No one can explain clearly who is the highest in Lu Bu’s position.

Jia Xu was an important counselor of Lu Bu, and Wei Xu was Lu Bu's brother-in-law. In addition, Hou Cheng, Song Xian, Cheng Lian, Hao Meng, and Cao Xing were all powerful generals who had followed Lu Bu in battle for many years. Gao Shun defected to Lu Bu when he was from Luoyang. Although he was stereotyped and not favored by Lu Bu, he was an indispensable general around Lu Bu.

I'm afraid these people don't know who has the highest status. After all, Lu Bu's personality is a bit impermanent on weekdays, but if you say who is the most favored by Lu Bu, it will undoubtedly be a high rise.

If Gao Sheng is abilities, it is really not very useful. Otherwise, with Ye Zhao's ability to employ people, he would not have been unable to find Gao Sheng's position back then, and he was eventually sent to Lu Bu. However, this person's ability to observe his words and expressions and change his mind was unparalleled under Lu Bu's command.

People like to listen to good words. The difference is that some people can restrain their emotional thinking and treat these sweet words rationally, but more people will be deceived by these pleasant words. Lu Bu obviously belongs to the latter.

"It's time for General Gao." Cao Ang smiled and bowed to Gao Sheng, "No need to send him off."

"It's okay, I'll ask Mr. Cao to say a few good words in front of Mr. Cao in the future." Gao Sheng also sent Cao Ang out of the mansion with a smile on his face.

"Goodbye!"

"Go slowly!"

Looking at Cao Ang who was gradually disappearing from sight, Gao Sheng returned to his room and sighed, smiling bitterly, not expecting that he would become the key figure in the situation in the world one day.

But Cao Ang has come, why don’t he see Ye Zhao’s envoy? Is Ye Zhao so confident that he will speak to him?

Thinking of the treatment under Ye Zhao's command and the cold eyes and disdain of others, Gao Sheng sneered. If they really thought so, they would be wrong.

At least so far, Gao Sheng feels that he is far better than Ye Zhao's side when he is Lu Bu's side. The feeling of being valued and recognized is something that Gao Sheng has never experienced under Ye Zhao's command.

Now that Ye Zhao's life and death are in his hands, Gao Sheng will not have any nostalgia for the time he was under Ye Zhao's command in the past, and even at this moment, there is only a sense of resentment that cannot be dissolved.

Originally, he was waiting for Ye Zhao's envoy to come to find him and then play with him. Unexpectedly, Ye Zhao's envoy did not come at all, which made Gao Sheng even more embarrassed and made up his mind that he would definitely help Cao Ang to make this happen this time, just to fight with Ye Zhao.

"Prepare horses, I'm going to go to the lord's place!" After seeing Cao Ang leave, Gao Sheng directly asked someone to prepare horses and prepare to go to Lu Bu and talked to Lu Bu. In short, Ye Zhao must not succeed this time.

...

"Sir, why don't we go to find Gao Sheng?" After seeing Lu Bu's favorite concubine Luo Yan, Wang Shuang came back with Ye Zheng and asked with a frown: "I heard that Cao Ang had already gone to Gao Sheng's mansion early in the morning. Gao Sheng had followed his lord after all, and I'll say that Gao Sheng would definitely help him."

"That may not be!" Ye Zheng shook his head and said, "Before going to the war, I asked Guan Hai, Ding Li, Qiu Chi and others. They followed their father first and had the most contact with Gao Sheng. Do you know how these people evaluate Gao Sheng?"

"I don't know until the end." Wang Shuang said very simply. When Ye Zheng was in Macheng, he was not born yet, so how could he know this?

"Gaosheng is a general who has no courage and no strategy for his actions." Ye Zheng shook his head and smiled, "According to what his father said, he was not successful enough and had more than enough failure. His father only used talents. Therefore, although Gaosheng followed his father's father's time second only to General Ding, he was never worthy of use. He was even rejected by his father's soldiers. Not to mention the generals, even the soldiers under him did not respect him much. Later, he was sent to Lu Bu to do things, and he was valued by Lu Bu and gained his current status."

"You said that such a person would be loyal to his father? I will be fooled by him when I go."

"But although Gao Sheng is incompetent, he is quite worthy of Lu Bu. If I can't wait, would I have to watch Lu Bu join forces with Cao Cao?" Wang Shuang frowned, then looked at Ye Zheng, and a ruthless look flashed in his eyes and said, "It's better to be the last general..."

As he said that, he made a throat-cutting action, and the meaning was self-evident.

"I want to kill someone, but if I kill Gao Sheng, it will only make Lu Bu disgusted and it will not be worth the loss." Ye Zheng shook his head and said.

"Then..." Wang Shuang looked at Ye Zheng in confusion. If he didn't kill Gao Sheng, who would he kill?

"If Cao Ang dies, do you think even if Cao Cao is willing to form an alliance with Lu Bu, will Lu Bu be relieved?" A murderous intent flashed in Ye Zheng's eyes.

"Sir, you want to kill Cao Ang!?" Wang Shuang looked at Ye Zheng in shock.

"It's better than killing Gaosheng. Moreover, Gaosheng is Lu Bu's confidant, and there are many people around him. Even if we kill him, it will be difficult to escape from Wancheng. Cao Ang is only twenty personal guards, so it's not difficult to kill him." Ye Zheng looked at Wang Shuang and smiled and said, "Are you scared?"

"Sir, what is said, "You will never be afraid of following your husband to fight on the battlefield?" Wang Shuang said loudly with his chest.

