Li Yuanba rushed back and bloodily stoned the running war horse, forcing Sima Yi's car to stop. Sima Yi rolled out of the car and fell on his stomach, very embarrassed.

Lu Bu wrapped himself in an animal skin coat, ran over, and asked, "Your name is Sima Yi?" ”

Sima Yi stood up, looked at Lu Bu and his party with some annoyance, and arched his hand: "Yes... What are the feet? ”

"Hahaha... I didn't expect there to be an unexpected gain today! ”

Lu Bu laughed a few times and said, "Listen, my name is Lu Bu, Lu Fengxian." You only have two ways now, one is to stay in Shouchun City and work for me, and the other is to be crushed to death by Li Yuanba's golden hammer like that horse. ”

"You...!"

Of course, Sima Yi had heard of Lu Bu's name, and it was like thunder. It's just that I didn't expect that Lu Bu would be so rude, what is the difference between being reckless and reckless? Such a person can also take over the world?

"Ding! Congratulations to the host, who successfully angered Sima Yi and gained 10 rage points! The system beep came.

Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, and continued: "Sima Yi, do you know what happened to the family when it fell into my hands? Your Sima family is a big family in Hanoi County. ”

"Yes. What is the general going to do with me? ”

Sima Yi gritted his teeth and said. The hatred for Lu Bu in his heart rose to another level.

+20 rage!

"As I just said, those who follow me prosper, those who oppose me perish, and if you want to live, take refuge in me. Do you want to die? Or do you want to live? It's in your thoughts! ”

Sima Yi's face changed, and he sneered: "Okay, I am willing to take refuge in the general, and I will look forward to the general." ”

"What?"

"I said I was willing to join the general."

"Seriously?"

"Of course it's true!"

Lu Bu was a little stunned, he originally wanted to provoke Sima Yi and earn a little rage points, but he didn't expect that as soon as it started, Sima Yi became a soft bone.

Lu Bu hesitated, but he was still not ready to let him go, and continued: "Sima Yi, if you want to make it clear, if you take refuge in me, you can't betray you. If you betray, the end will be worse than that of the family! ”

"Yes, yes..."

Sima Yi still looks dead.

Lu Bu didn't want to say anything too much, nodded and said, "Okay, General Ben welcomes you to join!" ”

Jia Xu walked over and said, "Congratulations to the lord..." ”

"Don't be too busy congratulating just yet."

Lu Bu glanced at Sima Yi and said, "Whether it's joy or sorrow, we have to wait and see." ”

Thinking of Sima Yi seizing the power of Cao Wei in history, eliminating Shu Wu, and becoming the final winner, Lu Bu felt a little embarrassed in his heart, even if Sima Yi had great ability, he didn't want to use it.

But now that Sima Yi has just taken refuge, it is not easy to kill.

"Lord, are we going to Guyang City?" Jia Xu asked.

Lu Bu didn't want to show his hole cards in front of Sima Yi too early, so he waved his hand and said, "Don't go, go back to Shouchun City." ”

"No."

"General... You haven't said yet, what kind of official will I be? Sima Yi chased after him.

"Wenxian Pavilion attendant."

"Squire?"

"Yes, it is specially for the scholars of Wenxian Pavilion to serve tea and water, and study ink, you sit up from the bottom first, when will you show your talent and contribute to me, and then it is not too late to be promoted."

Sima Yi was a little dissatisfied. It's good that he is also a great sage in Hanoi County, and he actually brings tea and water to people and grinds ink?

Jia Xu was also very puzzled. Lu Bu values Sima Yi, why not reuse it? And use the official position of Wenxian Pavilion attendant to humiliate him? Didn't you intend to make Sima Yi loyal from the beginning?

With doubts, everyone went home.

Inside the Military Aircraft Division.

Jia Xu said: "The lord doesn't want to reuse Sima Yi, so why bring it back? Since it was brought back, it should be well placed. At the very least, he should be allowed to be a bachelor in Wenxian Pavilion, how can he study ink for the scholars? ”

Lu Bu said with a smile: "With Sima Yi's talent, if he becomes a scholar of Wenxian Pavilion, he will soon become a scholar, in that case, his influence will be great." I want to put him under house arrest right now and prevent him from leaving Shouchun City. ”

"Why is that?"

"Didn't I just say that Sima Yi is talented, if he goes back to Cao Cao, it will be unfavorable to me."

"Then the lord can reuse him, can't he just become his own person? And why should you use a servant office to dishonor him? Jia Xu felt that Lu Bu's words were contradictory.

Lu Bu was too lazy to explain, stared at Jia Xu and said, "I don't think he's happy, I don't want to reuse him, okay?" You'd better keep an eye on him, and if you make trouble in Wenxian Pavilion, don't blame me for rushing to Wenxian Pavilion and cutting off his head. ”

"Uh..."

