Chapter 231 Really loyal minister!(1/2)
"Lord, you...you are suffering!!"
Seeing Lu Bu full of feces, Xu Si rushed up and knelt on the ground and hugged Lu Bu's feces, calves covered with feces.
Lu Bu's face was ashen. Of course, he couldn't tell if he was covered in feces, but he said in a low voice: "What the hell is going on? Have you...n't you rebel against me?"
"How could I rebel against you? I heard that Wang Kai was crazy and actually treasoned with Cai He and others. I went to find General Huo overnight to rescue him. Oh, by the way, is Cai He's head as evidence, General Huo?"
Seeing this, Huo Jun hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, holding Cai He's head high in his hand: "Last general Huo Jun, pay homage to Lord Zhou Mu, the head of the traitor Cai He is here, please check it out."
Lu Bu naturally heard of Huo Jun. In fact, when he was with Yuan Shu, he had fought with Huo Jun. He knew that this man and his brother were a pair of powerful clan thieves in Zhijiang. His ancestors had never had any high-ranking officials and had not studied any classics. He was not much different from Li Dian and Li Ji's background. Liu Biao was a man who valued the weak but was not strong. He had always been incompatible with people from the aristocratic families of Cai, Kuai and other Nanjun. He heard this, he believed it first.
"Why did Zhong Miao perform such a great gift?" As he said that, Lu Bu was about to step forward to help him up, but when he thought that he was already covered in filth, he stopped.
"Above the battle formation on the sunny day, I am already envious of Zhong Miao's bravery. I have always yearned for joining hands with Zhong Miao to kill the enemy. Liu Biao is different. I like you the most."
At this time, Hou Cheng, Cao Xing and other old generals had arrived and knelt down to Lu Bu to apologize. Lu Bu asked, "Where is the public platform?"
"The military advisor led us to chase Gao Shun to Dangyang, but he didn't want to fall into Gao Shun's trick. He cut off the bridge while he was walking onto the bridge. He had already... fell into the water and died."
“Ah~~~”
When Lu Bu heard this, he felt dizzy in his head.
"The public office... is dead? Ah~ it hurts my heart, it hurts my heart~, Public office~, Public office~, Public office~, our hegemony has not yet come true, why did you go ahead me? Public office, Public office~."
"The deceased has passed away, so please mourn the lord."
"Blame me, it's all my fault~ Although he is unparalleled in Gongtai, he doesn't understand the military after all. Why do I ask him to lead the troops to pursue him? It's all my fault~ Wuwu, it hurts so much!"
"Have you found the body of the Gongtai? You must find the body of the Gongtai and be buried with him. He has been loyal to me for so many years~!"
Lu Bu was really sad for a moment, and he was really heartbroken in tears, just like a cuckoo crying blood, extremely miserable.
Xu Si, Huo Jun, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun and others looked at each other, but their expressions were extremely complicated.
After a long time, this is the case. Chen Gong is a waste. There are only 800 people around Gao Shun. How could he still let him kill him?
This is great, now... Isn't this a failure?
But at this moment, Lu Bu walked to Cai Mao and others with the stinky stinky wind on his body and said, "Don't you want to support me as the lord of Jingzhou? Why do you want to rebel against me?"
"Master Zhou Mu, please spare me, let me wait... We are all bewitched by Wang Kai's mistress! He said... He said you have always liked martial artists but not liked scholars, and said you wanted to kill our entire clan. We were blinded by him for a while. This is what a great debauchery is done!"
Lu Bu was so angry that he stamped his feet: "Are you stupid? I... Although I, Lu Bu, like to kill people, I don't kill people for the sake of killing people. I am about to rely on you to achieve hegemony, so how can I harm you? In your eyes, Lu Bu is a brainless person with only force?"
Everyone was speechless for a long time, and after a long time, they said, "We all want to ask for death, and ask Lord Master Zhou to forgive me and others."
"Oh, you are also deceived. I think it's okay. In short, I, Lu Bu, will never do such short-sighted and unwise things. I hope you will assist me in your life and achieve hegemony together! By the way, where is that bastard? Where is that bastard?"
Lu Bu thought he was not stupid. Since he had already taken the governor of Jingzhou, he also killed Zhang Xian and forced Gao Shun to rebel. In addition to going all the way to the dark, can there be a way to turn around?
