Three Kingdoms: I am the Holy Son of the Yellow Turbans, my father is a wise and good teacher

Ding Yuan frowned as he looked at the bloodstained and scarred man in front of him. He was confused and puzzled.

This man turned out to be his proud adopted son Lu Bu. Ding Yuan couldn't help wondering: "What happened? Why did he end up like this?"

Lu Bu raised his head, tears flashing in his eyes, and replied in a low voice: "Adoptive father, I failed... 10,000 Bingzhou cavalry were wiped out, Wei Xu, Hou Cheng, and Song Xian were all killed in the battle, and I was the only one who escaped by luck."

Lu Bu's words were full of self-blame and regret, and his eyes revealed endless sadness and despair.

Ding Yuan's face changed drastically after hearing this. He widened his eyes and looked at Lu Bu in disbelief.

His lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but couldn't find the right words.

After a while, Ding Yuan finally regained his composure. He sighed deeply, then gently patted Lu Bu on the shoulder to express his understanding and support.

Ding Yuan comforted him, "Fengxian, victory and defeat are common in the military. Although we lost this time, we cannot be discouraged. There are always unsatisfactory times in life. What is important is how to face setbacks and learn lessons from them."

Lv Bu lowered his head and remained silent. Ding Yuan continued, "You must know that failure does not mean the end, but a new starting point. Every setback is an opportunity for growth, making us stronger and wiser."

Lv Bu slowly raised his head and stared at Ding Yuan firmly.

He seemed to have found strength and courage from his adoptive father's words.

Ding Yuan then encouraged, "Don't blame yourself too much, because victory or defeat in war does not depend entirely on personal ability. The situation on the battlefield is complex and changeable. Sometimes even if we try our best, it is difficult to avoid the fate of failure."

Lv Bu looked at Ding Yuan gratefully, with gratitude flashing in his eyes.

Ding Yuan smiled and said to Lu Bu: "We must learn to accept failure and learn from it. Failure is not a shame, on the contrary, it is a necessary step on the road to success. As long as we can learn lessons and constantly improve our own strength, we will surely achieve greater victory in the future."

Ding Yuan's words rekindled Lu Bu's fighting spirit.

He took a deep breath, straightened his body, and his eyes flashed with determination.

Ding Yuan continued to encourage: "So, Fengxian, don't be defeated by failure. Believe in your ability, stand up bravely, and meet the next challenge. Remember, failure is only temporary, and persistence and hard work will bring ultimate victory."

Lu Bu nodded gratefully, and he expressed his determination to Ding Yuan: "Don't worry, my foster father, I will not let you down. This failure is only a temporary setback. I will definitely learn lessons and will go all out in the future to live up to my mission!"

Ding Yuan smiled with relief, and he knew Lu Bu's determination and perseverance.

Ding Yuan patted Lu Bu on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Fengxian, you have shown extraordinary courage and talent. This failure is just a small episode in your life. Don't blame yourself too much." Lu Bu looked at Ding Yuan gratefully, with gratitude flashing in his eyes.

Ding Yuan continued: "I know your strength and know that you have the ability to overcome difficulties. But remember, no matter where and when, you must stay calm and cautious. On the battlefield, a moment of negligence may lead to a complete loss."

Lu Bu nodded and listened carefully to Ding Yuan's teachings.

Ding Yuan smiled and continued: "In addition, teamwork is also crucial. Establish a good relationship with the soldiers, trust each other, and fight together. The power of one person is limited, but when everyone is united, they can be invincible."

Lv Bu was deeply grateful for his foster father's teachings. He solemnly promised: "What my foster father said is very true. I will definitely keep it in mind. In the future, I will pay more attention to details, stay vigilant, and strengthen the tacit understanding and cooperation with my comrades."

Ding Yuan nodded with satisfaction and encouraged Lu Bu: "Very good, Fengxian. I believe that you will become a stronger warrior after this setback. As long as you persevere and move forward courageously, I believe you will be able to achieve great things in the future."

Lv Bu was grateful and bowed deeply to Ding Yuan to thank him. Ding Yuan gently helped Lu Bu up and encouraged him: "Go, take a good rest and adjust your condition. Tomorrow is another new day, and we still have a lot to do."

Lu Bu nodded and turned away. His heart was full of gratitude to Ding Yuan, and he also secretly vowed to repay his adoptive father's trust and love with practical actions.

Although Lu Bu had regained some confidence, Ding Yuan knew very well that Lu Bu might not be able to participate in the next battle. After all, he was so seriously injured that it would not take three or five days to recover.

......

Ding Yuan sat in the tent, looking at the map in his hand with a gloomy face, his heart was full of anxiety and uneasiness.

He knew that he had fallen into a desperate situation. If he did not take decisive action, he would probably not be able to escape the fate of failure. He took a deep breath and decided to call three generals to discuss countermeasures.

Soon after, the three generals Hao Meng, Cao Xing and Cheng Lian entered the tent.

They also had heavy expressions on their faces, and were obviously worried about the current situation.

Ding Yuan raised his head, glanced at everyone, and then slowly said: "Everyone, we are in a difficult situation now. I wonder if you have any good ideas?"

Cheng Lian spoke first: "My lord, the enemy is now powerful and our morale is low. If we force a head-on confrontation with them, it may be difficult to win. In my opinion, it is better to defend the city and wait for the opportunity to rest and wait for the opportunity."

Cheng Lian's suggestion was more conservative. He believed that the city should be defended and the city walls and city defense equipment should be relied on to resist the enemy's attack.

In this way, it is possible to save manpower and buy time to restore morale. However, this plan requires a large amount of food and grass supply, otherwise it will not be able to sustain the war.

Hao Meng then said: "Sir, although our army has suffered some setbacks, it still has the strength to fight. There are still a large number of soldiers in our army who have not been seriously injured. As long as we adjust our tactics, we may not be unable to fight the enemy."

Hao Meng's suggestion is more radical. He advocates taking the initiative to attack and find opportunities to fight a decisive battle with the Yellow Turban Army. Although the army suffered losses, he believes that victory can still be achieved by reorganizing and boosting morale.

Cao Xing proposed another strategy: "Sir, I think we can take advantage of the terrain and set up an ambush to catch the Yellow Turban Army off guard."

Cao Xing's suggestion emphasized the use of wisdom and tactics to strike the enemy in an unexpected way. He believed that setting up an ambush at a suitable location could effectively weaken the power of the Yellow Turban Army and boost our morale.
