Great Wei Nengchen

At that moment, Su Shuang recounted all the things that the caravan had seen and heard along the way. They traveled all over the world, and they couldn't be more clear about the things everywhere. There were great changes in Luoyang, various rumors about the new emperor's accession to the throne, and Dong Zhuo's domination of the capital. The twists and turns... Su Shuang slowly talked about major events, not to mention, this businessman's eloquence is really good, and he is well-read and knowledgeable, so he explained things clearly, Liu Bei The three brothers all listened attentively, and many people were naturally mentioned in the conversation, "Great General He Jin, Shi Changshi, Situ Wangyun, Yuan brothers, Flying General Lu Bu, and that "ghost-faced Xiao Lang" whom everyone fears!" '

When the host and guest were happy, when Su and Zhang got up to say goodbye and left, Liu Bei personally sent them out of the gate. The two were excited again. When they returned to the living room, Liu Bei looked at Guan with a sad face and a hint of joy in his sorrow. The two brothers Zhang and Zhang said: "This world is going to be in chaos..."

212. Chapter 212 Qianlong Liu Bei ([-])

"Close the door and light the incense!" Back in the inner hall, Liu Bei sat cross-legged and began to meditate with his eyes closed. The old servant outside hastily closed the door to isolate the small courtyard from the outside world. Guan Yu took out a piece of aloes thick as a thumb I lit it, inserted it in the middle of the lobby, and then stood side by side with Zhang Fei, guarding the eldest brother so that he would not be disturbed. This incense contains tiger bone, musk and other medicinal herbs for concentration. Whenever Liu Bei wants to decide on important matters, he will light it Put one on one, then sit cross-legged quietly, thinking about the success or failure of things over and over again!

Liu Bei was born in a poor family and did not receive much education, but he was gifted with a unique ability, that is, he can make decisions on major events. He can pick out the useful ones from countless pieces of information, and then carefully analyze and compare them. Predicting the direction of things, especially being extremely sensitive to some potential dangers, it is this magical ability that has allowed him to escape countless times!

Now that the situation is raging and the world will be in chaos, it is the time for heroes to take advantage of the opportunity. To achieve great things, there must be three conditions, first, fame, second, assistants, and third, money!

"I, Liu Bei, am the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, a dignified clan member of the Han family. In terms of fame, it is enough to tell!" Thinking of his own background, Liu Bei nodded secretly. This is the only thing left by his ancestors Although it is said that the blood has been very thin in his generation, as long as the surname is Liu, it is a natural political capital. I think that Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty, also raised troops as a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and finally Sweeping the world and creating a situation of "Guangwu Zhongxing"? Since they are all descendants of the Han Dynasty and have encountered troubled times with rare opportunities, what Liu Xiu can do, so can I, Liu Bei!

"Let's talk about this assistant!" Liu Bei looked back at Guan and Zhang beside him. Since their three brothers became sworn brothers in Taoyuan, they swore to live and die together. It is a great blessing in life to have them to help you, to be with you forever and ever, and to have them help you. Of course, if there are more assistants like this, it will be even better!

"As for the last item, money?" Liu Bei gets a headache when he thinks of this. He sells straw sandals, and his second brother Guan Yu sells mung beans. Born in pork, the family has a little money, but it was exhausted when Taoyuan became righteous and gathered Xiangyong. It can be said that the three brothers now have nothing but their own weapons and horses!

"Since ancient times, there has been no food and no soldiers! You need money to recruit soldiers and buy horses, and you still need money to buy weapons and armor, but where does the money come from?" Thinking of this, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel a tumbling in his heart. Now that everything is ready, he only owes money and food. If there is a large amount of money and food support, Liu Bei believes that he will be able to show his talents in the chaotic world in the future.

"Money? Food!..."

"Brother is worried about money and food?" After all, it was his brother, Guan Yu immediately guessed what his brother was thinking from Liu Bei's mouth.

"That's right, it's money and food. Now the world is going to be chaotic. If my brothers want to make a difference, they must have money and food. Only with money and food can we recruit soldiers and horses, accumulate grass and store food, morality, benevolence, and other things. I can only talk about it." , I can’t fill my belly!” Liu Bei had nothing to hide from his brothers, and he said everything in his heart.

"Then Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping are doing business and selling horses from the grassland. They have a lot of money. Why don't you ask them for help? With their conduct, I think they won't refuse!" Looking at the few horses in the courtyard The Xiongnu war horse, Guan Yu thinks this is a way.