I'm afraid that Liu Bei and Cao Cao can wake up from laughing in their dreams now.
If you can't eat five cauldrons, you can really only cook five cauldrons.
It was not that he didn't realize that there was something strange about this, but these local gentry and powerful people in Nanjun were all real local snakes here. It was too late for him to win over, so how could he start another killing?
"Where is here?" Cai Mao immediately took out Wang Kai's head and asked for me.
"Oh, today, let's all be separated. If you loyally assist me in the future, the office is dead. I am very sad now and have no idea what to do. Let's talk about it tomorrow."
To be honest, he was in a hurry to take a shower.
After saying that, Lu Bu turned around and returned home, leaving only Xu Si, Huo Jun, Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and others looking at each other, their hearts so complicated that they were as if they had knocked over the Five Flavors Bottle, and no one wanted to speak.
How did things develop like this?
……………………
However, after Chen Gong died, his body was not found. Lu Bu personally presided over a grand funeral ceremony for him, but only buried the clothes he wore during his lifetime. Finally, he lay on Chen Gong's tombstone and cried so hard that he fainted from exhaustion.
Gao Shun on the other side went smoothly to the south. When he arrived at Changsha, he told the news of Zhang Xian and the news of the rebellion of Huan Jie and Lu Bu who was still waiting for the imperial court. Then he suggested that Huan Jie be the governor of Jingzhou and be the prefect of Changsha himself. The two of them joined forces to defend the city, surrendered and rebelled again, and held high the Han flag.
This series of changes was really too fast, from Wenpinju’s surrender to Liu Biao’s death, to Chen Gong’s death, Cai He’s death, and Wang Kai’s death, although it was a long story, it was actually only three or four days.
In fact, at this moment, whether it was Lu Bu's old subordinates, Liu Biao's old subordinates, or the remnants of the Yellow Turbans, the noble soldiers in Nanyang were now confused and were at a loss for a moment.
The reason why smart people are smart people is that they can judge the situation and know how to follow the trend and do the right thing.
Afterwards, Cai Mao and others asked Xu Si to send a message, and the first thing they did was to kill Wen Pin.
No matter whether they are really loyal to Lu Bu or fake loyalty to Lu Bu, in a short period of time, at least before the imperial army is over, they will definitely not dare to rebel again, and Lu Bu will not be unprepared for them. Once again, I am afraid that I will really kill the whole family.
Whether they simply support Lu Bu and continue to seize the separatist side or find another opportunity to rebel against the Lord, Wen Pin had to get rid of it.
After everyone's persuasion, Lu Bu also thought what they said was reasonable. Wenpin should be killed. He was a Nanyang native. After killing Zhang Xian, the Nanyang native was indeed unreliable.
Besides, Wen Pin surrendered in Kaicheng, Xiangyang before, and was the emperor who surrendered.
However, Lu Bu was not really stupid, but ordered Kuai Yue to lead the Kuai family soldiers to kill Wenpin. However, Kuai Yue kicked Wenpin's door and found out that he had already run away.
"If it's broken, Wenpin will definitely flee to Xiangyang. He has been in Xiangyang for many years, and many people there are his old subordinates. Once he is allowed to occupy Xiangyang, the lord will be over!"
"But Gao Shun and Huanjie in Changsha..."
"Oh, I don't care! The two evils are the least, Xiangyang is the gateway to Jingzhou!"
Wenpin's run made everyone in Nanjun anxious.
In fact, they should have killed Wenpin early in the morning, but weren’t they planning to kill Lu Bu early in the morning, and they didn’t want to kill Wenpin personally, but instead blamed the people of Yanzhou for killing Zhongliang.
Who made the situation change so quickly?
You can't let Wenpin run away! If he was asked to surrender to the court, wouldn't the court know so many things happened in Jingzhou?
So if this matter is seen, wouldn’t it really become that these Nanjun gentry and Chen Gong supported Lu Bu and continued to resist the court?
First support Liu Biao, then Lu Bu. What did you let the court think of them? Is there still a chance to surrender?
Lu Bu was also completely lost in the chaos of the current situation for a moment. Seeing that Xu Si and Cai Mao and others said this, even Huo Jun said this, and they were very active and enthusiastic about asking for a pioneer, so Lu Bu was confused and rushed to Xiangyang with his troops.
