Can I get to the other side?

Lu Bu's home is not in Jiuyuan City.

He entered the city just to show off his power, and his final destination was Lujia Village outside Jiuyuan County, where he grew up.

Go back and meet your relatives and friends in the village!

Although Wuyuan County Sheriff's legs were a little sore from walking, he did not dare to have any objections to Lu Bu's order and could only lead the horse honestly in front.

The army marched around Jiuyuan County for several times with great momentum, and finally slowly came out from the southern city gate, attracting the attention of countless people along the way.

Many people were attracted by the movement of the three thousand cavalry. When they saw the dignified county guard holding a horse for someone, and when they learned that the mighty general on the horse was Lu Bu, they all exclaimed. Running around telling each other.

More and more people came after hearing the news and followed Lu Bu's driving, like stars holding the moon, surrounding him as he left the city and headed towards Lujia Village.

Lu Bu was very excited about this.

It's not okay to have no one to cheer for him when he returns home in glory. It's true that he put on such a grand display and specially asked the army to accompany him into the city, just to attract more people's attention and make the scene bigger.

After all, the bigger the noise, the more face you gain!

Before Lu Bu's troops arrived at Lujia Village, many meddlesome young people and idle men came to the village and started shouting loudly.

"Lu Fengxian is back! People in the village come out to greet him!"

"A big shot has come out of your Lujia Village!"

"General Lu Da has returned to his hometown! General Lu Da has returned to his hometown!"

A group of people shouted at the top of their lungs from the beginning of Lujia Village to the end of the village. They quickly attracted the attention of many villagers, who all poked their heads out of their homes to look.

When they saw a large group of people surrounding Lu Bu, who was riding a red horse, wearing mighty armor, and followed by a group of soldiers, they were all so shocked that their eyes almost popped out.

"Dear me, dear mother! Why are there so many soldiers here!"

"It's not like the Huns are coming, right?"

"Fart, these are obviously the Han army!"

"Lu Fengxian? Is it Lu Bu? Is the general riding on that tall horse Lu Bu?"

"That's right, it's Lu Bu! I recognize him!"

"Everyone, come out quickly. Fengxian has returned home in fine clothes."

"Lu Bu is back, Lu Bu is back!"

"Lu Wazi is ready for success now!"

"Look at this tall horse and this armor. Lu Wazi has become a high official!"

"So mighty!"

…

All the villagers in Lujia Village ran out of their homes, looking at Lu Bu on the horse with excited and envious eyes, and chattering non-stop.

This tall horse, this armor, and so many soldiers following behind, the pomp was simply grand, making them feel very proud.

Hearing the praises and comments from these most familiar villagers, Lu Bu felt so beautiful in his heart that his lips almost reached his ears.

He suppressed the excitement in his heart, cupped his hands and said: "Fellow folks, I..."

Before he finished speaking, an old voice full of surprise suddenly came from the crowd: "Lu Wazi is back? Is it really Lu Wazi?"

I saw the crowd parting.

An old man with white hair and beard, stooped figure and leaning on a stick walked out of the crowd tremblingly.

Seeing this man, Lu Bu quickly got off his horse.

This is the most senior elder in their Lujia Village, even he has to be called Third Uncle.

No matter how high an official he is, he still has to be recognized by his elders, and he certainly cannot sit on his horse and wait for the elders to come and see him.

"Third uncle, you are..."

Lu Bu stepped forward to greet him, wanting to say hello.

Unexpectedly, the village chief passed him directly, walked to Wuyuan County Sheriff, and said excitedly: "Lu Wazi, why don't you come back and have a look after all these years."

"Huh? Lu Wazi, why have you become shorter? I remember you weren't this short before?"

Sheriff Wuyuan's expression was a little stiff as he was being held by the village chief. He wanted to pull back but didn't dare, so he could only look at Lu Bu with embarrassment.

Seeing this, a villager hurriedly stepped forward, supported the village chief and said, "Village Chief, you have mistaken the wrong person. By the way, he is here."

As he said this, he helped the village chief to Lu Bu.

The village chief tried hard to open his eyes to identify, with a joyful smile on his face, and said excitedly: "Yes, yes, this is Lu Wazi!"

Hearing this nickname that had not been called for a long time, Lu Bu felt warm in his heart and asked with some sadness: "Third uncle, I haven't seen you for many years. How are you doing?"

"Good! Very good!"

The village chief was very happy. He held Lu Bu's hand and said, "Lu Wazi, you are back! The village heard that you have become a high official and become a celebrity around the emperor. They are all happy for you."

"What kind of official position do you have outside now?"

