.It was me who started the fire myself.Liu Jun's face darkened. The other party had made a lot of preparations, quite interesting.Fire Affinity: Was interrupted twice and couldn't use it. The area-of-...Lu Cheng's words were compelling and the evidence was irrefutable, yet something felt amiss.
But obviously, the current defenders of Luoyang City couldn't possibly allow Lü Ceng and his men to guard Hulaoguan. Wouldn't that be like having a knife held to their own throats
Jia Xu saw the general's hesitation. He knew Liu Biao wouldn't have any interest in this place, likely because he was unwilling to invest. So, he said beside him, "You can tell Lord Liu Biao that repairing Luoyang requires a huge investment. Does he have any ideas If we take over, we will return all the money and grain of Lord Liu Biao here as they are."
When Liu Biao was persuaded, he spent a little money to build a Yang'an Hall. Of course, Lu Cheng didn't find it rare at all.
To call this a palace is an exaggeration, it's barely even enough to cover one's head.
However, if you want to peacefully take over this place, you certainly can't let Liu Biao suffer a loss.
When the deputy heard this, his face finally looked a little better. This way, he could report to Zhang Yang and Liu Biao with something to say.
He immediately summoned a soldier and sent him back to report to his lord.
A group of people walked towards the inner city, chatting as they went.
Lu Cheng looked at the current state of Luoyang and couldn't help but frown.
"This Luoyang City was actually burned so thoroughly"
What meets the eye is all coke, and the terrifying flames of that year melted everything.
Lu Cheng remembered that in the book, Luoyang City had not been burned so thoroughly. Otherwise, Cao Cao might have given up on rebuilding and repairing it that year.
"What adults don't know is that when the Grand Tutor gave the order to burn the city, Li Ru, using the power of fortune tellers, divided Luoyang into sections and triggered an earthquake, causing a fire that completely burned this prosperous city to the ground."
You discovered the legendary spell card [Earth Fire Devastation].
"No wonder Cao Cao wasn't interested at all," Lu Cheng shook his head.
Besides the Yin soldiers, it's really difficult to establish a foothold here in the early stages.
"Cao Cao wasn't without interest, it's just that Yuan Shao was in the way. He couldn't break free and he had no money either. Luoyang is a strategically important city, there's no way he wouldn't be interested." Jia Xu whispered.
"Let's just wait and see how Liu Biao responds. I guess he won't make things difficult for us. This place is far from his base, he made a little money, and gained some reputation. He wouldn't be willing to continue burning down property and wasting resources here," Lu Cheng replied.
Liu Biao soon learned of this.
Immediately, he summoned Kuai Liang for a discussion.
"Kuai Liang, that Western Liang military governor Hua Xiong has some renown, and he also has the famous general Lu Cheng assisting him at Hu Lao Pass. It would be unwise to make an enemy of him, don't you think"
Of course, people today wouldn't connect Lü Cheng with the Wind-Riding General of 300 years ago, but it is certainly true that he was a famous general.
This Western Liang army general is no pushover either.
"My lord, this is a great thing!" Kuai Liang said. "Luoyang is scorched earth, useless to our army. Leaving it for the Western Liang army can greatly divert the attention of the warlords in Sili."
"Cao Cao is currently overwhelmed and I estimate that Yuzhou will soon fall into Yuan Gong's hands. With Huaxiong's Western Liang army inserting itself into this situation now, what do you think he intends to do" Liu Biao mused.
"My lord, think about it. Ma Teng from Xiliang and Dong Zhuo have always been at odds. After Dong Zhuo's death, his troops - the Bingzhou Army and the Xiliang Army - scattered. Li Jue, Guo Si, and Fan Chou were defeated in Sili by all sides, while Hua Xiong remained in Xiliang. Could Ma Teng possibly tolerate him" Kuai Liang thought for a moment before saying.
"Then let's leave Luoyang to them for now." Liu Biao waved his hand and issued an order.
