The Three Kingdoms of the Lu family

() Yuan Junzhong.

The eldest son Yuan Tan was walking back and forth in the military tent irritably.His heart is very complicated now.From time to time, Lu Yi's invincible posture of challenging the crowd emerged in his mind.

Lu Yi was right. At this time, Yuan Tan's greatest desire is to have a group of brave generals who dare to fight and kill, who can stand up to Yuan Shang in Yecheng.

As soon as Lu Yi asked for refuge, Yuan Tan was almost overjoyed, and immediately had the urge to nod.After coming to Taishan, after many inquiries.Yuan Tan already knew that Lu Yi's remnant army was a truly powerful army.

He defeated Yu Jin's pursuit with a flick of his fingers, and then without stopping, the powerful Taishan army that had been entrenched in Mount Tai for many years was annihilated in ashes.Such an invincible iron army is exactly what Yuan Tan longs for.

But the scheming Guo Tu stopped Yuan Tan.Guo Tu is a person with a high desire for power, and what he loves the most is to show off his intellect.

So Guo Tu gave Yuan Tan an idea, that is to sit firmly in the army and wait for Lu Yi to come to see him in person.In this way, you can test the sincerity of the Bingzhou army, establish Yuan Tan's prestige, and show off your strategy casually.

It's just that although Guo Tu's plan was good, he miscalculated the strength of the Bingzhou Army.Yuan Jun's arrogance almost blew the lungs of the violent Bingzhou soldiers,

Lu Yi was also quite annoyed. Although he was on the road, he was still dawdling. Zhen Yan, who followed angrily, urged him several times, but he was too anxious.

Yuan Tan in the tent is also sitting on pins and needles.I sent people out to inquire several times, but there was no news.Yuan Tan finally couldn't sit still, looked sideways at Guo Tu, and said worriedly: "Military Master, I heard that warriors can't stand it the most. Do you think we should take the initiative and show our sincerity?"

When Guo Tu heard this, his complexion sank immediately.In fact, Guo Tu also found that he had underestimated Lu Yi's arrogance. After all, the Bingzhou Army only took refuge, and Lu Yi was not a surrendered general.

He made Yuan Tan put on airs, which could easily cause misunderstandings.

But he was the one who came up with the plan, Guo Tu was so arrogant, how could he admit that he was wrong, and forced himself to say calmly: . "Don't worry, eldest son, isn't it still early?"

Yuan Tan sighed.Not saying anything.He sat on the seat and continued to wait.

At this time, Lu Yi was still riding his horse and wandering on the road. No matter what he saw, even if it was a bare hill, he would stop his horse and admire him endlessly.

This made Zhen Yan so anxious that the corners of his mouth were bubbling.Persuading him bitterly, he said: "General Lu, let's go quickly, the eldest son is still waiting, it's not good to be late!"

"What are you in a hurry for? It's not that you want to seek refuge! Wait a little longer, look at this mountain, which is so green and green!" Lu Yisha put up a canopy with his serious hands, and made a gesture of looking into the distance.

Zhen Yan suddenly heard Lu Yi's literati getting up, and his diction was so elegant, she couldn't help being curious, and followed Lu Yi's line of sight.

As a result, the corner of Zhen Ergong's mouth twitched, and he almost couldn't help but fell off his horse. He saw a bare mountain in the distance, full of gravel, dead wood, not to mention emerald greens, it would be nice to find a piece of grass up.

"What is there to see in such an evil mountain!" Second Master Zhen was indignant.

"Vulgar, vulgar!" With an expression that you don't understand, Lu Yi pointed to the distance and said, "What I see in my eyes is a decaying mountain, but what I see in my heart is the scene when it was prosperous. Fortunately, you are still the son of a family, so shallow!"

"you……"

Zhen Yan spurted blood and fell off the horse with a thud.Thinking of him, Zhen Yan, who has studied hard for many years, although he is not a great Confucian, he is also knowledgeable. Today, he did not expect to be despised by a vulgar martial artist.

Still can't find an excuse to refute.

Shame!