"Okay, I have obtained Cao Ang's residence before through Mrs. Luoyan. Tonight, you summon all your troops and follow me to strangle Cao Ang. Once this person dies, Lu Bu will have to surrender to us." Ye Zheng smiled.

"Sir, a clever plan!" Wang Shuang agreed and followed Ye Zheng back to the inn.

In order to avoid conflict between the envoys of both sides, Lu Bu specially placed Ye Zheng and Cao Ang's men in two inns respectively, but interestingly, the distance between the two inns is not far.

After visiting Gao Sheng, Cao Ang did not return to the inn immediately. He went to visit Song Xian and Wei Xu, who were staying in Wancheng with generous gifts. As for the others, they were all stationed in various parties, and Cao Ang could not visit him for a while. Moreover, Gao Sheng, Wei Xu and Song Xian and the other three helped to speak. Cao Ang felt that things were easier to succeed. It was not until late at night that he dragged his somewhat tired body back to the inn.

This time, he tried his best to successfully convince Lu Bu to form an alliance, but it was not in vain. He had successfully persuaded Gao Sheng and Wei Xu spoke for him. As for Song Xian, although he did not agree, he did not refuse. Cao Ang planned to try it tomorrow.

The arrival of Ye Zhao's envoy greatly increased Cao Ang's sense of crisis. He must convince these people as soon as possible to successfully complete this task.

Cao Ang was awakened by a pungent smell of blood.

"Come!" Sniffing the rich bloody smell in the air, Cao Ang was sure that he was not dreaming. He looked around in surprise and shouted in a deep voice.

This time, those who followed him on mission were the most elite soldiers in the Tiger and Leopard Camp. Cao Ang didn't think anyone could kill these people silently.

However, Cao Ang called out, but no one answered, which made Cao Ang feel a little panicked. He quickly got out of bed and groped to hold the sword in his hand.

The door suddenly opened, and a slightly cool night wind rushed towards him, making Cao Ang's head wake up a lot. A figure stood at the door, facing away from the door, unable to see clearly.

"Who are you?" Cao Ang took a few steps back without hesitation, drew his sword in his hand, and looked at the black shadow.

"Ye Zheng!" The visitor said calmly: "Speaking of this, you and me are also considered family friends. When my father was in Chang'an, he praised Ling Zun more than once."

Ye Zheng!?

Cao Ang was slightly stunned. He naturally knew who Ye Zheng was. No matter what the reason was, it was enough to make Cao Hong suffer a loss. Ye Zheng's ability was just a matter of not understanding. What he couldn't understand was how Ye Zheng was here?

But at this moment, it was obviously not the time to consider this issue. Cao Hong looked at the other party intently and said coldly: "But I don't know why Prince Ye came here for no reason?"

"Why did Brother Cao come here? Of course, I am here." Ye Zheng slowly walked towards Cao Ang, and an invisible aura spread out, making Cao Ang feel a little breathless in his chest.

"So, do you want to kill me?" Cao Ang looked at Ye Zheng and said coldly.

"Actually, there is no need for me to take action in this matter." Ye Zheng said calmly: "It's just that you and I are family friends, and Brother Cao has a noble status, so it's a bit disrespectful to let Brother Cao die at the hands of an unknown young man. Therefore, I came here in person and sent Brother Cao on the way!"

In other words, my personal guards have indeed been killed!

Cao Ang's heart kept sinking. He looked at Ye Zheng but was unwilling to show weakness and sneered: "It's a pity that you took a wrong step."

"Oh?" Ye Zheng slowly drew his sword, looked at Cao Ang's direction and said, "I hope to hear it clearly."

"You shouldn't have come in person. You said that if you and I were dead here, what would Lu Bu do?" Cao Ang sneered and began to approach Ye Zheng. His swordsmanship was passed down from Wang Yue's disciple Shi A, who had also gone to battle to kill the enemy, and it was not bad.

"This is a bit unpredictable, but it's just an assumption. Brother Cao will die tonight!" Ye Zheng shook his head and smiled.

"That may not be!" Cao Ang said as soon as he finished speaking, the two sides were already very close, and they could fight with just one step. With a tiger roar, he was about to step forward and kill Ye Zheng.

"Puff~"

With a muffled sound, Cao Ang felt a pain in his chest and he couldn't help but pause. He raised his head incredibly, but saw Ye Zheng pulling one and igniting it. Looking at Cao Ang who was covering his chest in pain, he laughed and said, "I just said that he was here to send Brother Cao on the way, but I didn't say that he wanted to fight with Brother Cao. Could it be that Brother Cao misunderstood what he said?"

Under the dim candlelight, Ye Zheng picked up the sword on the table with his right hand, returned the sword to the sheath, and was carrying an exquisite small crossbow on his left hand.

Then what does it mean to draw a sword?

Cao Ang covered his chest and stared at the sword in Ye Zheng's hand in pain.

"You're distracted!" Ye Zheng looked at Cao Ang's five fingers, sneered, raised the small crossbow in his hand again, and shot Cao Ang's eyebrows with an arrow.

"Puff~"

The crossbow arrow penetrated through the skull, and Cao Ang's eyes suddenly became dull and he fell silently.

Ye Zheng stepped forward and kicked Cao Ang’s hand covering his chest. Although the crossbow arrow was inserted into his chest, no blood was oozing out. Obviously, Cao Ang was wearing protective soft armor.

"Sir, everyone in the post station will kill them all!" Wang Shuang walked in, looked at Cao Ang's body, and bowed.

"The fire burned this station." Looking at Cao Ang, Ye Zheng shook his head with some regret, left a sentence, and went straight out of the door.

"Here!" Wang Shuang bowed and agreed.
