Chapter 31: Lack of Reason
Seeing the two sneaky people at his own door, Lu Bu asked from a distance, "Who are you?" Why did the fire burn my camp? ”
Zhang Chang heard Lu Bu shouting and asking, he was frightened, he was no one else, it was just the one who had just been caught and caught to persuade Lu Bu to exchange Pengcheng for his family, when he came to Lu Bu's camp, he saw that the camp was on fire everywhere and there was no one, and he was wondering why Lu Bu led the army to Xiapi why he didn't leave soldiers to guard the camp, and when he heard Lu Bu shouting and asked, he hurriedly replied:
"General Zuo, Zhang Chang, a staff member of the Xuzhou Assassin History, was entrusted by the Assassin Shi to come to meet General Zuo. As soon as I arrived www.biquge.info, I saw that the camp was empty, and the fire broke out everywhere, how can my master and servant set the huge barracks on fire in many places, and went to General Zuo to investigate. ”
"Mi Fang and Zheng Kai hurried to put out the fire, how much food they could save, and they were also very tired of eating horse meat every day." Lu Bu arranged for people to extinguish the fire first, anyway, these horse meat can last for a few days, and Lu Bu will not be heartbroken for this bit of burned grain.
Zheng Kai and Mi Fang just left Lu Bu's sight, Mi Fang said again: "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, we should have retreated to Pengcheng according to the strategy of the military division, Lu Bu was stubborn for his own use, because of his personal abolition, abandoned the good strategy of Mr. and used the sword in vain, today's defeat was caused by Lu Bu but the military division almost fell to the ground, such a mediocre master, why not go with me to the Xuande public account?" ”
Zheng Kai let out a long sigh, shook his head and refused: "Without the attack of the body, how can Xuande Gong be more important than me." ”
He secretly resolved in his heart to make a big move before leaving, and to prove his worth and the cleverness of his strategy by plunging Lu Bu into a place of no return.
Lu Bu invited Zhang Chang into the makeshift tent and sat down, and summoned Mi Fang, Zheng Kai, and Xiao Xiong.
"Did Mr. Che Xuan come to write a war letter?" Lu Bu didn't know what it meant by Che Zhou sending a messenger.
"No, the assassin sent me to make peace." Zhang Chang has already thought about what to say on the way to come, Lu Bu eats soft and not hard, legend has it that in the past, Chen Deng's father and son had to sing praises to him first, and first show weakness by speaking peace, and when Lu Bu was fluttering, he proposed to exchange women for Pengcheng, and Lu Bu would not break out and kill people even if he did not agree.
"I don't know what Che Xuan wants to say?"
"Assassin Shi wants to have a relationship with General Zuo."
"Straight to the point!" Lu Bu was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, and his voice suddenly became cold.
Zhang Chang found that Lu Bu was not the same as the rumors, and he was already impatient before he began to flatter Lu Bu.
"The assassin wants to send General Lu's family back."
"Is that true?" Lu Bu really never expected it, and asked out of instinctive joy.
Zhang Chang kept carefully looking at Lu Bu's expression, and saw that the smile on Lu Bu's face was not a trace of artificiality, and his heart was halfway through, and then said: "But once the prime minister blames him, how will Che Assassin Shi answer?" What if the prime minister was angry and beheaded in anger, and asked General Zuo to help think of a fold. ”
"This..."Once the car is released by his own family, Cao Cao will definitely punish the car and the family, but it is different to exchange Cao Chun, but Cao Chun has been taken to Guangling by Gao Shun, what Lu Bu exchanged, it is really a plan that can't catch up with the changes.
