Chapter 363: Give in to others

Author: Glorious Little Rabbit

Gao Shun couldn't be bothered by Yuan Xi and had to tell him a few tips on military training. How could he not see that Yuan Xi had evil intentions towards him? But the more this happened, the less he could show any closeness to Yuan Xi.

Without him, his current situation would be too embarrassing.

Gao Shun also knew that his style of doing things was not compatible with Lu Bu and his generals. Even with Zhang Liao, who was closest to him, their relationship was only superficial.

Due to various reasons, he left the Yuan family on a whim and switched to Lu Bu. Although Lu Bu thought highly of him at first and gave him the same general position as Chen Gong, Gao Shun knew that Lu Bu always had some feelings for him.

Fearful.

Lü Bu was inherently suspicious. He betrayed his leader twice, so he was naturally afraid that his capable subordinates would betray him. However, Gao Shun was incompatible with everyone and controlled the trap, which made Lü Bu unconsciously and secretly guard against him.

The Huaicheng Rebellion became the last straw for Lu Bu. Except for Wei Xu, who was related to him, Lu Bu found that he could not trust anyone anymore, so he took advantage of the situation and reduced Gao Shun's military power.

Although Gao Shun was dissatisfied, he had no other choice now. Lu Bu betrayed the emperor twice and was infamous. He had betrayed the Yuan family, could he betray Lu Bu again?

So when Yuan Xi showed his unabashed solicitation to Gao Shun, Gao Shun hesitated but refused. If he went back to join the Yuan family, wouldn't he appear to be a capricious villain?

Gao Shun's tangled look made Yuan Xi secretly proud. Gao Shun's talents couldn't be used by Lu Bu at all. He was really a talent. And now that I'm targeting him, he still wants to run away?

Look at how I wield the bow forcefully!

He held Gao Shun's hand like candy and drank a lot of ecstasy soup, making him on the verge of collapse. He heard a cough. Yuan Xi turned his head and saw Lu Bu staring at him with an unkind expression behind him.

When Gao Shun saw it, he took the opportunity to take out his hand and said, "Marquis Wen."

He didn't explain anything, and he didn't bother to explain. That's just his temper.

Yuan Xi reluctantly withdrew his hand and said to Lu Bu: "General Gao and I are very close to each other. We even want to exchange half of Bingzhou with Marquis Wen."

Gao Shun's face froze, how could you talk like that!

Lu Bu's face became even more ugly, and he snorted coldly, "Ferocious tiger, love comes from love. When you deceived me, you didn't show any kindness at all!"

Yuan Xiqiang smiled and said: "Marquis Wen has wronged me. Yuan and Cao are good friends. As a son of the Yuan family, I help Marquis Wen and the Cao family to oppose each other, and I bear a lot of risks."

Lu Bu said angrily: "Who knows what your plans are, what kind of stargazing you use to deceive me, you are full of lies!"

Yuan Xi's expression remained unchanged, "Whether stargazing is real or not, Marquis Wen should know better than me."

"Marquis Wen should understand that if I hadn't been optimistic about the prospect of joining forces with Marquis Wen, I wouldn't have appeared here."

After hearing this, Lu Bu's tone softened slightly, "How can I prove your sincerity?"

Yuan Xi made an invitation gesture and said with a smile: "Why don't Marquis Wen come in and talk in detail?"

Zhang, Liao and Gao Shun stood outside the camp and couldn't help but look at each other.

Lu Bu went in alone, but Yuan Xi came in with Jushu. Although this doesn't mean anything, Yuan Xi is obviously more generous than Lu Bu in terms of being open and honest with his subordinates.

In the tent, Lü Bu, Yuan Xi, Jushu and the other two people sat down. Lü Bu did not go around in circles and said, "Are you really going to join forces with me?"

"I'm not in a good situation right now, what benefit can I give you?"

"What benefit can you give me?"

After hearing this, Yuan Xi smiled and said: "I'm afraid that Marquis Wen has not yet made up his mind about what to do next."

"Indeed, in the south of Hanoi, Yuan Shu's army has set out from Yuzhou and is ready to move."

"Cao Jun stretched out his hand from Yanzhou and stared at Huaicheng, and his conspiracy almost succeeded."

"The Black Mountain Army was clearly behind the scenes during the Huaicheng Rebellion. Marquis Wen could be said to be surrounded by enemies on three sides."

"However, among Marquis Wen's subordinates, it is very likely that there are people who are plotting to rebel. There may even be more than one or two people, so that no one in Marquis Wen can believe it."

"Under this situation, I'm afraid that Marquis Wen has lost confidence in serving the emperor, right?"

After Lu Bu heard this, he clenched his fists. Yuan Xi was indeed right. These incidents happened one after another, making him unsure of the next direction.

His nature is not to be a lord. He just wants to be a general and it is enough to be able to fight in battle. It is too difficult for him to use his brain to make strategies!

He said coldly: "I admit that what you said is reasonable, so you plan to take advantage of it?"

Yuan Xi replied: "No, I want to be Marquis Wen's most reliable ally, nothing more."

Lu Bu listened and said noncommittally, "Can you solve my dilemma?"

After hearing this, Yuan Xi saw that Lu Bu had taken the bait, so he said, "Mr. Gong Yu can explain it more clearly than me. I would like to ask him to answer it for me."

When Jushu and Lu Bu were both under Yuan Shao, they were among the top three among Yuan Shao's subordinates, but their status was much higher than that of Lu Bu. So after hearing this, Lu Bu's expression softened a bit and said: "Then I will

Just listen to it."

Jushou bowed his hands to the two of them and said: "Marquis Wen is currently facing internal and external troubles. If it were not for the help of the young master, the situation would be in danger."

