Two hundred and seventy-seven Meng Zhuo won't blame me?
After having a meal and drinking, he got three thousand soldiers and food, grass and supplies, and expanded the army to six thousand. His strength was initially restored, and Lu Bu's confidence greatly enhanced.
Then, after discussing with everyone under his command, he headed south from Hanoi County, entered Henan Yin's territory, marched to Kaifeng, then turned east, entered Chenliu County, and met Zhang Miao.
Zhang Miao felt a little uneasy when he learned that Lu Bu was bringing an army of 6,000 people to visit him, and he thought that Lu Bu was following Yuan Shao's order to attack him.
As a result, Zhang Miao received a reply from Lu Bu, who scolded Yuan Shao for burning the bridge across the river.
He said that Yuan Shao drove him away from Jizhou, and he had no choice but to go to Henoi. He finally decided to go south to Jingzhou and surrender to Liu Biao, and come to see him and thank Zhang Miao for his kindness to him.
General Lu Bu stationed his army some distance from Chenliu County, and then brought his personal guard Gao Shun and a few personal soldiers to pay homage to Zhang Miao.
Seeing this, Zhang Miao felt a little more at ease.
Zhang Miao's younger brother Zhang Chao was in Chenliu County at this time.
After the disbandment of the Dong Alliance, he never returned to Guangling, but stayed in Zhang Miao's Chenliu County and helped Zhang Miao.
Because Zhang Miao felt that he could not cope with the situation alone in Chenliu County.
Especially after Guo Peng entered Yanzhou to take charge of Yanzhou, although he had no conflict with Guo Peng in the past, his relationship was not good.
Guo Peng sent someone to comfort him, but still asked him to be the prefect of Chenliu without interfering in his territory, which made him feel a little relieved.
Now he likes to make friends in Chenliu.
After creating the reputation of one of the eight chefs, I feel more and more importantly, especially in troubled times, one more friend, one more path, right?
So even Lu Bu was willing to date, as if it was an extra path.
Now facing Lu Bu’s visit again, Zhang Miao felt it was okay, but Zhang Chao was a little suspicious.
"If Lu Bu wants to go to Jingzhou, he will go to Jingzhou. If he wants to visit his elder brother, he will visit his elder brother and bring the soldiers to Jingzhou to visit his elder brother. What does it mean?"
After reading Lu Bu's greetings, Zhang Miao no longer doubted this.
"Don't think of Lu Fengxian as a jackal and a wolf."
Zhang Miao comforted his younger brother: "Lu Fengxian is also a person who has made contributions to the country. Before, we drank and chatted, and Lu Fengxian was also a generous person. He should consider it as multiple exchanges and multiple friends. If he gained a foothold in Jingzhou, wouldn't we have another way?"
"Say that's it."
Zhang Chao frowned and said, "I always feel uneasy."
"Haha, I'm thinking too much."
Zhang Miao comforted his younger brother and sent someone to invite Lu Bu into the city to meet him and hold a banquet to entertain Lu Bu.
Zhang Chao felt uneasy in private, so he selected heroes from the army to enter Chenliu's defense.
However, just like what Zhang Miao thought, Lu Bu scolded Yuan Shao for crossing the river and destroying bridges at the banquet, saying that he fought several times for Yuan Shao, defeated the black bandit Zhang Yan, and helped Yuan Shao stabilize Jizhou. As a result, once the battle was over, Yuan Shao would drive him away.
Is this something that people can do?
While drinking, Zhang Miao felt very happy when he heard Lu Bu scolding Yuan Shao. Not only did he and Yuan Shao have conflicts in their political positions, but their private relationships also broke down.
He heard that Yuan Shao hated him and wanted to send a killer to kill him several times, but he did not dare to take action because he was afraid of Guo Peng's military attack. Now, after Lu Bu said this, he felt that Yuan Shao was a rabbit's tail could not grow.
"Yuan Benchu did not serve the emperor, and his ambition was obvious. In my opinion, all the princes in the world should gather together to attack Yuan Shao. Unfortunately, the people in the world are afraid of his name as the three emperors of the four generations, fearing that they will be condemned, and not daring to fight against the thief. It is very hateful!"
Zhang Miao hated Yuan Shao deeply, and now he kept cursing.
Lu Bu kept scolding Yuan Shao, and the two of them sang together, which was quite interesting.
Zhang Chao was drinking while watching Lu Bu and Zhang Miao sing double acts, then his eyes turned and saw Gao Shun, the personal guard brought by Lu Bu.
He had no expression on his face, did not speak, did not drink, and only ate meat. While eating meat, he was watching Lu Bu, who was singing a double act with Zhang Miao, and observed the situation in the entire banquet hall, looking a bit vigilant.
