Three Kingdoms: Cao Ying's mastermind, from nine to five

Chapter 158 "My Master County Marquis"

Lu Bu's soldiers and horses came out from the southern city of Guangling.

Taking the southwest marching route from Guangling, they met Zhao Yun and Xu Chu's joint attack halfway.

After the ambush, chase for dozens of miles.

Waiting for work with leisure, waiting for Lu Bu's soldiers to attack, so his army was defeated.

Because there was no Lu Bu stationed there, there were hardly many defenders in Guangling, and the few thousand people were just stragglers.

So it was also captured by Cao Ren's army, and the cities of Guangling were taken within a day.

As a result, Lu Bu left the funeral again, and could only flee with more than [-] elite cavalry under his command, and the soldiers and horses trapped in the camp.

To the north of Shouchun, walk along the river.

But I don't know if I can really go to the land of Jingzhou.

Although the anti-Cao banner was raised, it had the opposite effect.

In this way, Liu Biao and Lu Buhui are indeed on the same line.

But he would not deliberately send troops to rescue Lu Bu.

His whereabouts were soon discovered by Xu Zhen and Dian Wei.

At the same time, Chen Gong was well aware of Xu Zhen's marching habits, so he also sent scouts to go for an extra [-] miles, and also knew where the soldiers and horses were.

A secret plan is also in progress.

Xu Zhen's barracks outside Linshui.

Backed by mountains, it is built by the river.

About a hundred miles away, Xu Zhen asked Dianwei to set up the camp here.

He sent soldiers and horses to continuously explore the road. There was only one extremely difficult and dangerous road behind the mountain, and it was not easy for soldiers and horses to pass through. Therefore, he was very relieved and no longer took too many precautions.

"Now that I know the route he is fleeing from, I am going to ambush him and kill him."

Dian Wei stood in front of Xu Zhen, looking radiant.

The main part of his command is now extremely excited, and the merits of this battle must be great. The soldiers and horses of Lu Bu's main part are all elite divisions. Both the armament and the horses are excellent. According to the temperament of the princes in the past, they still will Turn it in.

That's all I can get from my headquarters!
Under Dian Wei's command, more than 4000 people are directly under his command, and now all of them are very rich. In the future, when recruits enter the camp, we can give them the existing armaments and go to get the armaments of Lu Bu's personal guards. Wouldn't it be stronger? !
Who doesn't like the feeling that the power under his command is gradually growing, the more soldiers and horses, the easier it will be to gain merit in the future.

This is like a snowball, and it will be out of control in the future.

Just like the sentence that the princes often hang on their lips, there are endless children and grandchildren!

"Go."

Xu Zhen didn't hesitate at all this time, his face was as usual, very serious, and even the corners of his mouth curled up in a hint of encouragement, "Go and get merit, I'll wait for you to come back in the barracks."

"This time I went straight to Lv Bu's bodyguard. If I kill Lv Bu, I will gain fame. If not, I will tie Chen Gongtai back and go to Xudu to get merit. I am afraid that the prime minister has missed him for many years."

"Hey!"

Dian Wei smiled, "Of course, I have long wanted to take his red rabbit as my mount!"

Xu Zhen patted him on the shoulder, "Don't chop Chitu with a knife, just be his mount yourself."

Dian Wei was invincible on land, and Lu Bu was invincible immediately.

Lu Bu rides Dianwei, isn't he invincible in the world!
"Bah! The big battle is coming soon, and the lord will say such despondent words!" Dian Wei gave him a blank look, and then went out immediately.

Qi Yu was shocked by the side, touched his few heads, and approached Dian Wei with a look of reverence, "As expected of you, General, you dare to talk to Junhou like that!"

"That's right! Don't even look at our relationship!"

Xu Zhen watched him leave with a smile on his back.

A quarter of an hour later, Dian Wei rode his horse and led his army up, raised the dust and left, and rushed to a trail twenty miles away, preparing to ambush Lu Bu.

……

At this time, Lu Bu was on the way, reining in his horse and walking slowly, listening to the intelligence news from the sentry in front.

Chen Gong was also speaking in a low voice at the side, urging him: "Your Honor, Xu Bowen's camp is twenty miles away. This is what he got from the scouting post last night. At that time, his sentry cavalry had not yet been dispatched. , so it must be known in advance.”

"On this road, there is only one difficult trail, which can bypass the mountain and raid its camp."

"I predict that Dian Wei will definitely attack with a large army and intercept him on the road."

"If you use a dead soldier to go around the mountain road to attack Xu Zhen at this time, you can attack suddenly in the middle of the night. If you can make meritorious deeds, you can kill Xu Zhen!"

Lu Bu's face brightened immediately, his eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and applauded: "The military master has a good strategy! Xu Zhen is not unusual in using troops, he follows the style of peace and stability, and follows the rules. Compared with Cao Cao, the use of troops in this way is not an inch worse."

"Therefore, I have my own camp to cross the mountains."

"Gao Shun!"

"The end is here!"

Gao Shun was beside him, with a ferocious look on his face, he immediately cupped his fists.

