Can I get to the other side?.

Chapter 288 I propose that the Lu family tree should have a separate page for Fengxian

Lu Bu's home is not in Jiuyuan City.

He entered the city just to show off his power. His final destination was Lujia Village outside Jiuyuan County, where he grew up.

Go back and see the elders and relatives in the village!
Although the Wuyuan County Magistrate's legs were a little sore from walking, he did not dare to have any objection to Lu Bu's order and could only stand in front and lead the horse.

The army circled Jiuyuan County several times with great momentum, and finally slowly marched out from the south gate, attracting the attention of countless people along the way.

Many people were attracted by the movement of the three thousand cavalrymen. When they saw the county magistrate leading a horse for someone, and learned that the mighty general on the horse was Lu Bu, they all exclaimed in surprise and ran to tell each other.

More and more people heard the news and came, following Lu Bu's carriage, surrounding him like stars surrounding the moon, and heading out of the city towards Lujia Village.

Lu Bu was very excited and thrilled about this.

It would be a shame if he returned home in glory without anyone's support. It was worth it for him to make such a big show and let the army accompany him into the city, just to attract more attention and make the ceremony bigger.

After all, the bigger the noise, the more face you gain!

Before Lü Bu's carriage reached Lüjia Village, many young men and idlers with curious minds ran into the village and started shouting loudly.

"Lu Fengxian is back! Villagers, come out to greet him!"

"A great man has emerged from your Lujia Village!"

"General Lu is back home! General Lu is back home!"

A group of people shouted at the top of their lungs, from the front to the back of Lujia Village, and soon attracted the attention of many villagers, who all poked their heads out of their homes to look.

When they saw a large group of people surrounding Lu Bu, who was riding a scarlet BMW, wearing mighty armor, and followed by a group of armored soldiers, they were so shocked that their eyes almost popped out.

"Oh my god! Why are there so many soldiers?"

"Could it be that the Huns are attacking us?"

"Bullshit, these are clearly the Han army!"

"Lü Fengxian? Is that Lü Bu? The general riding on that tall horse is Lü Bu?"

"Yes, it's Lu Bu! I recognize him!"

"Everyone, come out quickly, Fengxian has returned home in glory"

"Lu Bu is back, it's Lu Bu who is back!"

"Lu Wazi has become successful now!"

"Look at this tall horse and this armor. Lu Wazi has become a high-ranking official!"

“How majestic!”

……

All the villagers of Lujia Village ran out of their homes, looking at Lu Bu on his horse with excitement and envy, chattering non-stop.

The tall horses, the armor, and the many soldiers following behind them made the scene so grand that they felt deeply honored.

Hearing the praises and discussions from these most familiar villagers, Lu Bu felt so happy that his mouth almost grew to his ears.

He suppressed his excitement, bowed and said, "Dear fellow villagers, I..."

Before he finished speaking, a surprised and old voice suddenly came from the crowd: "Lv Wazi is back? Is it really Lv Wazi?"

The crowd was seen parting.

An old man with white hair and beard, hunched over, and leaning on a walking stick, walked out tremblingly from the crowd.

Seeing this man, Lu Bu quickly dismounted from his horse.

This is the most senior elder in their Lujia Village, and even he has to call him Third Uncle.

No matter how high an official he holds, he still has to recognize his elders. He certainly cannot sit on a horse and wait for the elders of other families to come and see him.

"Third Uncle, you are old..."

Lu Bu walked forward and wanted to greet him.

Unexpectedly, the village chief walked past him and came to the governor of Wuyuan County, saying excitedly: "Lu Wazi, why didn't you come back to visit for so many years?"

"Huh? Lu Wazi, why have you become shorter? I remember you weren't this short before."

The Wuyuan County Magistrate had his hand held by the village chief, his expression a little stiff. He wanted to pull it back but didn't dare to, so he could only look at Lu Bu with embarrassment.

Seeing this, a villager hurried forward, supported the village chief and said, "Village chief, you have the wrong person. Fengxian is here."

As he said this, he helped the village chief to Lu Bu.

The village chief tried hard to open his eyes and identify him. A happy smile appeared on his face, and he said excitedly: "Yes, yes, this is Lu Wazi!"

Hearing this nickname that hadn't been called for a long time, Lu Bu felt a warm feeling in his heart, and asked with a sigh: "Third Uncle, I haven't seen you for many years. Are you in good health?"

"Good! Very good!"

The village chief was very happy, and he took Lü Bu's hand and said, "Lü boy, you are finally back! Everyone in the village heard that you have become a high-ranking official and a favorite of the emperor, and they are all happy for you."

