Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Chapter 172 Undercurrent in Guanzhong

No one can say when the opportunity Lu Bu was waiting for will appear, but the undercurrent in Guanzhong began to surge after Lu Bu left Chang'an, and time passed to Chang'an after Lu Bu left.

"Gongye, what do you mean?" Shisun Rui looked at Zheng Tai in confusion. This time Lu Bu left, no one thought Lu Bu would win. This is a great opportunity. As soon as Lu Bu loses, Yuan Shu will be recruited immediately. , assisting the emperor to revitalize the world.

But how? Scholar Sun Rui could manage the local area and sort out people's livelihood, but when it came to making suggestions, he was far inferior to Zheng Tai. When Wang Yun came to power, Zheng Tai immediately divided Niu Fu, Dong Yue and Duan Xuan who were most likely to become threats.

If Wang Yun hadn't been stubborn, how could there have been a scene like Lu Bu's counterattack on Chang'an?

This time, Shi Sunrui had already contacted many ministers in the court. He was just waiting for Lu Bu and Yuan Shu to start a war. Chang'an immediately seized power and responded, attacking from inside and outside to completely eliminate Lu Bu.

To do this kind of thing, it is natural to need careful planning. Shisun Rui also thought of Zheng Tai immediately. He thought Zheng Tai would agree without hesitation. However, this time, Zheng Tai's attitude surprised Shisun Rui. Choose to stay out of the situation, do nothing to help each other, and be a bystander.

"Junrong..." Zheng Tai looked at Shisun Rui helplessly, and sighed: "You and I are both people who have been on the verge of life and death once. We were lucky enough to save our lives, so why should we involve ourselves again? ?”

"Are you afraid!?" Shisun Rui frowned and looked at Zheng Tai: "Back then, Dong Zhuo was not afraid of the power he had in the world, but now Lu Bu..."

"It's different!" Zheng Tai interrupted Shi Sunrui with a wry smile: "Lü Bu and Dong Zhuo are very different. Although Dong Zhuo is cruel, he also has benevolence and righteousness, but Lü Bu seems to be benevolent and righteous, but he is extremely decisive in his actions. He is not comparable to Dong Zhuo! "

The benevolence and righteousness here refers to being soft-hearted. Dong Zhuo may seem cruel, but he will compromise on the affairs of the nobles. He will give up some interests and compromise with the nobles in order to cater to the nobles. But Lu Bu is just the opposite. When they get along with each other on weekdays, Lu Bu will not A sinner will not kill easily, but he will never compromise. When it was time to take action, Lu Bu was ten times more ruthless than Dong Zhuo!

Dong Zhuo looks cruel, but is actually strong on the outside, but Lu Bu is on the contrary. If you really offend him, as long as he can't be suppressed, Lu Bu's revenge will be ten times more ferocious than Dong Zhuo's.

Zheng Tai dared to deal with Dong Zhuo, because even if Dong Zhuo won in the end, Dong Zhuo would leave them a way to survive. But Lu Bu was different. Look at what happened after he occupied Chang'an. Yu Minqiu did not commit any crime, but nearly half of the Guanzhong gentry were killed by Lu Bu. , that’s not showing any emotion at all.

Facing Lu Bu like this, if he is not careful, the three clans will be wiped out and his bloodline will be cut off, so Zheng Tai backed down this time!

"Because of this, we should take this opportunity to exterminate the national traitors and help the Han Dynasty!" Shisun Rui frowned. He didn't understand why Zheng Tai would choose to back down at this time.

"Look for a good opportunity!" Zheng Tai shook his head and chose to refuse.

"This is a good opportunity!" Shisun Rui frowned and said: "Yuan Gonglu sent all his troops from the Jianghuai River and Huaihe River to attack. The total number of troops in Guanzhong is only 100,000. It is impossible for Lu Bu to take them all away. How can he fight with Yuan Gong? Fighting for supremacy? What’s more, we’ll seize power from behind and respond, so why worry about the big thing failing!?”

