The Strongest Lu Bu: Sweeping the World

Lu Bu said: "Yuan Gonglu is from the Yuan family, and Yuan Benchu ​​is also from the Yuan family."

"Marquis Wen, the relationship between Yuan Shu and Zhou Mu is known all over the world." Xu You got up and said.

Lu Bu waved his hand and said, "No matter what, Yuan Benchu ​​sent Ziyuan to come here at this moment, my lord, thank you very much."

Xu You nodded secretly. Through a short conversation, he found that Lu Bu was not a simple person. When looking at things, he was clearly extremely wise. The character is still a warrior on the battlefield, fighting on the battlefield, making the enemy frightened.

"Yuan Shu wanted to attack Marquis Wen, Zhou Mu was very worried when he heard about it, and Yuan Shu was a villain again." Xu You said, "If Yuan Shu sends troops, Zhou Mu will definitely stand by Marquis Wen's side."

"I don't know how many troops Yuan Benchu ​​can send to help me?" Lu Bu asked lightly.

Xu You looked distressed, "Marquis Wen, you know what's going on in Jizhou. Gongsun Zan is powerful. It's still difficult for the Jizhou army to fight against Gongsun Zan. The state shepherd is also powerless."

"However, the state pastor will give Wen Hou righteous support."

Lu Bu nodded and said, "Yuan Benchu ​​has a heart."

Lu Bu directly referred to Yuan Shao as Yuan Benchu, so Xu You naturally did not dare to have an opinion. Lu Bu is different from other princes. It would be unwise to offend Lu Bu because of the title problem. Xu You will definitely scold him.

The envoys of the princes represent the face of the princes. If they can't even preserve the face of their own monarch, wouldn't it be a joke.

"Yuan Shu's method is not as simple as it appears on the surface. He has the help of the Black Clothes Pavilion in the dark, and maybe someone from the Momen is there to help. I hope Wen Hou can deal with it carefully." Xu Youyu said earnestly. The feudal lords have much dissatisfaction with Lu Bu. At present, Lu Bu is the best way to contain Yuan Shu. If Lu Bu loses the battle with Yuan Shu, it will not benefit Yuan Shao at all.

Chapter 251 Trading

Yuan Shu's strength is so great, even if Lu Bu caused Yuan Shu a lot of losses on the battlefield in Yanzhou, in Xu You's view, Lu Bu still has a lot of trouble if he wants to succeed in a head-on confrontation against Yuan Shu.

Lu Bu nodded and said, "Thank you for reminding me."

Momen will be exposed at this time, and it is also within Lu Bu's expectation. Yuan Shao is likely to get help from Momen.

From the choice of the Mo Sect, it can be seen that the current influence of the Yuan family among the princes, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are both the children of the Yuan family, and they can get the help of the Mo Sect at the same time, which shows that the Mo Sect attaches great importance to the Yuan family , They want to make the Momen to glory again through the hands of the Momen.

Yuan Shu had the help of the Black Clothes Pavilion in the dark, how could Yuan Shao have no other means? It is said that when Yuan Shao was in Luoyang, he made friends with various religions and elites, and for this reason, the officials in the court often discussed it.

Now that one party is truly in power, there will definitely be more talents to help, but only in terms of talents, Yuan Shu is still difficult to compare with Yuan Shao.

"Marquis Wen, the battle between Zhou Mu and Gongsun Zan is imminent. I wonder if Marquis Wen can sponsor some hundred-refined weapons?" Xu You asked with a smile.

Lu Bu said, "I don't know how many hundreds of refined weapons the Jizhou Army needs?"

"Two thousand." Xu You said.

Lu Bu frowned slightly when he heard the words, two thousand hundred refined weapons is not a small amount, Yuan Shao had bought thousands of hundred refined weapons from Pengcheng before, if this is the case, the hundreds of hundred refined weapons in Yuan Shao's army , will exceed three thousand.

"The situation under Benhou's rule must have been seen by Ziyuan. Two thousand hundred refined weapons are not a small sum." Lu Bu pondered for a moment and said: "Since Yuan Benchu ​​supports Benhou, Benhou must have It means that there will be thousands of Hundred Refined Weapons, but the Jizhou side will send the materials for the exchange of Hundred Refined Weapons.”

"Just according to Marquis Wen's words." Xu You directly agreed.

The situation in Xuzhou was tense, and Xu You didn't think that Lu Bu would use other methods at this time. If he wanted to take advantage of Yuan Shao and offend both Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao at the same time, it would not be of any benefit to Lu Bu.

"This Marquis happens to have a batch of hundred-refined weapons in his hands," Lu Bu said.

Xu You changed his expression and said with a smile: "It seems that Marquis Wen doesn't plan to trade with Yuan Shu anymore."

