Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 128 Persuasion

Mianchi Camp.

"Now that the military rations have become a problem, what should I do?" Fan Chou is really worried now. Originally, Dong Yue went to Niu Fu to hope that everyone would unite. After all, Dong Zhuo's men are qualified to take over the Xiliang Army after Dong Zhuo's death. Three, one Niu Fu, one Dong Yue and one Duan Yao.

Duan Yan is cautious by nature, and to put it bluntly, he is cowardly. Dong Zhuo has always said what he does. Although Dong Yue's surname is Dong, he has no blood relationship with Dong Zhuo. Dong Yue himself doesn't want to fight, so he went to Niu Fu's place in person. I want to discuss with Niu Fu about joining forces.

Unexpectedly, he left his head with Niu Fu after this trip. Now the Xiliang Army in Mianchi is commanded by Fan Chou and Li Meng. It's different, it can even be said that it's the opposite, and Fan Chou and Li Meng don't know which one to listen to. Now that the military rations are almost used up, what to do next, the two big bosses have been thinking about it for several days. Come up with a solution.

Li Meng looked up at Fan Chou, and shook his head a little tiredly: "Who should I ask?"

Let them go on horseback to fight, that’s no problem, but now that Dong Zhuo is dead, the Xiliang army has no leader, the court’s attitude towards them is changing day by day, and their leader is beheaded by his colleagues for no reason, how do they know what to do in this situation ?

If it doesn't work, let's disband the army and go back.

Fan Chou glared at him, and then sat cross-legged on the seat helplessly: "But if there is no more explanation, the lieutenant will eat you and me first!"

Li Meng became even more irritable when he heard the words: "Before the general left, it was decided that you would be in charge of military affairs until he came back. Why come back and ask me now?"

Fan Chou sneered and said, "Didn't you say that you were dissatisfied at the time? How about I hand over the power of the general to you now?"

"Do you want to give up military power at will!?" Li Meng naturally refused to take over this mess at this time.

Fan Chou was about to say something, but saw a small school come quickly outside the tent: "Two generals, there is an envoy from General Zhengxi outside the camp asking to see you!"

"Lu Bu?" Fan Chou and Li Meng were a little surprised. They didn't have much friendship with Lu Bu. Why did Lu Bu send someone here?

"See you?" Li Meng looked at Fan Chou. Lu Bu was not defeated by the Xiliang army. Although he had a high position, he was not as kind to Lu Bu as other Xiliang generals.

"See you." Fan Chou nodded affirmatively, "No matter what, they are all working for the grand master. Now that the grand master has died, maybe Lu Bu sent someone to discuss it because of this."

Li Meng nodded and didn't say anything else. It's this time, let alone talk about the family differences, and immediately said to the little school: "Please come to the tent to talk."

"Here!" The little school obeyed and left.

Soon, Jiang Xu came in from outside the tent with a dusty look on his face, bowed to the two of them and said, "The last general, Jiang Xu, has been added as General Zhengxi's tent general. This time, he was ordered to visit General Dong Zhonglang? But I don't know why. Is this General Dong Zhonglang?"

Fan Chou frowned and looked at Jiang Xu, "What's the matter?"

"The grand master was persecuted by traitors. My lord wants to raise troops to avenge the grand master. However, the army is small and there are few generals. I am afraid that we will not be able to win. Therefore, I sent the last general here. I am willing to assist General Dong to take over the Xiliang army and attack the traitor Wang Yun together." , to avenge the Grand Master!" Jiang Xu said: "The matter is of great importance, and General Dong Zhonglang should make a quick decision."

Unexpectedly, when Lu Bu came here, he took the initiative to surrender to Dong Yue. Fan Chou and Li Meng looked at each other with wry smiles, each sighed, shook their heads and said, "I'm afraid I will disappoint General Lu."

Jiang Xu frowned and said, "What do you mean by this? Do you think my lord is unworthy?"

Fan Chou quickly shook his head and said, "That's not true. It's a pity that my general went to Hedong a few days ago to discuss a joint venture with General Niu Fu, but he was killed by General Niu Fu for some reason. How do we agree now? Let's report back to General Lu and say General Dong has been killed, find another way out."

"This..." Jiang Xu frowned: "My lord should be on his way here at this time, why don't we discuss it after he arrives?"

Originally, Fan Chou and Li Meng were somewhat repulsive towards Lu Bu, but he came here to seek refuge, so it was unreasonable to drive him away. Besides, with one more person, could there be one more person to negotiate with? Maybe Lu Bu has some plans.

Although Lu Bu was on the same level as Niu Fu, Dong Yue, and Duan Yan in terms of official title, in the hearts of most Xiliang soldiers, he was still a foreign general after all, at least not at this time. This is why Fan Chou and Li Meng felt a little bit of sympathy when they came to seek refuge in such a crisis.

"Forget it, I'll send someone to pick it up." Fan Chou got up and said.

Li Meng also nodded, and arranged for Jiang Xu to settle down in the camp first, and wait for Lu Bu to come to see what to do next.

Early the next morning, Lü Bu came to Mianchi with his personal guards. Fan Chou and Li Meng came to greet them in person. After exchanging pleasantries, Lv Bu was welcomed into the camp.

"I heard on the way that General Dong..." After everyone was seated, Lu Bu cut to the chase, saw the two nodding, and frowned, "Did it really happen to General Niu Fu?"

"Not bad!" Fan Chou sighed.

"Why? I haven't heard of any grievances between the two of them." Lu Bu frowned.

