Chapter 196 Chen Gong helps Lv Bu meet the enemy
Chen Gong, who returned to his hometown, also organized ethnic groups and villagers to conduct military training with his intelligence and reputation to protect the village against the invasion of robbers and bandits. Later, by chance, he led the soldiers from the countryside to Lv Bu. Although he was dissatisfied with Lv Bu's behavior, he deeply admired Lv Bu's martial arts skills. And Lv Bu also had great respect for him. After a while, Chen Gong was determined to assist Lv Bu in governing the city and training soldiers. The strengths of managing the city and military logistics affairs.
Who has no ferocious moments in their life? Who can not make mistakes? The same coldness, the same cruelty, and Cao Cao's ferocity was invisibly enlarged in Chen Gong's heart, so he chose to turn to Lv Bu, who was not as famous as Cao Cao. In his opinion: it is also ferocious, equally unreasonable, and equally incurable. Why don't he follow Lv Bu, who is the best in martial arts? Compared with Lv Bu's martial arts skills, Cao Cao is far worse...
In the Three Kingdoms, at least half of the final tragic fate of characters like Chen Gong is caused by themselves. In fact, Chen Gong should realize that no matter how high his martial arts skills are, it is also a personal behavior. With the safety and safety of the people and efforts to stabilize the world, he needs the comprehensive quality of a person. Compared with Cao Cao, Lv Bu and Cao Cao: Cao Cao is a talented politician, military strategist, and writer, and Lv Bu is just a handsome man with a contented personality; he is also eating and drinking salad, arrogance, arrogance, and desire. The quality and ambition of the two determine the essence of these phenomena are different. Eagles sometimes fly lower than hens, but hens can never fly to absolute heights like eagles!
In a word, Chen Gong has made a mistake that ordinary people are prone to make: he does not recognize the people around him and the people in his eyes, and does not admit how powerful the familiar characters are. His focus is on the shortcomings of such characters, and he falls into the quagmire of "no great man in the eyes of servants". He can't extricate himself!
One leaf is blind, and you can't see everything; two beans plug your ears and don't listen to the thunder. To put it bluntly, it's like a market slang: the blind man is not afraid of sealing his eyes, and the deaf is not afraid of thunder. In this way, Chen Gong can't see the shining quality of Cao Cao's body at all. Excellent advantages; in this way, no matter how noble the quality of Chen Gong is and how elegant he is, because he stands in the wrong position and chooses the wrong master, he is doomed to be a tragic and desolate result...
If Lv Bu is a young man in his early twenties and beats him to death, he doesn't want to face Chen Gong like a Tang monk. He is nagging all day long, like a fly. But now Lv Bu is more than 30 years old. The painful experience in the past tells him that although the counselor has no power to bind the chicken, the power of wisdom should not be underestimated. An excellent counselor is often more destructive than the army of tens of thousands of people. At the beginning, he who was brave and the cruel Dong Zhuo were fooled by the big Sima Wang Yun. In the end, the two who were like father and son turned against each other. At the beginning, Li Wei and Guo Yan of the Xiliang Legion were obedient to Jia Xuyan, the poisoner. Finally, they defeated themselves with a series of tricks such as "seducing the enemy deep" and "anti-guest" and made them withdraw from Chang'an City. .
And Wang Yun and Jia Xu are both scribes. Lv Bu can kill dozens of such scribes in one move, but in the battle of the second army, Lv Bu is not their opponent. The bloody lesson and painful experience made Lv Bu, who was with his family, deeply realize the importance of counselors. Therefore, even if Lv Bu hates Chen Gong from the bottom of his heart, he desperately needs such an internal and strategic talent as Chen Gong.
Before Chen Gong assisted Lv Bu, even if Lv Bu led the jackal soldiers to rob everywhere, Lv Bu's army had not had enough food supply. Sometimes there was an incident of the army invading the people, which made the soldiers and people in Shouchun panic, so that the military affairs and government affairs of Lv Bu's territory. I often get paralyzed. Since Chen Gong defected to Lv Bu, Lv Bu has reused Chen Gong. In just a few months, after the management of Chen Gong, the military affairs and government affairs of Lv Bu's territory have functioned normally. From then on, Lv Bu's side no longer has to work hard to rob everywhere...