"Hmph, Yuan Shu wants to attack Benhou, so could Benhou still trade the Hundred Refined Weapons to him? It's just wishful thinking." Lu Bu snorted coldly.

Xu You cupped his hands and said, "Thank you Marquis Wen for your help."

With thousands of refined weapons, the Jizhou army will have greater protection when fighting against Gongsun Zan. The victory in the confrontation last year has refreshed the soldiers of the Jizhou army. After defeating Gongsun Zan, who can fight against Gongsun Zan? Block the pace of the Jizhou army.

It was Jia Xu who met Yuan Shu's envoy Yuan Huan.

In front of Jia Xu, Yuan Huan showed arrogance. Judging from the current situation, Xuzhou is the most urgent. He believes that Yuan Shu has enough means to drive Lu Bu out of Xuzhou. This is his trust in his own monarch. .

The battle between the two armies was not only about the elite and number of soldiers in the army, but also had a great relationship with the support from the rear. Besides, with the background of the Yuan family, it was not difficult at all to drive Lu Bu out of Xuzhou.

Back then, if Lu Bu hadn't had Yuan Shu's righteous support, it would have been impossible for him to gain a firm foothold in Xuzhou. Now that Lu Bu has full wings, he wants to fight Yuan Shu. How could it be such a simple matter.

When facing Yuan Huan, Jia Xu acted with reason and evidence, and was not angry because of Yuan Huan's arrogance, nor would he let Yuan Huan's verbal temptation succeed.

After some conversation, Yuan Huan was a little disappointed. Jia Xu's performance made him feel helpless. Ordinarily, the large-scale mobilization of soldiers and horses in Yuzhou and Yangzhou would definitely detect something wrong with Lu Bu's advisers. He had an air of no sense of urgency.

Could it be that Lu Bu still simply believed that Yuan Shu and him were allies and would not send troops to attack? If so, it would be a very good opportunity for Yuan Shu.

Among the princes, there is no ally relationship. What they pursue is whether the alliance can bring the greatest benefits. If one party's strength is not enough to make the other party afraid, a war may break out between the two sides.

Especially in the current situation, the development of Yuan Shu and Lu Bu has reached a critical point. Liu Biao has stabilized Jingzhou, and the Jingzhou army has killed the Jiangdong tiger Sun Jian. It has become the best target for mobilizing troops.

"The envoy can rest assured that since Marquis Wen has agreed to trade the Hundred Refined Weapons with General Yuan, he will not go back on his word. As in the past, as long as General Yuan orders people to deliver the supplies to the vicinity of Changyi, we will send the Hundred Refined Weapons to you. .” Jia Xu said.

"Marquis Wen has a heart. After my emissary returns, I will definitely tell General Yuan." Yuan Huan showed a satisfied smile.

After the arrival of the envoys of the two parties, the envoy of Liu Bei, Prime Minister of Pingyuan, came to Pengcheng.

Now Zhang Fei is still being imprisoned in Pengcheng, which is what Liu Bei is most concerned about.

Jian Yong, who was dispatched by Liu Bei this time, Liu Bei admired Jian Yong's talent very much.

Xuzhou once again attracted the attention of the princes.

The great changes in Chang'an have once again trampled on the dignity of the imperial court. At this time, the princes are fighting for their own interests, and it seems that no princes care about the court's face.

"Zibu, I'll leave it to you to deal with the meeting with Liu Bei's envoy," Lu Bu said.

Zhang Zhao clapped his hands and said yes.

"Then Liu Bei owes me a lot of supplies." Lu Bu laughed.

Guo Jia cupped his hands and said, "My lord, from my subordinate's point of view, Liu Bei sent envoys here not only to make friends with my lord, but also for other purposes."

"Feng Xiao, tell me in detail." Lu Bu showed interest.

"At present, Yuan Shu has the intention to attack Xuzhou. Liu Bei must have seen it. The envoy came here to test the lord, and Zhang Fei is Liu Bei's sworn brother. He has been in Pengcheng for two years. It must be Liu Bei's. I will be very worried in my heart, Liu Bei owes the lord a lot of supplies, if the lord proposes to exchange these supplies for Zhang Fei, maybe it will be successful." Guo Jia said.

Lu Bu nodded slightly and said: "The words of filial piety are feasible. Those supplies may be a huge amount in Liu Bei's eyes, but they are not worth mentioning in the eyes of the Marquis. If they can be exchanged for the help of a strong general like Zhang Fei, it will definitely be worth it." one thing."

Zhang Zhao nodded knowingly. He had also heard about some things about Zhang Fei. Being able to fight against Lu Bu dozens of times was definitely a formidable fighter.

