Chapter 466: A group of ruthless species
Chapter 466: A group of ruthless species
Lu Bu has two almost monopolized industries: salt and white paper, which can bring him huge profits.
Working under Lu Bu, an ordinary soldier's food and salary were more than twice as much as those under other princes.
Of course the soldiers supported Lu Bu very much.
When he learned that Zhang He and Gao Lan not only failed to catch up with Liu Bei, but Gao Lan also died in death, Yuan Shao was heartbroken.
Yuan Shao raised his hands tremblingly, his face full of grief and anger, and he looked up to the sky and shouted without tears.
"Oh my God! Why is this happening?"
There was silence in the hall, and everyone had very heavy expressions and felt uneasy.
Everyone feels that the war has not really started yet, but three of the famous Hebei Four Court Pillars have already been sacrificed. The impact on the morale of the army can be imagined.
Yuan Shao's heart was in a mess. Ever since he beat Lu Bu, he had not been able to go smoothly, and he felt very useless.
Guo Tu frowned, and after a while he stood up and offered advice.
"Lord, for the current plan, we can only find a decisive battle with Lu Bu and take advantage of our strength in numbers."
Xin Ping also nodded in agreement and said, "Yes, we must concentrate our superior forces and strive for a decisive and victorious battle."
After hearing Gu Gu's suggestion, Yuan Shao glanced at everyone in the camp solemnly. Other counselors such as Ju Shou and Shen Pei seemed to agree with the decisive battle suggestion.
Snapped!
After taking two deep breaths, Yuan Shao made up his mind and slapped his right palm heavily on the table.
"In order to achieve a decisive battle for victory, we must give Lu Bu a decisive battle. We should also let Lu Bu have a taste of the power of a large army pressing down on the enemy.
The generals obeyed the order and marched to Guandu today to eliminate Lu Bu in one fell swoop. "
"promise!"
Although the morale of Yuan Shao's army was low at this time, there were too many generals, and their roars together were deafening and exciting.
Hearing this inspiring roar, Yuan Shao's confidence returned. He raised his right fist and waved it twice in the air, shouting.
"Are you confident?"
"Have confidence."
The generals' voices rose a little higher.
Yuan Shao: "Speak louder, are you confident?"
“Yes, yes, yes.
Win!
must win! "
Everyone screamed crazily, and the roar shook the earth. The haze of failure also dissipated a lot at this time. Everyone gathered together and gave each other a lot of support.
The counselors also became active and quickly made suggestions to help Yuan Shao arrange his troops.
After stroking his beard, Yuan Shao looked at the enthusiastic people and smiled proudly.
I lamented that I was really an excellent leader and inspired everyone's confidence in just a few words.
Soon, orders from Yuan Shaozhong's army were spread one after another, and his more than 50 troops took action after hearing the orders.
More than a dozen armies cooperated with each other and attacked one after another, and soon captured several small cities including Yuanwucheng.
Then, Yuan's army marched non-stop and camped opposite Lu Bu in Guandu.
Guandu, a small place, suddenly fell into a tense atmosphere.
The people near Guandu had been transferred by Lu Bu long ago.
When the people were transferred, there were still a few stubborn people who said arrogantly: "This is my home, my roots, and I will not leave even if I am killed."
Some people said arrogantly: "Every year I pay food and taxes, don't I just let you fight to protect the people? Why should I move if the enemy comes? What use are you?"
At first, Lu Bu's men patiently advised: "This is a natural disaster and there is nothing we can do about it. For the sake of your safety, we'd better obey and move out quickly. We have arranged a place for you."
"No, my house is my life's work. I won't move away even if I die. A gold and silver nest is not as good as my doghouse."
"Ok."
Lu Bu's numbers were already tight, and he was not afraid of death, so he had to take care of others first.
Therefore, a small number of people in Guandu have not moved away at this time.
Now that Yuan Shao's army has arrived, this group of people really started to get scared and ran to Lu Bu's camp to petition.
"General Lu, our house has been burned down by Yuan Shao, you have to make the decision for me!"
"It's even worse for me. My family was brutally murdered by Yuan Jun. Woohoo!"
"Hurry up and save us!"
Cao Jing came out and said loudly and kindly: "Look south quickly, there is no Yuan Jun over there."
"What, let us go by ourselves? Didn't you send troops to guide us before? There are also vehicles to pick up the elderly and children."
When they heard that Cao Jing asked him to escape, the stubborn ones who didn't leave were extremely surprised and murmured unwillingly.
Cao Jing said patiently: "Yuan Jun didn't arrive at that time, and there were still rich men. Now everyone can't leave. You can escape on your own quickly."
Hearing this, a stubborn man jumped three feet high on the spot, crossed his arms and puffed out his chest, and shouted angrily: "That's not okay, that's not fair.
I'm not in good health and it's hard to walk. Why don't you pick us up? Aren't we human beings?
Do you still have a conscience?
Besides, if we are escaping on our own, how will we calculate the expenses on the road?
We have been under your control for several days later than the people who were transferred before. Do you want to compensate us for the difference in food and accommodation?
If you don't give me an explanation, I won't leave. Don't think I'm easy to bully. "
"Yes, yes..."
The other stubborn types were also filled with anger and dared to start swearing, but they saw Cao Jing put his hand on the handle of the knife with a snap and shouted loudly.
"Who are you yelling at?"
A roar made this group of stubborn people suddenly startled, with a trace of fear in their eyes, and the previous arrogant atmosphere was no longer there.
Cao Jun said angrily: "When I was responsible for transferring the people, most of them were obedient and left obediently. It's just you group of unruly people who didn't cooperate with the work.
Now I'm making irresponsible remarks again. I'll give you three more chances to breathe. If you don't get out quickly, you will be dealt with as a delay in the military. "
"You? Do you still dare to kill someone?"
A middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks tilted his head and patted his neck, then took two steps forward provocatively.
brush!
A cold light flashed, and blood dripped from the knife in Cao Jing's hand.
The middle-aged man with a slanted neck did not understand until his death that his trick was very effective in scaring ordinary people, but why he couldn't use it today.
"Run!"
Everyone shouted and ran away, and no one complained that Cao Jing was not trustworthy.
He was obviously talking about three breaths of time, but how could he kill a person in the blink of an eye?
……
Ignore these unruly people and let's talk about the war situation.
Yuan Shao's military strength, minus the 10,000+ men and horses sacrificed in the previous months, still had an army of 52 at this time.
Lu Bu's army only had 20 people at the beginning, and now there are only 16 left.
The difference between the two is more than three times.
Yuan Shao's huge numerical advantage gave Lu Bu a great deterrent when setting up camp. Several Yuan Shao camps were very close to Lu Bu's camp, and they were extremely arrogant.
In Lu Bu's meeting hall, everyone was actively discussing the crisis at hand.
Xun You was the first to stand up and said: "My lord, after Yuan Shao has captured several cities in a devastating manner, the army has approached Guandu, which is full of intimidation.
There are already timid soldiers in the army who are talking timidly in private, worried about losing the war. "
