There is only one desk in the room, and at each end of the desk, there is a lamp, which emits an orange light, and the room is also plated with a warm orange color.

Qiao Mao was sitting upright behind the desk, holding a bamboo scroll in his hand, reading with relish, hearing the sound of the door, he was unmoved, until Lu Bu greeted him and sat down opposite him, he raised his eyes from the scroll, frowned, and replied indifferently: "Why, don't you hand over Qiao Mou, in exchange for a piece of credit?" ”

"Hah!"

Lu Bu seemed to hear something very funny, snorted, and said with a smile: "Since I have detained Brother Qiao here, I don't plan to hand it over to ask for credit, why, Brother Qiao seems to have put life and death aside?" ”

"What joy is there in life, and what is there to fear in death? Qiao Mao is full of heart and loyalty, how can you and other flies and dogs know in vain......"

"Brother Bridge, stop!"

Lu Bu waved his hand again and again, interrupted Qiao Mao's high-minded talk, and said with a wry smile: "Don't flaunt yourself so highly, as if you don't eat the fireworks of the world, isn't it just a rebellion against the court, in your opinion, it is loyalty, but in fact, it is loyalty or stupidity, after some time, you will understand." ”

Seeing Qiao Mao throw the scroll on the desk unhappily, and put out a pair of jiashi who wanted to debate with him clearly, Lu Bu waved his hand again and again, and said quickly: "I don't want to debate this with Brother Qiao, there is a good saying, Lu Yao knows the horsepower, and he will see the hearts of the people for a long time, it doesn't matter if Brother Qiao doesn't understand it now, when the time comes, you will naturally understand." The reason why I am willing to take a big risk and detain Brother Qiao here is because I am entrusted by others and loyal to people. ”

"Entrusted?"

Qiao Mao was puzzled, but his attention was successfully diverted by Lu Bu.

Lu Bu nodded, pointed to Qiao Mao, and replied: "Exactly, before Lu left Jinyang, Cai Weng once told me that he and Qiao Gong are close friends, if possible, you want me to take care of Brother Qiao, you see, now is the time for me to take care of Brother Qiao." ”

Qiao Mao's brows furrowed even tighter, obviously puzzled by Lu Bu's behavior, but Cai Weng, he knew, it was said that he committed a crime and was imprisoned a year ago, and then migrated to the border.

It's just that he didn't expect that Cai Weng would be left in Jinyang by Lu Bu.

"Okay, Lu won't say much about these things."

Lu Bu stood up and said to Qiao Mao with a smile, "After a while, when the limelight passes, I will arrange someone to send Brother Qiao to Jinyang, Brother Qiao can stay there for a while longer, look around, and when the Kwantung rebels are scattered, Brother Qiao will have no problem wherever he wants to go." ”

"Humph!"

Qiao Mao didn't appreciate it, sneered, and said, "The princes of the Kwantung region are going their own way? Let's be delusional! ”

"Oh? Is this sentence my wishful thinking? ”

Lu Bu looked at Qiao Mao with a smile, and when he saw his pride and confidence, he sat down opposite him again, looked over with interest, and proposed, "How about it, Brother Qiao, do you want to bet with me?" ”

Qiao Mao shook her head and said disdainfully: "Hmph, vulgar, vulgar!" ”

Lu Bu hahadaxiao, unimpressed by Qiao Mao's contempt, said: "If I gamble with Brother Qiao, I will not win, and I will not match Brother Qiao's high level." In this way, let's change the gambling method, from now on, the limit is one year, if the Kwantung rebels still work together, entrenched in sour dates, or march westward to break through the Tiger Prison Pass, then I will lose, and Brother Qiao can ask me to do something that does not violate morality; On the contrary, if the Kwantung rebels go their separate ways and scatter as birds and beasts, Brother Qiao will lose, and I can also ask Brother Qiao to do something for me that does not violate morality, how about it? ”

Qiao Mao was about to shake his head and refuse, but in a moment of thought, he groaned again, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this matter could be tried, if at that time, he could ask the pastor in front of him to do something that did not violate morality, wouldn't he be able to try to persuade him to join the Kwantung Coalition Army?

After pondering for a moment, Qiao Mao looked at Lu Bu waiting for his reply there, and immediately clapped his hands and said, "Okay, this method is very novel, Qiao Mou will gamble!" ”

Lu Bu was overjoyed, proudly hahadaxiao, and laughed at Qinggao Qiao Mao in his heart: Xiaoxiao, you still dare to play with Lao Tzu, see if I don't play you in the palm of my hand this time, if it weren't for Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, how could Lao Tzu be so patient and play this with you.

At this time, Lu Bu was not afraid of losing the bet, he was afraid that Qiao Mao would not gamble, the people in the Kwantung Coalition Army, all of them had ghost thoughts, if they could attack Luoyang smoothly, they would definitely run faster than anyone else, but now the imperial court only sent an elite army of more than 20,000 people, and even defeated all the departments of the coalition army.

In time, when the Kwantung Coalition Army discovers that the Tiger Prison High in front of them is so unbreakable, what will they think?

Coming out of Qiaomao, Lu Bu was in a very good mood, humming a Divine Comedy tune all the way, returning to his temporary residence, and after completing his daily homework, he rested early.

In a trance, Lu Bu found himself standing in a courtyard, looking up, the sky was blue and deep, as if the whole earth was not covered under the blue sky, but inlaid in a huge sapphire, dotted with white clouds, breezy and warm, but not hot.

