Chapter 258 Lu Zhi's Visit

"General Deng Zhan doesn't have to be polite," Li Zhong said.

It turned out that this person was the general of the Youzhou army who led the army to chase Zhang Jiao, and Deng Zhan, the leader of the tiger and leopard cavalry.

"Why is the general so embarrassed?" Seeing Deng Zhan's appearance, Li Zhong couldn't help frowning and asking.

Deng Zhan smiled awkwardly and said, "The last general was ordered to catch Zhang Jiao. He was accidentally ambushed by Zhang Jiao, the thief, and he was caught off guard, so he made it like this." After saying that, he smiled at Li Zhong.

Xu Chu behind Li Zhong saw Deng Zhan's appearance and didn't smile, but his round face turned red.

How to put it, if Deng Zhan removes his armor, he will probably be no different from a beggar.

stared at Xu Chu fiercely, and Deng Zhan said to Li Zhong, "Lord, the last general is lucky not to humiliate his life."

"Did you capture Zhang Jiao alive?" Li Zhong asked, with a trace of joy in his words.

Deng Zhan shook his head, "You killed him," Li Zhong asked doubtfully.

Deng Zhan shook his head and said, "Lord, the last general was going to capture him alive, but he drew his sword and cut himself." There seemed to be some respect for Zhang Jiao in his tone.

At this time, a soldier came in with a head wrapped in a bloody cloth.

"Lord, this is Zhang Jiao's head," Deng Zhan said to Li Zhong.

"Save this head, and I will treat it as a general in the future," Li Zhong said to Deng Zhan, but he felt a little numb when he saw this head and quickly asked someone to take him down.

"Thank you, Lord," Deng Zhan said happily.

"Well, the general is also tired. Go down and have a rest first," Li Zhong said to Deng Zhan.

After saluteing Li Zhong, Deng Zhan withdrew from the tent and never glanced at Lu Zhi, as if he didn't exist as air. Although Lu Zhi was a little blocked, he didn't say anything. He still knew much about the general's temper, especially the martial arts general. That temper is even more outrageous.

Apologetically, Li Zhong took a look at Lu Zhi and said to Lu Zhi, "I don't know what your plan is going to do next."

Lu Zhi thought for a moment and said, "Although Zhang Jiao is dead, his minion Zhang Mancheng and others are still resisting, and Zhang Jiao's nest giant deer is still under the control of the rebels, so I don't want to wave my troops north to eliminate the rebels around the giant deer area." Lu Zhi said to Li Zhong with a smile, and there is nothing strange from his face. .

Li Zhong shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's going to be a waste of time?"

"General, what does this mean?" Lu Zhi pretended to ask doubtfully. He didn't know that Li Zhong divided his troops. Now he is afraid that the yellow scarf army of the giant deer has already been wiped out by the Youzhou army. The reason for saying this is to test Li Zhong and see how he answers himself.

Old fox!

Li Zhong said to himself. At first glance, you will feel that Lu Zhi is an amiable old man. If you think so, it is probably not far from death. Such a person who has been an official for decades will not believe it without any plan to kill Li Zhong.

So Li Zhong exclaimed and asked, "Don't you know?" Obviously, he also began to pretend.

"I really don't know what the general is talking about?" or that light look, Lu Zhi made up his mind to pretend to be stupid to the end.

"It seems that the news of adults is too backward," Li Zhong shook his head and said with regret.

Lu Zhi said with a dry smile, "Hey, don't sell the key."

"Lord Han Fuhan, the pastor of Jizhou, has sent a large army to the giant deer to destroy the yellow scarf army five days ago. It is estimated that it is over now. If the adults go, won't it be a waste of time?" Li Zhong said that lying is not blushing and breathless, and he is basically a veteran.

click!

What's going on? Lu Zhi looked at Li Zhong in surprise and immediately understood Li Zhong's idea. I guess Li Zhong had already seen through that he was laughing with him, so he came to treat him in his own way. Aren't you pretending to be stupid? Then I won't tell you to make you suffer a dumb loss.

Lu Zhi smiled bitterly, but he didn't expect that he dug a hole and fell into it instead.

