Article 529 Give back to the other in his way
"Lord, lord!"
Chen Zhi walked quickly into the room,
The face is a little ugly,
Hesitant not knowing how to speak.
Liu Bei squinted and looked over,
Seeing Chen's expression at this moment,
I also know that this is certainly not good news,
Snorted lightly and said:
"Uncle Zhi, just say it."
Chen Zhi cautiously glanced at Liu Bei,
Only then did he make up his mind to speak:
"Lord, now the people in the city are panicking, rumors are spreading, and there are many big families, they, they ......"
"They've started to shut down and get prepared, aren't they?"
Chen Zhi looked up at Liu Bei,
Then he lowered his head deeply,
He did not open his mouth to continue talking.
Liu Bei sighed a little tiredly,
waved his hand to signal him to stand aside,
After Chen Zhi left the room,
Liu Bei rubbed his brows,
Whispered with emotion:
"This Cao family kid is so ruthless."
Sima Fu gritted his teeth,
Suddenly, he said:
"Lord, the atmosphere in the city is not right now, are we ......?"
Although Sima Fu did not open his mouth to continue,
But the hand stretched out than a downward cut gesture,
The implications are self-evident.
Liu Bei turned his head and looked at Sima Fu deeply,
The eyes are as deep as the abyss,
The atmosphere became a little solemn for a while,
bowed his head and muttered for a long time,
Liu Bei finally shook his head,
"This plan is not possible, and now that people's hearts are fluctuating, we must not do unwise acts. The only way to do this is to remove those threats! ”
Sima Fu heard this,
I couldn't help but sigh,
Shut your mouth and say no more,
It's not without a strategy,
It's just that kind of strategy wants to succeed,
The price to pay is too great,
Although Sima Fu won Liu Bei's trust,
But at this sensitive moment,
If such a plan is proposed,
is indeed challenging Liu Bei's patience.
After waiting for a long time, Sima Fu still didn't speak.
Liu Bei had no choice but to ask again:
"Shuda, how many of those ninjas are there in this city?"
Sima Fu raised his eyebrows,
It seems that Liu Bei thought of a place with him,
Without thinking, he replied:
"Back to my lord, there are now thirty-two ninjas in the city."
After Liu Bei heard this amount,
His face showed joy,
But before his joy spreads,
Sima Fu's next words made his face freeze,
"However, most of these ninjas are low-level ninjas who have cultivated to the most ordinary level, and most of them are good at spying on intelligence."
"So, huh—"
Liu Bei couldn't help but sigh softly,
After a long silence,
Suddenly, my eyes lit up,
"Are these people good at stealth?"
Sima Fu nodded when he heard this,
"It's nature, it's their housekeeping skills."
After a pause, Sima Fu asked rhetorically:
"My lord, but you want to make these ninjas infiltrate Lu Bu's army and destroy those trebuchets?"
Liu Bei's one-arm raised,
Stroking the long beard under the chin,
A pair of eyes narrowed slightly,
"Does Shuda think this plan is feasible?"
Sima Fu's brows furrowed slightly,
asked him why he didn't dare to say this plan before,
"The importance of the trebuchet is self-evident, Cao Ang Xiao'er must be strictly guarded, there is no master among these ninjas, among these tens of thousands of troops, they are only afraid that there is no ...... return"
The corners of Liu Bei's mouth showed a sinister smile,
The words spoken are as piercing as ice,
"So what, as long as you can destroy those few things, it's not a matter of worrying about these guys dying."
For Liu Bei's cold-bloodedness,
Sima Fu has long understood,
Hearing such words at this moment,
There won't be any surprises at all.
He had something else in mind.
"My lord, Xia Guan feels that if all these ninjas are thrown to destroy the trebuchet, not only will they not be able to make the best use of them, but they will make us fall into a more passive situation."
"Oh? What do you mean by that? ”
Liu Bei looked at Sima Fu with interest,
The latter's brow furrowed tightly,
bowed his head and groaned for a long time,
After waiting for the plan in my mind to be flawed,
Only then did he slowly raise his head,
Whispered to Liu Bei about the plan he had just come up with.
Liu Bei quietly listened to Sima Fu's words,
The face was slightly startled at first,
Then a smile slowly emerged,
And the smile spreads,
In the end, I couldn't help but slap my thighs with my palms,
Yang Tian let out a loud laugh,
This laughter is incomparably joyful,
swept away the depression that had been suffocating for days.
