Chapter 49 Chapter 49 Returning to the camp and facing inquiries...
Back in the camp, facing Han Xin who came to inquire, Lu Bu smiled coldly and said mockingly: "That common man named Zhou dares to fool my brother and I as fools."
The Xiang family's idiot is in a tight war situation, so why would he send a special order to guard the abandoned hill where there is no trace of a ghost?
This excuse is both clumsy and ridiculous. Anyone with a little knowledge of military affairs or the overlord's temperament will be able to see through it at a glance.
Zhou Yin expected to fool him with this, which was really ridiculous.
Han Xin frowned slightly: "General Zhang is probably in a bad situation."
Although Zhang Han was a surrendered general from the former Qin Dynasty, he was extremely obedient to Xiang Yu and had no intention of rebelling again.
Since Zhou Yin had different intentions, the first person to be eliminated was Zhang Han, who was disobedient but had military power and was quite capable of leading troops in battle.
Lu Bu said indifferently: "What the hell."
He and Zhang Han are not related, so they are doing stupid things?
Driving him out was exactly what he wanted.
Han Xin was slightly surprised, but he saw that the wise brother had put on his uniform and weapons, as if he was going to march out according to Zhou Yin's nonsense: "Bu has already told the man surnamed Zhou that Brother Han is allowed to stay with 30,000 troops. Specific details. Whether the remaining 30,000 or 40,000 are left is not his turn to count one by one."
Speaking of this, Lu Bu sneered: "Another blind fool... Brother Lao Han is here to sit here, wait for him for a while, and stop him for a while."
Han Xin was surprised and said: "Dear brother, are you really going to guard Feiqiu?"
"Why are you going to that ruined hill?" Lu Bu said coldly: "Although this cunning trick of inducing a tiger to leave the mountain and a mouse to come out of its cave is very clumsy, even that stupid Zhou Yin couldn't pull it off. It is probably the handiwork of old thief Liu. "
The general guarding Hanzhong is Dong Yi, and he cannot be trusted.
Even if Dong Yi is not as collusive with Liu Bang as Zhou Yin is, with his mediocre abilities, he is definitely not Liu Bang's rival.
After all, Lu Bu is a veteran on the battlefield and has a sharp eye.
When he unexpectedly dug out the maps of various places to attack the fortresses a while ago, he focused on taking a closer look at the terrain in the Hanzhong area and memorized all the passes, cities and roads.
Without knowing whether Hanzhong was lost, he would not go there either to dislike it or to throw himself into a trap.
And simply choose the one he thinks is most likely among the five roads connecting Hanzhong and Guanzhong.
Tangluo Road and Baoxie Road are narrow and steep, and cannot accommodate a large army. Liu Bangjing's recent renovations will definitely expand the number of troops beyond the pitiful five thousand troops. It is absolutely impossible to choose these two roads.
If you want to get out, you can only go out from Ziwu Road, Chencang Road or Qishan Road.
Among them, Qishan Road is the farthest, followed by Chencang Road, and Ziwu Road is the closest...
Lu Bu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Han Xin, who was deep in thought. He suddenly slapped his forehead and suddenly woke up.
What is he thinking about on his own?
The man in front of me is the soldier who used the ingenious plan of "building plank roads openly and attacking warehouses secretly"!
Han Xin was stunned when his wise brother slapped his forehead for no reason.
The next moment, I heard the other party humbly ask for advice: "Qishan, Chencang, and Ziwu. If Brother Han were the Liu thief, which way would he choose to enter the pass?"
Han Xin's thoughts moved, and he suddenly understood the wise brother's intention of not responding to Zhou Yin's plan even though he knew it.
Although he didn't know what kind of blood feud caused the worthy brother to hold such deep grudges, since it was his wish, he would do his best to cooperate and fulfill it.
After Lu Bu asked, he said without thinking: "I must go to Ziwu."
If this matter is truly the work of Liu Bang, with his wiliness and temperament of never losing his temper before the opportunity comes, Dong Yi, the defender of Hanzhong, is definitely no match for him.
The land of Hanzhong may have been lost quietly long ago, and the Chu army stationed in Xianyang did not even know about it.
Since they marched to Hanzhong first, and Xianyang was unprepared and had no troops to intercept Liu Bang, in order to prevent long nights and heavy dreams, the faster the better, why take a long detour?
Ziwu Road is not only the shortest road, but as soon as it exits the road, it leads to the poorly guarded Du County Town, followed by a large area of flat land.
A few dozen miles further east, you will reach Bashang, where Liu Bang once stationed his army and is very familiar with it. Going a little further north, you can reach Xianyang.
