"Mr. Guo is a guest from afar, so there is no need to be polite. I don't know how Yuan Gong is doing lately? Lu Bu greeted cordially.

Guo Tu hurriedly returned: "Lao Wenhou bothered. My father-in-law is well now. ”

Guo Tu's voice fell, only to hear a cold snort suddenly from the side.

Turning his head to look, he saw a white-faced handsome young general with disdain on his face, this person was Zhao Yun, and the cold snort just now came from him.

Zhao Yun married Zhen Mi that day, and almost let Yuan Shao's son snatch it away.

Although it turned out to be just a misunderstanding, Zhao Yun always had a problem in his heart.

And not long ago, the loss of the four counties of Sizhou was also caused by Yuan Shao's stab in the back.

Although the four counties were not lost from Zhao Yun's hands, Tai Shici and Zhang Liao, who stayed in the four counties, were his sworn brothers.

The three of them have always had a deep relationship, and the brothers were humiliated, so he, the eldest brother, was naturally unwilling.

That's why it's time to behave rudely.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Zhao Yun did not have the slightest fear, and looked at Guo Tu in his eyes, without hiding the resentment in it.

Although Zhao Yunfang's cold snort had an element of impulsiveness, seeing that Lu Bu had no intention of scolding, he already realized something in his heart.

At this time, he was even more fearless, and said coldly to Guo Tu: "The treacherous villains have no shame, and they naturally live a stable life. ”

Guo Tu couldn't hear the meaning of Zhao Yun's words, but he represented Yuan Shao at this time.

Lu Bu and Yuan Shao were equal in status at this time, if he, as Yuan Shao's envoy, was insulted at this time but did not fight back, then Yuan Shao's face would be trampled on.

Guo Tu took a step towards Zhao Yun and said proudly: "This little general's face is tight, please forgive me for not recognizing it." There are many talents in the state, how can there be such an ignorant child swaggering during the court discussion. It's really puzzling. ”

In the last sentence, Guo Tu said to Lu Bu.

Its purpose couldn't be more obvious, I hope Lu Bu will discipline this disrespectful kid well.

Who knows, when he looked up, he found that Lu Bu was scratching his ears and eyes with his head sideways, obviously pretending not to hear Guo Tu's words.

Guo Tu's face turned red and he was about to have a seizure.

Lu Bu suddenly spoke: "Oh, Mr. Guo, I haven't asked for advice yet, what is the matter here?" ”

Guo Tu exhaled two mouthfuls of depressed breath, calmed down his mood, thought for a while, and still couldn't break Yuan Shao's face, so he spoke: "Wenhou, just now your general spoke disrespectfully to me. Although I, Guo Gong, am just a small person, but Yuan Gong's face must not be humiliated! ”

Lu Bu looked at Guo Tu, his face gradually became serious, his eyes gradually became sharper, and his lips were closed tightly without saying a word.

The atmosphere gradually became solemn.

The rest of the people also focused on Guo Tu's body, Lu Bu didn't speak, and they naturally didn't speak at the moment, but their eyes gradually became cold.

In the face of all this, Guo Tu was not afraid, his eyes were open, and he looked at Lu Bu.

The air seemed to be frozen and still, and after more than a dozen breaths, Lu Bu suddenly laughed and said, "Zhao Yun is just joking with Mr. ”

Lu Bu did not answer Guo Tu Fangcai's question directly at all, but wanted to change the topic in this way.

Guo Tu's face changed, and he was about to continue to speak.

Lu Bu suddenly looked at Tian Feng and said, "Sir, how is our army preparing now?" ”

As soon as Tian Feng heard Lu Bu's words, he immediately understood what he meant, and hurriedly replied respectfully.

"Lord Qi, now more than 20,000 people of our army have completed their rest, and the 50,000 soldiers and horses of General Zhang Yan's headquarters have been prepared. In addition, Xianbei's reinforcements still have 30,000 elites, and they are still stationed in Jinyang City. ”

"Oh-" Lu Bu nodded and muttered in a low voice: "Although there are not many of these soldiers and horses, it is not difficult to defeat a state of land, it should be enough." ”

After talking to himself, he looked up at Guo Tu again and said, "Mr. Guo, what did you say just now?" ”

Lu Bu looked dazed, which made Guo Tu itch with hatred.

But the conversation between Fang Cai and Tian Feng, as well as the words that seemed to be talking to himself later, Guo Tu also listened to it very well.

Naturally, he clearly understood the threat in Lu Bu's words, and the matter of seizing the four counties of Sizhou was a little inauthentic, so Guo Tu had no choice but to give up on the matter.

After taking a few deep breaths again, calming down his mood, he spoke: "This time, I came to discuss the alliance with Wen Hou on the order of Duke Yuan. ”

Guo Tu suppressed his anger in an instant, so that De Lu Bu couldn't help but secretly scream for this person.

After listening to Guo Tu's words, Lu Bu pretended to be surprised and asked, "Alliance?" Mr. Guo, please forgive me for being blunt, I, Lu Bu, am just a reckless man, and I dare to try this alliance, but with you. Hehe. ”

The sarcasm in Lu Bu's words couldn't be more obvious, obviously the previous events in the four counties of Sizhou made him resentful.

