"In contrast, if it is an opportunity created by yourself, you will have a little bottom in your heart, so it will be easier to grasp the ......"

With these words in his mouth, Lu Ren was laughing at himself. Because these words seem to be philosophical words to persuade people to make progress, but in fact, they were Lu Ren's "Pickling Girl Method" taught to Lu Ren by a buddy who was a "love master" before Lu Ren crossed over, when he was fooling around with girls in the bar, and then he also took the trouble to give Lu Ren some crooked tricks such as how to find an opportunity to talk to a girl.

Although the current Lu Ren's memory of his life experience has long been lost, he can still feel that he must be a person with no female popularity before he gets everything about "him". And that buddy's words are indeed teaching Lu Ren tricks, but it is not an exaggeration to say that he is mocking Lu Ren for not being able to soak in the girl.

"I just don't know what the guy who mocked me as a 'solo flyer' in the first place, if I knew that in this era that didn't belong to me, there were several women around me, and all of them were like flowers and jade, and even when there was even the best in the world, what would I think in my heart? Stunned or jealous? But what made them break through the glasses the most should be the pickling girl method they taught me, and now I want to use it to persuade Cao Cao. ”

Thinking of this, Lu Ren shook his head and smirked again. Looking at the sky again, Lu Ren was indeed tired from rushing for several days, so he simply closed his eyes and slept peacefully.

In a blink of an eye, it was the next day, Lu Ren went to the back camp to inspect the handover of military supplies, and when he saw that there was nothing unusual, he turned back to the front camp, looking at Yuan Shao's military village at the other end. Suddenly, Cao Cao called from Lu Ren's side, "Yihao, what are you thinking?" ”

Lu Ren was in a trance just now, and he was inevitably a little startled when he heard Cao Cao's voice. Quickly turned around and saluted Cao Cao. Of course, Lu Ren didn't forget that his right arm was still in a state of "no consciousness", and just in case, Lu Ren also found a strap to tie his right arm to his body. In this way, Lu Ren raised his left hand and gave Cao Cao a somewhat nondescript salute: "I've seen Cao Gong." ”

Cao Cao glanced at Lu Ren a few times, and then looked thoughtfully in the direction of Yuan's military camp. A few strange smiles suddenly appeared on his face: "Lonely made friends with Benchu when he was young, and he loved him very closely, and he can be called a close friend, and Lone and Benchu have done a lot of ridiculous things that are hilarious when they are young and frivolous."

"I remember that it was still very early, and there was a family in Luoyang City who held a big wedding banquet, and Gu and Benchu were also invited to the banquet. Because of the good things of their youth, and drinking more wine, the two of them became more and more arrogant, and they conspired to go to the inner hall to molest the bride for fun. As a result, he was naturally coaxed out and fled in panic. At that time, Ben Chu had been hooked by thorn branches and couldn't get out, and in his desperation, Shengzhi shouted and chased after him, and Ben Chu tore his clothes naked and fled in a panic...... Hmph, hahaha!! ”

Thinking of these old events, Cao Cao couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh. It's just that after laughing, when Cao Cao lowered his gaze and looked at Yuan's military camp again, his face showed a somewhat stunned look, and he sighed lightly: "People often say, 'Young people don't know what it's like to be sad', how lonely and original was it at that time? It's a pity. If it weren't for the failure of the court and the gradual chaos in the world, people would have different aspirations and would have chased the world. Maybe Lone and Ben should still be singing and laughing all day long in Luoyang City, right? The sky makes people, and the two childhood best friends of Lone and Ben are going to meet here today, fighting for your life and death. Alas......"

Speaking of this, Cao Cao let out a long sigh and shook his head lightly with a somewhat gloomy expression.

“……”

Lu Ren looked at Cao Cao with some astonishment, because Lu Ren felt that Cao Cao at this moment was indeed feeling these words. It's not about acting or posing. In fact, Lu Ren knew that Cao Cao had a sentimental side as a writer and poet, so it was not uncommon for Cao Cao to appear in such a sad state now. Then again, if you want to fight to the death with your childhood friend, no matter who you are, I'm afraid it won't feel good in your heart, even if it's a hero like Cao Cao. Occasionally, there will be times when I feel it, after all, Cao Cao has not yet reached a certain point, at least not the current Cao Cao.

Seeing Cao Cao like this, Lu Ren hesitated for a moment, slightly locked his eyebrows and said, "Gong Cao, fate sometimes plays tricks on people. Former friends often go their separate ways because of different aspirations, or even turn against each other. However, I think that since Ming Gong and Yuan Benchu were once friends, but today they met each other to fight each other, so they should do their best without reservations......"

