It was getting late, and Gao Shun, who was in the Zhangjia Fort Army, was just wondering in his heart. He naturally knew what kind of personality Lu Bu was. He was all cheerful people who came out of the battle field. It was impossible to have a lot of fun with those who were always like Zhihu.

At the same time, it is just an ordinary banquet, but there are not so many troubles. Why is today's banquet so long?

At first, Gao Shun just thought that Lu Bu might have something to discuss with the gentry, so he didn't care. However, as time went by, Gao Shun gradually felt something was wrong.

At the north gate of the Zhangjia Fortress, the servants and guards in the Zhangjia Fortress were guarding the Zhangjia Fortress. These people were wearing armor and patrol down under the torches. The night was already deep, but the staff on the fortress seemed to have not decreased at all. You could see these guards slowly paced, sitting or standing, and some did not even stick their heads out of the village wall and looking at Lu Bu’s camp. They only whispered one or two words to each other, and there were no people chatting and laughing...

The situation seems increasingly strange.

"I have something important, please see Mr. Wen!" Gao Shun and Cheng Lian stood outside the Zhang family fort and shouted loudly to the fort.

There was a figure on the fort, but after a while, someone replied: "...According to the convention, the gates in the fort will not be opened at night, and Wen Hou celebrates a banquet in the fort... If there are some trivial matters, I will finish talking about it tomorrow..."

Gao Shun shouted: "I have military information to report. If you dare to stop it, it will be a death sentence! If you don't report it quickly, don't blame me for attacking the door immediately!"

"..." The castle was silent for a while, and after a long time, a voice replied, "...Well, wait, I'll send a message..."

After a long time, just as Gao Shun gradually lost his patience, he heard a voice coming from inside and said, "Wen Hou is on the way here, let's wait!"

After waiting for a while, he heard the voices coming gradually. When he heard Lu Bu's loud voice was also in it, Gao Shun was relieved.

"Hmm?" Lu Bu drank a lot, but he was not yet drunk. He was just a little angry. When he saw Gao Shun, he hesitated for a moment, and then said, "...uh, what emergency military information is there?"

Gao Shun bowed and said, "...Report to Marquis Wen, the general in the army should not leave for a long time, so please Marquis Wen return to the camp..."

Lu Bu frowned, a little unhappy.

Since leaving Chang'an, Lu Bu originally thought that he was at least a marquis and had martial arts skills. Besides, he was a hero who killed Dong Zhuo, which was considered to have eliminated the major troubles of the Kanto gentry and others. He also made some contributions. Even if he would not be reused immediately, he would have some preferential treatment.

However, reality quickly defeated the beautiful dreams of Lu Bu and others.

After leaving Chang'an in the east, who would have expected that Lu Bu's unparalleled ability would face difficulties frequently!

After joining Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu didn't even have to look at him. He looked at him with his head raised all day and showed his two big nostrils. How could Lu Bu be able to bear it?

There are also food, clothing and food, even a captain under Yuan Shu was not as good as that of him. Lu Bu really didn't want Gao Shun and Wei Xu and others to suffer, so he went to ask for it with shamelessness. Unexpectedly, he was turned away!

If it weren't for being forced to helpless, how could he speak according to Lu Bu's personality?

He really has martial arts skills, but he can't do anything about it!

Although it was a peaceful breakup in the end, the cold water of reality had already watered Lu Bu's head and body, and even cooled down to his heart.

Fortunately, when he arrived at Yuan Shao, Lu Bu saw some hope again.

Although Yuan Shao did not pay much attention to Lu Bu, at least he had Lu Bu commanded his troops, which was a good change...

At least I saw some hope.

Lu Bu was happy because of this, so he relaxed today and drank a few more drinks. Unexpectedly, Gao Shun called out halfway. Although he knew that Gao Shun had good intentions, he was still a little unhappy...

And one thing is very important, either Lu Bu thinks it is very important, that after Lu Bu experienced the Dong Zhuo incident, he gradually never paid attention to it, or he was disgusted with the changes in the state of these gentry.

Originally, Lu Bu didn't look down on these so-called gentry children, thinking that they were weak and useless, but what he didn't expect was that the gentry children who usually looked submissive and unconsciously set up a large and airtight net and put Dong Zhuo in the net.

Even Lu Bu himself was put into such a net.

