Chapter 339 Three visits to the cottage, the two teenagers offer their own suggestions
At this time, Lu Bu might only be described as the word "sad". In a three-party battlefield like Jingzhou, although he did not seem to be at a disadvantage for the time being, everyone knows that the current situation is already in danger for him.
As the war entered a stalemate, the local gentry in Nanjun naturally became increasingly dissatisfied with Lu Bu. To be honest, the situation has become like this now, and Cai Mao and Kuai Yue are actually more willing to defect to Sun Ce.
After all, it seems that they have been stable to surrender to the court now, and Sun Ce is at least in a way that he is governed by the river.
So for granted, these Nanjun people, the local tyrants who still occupy a large number of lower-level officials, have become more and more perfunctory in implementing the orders of Lu Bu, the lord of Jingzhou. Even Lu Bu himself knew that this would not work. If this continues, it will be enough to kill him, whether it is the reinforcements of the court or Sun Ce himself.
Really, Lu Bu missed Chen Gong very much now, and regretted why he loved that face, but he didn't go to pursue Gao Shun in person.
If Chen Gong is still there, I think he will definitely be able to come up with an idea to help him resolve the crisis at this time, right?
Why was it that I was the lord of Jingzhou two days ago and looked like I wanted to achieve hegemony? Why did I have the end of my journey in such a short time?
The so-called trapped beasts are still fighting, and rabbits even bite people when they are anxious, let alone Lu Bu?
When things came to an end, I remembered the life-saving straw: Zhuge Liang.
I heard that this person has the talent of the top scholar. Perhaps, how capable can he have?
So in the afternoon of that day, Zhuge Liang ordered Shutong to push him to the yard outside to bask in the sun, and under the service of his wife Huang Yueying, he changed the plaster for his broken leg. He was studying the Jian'an ceremony with Xu Shu, Pang Tong, Ma Liang, Xi Zhen and other three or five friends. When he saw the servant stumble in panic again: "It's not good, it's not good~, Young Master, no, no, no, Lu Bu, Lu Bu is here again~, this time he came with his soldiers wearing armor~, ferocious."
Zhuge Liang frowned tightly when he heard this, but Pang Tong sighed from the side: "Lu Bu is now at the end of his life, I'm afraid the person who comes is not good."
Seeing this, Xi Zhen said, "Lu Bu is afraid that this is a mad dog now. Kongming, don't force him to do anything, otherwise he might do something to protect his useful body, and then he will have a future."
When Xu Shu heard this, he said angrily: "Can he still tie Kongming to Jiangling with a rope? Or is he going to take the world's worst and kill Kong Ming and us? Aren't he afraid that the Jingzhou gentry will be disloyal to him?"
When everyone heard this, they sighed.
If it were someone else, of course he wouldn't really tie someone up with a rope, but who is the other person? It's Lu Bu! What can't be done with this mad dog? Besides, the gentry in Jingzhou is already separated from Lu Bu?
But suddenly a heroic laugh came from outside, but Lu Bu kicked the door open from outside and rushed into the yard with his troops.
"Hahahahahahahaha~, I came to invite Kong Ming and you to be officials to make you official, and you are not punished. Why are you dead and alive? Is this unreasonable person in your eyes?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the knights who came with Lu Bu had already surrounded them, pulled out their weapons on their elbows and shouted: "Please all the scholars to join the government!"
Everyone changed their color when they saw this, but Xu Shu gritted his teeth and actually came out with a sword, scolding: "There are still female relatives in the back house. Why didn't Master Zhou Mu come in?! Is there anyone who asks someone like this? Do you want to hire someone or tie someone up? The so-called wealth and honor cannot be lustful, and the mighty cannot bend..."
Before he could finish his words, Lu Bu stepped forward, completely ignoring the sword in Xu Shu's hand. He actually clamped Xu Shu with one arm, pulled Xu Shu's pants off with the other hand, revealing his snow-white butt, and hit him with a crackling sound, and it was swollen in just a few strokes.
"Wow, a soldier can be killed but not humiliated, a soldier can be killed but not humiliated, Lu Bu, you have the ability to kill me, you kill me!"
"If you scold me, I will beat you out. Think about it, you really want to scold me?"
“…………”
When Xu Shu heard this, he closed his mouth tactfully.
Lu Bu threw him away with a smile and said, "Everyone, the governor of this state is really eager to seek talent. Please come with me."
Seeing this, Zhuge Liang had to speak. When he saw him sitting in a wheelchair, he bowed gracefully and said: "The general is famous in the world, and everyone knows it. The virtue and talent who are willing to serve the general must be like the Jiang Zhiqing. We are not talented and knowledgeable. Whether we have qualifications or experience, we are not enough to take on great responsibilities. It is certainly our wish to become an official, but if we do not do well, wouldn't it be a big deal for the general?"
The implication is that we are all forced to take office by you, and we must be resentful. Aren’t you afraid that we will make trouble for you on purpose?
When Lu Bu heard this, he laughed and said, "It's okay, the governor of the province built a large mansion in Jiangling City, which is enough to bring all your wives and parents to enjoy the blessings. If any of you are not honest or do something wrong, the governor of the province will kill your whole family."
"You..." Xu Shu, who had just put on his pants, was about to curse again, but Lu Bu glared at him and said, "If you scold me, I will kill the whole family."
“…………”
"Haha, coward."
However, Xu Shu was so angry that his face turned red, but when he thought about his mother at home, he still threw the sword in his hand hard.
