What Lu Xun was thinking was indeed correct. That's what Ma Chao thought...

In his opinion, he had to give Lu Xun a signal of kindness, then take it slowly, and finally ask him to join his side. If he can agree, then he will be done. However, looking at the current situation, Lu Xun did not reveal this at all. It’s not that Ma Chao was not confident, but Ma Chao didn’t think that he had to hang himself on the tree of Liangzhou Army.

After all, if Lu Xun could not surrender to Sun Ce, he would not surrender to Liu Bei, but he was indeed not the only choice. Even if Lu Xun followed him to Yutongshan and gave him some advice, this cannot be said to mean that he would definitely be able to join him.

But Ma Chao understood that the so-called "the moon will be the first to get close to the water." Compared to Cao Cao, Lu Xun can now follow him and fight with his own side. This is his advantage, right? But if you want others to take the initiative to rely on him, Ma Chao believes that it is almost impossible.

-----------------------------------------------------

Even if Cao Cao has the greatest power in the world and is a powerful minister who "used the emperor to command the princes", Lu Xun probably would not take the initiative to recommend himself, saying that he wanted to surrender to you and then do whatever he wanted. After all, Ma Chao knew very well that the greater his ability, the more proud he was.

To be honest, Lu Xun is not that old now, not even twenty years old, and he looks like a scholar. He gives people the feeling of being soft and weak. But once Cao Cao and the others know about his true ability, he will be a guest wherever he goes, and it is definitely the case. So don’t expect others to say what you take the initiative to surrender to you. This is not impossible at all. It’s just that the possibility is slim.

So Ma Chao knew in his heart that he had to correct his attitude. After all, you should not look at the age of the person or the person's appearance, but just look at the person's ability. So you will know that what you are facing is actually a great talent. He is a great person from the Three Kingdoms who can make Guan Yu suffer a great loss and Liu Bei hates him, so Ma Chao has to treat him seriously and carefully.

-----------------------------------------------------

If Lu Xun really surrenders to others, Ma Chao knows that it will definitely be his own mistake, his own losses, and his own regrets. So in order not to do so, he can only establish a good relationship with others. Otherwise, what else can you do? In fact, even if Lu Xun doesn't surrender to him, Ma Chao will not say it and kill him. To be honest, Ma Chao has always cherished talents like Lu Xun very much. Even if he is not used by himself, as long as he does not have a deep hatred, he will basically not kill him.

It cannot be said that Ma Chao is a good person. How many people are really good people? Ma Chao never claims to be himself. But to be honest, Ma Chao has always had his own principles, but this is true. So a person like Lu Xun who is not in the Three Kingdoms is a loss, and it is absolutely a big loss.

Ma Chao knew what he was going to do, so he was going to talk to Lu Xun. Fortunately, Lu Xun also saw that he had this meaning and didn’t have to leave him deliberately. Ma Chao thought at this time, saying that it’s much easier to deal with smart people. You don’t have to talk too much, but they know how to do it.

-----------------------------------------------------

So if such a person joins one's side, then one's side is really like a tiger, so why worry about whether the world will be stable soon?

Also, it is precisely because of Lu Xun's age that Ma Chao valued him more. Because in Ma Chao's plan, if he assumed that he would spend ten years to unify the great man, Lu Xun was less than thirty years old at that time. Anyway, from his own perspective, it was indeed a great year. Then, if he used another ten years, he would stabilize the great man and the surrounding areas, and then pass the position to his son. Lu Xun was only forty years at this time, so his son could also use him.

Of course, this is Ma Chao's long-term plan. As for whether he can be completely unified within ten years, although he is confident, he must admit it, but there are also variables.

Nothing must be absolute, and there are many variables. As for whether there is or not, and no one knows how many there is. Although he has confidence in himself and his own soldiers, this thing does not mean that you can succeed if you have confidence. Then others still have confidence, but there is only one who wins in the end.

-----------------------------------------------------

Ma Chao really doesn't want to be a person with unfulfilled ambitions, so he knows that he has to continue moving forward on his own path and gather more talents. It is best not to let go of it. In that way, he will be one step closer to unifying the world, right?

After seeing everyone leaving, only he and Lu Xun were left in the tent. Ma Chao smiled at Lu Xun, "Boyan knows what I mean, okay, very good! Hahaha!"

Lu Xun also smiled, "I want to congratulate the general. The matter of the Southern Barbarians is about to be resolved!"

After actually seeing the confrontation between the soldiers of the Southern Barbarians and the soldiers of the Liangzhou Army, Lu Xun knew it clearly. Ma Chao personally led the generals and the Liangzhou Army to fight against the small Southern Barbarians. Although the Southern Barbarians are also good, they are definitely the alien with weak combat power. So although Lu Xun would not underestimate the enemy, he really would not look down on them too much.

Ma Chao smiled and said, "Touboyan is a good person, but I hope that this will happen. If so, our soldiers will return to Chengdu as soon as possible!"

-----------------------------------------------------

Aren’t the soldiers like this? If they have been away from home for a long time, there are a few who don’t want to go home. So Ma Chao knew in his heart that the war between the Southern Barbarians should not be delayed for too long. The war in Jingzhou had been in Jingzhou for a long time, so if Jingzhou could be stable and peaceful for a while, Ma Chao would be ready to let the Liangzhou army retreat first and then change to another batch of new ones. However, Ma Chao also knew about this, and it was not that easy.

