Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 416 Zhang Liao Gao Shun
When Lu Bu's head was brought up, Zhang Liao's eyes filled with tears.Just now, he saw Lu Bu nodding to him. Before he died, Lu Bu was still the man who looked down on the world.The purpose of scolding him before he died was to clear up the relationship and give Zhang Liao and others a way to survive.

The hero's end and the beauty's twilight.Lu Bu, a generation of God of War has passed away!
Lu Bu was dead, Cao Cao looked at the two loyal generals left behind by him, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.

"Are the two generals willing to join our army?"

Cao Cao knew that Gao Shun was the commander of the trapped camp, and Zhang Liao was a powerful general under Lu Bu. If he could recruit them, it would be very helpful to the growth of Cao Jun's strength.At least it can be seen this way, if Cao Jun is in the camp, he will not be afraid of Wu Shun's White Tiger Camp.

"Thank you, General, for your kindness. We only want to follow the lord underground!"

Gao Shun's loyalty to Lv Bu is pure, and since Lv Bu is dead, he doesn't want to vote for anyone else.

Seeing that Cao Cao was silent, Zhang Liao knew he was weighing the pros and cons.So he asked:

"Dare to ask Mr. Cao, do Gao Shun and I have only two choices: surrender or die?"

Lu Bu died because of Cao Cao, Zhang Liao did not want to submit to Cao Cao.If Cao Cao asked them to make a choice, Zhang Liao would rather die in the name of loyalty.

"General Zhang Liao, I, Cao Cao, don't like to force, but the general's bravery really moves my heart. If the general feels wronged, he can leave."

To recruit generals, Cao Cao also knew that he couldn't force it. Lu Bu was dead, and there was plenty of time to subdue his generals.

The most important thing right now is to reassure Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.Not to make some dangerous moves.

"Gao Shun is only willing to follow the lord underground, Cao Gong is kind, so he has no choice but to accept it."

Zhang Liao was still thinking about it, but Gao Shun had already expressed his intention.Because of Lu Bu, Gao Shun is what he is today, and he would rather be buried with Lu Bu.

"General Gao Shun, don't be impulsive!"

Zhang Liao listened to Gao Shun's begging for death, and quickly remonstrated in a low voice:

"There is hope in life!"

As a courtier, he should be loyal to him. Zhang Liao wanted to avenge Lu Bu, but he knew that impulsiveness would not solve the problem.

"The two generals will go down to rest first, and then reply to Cao after they have figured it out."

Seeing that Zhang Liao and Gao Shun could not be subdued on the spot, Cao Cao stopped wasting time.It is definitely inappropriate to let these two people go.House arrest is the best way.

In order to win Zhang Liao and Gao Shun's hearts, Cao Cao did not restrict their activities.As long as they are not within Cao Cao's control, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun's actions are free.

"Wen Yuan, is there a way to avenge the lord?"

In the big tent, Gao Shun asked Zhang Liao.Just now Zhang Liao said that only by living can there be hope, which touched Gao Shun.Let it ignite the hope of avenging Lu Bu.

"General Gao Shun, if you want to avenge your lord, there is only one way."

Zhang Liao said.

"any solution?"

Gao Shun asked curiously.

"Go to Yizhou and join the Wuling army. Master Mu Wu of Yizhou has always aimed at Liu Bei, and he is also secretly guarding against Cao Cao. He is an enemy and not a friend. If you want to deal with Cao Cao and Liu Bei, it is ideal to use the power of Yizhou."

Zhang Liao expressed his thoughts. Yizhou's desire for talents exceeds that of other princes, and sooner or later Yizhou will win against Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and even Yuan Shao. Is it the best choice for Gao Shun and Zhang Liao to join the Wuling Army?

"But now we are deeply trapped in Cao Ying, how can we get out?"

Going to Yizhou is indeed a good choice. Yizhou Mu Wushun is not a timid person.So Gao Shun also agreed with Zhang Liao's idea.

"Escape from Cao Ying, there will always be a chance."

Zhang Liao said solemnly.

……

Defeat Xiapi and kill Lu Bu.Xuzhou is basically owned by Cao Cao.Liu Bei's power is extremely weak in front of Cao Jun.

Under Cao Cao's instruction, Liu Bei led Xuzhou Mu, and the administrative office was moved from Xiapicheng to Pengcheng, and Pengcheng was renamed Xuzhou City.

Yuan Shao in the north put too much pressure on Cao Cao. After the Xuzhou matter was confirmed, Cao Cao returned to the army to deal with Yuan Shao.As for Xuzhou, Liu Bei can only be cheap.

