Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Zang Ba's men have naturally heard of Lu Bu's name.

Coupled with Lu Bu's animal-faced field armor and the Fang Tian painted halberd in his hand, his identity is indeed easy to identify.

So Zang Ba's subordinate hurriedly came in to report.

Zhang Liao on the side looked at Lu Bu with a helpless look on his face, and said, "Marquis Wen, we are here to invite someone. Will it cause unnecessary trouble if you talk like this?"

When Lu Bu heard this, he smiled faintly and said, "Are you in trouble? Then ask the Fang Tian Painted Halberd in my hand if I am afraid of trouble."

Zhang Liao knew that Lu Bu had always been arrogant, so he didn't say anything more.

At this time, Zang Ba also learned that Lu Bu was coming through a message from his subordinates.

"Lu Bu? Wasn't he defeated in Xiapi City? Why did he come to me?" Zang Ba was shocked. He originally planned to visit Cao Ang some time later.

As a result, Cao Ang didn't wait and made Lu Bu wait.

Zang Ba was running around anxiously in his tent.

When a deputy general on the side saw this, he quickly said to Zang Ba: "General, Lu Bu is still waiting at the gate of the camp. What should we do?"

"What else can we do? Invite him in!" Zang Ba said angrily.

But immediately Zang Ba waved his hand and said, "Wait a minute, I'll go there myself!"

Afterwards, Zang Ba led a group of lieutenants and walked outside the camp.

Although Zang Ba knew that Lu Bu had been defeated, he did not dare to neglect this ruthless man who was the most powerful in the world.

Zang Ba led a group of people and hurried to the outside of the camp. He cupped his hands to Lu Bu who was still sitting on the horse and said, "It turns out that Marquis Wen is here. It's disrespectful to welcome him from a distance, disrespectful and disrespectful!"

When Lu Bu saw Zang Ba coming, he got off his horse and handed Fang Tian's painted halberd to the lieutenant on the side.

After doing this, Lu Bu looked at Zang Ba and said, "Why, don't you invite us in to sit down?"

"Ah! Please!" Zang Ba heard this and hurriedly made a gesture of invitation.

Seeing this, Zhang Liao on the side raised his hands to Zang Ba in embarrassment and said, "General Zang Ba, please."

Afterwards, the group of people entered the camp.

In Zang Ba's Chinese army tent, only Zang Ba, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao were sitting, while the other lieutenants were standing aside.

At this time, Zang Ba also scolded Chen Deng's eighteen generations of ancestors in his heart.

"Damn Chen Yuanlong, didn't he say that Lu Bu had been defeated by Tao Qian? Look at Lu Bu's appearance. Doesn't he look like he was defeated?"

Just when Zang Ba was scolding Chen Deng in his heart, Zhang Liao on the side took the initiative to speak.

"General Zang Ba, I am Zhang Liao, the deputy vanguard under Major General Cao Ang."

After listening to Zhang Liao's self-introduction, Zang Ba was stunned for a while. After a while, he looked at Lu Bu and Zhang Liao and asked with a slight uncertainty.

"Is it possible that Marquis Wen is now following the Major General?"

As soon as these words came out, before Zhang Liao could explain, Lu Bu on the side said: "A man was born between heaven and earth, how can he live in a depressed state for a long time!"

"I, Lu Fengxian, am only temporarily committed to Cao's camp. When the major general helps me defeat Tao Qian, I will still be in Xuzhou and be my feudal official!" After hearing Lu Bu's words, Zhang Liao's expression changed. There's something not so good about it.

After all, Cao Ang is Zhang Liao's lord. When Lu Bu speaks like this, you clearly don't take Cao Ang seriously.

At this moment, Zang Ba was still in a state of confusion. He didn't know the purpose of Lu Bu and Zhang Liao's coming here, so he could only ask questions cautiously.

"I see. I just don't know why the two generals came to this remote place like mine."

When Lu Bu heard this, he glanced at Zhang Liao and said, "Wen Yuan, it's up to you to talk about this matter."

Lu Bu didn't want Zang Ba to misunderstand that he had taken refuge with Cao Ang, so he directly pushed the matter to Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao didn't say much about this, after all, this was his mission.

I saw Zhang Liao standing up, cupping his hands to the side and saying: "The general has been ordered by the major general to invite General Zang Ba and other leaders of the Taishan Army to Cao Ying in Lanling to accept the imperial decree!"

Cao Ang's original intention was to use the name of the emperor and the court to appease and win over the Taishan army.

Zhang Liao naturally understood what Cao Ang meant, so after he finished speaking, he looked at Zang Ba with burning eyes.

At this time, Zang Ba finally knew the purpose of Zhang Liao's visit.

But he wasn't sure if this was a trap.

If all the leaders of their Taishan Army are sent to Cao's camp, then once Cao Ang attacks them, the Taishan Army will be leaderless.

At that time, this Taishan Army will be the fat meat on the chopping board, allowing Cao Ang to cut it.

Seeing Zang Ba's hesitation, Zhang Liao continued to speak: "General Zang Ba is hesitant, but are you afraid that the young general will do something bad to you in the camp?"

"This..." Zang Ba's thoughts were revealed by Zhang Liao, and his face was full of embarrassment for a moment.

At this time, Zhang Liao continued to speak: "General Zang Ba, there is no need to worry. Our young general invites you. It is sincere and represents the imperial court's imperial edict to An'er and others."

"After all, you just call yourselves the Taishan Army, but the outside world calls you the Taishan Bandits!"

When Zang Ba heard this, his expression became a little ugly.

In fact, he had always known that the Taishan Army had a bad reputation outside. After all, they were not a regular army. Tao Qian did not give them military rations. They just looted by themselves, otherwise they would have starved to death.

Zhang Liao, on the other hand, did not pay attention to Zang Ba's expression and continued to speak: "Also, General Zang Ba, do you really think that the young general needs to use any tricks to deal with your Taishan Army?"

"To put it bluntly, in the eyes of our army, your Taishan Army is just a bunch of rabble. It's just that the Major General cares about the people and thinks that there are many people in your Taishan Army who were forced to become Taishan bandits."

"The young general doesn't want them to die in battle for no reason, so that's why he wants to give you a peace order."

Although Zhang Liao's words don't sound good, they are true.

Zang Ba also knew this, so he nodded solemnly and said: "Since the young general invited me to wait, how can I not go!"

"General Zhang, please rest assured. I will summon my brothers right away. In a few days, we will go to Lanling together to meet the Major General!"

Seeing that Zang Ba agreed, Zhang Liao no longer stayed here with Lu Bu, but went back to resume his life.

A few days later, Zang Ba and the leaders of the Taishan Army appeared at the gate of Cao's camp. (End of chapter)
