Chapter 384 Lu Bu's Mission (Big Chapter)
It was not Cao Cao who first received the order from the court, but Dong Zhuo, the general who protected the Xiongnu. The emperor ordered him to send someone to talk with Dongyi, and ordered Dongyi to agree with the Han to build a port in Dongyi. Dong Zhuo was a little puzzled when conducting overseas business and trade activities. He knew about Dongbai, but he had a population of only [-], and he heard that the number of soldiers was less than [-]. For such a small country, how could he do it himself?
After looking carefully, I found out that the emperor didn't want him to conquer, but asked him to send people to negotiate with Dongyi. The state of benevolence and righteousness in the Han Dynasty cannot be learned from unknown people, so it is impossible to carry out military conquests against Dongyi, who has no hostility. This small country's use of force will also lose the face of a big man. Therefore, the emperor hopes that Dong Zhuo can talk to Dong Yan and handle this matter well.

Dong Zhuo woke up and laughed, no wonder the emperor sent the edict to him, it turned out that it was because of his unparalleled eloquence, Lu Fengxian!
He immediately called Lu Bu over.

When Lv Bu rushed to the camp, Dong Zhuo handed him the edict of the emperor directly. Lv Bu read it several times in amazement, before he asked, "Your Majesty wants us to crusade against Dongyi?"

"A mere small country, what about crusades? They want to send envoys to negotiate."

Lv Bu stood up impatiently, and said, "Why bother, I can destroy the country with only a few hundred relatives, and give the head of the king to the king."

"Heh, if you want to use force to take it down, what else would I do to you?" Dong Zhuo said with some disdain.

Lu Bu said helplessly: "Then I will go there. If there is no peace in the negotiation, then the country will be destroyed and its king will be removed."

"shut up!"

"Do not use force!"

"I promise."

"Also, stay away from Zhang Taiwei in the future. The Taiwei is a good person. That's it. Forget it. How many people do you need?" Dong Zhuo said halfway, but he couldn't continue, so he could only continue to ask. .

"You need two attendants, six horses, one pair of armor, one yellow crossbow, one strong bow, three spears, and four short halberds. In addition, you need two hundred crossbow arrows and three hundred bow arrows."

"You bastard!!" Dong Zhuo jumped into a rage, his face flushed, pointed at Lu Bu, and cursed: "Are you going to be an envoy, or are you going to destroy the country and kill the chieftains!!"

Lu Bu pouted, but said nothing.

"I'll give you three followers, you go now, don't destroy the country, don't kill people, understand?" Dong Zhuo repeatedly asked.

"Then what if they want to kill me?"

"They are only a few hundred soldiers, and they want to kill the envoy of the big man only when they are in a daze!! Get out!!!"

Seeing Lu Bu escape from the camp, Dong Zhuo shook his head helplessly. He still admired the eloquent Lu Fengxian in the past. Now this one, who has followed Taiwei Zhang for a long time, has been contaminated with too many bad habits of Taiwei Zhang. He trained Lu Bu as his successor, and he knew in his heart that a general must be brave and good at fighting, but he should not have too much military merit.

Looking at the previous Duan Jiong, one can know that a general who has made too much contribution will be feared by the temple. His ambition is to enter the temple one day and sit on the position of Taiwei. To realize his ambition, it is natural I need generals like Lu Bu and Tai Shici to support me. In the future, I still need to train Lu Bu well, and I can also use him as a help when I enter the temple in the future.

Lu Bu called three followers, who didn't wear armor or yellow crossbows, but just brought a saber, and set off. He first rushed to Sanhan, and then went to Dongyi. For a long time, they brought a few more horses and enough horse food, so they didn't cherish the horsepower, so they rushed at full speed, stopping at the surrounding post stations all the way, and rushed towards Bianjun at top speed.

Bianjun was formerly Bianhan, which had long been a county under the Han Youzhou, but was later intervened by Cao Cao. In essence, they still obeyed Cao Cao’s decree. At the beginning of the 17th year of Jianning, the temple officially assigned Bianjun to Han Under the name of Prime Minister, and changed Han Xiang to San Han Xiang, this also caused conflicts between the governor of Youzhou and San Han Xiang.

After Cao Cao received the imperial edict from the temple, he was very happy in his heart. The development of Yangzhou allowed him to see the potential needed for the development of the Sanhan area. Moreover, before the naturalization of Sanhan, Bianhan had a relationship with the overseas barbarians. Back and forth, there were economic exchanges and military exchanges. They even invited soldiers from the Yi country to fight against Chen Han.

