Lu Bu left the camp and saw that Gao Shun's money had reached 8 million, and immediately rushed towards the mountain.
Arriving at the foot of the mountain, Lu Bu began to hunt the demon wolf!
The reason why he came here was to hunt down the demon wolf leaders who could shoot lightning.
At least, he doesn't want the soldiers to find out that the magic wolf can shoot lightning just yet.
Lu Bu also needs to screen and select some truly reliable people to help him attack the red mountain peak.
Lu Bu walked up the path up the mountain, hunting demon wolves along the way and clearing a path. When he reached the rocky area halfway up the mountain, Gao Shun happened to gather the soldiers trapped in the camp and waited here.
The two men led the soldiers trapped in the camp away from the mountainside and followed the clear passage to the foot of the mountain.
Seeing that the soldiers did not discover the secret of the demon wolf leader, Lu Bu felt relieved and let all the soldiers who were trapped in the camp disperse and continue walking towards the portal.
These soldiers trapped in the camp can also hunt demon wolves and earn more copper coins on their way back.
After all the soldiers trapped in the camp left, Lu Bu called out to Gao Shun and asked with a smile, "General Gao, how has the training been effective during this period?"
When Gao Shun heard Lu Bu's question, a hint of excitement suddenly flashed in his usually calm eyes.
"Marquis Wen, I don't know if it's the general's illusion, but I always feel that everyone seems to have improved in all aspects during training.
In the past, it took four people to deal with a magic leopard, which would be enough. However, after training for a period of time, three or even two people can deal with a magic leopard. "
After hearing this, Lu Bu naturally knew what was going on and said with a smile, "General Gao, maybe we have been training for a long time and our strength has increased."
Gao Shun shook his head, "Marquis Wen, it seems not so. When the soldiers walking in front used shields to block the attack of the demon leopard, due to the huge power gap between the two sides, the soldiers would retreat seven or eight steps each time before they could stabilize themselves. shape.
But after training for so long, the Demon Leopard's sneak attack could only knock back three or four troops at most.
Not only these, the speed and reaction of these soldiers have also increased accordingly. It can be said that after training here, they have reached a level that is unmatched outside. "
Having said this, Gao Shun cupped his hands towards Lu Bu, frowned slightly, and said slowly, "Marquis Wen, in fact, not only them, but also the general himself seems to feel that his strength has increased."
Lu Bu nodded, "General Gao, isn't it a good thing to be able to increase everyone's strength? We don't have to find out the reason, right?"
Gao Shun smiled bitterly and nodded, "This world is really strange. Many things that I didn't dare to think about before can happen here."
Lu Bu waved his hand, "General Gao, you have worked hard for so long, so I decided to give you a reward."
Hearing this, Gao Shun was stunned for a moment, then handed over his hand, "Thank you Marquis Wen."
Lu Bu reached out and took out the helmet from Frederick's armor suit, "General Gao, how about the helmet?"
What a general likes most is, of course, war horses, weapons, and armor.
Although Gao Shun didn't like to talk, he was also a military commander. When he saw the shining golden helmet in Lu Bu's hand, his eyes suddenly lit up, "Good thing!"
fo
Lu Bu handed the Frederick armor suit helmet to Gao Shun, "General Gao, put it on first and try it on."
Gao Shun took the helmet with both hands, put it on his head, turned his head and said, "The size is just right."
After saying these words, Gao Shun was suddenly shocked and turned his head to look at Lu Bu, "Marquis Wen, why do you seem to hear the sounds outside more clearly after putting on the helmet?"
Lu Bu nodded, "General Gao, this is the benefit of this helmet."
While talking, Lu Bu took out three more pieces of Frederick's armor suit and handed them to Gao Shun.
Gao Shun thought there was only one helmet, but when he saw the full Frederick armor suit that Lu Bu took out, he couldn't help laughing excitedly.
"I didn't expect it to be a complete armor. It's great."
Lu Bu said with a smile, "General Gao, the Frederick armor suit is not just good-looking. When you put it on, you will know its benefits."
"Are there any benefits?"
Gao Shun remembered the benefits of the helmet, and his heart suddenly became excited. He hurriedly put on the remaining suit and moved around. Suddenly, he suddenly realized what he was doing, and a trace of disbelief flashed in his eyes.
"Marquis Wen, what's going on? Why is this armor so light? Isn't it made of iron?"
Lu Bu looked at Gao Shun's shining golden Frederick armor suit, which looked majestic and majestic, like a god descending from heaven, and nodded with satisfaction.
