Chapter 199 Lu Bu among men


Chapter 199: Lu Bu among men

Hearing this, Lu Bu became a little proud.

In Lu Bu's opinion, Liu Bei is truly sincere and what he says is absolutely right.

I am indeed a hero of the Han Dynasty. I eradicated Dong Zhuo and supported Emperor Xian. If Wang Yun hadn't listened to me, wouldn't I be in power in Chang'an now?

Lü Bu considers himself a kind person, and of course he knows how to reciprocate kindness.

Since Liu Bei is so knowledgeable and aware of his reputation and status, he doesn't mind complimenting the other party.

So, Lu Bu said something shocking next: "My dear brother, this is an exaggeration. My dear brother, he has achieved a little success in Xuzhou. In the past, Tao Gongzu was sitting in Xuzhou, but he was a traitor to Cao Cao." The people were displaced, and Xuzhou was devastated. However, under Xiandi's rule, I saw that Xuzhou was full of vitality and business. This is all due to Xiandi's governance of the place. , causing Cao Cao to return to Yanzhou, I am afraid that Xuzhou has already been captured by him, how can my virtuous brother be at ease at this time?"

After Lu Bu finished speaking, his face was full of color, and he felt that what he said was so perfect. .

Calling him a wise brother not only brought the relationship closer to each other, but also praised Liu Bei's achievements in governing Xuzhou. Finally, he also pointed out that the biggest contributor was actually himself, showing that he saved Liu Bei. With Xuzhou's great achievements in water and fire, it can be said that it is well-founded for advancement and retreat.

After finishing speaking, Lu Bu raised his head slightly, as if he was waiting for Liu Bei to hand over his hand to thank him.

Unexpectedly, the atmosphere in the field suddenly dropped to freezing point. Not to mention Xuzhou, even Lu Bu's own generals looked at each other in confusion.

Although the generals of the Bingzhou Army were led by Lu Bu to be extremely domineering, they still knew the situation they were in when they were in trouble. Even for the sake of their own situation in the future, they could not say such things.

As for Chen Gong, Zhang Miao and others, they were all shocked and speechless by Lu Bu.

Zhang Miao even wanted to yell at Lu Bu angrily, have you ever had a brain? It’s my family members who are emotionally trapped in Yongqiu, and it has nothing to do with you, right?

As for the Xuzhou side, the bad-tempered Zhang Fei, Gan Ning, Pan Zhang and others were already glaring at Lu Bu, looking like cannibals.

Even the more polite generals such as Guan Yu and Tai Shici were surprised that Lu Bu was so arrogant.

As for Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, Xun You, Guo Jia and others, they were either shocked, ridiculed, or ridiculed, with different expressions, but they had different ideas in their eyes.

Liu Bei, the person involved, looked quite ugly.

Everyone present felt less embarrassed than Liu Bei, who was the first person involved. He felt as if his hot face was against his cold butt. Even a person with high emotional intelligence like Liu Bei didn't know what to say to ease the situation.

“Marquis Wen’s words are wrong.”

A young man behind Liu Bei took two steps forward, cupped his hand, and said with disdain: "Marquis Wen has indeed helped Xuzhou, but I, Xuzhou, have already repaid this kindness. Why does Marquis Wen pretend to be ignorant? Could it be that he deceives me, Xuzhou, into being weak and benevolent?" Is it good? "

The person who spoke was none other than Liu Feng.

As soon as Liu Feng said these words, Lu Bu became unhappy. His handsome face suddenly sank, and a pair of starry eyes turned to Liu Feng with a look of displeasure.

Liu Feng's heart suddenly sank. After being targeted by Lu Bu, he actually felt a heavy feeling, which made him speechless.

“Where did you come from, boy, you have the right to speak here.”

After all, Lu Bu knew that this was Xuzhou, and had no intention of harming Liu Feng. Instead, he scolded: "Quickly retreat."

"Bold!"

"Slave with three surnames , you want to bully my nephew!”

“How dare you bully my master!”

Lü Bu thought he was being very kind, but he didn’t compete with this little guy. Unexpectedly, I just poked a hornet's nest.

The generals behind Liu Bei and Liu Feng cursed one after another. The three impatient Zhang Fei, Gan Ning and Pan Zhang immediately wanted to rush forward and teach each other a lesson.

Guan Yu, Tai Shi Ci, and Zhou Tai had quick eyes and quick hands. Each of them pulled one by one to control the three of them, but there were also angry looks on their faces.

Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and stared at Lu Bu closely, while Taishi Ci held Gan Ning with one hand and touched the bow with the other. Zhou Tai, who was holding Pan Zhang, looked at Liu Feng, obviously just waiting for Liu Feng's order.

The sound of these tiger generals also surprised Lu Bu and others.

I didn’t take a closer look before, but now I see that there are so many tiger generals under Liu Bei’s command.

Not to mention Guan and Zhang, they had already dealt with Lu Bu in the past, and they also accumulated fame in their fight against Dong.

Although Tai Shi Ci, Gan Ning, Pan Zhang, and Zhou Tai do not know their origins, each of them has the appearance of a bear and a tiger, and they must be fierce warriors.

If nothing else, the only people under Lu Bu who can match these four people are Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.

Zhang Liao is essentially a partner, not simply Lu Bu's subordinate, but a shareholder in nature. As for Gao Shun, to Lu Bu, he was actually more like a guest general, and his real lord was Zhang Miao.

Lü Bu, Chen Gong, Zhang Miao, and even Zhang Liao and Gao Shun all looked at Liu Feng again.

Previously, this young man was just following Liu Bei. Although he was very impressive, he was taciturn and didn't see anything extraordinary about him.

Unexpectedly, Lu Bu just made a gaffe and angered the entire team of Xuzhou generals.

It can be seen that this young man is quite prestigious in Xuzhou, and he is not simply relying on Liu Bei.

Chen Gong discovered even more carefully that Liu Bei turned a blind eye to this and just allowed Liu Feng to do what he wanted.

This scene made Chen Gong’s heart plummet to the bottom.

Liu Feng said: "Gentlemen, please calm down for the moment."

Chen Gong and Zhang Miao were surprised to find that Liu Feng just said a word, and these fierce warriors actually calmed down, but Chen Gong and Zhang Miao felt more and more something was wrong.

After appeasing Zhang Fei and others, Liu Feng bowed his hand towards Lu Bu: "I am Liu Feng, my father Xuzhou Mu. May I ask Lu Wenhou, didn't you receive my letter?"< br>
Hearing the word "Liu Feng", Lu Bu's face suddenly showed embarrassment.

Chen Gong, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun all looked shocked. Before the Battle of Dingtao, what Lu Bu said to them was still vivid in their minds. At that time, Lu Bu even laughed at Liu Feng for being incomprehensible.

"The way of using troops is to complement each other with false and true, and false and true can be switched at any time."

Liu Feng sneered and said: "I believe Marquis Lu Wen should know by now that there was no large army in Cao's camp at that time. Right? You only know that Cao Cao likes to take risks and use strange tricks, but you can't see that Cao Cao's careful preparation for a battle will result in overwhelming the enemy with more troops. How could he open the camp and not go out to fight? "

"I have heard that Marquis Lu Wen has been able to conquer and fight well for many years. I saw him today, but he is like this. No wonder he was expelled by Cao Cao."

"It's Er An who dares to insult me!"

Lü Bu was furious, and his whole body suddenly transformed into a man-eating tiger, and his terrifying aura tightly wrapped around Liu Feng.

For a moment, Liu Feng felt that his legs were faintly weak, and he might collapse to the ground at any time, and then he would make a big fool of himself.

Liu Feng suddenly became angry and bit the tip of his tongue. The severe pain directly activated the adrenaline in his body, allowing him to break away from Lu Bu's momentum and regain his strength.

The next moment, Liu Feng roared back without showing any signs of weakness: "Let's just discuss the matter!"

Lu Bu wanted to fall out on the spot, but suddenly a strong sense of crisis enveloped him. He couldn't help but duck down and take a look.

On the opposite side, they saw Tai Shi Ci and Gan Ning bending their bows and setting arrows, and the target was clearly him.

Guan, Zhang, Pan, and Zhou regained their ferocious tiger power and were about to charge forward.

"Stop it!"

Liu Bei finally spoke, and with such force, Taishi Ci, Gan Ning and others had to put down their bows and arrows, while Zhou Tai pulled Live with Pan Zhang.

Liu Bei took two steps forward, blocked Liu Feng behind him, and pretended to reprimand: "Marquis Lu Wen is your elder, how can you be so rude? Even if your elder is wrong, how can you question it? ? Why don’t you leave quickly?”

“Yes, father”

Liu Feng bowed respectfully and retreated into the crowd.

Guo Jia whispered to Xun You: "Our young master from Zhou Mu is really sharp-tongued, but his courage is not bad."

Xun You said leisurely: "More than that. It’s not bad. If you and I were to change places with the young master, we would probably have collapsed to the ground.”