Cao Cao suddenly understood in his heart that there are still areas where big men can set foot in the eastern overseas. If he can open this business road, the credit will definitely not be small. Maybe he can leave here, go to the temple, and enter the core of the government. , He thought so in his heart, when he heard that Dong Zhuo sent Lv Bu, the captain of the Dangkou school, to Dongyi, he immediately sent someone to greet him.

When Lü Bu arrived at Ma Han, the troops sent by Cao Cao came out to greet him and invited Lv Bu to the palace. Lv Bu wanted to refuse Cao Cao's kind invitation, but he was also a courtier of the Han Dynasty, and Cao Cao's official position was much higher than his own. What's more, his father is still the Jiuqing of the court, and he may become one of the next three princes. Lu Bu didn't want to offend this person, so he went to the palace of Sanhan with these people.

When Lu Bu arrived at Wangcheng, he saw a different situation from before. A tall and majestic county town was built here, with gentle roads everywhere. The book was being recited seriously, and Lu Bu's eyes widened. It's only been a few years, why has this place changed so much?
Now, this place is even more Luoyang than Luoyang, you can't hear such smooth words in Luoyang!
Seeing the shock on Lu Bu's face, the officials who followed him said proudly: "It's all thanks to the merits of Cao Xiangguo, this place is prosperous!" Lu Bu nodded. He really felt deeply about this point. When I came here, it was still like a country pavilion, but now I can't see the slightest appearance of the past.

When they came to the gate of the palace, elite soldiers who were different from the past were standing on both sides to greet them. Seeing them standing upright with solemn expressions, they couldn't help shouting: "Did Cao Gong also know about military affairs?"

"Hahaha~~~" A hearty laugh came.

A short black and thin man came over with a smile and said: "Cao is not talented. He was good at studying the art of war since he was a child. General Lu laughed at him."

Lu Bu also laughed when he heard the words, shook his head, and said, "Mr. Cao's talent makes me ashamed!"

"General, don't do this. Go!" Cao Cao was very friendly, took Lu Bu's hand, and walked towards the palace. Lu Bu did not refuse his kindness, chatted with him all the way, walked towards the palace, entered After entering the palace, all the ministers of the Three Hans were sitting on both sides, talking for some reason. When they saw Cao Cao coming in, they immediately became solemn and bowed respectfully.

Even King Chen, who was sitting on the upper seat, stood up and bowed.

Cao Cao smiled and said: "There are distinguished guests here today, you don't have to do this, please get up!"

Hearing this, the ministers stood up and became more curious. When they saw the majestic man beside Cao Cao, many of them yelled and jumped up, their eyes full of horror. Even King Chen is like this. The old King Chen has long passed away. This is the son of the past, and he also saw Lu Bu bloodbathed the palace. Now, seeing this murderous man appearing in the palace again, they are frightened. It's chicken and dog jumping!

"Gentlemen, don't panic"

Cao Cao said with a smile, Lu Bu always felt that Cao Cao's laughter was a bit chilling, he shook his head and said: "You are all good people, loyal to the big man, General Lu Bu came here, naturally It's not for killing thieves." He looked at these ministers and the superior Chen Wang with some persecution, and these people all lowered their heads, not daring to look at him.

Cao Cao then took Lu Bula into the guest table, asked him about Lu Bu's trip, and gave him a lot of suggestions. Very happy, talking about military affairs again, Cao Cao deliberately asked about the garrison in Youzhou, Lu Bu also answered hastily, but still made the surrounding ministers tremble and did not dare to look up.

In the royal city, Lu Bu stayed for two days before leaving, and Cao Cao sent him off personally.

After leaving Wangcheng, he rushed towards Bianjun. Tian Feng, the prefect of Bianjun, was waiting for him. Tian Feng was different from Cao Cao. He was a serious person, and he acted swiftly, so he was given two guides. Without saying too much, he sent him away. Lu Bu was not annoyed. Under the guidance of the guide, he walked towards Dongmai and stepped into the territory of Dongmai. Lu Bu saw a very different scene from Sanhan .

The people here don't do farming or animal husbandry. The great fertile land is left barren like this. They mainly use fishing and hunting. When they see strangers, they are not afraid. Instead, they go forward enthusiastically and want to be with them To communicate, the guides also chatted with them casually, saying that this is the envoy of the big man, and he wants to pay a visit to Lord Dongyi.

Hearing this, those common people spontaneously attracted the way for Lu Bu and the others, and they looked very excited. Lu Bu was also a little confused about the reason, and looked at the guide with some doubts, but the guide didn't understand either. There were more and more pedestrians, they talked excitedly, kept looking at Lu Bu and the others, and some even sang and danced.

Lu Bu was even more puzzled, so he walked all the way to the royal city of Dongyi.

