The Strongest Lu Bu: Sweeping the World

If there are secret objections, Lu Bu will have great strength, making these people put away their small thoughts and have to obey his orders.

Lu Bu secretly went to Langye, and Jia Xu expressed his concerns. On this occasion, Jia Xu was considered a well-known figure in Xuzhou.

The notorious Lu Bu affected Jia Xu a lot, and many literati even criticized Jia Xu. At this time, even if Jia Xu broke away from Lu Bu's control and went to other princes to rule , and don't expect to be taken seriously.

After a period of contact, Jia Xu discovered that Lu Bu was not what outsiders thought. He treated him with respect, and his opinions could also be valued by Lu Bu. Such a monarch might not be able to do something. .

Langye is located in the south of Xuzhou, bordering Qingzhou and Yanzhou. Zang Ba established himself as a mercenary in Langye, and everyone in Xuzhou knew that he did not obey the orders of the governor's office.

Zang Ba is a military commander with means, otherwise it would be impossible to get to where he is today.

The officials of Langye dare not obey the orders of the governor's office, but they will carry out Zang Ba's orders to the letter.

Although the Yellow Turban Rebellion has passed for several years, there are many Yellow Turbans in and out of Xuzhou. The reason why the imperial court set up state herds at the beginning was to stabilize these states.

The Yellow Turbans are difficult to truly eradicate, and there are so many poor people. When they are desperate, they will fall into bandits, such as the Yellow Turbans of Heishan in Jizhou.

Kaiyang is the ruling place of Langya. Lv Bu followed Lv Bu in the caravan, constantly looking at the surrounding scene.

The prosperity of Kaiyang is far behind that of Pengcheng, and some houses on both sides of the street are even dilapidated.

Zang Ba is a general, and his ability to govern the local area must be much worse than that of civil officials, but the soldiers patrolling the city are not weak in their aura.

"General, there are only a few days until the Governor's Mansion gives an order, and I don't know if Marquis Wen dares to come to Kaiyang." Sun Guandao.

Zang Ba laughed and said: "From the point of view of this general, Marquis Wen must come to Kaiyang, what a hero Wen Marquis is, if he dares not come after agreeing, it will make people laugh at him."

"Since the general admires Marquis Wen so much, why doesn't he take advantage of the situation and seek refuge with Marquis Wen?" Wu Dun asked suspiciously.

Zang Ba said: "This general has thousands of troops under his command, why should he take refuge in such a simple way? If so, wouldn't it make him despise him?"

"What the general said is very true. Even if the general does not take refuge in Marquis Wen, the elite soldiers in the army are more than enough to stop Marquis Wen's army." Sun Guan said confidently.

Yin Li, who had been silent all the time, said: "Wen Hou is now among the princes, but he has a very bad reputation. Many princes even denounced Wen Hou. If the general takes refuge in Wen Hou, wouldn't he suffer the hatred of the princes of the world?"

"Does this general have a good reputation if he doesn't rely on Wenhou? You all know what the officials in Xuzhou are like. Officials from other counties want this general to take the lead in fighting against Wenhou. Let them do what they want." Zang Ba snorted coldly.

Lu Bu is well-known, and his bravery is beyond doubt, but Lu Bu's reputation is not good, which will indeed discourage many people who want to seek refuge.

"Someone outside the mansion claims to be the general's old friend, and wants to see the general." A guard stepped forward and said in a low voice.

Zang Ba said: "Let this person in."

"General, could it be that Marquis Wen is here?" Wu Dun asked.

Zang Ba nodded and said, "Maybe."

"The last general will make some preparations in secret." Wu Dun said, Lu Bu is a world-renowned military general, and he should be more cautious when facing such characters.

After a while, Lu Bu in ordinary clothes walked into the room.

With a height of more than nine feet, and a handsome face, he gives people a sense of prestige without anger, and there is a faint killing intent on his body, which makes people dare not despise him in the slightest.

"Marquis Wen." Zang Ba quickly stepped forward and saluted. Although he had never met Lu Bu, he could tell from Lu Bu's aura.

Lu Bu nodded and said, "It's not easy to see General Zang."

Chapter 39 Discuss, Zang Ba takes refuge

"You made Marquis Wen laugh." Zang Ba showed embarrassment.

Wu Dun and the others were sizing up Lu Bu in secret, daring to come to Kaiyang single-handedly, which is enough to prove Lu Bu's courage. At this time, Zang Ba did not express his attitude. Go out from Langya?

Put the same thing on them, do they dare to do this?

"Please, Marquis Wen!" Zang Ba gestured with his hand.

Lv Bu took the top seat with a golden sword. He is the Xuzhou shepherd conferred by the imperial court, and it is also appropriate to sit on the top seat when he comes to the officials under his rule.

Sun Guan frowned slightly. Since Zang Ba came to Kaiyang, this position has always belonged to Zang Ba. Every time Tao Qian's envoy came to see Zang Ba, he was very respectful and dared not make any mistakes.

