The sky is slightly bright, in Haixi City, shrouded in a bit of sad atmosphere, last night's battle, Guan Hai's six hundred brave and ten not one, Guan Hai's men and horses after this battle, can be regarded as disabled, the survivors gathered together, crying for the dead brothers.

Guan Hai came to Lu Bu's side with a heavy face, looked at Lu Bu, opened his mouth, and didn't know how to speak, behind him, He Yi, He Man and a sturdy young man were silent.
"Take me to see them." Lu Bu looked at Guan Hai, although he didn't speak, Lu Bu probably knew what Guan Hai wanted to say.
"Yes, my lord." Guan Hai nodded, and a group of four led the way for Lu Bu, with Zhang Liao and Gao Shun following behind Lu Bu.
The Haixi school field has now been occupied by Lu Bu's soldiers and horses, as for the county soldiers stationed here in Haixi, the status is not as good as that of these four major families, and now seeing that the people of the four major families are almost pressed back, how dare they talk nonsense, looking at these sad strong men, these fierce soldiers under Lu Bu can't help but feel a sense of sadness for the rabbit and the fox.
Accompanied by a group of generals, Lu Bu came to this group of mourning soldiers, looking at the hundreds of men crying bitterly in front of him, he felt a little guilty, but then hardened his heart, took a deep breath, and shouted: "Get up for me!" ”
"Quick, get up!" Guan Hai opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but it was Lu Bu's cold eyes that met him, his heart darkened, and he hurriedly urged his subordinates.
A famous man stood up, but his face was not very good-looking, and his gaze at Lu Bu was also a little unkind, Lu Bu glared back one by one, and as far as his eyes could see, he lowered his head one by one.
"Lift up your heads." Lu Bu said in a deep voice: "Crying, is it useful?" Can you bring back the dead soldiers? Who will pity you except to make people laugh? ”
Looking at the strong men who raised their heads unconsciously, Lu Bu said in a deep voice: "I heard Guan Hai say that you are the elite selected from the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army back then. ”
"A few hundred people selected from the 300,000 yellow scarves." Lu Buyou looked around: "I originally thought that all of them were top heroes, but now, all I see is a group of crying girls!" ”
"Roar~" A strong man closest to Lu Bu suddenly roared, and pounced on Lu Bu like crazy with red eyes.
"Smack~"
Without waiting for Guan Hai to speak, Lu Bu had already slapped out, a man of more than 100 catties was just slapped to the ground by Lu Bu like a fly, and he couldn't get up for a long time, the original group of men who were provoked by Lu Bu were cold in their hearts, and their eyes looked at Lu Bu with a little more awe, they came out of a fierce battle of life and death, and what they believed in in their bones was also the law of the jungle that respected the strong, and the strength shown by Lu Bu coupled with Lu Bu's name made these bandits feel awe.
"Okay, it looks like I'm wrong, it's a man." Lu Bu glanced at the man who was struggling to stand up, and nodded with satisfaction.
"When the Yellow Turbans were destroyed, you survived, the Battle of Qingzhou, 50,000 Yellow Turban Army was exterminated by the official army, and you survived tenaciously, just last night, five thousand Xuzhou and despicable and shameless sneak attack and ambush, you were outnumbered, you still survived, I believe, the big waves wash the sand, and those who stay are all gold."
With Lu Bu's words, the emotions of a famous bandit were gradually mobilized, and the grief caused by the casualties of his companions gradually dissipated, replaced by a stream of blood that surged straight up from his cavity.
"Good men shed blood without tears, I also believe that you can go through these countless cruel battles and still survive to this day, you are all men who stand up to the sky, your tears are more precious than blood, pat your chest, ask your hearts, in this world, what else is worth your tears." Lu Bu patted his chest, looked at a group of bandits whose eyes gradually became hot, and roared: "The death of our brothers, we can grieve, but we must not shed tears, if there are tears, they will be held back for me, it's not that it's not worth it, but crying, we can't solve any problems, we have to use the blood of the enemy to wash away the shame they brought us, instead of crying here like cowards." ”
Looking at a group of men who were gradually hiding their sadness, Lu Bu nodded with satisfaction, turned his head to look at Guan Hai and said, "Your big leader, Guan Hai, I hope to take you to join me and fight the world with me, to chop off the heads of those enemies who brought us pain in the past!" ”
A group of bandits and the soldiers under Lu Bu's command couldn't help but laugh when they heard this, Lu Bu said rudely, but it made these men feel cordial.
