It's already late at night.
The lights in the Pei County Government Office are still brightly lit.
The guards were placed around the county government, and from time to time, soldiers wearing squids and armoured armours were seen patrolling around the county government.
The sound of horse hooves came from the end of the long street, and a team of iron cavalry came from far to near and quickly.
The cavalry team stopped in front of the county government office, and the leader was a big man who jumped off his horse and was eight feet tall. He looked heroic and strong, and walked up the steps.
"Wen Yuan, you are here!"
A man came out from the gate of the county government. He was not tall, about 175 cm long, and looked solid and sturdy, with a look of honesty.
He was dressed simply, and his robe had been washed off and looked quite old.
However, this person exuded a solid aura and bowed to the big man who was lifting up. "Mr. Wen and Mr. Chen Gong have been waiting for a long time."
The big man glanced around and nodded.
"Xiao Gong, please lead the way."
The two walked into the county government gate one after another. When the Han Dynasty saw that the county government was also very cautious, he was surprised and hurriedly said softly: "Xiao Gong, what happened? Wen Hou was so hurried to attract me from Hulu. Is Liu Bei intentionally unfavorable to Wen Hou?"
"This... Wenyuan will know when he arrives."
The man was obviously not a good person who was good at speaking and did not answer the words of the great man in a positive way.
However, the man didn't care at that time.
I have known a man for many years and he knows the man's character well. He is an honest man, an extremely kind man.
But if you underestimate him because of his honesty and simpleness, you will definitely suffer a great loss.
This man is not one of the eight powerful generals, but in terms of talent, he is even better than most of the eight powerful generals. His martial arts are not too clever, that is, the level of middle and upper level. But if we talk about military management and command, even the Han Dynasty is unlikely to be able to defeat the opponent's means.
Eight hundred traps, and you will arrive first in every battle!
The man's name is Gao Shun, his courtesy name is Xiaogong, and his lyrics are nicknamed "Gao Laohu". Even if he is Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, he must be afraid of him.
Today, Wenhou Lu Bu asked Gao Shun to be in charge of the county jail, which was enough to explain all the problems.
Something must have happened, otherwise Lu Bu would not have mobilized such a large army, and even the trapped camp had to come out to take charge of the county guards.
Thinking of this, Zhang Liao couldn't help but feel a little worried.
In the yamen hall, Lu Bu sat upright in the center.
Although Lu Bu, who was nearly forty years old, was no longer as domineering as he was when he invited to fight against the heroes in front of Hulao Pass, he added a bit of stability. He wore a scarf on his head, a big robe, and a lion-man jade belt tied around his waist. Standing up, his height of nearly two meters would give people an inexplicable sense of oppression. Sitting in the yamen hall, although he was silent, the majesty exuded on his body made people frightened.
Under Lu Bu, he was a scholar.
At the age of 10, he is handsome and has a black beard under his jaw, which adds a more elegant look.
"Lord, Zhang Liao is here a while, please forgive me."
Zhang Liao strode into the yatang, first greeting Lu Bu, and then said to the scholar: "Mr. Gongtai, I'm so hasty to call me, I don't know what happened?"
The literati was the chief planner of Lu Bu's tent, Chen Gong.
Chen Gong is an extremely proud person. He is serious and gives people an extremely serious feeling.
However, when Chen Gong saw Zhang Liao, he still had a smile on his face, and stood up and bowed slightly, "Wenyuan, thank you for your hard work all the way!"
"Wen Yuan, I hurriedly asked you to discuss something with you."
Lu Bu spoke, and Chen Gong immediately sat down and stopped talking.
Zhang Liao hurriedly bowed and said, "Please give me the order!"
"There is no need to be so restricted. Come and see Wenyuan."
Outside the yamen hall, a small school brought a mat and invited Zhang Liao to take a seat. Then a food table was brought over and served wine.
"Wenyuan guards Hulu, can we know the movements of Cao thieves?"
Hulu is located in the northern part of Pei County and is also the gateway to Xuzhou.
When Liu Bei invited Lu Bu and settled him in Pei County, he had the idea of ​​letting Lu Bu guard the northern gate for him. As the number one general under Lu Bu, Zhang Liao naturally took on the task of guarding Hulu and resisting Cao's troops to the south. His responsibility was great.