When the Grand Sima Zhou Yin rebelled, Zhang Han's life and death were unknown, and the 150,000 defenders had no general to lead them, the army led by Liu Bang could march straight into the hinterland of the Chu capital and regain Xianyang without any effort.
At this time, Xianyang had gradually regained its prosperity and vitality under the leadership of Xiang Yu and the diligent management of Chu officials. The fields were green and green, and it was by no means comparable to the dilapidation and depression of the past.
Once Liu Bang succeeds...
It is tantamount to letting the other party cultivate in Bashu for a while, and then rely on the combination of vertical and horizontal to easily pick the fruits that the Chu people have worked hard to plant.
In addition to the heavy losses, the shame and humiliation of making wedding clothes for others was enough to make Xiang Yu furious and lose his mind.
Lu Bu sighed slightly: "What my brother said coincides with what Bu Zhi thinks."
After saying that, he put on his armor over his shirt and moved his limbs a little. He was extremely light and agile without being hindered at all.
The corners of his lips slightly raised, and he said energetically: "Brother Han, please bother me and drag it out first. When the cloth is blocked, we will return immediately to help!"
Han Xin smiled sincerely.
Both Lu Bu and Han Xin knew very well that the 45,000 soldiers and horses left behind might have to face not only the 150,000 defenders driven by Zhou Yin, but also the menacing tens of thousands of King Bao of the Western Wei Dynasty. Part.
But firstly, Lu Bu was convinced that Han Xin was an immortal soldier and could use troops like a god, which was definitely not comparable to that of Zhou Yin, let alone the good-for-nothing King of the Western Wei Dynasty; secondly, he wanted to take Liu Bang's head. , seeing this great opportunity coming to his door, he was eager for revenge and could not help but
Don't take the chance.
And Han Xin was also confident in his ability to mobilize troops and arrange troops. In addition, in order to fulfill his brother's long-cherished wish, not to mention a little bit of certainty, even if his life was in danger, he would not blink an eyelid. I happily agreed.
So Lu Bu immediately grabbed his weapons and took only the 5,000 soldiers from the enemy camp who were most used to them, and headed to the entrance of Ziwu Valley to block Liu Mouse.
Along the way, his face was dark and he was running fast, holding the reins in one hand, but the other hand was always loosely placed on his waist.
The soldiers only thought that the general had superb riding skills and a calm posture, but they did not know that what was covered in the other hand was the Longyuan sword entrusted to the overlord before he left.
The trapped camp was already full of fine cavalry, and now they were marching with all their strength, and their speed was even more terrifying.
In less than two hours, they arrived at Ziwu Road.
It was quiet all around, the ground was flat, and there were no messy hoof prints. It didn't look like a large army had stepped on it.
Lu Bu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly ordered the soldiers to cover up their hoof prints, hide in the dense forest on the edge, and carefully wait for the enemy.
When the soldiers did as they were told and everything returned to deathly silence, Lu Bu forced himself to wait patiently, but at the same time he felt a little anxious uncontrollably.
He frowned, pursed his thin lips, and looked up at the dim crescent moon from time to time, then looked back in the direction he came from.
Only a cup of tea had passed, and the soldiers were very quiet. He saw that the opportunity for revenge was right in front of him. He should have been excited and happy, but he could never get rid of the anxiety.
——What's going on?
Lu Bu was also very puzzled. He thought about it for a moment and suddenly realized it.
What made him uneasy was the cold iron magic weapon on his waist!
"What a useless thing, disturbing my mind!"
Lu Bu cursed silently, untied the Longyuan Sword as if to vent his anger, threw it to the ground without saying a word, and stepped on it along the way.
His sudden move startled the Chu soldiers who were lying beside him.
But it was pitch black all around, and with the faint moonlight, I could only vaguely glimpse the outline of the long thing passing by.
Seeing that General Lu was obviously in a worried mood, no one dared to touch his bad luck. They could only suppress their curiosity and continue to wait in silence.
The moon is dark and the stars are sparse, the cicadas are weeping at night.
Lu Bu's face turned black and blue, and he stared angrily at the deserted Ziwu Pass, cursing why Liu Mouse didn't show up yet, while still stepping on the broken sword.
However, the restlessness in his heart not only did not dissipate after he solved the Longyuan Sword, but actually became more intense.
——It’s all the fault of that ignorant idiot!
In such a large Chu camp, no one could give this broken sword to anyone, why should it be given to him who was just here and had something important to do? !
The more Lu Bu thought about it, the angrier he became, his eyes filled with anger.
That idiot was born with a pair of double pupils, but they are not as useful as ordinary pupils. That's why he was teased by Uncle Xiang and betrayed by Ting Bu. Now, even Zhou Yin is just a bitch with ill intentions and wants to stab him in the back. One knife... If this goes on, not only will half of the country that he helped and worked so hard to build be lost in one fell swoop, but 80% of his hometown will also be lost!
