Chapter 39: Lu Bu: The retribution comes so quickly!
Li Ru left Lu Bu with a smile on his face.
Lu Bu, Wei Xu and others escorted Li Ru to the gate...
"boom!"
Returning to the room, Lu Bu punched the table in front of him hard, knocking it over.
Wei Xu, Hou Cheng and others on the side also looked extremely ugly, so gloomy that water seemed to drip out of them.
All the happiness in their hearts disappeared at this moment, leaving only anger and unwillingness.
Who could have thought that retribution would come so quickly.
They had just seen the jokes of the Northern Army and Hua Xiong there, but after they came back, similar things happened to them!
Dong Zhuo wanted to split up their Bingzhou troops again!
The atmosphere in the room seemed very depressing.
"Brother-in-law, this... this matter cannot be let go like this, we must go and talk to the Prime Minister, we cannot go too far!
If we continue to split up like this, will our Bingzhou troops still be Bingzhou troops?
The Bingzhou troops can only exert their strongest combat power when they are gathered together and under the leadership of you, my brother-in-law.
It's such a waste to let someone else lead it!"
Wei Xu said dissatisfiedly.
Hou Cheng frowned and said, "This split is too harsh..."
Lu Bu sat there without saying a word. After a while, he stood up and walked outside.
"Where is the General going?"
Cheng Lian asked quickly.
"Go talk to the Prime Minister about this matter."
Lu Bu said without turning his head...
…
In the end, Lu Bu did not go to Dong Zhuo to tell him about this matter, and was stopped and persuaded by Cheng Lian.
It's hard to describe how painful it is to see the troops that originally belonged to him being broken up and taken away from him.
However, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru did not only take away Lu Bu's troops, but also transferred some troops from Xiliang to Lu Bu.
But after this round of mobilization, it is an ironclad fact that Lu Bu can no longer command so many troops...
…
Gao Shun led his soldiers forward in the cold wind, and gradually, Sishui Pass came into sight.
Gao Shun seemed to be in a heavy mood.
The words spoken by Lu Bu and others still linger in my ears.
He did not hold much hope for the upcoming trip to Sishui Pass.
People like me will still be looked down upon.
Now in Dong Zhuo's place, the troops of Xiliang look down on the troops of Bingzhou.
The Bingzhou troops were dissatisfied with the Liangzhou troops and looked down on the Northern Army.
Hua Xiong was a general from Xiliang and had just won a victory. If he came here with such soldiers at this time, he would definitely be looked down upon.
Just as he was thinking this, he saw a team of ten cavalrymen galloping towards him from the direction of Sishui Pass.
"Is the person coming here Gao Shun, the general of the Northern Army?"
The leading cavalryman asked when they were still two or three hundred steps away.
Gao Shun stepped forward and said, "That's right!"
I was about to say something else, or listen to the person in front of me say something else, but in the end, no sound was heard.
All I could hear was the sound of horse hooves.
Looking up, I saw that the cavalry that was rushing towards me had turned their horses and was heading towards Sishui Pass.
Gao Shun was stunned for a moment, and the faces of the Northern Army soldiers and generals who followed him changed.
Looks angry.
Before, he was humiliated in person by Lu Bu and his Bingzhou people outside Luoyang. Now, when he came to Sishui Pass, he was humiliated again before he even reached the checkpoint.
People made of clay all have tempers.
They really can't stand it anymore!
"Jun Hou, everyone looks down on us, what should we do?!"
The momentary daze that appeared on Gao Shun's face had disappeared at this moment.
He became serious again.
"Hit him out!"
Gao Shun's voice rang out in the north wind.
This made the two thousand Northern Army soldiers perk up their spirits and gather their strength.
After they arrived at Sishui Pass, they were ready to have some conflicts with the people at Sishui Pass along with their military officers.
Use your fists to tell them that you and others are not that easy to control!
"When I say strike out, I mean strike the enemy, not strike our own people.
Strength is respected in the army, and the soldiers of Xiliang have many military achievements.
Most of us have never even been to the battlefield, so why should we expect others to look up to us?
Face and status are earned by yourself, not given by others.
If you want others to respect you, then when you go to the battlefield, you will kill the enemy with all your might.
If you can achieve impressive results, others will look at you with new eyes without saying anything more."
After saying these words to these people, Gao Shun stopped talking and continued to lead the way, still calm and resolute.
These Northern Army soldiers also stopped talking and moved forward with their military commanders. Overall, their temperament was very similar to Gao Shun's.
It feels like they are one with Gao Shun...
After walking less than three miles forward, they saw another group of soldiers galloping towards them.
There are more than a hundred people.
The war horses galloped, stirring up a cloud of dust.
As soon as the dust from the journey rose, it was blown away by the wind.
Even though Gao Shun had a strong character, he couldn't help but frown at this moment.
Is this never going to end?
The war horses galloped over and stopped two hundred steps away from Gao Shun and his men.
Gao Shun also stopped and stood here, looking ahead, waiting for a new round of contempt.
I saw the leading general jumping off his horse.
The general was very tall, over nine feet tall, with a tiger-like body and wolf-like waist, and was extremely strong. A three-pointed, double-edged sword hung on the hook of his warhorse, Victory.
With just one glance, Gao Shun was sure that this man must be Hua Xiong, the governor of Sishui Pass.
Is he going to come here in person to look down on me and others and give them a warning?
But immediately, Gao Shun was slightly stunned.
Because Hua Xiong had a smile on his face as he was rushing towards him.
Is he planning to show off his power while laughing?
Is this Hua Xiong still a smiling tiger?
Past experiences prevented Gao Shun from thinking about other things.
"Are you Gao Shun and Gao Xuanchang? I am Hua Xiong."
Hua Xiong looked at Gao Shun in front of him and asked with a smile on his face.
Gao Shun bowed and said, "Gao Shun greets Governor Hua."
Hua Xiong smiled and helped Gao Shun up: "Xuan Chang, there is no need to be polite. With you leading the troops here, I don't have to worry about anything."
Hua Xiong was telling the truth. Others didn't know how strong Gao Shun was, but he knew what a rare general Gao Shun was.
Among the infantry corps of the Three Kingdoms, Gao Shun and the Xianzhen Camp he led can definitely rank among the best.
But Gao Shun and the Northern Army soldiers led by Gao Shun did not think so.
They just thought that Governor Hua was speaking in a sarcastic way and was trying to humiliate them in this way.
How could they be worthy of Hua Xiong's words in their current state?
If this isn’t a mockery, what is?
I couldn't help but hold my breath, thinking that Hua Xiong wasn't a good guy either...
Half an hour later, in the camp at Sishui Pass, the Northern Army led by Gao Shun drank steaming hot porridge and rice, and all the coldness on their bodies was dispelled.
I felt warm all over and very comfortable.
When they thought about Governor Hua again at this time, they suddenly felt that Governor Hua was not such a hateful person.
What he said before should have come from the heart.
It was because I and others were too sensitive and misunderstood Governor Hua's good intentions...
It must be said that Hua Xiong specially ordered the porridge and rice cooked for these Northern Army soldiers who came from afar, and it was really delicious...
Gao Shun, the general of the Northern Army, was in Hua Xiong's tent at this time...
