"Lu Bu, I doubt you are truly loyal to me."

However, Liu Wei looked at this peerless general, later known as the one who would stab his adoptive father, with a half-smile, and suddenly his face turned cold: "Guards!"

"exist!"

"Push him out and behead him!" Liu Wei roared.

"Your Highness...Why are you killing me?" Lü Bu was terrified.

"Why should I kill you, Lü Bu? I doubt you truly submit to me."

"You're just a desperate coward who's afraid of death," Liu Wei said expressionlessly. "If you truly wanted to submit to me, why didn't you come to me back in Hexi?"

"......"

Lu Bu was speechless; Liu Wei's words were simply a blatant act of cheating.

But once you're a prisoner, any further arguments are futile.

"Your Highness, I...I truly submit to Your Highness. If you will not reject me, I am willing to become Your Highness's adopted son and kill Dong Zhuo to prove my loyalty."

"A real man dies, so he dies. It's just a scar the size of a bowl. In eighteen years, he'll be a man again. Why should he bow and scrape to him?"

When Gao Shun saw that Lü Bu was saying such nauseating things in order to beg for his life, he immediately struggled to his feet and roared at Lü Bu.

"Come on! Kill me first! So I won't suffer your humiliation!"

"If you're in such a hurry to die, why don't you rush to be reincarnated?" Wang Fangyi shouted angrily when he saw Gao Shun's rudeness.

Liu Wei smiled slightly, stepped forward, dismissed Wang Fangyi, and personally untied Gao Shun.

Gao Shun was stunned.

The others were also stunned, completely baffled by Lü Bu and Wei Xu's expressions.

This King of the Clouds is truly unfathomable.

"this..."

"Gao Shun, I won't kill you, you can leave now!"

Liu Wei waved his hand to clear the way for Gao Shun.

"I...I don't know where to go? King of the Clouds, just kill me!"

Gao Shun looked completely bewildered.

"Kill you? You're so young, with such exceptional military skills, are you just going to waste them like this?"

"With such skill, don't you think of serving the country, expanding its territory, and galloping across the borders for me?"

Liu Wei smiled.

"Your Highness, of course I want to serve you, but you want to kill General Lü!"

"If General Lü dies, I don't want to live alone either."

Gao Shun resolutely blocked the railway.

It's true that true love only exists between men.

It's clear that Gao Shun's love for Lü Bu was reserved!

"My lord, General Lü Bu is loyal to the Han Dynasty. He was tricked by Dong Zhuo and only joined Dong Zhuo after Ding Yuan was killed by Yuan Shao and his men! He only obeys Dong Zhuo's orders and not his summons."

Zhang Liao saw that Liu Wei wanted to kill Lü Bu but released Gao Shun, and kept glancing at him.

Suddenly, Zhang Liao realized that his lord had sent him to do someone a favor.

Liu Wei said that this was something both of them wanted.

Seeing that Gao Shun was stubbornly holding his ground and seemed to have no room for maneuver, Zhang Liao immediately stepped forward to plead for Lü Bu.

"This humble general is willing to swear on his life that Fengxian is a loyal subject of the Han Dynasty, and is willing to serve Your Highness with all his heart!"

"Since Wen Yuan vouched for you, I will believe you this time. If you are deceived by me, I can arrest you once, and I can arrest you twice."

Liu Wei, taking advantage of the situation, gave Zhang Liao ample face, saying, "Becoming my adopted son is unnecessary! I will have many sons in the future, I don't need you!"

Looking at Lü Bu, if Ding Yuan hadn't died, he wouldn't have gone to join Dong Zhuo.

Perhaps it was my arrival that distorted the original history beyond recognition.

Although Lü Bu valued his life and knew how to assess situations, he was no longer the three-surname slave he once was.

Lu Bu offered to become Liu Wei's adopted son, but Liu Wei dared not accept.

What if this activates some attribute of Lu Bu, and he turns on me one day?

He regrets Lu Bu's bravery and will send him to fight in the Western Regions and make a difference in the future!

At that time, he will leave a different Lü Bu for future generations.

“I am deeply grateful to Wen Yuan for speaking up for me.”

Outside the ruined city, Zhang Liao bid farewell to Ding Yuan and parted ways with him.

Now, Zhang Liao has become a regional commander under the King of Yunzhong, holding a high position and great power.

But he became a prisoner, which is truly regrettable.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Liao would risk his life to vouch for him, and Lü Bu couldn't help but recall the moments he had spent working with Zhang Liao in the past.

"Fengxian, get up!"

Liu Wei offered a gesture of support, saying, "I will return your troops to you, and you will retain your title of General of the Mighty Han, and be placed under the command of Left Commander-in-Chief Zhang Wenyuan."

"Bu thanks Your Highness!"

Lü Bu immediately bowed deeply.

These days, who doesn't care about a formal government job?

Although Dong Zhuo helped him obtain the title of General Fenwei from the young emperor, now that Liu Wei has recognized it, how could he not be extremely grateful?

"You may all leave now!"

......

"My lord, now that the Prince has taken back Xuanmen Pass, Dong Zhuo's route eastward is blocked."

"He also has 30,000 troops by his side, and Empress Dowager He, the young emperor, and all the civil and military officials are under his control!"

"Moreover, the five Northern Army Schools of the Imperial Court, as well as the Western Garden Army and the Yuzhou Army, all accompanied the emperor."

"If he learns that Li Jue's entire army has been wiped out, will he return to Luoyang to fight his way back?"

After Lü Bu and the others withdrew, Liu Wei held a military conference that consisted only of military officers.

Yue Fei, Zhang Liao, Xue Rengui, Shen Lian, and others were all present at the meeting.

The Military Affairs Office naturally gained another member, Yue Fei.

There was much discussion among the people about the future military posture.

"Grand Commander Yue, first deploy troops to surround Dong Zhuo, leaving him no way to escape!"

"The 800,000 troops surrounding the eight passes were disbanded on the spot and laid down their arms to become civilians."