In the courtyard, the shade of the trees is quiet, the fragrance of flowers is fragrant, as Lu Bu stepped on the curved path paved with cobblestones, all kinds of strange flowers and plants on both sides are in full bloom, even on the cobblestone path, there are also small flowers of different colors blooming, as far as the eye can see, it is no longer a tree-lined courtyard, but a sea of flowers, extending to the end of the line of sight in all directions.

In the center of the sea of flowers, there were two beauties dancing there, but with a slight thought in his heart, Lu Bu found himself lying comfortably in the sea of flowers, enjoying the song and dance of the two beauties.

The melodious music is fluttering, I don't know where it comes from, and I don't know where to go, the two beauties are in front of Lu Bu, dancing, the two of them are generally tall, generally fat and thin, graceful, and even their appearances are also generally beautiful.

"Big Joe! Joe! “

Lu Bu had an understanding in his heart, and the two in front of him were Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, who he never forgot.

The only difference is the singing voices of the two, Da Qiao is gentle and low, like Wu Nong's soft words, with a slight sigh that makes people's hearts melt; Xiao Qiao is crisp and delicate, like a silver bell, with a mesmerizing and itchy cheerful wave.

The eyes are also different, Da Qiao is warm and affectionate, smiling, with the shyness of wanting to refuse and welcome; Little Joe is fiery and violent, with a passion that makes people dance with her.

Lu Bu was drunk, and the whole person was intoxicated with boundless gentleness, and he didn't even want to move his fingers.

As soon as his mind moved, the singing and dancing of Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao changed slightly, the light yarn fluttered, and the delicate carcass wanted to be hidden, which was provocative.

Lu Bu didn't know when, he had already stepped into the field, under the blue sky and white clouds, in the spring breeze of the sea of flowers, dancing with Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, his singing voice was still gentle and low, crisp and delicate, and the moaning sound seemed to be a sigh that penetrated his heart, and it seemed to be a murmur when love was strong.

The rooster crowed, Lu Bu woke up from the boundless dream, lay on the bed alone, and reminisced beautifully for a long time, then fell asleep again with a sweet smile.

He hasn't realized that Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao in his dream actually look more like a person, such as removing Da Qiao's charm and Xiao Qiao's hotness, it is clearly Cai Yan, who is skillful and elegant.

Cai Yan, Diao Chan, Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, among the four beauties, Lu Bu has only seen Cai Yan alone, and he still has no clue how amazing the beauty of the other three is.

Getting up early in the morning and finishing grooming, Lu Bu stretched his waist deeply against the blue sky, feeling that his whole body was full of energy, and his mood was even better.

His hunch was quite accurate, the three-day army had not yet ended, and the scouts were quickly returned, and the Kwantung rebels had advanced in three directions and came straight to Xingyang.

The vanguard army led by Cao Cao was defeated in Xingyang, Weizi and Bao Tao, the prime minister of Jibei, were killed in battle, and the whereabouts of Dongjun Taishou Qiaomao were unknown, and only Cao Cao, the general of Fenwu, and Yuan Yuan, the Taishou of Shanyang, fled back in embarrassment.

After learning the news, Yuan Shao, the leader of the coalition army, could no longer hold back the anger in his heart, and could not bear the shame of being repeatedly slapped in the face by the Xiliang army.

The right wing is Youzhou Mu Lu Zhi led Youzhou soldiers and horses, the general of the right Beiping Taishou Gongsun Zhan, and the soldier Cao is engaged in Liu Bei; The left flank is the soldiers and horses led by Yanzhou Mu Liu Dai, and the generals Liu Xuan, Wang Yu, and Wang Qiu under the account.

The middle route army is Yuan Shao's own lord, except for leaving Jizhou Mu Hanfu and Xuzhou Mu Taoqian to garrison sour jujube and supervise the transportation of grain and salary, the other princes of all walks of life led the army to accompany them.

The tangled soldiers and horses, totaling nearly 150,000, were huge, with an unrivaled coercion, which could be said to be rolling towards Xingyang.

As expected, when Yuan Shao led the army to approach Xingyang, Tanma had already found out the exactly, the Xiliang army had retreated, and Xingyang had become an empty city.

Stationed in Xingyang, the army rested for a day, during which Yuan Shao received countless praises, and everyone was high-spirited and full of ambition.

In their opinion, what about the Tiger Prison Pass, and how about the high walls of Luoyang City, in front of the army, the Xiliang Army's most haode strategy is to retreat all the way, if you really want to mantis blocking the car, and the mayfly shakes the tree, it can't explain any other problems except that the Xiliang generals have no brains.

Among the people, Cao Cao was the only one who was worried, and the twilight was sinking, Cao Cao rode his horse and stood ten miles west of Xingyang City, looking at the direction of the Tiger Prison Pass hidden in the mountains, and was silent for a long time.

Behind him, Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Cao Hong, Cao Ren, and the four generals were all there, and farther away, there were hundreds of personal guards.

If he was given a choice, he would rather have the Xiliang Army fight the coalition army in Xingyang than retreat without a fight like now.

With his limited understanding of the Western Liang Army, he was very soberly aware that in terms of the ability to control the army, the way to govern the army, and the courage and good fighting of the soldiers, all the departments of the Western Liang Army were far ahead of the Kwantung princes.

"Kansai is a general, Kanto is a minister, it's really not a lie."

Cao Cao muttered with emotion, but he was silently muttering in his heart: Luoyang, can I zaijian take a look?