The Second Young Master Zhen directly hid his face and retreated, refusing to speak to Lu Yi again.I was afraid that if I opened my mouth again, I would be pissed off by Lu Yi.

"Seeing that you still know how to cover your face with your sleeves and know some shame, I will give you a face and send an order to hurry up!" Lu Yi is a person who holds grudges, and Yuan Tan dares to be arrogant to him, so Lu Yi is arrogant to him.

Look at the dawdling almost.It is estimated that Yuan Tan on the opposite side should have learned a lesson.Lu Yi immediately put away his playfulness, urged the horse, and galloped quickly.

The nearby wolf cavalry cheered one after another, sang folk songs, and rushed towards Yuan Jun's camp with a strong Bingzhou accent.

Yuan Jun, who was patrolling around, had already received the news, so he didn't make any hostile moves, but just walked out of the camp one after another, watching a group of people roaring past curiously.

Someone has already told Yuan Tan the news quickly.

"Come?" Yuan Tan was sitting in the tent, his legs were almost numb, and finally heard the news that Lu Yi had come.I couldn't help being overjoyed, and I was about to go out to greet him in surprise.

The current Mr. Yuan doesn't want to put on airs anymore.I just hope that the Bingzhou army can be gathered as soon as possible, so as to fight Yuan Shang in Yecheng.

Guo Tu looked very jealous, secretly thinking that Yuan Tan had never seen him so caring for him in the past.How could Lu Yi be allowed to show off the limelight, so he hurriedly stopped him and said, "My lord, what you did is wrong! Didn't you hear that he also brought four hundred Bingzhou wolves to ride over? Lu Yi himself is very brave, so don't worry about it. If he has evil intentions and kidnaps you on the spot, what should we do?"

"Ah? The second son of Zhen can use the Zhen family to protect Lu Yi, the military commander is too worried!" Yuan Tan said with a smile.I think Guo Tu is too careful.

But Yuan Tan was a suspicious person, after hearing Guo Tu's words, he still couldn't help but sat down and asked, "What does the military advisor mean, what should I do?"

"Let him come in to pay a visit!" Guo Tu said arrogantly.Lu Yi secretly said that he was so negligent to him, and he had to teach the Bingzhou Army a lesson no matter what.

"This... good!" Yuan Tan was helpless, although he felt that this was inappropriate, but he was used to Guo Tu's suggestions, so he still obeyed.In a hurry, people went to send orders.

At this time, Lu Yi had already led his people outside the gate, and was meeting the pawn who delivered the order.I heard that Yuan Tan didn't come out to meet him, but let him go in by himself.

Lu Yi didn't say anything, Zhang Liao, who followed, already had a fierce look on his face.Glaring at the little soldier, the little soldier only felt his scalp go numb, but under Zhang Liao's stare, he was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground.

"My lord, Yuan Jun is too rude!" A group of wolf cavalry also clamored.

"Hateful, that Guo Tu must be playing tricks on it!" Zhen Yan was in Hebei, so she naturally knew a lot of inside stories, but after thinking about it for a while, she understood a lot, and her body trembled in anger.

In order to persuade Lu Yi to come over, Second Master Zhen said all kinds of good things.After being exhausted, he didn't dare to direct this anger at Lu Yi, but he didn't pay attention to a little Guo Tu.

"Forget it, I'll just go in!" Lu Yi smiled slightly. The most important thing for him at the moment was to return to Hebei as soon as possible, and he didn't bother to pay attention to some trivial matters.

Immediately get off the horse and stride in.

"My lord, the general will go with you!" Zhang Liao said from the side.

Lu Yi turned around, waved his hand and said, "No need, I want to leave, no one can keep me! Besides, I still have my second brother with me!" After finishing speaking, Zhen Yan was not allowed to react, and dragged him off the horse.

"It's an insult to the gentleness, it's really an insult to the gentleness!" Zhen Yan was torn off the horse, almost staggered and fell to the ground, her eyes puffed up involuntarily, and she struggled hard.

