Gao Shun's expression caught Liu Yu's eyes, and Liu Yu was secretly delighted. It was obvious that Gao Shun was a little disappointed that Lu Bu had easily agreed to his request.

Liu Yu had sharp eyes and naturally saw the disappointment in Gao Shun's eyes, but he knew that in Gao Shun's heart, Lu Bu's position was very important. Even if he could defeat the Xianzhen Camp, Gao Shun might not surrender to him, so he naturally would not stop there.

"Wen Hou, in my heart, Bo Ning is a virtuous, loyal, brave and good fighter. He is an unparalleled general. I obviously won by betting the entire Luoyang City with Bo Ning, but I still have a worry. What if Bo Ping is unwilling to follow me after I win?"

"Don't worry, uncle. If you win, I will make Bo Ping keep his promise."

"If he still insists on following Marquis Wen, what will Marquis Wen do?"

"I'd just let him go."

Seeing the increasingly ugly expression on Gao Shun's face, Liu Yu's heart was filled with joy.

Gao Shun was Lu Bu's top general. If he could be made to submit to him, Lu Bu's threat would be greatly reduced.

In view of Gao Shun's loyalty, in order to make him surrender willingly, the only way was to constantly shatter his fantasies about Lu Bu.

"Wen Hou's promise is good, but I still want to ask Bo Ping in person. Bo Ping, if I can win, are you willing to help me?"

Gao Shun's eyes flickered. Facing Liu Yu's question, he didn't know how to start. To some extent, Uncle Liu was indeed a wise leader, but Lu Bu had been kind to him in the past and had saved his life many times. In his heart, he had already determined on Lu Bu. He had made a promise to himself that Lu Bu would be his only master in this life.

This is his promise, but also his belief.

Facing Liu Yu's question at this time, he pondered for a moment and gave his answer.

"I do not want to."

Liu Yu was not surprised at this answer. In history, Gao Shun could be said to be Lu Bu's die-hard fan. No matter how Lu Bu distrusted him or restricted him, he remained loyal to Lu Bu.

Later, when Lu Bu died at Baimen Tower, facing Cao Cao's recruitment, he never uttered a soft word until his death. It was obviously not easy for him to recruit him under his command.

"Marquis Wen, since Bo Ping is unwilling, the bet just now is void. Let's fight it out on the battlefield."

"But I want to make it clear in advance that no matter whether we win or lose this battle, I will not give up anything in Luoyang City. If Wen Hou wins, I will mobilize 20,000 elite soldiers from Chang'an and 40,000 elite soldiers from Yuzhou. Together, the 60,000 troops will attack Luoyang and take Luoyang City into my own hands."

Lu Bu was speechless for a moment. It turned out that Liu Yu had been talking for a long time just to fight against Xianzhen Camp alone. Lu Bu was confused. Where did Liu Yu get his confidence from?

If Lu Bu could capture Luoyang in one battle, with Liu Yu's troops coming in an endless stream, Lu Bu would definitely be in a very difficult situation.

Although he could occupy Luoyang, he would also suffer casualties in this battle, and he would need time to recover his troops.

If Liu Yu called back all his troops and tried to capture Luoyang at all costs, it would be really difficult for Lu Bu to occupy Luoyang safely.

He turned his gaze to Gao Shun and said, "Bo Ping, just promise Liu Huangshu that we both know the strength of the Xianzhen Camp. How can we fail against two thousand infantrymen?"

"But……"

"No buts." Lu Bu's words became more and more sharp. "This is a military order."

Gao Shun sighed deeply in his heart, and after a long while, he took a step forward.

"Uncle, if the Xianzhen Camp is defeated, I am willing to follow you."

"Bo Ping is a contemporary hero, and he will certainly not break his promise in front of all the heroes in the world. In that case, let the competition begin."

"Is the Emperor's uncle so confident?" Gao Shun asked with some confusion.

"Of course I have some confidence, but no one can guarantee whether there will be any accidents. But as long as there is a slight chance of getting Bo Ping, I don't mind taking some risks."

"Even if it means losing the mighty city of Luoyang, my uncle will not hesitate."

"Bo Ping's talent is rare in the world. If Bo Ping can help me, it will be better than a hundred thousand soldiers. If Bo Ping is willing to surrender, let alone one city, even if it is ten, I will give it to him without hesitation."

Liu Yu's words were earnest and his feelings were sincere, which moved Gao Shun, who was always calm.

Am I really that important in the eyes of Uncle Liu?

Not only was he willing to bet on a mighty city, he also seemed to feel that this mighty city was not as important as himself.

This feeling was very strange. He had never felt it on Lu Bu before.

Lu Bu's faint laughter rang out in the audience.

"Uncle Liu's words of deception should be discussed after we win the battle."

"Bo Ping."

"exist."

"Prepare the troops and prepare for battle."

"but!"

Lu Bu's order made Gao Shun wake up instantly. He mounted his horse, exuding a compelling aura.

"Entrap the enemy camp, follow me to kill the enemy."

“When charging forward, there is only advancement and no retreat;

"The will to break through the enemy lines is to die rather than live."

"Kill the enemy!"

"Kill the enemy!"

"Kill the enemy!"

……

……

The shouts and cries of killing were deafening. Although there were only 800 people, the momentum they displayed was like that of thousands of troops.

Liu Yu secretly admired in his heart that it was no coincidence that the Xianzhen Camp was known to be invincible.

Sun Tzu's Art of War says it very well: those who have the same desire will win.

Gao Shun brought out the soul of the Xianzhen Camp. Before Gao Shun got on his horse, the army was silent and low-key, without any momentum. When Gao Shun got on his horse and shouted slogans, the army was like a cold statue that was suddenly injected with soul and came alive instantly.

Looking at this low-key and silent army, Liu Yu remembered a sentence said by the young men in the surrounding villages.

Every army has its own tradition. What is tradition? Tradition is a kind of character and temperament. This tradition and character are determined by the character and temperament of the first military chief when the army was established. He injected soul into the army.

This silent and low-key military character is exactly Gao Shun's character, which also explains why this invincible army quickly disappeared in the long river of history after Gao Shun's death.

"Zhongkang, form a battle array to meet the enemy."

"only!"

Xu Chu's voice was like thunder, rang out in the field, and he gave an order.

Two thousand soldiers advanced in an orderly manner, and one thousand of them quickly formed a circular formation, one holding a long shield in one hand and a short sword in the other, forming a circular formation.

Behind the army formation, there was a group of soldiers holding short swords. Apart from that, there was nothing else, not even a shield.

This formation was very strange, and even though Lu Bu had been on many battlefields, he had never encountered it before.

He didn't believe that such a simple battle tactic could withstand the attack of the Xianzhen Camp.
