Chu and Han contend for the throne

Chapter 456
Zhou Guanfu was drinking alone in the big tent.

I don't know what kind of consideration it was, but Lu Tai finally decided to stay in Yuci temporarily. Han Wang Han Xin didn't mean to drive people away, and even offered to supply food and grass.

Zhou Guanfu likes martial arts and hates literature, he likes to do things straight, and he doesn't use his brain very much, but now, he has to force himself to think more, why doesn't Lu Tai refuse to go back to Guanzhong?What is he thinking in his heart?Even if the situation in Guanzhong is unknown, how can there be any reason to stay in Korea without knowing it?

There is also Han Wang Han Xin, who delivered food and gave up Yuci City. The motive may not be so simple. So, is this out of goodwill towards the Han Dynasty, or is it trying to recruit Lu Tai?

However, Zhou Guanfu is really not suitable for intrigue. He spent the whole night thinking about it, but he couldn't think of a ugly Yinmao at all. Therefore, he could only drink away his worries and wait passively.

In the other corner of the big tent, Zhou Yafu was quietly reviewing Sun Tzu's Art of War.

The Battle of Hulaoguan touched Zhou Yafu quite a lot. After that, he changed his previous style of liking martial arts and loathing literature, and became crazy obsessed with the art of war. The Han army fled north and went into exile all the way But this kid still has leisure time and ambition to search everywhere for military books and war strategies, and then read when he is free, and when he is free.

"Second brother, don't look at that broken war book, come over and talk to elder brother." Zhou Guanfu was depressed and wanted to find someone to talk to.

Zhou Yafu turned a deaf ear to Zhou Guanfu's words, and was still immersed in the magical atmosphere brought to him by the book of war. Seeing that his brothers ignored him, Zhou Guanfu was a little annoyed, and he was also a little drunk. Sun Tzu's art of war, said angrily: "I'm almost suffocated, do you still have the mentality to read military books?"

Zhou Yafu spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Brother, since you are feeling uncomfortable, you should talk to the general. Aren't you two best friends? Is there anything you can't say?"

"You think I didn't look for him?" Zhou Guanfu said angrily, "But he didn't say anything."

Zhou Yafu pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "Actually, I know a thing or two about the mind of the general."

"Oh?" Zhou Guanfu's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he said anxiously, "Second brother, tell me quickly, what exactly is he thinking?"

"Two words, entangled." Zhou Yafu said, "The general is probably very entangled at this moment. On the one hand, his father and his aunt died because of the king, and a large number of Lu's old relatives were also killed by the king. It would be a lie to say that he has no resentment towards the king in his heart, but on the other hand, he does not want to be a usurper."

"What do you mean?" Zhou Guanfu didn't quite understand.

Zhou Yafu said angrily: "Let's put it this way, the general is waiting."

"Wait? What are you waiting for? What is there to wait for?" Zhou Guanfu scratched his head, still puzzled.

"Wait for news from the king." Zhou Guanfu lowered his voice and said solemnly, "If the king escapes back to Guanzhong safely, the general will lead his troops back to Xianyang soon, but if something happens to the king, what will the general do?" Such a decision, even the little brother can't say it well, and you, the big brother, really have to think about it."

"Me?" Zhou Guanfu pointed to his nose and asked, "What do you think?"

Zhou Yafu said: "If an accident happened to the former king, if the general wanted to hold his troops back and follow the example of Zhao Gao and Li Si to hold power, how would you deal with yourself?"

"No way?" Zhou Guanfu said in a deep voice, "How could this be?"

Zhou Yafu picked up Sun Tzu's Art of War on the ground, and said: "The art of war says that soldiers are impermanent, and water has an impermanent shape. The human heart is constantly changing with the changes of the times and positions."

After all, Zhou Yafu asked very seriously: "Brother, if the general really has the heart of disobedience, what will you do?"

"I will kill him!" Zhou Guanfu raised his neck, drank the strong wine in the wine glass, and said viciously, "Then kill himself!"

As soon as the voice fell, a soldier came in and said: "General, there is an old friend visiting."

"An old friend?" Zhou Guanfu frowned displeasedly, "There is no old friend of this general here, no see!"

"Why, General Hussars doesn't even want to see you?" Before he finished speaking, the curtain was lifted, and a tall and tall figure bent over and entered.

##########
The relationship between the four brothers of this generation of the Lu family has always been very good, so although Lu Tai is a high-ranking general, the two brothers Lu Ze and Lu Lu are not very restrained in front of him.

Lu Ze took a large pot of pork, and said to Lu Tai while eating happily: "Brother, don't go back to Guanzhong if you ask me, what good is there to be a slave to the Liu family? It's better to send troops to seize Taiyuan County, brother, you Be a King of Jin! With our current strength, what can Han Wang Han Xin do to me?"

Lu Tai frowned, and said angrily, "Eat your meat."

Of course, Lu Tai would not take Lu Ze's words to heart. In the minds of most of the Lu family's children, in fact, they no longer regard the Liu family as their masters. It is reasonable, but as the Patriarch of the Lu family, Lu Tai has to think more.

