Chapter 550: Lu Bu's Ambition
After Cao Ang captured Pengcheng, he sent his soldiers into the city to repair.
At the same time, he also asked people to inform Huang Zhong and tell him not to worry, Pengcheng has been broken, and Xiapi is already in the bag, so let him fight slowly.
And from the area of Mount Tai, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao, who returned to Lanling with people, only saw Gao Shun.
When Cao Ang set off, he asked Gao Shun to stay in Lanling and wait for Lu Bu to come back.
When Lu Bu learned that Cao Ang had already made a move on Tao Qian, he began to think in his heart: "This Cao Ang has done it to Tao Qian, so won't I have another chance to get Xia Pi back?" ”
Thinking of this, Lu Bu showed a smile and said to Zhang Liao: "Wenyuan, you take Zang Ba and them, go to the young general, I will take the other horses and horses to Xiapi to see if I can help!" ”
When Zhang Liao heard this, he didn't think about it, and directly refused.
"Wen Hou, you are joking, these soldiers were originally allocated to you by the major general to let you clean up Changfeng, and now that Changfeng is dead, these soldiers naturally have to be returned to the major general!"
When Lu Bu heard this, he said with a displeased face: "Wen Yuan, if you talk like this, it doesn't make sense, I killed Chang Xuan, I didn't use merit and hard work, could it be that I can't continue to call these soldiers?" ”
"Can't!" Zhang Liao undoubtedly refuted Lu Bu.
Although Zhang Liao knew that if he provoked Lu Bu, then he would definitely not be able to beat Lu Bu.
But for the sake of Cao Jun and Cao Ang, Zhang Liao couldn't continue to talk about these soldiers under any circumstances and handed them over to Lu Bu to command.
And Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao's determined appearance, so he sneered and said: "Okay, Zhang Wenyuan, then Ben Hou will let you see if these soldiers are willing to go with you or with me!" ”
After saying this, Lu Bu took the lead and walked out of the camp.
Seeing this, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun hurriedly followed.
When he came to the outside of the camp, Lu Bu asked all the Cao soldiers to be gathered.
Then, Lu Bu began to ask: "Ladies and gentlemen, now that the young general has gone south, Ben Hou wants to take you south to Xiapi, are you willing to go with Ben Hou?" ”
After Lu Bu's words fell, the soldiers of the Cao army looked at each other one by one, not understanding what Lu Bu meant by these words.
Seeing this, Zhang Liao on the side added.
"Ladies and gentlemen, according to my understanding of the young general, he should be attacking Tao Qian's old nest Pengcheng now, this general wants to take you to Pengcheng to find the young general, I don't know if you are willing to go with me or with Wen Hou?"
Those soldiers of the Cao Army, after listening to Zhang Liao's words, made a choice without hesitation.
"We are naturally willing to follow General Zhang!"
"Follow General Zhang!"
After Cao Jun's soldiers made their choice, Zhang Liao showed a smile.
In fact, when Lu Bu proposed to let the soldiers choose by themselves just now, Zhang Liao smiled.
Just kidding, these soldiers of the Cao army are the foundation of the Cao family, except for the major general Cao Ang and the great Sima Cao Cao, the people they trust the most are the generals in the army.
And Lu Bu is just an outsider to them, and he doesn't know where the confidence comes from, and he wants to convince these soldiers.
After hearing the reactions of these soldiers, Lu Bu's face was a little unbearable.
Just as Lu Bu was about to have a seizure, Gao Shun on the side pulled Lu Bu in time and whispered: "Wenhou, calm down!" ”
Lu Bu was pulled for a moment, and then he held back the anger in his heart, glanced at Zhang Liao with an unkind face, snorted coldly, and then left.
After Zhang Liao repaired it, he took Zang Ba and others to Pengcheng.
And Lu Bu took Gao Shun to get out the soldiers of Changyi, and then recruited 10,000 people, and took them south to Xiapi.
Zang Ba thought that Lu Bu had received Cao Ang's order to do this at first, so he did not stop Lu Bu's behavior, and even allocated some grain and grass to Lu Bu.
But when Zang Ba and Zhang Liao talked about it, Zhang Liao said with a strange face: "The young general never said that Wen Hou can lead the troops alone, let alone let Wen Hou lead those soldiers!" ”
"What? Could it be that Wen Hou is lying to me? Zang Ba, who realized it later, only felt that his eyes were dark, if it wasn't for Sun Guan helping him on the side, he was afraid that he would faint directly.
After Zang Ba breathed a sigh of relief, he hurriedly said to Zhang Liao: "General, I was deceived by Lu Bu's guy, please save me!" ”
When Zhang Liao heard this, he frowned and said, "General Zang Ba doesn't have to worry, since it was Lu Bu who deceived you, then presumably the young general will not hold you responsible." ”
"What's more, you have already decided to follow the young general, that is your own people, and the young general has always been lenient with his own people!"
With the reassurance pill that Zhang Liao gave him, Zang Ba breathed a sigh of relief.
Afterwards, the group set off and went to Pengcheng to join Cao Ang.
On the other side, Huang Zhong, who was outside Xiapi City, also learned the news that Lu Bu arrived outside Xiapi City with 10,000 horses.
"Lu Bu? Where did this guy come from with so many people, could it be that the major general asked him to lead troops to support me? But I never received a message from the major general! ”
After Huang Zhong learned that Lu Bu had arrived, he frowned and muttered to himself.
Xu Huanglejin, the second general on the side, also didn't understand why Lu Bu suddenly came.
Just when a few people were strange, a soldier came to report: "Generals, Wen Hou has arrived outside the camp, please go out of the camp for a while!" ”
Huang Zhong and the three of them looked at each other, all of them a little surprised.
In order to find out what Lu Bu meant, the three of them also went out of the camp together to meet Lu Bu.
At this time, Lu Bu was talking to one of his scouts.
This scout was sent out by him a few days ago to inquire about Cao Ang's news.
Now, that scout has also brought back news of Cao Ang.
After Lu Bu learned that Cao Ang had broken through Pengcheng, he also had his own thoughts in his heart.
After Huang Zhong and the three appeared outside the camp, Lu Bu stepped forward with a smile, arched his hand at the three generals and said, "Three generals, it's been a long time. ”
Seeing Lu Bu being so polite, Huang Zhong and the others were a little uncomfortable for a while.
However, the other party was so polite, and they were embarrassed to keep a cold face.
So Huang Zhong arched his hand at Lu Bu and asked, "Wen Hou is here, and you have missed the distance, please atone for your sins, but I don't know why you are here, Wen Hou?" ”
Lu Bu smiled when he heard this: "I'm here to replace General Huang and attack Xiapi City!" (End of chapter)
