Chapter 26: Losing His Wife and Losing His Soldiers (2)
Many people think that Lu Su is just a simple and good old man, except that he will echo Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu and act as a tool for sudden enlightenment, there is nothing special about it.
However, in fact, as the second governor of the Jiangdong Army, how could Lu Su not have a strategy?
According to historical records, long before Liu Bei looked at the thatched cottage and Zhuge Liang proposed a plan to divide the world into three parts, Lu Su had already proposed a plan to divide the world into two with Sun Quan.
And this two-way plan is quite similar to the three-point plan of the world, except that the protagonist who occupies Jingzhou and Sichuan Shu is replaced by Liu Bei to Sun Quan.
Under this strategy of Lu Su, the Jiangdong army would occupy the entire territory of Sichuan, Shu, Jingzhou and later Sun Wu, and rule the river with Cao Wei in the north, achieving a hegemony.
Moreover, if there is turmoil in the north, then Sun Wu, who divides the world into two parts, can also wait for the opportunity to move, starting from Jiangling and Hefei, taking the Central Plains in the north, and finally dominating the world.
There is no doubt that this dichotomy is attractive enough and extremely operational.
It's just that there was such a variable as Liu Bei later, which led to the bankruptcy of Lu Su's plan to divide the world into two parts, and to obtain Jingzhou and Sichuan Shu.
However, after this plan went bankrupt, Lu Su quickly adjusted his strategy, replacing his strategy of dividing the world into three parts of the world exactly the same as Zhuge Liang's, and persuaded Sun Quan to form a Sun-Liu alliance with Liu Bei to fight against Cao Cao.
It can be seen that Lu Su is undoubtedly not a person who does not know strategy, on the contrary, he has extremely high intelligence and is very good at improvisation.
Such historical characteristics will not change when it comes to this world of life souls with special abilities.
So as shrewd as Lu Su, as early as the moment he saw the strip of cloth that Liu Bei threw to him, he had already guessed who was coming to save him.
With that kind of handwriting, who else could there be besides the eldest lady of their Sun family?
Although fireworks suddenly exploded in Lu Su's army later, obscuring their vision, Lu Su remained calm.
He was not at all worried that he would lose Liu Bei's position.
After the fireworks dispersed, Lu Su ordered the soldiers to tie up Liu Bei's personal guards and bring them back to the camp.
Then, he pretended to be deceived by the two horses released by Sun Shangxiang, and when he was halfway there, he quietly returned to the place where they kidnapped Liu Bei, and waited in ambush there.
Lu Su guessed that Liu Bei would definitely return here to confirm the life and death of his guards, and Liu Bei actually did so.
Then, after seeing Liu Bei enter their encirclement, Lu Su did not rush out, but rather cleverly chose to release a round of arrows first.
Because he knew Liu Bei's life and soul ability, and he also knew that with Liu Bei's character, he would inevitably use this ability to try to save everyone on the field.
And this move will undoubtedly greatly consume Liu Bei's strength.
In this era of the Three Kingdoms, heroes and heroes are everywhere, and there are many talents, how can it be easy to leave a name?
"Xuande Gong, don't come to harm? We've been waiting here for a long time. Lu Su, who had unveiled the mask of the "good old man", said to Liu Bei, and behind him, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, and Zhou Tai rode out.
Liu Bei struggled to support his body with a male and female double-strand sword, and stood up with Sun Shangxiang's support: "Lu Su, don't say more!" You have already torn your face by killing my soldiers, kidnapping my subordinates, and shooting arrows at my soldiers, and I have no choice but to fight you to the death! ”
Hearing Liu Bei's words, Sun Shangxiang and her hundreds of servants and maids also took off the bows and arrows on their backs, facing enemies several times their size, and prepared to shoot.
However, Lu Su was not in a hurry to continue to move, he just glanced at these Xiaoji maids beside Liu Bei, and then said calmly:
"I'm afraid Xuande Gong has misunderstood! I have never harmed Mr. Kong Ming, and your escort has been sent back to the camp unharmed. As for these servants, they are domestic slaves who have defected from my lord's grandson's house. We're just cleaning up the portal, so why tear our faces? ”
When Liu Bei heard this, he couldn't help but be a little speechless, he was not good at verbal battles, and in the face of such strong words, he couldn't think of how to refute for a while.
However, at this moment, Sun Shangxiang stood in front of him, bent his bow and arrows, and scolded Lu Su: "These Xiaoji maids are my soldiers and my husband's soldiers, not some bullshit Sun family's house slaves!" Where is your turn to get you Lu Su to clean up the portal! ”
After saying that, Sun Shangxiang fired several arrows in succession, and then activated his life soul ability, Xiao Ji.
[Soul Ability: Snappy]
[Soul Effect: It can consume energy and enhance the arrows you shoot, including but not limited to improving accuracy, performing elemental enchantments, and enhancing the power of explosions]
Under the effect of [Xiao Ji] ability, the feather arrows turned into lightning in the air, bursting out with dazzling firelight, and shot straight towards Lu Su.
