"Damn, you are so fierce, you can already afford a standard knife?"
"It can't be some rich man, right?"
"It's impossible. Currency exchange hasn't been started yet. No matter how much money there is in reality, it can't be brought in."
"Oh my god, I can't even afford an iron knife with 3 gold coins now, but he has already bought a standard knife with 18 gold coins. How can I survive!"
Looking at the envious looks around him, Lu Bu quickly put away his standard knife and strode out of the shop.
Lu Bu walked along the street to the entrance of the village. As soon as he left the village, a very beautiful and lonely Salted Fish River with fluttering willow leaves was looking around.
"Wow, boss, you are finally here. I miss you so much. Let's go upgrade now. They are already chasing us."
Lu Bu waved his hand, saw no one around, and asked in a low voice, "There is no rush to upgrade. Do you still remember what you said?"
Liuye Piaopiao pursed her lips and smiled, "Are you talking about the Battle of Yanzhou?"
Lu Bu nodded and said in a deep voice, "Cao Mengde knows that I attacked Yanzhou secretly, and now he has led his troops back from Xuzhou."
At this point, Lu Bu's tone paused for a moment, and then he continued, "I originally wanted Generals Xue and Li to go to Dongjun and form a quarrel with Puyang, waiting for work and jointly resisting Cao Mengde.
However, Gongtai proposed to go to Mount Tai to risk an ambush, what do you think?"
Liuye Piaopiao thought for a while, "Boss, do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
Lu Bu was a little unhappy, "Since I'm asking you, of course I have to listen to the truth."
Liu Ye fluttered and nodded, "Boss, in fact, from the beginning to the end, you never had a good military advisor to formulate a strategy for you. Whether it was going to Chang'an, joining Yuan Shao, or even sneaking into Yanzhou, it was just a passion, with a beginning.
There is no ending."
Hearing this, Lu Bu frowned and said, "Most of Yanzhou has fallen into my hands now. I only need to drive away Cao Mengde to completely occupy Yanzhou. Do we need any strategy?"
Liuye Piaopiao smiled slightly, "Of course, for example, after you occupy Yanzhou, how to develop and what direction you want to develop, I'm afraid you haven't thought about it, have you?
At this time, the role of an outstanding military advisor comes into play. He will make plans for you.
In addition to defeating Cao Mengde, you must also consider how to develop Yanzhou as your base to increase your own strength."
Lu Bu was originally a rebellious person, otherwise, history would not have rated him as headstrong.
At this moment, hearing Liu Ye Piaopiao's words, she felt extremely unhappy and said coldly, "I'm not listening to what you said here. I just want to know, what should I do now to defeat Cao Mengde?"
Lonely Xianyu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Boss, in fact, in the battle of Yanzhou, you lost in people's hearts and food."
"Oh!" Lu Bu turned his head and looked at the lonely Xianyu, frowning and asked, "What do you mean?"
The lonely Xianyu sighed, "Boss, first of all, the soldiers under your command are so outrageous. They burn, kill and loot everywhere, almost like bandits.
The local people in Yanzhou welcomed you at first, but when they saw that you were even more brutal than Cao Cao, they naturally stopped welcoming you."
Lu Bu snorted coldly, "What are you afraid of? As long as I have soldiers, I don't care what the people do?"
The lonely Xianyu shook his head, "If it's a good time, you can burn, kill and loot everywhere to get some food. But in the second year, the locust plague will intensify the drought and the food harvest will be poor in various places. By then, both of you will be together."
There will be a truce.
Cao Mengde had the support of Yuan Shao and the local gentry, and he used some shady methods to persevere.
But you, you have no source of food, and the most important combat force, the Bingzhou Cavalry, also lost too much in the food crisis. After several battles, the Bingzhou Cavalry was defeated. In the end, your strength is not as good as Cao Mengde, and you have failed.
It’s inevitable.”
Hearing these words, Lu Bu felt irritated and snorted coldly, "Then tell me, if Cao Mengde is coming back, should I follow Gongtai's plan and ambush him halfway?"
The lonely Xianyu nodded, "Of course this is a good idea. While Cao Cao is walking on the mountain road, you can sneak attack on him and you will definitely be able to cripple him."
Lu Bu frowned and was about to speak when Liu Ye Piao Piao suddenly said, "I don't think it's possible. We're not sure which path Cao Cao will take. If we really send someone to ambush him, it will be disadvantageous if he fails.
”
Lu Bu's eyes lit up and he asked with a smile, "Liu Ye Piao Piao, you mean to say that my method is the right one, right?"
Liu Ye Piaopiao shook her head, "According to historical records, in fact, in the beginning of the battle between you and Cao Mengde, you won more times, but later she lost half of them again and was completely defeated."
At this point, Liu Ye's fluttering tone paused for a moment, but then, without waiting for Lu Bu's answer, he continued speaking on his own.
"As I just said, you have a good strategist to formulate a big strategy for you, but you can't underestimate Chen Gong.
Although Chen Gong is not good at grand strategy, he is really good at tactics. The reason why you won many battles in the beginning is actually related to his strategies."
Hearing Liu Ye fluttering in front of him and praising Chen Gong, Lu Bu felt a little unhappy, "Does it mean that my strategy is not as good as Gongtai?"
Hearing this sentence, Lonely Xianyu and Liuye Piaopiao were stunned at the same time, and then smiled awkwardly.
Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Lu Bu's anger welled up in his heart and he roared, "How dare you insult me."
Seeing Lu Bu's murderous eyes, Lonely Xianyu was startled and waved his hands hastily, "Boss, please calm down, we didn't say you are inferior to Chen Gong."
Lu Bu snorted coldly and turned to look at the fluttering willow leaves, "You said I'm not as good as Gongtai?"
Liuye Piaopiao was also a little scared, but thinking that this was a safe zone, and that he and Lu Bu were in the same team, even if he had great abilities, there was nothing he could do about it.
Thinking of this, Liuye Piaopiao felt at ease, "Boss, if you can't even listen to what we say, it is reasonable for the Yanzhou battle to fail."
Lonely Xianyu also reacted, "Yes, you don't listen to other people's strategies, how can you win the battle? Do you think you are stronger than Zhuge Liang?"
"Zhuge Liang?"
Lu Bu was stunned, "Who is Zhuge Liang? Why haven't I heard of him? Is he really powerful?"
Looking at Lu Bu's confused eyes, the lonely Xianyu suddenly felt a sense of superiority in his heart and nodded.
"Of course you don't know, but I can tell you that Zhuge Liang is very powerful. Liu Bei relied on Zhuge Liang's strategy to form the situation of the Three Kingdoms."
