Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 125 Calculation

"Truce?" Xiang Yu looked at Li Shiqi, who came to lobby at the Chu army camp, and looked at him.

Li Shiqi's scalp was a little numb. It would be difficult for anyone to be truly calm when facing Xiang Yu's gaze, but his face was calm and composed: "Yes, King Xiang, this Central Plains can no longer withstand the flames of war. Wei The king cares about the people of Li, and hopes that you and I can have a temporary truce, so that the people can catch up with this year's spring plowing, and give them a moment of respite!"

There are no natural dangers in the Central Plains campaign. Basically, they intersect and outflank each other. It is normal for the Chu army to appear behind Lu Bu or the Qin army to appear behind the Chu army. The area of ​​influence is almost from the Huai River to the Dahe River.

This kind of full-blown battle is extremely labor-intensive for both Lu Bu and Xiang Yu, because they have to find ways to find the enemy's weaknesses, and at the same time, they cannot let the enemy find their own weaknesses. The Central Plains has almost become a chessboard, everywhere It was a move made by both sides, and it also made it difficult for the people to cultivate themselves.

"Common people?" Xiang Yu frowned. Lu Bu was also a lifelong hero, so why did he care about this? When the world is peaceful, it will naturally have a destination. How can this war care about the life and death of these people?

This concept runs through Xiang Yu's entire military career, which is why he was able to massacre cities and intimidate him without hesitation. It is precisely because of his indifference to the lowest common people that others see the overlord's invincibility and heroism, but for the lowest level, For the people at the bottom, such a hegemon is not good news.

Xiang Yu shook his head, mocking Lu Bu's womanly kindness in his heart, and looked at Li Shiqi and said, "I remember that you used to be a subordinate of my brother Liu Bang."

"That's right." Li Shiqi nodded and said, "Pei Gong treats me well, but compared to all the people in the world, even if I am burdened with infamy, I still hope to be able to give the people of the Central Plains a chance to breathe."

"It's rare that Lu Bu took the initiative to propose a truce." Xiang Yu thought for a while, waved his hand and said, "You go down first."

"Resign." Li Shiqi didn't say much. Anyway, he didn't expect to finish the matter in one day. On the contrary, the longer the time, the better it would be for him, and the more opportunities he would have to use alienation tactics. He immediately gave Xiang Yu a salute. , turned and left.

"What do you think, Yafu?" Xiang Yu looked at Fan Zeng. He always felt that Li Shiqi didn't hold his shit in well.

"It's hard to tell the truth from the truth, but Lu Bu does take good care of the people. This statement is reasonable." Fan Zeng groped his beard and thought.

After fighting for more than a year, not only the people were tired, but the Qin and Chu armies were also tired. The two sides were in a stalemate. Although Lu Bu had an advantage, it was not obvious. Xiang Yu was slightly at a disadvantage, but on the local battlefield, Xiang Yu almost They were crushing him all the way. Unless Lu Bu took action himself, none of his generals could be his opponent.

"I think a truce is not impossible. The soldiers are quite tired." Xiang Yu frowned and said: "Now the ground is full of flowers. I don't even know where our army is occupying and where is the Qin army's territory. If it weren't for Yafu keeps sending people to tell me, I don’t even know which direction to fight!”

"Let's take a look first, but the war cannot stop until the truce is reached. Even if a truce is really necessary, we need to carefully discuss where to draw the boundary and how long it will stop. In addition, we must prevent Lu Bu from tearing up the alliance." Fan Zeng reminded.

"Don't worry, Father, I know." Xiang Yu nodded.

Fan Zeng looked at Xiang Yu and nodded with satisfaction. In fact, Xiang Yu who calmed down was very powerful, but this bastard was easily angered by others. An angered Xiang Yu was invincible on the battlefield, but he would also often bring disaster to his own side. .

In the next few days, Li Shiqi visited the generals in the Chu camp every day, in the name of lobbying, but in fact, his words aroused their suspicion of Fan Zeng, but it was not obvious and no one noticed it.

Xiao He didn't care about these people. Xiang Yu himself had a strong personal charm. If he wanted to alienate these people from Xiang Yu, it was useless to alienate him directly. Xiao He wanted to build momentum among the Chu army, so he pretended to be Li Shiqi. The entourage of Xiao He was very generous and gave some gifts to everyone.

Then he drank with another person tomorrow and talked about the relationship between him and Fan Zeng. In short, he said that Fan Zeng had a relationship with Lu Bu, and that Lu Bu once called Fan Zeng's name when he was drunk.

These pieces of information are all drawn in fragments, and it would be a bit ridiculous to present them individually, but the most troublesome thing is these fragmented pieces of information. Two or three pieces of information are put together to form a short story, and they can be combined randomly.

Of course, this alone is not enough to drive a wedge between Xiang Yu and Fan Zeng. Other evidence is needed.

However, because of these financial openings, when people remember Xiao He, they have more or less vague memories of this information, and the rest is left to ferment.

Xiao He's planning ability is still very strong. Li Shiqi lobbied the upper-level generals of the Chu army, but it had no great effect. In the end, he could only go back with the peace agreement.

Xiang Yu asked both sides to put back all the generals who could not catch the other side. Lu Bu naturally agreed, but it still had to be discussed where to draw the boundary. However, the initial intention was reached, and Lu Bu asked Li Shiqi to go back again. , let’s release the hostages first.