"Good! Good! Good! ”
After the laughter stopped,
Liu Bei still couldn't help but say yes three times in a row,
Stretching out his thumb to Sima Fu,
Without hesitation, he praised:
"Shuda is really a god and a man! According to this plan, this matter can be all entrusted to you! ”
"This is what is within the Fu Division!"
Sima Fu hurriedly got up,
Respectfully and deeply bowed.
Before Sima Fu left,
Another thing came to mind,
Taking advantage of Liu Bei's happiness, he hurriedly reminded him of the old words:
"My lord, there is another thing, now the hearts of the people in the city are fluctuating, especially those big families, such an act may cause a lot of trouble, and may even cause panic among the people in the city, do we need to take corresponding measures?"
After a pause, Sima Fu hurriedly continued:
"The lower officials know that the lord is kind-hearted, but they can't be too lenient with those villains, otherwise they will mistakenly think that the lord has lost confidence, but they will not understand the lord's good intentions for their generosity and kindness.
Sima Fu's words were very tactful,
But a character like Liu Bei,
Naturally, I heard it clearly,
In fact, back this morning,
saw the "surrender documents" thrown in by Cao Ang on the city,
Liu Bei had already expected such a result,
This is also what he had consulted with Sima Fu before,
The means that the other side will take,
It's just that they couldn't have guessed it at the beginning.
That Cao Ang was able to use such a method,
Not to mention the countless pieces of paper,
Although I know by looking at the texture,
Not a good paper,
But in this day and age,
The price of paper is very high.
Even the cheapest paper,
Throwing away money like this,
But not everyone can afford it,
One more thing,
It's all the paper with the same handwriting printed on it.
If someone transcribs it,
But it's impossible to be exactly the same,
But if it weren't,
How, exactly, is this done?
This made Liu Bei and them puzzled,
It can only be attributed to the fact that the other party has been prepared.
But it is precisely because of these two points that it is unexpected,
Therefore, Liu Bei was also a little blind for a while,
At first he thought,
In this city, there are also fine works arranged by Cao Ang,
It may be that they will spread rumors,
In this case, even if the other party spreads,
Liu Bei also has plenty of time to respond,
can ensure that the rumors are controlled within a certain range,
However, Cao Ang's hand,
directly broke their assumptions,
The "surrender document" that fell like a goddess scattering flowers,
It's simply pervasive in Anqiu City,
Although it is only those civilian areas near the city gates,
Although Sima Fu made a quick decision,
Control measures were taken as quickly as possible.
But whether it is Liu Bei,
Or Sima Fu,
It's all very clear,
This thing must have been spread everywhere in the city,
Moreover, if effective measures cannot be taken,
I'm afraid the effect will only get worse.
However, if you really go on a killing spree,
Not only can we not stop this momentum,
It's only going to make things worse.
Liu Bei, who is familiar with people's hearts,
I see this very thoroughly,
Therefore, when Sima Fu proposed to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys,
He weighed the pros and cons for a long time,
In the end, such a request was not agreed.
Now Sima Fu brings up the old things again,
Liu Bei also had to frown again,
Sima Fu's worries are not groundless,
Now the situation is very delicate,
And, in general,
At least before the news of Lu Bu's death spread,
The pressure on them is enormous.
At this time, there is no room for a little slip-up,
Therefore the hearts of the people in the city are turned back,
It becomes particularly prominent and important.
Liu Bei stretched out his hand and rubbed his sore eyebrows,
Bowed his head and fell into deep thought,
I couldn't think of a suitable way to do it.
"Lord, it's better to ......"
Sima Fu's cautious voice sounded again,
Liu Bei hurriedly looked up,
I saw that his expression regained his composure and indifference,
Obviously, I still have a plan in my heart,
After seeing Sima Fu's expression,
Liu Bei's heart was determined for no reason,
Hurriedly asked:
"Shuda has a clever plan!?"
Sima Fu shook his head and said:
"I can't talk about a clever plan, but it can also make Cao Ang's demagogic plan ineffective, at least so that he won't succeed so easily."
When Liu Bei heard this, his heart was even more joyful,
Hurriedly asked:
"Will the plan be released?"
