Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 498 Invite Sun Ce

"Hey, Lu Bu, I will let you go today and leave." Zhang Fei saw Liu Bei and Guan Yu go away, and Dian Wei and Xu Chu also chased after him. Naturally, he had no intention of continuing to fight with Lu Bu, so he laughed. , turned the horse's head, and wanted to leave.

"I still want to leave at this time, I'm afraid it's too late." Lu Bu was irritated by Zhang Fei long ago, how could he let Zhang Fei go so easily, and hurried forward, with Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand, and threw it at Zhang Fei again go.

"It's really annoying." Seeing Lu Bu attacking, Zhang Fei felt helpless. Although Zhang Fei really wanted to get rid of Lu Bu at this time, with Lu Bu's force, Zhang Fei could only deal with it carefully, otherwise he would suffer a big loss at any time.

"General, we brought Liu Bei." Just at this moment, when the voice came, a group of people came not far from the two of them.

Lu Bu turned his head and saw Dian Wei, Xu Chu and Zhang Liao surrounding Liu Bei, with Guan Yu and Hua Xiong glaring behind him, and they were walking towards this side.

"It seems that we don't need to fight anymore." Seeing the crowd coming, Lu Bu slowly put away Fang Tian's painted halberd, and stopped approaching Zhang Fei.

"Whoever dares to touch my elder brother, I will let him die without a place to bury him." Seeing Liu Bei being brought by Lu Bu's men, Zhang Fei was furious, and hurriedly rode his horse towards Liu Bei.

"Stop, come here again, don't blame us for being rude." Just as Zhang Fei was about to approach Liu Bei, the three of them, Xu Chudian, Wei, and Zhang Liao pointed their weapons at Liu Bei's vital point at the same time. If they stepped forward, they would kill Liu Bei on the spot without hesitation.

"Third brother, don't be reckless, don't kill your elder brother." Seeing Zhang Fei like this, Guan Yu quickly stopped talking. Unlike Zhang Fei, Guan Yu knew that Lu Bu didn't care about Liu Bei's life or death. It is possible to kill Liu Bei.

"Third Brother, you step down. The Prime Minister and I are old friends. The Prime Minister is just talking to me about something, so you don't have to make a fuss." At this moment, Liu Bei suddenly said.After Liu Bei said this, Zhang Fei finally calmed down, and stood with Yu Yu who came from the side to block him, and clenched his hands again and again, obviously trying to calm down the unhappiness in his heart.

"Hahaha, the ancients said: Those who know the current affairs are heroes, and Mr. Liu is indeed a gentleman. Please enter the city with me, and the two generals, Guan and Zhang, gather Xuzhou soldiers and horses to station outside the city. I don't know what you think?" Seeing that everyone's emotions had stabilized, Lu Bu laughed and said to Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

"Everything is arranged by the prime minister. Second brother, I will leave the affairs outside the city to you. Help me take care of the third brother, and don't let him have any troubles again." Liu Bei knew that he could not disobey Lu Bu's intention, so he could only insist Scalp smiled and said to Guan and Zhang.

"Brother don't worry, younger brother knows what to do." Looking at Liu Bei, Guan Yu forcefully forced a smile and said affirmatively.

"I don't know how the Prime Minister plans to deal with Liu Bei?" A few days later, Chen Gong rushed to Shouchun with an army, and when he heard about Lu Bu's detention of Liu Bei, he immediately came to Lu Bu and asked.

"Hehe, I plan to detain Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Ce and bring them back to Chang'an for house arrest. I don't know what Gongtai thinks?" Hearing Chen Gong's question, Lu Bu said with a smile.

"It would be good to bring all three of them back to Chang'an and put them under house arrest, but now the prime minister is using Xun Yu again and keeping Guo Jia by his side. Both of them are Cao Cao's former troops. The general keeps Cao Cao in Chang'an. There will be something wrong, and it may not be impossible for some incidents to arise." Hearing Lu Bu's intention to imprison the three of them in Chang'an at the same time, Chen Gong already understood Lu Bu's intention.Now that the princes of the world, Yuan Shao is at war with Gongsun Zan, with Gao Shun's help, it will be very difficult for Yuan Shao to destroy Gongsun Zan.The only ones who can threaten Lu Bu in the future are Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Sun Ce. If these three fall into Lu Bu's hands, then Lu Bu will rule the world.It's just a matter of time.

However, Lu Bu's most important minister was Xun Yu, who was Cao Cao's former subordinate. Bringing Cao Cao back to Chang'an made Chen Gong feel a little uneasy, but this made Lu Bu slightly startled.

"Send Yang Hong to Lujiang to meet Sun Ce tomorrow, and invite Sun Ce to come to the Shouchun meeting." After a while, Lu Bu changed the subject and ordered Chen Gong.

However, after Sun Ce occupied Lujiang, he was preparing to continue the northern expedition, but was stopped by Zhou Yu.

"I heard that Lu Bu has already entered Yangzhou, and Cao Cao has also led his troops to join him. The general is now heading north. Doesn't he want to follow Cao Cao's example and join Lu Bu?" Zhou Yu said bluntly when he came to Sun Ce.

"What does Gong Jin mean? You and I joined forces to become famous in the world and make a career. Why did it be Gong Jin who persuaded me to send troops before, and came to stop me this time?" Although Sun Quan and Zhou Yu sympathized Brother, but at this time, he is also a prince who dominates one side, so if he can bear Zhou Yu's words, he naturally expects him to be unkind.

