Zhang Zhao received Sun Quan's approval, and did not rush to Yizhou immediately, but walked towards Sima Yi's army.

He didn't bring many people, only a few guards with him.

Sima Yi had just arrived at the border of Jiaozhou and was about to lead his army into Jiaozhou, when a messenger sent news that Zhang Zhao had asked to see him and asked him to suspend his march.

Receiving Zhang Zhao's request, Sima Yi just smiled indifferently and ordered the soldiers to continue the march.

It was Lu Bu who rode away with Sima Yi.

Lu Bu is now over the age of six, although he is still majestic, but he no longer has the vigor of his youth.

He asked Sima Yi: "Zhang Zhao asked Zhong Da to suspend the march, but Zhong Da ignored it at all, is it too shameless to give him face?" ”

"Zhang Zhao asked to see me, just to come and ask for surrender. If I really ordered the soldiers to be stationed on the spot, he would feel that our army was easy to deal with, and he might not be able to do anything behind his back. Sima Yi replied: "He came to beg me, but I just ignored it to make him feel more urgent." ”

"Zhong Da is really thoughtful." Lu Bu smiled slightly, and said to Sima Yi: "I also guessed that he came to ask for surrender, but I didn't think about it so much. ”

"Yizhou has been taken by the lord, and most of the world is pacified." Sima Yi replied: "Now only Jiaozhou Sun Zhongmou remains. If I were Sun Zhongmou, I would never be an enemy of the lord at such a time. Offering Jiaozhou and asking the lord to surrender was the only choice Sun Zhongmou could make. ”

"Zhang Zhao is here, how is Zhongda going to deal with it?" Lu Bu asked.

"Ignore his pleas." Sima Yi said: "The army still continues to advance, and if the enemy dares to resist, we will destroy them." If the Jiaozhou soldiers and horses do not resist, we will advance all the way and surround Sun Zhongmou. The army is pressing, as long as Sun Zhongmou dares to say that he refuses to surrender, we can attack immediately, I still don't believe it, Zhang Zhao went to Yizhou, and the lord can't get benefits from him. ”

Lu Bu nodded: "Although I am old, I still have some strength to lead the army to fight." It is also our blessing to see the unification of the world when we are alive! ”

"Of course." Sima Yi said: "If it weren't for the invincible martial arts of the Lord Gongwen, we don't know how long the world will be chaotic, and we don't know how long we will be adrift." ”

Lu Bu sighed softly and didn't say anything more.

In the Yellow Turban Rebellion, he followed Ding Yuan to conquer the south and the north, and later a lot of things happened, prompting him to first kill Ding Yuan and switch to Dong Zhuo, and later kill Dong Zhuo to be close to Wang Yun. Later, he even served Yuan Shao......

It wasn't until he was cast under Cao Shuo's account that Lu Bu was completely settled.

In troubled times, people's interests are constantly changing.

Sometimes, his interests are tied to some, and other times, his interests are tied to others.

Due to the change of interests, he always wandered between different people, and finally brought him the notoriety of a three-surname domestic slave.

In the first battle of Xiapi, Liu Bei almost killed him with a word.

If Cao Shuo hadn't stepped forward to save him, he would have become a dry bone in the grave back then.

The world is finally going to be calmed, and although it is not him who has calmed the world, it is Cao Shuo, who he has been following.

can't achieve a great cause, at least he supported Cao Shuo to achieve hegemony.

Carrying Fang Tian's halberd, he walked side by side with Sima Yi, and after a long time, Lu Bu said: "I have followed the lord for many years, and now I have finally waited for the day when the world will be unified." ”

"The world is not unified yet." Sima Yi replied with a smile: "If we fail to take Jiaozhou, the lord will spend many days in the future to deal with Jiaozhou." ”

"But if Sun Zhongmou has some brains, he should also know that with Jiaozhou, it is impossible to resist the lord." Lu Bu asked Sima Yi: "In this crusade, in addition to us, there is also the navy of General Chengcheng. Even if we promise Zhang Zhao, we will only surround Sun Zhongmou for the time being, in case General Guan doesn't agree......"

"As long as Sun Zhongmou is sincere in his work, General Guan will agree." Sima Yi replied with great certainty.

Not quite understanding where Sima Yi's confidence came from, Lu Bu glanced at him and didn't ask any more.

Zhang Zhao sent a letter to Sima Yi, asking him to suspend the march, but Sima Yi ignored it at all.

The Wei army advanced into the hinterland of Jiaozhou, and Zhang Zhao rode his horse against them.

Ordered to consult with Sima Yi not to attack Jiaozhou for the time being, Zhang Zhao knew that once he stopped, Jiaozhou would immediately fall into a dangerous situation.

Sima Yi must lead a large army to surround Sun Quan's regiment before he is willing to negotiate surrender with them.

In order to make Sima Yi farther away from Sun Quan, Zhang Zhao could only urge the horse to go faster.

Jiaozhou is not very big, but the road is more difficult.

After walking for two days and two nights, Zhang Zhaocai saw a black pressure in front of him from a distance, and he didn't know how many people and horses.

Seeing that army, although he didn't see who was leading the army, Zhang Zhao knew that it must be Sima Yi who came.

Urging the horses to speed up, Zhang Zhao galloped away towards Sima Yi.

Seeing that he was only thirty or forty steps away from Sima Yi, the army on the opposite side rushed out twenty or thirty fast horses.

"Stop coming!" The officer in front of him drank Zhang Zhao and the others: "What are you doing?" ”

"Please tell General Sima." Zhang Zhao arched his hand to the officer: "Jiaozhou Zhang Zhao, there is something important to discuss with the general." ”

"Wait." The officer replied very unceremoniously and explained to the soldiers who came with him: "Show me well, no one is allowed to walk around at will!" ”

The soldiers agreed, and the officer turned around and walked towards Sima Yi.

When he came to Sima Yi, he was about to report it, but Sima Yi stopped him: "Bring people here." ”

After receiving the order, the officer came to Zhang Zhao's side again.

When he arrived in front of Zhang Zhao, the officer said, "The general has an order, let you come with me." ”

"Thank you!" Zhang Zhao thanked the officer and followed him to Sima Yi's side.

Coming to Sima Yi, Zhang Zhao turned over and dismounted, made a big salute and said: "Jiaozhou Zhang Zhao, I have seen General Sima!" ”

"Zhang Gong doesn't have to be like this." Sima Yi said: "If you have anything to say, just say it, I still have to lead the army forward, you might as well get on the horse and talk slowly." ”

"Please give the order for the army to slow down for the time being." Zhang Zhao said: "I came this time to ask the general for peace. ”

"Slow?" Sima Yi shook his head with a smile: "I can do whatever I want, but the army is slowing down, and Zhang Gong still don't mention it again." ”

was rejected by Sima Yi, and Zhang Zhao's face was a little unpleasant.

He was full of unhappiness, but he didn't dare to attack, so he had to say to Sima Yi: "I did come to make peace with the general, and I have no other intentions......

"If there are other intentions, I can't let the soldiers stop." Sima Yi said: "If Zhang Gong has to say it after he is stationed, then wait until the evening and come to my account to discuss in detail." ”
