"Don't you want to ask how I came back from the dead?" Finally, Lu Bu looked at Ma Chao's surprised and constipated expression, and opened his mouth to say the most critical question.

"Oh, yes, Lord Yue," Ma Chao was suddenly awakened by this most concerned question, and couldn't help but focus on the weirdest Lu Bu, and said: "During the battle of Puyang, I saw you sitting quietly in front of the 10,000-strong formation, and died suddenly. Why did you return to Chang'an at this time? ”

"On that day, I ran out of energy, my blood was not good, and I did enter a state of suspended animation. Fortunately, Cao Cao did not show me to the public, but instead took me back to the camp. However, after a few days of sleep, my body gradually came back to life. Cao Cao, who was about to send me to the funeral, was frightened, and then under the careful care of Cao Cao's famous doctors, he was raised for more than a month before returning to his current state. ”

Speaking of this, Ma Chao saw that Lu Bu held up a cup of hot tea poured by Liu Xiu instead of distilled wine, took a sip lightly, and continued: "Later, Cao Cao conquered Zhang Miao, and I met General Wu'an again during this period. Later, after Cao Cao returned from Chenliu, he didn't say anything and sent me back to Chang'an. I guess you know the reason for this, right? ”

"Well, I know......." After hearing this, Ma Chao's face couldn't help but become bitter: Of course I know, how could I not know? Cao Cao, this bastard, is packing you Lu Bu as a gift package for favors, and you will return it all to me!

With Cao Cao's eyes, how could he not see that after Yuan Shao annexed Gongsun Zhan, he was about to extend his tentacles to Yanzhou? There is no doubt that Cao Cao also saw that the driving force behind all this was the Ma family in Chang'an! And the Ma family and the Cao family, to be honest, the current situation of incompatibility, in addition to the previous political rivalry between the two families, is Lu Fengxian!

Cao Cao sent Lü Bu back to Chang'an during the critical period when Yuan Shao was about to completely annex Gongsun Zan and take over Yanzhou, obviously throwing an olive branch to Ma Chao, hoping that the Ma family could reopen talks with the Cao family - of course, the political waves are fierce, and just one Lu Bu naturally cannot change the political intentions of the Ma family. But the appearance of Lu Bu will definitely change the Ma family's political measures to a certain extent.

Sending Lu Bu back, this is not only a gesture of goodwill, but more importantly, Cao Cao is also warning Ma Chao: being able to see through Ma Chao's tricks and make such an appropriate response must indicate that Cao Cao has a countermeasure to the Ma family. Although Ma Chao has not yet seen how Cao Cao will make a move, it is certain that Cao Cao's move of 'salute first and then soldier' was indeed used at the most appropriate time and knocked on the door of Ma Chao's heart.

What's more, with Ma Chao's cleverness, he also saw that Cao Cao was not sincere enough, so he not only sent Lu Bu and Chitu back completely, but also gave Wu Anguo as a head.

From Wu Anguo's direct name to Cao Cao, it can be seen that Wu Anguo is not the Cao family's general at all. Even, there can be faint hostility towards Cao Cao. And his hostility naturally came from his master, Kong Rong, who thought that he had a great mission, just like his twentieth ancestor Kong Qiu, who wanted to revive the Han dynasty and fight against Cao everywhere.

With Kong Rong's eyes, he naturally couldn't see the role of Wu Anguo, a deposed general, but how could Cao Cao not see it? Instead of staying by his side and looking at the eyesore, it is better to give it directly to Ma Chao as a favor. Anyway, the Ma family has always been either kidnapping or killing the envoys.......

Therefore, after Ma Chao avoided the important and said that he should let these people know, Lu Bu's face was faintly ugly. And Wu Anguo scratched his head and said, "General Ma, you mean that Cao Cao thinks so highly of me?" ”

"Since this is the case, not only Cao Mengde views the general like this, but I agree with Cao Cao on this issue." Ma Chao looked at Wu Anguo solemnly, took Wu Anguo's wine bottle and took a sip of it, and then said: "A general, not only by force, his training and formation, battlefield insight, promotion and management of the army and other experience, are valuable assets that cannot be ignored, Kong Rong is not a prince, naturally I don't realize this, but I can't let the general's pearl be dusty, if the general does not give up, the tens of thousands of soldiers of the Ma family can be handed over to the general to train and control!" ”

"Like Huangfu Yizhen and General Zhu?"

"Not bad."

