Lu Bu was still unhappy about the Hongmen banquet that was canceled for no reason. He was thinking blankly about what to do next when he was summoned by Xiang Yu.

After a whole day had passed, Xiang Yu had not forgotten the hero who brought a major turning point in the decision-making of the Chu army, and when he was free, he was about to be summoned.

Lü Bu came to the main tent again under the leadership of Han Xin. As soon as he entered, he saw that there was more than one person inside: Xiang Yu was sitting on the left and right sides, looking at an old man in his seventies and eighties, and a man in the appearance of a general who was not confused. .

Although the two of them were sitting close together, there was a bit of sullen anger between their brows. They should have argued before and had a bad relationship.

Lu Bu's pair of moves slowly turned around.

With the former's old bones still in the barracks, he didn't think about it except for Yafu Fan Zeng; while the latter...it was hard to say, his brows were somewhat similar to Xiang Yu's on the throne, so he guessed it was Xiang Yu. Uncle.

The identities of these two were indeed Fan Zeng and Xiang Bo, as Lu Bu had guessed.

In order to buy time and make a living for himself, Liu Bang sent three envoys one after another in one day, all of whom brought generous gifts and tried their best to explain Xiang Yu.

Although Xiang Bo didn't know that Liu Bang still had a trick to move to Huai Wang Xin, he also knew that the situation was serious and tried his best to deal with it. Where would Fan Zeng want to see Xiang Yu, who had finally come to his senses and recognized Liu Bang's treacherous face, and entered the puzzle again. It is to stop it with all its strength; so whenever the envoys of the Han army come, it is a war of words and tit for tat between the two, which makes Xiang Yu very annoying.

From Xiang Yu's point of view, one side is a loyal advisor, and the other is a dear uncle who is a close relative.

He is not good at words, let alone reconciling in the middle. Every time he encounters such a situation, he can only be at a loss, and his face is blank.

Lu Bu's eyelids twitched slightly.

This delicate scene seemed familiar.

It reminded him involuntarily of the quarrel between his wife and brother-in-law Wei Xu and Gao Fuyi, and he ended up being one and two big ones...

"See General."

Lu Bu abandoned those messy thoughts, raised his voice and saluted, and his words were sonorous and powerful.

Even if he lowered his eyebrows and closed his eyes, he could clearly feel that the eyes of the three people were instantly focused on him.

Fan Zeng looked at him with the kindness of 'ruzi can be taught'. Xiang Bo's eyes seemed calm, but they were actually full of doubts. Only Xiang Yu's eyes were filled with admiration, and he was secretly relieved.

"No need to be more polite." Xiang Yu responded in a deep voice, and immediately gave his seat: "Sit down."

"Here."

Lv Bu didn't even say a few words of refusal like others, but simply sat down.

"I'm overjoyed to have to vote first, and that vote..."

Speaking of this, Xiang Yu paused for a while.

The position of 'Langzhong' that had thought of had clearly come to lips, but as soon as stared at Lu Bu, who was exceptionally valiant, arrogant, and able to speak, with a bit of sternness in his eyes, his admiration was inexplicably lost. Live upward.

——Heroes are rare, and should not be bound by common law.

He made up his mind only in an instant, Xiang Yu didn't blink, and said neatly: "Fang you to be Lian Ao, what do you think?"

Fan Zeng listened calmly and did not react, while Xiang Bo frowned, looking at Lu Bu with a little more exploration and shock.

What kind of ability does this person in front of him have, and what kind of miracle has he built under his nose? ! Only got such a grand appreciation from the arrogant Xiang Yu?

It should be noted that Lian Ao was joined by Lian Yin and Mo Ao, and was only behind Ling Yin, You Yin, Da Sima, You Sima, and Zuo Sima. Among the military attachés, although they could only be called middle-level military attachés, for Lu Bu, a little-known soldier, it was a step up to the sky.

Just as Han Xin has been in the Chu army for two years, he first followed Xiang Liang and then joined Xiang Yu's army.

This speed of promotion is already quite good in the eyes of others.

Who would have thought that Lu Bu would leap straight ahead and overtake him!

What made Xiang Bo feel unbelievable the most was that in Xiang Yu's tone, there was an unprecedented clear meaning of inquiry - could it be that if the person in front of him was greedy and asked for a high-ranking official again, Xiang Yu would still let him bargain or even agree to it?

Lu Bu's eyes were blank.

What is Lian Ao?

He was very unfamiliar with the official position of Chu State, which was abolished three hundred years later. Although the cheap old man Han Xin he recognized gave him a general explanation, because he did not expect him to jump so many levels, he stopped in the middle of the explanation. , who will talk about Lian Ao above this.

His eyes were bright and full of anticipation: "Excuse me, General, how many soldiers can this Lian Ao lead?"

Xiang Yu was silent.

Fan Zeng's eyes twitched slightly, and he kindly said: "Although Lian Ao has no ability to lead troops, he has the important task of assisting the commander in supervising the transportation of food and grass..."

When Lu Bu heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded.

No matter how nice it sounds, isn't this just a grain transporter!

He can't do it!

He is used to being a general who issues orders, and would be willing to come to the Chu camp to be a soldier again. It is to relive the old dream of advancing step by step in the army and being rewarded with a rank and official position, but for an old enemy. The life of the ancestors came!

