Rebirth God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 20: Horse Trading

"If Wentai has something to say, you don't need to be polite." Lu Bu laughed.

"Brother Feng, I see the elite cavalry in the Bingzhou army, and I am yearning for it. I want to form a cavalry, but I have few horses in the south. I wonder if Fengxian can sell them to some of the next horses?" Sun Jian stared at Lu Bu with a burning gaze.

Cavalry is a weapon on the battlefield. With cavalry, the army can get the enemy's movements faster and earlier. Since the last time he saw the style of Bingzhou cavalry, he has been preparing. All the horses in the general are gathered in one, day and night. Training, but the effect is not ideal, there is still a big gap between the war horses in the Central Plains and the war horses in Bingliang and other places.

Even with war horses, there is still a big gap in their riding skills. The formation of a cavalry is not an overnight success. It requires the cavalry to have good horse control skills and be able to complete various actions on the war horse, otherwise it will become Infantry on a horse.

"Wentai, I won't go around in circles anymore. It's okay to want war horses, but I need to exchange materials of the same value, such as food, grass, iron, and money."

"Fengxian is really a cheerful person, but the army is out on the expedition, and there is not enough food and grass, and it is difficult to get together for a while." Sun Jian's joy also turned into loneliness.

"It doesn't matter, I can first fund the Wentai 500 horses, just in terms of price?"

"Thank you Fengxian." Sun Jian said gratefully.

"You my brother, a horse, I'll give you four thousand dollars." Lu Bu patted Sun Jian on the shoulder.

"Four thousand?" Sun Jian grinned. Four thousand is the price of forty stone rice. A family of three can eat for a year. A war horse needs three stones of grain and grass every month, plus the rest, to support a war horse. It's like raising two soldiers.

"It's a deal." Sun Jian gritted his teeth and agreed. The price of 4,000 yuan is not too high. I am afraid that some of the princes are rushing to ask for it, and Lu Bu can sell it to him is already a great enthusiasm. When Ma Teng and Gongsun Zan hit a wall, the princes of the Central Plains guarded the princes of the frontier, and the princes of the frontier were not fools.

"Five hundred war horses, I will send General Cao to send them to Wentai at the latest tomorrow." Lv Bu was also a little happy when a business was completed. Enthusiasm is enough, and only soldiers and food can have the right to speak.

"Brother Feng, our army is short of war horses, and the riding skills of our soldiers are somewhat weak. Can we send cavalry to teach them?" Sun Jian asked expectantly.

"Yes." Lu Bu readily agreed, as long as the stirrups were not exposed, the Bingzhou cavalry would have a great advantage among the princes.

After leaving the Bingzhou barracks, Sun Jian was also in high spirits. He seemed to have seen the scene of the cavalry sweeping the battlefield.

Dong Zhuo, who was still dissatisfied with the tyranny of levies, dug the tombs where the emperors of the past dynasties were buried, and filled carts with carts of gold and silver jewelry.

At this time, under the "violent" offensive of the Allies, the guard at Hulao would surrender after hearing that Dong Zhuo had abandoned Luoyang and left.

When the Allies arrived at Luoyang City, the fire was still not extinguished, and the village was deserted, so Yuan Shao had to order the army to station in the wasteland.

Sun Jian took the lead and went to Luoyang to put out the fire.

Yuan Shao, who felt that he had made great contributions, began to think about it. Although Luoyang City was burnt down by the fire, he was still the number one person in the world. No one could compare. This kind of credit and fame is enough to shine on the lintel. The action told the Yuan family that he was the first member of the Yuan family.

"The leader of the alliance, now Dong Zhuo is holding the sage and heading west, the army is just about to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but the leader of the alliance does not move, why?" Cao Cao said anxiously with an angry expression on his face.

The princes in the tent stopped touting each other and turned their attention to Yuan Shao. At this time, as long as Yuan Shao gave an order, the princes had no choice but to attack.

"Mengde, the feudal lords have been fighting for days and days, and they are already exhausted and exhausted.

Chasing the thief Dong is useless. "Yuan Shao reassured.

Cao Cao snorted coldly and said, "Dong thief burned Luoyang, robbed the emperor, the world was shaken, and I didn't know where to go. At this time of death, the world can be settled in a battle, why are you hesitant to go forward?"

"Meng De, the three armies are exhausted, don't move rashly." Yuan Shu advised, and the rest of the lords persuaded one after another.

Cao Cao said angrily, "Short sons are not enough and there is a plan." After speaking, he walked away, leading more than ten thousand troops, and Xingye went to chase Dong Zhuo.

Lu Bu shook his head, then walked out of the vassal's tent, ordered troops and horses, and Lu Chenglian led the troops and the wounded in the army to Bingzhou ahead of schedule.

The next day, he led the remaining 7,000 soldiers away with Cao's army. In this battle, regardless of the outcome, he did not intend to come back. The allied army of the princes was already dead in name only. Dong Zhuo is now the richest man in the world. Su's response, robbery, the people will have money and money, and the development of the state is not an empty talk.

When Dong Zhuo went to Xingyang, the prefect Xu Rong went out to greet him. Li Ru said, "The prime minister has abandoned Luoyang. To prevent the princes from chasing troops, you can teach Xu Rong to ambush his troops outside Xingyang city. If the army is defeated, and then intercepts and covers up, it will surely make the princes panic and dare not send troops to pursue them.”

Dong Zhuo listened to Li Ru's advice and ordered Hua Xiong to lead 10,000 elite soldiers behind him, only waiting for the feudal army to kill him.

"Xiaguan is willing to stay behind," Li Su said.

"Okay, Wei Gong will lead 5,000 elite soldiers to assist General Niu in escorting grain and grass." Dong Zhuo's trust in Niu Fu was naturally not comparable to Li Su's, and he didn't care about Li Su's invitation to fight.

Cao Cao led the army to chase after him overnight, and the scouts sent out batch after batch. What they got was basically the news of the misery of the people and the brutality of Dong's army.

"Speed ​​up the march, make sure to catch up with the old bandit Dong Zhuo." Cao Cao urged.

"My lord, Dong Zhuo's old thief is all elites, and our army has only ten thousand people, so be careful." Cao Ren advised.

"The Holy One is in trouble. As ministers, how can I shrink back?" Cao Cao said firmly.

Seeing this, the generals of Cao Jun could not persuade him any more, and could only keep urging the troops to advance.

After chasing him overnight, Cao Cao's army was trapped and his horses were exhausted. Suddenly, the drums in front were loud, and Hua Xiong led his troops to suddenly rush out.

Hua Xiong laughed loudly and said, "As expected by Master Li, there are indeed princes chasing troops and killing them with this general!"

Cao Cao rode his horse out and scolded: "Rebels, robbing the emperor, exiling the people, capture them before dismounting, or else the army will be wiped out as soon as the army arrives."

Hua Xiong scolded back: "Courageous coward, dare to fight me!"

Xiahou Dun jumped on his horse with his spear and attacked Huaxiong. The two were fighting together, and there was no winner. Suddenly, a thunderous drum sounded from the left, and Li Jue led an army and attacked from the left.
