Among the civil and military officials, there are many smart people, Liu Hong proposed the establishment of the Xiyuan New Army in order to divide He Jinjun's power, which was seen by almost everyone, but only a few people saw his true intentions, but he was preparing for Liu Xie's accession to the throne in the future, among these people, Lu Bu is naturally one, after all, he is a professor specializing in the study of the Three Kingdoms.

The news of the establishment of the Xiyuan New Army spread on the same day, and Yuan Shao even held a banquet for this, and naturally invited Lu Bu to come.

Yuan Shao's face was full of red light, just in response to that sentence, people are in good spirits when they are happy, no matter who comes forward to toast, they will not refuse to drink it all. Lu Bu looked at his performance at this time, recalled the ending of the eighth lieutenant of the West Garden, and couldn't help but sigh a little, and wanted to remind him, not to mention whether everyone believed it or not, this scene alone was not the time to talk about it.

However, Lu Bu's actions were fully watched by another person, and this person was Cao Cao. Regarding the establishment of the Xiyuan New Army by Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao sensitively felt that this matter would not be as simple as it seemed on the surface, but he couldn't figure it out, and he was still thinking about it during the banquet.

At the moment, Cao Cao was silent.

The banquet lasted until midnight, when Cao Cao found an opportunity to get Lübula into his car again.

This is the second time that Lu Bu has sat in this comfortable carriage, found a comfortable position and lay down and said, "Captain Cao, I don't know why you are looking for me, I am afraid of being attacked by thieves again." Since the last attack, the relationship between the two has warmed up a lot, and they have become friends with each other.

Sometimes the friendship between men is so simple, just a few contacts, you can make a heart-to-heart, Lu Bu and Yuan Shao, and then Cao Cao are the same, I have to say that these two people can have later achievements, and their personal charm is really extraordinary. And these two people also admired Lu Bu's personality and behavior, so the three of them became close friends, and when there were no outsiders present, they were much less restrained.

In the face of Lu Bu's sarcasm, Cao Cao was not annoyed, and scolded with a smile: "You, Lu Fengxian, actually entertained me." Let's talk about Brother Wei, why are you in a bad mood at today's banquet? But seeing that I and Benchu have been promoted, are you jealous? ”

"Hahahaha, Brother Meng De, you, you, you can not let my little brother me at all!" Hearing Cao Cao's words, Lu Bu laughed loudly, neither of them is such a small-bellied person, and this kind of joke will not go to heart.

After laughing, the two sides fell into silence, Cao Cao was waiting for Lu Bu to answer his questions, but Lu Bu didn't know where to start, and the atmosphere became a little solemn for a while.

After being silent for a long time, Lu Bu let out a long breath and said, "Brother Mengde, listen to the advice of the younger brother." ”

"You say." Cao Cao looked directly at Lu Bu.

Lu Bu also looked at Cao Cao, his eyes were full of openness and sincerity, and he said word by word: "Maintenance, protection, emperor, unification!" ”

Cao Cao was silent after hearing this, closed his eyes and fell into deep thought, and Lu Bu also kept silent and looked at him quietly.

After a while, Cao Cao opened his eyes again, a glint flashed in his eyes, and he clenched his fists and said to Lu Bu: "Thank you Brother Xian for saving me!" ”

Lu Bu shook his head and smiled: "Brother Meng De, in fact, you are just a fan of the authorities. Now Luoyang is like a huge whirlpool, it is difficult to get out if it has come in, whether it is the ten permanent servants, scholars, relatives or royalists, the relationship between these parties is intricate and intricate, and the slightest carelessness is the end of broken bones. ”

Cao Cao nodded and said, "Brother Xian is right. I think that the foolish brother wanted to rejuvenate the Han Dynasty with his enthusiasm and reproduce the prestige of my Han Dynasty, and he has always taken this as the goal of his struggle. However, now the Han family is tired and waiting to be lifted, but most of these scholars and doctors in the court are still fighting for power and profit for their own selfish desires, and the party is fighting for the party, in fact, it is not just a few people jumping up and down. ”

"Exactly. Now that the emperor has established a new army, he intends to divide power among the generals, which is visible to anyone with a discerning eye. In the four hundred years since the Han Dynasty lasted, there were not many similar things, and now that the Yellow Turban has just been leveled, it is logical for the emperor to set up a new army at this moment, but brother, I have taken into account another point, so I reminded my brother. ”

"Heir." Cao Cao said affirmatively.

"Brother Meng De is clever!" Lu Bu clenched his fists and said.

Cao Cao stroked his beard under his chin and said, "It's still a virtuous brother, and you think far-reaching." Now the emperor has a dragon body...... The prince's matter has not been established for a long time, everyone can see that the emperor likes the prince of the prince born by the beauty of the king, although this abolition of the long and young is not the ancestral system, but when it is very time, it should do extraordinary things, the prince is weak, and the prince is smart, for the sake of the Han Jiangshan Society, it is indeed more suitable for the prince of Xie. ”

The two of them did not deliberately lower their voices when they spoke, and in this silent night, even if they were a little away from the carriage, they could listen to it intently. Lu Bu didn't react when he heard Cao Cao's words, although he had come to this era for a long time, but after all, the imprint of the previous life was too deep, and he didn't have too much awe of imperial power, and Cao Cao often spoke amazingly.

