Chapter 118: Lu Bu people go to a high place

Dong Zhuo has been dissatisfied with the court for a long time.

He has made countless military exploits in the border wasteland, but the imperial court always wants to collect his military power.

After experiencing the darkness of officialdom and all kinds of deceit, Dong Zhuo, who is fifty years old, has long since faded the enthusiasm of his youth.

He is no longer the heroic man who is willing to kill the only ploughing ox in his family to entertain guests from afar.

For decades, Dong Zhuo has seen how those scholars in the court moved their mouths to let these soldiers spill their blood, but the benefits they got were not as many as these scholars. I will always be crushed by these scholars.

Fifty-year-old Dong Zhuo has already seen it.

Even if he made countless military exploits in the border wasteland, the final result was still up to these officials in the court.

And when he was fighting with aliens and rebels in the border wilderness, what were these big officials in the court doing? is fighting for power and profit, and is living a life of drunken money.

Their clansmen can easily become high-ranking officials such as Taishou, and they can make countless money.

Why?

Why do people from humble backgrounds like them have to throw their heads and spill their blood, and in the end, they may not be able to exchange for the life they want.

Dong Zhuo is very dissatisfied with the current situation, and he, Dong Zhuo, can also stand in the court and give orders to those scholars.

The desire for power is already like a seed, deeply buried in Dong Zhuo's heart, and is constantly taking root and sprouting.

Yuan Shao thought about how to drive Dong Zhuo out of Luoyang.

Dong Zhuo's people had already begun to contact the main generals of the forbidden army, promising them all kinds of benefits, and at the same time knowing the advantages and disadvantages.

With Dong Min taking over, the middle and lower-level generals of the forbidden army are all the same as Dong Zhuo, everyone climbs up from the bottom.

So soon, they all secretly took refuge in Dong Zhuo.

"The forbidden army has been settled, but Ding Yuan is unwilling to bow to me. What can you do? Dong Zhuo looked at Jia Xu and the others.

Li Ru said: "Ding Yuan is not worried, his subordinates are afraid of Lu Bu, who is known as a flying general. ”

Dong Zhuo nodded, and solved Lu Bu, Ding Yuan didn't have to worry.

has long been prepared to develop in Luoyang, and Dong Zhuo's intelligence work is unlikely to be left behind.

What the generals in the forbidden army liked, Dong Zhuo asked people to inquire clearly.

Not to mention Lu Bu.

Where is Lu Bu from, what kind of character, and he has fought a few battles in Bingzhou, he has already been placed in front of Dong Zhuo.

Looking at Lu Bu's information, Dong Zhuo liked this flying general and this god of war from the bottom of his heart. In Lu Bu, he saw what he looked like when he was young.

It's a pity that Lu Bu is Ding Yuan's person, and he Dong Zhuo can only become an enemy.

If he was outside the city, Dong Zhuo could use a large army to besiege Lu Bu, but inside this city, a master like Lu Bu would be difficult to deal with.

Fighting in the streets, only a few hundred people on both sides can fight at the same time.

And with Lu Bu's bravery, he can definitely lead the Bingzhou Iron Cavalry and rush into Dong Zhuo's mansion.

and the state iron horse, and will not lose to his Xiliang iron horse.

"Lord, I am a fellow villager with Lu Bu, and I am willing to persuade Lu Bu to vote for the lord." Captain Li Su said.

Dong Zhuo asked, "How are you going to convince him?" ”

If he failed to convince Lu Bu, then Ding Yuan would definitely be on guard afterwards.

Li Su said: "Although Lu Bu is a tiger and wolf, he attaches great importance to fame and fortune, as long as the lord can give Lu Buding what he can't give, the last general will be sure to persuade Lu Bu to vote for the lord." ”

"Fame and fortune?"

If you promise some fame and fortune, you can subdue Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo is very willing, that is, let Lu Bu be the second-in-command on his side, Dong Zhuo has no problem.

But using fame and fortune to subdue Lu Bu, Dong Zhuo was not sure in his heart.

Ding Yuan is the pastor of Bingzhou, and Lu Bu is the chief secretary of Ding Yuan, the second chief of Bingzhou, and has a huge influence in Bingzhou.

What can he, Dong Zhuo, give Lu Bu? Ding Yuan can also give.

Jia Xu saw why Dong Zhuo hesitated, and said: "Although the lord can't give Lu Bu anything now, the lord can tell Lu Bu what the lord can give him later." ”

Jia Xu asked Dong Zhuo to write a blank check to Lu Bu.

People go to high places and water flows to low places, Dong Zhuo can write a blank check to Lu Bu, this is to give Lu Bu hope, but Ding Yuan can't.

At least judging from the current performance of Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan.

Ding Yuan really came by edict, and had no ambition to gain a foothold in the court, if Yuan Shao forced Dong Zhuo away from Luoyang, then Ding Yuan would also return to Bingzhou and continue to be his governor of Bingzhou. And Lu Bu is still the main bookkeeper.

Here in Ding Yuan, Lu Bu couldn't see any hope of climbing up. This is desperate for Lu Bu, who wants to make a difference and make a contribution.

Lu Bu is now in his thirties, and for Lu Bu, who has lofty ambitions, this age is no longer young.

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are already important upstarts in Luoyang City, and he Lu Bu is just a master book.

Ding Yuan had no intention of going up, so Lu Bu, who followed him, also had no room to rise.

Ding Yuan is satisfied with everything now and doesn't want to change. But Lu Bu was not satisfied, he wanted to change.

Although Dong Zhuo also entered Luoyang, he is different from Ding Yuan.

Dong Zhuo is also dissatisfied with the status quo, and he also wants greater rights. After entering Luoyang, there were frequent secret movements. But Ding Yuan obeyed Yuan Shao's orders.

Dong Zhuo only needs to convince Lu Bu that although he Dong Zhuo can't give Lu Bu anything now, he can give Lu Bu everything he wants in the future.

Just like Zhao Hui and Tai Shici.

Zhao Hui also couldn't give Tai Shici what he wanted, but Zhao Hui made Tai Shici believe in himself, and he would definitely be able to satisfy Tai Shici in the future.

Tai Shi Ci personally saw Heifeng Village before he believed in Zhao Hui's ability.

And Dong Zhuo's empty words, why did Lu Bu believe Dong Zhuo's words?

Li Su took Dong Zhuo's secret letter and went to see Lu Bu.

Lu Bu read the secret letter and talked to Li Su for a long time. But he did not give Li Su an accurate answer.

Although Dong Zhuo gave a secret letter promising that he would be knighted in the future, Dong Zhuo was even more willing to accept Lu Bu as his adopted son.

In the face of Dong Zhuo's tempting blank check, Lu Bu did have an idea in his heart, but he Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo were not familiar with him, and with Li Su, a fellow villager who had not seen him for twenty years, Lu Bu would certainly not agree easily.

He promised to surrender to Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo immediately turned his face and denied it, what else could he Lu Bu do?

Even if Dong Zhuo didn't turn his face, did he promise Lu Bu those positions and titles in the letter?

Before Dong Zhuo proved that he had this strength, Lu Bu would not nod and agree.

But this letter still hit Lu Bu's heart, making Lu Bu very disappointed in Ding Yuan, and at the same time had a little thought about Dong Zhuo in his heart.

So after sending Li Su away, Lu Bu didn't tell Ding Yuan. Instead, he found his henchmen Zhang Liao and others. Ask them what they think now.

If he really wants to take refuge in Dong Zhuo, Lu Bu will not go alone, but will go with the Bingzhou army, so that he can ensure that he will not be suppressed in Dong Zhuo's group.

Only what you hold in your hands is your own.