Seeing that he has been trapped by this thief, he somehow lost the opportunity to assassinate Liu Bang at the Hongmen Banquet. The most urgent task is to find another opportunity to approach Liu Bang.

Thanks to him for asking clearly, otherwise if he really became a little official who helped this ghost help transporting grain and grass, even if he had to wait until the year of the monkey and the horse month, he would not be able to touch the slippery Liu Bang again!

With this spare time, even if he goes to the front line to be a charging soldier, he will be too dependable!

Seeing him staring at him, looking like he was quite dissent, Xiang Bo, who was worried about Liu Bang's life being threatened, couldn't hold back his irritability. But the battlefield has not yet been reached, and the army has not made any achievements. If it is not appreciated by the general, how can he leap to the high position of Lian Ao? No matter how ambitious Lingyun is, it should not be too lofty."

He didn't know what kind of extraordinary feats this surnamed hairy boy had done, but he didn't know how arrogant he was!

Lu Bu narrowed his eyes.

For Xiang Bo, who is brazen and lacks self-knowledge, it will inevitably remind him of Wei Xu, who is mediocre, but he is especially favored by him because of his relationship with his wife and brother, and finally betrayed more than anyone else because of Shengmi's enmity. The calf is deflated.

Since he looks down on the idiot and the traitor is yin and yang, he just thinks it is farting in his mouth, how can he be angry?

He just said slowly: "Zuo Yinmo must be misunderstood, and why Lian Ao's official position is unclear at the bottom, how can he be so arrogant that he thinks it is too low? On the contrary, he knows that his merit is small, and it is difficult to convince the public to rush to such a high position... General Julu Shenwei, if the general does not dislike it, please also reward a certain position of the halberd, so that you can accompany the general and brother Han."

When he said these beautiful words, the small abacus in Lu Bu's heart also rattled.

Being the halberd master next to Xiang Yu has his own advantages: in his spare time, he can chat with Han Xin, a cheap brother and colleague, and it is easier to monitor the movements of the Han army on weekdays.

Besides, the person who had the best chance to meet Liu Bang, apart from the pioneer, was Xiang Yu himself.

To be a pioneer, you have to risk your life to fight a bloody path, and you may not be able to get close to Liu Bang, but if Liu Bang wants to see Xiang Yu, it must be on special occasions where Jane Cong appears lightly, and it is more beneficial for him to wait for the opportunity.

In the past, he also worked for a long time in the name of Dong thief's righteous son, and was actually a personal servant. To deal with this position, it can be said that he is very familiar with it, far better than the messenger who transports food and grass.

Xiang Yu has heard a lot of flattering words recently, not only with calluses in his ears, but also rarely in his heart.

But this strong man who fits his eyes very well, the praise and admiration with a straight face, is different in the end.

——The corners of Xiang Yu’s mouth rose slightly, and he was in a good mood.

Moreover, the position of the halberd master was originally the position he wanted to prepare for Lu Bu. Seeing that his advance and retreat was well-documented, and his presentation was organized and organized, he was even more satisfied, so he nodded in agreement without hesitation.

After hearing this, Fan Zeng added the word 'smart' to his impression of the strong man in front of him: instead of Ren Lian Ao in the grain transportation department, which was difficult to get ahead, although the official position was higher, it was indeed not as good as the commitment to traveling with Xiang Yu every day. The halberd is more able to enter the opponent's eyes.

Not knowing that his forehead was covered with an unprecedented 'clever' seal, after leaving the main tent, Lu Bu reluctantly regained his energy and went to get the garb of the personal soldiers and the seal in the halberd.

In the Han camp, Zhang Liang, the real clever man, had to make a new adjustment to the plan after seeing that all the messengers had returned in a hurry and that disaster was imminent: to step up and forge a copy of the plan. The imperial edict of the King of Chu, and then dressed up as a messenger from Pengcheng, sent to the Chu camp.

Liu Bang was first shocked, then hesitant.

Whether it is the fate or difficulty of forging Wang Zhao, it is much more serious than the previous bloody clothes, and the bloody clothes are temporarily worn, let alone Wang Zhao?

Zhang Liang calmly said, "Please rest assured, General. As long as the king does not expose it, no matter how false the edict is, it will become true."

In just two days, even if the messenger hurried, he could only reach Pengcheng.

Waiting for the King of Chu to respond and send envoys, it will be delayed for another two days - I am afraid that the Han army has been completely destroyed by the thunder of the Chu army, so what is the meaning of moving and saving troops?

Since it is impossible to delay the time, it can only forge the Wang Zhao.

As long as it is sent out in an open and fair manner, even if Fan Zeng suspects and wants to prove that Wang Zhao is false, it will not happen overnight, and it will gain time for them to react; and if Xiang Yu is angry because of this, it is even better, the anger will be directed at the king of Chu who favored the Han army. Go, they will have a breathing space.

To verify the authenticity of the edict, the key lies in the king of Chu.

As long as the King of Chu is unwilling to be a puppet of a clan, and wants to try to check and balance the powerful Xiang Yu, he cannot do without the support of the Han army, and will silently cover for them.

When Liu Bang heard this, his heart moved: "Then this is the candidate for Wang Zhao..."

He was doomed to die, and he was reluctant to send his confidants, but this trip was at stake in the danger of the Han army, and there was absolutely no room for failure.

Before Zhang Liang could open his mouth, Li Shiqi had already stood up and said, "I ask the general to give orders, and this minister is willing to take this king's edict and send him to the Chu army."
