The reason why Lu Zhi gave up on regaining military power was not because Liu Bei's military power was inferior to him.

On the contrary, Liu Bei's army was well-equipped and powerful.

In fact, Liu Bei's military performance was so good that Lu Zhi was full of confidence in Liu Bei.

This confidence was so sufficient that Lu Zhi was not afraid of Han Wuzhushi, not afraid of the Yellow Turban traitor, not afraid of Dong Zhuo, and not afraid of any powerful power.

However, whether Liu Bei or Liu Bei's army performs poorly, Lu Zhi will definitely take the national affairs as a priority and use Liu Bei's military power to regain military power.

Lu Zhi put down all the important things on his mind. He was extremely relaxed and wandered around the camp with nothing to do.

Lu Zhi personally went to see the chicken and duck coop. There were eggs in the chicken and duck coop that had not been collected. Lu Zhi took the basket and wanted to collect the eggs.

Li Mengxi handed the basket covered with wheat straw to Lu Zhi and said that using this basket, the eggs would not rot.

Lu Zhi took the basket and, like a prank, reached out and pinched Li Mengxi's face hard.

Li Mengxi looked unhappy, while Lu Zhi laughed.

There were more than a hundred chickens and ducks. Lu Zhi harvested 17 chicken and duck eggs. He was very happy.

Liu Bei wanted to show off his military training results and invited Lu Zhi to watch.

Lu Zhi went happily.

In the mud.

Liu Bei trained the entire formation and practiced it.

Lu Zhi saw that the sergeants with green turbans gathered and dispersed like the wind. When the order came, they lined up in an instant.

Lu Zhi nodded slightly.

When the soldiers reported their numbers, their voices were loud and their morale was high.

Walking down, when passing in front of the queue, all the sergeants in the queue looked straight ahead without squinting. Lu Zhi nodded again.

Walking to the side of the queue, I saw four rows in the queue, as neat as a knife. I heard Liu Bei say that these forty people had just completed one month of training.

Lu Zhi was extremely surprised.

They formed a queue and stood in a military posture.

For two moments, the forty soldiers stood like wood and stone, nailed to the ground, motionless.

Lu Zhi's expression became slightly serious.

Lu Zhi is a man who knows the military. He can tell whether the military is strong or not.

There is no doubt that Liu Bei has demonstrated his ability in military training. Lu Zhi once again lamented that his student has become strong. Lu Zhi would not think that Liu Bei's ability is due to his teaching.

When Liu Bei was a student, he did not teach Liu Bei how to write a battle book, nor how to train troops.

I heard Liu Bei say that during the march, he studied the art of war with his sworn brother Guan Yu day by day.

As for people, they have to perfect themselves.

Lu Zhi therefore believed that Liu Bei's ability was all due to his persistence in self-study.

If Lu Zhi knew that all military training techniques were taught by Li Mengxi, he would not be shocked to death.

Later, Lu Zhi was extremely curious about the osprey boat and the fishing team, so Liu Bei sent scouts out to find water. Then, he took the fishing team and Lu Zhi to fish on the river.

On the river, the fishermen stepped on fishing boats. In the middle of the river, they were casting nets in full swing to catch fish. One net after another, there were indeed fish.

If you accumulate ten nets and hundreds of nets, there will be quite a lot of fish.

The fishing team had been busy for most of the day. On the shore, the big fish basket was filled with five and a half baskets full of fish.

We weighed the fish and found that there were more than 400 kilograms of fish.

After seeing the whole fishing process with his own eyes, Lu Zhi was convinced that the fish caught alone could cover the food consumption of hundreds of people.

The fishermen were killing fish using the water in the river. Liu Bei explained carefully to Lu Zhi at this time, saying that each fisherman had a pair of scissors. Originally, the army did not have so many scissors. During the march, he had been buying them every day, and finally

Buy enough.

If there are not enough scissors, killing fish will be a lot of trouble.

From Liu Bei's explanation, Lu Zhi understood why he specifically asked the fishing team to catch fish and then killed them casually at the water's edge because there was no water in the army; after killing the fish, they collected the gills, intestines, etc.

Because the gills of the fish are fed to chickens and ducks, Lu Zhi also knows this; the swim bladders are left alone to cook isinglass, which is used to paste boats. The carpenters in the army are not good at craftsmanship, and no one knows how to build boats. But even so,

A carpenter who didn't know how to make a boat successfully launched the boat.

After understanding everything about the fishing team, Lu Zhi felt quite educated.

