Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

Chapter 95
Outside the colored glaze factory, Ruo Rong was holding a bottle of newly produced tripod-shaped colored glaze, stroking proudly.

Only by adding a small amount of copper and iron, different colors can be added. Although it is not uniform, it is completely different from the original batch.

Now that they came from the fairy mountain, I am afraid that no one will doubt it.

"What are you thinking, the halazi is about to flow out."

A familiar voice came from behind, and Ruo Rong immediately hugged the glazed tripod to ask Lin Mo for credit, but the latter waved his hand directly and pulled him to a corner.

"Is there a team of treasure thieves?"

"Treasure thief?"

There is a team under Cao Cao's command that specializes in this business, called Mojin Xiaowei, but the common name is Mobao Thief. Ruo Rong was puzzled, "Could it be that Marquis Wen's military expenditure is so tight?"

"Just tell me if there is any?" Lin Mo didn't explain.

"There are more than a dozen people in my house who used to do this."

Ruo Rong said with a troubled face: "However, Xuzhou is no more like Yuzhou and Guanzhong. There are imperial tombs or Houlings. Otherwise, they would not be reduced to my house and become serfs."

"Just have it."

Lin Mo chuckled, and took out a piece of silk cloth from his bosom, "I went to Peicheng and Xiaoguan a few days ago, there shouldn't be much problem with Peicheng, Song Xian and Hou Cheng defended the city very well.

But Xiaoguan is a bit worse. This is limited by the terrain and there is nothing I can do about it, so I am going to do a little modification. "

Ze Rong took the silk cloth and inspected it carefully, and soon showed embarrassment, "It's about seven or eight miles away, and it leads to the mountain to the west of Xiaoguan. There are only a dozen or so people in this area. It can't be done in ten years."

"It's okay. I told Hao Meng before I left. They will be responsible for guiding when the time comes. General Hao will send his personal guards to help."

After Lin Mo finished speaking, Ruo Rong heaved a sigh of relief, and then said solemnly: "This cost is not small, my dear brother, you have to be aware of it."

"I know that, Pengcheng's treasury has no more money to spend." Lin Mo looked straight at Ruo Rong.

"Brother, don't look at me, I live with my belt on." From Lin Mo's ambiguous eyes, Ruo Rong had a bad premonition.

"It's not enough for me to give you an IOU. You also know that these batches of colored glazes will definitely make a lot of money after they are sold."

Lin Mo hugged Ruo Rong in a haha, and said with a smile: "After Mi's family left, who doesn't know that you, Ruo Da Juncheng, are the richest man in Xuzhou, such a small amount of money can't trouble you."

"Okay, that is, brother, you open your mouth, and I will go all out."

Ruo Rong made a decision that went against his heart, and asked intently, "How much do you want to borrow?"

"I estimate, fifty thousand gold."

"My dear brother, I remembered that the soup was still boiling at home and I forgot to turn off the fire, so I will stay with you less and drink tea together when I have time."

Just as Ruo Rong wanted to put oil on the soles of his feet, Lin Mo dragged him back and used a trick to force men to lock men.

Before Lin Mo could open his mouth, Ruo Rong yelled, "You're too outrageous, you've got [-] gold in your mouth, you see what's worth in Brother Yu, you can cut it off and sell it!"

This reaction is reasonable.

Fifty thousand gold won't be enough to empty out Ruo Rong, and serious damage to one's vitality will definitely be unavoidable.

"It's already said that I owe it, but it's still not enough, can my Liuli make tens of thousands of gold?"

Lin Mo restrained Ruo Rong, making him unable to move. It could be seen that Ruo Rong, who was so wealthy, could not be subdued, and he did not let go when he was about to die.

This batch of colored glazes can indeed be sold at sky-high prices, but playing with rare goods and living is a long-term business. Naturally, the speed of making money cannot be too fast. Ruo Rong's sensitivity to money made him instinctively want to reject Lin Mo.

Money is only called money in one's own pocket, and it is just a number in other people's pockets.

"Before returning to Pengcheng, Lord Yuezhang told me that Liu Ziyang was going to be the prefect of Langya. I said I wanted you to be the prefect, and Lord Yuezhang reluctantly agreed.

But since Zuo Dajun Cheng doesn't trust me, forget it. "

Lin Mo let go of his hand, shaking his head with a look of being let down, and left with his hands behind his back.

Langya prefect Wenhou promised to give it to me?
Ruo Rong's spirit was lifted, and he stood in front of Lin Mo, then heartbroken, beat his chest and stamped his feet: "Brother Yu, who do you take Brother Yu to seduce me with the position of prefect of Langya? Even if you sell me, it's not worth it." What a lot of money.

but"

Before Lin Mo could react, Ruo Rong Dayi said awe-inspiringly: "Marquis Wen often educates his subordinates to think of ways to deal with enormous difficulties, as long as you persevere, there are always more ways than difficulties.