"It's a drop in the bucket, I'm afraid it won't help!" It's not that Liu Bei never thought about talking to Su and Zhang, but it's not like before. When they were in Taoyuan, they just gathered hundreds of townships to join the army, such as Su Shuang and Zhang Shiping. It is enough for some merchants to support them, but now the situation is different. What Liu Bei wants to plan is the great affairs of the world. up.

"Hey! Without the support of a huge family, without a fundamental foundation to provide money and food, it is difficult to achieve great things!"

"Don't worry, big brother, little brother has a way to get a lot of money and food!" Seeing the two brothers worrying, Mr. Zhang, who had been drinking heavily, suddenly stood up with a confident look on his face!

"What is the third brother's good plan? Tell me quickly!" Liu Bei knew very well that his third brother was rough and subtle. Although he was a little reckless on weekdays, sometimes he could come up with unexpected ideas and make some little surprises.

"Brother, do you know that there is a Liang family in Jixian County, the owner is named Liang Wanwan, and they are the number one wealthy businessman in Youzhou. 'Worryless Liquor' is produced in their workshop, and it sells well in countless counties and counties in Kyushu, and earns countless money every year. If the Liang family is willing to help, the matter of money and food will be much easier!"

"That's right, I've heard people say that the Liang family is in the south of Jixian County. It's a big house. There are not a thousand rooms, but eight hundred rooms. It's really extraordinary. I heard that the Liang family has a young head. His name is Liang Xiaoyu. This man has an obscene face and is not good-looking, but he is a genius in business and has already surpassed his father. If the elder brother is willing to go, he must help!" Guan Yu on the side also agreed, this second master Guan He is also obsessed with martial arts, and rarely asks about the affairs of Ji County. Now even he can tell a thing or two, which shows the great influence of the Liang family.

"Well, what the two virtuous brothers said is very true. We will visit the Liang family early tomorrow morning!" Finally, Liu Bei made a final decision!

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………

Early the next morning, Liu Bei bathed and changed his clothes, tidied up, took Guan and Zhang with him, and headed straight to the Liang Mansion in the south of the city. As soon as he arrived at the gate of the Liang Mansion, he saw groups of caravans setting off. There are as many as a hundred trucks, and from the deep ruts on the ground, it is known that these vehicles must be loaded with heavy goods such as refined iron; Liu Bei couldn't help but secretly startled when he saw these vehicles, so much refined iron, if used to make soldiers In terms of blade, it is more than enough to equip tens of thousands of people. It seems that there are not many people in the world who have the same thoughts as me!

The leader of the caravan was a short, dark-skinned young man who was instructing the guys to check the vehicles. Although this man was not good looking, he was full of wealth and nobility. Gold decorations, gold hairpins, gold belts, gold hooks, and a large gold abacus in his hand, the beads of the abacus jingle as he walks around, and he only needs to engrave five large characters on his forehead - I am rich Humans are simply vulgar to the extreme!

After inquiring with passers-by, I found out that the gleaming guy is Liang Xiaoyu, the Ninth Young Master of the Liang Mansion, and also the most beloved son of the head of the Liang family. He looks very vulgar, but he is a good businessman. It is said that his ability to make money has surpassed his father. Many people compliment him--Liang Caishen!

"Master, be careful all the way!" Steward Cui, who is getting older, is bidding farewell to his Ninth Young Master. It stands to reason that the Liang family has a big business, with countless shopkeepers and assistants at all levels, so there is no need for Liang Xiaoyu to make this trip, but Ninth Young Master insists In this way, if you say you are doing something for a friend, you must personally do it!

"Uncle Cui, please go back. During Xiaoyu's absence, Uncle Cui will be exhausted by family affairs, and please tell your father that my son's departure will definitely expand the business roads of my Liang family and go further! After bowing and saluting, Liang Xiaoyu got on his horse and shouted vigorously to the guys behind him, "Let's go!"

This time, Liang Xiaoyu personally escorted hundreds of carts of refined iron to make a loss-making business, but our "God of Wealth Liang" looked very happy, because his destination for this business trip was Bingzhou- Yanmen Pass!

Except for Xiao Yi, there is probably no one in the world who can use a letter to let his majestic Ninth Master of the Liang family deliver the goods over thousands of miles. It can be said that the car is not loaded with goods, but Liang Xiaoyu and Xiao Yu. The friendship between Yi and Yi, the friendship of sharing joys and sorrows in the last moments!

