Yan Zhong has always "looked at Han Sui differently", so he did not inform the details of the state minister's inability to form an alliance with Lu Bu, but set many conditions for Han Sui to talk to Lu Bu one by one. From Chang'an to Yinchuan, it takes eight, nine, ten days to ride a horse. Drag it out a few times, and it's almost winter.

Winter naturally has to give people a breath of relief, and in the beginning of spring, continue to drag it out a few more times and make some concessions. Anyway, in a word, we can talk about it, but we definitely can't form an alliance.

Although Yan Zhong's plan was good, Han Sui obviously had his own ideas. He visited Lu Bu on a formal occasion, and when he saw that the other party was extraordinary in heroism and was even taller than Chen Cheng, he was overjoyed in his heart. After talking to him for a few words, Han Sui was even more overjoyed. Lu Bu is the kind of person he likes the most.

The temperament of the princes of Xiliang is similar to that of Lu Bu, but none of them can fight Lu Fengxian. Dealing with such a person, Han Sui is very confident. After submitting the paperwork, Han Sui went to see him in private.

Lu Bushi was drinking with a beautiful woman in the pavilion in the backyard, and when he heard that Han Sui asked to see him, he was a little angry, "What is Han Wenyue doing again?" ”

But Han Sui was the envoy of Xiliang, and Lu Bu was not easy to see, so he ordered his own soldiers to bring him in. After Han Sui walked into the backyard, he smiled all over his face, bowed to Lu Buchang, and then said with a smile: "General Lu is so happy!" ”

Lu Bu said lazily: "Han Sui, if you have anything, just say it quickly, don't disturb me drinking." ”

Han Sui smiled and said, "I have a great fortune that I want to give to General Lu." ”

Lu Bu sneered: "I am now the general of Zhengxi, and I am only one line away from the king of Guanzhong, what other wealth can you give me?" ”

Han Sui said: "It is a great wealth that can make the general go further and become the king of Guanzhong!" ”

Lu Bu became interested and asked, "Can you make me the king of Guanzhong?" Come and hear it! ”

Han Sui smiled: "How can such a big thing be said in front of so many people? Please keep your eyes off! ”

Lu Bu immediately shouted to the left and right: "Give me all retreat!" ”

When everyone was far away, Lu Bu said impatiently: "What is the great wealth?" ”

His eagerness was like the performance of a hairy young man on the bed. Han Sui was overjoyed in his heart, kept a smile on his face, and said, "Does General Lu know that the elite soldiers and strong generals of Liangzhou have all gone on an expedition to the Western Regions?" ”

"I've never heard of this."

The tooth soldiers are a standing army, and they are stationed in the city outside the city on weekdays, and basically do not interact with the outside world. If you hadn't been intentionally spying, you wouldn't have known what was going on inside. But when I went on the expedition, so many people saw it, as long as I inquired carefully, I could still know the news.

However, Lu Bu became a "monarch" for the first time, rather than acting as a "military general", and it was inevitable that he would not know what to do and what not to do, so he did not pay much attention to the intelligence of other forces. Besides, the total number of households in Xiliang is only more than 100,000, and the people over there are fierce, so why do you care about Xiliang?

With a rich place like Guanzhong, what else does it matter to Xiliang?

Han Sui saw that Lu Bu's interest was much less, and he hurriedly said: "General Lu thinks that Xiliang is a bitter cold and barren land? ”

"Hmph, isn't it?" Lu Bu said dissatisfiedly: "It's not that I haven't been to Xiliang, Hanyang is already rich in Liangzhou, and it is not comparable to Sanfu, how much better can other places be?" ”

"General Lu doesn't know," Han Sui said with a smile: "The rest of Xiliang may still be very barren now, but the hundreds of miles of land at the foot of Helan Mountain are comparable to the plastered land near Chang'an. ”

Seeing that Lu Bu obviously didn't believe it, Han Sui continued to add, "Chen.... Chen Zhijun found a silver mine and two copper mines in Helan Mountain, and there are millions of silver coins and copper coins alone every year! In addition to this, .......... per year

Before Han Sui finished speaking, Lu Bu's eyes had already given birth to a greedy light. Although Guanzhong has always been rich, it has been desperately drawn by the Luoyang court for several years, and although the treasury of Chang'an has not yet reached the point where it can starve to death of rats, there is not much money and food.

In the past few days, a batch of grain and money has just been distributed, and the grain stock in the treasury has been reduced considerably. Hearing that Yinchuan can earn millions of yuan every year, Lu Bu did not think of being able to fill the hole in military spending, but thinking of putting all these things in his pocket.

"Can there really be millions of them every year?" Lu Bu was still a little unconvinced, "How can there be so much money?" ”

Han Sui said: "Chen Cheng changed the name of Lian County to Yinchuan, you can imagine how much silver can be produced every year!" With the wealth of Yinchuan and the bravery of the Western Liang cavalry, if General Lu can take Liangzhou into his pocket, what if he is the king? ”

In fact, he didn't know how much food Yinchuan could have every year, but he was just talking nonsense.

Lu Bu couldn't help but feel excited, he was a Huhua Han man who came out of Jiuyuan, and he was originally satisfied just as a horseman. But people's desires are endless, they want to continue to climb up when they become a general, they want to be a general when they become the main bookkeeper, and they want to be kings again after becoming a general.