Although everyone in the world knows that I am as poor as water and have a breeze in my sleeves, I am willing to borrow it for my virtuous brother.

Let me tell you in advance, I am not for the position of Langya prefect, what I value is the loyalty of our brothers. "

leave.
Lin Mo pushed Ruo Rong in disgust, keeping a distance of one foot. Now he understands why Emperor Ling and Emperor Huan like to sell officials and nobles, and the money is coming soon.

Then he put his hands on his chest and sneered at Ruo Rong, and said with a snort, "Hurry up and take out the money, don't delay."

"All right, all right, I'll go back and make arrangements, but Xiao Guan's transformation won't cost [-] gold."

Lin Mo sighed, rubbed the center of his brows and said weakly: "Of course it won't be used, because the [-] gold in it is to add drainage to Pengcheng."

History has completely changed, and the flooding of Xuzhou may not happen.

However, it is only possible.

Cao Jun's power is huge, after all, it is not something that the old father-in-law at this stage can confront head-on. In case Xiaoguan and Peicheng are lost, Pengcheng is the last bastion, and there is no room for loss.

To be poor is to be poor, but there are some things that have to be done.

However, the drainage system in this era is already relatively developed. Lin Mo only needs to find a way to get some money to implement it, otherwise it would be too much for him to figure out a way.

When the two were discussing the details, Lu Lingqi broke in, "Father is back, I want you to return to the General's Mansion quickly!"

Lin Mo frowned, there must be something urgent, "Let's go!"

Back in the mansion, after listening to Lu Bu's explanation, Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief. After all, it wasn't his family that was in trouble, and it was a good thing after all.

Then I realized something was wrong.

The frontline army is in a desperate situation. As the lord of the nine counties, he came back to ask for advice, which is a bit outrageous.

The old father-in-law does not deceive me, he really only believes in his own family.

Lu Bu is a good father-in-law, but not a good lord. If he doesn't correct this habit, it will end badly sooner or later.

But right now is not the time to take political lessons with my old father-in-law, I have to level up the military affairs first.

Lin Mo went to Shuai's case and rummaged for a while, took out a sheepskin drawing, which was the topographic map of Anfeng, and began to check it carefully.

According to what the old father-in-law said just now, Cao Jun has probably already passed Runan by now. According to the time calculation, there are still five or six days before he will arrive at the front line of Anfeng.

However, Anfeng, like the Lujiang River, has many water veins, so the march will inevitably be delayed, and it may be possible to buy an extra day or two.

But this is talking about the marching time of Cao Cao's army. For a team of 3 people, there must be no less than 5000 vanguards. These people are a day or two faster than the Chinese army.

Therefore, the time when Liu Bei encountered Cao Jun's attack can only be recognized as four or five days later.

"Looking at you like this, you also think Liu Bei should be saved?" Lu Bu asked tentatively.

"Of course I want to save!"

Lin Mo didn't take his eyes off the map, and said in a deep voice: "Jia Xu is right, once Cao Jun is stationed in Anfeng, we will fall into a difficult passive situation.

I don't like Liu Bei either, but he is at the end of the road now, and he is no threat to us. Keeping him can strengthen the defense of the flanks. "

After getting the confirmed answer, Lu Bu let out a long breath, "I have asked Boping to call up troops, and we can set off early tomorrow morning, so we should be able to rush to the rescue before Cao's army arrives."

There are also a thousand cavalry in the city to escort Lin Mo back. They must be taken to the front line. Fortunately, there are not many of them. As long as they have enough rations, they can set off immediately without delaying time.

The only problem is that they are trapped in the camp. They are heavy armored infantry. Even if they don't wear armor, they need to be transported with the army. They will definitely not be able to participate in the battle.

Lv Bu twisted his wrist, with a look of fighting spirit. After waiting for so long, he can finally compete with Cao Jun again.

Lin Mo was not as relaxed as he was, and his expression was serious.

From the map, there are no terrains that can be used. Of course, there may be terrains other than the map that have not been discovered, but Lin Mo has found nothing so far.

If he just rushed to the front line in such a hurry, not to mention whether Liu Bei had already had his head smashed by Cao Cao, this hasty battle would undoubtedly be defeated.

Cao Cao only used 3 troops in order to pursue mobility. Naturally, these [-] troops should also be his most elite troops. Even if he fights with all his strength, he may not have a chance of winning, let alone such a rush.

Lin Mo pouted his chin and looked tired. It seemed that this game of chess really couldn't be saved.

The most elite troops on our side are not on the front line, let God of Liao lead the troops to carry Cao Cao's vanguard?A little unrealistic.

In fact, Liu Bei's death can be said to have nothing to do with the overall situation, but once Anfeng is stationed by Cao Cao, he will fall into a great passive strategically.

Cao Cao's power will be like a pair of pliers coming from the southeast two lines, and at the same time, the superiority of troops will be brought to the extreme.

how to save
Even at night, Lin Mo couldn't figure this out.

