Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 116 The Last Temptation
Chapter 110 Six

"According to my lord's order, my subordinates stationed at the ferry of the Yellow River, waiting for reinforcements from Bingzhou, but the reinforcements from Bingzhou did not come, but a large number of Xiliang soldiers led by Li Jue arrived early this morning. During this period, I have also sent people to ask for reinforcements from Bingzhou, but unfortunately there has been no response." Gao Shun also said helplessly.

It turned out that Zhang Yang, who was in charge of the affairs in Bingzhou, immediately started preparing for the expedition as soon as he received Ding Yuan's order.But when Zhang Yang came to the bank of the Yellow River with his army and was about to cross the river, he accidentally saw Yuan Shao and Xu You who escaped from Luoyang.As soon as Zhang Yang saw Yuan Shao, he hurriedly asked Yuan Shao about the situation in Luoyang.

"General Yuan Shao, you just came from Luoyang. I wonder how the governor of my family is doing?" Seeing Yuan Shao, Zhang Yang asked anxiously.

"What's there to say? Dong Zhuo has already controlled Luoyang and the surrounding areas, and he has an army of 10,000+. Although Ding Shishi is brave, he only has [-] soldiers in his hands. What do you think will happen?" Zhang Yang, Yuan Shao said in a neutral tone.

"What should I do? It seems that my Lord Inspector may be in danger, so I have no choice but to urge the soldiers and horses to go as soon as possible." Zhang Yang muttered to himself, and began to urge the soldiers and horses to prepare to cross the Yellow River.

"Hmph, General Zhang Yang is rushing to Luoyang, do you think his life is too long? Do you think you can deal with Dong Zhuo with the strength in your hands? If Dong Zhuo is so easy to deal with, I Yuan Shao Are you in such a mess?" Looking at Zhang Yang's anxious look, Yuan Shao said angrily.

"Master Yuan Shao, what does this mean? Is there anything wrong with doing this?" Zhang Yang sensed the strangeness in Yuan Shao's words, and asked a little puzzled.

"Of course it's not right. At this time, Dong Zhuo has many generals and occupies Luoyang's geography. He is also a great general of the court and has a reputation for righteousness. But what does Ding Inspector have? If you are in Bingzhou now, do a good job for Ding Inspector. Guarding Bingzhou, if Ding Cishi is defeated, there is still a place to retreat. If you go to Luoyang now, once you lose, where will your tens of thousands of Bingzhou troops go? I advise you to think more about it before doing it. Make a decision so as not to confuse others or yourself." Yuan Shao said coldly to Zhang Yang, but his words were so thoughtful that Zhang Yang was dripping with sweat.

Zhang Yang was not interested in attacking Dong Zhuo at first, it was just that he had Ding Yuan's order and he couldn't disobey it. Now when he heard Yuan Shao's words, he felt that this trip was so dangerous, and he felt more fear in his heart. It means to cross the Yellow River.

"It's just that I have received the military order from Mr. Ding Inspector, but it is not easy to shirk the dispatch of troops. What should I do? Please General Yuan Shao teach me." Although Zhang Yang didn't want to go to Luoyang, he couldn't refuse Ding Yuan's order. , then looked at Yuan Shao, wanting to invite Yuan Shao to come up with an idea.

Yuan Shao looked at Zhang Yang, and hummed softly, Yuan Shao couldn't see what Zhang Yang was thinking, but since Yuan Shao saw Ding Yuan's reinforcements, he naturally wanted to stop him, he must have Ding Yuan scolding himself in the army tent, Yuan Shao is still vivid in his mind.

"Master Zhang Yang, don't worry about it. The situation in Luoyang was already on the verge of breaking out when I came here. As long as you delay on the road for a few more days, I believe the dust will settle in Luoyang, and naturally no one will blame your lord." Yuan Shao smiled sinisterly, Zhang Yang finally came up with an idea.

So Zhang Yang really pitched his tent by the Yellow River, and didn't move forward any further, just saying that he was looking for a boat to cross the river.Even at the critical moment when Li Jue's army attacked Gao Shun, Zhang Yang remained indifferent.It wasn't until Li Jue's army completely defeated Gao Shun's troops that Yuan Shao came to Zhang Yang's side again.

"Brother Zhang Yang, the world is in chaos today, and it is time for me to stand up as a hero. Brother Zhang Yang should hurry back to Bingzhou. In the future, the ZTE of the Han Dynasty will be rejuvenated, and I will ask you to contribute more." Yuan Shao looked at Zhang Yang and pulled him together. meaning is unmistakable.

"My lord Yuan Shao is popular all over the world. In the future, my lord will rejuvenate a big man. As long as there is something useful for me to make public, please just order me." Zhang Yang heard the meaning of wooing in Yuan Shao's words, and naturally agreed.

So the two of them reached a preliminary alliance of offense and defense in the future amidst laughter and laughter.

"My lord, I don't understand. Why did my lord stop Zhang Yang from reinforcing Ding Yuan? Wouldn't it be better to have Ding Yuan deal with Dong Zhuo?" After leaving Zhang Yang's camp, Xu You finally asked his doubts.

"Hahaha, Xu You, what do you think of my status as the fourth generation and third son of the Yuan family?" Yuan Shao ignored Xu You's question, and instead asked a rhetorical question.

