Chapter 138 The Fox Riding the Tiger

The sky is green and the fields are vast.

On a vast grassland in the north, hundreds of livestock are lowering their heads, enjoying the incomparably chewing delicious fresh grass.

An old man over sixty was wearing a sheepskin fur, sitting on the grassy slope, holding a dry branch in his hand, humming a little tune unique to the mountains and fields.

The clear river meanders under the feet of the old man, reflecting the pure white clouds in the sky. The long river water, like the waves of silk, curls up among the green fields.

Everything looks so quiet and peaceful.

"Teacher, there will be a big battle in two days. Why do you still have the time to herd cattle and sheep here?"

A young man with thick braids came from a distance and stood beside the old man, frowning tightly.

The old man took off his felt hat, revealing a bony face, having experienced the vicissitudes of the world.

He beckoned the young man to sit down, and said slowly, "Didn't losing a Guangyan City give you enough memory?"

The young man's face immediately became very ugly, turning blue and white.He knew that many generals were secretly laughing at him, laughing at him as a coward who lost the city and fled before the battle was fought.

Hmph, if it wasn't for Chen Fu's betrayal, he would have tricked me.Otherwise, with Lu Bu's strength alone, how could he take Guangyan away from me...

Kaqi grimaced, and anyone could feel the unwillingness in his heart.

"Winners and losers, if you lose, you lose. It's good to give you a long memory." The old man stroked his withered palm on the young man's back, feeling a little disappointed, "I know you lost Guangyan and felt very aggrieved. But people, how can I live a smooth life for a lifetime. These sufferings, eat early, it is not a bad thing. "

"By the way, what's going on with the Han army?" Compared with the immediate enemy, the old man was more inclined to the movement of the Han army hundreds of miles away.

Naturally, Kaqi would not hide from his teacher, and said everything he knew: "Lv Bu captured Huze Pass a few days ago, and beheaded the guard Bu Helu. It seems that he wants to cross the Zhuo River north. Recover Wuyuan."

"In the past, when we marched and fought, no matter whether it was on the grassland or heading south from the Kouguan Pass, we always won every battle. But since we met this guy named Lu Bu, everything seems to be reversed. Could it be that he is really a god sent from the sky? ?” Speaking of this, Kaqi felt inexplicably bored.

"Lu Bu's bravery is indeed rare in the world, but compared to that, I am more worried about that young man called Xi Ce." There was a trace of solemnity in the old man's eyes.

It is reported that from Yunzhong County onwards, all of Lu Bu's actions are based on this plot behind his back.

If this is the case, the future generations are terrifying!
The old man narrowed the corners of his eyes. If Lu Bu was a fierce tiger coming out of the mountain, then this ploy was a fox riding on his neck.

With such a meticulous mind at a young age, if he stays for a few more years, won't he become a monster?
The old man took out a black order from his pocket and handed it to Kaqi, "I discussed with the king last night, and I plan to take back the troops from Linwo and Yiyang to Wuyuan. Zhenggao, with their little manpower, how can they stop Lu Bu, a fierce tiger."

Kaqi looked at the order in his hand, but he didn't know what the old man meant, and said in a grateful tone with incomparable certainty: "This time, I will never disappoint your expectations."

Before Kaqi left, the old man put the felt hat back on his head, drove the cattle and sheep, and asked slowly, "Are there enough people?"

"That's enough, isn't there still [-] young and strong captives in Wuyuan County?" Kaqi slowed down and walked side by side with the old man.

"Aren't you afraid that they will strike back at that time?"

"Their fathers, mothers, wives and children are all in our hands. If anyone turns back, I will let his whole family be buried with him."

There was a little relief in the eyes of the old man, this disciple of his was really ruthless.

But war, there is no benevolence, justice and morality at all.

The old man patted his trouser legs, and his eyes looked far away, "One last thing to tell you, no matter what method I use, I don't want that Han man to be born and live too long."

At the crossing of the Zhuo River.

Six long bridges cross the north and south banks. Under the bridges, the dark brown river water is rushing, roaring like a violent dragon, piercing through the walls and smashing through the walls. .

The terrain near the mouth of the Zhuohe River is not flat, and some places are extremely rugged.

Lu Bu got off his horse long ago, led the red dodder, and crossed the river on foot.

Eight thousand cavalrymen also dismounted and led the horses along.

The [-] soldiers Lu Bu only brought his cavalry to the north. When he stormed Huze Pass a few days ago, almost all the soldiers who attacked the pass were injured.Lu Bu simply left them in the pass to recuperate, and when Zhang Yi's army arrived, they came to join them together.

When crossing the river, Lu Bu carried the trick on his back.

Xi Ce's body is weak, and his feet have been worn out after walking down the mountain road for seven or eight miles, but he has been holding back and not saying anything.

It wasn't until he was crossing the river that Lu Bu realized that Xi Ce was walking with a limp.

Don't look at the fact that the play strategy is not upright on weekdays, in fact, he is also a strong person in his bones.

"General, please let me down quickly, I can walk by myself." Xi Tie thumped on Lu Bu's broad back.

"Your feet are bleeding, can you still walk?"

Lu Bu asked back angrily, folded his arms behind his hands, and firmly fixed the joke behind his back, "At this time, you scholars are really not as good as us reckless people."

"Thousands of soldiers are watching, you are a general, how can you carry me, a humble man like me." Xie Ce insisted.

"Without you, sir, there would be no general like me." Lu Bu smiled, and walked steadily step by step, "Besides, I don't worry about others carrying you."

These words fell into Fang Yue's ears behind him, and he instantly felt ten thousand wild horses running by, and finally slapped his hand heavily on his forehead: You two took the wrong medicine today, right?A problem that can be solved obviously by carrying the plot on the back of the horse, why bother to be obsessed with carrying it on the back and getting off to walk!What about the brain, has the pig gnawed it!

Of course, only Fang Yue himself could hear this rant.

Fortunately, the drama finally didn't stick to it, he changed the subject, said with a smile: "Have you decided on a name for the child yet?"

Whenever this matter is mentioned, Lu Bu is always happy for a long time. As he is about to become a father, he is full of expectations for the child who is about to be born.

He nodded and smiled gently: "I've thought about it a long time ago. The boy's name is Lu Zhuan, and the girl's name is Lingqi."

"Hey, jokes! Don't you scholars like to show off? In the face of such a majestic river, why don't you sing a few poems to listen to?" Cao Xing over there shouted loudly.

Hearing the words, Xie Ce gave a wry smile, and shook his head: "You are asking the wrong person, I have read a few books, and I have a little understanding of yin and yang, three teachings and nine streams, but only in this poem, I am a master of all things." Opened the six orifices."

"What do you mean?" Cao Xing scratched his head and thought for a long time but couldn't come up with an answer. These poor Confucian scholars are full of tricks, going around and going around, not at all free and easy.

"I don't know anything about it!" Many people who knew the allusion answered in unison.

The soldiers crossing the river burst out laughing, their gentleman, apart from being teasing at times, was also extremely funny.