"Hahaha, it seems that my lord has understood what I mean. This time, Lu Bu met with my lord and Liu Bei to send troops to attack Yuan Shu. Now that Yuan Shu is no longer a threat, who will Lu Bu deal with next?" Zhou Yu first laughed, and then After changing the subject, he said seriously.

"You mean, Lu Bu will deal with us next?" Hearing Zhou Yu's words, Sun Ce was startled, and immediately thought of himself. It's not that Sun Ce thought Liu Bei and Cao Cao were incompetent, but that Liu Bei only occupied Xuzhou. At that time, it was even more unbearable. The sphere of influence was only in the Wancheng area. How could such strength compete with Lu Bu? At this time, Sun Ce's power had almost occupied half of the south of the Yangtze River. Because of Lv Bu's vassal power, that's why Sun Ce felt that Lv Bu's soldiers and horses had reached their birthdays at this time, so maybe he didn't have any plans to compete with him.

"Since Lu Bu raised his army from Liangzhou, he has always relied on cavalry to fight. The five thousand wolf cavalry around him are the strongest cavalry in the world today. However, although this kind of cavalry is invincible in the north, when it comes to the south of the Yangtze River, even Yangzhou The location with many mountains and rivers is already difficult to play an effective role, so the subordinates thought that Lu Bu would definitely attack Liu Bei and Cao Cao first, and then deal with Yuan Shao in the north while training the navy in Yangzhou. When Yuan Shao is wiped out, the When Lv Bu's army went south, he broke through Jingzhou and our Soochow. Because of this, the subordinates suggested that the lord should attack Yuan Shu and take some of the land in Jiangbei. With these lands in Jiangbei, the lord can start training in Lu Bu. At the same time as the navy, we trained our own cavalry, and when Lu Bu and Yuan Shao fought, we launched the Northern Expedition. If we can unite with Liu Biao of Jingzhou and Liu Zhang of Yizhou to attack at the same time, the general will have a lot to do, and the victory in the Central Plains will certainly be just around the corner.” Seeing my own words, I have already It attracted enough attention from Sun Ce, and Zhou Yu talked eloquently, telling about the road to hegemony he designed for Sun Ce, which aroused Sun Ce's excitement.

"Okay, okay, okay." Sun Ce repeatedly cheered and said, "If it's like Gongjin said, then Gongjin, you will be the hero of my country, Sun Ce, who will found the country in the future."

"Report," at this moment a soldier came over to Sun Ce and said, "Lü Bu sent an envoy to see the lord."

"An envoy? Tell him to come here." Sun Ce was slightly puzzled, glanced at Zhou Yu next to him, and then ordered.

After a while, the soldiers came over with a somewhat haggard middle-aged scribe, this person Sun Ce had met in Yuan Shu's tent, and it was Yang Hong who was working under Yuan Shu's tent.

"I, Yang Hong, have met the young general. I haven't seen him for a long time. The young general has become more and more powerful, and he has not lost to the general's father. It's really a tiger father without a dog." When he came to Sun Ce, Yang Hong saluted first, then got up and looked at Sun Ce praised.Sun Ce's growth shocked Yang Hong a lot. Even seeing Sun Ce now, Yang Hong still couldn't believe it. Sun Ce, who was attached to Yuan Shu in the past, would now have such achievements and become the overlord of the dominant side.

"Hehe, thank you for your compliment, sir. I haven't seen you for a long time. I heard that you have already served under the prime minister. It is indeed a good job." Seeing Yang Hong at this time, Sun Ce had a feeling of returning to his hometown. Under Yuan Shu's tent, Yang Hong and others are so self-righteous. Now that Yuan Shu is captured by Lu Bu and Ji Ling is killed in battle, Yang Hong can only steal from Lu Bu to survive. , this gap is really amazing.

"General, I killed the villain. The villain is just living under the prime minister's account. This time I came here to convey the prime minister's message. The prime minister said that this time I was able to wipe out the false enemy Yuan Shu, and the general owes a lot to it." Wei, so I specially ordered the villain to come and invite the general to a banquet in Shouchun, so that the court can reward him." Yang Hong saluted Sun Ce again and explained the purpose of his trip.

"Oh, I don't know what rewards the court has this time? By the way, Yuan Shu was captured, so is the Chuan Guo Yuxi whereabouts?" Hearing that the court wanted to reward him, Sun Fang couldn't help but his heart moved, and he asked, but he immediately thought of it About Chuan Guo Yuxi, he asked repeatedly.

"Hehe, the general said it. I'm just a small person. How can I know such a secret matter, such a big matter. The general should go to Shouchun and ask the Prime Minister." Seeing that Sun Ce really wanted to go to Shouchun, Yang Hong said quickly.

"Hmph, I'm afraid that the prime minister not only wants my lord to go to Shouchun, but also wants my lord to go to Chang'an." Seeing that Sun Ce seemed to want to agree, Zhou Yu who was beside him suddenly said sarcastically.

When Zhou Yu said this, he immediately poured cold water on Sun Ce. Sun Ce has always been proud and blindsided. If it weren't for the fact that his opponent this time was the invincible Lu Bu, Sun Ce would naturally not have so many scruples. As for Lu Bu, Sun Ce could only calm down and suppress his desire to go to Shouchun.

"I heard that the general has the prestige of a bully in Jiangdong. If the general is afraid of any danger on this trip, he might as well bring more soldiers and horses with him. It will not be a hindrance." Seeing Sun Ce's thoughts, Yang Hong said.
