On the deck of the warship, looking at the only ten remaining Iron Knight guards behind him, Lu Bu sighed slightly.

"Fengxian, the deceased is gone, we still need to look forward." Chen Gong, who was beside him, saw the loneliness on his face and comforted him softly.

Noticing Chen Gong's address to Lu Bu, Zhou Yu remained silent but was slightly certain in his heart.

The corners of Lu Bu's mouth showed a trace of bitterness when he heard this, but he did not have the slightest dissatisfaction with Chen Gong in his heart, he knew that Chen Gong's current approach was good for both parties. His reputation and past are destined not to be trusted by Yuan Shu, and he will even be feared, and he may have a chance to be used if he is lonely and low-key. nodded slightly: "Thanks to Gong Yuan's help, I am already grateful to be able to save the lives of you and me, as well as my wife and children, how dare I ask for more?" ”

Failure makes people grow, and this complete failure hit Lu Bu hard. The betrayal of the concubine, the betrayal of his subordinates who have fought side by side for many years, the betrayal of most of the soldiers, and the betrayal of tens of thousands of troops, but they were almost powerless to fight back by Cao Cao and lost Qingzhou. This series of failures made Lu Bu completely see his own catties. In terms of leading troops to fight, it is indeed the best in the world, but he can only be a general and not a commander, and as a prince, he can be said to be a complete defeat.

When Zhou Yu heard this, he said with a smile: "General Lu, rest assured, the general's amazing talent will definitely be reused by the lord in the future." However, now considering that the general has been physically and mentally exhausted after several years of fighting, the lord estimates that he will let the general recuperate for a while, and I hope the general will understand. ”

Although these words were polite, everyone present understood what Zhou Yu meant. Lu Bu's tiger is a double-edged sword, no matter how big Yuan Shu's heart is, it is impossible to use it with such confidence, at least he must secretly observe and refrigerate for a period of time.

"Thank you so much Yuan Gong. It just so happened that I was a little tired from fighting for years during this time, and I didn't have time to accompany my wife and daughter, so it was very good. Lu Bu was obviously mentally prepared, and he was grateful without complaint on the surface.

Zhou Yu looked at Lu Bu and sighed slightly in his heart. This tiger has also grown a lot after this incident!

Zhou Yu turned to look at Chen Gong and Cao Xing, and asked, "Brother Gongtai, General Cao Xuan, I don't know what the two of you think next?" ”

Hearing this, Chen Gong bowed down and said calmly: "I am willing to listen to Yuan Gong's dispatch." ”

And Cao Xuan looked at Lu Bu and said decisively: "I am willing to follow..."

Before he finished speaking, he was directly interrupted by Lu Bu: "Renlie is good at cavalry and archery, you can go to Youzhou or Xiliang and other frontiers to lead troops, I hope Yuan Gong can allow it." Of course, if Yuan Gong has other arrangements, it is not necessary. ”

Lu Bu is also an iron-clad man, not a ruthless and unrighteous person. Cao Xing's loyalty to him is in his eyes, and all the generals under the command of the Battle of Huangxian are either against or surrender, only Cao Xing has been loyal to him, even in the most difficult battles before, he has never thought differently. Lu Bu felt a debt in his heart and was moved, so he naturally wanted to find a good place for him.

Hearing this, everyone looked at Lu Bu deeply, as if they had reacquainted themselves with this three-surnamed slave, and then looked at Cao Xing.

Cao Xuan faced Lu Bu's resolute gaze, his heart was full of gratitude and admiration, and he nodded hesitantly with a little shame.

Zhou Yu smiled lightly when he heard this: "General Lu is really affectionate and righteous, since this is the case, it will be according to what the two of you said." I will ask you to make your choice to the Lord. ”

"Thank you, General!" Cao He and Chen Gong bowed, and although Lu Bu was silent, there was also a look of gratitude in his eyes.

Zhou Yu and the others sighed in their hearts, although Lu Fengxian was disloyal and unfilial, he was affectionate and righteous, which was also rare. But it's a pity that in this era, filial piety is the first place, and no prince will rest assured that he will appoint a disloyal person.

