"Tao Qian? Leading troops north?" Lu Bu frowned: "Is it possible that this old guy is here to deal with me?"
Chen Gong shook his head and said, "I think Tao Qian is probably heading towards the Yellow Turban Army in Taishan County.
Tao Qian and Cao Cao have long had a quarrel. Now that Cao Cao has taken over the western part of Yanzhou, Tao Qian probably wants to take advantage of this opportunity to get involved in the eastern part of Yanzhou!
By the way, this time Tao Qian did not go alone, but in alliance with Que Xuan, who was the vanguard. "
"Que Xuan?" Lu Bu looked confused. After thinking for a long time, he couldn't remember who this Que Xuan was.
Chen Gong explained: "Que Xuan is from Xiapi. Not long ago, thousands of people gathered in Xiapi and called themselves the emperor."
Lu Bu nodded: "I see..."
I can't help but admire this Que Xuan!
In such troubled times, a little man with no background dares to call himself emperor when he gathers thousands of people and occupies a city? This one is pretty tough!
Also, Tao Qian was the governor of Xuzhou, and Xiapi was under the jurisdiction of Xuzhou.
Someone rebelled on his own territory. Instead of crusading, Tao Qian joined forces with him?
Does Tao Qian want to consume Que Xuan and then reap the benefits?
Lu Bu couldn't help but change his opinion of Tao Qian. He originally thought that Tao Qian was a coward who hesitated to move forward. It seemed that his ambition was not small!
It seems that even if I get to Pengcheng, this old guy may not obediently give up power to me. I have to use some tricks...
After pondering for a moment, he said: "Call everyone, gather urgently!"
----
At the southern foot of Mengshan Mountain, at the foot of Chaishan Mountain.
Que Xuan rode a tall horse in front of the team, followed by his five thousand supporters.
Chaishan Mountain in the west is not tall, and the other three sides are flat and flat.
Seeing this situation, Que Xuan felt quite proud to point out the situation.
It turns out that being a emperor is just that simple!
He originally thought that calling himself emperor would definitely arouse public outrage. At least Tao Qian, the governor of Xuzhou, would not let him go.
Unexpectedly, Tao Qian not only did not send troops to attack Xiapi, but also wrote a letter and sent a car full of gifts to his confidants to celebrate!
Que Xuan couldn't help but be overjoyed. Even the governor of Xuzhou recognized him, so what else was there to fear?
So he wrote back to Tao Qian to express his gratitude.
The two of them became familiar with each other over time.
But within a few days of the good days, a real problem faced Que Xuan: So many people follow you, and it’s not for nothing that they call you Emperor!
You have to give them money and food to feed them!
Xiapi is just a county. It is difficult to support five thousand people, plus the high consumption of Que Xuan and a group of "civil and military officials" and his own harem of "three thousand beauties"!
Just when Que Xuan was worried about money, Tao Qian sent a messenger again, saying that he would join forces with Que Xuan to attack Taishan County!
Moreover, Tao Qian made it very clear that after conquering Taishan County, all he wanted was the population and land, and all the money and food obtained would belong to Que Xuan!
It’s really like someone gives you a pillow when you feel sleepy!
Que Xuan agreed without thinking, and actively asked to be the vanguard!
Why did he ask to take the lead? On the one hand, he had confidence in his five thousand tiger and wolf troops, and on the other hand, he was afraid that Tao Qian's men would break into the city first and rush in to burn, kill, and loot.
Tao Qian said he didn't want money or food. How could he restrain his men from robbing the city after they broke through?
You have to strike first!
I have long heard that Mount Tai is the highest mountain in the world and the first of the five mountains.
Que Xuan also heard that both the First Emperor of Qin and Emperor Wu of Han had enshrined Mount Tai.
If you want to conquer Mount Tai successfully this time, do you want to be granted a Zen title?
Just as he was thinking about it, smoke and dust suddenly billowed in the distance ahead. Que Xuan hurriedly reined in his horse and looked closely. It turned out that a group of soldiers wearing iron armor came towards this side!
