in addition.

Emperor Xian would never have thought that not everyone wanted to "hold the emperor's hand in order to disobey him."

Yuan Shao already had murderous intentions towards him.

If Boss Cao and Lu Bu also turn against each other and end up with a lose-lose outcome, then history will inevitably change. Boss Cao will not be able to become the "Prime Minister Cao" later, although there will still be people who will continue to come to "King Qin".

But looking at the world first, and then looking at history, it seems that except for Boss Cao, no other force has the opportunity and ability to compete with Yuan Shao.

At that time, Yuan Shao's family was the only one in power.

Even if Jinyang ordered Zhang Liang to die in that underground secret realm before, causing Yuan Shao to miss the opportunity to assassinate Emperor Xian, it is no longer important.

Yuan Shao had no idea of ​​"holding the emperor's hand in order to disobey his ministers". What he wanted was to kill Emperor Xian, or even get rid of all the descendants of the Han Dynasty. In this way, if there were no successors to the Han Dynasty, he could raise his arms and make a justifiable claim.

He proclaimed himself emperor and ascended the throne, and then used his unsurpassed military superiority to conquer all forces, completely changing the world's name.

On the contrary, it was Boss Cao.

At present, his power is far inferior to Yuan Shao, but his territory borders Yuan Shao on a large area. This is actually a very dangerous thing.

Later, some countries in North America were in the same situation, such as Canada, Mexico, and Brazil.

These countries are either in chaos all the year round, and their country will not be a country;

Either it is highly dependent on other countries politically and militarily, or even has no right to speak of its own in the international arena;

Or it will be in a state of blockade for many years, and the entire country will never be able to escape the situation of extreme backwardness and poverty.

The real reason why these countries are living such a difficult life can be seen at a glance from the famous saying: "Too far from heaven, too close to the lighthouse country."

Boss Cao is in the same situation now.

It is precisely because of this that the person who least wants Xiandi to die today is Boss Cao.

As long as Emperor Xian is alive and remains in the hands of Boss Cao, he can use Emperor Xian to manipulate public opinion and political constraints on Yuan Shao, so that Yuan Shao, who attaches great importance to the Yuan family's golden sign of "Four Generations and Three Dukes", cannot arbitrarily compete with his "King Qin"

"Division" starts the war, and at the same time, it can also gain opportunities for further growth.

And if Emperor Xian defeats Boss Cao.

Then I am afraid that Emperor Xian and the Han Dynasty will soon face a disaster, which is equivalent to Emperor Xian playing himself to death in disguise... But Emperor Xian is not aware of this yet, and thinks that he is a little clever guy who is very good at this game.

at the same time.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thanks to Your Majesty's trust, from now on, I am willing to serve Your Majesty as hard as I can and work hard until death!"

After Lu Bu reacted for a while, he realized that Emperor Xian had actually given him such a great official position and power, and he immediately bowed to Emperor Xian very excitedly.

This is not because Lu Bu underestimated himself.

Cao Ang, the eldest son of Boss Cao, was given the title of Cavalry Commander, and he was still a Cavalry Commander in name only. In the end, he had to set up his own troops to become a real official.

However, his "adopted son" suddenly transformed into the "three malefactors" who were on equal footing with Boss Cao.

This result was indeed somewhat beyond Lu Bu's expectations. Even when he stabbed his adoptive father Dong Zhuo to death and took control of the government together with Wang Yun, he was just a "Fenwei General". This "Fenwu General"

He is just a general with a mixed title. Strictly speaking, he is only a fourth-grade general, which is far from "Sikong".

Now, he is prosperous!

However, I was excited.

But he didn't notice the sharp look in Boss Cao's eyes.

Boss Cao is definitely not happy.

"General Lu, there is no need to be polite. You and I have already known each other as monarchs and ministers, and I have long recognized your excellence. Now that you have come to help me, the big stone in my heart has finally fallen to the ground."

However, Emperor Xian smiled, with a slightly childish face showing a smile that was closer than the others, and he did not hide the meaning of dependence and trust in his mouth, "If there is anyone in the world who can wipe out all the rebellious officials and traitors in the world, and return the favor to the Han Dynasty,

In this world, I am afraid that only General Lu... and General Cao are the only ones."

Before mentioning Boss Cao, Emperor Xian paused for a moment without knowing whether it was intentional or unintentional.

It seems that there was no intention to bring up Boss Cao's idea originally, but he had to be added temporarily out of consideration for Boss Cao's face.

But even so, it is still a bit inappropriate to mention Lu Bu first and then Boss Cao.

After all, Boss Cao is now the "Great General" and Lu Bu is the "Sikong". They are both one of the "Three Lords". Boss Cao's official position is still higher than that of Lu Bu.

even.

