Cao Xuan muttered in his heart.

You've said so, my lord, what else can I say?

"But there is a commandment, and the last will do his best."

"Good!" Lu Bu happily patted Cao Xing on the shoulder. "Ben Hou knows that Cao Xing, you are loyal and courageous, and you will accept this great and glorious task."

Although the task has not yet been said, I will praise my subordinates a few words.

It is also good to make the other party's heart happy.

No money anyway.

Lu Bu said with a smile: "The Huns and Xianbei will invade our Han Dynasty in the south every autumn, plunder the money of our Han people, and kidnap our Han people as slaves. As a Han soldier, this is a shame for us. However, now that the country is declining and the heroes are fighting, I really can't take care of these thieves outside the official, otherwise I, Lu Bu, will definitely follow the example of the general and the champion Hou, send troops to crusade against the Huns, Xianbei, and seal the wolf. ”

When Cao Xuan heard this, he was so frightened that he almost trembled.

No way.

The lord won't let himself lead his troops to attack the Xiongnu, or Xianbei, right?

How many soldiers and horses are there in my headquarters?

3,000 soldiers and horses.

Just this point of soldiers and horses to attack the Xiongnu and Xianbei?

What's the difference between that and sending to death?

Lord. What did you think of me?

Huo Qu is sick?

If only I were that powerful.

I......

Can I still be a lieutenant?

Cao Xuan said with a slight tremble: "General, the last general is humble and can't bear this burden, so I implore the general to choose another good general!" ”

Hearing Cao Xing's refusal, Lu Bu immediately shouted with a black face: "Cao Xing, didn't you just say that you would do things for Ben Hou?" Now you want to regret it, but you don't think Benhou's knife is favorable? ”

Cao Xing was so frightened that he hurriedly clenched his fists and said: "General, it's not that the last general will resign, it's really that the last general is not good at what he does, and he can't follow the example of the champion Hou, and he rushes thousands of miles and goes deep into the desert to attack the Huns' lair." ”

Lu Bu said angrily: "Thousands of miles running? Into the desert? When do I want you to go deep into the desert? I just want you to lead your own soldiers and horses to act as horse thieves to attack the Xiongnu and Xianbei tribes. Where did you think of it? ”

"Ahh Cao Xuan said in surprise: "General, you just let the last general act as a horse thief to attack the Cypriot tribe!" ”

"Not so. You won't think that Ben Hou really wants you to lead the troops to attack the Huns' lair! Lu Bu glanced Cao Xing up and down. Even Benhou may not be able to do it. What's more, it's you. Don't think too highly of yourself. ”

Cao Xuan muttered in his heart.

What you said before was so serious, and you praised me again and again. Naturally, I thought you were going to entrust me with such a difficult task.

Who would have known you just asked me to pretend to be a horse thief.

But then again, it's not that easy to be a horse thief outside the plug.

And most importantly......

Cao Xuan asked suspiciously: "General, there is nothing to be a horse thief." But what is there to rob the small tribes outside the Seychelles? They can't eat enough to eat themselves, so they go south to rob us. ”

"Aren't cattle, sheep and horses worthless? Besides, they want it too. Well. As long as they are young and strong, whether they are men or women, as long as they are young and strong, they will be taken back captive. Lu Bu was very dissatisfied with the short-sightedness of his subordinates. Of course, this is also related to the current environment.

In ancient times, the common people had to serve as servants, and they often had to bring their own food to work.

Naturally, the imperial court was reluctant to send troops to rob the nomads outside the Saiwai, after all, it would cost a lot of food and military pay to send troops once.

But Lu Bu is different.

In order to revitalize the economy, he hired people to pay money.

And for the sake of the love of the people of the Han Dynasty, it is naturally difficult to let the hired Han people call to death.

In this way, it is not very cost-effective to hire Han Chinese.

Lu Bu hit the idea on the Xiongnu and Xianbei people.