Before Guo Tu came, he had carefully discussed the matter with Yuan Shao and all the strategists.

Yuan Shao also saw that Lu Bu needed time to recuperate at this time, so he turned his face at this stall and formed an alliance with Lu Bu.

If you wait for Lu Bu to take a breather, I'm afraid that Lu Bu won't care about you and directly send troops to retaliate.

It is precisely because of this that I chose to come at this time.

Speaking of which, Yuan Shao is also living a bit miserable now.

On top of the original history, long before Cao Cao welcomed the dedication of the emperor, Yuan Shao unified the north and became a generation of heroes.

It was only later that he gradually fell because of his own reasons.

But it is undeniable that after Dong Zhuo, Yuan Shao was the most powerful prince at that time.

It's just that in this life, due to the arrival of Lu Bu, it interfered with the course of history.

Not only did Cao Cao welcome Emperor Xian in advance, but Yuan Shao was even unification of Jizhou until this time.

Even if Yuan Shao doesn't take Youzhou again, he who survives in the cracks is likely to be wiped out by Lu Bu or Cao Cao.

It is precisely for this reason that Yuan Shao worked hard and risked several times.

After abandoning indecision, Yuan Shao once again showed his extraordinary political ability and personality charm.

Compared with the Yuan Shao Legion in previous history, the Yuan Shao Legion in this life has many fewer powerful people in terms of strength.

However, in terms of cohesion and internal tilting, there is a considerable improvement compared to history.

Lu Bu said such words at this time, although it was expected by Guo Tu, but it still made Guo Tu's heart sink involuntarily.

He hurriedly spoke: "The matter of Hanoi, my lord also said, I really can't stand Wen Hou. ”

"Huh." Lu Bu sneered, but did not answer.

Guo Tu had no choice but to continue embarrassedly: "It's all the people of the Wei family, and they have a grudge against Wen Hou. However, he deceived my lord with clever words, deceived soldiers and horses from his lord, and sent troops privately, which caused a misunderstanding. ”

"Misunderstanding, it's easy to say." Lu Bu said coldly.

Guo Tu explained with a sincere face: "It's really a misunderstanding. The lord of my family was full of regret and sent a letter to stop him, but unexpectedly, Na Zhengnan refused to listen to the order on the grounds that the general was not in danger of the king's order. ”

"Alas-" Guo Tu sighed, looking sad, and even blinked two old tears from the corners of his eyes, and then said: "Originally, this matter should not be told to outsiders, and the ugliness of the family should not be publicized." However, before leaving, my lord repeatedly told me to explain the matter clearly to Wen Hou, and never cause deeper misunderstandings. ”

Lu Bu sneered in his heart when he heard this, but his face gradually put away his disgusted expression, as if he was moved by Guo Tu's words.

Seeing this, Guo Tu hurriedly continued to speak: "My lord also said that the matter has come to this point, and it is in vain to say anything, so he is willing to compensate for Wenhou's losses, and the four counties of Sizhou will also return to Wenhou with both hands." ”

Lu Bu naturally wouldn't believe such nonsense, but after doing a full set of acts, he pretended to be very surprised and asked, "Oh? Brother Yuan really said that? ”

After Guo Tu came, Lu Bu called Yuan Shao Brother Yuan for the first time.

In the past, when the two sides were interacting, Lu Bu had always called Yuan Shao like this, and now he used this title again.

Guo Tu was overjoyed and understood that Lu Bu had taken the bait.

continued to look very sincere, and said slowly: "How dare the public say anything. ”

"Hahaha, I'll just say it. How could Brother Yuan, the fourth and third dukes, do such a thing, there must be a villain behind him. Thanks to Mr. Guo for coming, otherwise my friendship with Brother Yuan for many years, because of such a trivial matter, would not have made my relatives bitter and enemies happy? Lu Brown laughed.

Guo Tu hurriedly smiled: "Exactly, exactly." ”

In his heart, he was secretly cursing Lu Bu for being hypocritical and cunning, obviously he heard him say that Yuan Shao was going to return the four counties and compensate for the losses, so he made such an appearance, but he still had to pretend to care about his brother's feelings.

Sure enough, Lu Bu then asked, "Then I don't know how Brother Yuan Shao wants to compensate?" Oh, you know, the four counties of my Sizhou have spent a lot of effort at the beginning, not to mention, money, grain and grass have cost a lot. And when the two little bastards under Brother Yuan made such a bad thing, they killed more than 10,000 brothers in our army. These losses are not small. ”

Hearing Lu Bu refer to Wei Qi and the trial as two little bastards, the corners of Guo Tu's mouth twitched.

In his heart, he slandered: Okay, you Lu Fengxian, the two of them are little bastards, so what has become of my lord.

But he hurriedly replied: "This matter is natural, my lord is really apologetic." Therefore, it was decided to compensate Wen Hou for 30,000 sets of armor equipment, 5 million copper coins, and 300,000 stones of grain and grass. Compensation and Wenhou ......"

Lu Bu's eyes lit up when he heard this: other copper coins, grain and grass are okay. The 30,000 sets of armor equipment are the most important items.