"Yuan Jiujiu may not be able to win." Zheng Tai shook his head: "Yuan Jiujiu will send troops this time, with a maximum of only 200,000 troops."

"Even two hundred thousand is enough to crush Lu Bu, why can't he win!?" Shisun Rui asked puzzledly. In this battle, if two hundred thousand beats one hundred thousand, he will definitely win.

"The more troops the better, the land of Nanyang is flat and prone to cavalry attacks. If Yuan Shu's army lacks cavalry, he will be implicated." Zheng Tai sighed, and he decided to supplement his military skills with Shisun Rui.

"Father's battles also require courage. Lu Bu fought in the south and in the north, Hulao Pass shocked the masses, and the northwest shocked the Qiang and Hu. His officers and men were all brave men. Although there were many soldiers on the road, they were not well trained and there were even fewer During the expedition, Junrong should also have seen the tiger and wolf troops under Lu Bu's command, and the road is probably no match for him!"

"This is all trivial!" Shisun Rui frowned.

"Then let's talk about righteousness. Lu Bu sent troops this time because Yuan Jiujiao detained the angel. It can be said that it is just and right, but Yuan Jiujiu sent troops because he was a minister who rebelled against the emperor! It would be better if he could win quickly. If not, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, Tao Qian and Liu Biao will both wait and see. By then it will be difficult for Yuan Gongdao to be undefeated, let alone attack Guanzhong?"

After saying that, Zheng Tairuo looked at Shisun Rui meaningfully. Yuan Shu sent troops this time to rebel against the emperor. If they welcome Yuan Shu, then if they are really investigated, they are also traitors and have lost their righteousness. This is what Zheng Tairuo One of the reasons for refusing to participate in this matter.

If the name is not right, then the words are wrong. It would be better if he can fight quickly, but with Lu Bu's ability, those who can fight him quickly in this world are usually defeated quickly. Yuan Shu seems to be powerful, but in fact There are many hidden dangers.

Moreover, Yuan Shu relied on his own power to be arrogant and ignored even the court, which really made Zheng Tai unhappy. When Wang Yun dealt with Dong Zhuo, he had some moral rights, but this time Yuan Shu sent troops without any regard for justice. It doesn't matter what Lü Bu does to the scholars, but in this matter, Lu Bu has great righteousness, and it will be difficult for Yuan Shu to win if he loses righteousness.

Shisun Rui frowned and sighed, looked at Zheng Tai and said: "But Gongye has never seen how humble the nobles in Guanzhong are under Lu Bu's rule?"

Zheng Tai nodded and said nothing. Regardless of his identity as a scholar, from the perspective of a bystander, this was done by the Guanzhong clan himself.

When Dong Zhuo was around, there were constant compromises, but of course Wang Yun and Huangfu Song, including himself, were pushing Dong Zhuo to death.

Dong Zhuo died as he wished, and now a truly ruthless person has arrived. Do you think he is uncompromising? Lu Bu has been in power for less than half a year, but the people's livelihood in Guanzhong has quickly recovered. In fact, no one can survive without the other.

Zheng Tai is also a scholar, so he naturally wants to speak for scholars. Now seems to be the time to deal with Lu Bu, but in fact if he actually takes action, he may take the initiative to hand the knife to Lu Bu and wait for him to kill him.

"Junrong, listen to my advice. This is definitely not the time to deal with Lu Bu. If you do it, you may be doomed!" Zheng Tai looked at Shisun Rui and said seriously.

Shi Sunrui shook his head, looked at Zheng Tai and said, "Gongye doesn't understand."

"What I said is not to shirk. Could it be that Junrong thought that Tai did not dare to participate in this matter because he was greedy for life and afraid of death?" Zheng Tai frowned.

"That's not what I meant. Gongye had previously made suggestions and worked hard to overthrow Dong Dong. Unfortunately, the master took all the credit, but because of this, you and I were lucky enough to escape from the liquidation. But I know that Gongye is by no means greedy for life and afraid of death. Disciple." Shisun Rui shook his head and said.