It's just that Lu Su had been prepared for this, and he was quite familiar with his eldest lady's abilities, he just waved his hand, and Cheng Pu beside him jumped up and used the iron spine snake spear to slash the feather arrows in the air.
The feather arrow did not hit Lu Su, so it fell ahead of schedule and exploded in the open space between Lu Su and Liu Beizhong, not hurting anyone, leaving only a few large holes with pits.
Seeing this, Liu Bei also knew that he had to fight head-on now, so he didn't say more, and used the remaining strength to buff Sun Shangxiang and Xiaoji's maids, and then raised his sword and rushed forward.
But at this moment, a voice came from the other side of the battlefield.
"Slow down."
Hearing this familiar voice, Liu Bei and Lu Su were both startled, and the two of them turned their heads and looked in the direction where the voice came from.
I saw in the distance, Mr. Kong Ming was in a wheelchair, pushed by Li Gui, and slowly appeared.
Then, everyone heard Mr. Kong Ming speak loudly: "Zijing, I heard that you are here to deal with the Sun family's family affairs, right?" So now that the family affairs have been dealt with, please retreat. lest this ugly house be publicized, but let the thief see the joke. ”
Hearing this, Lu Su's face couldn't help but become gloomy, he looked at Zhuge Kongming who was in a wheelchair, pondered for a long time, gritted his teeth, and was about to speak.
But then, he saw the figure on a white horse and holding a silver spear appear, and he swallowed back what he had wanted to justify.
He knew that he was afraid that he was going to fall short.
He had heard Zhou Yu say before that Zhuge Kongming's strength was exhausted after using the [Bagua Divine Calculation], and he felt that he had a chance to take advantage of it, as long as he and Cheng Pu, Han Dang, and Zhou Tai went out together, even Zhuge Kongming could take it together.
However, Zhao Yun's appearance completely dispelled his idea.
Zhuge Kongming's [Bagua Divine Calculation] was already called a 10,000-strong enemy, coupled with Zhao Yun, a 10,000-strong enemy who was not inferior to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Lu Su thought about it for a while, and he understood that he had no chance of winning.
After some thought, Lu Su sighed in his heart and made a decision.
He bowed to Zhuge Liang and tried to make a final struggle: "Thank you Mr. Kong Ming for reminding me, it's just that our family affairs have not been done yet!" Please also let me pick up my young lady and those Xiaoji maids, so that I can go back to Jiangdong to resume my life. ”
Then, he heard Zhuge Liang's reply: "Zijing, I don't think it's necessary." Since your young lady is married to my father-in-law. Then her family soldiers are naturally my lord's family soldiers. If the lord wants to return to Jiangxia, then they will naturally return to Jiangxia together. ”
Hearing this, Lu Su immediately discovered the loophole in Zhuge Kongming's words, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Kong Ming's words are wrong, my young lady is not officially married to Xuande Gong. If Xuande Gong is really devoted to my young lady, he still needs to come to my Jiangdong Ming Media to marry. ”
However, just as Lu Su's words fell, he saw Li Gui pushing Zhuge Kongming's wheelchair through a mirror, and the two instantly came to the middle of Lu Su and Liu Bei, only about a hundred meters away from Lu Su.
Seeing Zhuge Kongming suddenly appear in front of him, Lu Su couldn't help but feel nervous in his heart, and then he heard Zhuge Liang scold: "Zijing! You're still a reader! Talking nonsense here! Your Sun family didn't treat my lord with courtesy, and you still expect my lord to go to your Sun family to marry and repay him with courtesy?
Since your young lady is devoted to my father-in-law, and she is willing to give up the red tape, why should you stop it! Zijing, please retreat as soon as possible, lest I look down on you! ”
When Lu Su heard this, his face suddenly turned red, and he was hesitant for a long time, but he couldn't hold back half a word.
In desperation, he had to turn around and let the soldiers retreat.
However, before he could make a move, Zhuge Liang spoke again.
"Zijing, wait a minute, did you forget something?"
As Zhuge Liang's words landed, suddenly, tens of thousands of elite soldiers appeared behind Lu Sujun, armed with spears, and surrounded them.
Immediately afterwards, Zhuge Liang added: "You detained the hundred guards of my lord, do you remember?" I know you've escorted them back to the camp. But it doesn't matter, the 3,000 soldiers you have here will stay with me first, and when you send those 100 guards back to Jiangxia, I will let them go." ”
Hearing this, Lu Su's body couldn't help but stiffen, and after a long time, he sighed, whispered a few words to Cheng Pu, Han Dang, and Zhou Tai, and left in a gloomy manner.
And at the moment when Lu Su and the others passed through Zhuge Liang's 10,000-strong army, the soldiers shouted in unison:
"Brother Zijing, wait for me to send a word to Gongjin!"
"Zhou Lang's clever plan to settle the world, accompanied his wife and broke the army!"
"Hahahaha!"
