"Mr. can come to help me, Bu Zhen can't help but be overjoyed, tomorrow morning, I will write to His Majesty, for Mr. to recommend!"

Lu Butong Xun Yu said.

Xun You waved his hand and said with a smile: "I am already very satisfied to be appreciated by Wen Hou, I just want to be able to deal with some trivial matters by Wen Hou's side, and I still don't care about those things in the court." ”

"This?" Lu Bu was stunned for a moment, he knew that after Xun You followed Cao Cao in the history of the Dao, he kept a low profile, did not get involved in the affairs of the court, and only stayed by Cao Cao's side to give advice.

Xun You hugged his fists and said: "These days, I stay in Jingzhou, I am used to being casual, if I am asked to deal with those annoying annoyances all day long, it will suffocate me, please wait for it." ”

Lu Bu smiled, "Since Gongda is unwilling, then forget it, but I still want to write to the court and reward Mr." ”

"Thank you for your wait!" Xun Yu no longer refused.

Lu Bu raised his head and took a sip of wine, then turned his head to look at Jia Xu, "Military Division, I don't know how the situation in Xiliang is?" ”

For Lu Bu, Guanzhong has been decided, and the next step is Xiliang, which is located in the eastern part of the Western Regions, with strong people, a large population, and great strategic significance, and most importantly, it can replenish enough troops for Lu Bu's army.

In the case of the current Guanzhong, it is withered and dilapidated, the population is sparse, and it is impossible to recruit soldiers at all, and for the sake of economic development, it is necessary to encourage the people to produce more, and it is even more impossible to recruit soldiers.

Although Hanoi and other places were pacified this time, and the 50,000 troops of Zhang Yang and others were absorbed, most of these people were weak soldiers without fighting, and there was still a long way to go if they wanted to become elite soldiers.

Moreover, they also have to defend Yuan Shao on the other side. The Huns also often invaded the border. This also required Zhang Liao to arrange soldiers to defend on the northern front. Therefore, the soldiers on the northern front could not move, and they also needed to be supplied by Lu Bu.

The eastern fronts such as Wuguan and Hangu Pass were guarded by Gao Shun, with 20,000 troops, which was small in itself.

Pang De in Longxi also has only 20,000 troops.

The defenders of Chang'an. In addition to the 5,000 wolf cavalry, there are only 25,000 infantry troops left, most of which are Xiliang soldiers, for Lu Bu, who wants to pacify the world, this amount of troops is simply not enough to stuff people's teeth.

Jia Xu said: "Ma Teng and Han Sui have been in a stalemate in martial arts for many days, regardless of victory or defeat, recently, some small warlords in Xiliang took advantage of the internal fighting between the two to grab territory everywhere and attack the lair of the two. As a result, the two reached an agreement for a short strike. At the same time, the troops were withdrawn. ”

Lu Bu asked, "Then according to the opinion of the military advisor, how should I pacify Xiliang?" ”

Jia Xu smiled: "I do have a plan, I don't know if the lord dares to use it." ”

Lu Bu said with a smile: "But if the military advisor says, how dare Bu not listen to it, and ask the military advisor to make it clear." ”

Jia Xu waved his feather fan, "The lord can lead the army to Xiliang, take Ma Chao and Ma Dai with them, return them to Ma Teng, and then wait and see what happens." ”

"Hmmm! Put Ma Chao away. Lu Bu was shocked, if he hadn't caught Ma Chao, he would have fought with Ma Han, and it was almost impossible to pacify Guanzhong so quickly.

Jia Xu said with a smile: "Is the lord worried that after letting the tiger return to the mountain, after releasing Ma Chao, Ma Teng will raise troops to attack us again?" The lord can rest assured, Wen He dares to say this, and he has his own certainty.

At present, there are more than a dozen small warlords in Xiliang, twisted into a rope, attacking Ma Teng and Han Sui's lair, Ma Teng has lost his strength in the battle with Han Sui, and if he wants to resist these small warlords, he will pay a great price.

