The most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms

The envoy sent by Wang Yun spent a lot of time to find Huangfu Song.

At this time, Huangfu Song's camp was filled with a murderous atmosphere.

Huangfu Song's uncle was Huangfu Gui, one of the Three Ming Dynasties in Liangzhou, and Huangfu Song himself was a famous general in the world.

Since the Liangzhou Rebellion, the lives of the people in Liangzhou and Yongzhou have been difficult.

Since Han Sui was made the shepherd of Liangzhou by Dong Zhuo, his troops have become even more unscrupulous. Many people in Liangzhou and Yongzhou hope to get rid of Han Sui as soon as possible.

Therefore, after Huangfu Song led his army to Yongzhou, he quickly recruited troops. Rich families from all over the country responded and provided money, grain, soldiers and horses, etc.

Huangfu Song was overjoyed when he learned that Dong Zhuo had been killed and Luoyang had been controlled by Wang Yun and Lu Bu.

Cao Cao was also relieved to be able to get rid of Dong Zhuo.

However, Huangfu Song is now attacking Han Sui.

If Huangfu Song returns to Luoyang now, it will give Han Sui a chance to breathe.

The rebellion in Liangzhou cannot be quelled, and the rebellion in Liangzhou will further affect Yongzhou, even Bingzhou, and even Sili.

Of course, Cao Cao also understood his priorities.

If the situation in Luoyang can be stabilized, the world will be stabilized.

Therefore, Huangfu Song gave up the crusade against Han Sui and instead sent his army back to Luoyang.

July 193 AD.

Since Zhou Cheng went south, he has asked people to spread rumors that"Wang Yun wants to cleanse the people here".

After Zhou Cheng passed Sishui Pass, he took the banner of revenge for Dong Zhuo.

In addition to Wang Fang and Li Meng, Xiliang troops and horses successively defected to Zhou Cheng.

The number of troops and horses under Zhou Cheng's command has reached nearly 50,000.

At the same time, with Niu Fu killed, Zhou Cheng went south.

Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji and others heard the rumors, and at the same time, they were also afraid of ending up like Niu Fu.

After all, abandoning the army and fleeing is a very stupid thing.

Therefore, they joined forces and prepared to lead the army to attack Luoyang.

When they arrived at Mianchi, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji and others had nearly 80,000 troops and horses.

At the same time, Li Ru also joined Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji and others. With Li Ru making suggestions for them, Guo Si, Li Jue and others seemed to have a backbone.

In Luoyang City, Wang Yun and Lu Bu had only 50,000 troops.

Lu Bu is at a disadvantage in terms of military strength.

……

Xingyang.

Zhou Cheng was stationing his troops in Xingyang City, and he was in no hurry to attack Luoyang.

Luoyang City is high and deep, and there are more than 50,000 troops and horses.

Lu Bu is by no means a mediocre person, and he is not in a hurry to conquer Luoyang.

Of course, the most important ones are none other than Li Jue, Guo Si, Li Ru and others.

Now Li Jue, Guo Si, Li Ru and others have more than 80,000 troops and horses. If Zhou Cheng breaks through Luoyang, the next step will be to face Li Jue, Guo Si and others.

Regardless of victory or defeat, there will be huge losses.

This is not in Zhou Cheng's interests.

Therefore, Zhou Cheng asked Jia Xu for strategies to defeat the enemy:"Teacher, our army is in Hebei, and we only led less than 20,000 cavalry south. Wang Fang, Li Meng and others are newly attached generals. I am worried about them."

Zhou Cheng We only led the Death Battalion, Dawn Cavalry, and Tiger Camp to the south. Now the three battalions will not have more than 20,000 troops.

And Wang Fang and others are all from Xiliang. Now that Li Ru, Guo Si, Li Jue and others have gathered together, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not defect before the battle and join Li Jue, Guo Si and others.

Jia Xu said:"My lord, the first step in using military force is to plan. Before the battle, you must first estimate the wise and foolish generals, the strength and weakness of the enemy, the number of troops, the danger of the ground, and the availability of food and supplies. Review, then send out troops, and win every battle. The art of war says: Anticipate the enemy to win, plan for dangers near and far, this is the way of a general."

Jia Xu's words, in simple terms, are to analyze the enemy's situation and then formulate corresponding strategies..

Zhou Cheng nodded frequently.

At this time, Jia Xu said:"Li Wenyou is good at planning, and he is determined to instigate Hu Zhen, Duan Xuan, Xu Rong and others to join him. However, Lu Bu is brave but without plans, tough and rude. From what I see, Lu Bu is determined If you don't take Li Jue and Guo Si seriously, you will definitely go out to fight. If Lu Bu goes out, there will be chaos in the city."

Zhou Cheng nodded, if Lu Bu goes out to fight Li Jue, Guo Si and others, and Li Ru takes the opportunity to instigate Hu Zhen , Duan Xuan and others caused chaos in Luoyang City.

Lu Bu was worried that Luoyang was in danger, so he would definitely lead his army back to rescue Luoyang.

As a result, Li Jue, Guo Si, Zhang Ji and others surrounded Luoyang with their armies and trapped Lu Bu in the city.

And Lu Bu will no longer trust Hu Zhen, Duan Xuan, Xu Rong and others. As a result, there will be fewer troops and horses capable of defending the city.

Facing the Xiliang army with more than 80,000 troops and horses, they were uneasy and wanted to break through Luoyang as soon as possible.

Even if Lu Bu was brave enough, he couldn't stop him.

Zhou Cheng suddenly asked:"Can I recruit Li Ru to surrender?"

Zhou Cheng wanted to ask Jia Xu this question since he went south.

Jia Xu replied:"Li Wenyou poisoned King Hongnong, and the world cannot tolerate it. Wang Yun and others all know that the person who helped Dong Zhuo is Li Ru. This man has lofty ambitions. If the lord wants to use it for his own use, I can write Give this letter to Li Ru to reassure him first, and then choose a time to meet him."

Zhou Cheng nodded and agreed to Jia Xu's suggestion.

First, appease Li Ru and let him have an escape route in his mind.

As for recruiting Li Ru, there is no rush, anyway, unless Li Ru wants to retire.

Otherwise, Zhou Cheng has a great chance of recruiting Li Ru to surrender.