Lu Bu pretended to be humble and said: "It's nothing. I just became a captain and was made a duke by the emperor."

After he finished speaking, he was ready to greet the exclamations from the people around him, but unexpectedly all the villagers looked at each other in shock.

The village chief asked in confusion: "Lieutenant, what kind of official is that?"

For those idiots like them, they don't know the value of Taiwei and Dukes, because in their perception, the county magistrate is the most powerful official, and the county governor is no different from the local emperor.

The impact these two names brought to them was far less powerful than the shock brought by Lu Bu's majestic costume, tall horse, and the soldiers following behind him.

Lu Bu's expression was slightly stiff.

Upon hearing this, Wuyuan County Sheriff stepped forward and said to the village chief with a smile on his face: "Old man, the Taiwei is a powerful official, and all the soldiers and horses in the world must be mobilized by the Taiwei!"

"And the Duke, this title is higher than the Marquis and second only to the King!"

"Gong Wen is now the real emperor, and is above ten thousand people. In the future, he will definitely be appointed as a general. This official will be greater than that of Lu Buwei, the ancestor of your Lu family and the prime minister of Qin!"

"The true glorious ancestor!"

Wuyuan County Sheriff could see Lu Bu's desire to show off, so he took the initiative to explain it to him, and tried to make it as easy to understand as possible.

As expected, after hearing his explanation, all the villagers in Lujia Village opened their eyes wide and were extremely shocked.

"Mobilizing the soldiers and horses of the world? This is the official of heaven!"

"Fengxian's official position is higher than that of Lu's ancestors?"

"Oh, this is really honoring the ancestors, honoring the ancestors!"

"Fengxian is so promising! I suggest that the Lu family's genealogy be given a separate page for Fengxian!"

"That's not enough! Even to burn incense, you need a stick on your head!"

"It's so majestic."

Everyone exclaimed and looked at Lu Bu in awe, because such an official position was beyond their imagination.

"Who are you……"

The village chief looked at Wuyuan County Sheriff in confusion.

The governor of Wuyuan County smiled and said: "I am the governor of Wuyuan County. I specially accompany Mr. Wen when he returns home."

"County, Sheriff?"

The village chief was shocked when he heard this. He didn't know what kind of official the Taiwei was, but he knew that the Sheriff was the boss of Wuyuan County!

Such a high official could only accompany Lu Bu?

The village chief took Lu Bu's hand and said excitedly: "Let's go, let's go! Lu Wazi, let's go burn incense for our ancestors and your parents!"

"Bless me, the ancestors of the Lu family, for bringing out such a promising young man from our Lu family village!"

The Lu family in their Lu family village is not even a branch of the Lu family, but they actually produced a high-ranking official who is greater than the ancestor of the Lu family, Lu Buwei!

This is like smoke rising from the ancestral graves!

Lu Bu cast an approving look at Wuyuan County Sheriff, and then helped the village chief and went to burn incense with him.

"Let me come, I'll do it."

Seeing that Lu Bu was about to take action, the Lu villager who helped the village chief said quickly, and helped the village chief over.

Lu Bu looked at this man and felt that he looked familiar. After carefully identifying him, he finally recognized him and said in surprise: "You...are Li Hu?"

This was a good friend of his when he was a boy. At that time, they practiced martial arts, hunted together, and participated in the county army to kill the Huns. However, he later chose to leave Jiuyuan County and go out to explore, while the other party chose to stay in his hometown.

Lu Bu felt very happy when he suddenly saw his old friend, and then he had many words that he wanted to say in rapid succession, but he always felt like they were being blocked by something, whirling in his mind and unable to speak out.

When Lu Bu called out his name, Li Hu was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes couldn't help but light up, a look of joy appeared on his face, and he opened his mouth, but remained silent.

In the end, his attitude became respectful, and he said solemnly to Lu Bu: "If you go back to Duke Wen, you will be the common people."

Lu Bu seemed to shudder. Looking at his former friend with an awe-filled look in front of him, he felt that there seemed to be a sadly thick barrier between the two of them.

"Let's go."

Lu Bu didn't say anything more, sighed in his heart, and headed towards the ancestral grave surrounded by everyone.

…

The grassland outside the pass is vast and boundless.

However, it is winter now, and the heavy snow has just fallen, so as far as the eye can see, it is completely white, with no end as far as the eye can see.

The Huns were nomadic people. They centered on the royal court, with the inner tribes guarding the royal court, and the outer tribes guarding the inner tribes.

The tribes closer to the center were richer and more powerful, and the higher their status, the more abundant pasture resources and water resources they enjoyed.