"My lord, there is one more thing," Kuai Liang said. "Although they are willing to return the property, I believe that my lord should not accept it. First, the money and goods are not much. During transportation, a large amount will be lost due to wear and tear. Second, we can do them a favor."
"Okay, that's the plan."
You added 【Loyang (Ruins)】 to your deck!
Now you can perform domain card exploration and customization.
This was then copied onto a domain card.
It seems that in times of chaos, territory is not very valuable.
...only now this picture of [Luoyang City], there are no rumors, it's just a purple card.
Li Cheng dispatched Huo Qubing to investigate the surrounding terrain and gather geographical clues, which was his specialty.
While Aqing explored inside Luoyang City.
The sword cultivator's speed was incredibly fast, and she could even ignore physical mass. Perhaps she could discover some good places.
While Lü Cheng needed to discuss with Jia Xu and make some plans for the deployment of troops.
Lu Cheng told Jia Xu many possible messages, leaving him astonished.
"My Lord, the world is ever-changing. However, in the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao should still prevail. After recovering his strength, he will become the most powerful force. I believe that if my Lord wants to orchestrate a grand battle, we should prepare in advance, pushing multiple forces to the forefront and letting them fight while we remain hidden behind the scenes," Jia Xu said.
As expected, very much in Jia Xu's style.
Lu carefully considered Jia Xu's words.
"We are entering Luoyang now, and everyone is watching us. The key here is how we can effectively conceal ourselves from all the factions, blend in with them, and plant huge threats for each one individually. Then, at the right moment, we detonate." Lu Cheng said.
Jia Xu nodded.
This general, at first glance, seems more trustworthy than Li Kuai and Guo Si.
If Lü Cheng knew Jia Xu's thoughts, he would definitely scoff at him. At the very least, he was Zhuge Liang's junior student, not that wise, but he couldn't be called stupid either.
"My lord, this is not difficult. We can hide in plain sight. If we befriend all the surrounding forces, then in Cao Cao's eyes, we will become a major threat. But if we act high-profile and become an obvious target, it would be like being a fat sheep. By feuding with figures like Ma Teng of Liangzhou and Liu Zhang of Yizhou, and creating the appearance that we are on the verge of collapse, surrounded by enemies, Cao Cao's attitude will change." Jia Xu said.
wonderful.
As expected, fistfights are a solo effort, wars rely on Brother Huo, and the strategy still falls to these guys!
If Luoyang is fat and prickly, he might get beaten up. Even then, Cao Cao would have to help him out, so that Luoyang wouldn't fall and Cao Cao wouldn't be in hot water.
"In Cao Cao's eyes, we are nothing more than livestock raised for slaughter. He watches us grow stronger, watches us fight, and manipulates the surrounding forces to weaken us constantly. But he will not allow us to be devoured by others. We must become a bowl of mutton soup that the Prime Minister can swallow at any time to replenish his strength," Jia Xu said.
"Then poison in the soup" Lu Cheng raised an eyebrow.
Jia Xu smiled lightly, understanding in his heart.
You obtained the strategy 【Treacherous Scheme "Luoyang Luyang!"】.
Jia Xu's skill activates, if you have gathered all the Poisonous Scheme cards, you can inflict massive damage to all army cards in the scheme.
"This sounds simple, but we are in a precarious position. It's like dancing on the edge of a knife; it's not easy. Let's break it down one by one. First, Ma Teng has long wanted to go to Liangzhou. He is a major threat to us." Lu Cheng said, "If Ma Teng's army attacks in full force, our army will be in danger!"
"My lord, Liangzhou is not wealthy, and its supply lines are extremely difficult. Large-scale military operations can be predicted by food requisition. We can secretly buy merchants, set up trading caravans, and control grain prices. By working on this aspect, when the time comes, war will not be something Ma Teng can initiate at will."
You acquired the scheme "A Toxic Plan: Liangzhou Liangzhou!"
