Chapter 237: The undercurrent is surging, and each is plotting
That night, after instructing his henchmen and Lei Bo to prepare food and clothes to send them, he summoned his confidants and asked: "I have a plan, if it is successful, then we can stay away from Yuzhou, a place of right and wrong, but I don't know how many people can follow me?" ”
"If the master wants to leave, we will set off immediately, according to the master's martial arts, where can't we go to the world?" He is a person like a disciple who is accepted by Lu Meng, and he has a good relationship with Lu Meng on weekdays, and he can be said to be loyal to Lu Meng. Hot Books
"I had a life-saver before, and now I am looking for my help, but I don't know that he has never put me in his eyes, the husband has clear grievances, I am trying to take this opportunity to go with his grievances, so that I can be unrestrained between this heaven and earth, the world is big, we should be free to gallop." After Lu Meng finished speaking, he looked at his henchman with arrogance on his face, obviously having made up his mind.
"In that case, I will tempt it for my master." Seeing this, this henchman lowered his head and thought about it for a while, and agreed to it.
"Okay, if you want to do it, you order them to pack up quietly, and if it's done, we'll leave." Lu Meng waved his hand to let him go down, and he sat alone in the room and began to think about it, that Lu Dai was his boss, not to mention that Lu Dai didn't have much contact with him on weekdays, he had to think of a way to make Lu Dai unable to refuse.
"Master, Lu Juncheng sent someone to deliver the news, saying that the enemy army is close to the outside of the city, and it can be done in one day, so that the master is ready to fight at any time." While Lu Meng was pondering, a servant of his family rushed in anxiously and shouted loudly.
"Enemy troops? Lu Dai? Lu Meng's brows furrowed slightly, obviously surprised by the unexpected news, he didn't expect the war to come so quickly, and then he wanted to find Lei Bo, but he was a little clear in his heart. Thinking of the war he was about to face, Lu Meng couldn't help but think of his wife Xu Yan who had not passed the door, his head was grunting, and his face showed surprise for a long time, only to see his big hand slap on the desk, and a loud shout couldn't help but burst out of his mouth: "I'm such a fool, why didn't I think of it before, just do it......"
Like Lu Meng, many people in the city tonight have lost sleep. Zhuge Jin's army came too quickly and suddenly, and suddenly disrupted the plans of many people, and so did Lu Dai, originally he thought that when he said that all the defenders in the county would gather, he would rely on many armies to make peace with Zhuge Jin and guard the people of Qian County, but now that the defenders have not arrived, the enemy army has arrived first, how can he not feel panicked?
"Captain Chen, now that the war is approaching in a blink of an eye, with the five thousand defenders in the city alone, can you be sure that you will guard the county?" At this time, in the county guard's mansion, Lu Dai had already looked for the lieutenant in the county, although he had a good strategy, but some time ago Yuan Shu transferred almost all the trained soldiers in the county back to Shouchun, at this time, what he had in his hands was just some people who had just put down their hoes, this kind of situation, so that he did not have a trace of confidence in his heart.
This Chen Duwei's name is Chen Xiong, and he is a member of a small family in Qian County, because of his family's downfall, he still has to rely on him to serve in the city to preserve the family, so he is very grateful to Lu Dai.
"I heard that Zhuge Jin's soldiers are extremely elite, and now the guards in the city have just begun to practice, if they are forced to go into battle, I am afraid that they will not be able to block an impact, and the general will think that it is almost impossible to defend it, just to see how long it can last." Chen Xiong came from a humble background, and he didn't have the arrogance of many children of the family, and he did just the right thing for his own designation, Lu Dai asked, he didn't open his mouth and close his mouth like those arrogant people, and replied with a solemn expression.
Lu Dai listened, his face darkened, for him, he didn't have much for the official ** in his heart, but after all, it was for the official, although his official position was forced by Yuan Shu to arrange, but he was not willing to let the people of a place suffer from war because of his reasons, but he was unwilling after all, let himself be in his lifetime, with the name of a surrendered minister, trouble, and suddenly occupied all of his heart.
"If the adults want to defend the county, the last general will have some ideas, but if this is the case, I am afraid that this county will no longer have a place for me to stand." Chen Xiong lowered his head, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the gloom on Lu Dai's face, and began to struggle in his heart, and his face also became bright and dark, but Lu Dai was thinking about his own affairs and did not notice this situation. After being quiet in the room for a long time, Chen Xiong thought of Lu Dai's kindness to him, and he couldn't help but secretly decide in his heart, and said in a suppressed voice.
"Really?" He was originally from Guangling, and went south to Yangzhou to avoid trouble, and he was very unfamiliar with Qian County, since he was pulled over by Yuan Shuqiang until now, it has only been more than half a month, and now he has been tortured like this, Chen Xiong's words are like a bright light in the dark, which suddenly surprised Lu Dai.