In a harmonious atmosphere, the arrangements between Lu Bu and Chen Gong and Cao Xing were decided, and the relationship between the two sides was also harmonious.

Gan Ning didn't have a good impression of Lu Bu, and the two arrogant people didn't like each other at all, so he leaned against the wall of the boat with his chest on the side, and didn't mean to talk to Lu Bu at all. It was Zhao Yun, who was quite interested, and took the initiative to go up and talk to Lu Bu.

"General Lu is outstanding in martial arts, and when he has the opportunity in the future, he wants to ask for a lesson or two, but I don't know if the general is willing to give advice." Zhao Yun said with a warm face.

Lu Bu looked excitedly at Zhao Yun, who was dressed in silver armor and had extraordinary weapons. The scene of Zhao Yun holding a gun to repel Cao Chunhu's cavalry is still imprinted in his heart. With that shot, among the enemies Lu Bu has seen in his life, Zhao Yun is enough to rank among the top three. That shot used speed and skill to the extreme, except that the strength was slightly inferior, and the power of the burst was something that Lu Bu was amazed by.

"You can't do it." Facing the modest and introverted Zhao Yun, Lu Bu hooked the corners of his mouth. The personalities of the two are completely opposite, as if they are one ice and one fire. One is good at speed and skill, and the other is good at strength and momentum, and I'm afraid no one can help anyone if they really fight. However, if he fights to the end, the realm is nearly two grades beyond Zhao Yun, and Lu Bu's victory rate will definitely be greater.

Gan Ning looked at Lu Bu, snorted coldly, and said unceremoniously: "Zilong's martial arts are also among the top three in my Jiangdong, I want to see if you are the number one martial artist in the world worthy of your name, don't lose too ugly when the time comes." ”

Lu Bu said lightly with great confidence: "No one can beat me. ”

Seeing Lu Bu's arrogant appearance, Gan Ning was instantly unhappy. knew that he was far from being Lu Bu's opponent, so he had to look at Zhao Yun hatefully: "Zilong, you must not release the water, clean up this goods well." ”

Hearing this, Lu Bu snorted coldly, and walked directly from Gan Ning's expressionless side back to his room in the cabin.

"Husband!"

Seeing Lu Bu's bloody appearance, Lu Bu's wife Yan and daughter Lu Qiling hurriedly worried.

The concubine Wei family, that is, Wei Xu's sister, knelt on the ground with a ashamed face, and said sadly: "The concubine is not strict in discipline, causing the younger brother to rebel and raise troops to rebel, and the crime deserves death!" Please also ask the husband to punish him! ”

"Alas, get up!" Lu Bu hurriedly stepped forward to help him up: "It's not your fault for this matter, you have reminded me many times to discipline me harshly, but I didn't listen, what are you guilty of?" ”

"We're safe for the time being. Although Yuan Gong may not be reused for me, he is kind-hearted and will certainly not embarrass us. Lu Bu comforted. He also owes himself a debt to his wife and daughter, he was charmed by the Wang family before, and he didn't care enough about the three of them, but at this time he felt deep guilt in his heart.

"Husband, that Qiling?" Yan looked at Lu Bu with a little worry.

Lu Bu smiled reluctantly: "It's okay, Yuan Gongren has the spirit of a chivalrous man, and he won't embarrass us." Qiling is my daughter, so I naturally want to choose a good husband for her, and I will not force her. ”

Chen Gong had planned for Lu Bu earlier, and the best way to gain Yuan Shu's trust was to marry. Yuan Shu's sister-in-law, Yuan Yao, and many righteous sons are the same age as Lu Qiling, and they are the best candidates. However, Lu Bu loves his daughter very much, and he still doesn't want to do so until he has to.

"My tiger girl, how can she be worthy of a dog? If you want to marry my daughter, you have to ask me if the Fang Tian Painting Halberd in my hand will agree. Lu Bu said quite domineeringly.
