Lu's relatives

Chapter 65
Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were young friends, and after they each dominated one side, they also maintained an alliance for quite a long time. This time, Lu Bu did not accept the goodwill of Yuan Shao's mortal enemy, Gongsun Zan, but chose to use Yanzhou, and only brought Zhang Liao and Qin Xu went to Cao Cao's site for a banquet, and it was really a big risk.

After Qin Xu and others returned to Lu Bu's camp, whether it was the generals who came to greet them or the soldiers who were training, they all whispered.

"The lord is back, it looks like he got a lot of money from Lao Cao?"

"That is, when did our lord suffer? Let alone Lao Cao, Yuan Shao still suffers?"

"That's, that's, my lord is now the shepherd of Qingzhou, and that's the official of the frontier! How dare Lao Cao?"

"But there are yellow scarves raging in Qingzhou..."

"Are you afraid of the yellow scarf? Is my lord afraid of the yellow scarf?"

"..."

Curiosity and the spirit of gossip are irrelevant to age and gender. Even in the late Han Dynasty 2000 years ago, they were well developed.Lu Bu was the leader of the army, and he was very powerful. No one dared to ask other than the two wives; Zhang Liao was resolute and quiet, and he was in a high position, so naturally he couldn't find out anything; only Qin Xu, although he was valued by Lu Bu However, he is only a follower of the army, adhering to the idea of ​​having many friends and many paths in future generations, Qin Xu usually gets along with everyone, but now he is the only one surrounded by a group of acquaintances who are burning with gossip. Qin Xu was devastated.

Qin Xu's performance at the banquet allowed Lu Bu to earn enough face in front of Cao Cao, and the complacent look on his face when he returned to the camp was beyond words, but it made the morale of the soldiers under his command slightly low due to being in a different place. This is something Qin Xu did not expect.

"Qin Xu, I heard that you are in the limelight today! Why are you running away? How else can I eat you?" Lu Lingqi grabbed Qin Xu who was trying to escape in front of the camp door, pouted with dissatisfaction Said.As soon as Lu Bu came back, he was dragged away by the two wives, Zhang Liao was busy arranging the guards, and Qin Xu was surrounded by a group of big men. Lu Lingqi, who was waiting anxiously, finally saw Qin Xu coming to her tent, and she was still secretly happy just now. Finally, I was able to learn about the situation at night from Qin Xu, but I didn't expect Qin Xu to turn around and run away when he saw him.

Qin Xu also groaned inwardly, "Mistake, misstep!"How can I forget that Cai Yan and Lu Lingqi live in the same camp when I am happy, and I finally got rid of the gossip party at the end of Han Dynasty, but it fell into the hands of Miss Lu.

"Miss, you haven't slept yet!" Qin Xu looked at Cai Yan, who was sitting in the tent looking at the scroll, with a smile on his face, and Lu Lingqi, who was full of dissatisfaction, and had nothing to say.

"..."

With Lu Lingqi next to him, Qin Xu still didn't get a chance to be alone with Cai Yan after all, so he ran back to his tent after talking nonsense.

There was nothing to say all night, but the rumors of "Lu Wenhou went to the meeting alone, and Master Qin scolded the two people" were raging in the barracks under the fuel of the gossip party. It became more and more outrageous, and everyone knew it overnight , so that Qin Xu, who got up the next day and rushed to Lu Bu's tent to discuss matters, received countless attentions and salutes along the way.

Cao Cao really kept his word, he said last night that he would visit Cai Yong, and he came to Lv Bu's barracks early in the morning to pay homage, but Lao Cao didn't have Lv Bu's courage. The guards thought that the army was coming to attack.

However, after learning that it was Cao Cao's return visit, looking at Cao Cao's posture made the soldiers of Lu Bu's army who heard the rumors of various versions last night more convinced of the "authenticity" of the rumors. His face became more and more serious.

Cao Cao only brought Xun Yu and Zhang Miao among the civil servants. Qin Xu didn't see Cheng Yu and Wei Que, probably because he was pissed off by Qin Xu's words last night. I don't know if Wei Que and Wei Bodao will be with them Like his poor little brother, he also coughed up blood and died, Qin Xu thought maliciously.