It's just that in Lu Yi's eyes, his struggle was like an ant scratching an itch, and he didn't care about it at all, and walked inside if it dragged him.

In his heart, Guan Yunchang had the domineering aura of going to the meeting alone.It's just that the second master Guan is dragging a great talent like Lu Su, but he is dragging an incompetent uncle.

The difference!

Lu Yi looked up to the sky and sighed.Then he lowered his head and walked into Yuan Tan's military tent along the curtain opened by his personal guards.

It's warm inside.Inside the bright military tent, several pitch-black charcoal basins emitted crackling flames, dispelling the chill in the air.

In more than a hundred square military tents, the floor is covered with thick blankets, and then there are seats, a few desks, the position of the head is slightly higher, and there are several steps.Yuan Tan was sitting on it.

Lu Yi sized Yuan Tan up, this was the second time the two met.When we met for the first time, I blushed and had a thick neck, almost desperately.The second time they met, they were calm and wanted to sit down and negotiate.

Life is really amazing.

Lu Yi sighed in his heart, let go of Zhen Yan's arm, solemnly clasped his fists and said, "My lord, Lu Yi is late, please forgive me!" Then he turned to Guo Tu, "This is Mr. Guo, a famous scholar in Hebei, Lu Yi has long admired his name!"

"General Lu can come, and it's too late for Yuan to be happy. What's wrong with the general! Don't stand up, both of you, come and sit on my soft couch!" Yuan Tan was very happy, seeing that there was no trace of his own rudeness on Lu Yi's face. Being angry is enough to prove the sincerity of the Bingzhou Army.

So he stepped aside from the side of the soft couch, intending to chat with Lu Yi and increase their relationship.

There was also a smile on Guo Tu's rigid face, secretly thinking that Lu Yi is quite acquainted, and he has heard of my name, Guo Tu, and he is not comparable to his arrogant uncle.In his mouth, he said modestly:

"It's just a false name, it just makes the general laugh!"

"Mr. Guo, I don't like to hear your words! Although Lu Yi is a rough man, he also knows that Guo Gongze of Hebei is a first-class and resourceful man in the world, and the most important talent of the general. Even Chen Gongtai has repeatedly asked I mentioned you. Lu Yi has already been heard like thunder, but I just saw you today..."

"Just what?" Guo Tu still heard that he was extremely comfortable, but when he saw Lu Yi's turn, a hint of vigilance flashed across his wrinkled face.

"It's just that being famous is not as good as meeting, and meeting is worse than being famous!" Lu Yi said loudly, his tone full of sincerity.

Guo Tu's wrinkled face immediately stretched out, rippling in circles.It's like a flower is blooming.

"My lord, I heard that there are many counselors in Hebei, and there are no less than dozens of outstanding ones. It is impossible to agree on which one is better. My lord can spot Guo Junshi's extraordinaryness among the crowd and entrust him with a heavy responsibility. It can be seen that my lord has a bright eye. Lu Yi admires..."

The following time was almost entirely Lu Yi's speech alone.As long as the people around Yuan Tan were a little more eye-catching, he would not hesitate to praise them.

The focus is naturally Yuan Tan's right-hand man, Guo Tu and Guo Gongze.

Through Zhen Yan's mouth, Lu Yi already knew that it was probably not Yuan Tan who wanted to fight with him, but Guo Tu who was jealous of his ability and wanted to show him off.

Naturally, Lu Yi wanted to focus on taking care of him, and flattered him all over the place, until Guo Tu photographed one Buddha was born and two Buddhas were born.I am so happy that I can't find North.

In the end, he almost wanted to introduce Lu Yi as a lifelong confidant, the more he looked at Lu Yi, the more pleasing to his eyes.In the end, Guo Tu was still thin-skinned, and couldn't stand Lu Yi's increasingly nasty flattery, so he hurriedly coughed.Signal Yuan Tan with his eyes.

Lu Yi's mind was clear, and after a little guessing, he knew that it was time to start talking about serious business.Also stop talking and make a solemn gesture.Zhen Yan couldn't stand Lu Yi's nasty flattery for a long time, so she ran away early.

