Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 82
Chapter 82

Seeing Zhang Jiao's gaze, Lu Bu didn't care. Zhang Jiao's meaning was very clear. He hoped that through the discussion of the generals, he could find a way to defeat Lu Zhi without consuming too much military power.But does this method exist?Lu Bu felt that Lu Zhi's resourcefulness alone was comparable to that of all the Yellow Turban generals sitting here, so as long as the Yellow Turban Army guaranteed not to be counted by Lu Zhi, it would be a good thing. .

"Nephew Lu Xian, you have always been resourceful, wise and courageous, but tell me, how should we deal with this?"

Zhang Liang looked at the generals who were discussing a lot but had no results, then glanced at Zhang Jiao who was sitting in the chief seat, and asked Lu Bu.

"To deal with Lu Zhi, I really don't have any good ideas. Lu Zhi is resourceful, wise and brave, and very good at using troops. If our army confronts him, if we are not careful, we will be transferred into a trap and suffer heavy losses. So although I have nothing It's a good idea, but I also know that the war with Lu Zhi should not be rushed for a while, but must be taken slowly."

Lu Bu was neither humble nor overbearing, he only said that Lu Zhi was not easy to deal with, and he needed to take it easy, but he didn't say whether he could deal with Lu Zhi, which left room for people to imagine.

After listening to Lu Bu's words, Zhang Jiao frowned slightly, but seemed to think of something again, his brows stretched out without leaving a trace on his face.Zhang Jiao already understood that it was not that Lu Bu had no other options, but that some things were hard to say here and could only be discussed in private.

"Well, I see that you can't think of any good solution for a while. Let's stop here for today's military discussion. Everyone go back and think about it. We will continue the discussion tomorrow. It’s not an easy task, and it shouldn’t be rushed.”

Zhang Jiao said leisurely, and ended the military discussion. This time, Zhang Jiao saw once again that the intelligence of the Yellow Turban Army was insufficient.Zhang Jiao had to sigh secretly, the gap between the Yellow Turban and the official army should not be underestimated, dealing with Lu Zhi alone was already so difficult, if Gongsun Zan, Ding Yuan and others were added, the Yellow Turban would surely lose .Zhang Jiao thought of Lu Bu's words again, and felt really hard to calm down.

Lu Bu left the main hall where the discussion was held, but he was in no hurry to leave. What Lu Bu said in the main hall just now had already indicated to Zhang Jiao that he had something to say, and now he was waiting for Zhang Jiao to have someone come to talk to him in detail.

"Master Lu, go slowly, my family's General Tiangong has invited me, and I also invite you to go to the study to talk."

Sure enough, Lu Bu expected it right, and just as Lu Bu was not far away, a yellow scarf guard rushed out and called out to stop Lu Bu.

"Hehe, General Tiangong has an order, so I will obey it naturally, and I ask my brother to lead the way."

Seeing the yellow turban guards running over, Lu Bu smiled lightly, with an expression of success.

When Lu Bu came to the study, Zhang Jiao was already in the study, and there was another person standing beside him, but it was Zhang Liang.

"Nephew Lu Xian is here, come and sit down quickly. Just now in the hall, I saw you hesitated to speak. Is there any way to deal with Lu Zhi? Now that there are no outsiders, my nephew might as well say it clearly."

Seeing Lu Bu coming in, Zhang Liang hurriedly stepped forward to say hello, and at the same time asked out the doubts in his heart on behalf of Zhang Jiao.

"That's right, my nephew is smart and wise. If you think about it, you must have a strategy to defeat the enemy. Let's talk about it."

Seeing Zhang Liang's question, Zhang Jiao also added, obviously interested in Lu Bu's strategy to defeat the enemy.

"Hahaha, the two generals praised me. I really don't have a plan to defeat the enemy. But I do have a plan to let Lu Zhi leave the Guangzong battlefield. I wonder if the two generals would like to listen to it?"

Lu Bu showed a face full of jokes, first he said that he had no way to defeat Lu Zhi, then suddenly changed the subject, and said that he had a way and a way to get Lu Zhi to leave.It can be described as a turn of events, Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang looked worried at first, and then became excited.

You must know that in a battle with a military strategist like Lu Zhi, regardless of victory or defeat, as long as there is a battle, there will definitely be casualties, and the strength of the officers and soldiers and the Yellow Turbans is there. Even if the Yellow Turbans win, they can only win by a narrow margin. Eight thousand, for the Yellow Turban Army, even if it kills eight thousand enemies, it is already a good record to lose ten thousand.In Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang's mind, this kind of loss was simply unavoidable.

However, Lu Bu's words gave Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang another hope. If they can really find a way to dismiss Lu Zhi and replace them with other generals, the situation of the Yellow Turban Army will soon be another world. .

"Hehe, I knew nephew Lu Xian was a great talent, and he must have a way to help our army. If nephew Lu Xian can really let Lu Zhi leave, he must be a great benefactor of our Yellow Turban Army. I dare not refuse."

Hearing that Lu Bu had a way to get Lu Zhi to leave Guangzong, Zhang Liang was very happy, and hurriedly made a promise to Lu Bu, but Zhang Jiao frowned upon hearing Zhang Liang's inadvertent promises, but Zhang Jiao couldn't bear it. All this fell into Lv Bu's eyes, but Lv Bu just smiled lightly, and didn't take Zhang Liang's promise to heart.

