The Three Kingdoms Fight for the Deer

Chapter 159 Goodbye Gao Shun
Li Yuan went to the place where Gao Shun was guarded. He was very kind to Gao Shun. Generally, prisoners lived in a cell, but he arranged a quiet room for Gao Shun, and he was in charge of eating and drinking every day, but he was not allowed to go out. This kind of house arrest may be unbearable to a person with an ordinary mentality within a year or two, but Gao Shun has been under house arrest for five or six years, but he still does not surrender, seeing how stubborn his temper is.

When Li Yuan walked to the door, there were eight soldiers guarding him. Because of Gao Shun's high martial arts skills, he specifically told Chen Qun to arrange a certain number of people to guard Gao Shun. Don't let him have a chance to escape. Chen Qun obeyed Li Yuan's instructions. Eight soldiers were arranged to guard in the open, and several soldiers were also arranged in the dark, just to prevent Gao Shun from escaping.

Walking into the gate, I saw someone practicing martial arts in the yard. That person was Gao Shun. He was holding a big knife, and his body was constantly flying up and down. Although Gao Shun has not been on the battlefield these years, he has been practicing martial arts, so his martial arts has not regressed, and he has made some progress.

After a while, Gao Shun finished a set of saber techniques, put away the saber and stood up, not blushing and not panting, which proved that he was still very energetic.

"Good swordsmanship." Li Yuan walked over clapping his palms, his eyes full of admiration, Gao Shun's martial arts is not top-notch, he cannot be compared with Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, even Gan Ning and Hua Xiong, but Gao Shun's ability to command the army is very powerful, and the camp he trained is even more powerful in the world, which is what Li Yuan values ​​most.

"Li Yuan!" Gao Shun was quite surprised when he saw Li Yuan. He hadn't seen Li Yuan for several years, and he was a little overwhelmed by the other party's sudden appearance, "Why are you here?"

"I'm here to tell you some bad news. I wonder if you want to know?" Li Yuan went to a stone bench and sat down.

"Is it about my lord?" Gao Shun already guessed that Li Yuan wanted to talk about Lu Bu.

"Smart, it's about Lu Bu. You have been imprisoned by me for so long, and you still call him my lord. This kind of loyalty is invaluable." Seeing that Gao Shun still called Lu Bu his lord, Li Yuan knew that this time the solicitation might hit a wall again.

"Could it be that something happened to him?" Hearing that it was about Lu Bu, Gao Shun was very concerned. Although he had eaten well, dressed well and lived well these past few years, Chen Qun treated him pretty well and didn't make things difficult for him, but because he didn't go out, So he didn't know anything about the outside world, and now the world has undergone earth-shaking changes, if he knew it, he would be shocked.

"He's dead." Li Yuan only said three words, but these three words were shocking enough for Gao Shun.

A trace of sadness appeared on Gao Shun's face. Although he hadn't seen Lu Bu for five or six years, he always regarded Lu Bu as the master in his heart. This loyalty has never been forgotten. He asked, "Who killed him?" ?”

"It's me." Li Yuan's voice was calm, he was not afraid of angering Gao Shun, after all, this was the truth, and he didn't need to lie on purpose just to recruit Gao Shun.

"Sure enough, he was still defeated by you in the end," Gao Shun was surprisingly not angry, and acted very calmly, "Actually, I had predicted a few years ago that you and my lord must be mortal enemies. Although my lord is brave, More than enough, but not enough strategy, it is not your opponent."

Gao Shun is a down-to-earth person, he is what he should be, and he will not intentionally say good or bad things, so when he was under Lu Bu's command, he often offended people, and not many people liked him except Lu Bu and Zhang Liao.

"Since you already know, why didn't you choose to surrender to me?" Li Yuan asked.

"A loyal minister does not serve two masters." Gao Shun showed his loyalty to the fullest, even a little foolishly loyal.

"Lu Bu and Zang Ba were killed by me, Wei Xu and Cheng Lian were killed by my younger brother Zhao Yun, Cao Xing was killed by my general Huang Zhong, Zhang Liao and Hou Cheng were also captured by our army, Hao Meng and Song Xian have already died Surrender to Cao Cao, and most of Lu Bu's generals fell into my hands, I think you should hate me very much." Li Yuan said slowly.

"There is no such thing as hate or hate. I still understand the truth of fighting on the battlefield and shrouding corpses in horse leather. They can only say that they are inferior to others when they lose to you. I, Gao Shun, don't have any resentment for this." Gao Shun took it very seriously. Life and death are divided on the battlefield, those with high skills will naturally live, and those with no skills can only accept their fate. This is different from personal hatred.

Li Yuan didn't expect Gao Shun to be so sensible. It seems that Gao Shun didn't surrender because he didn't resent him, but because of his position.

Neither of them spoke again, and the atmosphere became a little awkward. After a long time, it was Gao Shun who spoke first: "General Li, how did my lord lose to you?"

"Lü Bu captured the woman who loved me. In a rage, I besieged him with Cao Cao. He was lured out of the city by my tricks. Finally, in the outer suburbs of Puyang, my flying cavalry fought with him in the Bingzhou iron cavalry. He died. He was shot by me, but he also seriously injured me, and Zhang Liao was captured in this battle." Li Yuan said as he unbuttoned his clothes, revealing the bandaged wound.

Gao Shun looked down and saw that the bandages on Li Yuan's waist were very thick, and the injury must have been serious. He knew Li Yuan's martial arts, and perhaps only his lord Lu Fengxian could hurt Li Yuan in this world.

Although he didn't go into battle with his own eyes, Gao Shun seemed to be able to see the fierce battle between Li Yuan and Lu Bu. Both of them are powerful generals in the world, and the soldiers under their command are also the strongest soldiers in the world. The intensity of that battle should be shocking.

"Is Zhang Liao okay?" Gao Shun asked again.

"I captured Zhang Liao back to Xiapi, but I let him escape not long ago. I don't know where he escaped. Maybe he will go to Cao Cao." Li Yuan replied truthfully.

"Xiapi? Isn't Xiapi the residence of Tao Qian?" Gao Shun couldn't understand.

"Gao Shun, you haven't heard from the outside world for a long time, right? Ever since Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo, the world has become a situation where heroes compete for hegemony. In the north, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao are fighting for hegemony; in Xiliang, Ma Teng and Han Sui jointly attacked Chang'an. ; Guo Si and Li Jue controlled Chang'an; Sun Jian was defeated by Liu Biao and died when he was shot by Liu Ya; Sun Jian's son Sun Ce wanted to unify Jiangdong, and then attacked Liu Biao to avenge his father; Liu Yan moved to Shuzhong and became the lord of Shuzhong; Cao Cao unified Yanzhou Have the heart to rule the roost; Liu Bei suddenly rose to control the North Sea."

Li Yuan told Gao Shun what had happened over the years: "After Kong Ni died of illness, Yuzhou was entrusted to me. I defeated Tao Qian to control Xuzhou, and then joined forces with Sun Ce to defeat Yuan Shu to control Lujiang. Afterwards, I defeated Lu Bu in Puyang and helped Cao Cao take it back. Puyang."

Gao Shun could not speak for a long time after listening to it. He never thought that only a few years had passed, but the world had changed so much, which was far beyond his expectation.