Xiao He did not follow him this time. Instead, he arranged for the army here. He did not arrange anyone. He just spread the news among the army that Lu Bu and Fan Zeng had an old saying. If the Chu army is defeated in the future, Fan Zeng will have a good future. Naturally, there will be people. An couldn't help but ask the prisoners.

In this way, the second step is completed. This step will cause rumors to spread in Chu camp. After this step, it is time for Chu army envoys to come to Lu Bu.

Li Shiqi had been active in the Chu army for a long time but failed to accomplish what Xiao He had basically accomplished in his own camp. The envoy from the Chu army came over. At first, Xiao He treated Fan Zeng warmly, but after asking about Fan Zeng's current situation, he learned that the envoy was sent by Xiang Yu. After he was sent by Fan Zeng, his face immediately changed. The good wine and food were gone, and the smile on his face was diminished. In short, he made the other party feel very uncomfortable no matter where he was.

This kind of thing is something that no one can swallow. In the end, without telling what happened next, with Lu Bu's new request and full of anger, the envoy immediately returned to the Chu camp and told Xiang Yu what happened to Lu Bu. Read it again.

In fact, when rumors began to appear in the army, neither Xiang Yu nor Fan Zeng paid much attention to it. Xiang Yu believed in Fan Zeng, but what he did made three people become tigers, and everyone's opinion was gold. When the captured generals came back and said this, Xiang Yu began to waver. Yes, he asked Fan Zeng cautiously, and was naturally scolded by Fan Zeng.

Originally, it was very hard to accept being distrusted, especially when the person you treat wholeheartedly did not trust you, and it would be uncomfortable for anyone. This kind of emotion becomes more uncomfortable the closer you are.

Xiang Yu retreated angrily, but the seeds were planted until he was sent to discuss the final issue with Lu Bu. The results he brought back made Xiang Yu furious. This time he came directly to question Fan Zeng.

This time, Xiang Yu did not retreat in the face of Fan Zeng's rage. He just asked Fan Zeng to prove his innocence. But how to prove this? The most important thing is that Xiang Yu already has distrust in his heart.

What a Lu Bu!

At this moment, Fan Zeng looked at Xiang Yu. He knew Xiang Yu very well. When he showed this look, it meant that he had believed those rumors.

This is the opponent's strategy. Fan Zeng knows it very well. It seems to be a conspiracy, but in fact it is a conspiracy. It is not that the strategy is powerful, but that the opponent has calculated the personalities of himself and Xiang Yu. Xiang Yu is already suspicious, and he is not an ordinary person. He was suspicious, but he didn't bother to explain, and he couldn't bear the grievance.

"Okay! Okay! Okay!" Fan Zeng said three good words in a row. This plan is interconnected. It's really good. He and Xiang Yu have been friends for many years, and they don't even know who he is. It's really good. Besides... I'm afraid of this battle. It’s coming to an end, that’s fine!

"Just take care of yourself." With that desolation, Fan Zeng left without looking at Xiang Yu again. Xiang Yu suddenly felt that something was missing, but after the words were spoken, his pride did not allow him to keep this old man.

Just like that, Fan Zeng left, and Xiang Yu drank in depression all day. He didn't fall into a deep sleep until Yu Ji came to persuade him.

However, when the news of Fan Zeng's departure came back, Lu Bu was overjoyed.

"King Wei, since we haven't made a peace treaty yet, why not attack directly?" Zhang Han stood up and clasped his fists at Lu Bu.

"Don't worry, the war has to stop. Winning or losing is not at this moment. Let's go and find out where Fan Zeng went?" Lu Bu shook his head. Seeing that spring plowing was about to arrive, Xiang Yu would be lame as soon as Fan Zeng left. Legs, but it's not over yet, this is just the beginning. Fan Zeng's departure has left half of Xiang Yu's backbone missing. After the war is temporarily gone, their problems will be unearthed one by one, causing Xiang Yu to become internally divided. When the war starts again, Xiang Yu will be defeated.

When Zhang Han heard this, he suddenly felt a little sad for Xiang Yu.

And then, Lu Bu didn't bother. Without Fan Zeng to check, it became much easier to drive a wedge between Xiang Yu and his subordinates. This time, it was Zhong Limei who drove a wedge between Lu Bu and Fan Zeng. He was the smartest person under Fan Zeng. He was also loyal to Xiang Yu, but even Fan Zeng could doubt him, let alone Zhong Limei. Soon, under Lu Bu's methods, the monarch and his ministers became alienated, and Xiang Yu no longer believed in Zhong Limei. Although Zhong Limei did not leave, his suggestions It is difficult to get Xiang Yu's attention.

At this point, the two talents within Xiang Yu who could provide Xiang Yu with far-sighted opinions were alienated by Lu Bu. After Xiang Yu returned to Pengcheng, without Fan Zeng's control and without the pressure brought by Lu Bu, he stayed with Yu Ji all day long. , and paid less attention to business. It was not until the period agreed upon by both parties passed and Lu Bu took action again that Xiang Yu woke up from a dream and set foot on the battlefield again.

But this time, without Fan Zeng's guidance, Xiang Yu was obviously struggling. He was still brave and invincible on the frontal battlefield, but outside the frontal battlefield, he was dismembered by Lu Bu. In this battle, Xiang Yu's disadvantage suddenly became very obvious. .
