"Fengxian, what do you think? Do we need to take action? Their camp level has never been high. We have seen this in the past few days. As long as we kill their scouts quickly, we will definitely give them a hard blow."
"Okay Zixiao, now is not the time to take action. Although we can definitely cause some trouble to the enemy, how many people can we invest? If we invest more, the enemy will know that we are soldiers from Xihe, but even if we don't invest much, we can still
It confuses them but also makes them alert. So for me
For us, the most important thing now is to wait, waiting for the opportunity that requires us to appear. Either we need one blow to decide the outcome, or we need to rescue Lishi City at the most critical moment. In short, we are a very important force.
It must be in line with our identity to appear at the most critical moment."
"Why do I feel that this is not something you, Lu Fengxian, would say? It seems more like the style of our Lord Prefect."
"Why, do you still think Shushi is not qualified to be your lord, or do you think our place in Xihe is not big enough?"
In the shade of a hill is the temporary camp of the Xihe light cavalry and horse archers led by Lu Bu. Although it only lasted a few days and only a few low-intensity battles were fought, it was a rare event for these soldiers.
understanding, so besides having to go out on patrol at this time, everyone is either busy communicating or focusing on their own understanding.
As for the generals, Qianzhao was taken away by Cao Xing for internship. Zhang Xiu and Cheng Lian were having a silent contest. As the leader of this team, Lu Bu and Cao Ren were studying the next steps of this army together.
action goals.
In fact, Lu Bu originally preferred to complete this work with Zhang Xiu or Qian Zhao. After all, although these two people have no experience in fighting, they have great prospects for development, especially Qian Zhao. Lu Bu thinks that the other party is a pretty good both.
A little guy with great potential who can use his brain and has a keen sense of smell on the battlefield.
, if you train carefully, maybe you can be on your own in five years. As for Zhang Xiu, he prefers a battlefield warrior like Lu Bu. However, because he is still with Tong Yuan at a young age, although his martial arts are very outstanding, he will not be able to fight on the battlefield.
However, there is insufficient accumulation of experience, so it will take longer.
However, Qian Zhao is still young after all, so the most important thing is not to learn the knowledge of commanding the entire army, but how to maximize the effectiveness of his cavalry profession, become a qualified captain of the arms, and stand out in the war. This is because of this
, Lu Bu left it in the hands of Cao Xing, who had far more time and patience than he did. After several missions, Lu Bu could clearly feel the other party's growth, and even in some aspects, he was involved in the task.
Zhao is already on the verge of surpassing his master, Cao Xing.
Zhang Xiu's situation is similar to Cao Xing's. Although Zhang Xiu, who has followed Tong Yuan for many years in the training of light cavalry, is as good as Lu Bu, but in terms of marching combat, Zhang Xiu's only experience before joining Li Shushi's army was the Yellow Turban
During the chaos, he formed volunteers with the boys in his hometown and later joined his uncle's army to follow Dong Zhuo and fight a defeated battle.
Zhang Xiu knew very well what he lacked, or even if he didn't know it, Tong Yuan had asked him some questions in this regard, so Zhang Xiu's goal at this time was to become a pioneer officer like Cheng Lian. As for the commander-in-chief,
Zhang Xiu is not in a hurry.
So Lu Bu finally had to discuss it with Cao Ren, a guy who was still outside Li Shushan's system.
Of course, Lu Bu can actually act arbitrarily. After all, he not only has the power but also the ability. But in order to have more people around Li Shushi who can be used easily, Lu Bu doesn't mind educating some people who he thinks are very useful.
A seedling with potential. So from here we can also see that Cao Ren is considered a potential stock in Lu Bu's eyes.
But what made Lu Bu slightly concerned was that Cao Ren's identification with Li Shushi seemed to be very limited, and he was not as devoted to Li Shushi's "great cause" as his younger brother Cao Chun. Although he was very good at treating people and things.
He is irresistible in appearance and generous in person, but he always inadvertently maintains a certain distance from Li Shushi's other subordinates.
Compared to others, Lu Bu clearly knew that Li Shushi was not optimistic about the future of the Han Dynasty, and the current war situation seemed to confirm Li Shushi's inference, so he, Lu Bu, still had some ideas.
Perhaps he, Lu Bu, does not have the ability to become a monarch. At least he is familiar with the entrepreneurial story of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty or the uprising experience of Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty. Lu Bu clearly understands that he is definitely not in a position to compete with him. In other words, for him,
In other words, being able to ride the best Wuzui horse at that time like Xiang Yu during the day and the most beautiful Yu Ji at night may be his greatest pleasure. Of course, if he can meet an opponent like Xiang Yu on the battlefield,
That would be more perfect.
Of course, in Lu Bu's view, the descendants of red rabbit horses and bloody horses are definitely better than Xiang Yu's Wuzui horses. Although his wife is not up to the level of Yu Ji, she has gone through many hardships to get where she is today, and can rival her.
Although I haven’t found an opponent
Yes, but the potential newcomers under Li Shushi's command are enough to satisfy Lu Bu. Not to mention that although Li Shushi, the lord, does not have much ambition, he is still easy to get along with, and there is no need to worry about being plotted against.