"General Gao, the Frederick armor suit is not simple. Not only does it have amazing defense, it also has a magical function, which is to reduce the weight by half.
Therefore, although the Frederick Armor suit is made of iron armor, you can only feel half the weight, and of course it will feel very light. "
Hearing this, Gao Shun's eyes flashed with a hint of ecstasy, "That's great."
At this point, Gao Shun's heart suddenly moved and he hurriedly took off his helmet, "Marquis Wen, you are the commander-in-chief of the army. The defensive power of this armor is amazing. It is best for you to keep it and wear it safely."
Hearing this, Lu Bu felt happy and stepped forward to pat Gao Shun on the shoulder, "General Gao, thank you for your kindness. However, you always charge forward in every battle. Speaking of which, you are more dangerous."
Gao Shun didn't expect Lu Bu to say such words, and was grateful in his heart. What's more, Que was stopped by Lu Bu.
"General Gao, since Marquis Wen rewards you, don't refuse."
At this point, Lu Bu's tone paused, "General Gao, how is the effect on Wang Meng's side?"
Gao Shun nodded, "Wang Meng has been leading the soldiers to hunt ordinary wolves at the foot of the mountain. I only come here occasionally to collect money. However, after observing this period of time, I feel that although Wang Meng's martial arts is not too high, he can lead the soldiers." , I still have some insights.”
At this point, Gao Shun paused, remembering what he had seen, and said slowly, "In the beginning, the soldiers led by Wang Meng were divided into groups of five to hunt ordinary wolves.
Later, when Mo Jiang went down the mountain to collect money, there were already three people, which increased efficiency.
Later, the team hunting wolves had become two people. The person in front used a knife and the person in the back used a gun. "
After hearing this, Lu Bu nodded and said slowly, "The people in front use swords to fight in close quarters, and the people in the distance use guns to fight with the people using swords. It is indeed the best combination. It seems that Wang Meng is still the best combination." Very good at it!"
Gao Shun nodded, "So, although Wang Meng is not very good at martial arts, he still has certain talents in leading troops."
Lu Bu turned his head and looked at the plain in the distance, and said slowly, "General Gao, I am planning to form a personal guard, and I want Wang Meng to be the commander. What do you think?"
Gao Shun hurriedly handed over his hand and said, "Please make your own decision, Marquis Wen. The general will not dare to say anything."
Lu Bu nodded, then waved his hand, "Okay, it's time for us to go back."
The group crossed the plain, returned to the portal, and lined up again.
Lu Bu checked again to see the loyalty of the soldiers trapped in the camp, and nodded with satisfaction.
Everyone's loyalty has increased and has not declined.
What Lu Bu needs to be wary of is people with red loyalty.
A person with red loyalty means that his loyalty is already below 60.
Although there is still a certain degree of loyalty, it is no longer very reliable.
As for those whose loyalty has turned black, well, those are basically the people to whom this soldier is most likely to surrender.
Lu Bu took the roll call and used a pen to mark the blue names on it, especially the gold names, and directly circled them with a pen.
"General Gao, these people will be reused in the future."
Gao Shun bowed his hands, followed the portal with the soldiers trapped in the camp, and left this world.
About half an hour later, Wang Meng also arrived with his soldiers, "Marquis Wen, my subordinates have arrived with their troops."
Lu Bu nodded, looked at everyone's names, and then waved his hand, "Everyone, go out and continue to guard the courtyard. No one is allowed to approach except under my order."
"As commanded."
…
Lu Bu was the last to leave, walked outside, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Although that world has many benefits, a world without sunlight is really depressing.
Lu Bu took Zhang Hu and others out of the courtyard and returned to Xiaopei's mansion. Just as he took a sip of the tea soup that was brought to him, there were hurried footsteps outside the door.
Soon, Zhang Hu's voice sounded outside the door, "Marquis Wen, Mr. Gongtai and Meng Zhuo come to see you first."
Lu Bu waved his hand, "Let them come in."
Chen Gong and Zhang Miao walked in from the door. When they saw Lu Bu, they hurriedly saluted, "I have met Marquis Wen."
Lu Bu nodded, "You two came here in a hurry, are you in a hurry?"
Zhang Miao said with a wry smile, "Marquis Wen, those gentry have already sent the food."
Lu Bu's eyes lit up, "Meng Zhuo, isn't it a good thing that someone is sending you food? Why are you still looking so sad?"
