Return to the Three Kingdoms with the Empire System

Chapter 53 Buying Lu Bu
"Zhang Xiu, you still dare to come back?" Seeing Zhang Xiu who came with the army, Zhang Liao immediately raised his gun and shouted.

The Bingzhou army had just cleaned up the battlefield, but unexpectedly, a spies reported that Zhang Xiu had brought the army back to fight again.Lu Bu had just left the barracks and returned to Luoyang City to report the battle situation to Ding Yuan, while Ye Yi was injured, and the army had not yet rested.In desperation, Zhang Liao came out to fight with the Bingzhou Wolf Riders who were originally guarding the barracks and the trapped camp.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not here to fight your army." Zhang Xiu heard what Zhang Liao said, and quickly defended.

"Then what are you here for? You wouldn't tell me that you came to surrender when you brought an army of [-], would you?" Zhang Liao naturally didn't believe Zhang Xiu's words, and only thought that Zhang Xiu had some kind of conspiracy.

After hearing Zhang Liao's words, Zhang Xiu's face showed a hint of embarrassment and said, "Xiu is here to surrender."

Hearing Zhang Xiu say that he came to surrender, Zhang Liao didn't realize it all at once. This guy really came to surrender. How could it be possible? It must be a false surrender.Shaking his head, looking at Zhang Xiu, Zhang Liao pointed at Zhang Liao, and said, "Could it be that you think you can fool us by feigning surrender? Don't dream, fight if you want!"

Zhang Xiu was helpless and came to surrender himself, but Zhang Liao still didn't believe it.However, Zhang Xiu didn't care about Zhang Liao. The person he was surrendering to was not the Bingzhou Army anyway, so he shouted to Zhang Liao: "I have a letter here. Give it to Ye Yi and ask him to deliver it to the head of the Ye family. He will naturally understand it." of."

Seeing that Zhang Xiu really took out a letter, Zhang Liao was also stunned.But in order to prevent fraud, he asked a cavalry behind him to go up and get the letter back.Zhang Liao didn't even read the letter when he got it, so he sent someone to the camp to hand it to Ye Yi.

Zhang Xiu saw that someone in the Bingzhou Army left with his letter, so he knew it was for Ye Yi.And he also knew that the Bingzhou army could not believe this matter for the time being, so he directly ordered his subordinates to rest in place.

Seeing Zhang Xiu's army resting in place, Zhang Liao still did not relax his vigilance. After leading the army to the barracks, he ordered people to start martial law to prevent Zhang Xiu's troops from changing.

As soon as Ye got the letter, he wanted to hand it to Ye Mo by himself, but he was still injured and couldn't move, so he asked Ye Zhen to take the trip.

As Lu Bu's personal soldier, Ye Zhen should have acted with Lu Bu.But Lu Bu was going to see Ding Yuan this time, and Ding Yuan was prejudiced against the Ye family for some reason.Therefore, Lu Bu did not let Ye Zhen go with him. At the same time, he could also let Ye Zhen take care of Ye Yi.

Ye Zhen was originally bored because there was no battle, but now that something is going on, he doesn't talk nonsense, just takes the letter and rides away in the direction of Luoyang City.

In Ding Yuan's courtyard, Lu Buzheng reported today's battle situation to Ding Yuan.

After listening to Lu Bu's report, Ding Yuan became angry for a while, threw the teacup in his hand to the ground, and cursed: "The people of the Ye family are really incompetent. They failed before the battle and damaged the morale of our army. There are so many casualties."

Lu Bu had expected that Ding Yuan would be angry, after all, the Bingzhou army suffered too much loss, but he did not expect that Ding Yuan would vent his anger on Ye Yi again.One must know that Ye Yi was not a member of the Bingzhou army, and even though he was a soldier of Lu Bu, he had not really joined the army.In other words, Ye Yi did not have to fight at all.

But if Ye Yi didn't fight, the morale of the Bingzhou army would be really damaged, not to mention, Ye Yi almost killed himself because of this battle.It's fine for Ding Yuan not to say anything to comfort and encourage him, but he still wants to attribute the big loss of this battle to Ye Yi.

"Father, the victory in this battle is thanks to Ye Zhen. If Ye Zhen hadn't shot Zhang Ji and wounded Zhang Xiu and Guo Si, I'm afraid our army might not have won this battle." Ding Yuan blamed Ye Yi, then Lu Bu couldn't speak for Ye Yi, he only said that Ye Zhen's military exploits were indispensable, and he wanted to use this to make Ding Yuan lessen his prejudice against the Ye family.

"Hmph!" Hearing that Lu Bu actually defended the Ye family, Ding Yuan also snorted angrily, and said, "Isn't it right for the rest of the Ye family to make up for Ye Yi's mistakes? Fengxian, are you letting the Ye family Are you fascinated by the rhetoric of the old man?"

Hearing the dissatisfaction with him in Ding Yuan's tone, Lu Bulian said "I dare not".In the following conversation, Lu Bu just echoed Ding Yuan's words, and didn't say anything more.

Ding Yuan felt dissatisfied when he saw Lu Bu half-heartedly explaining what he said, but it was inconvenient for him to say anything more. "Fengxian, today I will follow you to the barracks and reward the soldiers."

