Chapter 257: Lu Bu's death! You are blind to die for such a lord! Add a training genius to Lao Liu!
Lu Bu was confused.

Liu Bei really wanted to kill him.

I am the best general in the world. Whoever gets my weapon into his hands will treat it as a delicacy and look upon it as a magical weapon that can destroy all the princes in the world.
If you, Liu Bei, want to fight Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, can you do without this sword of mine, the sharpest in the world?

Now I have already humbled myself and surrendered to you. Shouldn't you be happy and accept my surrender openly?

Why do you want to kill me?
This script is wrong...

Lu Bu trembled in place, looking at Liu Bei in shock and confusion, completely stunned.

"Everyone, get out of the way. I'll do it. I'll chop up these four servants!"

Zhang Fei was extremely excited. He rolled up his sleeves, stepped forward, dragged Lu Bu and went down to the city.

Lu Bu finally came to his senses, and his confusion turned into endless fear in an instant.

"Lord Xuande, please show some mercy!"

"I am willing to surrender to you. I am willing to surrender to you with all my heart and go through fire and water for you!"

"You are a righteous Lord, why can't you be generous and spare my life and give me a chance to reform~~"

There were even tears in Lu Bu's eyes and his incoherent pleas were extremely humble.

Liu Bei was naturally indifferent.

It was even less likely that Zhang Fei would show mercy, and he dragged Lu Bu all the way down the city.

Just when he was halfway there, he ran into Gao Shun, who was also captured and was being escorted up to the city.

"It's just a knife to the head, how can a real man be afraid of death?"

"Lü Bu, you are unworthy of being a local lord, how can you be so afraid of death!"

"I, Gao Shun, actually followed a lord like you. I must have been blind!"

Gao Shun glared at Lu Bu, cursing loudly, with an expression of extreme anger and disappointment on his face.

After he broke out from the east gate, he encountered a heavy blockade by Liu's army on the way. He remembered Lu Bu's order and fought desperately to break out.

Unfortunately, with only 3,000 men, they were unable to break through Liu Jun’s ambush, which was ten times larger than theirs. They were killed in a short while.

When Gao Shun was captured, he had not yet waited for Lu Bu's follow-up troops to arrive.

It was not until he was escorted to Shouchun that he learned that Lu Bu had actually broken out from the north gate, but was also surrounded and annihilated by Liu's army. Not only was his entire army wiped out, but he was also captured by Guan Yu.

Gao Shun suddenly came to his senses.

It was not until this moment that he was shocked to discover that the lord he was loyal to had actually deceived him and tricked him into becoming a bait and cannon fodder to attract Liu's army!

After learning the truth, Gao Shun was naturally filled with sadness.

Now when he was escorted to the top of the city wall, he saw Lu Bu, who was afraid of death and begged for his life from Liu Bei in an ugly manner. The sadness and anger that had accumulated in his heart finally erupted at this moment.

So there was contempt and condemnation of Lu Bu.

When Lu Bu looked up and recognized Gao Shun, he was speechless for a moment, and shame welled up on his face.

Gao Shun stopped and angrily asked Lu Bu:
"I, Gao Shun, have followed you for many years and am loyal to you. Even if you order me to fight to the death, I, Gao Shun, will not even frown!"

"But if you want me to be abandoned and used as your bait, why don't you just say it directly? Why do you have to use such a despicable method as deception?"

"Lü Bu, is this how you repay my loyalty to you?"

Faced with Gao Shun's angry questioning, Lu Bu lowered his head in shame and faced Gao Shun in silence.

Zhang Fei gave Gao Shun a disdainful look and said sarcastically:
"These four family slaves have killed several of their own adoptive fathers. What's the big deal about sacrificing a general like you?"

"You've followed him for so long, and you only saw his true face now. I think you are also a blind fool!"

Gao Shun, who was originally filled with grief and anger, was immediately speechless after being insulted by Zhang Fei.

Zhang Fei was too lazy to listen to the argument between his master and his subject, so he dragged Lu Bu and left the city.

"Lord Xuande, please give me a chance~~"

"If you want to pacify the world, you can only defeat Yuan Shao if you keep me, Lu Bu~~"

Lu Bu came back to his senses and, without caring about his shame towards Gao Shun, begged again.

Zhang Fei remained indifferent. He dragged him down from the city roughly and ordered his soldiers to force him to kneel on the ground.

With the big knife in hand, Zhang Fei rolled up his sleeves and raised it high into the air.

Looking at Lu Bu kneeling on the ground, Zhang Fei recalled his embarrassment and self-blame when he was ambushed and lost Xia Pi. The grievances that had been suppressed in his heart for many years finally came out at this moment.

"Four-surnamed slave, you caused me to lose Xiapi and Xuzhou, betrayed my brother's trust in me, and almost drove our brother to death."

"I have been holding this anger in for many years, just waiting for this day."

"Lü Bu, you must pay me back with your head today!"

Zhang Fei vented his anger and slashed down with the sword in his hand.

"Zhang Yide, Brother Zhang, listen to me, you——"

Lu Bu's pleading came to an abrupt end.

The blade cut across the neck without hesitation, and Lu Bu's huge head fell to the ground.

"What a joy! What a joy! Hahahaha——"

Zhang Fei looked at the head rolling on the ground and burst into laughter.

On top of the city.

Gao Shun had been escorted to the top of the city wall and was also forced to kneel before Liu Bei. When Xiao Fang saw this man, the murderous intent in his eyes immediately turned into admiration.

This is a talented general.

