Chapter 965
A black-clothed counselor was brought before Xu Fengnian, with many frowns on his face, a goatee beard, and a look of vicissitudes.
Li Ru, after the fall of Dong Zhuo's power, disappeared.
Now, Li Ru appeared in front of the world again.
Just over ten years later, Chu Tian and Xu Fengnian have entered their thirties from fledgling young men, while Li Ru has aged a lot.
"Li Ru, where have you been during this time?"
The battle was approaching, but Xu Fengnian calmed down instead.
"The king of Qin framed my master, so he didn't work for him. He lived in seclusion in the Longnan Mountains and didn't care about world affairs. Hearing that the king of Qin was dead and his family was in decline, he had to go out of the mountain and asked for an errand. Hearing that the Xiliang army attacked Hanzhong, if you don't mind , willing to serve in the army."
"..."
Xu Fengnian did not expect that a penny would be difficult for a hero.
Dong Zhuo's chief counselor, the notorious Li Ru, had to come out of the mountain again because of his family's decline.
After all, Li Ru couldn't stay out of the world. For the sake of future generations, Li Ru came out of the mountain again after his most hated Jiu Jiu Lao Qin died of illness.
When a person has concerns, he will have weaknesses.
The family is an important concern that many civil servants and generals cannot ignore.
Xu Fengnian didn't mind Li Ru's black spot very much. A counselor advises the king or the general, and if the counselor knows who the general is, he will not provide poisonous advice.
"Although I am the commander-in-chief of the Xiliang Army, I have no right to appoint and dismiss school lieutenants and military advisers, but I still have the right to recruit a few clerks to help with affairs. You will serve under my command for the time being."
Xu Fengnian chose to take in Li Ru.
Anyway, Li Ru was also an important figure in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and Xu Fengnian could still afford a scribe's money.
Chu Tian gave Xu Fengnian at least tens of thousands of taels of silver every year, not to mention a few clerks, Xu Fengnian could afford to support a hundred scribes. The problem was that Xu Fengnian could not do such a thing that made Chu Tian afraid.
The temporary recruitment of Li Ru was also to better capture Hanzhong.
Xiliang Army,
There was Xie Ai in white clothes, and Li Ru in black clothes came to serve as the division of the two armies.
"Li Ru?!"
The Second Corps of Xiliang Army, Xu Rong, Zhang Xiu, and Hua Xiong are all Dong Zhuo's former troops. When they saw Li Ru, the former military adviser, appearing in the Xiliang Army, they felt as if they had seen a ghost.
Li Ru lived in seclusion for ten years and has been forgotten by the world.
When Li Ru saw Xu Rong and the others again, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "My colleagues, how are you doing recently?"
"My big knife is not rusted."
Hua Xiong's temples have also turned white.
Dong Zhuo's old troops gathered again in the Second Army.
Li Ru saw Zhang Xiu: "The kid who was with Zhang Ji back then can now be alone? Zhang Ji is okay now?"
"A few years ago, my uncle was killed in battle with the Mongolian army in the Battle of Yumen Pass."
"I see."
Li Ru couldn't help sighing again.
At the beginning, Dong Zhuo's old army was torn apart, Li Jue and Guo Si's life and death were unknown, and Fan Chou was burned to death by Xia's army in the battle of Weibei.
Ten years is enough for things to change.
200,000 Xiliang soldiers came down to Biancheng, Xu Fengnian took Yuwentai, Duguxin, and Li Hu's third Wuchuan Army to capture Biancheng, and the remaining 150,000 soldiers surrounded Gushan.
Wang Meng bluffed and tried to force the Xiliang army to withdraw, but Xu Fengnian saw it through, so he led the troops to fight the former Qin army at Gushan.
Ma Chao and Pang De of the Xiliang Army lined up in front of the formation, looking down on the opposite army formation.
Wang Meng led Lu Bu, Deng Qiang, Zhang Hao, and Xu Cheng to the battle at the same time, and Fu Jian assisted them.
The Xiliang army was 150,000, and the former Qin army was 100,000. The two armies confronted each other. The north wind howled and the dust filled the air.
