Chapter 441 Whispering with Friends

Lu Ren's explanation made Cao Cao suddenly nod. On the other hand, Lu Ren's words also made Cao Cao psychologically more acceptable, indicating that although Lu Ren was a "child of the immortal family", he was not "able to pinch and calculate"...... Somehow, Cao Cao was a little worried that Lu Ren was the kind of person who "can pinch and calculate".

The two of them looked at Yuan Ying's Tushan over there, and vaguely saw that Yuan Jun's archers were coming out, probably wanting to launch a rain of arrows attack on Cao Ying's side again. After all, Cao Cao's stone cart yesterday was the first to show its might, and Yuan Shao's side had not suffered enough, or it could be said that he didn't believe in this evil, so he wanted to try it again.

Cao Cao was of course eager to try when he saw this, but when he turned his head and saw Lu Ren beside him, he was obviously tired, after all, Lu Ren's fatigue over the past few days could not be recovered by sleeping. So Cao Cao asked Lu Ren to go back to the tent to rest first, and there was someone here, so Cao Cao could command it himself. And to be honest, Lu Ren doesn't seem to be of much use here.

Lu Ren was not good at rejecting Cao Cao, so he was ready to return the account after answering. However, after thinking about it before leaving, Lu Ren suggested to Cao Cao: "Cao Gong might as well dig a deep trench outside the wall." One can prevent the Yuan army tunnel, and the other can also temporarily protect the camp river to strengthen the garrison of the camp. ”

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Yi Hao is high!" ”

Lu Ren echoed and smiled, but secretly said in his heart: "I'm a big-headed ghost above you!" I'm just copying! Brother Ziyang, I'm sorry, let's take your deeds for ourselves...... Forget it and go back to sleep. It's okay not to say it, but I'm really a little sleepy, and I was really tired a few days ago. ”

What followed was another day of arrow and stone confrontation, which gave Lu Ren the feeling that Yuan Shao's machine gun company and Cao Cao's artillery battalion were in full swing. And the "artillerymen" on Cao Cao's side don't know if they are addicted, and they actually run out of "ammunition" when they fight, and when Lu Ren occasionally wakes up to pee, he finds that many soldiers are looking for stones in various places around the camp to replenish "ammunition".

After Lu Ren asked, he smiled dumbly, and said in his heart, how can people in this era always have such tendons in their minds? Can the stone cart only throw stones? Smiling secretly, Lu Ren reminded the soldiers to use the burlap bags that had eaten the grain. Load it with sand and throw it at Yuan Ying's side. Cao Cao's troops here are not as good as Yuan Shao's, but there are about 20,000 or 30,000 people, and the amount of food to be consumed every day is not small. Besides, Cao Cao was preparing to dig a trench according to Lu Ren's proposal, and didn't he have to dig out the soil?

So, the day passed in the middle of the arrows and stones flying in mid-air, and Lu Ren slept in the tent for another day and a night, and by the next day, his state was finally much better.

Although it is a war, it is in a period of confrontation. Cao Yuan and both sides are actually playing these tricks that you go back and forth, so it really doesn't matter if it comes to Lu Ren's head. There was nothing to do, so Lu Ren carried two gourds and came to Guo Jia's tent. As soon as he saw Guo Jia's face, Lu Ren threw the gourd in his hand to Guo Jia and said with a smile: "It's the same old look, you know." ”

Guo Jia took the gourd, unscrewed one and sniffed it, raised it and wanted to take a few sips, but put it down after frowning. Then he raised his eyes and looked at Lu Ren.

Lu Ren said: "What's wrong? Others don't know, can I not know your fault? After a few months, you're going crazy about this thing, right? ”

Guo Jia shook his head and said, "I'm about to go crazy, but it's ......"

I looked around left and right. Guo Jia pointed to his tent with his backhand: "Enter the tent and speak." ”

Lu Ren shrugged his shoulders and said in his heart that your old Guo is quite concerned about the influence. In this way, the two entered the tent and sat down, and Guo Jia lifted the gourd again, but only after two sips. Guo Jia put it aside, obviously not bothered to drink. After glancing at Lu Ren a few more times, Guo Jia was about to speak. At this time, he suddenly heard the drums in the camp, Guo Jia's face immediately changed, and under the conditioned reflex, he hurriedly took two steps forward and grabbed Lu Ren and hid behind the big shield in the tent.

Seeing this, Lu Ren was dumbfounded, and casually shook off Guo Jia's hand and said, "Hey, old Guo, what's wrong with you?" Could it be that he was frightened by Yuan Shao's arrow rain a while ago? ”

Guo Jia then remembered that Yuan Shao's arrow rain was beaten by the stone cart brought by Lu Ren, and after smiling awkwardly, he sat back in place, and said bitterly: "Don't laugh, you kid, don't you know what the whole camp was like when it was caused by this rain of arrows a while ago." If it weren't for your kid who sent this stone cart in time, if we were shot down by these earth mountains and arrows again, it would be difficult to say whether the camp could hold it. ”

Lu Ren said: "Yes, it's better to come early than to come by chance, do you think I came in time?" ”

Guo Jia smiled, and finally poured a few sips of wine into his stomach. After pouring it, Guo Jia looked at Lu Ren and said with a little hesitation: "Speaking of which, your kid made a lot of noise in Xuzhou!" But let's not talk about these things first, I just want to ask you, didn't I let you see that you almost left and went back to your master to prolong your life? Why didn't you go, and now you have to run to the battlefield? ”

