Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

Chapter 178 The Talented Mother Must Be Acquired

Lu Bu sent Hu Zhen and Xu Rong to attack Yingchuan. Zhang Mo didn't know which counties they would attack. To be on the safe side, it would be safer to take the Xu family away. Of course, in addition to worrying about the safety of the Xu family, Zhang Mo also had selfish motives. This selfish motive was naturally for the talent Xu Shu, and even Xu Shu's classmate and friend.

As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. The friends of talented people are generally also talented people. In the future, as long as these people are willing to come to Bingzhou to serve, they will be a great help to Lu Bu.

Xu Shu didn't know about Zhang Mo's selfish motives, but his family had already received enough favors from Zhang Mo, so he couldn't let his mother bother her anymore?

He declined, "I also heard that Commander Cao Mengde had raised an army in Chenliu, preparing to attack Dong Zhuo. Yingchuan is rich and is surrounded by enemies. I'm really worried about leaving my mother alone. I originally wanted to take her to Jingzhou."

"What are you going to Jingzhou for?"

Aunt Xu came in with a dish. "You're going to study, and an old woman like me would be a bother. Don't worry, Ma Du and the others are all in Yangdi. They come to see me often. With them looking after me, no one dares to bully me in Yangdi. Just like when the moth bandits entered the city a few years ago, nothing happened."

Zhang Mo said, "This time is different. The Xiliang army is committing all kinds of evil. If you are afraid of causing trouble for Brother Afu, I will have someone send you to Jinyang."

No matter it's for selfish reasons or for the sake of our original friendship, the talented man's mother must be obtained!

Aunt Xu looked at Zhang Mo and then at her son. They were a match made in heaven, talented man and beautiful woman. If Amo had not been taken in by the envoy, perhaps she would have had a grandson. But now... Amo was valued by the envoy and had a large property in Jinyang, while her son was still studying and it was unknown how many years it would take for him to make a name for himself. Aunt Xu knew in her heart that it was almost impossible for these two to be together.

However, my family has no power and no connections. If my son succeeds in his studies, he will need the help of the envoy to have a future. Going to Jinyang may be an option.

Thinking of this, Aunt Xu smiled slightly and said, "Then Aunt will go and bother Amo for a few days!"

Zhang Mo was delighted. "No bother, no bother at all. I'm so happy that you're willing to come."

"Mother, this is not good!" Xu Shu looked at his mother with a strange expression. Could it be that she still wanted Amo to be her daughter-in-law?

Zhang Mo said, "Brother Afu, please don't feel sorry. I have always treated you as my family. I will have someone take good care of Auntie. You can rest assured."

"Family..." Xu Shu murmured, standing up and bowing, "Then I'll trouble you first, A-Mo. I'll remember this kindness in my heart."

Zhang Mo feigned anger and said, "Brother, you are so polite, but don't you treat me as a family member?"

Xu Shu smiled dotingly, "How could that be? You will always be the little girl in Big Brother's heart."

The next day, Aunt Xu packed her luggage, and Zhang Mo recruited Ma Du and several others. These people did not want to surrender to Wang Yun at first because they did not want to be bound by the Wang family. Zhang Mo asked them to go to Juyi Village and join Du Fei. After the Flying Eagle Team was formed in the future, these rangers could be sent to various places to gather information.

After seeing off Aunt Xu, Xu Shu also set off for Jingzhou to study that day.

Outside Yangdi City, Xu Huang looked at the retreating troops and asked Zhang Mo, "Shall we return to Sishui Pass now?"

Zhang Mo turned her horse around and said, "No, we are going to Hanoi to find Yuan Shao."

"What are you going there for?"

Zhang Mo said, "Yuan Shao has his troops stationed in Hanoi but is hesitant to advance. I'm going to go give him some motivation!"

Xu Huang looked embarrassed. "The general has ordered you to return after you finish your work. You'd better go back first. If anything happens, I won't be able to explain to him."

"Hey, Xu Gongming, who do you work for? Do you listen to him or me?" Zhang Mo shouted dissatisfiedly.

Xu Huang chuckled and said, "Aren't your people also his people? We're almost a family, all the same..."

Sure enough, this guy was trying to betray me again. Zhang Mo couldn't help but roll her eyes at him. "Then if he and I part ways in the future, will you stay with me or him?"

