Chapter 21: Mi Zhu, Mi Fang, Chen Deng

When Lu Bu entered Pengcheng, Xuzhou was shaken, and when the officials in the city came to visit, although Lu Bu was cold, his words were still relatively polite.

There are many differences between running a city and training an army and leading troops to fight, and in his previous life, he was also a person who begged for a living in the system, so how could he not understand the truth.

The current identity is the general Lu Bu, how can he be polite in front of the officials, what he wants is to make these officials fearful, in the face of the orders he issued, he does not dare to hesitate at all, Tao Qian may be kind and pleasant when he is in the city, but Lu Bu, who is a military general, will not.

The butcher's knife was hanging over the heads of Pengcheng officials, and if the choice was not good, Lu Bu would help them choose.

"Wen Hou, now all the important officials in the city have come to visit, and the officers and soldiers in the army have also been rectified by General Hou Cheng." Jia Xu arched his hand.

Lu Bu nodded slightly and said: "Wen He worked hard, he would have been able to capture Pengcheng, and you made a great contribution to it." ”

"This is a lowly thing." Jia Xu hurriedly saluted.

After Luoyang broke away from Dong Zhuo's army, attacked Xiaopingjin, and entered Hanoi, it seemed to be smooth to cross the Yellow River and attack Pengcheng, which seemed to be smooth, but there was a great danger in it, but such a feat was successful, and the process was relatively smooth, which made Jia Xu slightly surprised.

The reason why the cities along the way cooperated, in Jia Xu's view, was more due to Lu Bu's prestige. And the obvious lack of precautions of the Xuzhou army made Lu Bu's actions so smooth.

"Although the city is now in control, there must be many people with other thoughts in the secret." Lu Bu said slowly.

Jia Xu seemed to have known that Lu Bu would have concerns in this regard, and arched his hand: "If Wen Hou can win over the Mi family and the Chen family, then the officials of Pengcheng will definitely not dare to have different intentions. ”

"Mi family? Chen? ”

"The Mi family is a wealthy family in Xuzhou, with rich family resources, among which Mi Zhu is a driver in Xuzhou, Mi Fang is Peng Chengxiang, Chen Qi, the head of the Chen family, is Pei Xiang, and Chen Deng, the son of Chen Qi, is the captain of the agricultural school, and the two families are pacified, and the city will be stable." Jia Xu said: "The last general will learn that Mi Zhu has a sister, fourteen years old, and next year will be the year of leaving the cabinet. ”

Lu Bu frowned slightly, and immediately stretched out, after fusing Lu Bu's memory, he understood how terrible the power of the family was, Dong Zhuo was difficult to gain a foothold in Luoyang City, and even the princes of the Kwantung region raised a banner to crusade, and secretly there was a figure of the family.

"Let Mi Zhu, Mi Fang and Chen Deng come to see the general." Lu Budao: "In the future, don't call yourself the last general in front of the general, although you are a captain to capture the school, after all, you are a literati, so you will serve as the chief bookkeeper in Pengcheng." ”

"Commanded by humility." Jia Xu arched his hand.

The main book is the position that Lu Bu held under Ding Yuan's account, but Lu Bu made a move to betray Ding Yuan, and walked out of the Assassin's Mansion, Jia Xu thought deeply for a while, and secretly smiled bitterly, which was obviously Lu Bu's distrust of him and wanted to use this to beat.

However, after Lu Bu occupied Pengcheng, he did have a lot to do, which also made Jia Xu see the hope of Lu Bu taking charge of Xuzhou.

Jia Xu left for half an hour, Mi Zhu, Mi Fang, and Chen Deng asked to see each other, and the three of them did not have any verbal conversation in the Assassin's Mansion, but what they saw from each other's expressions was anxiety and uneasiness.

Xuzhou is a rich place, the two are famous families in Xuzhou, the Mi family is born in business, although many officials secretly slander the belly, the two brothers are prominent in Xuzhou, and they cannot tolerate the slightest contempt.

"Wen Hou has an order, and Chen Deng, the captain of the Diannong School, enters." A soldier stepped forward and said indifferently, as if Peng Cheng was just a nameless junior compared to him.

Mi Fang was about to step forward and scold, but stopped Mi Zhu.

This is the second time Chen Deng has seen Lu Bu, more than nine feet tall, the murderous aura that comes to his face, so that Chen Deng does not dare to relax in the slightest, this person in front of him is in charge of Pengcheng's power of life and death, from the news he has gotten, the army under Lu Bu is rushing to Pengcheng.

In this way, Lu Bu's fundamental purpose of occupying Xuzhou is extremely obvious.

"I've seen Wen Hou in my humble position." Chen Deng arched his hand.

"Please be seated." Lu Bu nodded.

"Ben Jiang has just entered Pengcheng, and some affairs in the city are not very familiar, and there are places where Yuanlong needs to help, so I hope I don't want to excuse myself." Lu Budao.

Chen Deng's heart moved, Lu Bu had only been in charge of Pengcheng for two days, and he knew his words, which showed that he was secretly concerned about the situation in Pengcheng, and hurriedly said: "Wen Hou's order, dare not obey his duties." ”

"Ben will do things, it has always been a clear reward and punishment, meritorious people will be rewarded, as for those who secretly have other plans, what they will bear will be the anger of Ben Jiang, the Chen family has been in Xuzhou for many years, the tree has deep roots, Ben will not want to see the Chen family standing on the opposite side of Ben General." Lu Bu said in a flat voice.

Chen Deng got up and said: "The name of Wen Hou has been admired for a long time, how could he betray Wen Hou, and Wen Hou turned his back on Dong Zhuo's old thief and became a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty." ”

"After you go back, you can send someone to negotiate with Ling Zun Duoduo, don't let the Chen family make mistakes, let Mi Zhu and Mi Fang come in."

"Oh, retire from your position."

After leaving Lu Bu's room, Chen Deng's back was wet with sweat, he was older than Lu Bu, but when he came into contact with Lu Bu, he felt great pressure, Lu Bu's words and deeds contained great coercion, this is the momentum contained in the perennial experience of war, and the meaning of Lu Bu's words is already obvious, if the Chen family cooperates, it will have its current status, if it is dissatisfied, it is likely to disappear from Pengcheng.

The Chen family, who has been developing in Xuzhou for many years, has today's situation, which is quite difficult, but Lu Bu is a famous general, and he does not have so many fears in his actions.

After seeing Mi Zhu and Mi Fang, Chen Deng regained his previous calm and breezy appearance, and arched his hand and said, "Both, Wen Hou is invited." ”

Mi Zhu glanced at Chen Deng, wanting to see the clue from Chen Deng's expression, but he couldn't.

Although the three of them are in Pengcheng together, there is a competition between the two families in secret.

Mi Zhu and Mi Fang entered the room where Lu Bu was quite apprehensive.

Lu Bu said straight to the point: "I want to take charge of Xuzhou, and I need the help of the Mi family, I don't know what the two of you mean?" ”

is different from the civil official conversation, there are many code words twisted and turned, Lu Bu's performance is very direct.

Mi Zhu was slightly stunned, and hurriedly saluted: "Wenhou Shenwu, no one can stop him, and his humble position is naturally to follow Wenhou." ”

"Humble and willing to follow Wen Hou." Mi Fang said.

"Zi Zhong and Zi Fang don't need to be so nervous." Lu Bu said with a smile.
