Chapter 57, the general will attack the soldiers who plot to conquer the people, and the talents of the night banquet

*

Qi Han raised his delicate brows and said, "What else can it be?" Naturally, he knew that Liu Bei was coming, and he wanted to discuss countermeasures with Lu Bu. ”

Zhao Yun retracted his thoughts and nodded: "I don't know where Xuande Gong is?"

Qi Han looked at him deeply and sighed secretly in his heart. Shaking his head, he said: "No matter where he is at this time or how far he still has to go, you can relax." As I said, when Liu Bei comes back this time, he can't fight with Lu Bu in a short time. He secretly snapped his fingers and calculated, at this time, there was still more than a year before the battle of Baimen Tower, and the time was simply too much.

Zhao Yun heard the sound outside the strings: "If you can't fight in a short time, there will still be a battle after all." ”

Qi Han let out a "hmm", and suddenly said lightly: "Do you want to help Liu Bei take Xuzhou so much?" he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Zhao Yun cares so much, it seems that he wants to make the first contribution to Liu Bei and lay a solid foundation for the future. Perhaps, he had already decided to follow Liu Bei......

Zhao Yun didn't answer, his eyes drifted away, and he was a little confused in a place that Qi Han couldn't see.

"Not really. ”

Seeing that Qi Han's eyes were slightly dark, he knew that he would be wrong, sighed, raised his hand to rub Qi Han's long hair, and finally said his thoughts.

"Liu Xuande has the grace of knowing me. I promised to help him drive Lu Bu away and recapture Xuzhou, but I really helped him, and I didn't care about the merits or losses, or his status and title in the army. This city was originally given to him by Tao Gongzu San to help him get it back, which is a matter of course. Moreover, in Xuzhou under the rule of Xuande Gong, Li Min lived and worked in peace and contentment, which was indeed much better than Lu Bu. Akan, this time I only want to repay my kindness, and I don't have any other thoughts. As for where I will go from here, I am not yet decided......"

Zhao Yun confessed his confusion to Qi Han. He is not perfect, and naturally there are times when he can't make up his mind, especially when he is still very young, and there are naturally many contradictions and confusions in his heart. Before meeting Qi Han, he was determined to follow Liu Bei. However, it coincided with the Gongyuan War, and it was impossible to get out, and when it came to annexation, it was only a matter of time before it was a matter of time.

Gongsun Zhan has not been handsome for a long time, Zhao Yun is very clear, and he can't see this clearly. He originally thought that Liu Bei was a humble gentleman, humble and humble as a valley, had the people in mind, and was a queen of the Han Dynasty, so he naturally deserved to be assisted by him before he saddled his horse and went to the ground. But that night, Beixincheng borrowed soldiers to drink and feast, and Liu Guanzhang and the others were indeed suspected of bullying the master as guests, which made Qi Han get involved twice, and a seed of hesitation had been planted in his heart. Since then, the intention of being Liu Bei's pawn has not been so firm.

Now it seems that the world is divided and divided, the princes of all parties are competing for deer, and the flies and dogs are all profit-seekers, and Zhao Yun has not yet decided to choose a good lord to assist, so it can only be said that the possibility of following Liu Bei is still the greatest.

Qi Han heard him say sincerely, his eyes lit up, and there was a smile on his lips.

As soon as he was in a good mood, he got up and got out of Zhao Yun's palm, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Since this is the case, then I will help Liu Bei drive the tiger, drive away Lu Bu, and take this Xuzhou!"

Zhao Yun couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he saw that he said that Xuzhou was like a child's plaything.

Qi Han blinked his eyes and said, "What, Ah Yun doesn't believe me?"

Zhao Yun smiled steadily and said, "Don't dare." Who doesn't know that our Qi Gongzi has a unique strategy. ”

Qi Han laughed, forgetting the embarrassment between the two for a while, and said: "The art of war is cloudy: 'Go to the army to plan, then attack the enemy, then attack the army, and attack the city. 'The best tactic is to use stratagem to sabotage the opponent's strategy or war intentions, to destroy the enemy's invisible, and to surrender the enemy without a fight; the inferior means is to use diplomacy to defeat the enemy by attacking horizontally and vertically, from afar and closely; again, the two sides are fighting head-on and fighting hard; and the inferior method is to lose 800 of oneself and wound 1,000 of the enemy, and force the capture of the city. At present, Liu Lu and Lu should be able to get along for the time being, and the best way is to take a peaceful transition and silently take Xuzhou into their hands. Moreover, it is necessary to let Lu Bu give it away, without complaints, and without bloody battles. ”

Zhao Yun saw that his eyes were as bright as stars and extremely bright, and he was unexpectedly distracted for a while. Hooked lips and smiled: "I didn't know that Gongzi Qi had such a vast field? After Wenhou Lu Bu left Chang'an, the wolf rushed to all sides, traveled to the north of Huainan and Hebei, fought for the place of Yanzhou and Xuzhou, and tasted the bitterness of exile. I don't want to be a tiger in a cage and subservient to others, what is the clever plan of Qi Gongzi to be able to replace him peacefully, without spending a single soldier, and make him willing to hand over the Assassin Shi Yinxin?"

Qi Gongzi, Qi Gongzi......

