Chapter 338

The meaning in Yuan Shao's words seems to be that he is not willing to join forces with Lu Bu to attack Cao Cao.

Lu Bu smiled slightly, and asked him, "Dare to ask, at the beginning, do you think I am the greater threat to Hebei, or Cao Cao is the greater threat to Hebei?"

Stroking the beard on his chin, Yuan Shao smiled slightly: "I thought Fengxian just came to catch up with me, why did you talk about this?"

"It's not that I want to talk about it, but I didn't understand it at the beginning." Lu Bu replied: "What kind of person Cao Mengde is, I should know better than me at the beginning. Who has he let go in all these years? If it wasn't for my fate earlier, he would have killed me in the battle of Xiapi."

"I heard that not only did he not embarrass Fengxian in the end, but he even allowed Fengxian to attack the road." Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned forward and approached Lu Bu: "If it wasn't for taking Huainan from the road, how could Fengxian have a chance? All the way south to pacify Jiangdong Sun's family? If you hadn't pacified Jiangdong, Cao Mengde would be so afraid of you?"

"Suppressing Jiangdong, who else have I attacked?" Lu Bu first asked Yuan Shao back, and then asked: "Cao Mengde is holding His Majesty hostage, and all the heroes and officials from all walks of life are actually from Xudu. At first, I thought these officials meant His Majesty." , or did he mean it?"

When asked by Lu Bu, Yuan Shao's face became uneasy.

He frowned and asked Lu Bu, "What does Feng Xian mean by saying that?"

"Take the emperor to command the princes." Lu Bu said: "At the beginning, think about it, what was Cao Mengde's strength in his early years? Now why is he invincible in the southern and northern wars? Isn't it because the emperor of the Han Dynasty is in his hands? At the beginning of the year, he didn't take the first step. The emperor brought it to Hebei, but it was a big omission."

"What does this have to do with our crusade against Cao Mengde?" Yuan Shao asked Lu Bu with a puzzled expression.

"Of course it has something to do with it." Lu Bu replied: "At the beginning, when he was in Hebei, he had hundreds of thousands of soldiers under his command. Why couldn't he award heroes from all walks of life like Cao Mengde did? Don't buy it?"

Yuan Shao's complexion didn't look too good. He had indeed appointed many people as officials over the years.

Except for those who voted for him, the others really didn't take his appointment seriously.

In particular, Gongsundu, the prefect of Liaodong, turned down his official title. Although he hung the official seal sent by Cao Cao on the beam, he did not refuse the official position given by Xu Du.

In comparison, the official position given by Cao Cao is still easier to be recognized by the world.

"I should be very clear about my current strength at the beginning." Lu Bu continued: "I am sitting in Xuzhou and Yangzhou, and I have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses under my command. If Hebei invades Xuzhou by force, I dare not say anything else. The Hebei army was trapped in Xuzhou for ten or eight years."

Yuan Shao's face was gloomy and he remained silent.

However, Lu Bu asked him at this time: "Dare to ask, at the beginning, do you think Hebei has the capital to be trapped in Xuzhou for ten or eight years?"

"Are you provoking me?" Yuan Shao said to Lu Bu coldly with a gloomy face, "You should know what will happen if you provoke me."

"I didn't mean to provoke Benchu." Lu Bu said innocently, "I'm just reminding you that Xuzhou is not Hebei's enemy, but Xu Du is. Trapping the army in Xuzhou is just a big move for Xu Du. chance to get in."

PS: On July [-]st, the competition for the Gold List will start to explode, and there are still three days left.