Jia Xu became more and more unable to figure out Lu Bu. Seeing that Lu Bu was a little impatient, he didn't dare to ask more.

Chen Gong and Zhang Liang walked into the lobby and discussed something all the way.

Seeing Lu Bu sitting in the lobby, he came over to salute: "Lord." ”

"What are you discussing?"

Chen Gong replied: "My lord, the officials received a letter of recital, which was handed over by Luo Cheng, the governor of Jingzhou, saying that Lu Xun was good at training troops and arranging formations, did he give the right to soldiers?" ”

Lu Xun's talent, Lu Bu knew very well, he was sent to Jingzhou to assist Luo Cheng as soon as he took refuge.

However, to give Lu Xun military power, it is necessary to be cautious.

Zhang Liang said: "The minister thinks it is impossible. Lu Xun is Sun Quan's person, although Sun Quan took refuge in the lord, but it is inevitable that he has evil intentions, if he relies on Lu Xun and seeks to seize Jingzhou, it will be a bad thing. ”

"What do you mean by the public platform?" Lu Bu asked Chen Gong.

Chen Gong said: "The minister thinks... Don't use suspicious people, don't suspect people. Since Lu Xun is talented, it doesn't hurt to reuse it. ”

"The minister seconded the proposal."

Jia Xu also agreed with Chen Gong's words.

Lu Buzhi thought about it again and again, and asked, "How many soldiers and horses are there in Jingzhou now?" ”

"Back to the lord, Luo Cheng has 30,000 cavalry and 70,000 infantry in his hands. Liu Bowen has just arrived in Nanyang County, responsible for the formation of the Thousand Banners Army, if it goes well, by the beginning of spring next year, there should be 150,000 soldiers and horses in Jingzhou. Chen Gong replied.

150,000 people, which sounds like a lot, if you really want to fight, it will seem that the troops are insufficient.

Lu Budao: "Jingzhou's strategic position is very important, not only to fight against Cao Liu, but also to assist Gan Ning and dominate the Yangtze River. If the troops are insufficient, it is possible to let Liu Bei take advantage of the situation. Since Lu Xun is talented and has to be recommended by Luo Cheng, I believe him once. He was appointed as the chief soldier of Jiangxia County and given a system of 20,000 soldiers. However, his soldiers and horses are still under Luo Cheng's control. ”

Thinking that Lu Xun had not been reused by the Sun family before, and he took the initiative to take refuge, Lu Bu had some trust in him. If Lu Xun is heart-to-heart, it will be a great help in the future.

"Yes, the minister will reply to General Luo Cheng immediately." Chen Gong responded.

this day.

In Yizhou Chengdu Assassin Mansion, Zhuge Liang reported to Liu Bei.

"The counties of Yizhou have a population of 5.3 million, and in the past two months, 250,000 new recruits have been recruited, plus the Yizhou army that originally surrendered, about 330,000. However, the southern barbarian Meng Shu took advantage of the chaos to advance westward, intending to attack Yunnan, and sent troops to suppress it. ”

Liu Bei didn't even think about it, so he said: "Okay, Mr. Zhu led 100,000 troops and conquered Meng in the south." One trains our soldiers to be elite. The second is to surrender Meng and gain the support of the foreign races in the south. ”

"The king is wise."

Zhuge Liang was ordered to leave.

Pang Tong and Ma Chao came.

Pang Tong glanced at Liu Bei and said, "If the king wants to conquer Meng Huo, he should go in person..." ”

Liu Bei asked suspiciously, "What does Shi Yuan mean by this?" ”

Pang Tong said: "Although the king captured Yizhou, he did not occupy morality, and he was ashamed of the people of Sichuan and Shu. Today's southern barbarian rebellion is a good opportunity for the king to stand up, how can Zhuge Liang be allowed to do it for him? The minister and General Ma Chao are willing to follow the king to the south, and they will collect and surrender Meng Shu and return the peace of the people of Yizhou. ”

Liu Bei hesitated...

He thought about it, Meng Huo's strength should not be underestimated, and if he let his subordinates surrender, it would be inconvenient to reuse it in the future. If you drive the expedition yourself, collect Meng Shu, and win the hearts of the people in Sichuan and Shu, it should be the best policy.

Besides, with Pang Tong on the expedition, cleaning up Meng Shu is like playing.

This kind of pie-in-the-sky credit really can't be given to Zhuge Liang.

After Liu Bei decided, he said: "Mr. Lao Fu sent an order to let Kong Ming continue to preside over the internal affairs of Sichuan and Shu. Ling Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Zhao Yun led all the troops and horses to assemble in Ba County. The king wants to personally lead an army of 200,000 to conquer Meng Shu. ”

"No."

Pang Tong and Ma Chao were ordered to retreat.