Lu Bu sat silently on the main seat and pondered, once Chen Deng returned to Xiapi, it was very likely that he would kill his family members to vent his anger, and his time was running out. Yes, Lu Bu thought of a way, that is, to exchange Peng Cheng, who was to be abandoned in two days, and Che Xuan exchanged his three family members for the huge Xuzhou Governance Office, which is a great merit, how could Cao Cao punish the meritorious ministers, but this can't come out of Lu Bu's mouth, Zhang Chang must be induced to say it, and he should not pretend to think repeatedly to paralyze Cao Cao, and a quick promise will only make Cao Cao, who is seriously suspicious, suspicious, suspicious, even if he wants to give up Pengcheng, he really uses Pengcheng to exchange his family, His reputation has been swept away since then, and even if the world discovers it in the future, he will make a strategic decision, and I am afraid that he will make a big fuss.
"It's a pity that Cao Chun escaped, otherwise he could be exchanged for him." Lu Bu just wanted to exchange Cao Chun, Cao Cao couldn't do this now, and would rather send his family to Lu Bu to stabilize Chen Deng. Zhang Chang thought that Lu Bu was unwilling to exchange Cao Chun for him, he was taken hostage, and once the battle situation was unfavorable, he would use it to threaten Cao Cao, and secretly despised Lu Bu for being greedy for life and afraid of death.
"Except for Cao Chun, I don't know what Che Xuan thinks can use my Pengcheng to make him convict him?"
"General Zuo's family is the prime minister's key order to be strictly guarded, once there is a loss, the Che Assassin Shi's family will not be protected, please forgive the general."
"The history of the car stab is kind to a certain person, and a certain must be rewarded, and the history of the car spur takes a fancy to me Pengcheng, just say it." Lu Bu changed his name from calling him by name.
"I'm afraid only the general's subordinate Peng... The city can resist the crime of stabbing the history of the car and releasing the hostages! ”
"Bold car, keep saying that for a certain good, it turns out that he wants to take away my inheritance! Come on, pull it down and cut it down. Lu Bu said that change will change, and stood up angrily from the main seat and drew his sword in his hand.
"General Zuo spares his life, and the two armies will fight against each other!" Zhang Chang was so frightened by Lu Bu's sudden change of face that he knelt down, this murderous maniac even dared to kill thousands of warriors, he was a small staff, Lu Bu killed him, although he was already ready to be killed when he came, but at this time, he was still very afraid.
"Lord, don't kill, don't kill." Mi Fang and Zheng Kai, who had been watching coldly, got up and persuaded: "Lord, as the saying goes, if the two armies fight and don't kill each other, if the lord kills Zhang Chang today, who will dare to send an envoy to me in the future?" Think twice! ”
Lu Bujian pointed at Zhang Chang: "The thief has a bad heart and wants to plot my foundation, if you don't kill it, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart, and I will pull it down and kill it." ”
If Chen Deng returns to Xiapi, he will definitely abuse and kill the lord's family to vent his anger, Che Xuzhou is worried about the lord, why doesn't the lord consider one or two for Che Xuzhou? I hope the lord will think twice! ”
After listening to Zheng Kai, Lu Bu was slightly disappointed in his heart, although Zheng Kai was shallow in learning, short-sighted and literate, and he still needed a large number of talents to help govern in the future, he not only did not discourage the exchange of family members with Pengcheng, but faintly favored Zhang Chang's side, Lu Bu already understood that he was punished by himself for losing the camp, and he held a grudge, and the gap had already arisen, I am afraid that he was waiting for him to stand on the edge of the cliff and push himself from behind.
"The death penalty can be avoided and the living crime cannot be escaped, come on, pull him down, cut off his nose with the hatred in Xuewu's heart, and then beat him with a stick."
Lu Bu watched Zhang Chang's nose cut off, the blood flowed non-stop, and then he was carried by a group of soldiers to the outside of the camp, while walking, Zhang Chang turned around and scolded: "Lu Bu Pifu, you humiliated me today, the history of the car assassination will not dare to send your family and you again, and when Chen Deng arrives in two days, your family will be very difficult to survive." ”
Lu Bu put on a distant look, ignored Zhang Chang, and chanted in a sad and low voice: "Ask what the world is like, and teach people to live and die." ”
Zhang Chang forgot the pain of having his nose cut for a while, and was infected by Lu Bu's sad emotions.