Lu Bu snorted coldly.

Jushou added: "The four troubles of Yuan Shu, Cao Cao, Heishan, and traitors may seem troublesome, but they can be divided and conquered."

"And the key is to welcome the emperor."

"As long as the emperor can be welcomed to Huaicheng, at least three problems can be solved."

Lu Bu felt a little moved at the moment and said in a deep voice, "I would like to hear the details."

Jushou knew that Lu Bu didn't dare to believe anyone at this time, so it was a good opportunity to convince him. He immediately said: "Although the Han Dynasty is declining, it has not exhausted its strength, otherwise there will not be many parties competing for the emperor's destiny."

"Marquis Wen was already on good terms with the emperor, and the previous emperor also issued an edict asking Marquis Wen to take over. Unfortunately, Marquis Wen missed this opportunity."

"If the emperor is in Huai City, people from all over the world who are interested in the Han Dynasty will come in droves, and Marquis Wen will be able to strengthen his army. In this way, how can Cao Cao dare to plot easily? How can the Heishan Army who has been named by the Han court dare to rebel again? The traitors will not dare to act rashly.

So that he would be charged with plotting to assassinate the emperor?"

"It can be said that the Emperor is now Marquis Wen's greatest talisman, and you should never miss it!"

Lu Bu was immediately moved and slapped his thigh excitedly, "Well said!" But he immediately calmed down and frowned: "There are so many forces competing for the emperor now, how can I possibly win?"

"Moreover, Li Jue and Guo Si are bound to win against the Emperor. Even Chang'an has been beaten to ashes. If they come to attack me, I'm afraid I won't be able to stop them."

Jushou stroked his beard and said, "I can't guarantee that they will definitely not attack Huaicheng."

"But to serve the emperor, do we have to kill everyone else?"

"If Marquis Wen rushes to the Emperor's side as quickly as possible and gains the Emperor's trust, he can snatch the Emperor from Cao Cao's hands."

"Although the Baibo thieves are acting badly, as long as Marquis Wen joins forces with the Youzhou Army to suppress them, and if he can subdue them again, as a help, Li Jue and Guo Si will not be our opponents!"

Lu Bu was completely moved this time, but he knew that things would not go so smoothly, so he said: "I can send thousands of troops here, but Youzhou can only send two thousand troops, right?"

"Can these people alone really subdue the Baibo thieves and defeat Li Jue and Guo Si?"

Yuan Xi thought that Lu Bu was really afraid of Li Jue and Guo Si, but when he thought about it, Lu Bu's great situation was ruined overnight after Li Jue and Guo Si captured Chang'an.

The Flying Bear Army led by the opponent can be regarded as the elite of the Xiliang Army. The Emperor's convoy was defeated by it several times, which shows that its strength is extraordinary.

Jushou heard this and said: "Indeed, so we need Marquis Wen to find some help, such as Duan Xuan who returned to Huayin."

Lu Bu was startled, how could he mention this person?

Jushu told the story of Duan Xuan's service to the emperor, but was driven away by suspicion, and finally said: "Marquis Wen and his former subordinates were both subordinates of Grand Master Dong. They should understand that this person is a human being."

When Lu Bu heard Dong Zhuo's name, a look of unnaturalness flashed across his face, and he immediately said: "Indeed, although Duan Yan is a military commander in Liangzhou, he is an alien and behaves somewhat like Gao Shun."

Ju said: "This person hates Li Jue and Guo Si to the core. If Marquis Wen sends a letter inviting him to attack Li Jue and Guo Si together, this person will definitely agree."

"And if Marquis Wen welcomes the Emperor first, it will prevent others from daring to act rashly for a considerable period of time."

"Even Cao Cao has to re-plan, so that Marquis Wen can have a chance to breathe."

After hearing this, Lu Bu asked and nodded, and then said: "I know the benefits of serving the emperor, but if Yuan Shu wants to become emperor, he will definitely attack me. I'm afraid he won't obey the emperor's orders, right?"

After hearing this, Jushou said: "Yes, the battle between Marquis Wen and Yuan Shu is unavoidable."

"But from another perspective, isn't Yuan Shu the enemy of everyone in the world?"

"As long as you have the name of serving the emperor, there will definitely be many people willing to help Marquis Wen, and Marquis Wen will never fight alone!"

Jushou finally said: "So the key to everything lies with the emperor!"

"First welcome the Emperor to Huaicheng, and then use the Emperor's name to recruit allies and defeat Yuan Shu. Great things can be expected!"

Lu Bu was completely moved. On the one hand, Ju Shou's statement was reasonable and he conceived a feasible blueprint for Lu Bu's psychology.

On the other hand, as a top strategist, Jushu's vision and eloquence are indeed much better than Chen Gong. Sometimes Chen Gong understands in his heart, but due to his own temperament and experience, he often fails to convince Lu Bu and instead tries to convince him.

Got into the dead end.

Lu Bu finally thought of a question, "I have a grudge against the Yuan family, why did Youzhou help me so much?"

Jushou smiled and said, "Of course the young master is optimistic about Marquis Wen."

How could Lu Bu be fooled by such words? He asked, "How to prove it?"

"How do I know if you kicked me away after using me, just like what Yuan Shao did at that time?"

Jushu knew that Lu Bu was deeply worried about being assassinated by Yuan Shao, so he glanced at Yuan Xi and said, "The two parties can marry."

Lu Bu was startled, then realized what he was doing, pointed at Yuan Xi and said, "Aren't you married?"

"Are you going to divorce your first wife?"

After hearing this, Yuan Xi shook his head and said, "That's not possible."

"What!" Lu Bu suddenly became murderous, "You want to take my daughter as your concubine?"

"You're looking for death!"