Lu Ren's face darkened slightly, and he waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about this anymore." In fact, what do I think in my heart, others don't know it, but you old Guo can't be clear? If you ask me now, I'll still say that. If I don't get rid of the demons in my heart, I will only be restless for the rest of my life. ”

Guo Jia said with some annoyance: "Why do you want to do this? Just for a woman! Is it worth it? ”

Lu Ren raised his hand to stop Guo Jia: "Don't say it again, okay?" I really don't want to talk to you too much about this kind of thing. If you still want to say, don't blame me for scolding you. To put it mildly, this is my own business, and you Lao Guo have a woolen relationship, what do I want to do, can you Lao Guo manage it? ”

"I ......"

Guo Jia was speechless for a moment. How many years have passed, Guo Jia is too clear about Lu Ren's temperament, and now that Lu Ren has said such things, Guo Jia knows that if he talks about these things again, he can only provoke Lu Ren to shoot the case and then throw his sleeves away. Shaking his head helplessly, Guo Jia stopped mentioning these things, and the topic turned elsewhere: "Okay, okay, don't say it, then I'll ask something else." ”

Saying that, Guo Jia leaned closer to Lu Ren, lowered his voice and said, "Ask you something, if you kid treats me as a brother, tell me honestly, and I won't say anything bad to you." ”

Lu Renqi said: "What are you trying to ask?" ”

Guo Jia looked out of the tent very carefully, and then asked in a low voice: "Honestly, Mr. Zheng Xuanzheng, was you taken away?" ”

Lu Ren was immediately stunned, and his eyes when he looked back at Guo Jia were also full of incredulity: "Damn!" How did you guess I did it? Or are you bastard with eyeliner on my side? ”

Guo Jia was taken aback when he heard Lu Ren's response? swept Lu Ren a few times again, and exclaimed: "It's really a good thing that your kid did!" I've guessed that you did it, but I've never been sure. ”

Lu Ren said: "Why do you speculate that I did it?" ”

Guo Jia sighed lightly: "Those people are squatting in Xuzhou, and they all know that there will be a big battle between the lord and Yuan Shao, but they don't know how to take Mr. Zheng away, so as not to suffer from the rebellion of the military revolution, but only as soon as you arrive in Xuzhou, Mr. Zheng will be robbed, do you think I don't want to be on your head?" Don't forget, you kid, when you and I first met in Xuzhou, you thought I was an ordinary traveling bachelor, and persuaded me to go to Mr. Zheng to avoid the army, so I know that you kid knows the value of Mr. Zheng. ”

Lu Ren shrugged his shoulders, after all, Guo Jia's words were not wrong, and Lu Ren was powerless to refute.

Guo Jia asked again: "Don't worry, I won't let you send Mr. Zheng to Xudu, let alone mention this matter to the lord." Because I know that right now you need Mr. Zheng to help you out of a big circle. ”

Lu Ren was slightly startled, and said tentatively: "What do you say? ”

Guo Jia said: "You injured Sun Ce, but you had to let Sun Ce go, so isn't the Lu clan of Wu County in danger?" So you have to send Mr. Zheng to the Wu County Lu Clan, so that Sun Ce will not dare to attack your Wu County Lu Clan. ”

“……”

Lu Ren couldn't refute it again, and at the same time, in Lu Ren's heart, there was a feeling that he couldn't hide anything from Guo Jia for no reason.

Guo Jia poured a few more sips of wine, and actually had a lot of things to say in his heart, but in the end he only squeezed out this sentence: "You kid don't turn your face with me, I have always regarded myself as your brother, so I still want to remind you." See for yourself what your body has become now, kid? Do you still want your life? Look at the almost, you hurry back to your division to prolong your life! As for your family's enmity, isn't there still me here? Are you still afraid that I won't help you get revenge? ”

Lu Ren glared at Guo Jia, and said in his heart that if everything could still go according to the original process, Yuan Shang, who killed a thousand knives, did die under your old Guo's calculations in the end, but your old Guo himself died of illness without being able to see Yuan Shang's head. And this is secondary, the important thing is that there have been some changes in this battle of Guandu, such as the stone cart is not a picture presented by Liu Ye, but sent to Guandu by himself.

This kind of Armageddon that moves the whole body at a moment's notice, if there is a problem in any link, it is likely to overturn the result, and you will not participate in it to correct it accordingly...... Don't say yes or no, just say where can Lu Ren's heart be put down? And at least, Lu Ren has to watch this decisive battle be fought and let things return to the original process, and Lu Ren will put down his snacks. Otherwise, Guo Jia wants to kill Yuan Shang? Nothing possible, right?

Although Lu Ren didn't speak, Guo Jia knew what Lu Ren was thinking when he saw Lu Ren's expression, but he was also quite helpless. After another pause, Guo Jia shook his head and said, "That's it, I know that I persuade you not to move, and any more reasoning with you is playing the piano to the cow." But what's the use of you kid staying on this battlefield? Will you be able to fight, or will you be able to give advice? It's about to be the August harvest, and Xu Du needs you to take care of the grain. If you really want to make a good contribution, go back to Xudu quickly! ”
