When Xun Yu and a few people were talking, there were also people in the garrison of the Bingzhou Army outside Luoyang City.

Lu Bu sat in his own camp tent, although he was the main man, but his substantive status in the army was still very high, so he had his own camp tent. After sending off the guests who had just arrived, Lu Bu was in a daze, falling into a long stream of thoughts.

The person who was sent away just now was his fellow countryman Li Su, Lu Bu thought that this was a simple reminiscence, but he didn't expect that Li Su also came with other purposes. By now, Lu Bu has clearly seen what Li Su wants to do, he should be here to recruit himself, as for who he is for, he has not yet said, but the basic meaning is right.

This is one of the reasons why Lu Bu is distressed, the first time Li Su came, he didn't feel anything unusual, and then the second time, the third time, when he finally noticed a little reason why Li Su came, he was already in the midst of thinking and distress. Because before this, someone had also sent him an invitation, and that person was Yunting.

Lu Bu was worried about whether he should accept Yun Ting's invitation to leave the state army and join him. Although the official position of Captain Qiang is not high, if Lu Bu is really moved, after all, the authority of Captain Qiang is there, even if he is only a general under the account of Yun Ting, a Captain Protector, he will be able to come out soon.

Because of the Qiang people, what Lu Bu knows is that the number of Qiang people is very large, far more than the Xianbei people. Take the rebellions that occurred in Liangzhou as an example, they happened from time to time, and each time they needed to be suppressed by the imperial court, and the frequency of those occurrences was much more frequent than those Xianbei people who invaded the border in Bingzhou.

In this way, it means that there will definitely be no less battles, and more battles will mean that he will be able to obtain more combat exploits. Lu Bu didn't think about the question that he would not be able to suppress even a few Qiang people, what he cared about was whether there could be a battle, there would be an enemy, anyway, no matter what kind of enemy, it would become the soul of his halberd.

It is destined that the starting point at the beginning will not be high, but as long as the combat merits are enough, then he can get a reward from the imperial court. What Lu Bu cares about is this, as long as there is a ladder that can go up, which can allow him to keep climbing upward, this is enough.

When he was merging states, the Xianbei people he killed, won battles again and again, and the combat exploits he obtained were enough for him to get a good general. But he knew and understood that all his military exploits were corrupted by Ding Yuan, which made him stay in the position of Lord Bo for so many years.

Because of his relationship in the Bingzhou army, Lu Bu did not have much requirements for the forces that wanted him to be loyal, as long as he could get his military exploits and would not be greedy for his military exploits. Yun Ting undoubtedly meets his requirements, and because of the relationship he has with Yun Ting, he has a good impression of Yun Ting, and Gao Shun is still working under Yun Ting, which makes him not mind using Yun Ting as a pedal and climbing upward.

Yes, it's just a pedal. If Yun Ting was only a captain of the Qiang Guard, and there was no way to get any closer, Lu Bu would not continue to stay under his command, and whether he wanted it or not, Lu Bu felt that with his force, as long as he was given an army, then he would definitely be able to make enough military achievements to become the real general.

At least it's much better than Ding Yuan's here. Over the years, Lu Bu couldn't remember how many Xianbei people he had killed, but he was still standing still, and now there was no way to see hope. How could he continue to stay under Ding Yuan and join the state army?

This is a good opportunity, a good opportunity to escape, even from the most ordinary, ordinary soldier, Lu Bu feels that his promotion will be extremely fast. From now to a year later, he can basically surpass his current position in the state army.

Tempted, Lu Bu is very tempted, yes, how can he not be tempted? It turned out that if there was no other choice, Lu Bu would choose Yun Ting after thinking about it, he didn't need Yun Ting's official position to be big, what he needed was just an opportunity.

This is the best opportunity, here in Luoyang City, he can leave at any time if he wants to go, and when he returns to Bingzhou, he can leave if he wants to, and it will be much more difficult than now. Now, he sent someone back to escort his family out, it was very simple to take advantage of Ding Yuan's absence in Bingzhou, once Ding Yuan returned to Bingzhou, it would be even more difficult to send his family out.

The only problem is that there are many old subordinates in the Bingzhou army, and Lu Bu doesn't know if they are willing to follow him, and whether there is a suitable position for them under Yun Ting's command. Although Yunting will be an excessive place here, Lu Bu hopes to do his best to let those old subordinates who have been following him for a long time get better treatment.

This is not a problem, with the loyalty of these old subordinates to themselves, they have not turned their backs on him when they were in the state army, and when he leaves to Yunting, they will not turn their backs on him. At least compared to Ding Yuan's command, in Yunting, they can see more hope, right?