Lu Bu just wants to express his reluctance to his family through this sentence, and pave the way for such a mediocre thing as exchanging Pengcheng for his family in the future. He really wanted to change his family immediately, and the day his family was in Xiapi would be dangerous for one more day, but he couldn't, he wanted to delay Cao Bing's crossing of the Huaishui as much as possible, and paralyze Cao Cao as much as possible.
Lu Bu has been thinking about what method to use to retreat from Pengcheng logically without being suspected by Cao Cao, when he was riding a tiger and difficult to get off the ground, he didn't expect Che Zhou to be so understanding, the only fly in the ointment is that he will be capricious and mercenary in the future, and he will have one more absurd and obscene stupe, I don't know how many people who want to vote for themselves will be discouraged after this article is added to his own life evaluation.
Since you want to act, of course you need to act in a full set. Lu Bu called Zheng Kai and Mi Fang to discuss, he wanted to find out if Mi Fang and Zheng Kai were determined to rebel against him, so that he could take precautions as soon as possible.
"Can Zifang and the military advisor help me break the strategy of Xia Pi?"
"Xiapi Chengjian, our army now has only more than 2,000 people, how to conquer it?"
"There's nothing to be done."
Mi Fang and Zheng Kai replied at the same time.
"Won't I be able to save my family?" Lu Bu pressed his chest and pretended to be in pain.
"It's not that there is no way, but I don't know if the lord is willing or not?" Zheng Kai said.
"You mean to exchange Pengcheng for my family?" Lu Bu pretended to be shocked.
"If the lord cares about the comfort of his family, there is no other way." Zheng Kai paused, and his voice turned into worry and said: "The lord destroyed Chen Deng's family, Chen Deng will return to the army in a few days, he has thousands of elite soldiers in his hands, and now that Cao Chun has fled, Prime Minister Cao Cheng will inevitably hand over the lord's family to him in order to appease Chen Deng." ”
At this time, Lu Bu had already affirmed that Zheng Kai had not only made up his mind, but also began to plan himself, from the former Cao thief to the current Cao Cheng Prime Minister.
"Have I not lost my inheritance? How to fight the Cao thief? ”
"For the sake of the lord's family, I have a plan to help." Mi Fang saw that Lu Bu was gradually moved, and hurriedly fought and said.
Lu Bu was overjoyed when he heard it: "Will the plan come out?" ”
"Xuande Gong handed over Xiao Pei to my brother Mizhu for defense, and only brought me a letter of resignation. Xiao Pei in Xuande under the governance of the people's livelihood, my Mi family in Xiao Pei warehouse hoarding hundreds of thousands of loads of grain, Cao thief in Xuzhou for several months, and the lord of the stalemate for a long time, grain and grass has long been out of money, the lord with Xiao Pei's abundant grain and grass troops will be able to repel the Cao thief, with the Cao thief retreat, lead the army to pursue will be able to defeat the Cao thief. ”
"High!" Lu Bu gave Mi Fang a thumbs up, Xiao Pei Yinshi? Liu Bei is deeply rooted in Xiaopei, and he was beaten all over the ground looking for teeth, and then he defected to Cao Cao to entangle Chen Deng to defeat himself who only occupied Xiapi, and he was able to blow this so fresh and refined. And Mi Zhu, who is loyal to Liu Bei, may open the door and surrender because of one of his bamboo slips? If there is no backhand, I really believe his nonsense, and if I abandon Peng Cheng, I will be ambushed by Mi Zhu before Xiaopei arrives, and it will be too late to cry at that time.
"Let me think about it again." Lu Bu pretended to be lost in thought. Lu Bu knew that the rest was naturally delayed now, and after two days of delay, he made a helpless appearance and reluctantly changed to his family.
