Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Is Mianzhu Pass broken just like that?

When Lu Bu received the news in Jianshan, he was also a little surprised. This Mianzhu Pass can be said to be the last barrier of Chengdu. Lu Bu was ready to attack this kind of place at a huge cost, but Mianzhu Pass was breached just like that. Zhao Wei's death in the hands of his subordinates was certainly the key to breaking the city, but Zhang Liao beat the Shu army too hard before, which caused the Shu army's morale to completely collapse as soon as Zhang Liao entered the pass.

In short, after Mianzhu pass, Lu Bu's attack on central Shu came to an end. From the beginning, Lu Bu's strategy was to go all the way to Chengdu, except that Luo County is still a dangerous place, but even if Luo County is not broken, the army It can also bypass Luo County and hit Chengdu directly.

Now that Mianzhu Pass has been defeated, Lu Bu naturally has no reason to stay in Jianshan. During this period of time, he is studying the terrain of Jianshan. The terrain here is dangerous, and it is enough to leave a thousand people to guard the rear. It does not need too many soldiers. The horses were stationed, so after Lu Bu left a thousand men to garrison the narrow road of Jianshan Mountain, he sent his troops straight to Mianzhu Pass.

"The terrain of this pass is so dangerous that there is no white water. If we attack it with ordinary methods, it may be difficult to break through it in a hurry." Lu Bu and Jia Xu came to the front of Mianzhu Pass, looked at the terrain of Mianzhu Pass, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

If it weren't for Li Yi and Pang Le's betrayal, the Mianzhu Pass would have been as difficult as Baishui if he wanted to take it. When he broke through Baishui Pass, he took a surprise attack. This move had already been used, and Zhao Wei couldn't have been unprepared, so this If you attack Baishuiguan at the beginning, and then use it at Mianzhuguan, you will treat the enemy as a fool.

Of course, even if it is not broken, the wood can already be levied to the surrounding cities, or directly felled, but the felled wood will have to be dried for a period of time before it can be used, which will take several months. , obviously not cost-effective.

"In this way, Li Yi has made a great contribution." Jia Xu nodded with a smile. Li Yi has contributed a lot to the current situation.

"It's not small, let's enter the customs." Lu Bu nodded. There is no absolutely useless person in this world. Although Li Yi's ability is average, his credit is no worse than that of Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao and the others had already received the news and came to greet him. Seeing Lu Bu, Zhang Liao smiled and said, "My lord, the last general has never failed my lord's trust."

"If you can't even do it, who else in the army can do it?" Lu Bu nodded and smiled, "Enter the pass and talk!"

"My lord, please!"

After everyone entered the pass, the traces of the battle had been cleaned up. After Zhang Liao welcomed Lv Bu into the seat, he sat down, looked at Lv Bu and said, "My lord, there is one thing that will remain unknown."

"Oh? What's the matter?" Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao. They've already hit here. What's the matter?

"The last general captured Zhang Ren three times before, but the lord has let him go before. I don't know if there is any other use. Therefore, the last general never made things difficult and let him go." Zhang Liao looked at Lu Bu, he couldn't help it. What is the significance of understanding Zhang Ren to Lu Bu, and what will be your attitude when we meet next time?

"Three times!?" Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao in astonishment, Zhang Ren still had some skills, why was he captured so easily?

"Yes, in Fu County, after the last general broke through the city, this person was organizing soldiers to resist in the city, and was taken away by the last general. Later, he broke through Mianzhu Pass to reinforce the army and stayed overnight in a Wubao. Zhang Ren was in it again. This time the Mianzhu Pass was broken..." Zhang Liao briefly explained to Lu Bu the magical fate between Zhang Ren and Zhang Liao.

Basically, Zhang Ren appeared as an insignificant person, no matter how powerful he was, it was useless without military power.

Lu Bu: "..."

If the person who said this was not Zhang Liao, Lu Bu would never believe that such nonsense would exist in this world.

"My lord, in my opinion, since Zhang Ren has been let go four times so far, if General Wen Yuan captures him again next time, let him go on. No doubt, my lord will get another good general!" Jia Xu There was also a moment of astonishment, and then he looked at Lu Bu with some amusement.

The first time I let Zhang Ren go, I didn't think so far. At that time, I just thought that this person was very capable, and wanted to use this hand to break Yan Yan's arm, causing chaos in Jiamengguan at that time, so that they could profit from it.

Unexpectedly, Yan Yan was killed by Lu Bu himself not long after, and the Jiameng Pass was also broken. Zhang Ren was naturally worthless to Lu Bu.

It's a pity that it was difficult for Zhang Liao to communicate with Lu Bu, so after Zhang Liao caught Zhang Ren again, he didn't know what to do for a while, and was afraid of ruining Lu Bu's affairs, so he let him go one after another.

But from Jia Xu's point of view, this matter is a little bit wrong. Now that he has been let go so many times, if Zhang Ren can still be trusted and reused in Shuzhong, then...it will only be easier for Shuzhong to fight.

Zhang Ren's ability is good, but no matter how powerful he is, if he is arrested and let go, if those wise men in Sichuan dare to use him, then Jia Xu has nothing to say except admiring their heart, but even if there are manpower Public opinion, what do others say?

Although Zhang Ren has good abilities, he has not yet reached the point where Shuzhong cannot fight without him, so it is impossible for anyone to use him again.

This person is already harmless to Lu Bu, if he catches him next time, Jia Xu will feel suspicious and try to recruit him, maybe it will have a miraculous effect.

Lu Bu nodded. He played it four times, and it's okay to play it again.

"The general understands." Zhang Liao suddenly realized that he was indeed one of his own!