In fact, it's not a city, it's just a larger village, and they don't know how to build walls.

There is a person standing at the gate of the royal city, and there are hundreds of soldiers standing at the gate?

Well, they are indeed soldiers. After all, they all hold bows in their hands, and they are all middle-aged men. The leader came up with a smile, and said in a skillful and elegant way: "The minister of Dongyi pays his respects to the king!"

"This is." Lu Bu didn't slow down for a while, and looked at him with some puzzlement. The followers around him also looked confused. Lu Bu still cupped his hands, bowed, and said, "See you, Mr. Dongyi."

"What you said is wrong. Your Majesty is in front of you. How dare I call you the king? Just call me the prefect!"

"Um???"

"Get up!!!" King Dongyan waved his hand excitedly, and saw hundreds of soldiers pouring out from all over the village. Lu Bu was startled, and subconsciously put his hand on his saber, and those soldiers raised their flags , Waving it vigorously, I saw that on those flags, there was a big "Han" character written on them. King Dongyan was a little moved when he saw this scene.

Wiping away his tears, he said: "We, the citizens, want to become the people of the Han Dynasty, but the Han Dynasty has never sent a single soldier, nor sent an envoy. Today, I finally waited for you to tell me, when will I go to see you?" His Majesty?"

"Um????"

"It's my fault, how can you discuss matters outside the city? Please!" King Dongyi pulled Lu Bu and walked towards the city. At this moment, Lu Bu was still in a daze. What happened, he didn't come to discuss the construction of a port. matter?Didn't even bring the yellow crossbow, why is the country still destroyed? ?Before Lu Bu figured it out, he was dragged to the palace? ? ?

Looking at this humble house, Lu Bu really didn't know what to say.

"Sir, what do you want to drink, Chinese tea, Chinese wine, we have them here. Also, look at this seat, which is similar to a big man. We bought it from Sanhan. We met before. A general, changed to Tai Shici, unfortunately, he marched too fast, we have been chasing him, wanting to talk to him, the hearts of the people here are Han, but we can't catch up"

"Fortunately, the king is here." King Dongyi said a little excitedly while holding Lu Bu's hand tightly.

"Um????"

Lu Bu pulled out his hand, rubbed his forehead, thought for a moment, and said, "You have misunderstood me. I am here to discuss the construction of a port. The Great Han wants to build a port along the coast of Dongyan for sea trade."

"It's easy to say, when will it be built? I will mobilize the people and go to build it. May you tell me about its specifications? Oh, by the way, I don't know your name or what position you hold?"

"Why don't you speak? But I'm not proficient in Chinese? You don't know?"

"No, I have been studying for several years, and I can already talk to merchants. Could it be that Jun has a mouth disease? Can't talk too much?"

Lu Bu really wanted to strangle this man to death with one hand, but the only reason left in his heart made him restrain his thoughts.

He took a deep breath, and said helplessly, "Your Majesty, I don't have a mouth disease. Don't ask for words, listen to me!"

"Yeah!" King Dongyan nodded and looked at Lu Bu seriously.

"The big man has not yet naturalized Dongyi, even if you claim to be a minister of the big man, it is not a count. In addition, I am here this time only to get you to agree to the construction of the port. As for the construction of the port, it is up to the three Han Zhimin will do it. Do you understand, Mr. Dongmai?"

Lord Dongyan nodded thoughtfully, frowned, and said, "Just to build a port?"

"Um"

"But I waited for the Han Banner!"

"That's useless!!"

"The people under my rule can still sing the Pegasus song?"

"also useless"

"In this case, I don't agree with the matter of the port!" Jun Dong said suddenly, Lv Bu was furious, stood up abruptly, and stared at Jun Dong, who was not afraid, frowned, and said, "As long as the big man can agree I will agree to the people of Dongyi entering the Han Dynasty!"

"Mr. Dongyi, I can't make the decision on this matter. If you don't agree, you will be an enemy of my big man!"

"Oh?" Mr. Donghui was taken aback for a moment. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something, stood up excitedly, and said, "I'm making an enemy of the big man! The big man wants to attack me?"

Lu Bu took a deep breath, he guessed what this guy was thinking now, if he was right, this guy is waiting for the big man to come to conquer, and then the whole country will vote for it, Lu Bu thought for a moment, and said: " Forget it, I will play the matter in the temple on my own. My name is Lu Bu, and I am named Fengxian, and I am the school captain of Dong Zhuo in Youzhou."

"Lieutenant Lu, you are the one who captured King Chen in the past?? I have heard about the king's name for a long time, and I saw you today." Mr. Dongyan said, his eyes suddenly showed some strange colors.

"Don't think about it, I won't catch you back!!!"