The leader was wearing a beast-faced head-swallowing chain armor, holding a one-foot-two-foot-long Fangtian painted halberd, and under his crotch was a big red war horse!
Compared with other people's horses, Que Xuan suddenly felt that the horse he was riding was not good enough!
Que Xuan's first thought was to steal Lu Bu's red rabbit horse!
With an order, the soldiers behind dispersed to prepare to face the enemy.
The person on the opposite side seemed to have not seen Que Xuan, and still walked forward slowly and leisurely.
Seeing that the distance was only a hundred steps away and the other party still showed no intention of stopping, Que Xuan finally lost his temper and drew out his knife and shouted:
"Hey! Who is coming? Tell me your name quickly!"
Lu Bu then reined in his horse, looked at Que Xuan first, and then said, "Are you new here?"
"Ah?" Que Xuan couldn't help but be stunned: "How do you know I'm new here?"
Lu Bu laughed ferociously: "You're new here, you don't understand the rules! Don't you know you should tell yourself your family name before asking the other person?"
Is there such a rule?
Que Xuan looked at the few cronies around him with some doubts, and everyone shook their heads.
It was their first time to rebel, so they had no experience!
We fought a battle, followed Que Xuan and rushed into the county government office at night, beheaded the county magistrate, and then Que Xuanjiu became the king and hegemony, and did not declare his family status...
But looking at the guy opposite, he seemed to be an experienced one, because he said: "I am Que Xuan, the Emperor of Xiapi, who are you! Why don't you kneel down when you see the Emperor!"
Lu Bu looked left and right, and then a group of people burst into laughter at the same time.
"Why are you laughing!" Que Xuan's face became a little confused.
Lu Bu laughed for a while and then said: "Where does this madman dare to call himself the emperor? Do you know who I am?"
"Who are you?" Que Xuan asked.
"Hmph, I am Lu Bu!" Lu Bu said, waving Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand like a spear and making a POSS.
"Lu Bu?" Que Xuan looked confused: "Who is Lu Bu?"
Lu Bu almost fell off the Red Rabbit Horse: How dare he claim to be the emperor with such a wicked character?
It’s no wonder that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers. Let’s call the ignorant fearless...
Fortunately, someone had heard of Lu Bu's name and whispered to Que Xuan:
"Emperor, this Lu Bu...could he not be the Lu Bu who killed Dong Zhuo?
The red rabbit among the horses, Lu Bu among the men, Fang Tian's halberd, the one who stabbed his adoptive father! "
Que Xuan took a breath: "So...this kid has some abilities?"
"This is the best general in the world..."
"Um……"
Que Xuan pondered for a moment and said, "So you are Lu Bu! Since you are also a respectable hero, you might as well join me!"
"Ah? I'm surrendering to you, Emperor Xiapi?" Lu Bu was also confused by Que Xuan's brain circuit!
"Yes, as long as you perform meritorious service, I will make you a general. How about that?" Que Xuan said loudly.
"Hahahaha..." Lu Bu and the others laughed so hard that they almost fell off their horses.
Que Xuan really felt that he couldn't hold his face anymore and shouted: "Lu Bu! Why are you laughing!"
Zhang Liao roared: "My brother is the Mu of Xuzhou, the Marquis of Dahan County, and the Commander-in-Chief of the Prince Consort! Why don't you pee and show yourself what you are!"
At this time, Lu Bu turned into the embodiment of justice. He pointed Fang Tian's painted halberd in his hand and declared: "Ignorant boy! I am an important minister of the Han Dynasty, and you want to surrender me?
He is so stupid and ignorant of the bounds of heaven and earth. He is just a fool!
How dare an unknown rat claim to be emperor even if he occupies a whole city? Want to know more about the plan to kill the nine tribes?
For the sake of your congenital disability, I will not embarrass you. Quickly dismount and be bound!
If not, ask me if the halberd in my hand can spare you! "
"You Lu Bu, how dare you humiliate me? Today I will use your dog's head to sacrifice the flag! Come on, give it to me!"
Que Xuan made a virtual slash in the air with the sword in his hand, pointing directly at Lu Bu.