There were no outsiders sitting here, so Yuan Tan put away his smiling face and said to Lu Yi with a serious face: "General Lu, I am very happy that the Bingzhou Army can take refuge with me. However, there are some things that I must ask clearly. , please don’t blame the general.”

"Young master, feel free to ask, Lu Yi will know everything, and you can talk endlessly!" Lu Yi clasped his hands.Although he is on an equal footing with Yuan Tan, after all, it is not good for Lu Yi to be too strong.

"Okay, then I'll just say it straight. General Lu, we all know the situation of the Bingzhou Army. Now that Marquis Wen has passed away, although your soldiers and horses are excellent, you have no place to stand. Why don't you just submit to me completely? Could it be that Brother Lu returned Any concerns?"

When Lu Yi heard this, he was relieved.Before coming, he had already discussed with Chen Gong and others, and he was already prepared for this.

Lu Yi's complexion changed, and he looked up at the sky.Just when Yuan Tan thought that Lu Yi was thinking about his words.Lu Yi's body suddenly exuded a murderous aura.

Yuan Tan was so frightened that he almost thought that Lu Yi was up to no good and wanted to assassinate him.Guo Tu was also nervous for a while, and couldn't help but open his mouth to call for the guards.

Fortunately, apart from his intimidating aura, Lu Yi didn't do anything extra.Yuan Tan felt a little worried, and carefully probed, "General Lu, what did I say wrong?"

Yuan Tan had to be careful, none of his generals was an enemy of Lu Yi, and Lu Bu was unique in the world, with a great reputation, as his subordinate, he was destined to be feared by others.

"No, I just thought of my uncle. At the beginning, Cao Cao held the world hostage to dominate the world. Only my uncle was unyielding and brave to fight. Cao Cao once said that he would destroy the Bingzhou Army with his own hands. My uncle also said that the Cao bandit will take one day If it is not destroyed, the Bingzhou army will not perish for a day! Therefore, although Lu Yi is not as brave as his uncle, he still decides to inherit his uncle's last wish and fight Cao thief to the end!"

"Now, the eldest son understands my difficulties. It's not that Lu Yi is unwilling to surrender to the eldest son. It's because my uncle's last wish has not been fulfilled. I am unwilling!"

Speaking of this, Lu Yi was already in tears, thinking of Lu Bu's care for him when he was there, and Yan's love for him.

Now, Lu Bu died, and Yan's family was imprisoned in Xuchang again. His heart was full of pain and sorrow, and his true love was so strong that he burst into tears.

"So that's the case, Marquis Wen is really righteous!" Guo Tu observed again and again, seeing that Lu Yi's expression did not seem to be fake, he was finally relieved and couldn't help being sad for a while.

"Brother Lu, it's my fault that caused your sadness!" Yuan Tan also felt a little embarrassed.He originally thought that Lu Yi had the ambition to compete for power in the world, and after a long time, it turned out that it was to fulfill Lu Bu's last wish.

He couldn't help but be in awe of Lu Yi.

The two of them didn't doubt Lu Yi's words at all, because Lu Bu was strong and had a great enemy with Cao Cao.It was perfectly reasonable for him to make that last wish. ,

Besides.Lu Yi's emotions were revealed, and as the leader of an army, he did not hesitate to cry in public, that had to be the sincerity and passion, otherwise, who would do such a shameful thing like crying in public.

Both Yuan Tan and Guo Tu would rather believe that what Lu Yi said was true.

Seeing the success of fooling the two of them.Lu Yi cried even more sadly.He fully carried forward the cheekiness of the later generations, and burst into tears.

But he secretly thought in his heart, if he is like this, is he stealing Liu Daer's tricks, it is said that he is best at this.

Yuan Tan was even more upset. He originally wanted to test Lu Yi, but ended up causing Lu Yi's sadness. He felt very guilty, and tried to comfort him: "Brother Lu, there is no need for this. I, Yuan Tan, assure you that once my father solves it Old man Gongsun, let's send troops to Xuchang together to kill the Cao bandits!"