Zhang Miao sighed, "Marquis Wen, these people are so active in sending food. They just want us to kill General Gao as soon as possible to vent their anger."
Hearing this, Lu Bu suddenly sneered, "I'm afraid they still want to save face for themselves!"
Chen Gong cupped his hands and said, "Marquis Wen, no matter what the reason is, they have sent the food. What should we do now?"
Lu Bu frowned and said, "Gongtai, haven't we already agreed on this matter? Just find someone to replace General Gao. Is there anything difficult about it?"
After hearing this, Chen Gong sighed and said, "Marquis Wen, this matter is no small matter. Once we have done it, it will be impossible to undo it, so we must be cautious and never be reckless."
Zhang Miao smiled bitterly and said, "Marquis Wen, you must think clearly about this matter, otherwise, it will be too late to regret."
Lu Bu raised his head and looked at the two of them, and asked slowly, "Gongtai, Meng Zhuo, do you mean that you want me to really kill General Gao?"
Hearing this, Zhang Miao hurriedly waved his hand, "Marquis Wen, how can this be done? We two just don't want things to get serious."
Lu Bu was silent for a moment and said slowly, "Gongtai, Meng Zhuo, I have already thought about this matter clearly, so we will do it according to the previous method, no need to change."
When Chen Gong and Zhang Miao heard Lu Bu's words, they sighed in their hearts at the same time, knowing that the matter was irreversible.
As long as they follow the method discussed last time, I am afraid that not only will they not get the support of the Xuzhou gentry in the future, but they will also attract great hostility.
The two of them shuddered when they thought that all the gentry in Xuzhou would target Lu Bu.
The two of them knew very well how powerful the gentry was.
When Lu Bu came to Yanzhou, he relied on the support of the local gentry, so he successfully occupied most of Yanzhou.
Now Lu Bu only occupies a small Xiaopei and has offended all the Xuzhou gentry. As a result, the future is not good!
Lu Bu saw the hesitation flashing in the eyes of the two of them, and did not speak, but slowly tasted the tea soup in the cup.
This time, Lu Bu didn't want to compromise with anyone, even all the gentry in Xuzhou, so what?
And he also knew that Chen Gong and Zhang Miao were from gentry backgrounds, and they naturally thought about the interests of the gentry, so Lu Bu was also giving them a chance.
This time, Lu Bu originally wanted Gao Shun to do it, but then he asked Chen Gong and Zhang Miao to do it because he wanted to see what they would do?
If the two of them still sided with the gentry, Lu Bu would kick them out of the team without hesitation.
But if the two of them would rather offend all the gentry in Xuzhou and stand on their side, Lu Bu would not treat them badly.
This is a choice given to Chen Gong and Zhang Miao, and it is also a test for them by Lu Bu.
Chen Gong looked at Lu Bu's indifferent expression, and cold sweat gradually broke out on his forehead. After a long time, he suddenly raised his hand and said, "Marquis Wen, since you have made your decision, I naturally dare not go against it."
Zhang Miao stepped forward and said with a wry smile, "Marquis Wen, the reason why we came here to remind you is that we are afraid that Marquis Wen will cause dissatisfaction among the Xuzhou gentry and bring disaster.
Now that Marquis Wen has made his decision, we have nothing to say. "
Having said this, Zhang Miao let out a long sigh, "As for what will happen in the future, let's talk about it later."
Lu Bu raised his head and looked at the two of them, and asked slowly, "Gongtai, Meng Zhuo, have you really decided?"
Zhang Miao smiled bitterly and said, "Marquis Wen, now we have no way to retreat."
Chen Gong sighed and said, "Now, I just hope that Marquis Wen's decision is not wrong, otherwise, thousands of people in Xiaopei City may be in danger!"
Seeing that both of them chose to support him, Lu Bu nodded with satisfaction, "Gongtai, Meng Zhuo, I naturally know what you two are worried about, but you don't have to worry. If I am not completely sure, and How could you do it?”
When the two heard these words, they even smiled bitterly in their hearts.
Over this long period of time, how many things has Lu Bu done that he was absolutely sure of?
If everyone was completely sure, how could everyone be kicked out of Yanzhou?
However, since things are like this, everyone is already in the same boat, so we can only continue to sail, otherwise, I am afraid it will be more dangerous.
Lu Bu stood up and said slowly, "If the gentry of Xiaopei are wise, I will not treat them badly.
But if someone dares to cause trouble, then they can only let them try the power of my sword! "