Lv Bu single-handedly showed his force in front of the 250,000 troops: "Lv Fengxian is here, is there anyone who dares to fight!?"
"Come to fight!"
Ma Chao from the Xiliang army came out and fought with Lu Bu in front of the two armies!
The iron gun roared like the wind in Ma Chao's hands, and by virtue of obtaining Wang Yanzhang's characteristics, superimposed with his own original personal characteristics, he fought against Lu Bu!
"How can it be……!"
Lu Bu and Ma Chao broke out in a battle, and found that Ma Chao's weapons were heavier than those used by ordinary generals. When Fang Tian's painted halberd collided with Ma Chao's iron spear, he couldn't take Ma Chao down.
"Is this the strength of the unparalleled Lu Fengxian?"
Ma Chao did not forget to sneer.
Lu Bu was furious, the veins on his forehead popped up, he entered the unparalleled state, the gods and demons danced wildly, Fang Tian's halberd's chopping and stabbing speed increased significantly, and Ma Chao fell into a hard fight!
The reaction speed of the red rabbit horse is also far faster than that of other war horses, carrying Lu Bu to charge to kill!
Ma Chao could only defend for a while.
"Lü Bu has entered the unparalleled state, and he is still as brave as before. Perhaps it will take another ten years for Lu Bu's force to decline."
As Dong Zhuo's counselor, Li Ru knew of Lu Bu's bravery, and seeing Lu Bu's unparalleled state at this time, he couldn't help feeling that Lu Bu was still the same as before.
It's not that Lu Bu has become weaker, but that other generals have also reached the peak level of 90 or 100. Lu Bu has no level suppression.
Xu Rong crossed his arms and observed Lu Bu who was attacking madly: "It is not unusual for Ma Chao to push Lu Bu to such a degree. As expected, heroes have been born since ancient times."
"Lü Bu has a red rabbit horse, which seems to be able to enhance Lu Bu's combat power. You go to meet Ma Chao's withdrawal."
Seeing that Ma Chao and Lu Bu had fought hundreds of times, Xu Fengnian was sweating profusely. He was worried that the number one general of the Xiliang Army would lose, so he sent Pang De to meet Ma Chao.
Pound dragged his knife out, and his horse galloped!
With a slash of green light, Lu Bu, who had entered the unparalleled state, reacted in time and blocked Pound's full-strength slash!
Lu Bu's body flickered, Ma Chao didn't intend to retreat, but continued to attack Lu Bu fiercely.
Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao, ten thousand enemies of the former Qin army, attacked and joined Lu Bu.
"Go away, it's just two people!"
Lu Bu was very dissatisfied with the appearance of Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao.
Deng Qiang also disliked Lu Bu: "I wouldn't have fought if the military division hadn't asked us to fight."
Deng Qiang swung his gun, forcing Pang De to block, and was on the offensive in an all-round way.
This time Ma Chao and Pound had to retreat and return to the Xiliang army.
"The ones joining forces with Lu Bu may be Deng Qiang, Zhang Hao, two fierce generals under Wang Meng's command. If they join forces to charge into battle, maybe I will be killed by them among thousands of troops."
Seeing that Ma Chao and Pang De were defeated, Xu Fengnian knew that Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao's military strength was not low, probably above 95.
Wang Meng and Fu Jian may have the aura of the whole army.
"It seems that maybe we should ask Chu Zimou for a general to kill Lu Bu's vigor."
Xu Fengnian is patiently waiting for the opportunity.
On the other side, the Third Wuchuan Legion of the Xiliang Army, Yuwentai joined forces with Li Hu and Duguxin, two veteran generals, to storm the Xiabian City defended by Lu Guang!
Yu Wentai supervised the battle with a sword. He was a hero of the same level as Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others.
The Xiliang army was encroaching on Wudu County, while Wang Jian's Guanzhong army divided into two groups, taking the Baoxie Road and the Tangluo Road.
The 400,000 Guanzhong army was too large, and the passage between the Qinling Mountains was narrow, so Wang Jian led an army by himself, and Li Ji led another 200,000 soldiers and horses, and agreed to attack Guanzhong together.