"Really?" Lu Yi pretended to be pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly expressed his loyalty: "If the eldest son can persuade the general to help me kill the Cao thief, Lu Yi promises that when Cao Cao is killed, all the Bingzhou army will surrender. Time for the eldest son!"

"It's easy to say, easy to say, don't worry, General Lu, this matter is on my shoulders, I will definitely ask my father to agree to send troops to Xuchang!" Yuan Tan was overjoyed. Yuan Shao wanted to attack Xuchang. He had heard about it a long time ago. Bai can still gain Lu Yi's allegiance, which is really a good thing that can't be found even with a lantern.

Guo Tu also smiled all over his face, thinking that Lu Yi is really a sincere person.Not only is he highly skilled in martial arts, but he also has a pure heart, which is really rare.He also said a lot of good things to appease Lu Yi.

Lu Yi accepted it as soon as he saw it, and hurriedly stopped crying.After all, although he has learned Liu Bei's thick skin, he does not have Liu Bei's well-developed lacrimal glands.

Sadness is just a moment, how many tears can there be.

Wiping away his tears, Lu Yi still didn't forget to take advantage of himself, and pretended to sigh: "It would be the best if the eldest son can persuade the general to send troops to Xuchang, but it's a pity that my state army is short of food. A, otherwise, I will be the vanguard and kill Cao Ying!"

When Yuan Tan heard this, he laughed loudly, waved his hands and said, "I think it's something, isn't it just soldiers and horses? I have a lot of them in Qingzhou. When I return to Qingzhou, Brother Lu just take them."

"Thank you, sir! There are 580 soldiers in our army, all of whom are the strongest soldiers. I hope to equip each of them with three layers of heavy armor, each with a steel gun and a sword. By the way , We are unparalleled in foot combat, and even more unique in horse warfare, and we need three thousand horses to do it..."

Seeing that Yuan Tan agreed, Lu Yi hurriedly opened his mouth and said what he had prepared to ask for.

It's just that every time Lu Yi said something, Yuan Tan's face would turn green until Lu Yi spoke.Yuan Tan had rolled his eyes and was about to foam at the mouth and pass out.

This Lu Yi is asking for soldiers, obviously he wants to loot Qingzhou's treasury.

It's just that the words had already been spoken, and Yuan Tan couldn't regret it, so he could only swallow his teeth.My heart hurts, but I still have to put on a rich and powerful look on my face, "That's all, no problem, I'll call it to you when I get back to Linzi!"

"More than that, what I just said was just armor, soldiers' salaries, winter clothes..." Lu Yi planned to continue blackmailing.Zhangkou continued.

When Yuan Tan heard this, he wished he could slap himself.It's nothing to talk about, so I can only laugh dryly, let Lu Yi make another stroke with a sad face.The whole face is already completely green, and the body is even more crumbling.

Lu Yi accepted it as soon as he saw it. He was afraid of provoking Yuan Tan too much, and it would be bad if he turned his back on him.

"It's easy to say, easy to say!" Yuan Tan nodded stiffly, not daring to talk to Lu Yi anymore, and hurriedly said: "Brother Lu, since you joined me in Hebei, it doesn't matter if you don't want Wubao, go back quickly, pack your bags, and meet me." Go to Linzi!"

Lu Yi nodded, and with a rare solemnity, he cupped his hands and said: "What the eldest son said is that I will go back and pack my bags, and I will be able to pull people over by tomorrow at the latest. By the way, the land of Langya is Qingxu The junction, the place where the gate is, the eldest son should send someone to take over it as soon as possible!"

After extorting so many things from Yuan Tan, Lu Yi finally found out with conscience, and kindly gave Yuan Tan an idea.

Yuan Tan's eyes lit up. No one likes to open up territories more than him. He nodded hastily and said, "Yes, yes. If Brother Lu hadn't reminded me, I would have missed this opportunity!"

Guo Tu also nodded sharply, and gave Lu Yi an appreciative glance. Now, he can finally be sure that Lu Yi is really loyal to him, and he has absolutely no second thoughts.

