Chapter 806 Agreement with Lu Bu
Zhang Yu focused on stability. Although he knew that the enemy would not be able to sneak out of the city to attack them, he still advanced slowly, taking advantage of every step.
At the beginning of Zhang Yu's planned attack, a large number of siege equipment had been produced in Chao County. It would take several days for them to arrive on the battlefield with the siege equipment.
Yu Jin was the vanguard, leading an army of [-] people, and uprooted all the city strongholds along the way.
"Lord, we expect to arrive outside Hefei in five days, and Sun Ce and the others are expected to be two to three days behind us." Gao Shun came over to report.
This time they took action with an army of 20, and an army of [-] was stationed in Chaoxian under the command of Zang Ba.
On the way, the enemy's situation has basically been clarified.
Lu Bu led 20 troops stationed in Hefei City. In Lu'an City, another 30 Yuan Army generals were stationed. The last 40 troops were stationed in Shouchun City under the command of Ji Ling, and the remaining 10,000+ troops were scattered in various cities. However, At this time, they were almost wiped out.
The three armies divided into three groups to attack these places.
For the time being, there was no one to attack Lu'an City, but tens of thousands of soldiers and horses were sent to contain it.
Zhang Yu and the others made good progress step by step, and there were indeed no enemies to attack along the way.
If an attack comes, Zhang Yu is not afraid. With Gao Shun here, the army will not jump, so it doesn't matter even if Lu Bu comes.
Gao Shun had already avoided Lu Bu when he attacked Xuzhou last time, but this time, Gao Shun not only did not avoid it, but also took the initiative to ask for a fight.
Last time it was qingyi, but this time Lu Bu took refuge in Yuan Shu, not only the morality was exhausted, but also the qingyi was exhausted.
Gao Shun's will is firm, the former giri was giri, but now it is a matter of position, and they must not be mixed together.
The journey was peaceful, and Zhang Yu led an army of more than 20 to a place dozens of miles outside Hefei with great fanfare.
"Establish a temporary camp, Gao Shun will lead the army to guard it, the scouts will disperse for thirty miles, and the rest will rest." After dark, Zhang Yu ordered the camp.
You can't be careful when you're close to enemies here.
There was no talking all night, and no enemy came to attack.
Lu Bu in Hefei City wanted to sneak attack the enemy army, but he no longer had a military adviser and was afraid of being ambushed. Moreover, after he left the city, he was very worried without Chen Gong to help him defend the city.
The next day, Zhang Yu continued to move forward and arrived thirty miles away from Hefei City.
"To build a strong camp, we must not only defend the front, but also strengthen the sides and rear," Zhang Yu said.
The enemy is not only Lu Bu, strictly speaking, Sun Ce is also his place.
Outside Xuzhou City, the three Cao Yuanzhang families have hurt each other several times, so there is no guarantee that this will not happen this time.
Camping thirty miles away can effectively prevent the enemy from attacking the camp.
A large amount of food and grass must be stored here, and the defense must be strong.
"Hailai, come with me to see Lu Bu." Zhang Yu called Dian Wei and said.
The two set out with [-] bodyguards and cavalry.
The sound of horse hooves was the drumbeat for Zhang Yu to change from passive defense to active attack.
Thirty miles, the cavalry can reach it in less than half an hour.
When we arrived outside the city, the enemy was already waiting at the top of the city.
"Go, go around."
Zhang Yu led the cavalry, and in a spectacular manner, the elite lineup circled around.
Lu Bu on the top of the city watched this process with mixed feelings in his heart.
After he defected to Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu separated Lu Bu's remaining 3 soldiers and horses, leaving only [-] personal guards for him, citing the lack of elites in the army and the need to disperse the veterans to various armies to strengthen combat effectiveness.
Lu Bu was very helpless, and he had no room to bargain after fleeing in embarrassment.
At this time, although he had an army of 20, he was not an elite. Of course, the weapons and equipment were complete, and he had also trained for several months.
However, with an army of 20, he did not have enough generals and could not be trained effectively. There was a big gap between him and the elite.
Lu Bu was envious. He had so many elite soldiers at the beginning, but now he could only lead a group of miscellaneous soldiers.
He was very envious that Zhang Yu had a large number of elite soldiers, and the men went to the battlefield, so that they could enjoy their friendship and enmity.
"Lu Bu, why don't we go down to the city and talk about it."
After turning around and coming back, Zhang Yu shouted to Lu Bu on the top of the city.
"Okay." Lu Bu agreed without thinking.
Lu Bu left the city with five thousand personal guards.
The two armies confronted each other just below the city, and Zhang Yu went out alone, and Lu Bu also went out alone, and the two met under the city.
"General Lu, we meet again." Zhang Yu said simply in his opening remarks.
Lu Bu said, "There is no need to say anything about persuading the surrender."
"Of course, although General Lu has been defeated in battles, it is not that you are incapable of using force or leading an army, but that you have been isolated and helpless. General Lu's ability alone must be respected," Zhang Yu said.
Lu Bu glanced at Zhang Yu in surprise and said nothing.
Zhang Yu continued: "However, General Lu has to admit defeat, and there is no excuse for failure. Now that the King has made an agreement with General Lu, I don't know if General Lu dares to agree."
"please say."
"If you are defeated by me again, surrender to me." Zhang Yu looked at Lu Bu and said firmly.
"Hahaha~" Lu Bu looked up to the sky and laughed and said, "Zhang Yu, although I have failed many times, I have always looked down on you. Do you really think I will surrender to you?"
"Yes, I can give General Lu the best destination and give General Lu a reason to live."
Lu Bu was even more surprised this time, because he did avenge his death.
It is impossible for Lu Bu to surrender to others again. This time he is just cooperating with Yuan Shu, not directly surrendering to him and becoming his subordinate.
He is already a slave of the third surname. If he cannot establish his own power again, he will never be anyone's subordinate.
This was Lu Bu's decision, and Zhang Yu could actually understand him?
"How about the public platform?"
"He doesn't want to be an official, and now he is teaching in our Jiangdong Academy." Zhang Yu said truthfully.
Lu Bu sighed and said, "The one I feel most sorry for is Gongtai. He has a great talent. Jiangdong Academy is indeed a good home."
Lu Bu has always been ashamed of Chen Gong, if he can fully believe in Chen Gong's arrangements, he will be much better off, and the ending will not be so miserable.
"Zhang Yu, you are too arrogant. If you want me to surrender to you, it depends on your ability. If you can attack my city of Hefei within a month, then I will surrender to you." Lu Bu said .
Zhang Yu thought for a while and then said: "Okay. I have a letter from the public station here for you. You can open it in a month. Our agreement is settled."
Zhang Yu took out a letter from his pocket and threw it to Lu Bu, then turned his horse and went back.
This letter was written by Chen Gong to Lu Bu. Zhang Yu knew the content, and it was to persuade Lu Bu to surrender. There was a great chance that Lu Bu would surrender, but Zhang Yu gave up using this method.
Of course, the letter must be given to Lu Bu first, so that Lu Bu will not think that Zhang Yu can't do it by himself, and then invite Chen Gong out.
And to give the letter to Lu Bu in advance, I believe that Lu Bu's pride will not open the letter too early.