Nowadays, the central area of ​​the prairie is surrounded by tribes of various sizes, which is completely different from the original distribution pattern.

The reason is that not long ago, Ma Chao led the Xiliang cavalry deep into the prairie and brutally massacred various tribes. This put the tribes on the grassland in danger and had to migrate in the winter to prevent any tribe from being destroyed. The end of massacre.

Among the Xiongnu Royal Tribe, the largest and most luxurious royal tent.

Today, the leaders of all the major tribes gathered here, and everyone had a lingering sadness on their faces.

"Great Chanyu, you must save us."

The leader of the Wusun tribe said with a grimace, "Recently, the group of Xiliang troops in the pass have gone crazy, going deep into the grassland to massacre our major tribes."

"He said that our cavalry entered the pass to plunder and killed Han Sui, the leader of their Xiliang army. This is a complete slander! A naked slander!"

"Immortal God, how dare we enter the pass and plunder now? Those barbaric guys deliberately used this reason to massacre our people!"

"That man named Ma Chao is so scary! He just bullied the Qiang people, but now he's even bullying us Huns!"

As soon as these words came out, they immediately resonated with the leaders of other tribes. They all complained and accused the Han army of their crimes, and they all burst into tears.

It's a pity that they didn't do anything, but the Xiliang army repeatedly entered the grassland to slaughter them. This is too unreasonable.

On the throne.

Huchuquan also felt extremely headache after listening to the complaints from the leaders of the major tribes. He raised his hand to suppress everyone's voices.

"I have investigated this matter clearly. This is a power struggle within the Xiliang Army. Ma Chao deliberately put the blame on us."

"The Xiliang army is strong, we are no match for them, we should hide if we can, resistance will only lead to their more crazy attacks."

Huochuquan sighed.

A tribal leader said: "Great Chanyu, you once helped the emperor return to the east and made great contributions, why don't you ask the emperor for help?"

"I heard that Ma Chao has surrendered to the emperor. As long as the emperor issues an order, he will definitely not send troops to us again."

When the emperor returned to the east, Huochuquan, as Chanyu, sent the Right Wise King to lead troops to escort him, which was a great contribution.

Huochuquan shook his head and said: "This matter is not that simple, and Ma Chao said that we killed Han Sui, what evidence do we have to prove our innocence?"

Although he knew that this matter was completely framed by Ma Chao, they had no way to prove their innocence. What if the emperor thought the same?

He could only find an opportunity to explain to the emperor again.

At this time, the Right Wise King Qubei said: "Chanyu, we recently found a Han army on the grassland, with a number of about a thousand people."

"They came from Bingzhou. Judging from the flag, they are the troops of Bingzhou Mu Gao Gan. They seem to be running for their lives."

"Gao Gan?"

Huhuquan was shocked and couldn't help asking: "Why did Gao Gan's troops come to the grassland? What happened in Bingzhou recently?"

Of course he knew the name of Gao Gan. This man was Bingzhou Mu, Yuan Shao's nephew, and his troops were also very powerful. They couldn't afford to provoke him.

Qubei replied: "Not long ago, the emperor sent troops to attack Bingzhou. Now Gao Gan appeared in the grassland. It seems that the emperor has broken through Jinyang City."

"Yuan Shao rebelled, and Gao Gan was a remnant of Yuan Shao's faction. He might have fled to the grassland to avoid the pursuit of the Han army."

"Looking at the route, they seem to be going to Wuhuan."

Huhuquan was quite shocked when he heard this.

Not to mention how difficult it is to send troops to fight in winter, the key is that Gao Gan was defeated so quickly? Bingzhou has a lot of soldiers!

In just a few years, the emperor's army... has become so powerful!

Just as Huochuquan was thinking, a scout suddenly rushed into the king's tent. He saw that the scout's face was full of fear. Before he could ask, he directly said in a trembling voice: "Chanyu, it's the Han army! The Han army has arrived in Jiuyuan County!"

This sentence directly changed the color of everyone present!

And Huochuquan was even paler, and asked in disbelief: "How many Han troops are there? Have you found out?"

The scout nodded and said: "I have found out, three thousand people."

Everyone was slightly relieved when they heard this. Huochuquan was annoyed and couldn't help but scolded: "It's just three thousand Han troops, not thirty thousand. Are you scared like this?"

Although the Han army is powerful, three thousand Han troops are not a big threat to them, so they are not so scared.

But the scout had a sad face and said in a voice full of suppressed fear: "But Chanyu, the commander of the 3,000 Han troops... is Lu Bu!"

Hearing this, the king's tent was instantly covered with dark clouds.

Everyone, including the Khan, turned pale.
