Yuan Shu smiled: "Yuan Shao is my relative, even if he is unhappy with me being the emperor, he will not send troops to fight me."
And Lu Bu is an unrighteous person, as long as there are interests, he doesn't care who is the emperor. ”Ji Ling asked: "What benefits are the lord going to give to Lu Bu" Yuan Shu said: "Rice 20,000 stones" Ji Ling was surprised: "Now that the drought has not passed, our army food is tight, and the lord is now recruiting troops on a large scale, 20,000 stone is not a small amount, please think twice." ”Yuan Shu said: "I have urged all localities to collect grain, Jianghuai is a land rich in grain production, and tens of thousands of stones can still be made. ”Ji Ling said: "Lu Bu is now fighting Chang'an, the outcome is unpredictable, once defeated, the lord's 20,000 stones are not lost" Yuan Shu said: "Lu Bu is joining forces with Liu Bei, the odds of winning are very high, even if he fails, he will return to Luoyang."
I don't need Lu Bu to send troops to help me, I just need him to threaten Cao Cao and contain Cao Cao's power for me. ”Ji Ling suddenly realized: "The lord is wise" Yuan Shu smiled again: "With Yuan Shao and Lu Bu to contain Cao Cao, I can firmly ascend to the throne." ”At the east gate of Chang'an, Lü Bu's army had attacked several times, all of which were defeated by Dong's army.Lü Bu gave his troops a little rest and prepared for the next wave of siege.At this time, Chen Gong had already rushed from Luoyang to give advice to Lu Bu to advance into Chang'an.In the war room, Lu Bu, Chen Gong and a cadre of generals gathered around the map, studying tactics, Chen Gong pointed to the east gate of Chang'an on the map and said: "According to the agreement with Liu Bei, we will attack the east gate, Guan Yu will attack the south gate, and Ma Teng will lead the Xiliang soldiers to attack the west gate."
But I found that this battle was not right, the number of Dong troops stationed at the east gate was actually equal to ours, what did Guan Yu do to eat Ma Teng's men and horses arrived at the west gate" Lu Bu pointed to the west gate and said: "Maybe it is the reason why Ma Teng did not arrive in Chang'an, otherwise Dong Zhuo would not be able to go to the west gate without dividing his troops" Chen Gong pointed to the south gate and said: "What about the south gate, there are 15,000 elite soldiers led by Guan Yu, Dong Zhuo has to send at least 30,000 horses to defend, Liu Bei's tiger generals are all powerful, how can he Dong Zhuo relax at the south gate" Lu Bu turned his head to Gao Shun and said: " You send a few people to find out about Guan Yu's situation. ”At this time, the guards reported at the outer gate: "General Lu, Yuan Shu has a messenger coming." ”Lu Bu was stunned: "What is Yuan Shu looking for me to do, is it for Dong Zhuo to intercede" Chen Gong smiled: "Yuan Shu and Dong Zhuo have always had a grudge, how could he intercede for Dong Zhuo, the general should still meet the envoy, maybe there will be benefits to the door." ”Lu Bu nodded, and sat on the chair in the high hall, with Chen Gong on the side, and the generals under the hall lined up in two rows, putting on a majestic posture, and then said, "The messenger who passed on Yuan Shu came in." ”The door of the war room opened, and dozens of guards came in with swords, followed closely by Yuan Shu's envoys, followed by ten other subordinates, carrying gifts such as gold jewels and silk silk."
This is a small gift from my lord, 10,000 taels of gold, 1,000 pearls, and silk and satin, please General Lu smile."
Yuan Shu's messenger said with a smile, ordered his subordinates to put down the gifts, and sent them out."
Go out too."
Lu Bu waved his hand to the guards, and they quickly exited the war room."
General Lu is busy with military affairs, and I won't beat around the bush, my lord wants to establish a friendship relationship with the general."
The messenger said."
Oh, could it be that Yuan Shu is going to send troops to attack Chang'an to help me," Lu Bu asked."
