The Three Kingdoms of the Lu family

() Xiapi, above the main hall of the State Shepherd's Mansion.

Lu Bu leaned against a soft tiger-skin couch.There was an unconcealable look of exhaustion on his slashed face. After defending the city for a month, he fought on the top of the city almost every day, without stopping for a moment.

Even an iron man would wear out.

Guo Jia's prediction was right.Lu Bu was in the middle age, although his muscles and bones were strong, he had gradually passed the peak of his life.The continuous battle made him unable to do what he wanted.

Under the soft couch are the seats for the generals.Hou Cheng, Cao Xing, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Wei Xu sat in order.The original eight generals under Marquis Wen's tent had long since lost their former splendor.

Her lips were chapped, her complexion was sallow, and her eyes were bloodshot.The blood stains all over his body replaced the original color of the general's armor, and he looked extremely embarrassed.

They were sitting on Lu Bu's left, against the wall, and placed more than a dozen fiery red charcoal basins. The orange flames swayed and crackled, adding a lot of warmth to the room. se.

As for the right, it is the position of civil servants.

Chen Gong, Chen Qun and Yuan Huan looked at each other speechlessly.Or close your eyes and meditate, or frown deeply.The biting cold wind blew across the roof of the hall, causing the tiles to whine in the air.

In the main hall, no one said a word, they were as gloomy as ghosts.

Lu Yi looked left and right, then at Lu Bu who was wearing a thick blanket, with a sullen face, wondering what he was thinking, and sighed slightly.

His sigh broke the dullness in the hall.

Everyone looked at him, with curiosity and displeasure.But the scene was not so silent at all.The stagnant lake was slightly rippling.

Lu Bu coughed, a ray of light flickered slightly in the majestic tiger eyes. "Zicheng, do you have something to say?

Since Lu Yi woke up injured more than ten days ago.Lu Bu clearly felt the change in Lu Yi.He couldn't articulate that feeling.But Lu Bu knew that Lu Yi had become a little unusual.

Lu Yi froze for a moment, shook his head with a wry smile, and said in a low voice, "Uncle, what I want to say may not be what you like to hear."

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the main hall became dull again.Lu Bu's complexion changed drastically, and he suppressed the attack. Yin said with a cold face: "No need to say too much, if I want to break through, it is absolutely impossible!"

Breakout?

All the generals present were taken aback and looked at Lu Yi in surprise.Isn't the little general always brave and ruthless, and would rather die than retreat, why did he suddenly think of breaking out?

Only Zhang Liao Gao Shun, the two of them frowned, showing a thoughtful look.

"Little General's words are wrong!" Chen Qun shook his head with his eyes slightly closed, with a hint of disapproval on his face.If it wasn't for Lu Yi who spoke, he would have ridiculed him long ago.

"Oh, so Mr. Chen thought of a strategy to retreat from the enemy?" Lu Yi asked modestly.Appears vain.A pair of eyes flashed an imperceptible murderous intent.

The relationship between Chen Qun and the Chen family in Xiapi is not simple.Logically speaking, when Cao Cao marched east, Chen Deng led the county soldiers as the vanguard. As a person with a close relationship with the Chen family, he should leave the city as soon as possible.

However, this Chen Qun did the opposite.He stayed firmly by Lu Bu's side, and even led people to arrest the Chen family members himself.

Because of this, he gained great trust from Lu Bu.On the side of civil servants, he is already the leader, and Chen Gong has to stand aside.Lu Yi immediately felt the pressure from his objection.Can't help but tit for tat.

Chen Qun's complexion suddenly became a little stiff.He is a scribe, what good strategy can he have?But everyone is looking at him, not saying a word, to the detriment of his reputation.He could only forcefully laugh and said, "From my point of view, Cao's army will definitely not feel good if they attack the city continuously and lose troops. As long as we last until the middle of winter, Cao's army will surely retreat!"

"What if we don't survive the midwinter?" Lu Yi asked rhetorically.

"As long as Marquis Wen is around, it won't be a problem to survive until the middle of winter! Could it be that the little general doesn't have enough confidence in the lord?" Chen Qun couldn't help being annoyed by Lu Yi's continuous questioning, and his tone gradually became harsher.