Zang Ba laughed and said, "Marquis Wen's courage will be admired in the end."

"At the invitation of General Zang, the Marquis himself will come here. I have heard a lot about General Zang's reputation since he arrived in Xuzhou," Lu Bu said.

Being in Kaiyang directly revealed his identity, which was a lot of challenges for Lu Bu. If Zang Ba didn't play his cards according to common sense, he would be in danger. It's not that Lu Bu was not prepared in secret when he went to Kaiyang.

Wang Yuezao had already led a hundred swordsmen under his command to lurk in Kaiyang City, and if there was any movement in Zang Ba's mansion, they would rush in immediately.

"Wu Dun, Sun Guan, Yin Li, the three are famous generals under the command of the last general." Zang Ba introduced.

The three stepped forward to salute.

Lu Bu said straight to the point: "General Zang must have known about the intention of the Marquis coming here. I wonder what General Zang thinks about it?"

Naturally, the discussions between generals will not be like literati, who drink and talk freely before expressing their purpose.

"It's an honor for Marquis Wen to come, but there is one condition for the general." Zang overbearing.

"But it doesn't matter."

Zang Badao: "I've heard that Marquis Wen is highly skilled in martial arts and famous all over the world. If Marquis Wen can defeat the last general, the last general will definitely take refuge in him."

Wen Wu is the first and Wu Wu is the second. Zang Ba is also a proud general. During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zang Ba made a lot of contributions and was able to become the captain of the cavalry.

Wu Dun and the others showed excitement when they heard the words, they knew Zang Ba's martial arts well, even if the three joined forces, it would be impossible to defeat Zang Ba.

"Okay, Ben Hou agrees." Lu Bu said lightly.

Defeating Zang Ba will get Zang Ba's support, which is not a loss-making business for Lu Bu.

There is a spacious place in the mansion, where ordinary Zang Ba practiced martial arts. Even after he gained a certain status in Xuzhou, Zang Ba never relaxed his martial arts.

An ordinary painting halberd, in the hands of Lu Bu, Zang Ba and others felt a huge threat. At this time, Lu Bu was like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath.

Zang Ba is good at using long swords. Many enemies in the past died under his long swords.

"Kill!" Zang Ba yelled, and hurried towards Lu Bu.

When Zang Ba was only a few steps away from Lu Bu, the painting halberd in Lu Bu's hand moved.

Raising the halberd, Zang Ba blocked the knife that Zang Ba was determined to win.

Zang Ba's heart was shocked, the power transmitted through the long knife was not small, the most important thing was that Lu Bu had just waved his hand casually, with such power, if he was on a war horse, it would be a terrifying existence.

With a violent shout, the long knife went towards Lu Bu's chest again.

Blocking Zang Ba's halberd, he moved suddenly and blocked the long knife again. The agility of the halberd surprised Zang Ba slightly.

The speed of the two shots was extremely fast, and Wu Dun and the others opened their mouths in surprise. At this time, Zang Ba gave the three of them completely different feelings.

The sound of weapons colliding came from time to time, and in the blink of an eye, it was ten close.

Lu Bu laughed and said, "General Zang is good at martial arts, and he was going to attack next."

Fangcai focused on Zang Ba's attack, and Lu Bu was passively defending. It was also Lu Bu who wanted to see how Zang Ba's martial arts were.

With a cold light on the halberd, he headed towards Zang Ba.

Zang Ba's complexion changed slightly, the speed of drawing the halberd was too fast, with enough strength, Zang Ba's long knife in his hand went up to meet him.

However, after the painting halberd collided with the long knife, it did not stop its attack. Lu Bu launched a stormy attack on Zang Ba.

Zang Ba was facing tremendous pressure, and every time he collided with the painting halberd, there would be a huge force, making his hands holding the long knife tremble slightly.

After ten rounds, Huaji swung the long saber away, staying five inches away from Zang Ba's chest.

Sun Guan and the others stepped forward one after another, showing their weapons.

Zang Ba felt Ling Lie's murderous intent, waved his hand to signal the three to retreat, clasped his fists with flushed face, and said, "Marquis Wen is very skilled in martial arts, and the general will admire him, but from now on, Marquis Wen has an order, and the general will not hesitate to die. "

Lu Bu laughed and said, "General Zang is skilled in swordsmanship, so he must be a fierce general on the battlefield."

Wu Dun and the others stepped forward to salute one after another. If they had doubts about Lu Bu's martial arts before, after this battle, they only looked up to Lu Bu.

Zang Ba's face was not flushed because of failure, it was because when fighting against Lu Bu, every move was made with all his strength, while Lu Bu, on the other hand, was not flushed or out of breath, and was calm and composed.

"With the help of all of you, why don't you worry about being able to rule Xuzhou?" Lu Bu laughed.

After returning to the room, they sat down again. They no longer had the slightest dislike for Lu Bu sitting at the top. The strong should be respected.

The food and wine were brought up for the servants, and the five of them drank and chatted.

