Although the catapult is sharp, Lu Peng is not afraid that Liu Bei will use the craftsmen of the army to imitate it, and he Liu Bei will definitely not be able to imitate it, because his catapult is definitely a precision machine and a handicraft in the current world. It was created under the precision of uniform weights and measures. As for Liu Bei's craftsmen who are characterized by extensive type, they must not be able to assemble them, which is like the precision machine tools in Germany in later generations, even if they are sold to us in the world's first Sanzhai country, we can only buy them and not copycats.

Guan Yu achieved his goal, so he was about to leave, Lu Peng worked hard to eat and then left, but Guan Yu was anxious to go back because of something in his heart, and reported to Liu Bei the results of his conversation with Lu Peng, and insisted on going.

As soon as Guan Yu left on the front foot, Tian Feng came back on the back foot, although he looked in a hurry, he was also full of spring breeze, and it seemed that he had a good conversation with Liu Bei.

Pulling Tian Feng to sit down, Lu Peng asked, "How are you going to talk about this?" ”

After Tian Feng took a sip of tea soup, he reported with a smile: "Xuande is benevolent and has a gentlemanly style. ”

Lu Peng smiled indifferently, and said secretly in his heart: "You were deceived by him." I don't believe it, he didn't cry for you. ”

Tian Feng sighed: "As soon as I mentioned you, the lord, Xuande Gong immediately cried and confessed his thoughts about you. ”

"Look, there's really this drama."

"When I explained that because we have few soldiers here, you are really lacking in skills, Xuan Degong expressed his sincere understanding."

"Just talk."

"I expressed your greetings and hearts to Xuan Degong, and he offered to ask for our catapult help."

Lu Peng nodded: "When Senior Brother Yun came just now, he also proposed to me to borrow a catapult, but one is just a request, and one is borrowed." ”

"I agreed on behalf of my lord." Tian Feng replied with some apprehension.

"I knew you would agree, in front of Liu Bei, almost no one can resist his plea." Patting Tian Feng's hand, Lu Peng said indifferently: "I also promised to give him twenty units." ”

"Free?" Tian Feng was puzzled.

Lu Peng came to his senses: "Are you still pulling something for me back?" ”

Tian Feng replied proudly: "I can't bear to refuse Xuandegong's request, but how can I give away our things for nothing?" No, I want him to have 5,000 people, or the kind that brings his own grain and grass. ”

At that time, Lu Peng was impressed by this upright person, this is really a thief who is not empty-handed, twenty catapults, in exchange for 5,000 people, or bring their own grain and grass, high, really high. It seems that Liu Bei, the little fox, has never fought against Tian Feng, an old fox.

Lu Peng has a habit of conquest, that is, he does not recruit people to accompany the army, this is to sympathize with the people, and secondly, Lu Peng thinks that taking the people into battle can only empty a small amount of military supplies, and there is no other benefit at all, not only that, but it will also slow down the operation of the army. Therefore, Lü Peng's army was logistically procured from merchants.

At the same time, the construction of the camp should also be done by the soldiers themselves, which can actually exercise the physical strength of the soldiers, and at the same time allow the soldiers to develop good habits, not lazy, not dependent.

But this time, if you can get an extra 5,000 people who bring their own grain and grass, they will be happy to be idle.

The coalition forces reached mutual understanding, of course, Lü Peng and Liu Bei still did not meet each other, and it was Tian Feng and Guan Yu who ran back and forth to contact, and the two sides agreed to start attacking Yuyang three days later.

Originally, according to the rules, Lü Peng and Liu Bei's men and horses should surround the Yuyang group occupied by the rebels, and no rebels and Wuhuan people should escape, but Lü Peng and Liu Bei coincidentally implemented the strategy of encircling three and missing one.

The reason for this is that in Lu Peng's place, he has too few soldiers and horses to divide his troops to surround other city gates, while Liu Bei's task is to take Yuyang even if it is a great achievement, hoping that under his strong blow, forcing Zhang Ju and Wuhuan away will also achieve his goal.

Standing on the position of another batch of catapults that were urgently transported, watching countless people help the sergeants assemble, Lu Peng said worriedly: "Yuyang City is high and deep, and I don't know how many of our brothers will die in this battle." ”

Tian Feng looked at Lu Peng, and then at Yuyang. pondered for a moment, then raised his head and whispered: "Actually, this siege battle can be fought without this." ”

Lu Peng didn't hear clearly, so he turned his head and asked, "What did you say?" ”

Tian Feng looked left and right, and saw that there were no outsiders on the left and right, so he said solemnly: "My subordinates are saying that in fact, there is no need to fight like this in this siege battle." ”

Lu Peng stopped and began to look solemnly at his first adviser.

"Tell me what you think."

Tian Feng suddenly said another question: "The lord cherishes the people, what is the reason for this?" ”

Lu Peng really didn't know why he asked this question, but for himself, the leader of the future core strategist group, Lu Peng didn't want to hide his dark heart. Discarding those, he said honestly: "Our nation has had too much suffering, God has brought me into this world, and I can also know what God means, that is, let me minimize the suffering of this nation, I cherish the people of this nation, but in fact, I need to use these people more to realize the desire to save more people, is this wrong?" ”

This is a philosophical question, but Tian Feng didn't think about this philosophy, but felt very satisfied with Lu Peng's frank relative, so he nodded and said: "If you want to save more people, you have to lose some. ”

came out of this famous saying that came out of the Song Dynasty, and Lu Peng had to suspect that Tian Feng also crossed over, but then thought about it, the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete, but it doesn't have to be the eternal swan song of the Song Dynasty! On the contrary, it is the simplest feeling of a wise person.

"What do you want to say? It's just you and me here, just say it calmly. ”

Tian Feng was silent for a while, and when he raised his head, his face was already full of determination: "Yuyang County, we must get the first merit of attacking Yuyang, we must get it in our hands, only in this way can we achieve our goal and expel Liu Bei, so my subordinates think that the battle of Yuyang County is not necessary to use the lives of our precious soldiers to deliberately seize him, as long as we occupy it, we will also achieve our goal." ”

Lu Peng frowned, he really didn't have the heart to guess what he wanted to say, "What do you want to say?" ”

Tian Feng exhaled deeply, and then said with a resolute face: "In order to achieve our goal and save more people, we must give up some of the people, then, we have hundreds of catapults, as well as invincible fire and oil bombs in the world, and then stay, before capturing Yuyang City, burn the city." ”

Lu Peng didn't say anything? So the two of them stood here, looking at the high Yuyang City, and said nothing more.