Just imagine, there is that half-hearted general who will give up his territory.

But he didn't know that Lu Yi didn't care about Langya at all, so he should give him a favor.

For a whole day, Lu Yi and Yuan Tan talked happily.It was not until evening that he returned to Wubao with the wolf cavalry.

This time, Yuan Tan, who had no worries, saw Lu Yi off in person, and the two sides said goodbye after sending them off for a mile.

"My lord, what did Yuan Tan say, did he make things difficult for us?" On the way, Zhang Liao was still a little worried, fearing that Lu Yi would encounter difficulties in the tent.

Lu Yi was in a good mood. Hearing this, he just smiled lightly, shook his head and said, "Uncle Zhang, you shouldn't be worried about us. What you should be worried about is Yuan Tan. I think he must be in a difficult situation right now!"

After saying that, Lu Yi couldn't help laughing out loud, feeling inexplicably happy in his heart.It doesn't matter if you live under the fence, you can still make your soldiers live well.

At the same time, Yuan Tan, who returned to the barracks, no longer had the happy look at the beginning, but instead had a heartache on his face, and he couldn't help complaining to Guo Tu: "Military teacher, this is difficult, I forget it!" Forget it, if I really agree to Lu Yi's armaments, my treasury in Qingzhou will definitely be emptied!"

Guo Tu was also very helpless.He secretly scolded Yuan Tan in his heart, why he agreed so quickly that it was too late for him to stop him.However, Guo Tu had a good impression of Lu Yi.He didn't intend to target Lu Yi anymore.So said

"My lord, what do you think of Lu Yi?"

"A man of love! This person has the appearance of a tiger and a bear, but he doesn't have the unruly spirit of Lu Bu. If he can be used by me, he may not lose to Yan Liang, Wen Chou!" Yuan Tan said in a deep voice.There was a flash of longing in his eyes.

If Lu Yi could really stand up to Yan Liang, Wen Chou, the two Hebei generals, his status in Yuan Shao's heart would definitely be greatly improved.

"Since this is the case, why is Eldest Young Master reluctant? Letting go of some yellow and white things, and gaining a fierce general, which is more important, Eldest Young Master decides for himself!"

Yuan Tan was taken aback for a moment, then nodded.There is a decision in my heart.

On the other side, in Bingzhou Junwu Fort, shortly after Lu Yi left, a small incident happened.In the dungeon of Wubao, although the son of the Zhen family was let go, there are still many servants of the Zhen family who have not been released in time.

For these captives, the soldiers of the Bingzhou Army will not greet them with good wine and food like the steward brothers, and they will use coarse bran and brown rice every day, as long as they are not hungry to death.

Although the merchants traveled north and south, although they were not angry in their hearts, they could barely eat such meals.Only one person was angry.

This person was none other than Xia Houde who had been captured by Lu Yi since Xiapi.

Xia Houde was extremely depressed. A good son of a family has been reduced to a prisoner.Forget it, anyway, I used to toss with the Bingzhou Army, and I could always eat a meal of white rice.

Who knew that when he arrived at Wubao, Lu Yi completely forgot about this person.After the people from Zhen's family were imprisoned, the soldiers who guarded Lu Bu deliberately neglected them because they had enmity with Hebei when Lu Bu was alive, and sent them some poor food.

Poor Xia Houde suffered misfortune, and he was also unlucky, eating chaff every day.The dignified son of a family, how could he have suffered such crimes? After suffering for a few days, he finally couldn't bear it, and begged the guards for some better food.

The soldiers of the Bingzhou Army are not fuel-efficient lamps. If Lu Yi's military orders were not strict, this group of people would be the most brutal desperadoes, and they would not give Xia Houde a good face.

Throwing down two bare bones, he said that he would like to gnaw or not.

Now, Xia Houde is also angry.How could he endure such humiliation since he was a child, broke free from the rope, wounded several guards, and rushed out of the dungeon.

When Lu Yi came back, he happened to see Xia Houde rushing out of the dungeon and being surrounded by people, his expression immediately darkened.