During that period of time when Lu Bu was unemployed at home, while he was worried, he was constantly thinking. It was actually not feasible that he did not want to follow Dong Zhuo's old path and confronted the gentry.

This is different from pleasing Yuan Shao. At most, Yuan Shao nodded, laughed, and at most, he gave himself some soldiers to command, and it was over...

Jizhou has always been the base camp of Shandong gentry. If you want to leave the gentry and work alone?

hehe.

If there is no soldier around you, you will be even worse than a dog.

Dong Zhuoquan was in charge of many military forces in Xiliang, but at that time there were not many soldiers who could directly control them, so he died.

But to control the soldiers, you must give them food and pay, and where does this money and food come from?

After all, it is necessary to rely on the gentry to collect money and food to support it. As the saying goes, taking advantage of others' soft hands, eating others' short mouths, and not giving others some benefits, so how could these gentry be willing to take out money and food again and again?

Do you rely on smashing, smashing, robbing?

Will it be like this all your life?

Isn’t that the difference between it and the horse thief and bandits?

Therefore, Lu Bu felt that he had to make some changes, at least his relationship with the gentry should not be too rigid.

This time when I arrived in Jizhou, since I was appointed by Yuan Shao, I would of course have to be more tactful with the gentry in Jizhou. At least I should not let these gentry pull themselves up. Otherwise, even if I can accumulate some strength, I cannot last long.

However, although Lu Bu had such an idea, Lu Bu didn't know very well what he should do to be the most suitable one. As a result, the three Jizhou gentry whom I met in Zhangjiabao actually had a good conversation with each other, which made Lu Bu feel happy...

Therefore, when Gao Shun shouted him out of the banquet, he heard that there was no so-called important military affairs. Lu Bu had always been straightforward and wrote clearly on his face whenever he had any mood. Even if he was unfamiliar, he could see clearly that everyone around him was quiet.

A scholar beside Lu Bu, named Wang Tong, was a branch of the Wang family in Taiyuan. He moved to Jizhou a hundred years ago and was considered an old native.

Wang Tong looked at the situation and suddenly spoke, "Wen Hou, why should you mind... This... Haha, this lieutenant has a good intention... So, it's too late today, so it's not convenient for me to force Wen Hou..." After that, he smiled slightly, and then looked at the other person beside him.

The other person was named Li Xi, who stroked his beard and sighed: "...It's a pity, we will be separated in two days, and I'm afraid we will find it difficult to meet with Mr. Wen again..."

The last person next to him was named Liu Su, who also said, "I heard that Wen Hou said that the north style was mentioned, and I also yearn for it. It was just that the worldly affairs were plagued by it, so what could I do..."

"Yes, alas, the Book of Songs has something to say," Li Xi shook his head and said, "Picking Wei, Wei also said to be back and returned, and the years are not stopped. Because of the family and family, there is no need to go to the house, because of the sacred place... The ancients really did not deceive me..."

Wang Tong looked at Lu Bu's confused look and said with a smile: "This is Caiwei... Oh, what he said is like the one who is stationed in the border..."

Lu Bu nodded in a vague way, then thought for a while, and said, "Today I am grateful to you for the three of you. This... Well, Bu is a little reward in the camp in the afternoon tomorrow. I don't know if you have time..." It's impolite to come and not go. Although Lu Bu is not a child of a gentry, he still knows a little about etiquette, so Lu Bu said this. He didn't expect these three people to agree, but he didn't expect these three people to agree...

Lu Bu was overjoyed, and he laughed suddenly. He and the three of them confirmed the time again, and took Gao Shun and others away.

Seeing that Lu Bu was walking away, the three Jizhou gentry slowly closed their smiles, looked at each other, shook their heads at the same time, and laughed in a low voice.

"I don't know if Caiwei is just a little bitch..." Li Xi sneered, "Is it so vulgar, and I want to get involved in Jizhou?"

Liu Su nodded and said, "I think of Jizhou, which has passed down poetry and books in the past and literary style is prosperous. How could such a martial artist covet such a martial artist?"

Wang Tong did not say anything immediately, but instead looked at the Zhang family's owner of the Zhang family's big fort on the side, and said, "Why did you stop me just now? Why don't you let him report it?"

The Fort Master Zhang was a little confused. He looked at Wang Tong and said hesitantly: "...this...is not General Ju..."

"Bold!" Li Xi glanced at both sides and said in a deep voice, "Don't talk nonsense!"

