Cao Cao didn't know why Lu Bu suddenly asked this question, so he thought for a moment and said:
"Although Dong Zhuo has now been killed by Fengxian, Li Jue and Guo Si led a heavy army to conquer Chang'an and killed Wang Yun.
Now it was them who controlled the government, and the emperor just changed hands and became their puppet.
If you want to help the Han Dynasty, you need to raise more troops to attack the Han Dynasty before you can return the power to the Han Dynasty! "
Lu Bu chuckled and said: "Brother Meng De, Lu Bu is not a fool, why do you have to say these things to deal with me?
Today is a rare reunion between you and me. How about we take this opportunity to talk about the heroes of the world? "
Cao Cao laughed and said, "Oh? Since Feng Xian is so elegant, Cao Cao should accompany him! Come and make some wine!"
Lu Bu chuckled and suddenly drew out the sword from his waist!
Behind Cao Cao, Li Dian, Xiahou Dun, Cao Ren and others were shocked and quickly drew out their swords to attack.
Not to be outdone, Dian Wei and Xu Chu took up weapons in hand!
But Lu Bu winked at Dian Wei Xu Chu: "What are you doing? Put down your weapon! It's rude!"
The two put away their weapons, and Cao Cao also winked at Cao Ren and Xiahou Dun.
Lu Bu used his sword to draw a few strokes on the ground and said: "This is Sili Prefecture. Although Guo Si and Li Jue took control of Si Prefecture with the emperor, they are brave and foolhardy men. Sooner or later they will be overthrown by power. Get carried away.
Maybe it won't be long before they start fighting each other due to the uneven distribution of power. These two people can't be considered true heroes! "
"Oh? Goodbye, Lord Wen!"
Cao Cao gave a thumbs up to express his agreement, but he was somewhat disapproving: You, a slave with a third surname, still have the nerve to say that others are brave and foolish?
However, seeing that Lu Bu was drawing the entire territory of the Han Dynasty, Cao Cao knew that Lu Bu would not just talk about these two people, so he did not ask more.
Sure enough, Lu Bu pointed his sword upward and continued: "The Hu Qiang and the Southern Xiongnu do not have a real leader now. They just take advantage of the troubled times to plunder, but it is difficult to become a great weapon, and they do not have a true hero!
Bingzhou is now leaderless and has no heroes!
Gongsundu in Liaodong is in a corner of peace, and surrounded by Xianbei, Fuyu, Yilou, and Goguryeo in Liaodong. He has no time to take care of the Central Plains, so there is nothing to worry about!
Gongsun Zan of Youzhou plotted to kill Liu Yu, hijacked the imperial envoys, and obtained the authorization of the governor of the four northern states. However, Gongsun Zan had a big temper but little ambition, great ambition but little strategy, unclear rewards and punishments, and nepotism. He could not achieve great things, and he could not be considered a true hero! "
The corners of Cao Cao's mouth twitched.
Now Gongsun Zan's power can be said to be the largest north of the Yangtze River. He beat Yuan Shao so hard that he couldn't hold his head up. Do you think Gongsun Zan is not a hero?
It was like a toad yawning—so loud!
But so far, Lu Bu very much approves of Gongsun Zan and other states' judgment on Cao Cao's form.
Yin asked again: "Since Fengxian said that Gongsun Zan is not a hero, then in Fengxian's heart, Yuan Benchu must be considered a hero?"
Lu Bu smiled contemptuously: "When he was in Chang'an, Yuan Shao was full of blood and wanted to kill ten of his servants to eliminate harm to the country.
Later, he dared to openly oppose Dong Zhuo in front of hundreds of officials. At that time, Yuan Benchu was indeed a man!
It's just that he changed after the eighteen princes attacked Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao became the leader of the alliance.
He is no longer the hot-blooded young man, but has become arrogant and arrogant.
In addition, he is always scheming, does great things but cherishes his own life, and forgets his life when he sees small gains. He is not a person who can achieve great things! "
Cao Cao's mouth twitched, Yuan Shao couldn't be considered a hero? Could it be that Lu Bu actually thinks highly of Yuan Shu?