Cao Cao looked sideways at Lu Ren and said, "How can you say this?" ”

Lu Ren brought out a classic line from a martial arts novel: "Since it is a life-and-death battle between friends, you should do your best to be unreserved, because this is also a kind of respect for each other's best friends for Ming Gong and Yuan Benchu, who are also candidates of one party." If anyone refuses to give their all, they are actually despising the other person and not seeing the other person as a good friend. ”

Cao Cao savored Lu Ren's words, and suddenly laughed and said, "Okay! Yihao said it well! It is precisely because of the original that Lone is his best friend, so he should do his best to win. ”

After laughing, the previous look of amazement on Cao Cao's face was gone, replaced by a deep and gloomy gaze looking at Yuan's military camp. After looking at it a few times, Cao Cao turned his head sideways and asked Lu Ren, "Yihao, the attendant in front of the lonely tent told Yu Gu that you were already waiting in front of the tent when it was dark?" You should have something important to do with me, but why didn't you let the attendants wake up Lonely, just going back and forth outside the tent alone? ”

Lu Ren straightened his mind and began to turn his words back to the topic: "I was worried about not being able to sleep well, but after thinking about it all night, a thought also popped up in my heart, I wanted to try to make a suggestion to Cao Gong. But because I didn't think about it, I was afraid that I would be incoherent and incoherent when I was in a hurry to see him, so I took advantage of the quiet of the morning to sort out my thoughts. Cao Gong, you also know that this plan is not in the middle of it. ”

Cao Cao nodded abruptly and said, "What is Yihao worried about?" ”

Lu Ren said: "It has been several months since Duke Cao rejected the crowd in Guandu, guarded the choke point and prevented Yuan's original army from advancing an inch. In the past few months, the two armies have fought several times and won and lost each other, and although the public army is small, it can be evenly matched at the beginning of Yuan's origin. To be honest, it is not easy for Cao Gong to be like this, and it is difficult to spare the strength, but Lu Ren thinks that Cao Gong should still think of a good strategy to defeat the enemy as soon as possible, and should not sit here wholeheartedly. If this stalemate continues, Li Ben is not in Cao Gong at the beginning. If it takes time, I am afraid that Ming Gong will be defeated. ”

Hearing this, Cao Cao narrowed his signature triangular eyes, and looked at Lu Ren quietly for a while, but suddenly smiled: "What Yihao said is very true!" It's just that I woke up for a while, my sleepiness was not gone, and my mind was still a little drowsy, and I couldn't figure out what to do. And Yi Hao thought about it all night, presumably he already had a good plan in his heart, so how about asking Yi Hao to talk about the high opinion in his chest? I wish I could hear about it! ”

“……”

Lu Ren was really a little speechless at Cao Cao's reaction, and said in his heart that you Cao Cao is too calm, right? It was really far from Cao Cao's expected reaction. Think about it in the original history, when Cao Cao heard that Xu Yu came to vote, he "greeted him with his feet", why was he so bland when he came to Lu Ren?

And the ridiculous thing also happened at this time, that is, Cao Cao's reaction that was far beyond Lu Ren's expectations made Lu Ren stunned and at a loss on the spot. I had been preparing the words all night, but when the words came to my mouth, I realized that I had forgotten them all for a while...... To paraphrase a modern phrase, Lu Ren encountered temporary amnesia due to a certain degree of stimulation.

At this time, Lu Ren was in a hurry, and his left hand, which was "still moving", was desperately grabbed at the back of his head, his expression was so embarrassed, and he kept muttering: "What did I want to say just now, what did I say?" How did I suddenly forget about it at this juncture? Come to think of it, think about it! ”

This time, Cao Cao was speechless, and said in his heart, why is this guy like this? said that he was playing tricks, but no matter how he looked at it, he should really have something to say, but he forgot about it temporarily. Looking at Lu Ren's anxious expression again, Cao Cao couldn't help but laugh dumbly and said, "Yihao, don't be in a hurry, calm down and think slowly...... It's better to sit on the lawn less and chat a few words first, maybe you will suddenly remember it while chatting. In fact, this kind of thing often happens to loneliness. ”

Lu Ren replied vaguely, and followed Cao Cao to kneel down on the straw mat outside the tent. There was someone who brought tea to the two of them for breakfast, but Lu Ren didn't eat it, but was still there desperately scratching his head and thinking hard. Seeing this, Cao Cao knew that he couldn't ask too fiercely, otherwise he was afraid that the more he asked Lu Ren, the more he couldn't think of it, after all, this kind of thing had happened to everyone. So Cao Cao's eyes rolled a few times and decided to open the topic first, so he raised his glass to Lu Ren and smiled: "Yihao, you said earlier that you can't stay here for a long time, so can you tell me the reason for this?" ”

"Oh, that's right."

Lu Ren first shook off what he wanted to say but couldn't remember, and after a little contemplation, he responded: "The main problem is that Yuan Benchu's military strength is too strong. After all, today's Yuan Benchuhu is based in the land of four states, and there are many people in the land. Cao Gong, you know that I often send caravans to various places to trade for profit, so the news everywhere is relatively well-informed. According to the news that the children of the Lu and Mi clans I sent back to investigate, Jizhou alone, if it is transferred according to its origin, it can get more than 300,000 soldiers.

"On the other hand, Cao Gong, the troops that can be concentrated in Guandu today are basically all here, and the troops in other places cannot be moved lightly because they have to defend important places. To put it simply, Cao Gong, you may be able to afford money and food, but you can't afford people. Yuan Benchu's army source can be continuously transferred from the rear to Guandu, but how many soldiers are still in the rear of the Ming Duke to adjust?

"In the next place, he has to be promoted by Cao Gong and take care of civil affairs with Xun Wenruo, so he may be clearer than Cao Gong in political affairs. I can only tell Cao Gong that if you continue to adjust like this, Cao Gong, there will be no more soldiers in your foundation land. Like this time to transport grain to Guandu, the people mobilized are already old and weak......" (to be continued......