After all, this is not something you can decide by yourself, and it has a lot to do with Cao Cao and the others, right?

Lu Xun smiled when he heard this. He didn't say much about it anymore, but he still asked knowingly: "I don't know what the general has to say next? Everyone was there before, but I don't know why the general couldn't say it?"

When Ma Chao heard this, he thought to himself that although Lu Xun is young, he is not bad at all those old guys. It’s true that you can’t underestimate Lu Boyan, otherwise you might not know how he died in the end.

"Oh. Of course, there is something important to say to Bo Yan. Bo Yan, listen to me and say it slowly!"

-----------------------------------------------------

Ma Chao knew everything he should say, right? It’s time to hide what he wanted. That’s right, “It’s all wolves, why pretend to be sheep”. “It’s all water, why pretend to be pure”. What do they mean? Who doesn’t know what they mean? So really, don’t hide it, let’s say what they say. Ma Chao and Lu Xun both mean this at this time.

When Lu Xun heard that Ma Chao was about to talk about his purpose, he smiled and said, "General, I'm listening attentively! Please!"

Ma Chao nodded, and then said, "Boyan has been there since he met me in Bajun Yufu until today, right?"

Lu Xun smiled and nodded, "The general's words are good, that's exactly!"

After saying that, he was staring at Ma Chao, and he wanted to see what he was going to say. Then he heard Ma Chao continue saying, "I just don't know what Bo Yan has to do in the future?"

-----------------------------------------------------

After hearing Ma Chao's words, Lu Xun thought to himself that the key point has come, and Ma Mengqi began to lobby himself to join their Liangzhou army. But according to his own opinion, he was just too hasty, so he did it step by step, first showing goodwill, and then slowly talking.

Sure enough, Lu Xun and Ma Chao had similar ideas. He said he was thinking almost what Ma Chao thought. However, Ma Chao was not very clear. His little bit of it had been seen through by Lu Xun. But even so, Lu Xun still wanted to hear how Ma Chao convinced him. If Lu Xun was not interested in the Liangzhou army, he was really not going to come here with Ma Chao, so many of Ma Chao's ideas were correct.

And indeed, we can't expect Lu Xun to say that he joined the Liangzhou Army and then bow down, then Lu Xun could not be so proactive. Unless Ma Chao really impressed him, convinced him, and truly convinced him, knowing that he could have better and greater development in the Liangzhou Army, then Lu Xun could really bow down. After all, no matter how powerful Lu Xun was, he was just a strategist, but Ma Chao was a powerful prince in the world with hundreds of thousands of Liangzhou Army.

-----------------------------------------------------

Lu Xun thought for a while, then said to Ma Chao: "General, I still want to travel around the world. After all, the world is so big, but there are many places, but I have never been there before!"

Ma Chao thought, what is this reason? Perfunctory, Lu Boyan is perfunctory himself. The world is so big that you can't have been to anywhere, that's impossible. At least Ma Chao has never heard of anyone who has been to any place. That's only in fantasy.

But he can't say anything, at least he can't say you, Lu Xun, don't go, follow me and go to fight the world. If you say this, you really don't have a good level, and Lu Xun will never say that you want to join your side just because of these few words. This is also impossible.

Then Ma Chao still had to persuade Lu Xun to let him speak out and change his mind. This would be better. Although Ma Chao also knew that Lu Xun's words were probably not true, he could not help but persuade him. This is necessary, his sincerity.

-----------------------------------------------------

At this moment, Ma Chao laughed and said, "Hahaha! Bo Yan, although this idea is good, but..."

Halfway through, Ma Chao shook his head slowly, Lu Xun followed Ma Chao, and he asked, "I don't know what the general meant, but what?"

Ma Chaoxin said, you, Lu Xun, are quite good-looking, "You can teach me." Well, it seems that you are not rejecting your own side after all, so right? Sooner or later, you, Lu Boyan, will definitely be a counselor under my Liangzhou Army. I will take you to pacify the world, hahaha!

If such a person is joined, Ma Chao will of course be very happy. For him, it is indeed the case. It is true that who can still dislike his few talents? Anyway, no one in the world, whether it is Cao Cao, Sun Ce or Liu Bei, is like this. Similarly, Ma Chao will not dislike it, that's it.

As for Lu Xun who is really, he really doesn't want to join his own side or be his subordinate, then Ma Chao knows it, so let him go. If you come into contact today, you will make a good relationship at that time, just like that. As for killing people, Ma Chao is really reluctant to let go. Ma Chao will not be merciful, but it is against the enemy and the enemy. As for the love of talent, he is indeed very strong, and he is reluctant to take action. It's true.

-----------------------------------------------------

Ma Chao said, "Boyan, please think that even if you spend your whole life, it will be impossible to get all the places you have. So since that's the case, I think it's OK as long as you go to the place you want to go. So if that's the case, I think there won't be too many places for Boyan to go, right?"

Ma Chao knew that Lu Xun had left home very early, and he didn't have to be much younger at the beginning, so it should be right to use this to persuade him. (To be continued...)