The same is true for Han Sui. ”

Lu Bu smiled bitterly, "Military Master, I want to take Ma Chao for my own use, but let him go back this time, will he take Ma Teng and lead the army to surrender?" ”

Jia Xu said with a smile: "The lord doesn't have to worry too much, when the time comes, just follow the trend, and Xiliang will be returned to the lord." ”

Lu Bu lowered his head and thought for a moment, "Okay, just according to what the military advisor said." ”

I don't know what medicine is sold in Jia Xu's gourd, so Lu Bu can only do it.

"Where's Dian Wei? Did you go to Ma Chao to drink again? Lu Bu was in the seat, and he didn't find Dian Wei's figure, if he was there, he would definitely have the loudest voice, arguing to fight with others.

"It should be!" Jia Xu said with some loss, somehow, Dian Wei didn't bother him, he was still a little uncomfortable.

After the banquet, Lu Bu returned to the backyard and went to visit Yan's, Yan's big belly was extremely inconvenient, and Diao Chan was always by his side and carefully served.

"Ma'am." As soon as Lu Bu came in, he said with concern.

"General!" Yan and Diao Chan sat on the side, and when they saw Lu Bu coming in, they hurriedly stood up, and they had already learned that Lu Bu was back during the day, but Yan had a big belly, and it was inconvenient to go out to greet him.

"Sit down, there's no outsider here! Why talk about so many rituals. Lu Bu pretended to reprimand.

"No!" Yan and Diao Chan bowed their heads slightly.

"Count the days, in a while, my wife will be born, but in two days, I will lead the army to go out again, I'm afraid I can't wait for the child to be born." Lu Bu said apologetically.

"The general cares about the world and is a hero in the world, how can the concubine be tied to the general because of her own body, and I hope the general will take care of it." Yan said solemnly, a trace of helplessness and loss flashed in his eyes.

"Thank you, Madame, for your understanding." Lu Bu said ashamedly.

"I wonder what is the best name for a child after birth?" Yan asked.

Lu Bu smiled: "Let's talk about it when I come back!" ”

After telling Yan and Diao Chan, Lu Bu left, Yan had a big belly, Diao Chan wanted to accompany her to rest, he couldn't sleep next to them!

After walking out, Lu Bu vaguely heard cries and comforts, and couldn't help but sigh, in the troubled times, who can do what he wants?

I wanted to visit Cai Yan again, but when I thought that it was the middle of the night, and I was a big man to see her, there would inevitably be some gossip, although Cai Yan would definitely be one of his wives in the future, but for now, it was better to keep the etiquette.

How do I spend the long night?

Lu Bu looked at the night sky helplessly, full of emotion.

Dian Wei must still be in prison, well, okay, I'll go see Ma Chao and express my desire to be virtuous to him.

Thinking about it, Lu Bu carried a jar of wine and a roast goose, and rushed to the prison.

What disappointed Lu Bu was. Dian Wei is not there. Ma Chao. Ma Dai, the two brothers and sisters, had not slept yet, sitting together, talking about some Xiliang military, the two of them were locked up here, and what they were most worried about was Ma Teng's situation.

"Brother Meng Qi, how are you doing? Are you still used to this big prison? Lu Bu appeared in front of the two with a smile.

"Lu Bu!" Ma Chao and Ma Dai were startled at the same time, and in an instant, fire was about to erupt in their eyes. Every tooth will be crushed.

"Someone open the door!" Lu Bu said to the jailer.

"No!" The jailer ran over and opened the cell door, and as soon as the "creak" cell door was pushed open, Ma Chao and Ma Dai went crazy, and the two of them pounced on Lu Bu in unison.

Lu Bu remained motionless and looked at the two with a smile.

"Whoa!" When Ma Chao and Ma Dai were about to pounce in front of Lu Bu, they were stopped by the iron chains on their bodies, and they couldn't take a step forward.

"Damn!" Ma Chao roared angrily.

"Brother Meng Qi, your martial arts are outstanding, if I don't use an iron chain to tie you up. How can this big prison hold you! Lu Bu said with a smile.

"Lu Bu is going to die!" Ma Chao didn't seem to hear Lu Bu's words, and still yelled. The murderous aura and fighting intent that had been consumed slowly poured out and filled the entire prison, causing the temperature in the prison to drop sharply.

