104 The morale of the war is approaching, and he enters the cell to visit the general.
"I just heard of the name Xiang Liang before, and I don't know much about Xiang Liang." Lu Bu did not admit that he knew the character Xiang Liang because he was afraid that he would mislead Li Xin and the others' decisions because of his unsure view.
Seeing Lu Bu denying it, Li Xin shook his head in a little disappointed manner, but he didn't care too much. After all, although the Chu State is vast, it is vast and the land is sparse and the population is slightly barren. Some news is not as circulating as the Wei State and Qi State, so it is understandable that he does not understand the generals here.
"Although we don't know much about Xiang Liang, from the orderly retreat of the Chu army that day, and the caution that the Chu army showed when it entered the aid of Yanling this time, it can be seen that even if Xiang Liang is slightly inferior to his father Xiang Yan, it will not be much different." Zhang Han finally made a summary of Xiang Liang.
Li Xin nodded, pointed to the location where Xiang Liang was stationed on the map and said, "The last time he divided his troops against Xiang Yan was bullying him. He didn't know us, but this time we were not much different from the Chu army in terms of military strength, so we will fight with them in a regular battle this time, and let those Chu people see the courage of our Qin soldiers!!"
"No!" The generals responded to the promise in unison and captured Yanling as his foothold in Chu. The morale of the entire army rose again, but it was no longer the confusion and panic he received when Yingchen City fell that day.
After Lu Bu separated from Zhang Han outside his tent, he did not enter his tent, but went straight to the place where the prisoners of Chu were imprisoned.
More than 20,000 Chu army prisoners captured from the city that day were now locked in an open space west of the city. The reason for choosing this place was that there was a cell in Yanling City. Most of the prisoners with positions above the Chu army were detained in this cell for care, while ordinary Chu army soldiers were left outside, providing some food to support their lives every day, but no one cared for them to burn the wind and sun. In this hot summer day, some weak people fell from the Chu army prisoners.
"I've seen General Lu." The Qin general who was in charge of taking care of the captives naturally knew Lu Bu, a new star in the army. When Lu Bu strode by himself, he hurriedly brought the soldiers behind him to Lu Bu.
"Well, what are the abnormal movements of these Chu prisoners recently?" Lu Bu signaled everyone to get up first, and then asked casually.
The Qin general who was in charge of the prisoners, pointed to the listless prisoners who were hiding in the shade and hiding in the shade to escape the heat and smiled bitterly: "General Lu must have seen it too. The hot weather is the same for most of the time. Even if you whip it with a whip, it will be difficult."
Lu Bu remembered the amount of food that Li Xin had to give to each of the Chu army prisoners every day, and naturally understood that these Chu army prisoners did not want to think because of the hot summer, the bigger reason was that their current food could not support their vigorous movements. In addition, the Qin army had deducted some amount of food to prevent them from causing trouble, and there were no such things as beating, scolding, and abuse. After all, the Qin army's soldiers are now all focused on the upcoming battle.
Lu Bu smiled and said, "I want to go in and take a look."
The Qin general knew that what Lu Bu was looking at was the cell where senior Chu prisoners were imprisoned, but with the reputation that Lu Bu has established in the army now, nothing was wrong.
Lu Bu refused the Qin general's kindness to send someone to lead the way. Lu Bu had already arrived in this cell a few days ago, and this time he came in to say something to two Chu generals. He didn't feel like he was following a few Qin soldiers around him to disturb his conversation with the two.
The environment inside the cell is very poor. In addition to providing a slightly shelter from the wind and rain, staying here is even better than being "limited" outside. Except for some broken places on the top that can bring a ray of sunshine from the outside, the entire cell looks very dark. It is these broken roofs that have caused a lot of water to the cell after the rain, and the humidity and rats make the "prisoners" who are imprisoned here particularly uncomfortable.
Lu Bu walked to a section in the southeast corner of the last cell, looked at the two middle-aged Chu generals who were held in two cells, and chuckled: "Two, how have you lived in this prison these days?"
"Are you here again? What are you going to say again this time? Or do we want us to surrender to you?" The person who spoke was Zhong Liping, the general Chu who had fought with Lu Bu that day, and the other cell was Ji Wen, who was arrested at the same time as Zhong Liping.
Lu Bu smiled slightly. These two Chu army generals were caught when he departed from Yanling that day. Although these two people did not leave any names in history, in the eyes of Lu Bu, who is now extremely lacking in capable subordinates, these two Chu army generals are still useful talents.
The only capable talents who can be regarded as Lu Bu are the only ones who belong to Lu Ze and Lu Shizhi. Although Lu Ze and Lu Shizhi have extraordinary potential, they are still a little immature now. However, Zhongli Ping and Ji Wen are talents that can be used as soon as possible. Lu Bu, who lacks such talents, is so concerned about them. As for their loyal attitude towards the State of Chu, Lu Bu did not take it seriously.
Because the State of Chu will be annexed by Qin sooner or later, and like Zhongli Ping and Ji Wen, two generals from the civilian class, are not like Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu, the aristocratic generals of Chu. After all, Zhongli Ping and others had no rights before the fall of Chu. However, Xiang Liang and Xiang Yu's Xiang clan occupied great strength before the fall of Chu. This is also the biggest reason for the completely different attitudes shown by these two classes after the fall of Chu. Therefore, Lu Bu is sure to convince Zhongli Ping and Ji Wen to surrender to him in the end!
Lu Bu sat cross-legged outside the prison cells of Zhongli Ping and Ji Wen, and did not rush to persuade them again. Instead, he talked about some trivial matters of life with a smile on his face. This was also Lu Bu wanted to establish a preliminary trust relationship with Zhongli Ping and the others first. Although he was going to fight with Li Xin and Xiang Liang soon, Lu Bu, who knew the strength of the Qin army, did not take the upcoming battle at all. Now Lu Bu plans to complete the recruitment of two Chu generals, Zhongli Ping and Ji Wen, before the end of the war against Chu, to achieve a supplement to his private team.
If you want to know what Lu Bu will gain in the end, let’s see if you don’t cry and then break it down again~~