What do you think" Lu Bu turned to Chen Gong to ask for his opinion."
For this little gift, I'm afraid the sincerity is not enough."
Chen Gong said with a smile."
Of course it's not all, it's just a meeting gift, just wait for the alliance agreement between the two families of Lu Yuan to be signed, and my lord will send another 20,000 stones of rice to fund the general's attack on Chang'an."
The messenger said with a smile."
Yuan Shu is really generous, and it is in vain to get acquainted with him."
Lu Bu was overjoyed.Lu Bu asked the envoy to go down to rest first, and then discuss with Chen Gong and others whether it was appropriate to form an alliance with Yuan Shu."
Although Yuan Shu's Jianghuai is not connected to Luoyang, it is necessary to form an alliance with him, and we must have an ally with strong troops."
Chen Gong said."
Yuan Shu has long had the intention of becoming an emperor, and I think it is harmful to form an alliance with him."
Gao Shun said."
But Yuan Shu is giving the benefits of carrying, my military rations are a little insufficient, and 20,000 stones of rice are just for emergency."
Lu Bu said."
Befriending Yuan Shu, beware of Liu Bei, and rejecting Cao Cao is my consistent policy, as long as General Lu follows this line of thought, he will definitely be able to become a powerful overlord in the future."
Chen Gong said."
Liu Bei is more benevolent and righteous, why should we beware of him" Gao Shun was a little puzzled."
Liu Bei has great ambitions, and his military divisions and fierce generals are powerful, and he will definitely be a strong opponent for us in the future."
Chen Gong said.In order to get Yuan Shu's 30,000 stone of rice as soon as possible, Lu Bu signed an alliance agreement with Yuan Shu's envoy that night, and sent his subordinate Qin Yilu to Shouchun to stay for a long time, so as to facilitate long-term contact with Yuan Shu.At the south gate of Chang'an, Guan Yu led the crowd to attack several times, but he couldn't attack it at all, so he rested outside the city at night.Although Guan Yu's soldiers and horses are few, he is not afraid of Dong Jun coming out of the city, and he even wishes that Dong Jun will come out for a decisive battle, so that he can kill a few Dong generals to Liwei.Guan Yu, Huang Zhong, and Zhang Fei were discussing tactics in the big tent, but Dian Wei suddenly broke in, and there were several guards behind him escorting three prisoners dressed as ordinary people."
These guys are checking on our camp and were bumped into by me."
Dian Wei said."
Great, my hands are itchy, just take these three guys under the knife."
Zhang Fei shouted."
The general spares his life, we are our own people."
The three prisoners were almost stunned and begged for mercy."
Then you don't tell who you are, lest we do it."
Guan Yu shouted."
A few of us are Lu Bu's people, and now we are allies with you, you can't kill allies."
Said one of the prisoners."
Then what have you come to do, that I will spare you from death."
Guan Yu said."
General Lu sent us to inquire about your situation."
The prisoner said."
It turned out to be a dead spy."
Zhang Fei snorted."

What does Lu Bu want to probe on us?"
asked Guan Yu."
The battle at the East City Gate is fierce, Dong Zhuo's main force is almost all over there, General Lu can't take it, and he is eager to know what the situation is on Second Brother Guan's side, and whether there is a siege of the city that can contain Dong Zhuo's troops," a spy said."
You also saw it today, we have attacked the city as agreed, and we have attacked it several times."
Guan Yu said."
Yes, yes, the little ones have indeed seen it with their own eyes, and the battle is also fierce on Second Brother Guan's side."
The spy responded cautiously."
When did you come to the South Gate?"
asked Guan Yu."
In the evening, we just arrived, and Second Brother Guan just collected his troops to stop the siege."
The spy said."
You go back and tell Lu Bu to let him hold on a little longer, just wait for Ma Teng's army to reach the West City Gate, his pressure will be less, and Chang'an will be just around the corner."
After Guan Yu finished speaking, he released the three spies