"What kind of official position are you in now?"

Lu Bu pretended to be modest and said: "Nothing, I just became the Grand Marshal, and then was conferred the title of Duke by the Emperor."

After saying this, he was ready to respond to the exclamations from the people around him, but to his surprise, all the villagers just looked at each other in bewilderment.

The village chief asked in confusion: "Taiwei, what kind of official is that?"

For these peasants, they have no idea of ​​the value of the titles of Grand Marshal and Duke, because in their understanding, the county magistrate is a very high-ranking official, and the county governor is no different from a local emperor.

The impact these two titles brought to them was far less than the shock brought by Lu Bu's majestic appearance, tall horse, and the armored soldiers following behind him.

Lu Bu's expression was a little stiff.

Upon hearing this, the Wuyuan County Magistrate stepped forward and said to the village chief with a smile on his face: "Old man, the Taiwei is a very important official. All the soldiers in the world must obey the Taiwei's orders!"

"There is also the title of Duke, which is higher than the title of Marquis and second only to the title of King!"

"Mr. Wen is now truly second only to the emperor and above all others. He will surely be promoted to a general in the future, a higher position than your Lu family's ancestor, Lu Buwei, the prime minister of Qin!"

"A real honor to our family!"

The governor of Wuyuan County could see that Lu Bu wanted to show off, so he took the initiative to explain it to him, and tried to make it as easy to understand as possible.

As expected, after hearing his explanation, all the villagers in Lujia Village widened their eyes in shock.

"Mobilizing the troops of the whole world? This is a heavenly official!"

"Is Fengxian's position higher than that of Lu's ancestors?"

"Oh my, this really brings honor to our family, honor to our family!"

"Fengxian is so promising! I suggest that the Lu family's genealogy tree should have a separate page for Fengxian!"

"That's not enough! You have to light the first stick of incense!"

“It’s so impressive.”

Everyone exclaimed in amazement, and all looked at Lu Bu with awe, because such an official position was beyond their imagination. "You are..."

The village chief looked at the Wuyuan County Magistrate in confusion.

The governor of Wuyuan County said with a smile: "I am the governor of Wuyuan County. I am here to accompany Lord Wen on his return trip."

"County, county governor?"

The village chief was shocked when he heard this. He didn't know what kind of official the Taiwei was, but he knew the County Magistrate, who was the top official in their Wuyuan County!

Such a high-ranking official could only accompany Lu Bu?
The village chief took Lü Bu's hand and said excitedly, "Let's go, let's go, Lü, let's go burn incense to our ancestors and your parents!"

"May our Lu family ancestors bless us! Let our Lujia Village produce such a promising young man!"

The Lu family in their Lujia Village was not even a branch of the Lu family's branch, but they actually produced an official who was even more important than Lu family's ancestor Lu Buwei!
This is simply smoke coming out of the ancestral grave!

Lu Bu gave the Wuyuan County Magistrate an approving look, then he supported the village chief and went with him to burn incense.

"Let me do it. I'll do it."

Seeing that Lu Bu was about to take action, the Lu villager who had supported the village chief before hurriedly spoke and helped the village chief over.

Lu Bu looked at the man and felt that he looked familiar. After careful identification, he finally recognized him and said with surprise, "You... are Li Hu?"

This was a good friend of his from his youth. At that time, they practiced martial arts, hunted, and participated in the county army to kill the Huns together. However, he later chose to leave Jiuyuan County and go out to explore the world, while the other chose to stay in his hometown.

Lu Bu was very happy to see his old friend suddenly. He had many things to say, but he felt as if something was blocking them, circling in his head and he couldn't say them out.

When Lu Bu called out his name, Li Hu was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up and a look of joy appeared on his face. He opened his mouth but made no sound.

Finally, his attitude finally became respectful, and he said to Lu Bu stiffly: "In reply to Lord Wen, I am the one who is right."

Lu Bu seemed to shudder. He looked at his old friend in awe and felt as if there was a sadly thick barrier between them.

"Let's go."

Lu Bu didn't say much. He sighed in his heart and went towards his ancestral tomb surrounded by the crowd.

……

The grassland outside the Great Wall is vast and boundless.

But it is winter now, and a heavy snow has just fallen, so everything you look at is white, as if you can't see the end.

The Huns were a nomadic people. They centered their nation around the royal court, with the inner tribes protecting the royal court and the outer tribes protecting the inner tribes.

The closer the tribe is to the center, the richer and more powerful it is, the higher its status is, and the more abundant pasture and water resources it enjoys.