"Yes, it's all up to the adoptive father to decide."

In Ye Mansion, Ye Mo took Jia Xu's letter to him, and also understood the reason why Zhang Xiu surrendered.

In the previous life, Jia Xu also persuaded Zhang Xiu to surrender to Cao Cao, but that was just Jia Xu's way to join Cao Cao's side, but this time it was to accumulate capital for him, Ye Mo.

"Let's go, let's go to the Bingzhou military camp." Looking at Ye Zhen, Ye Mo said.

In Dong Zhuo's barracks, Dong Zhuo had already heard the situation of the battle from the soldiers who had escaped, and Zhang Xiu's defection made Dong Zhuo extremely annoyed.

"First Hua Xiong was defeated, then Li Jue, Guo Si, and Zhang Ji were killed, and Zhang Xiu defected. Our army was greatly damaged, do you have any ideas?" Looking at the civil servants and generals in the tent, Dong Zhuo was annoyed, but extremely lonely.

Hua Xiong in the tent turned red with embarrassment when he heard Dong Zhuo's words, and buried his head under the table.

"General, our army was defeated in this battle because of Lu Bu's superior military power. If Lu Bu's persuasion can be attributed to the general, why should the general fail?" Suddenly, a civil servant stood up and said.

Dong Zhuo, who was still very lonely at first, saw this person come out to offer advice, a gleam of hope appeared in his eyes, and said: "So it's Wei Gong, can you teach me?"

"This subordinate and Lv Bu are young people. This man is brave and unscrupulous, and forgets righteousness when he sees profit. If the general is willing to spend a lot of money, the subordinate will be able to persuade Lv Bu to submit to the general for the general. Moreover, Ding Yuan has been taking Lv Bu's credit for a long time, making Lv Bu I have been dissatisfied with him for a long time." This person turned out to be Li Su, a fellow of Lu Bu's hometown, and Wei Gong was Li Su's name.

"If I can make Lu Bu surrender to me, I will pay even ten thousand gold." Dong Zhuo immediately replied.If Lu Bu surrenders, the threat of Bingzhou Army will no longer exist.When the two armies are united, he will be able to replace the emperor and command the world. By then, he will be able to have not only ten thousand gold, but even one hundred thousand gold.

"If you want Lu Bu to surrender to the general, money alone may not be able to impress Lu Bu." Li Su said a little embarrassed at this time.If Dong Zhuo was only willing to pay, then he might not be able to complete this errand.

"What else does Weigong need?" Dong Zhuo can really give him anything as long as Lu Bu surrenders.

"My subordinates heard that the general has a BMW. If this horse can be given to Lu Bu, Lu Bu will definitely submit to the general." Li Su knew that all heroes love BMWs, but Lu Bu, as a powerful general in the world, did not have a good mount. , taking BMW as a guide, he is not afraid that Lu Bu will not accept it.

The BMW that Li Su was talking about was the red rabbit horse, a king horse he caught on the grassland not long ago, and Dong Zhuo planned to use it as his own mount after he had tamed it well.But at this time, Dong Zhuo was still capable of being a hero, and after thinking for a while, he said, "This general should just add something more. I will take another thousand gold and send it along with the set of armor in the treasury."

Hearing that Dong Zhuo had placed such a heavy threat, Li Su quickly knelt down and said: "I will live up to the general's trust and make Lu Bu return to the general."

With the BMW armor and a thousand pieces of gold, Li Su headed towards the Bingzhou Army barracks.

"Stop, who is it?" At the gate of the Bingzhou Army's barracks, Li Su was stopped by guards.

"This is your fellow countryman of General Lu's. His name is Li Su. Why don't you report it quickly?" Li Su said arrogantly when he saw someone stop him.

Coincidentally, the two guards were the ones who stopped Ye Mo and the others before.The two suffered a loss because of the previous incident, so they didn't dare to ask for money this time, so they sent one of them to Lu Buna to report the news.The man muttered as he walked, "What day is it today? My lord is here, and so are General Ye's clansmen. Here comes another fellow of General Lu's."

After rewarding the soldiers with Ding Yuan, Lu Bu returned directly to his camp.Not long after, Ye Zhen came in with a guard and said that a fellow from his hometown would come to see him. When he heard that it was Li Su, he asked the guard to bring Li Su in.

Ye Zhen, as Lu Bu's personal soldier, happened to be his turn to watch the night with Ye Yi tonight, but as soon as Ye Yi was injured, he was the only one here.

Li Su was quickly brought into Lu Bu's tent, and once inside, Li Su said, "Lu Fengxian, do you still remember me?"

"Li Weigong, how could I forget? Sit down." Lu Bu was also very happy to see Fa Xiao here.

"I keep looking for you today not because of the old times, but because of something." Li Su said, still looking at Ye Zhenna twice.

Lu Bu noticed that Li Su's eyes glanced at Ye Zhen inappropriately, and said to Ye Zhen, "Ye Zhen, you go back first, you don't need to be on duty tonight."

After hearing what Lu Bu said, Ye Zhen withdrew, but when he went out, he found a carriage parked outside the tent.
