It was late at night, and the generals who had come to the banquet returned to their respective tents and went to sleep. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

According to the combat readiness inspection system just announced by Lu Bu, in the future, whether the army is camped in the field or stationed in the city, it will arrange a shift to lead the team to inspect and patrol the camp at night, and the generals who can appear in this shift list are all the henchmen and descendants of the army who actually lead more than 1,000 soldiers and horses.

The general who served as the combat readiness inspection task, Lu Bu called him the "duty officer". According to Lu Bu's setting, the duty guard officer has the right to deal with the situation on the spot, except for the transfer of more than 100 troops and other major matters, the duty guard officer can handle the rest of the military affairs on his own, and does not have to personally ask the chief general Lu Bu for instructions.

This was a practice of Lü Bu to decentralize some of the military powers, and it was also the beginning of his intention to train important generals. In addition, this is also an important foreshadowing for him to reform the army in the future.

Lu Zhi and Chen Gong expressed their appreciation for the "duty officer" system formulated by Lu Bu himself, although they did not fully understand Lu Bu's intentions, they could also think of the main role and significance of it.

The military general who served as the duty officer for the first time tonight was Gao Shun, because the shift started with the highest-ranking general. Needless to say, Gao Shun is ranked first under Lu Bu's account.

Lu Bu came out of the tent, carrying a jar of wine in his hand, and walked in the direction of Ding Yuan's tent.

Gao Shun, who was patrolling the camp, did not say a word, and silently followed Lu Bu dozens of steps away.

Lu Bu came to Ding Yuan's tent and asked softly, "Has Du Wei ever slept?" The old subordinate Lu Bu visited. ”

Ding Yuan, who was sitting sleepless in the tent, heard Lu Bu's voice, so he said, "It's Feng Xian, come in." ”

Lu Bu walked into the tent, put down the two clay bowls on top of the wine jar, pulled out the mud seal, poured the bowls full of turbid wine, and then invited Ding Yuan to drink together.

Lu Bu raised the wine bowl and said to Ding Yuan: "When I came to the account of the commander tonight, I was a little apprehensive and uneasy, for fear that we would be embarrassed and speechless after seeing the captain. Later, I felt that I thought too much, the Captain and I were like father and son, and had never treated me badly over the years, although I used some means to seize the military power of the Captain, but I finally brought the state army out of Luoyang safely, so I came. ”

Ding Yuan also picked up the wine bowl and said to Lu Bu: "From the beginning when you came to me with your subordinates, I knew that you were a restless guy, and you would definitely not be subservient in this life, but I didn't expect your vision and knowledge to grow so fast, and even Dong Zhuo was repeatedly calculated by you." There is no one in the account today, and I will ask you, do you know why I appointed you as the master in the first place instead of letting you lead the troops? ”

Lu Bu nodded and said, "I didn't think about it before, and I still have a lot of resentment in my heart. Since he was assisted by Lu Shangshu and Chen Gongtai, Bu has come to his senses. Although the chief secretary is a civilian, he holds the secrets of the army, and no one who is particularly trusted by the chief general can hold the position. Du Wei wanted me to take off the vulgar side of a martial artist and lay a foundation for my future military and political transition. ”

Ding Yuan smiled happily and drank the turbid wine in the pottery bowl in a big gulp.

The words that Lu Bu said just now were indeed from his heart, he had been wondering in his heart why Ding Yuan had a ready-made tiger general who was not used, but let Lu Bu be the main bookkeeper, but after experiencing many things personally, he understood Ding Yuan's intentions.

Lu Bu poured Ding Yuan full of wine, and then said: "As seen by Yibu, the talent of the Du Wei is not on the march to fight, but in Shi Zhengmin, although Bu has taken away the military power from the Du Wei, but in the future, it will be handed over to the Du Wei to govern the power that is heavier than the military power, and I ask the Du Wei to wait patiently." ”

Ding Yuan has no opinion on Lu Bu's straightforwardness, tonight is the time to open the skylight and say bright words, he is unwilling in his heart, Lu Bu understands, so Lu Bu said so directly that he would give him other powers.

The eldest husband is born in the world, and he cannot be without power for a day. Lu Bu wants military power, and he also has the ability to control military power, so Ding Yuan can only do something else. Such a result is the best, saving suspicion and vigilance between each other, and not turning against each other in the future.

Ding Yuan and Lu Bu talked until late at night, and drank a jar of wine.

Lu Bu came out of Ding Yuan's tent, walked a few steps, and Gao Shun leaned forward.

Gao Shun reported to Lu Bu in a low voice: "Shangshu is above board, since he entered the camp, everything has followed military rules and discipline, and he has never been selfless. ”

Lu Bu nodded, agreeing with Gao Shun's evaluation of Lu Zhi. Lu Zhi's personality is indeed worthy of respect, and what he said is that he is a truly open-minded and learned Confucian.

Lu Bu told Gao Shun: "Xu Huang is an extraordinary person, with a steady and serious personality, and he has many similarities with you, don't despise him because he once served Bai Bojun for a short time, you can make friends with him in the future, and bring more with him, especially how to train the methods and means of trapping warriors." ”

"Keep your duties in mind." Gao Shun has always obeyed Lu Bu's words, regardless of the reason.

Back in his tent, Lu Bu asked the guards Zhao Shu and Li Fu to change shifts, one resting in the tent and the other guarding outside the tent. Chen Wei and Li Hei followed Hou Cheng to Tianjing Pass, and they would be responsible for Liu Bian's safety in the future, which was equivalent to Lu Bu's personal guards specially arranged for Liu Bian.

These attendants are all soldiers brought out by Lu Bu from Wuyuan, and their life and death honor and disgrace have long been tied to Lu Bu, and no one has left over the years.

Han people value righteousness and sacrifice their lives, like Chen Wei and others, from the day they signed the contract with the Lu family, they had to sacrifice their lives for the word "Xinyi".

The state army stayed at Jishan Pavilion to rest for a few days, and the scouts sent by Lu Bu to inquire about the news returned one after another.

A scout reported to Lü Bu that Li Lebu, who had been blocked from reinforcing Yang Feng, had joined Yang Feng, and it seemed that the two of them intended to rely on Anyi City for a long-term hold.

A scout reported to Lü Bu that the Southern Huns had begun to move north, and seemed to sense the danger.

Lü Bu asked Xu Huang to select two articulate and fearless soldiers from his camp and send them to Anyi City to send a message to Yang Feng and Li Le.

Lü Bu's original words are like this: I am about to lead the army to the north to pursue and suppress the Yufu tribe, these Southern Huns have been harming Hedong for a long time, and this time I will send them all to the grave. I will no longer meddle in the affairs between Bai Bojun and Dong Zhuo, and it has nothing to do with me how you want to deal with Niu Fu. I just have one request, don't mess with me! In addition, it is not allowed to take in the Southern Huns who have no way to escape. Otherwise, I will bring my military advisor Lu Zigan to fight your Baibo army in a decisive battle!

Lu Bu said this quite domineeringly, but he has this confidence now. It is estimated that Yang Feng, who fled into Anyi City, should come back to his senses now, and it was Lu Bu who deliberately let him live that day, otherwise Lu Bu could have led the cavalry to chase after him and kill the Bai Bo army who was coaxing and only caring about escaping.

Not to mention, Lu Zhi, who was blocking the road, did not pursue at all!