He said to Han Tunnel: "I also want to annex Xiliang, but the Xiliang cavalry is very capable of fighting, and Chen Cheng is even more difficult to deal with, relying on the soldiers and horses under my command, I am only afraid of ........ Even if you win, you will lose a lot. ”

In the past two years, Lu Bu led his troops to fight more than a dozen battles with Dong Zhuo, with more victories and fewer losses. As long as the forces are equal, he has never lost. He has only fought two or three times with the Xiliang Army, and he has also won more and lost less. In so many battlefield battles, countless people under his command were killed, but only one was wounded.

He instantly remembered the experience of fighting under Chen Cangcheng that day, and his face showed a trace of unnaturalness. Those who are as arrogant as Lu Bu have to admit that Chen Cheng's house is indeed unheard of bravery. What he just wanted to say was that relying on the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong, he might not be able to win.

The matter is obvious, when Huangfu Song and Ding Yuan joined forces, they only had a draw with Han Sui and Ma Teng. Although it is said to have a slight advantage, it does not have an absolute advantage. On the plains, the Xiliang cavalry was too much and too strong. Although the children of Guanzhong endure hard fighting, they also have no good way to take those cavalry who come and go like the wind.

Han Sui said with a smile: "If you rely on the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong, it may not be enough, but what if you add Dong Zhuo from the state?" ”

"Dong Zhuo?"

"Not bad!" Han Tunnel: "Chen Cheng occupied Wuyuan County and Shang County in Bingzhou, Dong Zhuo had long been disgruntled, but he had always wanted to enter Guanzhong, so he tolerated it." Now that there is General Lu guarding the pass, Dong Zhuo naturally doesn't dare to covet it anymore, so isn't it a matter of course for him to set his sights back on Wuyuan and Shangjun? ”

Han Sui's words made Lu Bu laugh, so Han Wenyue hit the railway while it was hot: "If General Lu can be trusted, he is willing to send an envoy to merge states for the general, and say that Dong Zhuo will join forces with the general." Now that Zhao Yun has taken away the most elite troops under Chen Cheng, if Dong Zhuo sends troops to the county, Chen Cheng will not have to take the last bit of soldiers and horses to rescue? Now Jincheng is in the hands of Han Li, the dog, and Li Xiangru of Longxi is also my old department, and the soldiers and horses of these two counties will attack Hanyang together with the generals, and it won't take a few days for Hanyang to be at your fingertips! Then take advantage of the situation to sweep Xiliang and lay the foundation of the king's hegemony! ”

Lu Bu's heart was surging, and he immediately shouted: "Okay! Then ask Mr. Han to help me make peace with Dong Zhuo, and the two will join forces to crusade against Xiliang Chen Cheng! ”

Han Sui was overjoyed and said secretly: Chen Cheng, Chen Cheng, this time you will definitely die without a place to be buried!

Lu Bu laughed a few times, then thought about something again, and asked, "Mr. Han helped me like this, I don't know what you want?" Gold and silver treasures, wine and beauty, as long as I have it, sir, just open your mouth! ”

Han Sui was disdainful in his heart, but he showed a serious expression on his face, and said: "I have never seen an open-minded and majestic person like General Lu, now the world is full of smoke, the sea is boiling, the person who can calm the world, isn't it General Lu?" When the general calms down the world, I can also follow as a founding hero and leave my name in history! ”

"Hahaha," Lu Bu was full of joy and laughed: "What Mr. Han said is too far, let's seize Liangzhou first!" When I have two sites in Guanzhong and Liangzhou, I will make Mr. Feng my prime minister! ”

Han Sui had a very pleasant conversation with Lu Bu, and was summoned into the mansion for several days to negotiate. Han Sui had dealt with those martial artists in Xiliang all his life, and he knew their preferences very well. He was once "promoted filial piety", well-informed, knowledgeable, and good-spoken, and it only took three days to gain Lu Bu's complete trust.

Gao Shun made remarks to Lu Bu several times, saying that Han Sui harbored evil intentions and should not be gullible. But Lu Bu thought that this was because the generals under his command were jealous, and he said perfunctorily: "I know what you said, and I will be careful." ”

Seeing that Gao Shun was still angry, Lu Bu said angrily: "Why don't you let you do the position of General Zhengxi?" ”

Gao Shun was stunned for a moment, then knelt on the ground and said, "That's not what the end will mean." ”

"Hmph, you just train the army, you don't need to be taught by others, I will handle it!"

After Han Sui gained Lu Bu's trust, he passed on the progress of the negotiations to Yinchuan and began to secretly communicate with Bingzhou. Yan Zhong deliberately delayed the progress of the negotiations, and Lu Bu didn't want to form an alliance now, so both sides let Han Sui drag things out slowly, but left him with nothing to do.

It's him, it's him, it's him, the negotiation has reached this point, isn't it simple, easy and pleasant?

Since Dong Zhuo was defeated again at the hands of Huangfu Song, he retracted and merged with the state, and he couldn't help but be a little depressed. He said to Li Ru: "As long as Huangfu Song is here, we have no possibility of capturing Guanzhong." ”

A few days after saying this, the news came that Huangfu Song had been recruited into the court. Dong Zhuo was in high spirits for this, and smiled at the people around him: "After all, God still has to leave me Dong Zhongying a way out!" ”

So he regained his enthusiasm and began to reorganize the army, preparing to compete with the soldiers and horses of Guanzhong again in the coming year. Huangfu Song can't beat him, can't he beat Gai Xun?

As a result, there was a thunderbolt on a sunny day, Gai Xun died of illness, Lu Bu monopolized Guanzhong, and appointed himself as the general of Zhengxi, and the governor of Guanzhong! After learning the news, Dong Zhuo was first stunned, and then scolded: "What kind of thing is Lu Bu, he dares to call himself the general of Zhengxi and the governor of Guanzhong!" ”