He was lying on the lazy chair, with his right hand in front of his eyes, in a dozed state.

If you think about it seriously, as long as you have a way to support Cao Jun's vanguard, after the front is frustrated, the extra few days on your side will be enough to prepare.

Then form a corner with Liu Bei, which may contain Cao Jun.

They marched at such a speed, they must not have much food and grass, as long as they dragged them for a month or two, they had no choice but to retreat.

The problem is how to block Cao Jun's vanguard.

In Jiujiang, the Liao God led 2 troops to station, but most of these [-] troops were Yuan Shu's old troops, and their combat effectiveness was probably far inferior to Cao's elite troops.

Also, no cavalry
No, if there are cavalry, there are more than 1000 cavalry among Zhang Xiu's [-] Xiliang soldiers
Take all of these to fight?
It's really hard work, let's not talk about Cao Jun's vanguard if he can't fight, who will deal with the follow-up elite army, don't let him have the idea of ​​​​taking Jiujiang out of thin air.

It is best to allow Liu Bei to carry Cao Jun's vanguard by himself.
Lin Mo's brain was running rapidly, and adrenaline was also being secreted crazily. Unknowingly, Lin Mo even substituted himself into Liu Bei's camp, and countless battles in ancient and modern China and abroad were replayed at this moment.

Anfeng, a dilapidated government office, a weak combat force, and a favorable time and place that cannot be borrowed.

After an unknown period of time, Lin Mo's body trembled suddenly, as if the body's natural reminder reaction when he was half asleep and half awake, but his tired eyes were full of excitement.

"It just so happens that Anfeng is also in ruins, so it should work. Other than that, there seems to be no other way."

Lin Mo stood up and walked to the desk desk beside him, and began to write furiously.

After finishing all this, Lin Mo stretched his waist.

I have done everything that needs to be done, and whether I can survive depends on Liu Huangshu's own luck.

There was nothing to say all night, and Lu Bu led Gao Shun and a thousand cavalrymen to wait at the gate of the east city early the next morning.

Lin Mo came straight to the point and said, "Master Yuezhang may have to go first."

"Why? Isn't Cao Jun arriving in four days? We should be able to catch up with the normal speed of our trip."

Lu Bu doesn't seem to have a sense of time urgency, which is normal, after all, the fire didn't reach his home after all.

"I can catch up, but it's too late to deploy."

Lin Mo could only tell the time and situation of the battle he estimated, and handed the prepared bamboo slips to Lu Bu, "By the time we arrive at the front line, the first battle has probably already started, and only Mr. Yuezhang's Chituma will go first Only when he arrives will it be possible to keep Liu Bei."

Holding the bamboo slips, Lv Bu nodded and said with a smile, "You have managed to defeat Cao's army thousands of miles away. It's an unprecedented feat. You should leave a good name.

I knew it was right to come back and find you! "

Then he looked at Gao Shun, "Boping, protect Yunwen!"

"Here!"

When he was about to ride away, Lin Mo stopped him again, and what he said just now reminded Lin Mo unintentionally.

There is a difference between superiority and inferiority. Of course, as a son-in-law, you can't tell Yue Zhang face to face, but there are some reminders, I have to say.

"Master Yue Zhang, your actions this time will easily chill the hearts of your subordinates, don't let them think that our camp cannot be pierced by needles or water can be poured in, otherwise sooner or later they will feel uneasy about their ambitions, and eventually they will even leave in depression. "

Lu Bu pressed his eyebrows and understood the meaning of Lin Mo's words. He even clearly remembered the disappointed expressions on Liu Ye and Chen Deng's faces at that time. This kind of natural partiality will indeed be difficult to change for a while.

"With the expansion of our territory, sooner or later my son-in-law will be alone like Uncle Wenyuan, and he will not be able to accompany Mr. Yuezhang all the time.

If they ask people to ask questions every time they are undecided, the people below will feel that their existence is meaningless at all.

In fact, if everyone agrees like this time, Mr. Yue Zhang should also firmly believe in them. "

"What if they disagree?" Lu Bu asked with a dry smile.

Lin Mo subconsciously wanted to say that Jia Xu's ability was the most outstanding, but after thinking about it, he felt that such a statement was inappropriate, and finally he could only say helplessly: "Just like Guangling's appointment, the trade-offs, the people below can't figure it out. Lord Yuezhang's mind; secondly, it can also be covered by rain and dew, so that no one party will be left out in the cold."

This kind of balancing technique is actually the golden mean. If he is not by his side, only this kind of golden mean can make him better control the group of advisers.

Lu Bu nodded slightly, and patted Lin Mo's arm, "Understood, don't worry, get used to it slowly."

Then he got on the red rabbit horse, looked back at the two of them, "I'll be waiting for you in Jiujiang!"

After speaking, walk away