Today, the central area of ​​the prairie is surrounded by tribes of all sizes, which is completely different from the original distribution pattern.

The reason for this was that not long ago Ma Chao led the Western Liang cavalry deep into the prairie and launched a brutal massacre against various tribes, causing all the tribes on the prairie to feel insecure and have to migrate in the middle of winter to prevent their tribe from being massacred.

In the largest and most luxurious royal tent of the Xiongnu royal tribe.

Today, the leaders of all the major tribes have gathered here, and everyone has a look of worry on their faces.

"Great Chanyu, you must save us."

The leader of the Wusun tribe said with a bitter face, "Recently, the group of Xiliang troops inside the pass have been like crazy, going deep into the grassland to massacre our major tribes."

"He said that our cavalry entered the pass to plunder and killed Han Sui, the leader of their Xiliang Army. This is a complete slander! Naked slander!"

"God of Heaven, how dare we enter the pass to plunder? Those barbaric guys are deliberately using this as an excuse to massacre our people!"

"That man named Ma Chao is so terrible! It's fine that he bullies the Qiang people, but now he even bullies us Xiongnu people!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately resonated with the leaders of other tribes. They began to complain and accuse the Han army of crimes, each with tears in their eyes.

God have mercy on them. They did nothing, but the Western Liang army repeatedly entered the grassland and slaughtered them. This is too unreasonable.

On the throne.

Huochequan felt a headache listening to the complaints of the tribal leaders. He raised his hand to suppress everyone's voices.

"I have already investigated this matter thoroughly. This is a power struggle within the Xiliang Army. Ma Chao deliberately put the blame on us."

"The Xiliang army is strong. We are no match for them. We should hide if we can. Resistance will only lead to their more frenzied attacks."

Huochuquan said with a sigh.

A tribal leader said: "Great Chanyu, you once helped the emperor return to the east and made great contributions. Why don't you ask the emperor for help?"

"I heard that Ma Chao has surrendered to the emperor. As long as the emperor issues an order, he will definitely not send troops to us again."

When the emperor returned to the east, Huchuquan, as the Chanyu, sent the Right Wise King Qubei to lead troops to escort him, which was a great contribution.

Huochuquan shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. Besides, Ma Chao said we killed Han Sui. What evidence do we have to prove our innocence?"

Although he knew that this matter was completely framed by Ma Chao, they had no way to prove their innocence. What if the emperor thought so too?

I can only find an opportunity to explain to the emperor.

At this time, the Right Wise King Qubei said, "Chanyu, we recently discovered a Han army on the grassland, with a number of about a thousand people."

"They came from Bingzhou. Judging from the flags, they are a group of Bingzhou officials. They seem to be running for their lives."

"High-ranking official?"

Huochuquan was shocked and couldn't help asking, "Why did Gao Gan's troops come to the grassland? What happened in Bingzhou recently?"

Of course he knew Gao Gan's name. This man was the governor of Bingzhou and the nephew of Yuan Shao. He had a very powerful army and was someone they could not afford to provoke.

Qubei replied, "Not long ago, the emperor sent troops to attack Bingzhou. Now Gao Gan has appeared on the grassland. It seems that the emperor has already conquered Jinyang City."

"Yuan Shao rebelled, and Gao Gan was a remnant of Yuan Shao's faction. He might have fled to the grassland to avoid being hunted down by the Han army."

"Looking at the route, they seem to be heading to Wuhuan."

Huochuquan was quite shocked when he heard this.

Let’s not talk about how difficult it is to send troops to fight in winter. The key point is that Gao Gan was defeated so quickly? Bingzhou has a lot of troops!

In just a few years, the emperor's army... has become so powerful!

Just as Huochuquan was lost in thought, a scout suddenly rushed into the king's tent. The scout's face was full of fear. Before Huochuquan could ask any questions, he said in a trembling voice: "Chanyu, it's the Han army! The Han army has arrived in Jiuyuan County!"

This sentence immediately made everyone present change color!
Huo Qunquan turned pale and asked in disbelief, "How many Han troops are there? Have you found out?"

The scout nodded and said, "We have found out that there are three thousand people."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. Huochuquan was annoyed and couldn't help but yelled, "It's just 3,000 Han troops, not 30,000. Why are you so scared?"

Although the Han army was powerful, 3,000 Han soldiers were not a big threat to them, so they were not that scared.

But the scout had a sad face and said in a voice full of suppressed fear: "But Chanyu, the commander of the 3,000 Han troops... is Lu Bu!"

Upon hearing these words, the royal tent was suddenly filled with dark clouds.

Everyone, including the Khan, looked pale.