It turned out that Lu Bu had already made plans, this was his initial idea, and after contacting Yun Ting, he admitted that he had been persuaded by Yun Ting. For him, as long as he is given a chance to let the court see his opportunity, then he can let himself be valued by the court and reused.

This is before, and now, Lu Bu is being distressed

Make move. In front of him, there was not only one road, but two roads, and the other one that appeared was still a particularly good one, much better than the conditions given by Yun Ting.

If he heard it correctly, the person behind him who was faintly revealed in Li Su's words should be Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo. Lu Bu had also heard this name when he was in Bingzhou, and knew some of his deeds, and the Qiang rebellion in Liangzhou was basically suppressed again and again because of Dong Zhuo. In addition, in the later Yellow Turban Rebellion, Dong Zhuo also appeared in it, and became the hero who suppressed the Yellow Turban Rebellion and was ranked with Lu Zhi and others, which made Lu Bu pay more attention.

Now that I hear Dong Zhuo's name again, those memories that belong to Dong Zhuo in the past have been opened, accompanied by the power that Dong Zhuo now has, as well as the military strength of Liangzhou. If Lu Bu is not mistaken, Dong Zhuo was already a big member of the party when he was in Liangzhou, and now, he is bound to go to the next level. Moreover, he is not the kind of official who has no real name, but really holds real power in his hands.

Lu Bu had to admit that compared to Yun Ting, Dong Zhuo made him more tempted. The latter, whether it is an official position, or the power it holds, or anything else, far surpasses the former.

Li Su came this time, the words he said, the ones that were tentative, and after he left, Lu Bu still felt that his heart was constantly beating. Before leaving, Li Su intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the famous horse Chitu, the famous horse who traveled thousands of miles in a day. It really made Lu Bu feel impatient.

I don't know why, as soon as Lu Bu heard the name of Chitu, he immediately liked it. Coupled with the characteristics of the red rabbit that Li Su said, it made him even more itchy.

He knew that Li Su would not lie on this issue, and the quality of a horse was also very easy to distinguish for a general like him. Not to mention that they have already made an appointment to go riding together in a few days, and at that time, it will be clear whether Chitu is a divine horse like Li Su's mouth.

For horses, Lu Bu has a surprising obsession, perhaps because of the relationship between not having a good horse, Li Su made him have a lot more good impression of Dong Zhuo when he mentioned Chitu.

Compared with Ding Yuan, Dong Zhuo, who had never been masked, was much more courageous, and it was obvious that when Li Su mentioned the red rabbit horse, Lu Bu understood that this horse was likely to be given to him. Replaced by Ding Yuan? Not to mention that he took away the war horses he captured from the Xianbei people, how could he give himself a batch of good horses?

Lu Bu unconsciously compared Ding Yuan with Dong Zhuo, only to find that Ding Yuan was not as good as Dong Zhuo at all, it was very bad. Although he doesn't know if that person is Dong Zhuo now, there should be a high probability that yes, and it can be judged from Li Su's words.

A famous horse, Chitu, is enough to see its sincerity, and with the little promise given, Lu Bu is already more tempted than after seeing Yunting. He believed that as long as he had the intention and promised to do so, what he could get in the end was something he would never be able to get in the state army.

The only concern is that Yun Ting once said those things himself, mentioning Dong Zhuo's description of Dong Zhuo in a few words. It is impossible for Yun Ting to deceive himself, if he wants to check this kind of thing, he can find it if he is willing to check it, and when the time comes, they will look good on each other's faces.

The question is, what Yun Ting said is true, what will the real situation be? Is Dong Zhuo really so ambitious, will he do something rebellious or just to get closer to a higher position?

Two possibilities, two extremes, Lu Bu did not dare to draw conclusions privately. Because of one of the possibilities, as long as it appears and he chooses Dong Zhuo again, then the result will be disastrous.

Lu Bu lowered his head, stretched out his hand, and looked at his palm. The five fingers are slender and powerful, the joints are slightly thick, and some places on the palms of the hands and the tiger's mouth have a thick callus, which is left over from years of practicing martial arts and wielding Fang Tian's halberd on the battlefield.

Many years ago, he thought that with his own hands, he could achieve a lot of things that he wanted to gain and did not have. Many years later, he realized that no matter how strong the hand holding the halberd was, no matter how unmatched Fang Tian's halberd was, there were too many things that could not be solved by force.

Like the present, like the past.