Even in Emperor Xian's last words, Wu Liang could detect a double entendre, "Sweep all the rebellious ministers and traitors from the world." Boss Cao came to "King Qin" with the idea of ​​"rebellious ministers and traitors" in mind.

Naturally, it is impossible for him to destroy himself.

So according to Emperor Xian's words, the only one who can kill Boss Cao is Lu Bu... It's not like there is no such precedent.

"I will definitely live up to His Majesty's expectations!"

At this moment, Lu Bu was still in a state of excitement. It seemed that he didn't think much about it and immediately paid homage to Emperor Xian.

"..."

Boss Cao, on the other hand, did not say a word, but frowned slightly, and together with Lu Bu, he raised his hands and saluted Emperor Xian.

Wu Liang could see it.

Boss Cao is maintaining forbearance.

Moreover, Wu Liang was also aware of Boss Cao's current situation. On one side was Yuan Shao, who was eyeing him with eagerness, on the other side was Lu Bu, who showed vague signs of "making the same mistake again", and in the middle was Xian Emperor, who was not very good at controlling people.

Emperor Xian, Boss Cao still has to take advantage of him;

Lu Bu, Boss Cao cannot turn against him now, otherwise his vitality will be greatly damaged;

Yuan Shao and Boss Cao have to guard against him, but fortunately, Yuan Shao's actions against him are all conspiracy, and he still has some room for mediation.

There are many crises.

Boss Cao must be a ninja and try his best to maintain the relationship between the three parties. If any one of them goes wrong, Boss Cao may fall into an irreversible situation.

But among these three parties, which one is the easiest to deal with?

Of course it's Lu Bu.

Emperor Xian could not move, but Yuan Shao could not move.

Only Lu Bu.

If Boss Cao can "cleverly" deal with Lu Bu and take advantage of the situation to recruit Lu Bu's subordinates, then this situation can be broken.

Not only did this not have any impact on Boss Cao, it actually further expanded his strength.

But what can be done to kill only Lu Bu without causing a strong reaction from Lu Bu's subordinates, so that they will willingly follow Boss Cao? This is the key point, the key point.

If this problem cannot be handled well.

Boss Cao still can only continue to endure it...

And at the same time.

What Wu Liang knew even more clearly was that from the moment Lu Bu accepted the order, Emperor Xian's plan to alienate Emperor Xian was considered successful.

Even though he didn't say anything publicly for the time being, Boss Cao had already put Lu Bu on his must-kill list.

In other words, Boss Cao actually did not regard Lu Bu as one of his own in the first place. He only temporarily pulled him into Cao's camp in order to unite his strength to deal with Yuan Shao's threat. When the time comes, he will find a way to get rid of him. And now there is

Emperor Xian did this, and Lu Bu's death was brought forward a little earlier.

However, Lu Bu didn't seem to have figured out the connection yet. He was still excited about being canonized as "Sikong", and he didn't notice the subtle changes in the atmosphere at all.

"well……"

Wu Liang couldn't help but be a little disappointed with Lu Bu's performance.

However, if you think carefully about the things Lu Bu did in history, although he is famous for his bravery and is known as the "Flying General", he does have big problems in terms of intelligence and conduct.

He stabbed his adoptive father to death twice for his own benefit. In the Han Dynasty, which "ruled the world with filial piety", his moral character was questioned by the people in the world.

There are even acts of "knowing loyalty and not using it".

I believe many people have heard of the name of the most elite army under Lu Bu's command, the Zhen camp.

The "trapped camp" strictly observes military disciplines, is well-equipped with weapons, and is very brave in combat. It has 700 people directly under its command, and is known as a thousand men. Every time it attacks the enemy's formation, it is always invincible, and it captures the enemy's formation extremely fast, so there is the "trapped camp"

"The good name.

The commander of the trapped camp was Gao Shun, one of Lu Bu's "Eight Strong Generals".

Historically, Boss Cao captured Xiapi and after Lu Bu surrendered, Gao Shun was also captured.

In the end, Lu Bu begged for mercy, but because Liu Bei deliberately mentioned Lu Bu's two predecessors as "adopted fathers", he was eventually hanged by Boss Cao.

Originally, Boss Cao wanted to take Gao Shun under his command. He had also heard the reputation of being "trapped in the camp" and knew that Gao Shun was a useful person. Unfortunately, Gao Shun remained silent because he refused to surrender, which ultimately forced Boss Cao to

Kill them.

This shows Gao Shun's loyalty to Lu Bu.

But how did Lu Bu treat Gao Shun?

Gao Shun was an honest and upright person. He saw that Lu Bu always made some decisions without consideration, so he often advised him: "The general is unwilling to think carefully about some things, and often makes mistakes. He always makes mistakes in what he says and does. He makes mistakes.
To be continued...
