The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 396 Lu Su
Before Dongfang Sheng started his journey, a very famous figure in the history of Romance came to visit him.

Dongfang Sheng didn't know who it was, but the visitor was a guest, so Dongfang Sheng met him directly in the military tent.

As soon as this person came in, Dongfang Sheng took a closer look at him. He had a broad forehead, a rich face, and a graceful and luxurious demeanor.

"Lu Su in the lower east city, styled Zijing, pays homage to General Dongfang." The visitor said respectfully, cupping his hands.

Lu Su, this guy is a fooled character in the novel, but what about the actual history?

He is the representative of the Huaibei gentry and the person in charge of the Lu family, and he is also the proponent of Dongwu Longzhong. Historically, after his death, Sun Quan personally mourned, and Zhuge Liang mourned. He is definitely not the silly-looking one in the novel of the second pen.

Dongfang Sheng was taken aback, and Lu Su asked with some doubts: "Has the general ever seen me?"

"I have heard for a long time that brother Zijing is very generous. He once generously donated a warehouse of three thousand dendrobium grains to Zhou Lang. How could I not know, but I have never seen brother Zijing in person." Dongfang Sheng said immediately.

What Lu Su said was full of elation, and he also showed a touch of joy at the moment. As the most powerful gentry in Huaibei, he naturally, like Cai Mao and the others, valued fame and power, and what he most wanted to experience was the taste of power.

Dongfang Sheng praised him for his grandeur, Lu Su was naturally happy, and of course this also scored points.

Dongfang Sheng is now a big prince with four or five states in his hands. His words carry weight, and I am afraid that it will not have such an effect if it is another person.

"I don't know what advice Zijing has come here this time?" Dongfang Sheng didn't want to go around with Lu Su, so he asked straight to the point.

Lu Su straightened his face and said: "I heard that the general wants to attack Jiangdong, so I came here to persuade the general to give up this idea."

After hearing Lu Su's words, Dongfang Sheng understood a little bit that this guy came to be a lobbyist, and he must have been entrusted by Zhou Yu.

However, he did not reach out to hit the smiling person, and Lu Su was not aggressive at the beginning, but his attitude was very respectful. Dongfang Sheng didn't express his opinion, but just nodded to signal Lu Su to continue.

Seeing that Dongfang Sheng did not object, Lu Su continued, "General, have you ever heard that the Cao bandits have mobilized troops to attack Yizhou and Youzhou in two directions? If the general attacks Jiangdong now, it will be an opportunity for Cao bandits to take advantage of it."

"Furthermore, if the general captures Jiangdong now, he will face the Cao bandits directly, but it is not a good decision for the general to attack and exhaust the soldiers." Lu Su cited the second example again.

Lu Su glanced at Dongfang Sheng, neither showing displeasure nor agreeing, he just looked at him silently, and immediately complained secretly in his heart.

This young Dongfang Sheng is not particularly big, but the city is quite deep. Lu Su complained in his heart, and then he said: "And the general should know that this Jiangdong is not a place to be humiliated at will. Once forced too quickly, we You can also unite with the Cao bandits, or you can die together."

After saying these words, Lu Su raised his head and glanced at Dongfang Sheng, still looking neither happy nor sad, and immediately he could only sigh in his heart that he had met his opponent.

"Brother Zijing actually knows in his heart that if he really wants to take refuge in someone, Sun Quan will definitely not take refuge in Cao Gong." Dongfang Sheng looked directly at Lu Su and said, "He will join forces with Cao Gong but dare not take refuge in Cao Gong."

"What you said is burning jade and stone, I can only say that you overestimate the strength of the Sun family." Dongfang Sheng continued with a smile, "In the battle of Jingzhou, Zhou Yu lost all 5 horses, and Jiangdong must be seriously injured. At this time When will we wait if we don’t make a move? What does Brother Zijing think?”

Lu Su sighed and said, "I thought so too, but it's just that Gongjin and the others..."

Lu Su didn't speak completely, but Dongfang Sheng also understood that Zhou Yu's whole heart was towards the Sun family, and it was impossible to have two hearts, but Lu Su was different. Firstly, the situation in Jiangdong is not good, and secondly, he has not been accepted Pulled into Sun Quan's camp, it's just that he has a better relationship with Zhou Yu.

Figured this out, Dongfang Sheng started to recruit, and said with a sunny smile: "Brother Zijing, have you ever heard of the phrase 'good birds choose trees to live in, and virtuous ministers choose their masters to serve'?" talk?"

Lu Su was shocked, and said hesitantly: "Gong Jin and I are close friends, I'm afraid this is not good?"

The Sun Clan in Jiangdong is uncertain, and Dongfang Sheng has become the second largest prince in the Han Dynasty. If he and Cao Cao are the only ones who will compete for the world in the future, it would be a lie to say that he is not tempted. Lu Su is more concerned about his own reputation. I was afraid that if I took refuge in Dongfang Sheng, my reputation would be ruined.

"Zijing can walk around with me in the barracks. You can go back and think about it carefully, but my army will enter Jiangdong in a few days. Brother Zijing must seize the opportunity." Dongfang Sheng walked to Lu Su's side He patted him on the shoulder and said softly, "Jingzhou's Kuai Yue and Cai Hao are now working together as Jingzhou's Biejia. They are the ones who have seen the situation clearly before."

After Dongfang Sheng finished speaking, he walked out of the military tent with Lu Su in a daze. The army outside was training, lined up neatly, and the air of killing and attack rushed towards his face.

"One, two, three, four...one, two, three, four."

The soldiers shouted their slogans very loudly, and the voice roaring from the chest went straight to the sky, which shocked Lu Su who was a little confused.

After that, Dongfang Sheng didn't say much about recruiting Lu Su, but just took him to the barracks to watch the army training, and of course the daily training of heavy armored soldiers.

Lu Su was completely overwhelmed when he saw those heavy armored soldiers like human tanks. He kept asking himself, can Jiangdong still resist such an invincible army?

Until Dongfang Sheng sent Lu Su out of the barracks, the army's slogans and the sound of metal friction after the heavy armor soldiers put on the heavy armor were still echoing in his mind.

Lu Su is more pragmatic. Dongfang Sheng took him to see his "muscles", that is, the army and heavy armor soldiers. He has completely conquered Lu Su. He believes in strength and wants to make a difference, so Lu Su is going back On the way, he had already decided to join Dongfang Sheng.

Dongfang Sheng didn't know whether Lu Su would take refuge in him because of his words, but the pace of attacking Jiangdong would not stop because of this.

Tuobahan and Simabao were the forwards. Wang Hu and Badao followed Dongfang Sheng and led the army to advance behind. Taishici couldn't come because he wanted to guard Jingzhou. Zhang Liao rushed over, and Zhang He was temporarily in charge of guarding Liangzhou.

It is a bad way to guard a state with generals, but Dongfang Sheng has no good way now, because Liangzhou and Jingzhou are new states, and there are still many unstable factors in the state. If there is no strong force The support may be difficult to maintain stability. Of course, once it enters the regular system, Dongfang Sheng will withdraw the generals and replace them with new civil servants.
