Beifu, because the mansion is built in the wilderness, it can occupy a huge area, in the mansion surrounded by the courtyard wall, there are several hidden courtyards far away from other places, usually even Ah Wu Ah Qi These top maids can not be approached, only Ah Jiu, the housekeeper, has the key there, Diao Chan and a few other people can come here.

But today, an outsider is standing at the entrance of a courtyard.

Lu Xun stood outside the small courtyard and bowed, and said, "Mastermother." ”

There was a crisp female voice in the courtyard, it was Da Qiao who was talking, she was wearing plain clothes, not like the whole body of Aya Luo when she was in Jiangdong, nor like the helmet and armor when she was in Chibi, but she had a simple beauty.

She was leaning against a large leafless tree in the courtyard, her eyes sad.

"You and I are both captives, where is the master mother here?"

Lu Xun was ashamed in his heart, he turned his head to Cao Wu, and he really had no position to call the housewife anymore.

He ...... Are you going to do something? ”

Lu Xun was silent for a while, then nodded: "Yes, the lord is going to close the net on Sima in Hanoi." ”

In the past few days, Cao Wu has stopped letting him wear shackles, and Lu Xun has regained his free body. With the revelation of Cao's inability, when Cao Wugong was called, Lu Xun was no longer astringent.

This voice made Da Qiao's eyes darken again, and she smiled miserably: "Go, the big family, you can't just stare at one place." Future...... In the future, when Wu County falls, with you, there will be the Jiangdong Lu family. ”

Lu Xun bowed his head, bowed again, and said goodbye.

Sun Ce killed half of the Lu family, he should have hated Sun Ce's wife so much, but time has changed, he took refuge in Sun Quan, and was exiled to Beifu, and now he can't tell what kind of mood he feels.

When he turned around, he was still a little ashamed of Sun Quan, but when he walked out of the gate of Beifu, he had regained his firmness.

That day, when Cao Wu said the word "counterattack", Lu Xun and Zhuge Liang thought of their own plans.

Cao Wurao listened to the two with interest, Lu Xun thought that he would choose one of them, or neither, and make his own move.

After the Deng Ai incident, he also had a new understanding of Cao Wu's strategy, Cao Wu every time he said that he was troublesome and lazy, but every time he shot, he could solve the problem, and he admired the fourteen filial piety.

As a result, Cao Wu's answer was.

"Children make choices, adults, all of them. I want both of you's plans. Tell me who you need to carry out your plan and who and what forces you need to cooperate. ”

Cao Wu said these words with a smile, and Zhuge Liang and Lu Xun glanced at each other.

Both of them are geniuses, and they are both people who will not admit defeat easily, and at that moment, there seemed to be a spark in their eyes.

For Lu Xun and Zhuge Liang, this is the first plan in the real sense of entering Beifu.

The first plan is to compete with each other.

On the way to Xuchang on horseback, Lu Xun laughed.

He knew that Cao Wu was excited, but he was obviously in Cao Wu's calculations, but he didn't feel offended, and being able to compare with a talent like Zhuge Liang aroused his competitive spirit. Presumably, General Beifu also made such an arrangement because of the personalities of the two.

Then he will have to act separately from Zhuge Liang and compare with the previous one to see who does it better.

……

In Beifuzhong, not far from Da Qiao's courtyard, Cao Wu and Diao Chan stood side by side.

Cao Wu sneezed and rubbed his nose.

"It's almost February, isn't the spring breeze like scissors?"

Cao Wu looked at the bare tree and sighed.

Diao Chan said: "Lu Boyan has left the house, it seems that he is quite interested in this competition, the two dragons are fighting, this hand is balanced, Cao Lang has done a good job." ”

Cao Wu smiled and said: "What kind of system, how can I have that idle time." They're all talents, and I just let them do what they're good at. ”

Hanoi Sima does have strength, but compared to the current Cao family, it is nothing at all, Cao Wu made a move, what is missing is just a name, so let the two geniuses get this name. Even if it doesn't work, he's not afraid of not finding a reason.

Diao Chan thought for a while, and then said: "Then this big Qiao ......"

"Ah, this tree is bare, cut it down, and the other side is ......"

……

When he arrived in Xudu, Lu Xun first connected with the servants of Beifu, and then let them disperse to restaurants and tea shops all over the city.

Beifu has been in war for more than ten years, and the people everywhere are barren, but in the capital Xudu, those who can eat in restaurants and tea shops are not ordinary people, in fact, even before the war, the people can't eat anything good.

Those who can come here are all families with different surnames.

In this era, almost every county and county, there are some wealthy families, some of whom are perennial officials, because scholars wear hats, they are called crown families.

In recent years, there have been fewer and fewer opposition forces in the north, and with the killing of Eryuan by Gongsun Kang, the Taishou of Liaodong, Cao Cao has formally unified the north, after all, Gongsun Kang and Ma Teng have once again declared themselves ministers to the imperial court.

In this case, the big families sent more children to the capital, or to seek official positions, or to run industries, or to promote fame.

Recently, the news of the war in the south has gradually been gathered, and the discussion of the war in the restaurant has become a gathering place for the children of the Xudu family.

