Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Lu Bu nodded and said, "So, the envoy from Jingzhou has other purposes for going to Bingzhou."

"In the opinion of my subordinates, my lord should meet the Jingzhou envoy in person, and perhaps he can get information that is beneficial to my lord," Jia Xu said.

After entering Huguan, Zhang Mao immediately felt the difference in Bingzhou. In the past, he only heard other people talk about the changes in Bingzhou. Deep down in his heart, Zhang Mao had doubts. After seeing the scene in Bingzhou, Zhang Mao

One can imagine the surprise in my heart.

Seeing the majestic Jinyang City, Zhang Mao was even more unbelievable. Even the city of Xiangyang seemed a little inadequate compared with the Jinyang City at that time. As the gateway and seat of government of Jingzhou, Jingzhou invested a lot of money in Xiangyang.

A lot of manpower and material resources.

The wide and neat streets and the houses on both sides of the road give people a pleasing feeling. Based on the experience of the Jingzhou envoys in the past, Zhang Mao behaved extremely low-key and ordered the accompanying guards not to overstep their bounds. On the way to Bingzhou, Zhang Mao received

The four counties in Jingzhou refused to obey Liu Bei's orders, which made Zhang Mao feel the urgency. At this time, Lu Bu's attitude can be said to be crucial.

After occupying the Sanfu territory, the Bingzhou army only needs to send troops from Wuguan to attack Nanyang County in Jingzhou, thus forming a deterrent to Xiangyang. This is also the main reason why Jingzhou strongly advocates the coalition of princes to attack Bingzhou. Wuguan is in the hands of Lu Bu, after all.

It will pose a strong threat to Jingzhou.

Although the land of Chang'an is in chaos, once Lu Bu's army stabilizes the land of Sanfu, it will be the greatest deterrent to Xining City in Jingzhou.

After Cao Cao's army captured Yin, Henan, they failed to enter Hongnong. Hongnong was secretly supported by Jingzhou. There was a rift between Jingzhou and Cao Cao, and they would definitely not let Cao's army threaten Jingzhou so easily.

Jingzhou is a place of the Four Wars, and it is necessary to be wary of enemies from other places at any time. This is why the development of Jingzhou was greatly restricted at the beginning.

Knowing the low profile of the Jingzhou envoy, Lu Bu smiled secretly in his heart. This is the benefit of absolute strength.

If Bingzhou suffered heavy losses in this battle, the attitude of the princes towards Bingzhou would definitely not be as respectful as it is now.

"Let the envoy from Jingzhou come in. After all, the envoy from Jingzhou is one of the nine ministers. I don't dare to let one of the nine ministers wait outside the governor's mansion." Lu Bu said.

Dian Wei chuckled and walked slowly outside the Prefectural Mufu Mansion. He didn't have any good impressions of the Jingzhou envoy. From Lu Bu's tone, he also felt that Lu Bu didn't care about the Jingzhou envoy.

How to embarrass the Jingzhou envoy later?

Becoming one of the Five Tiger Generals, Dian Wei felt that he was full of fighting spirit. Looking at the Bingzhou Army, his status was second only to Zhao Yun. What an honor it was. Thinking of the time when he blocked the road to see Lu Bu, he couldn't help but feel lucky for his choice.

.

Zhang Mao saw a general with a rough appearance and a strong body walking out of the governor's mansion. He cupped his hands and said, "This general is an envoy of the Han Dynasty. I would like to ask the general to report on his behalf."

Dian Wei smiled and said: "As expected by this general, your Excellency must be Zhang Taichang."

"May I ask who the general is?" Zhang Mao asked. Knowing his identity showed that the person in front of him had a certain status in Bingzhou.

"This general is Dian Wei Shiye, the commander of the bodyguard of the Marquis of Jin."

Zhang Mao said hurriedly: "It turns out to be General Dian. The name of General Dian Wei is like thunder."

This sentence was more useful to Dian Wei, and his eyes towards Zhang Mao softened a lot, "Follow me, General, but others cannot go."

Zhang Mao smiled and said: "Of course."

An official who followed lowered his voice and said, "Sir, he is just a general in the Bingzhou Army. How dare you be so rude in front of Taichang."

Zhang Mao glared at the official and said, "Don't talk nonsense."

Dian Wei's name has already become famous all over the world through the Dahan newspaper Lu Bu's awards to generals in the army. The Dahan newspaper introduced the generals Lu Bu rewarded. Dian Wei was able to become Lu Bu's personal guard commander for many years, to a certain extent.

It can affect Lu Bu's decision. The more at such a time, the more careful you must be. A trivial matter may affect Lu Bu's decision. Zhang Mao is here with a mission, so he must be cautious.

If you were simply an envoy of the Han Dynasty, there would be no problem in acting arrogantly when governing the territory of the princes. However, the current situation in Jingzhou cannot withstand too much turmoil and you must keep a low profile. This is also the helplessness of the court today.

Seeing Lu Bu, who was wearing black clothes and looking calm and confident, Zhang Mao hurriedly saluted and said: "I have seen the general."

Lu Bu looked at Zhang Mao for a moment and said: "It's hard work for Zhang Taichang to come all the way. Unfortunately, I am busy with business and cannot greet you in person. I hope you will forgive me."

Zhang Mao hurriedly raised his hands and said, "General, you're welcome."

After sitting down, Zhang Mao took out the imperial edict directly and said: "General, I have issued a decree to reward the civil servants and military generals under the general."

Lu Bu secretly despised it. It seemed that the envoy from Jingzhou also understood the role of the imperial edict. Otherwise, how could he be so casual?

Of course, what Lu Bu didn't know was that the envoys of the Han Dynasty were also bullying and fearful of the strong. For ordinary princes, they still had to behave respectfully when they saw the imperial edict and did not dare to go overboard in the slightest. The main reason was that Zhang Mao understood Lu Bu's character.

If you overdo it, it may be counterproductive.

Besides, the role of this imperial edict was essentially dispensable to Lu Bu at this time. Otherwise, Lu Bu would not directly reward his generals without going through the hands of the Han Dynasty.

"Just tell me your reason for coming. These two are Jia Xu and Li Su." Lu Bu said calmly.

Zhang Mao bowed his hands and said slowly: "I wonder what the general thinks of the current emperor?"

Lu Bu raised his eyebrows. Liu Qi became the emperor of the Han Dynasty. He was naturally extremely dissatisfied. Liu Qi and he had an unhappy relationship outside Xiangyang City. Liu Qi must have been extremely dissatisfied with him at this time. It was only because of the power of Bingzhou that he could

He had to show weakness to Bingzhou.

Zhang Mao, who had been observing Lu Bu, saw the subtle change in Lu Bu's expression and whispered: "Originally, the Holy Emperor designated the young prince as the crown prince when he was dying. Who knew that Liu Bei captured the Jingzhou army on their way back?

The military power forced the officials of the Han Dynasty to submit. Now the officials of the Han Dynasty are very dissatisfied with Liu Bei. The prefects of Lingling County, Guiyang County, Wuling County and Changsha County have openly criticized Liu Bei."

"So, you went to Jinyang this time to gain my support?" Lu Bu asked.

Zhang Mao saluted solemnly and said: "When Jingzhou raised troops to attack Chang'an, there were many misunderstandings with the general. If the general is willing to support the young prince, Jingzhou will be grateful."
