The Conquest of the Three Kingdoms

In the apse of Chu Palace, a conversation continued.

Nie Zefeng continued to ask: "What do you do at Yuan Shao's office in Jizhou? How can you have such self-cultivation?"

Yuan Mai replied honestly: "Your Majesty, the father of this servant is the current Yuan Shao, and I am Yuan Shao's youngest son, Yuan Mai..."

Nie Zefeng was startled, and remained silent for a long time, because he didn't expect that the young man in front of him was actually Yuan Shao's own son. He originally wanted to reward this young man, but rewarding this young man now means admitting his mistake.

Nie Zefeng didn't answer, which caused the whole hall to murmur.

Yuan Mai stood and waited neither humble nor overbearing, waiting for whether the king of Chu, Nie Zefeng, would be punished or rewarded.

Nie Zefeng finally spoke, but as a king, Nie Zefeng had to give an answer, a correct answer, because he wanted to confirm a voice, and that was the voice that the ruler wanted to confirm. Nie Zefeng said: "So you are the famous Yuan Buy, Yuan Shao's youngest son. It's really rare that a young man from a noble family doesn't have the lustful and extravagant habits of a nobleman's son."

Yuan Mai became more humble when he heard Nie Zefeng's praise, and then hurriedly replied: "This is how slaves are originally. Before she was alive, my mother always taught slaves to have the fundamentals of being a human being."

Nie Zefeng looked at the guard, and hurriedly ordered: "Take him down to wash and bathe, change his clothes, let him feed the horse and drive with me, and be a guard by my side in the future. After a while, follow me to Guandu City to supervise the battle." !"

After hearing the appreciation from King Nie Zefeng of Chu, Yuan Mai was stunned, because he did not expect that a king could tolerate the son of an enemy, appreciate him, and began to trust and reuse him.

Of course, it wasn't just Yuan Mai who was astonished, but also those women, who were whispering to each other in astonishment at this time.

At this moment of astonishment, people from the palace rushed in, weeping, and knelt down on the ground to report: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good! Mrs. Zifeng has passed out again! The imperial doctor said..."

After Nie Zefeng moved to Xuchang, he brought Miss Zifeng into his mansion. Miss Zifeng's life is very turbulent. In order to repay this girl for saving her life, Nie Zefeng gave this woman everything he could. Of course, he is the king of the world. The women of Zifeng were naturally under various schemes, and Nie Zefeng had been paying attention to the battle ahead. Due to a moment of negligence, Miss Zifeng was schemed by other women and contracted a strange disease, a disease covered with red sores all over her body.

Seeing that the maid under the seat didn't say a word, and then saw that he was just staring at her, she ordered: "Come forward."

The maid whispered a message in Nie Zefeng's ear.

Everyone's eyes turned. Nie Zefeng listened, his face changed from the rosy one just now to an angry one, and he said in a daze, "What?"

However, Nie Zefeng immediately controlled his emotions, then waved his hand and said, "Back off!"

Nie Zefeng turned around and left, walking towards the main hall in the backyard.

Seeing this scene, the guard simply ordered: "Okay... let's go here today... Let's go! You... what about you, come with me!"

In this way, the guard led Yuan Mai to the changing room at the back.

Yuan Mai didn't know what to say, because he didn't know what could make the king, who was talking and laughing in front of thousands of troops on the battlefield, suffer such a serious disease because of one incident, Yuan Mai immediately There was an incredible look.

And the eyes of the entire Xuchang City, Guandu City, and even Jingzhou and Huainan regions are now focused on the Hebei battlefield ahead.

On the battlefield in the direction of Yecheng, Jizhou.

In the vast desert, in the bushes of thousands of jungles, on the rugged and difficult rocks.

General Lu Bu led the generals of the Chu army to inspect the terrain on the edge of the desert.

A Chu army reconnaissance cavalry returned and passed by.

A prisoner of Yuan Shao had his hands tied behind his back on the horse of a soldier riding among them.

General Lu Bu looked at the captives and motioned to the leading lieutenant, "Wait!"

After hearing General Lu Bu's order, the captain ordered the scouts behind him to stop.

General Lu Bu asked the leading lieutenant, "Where did you catch this?"

The captain of the reconnaissance cavalry saw that Lu Bu wanted to ask himself a question, and replied: "I was ordered to reconnaissance outside, and I encountered Yuan Shao's small army of cavalry on the way. This one was shot and killed by me on the horse, and I caught it with my own hands. .”

After listening to the report, General Lu Bu hurriedly ordered: "Untie him!"

The lieutenant commanded the scouts to dismount and help the prisoner, and then directly pulled out the long sword in his waist and cut the rope behind the prisoner, so that the cavalry loosened the rope for the prisoner.

General Lu Bu took the water bag, took a quick sip, and asked, "Which part do you belong to?"

In response to the question from the God of War Lu Bu, the prisoner turned his face arrogantly, and he couldn't even bear to look at this middle-aged general with golden hair and a golden crown.