Nothing special, he is a relatively competent personal guard.
It is probably one of the elite group of personal guards who charge together with Lu Bu.
Zhang Chao felt a little relieved and didn't think there was anything wrong.
After three consecutive days, Zhang Miao held a banquet to invite Lu Bu, and the two of them had a great time eating and drinking.
After drinking too much, Lu Bu slept carelessly in Zhang Miao's mansion. He also asked Zhang Miao to have a woman play with him. He also brought Zhang Miao together, which didn't look like he was going to do a big thing at all.
Zhang Chao gradually stopped doubting Lu Bu, thinking that Lu Bu was just a shameless person and nothing else was a big deal.
After eating and drinking at Zhang Miao's mansion for four days, on the fifth day, Lu Bu returned to the military camp to rectify and invited Zhang Miao to his camp on the sixth day. He also wanted to hold a banquet to thank Zhang Miao for the hospitality, and then he was about to leave Chenliu and go south to Jingzhou.
Zhang Miao agreed immediately.
On the sixth day, Zhang Miao was dressing and had to take some gifts to Lu Bu's military camp to bid farewell to Lu Bu. Zhang Chao felt a little uneasy and hoped that Zhang Miao would bring more troops.
"Fengxian treats me with sincerity. When I come to my mansion, I only bring dozens of personal soldiers. Do I have to bring all Chenliu's troops to see Fengxian off?"
Zhang Miao was very dissatisfied: "If you make friends, you should not be suspicious, hurt others and yourself!"
Zhang Chao had nothing to say, so he had to stop interfering and stayed in Chenliu County to deal with some matters in the county instead of Zhang Miao.
Zhang Miao happily brought a big cart to Lu Bu's military camp. Lu Bu brought people from all over the world to greet Zhang Miao.
Seeing that Zhang Miao had brought so many gifts, Lu Bu was very happy. He held Zhang Miao's hand and chatted with him, entered the handsome tent in the military camp, drank, had fun and listened to music.
Zhang Miao's accompanying guards were also given wine and food by Lu Bu, and they were very happy to eat and drink in other places.
After three rounds of drinking, Lu Bu got off the main seat and sat next to Zhang Miao, holding Zhang Miao's hand, with a look of regret on his face.
"Meng Zhuo, you are such a kind person. Bu came out of Chang'an and was wandering all the way and was driven away everywhere. Only you are willing to receive me and invite me to drink. You are such a kind person..."
Lu Bu leaned against Zhang Miao, leaned his head on Zhang Miao's shoulder, closed his eyes, looked drunk, and looked like he was drunk.
Zhang Miao laughed, held Lu Bu's hand, and said, "It is my blessing to be able to make friends with a hero like Fengxian. Zhang has no other skills, he just likes to make friends with a hero."
"Hahahaha, Meng Zhuo said it well! I am a hero!"
Lu Bu opened his eyes and looked at the top of the handsome tent: "Meng Zhuo, do you know? If you have something you don't care about me, I will feel better... But you treat me so well, just like Ding Jianyang, and I feel bad.
Meng Zhuo, people in the world call me a thief who is betrayal, but they don’t know that many times I dreamed at night, I could dream of Ding Jianyang asking me, asking me why I wanted to kill him, and asking me if he treated me badly, so that I wanted to kill him.
I know, no, he has no place to treat me badly, but I can't do anything. If I don't kill Ding Jianyang, I will die. I don't want to die. I want to live, but if I want to live, I have to kill Ding Jianyang. Who asked him to take me to Luoyang? Meng Zhuo, do you think I did the right thing?"
Zhang Miao seemed not to realize anything, just sighed.
"In that case, where is right and wrong? There are only two options: survival and death. Fengxian chooses survival and death. It is criticized by others. But think about it. If it were those people, they might not be able to do better than Fengxian. They are just lucky and are not in Luoyang."
Hearing Zhang Miao say this, Lu Bu sighed, sat up straight, and held Zhang Miao's hand tightly.
"Meng Zhuo, you understand me, you really understand me. How come I don't feel pain at all when doing that kind of thing? But there is no way. I want to live, Ding Jianyang will forgive me, right?"
"If Ding Gong knew about it under the spring, he would definitely understand Fengxian's difficulties, right?"
Zhang Miao felt a little confused after drinking too much.
"Then Meng Zhuo will understand my difficulties, right?"
Lu Bu stared at Zhang Miao.
Zhang Miao smiled when he heard this.
"I naturally understand Fengxian's difficulties."
"Meng Zhuo wouldn't blame me, right?"
Lu Bu asked again.
"Hahaha, why would I blame Fengxian?"
Zhang Miao patted Lu Bu's back of his hand and said with a laugh.
"That's good, that's good, hahahaha!"