After meeting Lu Bu, Cao Cao went straight to the point and asked to take Cai's father and daughter to Chenliu.Lu Bu glanced at Qin Xu meaningfully, making Qin Xu break out in a cold sweat, and ordered someone to invite Cai Yong and Cai Yan out to meet Cao Cao.

Fortunately, the performance of Cai's father and daughter made Qin Xu "very comforted". Facing Cao Cao's kind invitation, Cai Yong didn't know what was in his mind. The sensational performance of "tears bursting" unexpectedly revealed that he did not intend to leave Lu Bujun, and declined Cao Cao's "good intentions" to invite them to Chenliu, which made Cao Cao, who was thinking of using Cai Yong's reputation to attract scholars, become very upset nice.Cai Yan even yelled at Uncle Cao one by one, so that Cao Cao, who was already coveting Cai Yan, could only write a big bitter word on his face.

However, Cao Cao is a well-recognized hero after all. Although he couldn't guess the thoughts of Cai Yong's father and daughter, his unswerving expression quickly disappeared. After "friendly" consultations between Lv Bu and Cao Cao, the route for Lv Bu's army to march along the Dahe River, cross Puyang, pass through Dongjun, and enter Linzi, the seat of Qingzhou, was finally formulated. , Do not attack each other, wipe out the Yellow Turbans, and assist the Han Dynasty together.Under the awe-inspiring righteousness, the guests and the host enjoyed themselves for a while, but it's hard to say how much truth there is in this full of laughter.

Finally, Cao Cao and his party were sent away in a strange and enthusiastic atmosphere. Lu Bujun did not stay outside Chenliu City, and set up camp that afternoon and marched towards Puyang.

Puyang City, near the big river, was attacked several times by the Heishan army and became the stronghold of Heishan Bairao. Not long after Cao Cao took over, Xiahouyuan was the guard, Zhang Chao, the younger brother of Chenliu prefect Zhang Miao, was the Sima, and Chen Gong was the commander. Don't drive, gather the refugees to appease the clan, in just a few months, it has restored some of the scene of the original commercial thoroughfare.

Looking at Puyang City, which was the root cause of Lu Bu's defeat in history, and Lu Wenhou, who was in high spirits by his side, Qin Xu also regained a bit of the satisfaction of "successful people" in his previous life, and finally no longer had to worry about Lu Bu's army's wrong strategy all day long. , causing Lu Bu to return to the old path of the fall of Baimen Tower in history.

"My lord, someone claims to be the younger brother of Zhang Miao, the prefect of Chenliu, to visit!" According to the agreement between Lv Bu and Cao Cao, Lv Bu's army was not allowed to enter the city. After Lu Bujun camped outside Puyang City, although they did not visit each other, but closed the city gates and set up more sentries, they did not take the initiative to provoke.Hearing the guard's message, Lu Bu, who was visiting Zhang Yang who was still in a coma, suddenly remembered Zhang Miao's instructions when he was in Chenliu.

"Please welcome Zhang Sima to the commander's account!" Lu Bu ordered.

"promise!"

As for the person recommended by Zhang Miao, although Zhang Miao didn't know the name of this person out of some scruples, Qin Xu more or less had a hunch that if it was really that person, then the strength of Lu Bujun would definitely be Take it to the next level.

At this time, there were only six of the eight strong generals in the history of the Lu Bu Army. Cao Xing is still serving as the commander of Hou Cheng's Buqu Shengong Battalion. Due to the return of Song Xian, this historical anti-Lu Iron Triangle has just been declared shattered. Hou Cheng also became more loyal because of Lu Bu's tolerance for Song Xian, which made Qin Xu, who had raised his vigilance against Hou Cheng because of Song Xian's matter, secretly heaved a sigh of relief.As for Zang Ba, who later shined brilliantly in Cao Cao's army and was posthumously named "Weihou", he is still missing at this time.If the person recommended by Zhang Miao was really the person Qin Xu had in mind, it would be an excellent deal of buy one get one free.

