Chapter 327: Capturing Zhou Cang and Killing the Zhou Dynasty (Middle)
Within a few days, Lu Zhi seemed to have asked people to find out where the Yellow Turban Army had gathered, so he asked the two generals decided by the discussion meeting to go on the expedition, and in order not to let those thieves know their movements, he learned the strategies of those thieves, adopted the strategy of breaking up the whole into parts, and gathered in a certain city in batches.
A few days followed by calm days, and all the generals had no other expression on their faces except the resentment that they had been robbed of their exploits, and they seemed to be full of confidence in the battle, as if they thought that the two generals would definitely win, and they did not look at all worried about losing.
On the twelfth day, some of the soldiers who were seriously wounded and in tattered armor struggled to escape, and the soldiers in the city of course hurried to settle them.
And the return of these people also brought back bad news, Lu Zhi's face suddenly became gloomy after hearing it, and he waved his hand to let the soldiers withdraw, and asked him to send someone to call everyone over and hold another meeting.
At this time, Wu Sheng didn't know about this bad news, although he had expected this news, but he didn't have any subordinates to inquire about the news, so he could only stay here and wait for Lu Zhi's news.
In these days, Wu Sheng didn't do anything, just worked hard to guide Zhao Yueying to learn the three martial arts that he hadn't learned yet, including the secret weapon finger magic power, footwork Ling Bo micro step, palm Tianshan Six Yang Palm, although because the number of days is too small, the beauty is not profound, but at least it has been introduced.
In addition to teaching martial arts, Wu Sheng also took out a lot of medicinal materials or heavenly treasures to help Zhao Yueying wash the meridians and veins, after a round of tossing and turning, such as soaking in medicinal baths and taking them directly. The beauty of the beauty finally rose by three points, from the original thirteen to sixteen.
And on this day, Wu Sheng was sitting cross-legged on his bed practicing internal strength, when he suddenly heard someone outside the door talking: "Master Wu, are you there?" ”
Hearing someone call him, Wu Sheng slowly put away his skills, then got out of bed and walked to the table to take a cup, poured a glass of water and took a sip, and then said, "Come in." ”
When someone pushed open the door, Wu Sheng found that the person was a soldier. I saw him walk in directly and report: "Master Wu." Lord Lu asked you to go to the place where you had a meeting a few days ago to hold another meeting. ”
"I know, you go out." Wu Sheng frowned, then waved his hand to let the soldier leave.
"Yes." Even if Wu Sheng didn't say anything, the soldier would leave after the report. I saw him respectfully hug a fist. And he went out from here.
Once again, to the reception hall. This time, those generals did not make a fuss or talk like last time, because they all saw the expression on Lu Zhi's face like ink, indicating that he was in a very unhappy mood. Therefore, no one dares to touch this mine that explodes as soon as it is stepped on.
After Lu Zhi saw Wu Sheng come in, the gloomy expression on his face was only a little better, and then his eyes turned to the soldiers standing next to him, and he said in a low tone: "Tell me about the situation of this battle, and how General Zhu and General Xiong have become." ”
At a glance, Wu Sheng saw that the soldier was dressed in tatters, and there was still a bit of blood on this person's body, so it was obvious that he was stained with the smell of belonging to the battlefield, so Wu Sheng judged that he was a soldier who had fled back.
After glancing at him, Wu Sheng found his place and sat down to listen to the defeat of the two generals.
"In the beginning, we made good progress, so the brothers used the tactic of breaking up into pieces very smoothly, dispersed in batches, and then gathered at the meeting place where they were directed, and surrounded the Yellow Turban Thieves."
The man paused, and then said: "All this is very smooth, although we succeeded in the Yellow Turban Thieves, and those thieves were very panicked at first, but they were all suppressed by the generals of the Yellow Turban Thieves, and then the thieves came out with a leader, saying that they would fight alone. ”
"General Xiong rode forward on horseback, and the villain stood in front of him, and heard that the leader of the Yellow Turban Thieves was called Zhou, yes, Zhou Cang, and then that person's martial arts were very powerful, and he actually beheaded General Xiong under the horse in one round." When this person recalled this incident, there was an extremely frightened look in his eyes, but after hearing Lu Zhi's light cough, the fear in his heart gradually disappeared, and he continued.
"General Zhu saw General Xiong die, so he led the army to kill forward, but the Zhou Cang thief army was simply not human, and suddenly ran forward to kill General Zhu, our brothers couldn't stop him at all, and hundreds of people were hacked to death by him alive, and finally we really couldn't resist escaping, if you adults think that the villain is a deserter, you will cut off the villain's head, I hope you can let go of the brothers." Speaking of the back, the soldier knelt down directly and kowtowed to Lu Zhi continuously.
