Chapter 814
Next, Lu Bu returned to his own camp.
Two sturdy men immediately came out to greet him.
These two were Lu Bu's right-hand men, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.
"My Lord, you returned to the camp at this time. Did you receive Dong Zhuo's military order?"
Zhang Liao, who was a deputy general and also could be considered the strategist in Lu Bu's current group, asked first.
"Wenyuan guessed right. That scoundrel Dong Zhuo told me to go and destroy the coalition's siege engines tonight."
Lu Bu said truthfully.
"My Lord, didn't you say that Dong Zhuo is a cruel and unrighteous person just like Ding Yuan? That we would eventually rebel against him one day?"
"This subordinate feels that perhaps this is the opportunity. Why don't we take advantage of the various feudal lords attacking Dong Zhuo to raise the banner of justice and establish our own foundation!"
At this time, Gao Shun beside him suddenly said something shocking.
Upon hearing this, Lu Bu's expression didn't change much; he just shook his head slightly: "110 No rush. This time the feudal lords attacking Dong Zhuo is actually a good opportunity for us to control the Xiliang Iron Cavalry!"
"Only by slowly grasping the power of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry in our hands will we have the capital to establish our own foundation."
The world says that Lu Bu is a heartless, unrighteous person with courage but no strategy, but is that really the case?
The answer, of course, is negative.
If Lu Bu were really such a person, he wouldn't have established his own foundation later.
Famous generals like Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, who are peerless in the world, wouldn't have followed him wholeheartedly either.
Whether he was cursed as a "slave of three surnames" or "recognizing a thief as a father," Lu Bu was forced to do so.
But from beginning to end, he also had his own plans.
"This time, the feudal lords attacking Dong Zhuo is the best opportunity for me, Lu Fengxian, to establish prestige and merit!"
"As long as I establish enough merit and prestige, and then use the various feudal lords to check and balance, even if I ask that old scoundrel Dong Zhuo for military power, he wouldn't dare not give it. By that time..."
Lu Bu leaned close to Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, told them his inner plan, and then a smile appeared on his face.
"So that's how it is. It seems Fengxian already has a plan in mind!"
Zhang Liao's eyes revealed admiration for Lu Bu.
With Zhang Liao's talent, he was willing to submit to Lu Bu as his lord, which was enough to show that Lu Bu was also a person with both courage and strategy.
"My Lord is wise!"
Gao Shun also looked at Lu Bu with admiration.
As expected of the lord he had chosen!
"Hahaha, two good brothers, don't flatter me."
"Now follow me to battle. I heard there is an extraordinary feudal lord in the coalition who is very brave, and even Hua Xiong is not his opponent."
"I want to see if he can take a single move under my Fangtian Halberd..."
Lu Bu walked toward the camp arrogantly.
In his eyes, he had long regarded the heroes of the world as nothing!
Zhang Liao and Gao Shun looked at each other and followed him with firm gazes.
……………………..
That night.
Su Li returned to the camp and drank and celebrated with Zhao Yun, Dian Wei, Zhao Yu, Zhang He, Pan Feng, Ju Shou, and others.
However, during the conversation.
Ju Shou said with some hidden worry: "My Lord, we might not be able to drink to our heart's content tonight."
"Eh, Gongyu, what do you mean by that?"
Su Li raised his head slightly and looked at Ju Shou.
"I feel that since Dong Zhuo's side lost Sishui Pass, they won't let it go so easily."
Ju Shou had a slight guess, "Perhaps they will tonight..."
"Could it be that they want to launch a surprise raid?"
Su Li realized.
"Exactly, My Lord!"
Ju Shou began to talk freely: "Now that the coalition has broken through Sishui Pass, Dong Zhuo's side can only defend Hulao to the death."
"And Hulao is known as a formidable pass under heaven; it's hard to take without siege engines."
"So... if I were the strategist for Dong Zhuo's side, I would definitely advise Dong Zhuo to raid the coalition tonight."
"As long as the siege engines are destroyed, we won't be able to easily take Hulao."
Ju Shou was indeed the top-notch strategist in the early Three Kingdoms period.
He directly predicted Li Ru's prediction.
"Well said. Since that's the case, Gongyu, why didn't you mention it to Alliance Leader Yuan at the victory banquet just now?"
Su Li's eyes moved slightly, and he looked at Ju Shou with a bit of cunning.
"Because you, My Lord, didn't let me speak, so I wouldn't speak."
Ju Shou replied with a smile.
"Hahaha!"
"Gongyu, as expected of you!"
Su Li also laughed.
Because both of them knew it clearly.
Even if he had spoken, Yuan Shao probably wouldn't have listened.
He might even have hoped that Dong Zhuo would send someone to raid.
That way, he could "invite the king into the urn."
However, at this moment.
Boom—!
The earth trembled.
Seeking self-subscription, seeking evaluation.
