Chapter 681: Yuan Shu's thoughts
Wang Can led the soldiers to chase and kill, killing Yuan Shu and Lu Bu in embarrassment.
The army pursued for several miles in a row, and only stopped when it was close to Yuan Shu and Lu Bu's camp and returned to Shangyong City.
After LΓΌ Bu and Yuan Shu fled back to the camp in embarrassment, they immediately ordered to dig a ravine in the camp and place fortifications such as rejecting horses to resist Wang Can's attack. LΓΌ Bu and Yuan Shu stayed in the camp, licking their wounds alone. When they arrived at Shangyong, they led their troops out and fought with great momentum, but the final result was a big defeat and embarrassment.
After Chen Gong and Zhang Liao returned, they went to the camp to count the number of soldiers under their command and settle the wounded.
Yuan Shu also sent people to arrange the affairs of the soldiers under his command, but no matter what, Yuan Shu's losses could not be made up.
Zhang Xun was killed, Yang Hong was killed, and the death of the two generals greatly damaged Yuan Shu's strength, and his strength weakened greatly. Even if the soldiers under his command can be replenished by recruitment, the weakening of the general's strength cannot be recovered by recruiting a few soldiers, and the generals must be re-recruited.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Yuan Shu and Lu Bu sat opposite each other.
Yuan Shu looked at Lu Bu and asked, "General Lu, today's rescue of your strategists has relieved us, who is this person?" β
Lu Bu smiled and said: "He is the military advisor Chen Gong under my command, the word Gongtai. This person is good at strategy, and can march and set up formations, and he is a powerful person. In the past, Chen Gong once caught Cao Cao, who fled from Luoyang after attempting to assassinate Dong Zhuo, but unfortunately Cao Cao killed innocents indiscriminately, and the public platform abandoned Cao Cao, and when I left Chang'an, he gave me advice."
"Today's incident, Gongtai arranged for soldiers to meet our army's retreat, but unfortunately Wang Can was too cunning, and after sending a large army to chase and kill for a while, he actually led the army to chase and kill, which is simply unpredictable. This is not something that human can predict, and it is already very good that the public platform can stop Wang Can's soldiers for a while. β
When Lu Bu mentioned Wang Can, he gritted his teeth with hatred.
In the past, the princes fought against Dong, Wang Can was difficult to defeat Lu Bu, and Zhao Yun could not defeat Lu Bu, but Wang Can invited Sun Jian, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan and others to attack Lu Bu, which made Lu Bu flee in embarrassment and had to retreat.
Now that Wang Can is full-fledged, he actually sent three people to besiege him.
These three people are all first-class powerful people, and the three of them shot together, making Lu Bu helpless.
When Lu Bu gritted his teeth, he didn't notice that Yuan Shu's eyes were shining, and a strange look flashed in his eyes. Yuan Shu thought for a while and said, "General Lu, since Chen Gong is so powerful, why didn't Chen Gong give General Lu some guidance when we sent troops?" As long as he is willing to give us advice, he will definitely be able to defeat Wang Can. β
When he spoke, Yuan Shu didn't mention Wang Can at all, but everything was tied to Chen Gong.
Lu Bu was a big man and a rough one, and he didn't notice the difference in Yuan Shu at all.
And when Yuan Shu asked, Lu Bu's expression was a little embarrassed, and he spoke a little reluctantly. Seeing this, Yuan Shu was unwilling to let go of Lu Bu, and continued to ask: "General Lu, could it be that Chen Gong has a false name, you can lie to me, if there is Chen Gong to make suggestions, how can we fail to attack Wang Can?" β
Lu Bu was provoked by Yuan Shu and blurted out: "What's the case, Gongtai persuaded me before, let me set up camp first, and after hearing the specific situation, I will lead the troops to fight with Wang Can!" β
Yuan Shu sighed, and his face showed a hint of joy.
Isn't that ......