Chapter 252 Jian Yong and Zhang Zhao

"I've seen Zhang engaged." After seeing Zhang Zhao, Jian Yong was very polite.

Strength, sometimes determines what kind of attitude the envoy will have. Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are powerful. Sending envoys to Xuzhou will naturally not be bad in terms of aura. But Liu Bei is now in Pingyuan, although Pingyuan is quite wealthy in Qingzhou , with a large population, compared with a state, there is still a big gap.

"I don't know why the envoy came here?" Zhang Zhao asked indifferently.

Jian Yong secretly despised, he already knew something about Zhang Zhao on the way to Xuzhou, Zhang Zhao was a well-known person in Xuzhou, but he couldn't bear the pressure, he took refuge with Lu Bu, and he didn't show the pride of a scholar .

"Zhang Zong, Prime Minister Pingyuan and Marquis Wen are allies. The two sides have a lot of contacts. Now that Qingzhou is unstable, I wonder if Zhang Zong can convey to Marquis Wen that I will bring General Zhang Fei back to Pingyuan." Jian Yong said slowly. .

Zhang Zhao said with a smile: "In the past, Marquis Wen had a saying that there was an agreement on how to take General Zhang Fei away."

"Zhang Zong, Prime Minister Ping Yuan will definitely send supplies in the future. Zhang Zong must be able to see how the situation in Xuzhou is now." Jian Yong said.

Zhang Zhao snorted coldly: "The mere envoy of Prime Minister Ping Yuan dares to be so presumptuous in front of this official."

One can imagine the dissatisfaction in Zhang Zhao's heart when he threatened others verbally. After taking refuge in Lv Bu, he got a chance to display his talents. When things happen, you must stand on Lu Bu's side.

After the master humiliated the official and died, the envoy of a mere county came to Xuzhou and behaved so rampantly. Such a thing is hard to tolerate.

"Zhang Zong, if Marquis Wen agrees to release General Zhang Fei, Prime Minister Ping Yuan will support Marquis Wen in terms of strength, which will benefit both parties." Jian Yong's tone slowed down a lot.

Zhang Zhao laughed and said, "Prime Minister Ping Yuan is just a defeated general under Marquis Wen, how much support can he give Marquis Wen?"

Jian Yong's complexion was slightly red, the lieutenant soldiers failed to defeat the Xuzhou Army in the confrontation, and it was indeed a little embarrassing to say these words in front of Zhang Zhao.

Jian Yongdao: "Prime Minister Ping Yuan is not as powerful as Marquis Wen, but he can send two thousand troops to help."

"Prince Pingyuan's kindness, I will pass it on to Marquis Wen, but if Prime Minister Pingyuan wants to get Zhang Fei, he must send the supplies agreed at the beginning. Now General Zhang Fei's food and drink expenses in the city must also be counted to Prime Minister Pingyuan body." Zhang Zhao said.

Jian Yong showed embarrassment and redeemed Zhang Fei. With Pingyuan's current financial resources, even if he barely managed to do so, he would fall into a huge crisis. After Liu Bei took charge of Pingyuan, he was famous for his benevolence and righteousness, and stabilized the lives of the people. So got a good reputation.

If it was because of Zhang Fei that the common people were searched wantonly, it would have a greater impact on Liu Bei.

Yuan Shu has the tendency to send troops to attack Xuzhou, which makes Liu Bei see the opportunity coming. Yuan Shu is so strong. Lu Bu has not stabilized Yanzhou for a long time. It is very difficult to form a situation where Yuan Shu is confronted on the battlefield. If Liu Bei is at this time If Lv Bu is supported, it will be a certain help to Lv Bu, and it is reasonable for Lv Bu to release Zhang Fei by the way.

As Guo Jia guessed, Liu Bei was indeed a little worried about Zhang Fei. At the beginning, the three brothers married Jinlan, but after years of hard work, Liu Bei was still too weak in strength. Compared with the other princes, there was a lot of gap. A military general who is famous all over the world, even though he has a bad reputation, is very attractive to generals.

No one is sure whether Zhang Fei will change his original inner thoughts in Xuzhou.

If Zhang Fei seeks refuge with Lu Bu, there will inevitably be many hidden dangers.

"I have a policy." Zhang Zhaodao: "Now Prime Minister Ping Yuan owes Marquis Wen a lot of supplies. If Prime Minister Ping Yuan can agree to one thing, Marquis Wen will not only not ask for these supplies, but will also send hundreds of them. A hundred refined weapons and a hundred excellent war horses."

Jian Yong's heart moved, he naturally knew the value of a hundred-refined weapon and an excellent war horse.

"I don't know what Zhang Zong said?"