Hearing him make fun of him, Qi Han glanced at him with disgust and said, "Lu Wenhou is brave and strong, and he has the power of ten thousand people. The 8,000 elite iron horsemen under his command are well-equipped and invincible. Among the 40,000 and Liang miscellaneous soldiers, 20,000 cavalry, 20,000 infantry troops, and 1,000 dead soldiers in the Gao Shun camp, it is really unwise to fight with the strength. Even if it is used, there will be many losses. In fact, in my opinion, there is no need to fight with Lu Bu at all, and you can use sugar-coated cannonballs to coax him. ”

Zhao Yun said suspiciously: "Sugar-coated cannonballs, what?"

Qi Han coughed and couldn't help laughing: "It's nothing." I mean, Lu Bu is a tiger wolf, and it is not easy for him to cut off his claws and be willing to attach them. But it's not impossible. He loves wine and wealth the most, so I will do what he likes, teach him the vices of pleasure, and make him indulge in it, and finally he will collapse without attacking. ”

Qi Han's eyebrows flew, and his expression was actually confident, and Zhao Yun also believed a little when he saw this. But then he remembered the intimacy between Lu Bu and Qi Han during the day, and his heart suddenly felt uncomfortable.

If I could, I would like to hide this person. Don't give others a second look. No one but him can approach or touch this man......

As soon as this idea arose, it grew several times like a poisonous ivy, and was immediately rejected by Zhao Yun. He sighed to himself, feeling that his sanity was becoming less and less sober and abnormal.

The night is dark, and the palm lights are bright.

In the forbidden court of the government, Lu Bu set up a feast for Qi and Zhao to wash the dust, silk and bamboo, and the price of wine, food, melons and fruits will be sent up.

Qi Han and Zhao Yun walked in side by side, and the court was already full of four columns of officials and generals, each of whom had a large piece of cooked meat, a few fruits and vegetables, and one or two plates of honey and sour fruits. It's simple, but it's practical. Especially at the dinner time in the evening, just looking at it makes people quite appetizing.

Hou Cheng greeted them at the door, brought them all the way in, and walked towards the innermost one. He was wearing a soft armor robe, with openwork brass shoes on the soles of his feet, and when he walked, the sword on his waist struck the armor, making a "click, click, click" sound. Qi Han looked around and saw that the generals were all wearing solemn armor, while the civil officials were wearing leather crowns and their faces were solemn, and the scene was extremely formal.

Although the surrounding lights are bright, it still seems a little dim to Qi Han, a modern person who is used to seeing neon lights that never sleeps.

He followed Zhao Yun's side, and greeted the ancients who kept getting up to salute him, feeling a little overwhelmed. After all, when he was in Beixincheng, it was just a small corner, and the number of officials attending was limited, which was not as high as Xuzhou Chengzhou, where heroes gathered, and military generals were starry, and even the pomp and circumstance of the banquet seemed much taller and higher-grade.

Lu Bu sat in the first place, condescending. Seeing Zhao Qi and the two coming in from a distance, he propped one hand on his knee and stroked his chin, and looked at the two.

But seeing everyone greeting each other, Zhao Yun's face was full of salutes, without the slightest crampedness, and there was always an appropriate smile on his face, quite a general's style. On the contrary, it was Qi Han, who had just finished meeting the person on the left, and as soon as he turned his head and turned around, he almost bumped into the person on the right.

The two walked up to him in the blink of an eye, and Lu Brown smiled, got up and grabbed his robe to greet him.

"I've seen Wen Hou. ”

The two bowed in unison. Lu Bu hurriedly helped, asked the two of them to sit down on the right side, and said, "In a hurry, I have to prepare some thin wine and rough roast." I also hope that the two sages will not be held responsible. ”

Zhao Yun said: "How dare you, I was about to thank Wen Hou for his generous hospitality." ”

Qi Han thought about it, this banquet really seemed to be set up to welcome himself and Zhao Yun, and he couldn't help but feel that there was light on his face, and then said politely: "Wine and food, just smelling it will make your index finger move." Wen Hou has a heart. ”

When Lu Bu heard him say this, he was quite happy: "What Qi Han said about Lanling Jiali before, I have prepared a number of celebrities, but today I want to get drunk! Come, share the table with me." As he spoke, he actually took Qi Han's hand and went to his first seat.

Zhao Yun suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the sleeve of Qi Han's other robe.

Qi Han was controlled by a powerful force, and he was stunned. He was slightly stunned, didn't have time to think about it, looked up and said to Lu Bu: "No." Wen Hou grew up, I'm afraid of squeezing you. After speaking, he turned around and sat down with Zhao Yun on the right hand side.

Lu Bu looked down at himself, pretending to be shocked and said, "It turns out that I shouldn't be so tall!" After speaking, he laughed, reprimanded his robe and turned back to his seat.

Qi Han smiled in agreement, and knew in his heart that Lu Bunai really wanted to make friends with him. In this era, etiquette is quite stressed, that is, on the feast, everyone has a small table to eat their own food, and only people who have a particularly good relationship will eat and eat at the same table, and sleep together.

The waiter kept bringing wine and food to put it on, Qi Han lowered his head and glanced at his desk, and was surprised to find that no matter the meat plate, fruits and vegetables, preserves, and pastries, they were all richer than others. In the afternoon, the few flavors of prey hanging on the back of the red rabbit seemed to be among them, could it be that Lu Bu cooked his prey and gave it to him to eat? Looking at the Lanling wine brewing next to it, there was also a small deerskin sac, Qi Han easily opened the stopper, and a strong milky fragrance came to his nose, and the sac was warm. He knew that this was a special treatment given to him by Lu Bu, so he raised his skin bag and signaled to him, indicating that he had received a good intention, and Lu Bu nodded and smiled back.