Master Zhang was stunned for a moment, then he didn't say much, and then took the three of them back to the hall first, asked the servant to take the banquet, and then served tea. Then he asked Wang Tong in a low voice.

"This matter... the nephew is confused..." Wang Tong looked at the castle master Zhang, shook his head and said, "Your father is also a smart person. Why are you like this...ah..."

The lord of the fort, Zhang, quickly bowed and said, "This... my nephew is stupid, so I would like to ask my three uncles for advice..."

Wang Tong shook his head, waved his hand to let the fort master Zhang get closer, and whispered: "...General Ju, haha, General Ju's words are about to be here... But you once thought, if this person was broken into the fort, haha... Do you want or not your great wealth?"

Liu Su also said: "Although this person is stupid and has been through a long battle formation. He is a good man, but he is afraid that he will not be able to get close to him. My nephew will say, how do you want to arrange it? Could it be that if you set up three hundred swords and axes here, you can't throw a cup as a digit? Haha..."

Later generations also had exaggerated legends about Liu Bang and Xiang Yu's Hongmen Banquet, but in fact, how could a small hall ambush so many people, with swords, axes and armor, and the jingling sounds in one place, I'm afraid it's hard not to let people know.

Besides, as a general in the army, he has been through bloody storms, so why are he not prepared? His personal guards are on the side. With a greeting, even if he drank some wine, he was not drunk. At most, he was a little slow in movement.

Therefore, if you really take action in the fortress, not to mention whether you can achieve your wish, Gao Shun and others outside the fortress would not give up. If you really acted ruthlessly, although the fortress was very strict and had many guards, you would not know the outcome of the victory or defeat to fight those veterans.

"...But General Ju doesn't say anything..." As soon as Master Zhang said halfway through his speech, his face suddenly changed. He looked at Wang Tong's face and said in a vain, "...My uncle's words, would General Ju... also break his promise?"

Wang Tongha laughed, patted the Zhang family's fortress owner on the shoulder, and said, "Nephew Zhang, think about it carefully, General Ju can say anything about it and protect you from peace afterwards? Ha, I'm afraid he would have said too much about gold, silk, wealth, and official positions... If you have a life, you can naturally receive it. If so... Haha, how can you say General Ju break your promise? Why did you break your promise?"

The Zhang family's Fortress Master woke up from the dream, and quickly bowed deeply, almost crying: "If it weren't for what my uncle said, my nephew's life would be lost!"

Li Xi looked at the owner of the Zhang family fortress and coughed slightly.

The Zhang family's Fortress Master quickly turned around and thanked him like Li Xi and Liu Su, and then asked someone to prepare some gifts and towels for thanks...

Li Xi then smiled and refused for a while, then he seemed reluctant to do so, nodded in a warm and reluctant manner, and accepted it.

After receiving the gift, he naturally shared the worries for the Zhangjiabao master.

Wang Tong raised his little finger, pinched the tea bowl and took a sip, then put it down, shook his head and said, "Oh, it's just a pity..."

The Zhang family's Fortress Master thought it was difficult to deal with, so he wanted to give up, so he said with a bitter face: "Uncle, please help me with an idea... Otherwise, General Ju will blame him..."

Wang Tong raised his eyebrows and said, "Your nephew doesn't need to worry. What a pity is not referring to this matter, but... Alas, it's really regrettable that such a brave man cannot get close to him..."

This sounds pretty good, but if it is linked to Wang Tong's habits, it will be a little bit hard to say...

Li Xi looked at Wang Tong, knew it clearly, laughed twice, and said, "Brother Wang, don't feel sorry... There is a new martial artist in a certain family, who is also a martial hero. If Brother Wang is interested, you might as well give it to Brother Wang?"

"You are kind, you're kind..." Wang Tong laughed and didn't refuse. Some people like money, some people like beauties, some people like handsome men, of course, there are also some people like brave men. Wang Tong is a good person, but his hobbies are more special...

Seeing that the Zhang family's fortress owner was at a loss, Liu Su thought of the Zhang family's fortress owner's reception and the gold, silk and property to be delivered to him, and said, "Nephew, if you don't do this, General Ju's side may not be able to argue. If you want to do it... Haha, it's actually not difficult..."

The Zhang family fortress owner was a little puzzled and said, "He has returned to the camp now, surrounded by soldiers. If you want to act, it will be even more difficult. So how can you do it?"
