Chapter 54 Since there is no one to rely on, you can only rely on yourself!

Lu Bu is very bad now, since he came to this troubled world, he has never planned to be the lord himself, to participate in the battle for hegemony in the world, he just wants to take refuge in one person and live a comfortable life.

And the arrival of the system did not change his mind, but strengthened his determination to take refuge in others, and in this way, in addition to saving his life, he could also do something different for people in this war-torn era as much as possible.

However, with Liu Bei's letter back, all his hopes were shattered, he was originally most interested in Cao Cao, even though Cao Cao had many shortcomings, but now at this stage, he is indeed eager for talents.

As long as Cao Cao can accept him, he has not caused trouble, does not come out, and tries to stay in the family house, in the long run, Cao Cao will definitely be able to tolerate him, and although Cao Wei is generally short, it is enough for him to live to the end of his life, which is enough.

And even if Liu Bei, who is second best, is also a good choice, Shu Han's lifespan is also enough for him to die, and as long as Liu Bei can accept him, the momentum will inevitably be faster, and there is no need to be displaced.

However, now, everything is empty, as for the others, Lu Bu has not even considered it, and the others are either not successful, or weaker than him, or they are not the final candidates, even if it is Sun Ce, he dares to take refuge in Sun Ce, not to mention that at this time, he does not even have a fixed territory.

Lu Bu was in a trance for a while, and now no one can be relied on, and he is in such a troubled era, and now he has become enemies with Cao Cao and Liu Bei, the two sons of destiny, and he is the kind that never dies, even if he is hiding in Xuzhou, which is an acre and three points of land, he will inevitably face the infestation of others, so that he will not be at peace.

Chen Gong on the side looked at Lu Bu, who was a little depressed, his heart was full of heaviness, he was now very curious about this letter from Liu Bei, in his mind, the worst case would be that Liu Bei and Yuan Shu would unite and attack Xuzhou together.

However, even so, Lu Bu should not be like this according to reason, Yuan Shujun's combat power, he had learned it when he was with Cao Cao, it was okay to fight a tailwind battle, once it fell into danger, it would collapse the fastest.

Of course, there are elites in Yuan Shu's army, but the proportion is not much, and Liu Bei's army, after Chen Gong estimates, is no more than 30,000 at most, plus a few battles with Ji Ling in Huaiyin, it is only more than 20,000.

With Lu Bu's strength now, if he wants to defend it, he can completely defend it, even if he wants to defeat Liu Bei and Ji Ling, in Chen Gong's opinion, it is just something that can be done with a lot of effort.

Chen Gong looked at Lu Bu in confusion.

"Lord, I don't know what happened? It can be said that in the future, I will do my best to plan for the Lord! ”

Lu Bu listened to Chen Gong's voice, slowly came back to his senses, and immediately smiled bitterly.

"Gongtai, it's okay, it's just that I'm a little restless in my heart, this is Liu Bei's reply, take a look, I'll go back first, let me rest, if there is nothing important, don't bother me for the time being."

When I adjust, I will come to the public station, the affairs in the army, you can also watch more, you can discuss with Yuanlong in civil affairs, I feel the changes in Yuanlong, although we can't be sure, but we can't take the initiative to reject.

Let's do this first, in the next two days, Xuzhou will be handed over to the public station. ”

After Lu Bu finished speaking, he walked out in frustration, and Chen Gong's expression became more solemn, the hand holding Liu Bei's letter was a little tight, Chen Gong would not feel wrong, he knew that Lu Bu's heart was a little messy.

Chen Gong immediately picked up Liu Bei's reply, but after reading it, Chen Gong couldn't figure it out even more, Liu Bei was not ready to fight with them, but just asked Lu Bu to send his wife over, which was a good thing in Chen Gong's opinion.

At this moment, Liu Bei directly had no threat, they only needed to face Yuan Shu's army, as for Cao Cao, Chen Gong didn't think about it at all, not to mention the three Cao Ren in their hands, with Cao Cao's current strength, unless he didn't want to live in the future, and wanted to die with them, otherwise he could only recuperate.

Chen Gong was puzzled, but the more he couldn't figure it out, the more Chen Gong wanted to think about it, and he now wanted to know what was the reason for Lu Bu to be like this, after all, they had only defeated Cao Cao twice, and both were big wins.

Chen Gong sat on the side, thought for a while, still didn't have a clue, had to start thinking from the beginning, looking at this trend, if Chen Gong couldn't think of it, I'm afraid he wouldn't have the heart to deal with government affairs.

At this time, Lu Bu came to the courtyard where he used to read books, and this courtyard was decorated by the three Yan family in turn, which was a little more exquisite than before.

Lu Bu had no intention of observing, but sat in the pavilion and began to think about the future road, how to go, after all, in the future, it was up to him.

At this time, Lu Bu has also come to his senses, and now that the matter has come to this, he has no other choice but to rely on himself, and wants to survive to the end in this troubled world, Lu Bu knows, not to mention destroying Cao Cao and Liu Bei, his own strength must at least be able to resist Cao Cao and Liu Bei.

If they can't even stop them, then there is basically no need to think about the future, and it is only a matter of time before they are killed.

However, if you want to resist Cao Cao and Liu Bei, or even surpass Cao Cao and Liu Bei in strength, it is not enough to be a Xuzhou land in the first place, especially the Xuzhou he occupies now, which is not complete.

After a series of turmoil, as well as Cao Cao's massacre, Xuzhou is actually not as rich as it was during the Tao Qian period, although there is a foundation and it is easy to recover, but the premise is that it takes time.

And even if he occupies the entire Xuzhou, it is undoubtedly whimsical to fight against Cao Cao and Liu Bei only by relying on the land of Xuzhou, even if it is just Cao Cao, if he only relies on the land of Xuzhou, he will not be able to stop it.

If you want to increase your strength, you must expand your territory and increase your population, which is the basis for increasing your strength, but thinking of expanding your territory, Lu Bu has a headache again, where to expand?

Yanzhou? Don't make trouble, if he goes, Cao Cao will really play with him, and he will pull Yuan Shao to trouble him, after all, the current Yuan Shao can't lose Cao Cao, Yuan Shao is still counting on Cao Cao to block Yuan Shu here, don't delay Yuan Shao's unification of Hebei.

And then where else can you fight? Qingzhou? Now he is surrounded by enemies, and Cao Cao is even more desperate here, and then he goes to fight Gongsun Zhan's Qingzhou, which is the real enemy on all sides, and he can't play directly.

And the rest of the territory he can get, it seems that only Yuzhou and Huaibei occupied by Yuan Shu are left?

Thinking of this, Lu Bu suddenly made up his mind, since no one else around him could be provoked, then there was only Yuan Shu who had wronged him, who asked Yuan Shu to come to Xuzhou to beat him!
