Lu Bu nodded and said, "In this way, the Jingzhou envoy has other purposes for going to Bingzhou. ”

"In the opinion of his subordinates, the lord should personally meet the envoy of Jingzhou, and he may be able to get news that is favorable to the lord." Jia Xu said.

After entering the Huguan, Zhang Mao immediately felt the difference in the state, in the past just heard other people talk about the changes in the state, in the depths of his heart, Zhang Mao was suspicious, after seeing the scene of the state, Zhang Mao's surprise in his heart can be imagined.

Seeing the majestic Jinyang City, Zhang Mao was even more unbelievable, even if the city of Xiangyang was compared with the Jinyang City at this time, it seemed a little insufficient, as the gateway and governance of Jingzhou, Jingzhou invested a lot of manpower and material resources in Xiangyang.

The wide and neat streets and houses on both sides of the road give people a pleasing feeling, with the experience of the envoys of Jingzhou in the past, Zhang Mao behaved extremely low-key, ordering the accompanying guards not to overstep the action, on the way to Bingzhou, Zhang Mao got the refusal of the four counties of Jingzhou to obey Liu Bei's order, which made Zhang Mao feel urgent, at this time, Lu Bu's attitude can be said to be crucial.

After occupying the land of Sanfu, the Bingzhou army only needed to send troops from Wuguan to attack Nanyang County in Jingzhou, thus forming a deterrent to Xiangyang, which was also the main reason why Jingzhou advocated that the princes' alliance attack Bingzhou, Wuguan was in the hands of Lu Bu, and it would always give Jingzhou a strong threat.

Although the land of Chang'an is chaotic, once the army under Lu Bu stabilizes the land of Sanfu, it will be the greatest deterrent to Xining City in Jingzhou.

After Cao's army captured Henan Yin, it failed to enter Hongnong, Hongnong was secretly supported by Jingzhou, and there was a gap between Jingzhou and Cao Cao, and he would definitely not let Cao's army threaten Jingzhou so easily.

Jingzhou is a place of four wars, and it is necessary to watch out for enemies from other places at any time, which is why Jingzhou's development was greatly restricted in the first place.

Knowing the low-key nature of the envoy of Jingzhou, Lu Bu smiled secretly in his heart, this is the benefit of absolute strength.

If the state had suffered heavy losses in this battle, the princes' attitude towards the state would definitely not be as respectful as it is now.

"Let the Jingzhou envoy come in, the Jingzhou envoy is one of the Jiuqing, Benhou doesn't dare to let a Jiuqing wait outside the state pastor's mansion." Lu Budao.

Dian Wei smiled, and walked slowly towards the outside of the state minister's mansion, he didn't have any good feelings about the Jingzhou envoy, from Lu Bu's tone, he also felt that Lu Bu didn't care about the Jingzhou envoy, and was thinking about how to embarrass the Jingzhou envoy later.

Becoming one of the five tiger generals, Dian Wei felt full of fighting spirit, looking at the state army, his status was second only to Zhao Yun, what an honor, thinking of the thing that blocked the road to see Lu Bu, he couldn't help but feel glad for his choice.

Zhang Mao saw a rugged-looking and sturdy general walk out of the governor's mansion, and arched his hand slightly: "This general, this official is an envoy of the Han family, and I also ask the general to make a report on my behalf." ”

Dian Wei smiled: "As General Ben expected, Your Excellency is Zhang Taichang." ”

"Dare to ask the general?" Zhang Mao asked, being able to know his identity, it can be seen that the person in front of him has a certain status in Bingzhou.

"This general is the commander of the guards under the tent of the Marquis of Jin, and Dian Wei is also."

Zhang Mao hurriedly said: "It turned out to be General Dian, the name of General Dian Wei, and this official is like thunder. ”

This sentence Dian Wei was more useful, and his gaze at Zhang Mao softened a lot, "Follow General Ben in, but others can't go." ”

Zhang Mao smiled: "Of course. ”

An official who followed lowered his voice and said, "My lord, he is just a general in the state army, and An dares to be so rude in front of Taichang. ”

Zhang Mao glared at the official and said, "Hugh is talking nonsense." ”

Dian Wei's name has been famous all over the world through Lu Bu's reward for the generals in the army in the Han newspaper, and the Han newspaper has introduced the generals who were rewarded by Lu Bu, Dian Wei has been able to become Lu Bu's personal guard commander for many years, and to a certain extent, it can affect Lu Bu's decision, the more cautious he is at this time, a trivial matter may affect Lu Bu's decision, Zhang Mao is here on a mission, and he must be careful.

Purely as an envoy of the Han family, there is naturally no problem with showing arrogance in the rule of the princes, but the current situation in Jingzhou cannot withstand too much turmoil, and it must be low-key, which is also the helplessness of the imperial court today.

Seeing Lu Bu, who was dressed in black and was not angry, Zhang Mao hurriedly saluted and said, "The lower official has seen the general. ”

Lu Bu looked at Zhang Mao for a moment and said: "Mrs. Zhang often comes from afar, but it is hard work, but Benhou is busy with affairs and can't greet him in person, I hope you will forgive me." ”

Zhang Mao hurriedly arched his hand and said, "The general is polite. ”

After taking his seat, Zhang Mao took out the holy decree directly and said: "General, the holy decree will reward the civil and military generals under the command of the general." ”

Lu Bu secretly despised it, it seemed that the envoy of Jingzhou also understood the role of the holy decree, otherwise, how could he be so casual.

Of course, what Lu Bu didn't know was that the envoys of the Han family were also bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, for ordinary princes, they still had to be respectful when they saw the holy decree, and they didn't dare to go beyond the slightest, mainly because Zhang Mao understood Lu Bu's character, and if he behaved too much, it might backfire.

Besides, the effect of this holy decree was originally dispensable for Lu Bu at this time, otherwise, Lu Bu would not directly reward the generals under his command, without going through the hands of the Han family.

"Just tell me what you mean, these two are Jia Xu and Li Su." Lu Bu said lightly.

Zhang Mao bowed and said slowly: "I don't know what the general thinks of today's saints?" ”

Lu Bu raised his eyebrows, Liu Qi became the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he was naturally extremely dissatisfied, Liu Qi and him were unhappy outside Xiangyang City, presumably Liu Qi at this time was extremely dissatisfied with him, but because of the strength of the state, he had to show weakness to the state.

Zhang Mao, who had been observing Lu Bu, saw the imperceptible change in Lu Bu's expression, and said in a low voice: "Originally, when the saint was dying, he designated the little prince as the crown prince, who knew that Liu Bei seized military power on the way back from the Jingzhou army and forced the officials of the Han family to comply, and now the officials of the Han family have a lot of dissatisfaction with Liu Bei, and the Taishou of the four counties of Lingling County, Guiyang County, Wuling County and Changsha County have openly accused Liu Bei. ”

"In this way, this time you went to Jinyang to get the support of Ben Hou?" Lu Bu asked.

Zhang Mao solemnly saluted and said: "When Jingzhou raised troops to attack Chang'an, there were many misunderstandings between the general and the general, if the general was willing to support the little prince, Jingzhou would be grateful." ”

If you have a recommendation ticket or a monthly pass on hand, remember to support it, and it is naturally better to give a reward