"Okay, just as the long article said, we will defend the city for another month. If the Cao army does not retreat at that time, it will not be too late to break through!" Lu Bu said lightly, still leaning towards Chen Qun in his heart.

After all, Chen Qun was a counselor, and Lu Yi gave people the impression that he was just a brave and ruthless guy. In a short time, it was not enough to change everyone's opinion.

Lu Yi knew Lu Bu quite well.This person has a bad temper and is headstrong. No one dares to change his decision.With a slight sigh, he wisely stopped the topic.

"Generals, how is the situation in the army?" Now that he had decided to stick to it, Lu Bu immediately began to care about the morale of the soldiers.

"Everyone is injured, morale is low, and soldiers have no fighting spirit."

With a sullen face, Gao Shun replied sternly.He didn't even look at the angry look in Lu Bu's eyes.

Even Lu Yi was secretly sweating for Gao Shun, this man spoke too straightforwardly.No wonder Lu Bu didn't like it.

Hou Cheng, who was in the first place, sneered.Shaking the clean armor on his body, he said viciously: "General Gao is too alarmist. Our army has won consecutive victories and morale is high. Although there are occasional setbacks, but with the power of the lord, a mere thief, how can he be presumptuous?" !"

"Yes, my lord is invincible, Cao Cao is already exhausted, besides, we still have Xiapijian City, and there are more than ten thousand dare-to-death soldiers. The geographical advantage and harmony are all on our side. Although Cao's army is good at fighting, it is about to reach its limit in the end Just a few more rounds of defense, Cao Jun will be unable to attack for a long time, and he will retreat."

Chen Qun's eyes lit up, and he followed Hou Cheng's words with eloquence.Huanwang gave Lu Bu a slight hug.Taking advantage of people not paying attention, he quickly gave Cao Xing and others a wink.

Several generals reacted quickly, and immediately echoed loudly, showing signs of approval.

Lu Bu's gloomy complexion gradually improved under the praise of the generals.

At this moment, among the generals, Zhang Liao stood up suddenly and said loudly: "My lord, although Mr. Chen's words are reasonable, although Cao's army is exhausted, the morale of Chen Deng's Guangling army is high, and the Chen family is in Xuzhou, so the influence is even greater. It’s huge. I’m afraid the last general will change the city if the fight continues.”

"Nonsense! With my lord here, who dares to create chaos! General Zhang, you are clearly messing up the morale of the army." Hou Cheng's face turned cold, and he gave Zhang Liao a hard look.

He also said just now that the military spirit is available.Zhang Liao suddenly came over to pour cold water on him, which was obviously a face-to-face sabotage.How could Hou Cheng not be angry.

The rest of the generals also stared angrily.His face was full of displeasure.

"My lord, if General Zhang's words spread, the army's morale will inevitably be disturbed." Chen Qun smiled gently, but his words were tinged with coldness.

Lu Bu's improved complexion immediately turned livid.A faint murderous aura gushed out from his whole body.He said coldly, "Wen Yuan, the army is besieging the city. Could it be that you are afraid?"

"My lord, Mingjian. The last general followed the lord to fight in the south and north. He has fought more than a hundred times, and he has no fear in his heart. I'm just discussing the matter." Zhang Liao said calmly.

"It's good to talk about the facts, but I don't know what everyone will think when General Zhang's words are spread." Chen Qun said sarcastically.

The murderous aura on Lu Bu's body became stronger again, and he looked at Zhang Liao with suspicion.

As soon as he heard Chen Qun's words, Lu Yi knew it was going to be bad.This Chen Qun clearly wants to put Zhang Liao to death.Confuse the morale of the army, ranging from deprivation of military power, to severe death.

It's fine if it's someone else.But it was Zhang Liao who was being tricked, so Lu Yi couldn't ignore it.

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun can be said to be the most loyal generals to Lu Bu.How could he allow such a general to be calculated by villains.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi stood up, bowed towards Lu Bu, and said in a deep voice, "Uncle, General Zhang's words reminded me that I have a plan, maybe I can make Chen Deng stop."

"Oh? Zicheng has something to say, just say it."

As expected, Lu Bu diverted his attention, raised his hand with great interest, and motioned for Lu Yi to sit down and talk.

All the generals in the tent also looked at the confident Lu Yi curiously, and there was a strange look in everyone's heart.

Little General, it seems that something is really different.