Yuan Shu was overjoyed in his heart, and after thinking about it for a while, he said in a deep voice: "General Lu, we fought with Wang Can and suffered heavy casualties, and at this time, we need a wise man like Chen Gongtai to give advice in order to stabilize the situation and defeat Wang Can." In my opinion, it is better to invite Chen Gongtai to come to the camp, and we will ask him for advice on the strategy to defeat Wang Can, what do you think? β
Lu Bu raised his eyebrows, and there was an impatient look on his face.
He had rejected Chen Gong's suggestion before, and now he was begging Chen Gong in a low voice, wouldn't it be very shameless?
Lu Bu thought for a while and said, "General Yuan, I think it's better to forget it." When the army was defeated, let all the soldiers recuperate for a few days, and then discuss the plan to deal with Wang Can after the army recovered. Although Lu Bu also wanted to defeat Wang Can immediately, he couldn't wipe his face and plead with Chen Gong, which was also the reason why it was difficult for a person like Lu Bu to achieve great things.
In history, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan, none of these three people were simple.
Li Zongwu commented that Cao Cao has a black heart, Liu Bei has a thick face, Sun Quan is not only black but also thick-faced, and the fact is also that as a monarch, he must not only be able to grasp the overall situation, but also be able to bend and stretch.
At least, Lu Bu couldn't do that, and Lu Bu especially liked to be brave.
This is something that Lu Bu has in his bones, and it is difficult to change.
Yuan Shu wanted to know more about Chen Gong's talent, how could he easily let go of Lu Bu?
He said in a deep voice: "General Lu, our crusade against Wang Can is a great matter. This time not only we attacked Yizhou, but also Cao Cao and Yuan Shao shot together, if Yuan Shao and Cao Cao defeated the army left in Chang'an and went all the way south, after they invaded Chengdu, they would definitely get more benefits, and we were worse, so let Chen Gong give advice earlier! β
After hearing this, Lu Bu showed a look of hesitation on his face.
On the one hand, it involves his face, and on the other hand, it is the attack on Wang Can, which makes him waver.
Yuan Shu saw that Lu Bu was still hesitant, and secretly scolded Lu Bu for being a puppet, it was difficult to achieve great things, and he didn't need to use it well, and he even took care of his own face.
It would be nice if he had someone to use!
At this time, Yuan Shu was not only jealous of Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and Wang Can, but also of Lu Bu.
You say that people like Wang Can and Cao Cao are cunning, and it is reasonable to have strategists, but people like Lu Bu who are brave enough to stand in the pit and don't are really tyrannical.
He persuaded: "General Lu, the matter is urgent, you can't hesitate!" β
Lu Bu couldn't stand Yuan Shu's persuasion, waved his hand impatiently and said, "Okay, okay, I'll send someone to call the public platform." β
He looked a little unhappy, but he still turned his head, looked outside the tent, and shouted, "Someone! When the voice fell, Lu Bu's own soldiers ran in, saluted Lu Bu, and waited for Lu Bu's orders.
Yuan Shu saw that Lu Bu had made up his mind, and his heart was also happy.
Lu Bu instructed: "Go and invite the ** master, I will find him to discuss important matters!" β
"No!"
The soldier replied and turned to leave.
After Yuan Shu watched the soldiers leave, his eyes turned and he said loudly: "General Lu, we have encountered obstacles in Shangyong City, and Yuan Shao and Cao Cao have been blocked in Chang'an, as long as we defeat Wang Can first, whether it is to kill Wang Can or capture Wang Can, we can get the opportunity to enter Chengdu first, and then we will be able to divide more benefits?" β
After hearing this, Lu Bu nodded.
After a while, there was the sound of footsteps outside the tent.
The curtain of the tent was lifted, and a middle-aged man in a green robe walked in. The middle-aged man walked on foot, revealing an extraordinary bearing, elegant and with a hint of majesty, which made people feel good.
Seeing this, Yuan Shu secretly praised Chen Gong for being a great talent!
