Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

Lu Bu's eyes were burning with fighting spirit. After being immersed in the battle for many days, the blood in his heart was boiling.

Zhang Fei, you evil bastard, this time, I will make you kneel in front of me and beg for mercy.

The news of Lu Bu mobilizing troops soon alarmed Chen Gong.

When Chen Gong heard that Lu Bu was going to lead his troops to Xia Pi, an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

What's going on? Could it be that Liu Huangshu really guessed it right?

Did Lu Bu never truly submit to Uncle Liu?

Since the first day he arrived in Pengcheng, the idea of ​​plotting to take over Xuzhou had taken root in his heart?

Chen Gong was a little uncertain, so he hurried to Lu Bu's residence. Seeing that Lu Bu had not had time to salute, he asked anxiously, "What does it mean that Marquis Wen has dispatched troops to attack Xiapi?"

"Zhang Fei, the black bastard, has insulted me time and again. How can I tolerate him?"

"Marquis Wen, Xia Pi City is well fortified and Zhang Fei is a brave general, how can it be captured so easily?

Even if you manage to capture it by chance, don't forget that there is still Uncle Liu. He is a man of extraordinary wisdom and strategy, so how can he just sit there and do nothing while Wen Hou occupies Xuzhou?"

With a smile on his face, Lu Bu calmly repeated what Cao Bao had just said.

Lu Bu thought Chen Gong would praise his idea. But after listening to it, Chen Gong hesitated for a moment and said slowly: "If we follow this plan, it is indeed possible to squeeze Liu Huangshu out of Xuzhou in a short time, but Wenhou has forgotten the means Liu Huangshu used to take Yuzhou.

After he returns to Yuzhou, he will definitely gather troops and attack Xuzhou. How will Wenhou respond then?

If Xuzhou is occupied by Emperor Liu again, Marquis Wen will probably have no place to stay."

What Chen Gong said was very profound. When Lu Bu surrendered to Emperor Liu, he had already calculated the princes of the world. After all the calculations, he found that he had offended almost all the princes of the world. Who would still take him in?

In this day and age, there is not much burden of loyalty when it comes to changing masters.

But if you smash the cooking pot when you leave, that’s another story.

Seeing that Lu Bu was expressionless and obviously did not realize the seriousness of the problem, Chen Gong continued to persuade him earnestly, "Cao Cao is determined to take Xuzhou. Even if Wen Hou subdues Zang Ba, he will not easily give up the attack on Xuzhou.

When we were in Yanzhou, we witnessed the fighting power of Cao's army. Now he has the help of Yuan Shao. Is Wenhou confident that he can withstand Cao Cao's attack?"

"Although Cao's army is numerous, in my opinion, they are just a mob and not worth mentioning at all. Gongtai, don't worry. After we occupy Xuzhou, as long as we hold on, Cao Cao will not be able to gain the upper hand even though he has a large number of troops."

"Marquis Wen, there is one more thing that we must be vigilant about. Yuan Shu has great ambitions. He has suffered heavy casualties. If we cannot give him great benefits, how can we make him behave himself? If he attacks Xuzhou in the south, how should Marquis Wen respond?"

"The Yuan family has three dukes in four generations. Yuan Shu is a great hero. How could he go back on his word?"

"In troubled times, interests come first. How can a person who aspires to rule the world keep his promise?"

There was no sign of retreat in Lu Bu's eyes.

"Gongtai, I have my own countermeasures. You stay in Pengcheng and wait for good news. It won't be long before Xuzhou falls into our hands. Then we will use Xuzhou as our base to build our careers."

There was a hint of sadness in Chen Gong's eyes.

At this moment, Gao Shun also hurried over. His expression remained unchanged, but the doubt in his eyes could no longer be concealed.

"Marquis Wen, we promised Uncle Liu that we would stay in Xuzhou. How can we change our plan and seize Xiapi now?"

"Bo Ping, just now Mr. Gongtai was saying that people who have ambitions for the world should not be bound by promises. Now that you are here, I will just say this to you."

Gao Shun was speechless after hearing this, and he subconsciously turned his gaze to Chen Gong, his eyes full of confusion.

Back in Xia Pi, Lu Bu wanted to surrender to Uncle Liu, but Uncle Liu had doubts in his heart. In front of Uncle Liu, you and I both made a vow. But only a few days have passed. Have those vows, which were heavier than Mount Tai, become nothing?

Looking at the look Gao Shun gave him, Chen Gong felt a little embarrassed. He had originally used that sentence to persuade Lu Bu, but who knew that the circular mark would hit him so quickly.

Judging from the look in Gao Shun's eyes, he probably already believes that this was his idea to Lu Bu.

Otherwise, there wouldn't have been a hint of shock in Gao Shun's eyes.

Chen Gong coughed twice to hide his embarrassment.

"Bo Ping, this is not what you think." Chen Gong explained slowly. After just a moment of contemplation, he had made up his mind. He looked at Lu Bu with a firm gaze and said, "I swore an oath in front of Uncle Liu. If Marquis Wen insists on plotting to seize Xuzhou, please forgive me for my lack of talent and knowledge. I can no longer serve Marquis Wen. Goodbye."

After saying this, he strode out without even a greeting.

Gao Shun was a little hesitant. It was Lu Bu who brought him from obscurity to where he is today. He had deep feelings for Lu Bu, but the situation he was facing now was very difficult for him to deal with. The words he said in front of Uncle Liu seemed to have come back to life at this moment and kept flooding into his mind.

"Marquis Wen..."

Gao Shun hesitated to speak.

Lu Bu watched Chen Gong leave, with a hint of anger in his eyes. Frankly speaking, he did not expect that Chen Gong would leave him.

In his opinion, although Chen Gong is sometimes stubborn, he has good insight and is a good strategist.

But if Lu Bu was asked to lose face and beg Chen Gong to come back, he really couldn't do it. Seeing Gao Shun's hesitation, Lu Bu's face became even more irritable.

"Bo Ping, are you going to leave me too?"

"Wen Hou, I..." Gao Shun struggled internally, not knowing what to say. He was silent for a long time before he slowly asked, "Wen Hou, can we not take Xuzhou?"

"The arrow is on the string and must be fired."

Gao Shun sighed deeply in his heart, tears streaming down his eyes unconsciously.

He bowed solemnly to Lu Bu and said slowly in a hoarse voice: "Wen Hou, I can no longer serve you. Please take care of yourself. No matter where I am, I will always wish you good health."

After saying that, he slowly turned around and walked out of the hall.

A breeze blew by, ruffling Gao Shun's slightly red eyes, and a few crystal clear beads fell continuously as if the string had broken.

In a trance, Gao Shun seemed to see that one day many years ago, the heroic Lu Bu was fighting several people alone on horseback. Under the setting sun, the Fang Tian Huaji in his hand was like a swimming dragon.

Lu Bu was dressed in armor, which shone brightly in the sunlight, making him look like a god.