Lv Bu is not afraid of any strong enemy, but he feels powerless about managing a city, just like impotence. This shows that Lv Bu is a person with distinct advantages and disadvantages. Although Lv Bu appreciates Chen Gong's talent, he also hates Chen Gong's preaching. He can be said to love and hate Chen Gong. In order to avoid Chen Gong's personality challenging his temper, he killed Chen Gong in anger, which is also an important reason why Lv Bu led his army to station in Yunlong Valley.
Because of his complex feelings for Chen Gong, in the face of Chen Gong's own request, even if Lv Bu felt extremely unhappy, he still suppressed his desire, boredom, casually wore a dress, and then called Chen Gong to enter the camp.
Chen Gong quickly entered the tent. After saluteing Lv Bu, he went to the table and knelt down, and then leaned down to Lv Bu and whispered, "Wen Hou, according to reliable information, Cao Cao will send 100,000 troops to attack Xuzhou on a day."
At this time, the beads of sweat on Chen Gong's forehead fell on the mahogany table, which shows that Chen Gong's hard work and speed all the way. When Lv Bu heard the words, he couldn't help taking a breath. He looked at Chen Gong, who was out of breath, with a stunned face and said slowly, "Chen, don't drive, how is it possible? Cao Cao didn't attack Yuan Shu, who usurped the power of the dynasty. Why did he attack me? Is he out of his mind? ..."
When Chen Gong heard the words, he explained to Lv Bu with a wry smile on his face, "Oh, Wenhou, a few days ago, it was rumored in Xuzhou that Wen Hou had secretly joined the Yuan Shu Group and became a general under Yuan Shu's command... And Wen Hou was angry and admitted it, which gave Cao Cao an excuse to lead troops to attack Wen Hou. Of course, even if Cao Cao's move is famous, there is also a suspicion of private revenge: after all, a few days ago, the Marquis of Wen defeated Cao's army and occupied Cao Cao's old nest Guzhou City..."
Suching of Lv Bu's brilliant victory this time, thinking of Cao Cao's defeat and being ashamed and angry, Chen Gong's heart was as sweet as eating honey!
"Oh, Lord Chen, how do you know that Cao thieves must take the lead in attacking Xuzhou instead of Shouchun? Is it possible that in the eyes of Cao thieves, I am a soft persimmon?!" Lv Bu asked with a questioning face. Lv Bu's expression shows that he has forgotten the victory, and he still vaguely remembers all kinds of feelings of Mrs. Liu Bei in his heart...
"Wen Hou, to tell you the truth, his subordinates once had a life-saving kindness to Xun Yu, a counselor under Cao Cao's command. Now, in order to repay the original life-saving kindness, he secretly notified Cao Cao's military plan to his subordinates! He advised his subordinates to leave Xuzhou as soon as possible... Wen Hou, you should make plans early..." Chen Gong thought for a moment and told Lv Bu his channel to obtain information. I don't know why, Chen Gong couldn't wait to give his heart to Lv Bu in the face of Lv Bu. Chen Gong didn't understand where his mood came from. Is it loyalty to Lv Bu? Or don't you want Cao Cao's military operation to succeed? ... Chen Gong is also puzzled in his heart.
"Oh, 100,000 troops? Are there so many soldiers in Cao thieves? In the face of the crisis, Lv Bu quickly calmed down. He said carelessly, "Come on, Chen, you don't have to worry. This time, I must let Cao Thief come back!" Although his Qingzhou soldiers fought bravely, they were not the opponent of Xiliang Iron Horse.
"Wen Hou, but Cao Cao's side has a continuous stone thrower. In case Cao Cao uses this new siege weapon on the battlefield, how can we deal with it..." Chen Gong raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead and said with a worried expression.
"Use a stone thrower to deal with the iron cavalry? How is that possible? As far as I know, the stone thrower is just a sharp weapon to attack the city. The stone thrower is used to deal with the iron cavalry, and an iron cavalry charge also crushed the stone thrower position..." Lv Bu shook his head with contempt and said.
"Others may not, but the treacherous Cao Cao may do this... Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case!" Chen Gong admits that he knows Cao Cao very well.