"Give back to the other in his way."
"Give back to the other in his own way?"
Liu Bei looked at Sima Fu suspiciously,
"Do you want those ninjas to spread rumors among their army?"
"No, no, no."
Sima Fu shook his head slightly,
Stomp forward a few steps:
"Lord, the reason why the hearts of the people in the city are fluctuating, the 'surrender document' thrown in by Cao Ang today is just an inducement."
Liu Bei raised his eyebrows,
I didn't ask,
Waiting for Sima Fu to continue to explain.
"The main reason for this is that the current passive situation of our army has caused many people in the city to lose confidence. Does the Lord think so? ”
Liu Bei frowned and thought for a while,
I nodded involuntarily,
"The main sticking point is still on the catapult. If our army can defeat those catapults, the rumors will be dispelled, and the people in the city will be able to stabilize again. However, although our army has a clever plan now, if it wants to be realized, it will take several days to destroy it, so in these few days, our army must not only deal with the attack of Lu Bu's army, but also stabilize the hearts of the people in the city as soon as possible. ”
Liu Bei involuntarily followed Sima Fu's train of thought,
"Since the enemy army is spreading the talk of 'surrendering', we might as well spread the news of Lu Bu's death, we only need to find out some so-called 'evidence', and the people in the city will naturally be suspicious, as long as we can reach this level, when those trebuchets are destroyed in the future, the people's hearts can be owned by our army!"
Liu Bei's eyes lit up,
"It's a good idea."
"However, this plan is only one aspect, for those gentry and big families, we also need to make an example of the monkeys to set an example and suppress this momentum as soon as possible."
Heard this,
Liu Bei finally agreed,
Such a gentle means,
Plus a little bit of coolness,
Naturally, he can firmly grasp the hearts of the people in the city,
This is also a trick that Liu Bei has always been good at,
He nodded slightly,
Whispered:
"Then Lord Rausma will once again be the wicked man."
Sima Fu smiled knowingly,
Hurriedly lowered his head slightly:
"That's what it's supposed to do."
Sima Fu hurriedly left the room,
Leaving Liu Bei in the house,
He paced back and forth,
I kept thinking about Sima Fu's words before,
Suddenly raised his head and said in a loud voice:
"Uncle Zhi!"
Chen Zhi appeared outside the door vigorously,
"My lord! The end will be! ”
"Quickly gather all the officials and big households in the city, except for the officials on duty near the east gate, the others will gather at the entrance of the vegetable market in the city in half an hour, I have something to say."
Chen Zhi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment,
Raising his head, he asked suspiciously:
"Lord, the entrance of the vegetable market?"
"That's right, Caishikou!"
Liu Bei repeated one side categorically.
Chen Zhi did not continue to ask,
simply turned around neatly to convey the order,
Half an hour is not a short time,
But the entire Anqiu City is not small,
Even if it's fast,
I want to be notified in half an hour,
But it's not an easy thing to do.
Half an hour later,
The vegetable market in Anqiu City is crowded with people,
Originally, this was the most lively place,
But half an hour ago,
The army suddenly came to block and empty the entire vegetable market,
When countless ordinary people still can't figure out what the situation is,
and suddenly found that
Officials of the city, big and small,
And those rich businessmen and gentry,
all appeared here one after another,
This pickled place where no noble person would appear on weekdays,
It is said that Lord Liu Bei has something important to announce,
So, in the area that the soldiers blockaded,
Which dignitaries gather more and more,
Outside of that blockade area,
The people of the city flocked to it,
This rare liveliness,
There's no one who doesn't want to come and participate,
What's more, everyone knows,
Now outside the city, Lu Bu's army is pressing,
Listen to the news from the city gate,
It seems that Liu Beijun's situation is not too good,
And this morning,
There was even news that Lu Bujun was going to surrender everyone in the city.
Everyone is also curious,
Liu Bei at this time,
Something important will be said.
In the anticipation of all,
Liu Bei's familiar figure finally appeared,
He went into the field on weekdays to communicate with the people,
Therefore, it is deeply trusted by the people in the city,
Even if he knew that he colluded with the Japanese to transport contraband,
But in his clever tongue,
and the improvement of life in the city,
The people believed his words for the benefit of one party.
"Fathers and fellow villagers!"
