After a while, there was a sound of footsteps, Lu An looked up, and saw a young man walking in under the leadership of the guards, this young man was wearing a scholar's uniform, but his figure was quite tall, not to mention strong, but not as thin as most of the other scholars, and it looked like a ranger.

"This attribute is not bad, although it is not as good as Guo Jia and Jia Xu for the time being, but it is comparable to Lu Su!" After checking Xu Shu's attributes with the system, Lu An couldn't help but nodded slightly, Xu Shu's attributes are still very worthy of his reputation in later lives, and that cultivation characteristic Lu An has not seen before, but thinking that Xu Shu can become this kind of super-first-class strategist in a few years after abandoning Wu Congwen, Lu An understands that this characteristic should mean that this guy still has a lot of room for improvement, and if you give a little exercise and time, maybe your intelligence attribute can be strengthened.

"In Xia Xu Shu, the character is straight, meet General Lu!" After Xu Shu entered the door, he saluted Lu An very respectfully.

"Didn't you say your name was Shan Fu? Why do you call yourself Xu Shu now? Although he knew Xu Shu's real name in his heart, when he heard Xu Shu take the initiative to say his real name, Lu An still felt a little surprised, this guy also said that his name was Shan Fu when he asked to see him at the door, but now when he sees himself, what does it mean?

"When I was young, because my friends were bullied by Haoqiang, I once killed people in my hometown, and in order to escape the pursuit of the government, I have been turning into a single blessing, but this time I am fortunate to see General Lu himself, but I can't use a pseudonym to deceive a hero like you!" Xu Shu said respectfully. The words showed absolute respect and respect for Lu An.

"Why are you so confident in me? Aren't you afraid that I will punish you for this? Lu Andao.

I have to say that Lu An who said Xu Shu is quite comfortable, Lu An thinks that he is not a person who likes to listen to whiskers and horses, but after feeling that Xu Shu has a very sincere respect for himself in his words, he can't help but feel a burst of darkness in his heart, with his current status, it is nothing to be respected by ordinary people, but it is more rewarding to be revered by this kind of talent, this is like picking up a girl, picking an ordinary girl will only feel a little excited, but when she soaks to the top beauty, she will immediately be overjoyed, and the two are the same truth.

"General Lu is a sage man, you love the people like sons, but you are extremely suppressed, you must also know that these families often oppress the people, and even the people who are often harmed are often ruined, although Shu killed people back then, but he still does not regret it, because the person who killed is the person who should be killed, I believe that General Lu will not embarrass me because of this!" Xu Shu said softly.

"Hehe, you said me so well, if I really cure your sins, wouldn't it ruin my image in your heart!" Lu An smiled faintly, but naturally changed the topic and asked, "Yuan Zhi, you said that you came to me because you wanted to tell me something, what is it?" ”

"I've been busy appeasing the people for the past two days, and I haven't paid much attention to the powerful families in Jiangxia County, right?" Xu Shu asked.

"Is there something wrong with them?" Lu An frowned and asked. For these powerful families, every time he captures the city, in order to avoid chaos, he will not pay attention to it for the time being, and only after the situation is stable, will he start to slowly treat them with the new policy, of course, Lu An does not think that the chaos that may occur after the city changes hands will have any impact on these families, after all, they all raise their own private soldiers.

"As far as you know, when Cai Mao retreated a few days ago, in addition to Jingzhou's troops, there were also a lot of private soldiers from various clans in Jiangxia County!" Xu Shu arched his hand.

"What do you mean?" Lu An asked. With the temperament of these families, they are willing to let Cai Mao take away the private soldiers they have worked so hard to raise, it seems that there are some problems here!

"Shu thinks that these powerful families should be because they reject General Lu's new policy, so they don't want General Lu to enter Jingzhou, so they collude with Liu Biao and prepare to send their own private soldiers to help Liu Biao defeat General Lu!" Xu Shu said softly.

"Hmph, Liu Cheng only has 50,000 troops left, even if there are more private soldiers of the family in it, what can it be? Moreover, the private army was only a slave before, not a marching army, and it was far worse than the regular army in terms of combat power and cooperation! Lu An smiled disdainfully.

What kind of goods are private soldiers, he doesn't know it, when he was conquering Jiangdong before, there was a family rebellion like that in Jingnan, although the single combat power of those private soldiers is not weak, but it is also uneven, when put together, it is a group of rabble, and it can bully some weak people under the will of the strong and strong, and the elite Jiangdong army that meets him is definitely a death.

"General Lu should not underestimate the number of private soldiers, Jingzhou is the belly of the world, extremely prosperous, in addition to the gathering of the people, these large and small families are naturally as many as cows."