"However, the one who has made the most contribution this time is General Li Yi!" Lu Bu looked at Li Yi and said with a smile, "The general will stay by my side. When he returns to the court, he will have his own reward."

This kind of person who can't be relieved but has special merits cannot be ignored, otherwise it will make people in Shu who could go to him in the future have scruples, but they can't really delegate power. Lu Bu can't use it with confidence. The best way is to stay in the Being around him can not only show his closeness, but also not make people feel that he is mean and ungrateful.

"Thank you, my lord!" Li Yi hurriedly thanked Lu Bu.

Pang Le, who was on the side, looked a little unhappy. Why did the credit for breaking the level fall on Li Yi alone?

And the most important thing is that Li Yi didn't say anything, just kept talking to Lu Bu to thank him, as if he forgot that he was there.

"My lord, General Wen Yuan said in his letter that there is another General Pang Le." Jia Xu saw this scene in his eyes, felt that it was almost done, and reminded Lu Bu.

"Yes!" Lu Bu tapped his head: "Look at my memory, if Wen He didn't mention it, I would have forgotten it. This is General Pang Le?"

"Exactly, the last general will see the lord!" Pang Le's expression softened a little, and he bowed to Lu Bu.

"It was my negligence. The general's contribution this time is not insignificant. He temporarily takes the post of riding captain, and other promotions will be granted after breaking through Chengdu!" Lu Bu looked at Pang Le and smiled.

After all, Li Yi still has the merit of presenting the sword mountain, and Pang Le just assisted Li Yi in capturing Mianzhu Pass. Naturally, this credit is not as great as Li Yi. The position of riding captain is basically the same as his previous position, but Lu Bu himself admitted , and made a promise that there would be a reward, which calmed Pang Le's dissatisfaction a little.

But when he stood up, he separated from Li Yi a little bit. It was agreed before that the credit should be shared equally, but now Li Yi is almost alone. In front of Lu Bu, Li Yi didn't even say a word for himself. This kind of brother... don't Worth mentioning.

This change of mentality was hard to see on the surface. Even after the meeting was over for a while, Pang Le and Li Yi might warmly call each other brothers and congratulate each other, but dissatisfaction had already been buried, and it was difficult for the two of them to be united.

Lu Bu and Jia Xu saw this scene in their eyes and smiled at each other.

It's not that Lu Bu can't tolerate people, but that Shu has not been completely pacified at the moment, and there are more and more Shu troops under Lu Bu's command. If these Shu troops form groups with each other, or if a leading figure appears, it will not be a good thing for Lu Bu.

For the Shu army in these armies, Lu Bu asked Zhang Ji to be the commander. In order to prevent Zhang Ji from being emptied, the two deputy generals, Li Yi and Pang Le, had to be divided.

Of course, this was also thanks to the tacit cooperation between Jia Xu and Lu Bu. With just one look from Lu Bu, Jia Xu probably understood what Lu Bu meant, and cooperated with Lu Bu to successfully divide the two who had just made great achievements.

And Li Yi's greed is also an important driving force. If the two people really love each other and Li Yi tried his best to benefit Pang Le, Lu Bu would really not be able to separate the two.

After a few more words between the two of them, Lu Bu said, "Next, we will attack Chengdu, but if we want to destroy Chengdu, there are some in Luo County..."

His own guards spread out the map, and Lu Bu looked at the location of Luo County on the map. Chengdu, Luo County, and Mianzhuguan were basically on the same line, and it was a hundred miles from Luo County to Chengdu.

Naturally, the large army can bypass Luo County and directly attack Chengdu, but within a distance of a hundred miles, the existence of Luo County is the biggest threat to Lv Bu's grain road. If there are enough troops here, they can even cut off Lv Bu's back route at any time, or attack directly Mianzhu Pass.

Therefore, although the journey to Chengdu is already smooth, Luo County still has to fight.

"My lord, although Luo County can bypass it, it is located next to Mianzhu Pass. If the main force of our army goes to attack Chengdu, and Luo County takes the opportunity to attack Mianzhu Pass, it will be enough to cut off our army's back!" Zhang Liao stood up and said in a deep voice. .

It would be best if Luo County could be attacked directly. If not, a general should be sent to confront the Luo County defenders to prevent the Luo County defenders from rebelling.

Lu Bu nodded, which was what he meant, looked at Li Yi and Pang Le, and said with a smile, "You two generals, do you have any countermeasures to help me break Luo County?"

Pang Le was eager to make contributions, so he stood up and clasped his fists at Lu Bu, saying, "My lord, there are two roads from Luoxian County to Chengdu, one is the main road, if Luo County blocks it, it will definitely be blocked on this road, the other is a small road, and the terrain is remote. , the last general thought that he could send an army to attack Chengdu directly, bypassing Luoxian County from the small road."

"The strategy is good, but it's better to take Luo County first." Lu Bu rubbed his temples, glanced at Jia Xu, and asked you to talk about the situation in Luo County, but didn't ask you to come up with a plan. What kind of plan is this? Xiaolu, if you know it, it is impossible for others not to know it, how could you not be on guard?

－－－－－Off Topic－－－－－

Regarding the relationship between Ding Yuan and Lu Bu, let’s talk about the time they spent together. In 188, after Zhang Yi’s death, Ding Yuan served as governor of Bingzhou. He had already gone to Hanoi to be a cavalry captain. It was during that time when Lu Bu served as his master. I personally think that he has no military power. I also talked about Zhang Yi when Lu Bu swept the Xiongnu, so I think Ding I can't be counted as Lu Bu's sponsor, because Lu Bu's status in the Bingzhou Army was not low. As for the adoptive father, I think it is even more nonsense. Of course, I personally think that everyone has different opinions. I understand, but please understand. I ha, there is no need to argue about these things that have been settled
