Three Kingdoms: The opening incorporates Li Cunxiao
Chapter 650: Heart knot removed, generals and ministers reconciled
"Here, a few people have passed by. The boat exit is too narrow and needs to be widened."
"Also, that camp is too low. Anyone who sleeps in it will be suffocated to death."
"Hurry up, haven't you eaten yet? Or do you want the brothers who come later to laugh at you?"
On the north bank of Chibi, Lu Bu was busy inside and outside.
But now he seemed to have really accepted Zhang Wu's exile and actually started to worry about trivial matters.
He did not care about military training, or food and supplies.
Instead, he was in charge of the construction and renovation of the ferry.
Standing next to him awkwardly were a group of Flying Tiger Battalion deputy commanders, including the current Flying Tiger Battalion commander Cao Xiu, and no one dared to make a sound.
Even though Zhang Wu showed no mercy when he attacked his father-in-law,
Anyone who dares to take Lu Bu lightly is asking for trouble.
Say a thousand words and ten thousand words.
Even though Lu Bu is nominally only Cao Xiu's deputy general today, everyone knows that it is still Lu Bu who actually controls the Flying Tiger Camp.
Although both of them are second in rank among the Yunxiao elite, any discerning person can see that Lu Bu ranks quite high. Looking at his life achievements, Cao Xiu's contributions are at most ranked in the middle of the Yunxiao ranks.
Even if we put aside his temporary appointment in the Flying Tiger Camp, he still holds the rank of former general. When he really returns to the court to step down, he will be a top military leader and will stand behind Zhang Wu during court meetings.
Even if Cao Xiu had the guts of a bear and a leopard, he wouldn't dare to really appoint Lord Lu as his deputy general.
Not to mention that there is a generation gap between the two.
Strictly speaking, Lu Bu was his uncle, so how could he dare to offend him?
"General, the Red Cliff camp is newly established. You can either go and train those wolf cubs, or let Xiu do the minor things."
"What bullshit is this? You are the commander-in-chief of the Flying Tiger Battalion, so just do what you are supposed to do."
Cao Xiu scratched his head and said, "Why are you all looking at me? Help persuade him! Wen Chou, it's all your fault, don't just stand there and pretend to be dead."
Wen Chou was also unequivocal. He knelt on one knee and kowtowed to Lu Bu: "I am incompetent and I have caused you to be punished."
"Get up. I allowed you to do what you wanted, so I should be responsible for what you did. Besides, I never thought you did anything wrong." Lu Bu said, and took a deep look at Kuai Yue who was sitting next to him drinking tea and watching the show. "Do you think Wen Chou's actions were reckless and presumptuous?"
Kuai Yue understood the ridicule from a warrior.
He stood up, patting his sleeves, and saluted towards Lu Bu: "General, I don't ask the reason, I don't pay attention to the details. For the benefit of the great Wei country, the Chanyu is not only not wrong, but also meritorious."
"Oh? You are quite honest, but so you admit the actions of those flatterers?"
"No, Yue just said it. The premise for a general to be blameless is not to ask for reasons or to examine details."
"Hmph! The lord has been living in Xiangyang for nearly six months, and you have no intention of serving the country. Instead, you use your beauty to seduce the lord all day long. Now you have been promoted to the position of Flying Tiger Military Supervisor based on your merits in seducing the lord. Don't you really have no shame in your heart?" Lu Bu did not blame Wen Chou, but that did not mean he had no opinion about this military supervisor.
Lu Bu’s sense of right and wrong is very simple: right is right and wrong is wrong.
How can he, a real man, be in the same league with a villain who deceives his master?
Kuai Yue looked around and saw that everyone around him was the backbone of the Wei Dynasty. He did not hide it any longer since Cao Cao had returned anyway.
"Do you know that His Majesty was not in Xiangyang that day?"
"what!"
"If the general does not believe it, you can go and ask King Jin to verify it. I think King Jin will not hide it at this moment."
After a moment of surprise, everyone began to sweat coldly.
Since Kuai Yue dared to ask Lu Bu to verify it, it is 99% likely to be true.