"The two generals still remember that when Ling'er and I were in Chenliu, we also arrested a man named Yuan Shude. He is a general in the court today, and he is of the same rank as that Lu Zhi. I drove away Lu Zhi." Zhi Zhi's strategy should be on this person."

Lu Bu chuckled and revealed his plan.

"Then Yuan Shu, even though he is a high-ranking official in the Han court, is now just a prisoner. You don't want to use Yuan Shu to threaten Lu Zhi. You have few chances to deal with that Lu Zhi. Maybe you don't know Lu Zhi well. Then Lu Zhi will not be threatened by you, if you have this idea, I advise you to find another way."

After hearing Lu Bu's words, Zhang Jiao finally couldn't help but speak out, and a look of helplessness appeared on his face.From Zhang Jiao's point of view, Lu Bu was still too young and too inexperienced to see how powerful Lu Zhi was.

"Don't be impatient, big brother. I think nephew Lu Xian must have his intentions for saying this. Nephew Lu Xian is also a calm person, and he wouldn't just want to use this kind of pediatric trick to force Lu Zhi to submit."

Zhang Liang did not show any disdain for Lu Bu, he must have fought a lot with Lu Bu, and knew how powerful Lu Bu was.

"Haha, it's still General Rengong who understands me. This Yuan Shu is just a stepping stone for us to negotiate with Lu Zhi. Now our army's top priority is to collect food and grass, and then we can fight Lu Zhi with all hands and feet. Lu Zhi is only seven Wan Zhibing, if you want to defeat our army of 22, I would like to ask the two generals, what is Lu Zhi thinking now?"

Lu Bu smiled lightly and asked back.

"Presumably Lu Zhi is also trying to figure out a way to transfer troops from various places."

When Zhang Liang heard Lu Bu say it, he blurted out immediately. As soon as he said this, Zhang Liang himself was taken aback, because it showed that neither the Yellow Turbans nor the officers and soldiers were ready for a big war. The difference was that the Yellow Turbans had more people and less food , but the army is understaffed.

"What General Rengong said is not bad. Since the two families have difficulties now and neither has the ability to eat each other, the best way is to delay the time, and Yuan Shu just happened to use Yuan Shu to delay the time. But this is not my plan. It's just the beginning. As long as Lu Zhi wants to delay time, he will definitely negotiate with us on the issue of Yuan Shu. As long as Lu Zhi negotiates with us, we can naturally let people hide from Lu Zhi's military power and drive Lu Zhi out of Guangzong. even put to death in prison.”

Having said this, Lu Bu stopped talking, just looked at Zhang Jiao and Zhang Liang, and smiled.

At this time, Zhang Jiao also pondered a little, and then a smile appeared on his face.

"Nephew Lu Xian is indeed very resourceful. No wonder Zhang Liang and Ling'er praised you for your ability. You can handle this matter at your own discretion. If you need anything, you can directly contact Zhang Liang. I will wait for your good news."

After speaking, Zhang Jiao laughed and left the study.Only Zhang Liang and Lu Bu were left.

"Here, nephew, I still don't understand what you said just now, can you explain it to me?"

Although what Lu Bu just said was vague, Zhang Jiao already understood Lu Bu's intentions, but Zhang Liang on the other side didn't want to understand. Originally, Zhang Liang didn't want to ask because he was concerned about face, but he couldn't help being curious. Now Seeing Zhang Jiao leave, he asked Lu Bu about it.

At that moment Lu Bu whispered a few words into Zhang Liang's ear, and Zhang Liang smiled and nodded.

In fact, Lu Bu's plan is also very simple, that is, to use Lu Zhi and the Yellow Turban Army, who are incapable of eliminating each other's gaps, use Yuan Shu's life to delay time, and talk to Lu Zhi about the conditions for exchanging Yuan Shu. Although Lu Zhi is a tough person, Naturally, such a person would not do anything unfavorable to the big man or the army because of Yuan Shu, but this did not prevent Lu Zhi from exchanging Yuan Shu's life for some small benefits.It must be the fourth generation and third father of the old Yuan family. Although Lu Zhi is proud, he has also received a lot of benefits from the old Yuan family. The leader of the Chinese scholars, Lu Zhi was born as a scholar, so Lu Zhi still had to give Yuan Kui face.So as long as the conditions are not too harsh, Lu Zhi's rescue of Yuan Shu can be said to be a certainty.What's more, Lu Zhi can also use this matter to delay the war with the Yellow Turban Army, allowing Lu Zhi to have time to transfer troops from nearby states and counties.

However, if Lu Zhi did this, he fell into Lu Bu's trap. As long as Lu Bu seized the evidence of Lu Zhi's relationship with the Yellow Turban Army and used the evidence properly, the Han court could have doubts about Lu Zhi and depose him. Lu Zhi's military power, you must know that Emperor Lingling is not someone who employs people without doubt and knows how to use them well.

The power of Lu Bu's trick is that even if Lu Zhi knew there was a conspiracy, he still had to take advantage of it.Such a conspiracy has actually broken away from the category of conspiracy and can be called a conspiracy.Conspiracy is to take advantage of people's unpreparedness to take advantage of people's weaknesses, but conspiracy lies in that even if you know it is a trap, you can't resist it, you can only drill into it.
