At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty

"Ugh……"

Zhao Liang sighed and shook his head.

"But what exactly is Lu Bu going to do? The governor actually gave him three thousand soldiers?"

Zhao Liang didn't pay attention to Han Hao's question, and said in a low voice, "I only know the general idea, but I don't know the specific situation, but I heard people say that Lu Bu seems to be going to Chenliu, and the rations given to Lu Bu by the governor are also the same. According to the route to Chenliu."

"Chen Liu?"

Han Hao frowned: "What is Lu Bu going to Chenliu for? Chenliu County is a county under the jurisdiction of Yanzhou, and Lu Bu has no official position in Yanzhou. What is the purpose of leading troops to Yanzhou?"

"I really don't know that."

Zhao Liang shook his head: "It seems that Zhang Mengzhuo and Lu Bu are old, and Lu Bu is probably going to seek refuge with Zhang Mengzhuo?"

"Take so many soldiers to join Zhang Mengzhuo?"

Han Hao looked puzzled: "I heard that the governor of Yanzhou and the governors of the counties had previously presented Guo Qingzhou to supervise the military affairs of Qing and Yanzhou, and Chenliu County was naturally among them. Don't you care? Allow?"

"Who knows, but Guo Qingzhou is Qingzhou Mu, not Yanzhou Mu, so what Zhang Mengzhuo wants to do is fine in name."

Zhao Liang shook his head: "Maybe it's a good relationship, let Lu Bu stay for a while?"

Although Zhao Liang said so, Han Hao firmly expressed that he did not believe it.

"Just to stay for a while?"

"Otherwise, what else can we do? Could it be that Lu Bu still wants to find another chance to attack Yanzhou? Guo Qingzhou is good at fighting, and Lu Bu was once his defeated general, so he dare not."

Zhao Liang waved his hand: "And the Fujun doesn't know how powerful Guo Qingzhou is? If Guo Qingzhou is really angered and Guo Qingzhou leads troops to attack, how can we be opponents with a mere county?"

Zhao Liang thought it was very funny and didn't take it seriously at all.

Zhao Liang didn't take it seriously, but Han Hao was frightened.

Needless to say, he really didn't think this way before, but now, when Zhao Liang said this, Han Hao's heart started beating violently.

"Could it be that……"

With his thoughts together, Han Hao can no longer take it lightly, and always feels that this matter is very serious and cannot be regarded as non-existent.

After Zhao Liang left, Han Hao thought about it, and felt that the ominous premonition in his heart was getting stronger and stronger, so he immediately ordered the servants at home to tidy up his luggage step by step.

Then, just after dawn and the gate of the city was opened, Han Hao left his hometown with dozens of family members, and rode his horse to Dongjun.

He had heard that the new governor of Dongjun was Guo Peng's brother-in-law, Cao Cao Cao Mengde, a close confidant among his cronies.

It's too late to contact Guo Peng now. If you contact Cao Mengde, you may be able to make some preparations in case of emergencies. In any case, you must always be prepared, even if you are not prepared.

Chapter 278 .270 Seven Mengzhuo won't blame me, will he?

After a meal and a drink, they brought in 6000 soldiers and horses, as well as food and supplies, and expanded the army to [-]. The strength initially recovered, and Lu Bu's confidence was greatly enhanced.

Then, after discussing with the people under his command, he went south from Hanoi County, entered the territory of Henan Yin, marched to Kaifeng, turned east, entered Chenliu County, and met Zhang Miao.

Zhang Miao was a little disturbed when he learned that Lu Bu had brought an army of 6000 people to visit him. He thought that Lu Bu had come to attack him under Yuan Shao's order.

Soon, Zhang Miao received a letter from Lu Bu, who scolded Yuan Shao for crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.

He said that Yuan Shao drove him away from Jizhou, and he had no choice but to seek refuge in Hanoi, and finally decided to go south to Jingzhou to seek refuge with Liu Biao, and stopped by to see Zhang Miao for his kind treatment.

Lv Bu stationed his army some distance away from Chenliu County, and then he brought his personal guard Gao Shun and a few personal soldiers to meet Zhang Miao.

Seeing this, Zhang Miao felt a little more at ease.

Zhang Chao, Zhang Miao's younger brother, was in Chenliu County at this time.

After the disbandment of the Dongdong League, he never returned to Guangling, but stayed in Zhang Miao's Chenliu County to help Zhang Miao.

Because Zhang Miao felt that he could not handle the situation alone in Chenliu County.

Especially after Guo Peng entered Yanzhou to take charge of Yanzhou, although there was no conflict with Guo Peng in the past, the relationship was not good.

