Chapter 2 Waiting for a good opportunity
In the past, every time I saw the Three Kingdoms, I admired Lu Bu's bravery that was the best in the world, but found that his bravery was often used, and was regarded as thugs by Ding Yuan, Dong Zhuo, Wang Yun and Yuan Shao, who sold their lives for them but gained nothing.
This time, Lu Bu did not become someone else's thug, and he had to use this extraordinary force to conquer more generals for his own use.
Every time I watch the Three Kingdoms or Romance of the Three Kingdoms, I admire Zhang Liao's power and bravery that Xiaoyaojin showed, and Gao Shun's style of leading the invincible general in the camp. I admire Chen Gong's plan to almost destroy Cao Cao repeatedly, but I regret that Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, and Chen Gong were not valued by Lu Bu.
This time, Lu Bu will not miss talent. Not only will he value Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and Chen Gong, but he will also recruit all the heroes from all over the world to serve him, combine the wisdom and strength of the world, and achieve a great cause comparable to Qin Emperor and Han Wu.
When I looked at the Three Kingdoms before, I found that Lu Bu was extremely brave and had a little literary talent, but he did not have any political talent. The people were hungry and killed everywhere. Compared with Cao Cao, who was in a military farm to pacify a place with sufficient soldiers and food, Lu Bu was not a wise ruler.
This time, Lu Bu wanted to support the country and strengthen his own power, and to protect all emperors and to be a true benevolent monarch, cherish the people, love the people, and protect the Han people so that they will not be too poisoned by warlords and disasters and plagues, so that the Five Barbarians are powerless to invade China, and the Han people will no longer have to experience painful ethnic integration again and again.
All of this can only be achieved after eliminating the two people in front of him. However, Lu Bu knew that it was not an opportunity now. He could no longer be the slave of the three surnames in history, and he could not even let the outside world know that he had eliminated Ding Yuan. He needed to wait for a good opportunity to kill someone to blame others by using a knife.
Only when Ding Yuan was eliminated with justification and successfully controlled the 8,000 soldiers in Bingzhou could Lu Bu be able to show his thousands of years of knowledge in his mind in this time and space, so that the Han nation would always be on the top of the world nation.
After Ding Yuan and Hao Meng left the tent, Lu Bu slowly opened his eyes and scanned everything in the tent.
A black wooden rack stands in the navy blue coarse cloth tent with a stack of things on it.
When Lu Bu looked closely, he found that it was a bamboo slip with Sun Tzu's Art of War engraved on it.
Didn’t Cai Lun invent the paper? Why did he use bamboo slips to engrave them into books?
Lu Bu sorted out his memory a little. It turned out that the paper made in the Eastern Han Dynasty was very rough, worse than the straw paper in later generations. It was very unclear and the price was very expensive. People's writing materials were still mainly bamboo slips and silk. It seemed that he wanted to improve papermaking skills as soon as possible, and the bamboo slips were too hindered from the spread of cultural education.
There was something hanging on the wooden rack, like a reduced version of a swing, with a wooden block tied between two cloth ropes. This was actually a stirrup, but it was just a one-sided stirrup, which was made of wooden.
It seems that the bilateral iron stirrups that later cavalry rely on did not appear, and there was no high bridge saddle and horseshoe during this period. The single-sided stirrup was only used to assist in getting on and off the horse. During the ride, you still have to hold the reins and clamp the belly of the horse with your legs so that you will not fall while the horse is galloping. It is easy to get tired when riding for a long time, and it is difficult to use bows and arrows effectively on the running horse's back. It is impossible to use swords and spears as you wish in close combat. Only a few powerful generals can control the war horses and then kill the generals and seize the flag.
Although he wanted to make double-sided stirrups, high-bridge saddles and horseshoes in one go, Lu Bu knew very well that when he made these things without tens of thousands of cavalry, he would only give up the Xianbei and Xiongnu in the north for free, so he had to fight with the horse's belly with one-sided stirrups. The reason why Lu Bu was called a flying general was that in addition to his martial arts that were the best in the world, he was also the best in riding skills. The Red Rabbit Horse could not be subdued by any general. Since he had overwhelming strength for the time being, there was no need to upgrade and transform the cavalry equipment immediately.