Because of this, Lu Bu was very sensitive to Cao Ren, who had always been outside the system. Cao Ren was different from Lu Zhi and Yan Zhong. Although Lu Zhi was loyal to the Han, he had actually been excluded from the core political circle of the Han.
Liu Hong trusted Lu Zhi's loyalty and ability and sent him to Xihe, but
As long as Li Shushi has no clear intention to rebel, Lu Zhi may not interfere too much with some of Li Shushi's self-protection behaviors. As for Yan Zhong, he is a being who is much less loyal than Lu Zhi. He is loyal.
It was only the big Han who wanted them. As for the emperor and the eunuchs, he really wanted to change them.
Cao Ren is different. Although his family is not as good as the Runan Yuan family, Runan Xu family and other wealthy families in Guandong, it is still a first-class family that can secure two thousand dan from generation to generation. Think about the Xiahou family in the same county.
And powerful people like Xu Chu want to make a fortune
Zhandu needs to rely on him to varying degrees to know the depth of his strength. So if Cao Ren uses a guy with no background like Li Shushi as a stepping stone, Li Shushi may have basically no ability to resist. As for Cao Chun, he can be an undercover agent.
Don't look at Lu Bu's stupid appearance, but you have to admit that this beast has beast-like intuition and an instinctive sense of any danger. What's more, now that he is on the road to the top, his intuition has not improved because of
Worn away by drinking and sex, coupled with what he heard and felt following Ding Yuan in his early years, Lu Bu was definitely not as simple and straightforward as he seemed.
But think about it, if his relative ⑨-chan broke out, wouldn't he be a very bright existence? And Lu Bu is probably one-third stronger than ⑨-chan. One-third, that's quite a big gap.
Mouth!
However, after a few days of running-in, the situation has changed a lot. Both Lu Bu and Cao Ren have a new understanding of each other, and at the same time some misunderstandings between them have been eliminated.
Yes, there was a misunderstanding between each other. Because Cao Ren led his army and had a fierce battle with Li Shushi, who was still in the Yellow Turban Army camp at that time, which directly led to Cao Ren's younger brother Cao Chun having to fall into the hands of Li Shushi, although the more important thing was
The reason is that a young shota who had just begun to have a love affair was seduced by a certain lolita with an extremely powerful aura.
However, it is precisely because of this that Cao Ren is quite wary of Li Shushi and his subordinates. It is also because of this that he handed over his reorganized troops to his younger brother who "went deep into the tiger's den". Moreover, in Cao Ren's understanding, he was a bit old-fashioned.
But the younger brother who is quite capable has to waste his youth in such a place with no future. It must be because the other party used some shady means to make his younger brother unable to resist, just like before.
So he hopes that his younger brother can at least have the means to protect himself. After all, he grew up listening to his parents telling stories about the terrible barbarians in the border areas. Although the two of them separated after their father died, but for a young man like him,
The younger brother Cao Ren, who is light-hearted, studious and motivated, has always been proud and proud. However, if Cao Ren knows that his younger brother has betrayed his brother's good intentions as soon as he stepped out of front, I don't know how Cao Ren would feel.
But after actually fighting side by side with Lu Bu and others, Cao Ren realized that maybe he didn't understand these people.
Lu Bu may indeed be a lonely and arrogant person like a lone wolf in the prairie, but on the battlefield he is a good comrade who can trust his back.
Cao Ren still remembers how he soothed his nervousness when he first set foot on the grassland battlefield with his stern but caring words. He can't forget when they dressed up as horse thieves and attacked the Jieren troops, because
Due to his mistake, he was almost surrounded by the enemy. He had already felt the unwillingness of the general who was the god of death. However, in the end, he only heard the sound of a weapon tearing into flesh and the words "Boy, don't waste time on the battlefield."
"You are seeking death," he yelled.
Cao Ren once asked Lu Bu afterwards. At that time, because of his own mistakes, the team had been surrounded. Wasn't it the best choice to abandon himself with almost no hope of survival and lead most of the people to break out of the encirclement?
Lu Bu glanced at Cao Ren with contempt, and then said: "Boy, I emphasize discipline before attacking to reduce the possibility of fools like you making mistakes. But you must also remember that on the battlefield, there will always be more changes than planned.
, so instead of blaming what is right and what is wrong, it is better to think about how to face it better and not give up any possible opportunity easily."
"And..." Lu Bu squinted his eyes and stared at Cao Ren, making Cao Ren feel like he had fallen into an ice cellar. Coupled with the cold wind blowing around him, the atmosphere was full, "On the battlefield, no power can compare.
The power to survive, but even the power to survive is not as good as the power to survive together with your comrades. Believe in your comrades and help your comrades. Understand? Boy!"
"Is this a real army? It is indeed a little different from a ranger like me."
Watching Cheng Lian joking with Lu Bu while trying hard to knock him down, watching the determined follower Cao Xing learning archery skills, watching Zhang bragging and spanking with ordinary soldiers by the fire.
Xiu. Cao Ren felt that although he was still not optimistic about Li Shushi's political future, he had already fallen in love with this place and this young team.
"I really hope that we will always have the opportunity to fight side by side."
