In the evening, Lu Zhi held a banquet to celebrate his achievements and reward the soldiers of the three armies.
Liu Zhang took Huang Zhong and three others, while Liu Bei took Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to participate.
Lu Zhi sat at the head of the table and invited Liu Zhang to sit at the bottom. Liu Zhang declined several times, but Lu Zhi refused, so Liu Zhang could only sit down.
Lu Zhi's subordinate generals took their seats one by one. By the time Liu Bei took his seat, they had already reached a relatively remote location.
This greatly aroused Zhang Fei's dissatisfaction. If Liu Bei hadn't warned him again and again, there would have been another quarrel.
Lu Zhi raised his wine glass and said loudly:
"Generals, all the officers and soldiers are indispensable for defeating the yellow turban thief Zhang Jiao! I would like to toast you all first! Go for it!"
"This battle all depends on the general's planning. How dare we take credit? Respect the general, do it!"
Lu Zhi had a smile on his face and enjoyed the compliments from his subordinates.
The reason why flatterers can be loved at all times is because no one can refuse the compliments of flatterers.
Lu Zhi was no exception. He was a great scholar, and deep down he felt that he should be praised.
"This wave has many twists and turns and is full of dangers. But the rewards are also huge!"
"In this battle, our army alone killed more than 40,000 Yellow Turban thieves!"
"The yellow turban thieves fled in panic, trampling on each other and killing each other, no fewer than ten thousand of them."
Lu Zhi proudly told about the victory. No matter what the process was, the outcome was a big victory.
"good!"
"Ha ha ha ha."
"It's not in vain for me to wait for a bloody battle!"
"It's only thanks to the general that he personally faced danger to achieve such a great victory."
Lu Zhi stroked his beard with one hand, looking proud.
"This battle has damaged the vitality of the Yellow Turban Army. The Yellow Turbans in Jizhou will be defeated soon!"
"The general deserves the most credit!"
"The general is strategizing, and the thief will be killed at the first sign of his neck!"
"General, if you have good command, why worry about the Yellow Turban being immortal? Hahaha"
. . . . . .
The compliments from everywhere made Lu Zhi's face glow red, and he couldn't close the corners of his mouth. He kept checking and drinking with the generals.
After three drinks, the banquet atmosphere reached its climax, and everyone had a smile on their face.
Of course, except for one person.
Lu Zhi coughed lightly, the scene gradually became quiet, and everyone looked forward.
"Liu Lieutenant is very resourceful. In your opinion, how should our army act?"
Liu Zhang looked thoughtful, but before he could speak, he heard a deafening shout from afar.
"What's there to think about? Now that Zhang Jiao is scared, how can the Yellow Turban bandits dare to resist when we wait for the whole army to press on us?"
Zhang Fei blushed and stood up unsteadily. He didn't know how much wine he drank.
Lu Zhi was furious, slammed the table, pointed at Zhang Fei and cursed.
"We are waiting for the general to discuss the important matters of the march. How can we allow you, a madman, to act recklessly here!"
Lu Zhi was really angry this time. Zhang Fei provoked Liu Zhang again and again, but he did not take Liu Zhang seriously at all.
Liu Bei quickly stood up, walked to the middle, and knelt down directly.
"Teacher, please calm down. Yide drank too much. Please don't blame me, teacher."
Zhang Fei was so drunk that he was so drunk that Lu Zhi shouted loudly, and he was stunned on the spot, not daring to speak anymore.
"What kind of teacher! I am deeply ashamed to have a disciple like you!"
"If it weren't for the three of you to rescue me, how could you be sitting here?"
"You can't even discipline your subordinates well, and you still want to lead troops in battle?"
Liu Bei's face turned red and he was very embarrassed.
"Sir Zhonglang said that I will strictly control him in the future."
Seeing that Liu Bei was very reluctant, Lu Zhi did not insult him with any more words.
"What do you think?"
Liu Bei was overjoyed when he saw Lu Zhi taking the test on him. This was his chance to show off!
But after thinking about it for a long time, I really couldn't think of anything.
"I agree with Yide's words."
Lu Zhi waved his hand to him in disappointment, motioning for him to go back and sit down. Then he turned to look at Liu Zhang.
Liu Zhang smiled slightly at Lu Zhi and stood up.
"Now that the Yellow Turbans have suffered a new defeat and their morale has been depleted, it is logical to take advantage of the situation and march forward."
"Hahaha!"
Zhang Fei looked up to the sky and laughed, looking at Liu Zhang with contempt.
"I don't think you have any other strategies, but they are not the same as mine!"
With a bang, Dian Wei stood up and glared at Zhang Fei.
"You bastard, you have humiliated my lord several times, you really don't think I dare to kill you!"
Zhang Fei also stood up suddenly, wandered to the middle, pointed at Dian Wei and cursed.
"Ugly, grandpa is not afraid of you!"
Taishi Ci and Guan Yu quickly got up and grabbed them.
Lu Zhi had reached the limit of his endurance, with anger in his eyes.
"Everyone, please be patient."
Liu Zhang chuckled and relaxed the atmosphere.
"I haven't finished what I just said."
"Does common sense always work? Although the Yellow Turbans have been newly defeated, the thief Zhang Jiao is still alive, and Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang are still by his side. The three of them have become a rival."
"Zhang Jiao is now hiding in Guangzong City. There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the city, and there is countless food. Guangzong City is tall and easy to defend but difficult to attack. Our army currently only has more than 30,000 people. If we force the city to attack, once we fail, the consequences will be disastrous!"
As soon as Liu Zhang said these words, all the generals in the hall were stunned for an instant.
Zhang Fei's face turned red from holding back, and he wanted to refute Liu Zhang, but he had nothing to say.
Lu Zhi's generals were dazzled by the victory and thought that when the army arrived, the Yellow Turbans would naturally surrender. I didn't expect the consequences of losing the war at all.
Liu Zhang's words were like cold water, waking everyone up.
Lu Zhi nodded happily. Even if Liu Zhang didn't say this, he would also say it.
"Does Lieutenant Liu have a plan?"
Liu Zhang touched his chin and thought for a while. After a while, he looked at Lu Zhi with a smile.
"There is no conspiracy, but there is a conspiracy. I wonder if Mr. Zhonglang is willing to listen to it?"
"Say it quickly!"
