"My lord."

"Lord!"

When they saw the person who came, Zhou Cang and Yin Kaishan were all full of surprise, and at this time, they didn't care about Lu Bu being on the side, and hurriedly ran over and saluted each other respectfully.

The person who came was of course Pei Qing, who left from Chang'an, Pei Qing passed all the way and went directly to Wuguan, and there were also some sergeants belonging to the Xiliang Army along the way, but when they saw Pei Qing followed by an army of thirty or forty thousand, which one dared to step forward so blindly? Of course, they were released one after another, and Pei Qing had already lost Chang'an, for fear that Yingchuan would also be in danger, so he led the army day and night and came to Wuguan.

Originally, Pei Qing thought that this place was still controlled by Yuan Shu, and he was ready to attack forcibly if the other party did not let him go, but he didn't expect to see Lu Bu and those knights under his command confronting Zhou Cang and Yin Kaishan in front of the pass, and then realized that Wuguan had been taken by his people.

Pei Qing was immediately pleasantly surprised when he saw this, and said to them: "Open the mountain, Yuanfu (Pei Qing took the word for Zhou Cang), I didn't expect that you have all captured Wuguan, presumably, at this time Yuan Shu has retreated to Runan, right?" ”

"Exactly," Zhou Cang took the lead and smiled at Pei Qing: "The old boy of Yuan Shu and Liu Biao competed for Nanyang, but none of them got it, and finally the Yuan Shao brothers took the lead and occupied Wancheng, Liu Biao was angry and sent Wen Ping to attack, but Wen Ping was not the opponent of the Yuan Shao brothers at all, plus the Yuan Shao brothers sent the letter to Liu Biao, Liu Biao got face, so it was agreed that the two sides would take Xinye as the boundary, the north of Xinye would return to us, and the south of Xinye would return to Liu Biao, and the Yuan Shao brothers heard that the Xiliang army rebelled, I hurriedly let me capture Wuguan, originally we heard that the thieves captured Chang'an, ready to go to Guanzhong to welcome the lord, but Mr. Tang said, as long as the Wuguan is occupied, the lord will definitely come back from here, sure enough, Mr. Tang is right, in fact, if the lord does not come again, I really want him to eat my old fist, hehe......"

"You, just don't change the reckless problem, Bohu he did it right, if you lose the Wuguan, we will really be in trouble, even enter the Kanto need to fight, this Wuguan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if you want to break through, it will inevitably lose the soldiers, and it will delay time, so it is far more useful to hold the Wuguan than to meet me in the pass."

Pei Qing smiled at Zhou Cang, then walked up to Lu Bu and said with a faint smile: "General Lu, let's meet again, it's always good?" ”

......Of course, Lu Bu also saw Pei Qing, and he was pleasantly surprised, because since Wuguan was controlled by Pei Qing, it meant that he could enter Guanzhong without fighting, so he was finally safe.

But when Pei Qing really spoke to him, he suddenly remembered that he had lost Chang'an and betrayed Pei Qing's trust, and now he was a little ashamed to face Pei Qing.

"Brother Xian, I, I lost Chang'an, and I have failed your trust......" Lu Bu sneered, his face was flushed, and a generation of fierce generals has now become like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, easy to be shy.

Pei Qing sighed softly: "This is not entirely to blame the general, the main reason is that Jia Xu is too cunning, and he secretly bought Yang Ding, Yang Ding secretly threw himself into the Xiliang army, opened the city gate, and it was impossible to guard against it, if you want to talk about responsibility, I also have to bear a lot of responsibility, it is all because I am not familiar with history books." ”

"Brother Xian, don't blame yourself, what does this have to do with you? You can't read history books to see who is a traitor, right? Lu Bu shook his hand, he felt that Pei Qing was really a little speechless, and he couldn't take any responsibility on himself.