But Cao Hongke, who was driving outside, was different, especially in the territory of Luoyang, if he said this kind of nonsense about the emperor, if he was listened to by someone with a heart, treating them with great disrespect would be the lightest punishment, and it was even very promising to be said to be an attempt to rebel.

Cao Hong looked around nervously and found that the streets were empty at night, so he relaxed a little, and still opened his mouth to instruct: "Big brother, General Lu, the wall has ears." ”

Cao Cao laughed and said, "Feng Xian, my disciple Lian has always been cautious, hahaha." ”

After spending more than a month peacefully in Luoyang, the spring of March is coming soon, the warm sunshine begins to spread the earth, and everything has regained its vitality.

In the past month, Lu Bu has often walked back and forth with Yuan Shao, Cao Cao and others as before, and has visited some other talents many times, but they have all returned in vain, and even Xun Yu, who has hinted many times that he has not yet become a leader, has been rejected by the other party, so most people still have a glimmer of hope for the Han Dynasty at this time.

Since the establishment of the Xiyuan New Army, Wang Fu and others have never taken any action, which makes Lu Bu and others a little unpredictable. Even Cao Cao was a little confused about what medicine was sold in the other party's gourd.

It is worth mentioning that Na Jian Shuo originally had a grudge against Cao Cao, because when Cao Cao was the lieutenant of northern Luoyang in his early years, he killed Jian Shuo's uncle with a five-colored rod in order to strictly enforce the law.

This time, the Xiyuan New Army was established, and Jian Shuo established Cao Cao's top boss, but he did not retaliate against Cao Cao because of this past, and he didn't even mention the previous assassination.

This made Cao Cao a little stunned, in his opinion, these eunuchs were all people who would repay him.

In fact, this is because of Emperor Liu Hong of the Han Dynasty, Liu Hong's intention to establish the New Army of the West Garden, Jian Shuo and others could not understand it better, and Cao Cao is one of the characters that Liu Hong wants to strive for, Jian Shuo has always been loyal to Emperor Han Ling, so he naturally put aside personal grudges. Even Wang Fu's several instigations were suppressed by him, causing Wang Fu to be dissatisfied with him.

On this day, Lu Bu and the others were discussing matters, and suddenly there was a rush of footsteps outside, "Report————! ”

I saw a soldier rushing over panting, covered in dust, Lu Bu recognized this person as a herald from Bingzhou at a glance, and his heart tightened, could it be that there was an accident in Bingzhou?

"Report, report to General Lang," the herald took a breath and continued: "Bingzhou urgently, Shuofang, Wuyuan, Yunzhong, and Dingxiang four counties were attacked by Xianbei, of which Dingxiang was in an emergency, and some scattered rangers broke through to Yanmen County. ”

Lu Bu was shocked: "What? He walked quickly to the herald and snatched the letter from his hand: "Let Xianbei Zhonglang general, see the words as faces." At the beginning of this year, the new lord of Xianbei gathered tens of thousands of rangers and thousands of horse bandits to invade the border of our state, and the main force of about 60,000 people broke through to the hinterland of Dingxiang and returned as soon as possible. ”

After reading the letter, Lu Bu was furious: "These bastards! Angry Lu! ”

Tian Feng took the letter and read it carefully, and sighed: "Hey, this kind of barbarian has always been waiting for an opportunity on the side of my big man, and it is really a big trouble in my heart. ”

Lu Bu snorted coldly and said, "Hmph, it seems that a certain person didn't kill them last time." Then he instructed Tian Feng: "Mr. Tian, I and Zhang He and Cao Xing will command five hundred cavalry to return first. Mr. Tian reported the matter to the imperial court, and then rushed back to Bingzhou. Gao Shun, from today onwards, you are responsible for protecting Mr. Tian's safety, if there is a half-point difference, military law will be involved. ”

The rest of the people agreed in unison, "No." ”

Just as Lu Bu was about to leave, the herald at the door mustered up his courage and said, "Big, my lord, can you allow the villain to go along." ”

Lu Bu took a closer look and saw that the other party's immature face was full of tiredness because of the hurry, and even his lips became chapped, but there were faint tears in his clear eyes. Lu Bu said distressedly: "Little brother, let's rest first." In the future, you will return with Gao Shun and others. ”

The young herald suddenly fell to his knees and cried bitterly, "My lord, my lord, I am not tired. I, I just want to hurry back to Bingzhou, my home is in Yanmen, and there are old fathers and mothers at home, I, I ......"

Lu Bu stiffly pulled the herald up and shouted: "Stand up for me, cry and cry what it looks like, I don't know how to cry and cry, I don't know how to cry, do you hear it!" Soldier, say your name out loud. ”

Thinking that Lu Bu was angry, the herald quickly stopped sobbing and replied loudly: "Back to the adult, the villain Li Ergou!" ”

Lu Bu took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Li Ergou, I, Lu Bu, promise you now that I will definitely rush back to Bingzhou as soon as possible to avenge my father and fellow villagers." Now I order you, give Lao Tzu a good rest, prepare well, and when you return to Bingzhou, Lao Tzu will take you to the Xianbei Royal Court, do you understand! Zhang He, write down the name of this soldier, from today on, he is a member of my personal guard. ”

Because Lu Bu is famous for his perennial defeats, and has long become the idol of the god of war in the Bingzhou army, many young people in the army take becoming Lu Bu's personal soldier as the greatest honor, such a big surprise fell in front of him, how could this young man not be overjoyed, I saw that his face was flushed with excitement, and he shouted loudly: "Order!" ”
