Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 214 Jiangdong Yingjie?

"Twenty miles back to the village, the whole army rests overnight before attacking." In the current state to attack the mountain by force, even if it can win, it will be a miserable victory, so Lu Meng made a decisive decision.

"General Lu, why don't we go north and bypass this hill to attack Mount Bu?" Pan Zhang couldn't help asking.

Now that there is no direct confrontation, generals like Pan Zhang have lingering fears. Lai Gong really likes to play tricks, and it feels like ordinary generals can't do it.

Lu Meng shook his head hastily, "Wen Gui is in charge of the termination, I have my own calculations."

"Wei." Pan Zhang took the order and left.

To make Lai Gong surrender completely is to annihilate his vital strength. If he bypasses the camp on the hill ahead, judging from what happened in the past two days, maybe Lai Gong will send troops to intercept him.

Even if they pass through the stronghold in front, without the assistance of warships, it is impossible to cross the Yushui and Tanshui, let alone capture Bushan County in the rear.

Lu Meng can still find ways to overcome the above two reasons. The most important thing is that the food roads at both ends of the water and land are cut off. The 2 people have a huge risk of annihilating the entire army, so he would rather retreat and organize an attack than take risks. Detour to the north.

Like Pan Zhang's retreat last time, Lu Meng's retreat this time did not encounter pursuit.

Lan Tian, ​​Lai Gong and others stood in front of the stronghold and looked out. Gao Shun sighed and said, "If you attack him while he is exhausted, you will surely gain something."

"I guess General Ziyu has a clever plan." Lai Gong said with a smile.

Lan Tian's dispatch these days made Lai Gong's scalp tingle. He guessed that if he faced Jiangdong's army alone, he might have lost several battles, and now he might have been defending the city at Bushan.

Lan Tian shook his head, "After all, Lu Meng's troops are twice as strong as ours. If they fight hard, we will be passive instead. It is better to rely on our geographical advantages to defend."

"If the entrapment army is here, let alone Lu Meng twice as much as us, even three times us." Gao Shun's face was serious.

"General Ziyu is afraid of being honest, otherwise how could he keep Boping's entrapment army in Lingling, but the victory with the barbarian soldiers of Chief Sha will further highlight General Ziyu's ability to use troops." Lai Gong complimented.

Lan Tian nodded: "Conspiracies are always inferior to Yang schemes, and they don't play a big role in the war. As long as you use your troops carefully, it will be extremely difficult to achieve results. After Lu Meng rests, he will definitely lead his troops back. It will all depend on the efforts of the generals."

"Leave it to me, sir." Gao Shun said confidently.

Lan Tian was affirmative at first, and then asked, "Where did Chief Sha go?"

Lai Gong said with a smile: "Last night, General Gan led a team to harass the enemy camp. Chief Sha insisted on following him to learn how to fight, so he is still in the camp."

Gao Shun couldn't help but nodded and said: "Chief Sha is humble and willing to learn, sir can entrust him with important tasks in the future."

Lan Tian nodded and said, "Whether there are many barbarians or Yue people in Lingnan or Jingzhou, it is necessary to cultivate a group of enlightened foreign officials, which is very beneficial to the stability and governance of the region."

"The general knows people well and uses them well. Whether it is governing the country or governing the army, it is no wonder that the lord entrusts you with a heavy responsibility." Lai Gong is incapable but especially good at talking, so Liu Biao did not give the position of governor of Jiaozhou to others, but fell to it. on him.

The so-called reaching out and not hitting people with smiling faces, Lan Tian knew it well in the face of this kind of flattery, and only responded with a slight smile.

At night, Lu Meng made careful arrangements. Horses, antlers, traps, and sentry towers were neatly arranged, as if it were a defensive camp.

Lu Meng arranged several teams of soldiers to patrol the camp, and the [-] Jiangdong soldiers finally had a safe meal and a peaceful sleep.

In the early morning of the next day, Jiangdong's soldiers and horses marched westward in order. When they reached the foot of the hill, they saw that the opponent was already standing on the hillside.

