Zhang Miao hearing this was surprised, as he knew that Yuan Shu had 400,000 men whom he recruited this past year. He heard this when Cao Cao held his court before he was sent to Puyang, knowing that his future was better with Lu Bu he swore his allegiance to him.

Zhang Miao’s swore of allegiance makes Lu Bu ecstatic, as this increases the size of his army to 75,000 with Zhang Miao’s addition of 30,000 men. Lu Bu let out a loud laugh and told Zhang Kiao that he had made the best decision of his life.

Chen Gong on the side also congratulated Lu Bu for having Zhang Miao at his side, and then he turned to Zhang Miao, welcoming him to Lu Bu’s side, and said to him that from now on they would be comrades serving the same lord.

Zhang Miao smiled and told his servants to take out his oldest wine from his cellar, he told Lu Bu and Chen Gong that this wine had been stored for about 50 years since his father and now passed to him.

Hearing this Lu Bu became excited to take the wine, he told Zhang Miao that he would repay this favor with a more expensive wine, like the Fruit wine and beer that comes from Xu Province, which have a hefty price in the market right now.

While waiting for the wine, Chen Ging asked Zhang Miao to invite Xu Si and Wang Kuai who controlled some small areas around Puyang and Jibei, which could help them consolidate these parts easier and faster.

Zhang Miao knew these two men, and he promised to contact them and invite them secretly to Puyang. Zhang Miao actually hid Lu Bu and Chen Gong’s whereabouts from Cao Cao and all of his men, as he knew he could be branded as a traitor before.

Now he already joined Lu Bu’s side, so he would need to be extra careful in handling this situation, as they could be found out by Cao Cao and his talented ranks of advisors.

While Lu Bu and Chen Gong were talking with Zhang Miao, at Lu Bu’s military camp Lu Lingqi was looking at the sky with some hint of sadness. She overhears the talk between Lu Bu and Chen Gong, where she would be wed to Yuan Shu’s son.

While she had never met Yuan Shu’s son, with the kind of reputation Yuan Shu has Lu Lingqi was sure that Yuan Shu’s son could be the same as their father, incompetent and bad.

At this time while looking at the sky, she somewhat sees the face of Lie Fan passing before her eyes, she shakes her head trying to get that face out of her mind, as she knows the chances for them to be together are very small with the rivalry between her father and Lie Fan.

Lady Yan wanted to talk with her daughter and see the kind of mood her daughter was having right now, she approached her and sat down beside her while Lu Lingqi hugged her mother and Lady Yan also hugged her back.

Lady Yan: ”What’s wrong Qi’er? Why do you look so sad? Is there something wrong?”

Lu Lingqi: Mother yesterday I accidentally overheard the conversation between Father and Master Chen Gong, they have planned for me to have a marriage contract with Yuan Shu’s son...”

Lady Yan: ”Yuan Shu’s son? Marriage contract? I see so that’s why you look sad, don’t worry Qi’er I’m sure that your Father and Master Chen Gong have made the perfect plan for you.”

Lu Lingqi: ”Mother how could I marry someone I don’t know of?! And with the kind of reputation Yuan Shu has, I’m sure that his sons would be more or less the same as their Father.”

Lady Yan: ”Qi’er I’m sure that your Father knows what’s best for you, and this can also help us face the current situation, it’s also our duty to help the head of our family and fulfill our duty as members of this clan.”

Lu Lingqi hearing this protested, saying that she could not accept this decision and that she would only marry men who could defeat her, then her father, Lady Yan hearing this knew immediately who is Lu Lingqi thinking of.

Lady Yan while hugging her daughter, Lady Yan caressed her daughter’s hair. She asked Lu Lingqi if that man was still lingering in her mind, to which Lu Lingqi immediately reacted by saying no loudly.

Lu Lingqi then realizes that her reaction is too big, so she just shrinks her body and hides her face in Lady Yan’s abdomen. Lady Yan seeing this just smiles, but also feels sad as at times like this marriage alliance is important for Lu Bu’s development.

Her daughter would not have the chance of love like her and her husband, but she also knew that this was one of the women’s duties of this era. They have to follow and obey the words of their husband or father.

Lady Yan just sighed while holding her daughter. At this time in Xiapi, Lie Fan is playing with Chenchen and Yaoyao when suddenly he hears the long-lost system announcement.

*DING!!!*

[Host has just received a new mission ’The Continuation Of The God Of War’ as a special mission with no time limit]

•The Continuation Of The God Of War

Lu Lingqi daughter of Lu Bu had gotten off the original history continuation, resisting the marriage with Yuan Shu’s son. Please Host use this chance to save Lu Bu from his demise or Save Lu Bu’s family, the failure of this mission will not have any impact on the host.]