The cavalry lieutenant had already been irritated by the arrogance of the prisoner of war. He raised his foot and kicked the arrogant prisoner's ass, shouting: "General Lu Bu is asking you something, be honest!"

General Lu Bu hurriedly dissuaded the cavalry captain and said, "Don't do this, give him water!"

General Zhang Bao who was standing next to him took off a water bag casually and handed the water bag to the cavalry captain. The captain threw the water bag to the prisoner, and he started to gobble it up for a while, drinking all the water in the bag dry.

After the prisoner finished drinking the water, he changed his arrogant view just now, and then looked at General Lu Bu and asked, "Are you General Lu Bu? The commander of the Chu army?"

General Lu Bu, seeing the prisoner who had changed his attitude, looked forward and replied, "Yes, then you are..."

The prisoner replied: "I am General Yuan Shao's personal soldier, the general's personal guard."

General Lu Bu was keenly aware of Yuan Shao's main force, but now he pretended to be normal and replied, "Oh? Then why were you sent here to scout?"

The prisoner explained: "General Yuan Shao has a habit of only trusting the reports of his own soldiers, so I was temporarily sent to reconnaissance."

General Lu Bu didn't have anything to hide at this time, but asked directly: "So you, General Yuan Shao, are on the opposite side of me?"

The prisoner laughed, and then said brazenly: "You are General Lu Bu, I advise you honestly, give up your attack! Your attack is futile! Your cavalry cannot cross the Ye River ahead. It is possible to defeat our Jizhou cavalry, which is fighting for the hegemony in the world, this is the gift of Jizhou heroes from heaven!"

General Lu Bu asked in surprise, "How do you know we're going to attack from here?"

After the prisoner heard this sentence, he was even more proud: "You forgot that our General Yuan Shao is the supreme overlord of Jizhou and the number one prince in the world? Give up your attack! I am doing it for your own good. If you don't believe me , then just wait and see, our General Yuan Shao is personally leading my Jizhou's most elite division and waiting for the general there! Go back, don't wait until the corpse is in the yellow sand, there is no place to die!"

The more excited the captive soldiers were, they started laughing out loud as they talked.

General Lu Bu waved his hand, then twitched the corner of his mouth, and replied: "Thank you for the reminder, take him away!" The cavalry captain waved his hand, and ordered several scouts to work together to take the nagging prisoner into custody. gone.

General Lu Bu grimaced and bit out a few words: "General Yuan Shao... is right in front of you!"

The generals Zang Ba, Zhang Bao, Zhou Cang and others behind them all looked at each other and whispered.

Lu Bu led all the generals back to his own village.

Night, without knowing it, has come, covering all the life forms under the entire sky.

General Lu Bu commanded the big tent.

At night, the entire Chinese army tent was enveloped, and the entire camp was enveloped, and the fire in the Chinese army tent was very lively.

All the generals waited with burning eyes, waiting for the arrival of General Lu Bu.

After a while, General Lu Bu walked in from the outside, covered in the summer chill, stretched out his hand to the pot of fire, and looked at the generals.

General Lu Bu said excitedly: "I didn't expect that the weather in the north is still so cold in summer!

Zhang Bao, the Jingzhou general next to him, also sighed helplessly: "I used to hear that the north was bitterly cold in Jingzhou, but I didn't expect it to be so bitterly cold after summer."

However, Lu Bu quickly got to the point, and said excitedly: "Congratulations, generals. Based on the investigations and reports from all parties, we are facing General Yuan Shao's main force in Jizhou!"

After hearing this news, the eyes of all the generals became active.

General Lu Bu also said with a little pride: "Your Majesty asked me to attack in the wrong direction, but instead I collided with the main force of General Yuan Shao in Jizhou. It's not that enemies don't meet each other. I, General Lu Bu, met Yuan Shao on a narrow road. This is God's will!" Huang Zhong, one of the generals, couldn't help giggling.

All the generals couldn't help looking at the veteran.

Huang Zhong looked up at the generals around him, and began to jokingly say, "If General Chen Dao finds out, how would he feel?"

General Lu Bu said calmly: "There is nothing ridiculous. The battlefield changes rapidly and is full of accidents. Therefore, the military's business is to follow the enemy's intentions, join the enemy in the same direction, and kill the general from thousands of miles. This is a skill that can make things happen."

After Huang Zhong heard Lu Bu's words, he stopped talking, and all the generals were silent.

At the same time, General Lu Bu advised the generals, "You have also heard that Yuan Shao's Jizhou cavalry was arrogant, and you must know why a sergeant Yuan Shao dared to speak wild words to me, the commander of the Chu army?"

After finishing speaking, General Lu Bu went to the map, tapped the map on the ground and said: "There are only two things. One is that we think that our Chu army cannot cross the barrier of the river in Yecheng; the other is that they have already deployed elite troops there. Waiting for us with leisure!"

General Lu Bu's eyes patrolled the generals.

A real hand-to-hand contest is on this map.