Lu Bu had many capable generals under his command, but when it came to great general talent, there were only Zhang Liao and Gao Shun.

Not to mention Zhang Liao, he is a talent in the Temple of War and possesses the dual abilities of a fierce general and a commander.

In terms of military talent and military leadership, Gao Shun was naturally not as good as Zhang Liao, and he did not have any outstanding military achievements.

But Gao Shun's skill points were all focused on training soldiers.

Xiao Fang remembered that historical books recorded that Gao Shun was best at training soldiers. Most of the soldiers under Lu Bu were trained by him and then handed over to other generals for command.

The Eight Hundred Formation Camp, a famous elite army, was created by Gao Shun.

It was precisely because of Gao Shun, a skilled soldier trainer, that Lu Bu's army, though small in number, was extremely elite and brave.

Only with such an elite infantry, combined with Lu Bu's Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry, could Lu Bu dominate the world and always win battles with fewer troops.

How could Xiao Fang not recruit such a genius in military training into Lao Liu's army?

"Gao Boping, Lü Bu has been killed. Are you willing to surrender to me?"

Old Liu obviously knew that Gao Shun had the talent of a general, so he tried to recruit him every time.

Gao Shun, however, looked generous and said proudly:
"How can I, Gao Shun, be a coward who cowardly seeks life? A real man will die if he wants to. What is there to be afraid of?"

"Liu Xuande, you can kill me or chop me up as you please. I, Gao Shunning, will never be a general who surrenders!"

Liu Bei frowned slightly. Seeing Gao Shun so determined, he didn't know what to do for a moment.

Xiao Fang's eyes rolled slightly, and then he suddenly burst into laughter.

There was a lot of irony in the laughter, as if mocking Gao Shun's generosity and fearlessness, and his calmness in facing death.

"Kill me if you want to, why are you laughing at me?"

Gao Shun's face darkened and he glared at Xiao Fang angrily.

Xiao Fang stopped laughing, but his eyes were still sarcastic:

"I am laughing at you, Gao Boping. You are a seven-foot-tall man, but you are actually a stupid man. Even if you die, people will laugh at you for being blind!"

The phrase "blind" seemed to have hit Gao Shun's sore spot, causing him to be shocked.

"Lü Bu was unkind and unjust, he was fickle and unfaithful, and he killed his father several times. You, Gao Shun, are such a good man, but you actually followed such a lord. Isn't this blind?"

"I heard that you are the best at training soldiers. All the elite soldiers under Lu Bu were trained by you, Gao Shun. However, Lu Bu was afraid of your prestige in the army and never let you take charge of important troops."

"In the battle of Yanzhou, the 800-man Xianzhen Camp under your command was destroyed. Lu Bu would rather lose such an elite regiment than allow you to rebuild it."

"You have followed a lord who treats you like a beast of burden and uses you but doesn't trust you until now. This shows how stupid you are!"

Xiao Fang fully exposed Gao Shun's situation under Lu Bu.

These words all hit Gao Shun's heart, causing him to feel heartache, and he couldn't help but fall silent.

"During the battle last night, Lu Bu lied to you and tricked you into breaking out from the east gate in order to escape, using you and three thousand soldiers as bait!"

"Such a despicable method, even a fool like Yuan Shu would not be ashamed to use it on his loyal generals."

"You, Gao Shun, claim to be loyal to Lu Bu, but Lu Bu treats you like this. And now you still want to die for him?"

"Throughout history, I have never seen anyone as blind and stupid as you!"

"Is it wrong for me to laugh at you?"

Xiao Fang's last words were also the most brutal, directly piercing Gao Shun's lungs.

Gao Shun's body shook violently, his fists clenched suddenly, and anger suddenly emerged in his eyes.

He already had some resentment towards Lu Bu in his heart, and Xiao Fang's words were like adding fuel to the fire, just enough to ignite his resentment.

The time was almost right, Xiao Fang turned around and gave Zhang Liao a wink.

Zhang Liao understood what Gao Shun meant, and stepped forward as an old colleague, gently patting Gao Shun on the shoulder:

"Brother Bo Ping, a lord like Lu Bu who is so unkind, unjust, cold-blooded and heartless is really not worthy of us dying for him."

"Besides, you deceived him, acted as a pawn, and fought until your entire army was annihilated. You have already done your best. There is really no need to bury him with you and be laughed at by the world."

"In today's world, not only does the master choose his subjects, but the subjects also choose their masters."

"General Zuo's talent and strategy are far superior to Lu Bu. Even Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are inferior to him. He is also a rare benevolent and righteous leader in this chaotic world."

"A lord like this is the wise one for whom we should die for."

Zhang Liao tried his best to persuade Gao Shun, but he remained silent. The heroic spirit of wanting to die that he had just shown had completely disappeared.

The groundwork was almost done, and Xiao Fang nodded slightly to Lao Liu again.

Old Liu then stepped forward again, untied the rope on Gao Shun himself, and helped him up again.

Then he bowed solemnly to Gao Shun:

"Bo Ping, you are a hero of our time. I have admired you for a long time. I beg you to help me support the country, eliminate the Han thieves, and rebuild our Han Dynasty!"

Gao Shun was shocked, and the last bit of his concern and persistence was shattered by Liu Bei's courteous request.

So he took a deep breath and bowed deeply to Liu Bei:
"Shun was blind and followed a foolish leader like Lu Bu, wasting half his life. Today, he finally came to his senses and met a wise leader."

"I am grateful for General Zuo's high regard for me. I am willing to spend the rest of my life for you. I will go through fire and water for you. I will never refuse!"