He had hurt Zhang Liao by admonishing Lu Bu last time, and he always felt sorry for it, and he wanted to find a chance to make up for it.

Now there is another opportunity to make meritorious deeds, of course you can't miss it.

"If we kill Xu Bowen, we can truly escape."

"When you arrive in Jingzhou, all the kings will survive!"

Lu Bu's face was serious.

I would like to remind you that the only way now is to go to Jingzhou to survive.

He had already shouted that Cao's bandits were against the Han, and he was ordered to beg for bandits, so it was impossible to ease with Xu Zhen, and it was impossible to surrender to Cao Cao.

I am afraid that Cao's soldiers and horses will definitely kill him now.

Who would have imagined that such a dignified man would fall into such a field today.

However, he has never failed to fall into the camp, and now hundreds of people are all mobilized, and it is not a problem to kill Xu Zhen.

Thinking of this, Lu Bu thought about it carefully, and immediately said, "No! I'll go with Gao Shun!"

Chen Gong stopped Lu Bu immediately, and said, "Feng Xian has already thought about it."

If you go, what should I do? !

This was the first reaction in Chen Gong's heart, he led the rest of the soldiers and horses and could not defeat Dian Wei.

Lu Bu sneered, "Hehe, since I know the way, they must also know where I am."

"Naturally, a large army is used to ambush. You can also set up an ambush near Gongtai, so that Dian Wei can't find it. When I walk around the back mountain, I can see it at a glance."

"General! When we came back, we went to see that road, which can be used by a small number of horses, but if you want to go as an army, you need to hold the horses and move forward slowly. The road is too rough, and it is extremely difficult for cavalry to pass."

"Well! My red rabbit horse crosses mountains and ridges like walking on flat ground, so why should I be afraid? It seems that this place is a gift from God to me, Lu Bu!"

Hearing the words of the scouts, Lu Bu felt more relieved, although now he was defeated and fled, and the soldiers and horses were scattered.

At that time, all the tiger and wolf cavalry were captured and killed, or fled and hid in the mountains, but there are still thousands of soldiers and horses.

More than [-] loyal followers, how could it not be luck.

This is an opportunity given by God, and we must seize it.

What he was thinking at this time was that if Xu Bowen's head was taken to Jingzhou, maybe it would be more valued.

The opportunity to make a comeback lies in this battle!
……

night.

Xu Zhen and Zhuge Liang are reading.

A brief moment of peace.

At this time, there was no Cao Ang by his side, and no Xiahou En standing around.

There was no bickering between Dian Wei and Xu Chu.

Nor did Jia Xu suddenly make a shocking remark.

The two of them almost felt the tranquility in their hearts.

[You have learned a lot from studying for two hours, self-discipline value +200]

【Knowledge +1】

【Learning: 92】

"I really know a lot."

Zhuge Liang: "..."

As soon as Xu Zhen opened his mouth, his thoughts were cut off.

Originally, I was thinking about some grain transportation issues discussed with my uncle back then, how to build a device that can automatically transport grain and grass.

Thinking of this, he blurted out immediately and asked Xu Zhen a question.

Xu Zhen was stunned and said, "Are you studying wooden cows and horses?"

"What cattle and horses?" Zhuge Liang seemed to have been mentioned, the name...

Always feel familiar!

"Master, what are you talking about?"

"It's a kind of wooden mechanism that can automatically move slowly when you tap it. It should use the axle structure I mentioned to you before, but it's relatively simple. You just need to think about it for a while."

I'm busy.

"Really?! Why does Junhou always trust students so much?" Zhuge Liang raised his head suspiciously. Every time he talked about these exquisite and ingenious inventions, Zhuge Liang felt very curious, because according to Xu Zhen's tone, he would Yes know.

Then don't say it, always let yourself think.

And he said with certainty that he could figure it out after thinking about it for a few months.

Smart after all.

Of course I know that I am smart, but why is he more confident in me than myself?
Confusing.

"In fact, it's not just that. If Pufeng and the others can make a more delicate hinge, they can use gears to combine hinge bearings to make a bicycle."

"what?"

Zhuge Liang was stunned, and immediately fell into a deeper confusion.

Then he murmured: "The thought of a king is not something in this world, are you really a person in this world?"

At this moment, Zhuge Liang always felt that Xu Zhen came from the sky.

Or maybe he has strayed into some fairyland and seen scenes that have never been seen in this world, otherwise how could he have so many wonderful ideas.

And the cognition is far beyond ordinary people, even the wise men in this world, such as Jia Xu and other wily foxes, are often defeated by him.

And the witty remarks are continuous, often surprising, and people don't know how to answer what they say.

Xu Zhen immediately raised his head, "If you say that again, I will run away on horseback."

"Of course I am a contemporary person, but I read a lot of books. If you read books for a few more years, you will still be able to think as much. Anyway, you are smart and don't be afraid."

"Let me tell you this, when I was studying, I also opened and closed the door to those seniors in the land surrounded by fairy mountains and fog for ten years, and then I was taught carefully by them."

"Really?"