Moreover, Lu Tai once made a poisonous oath in front of his late father Lu Ze-never betray the Han!
When the two brothers were relatively speechless, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the tent, and then the curtain was lifted, and Lu Lu had already walked in with a dusty face: "Brother, there is news from home!"

Seeing the dusty face of the general of the Lu family, Lu Tai suddenly knelt and sat up.

The family general bowed deeply to Lu Tai, and said, "Patriarch, something big happened in the country!"

"Don't worry, drink your saliva first, and speak slowly!" Lu Tai signaled Lu Ze to bring the water jug ​​on the case to the general.

The general raised his neck and drank all the water in the crock, then wiped his chin and said comfortably: "Patriarch, the King of Han has collapsed, and the news has spread throughout Guanzhong!"

"Huh?!" Lu Tai's expression moved slightly.

Lu Ze groaned, a piece of fat stuck in his throat and nearly choked him to death.

Lu Lu was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said to Lu Tai: "Brother, go back to Xianyang!"

In the battle of Mianshui, Taiwei Zhou Bo, military adviser Zhang Liang, veteran Guan Ying, Wang Xi, etc. all fell, and now the king has also collapsed. Looking at the entire Han Kingdom, who else is qualified to contend with the Lu family?At this time, if Lu Tai leads [-] cavalry to fight back to Guanzhong, whether he supports the prince Liu Heng or establishes a new king, it will only be a matter of flipping hands!

"No hurry." Lu Tai waved his hand and said, "Wait a minute."

"Wait?!" Lu Lu said in amazement, "Brother, what are you waiting for?"

"There is still an uncertain factor." Lu Tai pondered, "It must be eliminated first."

"Uncertain factors?" Lu Lu was stunned when he heard the words, and then a tiger-like figure suddenly jumped into his mind, Champion Hou? !

Although it has not been long since the champion Hou replaced Lu Tai as Hussar General, his reputation in the army has faintly surpassed that of the general Lu Tai by virtue of his extraordinary martial arts and illustrious military exploits. As soon as he climbed up, at least half of the [-] Han cavalry stationed in Yuci would follow him.

"Brother, it's better to lure him into the camp." Lu Lu made a beheading gesture with a grim expression on his face.

Lu Tai frowned and remained silent. On the one hand, he knew very well that Zhou Guanfu was the biggest obstacle to the Lu family's monopolization of power, but on the other hand, he and Zhou Guanfu were invincible, and he couldn't bear to attack Zhou Guanfu suddenly.

Over there, Lu Ze finally swallowed the fat stuck in his throat, and said, "Brother, don't stop, you should be messed up by it!"

"Okay, don't talk about it." Lu Tai waved his hand impatiently, and said angrily, "Let me think about it."

As soon as the voice fell, a soldier came in and reported: "General, the champion is here to visit."

"I'm talking about him, but he sent it to the door by himself!" Lu Lu said grimly, "The younger brother will prepare the knife and axe now. If the elder brother wants to use it, he only needs to throw a cup as a sign!"

After finishing speaking, Lu Lu turned around and left, and Lu Ze also went out of the tent. Lu Tai stretched out his hand to stop him, but he swallowed the words back into his stomach.

After a while, Zhou Guanfu walked into the tent.

To Lu Tai's surprise, there was a person behind Zhou Guanfu, and his head was covered with a cloak, so he couldn't see his face clearly. The soldiers guarding outside the tent tried to stop him, but Zhou Guanfu just stared. The soldiers were silent like cicadas, and then the two fought back.

Seeing the ceremony, Lu Tai pointed to the man in the cloak and asked Zhou Guanfu, "Shengzhi, this is..."

"General, are you all right?" Before he could finish speaking, the man in the cloak suddenly lifted the cloak by himself.

"Ya, Yaxiang?!" Seeing that it was Bai Mo, Lu Tai was startled, and instinctively grabbed the wine glass on the case with his right hand. Counting the time, Lu Ze and Lu Lu should have prepared their swords and axes. Just throw the wine glass on the ground, and Lu Ze and Lu Lu will swarm in with swords and axes.

But, can the knife and axe kill the champion Hou?

Maybe, before the knife and ax hand got his money, he had already died under the champion Hou Jian?

Zhou Guanfu stared at the wine glass in Lu Tai's hand, expressionless, but quietly clenched the handle of the sword with his left hand.

Lu Tai suddenly fell into a violent struggle, fell?Still not falling?If he falls, the friendship between him and Zhou Guanfu for more than 30 years may come to an end, but if he does not fall, the Lu family will lose the golden opportunity to monopolize power!After struggling for quite a while, Lu Tai finally did not drop the wine glass to the ground, but put it back on the case.

Bai Mo also breathed a sigh of relief, took out the edict from his arms, and said loudly: "The late king's edict, the general kneels down to welcome you!"

Lu Tai knelt down silently. Although he knew that the King of Han had collapsed, he still had some doubts in his heart. Now that Bai Mo had personally confirmed it, he knew that the King of Han had collapsed. Emotions, anyway, before his father died, he knelt in front of the King of Han and swore "never betray the Han"!
