The Strongest Lu Bu's Sweeping Thousands of Armies

Chapter 293 Received the Marquis of Chu
Guo Jia arrived in Yecheng and persuaded Feng Ji through Xu You.

Feng Ji personally led him to see Yuan Shao.

The alliance between Cao and Yuan is already imperative.

At the same time, Lu Su also returned to Pengcheng.

Hearing that Lu Su was coming, Lu Bu waited for him outside the main gate of the official mansion.

Seeing Lu Su from a distance, Lu Bu led Chen Gong and others to meet him.

"Marquis Wen." Seeing Lu Bu approaching, Lu Su bowed.

"Zijing has worked hard." Lu Bu stepped forward to hold his hand, and asked when leading him to the government: "Didn't there be many dangers in Xudu?"

"It's not that dangerous." Lu Su replied, "It's just that Cao Mengde refused to see me at first, but I found Xun Wenruo and asked him to recommend me to meet Cao Mengde."

He personally accompanied Lu Su into the official residence, but Lu Bu didn't ask him about being a Marquis.

"Marquis Wen doesn't seem to care much about Marquis Feng?" Lu Su asked Lu Bu suspiciously.

"As long as Zijing returns safely, it doesn't matter whether he is a Marquis or not." Lu Bu smiled slightly, but still didn't ask about the Marquis at all.

"I have to congratulate Marquis Wen." Lu Su said, "From now on, it must be changed to Marquis Chu."

"Zijing is successful?" Lu Su congratulated Lu Bu on getting the title of Marquis of Chu, but Lu Bu asked with a slight smile, "Did Cao Cao say anything else?"

"Not really." Lu Su felt a little puzzled by Lu Bu's plainness. Instead of asking, he said to Lu Bu, "Cao Cao just asked me how long it has been since I served as Marquis of Chu."

"It seems that Cao Mengde has already made a decision." Chen Gong, who was behind Lu Bu, came up to him and whispered.

"I just don't know what the Yuan family in Hebei plans to do." Lu Bu said, "If the Yuan family plans to unite with Cao Mengde to attack Xuzhou, we will have a hard time."

"As far as our current strength is concerned, regardless of Cao Mengde or Yuan Benchu, we are no match for any one of them." Chen Gong said: "If the two are united, Chuhou really has to consider whether he needs to abandon Xuzhou."

Lu Bu nodded silently.

Lu Su, who had just come from Xudu, listened to Chen Gong's words, and asked Lu Bu with a blank face: "The Marquis of Chu knew that Cao Mengde planned to deal with Xuzhou?"

"In the past few days, I have repeatedly attacked cities and lands, and even Bo Fu has been effective." Lu Bu replied: "Cao Mengde's ambition is in the world, how could he have no fear of me? Xuzhou, Yangzhou and other places are adjacent to Yuzhou. If I am allowed to grow , he will definitely not be able to control him in the future. Before Zijing went to Xudu, we made double preparations. If not only Zijing, but also some of his aides came back, they probably planned to join me in the crusade against Yuan Benchu. However, the one who came back There is only Zijing alone, so it can be seen that he has made a decision to use the title of Marquis of Chu to stabilize me first, and then join Yuan Benchu ​​to attack Xuzhou."

Lu Bu personally made these analysis to Lu Su, and Lu Su was surprised when he heard it: "Cao and Yuan are now the two most powerful families. If they unite, how will Marquis Wen resist?"

"I can't run away without fighting." Lu Bu smiled lightly: "Even if I want to leave, I will leave a deep impression on them. At least I retreat to another place, so they don't dare to catch up. .”

"It is said that the Marquis of Chu has already turned to Cao Mengde earlier, why is he still trying to force him?" Lu Su frowned and said, "In this way, he will first lose his trust with the Marquis of Chu."

"Although he broke his promise first, in the end it will be said that I betrayed the Cao family first." Lu Bu smiled indifferently at the corner of his mouth: "Even so, so what? I will accept whatever they say about me."

"It's not Chuhou's fault, it should be distinguished." Lu Su frowned: "Can't we let others criticize us?"

"The whole world says I'm not good, what can I do?" Lu Bu replied, "The people around me know what I am, and that's all I know. Whether it's good or not, doesn't the winner decide? "

Speaking of this, he lowered his voice and said to Lu Su: "Now I let them make arrangements. One day I will win the world. I will let people make arrangements for them. Even if they want to distinguish, they will have no chance at that time."

"The Marquis Chu's mind is really admirable." Lu Su bowed in response.

He then said to Lu Bu, "I also went to see His Majesty when I was in Xudu."

"Zijing met His Majesty?" Lu Bu asked, "What did Your Majesty tell you?"

"Your Majesty's life is very aggrieved." Lu Su replied: "Since the matter of the clothes and belts, Cao Mengde has strictly controlled him, and he is always trembling every day for fear of being harmed by Cao Mengde."

Lu Bu didn't say anything, Chen Gong came up and said, "Marquis Chu, if Cao Mengde and Yuan Benchu ​​really plan to deal with Xuzhou, I think we should take this opportunity to send troops into Xudu to get His Majesty out."

Of course Lu Bu understood what Chen Gong meant.

It can be said that a large part of the reason why Cao Cao was able to grow to where he is today in just a few years is that he welcomed the emperor to Xudu back then.

Hei Tianzi ordered the princes to order the world in the name of using the imperial power in the hands of the emperor and supporting the royal orthodoxy, and many heroes were willing to join him. That's why he was able to fight south and north in the past few years to pacify all places south of the Yellow River except Xuzhou.

At present, the strength of the Cao family is still not as good as that of the Yuan family in Hebei.

But Lu Bu knew very well that the most powerful opponent in front of him was precisely Cao Cao!

Yuan Shao was indecisive, greedy and arrogant. Although Hebei had a lot of talents, he didn't know how to use them.

It is said that Tian Feng was also imprisoned a few days ago.

Lv Bu firmly believed that if he only dealt with Yuan Shao without Cao Cao watching over him, he would have at least a [-]% chance of winning.

"The Marquis of Chu knew that Cao Cao planned to unite with Yuan Shao to crusade against Xuzhou, so why didn't he send someone to Yecheng?" Lu Su asked suspiciously, "Yuan Benchu ​​is a man who looks forward and backward, so as long as he sends someone there, even if he eventually unites with Cao Cao, at least it will be able to delay for a while."

"What's the use of delaying for a while?" Lu Bu said with a smile: "What should come will always come. In order to delay for a while, I will send someone to Hebei. When Yuan Benchu ​​decides to join Cao Cao in the crusade against Xuzhou, the people I send will bear the brunt of it." I was killed by him. For what will happen sooner or later, why should I pick up someone?"

"It seems that Marquis Chu has already made plans." Lu Su said, "If there is anything that needs me to do, just ask me to do it."

"Zijing has made a great contribution by going to Xudu to ask for a title this time." Lu Bu said, "First rest in Pengcheng for a few days, and there will definitely be time to work for Zijing in the future."

"As long as Chuhou orders, I will do my best." Lu Su responded immediately.

Lu Bu received the title of Marquis of Chu, met Yuan Shao in Yecheng, and Guo Jia, who facilitated the alliance between the two, also embarked on the journey back to Xudu.