Zhuge Liang was even more suspicious.

Are you trying to trick me into opening and closing the door for you?
"Of course, let me tell you a story."

In order to encourage Liangzi, Xu Zhen decided to tell another story that has been hidden in her heart for many years as an encouragement.

"Okay, read more, learn more and think more, mainly thinking." Xu Zhen encouraged a few words casually.

"Okay, master, please tell me!"

Zhuge Liang immediately put down the book in his hand, sat upright, put away all expressions on his face, and listened attentively.

Dare not have the slightest neglect to play.

Xu Zhen didn't teach many times in person, and almost always taught by example.

Lead by example, let Zhuge Liang follow the example of reading, and Jia Xu does all these things when discussing Taoism, solving doubts and answering questions.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang cherishes every opportunity for Xu Zhen to spread his word.

"In ancient times, there was a man named Zhongyong, who was able to write chapters and poems at the age of four or five, and all the people in the village admired his poems and articles. God."

Xu Zhen spoke slowly, drawing Zhuge Liang in as soon as he opened his mouth.

After all, Zhuge Liang himself only showed his talent when he was nine years old. He started to think ingeniously and learn quickly. The person in this story can do it at the age of four or five.

At the same time, he also thought that Xu Zhen was bragging. After all, he had never heard of such a person in ancient times, so he was curious to what extent he would brag in the end.

"At that time, people in the village thought that the child came from some kind of fairyland, or that there was a fairy touching his head, and his father was very proud. He took Zhongyong to find teachers and friends everywhere, but it was not for learning, but for learning. Show off your abilities."

"Every time I compose a poem in front of my friends, I will be greeted with applause, and my father will leave with satisfaction."

"In this way, until the age of 20, Zhong Yong did not go to school, and he did not receive guidance from a famous teacher. As he grew older, his poems were no different from those of his peers, and he made no progress. In the end, he disappeared from everyone. When I was studying, the teachers from all sides said that his poems were immature and his knowledge was shallow, so he might not be able to teach them."

"What does this story explain?"

Zhuge Liang smiled immediately. Of course he could understand that this was encouragement. It turned out that the master's intentions were here.

So he clasped his hands and said, "Explain that there is no limit to learning. Don't be complacent because of what you get for a while. You must study with an open mind, think more and learn more, so that you can continue to increase your knowledge, teacher! Students have been taught."

After Zhuge Liang said this, he was quite shocked in his heart. He put away his speculation about Xu Zhen just now, and made up his mind to continue studying.

But Xu Zhen sighed and said, "That's not what I meant."

"Eh?"

Zhuge Liang froze for a moment.

Xu Zhenping looked into the distance and said: "I mean, no matter how good a talent is, it needs a good father. If his father is two thousand stones, three princes and nine ministers, this kind of talent has long been prepared to be sent to the Taixue in the future. Now that you are in phase, you should be glad that you have a Junhou master! So don’t think about what you have and what you don’t have, just learn more!”

"Ah?!" Zhuge Liang immediately leaned back, feeling a little numb.

Xu Zhen continued: "You didn't realize what I meant, and I punished you to write a thousand-character eulogy, and the title is "My County Master".

Zhuge Liang: "..."

While he was in a daze, Xu Zhen got up immediately, stroked the top of Zhuge Liang's head, and then quickly walked out of the tent to wipe off his sweat.

Good guy, I can't teach any more in the future, this kid's mind is very open, much broader than ordinary people's thinking, he would actually suspect that I am a person from the future? !

……

Xu Zhen just came out.

Xia Houen came back from a distance, patted his horse in front of Xu Zhen, put the spear in his hand on the ground, and clasped his fists at Xu Zhen: "Your Majesty! The sentry patrols behind him and there is movement in the small forest, there must be an enemy!"

Xu Zhen suddenly laughed, "I knew it."

"Lü Bu has nowhere to go. Either he will be subdued by Dian Wei, or he will take the risk and steal my camp."

"Fortunately, I left him a path."

Xu Zhen turned around and went back to the camp. He quickly changed into his luggage and equipped with the ring-shoulders and horse-cutting swords. At this time, Xia Houen had already brought his mount.

After he got on his horse, he said to Xia Houen: "Tell all the soldiers and horses that only the main tent is left in the camp, and the candles will not be extinguished. Let one person enter it to accompany Kong Ming."

"Ambush is hidden in the forest behind the camp."

"The rest of the people patrolling in the front section must not have abnormalities."

"I personally lead the army to supervise the battle!"

"Here!!"

This camp was originally a bait.

It's just that he didn't tell Dian Wei.

The intention is to attract Lu Bu, a stray wolf.

Because he was already starving, if he knew, he would definitely come and kill Xu Zhen to try.

In fact, Xu Zhen thought it would not work. He never expected that Lu Bu hated him so much.

I'm afraid it's safer for him to go the right way.

It is not easy to ambush in the mountain trails, and it is impossible to go up the mountain.

If you make a trap in the mountains, Lu Bu will notice and run away.

Only he came out from the trail in the mountain, so there was no way to escape after closing the door!
