Chapter 162: Xu Chu takes refuge
In a battle with the enemy on the battlefield, Lu Bu rarely uses all his strength, because there will be many emergencies on the battlefield, and it is correct to leave three points of strength to deal with it, even if Lu Bu uses seven points of martial arts on the battlefield, it is also an existence that ordinary generals can only look up to.
Now in the Xuzhou army, Lu Bu's every move contains ninety percent of his strength.
When a powerful general fights with Lu Bu, he can feel the strength of Lu Bu's strength, and a military general with exquisite moves against Lu Bu will also be amazed by Lu Bu's moves.
In this way, Xu Chu endured not only Lu Bu's strong strength, but also the subtlety between the changes of the halberd, and if he was not careful, he would be in danger of failure.
As the battle continued, the shock in Xu Chu's heart became stronger and stronger, and he was sure that when he fought in the past, Lu Bu had not used all his strength, and perhaps it was the same now.
This made Xu Chu a little depressed, and he was a dignified general, and he didn't even have a specific understanding of the enemy's strength.
When the martial arts reach the level of Xu Chu, even in the face of powerful generals, they can deal with it with ease, but facing Lu Bu is like facing a mountain, which is unshakable.
In the thirtieth combination, the painting halberd swung the long knife away and stayed three inches away from Xu Chu's chest, and Xu Chu could even feel the grim meaning emanating from the painting halberd.
"Ben is going to lose." The long knife in Xu Chu's hand was released, his arrogant head was lowered, and failing in the most comfortable place was also a big blow to him.
Lu Bu put away the halberd and said, "Since you have failed, you must fulfill your previous promise, and you will be the deputy general of General Cao Xing for the time being."
Xu Chu asked, "Isn't Wen Hou afraid that Ben will pretend to take refuge and defect in the future." ”
"Haha, since Ben Hou dares to appoint you, he has enough confidence, and now the situation in Yanzhou, following behind Cao Cao, will not have a good result, but Ben Hou can give you a brighter future." Lu Bu laughed.
Xu Chu asked these words, which means that he has accepted such a result.
"The last general will visit Wen Hou, I have offended my words before, please punish Wen Hou." Xu Chu turned over and dismounted and saluted solemnly.
Lu Bu stepped forward and helped Xu Chu up and said, "General Xu's martial arts are not weak, with General Xu's help, it is not difficult to pacify Yanzhou." ”
When the generals of the Xuzhou army saw this scene, they also showed joy, and added a fierce general to the army, which not only weakened the enemy's strength when facing the enemy, but also caused damage to the enemy.
Xu Chu said, "Wen Hou, there will be a request at the end." ”
"But it doesn't hurt to say it." After getting Xu Chu's refuge, Lu Bu was in a good mood, it was easy to kill a fierce general, but it was difficult to train a fierce general.
"Gong Cao has the grace of knowing the last general, when Wen Hou fights Cao Gong, the last general will not make a move, please understand Wen Hou." Xu Chu said.
Lu Budao: "General Xu's move is affectionate and righteous, and Benhou agreed." ”
"Thank you, Wenhou." Xu Chu hugged his fist.
Xu Chu took refuge in Cao Cao not long ago, and was able to give Cao Cao a heavy responsibility, which is also the reason why Xu Chu worked hard for Cao Cao, and Lu Bu's martial arts made Xu Chu admire, he didn't want to die in the Xuzhou army like this, how many years of diligent martial arts, now is the time to show his strength, he has to face death, and he will not be willing to put it on anyone.
"Congratulations to the general for winning this fierce general." The generals in the army stepped forward to congratulate him, and they also had a lot of praise for Xu Chu.
was able to hold on to Lu Bu for thirty rounds before he was defeated, Xu Chu's strength was definitely the top in the Xuzhou army, and the fierce generals who could only be subdued by Lu Bu personally were worthy of their attention.
Lu Bu introduced the generals in the army to Xu Chu, and Xu Chu saluted one by one, and the etiquette was very thoughtful.
"Zhongkang took refuge, Ben Hou was very happy, and today he set up a banquet in the army to celebrate, but each person can only drink two bowls." Lu Budao.
Everyone claimed that Lu Bu governed the army strictly, and during the march and battle, the officers and soldiers in the army could not drink alcohol, which was deeply experienced by the generals who followed Lu Bu at the beginning, if you violate the military order, Lu Bu will not be tolerated because of your identity.
Being able to make an exception for Xu Chu's refuge is enough to see that Lu Bu attaches great importance to Xu Chu.
After Cao Xing stepped forward and explained in a low voice, Xu Chu's heart warmed, talented people, what he was most afraid of was not being reused, after all, he was a general under Cao Cao before, and after taking refuge in Lu Bu, it was reasonable to be despised by the generals in the army, and the same thing was also true in the Cao army.
Lu Bu was able to make an exception for him, which made Xu Chu feel Lu Bu's attention.
Defecting to Lu Bu from Cao Cao will be the most important choice in Xu Chu's life, and when he meets Cao Jun's generals in the future, Xu Chu will inevitably feel inferior, but it does not prevent Xu Chu from fighting for Lu Bu.
Lu Bu is the number one fierce general in the world, with a good reputation, and he behaves so boldly, if he takes refuge in such a fierce general, any military general will not have too much rejection.
Cao Xing, who had spoken coldly to Xu Chu before, was very eager at this time, introducing Xu Chu to the situation of the generals in the army.
Xu Chu served as the deputy general, Cao Xing was also quite excited, Xu Chu's martial arts were strong, he knew it, but as the general who followed Lu Bu at the beginning, Cao Xing naturally hoped that Lu Bu's strength could be stronger.
As for saying that Xu Chu's rise will affect Cao Xing's position in the future, it is not within Cao Xing's consideration for the time being.
"This is General Li Dian, who was a general under Cao Cao in the past, and made a lot of contributions after defecting to Wenhou, and is now one of the ten great generals in the Xuzhou army." Cao Xuan introduced.
Xu Chu stepped forward to be polite, perhaps because he was also a general under Cao Cao's account in the past, and there was no hatred between the two, but a sense of intimacy.
That night, in addition to the generals on guard in the Xuzhou army, the rest of the generals went to the Chinese army for a banquet.
On top of the banquet, it was also quite lively.
Lu Bu set his eyes on Guo Jiadao, "This time I can get such a fierce general's help, it is the credit of filial piety." ”
Guo Jiadao: "It is the Marquis of Wen who bravely makes General Xu Chu obey." ”
"Haha, in the future, Fengxiao does not need to be so modest and cautious in front of Benhou, when Fengxiao came to Jizhou, how debauched and uninhibited." Lu Bu said with a smile.
Guo Jia's heart moved slightly, Lu Bu's words were not false in the slightest, he could feel it.
Under Lu Bu, Guo Jia has received a lot of attention, from this time to Yanzhou, Lu Bu will often ask his opinions, it can be seen, useful suggestions, Lu Bu will listen, this is too different from the arrogant generals in the eyes of outsiders.
In front of the enemy, Lu Bu is arrogant and ruthless, but when facing his own people, Lu Bu will show something different.
"Etiquette cannot be abolished." Guo Jiadao.