"Hehe, the fourth generation and third son of the Yuan family have a respectable status, so how dare I say more." Yu said respectfully.

"Hmph, sir, what you said is a bit insincere. Although the fourth generation and third father of the Yuan family have produced a large number of talents, to put it bluntly, they are just looking after the old Liu family's home, guarding the home, and taking care of the family business. To be a slave or a servant, it is better to fight with reason and break out of your own world. The old Liu family has ruled the world for too long, it is too corrupt, it is time to change the family, and Dong Zhuo is the one who defeated the old Liu family. A pawn." Yuan Shao snorted coldly, and slowly expressed his thoughts.Xu You, who was on the side, was shocked.

All along, Xu You thought that he was smart and wise, planning to rule the world, but only at this moment did he realize that the Yuan Shao in front of him was shrewder and more insidious than himself.

"My lord, Shengming, Xu You is here to wish my lord great success and rule the world." Xu You raised his eyebrows and hurriedly congratulated Yuan Shao flatteringly.Xu You understood that since Yuan Shao had told him this secret, it meant that he was already Yuan Shao's confidant, but at the same time, he had to be more cautious in the future, otherwise he would be the first person Yuan Shao wanted to kill, because he had mastered the secret. revealed Yuan Shao's secret.

After listening to Gao Shun's narration, Ding Yuan and all the generals in the hall turned pale.You must know that Ding Yuan's army came to Luoyang this time, but only brought 3 people. Gao Shun lost [-] at the Yellow River Ferry. There are only fifteen thousand left.This is beyond everyone's control, and everyone has to worry about it.

"What should we do now?" One of the generals suddenly shouted with an ugly face, but the generals looked to be Hao Meng.

"Father, for the current plan, it is meaningless for our army to stay in Luoyang. Father may lead the troops back to the state, and my child is willing to end the army." Seeing the panic on the faces of the generals, Lu Bu stepped forward. Come out, suggested to Ding Yuan.

"Report, generals of the cavalry, an old acquaintance who claimed to be General Lu Bu came to the gate, and said he wanted to see General Lu Bu." At this moment, suddenly a soldier broke in and reported to everyone.

"At this time, how could there be my old acquaintance? What else did that person say?" Hearing the soldier's report, Lu couldn't believe it. He still had some acquaintances in Luoyang at this time.Thinking of this, Lu Bu's expression suddenly changed, as if he had thought of something.Could it be that Dong Zhuo sent someone to persuade him to surrender?Thinking of this, Lu Bu's expression suddenly became strange.Originally, Lu Bu had no intention of surrendering to Dong Zhuo, but once Ding Yuan knew that Dong Zhuo had sent someone to persuade him to surrender, would Ding Yuan have other thoughts?Thinking of this, Lu Bu immediately became worried.

"Hahaha, there are still friends coming to visit at this time, Lu Bu, go and see what's going on." Hearing the soldier's report, Ding Yuan laughed out loud, waved to Lu Bu, and Lu Bu stepped back.

"Let's step back first, and see what happened." Lu Bu replied to Ding Yuan, and then left Ding Yuan's tent.

After watching Lv Bu leave, Hao Meng stood up first, looked at Lv Bu's back and said leisurely: "At this time, Fengxian has no acquaintances, could it be that Dong Zhuo sent someone to persuade Fengxian to surrender? But why didn't Dong Zhuo It is too strange to directly persuade Lord Inspector to surrender, but only to find someone to persuade Fengxian to surrender." Hao Meng's words seemed to be casual, but in fact they were extremely vicious. Contacting Dong Zhuo's men at this time is a serious crime in itself. Although among the generals, there may not be any who want to surrender to Dong Zhuo, but no one dares to stand up and say it. By the way, I tested out the generals' ideas.

Sure enough, after Hao Meng's words came out, all the generals started talking about it, and people's hearts fluttered for a while.

"Hao Meng, what nonsense are you talking about? I have known General Lu for many years, and I know very well what General Lu is. It turned out to be Gao Shun.Of course, this is also because Lü Bu's generals are not here, otherwise, with the tempers of Dian Wei, Zang Ba and others, how could Hao Meng say such things.

"I'm just talking about it. Why is General Gao so angry? Although my words are not pleasant, I am always thinking of the governor." This Hao Meng is also a bachelor. Push the matter away from Wang Dingyuan.

Hao Meng saw this fact. Ding Yuan had doubts about Lu Bu. Otherwise, as Ding Yuan's adopted son, how could Lu Bu only control the combat power of the five thousand cavalry? If this is not to guard against Lu Bu, what is it?
"Okay, stop guessing. In fact, I want to try Lu Bu again this time. If he is loyal to the big man, I will lend him my head to help him gain Dong Zhuo's trust, so that he has the opportunity to kill Dong Zhuo, keep me safe. If he has other plans in his heart and wants to harm me, then maybe I can only kill the killer and clean up the house myself." Ding Yuan glanced at the generals coldly, Finally made up my mind. "Hao Meng, you choose five hundred knives and axes, and lay in ambush outside the tent. When Lu Bu comes back, he will obey my orders. He and the generals will stay in my tent to witness what is about to happen. "