"Ha ha, Chen, don't drive, you don't have to worry! In the open place, even a continuous catapulator will not cause much damage to the Iron Cavalry! Don't worry, Chen. You just need to manage Xuzhou City and Shouchun City for me, and leave the affairs of the enemy to me to deal with!" Lv Bu said with an extremely relaxed expression. No matter how uncertain the future is, Lv Bu always shows the demeanor of the commander-in-chief of the army! This is one of the good ways to stabilize the morale of the army and improve morale.
Chen Gong knows the field advantage of Xiliang Iron Cavalry, which is also an important reason why Lv Bu does not station his army in the city. Guard the city with iron cavalry? That's simply killing a cow with a knife and a chicken. Lv Bu won't do such a stupid thing. Therefore, Lv Bu doesn't like to defend the city, but likes to plunder everywhere. He is also proficient in 500 miles a day. This is the innate advantage of cavalry.
"Well, as long as Wen Hou believes in his report, he will be satisfied. He just hopes that Wen Hou will prepare early and don't be caught off guard by Cao Cao!" At this time, Chen Gong's hanging heart finally fell into his stomach.
"Don't drive, Chen, thank you for your hard work! Tonight, the lord will rest in the camp!" Lv Bu rarely said some words of concern to his subordinates.
"Wen Hou, I have to rush back to Xuzhou overnight! Wen Hou, you must take advantage of the favorable terrain of Xuzhou to give Cao Jun a blow..." Chen Gong said fervorously again.
"Ha ha, thank you for reminding me. Now I also know the truth of achieving the greatest victory with the least troops. Chen Beiqi, do you have any good strategy to deal with the invasion of Cao thieves?!" At this time, Lv Bu was really thinking about how to deal with Cao Cao's invasion. At this time, he also wanted to listen to Chen Gong's high theory.
Chen Gong felt that Lv Bu was different from before. Now Lv Bu can patiently listen to other people's opinions. In the past, if anyone dared to raise Lv Bu's opinions, Lv Bu would be extremely ugly on the scene. He either expelled the person who made the opinion or threw his sleeve away. It's just that Chen Gong doesn't know that the situation in the world is changing rapidly, and the crisis is everywhere. It's too late for Lv Bu to change...
Chen Gong took out the military map, spread it on the table, and then pointed to Yunlong Valley and said, "Wen Hou, I thought that rolling stones were arranged on the top of the second side of Yunlong Valley, and ambush Cao Jun, who was invading here. I don't know what Wenhou's mind?"
According to Lv Bu's nature, he disdains to use tricks to deal with the enemy. He likes to fight the enemy face to face on the battlefield. But now, he also knows how to deal with the enemy with the help of innate time and place.
"Well, I also have such a plan! Chen, don't drive. Wen Hou will leave the task of arranging the fortifications to you!" Lv Bu stared at Chen Gong and said with a moved expression.
"Wenhou, I must complete the fortifications of Yunlongling and Xuzhou City as soon as possible. As long as we are united, Cao's army will definitely return without success... Wenhou, I will leave!" After Chen Gongyan, he got up and said goodbye.
"Chen, don't drive, I won't be far away!" Lv Bu also stood up and arched his hand and said. Lv Bu is a whole head taller than Chen Gong.
In the past, Lv Bu didn't like to look at the map, and the iron cavalry he led did not want the map: as long as he was in an open place, there would be no invincible enemy, even if he fought against the world's first attack array - "fall into the camp".
At this time, he turned over the map with patience. While staring at the location of Yunlongling on the map, he thought in his heart how to give Cao Jun a power: how to take the initiative to attack and catch Cao Jun off guard.
In the early morning of the next day, under the personal arrangement of Chen Gong, he sent dozens of scouts to block the area centered on Yunlongling, with a radiation range of 50 miles around him. Then, Chen Gong issued a corvée order to mobilise 100,000 young and middle-aged workers from Xuzhou City to Yunlong Valley. In the meticulous work of 100,000 workers, in just one day, the mountains on the two sides of Yunlong Valley were orderly piled up with rolling stones.
Countless rolling woods are covered with wax oil, and they are close to the edge of the mountains. Take advantage of the situation, only two people can push it down the mountain. In the middle of the rolling wood pile is a pile of stones.
