If you want to say who has the highest status under Lu Bu, no one can say clearly.

Jia Xu is Lu Bu's important strategist, Wei Xu is Lu Bu's brother-in-law, in addition, Hou Cheng, Song Xian, Cheng Lian, Hao Meng, and Cao Xing are all fierce generals who have followed Lu Bu in the southern expedition to the north for many years, Gao Shun defected to Lu Bu when he was in Luoyang, although he was rigid and not liked by Lu Bu, but he was an indispensable general around Lu Bu.

Saying who has the highest status, I'm afraid these people themselves don't know, after all, Lu Bu's personality is also a little impermanent on weekdays, but if you say who is the most favored by Lu Bu, it is undoubtedly promoted.

If Gao Sheng talks about his ability, it is really not very useful, otherwise, with Ye Zhao's ability to use people, he would not have been able to find Gao Sheng's position back then, and finally sent him to Lu Bu, but this person observes words and looks at the ability to steer the wind and the wind, then Lu Bu is unmatched.

People like to listen to good words, the difference is that some people can restrain their perceptual thinking and treat these sweet words rationally, but more people will be deceived by these pleasant words, and Lu Bu obviously belongs to the latter.

"There's General Lao Gao." Cao Ang smiled and saluted Gao Sheng: "There is no need to send each other. ”

"It's okay, in the future, I will ask Gongzi Cao to say a few kind words in front of Gong Cao." Gao Sheng also sent Cao Ang out of the mansion with a smile on his face.

"Farewell!"

"Walk slowly!"

Looking at Cao Ang, who gradually disappeared from sight, Gao Sheng returned to his room and sighed, smiling bitterly, he didn't expect that he would one day become a key figure in the situation in the world.

It's just that Cao Ang is here, why don't you see Ye Zhao's messenger, is Ye Zhao so confident that he will speak to him?

Thinking of the treatment under Ye Zhao and the cold eyes and disdain of others, Gao Sheng sneered, if they really thought so, it would be wrong.

At least so far, Gao Sheng felt that he was on Lu Bu's side, far better than Ye Zhao's side, and the feeling of being valued and recognized was something Gao Sheng had never experienced under Ye Zhao.

Now that Ye Zhao's life and death are in his hands, Gao Sheng will not have any nostalgia for the time under Ye Zhao's command in the past, and even at this moment, it is just a resentment that cannot be dissolved.

Originally, he was still waiting for Ye Zhao's envoy to come to him, and then play a trick on him, but who knew that Ye Zhao's envoy did not come at all, which made Gao Sheng even more embarrassed, and he also made up his mind that this time he must help Cao Ang to promote this matter, just to fight with Ye Zhao for this breath.

"Prepare the horse, I'm going to the lord!" After seeing Cao Ang leave, Gao Sheng directly asked people to prepare horses, preparing to go to Lu Bu, and talked to Lu Bu well, in short, Ye Zhao must not be allowed to succeed this time.

……

"Sir, why don't I go find that Gao Sheng?" After seeing Lu Bu's favorite concubine Luoyan, Wang Shuang followed Ye Zheng back, frowned and asked: "I heard that Cao Ang has gone to Gao Sheng's mansion early in the morning, after all, Gao Sheng once followed the lord, I will wait to say, I will definitely let that Gao Sheng help." ”

"Not necessarily!" Ye Zheng shook his head and said: "Before setting out on the expedition, I asked Guan Hai, Ding Li, and Qiu Chi, who were the earliest with their father, and had the most contact with that Gao Sheng, do you know how these people evaluate Gao Sheng?" ”

"I don't know." Wang Shuang said very simply, when Ye Zheng was in Macheng, he was not born yet, how could he know this.

"Ascend this person, for the sake of the general has no courage and no strategy." Ye Zheng shook his head and smiled: "According to what my father said, it is not enough to succeed, more than to lose, my father uses people on the basis of meritocracy, although he is second only to General Ding when he follows his father, but he is never reused, and he is rejected by the soldiers under his father. ”

"You say that such a person would be loyal to his father? I'll wait to go, but I'll just be teased by them. ”

"But although that Gao Sheng is incompetent, he is quite valued by Lu Bu, if I don't wait to do it, do I have to watch that Lu Bu join forces with Cao Cao?" Wang Shuang frowned, then looked at Ye Zheng, and a ruthless color flashed in his eyes: "It's better to ...... the last general."

said that he made a throat-cutting motion, and the meaning was self-evident.

"It's to kill someone, but if you kill that Gao Sheng, it will only disgust Lu Bu, and the gains outweigh the losses." Ye Zheng shook his head and said.

"Then ......" Wang Shuang looked at Ye Zheng puzzled, if you don't kill Gao Sheng, who will you kill?

"If Cao Ang dies, do you say that even if Cao Cao is willing to form an alliance with Lu Bu, will Lu Bu rest assured?" A murderous intent flashed in Ye Zheng's eyes.

"Sir wants to kill Cao Ang!?" Wang Shuang looked at Ye Zheng in amazement.

"It's better than killing Gao Sheng, and Gao is promoted to Lu Bu's henchman, there are many people around him, even if we kill him, it will be difficult to escape from this Wan City, and that Cao Ang is around, but there are only twenty guards, and it is not difficult to kill him." Ye Zheng looked at Wang Shuang and smiled: "Scared? ”

"Sir's words, the last general will fight on the battlefield with Mr., why have you ever been afraid?" Wang Shuangyi straightened his chest and said loudly.

"Okay, that Cao Ang's residence, I have obtained it through Mrs. Luoyan before, tonight's third watch, you gather all the horses and horses, follow me to strangle Cao Ang, as soon as this person dies, then Lu Bu can only take refuge in us." Ye Zheng said with a smile.