If this is the case.
Kuai Yue was not a villain who used her beauty to seduce her lord and climb to a high position. Instead, she was an unparalleled hero who saved the country from danger.
Put yourself in their shoes.
This matter concerns the safety of the emperor. No matter who was in Kuai Yue's position at that time, they would face the most difficult choice.
Deliberately concealing the emperor's itinerary could stabilize the domestic situation, but once the emperor made the slightest mistake, Kuai Yue would be committing a serious crime of having his property confiscated and his clan exterminated.
Report truthfully?
That would be even more dangerous.
No matter how close and friendly the princes of Wei seem to be at the moment, once the throne is involved, even if they have no intention, there will still be people with ulterior motives around them who will encourage them to take a step forward.
By then, the Wei Empire might collapse from within before the princes in the south of the Yangtze River could attack.
And Kuai Yue had kept it a secret for so long.
It is equivalent to transferring the risks of the Wei dynasty to himself.
Once the truth comes out, he will surely be dead.
Lu Bu felt a little ashamed.
It was obvious that they had earned this honor with their loyalty and their lives, but he accused them to their faces as treacherous ministers who misled their ruler.
Not only that, the other party was also his benefactor.
If it weren't for Kuai Yue's repeated obstruction, and if Lu Bu had really revealed the truth, it wouldn't just be Kuai Yue who would be put on the fire, but also Lu Bu.
"Yidu, Lu Bu. Alas! ~ It's a pity that Lu Bu has such a shallow vision that he mistook a national scholar for a local. I hope Yidu will forgive me for any offense I have caused."
"General, don't feel guilty. You and I are both working for the country. What's wrong with that? We are now working hard to defend the country. I hope you can take care of the overall situation and not get angry with King Jin."
"Bu is ashamed. From today on, Bu will do his utmost to assist Wen Lie and shake the Flying Tigers' military might."
Cao Xiu smiled bitterly: "General, you are putting me on the stove, aren't you? How dare I take you as my deputy? Please take the seat of the central army and command all military affairs."
In the military, strength is important, but seniority is even more important.
There was no big problem with him commanding the Flying Tiger Camp when Lu Bu was not around.
But now, he is like a mascot.
As long as Lu Bu is still around, no one will really regard him as the commander of a battalion.
Kuai Yue raised his hand to interrupt Cao Xiu: "General Wenlie, don't belittle yourself. Do your best to fulfill your duties. Don't worry, I think the emperor's edict will arrive soon. It won't be long before General Wenlie can return to the deputy capital of Feihu."
"How do you make such a prediction, sir?" Cao Xiu's question reflected the same doubt in everyone's mind.
"Have you ever heard that the emperor rushed 600 miles to Chang'an and the whole country was in turmoil, and all the brave generals and good ministers went to Xiangyang?"
The generals nodded.
"From this, we can see that the Battle of Red Cliffs was the last battle before the Wei Dynasty pacified the world. Jiangnan must be pacified, and meritorious service must be rewarded. If Wen Lie is asked to control Fengxian all the time, then Your Majesty will be in trouble."
Everyone suddenly realized.
It was obvious that Cao Xiu could not handle such a big scene alone.
Look at the commander of other camps.
Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun, Cao Ren.
When he really arrived at the Flying Tiger Camp, he found Cao Xiu in the same rank with them, which was indeed very strange.
"Thank you very much for your advice, sir. I admire you." Lu Bu spoke first.
All the generals shouted in unison: "Thank you for your advice, sir. We are impressed!"
This is the power of a man of adaptability.
With just a few words, Kuai Yue not only cleared himself, but also eliminated all misunderstandings.
He also firmly secured the position of military supervisor of the Flying Tiger Battalion and military advisor to Lu Bu.
In the future, this resume will help him gain extra points when he enters the core power circle of the Wei Dynasty.
As long as we can win the Battle of Red Cliffs, we can win it beautifully.
But is it really possible to lose Red Cliff?
With all the loyal ministers and brave warriors of Wei Dynasty out, can the coalition forces of the three Lius and Sun really defeat this fierce army?