Then, he looked at the empty Xiangyang City with a look of horror.
Wen Pin actually took all the Xiangyang defenders away?
What's going on!
In fact, Wen Pin himself really wanted to rely on the Xiangyang City Defense to hold on for a period of time. Although due to Jiangling being occupied, the food in Xiangyang City has been completely cut off, but who told his subordinates to be from Nanyang?
Actually... Wenpin is really loyal to Liu Biao, but people can never betray their own origins and their own class.
After Zhang Xian rebelled, he was already very embarrassed. The Nanyang soldiers in Xiangyang were all refugees who fled from Nanyang to Jingzhou. They were incorporated by Liu Biao. Now the land of Nanyang has been completely restored. This autumn, the imperial court confiscated the captive tax under the pressure of the Battle of Guandu.
Seeing the land in Nanyang everywhere, they miss home too!
When Zhang Xian was together, everyone saw the opportunity, so they surrounded Wen Pin and turned against Liu Biao and surrendered. If Wen Pin insisted on being loyal to Liu Biao at that time, he would probably have to be killed by his subordinates first.
As a result, we finally found an opportunity to open the city and surrender, and we thought about going home to farm. You, Lu Bu, suddenly, didn't know what was wrong with rebellion?
We had just been a Han army for two days and turned into Han army again?
My mentality is broken!
So when Wenpin suggested that we stayed in Xiangyang for a while and then talked about the situation, all the subordinates expressed firm opposition.
Stay with it for a while? Who knows what will happen if we stick with it for a while? We are going home!
Then, that's it.
Looking at the empty Xiangyang City, when everyone thought that Wen Pin had already gone to Nanyang to join the court, everyone was a little unacceptable. Huo Jun even fell to the ground and Taotao burst into tears.
Lu Bu was so moved.
Loyal minister!
What a loyal loyal minister!
I have never had the same old age as him before, and he is so loyal to me. How touching is that he is so loyal to me!
So Lu Bu helped Huo Jun up and gave him a big hug and said, "It's okay Zhong Miao, did he run away? At least this Xiangyang City is still there, it won't affect our hegemony. You are so loyal to me, don't worry, I, Lu Bu, swear to the sky that I will share wealth and glory with you in the future and live and die together!"
Huo Jun was so excited that his whole body was trembling. He heard this and even said something was unsuccessful. He knelt down and said, "My day... I... I... I... I... Lord Xiezhou Mu's kindness."
"Ah, by the way, why not let's become sworn brothers!"
"ah?"
Huo Jun was confused, but Lu Bu seemed very excited. He knelt down to the heaven and earth on the top of Xiangyang city, pointing to the heaven and sworn: "I, Lu Bu, are willing to become brothers of different surnames with Huo Jun, share the blessings and suffer difficulties. I do not ask for birth on the same day of the same month of the same year, but ask for death on the same day of the same month of the same year, and the sky is above, and the thick soil is used as a guide. If this is contrary to this, the sky will hit lightning, so that my whole family will not die well!"
After saying that, Lu Bu looked at Huo Jun in surprise and said, "Zhong Miao, it's your turn."
"I, Huo Jun, are willing to become brothers of different surnames with Lu Bu, share blessings and difficulties. I do not ask for birth on the same day of the same year, month of the same month, but ask for death on the same day of the same year, month of the same month, and the sky is above, and the thick soil is used as a guide. If this is contrary to this, the sky will hit lightning, so that my whole family will not die well!"
"Zhong Miao, why are you crying?"
"I...I am moved, moved!!"
When Lu Bu heard this, he nodded with relief.
"Second brother, I will entrust you with all my life and death and hegemony. From today on, my second brother will be General Fu Bo, leading the troops in charge of the war in Xiangyang. Second brother, my elder brother has entrusted you with important responsibilities!"
Hum? Let me guard Xiangyang?
In fact, Lu Bu didn't want Huo Jun, who had just met, to guard Xiangyang for him, but the problem was that he had no one else in his hands. Of course, Hou Cheng and Cao Xing and other old subordinates were more reliable than Huo Jun, but did he not need anyone to guard him?
To be continued...
