Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 255

Chapter 250 Five

"General Bao Xin, you are back, go to the meeting hall quickly, the princes are all there." As soon as Bao Xin entered the city gate, a soldier came to salute Bao Xin and said.

It turned out that Dong Zhuo was aggressively attacking, and at this time the princes were discussing the next move in the conference hall.

"I see. Have you seen my younger brother Bao Tao come back these days?" Bao Xin was not in a hurry to meet the other princes, but asked the soldier about Bao Tao's news.

"This? The villain hasn't heard from General Bao Tao these days." Although the soldier didn't know what happened, he still said the same thing seeing Bao Xin's anxious expression.

Seeing that he didn't inquire about Bao Tao's news, Bao Xin couldn't help but sighed, he stopped hesitating, turned around and walked towards the meeting hall.Since Bao Xin was in the vanguard and was defeated by Hua Xiong in just one day, Yuan Shao, who was the follow-up force, still did not leave Chenliu at this time, which saved a lot of trouble for the coalition forces of the princes.

"Everyone, we have received news that after Bao Xin was defeated by Hua Xiong, his life and death are unknown. Now Dong Zhuo has arrived at Sishui Pass. At the right time, Qi soldiers and horses will pass from Sishui Pass, pass Xingyang, Zhongmou, and come straight to Chenliu. ” Cao Cao said to the princes when they saw the princes arriving.

"It's all that useless guy Bao Xin, but he was defeated by Hua Xiong in a day, and his life and death are unknown. This is really too embarrassing." Hearing Cao Cao's words, Hanoi prefect Wang Kuang said angrily.

"I'm a vassal, everyone is for the great Han country, so why say such useless words, now that the enemy troops are approaching the city, it's better to say something useful." Seeing Wang Kuang's rude words, Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou, said unhappily, Bao As Prime Minister of Jinbei, Xin had some friendship with Liu Dai, so it's no wonder Liu Dai wanted to speak for Bao Xin.

"Okay, don't say these things are useless, let's think about how to deal with Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo has won a battle. At this time, morale is high. It is not easy for our army to compete with him. Instead, we should stick to Chen Liu and look for opportunities. Defeat the enemy again." Shangdang prefect Zhang Yang said suddenly at this time.

"I'm afraid it's inappropriate to do this. Our allied forces of the princes came here to eliminate thieves for the country. If we only want to be the king of the city, we might as well go back to our own fiefs. It's not too late to stick to each other." Beiping prefect Gongsun Zan was obviously not optimistic about Zhang Yang's suggestion.

"What you said is all right, but now that our army is newly defeated, it is not easy to make a big move. Since Dong Zhuo is leading the army, we might as well stay in Chenliu first, wait for work, and wait until the enemy army shows fatigue. It's not too late to annihilate." Seeing that the princes were having a hard time making a decision, Cao Cao got up and suggested to them.

"I think Mr. Cao's words are feasible, but Dong Zhuo's army's morale is high now, but it's not easy to confront him head-on." Tao Qian, governor of Xuzhou, was a prudent person. Seeing that Cao Cao's opinion was good, he also agreed.

"Dong Zhuo's army is exhausted from a long distance, and our army is divided into two groups. As long as our side can hold Dong Zhuo, I believe that the other army will have good news. If the two groups of soldiers are afraid to move forward, then What hope is there for the great cause of the great Han Zhongxing?" Just when the princes had just agreed on the plan, a figure walked in and said to the princes.This person is Bao Xin who just returned to Chenliu.

"General Bao Xin, you are back, haha, I knew that General Bao Xin is a lucky man, and he will return safely." Seeing Bao Xin coming in, Cao Cao hurriedly stood up and greeted him.However, Bao Xin did not comment on the proposal.

"General Bao Xin's safe return is naturally worthy of congratulations, but General Bao Xin must have suffered a heavy loss in this battle, so why encourage us to attack at this time? Doesn't it mean that General Bao Xin felt that his defeat was not miserable enough?" Is it?" Although Cao Cao didn't comment on Bao Xin's words, not all the princes were good-tempered. Hanoi prefect Wang Kuang originally thought that Bao Xin's defeat this time had disgraced the princes, but he didn't expect it. This Bao Xin, despite his own defeat, even pointed fingers at the other princes. In Wang Kuang's view, it was unreasonable for Bao Xin, a defeated general, to be so arrogant.

"You? I fight for the country and for the country. Although defeat is glorious, you, Wang Kuang, are just hiding behind. What right do you have to mock me?" Bao Xin knew that Bao Tao did not return to Chenliu in time, so he hoped that the princes The coalition forces can send troops, so that even if Bao Tao makes a mistake, the army will naturally take care of it as soon as it arrives.But if the army retreats in Chenliu, then Bao Tao can only rely on his own strength to escape.It was precisely because he was worried about Bao Tao's life and death that Bao Xin decided to send troops, but he did not expect Wang Kuang to be so shameless.

"Okay, stop arguing. General Bao Xin has worked hard, so let's go back and rest first. All the princes here have already understood your loyalty to the country, and you will definitely lose your share in the battle in the future." Seeing that the hall was full of quarrels, Yuan Shao had no choice but to calm down, and asked someone to bring Bao Xin down to rest first.

"General Qi, outside the city Hua Xiong has brought 2 horses to the city to challenge and is calling for battle." Just as Bao Xin left, soldiers rushed in to report to the princes.