Because he asked: "Does Feng Xian mean that Yuan Jiujiu is a hero?"
Unexpectedly, Lu Bu laughed loudly: "Yuan Shu is also a bold and brave man, but he lacks courage, is narrow-minded, has wolfish ambitions without long-term vision, and cannot last long!
What, Brother Meng De still doesn’t believe it? Think about it, when he was in charge of the food supply during the crusade against Dong Zhuo, how did he not give food to Sun Jian who was at the forefront, which ultimately led to Sun Jian's defeat? "
Cao Cao smiled and said: "There is no disbelief, Cao Cao just admires Fengxian for being able to see people so thoroughly!
Since these are not heroes, how about Tao Qian, Tian Kai, Wang Lang, Sheng Xian and others?
Did Fengxian think that Jingzhou Liu Biao was the real hero? "
Lu Bu said: "Liu Biao has an elegant demeanor and is good at using people. He can manage Jingzhou like this. He is quite a man.
However, Liu Biao was a little pedantic and indecisive. He was more than a stickler for success and had no ambition to make progress. He should be considered half a hero! "
Then, without waiting for Cao Cao to ask, he said to himself: "Yizhou Liu Yan is good at conspiracy and ambition!
Taking advantage of the chaos in the world, he occupied Yizhou and let Zhang Lu occupy Hanzhong, cutting off traffic and killing Han envoys. This was no different from establishing himself as king, but there were some tricks.
It's just that he lives in a corner. I heard that now he only knows that big things are gathering, greed is common, and the people are fished out. How can he be safe for a long time? "
Cao Cao laughed and said: "According to what Fengxian said, there are no heroes in the world now? No! Fengxian and you! Fengxian is brave and resourceful, you are truly a hero from heaven!"
Lu Bu just smiled faintly, raised his wine bottle and signaled to Cao Cao: "There is also Brother Mengde! I am not arrogantly saying that the only heroes in the world are Mengde and Buer!"
"Me?" Cao Cao was surprised and said with a smile: "I am still far behind Yuan Benchu and Yuan Gongli. How can I be called a hero?"
But Lu Bu smiled and said: "Brother Meng De is courageous, knows people well, and has great talents and strategies. He is by no means a person who has been under others for a long time!
Lu Bu said something crazy, now the heroes of the world are Bu and Mendel!
It's just that our starting point is not as high as Yuan Shao and others. Now you occupy Yanzhou and I occupy Xuzhou. Although our current strength is not as good as others, as long as you and I join hands, why worry about big things happening? "
"You and I...join forces?" Cao Cao looked at Lu Bu thoughtfully.
"That's right!" Lu Bu said, pointing his sword at the simple map on the ground and said: "Brother Meng De, you and I are both smart people, let's not beat around the bush.
You came to fight Tao Qian this time, firstly to avenge your father, and secondly because you wanted to take the opportunity to get involved in Xuzhou. Am I right?
But now that I am in Xuzhou, I will naturally not let you plot against Xuzhou.
If the two of us really start a fight, both sides will definitely suffer, and when the time comes, others will become the beneficiaries! "
As he spoke, he poked Yuan Shu's position with the tip of his sword.
"Brother Meng De, you and Yuan Shu are enemies, and now I have fallen out with Yuan Shu. If the two of us fight together, I'm afraid Yuan Shu will be the first to benefit!
In fact, the two of us don't have any grudges ourselves, so why should we let our common enemies see the fun and finally take advantage? "
Cao Cao said: "Fengxian means...that you and I will join forces to fight against Yuan Shu?"
"That's right! Yuan Shao is currently having a lively fight with Gongsun Zan, and Liu Biao has just fought with Yuan Shu. Why don't the two of us take the opportunity to form an alliance and kill Yuan Shu in one fell swoop?
When the time comes, you, who are in the south of Yanzhou, and I, who are in the west of Xuzhou, can sit back and relax, and you and I can both strengthen our own power! "
Lu Bu said as he used strength to place his sword on "Yuzhou".
