Chapter 255: Surrender Or Surrender
Chapter 255: Surrender Or Surrender
"My lord, there are only more than 30,000 soldiers in the land of Xuchang. After the screening, there are about 20,000 soldiers who can fight. Even if we add our people, the army is only able to resist 60,000 people.
Compared with other people, Guo Jia is much more rational. Even this data is the data he obtained after calculating according to the various defense facilities in Xuchang City!
He knew very well what would happen if Lu Bu failed to defend Xuchang.
Not only will the previous risky battle of Xuchang lose its effect, but the generals and troops in Yanzhou and Yuzhou will have doubts, and it will be difficult to solve the problem of Yanzhou and Yuzhou when the time comes!
For Guo Jia's judgment, Lu Bu expressed his agreement, but he did not follow Guo Jia's suggestion to take a defensive position, and chose the troops that needed to be sacrificed to abandon the pawns to protect the commander.
On the contrary, Lu Bu directly pulled half of the troops outside the city, and built fortification camps on the spot, even the Beiwei camp was no exception, and they were also stationed in the big camp.
At this moment, only Zhao Yun and Sun Shangxiang were the only generals available in their hands. Of course, after adding Lu Bu, the number of the three of them could surpass the other party's camp of more than a dozen people.
Guo Jia fully expressed doubts about Lu Bu's arrangement.
"Feng Xiao, you are used to making strategic plans under Cao Cao's behavior, it should take a while to understand and adapt to my request!"
Lu Bu said to Guo Jia while orderly ordering the transfer.
Guo Jia's face was full of bewilderment. The reason why he was said to be a genius was because he could come up with a method no matter what time it was.
But at this time, under the influence of Lu Bu's behavior, he was useless.
As for assisting in the analysis of the opponent's military situation, the various documents in Xuchang are enough for Lu Bu to know the situation of the various troops in Yuzhou and Yanzhou.
Faced with this situation, Guo Jia was at a loss for what to do for a while.
As a former general who controlled Yuzhou's army and horses, Zhao Yun was much busier than before.
In addition to arranging the remaining 10,000 troops to strengthen the city defense, he also needed to deal with the 10,000 old, weak, sick and disabled soldiers who had been eliminated.
Although the modification of the garrison outside the city was a bit hasty, under Lu Bu's strong coordination, they still completed this task in less than half a day.
And the nearest unit to here, just after the completion of the city defense, appeared in a place less than ten miles away from Xuchang City.
After returning to a place less than ten miles away from Xuchang City, this army did not show any hostility, but immediately stationed there.
Lu Bu didn't show any doubts. These guys must have maintained a wait-and-see attitude.
"The other party has already set up camp. According to the current camp area, there should be about 15,000 troops. They have not indicated their flags, nor have they expressed any obvious hostility or friendly intentions.
Tanma quickly reported the information he got to Lu Bu.
This result was not as expected by Lu Bu.
"My lord, although I don't know what you think, but if these generals are allowed to garrison on the periphery, the total number of troops will continue to increase, and we will probably be on the verge of riding a tiger!"
After all, Guo Jia couldn't bear it again, and told Lu Bu his thoughts.
Lu Bu nodded slightly, and then said with a smile on his face: "The reason why they dare not act rashly is nothing more than knowing that their army is not strong enough, plus they are afraid of me, that's why this happened."
"`~But this doesn't affect anything, if they don't come to us, we will go to them!"
He said very openly, and then he directly drew out two of Yanyun's eighteen horsemen as his bodyguards, one with Fang Tian's painted halberd on his back, and the other with a seven-star sword.
As for Lu Bu himself, he was unarmed, not even wearing armor.
Only this kind of attire can resolve the opponent's hostility as much as possible. Lu Bu had already made up his mind, so he didn't rush at all.
Guo Jia wanted to stop Lu Bu, which seemed completely reckless and unbelievable to him, but was stopped by Sun Shangxiang.
It was only now that Guo Jia finally came to Ming (Zhao Dezhao). What did Lu Bu mean when he said that he needed a period of time to adapt to the life under Lu Bu's command!
It is simply unheard of for him to use the main general as an envoy to negotiate face to face.
But just one day ago, Lu Bu used this method to take down Xuchang!
When Guo Jia really realized this matter, he finally understood the reason why Sun Shangxiang stopped him.
It seems that I am in the Lu Bu camp, and I still have a lot to learn!
The three of Lu Bu and his party did not spend too much time on the ten-mile journey, but every step of the way involved the hearts of both parties!
