Three Kingdoms: I choose Xiao Qiao and Da Qiao, why are you crying, Diao Chan?

Chapter 431: Diplomatic Mission to the East Sea Kingdom (Thanks to Brother Marandu for the four monthly tickets~~)

Hearing what Guo Jia said, Lu Bu asked curiously:
"Who is the one who recommended Feng Xiao?"

"The recorder is Mi Fang."

Hearing this name, Lu Bu frowned.

In his stereotype, Mi Fang is a complete waste.

At this moment, Guo Jia actually said that he could help them conquer the Donghai Kingdom?

If someone else said this, Lu Bu would definitely not believe it.

But since these words came from Guo Jia, Lu Bu still patiently asked:

"Appreciate further details?"

Guo Jia replied:

“The Mi family has a huge influence in the East Sea State.

“If I could enter the city as an envoy to negotiate with the enemy general, and take the opportunity to spread rumors in the city.

“It is said that if Lü Bu’s army can conquer Donghai State, all taxes can be exempted for the local people.

“The people of East Sea will surely be very happy then.

“Then we will find an opportunity to have Mi Fang mobilize the people in the city to cause chaos, and our army will take advantage of the situation to attack Tancheng, the capital of Donghai State.

"When Tancheng is in turmoil and fighting outside, it will be easy to capture!"

After listening to Guo Jia's plan, Lu Bu nodded in understanding:
“So that’s how it is… If someone else spread this news, the people of Tancheng would definitely not believe it easily.

"But considering the influence of Mi Fang and the Mi family in Tancheng, it is indeed very likely to succeed."

Lu Bu immediately decided on this strategy.

Then, he looked at everyone and said:

“According to what Chen Gongtai said yesterday, Zhuge Liang of Pengcheng State should not send a large number of troops to garrison there.

"Which general is willing to lead the army to capture this place?"

The second in command, Gao Shun, immediately stood up:
"My lord, I am willing to go! I didn't accomplish anything the last time I went to Liang State. This time I hope I can help you with your worries."

Lu Bu glanced at his good brother.

Given Gao Shun's status, he naturally would not aim to achieve great things.

So the other party really wants to share your worries.

Therefore, Lu Bu did not refuse and agreed directly:
“Since Father Xiao has this idea, then I’ll leave this matter to you.

"Also, take three of the six generals of the Cao family with you. I will personally lead the remaining three."

Gao Shun heard this and said:

"Then I will take Xiahou Yuan, Cao Hong and Cao Ren with me."

At the banquet last night, he could see that the Duke of Chu was more interested in the Xiahou brothers and Cao Ang.

But these six men have just joined, and the Xiahou brothers have a closer relationship, so the two of them should be separated to prevent them from building up prestige together in their own camp.

Compared with Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun, the former should be relatively weaker, so he chose the weaker one.

As for Cao Hong and Cao Ren, the Duke of Chu did not seem to be very interested in them. Instead, he favored the two young men more.

Seeing Gao Shun’s choice, Lu Bu was quite satisfied.

The task of attacking Pengcheng State was left to the other side.

As the second-in-command, he should also let Gao Shun hone his ability to lead a large army.

You can't always run around with just a trap camp, you also need to have the ability to lead a large army.

After discussing the plan for this battle, Lu Bu dismissed everyone and went straight to Mi Mansion in the city.

Speaking of which, he hasn't visited Mi Zhen for a long time, and he doesn't know how that girl is doing recently.

When I return from this expedition, I will take this girl as my wife as well...

While thinking about this, Lu Bu had already arrived at the gate of Mi Mansion.

The guard at the door saw Lu Bu coming from afar and immediately went into the mansion to report.

Soon, he saw a beautiful girl rushing out of the house and trotting towards him, not caring about her manners.

And Lu Bu also smiled and opened his arms, hugging Mi Zhen who threw herself into his arms.

Mi Zhen raised her head, with a gleam of a little resentful woman in her red eyes:

"Master Fengxian, why haven't you come to visit me for so long? Have you forgotten me?"

Lu Bu pinched her ear with a sly smile:

"Of course I haven't forgotten. It's just that I've been fighting all over the place lately and haven't had much time to go out.

"But this time I came here to tell you that when I return from this battle, I will marry you!"

Hearing this, Mi Zhen's puffed up cheeks immediately disappeared.

A pair of beautiful big eyes blinked, and then asked with some concern:
"Is Lord Fengxian going to go to war again?"

Lu Bu said "hmm".

"Why does Lord Fengxian like to go out and fight so much?
"Willn't a lot of people die in a war? What's so fun about that?"

Looking at the girl's innocent eyes, Lu Bu was speechless for a moment.

Yeah, what’s fun about war?

If it weren't for the purpose of giving his family a safer and more stable life, he actually wouldn't want to go to war.

But the same thing goes, if I don't take the initiative to fight, given Zhuge Liang and Liu Xie's goals, they will sooner or later take the initiative to attack me.

Instead of waiting to die, it is better to find the right opportunity to eliminate these powerful enemies.

By then, the people of the whole world will be able to enjoy a peaceful and prosperous era!
Lu Bu told Mi Zhen his idea, and Mi Zhen nodded as if she understood.

At this time, Mi Fang, who had heard the news, also came out and bowed to Lu Bu and said:
"My Lord, what orders do you have for me today?"

Lu Bu took Mi Zhen's hand and walked straight towards Mi's mansion:

"I have something to ask of you. Let's go in and talk."

Hearing this, Mi Fang suddenly became excited and immediately led Lu Bu into the mansion.

Then, at Lu Bu's signal, he took Lu Bu and his sister to the study.

The study is generally quiet and private, so people often choose to discuss important matters here.

Lu Bu sat down on the wooden chair, and Mi Zhen stood beside him, with his hands still being played with.

Mi Fang stood respectfully in front of Lu Bu, looked at their entangled hands, and asked again:

"I wonder what your lordship wants?"

Lu Bu said lazily:

“I have an important mission for you.

"After the matter is accomplished, I will not only formally marry Mi Zhen, but I will also promote you to be the Prime Minister of Pengcheng, and manage the land of one county in Pengcheng State. What do you think?"

A hint of surprise and astonishment suddenly flashed across Mi Fang's eyes.

He thought that Lu Bu came to discuss marrying Mi Zhen with him.

But he didn't expect it to be something more important. He immediately bowed 90 degrees and said:
"Please give your orders, my lord!"

Seeing that Mi Fang had a good attitude, Lu Bu said "hmm", and then told the other party about Guo Jia's plan.

However, when he heard that he was asked to return to the enemy camp, Mi Fang's face suddenly changed.

Now he has betrayed his brother Mi Zhu and brought his sister to join Lu Bu.

But he didn't expect that Lu Bu would actually send him back.

Is the other party sure that he doesn't want to kill someone with a borrowed knife?

Seeing Mi Fang's sullen face, Lu Bu understood his thoughts and immediately comforted him:
"Don't worry, I know what you are worried about.

"You have done great things for me, and you are Zhen'er's elder brother, how could I possibly harm you?

"I will send Lieutenant General Wen Pin to accompany you on your diplomatic mission to the East Sea Kingdom!"