Seeing that Lu An didn't care too much, Xu Shu reminded softly: "If all the families are willing to help Liu Biao, there should be at least tens of thousands of private soldiers, although they are not as well-trained as the regular army, but at least they can form a combat force, and if it is a city defense battle, the cooperation of the soldiers is not so high, just a simple training can pull the city head to defend!" ”

"Are you saying that it is very likely that these families will unite and use tens of thousands of private soldiers to cooperate with Liu Biao to help him defend the city?" Lu An's face became a little bad at this time, he didn't doubt that he had the ability to capture Jingzhou, after all, his generals were brave and strong, and the morale of the army was also booming, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem to take Jingzhou, but if he encountered strong resistance, wouldn't he have to increase the casualties of the Jiangdong children under his command, and how would he see Jiangdong's father and elders at that time.

"It's very possible, that's why I came to remind General Lu!" Xu Shu said.

"Where are all the rest of the Jingzhou army retreating, does Yuan Zhi know?" All kinds of thoughts flashed in Lu An's mind, and he asked again.

"According to Shu's observation, Cai Mao and the others all retreated to Xiangyang!" Xu Shu replied.

"Xiangyang is the center of Jingzhou, not only the city wall is high, but also there is a huge moat outside, it seems that Liu Biao wants to play a battle against the water this time, it is really beyond my expectations!" Lu An couldn't help but muttered to himself.

These big and small families are willing to give their hard-earned private soldiers to Liu Biao to hinder him, he really didn't expect it, but this is a wake-up call for him, the road he is taking now, not only Jingzhou will be like this, but also in other states and counties in the future, after all, for the families, as long as they can repel their own danger, even if their private soldiers are wiped out, it is worth it.

"Yuan Zhi, thank you for coming to tell me, otherwise I would have really ignored this matter!" When he came back to his senses, Lu An arched his hand to Xu Shu to express his gratitude.

"General Lu is the lord of benevolence and righteousness recognized by the people of the world, and it is within his duty to do something for General Lu!" Xu Shu hurriedly returned the salute, looking a little flattered.

"I don't know if Yuan Zhi is willing to stay and help me and put down the traitors in the world for Your Majesty?" Lu An smiled lightly and began to recruit Xu Shu.

He believes that this matter should be successful, because from the previous conversation, he can feel that Xu Shu has a good impression of him, and even has some reverence for him.

"Xu Shu, meet the lord!" Sure enough, Xu Shu didn't say much, but took a few steps back and made a big salute.

"No need to be polite, Yuan Zhi is so great to stay, it is my Lu's blessing, I still lack a line of army Sima under the battle, I don't know if Yuan Zhi is willing to give in?" Lu An smiled and helped Xu Shu up and asked.

"Thank you, lord!" Xu Shu's face showed excitement and arched his hand.

Marching Sima, this position belongs to the military position that can be held by both civil and military personnel, but the size of the power depends on the situation, if you follow Liu Bei and other unlucky people who have no soldiers and no territory, it is estimated that it is worthless, far inferior to a school captain, but if you follow Lu An, a prince who has an army of more than 100,000 under his hands, it is a position of power, which can determine the fate of many soldiers, and he can take on heavy responsibilities when he first arrives, Xu Shu is naturally very satisfied.

"Lord, in fact, when I thought that Liu Biao wanted the private soldiers to help him defend the city, before he came, he thought of a way? I don't know if it can be done or not, is the lord willing to listen? Xu Shu stood up, hesitated, and then spit out softly.

"Since Yuan Zhi has a clever plan, I will naturally listen to it!" Lu An nodded.

"If Liu Biao really asks the private soldiers of the family to help, the lord can 、、、、、、、! like this" Xu Shu leaned closer and said cautiously.

"It's a clever plan, you can try it!" Lu An listened, and a smile of surprise appeared on his face, he didn't expect this Xu Shu to come with a buy one get two free, send himself, send the information, and send the solution, it's true

Be well prepared.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to make contributions!" Xu Shu said with a little apprehension.

"Haha, in the battle, nothing is absolute, having an idea is a good thing, and this strategy is very good and risk-free, Yuan Zhidang has some confidence in himself!" Lu An patted him on the shoulder and smiled. Xu Shu has never experienced actual combat after all, and even if he has a way, he is not so confident, but as long as he accumulates a little combat experience, he will presumably become confident.

"Thank you, Lord Gong, for your relief!"

"Come on, serve wine, I want to have a few drinks with Yuan Zhi to celebrate today!"