Lu Meng saw all the arms on the hillside lined up according to the flags, and from this he could see the high level of the opponent's army. This kind of army management ability is definitely beyond the grasp of a foreign barbarian. He guessed that Lai Gong had a super powerful military capability.

The beacon tower on the top of the mountain on the other side has been lit again, which is like a high light, so that Jiangdong people have nowhere to hide.

Lu Meng raised his whip and urged his horse to go to the front of the formation, and shouted to Banpo: "Is General Lai here? Do you dare to come out and answer?"

The loud voice echoed between the two armies, and when they were young, the two rode out from the gap in the army formation.

Lu Meng, who was riding down on a white horse with Lai Gong, gave a contemptuous smile, he reined in the rein and said coldly, "Where are you from?"

Lu Meng saw that this man was elegant and dignified, so he raised his hands and clasped his fists in salute: "I am Lu Meng, a general under the command of General Chariot and Cavalry. Recently, I have watched Lord Laifu use his troops. He has the demeanor of a famous general in ancient times. Meng sincerely admires him."

"Since you know I can, why do you dare to send troops to invade the country?" Lai Gong asked coldly.

Although Lu Meng was choked, he still had a lot of courage. He responded with a smile, "I heard that Cangwu Wu Ju had a rift with the Fujun, and my lord sent Buzishan to Jiaozhou to mediate. Unexpectedly, brother Zishan was murdered by a traitor. Meng was ordered to go south this time to find out the truth."

"It's rumored that Bu Zhi died of illness after taking Shi Xie's pills. Why don't you go to Longbian to find out the truth, but first trap and kill Wu Ju, and then drive the soldiers to invade our territory?" Lai Gong sneered.

"It is rumored that the pill came from Lingfang County, Yulin County. It is not reasonable for Mr. Laifu to send troops to intercept my warship." Lu Meng argued vigorously.

Lai Gong laughed: "General Lu thought I was a three-year-old child? If I let the Jiangdong warship go west, I might end up with the same fate as Wu Ju, right? Sun Quan clearly wanted to occupy Jiaozhou by force, but he wanted to find a reason for such a joke. "

"Mr. Lai's Mansion is really worrying too much. My lord's meddling in the Jiaozhou dispute is also to share the emperor's worries. Why do you need to speculate for no reason?" Lu Meng continued to quibble.

"Unreasonable speculation? I heard that Sun Zhongmou is good at using poison, and the governor Zhou Yu died for no reason. Maybe Bu Zhi died from the same cause. General Lu is not afraid of becoming the next one?"

Lai Gong was quick-spoken, and when faced with Lu Meng's confusing words, he directly resorted to more ferocious guesses.

Lu Meng couldn't bear it anymore when he heard this, and bared his fangs one by one: "The Cao thief obeyed the emperor to order him not to be a minister, and now he has defeated Yuan Shao to unify the north. If it weren't for me, the heroes from Jiangdong defeated Cao Jun in Wulin, the Han family would have already been established. After the Cao family's world is over, can Lord Lai's family still securely separate Jiaozhou?"

"Unfortunately, Zhou Gongjin was poisoned to death."

"Although the governor of Zhou died, Lu Zijing is still there. Who else in the world can defeat the Cao thief, except me in Jiangdong? My lord has the ambition to restore the mountains and rivers and help the Han Dynasty. Still not losing the official position and noble salary of the state and county"

Originally, this kind of treatment was only given to the scholar family, but facing a "violent man" like Lai Gong, Lu Meng had to increase his chips in the face of ridicule.

Lai Gong laughed wildly after hearing this: "Hahaha, Sun Zhongmou still has such ambitions?"

"I sincerely point out the wrong way for you, but you have despised me Jiangdong heroes many times. Are you really not afraid of the tigers and wolves behind me?" Lu Meng's eyes widened angrily.

"Jiangdong Yingjie? A man of tigers and wolves? A duck that fell into the water?"
