field outside the city of Liangjun.

The soldiers on both sides were stunned. Lu Bu was the first to react, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he shouted: "The whole army obeys the order, follow me to attack!" After saying that

, Lu Bu shouted, and rushed out first, and then five thousand light horsemen shouted violently, and followed Lu Bu towards the cavalry that was still stunned on the other side.

Facing the roaring cavalry of the Northern Army, Yuan Shaojun suddenly panicked.

Five thousand iron horsemen roared into Yuan Shao's army, and immediately killed Yuan Shaojun's people on their backs, and blood flew sideways.

Lu Bu flipped Fang Tian's halberd, and no one could stop him wherever he passed, and he rode into the opponent's depth alone, directly taking the opponent's leading generals.

The generals of the Yuan army hurriedly met the battle, and in only one round, they were knocked down by Lu Bu and jumped up from their horses. The surrounding soldiers of the Yuan army were shocked when they saw this, and they fled in all directions.

Lu Bu picked up the corpse of the general of the Yuan army and shouted loudly. When the soldiers of the Yuan army saw that the lord was about to be killed, their morale suddenly fell to zero, and the whole army was scattered.

Facing the cavalry of the Yuan army who fled in a hurry, Lu Bu did not pursue him. Lu Bu did not blindly pursue the enemy's rout, showing that he was much more mature and experienced than in the past.

Lu Bu stood proudly, and his subordinates grabbed a prisoner and came to Lu Bu. He threw himself to the ground and shouted, "Kneel!" The

captives were frightened and fell to their knees, not daring to raise their heads.

"Say, 'Whose army are you?'

"Back to the general's words, we are General Yuan's army." The captive replied tremblingly.

"General Yuan? You're talking about Yuan Shao, right? "

Yes, yes, it's Yuan Shao, it's Yuan Shao." The captive raised his head and suddenly saw the fierce general of the Northern Expeditionary Army in front of him, and his heart was shocked, and he hurriedly lowered his head again.

"How many of you came?" Lu Bu asked again.

"50,000 horses, led by General Han Meng."

If other generals heard this number, they would definitely frown and show worry; But Lu Bu's face was as usual, as if the captive was not talking about 50,000 troops, but 50,000 pigs.

Lü Bu ordered a captain to lead five hundred cavalry into Liang County first, and then said to a captain in front of the captives: "Send someone to order General Ma Chao's 100,000 army to speed up." Then, Lu Bu said to the captive, "Go back and tell Han Meng that if you want to live, stay away!" The captive only agreed, and then, Lu Bu ordered the prisoner to be released.

Lu Bu touched his chin, a smug smile appeared on his face, and said in his heart: The lord always says that I don't know how to use tricks, I will use a plan today, so that the lord and the generals will be impressed!

Lu Bu played a little clever here, he wanted to give the other party the illusion that the army was coming, but his method was quite rough.

Five hundred cavalry galloped into the unguarded Liang County. Iron hooves clanged through the streets, and the people hid in their houses, watching the fabled army through the cracks and windows with complicated expressions.

After the cavalry entered the city, they first took control of the treasury, but the treasury was empty, and there was not even a grain of grain. This is not surprising, Cao Cao's men and horses withdrew, of course, they took away what they could take away, and destroyed what they couldn't take away, how could they leave the recipient with a slight.

The cavalry then closed the four gates, posted notices in the streets and alleys, and imposed martial law on the whole city.

Lü Bu led more than 4,000 horsemen to about five miles south of Liang County. The official road leads to Liang County, with a sparse forest on the right and a tall undulating hill on the left, with shrubs and mottled green.

Lu Bu led four thousand horsemen to line up in front of the road, looking very arrogant.