"I heard that General Niu is good at divination. Before General Dong entered the camp, someone had a divination, and it was an ominous divination, so..." Li Meng stopped talking at the end. He felt that Niu Fu wanted to kill Dong Yue at all. Did anyone kill someone for this reason? Or kill a general at the same level as yourself?

"Ridiculous!" Lu Bu slapped the table and said angrily, "You haven't even discussed with him!?"

Fan Chou and Li Meng looked at each other when they heard the words, what do you want to say? Dong Yue is dead, and the two of them are not at the same level as Niu Fu, so how can they be held accountable? Besides, now that the army is almost running out of rations, how can they have the heart to confront Niu Fu?

"The general doesn't know something, it's because we don't want to seek justice for General Dong, it's really impossible." Fan Chou smiled wryly.

Lu Bu frowned and said, "Where does this start?"

Li Meng sighed: "At the beginning when the grand master withdrew his army, the population in the Heluo area had already withdrawn. Anyi and Huayin were fine, and there were still places to support them. However, the Mianchi area has long been uninhabited. It has always been supplied by the imperial court. Now the grand master He was killed, the imperial court ran out of food and grass, and now the food and grass in the army may not last for three days, and when the time comes, the camp will be full of mutiny, and I don't know what to do, so why bother to seek justice for General Dong?"

"Is there such a thing?" Lu Bu frowned.

"The general's intentions, we have already known, but now that General Dong is dead, the two of us can't protect ourselves, the general should find someone else." Fan Chou sighed.

"The matter has come to this, it's more time to fight. Do you two think that Wang Yun will let you go with the current appearance!?" Lu Bu looked at the two and said angrily.

"What do you mean, General?" Li Meng frowned.

"This is the latest imperial edict issued by the imperial court. Let us disband the military power in our hands and return to our hometowns." Lu Bu handed the imperial edict obtained from the imperial court to the two of them for viewing.

After the two finished watching, they looked at Lu Bu with some doubts: "It doesn't matter if you disband, the two of us can't afford to support this team now."

"You think it's just that simple?" Lu Bu said disdainfully.

Fan Chou was a little impatient, looked at Lu Bu and said, "The general has something to say, but it's okay to say it."

"If all the ministries are really disbanded and sent back to Bingzhou, and the thousands of miles of grasslands let me roam freely, even if the imperial court intends to harm me, it will be difficult to catch me. However, after you return to your hometown, if the imperial court wants to kill two of you, one pavilion chief will do!" Lu Bu pointed out. Pointing to the imperial edict, he said: "As far as I know, Wang Yun has changed the imperial edict seven times since he killed the grand master. If you suddenly regret it after you release the military power, it will be easy to kill the two of you at that time!"

Fan Chou and Li Meng's expressions suddenly changed when they heard the words, this was a question they had never thought about.

"The two generals still think that this matter has nothing to do with you?" Lu Bu asked while looking at the two of them.

"This..." Fan Chou and Li Meng looked at each other, both a little nervous.

Li Meng looked at Lu Bu and said, "Since the general knows this, he must have a solution! I hope the general will teach me!"

Lu Bu shook his head: "I came here to join General Dong in the hope of rallying everyone's strength to fight against the imperial court. Who knew that this would be the result? Alas, since the two of you have no intention of avenging the Grand Master and General Dong, Bu will not Excuse me, I can only go to discuss with General Niu, you two please be careful, then Wang Yun will not allow me to wait for these warriors."

After speaking, Lu Bu made a gesture to get up and leave.

Fan Chou hurriedly stood up and grabbed Lu Bu, saying, "General, the two of us are naturally willing to avenge the grand master, but General Dong's revenge..."

"General Niu is the grand master's son-in-law, so it's not good for us to confront General Niu with swords and soldiers?" Li Meng also chimed in.

"But he has to give an answer to this matter. If you two believe me, bring all the people and follow me to Anyi to ask Niu Fu for an explanation. No matter what, this matter cannot be left like this!" Lu Bu looked at The two said: "If people's hearts are not in harmony, how can we avenge the Grand Master!?"

"This..." Fan Chou and Li Meng still hesitated.

After all, Li Jue and Guo Si were also in Chang'an, and they might not have thought about Li Jue and Guo Si in their hearts, but if these two could betray Dong Zhuo, how would they know if they would harm themselves? This is where they hesitated.

"Heh~" Seeing this, Lu Bu couldn't help sneering, got up and wanted to leave.

"Wait a minute, general!" Fan Chou gritted his teeth and said, "The Grand Master is kind to us. Now that the Grand Master has been killed, we are looking forward and backward, but we are not as loyal as the General. Since the General has this determination, Fan Chou is willing to follow the General, but it is only 30,000 yuan. The army has only three days of food and grass left, if the general can solve the problem of food and grass, the two of us are willing to follow the general!"

Li Meng gritted his teeth and nodded when he heard the words: "Yes, if the general can solve the problem of food and grass, the general is willing to respect the general!"

The corner of Lu Bu's mouth twitched slightly, and he nodded, "Okay, since that's the case, please gather the generals and follow me across the river to Anyi to find Niu Fu for an explanation!"

"The food..." Li Meng looked at Lu Bu hesitantly.

"Don't worry, I have my own solution to the problem of food and grass! Let's dispatch troops and bring all the food and grass in Mianchi. If we don't break Chang'an, we won't come back this time!" Lu Bu got up and said.

Fan Chou and Li Meng couldn't think of a solution at this time. Since Lu Bu was willing to accept the stall, they would leave it to him. They each took orders to gather their troops to go out with Lu Bu.