Lu Xun sat on the second floor of a restaurant of a high grade, listened to the discussions at the tables next to him, and talked about the Battle of Chibi, as if he had experienced it himself.

Someone said: "If you say that in this battle of Chibi, millions of people went south, but they failed to eliminate Liu Xuande and Zhou Gongjin, they were already defeated, but Jiangdong lost troops and lost generals, and Xiakou soldiers were bloodless, and it seemed to be a victory, which is really difficult to evaluate." ”

Someone said: "I heard that the first thing Zhao Boran, the new assassin of Jingzhou, did when he took office, was to unite with General Zhang and chase and kill Liu Xuande along the path of Liu Xuande's south!" ”

"Which General Zhang is it?"

"Both generals are gone! Pingdi General Zhang He, Dangkou General Zhang Liao, both of them went to chase and kill Liu Bei! ”

"If you don't believe it, why use a knife to chase a lost dog?"

"Don't believe me?"

The man who spoke said in a lengthened tone: "I am a person from the river, General Pingdi Zhang, my countryman, I don't know his movements!" ”

"Yes, yes. It's a pity that the 100-day ban is not over yet, and I can't drink with you. ”

Such words, true or false, Lu Xun listened to it for a long time, and he didn't summarize any news that he didn't know.

Some people's news sounded like it was true, and when it was time to report the source, they realized that it was a guess.

Some news is unreliable when you hear it, for example, it is said that Cao Wu, the general of Beifu, is a reckless man who can wrestle with Xu Chu, so he made the move of hitting the river embankment.

Some people say that Zhou Gongjin is a green-faced and fanged evil ghost, otherwise how could he flood Jiangxia.

There are also people who are sneaky, looking left and right before telling the secrets they know, Cao Cao is in a hurry to destroy Jiangdong in order to capture Er Qiao, as for the source, it is naturally a relative who can't be beaten by the eight poles to be a small servant by Cao Cao's side.

Lu Xun frowned when he heard this, realizing that Zhou Yu's flooding of Jiangxia was a very immoral act for people outside Jiangdong, and it was spurned by people all over the world.

But he also understands that after digging up the Yangtze River, if there is no Cao Wu and Zhuge Liang to turn the tide, Zhou Yu has already destroyed half of Cao Cao's army, and the Cao army will be finished.

But that's the kind of problem that these restaurant talkers don't think about, they only focus on what they know, and they don't pay attention to the whole picture.

Lu Xun took a sip of tea, and when the atmosphere was almost over, he glanced at the Beifu slave who was sitting opposite him.

The slave was also clever, and immediately said: "Even if the water floods Jiangxia, when the water recedes, continue to conquer, and the army has arrived, why do you return to the north?" The grain road is not good, it is a big deal to transfer the battlefield back to Gangneung to transport grain! ”

Lu Xun snorted: "Brother Li, you don't know this, the prime minister returned to the north, but it was not because of those people in Jiangdong. ”

The slave duly said, "Oh? Brother Zhang, I would like to hear about it. ”

Someone next to him: "But because of the Southern Huns? ”

Lu Xun laughed: "How can the Southern Huns be afraid, the prime minister can withdraw alone!" ”

With his big nonsense, everyone in the restaurant looked at him, as if they were thinking, if the Southern Huns were nothing, what reason could he say.

The man said strangely: "In this case, why should the prime minister bother? ”

Lu Xun said: "I know a person, it is a person from the Cao family of Peiguo County, who has been liked by the prime minister since he was a child, so he became a small official under the account, and he once told me a shocking secret!" ”

"What's the secret?"

Many people spoke in unison.

"That's it...... Hey, I can't say, I can't say it. ”

Lu Xun opened his head, but stopped talking.

He waved his palms, but he sneered in his heart.

He had already reviewed the Battle of Chibi countless times in his heart, and he knew better than everyone present that the Jiangdong Army had lost, but it was actually lost to Cao Wuren.

Whether it is to deceive Sun Quan, divert the tiger from the mountain, let the main force of Jiangdong go to Hefei, or pretend to be Cao Cao before the battle to stabilize the morale of the army, not to mention turning the tide in the end.

The governor's strategy is seamless, but unfortunately there is no Cao in the world.

And all of this started with Cao Wujin Chaisang.

Cao Wu's useless nursery rhyme broke the fragile trust relationship between Jiangdong's monarchs and ministers, and also deceived Jiangdong's ministers.

From Cao Wu, Lu Xun learned one thing, that is, using the public opinion of the masses, making up a nursery rhyme may not deceive Sun Quan, but if the time is right, it can defeat Jiangdong.

Therefore, when Cao Wu said that he wanted to fight back, Lu Xun immediately thought of using this kind of trick, and discussed the details with Cao Wu, and came up with the idea of making a fuss in the restaurant and tea shop.

Sure enough, these people were all whetted by him, and kept begging him to continue.

Lu Xun pretended to be embarrassed, and was persuaded for a long time before he smiled bitterly: "Actually, the prime minister withdrew his troops for a simple reason, that is, he slept peacefully in the Chibi camp, but he woke up from a nightmare, so he felt that it was a warning from God, so he returned." ”

"What dream?"

Everyone around asked anxiously.