Kong was so big, and had the ferocious strength that God favored, but he couldn't recognize people, and he ended up exhausted running around like a blind bear rushing around.
He deserves his bad luck!
Lu Bu narrowed his eyes slightly and thought viciously.
Thanks to his cleverness, not only did he not fall for the trick of that bitch named Zhou, but he also very kindly asked for the soldier Han Xin in advance to help guard Xianyang for a while.
Han Xin, who is famous in the history books, personally led the elite troops to guard the city. Even if his troops were several times smaller, how could he be afraid of the rabble?
Moreover, he had long thought that he would just wait until Liu Bang's head was taken off his neck, and then leave in style...but he changed his mind at the last moment, thinking that before leaving, he would turn back and relieve Xianyang's soldiers before leaving!
In fact, it was because Brother Han treated him well, and for the sake of the jade lion who was relatively easy to use... In any case, it can be said that he was extremely benevolent to the stupid king.
Lu Bu kept a straight face, thinking about the battle between heaven and man in his mind, and while he was cursing, the soldiers trapped in the camp were unknown.
Ever since they convinced General Lu, they have been completely obedient.
Even though Lu Bu had been silent for most of the night, he suddenly dragged a group of them into a corner of this remote place where they were hiding something, but they didn't say a word and just obeyed silently.
At this time, they all endured the mosquito bites painfully, waiting calmly for some enemy force to appear at an unknown time.
The wait always seemed extremely long. Everyone could only occasionally look up at the crescent moon in the sky and judge the time by its gradual westward tilt.
It seemed like I had been waiting for a hundred years, but looking at the distance the moon was slanting... it was only an hour at most.
Just when everyone was exhausted, but continued to endure without any complaints, a figure suddenly stood up!
Everyone was startled, and when they took a closer look, they saw that the one who couldn't bear it first was none other than the commander-in-chief Lu Bu.
--what happened?
Thousands of people held their breath, confused and confused.
Just relying on the dim moonlight, no one could tell that Lu Bu's face was extremely ugly at this moment, and his eyes were sinister, as if he was about to commit murder the next moment.
He knew very well that if he had to wait for at least one night, Liu Mouse would show up - which would definitely be a precious opportunity for him to kill his old enemy ancestors after the palace banquet that day.
Lu Bu grinded his teeth bitterly, muttering some curse words in his mouth. He leaned over fiercely and roughly picked up the Longyuan Sword that had been heavily stepped into the soil by the sole of his boot.
I just patted the dust casually,
He ferociously pinned it on his waist again.
His face was as black as ink, and his mood was obviously extremely bad. When he turned around to face the dull-looking soldier, he couldn't help but said angrily: "No wait! Go back to Xianyang!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he climbed onto the jade lion with overwhelming anger and galloped away in the direction he came from.
The soldiers were stunned and at a loss.
After all, they didn't dare to question the decision of the inexplicably angry general, so they got on their horses and hurriedly chased after him.
Relying on the large distance that the Jade Lion had thrown away with its speed, Lu Bu no longer tried hard to suppress his aggrieved heart, and roared menacingly!
After filling his mouth with cold wind and finishing howling in one breath, he slowed down his horse and cursed resignedly: "Damn it, I owed that stupid king in my previous life!"
That idiot has been blind for a short period of his life. He doesn't know whether it was because of the puffs of smoke coming out of his ancestral grave or because Wu Zui stepped on dog excrement that he regained his eyesight this time.
I really picked the right person, and he knows how to call me to look after the house.
Lu Bu casually wiped his face, which was cold from the wind. His eyes were so cold that ice would fall from his eyes, and there was a smell of grinding teeth.
——Can a hero as wise and brave as me, after agreeing to look after his house, still let him go out and even lose his nest?
If I miss this time, will I have to wait four fucking years, or even have to fight the world over again?
Ten thousand steps back, as long as Han Xin is here, Xianyang will be 90% safe.
But if Zhou Yin was really allowed to go head-to-head with the 150,000 defenders and the military strength of the Bingxian, he would definitely not be Han Xin's opponent, and he would definitely suffer heavy losses.
Where is the war?
He was clearly called a dog traitor and lost the family fortune that Xiang Hanzi had worked so hard to save without feeling any pain!
Not only do we have to go back, we also have to go back as soon as possible, lest the cheap guy with evil intentions start too quickly and wipe out the 150,000 Chu soldiers in Xianyang City!
Lu Bu's belly was filled with fire. As he raced desperately, he broke the jar and cursed: "God, you bastard!"
It’s only four years—after all, I’m still young, so it’s not like I can’t afford to wait!
