"Lord, they're coming!!"

"What?"

Lu Bu, who was resting in the tent, was startled and subconsciously got up.

Although it was not explicitly stated, in the encirclement of the War Spirit Army, there was no need to talk nonsense about who could come in.

These days, apart from coming to deliver food at a fixed point every day, the Battle Spirit Army has not had any direct contact with Lu Bujun, as if it was deliberately evading.

Lu Bu was a little strange at first, but then he thought about what he was bothering to do? simply put aside the unaccustomedness, eat and drink every day, and go to point (receive) (pick up) Ma Chao at leisure, and live a good life.

Lu Bu is a figure who has been a prince, and he knows that it is impossible for Shang Ji to raise them on the grassland like pigs for a lifetime. And the envoy is coming now, not too late, on the contrary, Lu Bu is surprised that they came too early!

According to Lü Bu's calculations, Shang Ji did not destroy the encircled Lü Bu corps at the first time, so he could only send envoys to persuade him to surrender when the overall situation was decided.

Now that the envoy is here, doesn't it mean that the Central Plains battlefield is over? Even if there was no him, Lu Bu, there were still three top princes, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, and Liu Bei, who were defeated by Shang Ji so quickly?

Thinking this in his heart, he did not hesitate in his actions, and led the people out to meet the messenger.

"I'll see Wen Hou later."

The envoy was very polite, and as soon as he saw Lu Bu, he took the initiative to salute, and did not put up any victors' shelves.

"The general of the defeated army is not brave enough, please come in!"

Lu Bu sighed and waved his hand to signal everyone to enter.

"Huh? Brother Xi? Why are you here? ”

But at this moment, a person behind Lu Bu suddenly exclaimed.

Everyone looked for prestige, but they saw that it was Yuan Shao's son Yuan Tan who spoke.

"Brother! It's great that you're okay, and your mother and father miss you so much! ”

One of the envoys of the Shang Ji army also shouted and said excitedly.

It turned out that Yuan Xi was also in the envoy group.

"Brother Xi, why are you here? Are your father and mother okay? How's the war going? ”

Yuan Tan couldn't hold back and asked a long list of questions in one breath.

Yuan Xi glanced at Yang Yi, the leader of the envoy group, with some embarrassment, Yang Yi nodded, signaling that Yuan Xi could answer Yuan Tan's question.

Seeing that Yang Yi agreed, Yuan Xi breathed a sigh of relief, ran to Yuan Tan's side, and explained in a low voice: "Brother, we were defeated, Zhang Yan led the Black Mountain Army to break through the Shang Di Division, and the rebel thief saw that the situation was not right, and betrayed his father, and his father vomited blood and fell into a coma under his grief, and after waking up, the general trend was gone." Now Shang Gong's army has taken control of Xindu, but everything is fine with his mother and relatives at home, but he misses his brother and brother. ”

"Father-in-Majesty surrendered? We lost? ”

Yuan Tan looked at Yuan Xi dumbfounded, and asked in disbelief.

Yuan Xi didn't speak, just nodded silently.

"What about my father? What happened to my father? ”

There was a sudden exclamation from the crowd, and everyone looked at it, and it turned out to be Cao Ang.

On the surface, this was a whisper between Yuan Xi and Yuan Tan brothers, including Lu Bu, everyone was stretching out their ears to eavesdrop, and hearing the exciting news of Zhang Yan's departure from the mountain, Lu Yi's betrayal, and Yuan Shao's surrender, Cao Ang couldn't hold back anymore and asked urgently.

Yuan Xi glanced at it with some disdain, and said disdainfully: "Princess Chang'an understands the righteousness, reins in the precipice, takes refuge in the Shang Gong, and takes advantage of Cao Cao's not being captured to capture Luoyang, Cao Cao is currently leading his troops to flee for his life, as for where he ran, I don't know!" ”

After speaking, Yuan Xi didn't wait for Liu Feng to ask, so he took the initiative to speak: "As for your father Liu Bei, at present, most of Xuzhou has been occupied by the Shang Duke, and Liu Bei is hiding in an inch of Xiapi and resisting stubbornly. ”

Yuan Xi's words are of course false, Cao Cao is currently steadily withdrawing his troops, and Luoyang has not fallen; Liu Bei was a little troublesome, and he was bitten by Zhao Yun, but now he doesn't see much of a problem.