They were taken captive, used as slaves, built bridges and roads, built large water conservancy projects, etc.

For them, Lu Bu was not so soft-hearted.

If you don't obey, you will be beaten.

You don't need to be particular about food and clothing, as long as you can live.

In fact, Lu Bu wanted to go to Fusang, or Tianzhu, or the European continent to arrest people at the beginning.

It's not that the strength is not enough to stretch the minions so long!

So for the time being, I had to first grieve the Huns and Xianbei.

Let them suffer a little.

Lu Bu promised that as long as they were sincerely obedient, they were willing to merge into the Great Han.

Lu Bu will definitely treat everyone equally, and he will not do such a thing that lacks virtue again.

I, Lu Bu, have never been racist!

Hearing that Lu Bu even wanted everyone, Cao Xing really couldn't figure it out. Why did the lord even do those ignorant and ignorant barbarians?

But now the lord has said that he is just attacking those small tribes of the Xiongnu and Xianbei, and there is no need to provoke the royal court of the Xiongnu.

There's not much danger in that.

With his own 3,000 cavalry, where will the small tribe be his opponent.

It is......

The wind is strong outside.

In order to catch a few cattle and sheep, and a few barbarians, it was very hard to come in the wind and go in the rain.

Ay.

Forget it, even if it is for the sake of the lord. and also to attack several tribes in a decent manner.

Cao Xing clenched his fists and said casually: "The last general will obey the order!" ”

Seeing that Cao Xuan didn't have much fighting spirit, Lu Bu pondered for a while and said, "Cao Xing, as long as you bring back the cattle and sheep from the captivity, the barbarians will be young and strong, and I will reward you with consistent money for each person." You divide the money equally with your men. ”

Cao Xing, who was only thinking about dealing with the lord just now, instantly seemed to be beaten with chicken blood, and said excitedly: "General, this is true!" ”

Lu Bu snorted and said, "When did you see that I Lu Fengxian broke my promise!" ”

Cao Xing hurriedly bowed and apologized. "The last general has no doubts. The general can rest assured that the last general will not disappoint the general's high hopes. ”

After saying that, Cao Xing's eyes rolled.

Start thinking about it.

If you catch a thousand barbarians, there will be a thousand, and ten thousand people will be ten thousand.

The colonies were scattered, and most of them had horses, so it was not easy to catch them, and it was very laborious.

If you ......

Seeing the greedy gaze in Cao Xing's eyes, his eyes were still rolling vigorously.

Later generations have seen those human beings who have done everything for money.

Lu Bu roughly guessed what Cao Xing was thinking.

He reprimanded and reminded: "I want the Huns, Xianbei and these young and strong." If you let Ben Hou know that you will also arrest the Han people and sell them. Ben Hou will not be spared. Decide and confiscate your property! ”

Hearing Lu Bu's stern expression, Cao Xing hurriedly said: "Don't worry, general, the last general will definitely not do anything worse than a pig and a dog." ”

"It's good to know!" Lu Bu was afraid that Cao Xing would get tired after working for a long time, and besides, he asked Cao Xing to act as a horse thief, and he also wanted to train with combat and train excellent cavalry.

"I will send new recruits to replace them regularly. If you can't do it well, or don't want to do it anymore, Benhou will send someone else to replace you. ”

Cao Xuan heard that the lord wanted to find someone else to replace him, so he hurriedly said, "No." The end will not be tired. No need to look for anyone else. The end will be fine. ”

With such a good deal, how can you find someone else.

Of course, I had to do it myself.

Lu Bu glanced at Cao Xing, who was now full of energy, and sighed in his heart.

Sure enough!

It has to be a turnip and a stick to keep his men motivated.

"It's not a glorious thing to be a horse thief, and it would damage Benhou's reputation to say it. Don't use the banner of Benhou in the future. Well, the banner of Yuan Shao or Gongsun Chan is very good. I believe that they will not object for the sake of the Han people. ”