"Forget it, you also bring back this precious news, even if the merits and demerits are offset, it doesn't count as a deserter, but next time you must go to war." Lu Zhi's face changed uncertainly, and finally sighed, and said with a wave of his big hand.
"Thank you, Lord Lu." The soldier kowtowed again with great gratitude, saying that although they may not be able to survive the next battle, the soldiers who died in the battle will be subsidized by the state, and if they are judged to be deserters, they will be executed lightly and their bodies hanged in honor of you. In the worst case, even a battalion was executed, as well as the three clans of deserters, as for the state's subsidies, don't even think about it.
Now that he got this execution, the soldier was very grateful, and then Lu Zhi signaled him to retreat.
"Now that you've got a startle, do you have any good suggestions?" At this time, Lu Zhi felt a little headache and rubbed his temples lightly, and then asked everyone.
"The sneak attack failed, and now we can only attack, because the Yellow Turban Thieves already know that we have found them, and if we don't make any more moves, next time it will not be us who will hit them, but they will attack us." Tian Chou walked out and analyzed for you.
"For this Lord Ben, I know, but what is the plan to annihilate that team of Yellow Turban thieves in one fell swoop, is it really necessary to adopt a plan of forcible attack? Master Tian, can't you do anything about it? Lu Zhi sat solemnly, looked at the people present and continued to ask.
"The subordinates are incompetent, please punish the adult." Tian Chou shook his head a little frustratedly, and then said with his fists clenched.
"I don't blame you, since the sneak attack has failed now, and you can only take a strong attack, which general will lead the troops to battle." Lu Zhi waved his hand, and then said.
Hearing Lu Zhi's words, the scene suddenly quieted down, because all the generals present were not blind and arrogant people, and they had all fought each other, although General Zhu's strength was in the middle position among them, but General Xiong, that is, the rough-looking person, was in the top five, but he was killed by others in one round, and if it were them, the outcome would not be different.
So the field suddenly became silent, as if the whole world had stopped, no matter who did not move, some looked at their boots blankly, as if they were some peerless treasures, and some looked upward, as if there were beautiful women there were all over the country.
Lu Zhi already knew in his heart what these people were, and they were definitely eager to compete for merit, but they couldn't avoid this kind of extremely dangerous task. However, in Lu Zhi's heart, there was already a candidate, so he turned his eyes to Wu Sheng's position, and saw that he was pretending to be crazy and stupid like those generals, and suddenly opened his mouth to say something, but he didn't say it later.
As a military advisor, you don't have to know what the lord thinks, but you must know what the lord wants to do, and Tian Chou is also very good at this point, this person sees where Lu Zhi's gaze looks, and he knows what Lu Zhi wants to do.
So Tian Chou stood up first, hugged his fists and said to Lu Zhi: "Lord Lu, there is an excellent candidate for his subordinates, he is General Wu, this person has extraordinary strength, and he will definitely be able to annihilate the Yellow Turban Thief in one fell swoop." ”
When the generals present heard what Tian Chou said, they all looked at Wu Sheng with gloating eyes, as long as they were not allowed to fight, they would be able to say anything.
"Thank you Lord Tian for your love, it's just a cloth cloth, how can you lead the troops to fight, so this time the opportunity to make meritorious service is still handed over to your lords." Wu Sheng walked out with a respectful expression, although he couldn't see how much sincerity there was in this respect, he saw him holding his fists and shirking it.
"This"
Originally, Lu Zhi was very happy to see Tian Chou being the first to come out and elect Wu Sheng, but when he heard what Wu Sheng said, his face suddenly became ugly.
Although because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion now, the imperial court ordered everyone to annihilate the Yellow Turbans and allow them to lead the troops, but they could only recruit people from the local area, and for the soldiers who led the imperial court, it was absolutely impossible for Wu Sheng to have no official position, so Lu Zhi's face became so ugly.
In addition, Wu Sheng has no military merits now, because he is in his disciple Liu Bei, so he doesn't know what credit he has made, even if he wants to reward him for a tooth general or a lower position, he can't do it, forcibly rewarding him will only make the people below dissatisfied, and for the army where the generals and soldiers are not in unison, they will definitely not win the battle.
Unless you spend money to buy officials, but now that the emperor is far away, even if Lu Zhi is willing to spend his own money to buy officials, but the time consumed is too long, and by the time Wu Sheng becomes an officer, the Yellow Turban Army will already fight.
"Zitai is willing to give up the position of military advisor, and ask Master Wu to take on the position of military advisor and accompany the army to the battle." At this moment, Tian Chou said to Lu Zhi with his fists in his hands.
Military advisor is a special position, some people have not made any merit to become this position, for example, Zhuge Kongming, as soon as he came out of the mountain, Liu Bei was named a military advisor, although Wu Sheng wants to be in this position will make some people uncomfortable, but as long as Lu Zhi vigorously excludes public opinion, there is no problem for him to be in this position.
