Chapter 020: Taishou Urging Battle
After training so intensely for more than a month, on this day, Liu Guanzhang and the others hurriedly came back and ordered someone to immediately call Lu Peng back on the teaching field, saying that there was an urgent matter to negotiate.
Lu Peng didn't know what to do, ordered the troops to disband and rest, and hurried to Zhang Fei's hall with the inseparable Xi Zhen.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I saw Liu Bei sitting in the center, accompanied by Guan Zhang left and right, and on Liu Bei's drooping hand seat, there was a high-crowned scribe with a high belt, talking to Liu Bei, Liu Bei's attitude was very respectful.
At this time, Liu Bei heard the sound of footsteps outside the gate, and knew that it was Lu Peng coming, so he hurriedly straightened his waist and waited for Lu Peng to come in.
Lu Peng strode into the lobby, first greeted Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and after Liu Bei returned the salute, he introduced Lu Peng: "Mr. Come here, this is Mr. Guan Guan, the staff member of Liu Zhijun's Mansion in Youzhou." Then he introduced Lu Peng to him.
This staff member just glanced at Lu Peng, nodded his head as if he had seen it, and then continued to talk to Liu Bei.
Lu Peng didn't think Xu either, and knelt down in the position where he should do on his left hand, Xi Zhen habitually stood behind Lu Peng, Lu Peng held his knees with both hands, and listened carefully to Liu Bei's conversation with this Guan Yin.
But it turned out that Zhang Jiao's army of 200,000, led by the general Cheng Yuanzhi, was killing Zhuo County, the officials and soldiers around the country were corrupt, and they fled everywhere, and the only Gongsun Zhan who could fight went to the north to quell the rebellion on the border Zhang Hansui went, the battlefield situation was urgent, and Liu Yan was in a hurry, so he remembered that Liu Bei Guan Zhang and Lu Peng recruited Xiangyong in this Zhangjiazhuang, and the training was long, and it was the time to use it, so he sent a soldier to bring a letter, Liu Bei shirked under the persuasion of Lu Peng, saying that his armor was insufficient and the training was not finished.
Liu Bei did this for two purposes, first, you want me to fight on the battlefield for you, but you also have to respect me and send a small soldier over, what kind of thing is this? This is contempt for oneself.
Second, it is true, I only have 500 village warriors, and I need to face 200,000 Yellow Turban troops, 500 against 200,000, one person spit on one person, and my own 500 people were drowned, and they are still fighting? Don't even think about it.
At the same time, now these 500 people have indeed not been trained, and in a month, even if you are an immortal, you can't train a group of peasants without an army, which will take at least three or five months to complete.
Liu Yan was rewarded, and he also felt that he was treating Liu Bei and others slowly, so he deliberately sent his Taishou Mansion staff to manage the loss, and personally said that he had given Liu Bei enough face.
So Liu Bei immediately summoned Guan Zhang and Lu Peng to discuss the matter of sending troops.
Guan Yu saw that the three people under Liu Bei were very popular, and he was quite satisfied at the moment.
This is the official in charge sent by the higher department, at this time, it is necessary to pull the relationship, so Lu Peng stepped forward to give a salute to Guan Wei, ready to follow the routine, and sacrifice himself as a descendant of Lu Buwei, and he has a familiar face, but Liu Bei directly interrupted Lu Peng's thoughts, and asked Guan Fei respectfully: "The boss is here, what can you teach me?" ”
This choked Lu Peng, it was panting.
But there is no way, so I can only listen to Liu Bei and this Guan Yin talk about big things.
At this time, Guan Qian said: "Zhuo County is urgent, two counties have already fallen, and now I specially ask Xuande Gong to send troops immediately to relieve Zhuo County." ”
This is to really find rescuers, it seems that Liu Yan is really in a hurry, Liu Bei's eyes lit up, he has been waiting for this opportunity for nearly a month, if it weren't for this Lu Peng in the way, he would have taken people to set off on the first day he established Xiangyong.
But that's good, if he went directly with the team at that time, as Lu Peng said, if he was not in a hurry, he would not be taken seriously, and he might just send a battlefield casually, and if he didn't get what he wanted at that time, it would be inevitable to be despised by others.
This time, Liu Yan sent his staff and cronies, which can be regarded as attaching great importance to himself, and turned his head to look at Lu Peng, at this time Lu Peng thought that his training was okay, and he could take it out to fight, besides, if he was too guarded with Liu Yan this time, he sent his cronies to urge, if he was holding it again, it would be too much, and it might make Liu Yan disgusted, so he nodded lightly, which was regarded as agreeing.
Liu Bei got Lu Peng's approval, so he turned around and replied very solemnly and sincerely: "When we recruited Xiangyong, we were dedicated to serving the country, and now that the state and county are in trouble, we will definitely work hard to move forward, and we will never dare to deliberately shirk it, rest assured, I will take my brother to rectify the army equipment, and I can go to war tomorrow." ”
At this time, Lu Peng said to Liu Bei: "The army has not moved, the grain and grass go first, and the third brother has exhausted the family property, and the number is only limited. ”
Liu Bei frowned, looking at Lu Peng unhappily.
Aren't you talking nonsense, in the past month, I have taken Zhang Fei, the head snake of the land, all over the world to beg and ask, and have brought countless grains and grasses, just those grains and grasses, which are completely enough for our 500 people to eat for a few months, at this time you actually raised this question, do you say that you are greedy for ink while we are away?
At this time, Guan Yi heard this extraneous sound, and estimated the origins of these three people at that time, except for Zhang Fei, who is a local wealthy family, but he is just a pig killer, and the others, one is from a rice flower child, one is a kang mat, and the other is a vendor who sells dates. It's not easy to gather and feed 500 people, and I think this guy in white robe is telling the truth.
Another point is that it is indeed unjustifiable not to come up with some money if there is a request from others now.
The ancients were kind, and they couldn't bear it at the moment, so they stepped forward to help solve the difficulties: "What this gentleman said is very reasonable, the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass are also the essence of the art of war, but fortunately, when Lord Taishou came, he had already thought of the difficulties of the righteous soldiers, so he had prepared grain and grass in Zhuojun City, and at the same time there was a batch of ordnance and armor, as long as your army arrived, it would be replenished immediately." ”
Liu Bei's feeling is like a roller coaster, when he went to Zhuo County to ask for ordnance money and food, the county lieutenant of Zhuo County saw that he was born in the royal family, so he allocated some equipment, and the money and food were not even thought about, but why was he suddenly so generous this time?
Lu Peng smiled and said nothing.
Knock on the bamboo, this thing is to take care of the heat. Sometimes it's more skillful, sometimes it's the wrong way to rip off the bamboo, or it's not the right time, although you also knock something, but you have fallen into hatred, and there will be endless troubles in the future.
And this time, the bamboo pole I knocked on was so easy to come by. Not only knocked the bamboo pole loudly, but also the other party should be grateful to himself.
In this year, the chaos is about to begin, and the materials will become more and more scarce.