Guo Jia wanted to refute, but if he thought about it carefully, his body really couldn’t bear it. Lü Bu was so angry that he immediately changed the subject: "But the young master did it too obviously to anger Lü Bu." Xun You nodded, and then shook his head.

Guo Jia suddenly nodded thoughtfully.

What Xun You means is that he agrees with Guo Jia's view that Liu Feng's anger is indeed too obvious, but the deep meaning behind Liu Feng is actually not obvious, at least he, Xun You, has not seen it yet.

Guo Jia's subsequent nod was in recognition of Xun You's idea, because he did not see Liu Feng's true intentions behind the scenes.

Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong were also whispering at this time: "Lü Bu, Wu Fu'er, although he has made great contributions to the country, is arrogant and rude. If you can reprimand him righteously and sternly, you will not insult our reputation in Xuzhou. "

Zhang Hong nodded: "But I think the young master has a back-up plan, and this anger is just a trigger."

"Indeed."

Zhang Zhao nodded in agreement: "It's just that Zhao couldn't see it."

Zhang Hong had some thoughts: "Maybe he is a little angry at his father."

Zhang Zhao's informal smile actually showed a faint smile, and he nodded: "What Zigang said makes sense."

In the crowd behind, Brother Zhuge He also whispered quietly.

"What? Master, are you singing a double act?"

A flash of shock flashed across Zhuge Jin's calm face, and then he calmed down again, but there was no thought in his heart: "How did you know?"

"Young Master and I have talked about some things about Yanzhou."

Zhuge Liang replied in a low voice: "Ming Gong is also very worried about Lu Bu coming to vote, but he cannot refuse. At this time, you must Someone needs to come out to make a fool of himself, and this person needs to speak with weight, and it is best to make Ming Gong helpless."

At this point, Zhuge Liang laughed softly: "After thinking about it, I think. Isn’t it the young master who is most suitable?”

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Jin nodded slowly: "I see, but Ah Liang, you can't leak these words at will. The master is trusting you to discuss these things with you, and you can't betray the trust of the master."
< br>Zhuge Liang immediately replied seriously: "Don't worry, brother, Liang will definitely keep it in mind."

Zhuge Jin hesitated for a moment, and then added: "It's best not to even tell me about it in the future. Confidential matters, there are many If one person knows, there is an extra risk."

Zhuge Liang admired his brother's caution and explained: "Yes, brother, but this time the young master has spoken first. If Ziyu asks, Liang will know. All said, the young master also praised his brother for his steady nature and cautiousness, and that he was a man who could take on important tasks."

Zhuge Jin was satisfied, especially when he heard Liu Feng praising him. Even though he had a calm personality, he could not suppress it. Keep the corners of your mouth raised high.

After Liu Feng walked back to the crowd in front, Liu Bei regained his calm expression, and then greeted Zhang Miao, Chen Gong, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others in turn, and sincerely invited him: "Everyone has come from afar. I am tired and have prepared a residence in the city. After you have washed away the dust, I will hold a banquet to entertain you."

Zhang Miao said with emotion: "I have come to surrender now, but I don't want you to be more affectionate. "Brother Meng Zhuo, why did you say this?" Liu Bei took Zhang Miao's hand and comforted him: "You are ranked among the top eight chefs in the world." , I have admired him for a long time, and seeing him today is a blessing that I can never ask for."

Zhang Miao was even more excited, holding Liu Bei's hand and crying bitterly. Runnyin: "The envoy is really a loyal person. I wish I could not have met the envoy sooner."

Chen Gong also sighed with emotion.

There was even an incredible reverie flashing through my mind. If the person who welcomed him was Liu Bei, he might not be able to succeed, but he would still be better than Lu Bu, right?

But Chen Gong then laughed bitterly. At that time, Liu Bei was just an empty shell of the Pingyuan Prime Minister. He had even lost the Pingyuan Kingdom. How could he compare with Lu Bu?

After all, Lu Bu still had the Bingzhou Army under his command, with dozens of brave generals. He also had the right to kill Dong Zhuo. He was also a general worshiped by the imperial court. He was given the title of Marquis Wen and opened the government with three divisions.

Just looking at Yanzhou, which is dilapidated, and then looking at Xuzhou, where people live and work in peace and contentment, it is really a world of difference.

Later, Liu Bei personally escorted Lu Bu and others into the guest house. The three to four thousand people Lu Bu brought with him were placed in military buildings outside the city, and they were also given drinks and meals.

