Chapter 239: New Year's Day

Zhang Xiu and the others looked at Lu Bu with a gloomy face, Kong Wu's powerful palm was holding on to the injured palm of Fang Cai's bloody alliance, and the evil qi on it spread rapidly in all directions like a tide.

Zhang Xiu and his entourage felt the strong evil aura of the lord, and their faces were involuntarily pale, and a drop of sweat the size of a bean dripped down uncontrollably, and their shirts had already been wet with sweat like a chicken in soup.

Fortunately, the evil qi on Lu Bu disappeared like a tide, if it weren't for the pale faces of everyone present as if a breeze could blow it down, and they thought that the original evil qi had never appeared.

"You said that since Ben General agreed to Zhou Qi'er's alliance, how should he deal with the other party's demands after next year, and can the enemy who can escape from this person be easily defeated?" Lu Bu's cold voice sounded in everyone's ears, and in the next second, he felt like a god sitting above the nine heavens looking down on everyone present.

At the moment when Lu Bu asked, everyone's eyes involuntarily fell on Li Ru, who let the other party be a military advisor.

Seeing everyone's gaze, Li Ru had a feeling of wanting to die, without such a trick, didn't he already have it once, so again and again, he really thought that he was good-tempered, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and his triangular eyes like rats stared at the faces of everyone present.

Zhang Xiu and the others looked at each other with a downcast gaze in the face of Li Ru's gaze, not worrying about being beaten by this person, but not everyone was like this, and there were some generals who had been pitted by Li Ru at the beginning, and they couldn't help but lower their heads one by one when they saw the other party's unkind gaze, as if they were worried about the follow-up retaliation.

Although Li Ru was dissatisfied with everyone, he still had no choice but to go to Lu Bulu who was standing in front of him, with a respectful look on his face, "My lord, we can send General Han Sui or General Ma Teng to send troops, so that we can not only fulfill Fang Cai's promise to Zhou Qi'er, but also relieve the pressure of internal troubles!" ”

Han Sui and Ma Teng in the crowd showed a pale look on their faces when they heard this, if they really followed Li Ru's description, they led the soldiers and horses on an expedition, and God knows how many soldiers and horses would be left after returning.

Hearing this, a gleam flashed in Lu Bu's eyes, and he seemed to be satisfied with Li Ru's analysis, after all, the big stone that could be lifted high in his heart could go down safely, and the only way to solve the internal trouble was to solve it.

"My lord, if we send soldiers and horses to go, will we be angered by the thunder of Emperor Liu Xie, the son of the Han Dynasty?" Ma Teng showed a solemn look on his face, although he felt helpless to kill people like Lu Bu with a knife, if he might be able to resist one or two before surrendering, now that most of the military power has been divided, resisting again is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

Lu Bu heard this, a heavy look flashed in his eyes, Ma Teng's words were not the worry in his heart, although he did not have the slightest fear of Emperor Liu Xie of the Han Dynasty, but at this time, the world was still the country of the Han Dynasty, and Zhou Qi and Zhou Haoran were still the nominal Han Dynasty, God knows whether this person is really obedient to the Han Dynasty, this has to be guarded against.

"My lord! According to a certain family, General Han Sui is the most suitable to send troops this time, and there are eight generals under his command

can go on an expedition, and the generals under Liu Zhang's command can't easily block their edge! After Li Ru heard Ma Teng's words, he thought that the other party was the famous general General Fubo, who was loyal to the Han dynasty after that, and this attack on Yizhou was even more of a Han clan, so it was strange that the other party could agree.

On the contrary, Han Sui did not have much respect for the Han Dynasty, and it was also a big trouble in the hearts of the lord, although he had now surrendered to the lord Lu Bu on the surface, but there were still some small actions behind the scenes that people had to guard against.

Han Sui's pale face became even more ugly when he heard this, like the bottom of a black pot that had not been cleaned for ten thousand years, his eyes were slightly red and he looked at Li Ru on the side, and he almost scolded, but fortunately, the quality of being a hero broke out, and he tried his best to restrain himself, "Mr. Li Ru, you have a sin that you don't think you have, why do you want to put me to death like this?" ”

In the face of Han Sui's questioning, everyone around couldn't help but look at Li Ru one by one, even if the other party felt a little pressure on everyone, but who could ensure that Han Sui's affairs in the future would not be a lesson for themselves.

"Hahaha! Han Wenyue is not a certain family that has any grudges with you, and will not let you lead the soldiers and horses to die, this expedition will give you the greatest assistance, as for the military generals, how do you see the trapping camp of General Zhang Liao and General Gao Shun? Li Ru didn't care about Han Sui's cold gaze at all, as if the other party's gaze did not fall on him, but instead looked like he was thinking about the other party.