Zheng Tai felt a little ashamed, he was really afraid of death.

Shisun Rui said: "However, nothing will happen unless I don't participate. Do you know that since Lu Bu decided to launch an army to attack the highway, the scholars in this pass have secretly united. Can you persuade me or these people?"

Zheng Tai shook his head. He knew why the officers in Guan were like this. Compared to the hundreds of officials in the court, what Lu Bu moved most was their vital interests. These officers in Guan wanted Lu Bu to fall more urgently than anyone else. Drive Lu Bu out of Guanzhong, and those Longxi nobles who have lost their scholarly character!

These people have been blinded by the benefits. If he comes forward to persuade them, they may be bitten back. Why do they need to do such a thing?

"If they want to move, let them do it. Why should Junrong get involved?" Zheng Tai probably understood what Shisun Rui meant and persuaded with a wry smile.

Shisun Rui sighed and said: "Lü Bu is unethical and goes against the will of heaven. Perhaps as Gong Ye said, his energy is not exhausted yet, but he will eventually ask people to come out. If I don't come out, the Guanzhong gentry will be in disarray, and it will be even harder to defeat him. If I wait to come forward, I might have some chance of winning!"

Naturally, Shisun Rui is not the only one in the court who is preparing to do this, but since Zheng Tai does not want to participate in this matter, Shisun Rui will not inform others, firstly to prevent leaks, and secondly, to help Zheng Tai and not let others know. He got caught up in it.

When Zheng Tai heard this, he bowed solemnly and said, "Brother Junrong is very righteous!"

Shisun Rui shook his head. In fact, to put it bluntly, it was just a coup. Since Zheng Tai did not want to join, Shisun Rui did not force it. This is fine. After they fail, there will be people in the court who can continue to compete with Lu Bu. !

"Brother Junrong!" Before leaving, Zheng Tai suddenly grabbed Shi Sunrui.

"Gongye... you..." Shi Sunrui looked at Zheng Tai with some confusion. Could it be that he has changed his mind?

"I really don't want to get involved this time, but if I want to succeed, I am willing to offer you three strategies!" Zheng Tai looked at Shisun Rui and said.

"Speak quickly!" Shi Sunrui's eyes lit up and he looked at Zheng Tai and said.

"If you want to take action, don't sever ties with him in the name of Yuan Shu, otherwise it will be a success, and the teacher will be unknown!" Zheng Tai said solemnly.

Scholar Sun Rui nodded. Just now Zheng Tai told him that he had lost his intention to take action in the name of responding to Yuan Shu.

"Secondly, take Chang'an and once there, there will be chaos in the Guanzhong. At that time, the emperor's edict will be used to recruit the rebels from all walks of life. Remember, don't ask any questions. Just say that everyone except Lu Bu can be pardoned! Although Lu Bu has prestige in the army, he still has It's not enough to resist the imperial power. As long as Chang'an is captured, you will be able to command the world!" Zheng Tai looked more serious than ever when he said this. Wang Yun could be said to have died due to this move. Of course, there were other reasons as well. But this question is the main one.

Shi Sunrui nodded again: "What is this last resort?"

"If the first two steps are achieved, immediately send troops to seize Wuguan, the sooner the better. If Lu Bu's return route is cut off, then Guanzhong can be secured. Otherwise, once Lu Bu returns, the generals in Xiliang in Guanzhong may be immediately instigated by him to rebel!" Zheng Tai said in a deep voice.

As for how to fight or start an incident, Zheng Tai didn't say. He had to adapt to circumstances. It was impossible to calculate everything in advance. He didn't have the ability. But as long as he followed these three steps, there would be basically no problem.

Shi Sunrui nodded, looked at Zheng Tai and said, "Thank you very much."

"Ashamed, brother, let's go slowly!" Zheng Tai said no more, bowed to Shi Sunrui and watched Shi Sunrui leave...