Guo Peng sent someone to comfort him, and still let him be the prefect of Chenliu, and did not interfere with his territory, which made him feel a little relieved.

Now he likes to make friends in Chenliu.

After creating a reputation as one of the eight chefs, I feel more and more important to have many friends, especially in troubled times, one more friend is one more way, isn't it?

So even if it is Lu Bu, he is willing to communicate, as it is an extra way.

Now facing Lu Bu's visit again, Zhang Miao felt that it was okay, but Zhang Chao was a little suspicious.

"If Lu Bu wants to go to Jingzhou, he will go to Jingzhou. If he wants to visit Elder Brother, he will visit Elder Brother. What does it mean to bring soldiers from Jingzhou to visit Elder Brother?"

After reading Lu Bu's greeting post, Zhang Miao no longer doubted it.

"Don't think of Lu Fengxian as a jackal and tiger."

Zhang Miao comforted his younger brother: "Lu Fengxian is also a person who has made contributions to the country. Before we drank and chatted, Lu Fengxian was also a bold person. It should be regarded as many contacts and friends. If he gains a foothold in Jingzhou, we will not Is there another way?"

"Say so."

Zhang Chao frowned and said, "I always feel uneasy."

"Haha, I think too much."

Zhang Miao comforted his younger brother, and sent someone to invite Lu Bu to the city to meet him, and held a banquet in honor of Lu Bu.

Zhang Chao felt uneasy in private, so he selected strong men from the army to enter Chenliu for defense.

But just as Zhang Miao thought, at the banquet, Lu Bu scolded Yuan Shao for crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, saying that he had fought for Yuan Shao several times, defeated the black bandit Zhang Yan, and helped Yuan Shao stabilize Jizhou. Walk.

Is this something that humans can do?

While drinking, while listening to Lu Bu scolding Yuan Shao, Zhang Miao felt very happy. Not only did he and Yuan Shao have conflicts in political positions, but also their relationship broke down in private.

He heard that Yuan Shao hated him and wanted to send assassins to kill him several times, but he was afraid of Guo Peng's attack and dared not do it. Hearing what Lu Bu said now, he felt that Yuan Shao was like a rabbit whose tail couldn't grow any longer.

"Yuan Benchu ​​did not serve the emperor, and his wolfish ambitions are clearly revealed. In my opinion, all the princes of the world should gather together to attack Yuan Shao. Unfortunately, the people of the world fear his title of four generations and three princes, are afraid of being condemned, and dare not seek thieves. It is very abominable. !"

Zhang Miao hated Yuan Shao deeply, so now he can't stop cursing.

Lu Bu kept scolding Yuan Shao, and the two sang together, which was quite interesting.

Zhang Chao watched Lu Bu and Zhang Miao sing the oboe while drinking, then turned his eyes and saw Gao Shun, the personal guard brought by Lu Bu.

He had no expression on his face, didn't speak, didn't drink, and only ate meat. While eating meat, he watched Lu Bu who sang double reeds with Zhang Miao, and observed the situation of the entire banquet hall by the way, looking quite vigilant.

Nothing special, he is a relatively competent personal guard.

It is estimated that he is also a member of the elite guard group who charged along with Lu Bu.

Zhang Chao felt a little relieved, and didn't think there was anything wrong.

After that, for three consecutive days, Zhang Miao held a banquet and invited Lv Bu, and the two ate and drank very happily.

Lu Bu, who had drunk too much, still slept carelessly in Zhang Miao's mansion, asked Zhang Miao for a woman to play with, and even brought Zhang Miao along, not at all looking like he was going to do something big.

Zhang Chao gradually stopped doubting Lu Bu, and felt that Lu Bu was just a shameless person, and nothing else was a big deal.

After eating and drinking at Zhang Miao's house for four days, on the fifth day, Lu Bu returned to the barracks to rectify, and invited Zhang Miao to his camp on the sixth day, and he also held a banquet to thank Zhang Miao for his hospitality. He is about to leave Chenliu and go south to Jingzhou.

Zhang Miao readily agreed.

On the sixth day, Zhang Miao straightened up his clothes and was about to take some gifts to Lv Bu's barracks to bid farewell to Lv Bu. Zhang Chao felt a little uneasy and hoped that Zhang Miao would bring more soldiers and horses.

"Feng Xian treated me with sincerity, he only brought dozens of soldiers with him when he came to my house, do I have to bring all of Chen Liu's soldiers and horses to see off Feng Xian?"

Zhang Miao was very dissatisfied: "When making friends, don't be suspicious, hurt others and hurt yourself!"