The day after Lu Bu left for Langye, Zang Ba led an army of three thousand to Pengcheng.

When Zang Ba's move was heard, the officials in Langya counties couldn't sit still. Even the Langya overlord decided to go to Xuzhou, so why didn't they go to meet the new state shepherd?

For a while, Xuzhou was shaken, and many officials did not understand why the arrogant Zang Ba chose to join the notorious Lu Bu. However, Zang Ba made his statement, and their situation became a little passive. With power and thousands of elite soldiers, who is not afraid, and if Zang Ba opposes Lu Bu, it will be more convenient for them to have other actions in secret.

Zang Ba's defection to Lu Bu is not good news for officials in Xuzhou. Even the powerful Zang Ba bowed his head. Some officials from counties and counties quietly went to Pengcheng. There is a catastrophe.

Some officials are not optimistic about Lu Bu gaining a firm foothold in Xuzhou. Even if Lu Bu has the support of Xuzhou officials now, what will happen if the princes invade in the future?Even Yuan Shao, the former leader of the princes and alliance, denounced Lu Bu. Once he recuperated, how could he let Lu Bu go.

Chapter 40

How powerful Dong Zhuo is, with more than [-] troops under his command, they still can't hold back the sharpness of the princes, let alone a mere Lu Bu.

In line with the principle that a hero does not suffer immediate losses, officials from all over the country rushed to Pengcheng to pay their respects to Xinzhou Mu.

Xuzhou officials went to Pengcheng, which was of great significance to the stability of Lu Bu's position in Xuzhou.

There has not been much change in the appointment of officials from various places. Zang Ba was promoted to Minister of Langya, in charge of Langya affairs.

After hearing about Lu Bu's actions in Xuzhou, the feudal lords looked sideways, and Tao Qian, who was in Yanzhou, yelled at him even more. Xuzhou was originally under his rule, but now he wants to rely on others, and even Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou, obediently recommended him Lv Bu is Xuzhou's herdsman, and compensates for rice, weapons, and armor. This is a shame for the officials of the big man.

The situation is worse than others, Tao Qian can do nothing but curse and call on the literati of the world to conquer Lu Bu.

For Xuzhou's crisis, Lu Bu naturally knew that if he wanted to survive among the princes and gain their approval, he would use war. He would use the painting halberd in his hand to tell the princes of the world that if they didn't recognize it, they would have to fight. beaten.

In the eyes of the princes, he is a vulgar warrior, and Lu Bu will use the means of a general to convince the princes.

All counties and counties in Xuzhou, except for the standing soldiers and horses, all went to Pengcheng, but within half a month, the number of troops outside Pengcheng reached 2.

Except for Zang Ba's relatively elite army, Lu Bu was very disappointed with the soldiers of the other counties and counties. If he relied on these soldiers, it would be more difficult to win the battle against the princes than to reach the sky.

After successive assessments, 2 people were reduced to 6000.

6000 people, divided into eight divisions, led by Zhang Liao, Wei Xu, Hao Meng, Cao Xing, Cheng Lian, Hou Cheng, Song Xian, and Gao Shun.

With the addition of Langya's 2 troops, the entire Xuzhou force is close to 2, and soldiers will be recruited later, so that Pengcheng's army for combat can reach [-].

The manufacture of weapons and armor is also in full swing.

"Xiu'er really looks like a fairy in this dress." Lu Bu, who was busy, saw Xiu'er's clothes, and his eyes lit up.

Just judging from her figure and appearance, it is hard to imagine that the wonderful woman in front of her has just reached her prime.

Xiu'er's face turned red slightly, "Brother, don't make fun of the little girl."

"Haha, how can this be a joke? Looking at Xuzhou, who can compare with Xiu'er?" Lu Bu laughed.

Pretty face flushed, Lu Bu's praise made her heart beat faster, since the last time they went to the market together, her relationship with Lu Bu has become a lot closer, calling Lu Bu "big brother" when no one is around, let Xiu'er find her family a feeling of.

"Brother..." Xiu'er shook Lu Bu's arm.

"Okay, let's not talk about it for my brother." Lu Bu said.

If the generals in the army saw Lu Bu with such a gentle side, I don't know how they would feel.

"What is Big Brother busy with?" Xiu'er couldn't help asking.

Lu Bu said: "This thing is amazing. If it is made, you can get inexhaustible money. When the time comes, I will make some for Xiu'er myself for the brotherhood."

"Well, thank you, big brother." Xiu'er whispered.

Xiu'er couldn't see Lu Bu's concern for her. Having lost her family since she was a child, she liked the feeling of being in the governor's mansion very much.

"In front of a brother, there is no need to be so polite." Lu Bu said.

"Brother, what is this thing for?" Xiu'er moved closer like a curious baby.

A delicate fragrance slid over the tip of the nose, and the fragrance on Xiu'er's body gave people a feeling of fascination.

"It's used for bathing. After using it, there will be a scent left, but Xiu'er definitely doesn't need it." Lu Bu laughed.

"Why?"
