Hua Xiong didn't have a good impression of Lu Bu, and Lu Bu couldn't have much of a good impression of Hua Xiong. Of course, Lu Bu didn't care about this. Lu Bu is such a person. It's not that he doesn't care about interpersonal relationships, he also knows that he has just entered Dong Zhuo's camp and should have good relations with other old men under Dong Zhuo's command. However, Lu Bu has always been proud and looks down upon most people. At the same time, he thinks it is normal for others to be jealous of him. of.
Therefore, although Lu Bu was not happy with Hua Xiong, he was not angry either, because in Lu Bu's eyes, Hua Xiong was just a defeated general who could not make a big splash. As long as Hua Xiong doesn't interfere with him, Lu Bu will not do anything to Hua Xiong. Winners should be generous, what is the point of bullying losers?
"Haha, General Hua, you don't know something. I'm not delaying, but giving Hu Zhen a chance!" Lu Bu said with a smile, "As soon as we arrived, the battle ended immediately. Doesn't this make people unable to step down! "
Hua Xiong grinned and said with a smile,
"I hope so."
Now that Lu Bu is favored, Hua Xiong knows that nothing he says will be of any use. Therefore, Hua Xiong actually wants to use Sun Jian to teach Lu Bu a lesson and let Lu Bu learn from it! Because Hua Xiong had been under Dong Zhuo for a long time, he knew Sun Jian's ability to lead troops, and he also knew how much Dong Zhuo valued Sun Jian. Otherwise, how could Dong Zhuo send so many people out to deal with Sun Jian? Lu Bu, a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, claims to be invincible. Hua Xiong believes that Lu Bu will definitely suffer at the hands of Sun Jian, and it is not certain that he may even lose his life!
By then, no wonder he is Hua Xiong!
Lu Bu was not unaware of Hua Xiong's thoughts, but he didn't take them seriously at all. Suffered a loss at the hands of Sun Jian? joke! He wanted Hua Xiong to take a good look at how he, Lu Bu, easily defeated the Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian! Now Lu Bu already thinks that he is strong enough. The only thing missing is his fame, the fame that comes from becoming famous in one battle. This battle with Sun Jian is Lu Bu's best opportunity!
Give Hu Zhen a chance? Are you kidding, Lu Bu would be so kind? In fact, Lu Bu deliberately delayed the fight, and deliberately wanted to see Hu Zhen's joke. After Hu Zhen was defeated by Sun Jian, after such a foreshadowing, Lu Bu would take action to defeat Sun Jian. From then on, he, Lu Bu, would be one of the best generals in the world. !
Under Dong Zhuo's command, the three generals sent to attack Sun Jian this time were plotting against each other, scheming, and not working together. It seemed that they were defeated.
······
On the other side, Hu Zhen’s camp,
"Sir, what did you call me for?"
What appeared next to Xi Zhicai's bedside was a dark-faced, strong-bodied soldier who looked meticulous and very capable.
"Xu Rong." Xi Zhicai said weakly, "You have changed a lot over the years, but you probably haven't forgotten your origins, right?"
Hearing this, Xu Rong's eyes instantly narrowed and a cold light erupted.
In this era, is it really so easy for the so-called grassroots to get ahead? Many soldiers who rise from the bottom are more or less related to the Demon Sect. Because of the suppression of the Demon Sect, people in the Demon Sect are often divided into two groups: one is to try to hide their identity as a Demon Sect and do not want to be discovered by anyone; the other is to have no regard for their identity as a Demon Sect and even want to live Be fair and aboveboard.
Li Ru, Yu'er, and Zhou Yu are all the kind who don't care about their identities; Xu Rong, and most other people in the Demon Sect, they obviously don't want others to mention their origins.
"What do you mean by this, sir?" Xu Rong asked coldly. The reason why Xu Rong chose to serve Dong Zhuo was not because he liked Dong Zhuo or how loyal he was to Dong Zhuo, but because Dong Zhuo was a realist and he didn't care about other people's identities and pasts. That's why people like Li Ru and Xu Rong gathered around Dong Zhuo.
Xu Rong was in Dongying, so it was meaningless for Xi Zhicai to talk about his identity, but Xu Rong still didn't like hearing people say such things.
"Hahaha, I feel relieved when I see you like this. Ahem." Xi Zhicai suddenly smiled.
Xu Rong frowned, he couldn't understand Xi Zhicai.
"Okay, I don't want to show off anymore. My current body doesn't allow me to talk too much." Xi Zhicai finally intervened, "So, I'll keep it short - we will lose this war!"
Xu Rong's expression suddenly changed, and he was so frightened that he quickly looked around.
"Haha, don't worry, it's just the two of us here, there's no third party." Xi Zhicai said with a smile.
"Sir, you should know very well that shaking the morale of the army is a serious crime." Xu Rong hesitated, looked at Xi Zhicai and said.
Normal people will actually think about losing the war, but they can only think about it. Saying it will shake the morale of the army. Seriously, this is a serious crime of beheading! Xi Zhicai, isn't he afraid that Xu Rong will report him? Or is it that Xi Zhi just knew that he wouldn't live long anyway, so he didn't care at all?
"I just told the truth." Xi Zhicai said.
"I heard that Dong Xiangguo has sent Lu Bu and Hua Xiong to support him." Xu Rong couldn't help but say.
"We will still lose." Xi Zhicai looked indifferent.
"..." Xu Rong looked at Xi Zhicai and did not ask Xi Zhicai for the basis of his judgment. "Sir, what do you want me to do when you tell me this kind of thing?"
Xi Zhicai curled his lips,
"It's easy to talk to smart people. Xu Rong, your origin and personality determine that tolerance is your greatest advantage. At the same time, you are born in a demon sect, and you are inherently crazy. You can tolerate things that ordinary people cannot tolerate. You are flexible and can do things that ordinary people cannot do; you are not timid and dare to do things that others dare not do! Therefore, you are the only one who can do this!"
Saying that, Xi Zhicai firmly grasped Xu Rong,
"Yes, we will lose, and we will lose ugly. Whether we can win from defeat depends entirely on you!"
Leaving Xi Zhicai's tent, Xu Rong seemed a little hesitant.
Xu Rong has strength, but is a very low-key person. He believes that the higher the profile and the higher the status, the easier it is to be picked out. Over the years, Xu Rong has always adopted the golden mean, which is why he has the current status of neither top nor bottom.
If he does what Xi Zhicai just said, once successful, Xu Rong will become famous in one battle. It goes against his principle of keeping a low profile and his identity will be exposed easily. But if he continues to choose to keep a low profile and choose not to act, if Dong Zhuo is defeated again and again and loses completely, will there be such a lord in the world who is willing to take in people from the Demon Sect?
After being exposed, there is no way out, and he can only follow Dong Zhuo to the end; but if he is not exposed, it will only be this time. From now on, he will always be on tenterhooks and face the risk of exposing his identity. . . . . . In the end, how to choose?
······
Finally, on this day, the boundary of Luyang,
Stimulated by the news that Lu Bu and Hua Xiong had come to supervise the army, Hu Zhen was eager to show his attitude and had to show his attitude to Dong Zhuo who was far away in Luoyang. He led his troops thirty miles forward to prepare for a formal battle with Sun Jian.
On this day, Sun Quan felt for the first time that his right to speak was horribly low. Marching and fighting is far from as simple as Sun Quan thought before. It's not like he has the skill of letting me think twice, so he can win every battle and do whatever he wants!