Xu Huang said disapprovingly, "Part ways? Is that even possible? You two are as close as one person now. The general values ​​you more than himself. How could he possibly part ways with you?"

"Marriage is the grave of love. Who doesn't feel sweet when they are in love? But maybe everything will change after marriage."

Xu Huang was completely confused. "What's all this nonsense?"

"Nothing." Zhang Mo said to Amina, "Send a message to Lu Bu and tell him I'm going to Hanoi for a few days."

"Yes!" Amina took out the cloth strip and charcoal pencil she carried with her from the bag at her side, wrote down what Zhang Mo had instructed her to do, and asked Feiying to send it to Du Fei at Sishui Pass.

Zhang Mo tapped the horse's belly lightly and glanced back at Xu Huang. "Are you coming or not? If not, go back to Sishui Pass by yourself."

Xu Huang hurriedly rode up to catch up, "If I let you go to Hanoi alone, the general will tear me apart when you return."

"You are mine, how dare he?"

Xu Huang muttered, "If I really let you go alone, if something really happens, I will tear myself apart."

…………

As soon as Zhang Mo and his companions left Yingchuan, Xu Rong and Hu Zhen's army arrived. They attacked from Yangcheng and advanced eastward from Fucheng. In just three days, they surrounded Yangdi, the capital of Yingchuan. Li Min was unable to respond and was captured alive after the city was broken. The army was sent to Luoyang along with the battle report.

After burning, killing and looting in Yingchuan, the two armies returned to Guangcheng Pass with rich results. Hu Zhen continued to guard the pass, while Xu Rong returned to Sishui Pass to report.

In Luoyang, reports of victory were sent one after another. Lü Bu's 500 cavalrymen crushed the 100,000-strong camp of the Suanzao coalition. Hu Zhen and Xu Rong's 20,000 troops defeated Yingchuan. The heroes of Guandong were beaten so badly that they dared not even breathe. The leader of the alliance, Yuan Shao, stationed his troops in Henei and was even more hesitant to take any action.

"Fengxian is indeed brave and skilled in battle, and a master of military strategy. He deserves a reward, a generous one!"

Dong Zhuo was so excited after reading the battle report that he was at a loss for words. "What are these heroes from Guandong? They are nothing but dogs from Guandong. How dare this rabble rebel against me? Now let them know how powerful my Liang Province army is. Who else dares to rebel in the future?"

Li Ru followed suit, saying, "That's right, my lord, with a good general like Fengxian, you can rest easy!"

Li Ru stayed at Sishui Pass for a few days, but Lu Bu completely treated him as a transparent person. Li Ru found that Lu Bu was extremely repulsive to him, and he didn't want to stay there and get bored, so he simply asked to return to Luoyang.

"I wonder what reward the lord is going to give to Lu Bu this time?" Li Ru asked.

What reward? Dong Zhuo hesitated. Lü Bu was already a General of Cavalry, his title had been elevated to the rank of Marquis of a County, and he was also the Governor of Bingzhou. He had reached the limit of what he could be given.

Dong Zhuo was feeling awkward when he heard Dong Qing, who was sitting next to him eating palace cakes, say, "Father, just give him a few beauties!"

Rewarding a beauty? Dong Zhuo looked at Dong Qing in surprise, "Didn't my son forbid Fengxian from taking a concubine? Why are you rewarding him with a beauty now?"

Because of his own daughter, Dong Zhuo never gave Lu Bu any woman as a reward.

Dong Qing snorted, "Father, do you know that he has been having an affair with Situ Wang's daughter for a long time? I just heard from a servant yesterday that he had an affair with that woman on the day of his engagement."

Dong Zhuo had also heard a little about that incident, but when he heard his daughter was angry about it, he couldn't help but smile. "It's natural for a man to have three wives and four concubines. Fengxian and you are rarely together, so why would he care if he slept with one or two women? He's already more infatuated than many men in the world. My daughter shouldn't be so petty anymore."

Dong Qing bit a piece of lotus cake in his hand and said angrily, "He has been deceiving me and my father."

Dong Zhuo wondered, "Where did you get this from?"

Dong Qing no longer cared about shame. Seeing that only Li Ru and a maid were in the hall, she snorted, "We've been married for a long time and haven't consummated our marriage yet. He told me he couldn't be humane, but it turns out he doesn't like my daughter at all. He doesn't even want to touch her. He only has that vixen in his mind."

"You two haven't consummated your marriage yet?"
