Chapter Fifty-Nine: Scheming White Waves, Laying a Solid Foundation
"Meng Tian, come and sit." Lu Bu rubbed his swollen temples, pointed to the seat on the side, and said with a smile to Wei Xu, who was standing in front of him.
A smile appeared on Wei Xu's face, and he intervened and said, "Oh! ”
Looking at Wei Xu, who is maturing day by day, and Lu Bu who is sitting in the handsome position, he still feels quite touched in his heart, and the special relationship between the two makes Lu Bu regard him as a confidant who can be relied on in his heart.
Although in the original history, Wei Xu finally betrayed Lu Bu, but the reason for this was because of some reasons of Lu Bu, which finally led to the emergence of this tragedy.
In this life, when it comes to the end of the Han Dynasty, Lu Bu will definitely not let that tragedy happen again.
"Meng Tian, in this expedition to Hedong, your performance is impressive." Looking at Wei Xu, who was a little restrained, Lu Bu had a smile on his face, and praised without hesitation: "There have been several battlefield trends, if it weren't for Meng Tian leading the Eagle Strike Battalion to attack, I'm afraid the battle situation would not have been so smooth." ”
Wei Xu bowed his head and said: "The lord ......"
"There is no one here, just you and me." Hearing Wei Xu say this, Lu Bu smiled and waved his hand and said, "What is the name of the lord of Laoshizi, call him brother-in-law!" ”
Hearing Lu Bu say this, Wei Xu's heart warmed and said, "It's brother-in-law!" What I did on the battlefield was far from what Wen Yuan and Jun Ming were doing. ”
"If it weren't for Wen Yuan and them leading the way to kill, according to the strength of my Eagle Strike Battalion, if they really encountered this fierce cavalry, I am afraid that they would be defeated in a few rounds."
After this period of training, coupled with the fact that there are generals like Zhang Liao, Dian Wei, Gao Shun, Xu Huang, and Lu Qian, Wei Xu's pride has completely dissipated, and it is replaced by a humble heart.
The most important point is that after experiencing those trials in the dream of war, Wei Xu understood a truth in his heart, if he wants to ensure that he continues to defeat his opponent on the battlefield, he must always improve himself, so that he can defeat a powerful opponent together with the robe that depends on life and death.
Under the inducement of various factors, Wei Xu is no longer the original Wei Xu.
Lu Bu stretched out his hand and patted Wei Xu's shoulder, and said with a slight smile: "Meng Tian can have such a thought, and he will be relieved in his heart." ”
Listening to his brother-in-law talk about this, Wei Xu read a few different flavors, which made his brows frown slightly, and his expression became serious.
"Compared to this White Wave Valley, Meng Tian, through your observation during this time, you have also found a little different, right?" Lu Bu looked at Wei Xu with a straight face, and said in a sonorous tone: "Baibo Valley itself is a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is located in the hinterland of Hedong, especially after this Hedong has experienced the disaster of the cavalry, the importance of this Baibo Valley is even more prominent. ”
"Coerced by the thief head Shile, now in the land of Baibo Valley, more than 100,000 people have gathered, and the local heroes have been uprooted. Coupled with the more than 20,000 slave troops captured by our army this time, if we can develop this Baibo Valley well, it is definitely an excellent place to settle down. ”
Wei Xu frowned slightly, and said with inquiry between his words: "Brother-in-law, do you mean to say that this Baibo Valley, we are not going to return it to Hedong County Guard?" ”
Listening to Wei Xu's words, Lu Bu smiled and nodded, yes, after this period of experience, this Wei Xu can be regarded as a bit of a general.
It may be said that Wei Xu before was just a general who led the troops to fight, but after following Lu Bu for so long, Lu Bu likes to hone Wei Xu, which also makes Wei Xu's vision improve a lot in the subtle time.
As the closest confidant under his command, Lu Bu can't tell other generals about his ambitions, but he can show them to Wei Xu.
Since it is said that the current Han family is already in a precarious state, and the alien forces that have been recruited are still in an unknown state, if Lu Bu wants to be uncontrolled by others in the future, then from now on, he must understand and plan his own foundation.
Although this Baibo Valley may be a little small compared to other places, for Lu Bu, whose power is in the early stage of development, if he can control this Baibo Valley, then even if he gets a stable rear to provide troops, this is a very crucial existence for Lu Bu who is going north to fight.
In addition, this Baibo Valley is located in the hinterland of Hedong, if there is a change in the Han family in the future, it can control this land east of the river according to its own favorable geographical location, and this land east of the river is connected to the state in the north, Jingzhou in the south, and according to the division in the middle.
It is precisely for this reason that Lu Bu has the idea of sending his henchmen and generals to secretly control this Baibo Valley.
Lu Bu nodded and said: "Meng Tian, now my Han family has been in chaos all my life, especially in the border region, this alien race is constantly moving up and down, and it seems that there is a heart against my Han family. ”
"You and I are both people who were born and grew up in Biansai, and we know better than anyone else in our hearts what kind of impact this alien race will have on the land of my annexation once this alien race is now on the border of my Han Dynasty."
"So in my heart, there has always been an idea, that is, to try to get an important position in the border area of the annex state, and lead the troops to curb the development of the Cypriot race there."
"But this family affair knows best from my family, your brother-in-law and I are from a humble background, and there is definitely a huge gap between me and the high-ranking official above the court, so if you want to make up for these gaps, you must consolidate them in other places, and this land of white wave valley will be very important to your brother-in-law in the future."
Wei Xu said solemnly: "Brother-in-law, don't worry, I will definitely guard this Baibo Valley and provide the most powerful help for the major events in my brother-in-law's heart." ”
Lu Bu said with a smile: "Okay, with Meng Tian's words, I can rest assured in my heart, how this Baibo Valley will develop in the future, I have already made detailed plans in advance." ”
"At the same time, in order to ensure that you are in Baibo Valley and can control the situation, in addition to Huang Shao and Bian Xi under your command will stay to assist you, I will also transfer He Yi, He Man, Pei Yuanshao, and Guan Hai to your command."
"Remember that when you develop in Baibo Valley, you must befriend the local gentry in Hedong, this is also a test for you, I hope Meng Tian can withstand such pressure." When he said this, Lu Bu stretched out his hand and patted Wei Xu's shoulder heavily.
It is impossible for Lu Bu to take all of them away from the seizure of Shile's subordinates this time, after all, when he returns to the important land of Luoyang, it is a huge whirlpool in itself.
If Lu Bu leads more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to return to the important land of Luoyang, I am afraid that it will not be long before it will be coveted by forces from all sides.
In order not to become a political victim of various forces, Lu Bu must know how to hide, and this place of Baibo Valley is the core place where he hides these forces.
Therefore, handing over such an important place as Baibo Valley to Wei Xu fully demonstrates Lu Bu's trust in him.
Wei Xu nodded heavily: "Huh! ”
After solving these worries, Lu Bu can also lead his subordinates with peace of mind and return to Luoyang, after all, if you want to get the official position you want, you still need to plan it yourself, and what you get by others will always be an unreliable existence.