Zhang Zhaodao: "General Zhang Fei is a strong general on the battlefield. Marquis Wen also appreciates General Zhang's bravery. Such a strong general is only under house arrest in the city. Wouldn't it be a waste? If Prime Minister Ping Yuan can help Marquis Wen persuade General Zhang Fei If you take refuge, all the supplies owed will be written off, and Marquis Wen will also send you hundreds of refined weapons and excellent war horses."

"Doing what you say is of great importance, and I can't make the decision." Jian Yong said.

"It's not too late to reply after the envoy contacts Pingyuan." Zhang Zhao said with a smile.

Jian Yong said goodbye and left. This matter may be a big deal in Lu Bu's eyes, but in Liu Bei's eyes, it must be a big deal. Zhang Fei is Liu Bei's sworn brother. If he betrays others, it will make people in the world think of Liu Bei.

And Liu Bei is also eager to know whether Zhang Fei is as loyal to him as before.

Sometimes, the friendship between brothers will also change.

Judging from the current situation, perhaps Zhang Fei really has the intention to seek refuge in Xuzhou.

The materials owed by Liu Bei are not a big deal to Lu Bu, and exchanging these materials for Zhang Fei's refuge will not only make Zhang Fei's refuge justified, but also reduce Liu Bei's material burden. Zhang Fei has already made the decision to seek refuge with Lu Bu, and what is needed is Liu Bei's promise.

Jian Yong had to consider these situations. The situation in Xuzhou is tense now, but it is not something Liu Bei can handle. The previous battles have well demonstrated how terrifying the Xuzhou army with Lu Bu is in terms of strength. Lu Bu has benefited from it, but he still needs to calm down and wait.

Xuzhou's wealth is not comparable to that of Qingzhou. If Liu Bei can get some benefits in Xuzhou when Yuan Shu and Lu Bu are fighting each other, it will definitely be beneficial to Liu Bei's subsequent development.

The melee of the princes is about the competition of strength. If the strength is not enough, how can we form a confrontation with the princes.

Without strength, even the envoy will have no status under the other party's rule. The reality is so cruel.

Looking at Jian Yong's leaving back, Zhang Zhao showed a smile, Jian Yong was probing, why not? From Jian Yong's attitude, we can see what kind of thoughts Liu Bei will have.

Now it seems that Liu Bei is indeed suspicious of Zhang Fei, which is good news for Lu Bu.

Chapter 253

Getting the help of a fierce general will help the Xuzhou army in a lot of ways, and this is also a proof of his ability. Zhang Fei has been under house arrest in Pengcheng for two years and has not made any progress. It will be impressive for him to accomplish such a thing .

As a military general, Lu Bu's development of the strength of his army is unimaginable for other princes.

The training of the generals of the Xuzhou Army is in full swing. It seems that they feel the breath of war. The generals have extremely strict requirements on the soldiers under their command.

After Lu Bu went to inspect the army, he nodded in satisfaction. The army's spirit is available, and it will bring more victories in the future battles. No matter what means Yuan Shu has, as long as the army can win in the confrontation, it will let Yuan Shu's plan ended without a problem, and even got more benefits from Yuan Shu's hands.

At present, the Yanzhou Army and Xuzhou Army have not been mobilized. It does not mean that Lu Bu has no other means to face Yuan Shu's attack.

Relying on the [-] Xuzhou army, Lu Bu is confident that he can resist the attack of Yuan Shu's army in a short period of time. If he wins against Yuan Shu with an army of [-], the benefits he will get will be beyond imagination.

However, judging from the information, Yuan Shu's attack on Xuzhou will mobilize 8 troops, which is quite a number. The key is what kind of attitude Jiangdong will have in this battle.

Confronting Yuan Shu is the biggest test for Lu Bu. After defeating Yuan Shu, no one can stop Lu Bu's rise.

It is unknown to Yuan Shu how many families Xuzhou has in the dark center. If Lu Bu shows enough strength, Xuzhou's family will continue to stand by his side. If not, there will be serious consequences.

Soldiers are a major matter for the country, even if it is a strong side, there is a possibility of failure. There are many battles in history where fewer people win more.

Whether Lu Bu can turn the tide at the critical moment is also of great concern to the Xuzhou family.

In war, victory cannot be won without the high martial arts skills of a general, but the elite soldiers in the army are needed.

"Order the generals of the various ministries to come to the tent of the Chinese army!" Lu Bu said in a deep voice.

It is still very necessary to let the generals in the army know more news, so that they have more preparations for the war, so that they will not panic when the war comes.

Lu Bu sat at the top, looked around at the generals in the tent, and said with a smile, "I just saw the training of the soldiers in the army, and I am very satisfied."

The lieutenant general smiled when he heard the words, and being able to get Lu Bu's approval is the greatest encouragement for the lieutenant general.
