"Lu Bu destroyed Yuan Shao's defeat of Cao Ying's army was invincible for a while, once he was pacified, he would inevitably take the many great families in Sizhou, because he would never leave a force that could threaten his rule, from his past conquest of the Yellow Turban, crusade against Xiqiang in some of the means can be seen that he is a ruthless person.

In my opinion, there are only two ways to go now, one is to avoid Lu Bu's edge. The family avoided Xichuan or Jiangnan, and took advantage of the natural dangers of the mountains and rivers and the Yangtze River to hope to block Lu Bu's Bingzhou Iron Cavalry. But it is difficult to escape for a lifetime, and this road is actually a strategy. Sima Yi said with a flat face, as if what he said had nothing to do with him.

The middle-aged man was Sima Yi's father, Sima Fang, and Sima Fang said with a smile: "What is Zhongda's second way?" ”

Sima Yi glanced at the eldest brother on the side, glanced at his father on the throne, lowered his head and arched his hand: "The other way is to dedicate all the Sima family's assets to Lu Bu, and let my father and eldest brother join the command of Lu Bu as ministers, and rely on Lu Bu to make a new fortune with merit after conquering the world!" ”

"Second brother! You"

"Chungda"

"Father! Eldest brother!! Now that Lu Bu's momentum is clear, unless Lu Bu can die violently within five years, who else can stop his pace of dominating the world? Cao Ying? Liu Bei? Yuan Shu? Or is it Liu Jingsheng, who calls himself one of the 'Nine Juns' in Jingzhou?

At this time, if we can give up these yellow and white things in our home, and use this to ride the chariot of Lu Bu to dominate the world, after the world is unified, even if Lu Bu suppresses us, but when we have the reputation of a meritorious man, can Lu Bu still brave the infamy of the bird to hide the bow and suppress it?

At that time, with the ability of his father and eldest brother, wouldn't it be easy to earn more prosperous family assets? After all, more generals are used to fight the world, and almost all of them are civil servants who rule the world!! Sima Yi didn't wait for his father and eldest brother to finish speaking, and then interrupted Sima Lang and Sima Fang's words.

After hearing Sima Yi's words, Sima Lang and Sima Fang glanced at each other, and finally were silent.

After a long time, Sima Fang stroked his beard and said: "Zhongda, you just said that I and your eldest brother will go to the office, so don't you go out with us Zhongda?" Or do you have other plans? ”

Sima Yi pointed to his face self-deprecatingly: "Doesn't my father know my face?" As long as anyone who knows a little bit about physiognomy knows the meaning of 'eagle and wolf Gu', if I don't go out of Shi Lu Bu, I can probably give the Sima family more hope to survive and carry forward, otherwise once my face is seen by some people under Lu Bu, the Sima family is afraid that it will suffer an unwarranted disaster. ”

Sima Fang sighed lightly, and said with some regret: "Zhongda, although you are young, but your intelligence is more than ten times better than your eldest brother and me, if you are not born with a vision, no matter which prince you are in the future, at least you can show what you have learned in your chest, it's a pity"

Sima Yi chuckled and said, "Do you know if you are blessed? I may not be able to take charge of the military and government in the future, but being an outsider may not be a pleasure. ”

Dividing line

"Is the message accurate? Lu Bu did not take advantage of the situation to attack Xuzhou, but went to attack Jizhou? Li Ru asked the scout with a frown.

"The news is from Hebei, absolutely accurate!" The scout replied firmly.

After Li Ru received the scout's affirmative answer, he took a deep breath: "What a ruthless Lu Bu!" ”

"Sir? What's wrong? Shouldn't it be a good thing that Lu Bu didn't call? Liu Bei asked a little strangely.

Li Ru smiled bitterly at Liu Bei on the side: "At the beginning, I tried my best to persuade the lord not to welcome Cao Ying into Xuzhou, what is happening now?" Lu Bu went to Jizhou, but Cao Ying's army was stationed in Xuzhou every day waiting for the lord's grain and grass supply, and the people of Xuzhou originally hated Cao Ying, and now the lord's acceptance of Cao Ying has made many squires and people complain about the lord, not to mention the grain and grass of more than 100,000 troops to be paid every month? ”

Liu Bei shook his head and said: "Some time ago, Lu Bu's army was too strong, if I refused Cao Ying, Lu Bu would not have crossed the river to fight Jizhou now, I am afraid that Xuzhou, which has no danger to defend, has long been a cruising area for the iron cavalry of Bingzhou." ”

Li Ru sighed and said, "Then now that Lu Bu has gone to Jizhou, do we still have to raise Cao Ying's army of more than 100,000?" If Cao Ying has bad intentions towards us in Xuzhou one day, the lord is only afraid that it will be too late to regret it! ”

"I treat people with integrity, and I don't think Cao Ying will harm me." Liu Bei looked righteous and indifferent.

Li Ru was about to continue to persuade, when he suddenly saw a complicated look in Liu Bei's eyes, and then thought of Tao Qian's seal, and immediately knew that Liu Bei didn't want to get rid of Cao Ying, but that there was no excuse at all. Li Ru's small eyes turned slightly, arched his hand, and turned away under the surprised gaze of Guan Yu and Zhang He, and Liu Bei's eyes behind him were full of expectation

Second, there is an undercurrent surging in Xuzhou City.

"Did you hear that? Cao Ying, a dog thief who is short of food in the army, actually used those dead people to make human meat for the soldiers under his command to eat!! ”

"What!! Is there such a thing? ”

"Abominable Cao thief!! To do such a thing that is inferior to a beast! Let's go to Liu Yuanjun and ask him to drive the Cao thief out of Xuzhou!! ”

"Liu Envoy Jun is a benevolent and righteous king, when he saw that Cao Ying's army was defeated and couldn't bear to let more than 100,000 soldiers under his command die of hunger, he sent a little military food and temporarily tolerated Cao Ying to occupy a county in Xuzhou, and now Cao Ying has done such an intolerable thing, it is to let Liu Envoy Jun drive Cao Ying out!"

"Let's go! Go to the Assassin Mansion and ask Liu Zhijun for his life!! ”