"Sir's Brilliant Idea!" When Wang Shuang heard this, he agreed, and followed Ye Zheng back to the post house.

In order to avoid a conflict between the envoys of the two sides, Lu Bu deliberately placed Ye Zheng and Cao Ang's men and horses in two post houses, but the interesting thing is that the two post houses are not far away.

After visiting Gao Sheng, Cao Angke did not return to the post house immediately, and successively went to visit Song Xian and Wei Xu, two generals who stayed in Wancheng, with generous gifts, as for the others, they were stationed in all sides, Cao Ang couldn't visit for a while, and Gao Sheng, Wei Xu and Song Xian helped to speak, Cao Ang felt that things were easier to succeed, and it was not until late at night that he dragged his somewhat tired body back to the post house.

This time, in order to successfully persuade Lu Bu to form an alliance, he can be regarded as painstaking, but it was not in vain, he has successfully persuaded Gao Sheng and Wei Xu to speak for him, as for Song Xian, although he did not agree, he did not refuse, Cao Ang is ready to try again tomorrow.

The arrival of Ye Zhao's envoy made Cao Ang feel a great sense of crisis, and he had to convince these people as soon as possible to successfully complete this mission.

Cao Ang, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by a pungent smell of blood.

"Someone!" Smelling the rich smell of blood in the air, Cao Ang was sure that he was not dreaming, looked around with some surprise, and shouted in a deep voice.

This time, he was accompanied by the most elite soldiers of the Haw Par Battalion, and Cao Ang did not think that anyone could kill these people without a word.

It's just that Cao Ang screamed, but no one answered, which made Cao Ang a little panicked, and hurriedly got out of bed and fumbled to carry the saber in his hand.

The door suddenly opened, and some cool night breeze rushed towards him, which made Cao Ang's head suddenly sober up a lot, and a figure stood at the door, with his back to the door, unable to see clearly.

"Who are you?" Cao Ang took a few steps back quietly, drew his sword in his hand, and looked at the black shadow.

"Ye Zheng!" The person who came said indifferently: "Speaking of which, you and I can also be regarded as friends in the world, when my father was in Chang'an, he praised Ling Zun more than once." ”

Ye Zheng!?

Cao Ang was slightly stunned, who is Ye Zheng, he naturally knows that no matter what the reason is, being able to make Cao Hong suffer is enough to explain Ye Zheng's ability, but what he can't understand is how Ye Zheng is here?

But at this moment, it was obviously not the time to think about this issue, Cao Hong looked at the other party intently, and said coldly: "But I don't know why Ye Shizi came here for no reason?" ”

"Why is Brother Cao here, why is the younger brother here?" Ye Zheng walked slowly towards Cao Ang, and an invisible aura spread, making Cao Ang feel a little out of breath in his chest.

"So, you want to kill me?" Cao Ang looked at Ye Zheng and said coldly.

"Actually, I don't need my little brother to do anything about this." Ye Zheng said indifferently: "It's just that you and I are world friends, and Brother Cao's status is noble, so letting Brother Cao die at the hands of a nobody is a little disrespectful, yes, the little brother came in person to send Brother Cao on the road!" ”

In other words, his own guards have really been poisoned!

Cao Ang's heart continued to sink, looking at Ye Zheng, but he didn't want to show weakness, and sneered: "It's a pity, you took a wrong step." ”

"Oh?" Ye Zheng slowly drew his sword, looked in Cao Ang's direction and said, "I want to hear about it." ”

"You shouldn't have come in person, you said that if you and I both die here, what will Lu Bu do?" Cao Ang sneered and began to approach Ye Zheng, his swordsmanship was passed down from Wang Yue's disciple Shi A, and he had also killed the enemy in battle, and it was not bad.

"This is a little unpredictable, but it's just a hypothesis, it will only be Brother Cao who will die tonight!" Ye Zheng shook his head and smiled.

"Not necessarily!" As soon as Cao Ang finished speaking, the distance between the two sides was already extremely close, and he only needed one step to fight, and with a roar of the tiger, he was about to step forward and kill Ye Zheng.

"Poof~"

With a muffled sound, Cao Ang only felt a pain in his chest, and he couldn't help but move, and raised his head incredibly, but saw Ye Zheng pull one and set it on fire, looked at Cao Ang who was holding his chest in pain, and said with a smile: "The little brother only said that he was here to send Brother Cao on the road, but he didn't say that he wanted to fight with Brother Cao for life and death, did Brother Cao misunderstand what the little brother said?" ”

In the dim candlelight, I saw Ye Zheng pick up the sword on the table again with his right hand, return the sword to the sheath, and carry a delicate small crossbow in his left hand.

Then what do you mean by drawing your sword!?

Cao Ang clutched his chest and stared painfully at the sword in Ye Zheng's hand.

"Distract you!" Ye Zheng looked at Cao Ang's five fingers, laughed, raised the small crossbow in his hand again, and pointed an arrow at Cao Ang's eyebrows.

"Poof~"

The crossbow arrow pierced through the skull, and Cao Ang's eyes suddenly became frozen, and he fell to the ground silently.

Ye Zheng stepped forward and kicked away Cao Ang's hand covering his chest, although the crossbow arrow was inserted in his chest, there was no blood oozing, obviously, Cao Ang was wearing protective soft armor.

"Sir, the people in the station, kill them all!" Wang Shuang walked in, glanced at Cao Ang's corpse, and bowed.

"A fire burned down the station." Glancing at Cao Ang, Ye Zheng shook his head with some regret, left a word, and went straight to the door.

"Whoa!" Wang Shuang bowed in agreement.

Soon, the post station where Cao Ang lived suddenly burst into flames, shocking the entire Wancheng.