He smiled awkwardly. Lu Zhi didn't say anything anymore. In his opinion, it's better to say less now. Maybe he will fall into Li Zhong's trap at that time. At that time, there will not even be a place to cry, so it's not worth the loss.

As the saying goes, if you say too much, then just shut up.

Seeing Lu Zhi's appearance, Li Zhong smiled and turned to Guo Jia and said, "Feng Xiao, order to take out wine and meat to reward the soldiers. If you don't mind, please stay here to celebrate. What do you think?" Li Zhong asked.

Lu Zhi nodded and said, "Since the general is kind and I can't refuse, it's better to obey than to obey."

Li Zhong smiled and then said, "Please invite the adults to have a rest, and then send someone to invite the adults."

"Well, I'll leave first." After saying that, Lu Zhi stood up and withdrew from the big account.

"This old fox", after Lu Zhi left, Li Zhong seemed to be talking to himself.

Hearing this, Guo Jia nodded with a smile and said to Li Zhong, "Master, there is no need to worry. Although Zi Gan (Lu Zhizi) is suspicious, he can't find any evidence. Moreover, the master is still your majesty's son-in-law. I believe that Mr. Zi Gan is not the kind of person who chews his tongue."

Li Zhong took a look at Guo Jia and nodded. He admitted that what Guo Jia said was reasonable, but there was a worry in his heart, "But I always feel that something will happen. As the saying goes, paper can't wrap fire. What's the good policy for filial piety?"

After hearing this, Guo Jia lowered his head and pondered. Li Zhong saw that he did not disturb him like this, and the two sat there and meditated.

"Your Excellency", Lu Zhi's captain of the guard came to Lu Zhi's tent and shouted.

Lu Zhi nodded and said, "What can you do with unusual hair?" There was a hint of urgency in his tone.

The captain of the guard shook his head and said, "Your Excellency, I don't see anything unusual."

At this time, the captain of the guard took a few steps forward and came to Lu Zhi and said, "Your Excellency, this is not good. As the saying goes, guests don't bully the Lord. If we are known by the former general, I'm afraid it's not good for you." The captain said to Lu Zhi, as if he was advising Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhi thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, that's it. You go down first. Remember, only you and I know about this matter. Don't let a third person know, otherwise you will know the consequences," Lu Zhi said to the captain with a straight face.

"Don't worry, my subordinates are not the ones who can't control their mouths. My lord, my subordinates retreat," said the captain.

Lu Zhi nodded. After the captain left, Lu Zhi sat alone on the couch in a daze.

"Li Zhong, Li Zhong, I hope I'm wrong. If you dare to do something rebellious, I will never let you go," Lu Zhi muttered alone, and then a cold light flashed in his eyes, which was very breathtaking.

About two hours later, the banquet belonging to the Youzhou Army finally began. Soldiers sat together with a bonfire in the middle. Although it was summer, there was still a trace of coolness at night.

The soldiers also began to drink, eat meat, guessing, and storytelling, which is very harmonious.

On the other side, Li Zhong sat outside drinking and chatting with Youzhou army generals and Lu Zhi.

It feels very comfortable to drink a large bowl of meat.

Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Deng Zhan and other generals were fighting for wine while Guo Jia was drinking alone. He raised his glass to invite the bright moon. He didn't know the taste of the three people. He thought he was incompatible with the Youzhou army?

And Li Zhong drank wine with Lu Zhi, and the two chatted from time to time. Anyway, it was nonsense. Let me say that the whole quiet night seemed very incongruous in the camp of the Youzhou army, but it all showed the inner joy of the soldiers of the Youzhou army.

The banquet is almost over, and everyone will go to rest.

The next morning, Lu Zhi took his own guard to Guangping City. Li Zhong did not stop him and took a group of generals to the village gate to see Lu Zhi off.

Then the generals of the army came to Li Zhong's big account to prepare for the discussion.

"There is news of Zilong, but there is filial piety," Li Zhong asked.

Guo Jia nodded and said, "Lord, General Zilong sent a letter from Flying Pigeon, saying that everything is going well. The army has arrived at the State of Zhao, and there will be news in three days."