Zhang Liao hurriedly said: "Cao Cao gathered his troops and horses at the beginning of the month and entered Yingchuan.
There was no big news since then. I heard that the troops were still mobilizing to prepare for a decisive battle with the remnants of the Yellow Turbans in Runan. Therefore, everything is normal in the lake and land..."
“That’s great.”
After Lu Bu finished speaking, his eyes looked at Chen Gong.
Chen Gong coughed, "Wen Yuan thought, what is Liu Bei?"
"Liu Bei?"
Zhang Liao was stunned, and after thinking about it, he said, "This man looks magnanimous and kind on the outside, but he is actually treacherous in his heart... Although he accepted Wen Hou and even gave food and supplies, it was just to use Wen Hou. Moreover, his troops were arrogant and arrogant. Zhang Fei had snatched away the 500 war horses bought by Wen Hou. If Liu Bei didn't nod in private, I would never believe it. So I thought that Liu Bei should never be careless."
Lu Bu and Chen Gong looked at each other and nodded repeatedly.
After a while, Chen Gong said, "Wan Wenyuan knows the bandits of Yushan?"
"Feather bandit?"
Zhang Liao was stunned again, then smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Shu Mo will be ignorant of Xuzhou, where did this feather bandit come from?"
"The Yushan bandits are a bandit entrenched in Donghai County."
Chen Gong told Zhang Liao all the sources of the Yushan bandits, and saw Zhang Liao squinting his lips and a disdainful expression appeared on his face.
"The feather bandits are indeed not worth worrying about.
But now they provide us with an opportunity.
Zhang Kai and Que Ba of Yushan had offended Mi Zhu before, and Mi Zhu was highly valued under Liu Bei's tent. Yushan bandits were worried that Liu Bei would attack them, so they sent someone to contact us, willing to surrender to Wenhou and seize Qu County as a ceremony for their audience. What do Wen Yuan think?"
Lu Bu immediately opened his eyes wide, full of hope.
Liu Bei took him in at his most difficult time, and Lu Bu was very grateful.
But the feeling of living under someone's roof is not good. Liu Bei is generous on the surface, but in fact he is alienated. Zhang Fei repeatedly provoked him, which made Lu Bu even more dissatisfied. How can a real man surrender to others? What's more, Lu Bu is not an idiot. When he was dominating the world, Liu Bei was just a little character, and he had never even heard of it. Who would have thought that now that the feng shui changes, Lu Bu still wants Liu Bei to take him in.
This gap made Lu Bu very uncomfortable.
Not to mention that Lu Bu held a banquet at home before, and according to Jiuyuan's rules, he asked his wife to come out to toast Liu Bei, which caused Liu Bei's ridicule. Because of this incident, Lu Bu became dissatisfied with Liu Bei... Later, Lu Bu bought 500 war horses and was kidnapped by Zhang Fei. When he came to the door to question the crime, Liu Bei was exposed casually, and even scolded Zhang Fei for a few words without any pain.
Five hundred war horses were returned to Lu Bu less than half!
This made Lu Bu feel strongly hatred towards Liu Bei...
So, when Que Ba and Zhang Kai found Lu Bu, Lu Bu was very happy.
Que Ba said that as long as Lu Bu was willing to take them in, all three thousand feathered bandits would be returned to Lu Bu's command. At that time, Que Ba would act in Donghai County and occupy Qu County, Liu Bei would definitely send troops to rescue him. At that time, Lu Bu could take the opportunity to send troops to capture Xia Pi, and Liu Bei would inevitably be in chaos.
This almost made Lu Bu feel moved.
But Chen Gong didn't agree very much, so in desperation, Lu Bu called Zhang Liao and asked for his opinion.
Thinking back to the time when he was working under Dong Zhuo, Zhang Liao did not have to have a lower status as Lu Bu, and his title did not have to have a higher official position than Lu Bu.
The dignified prefect of the northern region can be called a prince.
In contrast, although Lu Bu was brave and dominant in the world, his qualifications were really not as good as Zhang Liao, so he also valued Zhang Liao's opinions very much.
Zhang Liao, silent!
