The Reincarnation of Lu Bu at the End of the Han Dynasty

Chapter 397

Zhongping three years, October.

Gao Shun, the general of the Han army, defeated the cavalry of the Xiongnu in Dacheng Fortress and beheaded the Hun Shanyu Xubuguduhou.Yu Fuluo, the former Right Wise King of the Huns, took advantage of the situation to incorporate the remnants of Xubu Gudu Hou and became the new Chanyu.

The Southern Xiongnu suddenly changed, and they fought back. The unexpected Ke Bi Neng was severely injured, unable to attack Xi'an Yang by force, and could only retreat northward in despair.

So far, the crisis in the northern border of Bingzhou has been resolved.

Youzhou, Guangyang County.

Hearty laughter sounded in Lu Bu's temporary residence, and Lu Bu, who was dressed in a black fur suit, came laughing.

"General, why are you so happy?" Sitting in front of the charcoal stove, Xi Tie asked with a smile while baking his hands.

In the courtyard, Huang Zhong, Chen Wei and others were fighting martial arts. Hearing Lu Bu's laughter, they stopped the competition one after another, and all of them came over.

Lu Bu raised the bamboo slips in Yangshu, and was very happy: "The letter I just received, the second brother and Gao Shun tried their best to stop the coalition forces of Xian and Hungarians in Bingzhou, making them stop outside Xi'anyang, and failed to set foot in Wuyuan. Not only that, Gao Shun Shun even took down the head of Xubu Guduhou, and the new Shan Yufuluo professed his vassal to the great Han, swearing that he will be a Han minister for the rest of his life."

At the end of the letter, Gao Shun did not forget to mention that the little ghosts of the Young Marshal Army also performed outstandingly and showed their talents.

When the good news spread to the imperial court, the emperor was very happy, and rewarded ten thousand pieces of brocade, and rewarded all the meritorious people.

Gao Shun made outstanding military exploits, killing the rebellious Marquis Xubugudu, prompting the Xiongnu to surrender again, and was directly promoted from the school lieutenant to the general of the Xiongnu Zhonglang, responsible for monitoring matters related to the northern aliens.

Because of the cooperative relationship reached with Lu Bu before, Zhang Rang did not get in the way this time.

After Gao Shun made such great achievements, he became a general of Zhonglang.After hearing this, Huang Zhong, Chen Wei and the others were envious and full of fighting spirit. They eagerly asked for help and said, "General, we have given the Yuyang rebels two or three months of respite. We should launch an attack again and capture Yuyang. Yang County is here!"

Lu Bu shook his head and temporarily rejected the proposal.If Zhang Chun hadn't fortified the wall and cleared the country, perhaps they had already captured Yuyang, and even ended the rebellion.

But now that winter is about to enter, the best season for leading troops to attack has passed.The climate here in Youzhou is far colder than that in Bingzhou. Unless it is absolutely necessary, few people will choose to fight and attack the city in the cold winter season.

The reason is that marching in winter will be hindered by heavy snow. Snow will not only affect the march of soldiers, but also cause difficulties in the transportation of logistics supplies.And in many wars in the north, especially in the wars between the Central Plains Dynasty and the ethnic minorities in the north, the cold itself was a great obstacle.

Chen Wei, Huang Zhong and the others are high-ranking warriors who are not afraid of the severe cold, but the lower-level soldiers cannot physically withstand the cold weather, and frostbite and wind-cold are often seen.

In addition, Liu Yu, governor of Youzhou, had also sent people to Liaodong to persuade Qiu Liju to see the situation clearly. As long as he was willing to surrender, the previous incidents could be forgotten.

In Lu Bu's view, the plan to recruit and surrender is feasible.Liu Yu was well-known among the various ethnic groups in the north. If he was willing to guarantee, it was not impossible for Qiu Liju to surrender.Without Wuhuan as his backer, Zhang Ju and Zhang Chun had no choice but to die.

Noticing the date of signing the letter, Joce frowned slightly: "Why is the letter from a month ago?"

The end time of the letter was October [-]th in the third year of Zhongping.

Lu Bu is used to it. When he writes family letters, it often takes a month or two to pass them on to his wife and daughter.

Here in Youzhou, the roads are difficult and the news is blocked. Whether it is news from the outside or news from the inside, it will take a long time.

At this time, the soldiers guarding the gate of the mansion came to report: "General, someone outside the mansion wants to see you."

"Who?" Lu Bu looked suspicious. If it was the generals under his command, the soldiers guarding the gate should recognize it.

"The subordinate asked, but the man didn't say anything, he was holding a square wooden box in his hand, and said that he would explain his purpose after seeing the general." The soldier replied respectfully.

"How does it look?" Xi Ce folded up the letter and asked.

"It's a short-bearded man in his thirties, with a slightly sloppy face, wearing a thick long coat, and doesn't look very outstanding." The soldier answered truthfully, remembering the appearance of the man at the door.

Lu Bu was still at a loss, but Joke laughed: "Maybe it's a student from a humble family who recommended himself to the general and wanted to attach himself to the general!"

Literati have strength of character, but not all scholars are strong and strong, and those who are unwilling to serve the powerful and powerful, after all, there are only a few.On the contrary, ninety-nine percent of people read and write, all in order to 'learn intrigue, or to get along with the emperor's family'.

It's just that the way to become an official is now monopolized by the aristocratic family, and it becomes especially difficult for some descendants of the declining gentry to become an official.

Therefore, when many people had no way to serve the imperial court, they changed their eyes and went to serve the powerful and important figures as staff figures such as government guests and staff.

Maybe this person came to serve after learning of Lu Bu's reputation?

After listening to it, Lu Bu felt that it made sense, so he ordered the guards to take him to the living room to observe first.

Soon, the soldiers brought the middle-aged man into the mansion.

In the reception hall, Lu Bu lived in the middle, and on the lower left and right sides were Huang Zhong and others.

Stepping into the living room, the middle-aged man didn't look sideways, put down the wooden box in his hand, bowed and saluted Lu Bu, with a deep voice: "The villain Wang Zheng, I have seen the general."

Lu Bu sized this man up. Apart from the joy reported by the gatekeepers, Lu Bu also noticed that his eye sockets were slightly sunken, his cheekbones were prominent, and he had a deliberately suppressed cold aura about him.

"I don't know why your Excellency is here?" Lu Bu asked with his scrutiny back.

"The villain learned that the general is worried about the rebels, so he specially prepared a small gift and sent it to the general." Wang Zheng said humbly, offering the wooden box with both hands.

Chen Wei went over to take the wooden box, and under Lu Bu's signal, opened it in public.

Inside the wooden box was a pale-faced head with disheveled hair. It seemed that before he died, he must have been greatly frightened, not to a lesser extent.

All of you in the hall are people who have experienced fighting on the battlefield, and a dead head naturally cannot frighten them.

After Cao Xing glanced at it, his interest was lacking. It was in vain that he was extremely curious just now, so he curled his lips and said, "It's just a head, what kind of gift is this?"

"General, please take a closer look at his appearance." Wang Zheng asked Lu Bu.

Could it be that there is another mystery?
Everyone muttered in their hearts and looked again.

When they saw the person's true appearance, they couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This person is none other than Zhang Chun, the leader of the rebel army entrenched in Yuyang County!