"I'm so happy because of your heroic performance last night, which touched my heart." Lu Bu said loudly: "But your current performance makes me hesitate, these around you are all soldiers I brought out from Xiapi, although they have been defeated, I can pat my chest and tell you, even if we were besieged by Cao Cao's 100,000 army, they were not afraid at all, let alone shed half a tear!" They will only use the sword in their hands to tell the enemy that the pain that the enemy has brought us, and we will pay back tenfold and hundredfold! They are true warriors in my heart, every single one of them. ”
A group of soldiers under Lu Bu's tent couldn't help but puff up their chests when they heard this, and looked at these bandits proudly.
"It won't be long before the Xuzhou soldiers will come to chase and kill us, but we are not afraid!" Lu Brown said: "Even if there is no city, even if there are enemies on all sides, we will use the sword in our hands to tell the enemy that we are tigers and wolves, even if we are downcast now, and our enemy is sheep, even if there are many sheep, when they see us, they must walk around." ”
"Roar~"
Hearing this, a group of soldiers couldn't help but raise their weapons and let out an excited roar, responding to Lu Bu's words.
"General, we will also follow you, follow the big leader!" One of the bandits suddenly took a step forward, tried to straighten his chest, and shouted loudly to Lu Bu.
In the depths of Lu Bu's eyes, a look of satisfaction flashed, this time he crossed Surabaya in one fell swoop, subdued the four major families of Haixi, not only successfully got out of the predicament temporarily, but also captured more than 200 war horses in Haixi, these war horses naturally cannot be idle, he still has a long way to go in the future, and he will have to lay a territory for himself in the future.
Fighting the world is not a matter of one person, even if he recovers the strength of his predecessor at the peak, it is impossible to fight the world alone, in addition to his personal ability, he must also have an iron-blooded division in his hands.
It's not enough to have five hundred iron horsemen in his hands, but he can't blindly recruit people, he wants elites.
It's just that the elite of the world, how can it be so easy to recruit in this period, not to mention that he is now a rogue team, even if there is a stable territory, to train an elite, from selection to training, it will take a year to become an army, but now there is no year to let himself stumble, if he really settles in this Haixi, I am afraid it will not be long, after Cao Cao defeats Yuan Shu, he will fight again, and staying in Haixi is a dead end, so it is impossible for him to stay.
The soldiers and horses in front of him undoubtedly have enough conditions, follow Guan Hai all the way from Qingzhou, from the period of the Yellow Turban Rebellion to the present, more than ten years of time to fight, just like Lu Bu said, the big waves and sand, can survive until now, they are all ruthless characters, so even if Guan Hai does not mention it, he will also bring this team of men and horses under his command, although it cannot be compared with the five hundred iron cavalry around Lu Bu, but what is lacking is real systematic combat training, which can be completely made up for on the next road.
"I'm a rogue now, and the road ahead is not easy, and my life will be in danger at any time." Lu Bu grinned and looked at the bandit.
"We're not afraid!" The bandit showed a fierce momentum: "In the past ten years, we have not been rogues one day, and we have long been used to it." ”
Lu Bu nodded and looked at Guan Hai.
Guan Hai nodded excitedly, took a step, and said loudly: "Brothers, today, my old manager officially tells you that in the future, we will all be under the command of Wen Hou, from today onwards, there will be no big leader, only General Guan, and I will not call the lord soon." ”
"See the lord!" When a group of bandits heard this, they all knelt down to Lu Bu.
"Get up, you will be your own brothers in the future, and if you have a bite to eat with my Lu Bu, you won't be hungry brothers." Lu Bu laughed and said: "Although Haixi has been taken by us now, I regret to tell you that we can't stay here, Cao Cao will not let us develop here with peace of mind, those families in Xuzhou, those who oppressed us in the past, will not let us develop here with peace of mind, staying here is a dead end, so we have to continue to go, if any brother is unwilling to go, want to stay, it is still too late to quit now, I Lu Bu promised, I will not embarrass anyone!" ”
When a group of bandits heard this, no one spoke, they were all Yellow Turban veterans, and it wouldn't be long before they stayed, without Lu Bu's protection, I am afraid that they would be taken to receive a reward, not to mention that they have been wandering for more than ten years, and they have long been accustomed to the life of sleeping in the open.
"Okay, now, follow our people, go to learn riding, set off at noon, there must be no mistake!" Lu Bu nodded and said in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
On the edge of the school field, Chen Gong took Hao Zhao and Xu Sheng to watch Lu Bu from a distance to boost morale, Xu Sheng looked at Lu Bu with a somewhat strange look in his eyes, is this the legendary brave and unscrupulous horseman?
"Wen Xiang." Chen Gong turned his head and looked at Xu Sheng's expression, knowing that Xu Sheng was a little moved.
"Sir." Xu Sheng came back to his senses and turned his head to look at Chen Gong.
"I said everything that should be said, Wen Hou's words just now, I think you also heard it, if you decide, you will leave with us today, if you still don't want to, the palace will not be difficult."
Xu Sheng looked in Lu Bu's direction and nodded silently.