After hearing this, Wu Anguo smirked very much, grinned, looked at Ma Chao seriously, and then looked at Ma Chao very embarrassed, and said: "Well, thanks to the general's affordability, I ....... forget it!" ”

Ma Chao was ready to welcome Wu Anguo to join in his heart, but Wu Anguo's last sentence immediately made Ma Chao a little too late, his face changed, and it took a while to react, and he smiled bitterly: "General Wu An, you have a little ........"

"Don't blame the general, the old man didn't mean that." After listening to Ma Chao's analysis, Wu Anguo actually knew what his fate was. With a change of mind just now, Ma Chao couldn't help but misunderstand, and hurriedly remedied: "The old man is now a waste, and he has been addicted to wine for many years, and he is useless. Fortunately, there is also an adopted son to inherit the mantle, and I hope that the hussar general will give more guidance. ”

After speaking, Wu Anguo pushed the little beggar-like young man behind him forward. And the young man looked at Ma Chao with his eyes, and when he turned around, he said to Wu Anguo: "He is very strong, I am not his opponent at all." ”

When he said this, Ma Chao couldn't help but feel a little more interested in this young man. At least, from the short sentence he just said, it could already be heard that this young man already had a keen sense that ordinary people could not match, just as a beast could judge whether its opponent could be defeated by instinct. As a result, Ma Chao opened his mouth and asked him, "Who are you, report your name." ”

After listening to Ma Chao's words, the young man closed his eyes and said, "Han Gugu." ”

"Very strange name........

"General, because this son is a beggar, he can't read, but he remembers that the winter is very cold, and his stomach is often hungry, so he named himself Han Gugu. When the old man found out that he was a child, he was in a deep mountain and old forest, this son fought with tigers and leopards, fed on flesh and blood, was gifted, and had infinite strength, but unfortunately, because he was not very open-minded, he had not been able to realize the law of luck, a body of martial arts, all brute force, but ruthless and abnormal, ordinary people are difficult to be its front. Wu Anguo knew that Han Gu Gu would not speak much, so he explained his life experience for Ma Chao.

After hearing this explanation, Ma Chao looked Han Gugu up and down, but saw that although he was calm and quiet, he was indeed ruthless in his bones, so he couldn't help but say: "For the time being, send him to the Ma Family School, and after he is literate, he will be transferred to the Ma Family Army." ”

"It's better to hand him over to Gao Shun to take over the teaching, this son is very guarded, if he is bullied in the school, I am afraid it will cause a blood disaster. Gao Shun is rigorous and moderate, and he governs the army in a good way, and I am still more relieved to hand it over to Gao Shun. At this time, Lu Bu, who had not spoken much, suggested so.

Ma Chao thought about it for a while, in this era, it is not a barbarian period where a knife can break out of the world, no matter how high Han Gugu's martial arts are, it can't meet Ma Chao's requirements for generals, and Lu Bu's suggestion perfectly solves the problem of Han Gugu. As a result, Ma Chao couldn't help but say: "Lord Yuezhang is really extraordinary, if so, presumably two years later, the Ma family will have another brave general!" ”

"Since this is the case, after the martial arts plummeted, I am naturally willing to give some opportunities to the younger generations." Lu Bu said this indifferently, then put away the Yaoqin, stroked Liu Xiu and continued: "I have lost interest in the disputes between the soldiers and the conspiracy of the princes, and Cao Cao is so scheming, I think, with your cleverness, you will definitely find a way to deal with it." If you wish, make a spare room with me in the backyard, and I will live out my old age here......."

And the reason why Ma Chao at this time can make Lu Bu keep talking about these trivial things so lightly is not because Lu Bu sees through the red dust, but because he regrets Lu Bu's words: Martial arts have plummeted!

In other words, Lu Bu, who has gone through life and death, is no longer the unparalleled god of war in the world, but has truly become a hermit who just wants to live for the rest of his life. Such an ending ....... perhaps, the best, right?

"Forget it, I'll set you up with another clean yard for you to live in. You live in this backyard, and my aunt is in the field, I am very worried, in case you think that it is not enough to be my father-in-law, and you plan to make a 'stepfather', I really can't afford it......." Ma Chao said this, and without waiting for Lu Bu and Liu Xiu to react, he fled as soon as he slipped away.

And Lu Bu, who has been up and down in the sea for half his life, how can he not know Ma Chao's good intentions: Lu Bu really wants to get out of the world, then the backyard of the Ma family is indeed not a good place to live, and the aftermath of strife and conspiracy will inevitably be known by Lu Bu. It's really better to find a clean place and stay away from the chaos.

Therefore, Ma Chao really heard Lu Bu's crying and laughing: "Stinky boy, did you say this about your father-in-law and aunt?" By the way, the Red Rabbit is handed over to you, you look at the disposal, it is not far from the battlefield........"