"Puyang Sima Zhang Chao, meet Wen Hou!" In Lu Bu's handsome tent, a tall middle-aged man dressed as a scribe, whose appearance was seven to eight points similar to Zhang Miao, immediately saw Lu Bu. Bow down to worship.

"Zhong Zhuo doesn't need to be too polite, please hurry up!" Lu Bu exchanged greetings with Zhang Chao, but his eyes stayed on the two dressed as servants behind Zhang Chao.

The person on Zhang Chao's left is about 40 years old. He has a handsome appearance, and his quiet and deep eyes seem to be able to see through people's hearts. Although he is dressed in a servant's attire, his whole body exudes a faint power. It is difficult for people to ignore his existence. , immediately made Lu Bu's eyes brighten.

And the person behind this person is slightly younger, about 20 years old, looks very similar to the former, with sharp eyes, but a calm and respectful face, giving people the feeling of a sharp sword that can be drawn at any time.

"Zhong Zhuo, who are the two strong men behind you?" Lu Bu guessed that the person recommended by Zhang Miao was most likely the one behind Zhang Chao, and asked with uncontrollable surprise in his tone.

After Zhang Chao saluted, he turned sideways, pointed to the two people behind him and said, "These two are good talents recommended by my elder brother to Marquis Wen. The leader is a meritorious service under Chao's former Guangling prefect. His surname is Tibetan and his name is Hongzi Ziyuan. , followed by the son of Zang Hong, Zang Ba!"

"Could it be that the Suanzao League was launched to challenge Dong Zhizanghong?" Before Lu Bu could react, Qin Xu's eyes lit up and he said in surprise.

Zhang Chao had never met Qin Xu before, so he didn't know that this immature young man dressed as a scholar dared to speak like this in front of Lu Bu. Didn't he hear that Lu Bu had a son?However, seeing that Lu Bu didn't have the slightest strange expression on Qin Xu's interruption, Zhang Chao secretly marveled at it, but he didn't dare to take it too seriously, he cupped his hands and said, "That's right, it's what Zi Yuan did."

"My lord, the Zang family's father and son are very talented, the tiger father and the tiger son, recommended by Zhang Taishou, will definitely become the lord's right-hand man in the future!" Qin Xu said emotionally.

Because of Qin Xu's excited appearance, the tent was surprisingly quiet.Lü Bu had long been used to Qin Xu's frequent startled behavior, but Zhang Chao and the Zang family were confused by Qin Xu's "presumptuousness" in front of Lv Bu.

When did Lu Bu become so talkative?Or does this young man have an unusual status in Lu Bu's heart?Zang's father and son nodded to each other secretly, and then gave Qin Xu a big smile.

"Wen Hou, these two people are extraordinary, as this...cough cough said, but their identities are somewhat..." Zhang Chao didn't know Qin Xu's identity, so he didn't dare to call him rashly, and coughed a few times to cover it up. But because of the friendship between Lu Bu and Zhang Miao, he still told the difficulties of the Zang family and his son.

Qin Xu immediately understood why Zhang Miao recommended Zang Hong and his son to Lu Bu even though he was serving in Cao Cao's army.When the feudal lords were begging for Dong Zhuo, he held the first righteousness of Tibetan Hong, gathered the heroes of the five counties in Suanzao Huimeng, issued a coercive edict to attack Dong Zhuo, and was elected as the leader of the alliance. After that, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao joined in one after another, but in order to strengthen the momentum, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao joined in. Cao Cao picked the peaches of Shouyi and the leader, that's all.But the discord among the coalition forces of the princes made Cang Hong very angry, and he was excluded and convicted. If his son Zang Ba hadn't rescued him, he might have lost his life. No wonder Cang Hong didn't have a good impression of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao. For the original opponent, Lu Bu, who later became the hero of Zhu Dong, has the heart to serve him.

"I, Lu Bu, have the help of all the lords, and I use the red rabbit and horse Fang Tian to draw halberds across the world. Don't be afraid of others. Bu can get Ziyuan Xuangao. It's really like a tiger with wings!" Beside the three of them, they laughed loudly.