Zhuge Liang was really holding Lu Bu at this moment and had no choice but to say, "General, I heard that the forced melon is not sweet. If the general does this, he will gain our people and our hearts, so why bother?"
"I don't know if it's sweet or not. I just want to turn off the melon I value. If I can't get it, it's better than if I can't get it. Kong Ming thought this is the reason?"
Zhuge Liang looked directly at Lu Bu and said for a while: "My leg is broken."
"It's broken and it's not the neck."
Zhuge Liang took Xu Shu's sword and put it on his neck and asked, "What if his neck was broken?"
"Then I will kill all of you and your family, and then slaughter the entire Longzhong and bury you Mr. Kong Ming with you."
Zhuge Liang had no choice but to sigh and throw the sword.
You are unreasonable and you are awesome.
"In this way, Liang has seen the general. Shu Liang is injured in his leg and cannot give his full tribute."
"Well, there is no need for the whole ceremony. The governor of this state intends to let Kong Ming, you become the Sima of this state. The governor of this state is now full of trouble by Sun Ce, and he has no time to consolidate the army. What kind of trick does Zhuge Sima have to help me?"
But he actually planned to ask for advice on the spot.
Zhuge Liang turned his head to look at his yard. The soldiers of Lu Bu stood all over his personal soldiers, but they didn't take their knives. But he saw Lu Bu saying, "Zhuge Sima, you have decided, if you are not satisfied with this state, you will kill people."
"Oh~"
To be honest, Zhuge Liang really has a solution to the problem. He had actually thought about this issue for a long time, but Lu Bu is so bullying, how could he be willing to give advice for Lu Bu?
"Um……"
After thinking about it, Zhuge Liang said, "I think Sun Ce is not afraid. At present, his troops and Zhou Yu's navy are all relying on Jiangxia. Huang Zu from Anlu is still there. Why would the general want to guard Jiangling with a good general, and personally lead the main force to join General Huo Jun from Xiangyang and be a team of troops. First, he defeated Wenpin's Nanyang army, and then walked to Anlu to capture Huang Zu's elite troops, and then went south to attack Xiakou, which cut off Sun Ce's return? In this case, Gao Shun must not be able to hold on sooner or later."
"Go out of Xiangyang and go north? Go to Suzao Pass to Xiakou? Is this... changing homes with Sun Ce?"
"That's right, this is a surprise attack on him."
This... this plan sounds true at first glance, and Lu Bu was even moved.
However, although Lu Bu was unable to understand his current position, his military strategy was not bad. Moreover, he had been with Yuan Shu for a while and could not tell the terrain of Nanyang, Nanjun and Jiangxia counties, but he had a rough understanding of the terrain of Nanyang, Nanjun and Jiangxia counties.
After thinking about it carefully for a while, I immediately realized: "Are you asking me to cut Sun Ce's retreat? If Sun Ce attacks Jiangling, I will cut my retreat! Then is the Suzao Pass so easy to walk? If there is a slight accident on such a long route, I will lose all my efforts!"
As he said that, Lu Bu suddenly pulled out his weapons and hovered in front of Zhuge Liang: "You are cheating me!"
Seeing this, Zhuge Liang sighed with a loss in his heart.
It was too hasty. He couldn't imagine a plan that could kill Lu Bu, which sounded reasonable and could make Lu Bu believe, so he immediately waited for death.
Pang Tong hurriedly stepped forward to block Zhuge Liang and said, "Don't worry, my relative is studying in Longzhong all day long. How could he know any military strategy? (Zhuge Liang's sister is Pang Tong's sister-in-law). Look, he never went to Jiangxia all day long, and he had never been to Jiangxia. How could he understand the broken terrain of Suzao Pass? In Xia Pang Tong, thanks to his friends' praise, he also has the title of the crown of the Jingzhou scholar. What if I do not plan for the general?"
"Say, plan, I'll beg you to be my Jingzhou. If you dare to cheat me, I'll let you all accompany him to break your neck."
"Yes, sir, I think that all the troops in Changsha County on the southern front should be withdrawn. Now Changsha County has become a useless piece. Since that is the case, why not just give up Changsha, so that Gao Shun can have enough energy and let the two families restrain each other? And sir, you just need to lead the troops and Sun Ce to win one victory in Nanjun, even if you only have one victory in Nanjun, this so-called way of survival will naturally be there."
“Where is the road?”
"The road is in Xichuan! As long as we can defeat Sun Ce in a small battle, let him know that he is eager to capture Jiangling, the Lord of the Prefecture might as well send someone to talk to Sun Ce, and cede Changsha and Jingnan all the four counties, and then the two families form an alliance to resist the court. Lord, you only need to use General Huo Jun to defend Xiangyang, and personally lead a team of troops out of Yiling, and take Zhao Wei's troops for your own use. Then the land of Yizhou is within your fingertips. Why are you still fighting with him on this one-acre and three-point land in Jingzhou to the end?"
"Enter allies with Sun Ce? He takes Jingnan, I take Yizhou? This... Yes, when Gongtai was alive, he once advised me to make good friends with Sun Ce and then take the land of Yizhou Tianfu for my own use. In this way, the two of us divided the land south of the river and could compete with the court based on the mountains and rivers, and watch the changes in the Central Plains."
After saying that, Lu Bu nodded with satisfaction, then immediately showed a bright smile on his face, grabbed Pang Tong's hand with both hands and said, "I get Shiyuan, it's like a fish in water! I'll make you an appointment, and you will be Pang Shiyuan, I'm the one who is not in Jingzhou, hahaha."
