Sima Shi has been taught by Tsukashu since he was a child. He can be said to be a master of military tactics and strategies. He knows everything, and is involved in many things including internal affairs...
However, after all, he is just starting out and his experience is a bit immature. There is nothing he can do when meeting an unreasonable old fox like Li Su.
"hehe!"
Man Chong came out and pulled down Sima Shi, and said with a smile: "Only Marquis Wen can stop the great military power of the King of Chu. My lord sincerely comes to form an alliance with Marquis Wen. It is a matter of brotherhood. Both sides are equals. There is no master or minister."
It’s better than Marquis Wen to live under someone else’s roof and let his power fall by the wayside, right?”
Wei Xu, the general of Bingzhou, said: "Marquis Wen, you can consider this..."
Another Bingzhou general, Cao Xing, also expressed his stance: "Marquis Wen, think twice!"
If Lu Bu surrenders to Chu, then their generals will obviously have their military power taken away, and they will be completely reduced to the Chu army's miscellaneous soldiers. How can they feel free and unrestrained now that they have military power?
Man Chong's proposal can maximize their interests, and the generals of Bingzhou certainly agree.
"Okay, okay..."
Listening to the quarrel among his men, Lu Bu's head was pounding and he said impatiently: "You guys go down first!"
"Please, Marquis Wen, think twice!"
Man Chong took Sima Shi with him, saluted Lu Bu, bowed and left.
All the way to the post house, Man Chong directly took Master Sima into the inner room and said with a solemn expression: "I'm afraid Lu Bu has already decided to surrender to Chu, so we have to make plans in advance!"
Master Sima's childishness faded away, and a sinister smile appeared on his face: "Master Manfu immediately went to inform my father that Lu Bu was stubborn and had no precautions at this time. If we use a detour and attack Bingzhou directly with a large army, we will definitely succeed!"
Man Chong glanced at Master Sima worriedly and said, "Why don't I stay in Jinyang City to deal with it, and Ziyuan (Sima Master's cousin) go and report your duties to Zhong in person?"
"Today at the Bingzhou court meeting, I have successfully created an image for Lu Bu, Li Su and others as a young master who is unable to bear the heavy responsibility. Because they underestimate me because of my age, they will not put up a defense. It just so happens that I am setting up in Bingzhou to bribe everyone!"
Sima Shi said loudly: "On the contrary, Lord Manfu is an important minister of the Marquis of Wei. Staying in Bingzhou at this time will inevitably arouse Lu Bu's suspicion, which is not good. Please make a decision early!"
"Okay, okay, okay! The son of a tiger and a leopard, even though it has not been written down, has the spirit of eating cattle!"
Man Chong praised Jie: "Sima Yi has given birth to a good son. Then I will take Cheng Gongwang and set off overnight. I must let my lord know about Xiliang as soon as possible!"
Liu Hao conquered Xiliang, which shocked the world!
Cao Cao is still ignorant, which is very detrimental to the planning of the overall situation!
The more Man Chong thought about it, the more he became afraid and did not dare to stay any longer. That night, he killed Cheng Gongwang and rushed out of Jinyang City on Qingqi...
...
...
On the surface, Jinyang City is still calm and calm, as usual.
In fact, the situation behind the scenes is treacherous and turbulent!
Master Sima acted like a young celebrity with a wide circle of friends, and deceived both Lu Bu and Li Su.
He negotiated privately with the Bingzhou generals, and many of the Bingzhou generals were already shaken!
Just when Master Sima was secretly feeling proud, Liu Hao's envoy finally arrived at Jinyang City in Bingzhou!
"What!? King Chu's envoy came to Jinyang City?"
Master Sima was slightly startled, but said calmly: "General Hou Cheng, you have to be careful! The King of Chu came to Xiliang, and blood | washed Liangzhou, and Xiliang's eight generals were all brave generals.
, but was implicated..."
Hou Cheng was one of the eight capable generals. He was worried that the Chu army would be unable to withstand the overwhelming force, and he was also afraid that he would lose his military power and become a salted fish.
Bingzhou Lu Bu, this ship is about to sink.
The civil and military ministers of Bingzhou are the passengers on the ship. Of course they have to find a way out for themselves...
The appearance of Master Sima undoubtedly gave him, Hou Cheng and others a reliable escape route.
...
Lu Bu warmly received Yang Xiu and Zhang Song, the envoys sent by Liu Hao, in his governor's palace.
Although Zhang Song is not amazing in appearance, he has outstanding talents, extraordinary conversation, and the bearing of a famous scholar.
Yang Xiu is not only handsome and outstanding, but also quick-witted and graceful in every move he makes. He can easily win the favor of everyone.
Yang Xiu and Zhang Song both bowed down, clasped their fists and said: "Marquis Wen's power is so powerful that it intimidates foreigners. My Lord has listed many heroes in the world. I once said that Marquis Wen is a hero of the world. I want to have a drink with Marquis Wen."
!”
"Haha? King Chu thinks so highly of me?"
Lu Bu was very happy, and his first impression of Zhang Song and Yang Xiu was very good.
Why did he return to Bingzhou?
If it weren't for Liu Hao's expulsion, there would be no place for Lu Bu in the Central Plains.
After returning to Bingzhou, Lu Bu first gathered the power of the whole state and fought a bloody battle with the Xianbei aliens. He killed the Xianbei Shanyu and drove back 200,000 grassland coalition troops!
Zhang Song's flattery just tickled Lu Bu's itch.
Li Su raised his glass and asked: "Both envoys are talented people under the command of King Chu. Do you know what King Chu's plans are in the future?"
This time it was Yang Xiu who stood up and said loudly: "My lord is working hard to govern. It happened that Han Sui's bandits were causing trouble in Xiliang, colluded with the Qiang people, and killed Ma Teng, the governor of Xiliang. In my lord's rage, he sent hundreds of thousands of troops to crush him.
To Xiliang..."
Although it was just a verbal statement, Yang Xiu's literary talent was brilliant and his voice was full of emotion, as if he were a storyteller. Lu Bu and others were so immersed in what he said that their hands were sweating!
"Within two months, my lord defeated Xiliang's 200,000 strong soldiers and defeated the Korean thieves in one battle. Now he is recruiting troops in Xiliang. If he gets 100,000 cavalry, he will immediately take over the world..."
After listening to Yang Xiu's basic explanation of Xiliang's situation, Lu Bu felt a little weak.
Before at Hulao Pass, Lu Bu had already experienced the combat effectiveness of the Chu army, and even conducted an in-depth study of Liu Hao's Chu army's strength...
Before and after the Shura battlefield, the total strength of the Chu army was at least more than 300,000!
What if he gets another hundred thousand Xiliang cavalry? Even if Cao Cao has a million soldiers, he may not be able to defeat Liu Hao!
These 100,000 veterans in Bingzhou can be said to have extraordinary combat capabilities and are among the best in the world!
But with just these 100,000 people competing against Liu Hao's powerful Chu army, it's not like an egg versus a rock...
Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Li Su quickly said: "Mr. Yang and Mr. Zhang are indeed extraordinary talents. They must be important ministers under the command of the King of Chu. Let me propose a glass of wine to you first!"
"hehe!"
Yang Xiu drank it all in one gulp and said with a cool smile: "No!"...