Zhang Chao had nothing to say, so he had no choice but to stop interfering and stay in Chenliu County to handle some county affairs on Zhang Miao's behalf.

Zhang Miao cheerfully came to Lv Bu's barracks with a big cart and a small cart, and Lv Bu brought people all the way to meet Zhang Miao.

Seeing that Zhang Miao had brought so many gifts, Lu Bu was very happy. He held Zhang Miao's hand and laughed and chatted with him.

Zhang Miao's accompanying guards were also given wine and food by Lu Bu's people, and they ate and drank in other places, very happy.

After drinking for three rounds, Lu Bu got down from the main seat and sat beside Zhang Miao, holding Zhang Miao's hand with a look of regret on his face.

"Meng Zhuo, you are such a kind person. Bu came out of Chang'an, wandered all the way, and was driven everywhere. Only you are willing to receive me and buy me a drink. You are so kind..."

Lu Bu leaned on Zhang Miao, rested his head on Zhang Miao's shoulder, closed his eyes, and looked drunk, as if he was drunk.

Zhang Miao chuckled, held Lu Bu's hand, and said, "It's my good fortune to befriend a strong man like Feng Xian. Zhang has no other skills, he just likes to befriend strong men."

"Hahahaha, Meng Zhuo is right! I am a strong man!"

Lu Bu opened his eyes and looked at the top of the handsome tent: "Meng Zhuo, do you know? Whenever you treat me a little bit less thoughtfully, I will feel better... But you treat me so kindly, it's just Like Ding Jianyang, I feel bad.

Meng Zhuo, everyone in the world calls me a thief who betrayed the Lord, but they don't know how many times I dream at night, I can dream of Ding Jianyang questioning me, asking me why I killed him, and asking me if he has treated me badly , so that I want to kill him.

I know, no, he didn't treat me badly, but I can't help it. If I don't kill Ding Jianyang, I will die. Where should I take Luoyang?Meng Zhuo, tell me, am I doing the right thing? "

Zhang Miao didn't seem to realize anything, just let out a long sigh.

"Under that situation, where is right or wrong? There are only two choices: life or death. Feng Xian chooses life and is criticized by others. You can put yourself in the shoes of those people. If you were those people, you might not be able to do better than Feng. It’s better first, they’re just lucky not to be in Luoyang.”

Hearing what Zhang Miao said, Lu Bu let out a long sigh, sat up straight, and held Zhang Miao's hand tightly.

"Meng Zhuo, you understand me, you really understand me. How can I not feel pain in my heart when I do that kind of thing? It's just that I can't help it. I want to live. Ding Jianyang will forgive me, right?"

"If Ding Gong has knowledge, he must understand Fengxian's difficulties, right?"

Zhang Miao drank too much wine and felt a little confused.

"Then Meng Zhuo will also understand my difficulties?"

Lu Bu stared at Zhang Miao.

Zhang Miao smiled when he heard this.

"I naturally understand Fengxian's difficulties."

"Meng Zhuo won't blame me, will he?"

Lu Bu asked again.

"Hahahaha, how could I blame Fengxian?"

Zhang Miao patted the back of Lu Bu's hand and laughed.

"That's good, that's good, hahahahaha!"

Lu Bu laughed a few times, looking at Zhang Miao, who was quite drunk, a strange light flashed in his eyes, his face was not even half drunk.

Chapter 279

In the afternoon, Zhang Chao finished some of his official duties and felt a little sleepy, so he took a nap in the prefect's mansion.

After falling into a drowsy sleep, he was suddenly awakened by a chaotic and noisy sound.

"Who is making noise outside!!"

Sleeping in a daze, half dreaming and half awake, Zhang Chao's head was in a state of chaos, he managed to get up, rubbed his eyes, and walked out with a displeased expression on his face.

After walking a few steps, the door was knocked open suddenly, and one of his personal guards stumbled in, saw Zhang Chao, and hurriedly shouted: "General! It's not good, Lu Bu! Lu Bu attacked the city!"

"Lv Bu attacked the city? What did you say... what?! Lv Bu attacked the city?!"

Zhang Chao's eyes, which were still in a daze, suddenly widened.

"Yes, General, Lu Bu attacked the city!"

"Go and defend the city! What are you doing here?!"

Zhang Chao rushed out immediately.

His head was in a mess and he hadn't cleared his mind yet, but Zhang Chao knew that what he should do now was to guard the city.

"The city has been breached!"

The soldier shouted.

Zhang Chao froze on the spot, looking back at the soldiers in disbelief.