Lie Fan reading this was surprised, as he didn’t expect Lu Lingqi to play such a vital role in Lu Bu’s success or failure.

While it’s true that Lu Bu will gain much allying with Yuan Shu, when Yuan Shu declares himself Emperor Lu Bu also becomes a target and loses his biggest and only ally by breaking off the alliance.

After that, Lu Bu was attacked by Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and he lost in terms of manpower and the amount of talent serving him, Lu Bu only had Chen Gong while Cao Cao and Liu Bei had stud advisors serving them.

Lie Fan began to fall into a dilemma, as having two tigers on the same mountain is not a good thing, especially if these two tigers are him and Lu Bu. He doesn’t know why Lu Lingqi protested the marriage agreement, but he also feels happy that Lu Lingqi doesn’t agree.

Lie Fan decided to hold a meeting with his advisors, leaving Chenchen and Yaoyao with Ying Yue and the others, as he would like to ask them what if they allied themselves with Lu Bu, of course this was after he took Qing Province from Liu Bei, if that ever happens.

In the main hall at the Governor’s Castle, Lie Fan was sitting in his chair while all of his advisors were standing in two lines, at the left front was Jia Xu whole the right was Chen Qun who replaced Xun You.

Lie Fan: ”Everyone, you have heard about Lu Bu and his army roaming Yan Province right now, is there any chance that Lu Bu will raise his power base in Yan?”

Jia Xu: ”My Lord with the information I have received from Oriole, looks like Lu Bu is being assisted by Chen Gong former advisor of Cao Cao, and they have lobbied Zhang Miao the Governor of Puyang to join their side.”

Chen Qun: ”My Lord if what Master Jia Xu just said is true, that means Lu Bu has the ambition to disrupt the power structure in the central plains, and Chen Gong is also a talented advisor, I have heard his name before.”

Sun Qian: ”I have met Chen Gong before on my visit to Chenliu, I didn’t expect him to choose to resign and put all of his cards in Lu Bu’s basket, I wanted to recruit him to My Lord’s side before but I was too late now.”

Lie Fan: ”Chen Gong was one of the man helped Cao Vao establish himself in Chenliu, alongside Xi Zhicai he was one of Cao Cao’s main advisors, looks like they have a fallout, with Ku Bu’s unparallel might and Chen Ging’s mind they can become a big thorn.”

Jia Xu: ”It’s true that they would become a thorn My Lord, but just a thorn for us while a threat for Cao Cao. When we campaigned against Yuan Shu, I think Chen Gong will instruct Lu Bu to start his conquest of Yan.”

Chen Gui: ”If I may My Lord, even if Lu Bu success in taking the northern part of Yan, sooner or later Cao Cao will retake it as he would never allow Lu Bu to stay in his territory, so we should expect where he would retreat next.”

Zhuge Jin: ”I agree with Master Chen Gui, when the territory he would have, his retreat path will be to Jibei, where after that he would enter either our territory or Liu Bei’s Qing Province.”

Yan Jun: ”I think he would choose Liu Bei, as both Lu Bu and Chen Gong knew that they could face off our army and that Our Lord is the harder enemy than Liu Bei.”

Lie Fan nods his head, looks like his advisors have studied Lu Bu’s movement and the path he would choose, he is satisfied by the initiative they have.

Lie Fan continued by asking them, what if they supported Lu Bu’s rise to power in Qing Province, ousting Liu Bei and allied with Lu Bu after they conquered Yuan Shu with Cao Cao.

Jia Xu and then they begin to be confused, as to what the reason for doing so is, Lie Fan explains to them that it’s better to have Lu Bu as a neighbor than Liu Bei, as at least Lu Bu is more predictable than Liu Bei.

Also, Lu Bu will not become a threat to them, as Lu Bu doesn’t have the potential to become a big warlord, while Liu Bei has that potential like Cao Cao, especially now that he has Ju Shou who is an able advisor serving him.

Jia Xu analyzes the problem, he agrees that Lu Bu as a neighbor is easier to handle than Liu Bei, Lu Bu is an impatience man while Liu Bei is very patient, he could ain’t for as long as he needs.

He agreed with Lie Fan’s suggestion, but he proposed that Lie Fan wait while he and the others devised a plan of some sort, not just to ally themselves with Lu Bu, but also to face off against Cao Cao who would lose their face because Lie Fan supported Lu Bu in Qing.