I didn’t expect that there would be so many clues about fishing.

If you don't have a boat, you can't go into deep water and you can't catch fish. If you want a boat, you need a carpenter and you need a fish bladder. If you want a fish bladder, you have to kill a fish. When you want to kill a fish, put the swim bladder alone. If you want to kill a fish, it's not easy to use a ring-head knife.

Use scissors, want scissors, march and fight, who would bring so many scissors? If you want scissors, you have to buy them. If you want to buy them, you have to form a traveling caravan. To form a traveling caravan, there are many aspects that need to be considered in a traveling caravan.

Carry more flags and less swords and guns. If you have few flags, you will have no power; if you have many swords and guns, the villagers will be frightened.

When marching and fighting, you have to take merchants with you.

It must be brought. Lu Zhi thought of the food shortage during the previous expedition. He sent people to buy food. Because he did not know the local food price, he was in a dilemma. He was afraid that the price would be low and the people would suffer. It would not be appropriate to give a high price.

The military is depleted of resources.

Now that I think about it, when you are on the march, you will inevitably buy things along the way. People who are proficient in business are indispensable.

Lu Zhi was a great scholar in China, well versed in military matters, and had rich combat experience.

But in details, he is far inferior to Liu Bei.

To be precise, it is far inferior to the self-construction system that the rebels have established now.

Take the Ranger Caravan as an example. Since the implementation of the Ranger Purchase Law, many deficiencies have been found and revised many times. Among them, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Li Mengxi, and scout Zhang Fei, etc. are concentrated.

The wisdom of everyone.

If you want to be more rigorous than Liu Bei, there is only one possibility - the opponent must come from a stronger system than the Rebel Army.

The fishing team returned with a full harvest. In the evening, Lu Zhi ate the freshly caught fish with no regrets.

"Xuande, is the sergeant who escorted me okay?" Lu Zhi asked.

"I am in custody and I haven't hurt anyone," Liu Bei said.

Lu Zhi nodded, "Xuande, I'll leave tomorrow."

"Master Lu, why don't you stay for two more days, so that the students can fulfill their friendship as landlords..." Liu Bei reluctantly persuaded him to stay.

"Hey." Lu Zhi waved his hand to stop him, "If the army delays for one day, it will consume a lot of food and grass. It is already inappropriate to delay you for one day. How can we delay it any longer."

No matter how Liu Bei tried to persuade him to stay, Lu Zhi was determined to leave.

Helpless, Liu Bei had no choice but to let him go.

That night, Lu Zhidan called Li Mengxi to talk.

The two of them sat opposite each other.

"Little friend, since you are Xuande's military advisor, I have something to ask you," Lu Zhi said.

"I also want to ask Master Lu." Li Mengxi said.

Lu Zhi smiled and asked, "What do you think is the most important thing when you go to beg a thief?"

"The most important thing is food and grass." Li Mengxi answered without hesitation, "If there is enough food and grass, even if our military strength is insufficient, we can still encroach step by step and win by gathering small forces. It doesn't matter if we fight the Yellow Turban for a year.

But if the supply of food and grass does not continue, even if our army is stronger than the Yellow Turbans, if we are too eager to win, it will take a long time and our army will be defeated."

"Of course!" Lu Zhi nodded with satisfaction.

Li Mengxi's answer was very good. His ability was recognized by Lu Zhi, and Lu Zhi had no other worries.

Then, Lu Zhi asked, "What do you want to ask?"

"Master Lu fought against the Yellow Turbans one after another. I want to know how many Yellow Turban troops there are, how many infantry and cavalry, and how elite they are? What are their good tactics? What should I do if I defeat the enemy?" Li Mengxi asked a series of questions.

Lu Zhi pondered for a moment and said, "The elite of the Yellow Turban Army are not inferior to the official army. They have an elite soldier named Yellow Turban Warriors. When they are anxious, the Yellow Turbans frequently use their warriors to attack my weak body, so I have to guard against..."

We held a candle and talked at length until late into the night.

Li Mengxi took a pen and wrote down a full volume.

Finally, Lu Zhi drew a hand-drawn map with Li Mengxi based on his memory. The map was quite detailed, and the situation between the enemy and ourselves on it was clear and clear.

Li Mengxi was a little surprised by Lu Zhi's memory ability and map-drawing ability. The scholar was worthy of being a high-level intellectual and capable person.

His ability to draw maps alone was enough to overwhelm ten thousand rebels.