Han Sui was slightly stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect how easily the other party could send out the most elite camp under Lu Bu, if there was this force, it would not be difficult to conquer Yizhou.

Seeing that Han Sui's already somewhat relaxed complexion, Li Ru released a bombshell again, as if a grenade had been thrown on the calm lake, "As for the military generals who escorted the grain and grass, how about sending General Zhang Xiu, this person is the Northland Spear King, and the military value is even more first-class generals, so that the grain and grass can sit back and relax!" ”

"Gollum!" Han Sui squirmed and swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and saw that the eyes of everyone present looking at him at this time were full of envy, it seemed that this expedition had dispatched the most elite soldiers and horses under Lu Bu's command, if he couldn't conquer Yizhou, it would really be intolerable!

Li Ru seemed to be very satisfied with everyone's expressions, stretched out his left hand and twisted his beard, and looked at Han Sui with some flutter, "If this doesn't satisfy you, I don't know how about the lord himself when necessary?" ”

"Boom!" An explosion sounded in everyone's ears like thunder on the ground, and they all looked at each other with incredible expressions, how could they not believe that the lord Lu Bu would go on an expedition when necessary, to know that he was the most powerful general in the Han Dynasty.

Lu Bu's brows furrowed slightly when he heard this, but when he saw the gaze that Li Ru secretly cast on him, he hid it in the next second as if he had never appeared, as if he had acquiesced to the other party's words.

"Boom!" There was another explosion, looking at the silent lord, everyone was already sure in their hearts that what Li Ru said was true, and whether such a lineup could conquer Yizhou.

Even Han Sui unconsciously chapped his lips at this time, his eyes were slightly red and he looked at each other, and his hoarse voice sounded like a ghost coming out of the abyss.

In this case, a certain family will lead the soldiers and horses under his command to meet Liu Zhang's Bashu clan for a while, and let the world know that our Longyou clan is not easy to bully! ”

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but show a crazy look on their faces, obviously agreeing with Han Sui's words, after all, many of the people present at the moment were from Longyou, even if it was Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian, although he was not from the Longyou Shi clan, as Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, he could not but become a member of the Longyou Shi clan by default.

Seeing that everyone disappeared, Lu Bu sat silently in his original seat without the slightest intention of leaving, and I don't know how long it took to see a thin shadow quietly walking back, seeing the shadow in the dark, he hurriedly clasped his hands into fists and bowed slightly, as if waiting for the other party's inquiry.

"My good brother-in-law, Li Ru, why do you want to help Han Sui so much, shouldn't you secretly weaken the other party's strength?" A cold voice came out of Lu Bu's mouth, and he couldn't understand why the other party was like this.

"Where does the lord dare to fool you in a certain family, the reason why he helped Han Sui so vigorously is that he can better consume the opponent's strength, let it perish, and make it crazy!" Li Ru felt the pressure disappear little by little, and his pale face finally regained a hint of redness.

"I hope you can complete the mission better, if else you know the general's methods!" Lu Bu looked at the other party with a cold expression, then stood up and walked towards the outside of the house, not caring at all about Li Ru, who had eyes like poisonous snakes in the dark, and didn't seem to be worried that the other party would kill the master.

Time passed day by day, and when the people of the Han Dynasty were preparing to meet the end of 195, Zhou Qi and Zhou Haoran, who had disappeared from the public eye for a long time, finally reappeared.

The group of heroes who looked like ants on the pot looked at the secret letter in their hands, with a heartfelt smile on their faces, and the big stone raised high in their hearts could finally be put down safely, and they didn't want to have a peaceful year near the end of the year.

At this time, Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Jiaozhou three by the Han Dynasty master Zhou Qi Zhou Haoran governed the territory, now the people are living a happy life, near the end of the year in front of every household hanging red lanterns, the city is full of laughter.

When Zhou Qi and Zhou Haoran of Xiangyang City, Jingzhou, returned, they accompanied their wives to tour the mountains and rivers all day long, admiring the ice flowers hanging high in the snow all around, even if the military affairs were put in the back of their minds, but they left their brother Zhou Yu and Zhou Gongjin to share the burden.

In the face of such a hand-shaking shopkeeper, although Zhou Yu was a little dissatisfied in his heart, who let the other party be his most spoiled younger brother, fortunately, with the help of Guo Jia and others, the matter can be solved by the wind, and it will not be too distracting, and he can return home to play the chord with Xiao Qiao's two wives.

Everyone seems to have acquiesced to the lord's approach, after all, they know that there will be another expedition after the New Year, God knows how long this expedition will last, rather than working at night, it is better to let everyone relax the tense heartstrings.

In a luxurious mansion in Jingzhou, at this moment, a rather beautiful woman stood in the cold snow, with a sad look on her face, as if she was trying her best to look at the official road in the distance, hoping that someone would come from afar... to be continued