There is no meat, and even his own family can't afford meat. Liu Feng is reluctant to give it to the defeated generals like Yanzhou.

As soon as Liu Bei left, a fierce quarrel broke out in the guest house.

Chen Gong scolded Lu Bu for being rude, but Lu Bu felt that he was not wrong at all and that it was Liu Feng's child who was making trouble unreasonably.

Zhang Liao leaned against the door and looked out. He knew Lu Bu's personality very well. He knew that it was useless to just talk. If the other party was willing to listen, how could he end up like this? situation.

Gao Shun stood next to Zhang Miao, frowning as he watched the dispute between Chen Gong and Lu Bu. He wanted to persuade them, but couldn't think of a way.

As for Zhang Miao, he sat in his seat and was lost in thought. He was indifferent to the quarrel between Chen Gong and Lu Bu and concentrated on his own affairs.

Lü Bu said angrily and dissatisfied: "Gongtai, Liu Feng, my son, bullied me like this. I didn't care about him. He is already an adult. It's too late for Liu Xuande to thank me. How can he be dissatisfied?"

Chen Gong almost wanted to vomit blood when he heard this: "Marquis Wen, we are father and son. Liu Feng is the father, can Liu Bei blame him for being too filial?"

"Besides, what Liu Feng said is true. Why not? Not only was there no ambush in the Cao army's camp at that time, there were not even many soldiers and horses. There were only a thousand men. If he was asked by his filial father to lead a thousand men as a vanguard to test the troops, Cao Cao would have no choice but to abandon the camp. What else can be done? The siege of Dingtao can be solved immediately. We are still in Dongjin City, not Tancheng."

Lu Bu's face turned red when Chen Gong said that. After that incident, he did learn that there were actually no soldiers and horses in Cao Cao's camp, and the defenders on the city walls were all pretended women and children.

"Everything Bu said is true, and it is not a lie. How did that kid know about Dingtao in Tancheng? It was just a random misunderstanding. Why should Gongtai worry too much."

But Lu Bu still frowned, and after a moment he responded: "I think Liu Xuande is a loyal and honest man. I expect him to be impartial and upright, and there is no need to worry too much about public affairs."

Chen Gong was so angry that he simply stopped talking and found a seat to sit down and sulk.

Chen Gong stopped talking, but Lu Bu became embarrassed. He coughed twice, trying to relieve himself, but Chen Gong ignored him at all.

Therefore, Lu Bu could only sit down angrily.

For a moment, the main hall fell into silence.

I don’t know how long it took, but the silence in the main hall was suddenly broken by Lu Bu’s voice.

"Meng Zhuo, Gongtai, Wenyuan. I see that Xuzhou has strong soldiers and horses. If we ask Liu Bei to borrow troops and grain, can we fight back to Yanzhou?"

It is not difficult to see from this. Lu Bu really doesn't have a good impression of Gao Shun. He insisted on skipping Gao Shun among the people present. This also shows how low Lu Bu's emotional intelligence is.

Hearing this, Chen Gong, Zhang Miao, and Zhang Liao all turned around to see Lu Bu. Could it be that this guy had come up with some good idea?

Chen Gong considered it and said: "How are you going to ask Liu Bei to borrow troops and food?"

Zhang Miao, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and others were also staring at Lu Bu. Could it be that this guy has a brain? Already?

Lü Bu showed doubts: "Liu Xuande is a kind man, and he values ​​us so much. We are just borrowing troops, so what's the problem?" Everyone fell silent.

After a while, Chen Gong stood up and said: "There is a banquet in the evening. We must not be rude. Gong went down to freshen up first. Please accompany me."

Zhang Miao, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun followed closely behind, and they also Say goodbye and leave.

In the blink of an eye, Lu Bu was the only one left.

He was still a little confused and didn't understand why Chen Gong and the others ran away.

Lu Bu was left out, and Liu Feng was also left out.

The only difference is that Liu Feng didn't offend anyone and was left out, but Liu Bei was in a bad mood and didn't want to talk.

"Father, you didn't expect Lu Bu to be so imprudent, right?"

Liu Bei let out a long sigh, shook his head and sighed: "Hey..., as a father, I really don't have any sense of proportion." I thought that this Lu Bu would be such a person."

There were only Liu Bei and his son, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei in the room.

Liu Feng did intend to keep Tai Shici and others, but after thinking about it, he held back his thoughts.

What does this mean, fighting in the ring with dad?

Although Liu Bei may not think too much about it, he still has to sit in his position. Otherwise, wouldn't he be as filial as Lu Fengxian?