If Yuan Shao knew that Cao Cao had occupied Xuzhou, he would definitely send his troops south to prevent Cao Cao from having time to digest Xuzhou.If Xuzhou Mu was Liu Bei, Yuan Shao might not act rashly.To send troops, at least one must be completely sure.

"Brother, Cao Cao's stupefaction is abominable, why did he move the administrative office to Pengcheng?"

After Cao Cao left, Zhang Fei finally vented his grievances.

Xiapi was captured by his elder brother Liu Bei, and Xuzhou should belong to Liu Bei.Liu Bei should have the final say on where the government is located.Cao Cao wanted to get in, Zhang Fei was very uncomfortable.

"Third brother, right now I am weak and weak, so I can only rely on it. After I have fully grasped Xuzhou, it is not up to me to decide how to act."

Fully controlling Xuzhou, Liu Bei is full of confidence.He understands the current situation, Cao Cao dare not annex Xuzhou at this stage.This gave him the opportunity for Liu Bei to develop his strength.

……

Yizhou, Zhengxi General's Mansion.

Wu Shun found Diao Chan and told him the news of Lu Bu's fall.

"My lord, can Xiu'er pay homage to Marquis Wen?"

Diao Chan was grateful for Lu Bu's kindness and wanted to pay homage to Lu Bu's soul.But he was also afraid that Wu Shun would feel uncomfortable, so he first asked for Wu Shun's opinion.If Wu Shun didn't agree, she would just give up.

"Xiu'er, although Lu Bu is not very good, he is sincere to you. It's good to pay homage to him, and his wish will be fulfilled."

The dead are the most important, Wu Shun will not care about the dead Lu Bu.It is also a good thing for Diao Chan to get rid of the pimples in her heart after worshiping.

"Thank you sir!"

Seeing that Wu Shun did not object, Diao Chan quickly expressed his thanks.The person Diao Chan lives in her heart has never been Lu Bu.But Lu Bu saved her after all, Diao Chan would feel bad if she didn't worship her.

Hebei, Yecheng.

After Yuan Shao learned that Cao Cao had defeated Lv Bu, he was very unhappy. While secretly cursing Lv Bu as a waste, he was also considering whether to send troops to attack Cao Cao.

"Everyone, Cao Cao defeated Xuzhou, and Lu Bu was beheaded by him. Now the only one who can threaten Cao Mengde is Jiangdong Sun Ce. How should our army respond?"

The growth of Cao Cao's strength is something that the Hebei Group does not want to see.Especially Yuan Shao, who grew up with Cao Cao, knows that if the difference in strength between Cao Cao's character is reduced, Cao Cao will not be afraid of himself.

"My lord, you can't let Cao Cao develop his strength with peace of mind. You should send troops to put appropriate pressure on Cao Cao."

Xu You came out and said.He also has a good relationship with Cao Cao, they both grew up together.We are very familiar with each other.

"What do you think?"

It is necessary to put pressure on Cao Cao, and Yuan Shao also tends to send troops.If Cao Cao is allowed to grow bigger, will it pose a threat to the Hebei Group?

"My lord, it's freezing cold today, so it's not suitable to use soldiers. According to my subordinates, I'm not weak enough to use soldiers next year."

Ju Shou's opinion is that winter is not suitable for large-scale combat, and it is cold and freezing in winter, and the logistical pressure is too great, so it is unwise to use troops.

"Then send troops next year to attack Henan and other places."

In the end, Yuan Shao set a general policy.Prepare to send troops to deal with Cao Cao next year when the weather gets warmer.There is always a battle between Henan and Hebei, which is an inevitable battle of fate.

Yuan Shao wanted to develop and grow, so he could only expand south.This will intensify the conflict with Cao Cao.Similarly, if Cao Cao wants to develop, he must first block the pressure from Hebei.

A battle between Cao and Yuan is inevitable.Although Wu Shun is eyeing the tiger in the southwest, it is the appropriate strategy to attack from a distance.

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun were brought back to Xudu by Cao Cao, treated with good wine and meat, and showed enough sincerity, waiting for the two to change their minds.You can join Cao Jun's camp.

It's a pity that Cao Cao overestimated his own charm, and underestimated Zhang Liao and Gao Shunti's determination to take revenge.

One dark and stormy night, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun disguised themselves and sneaked out of Xudu, heading towards Yizhou.

Knowing that Zhang Liao and Gao Shun had fled, Cao Cao immediately had someone chase him back, but the escaped man had already gone far.
