TL: From this point on, the story is major battle against Sun Ce, those who were looking for NSFW chapters, must wait until 100 chapters, until the major battle end

Mighty Tiger VS Little Conqueror; Liu Mang and Lu Bu’s Illustrious Beginning

Reassigning the newly surrendered personnel into Lu Bu’s army has been done. Lu Bu did not leave anyone out including Gan Ning. Lu Bu’s principle is NEVER SUSPECT PEOPLE THAT YOU USE.

In the past, this is why Wei Xu and Song Xian were able to betray him despite many warnings, it is Lu Bu who kept hold on his principles.

Such a little move made Gan Ning and co, truly grateful

Defeating Jiangxiaʼs army and occupying Huangzhou city is only one small step. The most important is, Lu Bu wanted to discuss with Liu Biao of Jing Province and Huang Zu of Jiangxia to let himself safely cross Jiangxia.

Although this war was caused because Sun Ce of Jiangdong having Lu Bu act as a borrowed knife, he can consider this as training for his troops and also act as a message and warning for Liu Biao of Jing Province, in order to accept Lu Bu’s request for discussion and a warning so Liu Biao does not act rashly.

Lu Bu kept staying in Huangzhou city. He did not press on to Wuchang commandery and finally to Jiangxia. This is to signal Huang Zu, that I, Lu Bu, do not want to tear up your face completely, battle to the death.

Acting as the bridge is one person, which is Huang She who is currently in Lu Bu’s hand.

With Huang She in his hand, Lu Bu believed that Huang Zu will let his army safely cross Jiangxia. After all Huang She is Huang Zu’s eldest son, it is impossible for Huang Zu to overlook Huang She’s safety and will definitely provide Lu Bu’s army a means to cross Jiangxia. So after they cross Jiangxia’s waterway, the next location is hard soil, which is definitely Lu Bu’s army domain.

Right before Lu Bu sent a messenger to Huang Zu, suddenly there is an old acquaintance with a small amount of troops coming to see Lu Bu.

That is right, Sun Ce sent a messenger to see Lu Bu, right after the news of his victory spread.

“I believe you have been well since we last met, Marquis of Wen. Milord at Wancheng city misses you so much, so he made me and the others come visit you!” The one who visit Lu Bu is Chen Duan, Jiangdong’s top adviser. It is the same Chen Duan who was made angry by Liu Mang until he wanted to vomit blood. Chen Duan’s top skill is negotiation.

“Bofu really cares much for this uncle. Bu is very moved by his feelings.” Although Lu Bu did not have a good impression about Chen Duan, he still welcomed him with a smile.

They sat in the hall. Food and wine are served.

“Marquis of Wen overpraises Milord!!! Marquis of Wen, my visit here is to discuss four matters. The first one, I request one person from Marquis of Wen.” Chen Duan spoke his words in straight forward manner.

“Request a person?! Who?!” Lu Bu inquired.

“Huang Zu of Jiangxia’s Eldest son Huang She” Chen Duan quickly responded.

“Huang She?!” Asked Lu Bu while maintaining his composure. Sun Ce’s army intelligence personnel really good. He himself just captured Huang She, and they already have news about it.

“May I know, what your lord wants with this Huang She?!”

“Huang Zu killed my old lord, so the debt is to be repaid by his son. Milord wants to use Huang She as a sacrifice to our banner!!!” Huang Zu has killed Sun Jian, therefore the Sun clan and Huang clan’s hatred are absolutely irreconcilable.

“The second matter?!” Lu Bu asked the second matter directly without agreeing or disagreeing on the first matter.

“The second matter is of course, I request that Marquis of Wen forms an alliance with Milord!” Chen Duan said it after he drank his wine.

“Form an alliance?! Although your lord called me uncle, we are not so desperate that we want to form an alliance!”

“Marquis of Wen, why should you ponder more? The matter should be really understandable. Marquis of Wen who wants to go to Xinye definitely will need to cross Jiangxia. Because of the battle, now Marquis of Wen had offended Huang Zu completely. Offending Huang Zu equates to offending the entire Jing Province. That also equals to turning all of Jing Province into an enemy. So, Huang Zu will not let Marquis of Wen cross Jiangxia. Even if Huang Zu allows you, Liu Biao will definitely not let you to go into Xinye!!!”

“Xinye is no longer my destination, I want to detour to the north!”