However, Lu Bu didn't know at all, Pei Qing could really read who was a traitor when he was studying, as long as he carefully read all the things in this period, involving relevant characters, he would know that this Yang Ding was absolutely unreliable, once he had a guard in his heart, the Xiliang army would not be able to break through Chang'an so easily, it was because of his own negligence that he failed to recognize this Yang Ding, which resulted in the fall of Chang'an, and made the situation of the Han Dynasty take a sharp turn again.

However, Pei Qing is not a person who will give up, he now has nearly 30,000 troops in his hands, if you add the garrison of Yingchuan, the total number is enough to reach 50,000, although there is still a lot of gap compared to the Xiliang army, but it is not without a fight.

Of course, if it is not a last resort, Pei Qing is not willing to fight for his family, because this not only means that he will no longer have anything to rely on, but also will bring endless disasters to the people in Yingchuan, Nanyang and other places that he now controls.

So now for Pei Qing, uniting the Kwantung princes is the best choice.

But Pei Qing also knows that the current Kwantung princes are busy with their own affairs, and few people will be enthusiastic about the affairs of the imperial court, if they just pay some small price, it will be fine, but with a hard fight with hundreds of thousands of Xiliang troops? No one would be stupid enough to do that.

Of course, Pei Qing also knows the difficulties involved, but his fiancée is in Chang'an, Cai Zhaoji is also in Chang'an, and his brother-in-law the emperor is also in Chang'an, so he can't sit idly by, right?

So Pei Qing secretly decided that no matter how difficult things were, he would definitely work hard to do it, and if no one else did it, then he would do it himself, but it was definitely not a hard fight.

Now that Pei Qing is here, he naturally can't help but let Lu Bu enter Wuguan, and he can just take the opportunity to win Lu Bu back to Chang'an with him.

However, Pei Qing would not let Lu Bu join his subordinates, because he knew that Lu Bu had always been mercenary, and his ambition was not small, and he could not control him with his current ability, but would bring disaster to himself, after all, Xu Rong and Li Su were also his subordinates, and many Xiliang soldiers were also afraid of his prestige, besides, Ding Yuan, Dong Zhuo, and later Liu Bei had learned a lesson, and he couldn't help but learn from it.

So after entering the customs, Pei Qing opened his mouth and asked, "I don't know what the general's plans are in the future?" ”

Lu Bu actually doesn't have any plans at all now, as long as someone can give him a bite to eat, of course, this is the first step, and the second step is naturally to fight a piece of territory.

So Lu Bu said directly: "Otherwise, I will work under your command, Brother Xian, right?" All you have to do is give me a piece of land, and I'll give you my life from now on. ”

When Pei Qing heard this, he hurriedly laughed and said: "General, you are really good at laughing, I am now just a county in Yingchuan and a few counties in Nanyang, and there can only be loaches churning in the shallows, how can I raise a dragon?" Besides, if you talk about official positions, you are above me, and if I dare to do this, I guess the whole world will laugh at me and I don't know how to advance or retreat. ”

At this time, Lu Bu didn't understand the faces of the Kwantung princes too well, and felt that he was a martial artist, and he was indeed a little aggrieved when he was trapped in this square inch of land, so he laughed and said: "That's right, if you really let me do things under you, I'm really a little unaccustomed to it, I heard that Runan Yuan Shubing is full of food, and his protégés are all over the world, and I heard that Taifu Ma Riyan is also holding a talisman in his place, so it's better to vote for him, and at the same time ask Ma Taifu for an official and a half-position, virtuous brother, this farewell, I don't know when I will see you again, When we see each other next time, we'll drink together. ”

After Lu Bu finished speaking, he was about to lead the crowd to leave, but before leaving, he looked at Xu Rong and Li Su under Pei Qing's command, and then asked: "Xu Rong, Li Su, you two have been taken care of by General Pei in the past, you should thank him well, forget it, this love will be repaid in the future, you are ready to prepare, this is the departure, don't worry, I will definitely take you back to Chang'an when the time comes." ”

When Pei Qing heard this, his face suddenly looked a little unsightly, but he didn't expect this Lu Bu to be like this, pulling people in front of him.