"What? Hua Xiong chased after him so quickly, but we just received the news of Sishui Pass." Hearing that Hua Xiong had already killed the door, all the princes became nervous, although these people looked down on Hua Xiong psychologically. Bao Xin was defeated, but everyone didn't dare to underestimate Bao Xin's strength, and it was not for nothing that he could definitely be the forward of the allied forces of the princes.So when they heard the news about Hua Xiong's Killing Sect, everyone still felt a little guilty.

"Hahaha, although Hua Xiong is known as the number one fierce general in Xiliang, this happened a long time ago. Ma Teng has been in Xiliang for a long time, and his son Ma Chao is said to be even more skilled in martial arts. If Ma Teng is here, he can make Ma Chao and Hua Xiong came to fight for the title of No. [-] in Xiliang. It's a pity that although Ma Teng's army is also one of the allied forces of the princes, it is far away in Xiliang and cannot come to the meeting. However, a little Hua Xiong will not be a problem for us if we think about it. These Han elites from all over the world." Seeing that the princes were a little nervous, Cao Cao hurried out and joked with everyone.

"Meng De is right. Wasn't Hua Xiong very good at Sishuiguan? Today we just beheaded this thief, and let the world know that we are the real strength of the big man. Who will take Hua Xiong's head with me? Come?" Yuan Shao looked around at the surrounding princes and generals around them, and said confidently.

After what Cao Cao and Yuan Shao said, the emotions of all the princes stabilized, and they became full of confidence in this battle.

"Young general is not talented, I would like to cut off Hua Xiong's head and offer it under the tent to serve wine for all the generals." Just after Yuan Shao finished speaking, a big man next to him jumped out and said to the princes Taishou.

As soon as he finished speaking, the general turned around abruptly, and walked out of the tent without looking back, obviously very confident in killing Hua Xiong.

"Oh, who is this man? He really is a warrior." Seeing the general's aura, Yuan Shao said in amazement.

"This is Yu She, the general under my tent. Killing Hua Xiong is like picking something out of a bag." Wang Kuang, the prefect of Hanoi, stretched out his hand to stick his sticky beard, and said seriously.

Seeing the calm expressions of Yu She and Wang Kuang, all the princes believed it was true, and their views on Wang Kuang also changed greatly.At the beginning, all the princes didn't care about Wang Kuang. Wang Kuang must have been opportunistic, so he took Hanoi and became the prefect of Hanoi.But at this moment, all the princes felt that it was no wonder that Wang Kuang would dismiss Bao Xin, and it turned out that he had some knowledge.

"Hey, when the hen flies on the shelf, I thought it could turn into a phoenix. It's so ridiculous." Just as the princes were celebrating Wang Kuang's arrival again, a discordant voice came out, but it was Peiping. A dark-faced man behind the prefect spoke again.

"Where did you come from to talk so shamelessly? What kind of official position are you? I'm waiting to discuss important matters, so you don't have a place to speak." Seeing how rude this black-faced man was, Wang Kuang reprimanded him unceremoniously.

The black-faced man was about to step forward to say something, but was stopped by a middle-aged man with a fair face who stretched out his hand, and then the white-faced man stood up.

"The next one is after King Jing of Zhongshan, honoring the emperor's great-great-grandson Liu Bei, so is Liu Xuande. The one next to me is my sworn brother Zhang Fei." It turned out that the three standing behind Beiping prefect Gongsun Zan were the three Liu Bei brothers.

"It turns out to be a member of the royal family. Come here, sit down." Upon hearing that Liu Bei is a member of the royal family, Yuan Shao quickly stood up to say hello, and asked someone to bring a stool to Liu Bei.

"Dare to ask, since this is a member of the royal family, what position does he currently occupy, and where does he have a high position?" Seeing that Liu Bei is a member of the Han family, Wang Kuang could only swallow back the words of reprimand, but Wang Kuang Obviously I have never heard of Liu Bei, so I have this question.

"I'm ashamed to say that. Although Bei has made great achievements many times, the imperial court is so filthy, so he is idle at home. He has no fame and fame, but only a white body." Lu Bu couldn't help sighing when he heard Wang Kuang's question.

"White body? Huh, a businessman and a pawn, he is also worthy of being called a member of the royal family, and sits with me?" Seeing that Liu Bei was white, Wang Kuang's face changed, obviously dismissing Liu Bei's white body.

It turns out that Liu Bei made a lot of contributions in the crusade against the Yellow Turbans. Unfortunately, because he had no money to bribe the officials, he couldn't be resettled for a while. Later, because he was helped by other Qingliu, he got a job as the county magistrate of Pingyuan. Unfortunately, the good times were not good. Long, although Liu Bei loves the people like a son, how can the darkness of the court allow others to be alone. In the end, Liu Bei had no choice but to abandon his official position and leave until he met Gongsun Zan.

"Is this the Liu Xuande who conquered the Yellow Turbans? I think that when the Yellow Turbans were crusaded back then, even though Cao was a riding captain, he often heard that there were three heroes with outstanding martial arts skills who killed countless Yellow Turbans. It was even heard that Dong Zhuo was also killed by the Yellow Turbans. Did you three brothers save it?" Seeing Wang Kuang being unreasonable, Cao Cao suddenly stood up and said.