A halberd leaning against the bed is one meter long and made of black iron. The head of the halberd is a sharp spear tip. There is a crescent-shaped blade on both sides of the halberd, which is connected to the spear tip through two small branches. The halberd with only one crescent blade is called the Qinglong halberd, and the two crescent blades are called the Square Tian halberd. This halberd is also decorated with paintings, so it is called the Square Tian Hua halberd. This halberd combines the functions of light and heavy weapons, and can compete with heavy weapons such as bones, hammers, boring, etc., and can also compete with light weapons such as spears, guns, and knives to make moves.
Lu Bu reached out and stroked Fang Tian's painting halberd, feeling the cold murderous aura from the halberd, and suddenly felt a sense of peace in his heart. It is said that Lu Bu held the Fang Tian's painting halberd and was invincible in the late Han Dynasty. As long as the halberd is in hand, what's scary about me, Lu Bu? What I lack now is the Red Rabbit Horse. Lu Bu knew that Dong Zhuo had caught the sweat-blooded BMW in Xiliang, so he was looking forward to Li Su's arrival.
I just don’t know if He Jin has entered the palace rashly and was killed by eunuchs? If He Jin fails to die, Dong Zhuo dares to enter the capital by himself, and Lu Bu cannot make profits in the chaos.
Just as Lu Bu was thinking about being immersed in the spirit, he heard a heavy voice in the tent: "Qin Yi, has General Lu woken up?" Although Lu Bu is just a chief clerk now, not even a captain, let alone a general, because he is brave and invincible in Bingzhou, his colleagues call him a general. Perhaps everyone will be a general sooner or later.
Lu Bu's personal guard Qin Yi hurriedly replied: "College Captain, Lord Ding and Hao Duwei went in to see it just now, saying that General Lu had not woken up yet."
The man sighed deeply, his tone was dim: "If General Lu had something to do, I really don't know where my Bingzhou army should go? Qin Yi, you must take good care of yourself and don't let idle people disturb General Lu."
When Lu Bu heard the voice, he knew that what he had just come was Gao Shun, who was always loyal to him, and he wanted to let Gao Shun come in. However, the fact that Ding Yuan and Hao Meng woke up not long after they left was revealed, it was very bad for him, so he temporarily closed his eyes and lay there quietly.
After a while, another clear and impatient voice rang outside the tent: "Qin Yi, has my brother-in-law woken up?" Qin Yi replied: "Not yet, do you think you want to inform the general's wife?"
The man thought for a while: "Should you wait a few more days before telling my cousin. Don't tell my cousin that she is in poor health, don't let her worry too much. I believe that my brother-in-law will be lucky and will definitely be safe and sound."
Lu Bu knew that it was Wei Xu outside the door, and his wife Yan's cousin. Although he betrayed him in history, Lu Bu was already on the verge of despair at that time. It was impossible for Wei Xu to blame him for such a choice. At this time, Wei Xu was absolutely loyal to Lu Bu. Because of his friendship with fellow villagers and relatives, Lu Bu also trusted him very much and often assigned Gao Shun's troops to Wei Xu. Lu Bu will restrict Wei Xu from using it in the future, but he still has to use it. After all, Lu Bu now does not have many outstanding generals except Gao Shun and Zhang Liao.
In this way, except for Zhang Liao and Zhang Yang who are now returning to Bingzhou to recruit soldiers, other generals such as Cheng Lian, Song Xian, Xue Lan, Li Feng and others, who are all here to visit one after another, and Lu Bu is also pretending to be unconscious with his eyes closed.
Lu Bu vaguely remembered that Hou Cheng from the Eight Cavalry is still under the command of Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu, and Zang Ba, the guerrilla warfare expert in the Eight Cavalry is still under the command of Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou. I don’t know if there will be any chance to recruit these two people in the future.