Meng Tian, Meng Wu and his son followed Wang Jian, while Feng Yi and Yang Ye followed Li Ji.
The Golden Fire Cavalry marched in the Qinling Mountains, Meng Tian held a long halberd, they had already marched in the Qinling Mountains for five days.
The Qinling Mountains that dominate the world are even more majestic, with many mountains and mountains, like a moat in the sky.
"The Shu army may set up fortifications at various exits of the Qinling Mountains, and then it will become a fuel-adding tactic. The superiority of troops may not be able to be used."
The topographic map of Western Shu in Wang Jian's hands has clearly delineated the passes of the Qinling Mountains.
The Shu army only needs to hold the pass, and the two sides are at a stalemate. Then, Wang Jian's army may have to retreat because of the lack of food.
However, if you attack Hanzhong from Guanzhong, you must try to attack Hanzhong at the risk of running out of food.
There is still a chance to try, but if you don't try, you won't even have a chance to capture Hanzhong.
In Chengdu, Liu Bei received a call for help from Hanzhong.
Hanzhong had 250,000 troops, Wang Mengdu 130,000 defended the Xiliang Army, and Yang Su only had 120,000 troops staying in Hanzhong.
Liu Bei gathered his troops in Chengdu.
Liu Bei also had thorny troubles, unable to exhaust all the soldiers in Shu.
The Xiliang army may surprise Yinping and march into Mianzhu and Chengdu. Therefore, Liu Bei must leave at least 100,000 people to defend Chengdu and the cities around Chengdu.
Suppressing the Nanman requires at least 100,000 troops.
Brazil County should also be guarded by troops.
"Second and third brothers, follow me to the battle. The country that has been conquered with great difficulty cannot be lost so easily."
Liu Bei personally commanded an army of 200,000 to go north to Hanzhong for reinforcements.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei will go out again.
"Liu Bei has already moved, Fazheng and Huang Quan are staying in Chengdu, Yan Yan is stationed in Bajun, Wu Han is stationed in Nanman, and Li Yan is stationed in Mianzhu."
Liu Bei led Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to the expedition, and the spies sent by Chutian to Chengdu immediately found out Liu Bei's movements.
The threat from Guan Yu and Zhang Fei is not small, so Chu Tian always pays attention to the three brothers Liu, Guan and Zhang.
"Xu Fengnian requested to dispatch Xue Rengui to Wudu County of Liangzhou to counter Lu Bu."
"Let Xue Rengui, Zhao Yun, and Chen Qing go to Wudu County before."
Xu Fengnian wanted Xue Rengui to fight against Lu Bu, so Chu Tian simply transferred Xue Rengui and Zhao Yun to Wudu County.
Lu Bu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and all the fierce generals of the former Qin Dynasty are almost all powerful generals of the military type. Guan Yu's commander value may be the highest among the five tiger generals.
Chu Tian had already returned to Xiacheng, and the coastal hilly areas in the east of Langya Kingdom and Beihai Kingdom were captured by the Jiangdong Navy, and several counties were occupied by the Jiangdong Army.
However, Xia City has not been threatened yet.
Chutian has transferred back 300,000 troops to Xuzhou, and started to recover the coastal counties. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for Wu Jun to gain a foothold along the coast.
The Kingdom of Shu and the Kingdom of Wu made Chu Tian understand what is called the danger of mountains and rivers, and the pain of Cao Cao.
It is difficult for the Kingdom of Shu to occupy the road of Shu, and the Jiangdong Navy travels across the world.
It is not easy to destroy these two kingdoms, as well as the Tang Kingdom, Song Kingdom, and Di Kingdom that are dependent on the two kingdoms.
"The Tongque attacked from the sea and bypassed the Huainan defense line. Do I have a way to bypass the Qinling Mountains and the Yangtze River?"
Inspired by Tongque's large-scale attack on Xuzhou and Qingzhou, Chutian is also considering changing his thinking.
"Master, do you know how Mongolia destroyed Song Dynasty?"
Xia Liang followed Chu Tian back to Xia City, and she proposed a new idea to Chu Tian.