Yuan Xi said this on the one hand to put pressure on Lu Bu, and on the other hand, he expressed disdain for Cao Cao and Liu Bei's behavior of pulling their legs and leaving when they saw that the situation was not good, and if Cao Cao and Liu Bei hadn't abandoned Yuan Shao as an ally at the last moment, Yuan Shao would not have been defeated so badly.

Of course, this is just Yuan Xi's personal opinion.

Liu Feng and Cao Ang were struck by lightning and froze in place, unable to say a word.

"No, that's not right! It's only been a few days? Even if the Shang army is a simple march, it is impossible to capture Xuzhou so quickly, you are biased towards me!! ”

Suddenly, Cao Ang reacted and yelled excitedly.

"Humph!"

In response to him was Yuan Xi's disdainful sneer.

"You speak, you talk quickly, you're lying to us, aren't you?!"

Cao Ang was in a hurry, and wanted to rush over and grab Yuan Xi to ask what was going on, but as soon as Lu Bu waved his hand, two guards immediately stopped Cao Ang.

Although with Cao Ang's combat strength, he could knock down these two heavily armed guards even with his bare hands, but he didn't dare to do it, this guard represented Lu Bu's meaning, if he made trouble again, he wouldn't give Lu Bu face, and Cao Ang couldn't bear the consequences at all.

"Mr. Yangyi, please!"

"Wen Hou please!"

The two exchanged politeness, and finally entered the big tent simultaneously.

After the guest of honor was seated, Lu Bu did not speak, and Yang Yi did not speak, and there was some silence for a while.

After a while, Yang Yi took the lead in breaking the silence: "Don't hide it from Wen Hou, although what Yuan Xi said just now was slightly exaggerated, it was not fabricated for no reason, Yuan Shao had indeed abandoned his weapons and surrendered, and Cao and Liu were also far away." ”

Saying that, Yang Yi sighed: "Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the dawn of the world has been tormented, and I hope that Wen Hou will plan for the people of the world and let the world have fewer soldiers." ”

Lu Bu waved his hand impatiently: "Mr. Yang, this general is the god of war, and war is enjoyment for me, so let's not talk about these vain." ”

After a pause, Lu Bu said: "If you want Ben to surrender, you can!" But I have a few conditions, as long as you can agree, I will agree immediately, and in the future, I will let the business drive me. ”

Yang Yi was shocked when she heard this, subconsciously sat up straight, and waved her hand: "Wen Hou said it's okay!" ”

"First, all the generals of the annexed states are free to come and go, and if anyone is unwilling to be loyal to the Shangji, the Shangjun must allow them to leave freely, without any hindrance. Generals who take refuge in the merchant army should be treated equally with your military headquarters, and must not be treated differently in terms of military salary, treatment, promotion, and so on. Of course, this does not include the general, and I guess you will not allow the general to 'return to the mountains and forests', right? ”

Lu Bu smiled a little self-deprecatingly and asked rhetorically.

"Of course, there is no problem with this, our army has a complete promotion system, meritorious service must be rewarded and punished, this is one of the core principles of our army."

"Second, after the surrender, the non-commissioned officers of the army can be unified and reorganized by your army, but the treatment of the reorganized non-commissioned soldiers will be the same as that of your army. If there are soldiers who are willing to disarm and return to the field, your army must not stop them! ”

"Yes, but our army has strict requirements for non-commissioned soldiers, and a unified test will be carried out before the reorganization, and the weak will be cut and the strong will be retained, and please understand Wen Hou. Of course, all non-commissioned officers who have been laid off will have a severance pay that meets the standards. ”