"Brother Meng Qi, you are also a famous family, don't always scream at every turn, this will make people look down on you." Lu Bu said with a smile.

"I don't need you to teach me a lesson!" Ma Chao roared angrily.

Ma Dai stopped, staring at Lu Bu angrily, as if Lu Bu was going to attack them.

Ma Chao listened to Lu Bu's words, and thought that after he was a famous family, he had to have quality, but in the face of Lu Bu, no matter how good his temper was, he was gone, and he slowly comforted himself in his heart and relaxed himself.

"What are you doing here? You don't seem to have to kill us yourself! Ma Chao's anger was half gone, and he asked coldly.

"Kill you! Why do I want to kill you, Brother Meng Qi, you are a big hero in my mind, at the age of a weak crown, you will be powerful and become a general, I have always admired you! ”

Lu Bu said in surprise, and shook the wine and meat in his hand towards Ma Chao's eyes, "Let's talk, so that Bu can say a word of admiration." ”

"Take it! I don't eat what you bring! Ma Chao said angrily.

When Lu Bu heard this, he almost fainted with laughter, what I brought was mine, wasn't the prison food in this prison provided by me Lu Bu?

Ma Dai swallowed his saliva, to be honest, Dian Wei likes to eat duck necks, so he brings them duck necks to eat every day, Ma Dai is tired of eating, he has long wanted to change his taste.

Ma Chao seemed to realize the inappropriate words, sat back in place, clasped his hands on his chest, and stopped talking.

Lu Bu also sat down, opened the mud seal of the wine jar, and suddenly, the aroma of wine wafted in the prison.

Integrity! I must keep my integrity!

Ma Chao said in his heart, trying his best not to ask about the aroma of the wine, turning his head sideways, not looking at the roast goose dripping with oil, his expression was serious, and his heart was uncomfortable.

Ma Dai is not as good as Ma Chao's concentration, he looked at the wine and meat with his eyes, and then looked at Lu Bu, and said in his heart, he cares about him, he was locked up by Lu Bu anyway, what's wrong with eating him!

"Brother Bozhan! Come! You're welcome, manly man, what does it look like! ”

Lu Bu smiled happily, tore off a roast goose leg, handed it to Ma Dai, took out a large bowl, poured wine for Ma Dai, and pushed it in front of Ma Dai.

"Humph!" Ma Chao snorted coldly.

Ma Dai's outstretched right hand, hearing this hum, was so frightened that he hurriedly took it back.

"Brother Meng Qi! You come too! ”

Lu Bu directly stuffed the goose leg into Ma Dai's hand, and then tore off the other goose leg and handed it to Ma Chao.

"I'm not hungry!" Ma Chao's nose moved, and he tilted his head over.

Ma Dai looked at the oily goose leg in his hand, no longer insisted, gobbled it up, and poured a few sips of wine violently, and within a moment, the goose leg had been wiped out.

"Brother, you don't eat goose legs, or give me food, tonight, I haven't eaten enough!" Ma Dai stared at the fat goose legs and said.

"Brother Bozhan, there is also a roast goose body here, not only goose legs can be eaten!" Lu Bu smiled slightly.

"I just like goose legs!"

As he spoke, Ma Dai snatched the goose leg from Lu Bu's hand, chewed it heavily, and made a noise while eating, and his eyes secretly glanced at Ma Chao.

"Brother! This roast goose is really good, you can eat it too! ”

Ma Dai persuaded.

Lu Bu also poured a bowl of wine for Ma Chao, pushed it in front of Ma Chao, and put the roast goose in front of Ma Chao, "Brother Meng Qi, we have a grudge, but you and your stomach have no grudge!" Even if you want to fight me, you have to eat your stomach! ”

"So, if I eat this roast goose, you will open the chains on my body, and I will fight?" Ma Chao asked rhetorically.

Lu Bu smiled, "No problem! ”

"Good!" Ma Chao sneered, quickly stretched out his hands, tore a piece of roast goose meat, and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Brother Meng Qi, eat slowly, there is time, don't rush, if it's not enough, I'm calling someone to prepare."

As he spoke, Lu Bu poured himself another bowl of wine and drank it slowly. (To be continued......)