"Your Excellency also knows that the defenders in the city are just newly recruited people, so how can they defend the city? If you want to defend Qian County, you have to ......" Chen Xiong gradually lowered his voice and whispered softly in Lu Dai's ear.
Lu Dai nodded lightly while listening, Chen Xiong's words could be regarded as opening a new direction for him, and with full joy, he had already forgotten the consequences that Chen Xiong had to bear after what he said.
Lowering his head and carefully thinking about the pros and cons, Lu Dai made a ruthless decision in his heart, and glanced at Chen Xiong, who was standing quietly with his hands hanging down beside him, but he couldn't calm down in his heart: after all, he underestimated the world......
And at the same time, the Xu family, the Hu family, the Wang family, the Ding family and other families in the city of Qian County rarely gathered together, Xu, Hu, Wang, Ding four families are the largest four families in the county, the rest are some relatively small families, there were originally Cao, Xiahou two families, but the two families with Cao Cao went to Hanzhong, and gradually moved to Hanzhong.
"Everyone, I came to ride and gallop and shout before, everyone must know about it, and now it can be said that it is the moment when the lives of me and others are at stake, I don't know what you think?" On the main seat, the head of the Xu family sat firmly, as the initiator of this meeting, he sat on the main seat as a matter of course, and when he saw that the people who came were almost there, he got up first and asked everyone in the room.
"According to the old man's opinion, this time we are too nervous, that Zhuge Jin is also from a family, the name of the Langya Zhuge family is much stronger than ours, and his subordinates, there are countless famous people, according to the old man's opinion, if he enters the city, we will only lose some interests, and we can't fight against its army for this little profit." Among several families, in addition to the Xu family, the head of the Ding family can be regarded as the most cunning among them, of course, this is not to say that his character is not good, on the contrary, compared to the Hu and Wang families, the reputation of the Ding family in Qian County is still good, but this Ding family is a typical miser face, and he attaches great importance to gold and silver objects.
But it turned out that among the Ding family, there was a strange person named Ding Fei among the nephews in the later life. His greed for money is better than his ancestors, which can be described as the greed that goes deep into the bone marrow, but his people have a benefit: reason. Growing up in an environment like the Ding family, he has a natural acumen for gold and silver objects, and at the same time as he gathers wealth, he has his own unique vision, knowing what can and cannot be taken, and it is because of this that the Ding family has become rich at an extremely rapid speed after he came into contact with the affairs of the family. And this time, when the invitation letter of the Xu family was delivered, Ding Fei had already briefly sorted out the matter for the Ding family, which was the origin of the words of the head of the Ding family.
"Yes, what Ding Gong said is very true, they beat them, and after the fight, it is not up to us to govern the city." As soon as the head of the Ding family finished speaking, someone followed and echoed, and everyone turned their heads to look, but it was the Wu family who wore a pair of pants with the Ding family on weekdays, and secretly despised it in their hearts, but they didn't go to the interface, and the scene became a little embarrassing in an instant.
"Now that the war is approaching, no matter what the result is, I think we should first grasp the military power, and if there are no soldiers and no power in the war, wouldn't we have to be slaughtered by others?" Seeing that the atmosphere was a little wrong, Hu Yan, the head of the Hu family, hurriedly got up and diverted the topic.
"That's exactly how it should be." Without waiting for everyone's reaction, Wang Sheng, the head of the Wang family, said loudly in agreement, which made everyone in the room startled, and stared at the two of them in surprise, but they couldn't understand in their heads, when did the Hu and Wang families, who have a lot of contradictions, reach an agreement?
Everyone here is the head of the family, who is worse than whom, and soon, everyone thought about this problem thoroughly, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, the people of the Wang and Hu families have a great vision.
"Duke Xu, if you remember correctly, your son-in-law who has not yet passed through the door is one of the five captains in the city, right? If you use it, will you be able to control the defenders of the city? Since this matter was mentioned by Hu Yan, he naturally already had an idea in his heart, and when he saw that everyone had agreed, he spoke again to pick out the words.
The eyes of everyone in the room suddenly fell on the head of the Xu family, but they saw his face beating white, and when he looked at Hu Yan, he saw him sitting firmly in his position, his expression did not move. Everyone immediately suppressed the worries in their hearts gently, and there was a smile on their faces, and they were waiting to see a good show.
"Xu Gong, in my opinion, that Lu Meng is a bold person, good character, except for his background, there is no impeccable, now it is in troubled times, but it is the opportunity for people like him to make contributions, once he can return in brocade clothes, naturally ......" Hu Yan did not finish his words, but the meaning of his words was self-evident.
The head of the Xu family did not receive Hu Yan's affection, but his face became even more angry, one arm raised and pointed straight at him, his lips trembled, and he said with difficulty: "You ......"