Watching the caravan go away, Liu Bei came to the gate of Liang Mansion, saluted Steward Cui and said, "Queen of King Jing of Zhongshan-Liu Bei, come to pay a visit to the head of the Liang family, and ask the old man to pass the report on his behalf!"

"Oh! Distinguished guests coming to the door, I am sorry to welcome you from far away, I am sorry! I am sorry! Come, please come inside!" If ordinary people came to the door, old housekeeper Cui would send them away immediately. There is also a three-point respect here, ordinary small officials can't even enter the door, but Liu Bei surprised him when he reported his family name, the clan of the Han family, let alone the Liang family , even the emperor's golden palace can go!

Furthermore, Liu Bei is handsome, and his bearing is even more extraordinary. Old Steward Cui has seen countless people in his life, but he has never seen a few such characters, so he dare not neglect him at all. People fly to report to their masters!

In this way, Liu Bei entered the Liang Mansion smoothly, and was led to the small garden at the back, where the head of the house, Liang Wanwan, used to entertain distinguished guests. Non-human dragons and phoenixes were not allowed to enter. Undoubtedly, Liu Bei won this qualification.

No one knows what Liu Bei and Liang Wanwan talked about in the inside, because even Guan and Zhang can only guard the door, and old housekeeper Cui only goes in occasionally when serving tea and water, but when the two When Liu Bei left after hours, Liang Wanwan, who never leaves easily, personally sent him to the gate with an extremely respectful attitude!

This surprised Old Steward Cui. Over the years, there are only a handful of people who can be sent out by his master himself. The last one was Xiao Yi, and now he is famous all over the world. Is it the origin of the clan of the Han family?"

"Hehe, although the clansmen of the Han family are dignified, there are quite a few of them in the world. If so, it is not worth seeing the old man personally!" Liang Wanwan's words are not exaggerated at all. Power, a mere family member of the declining Han family, does not deserve such courtesy from him.

"Could it be that the head of the family admires this person's extraordinary demeanor and looks like a nobleman?" Old Butler Cui asked again in doubt.

"Hehe! The old man admires his thick skin. Based on this, there will be such a person in the world in the future!" Looking at Liu Bei's far away figure, Liang Wanwan must have said it abnormally. will be wrong!

213. Chapter 213 Xiao Lang is hard to seal

"Is this true? What a Xiao Yi, what a 'ghost-faced Xiao Lang', he is worthy of being a general of the sky, a general of the sky!" Zhang Yang was holding the battle report in Jinyang, the Governor's Mansion of Bingzhou Government In a daze, it is really hard to believe that this battle report is true, but the fact is that the Yanmen Gate has been held, the Huns have retreated, and the confidant has disturbed the border for several years. , oh my god!Mr. Zhang Yang's spiritual world almost collapsed all of a sudden!

When he got the news that the Huns' [-] troops were going south, Zhang Yang was almost scared out of his wits. There were not many defenders in Bingzhou, and the most elite part of them was taken to Luoyang by the previous governor Ding Yuan. In the end, Dong Zhuo was taken advantage of in vain. Soldiers are approaching the city, what do you want our Master Zhang to do to resist those prairie wolves that come and go like flying!

After thinking about it, after hundreds of circles in the room, Zhang Shishi finally came up with a good way to deal with the enemy, that is-run away from the Huns, wouldn't it be all right, especially his After Mu Shun, his confidant, came back from Yanmen Pass, Zhang Yang became more determined in his running strategy and ran back, but Zhang Yang still had a sense of responsibility. He didn't run alone, but he wanted to take the people around Jinyang with him. The people ran together, went south, crossed Shangdang, and ran all the way to the south of Bingzhou. If it is not safe, then simply retreat across the Yellow River!

However, before Zhang Inspector Zhang’s package was finished, the battle report of Yanmen Pass came. Zhang Yang, who couldn’t believe it, hurriedly sent an envoy to confirm it. It turned out that the battle report was correct, and more than [-] Xiongnu soldiers were indeed killed. The giant 'Jingguan' is the best proof!The envoy came back with a whip, the whip of Yu Fuluo, the great Shanyu of the Huns, and there is no objection now!

Inspector Zhang was furious when he finally came to his senses, and his first reaction was to whip Mu Shun, "Didn't you say that the Huns' army was unstoppable? Didn't you say that the Yanmen defenders were panicked, and even the brave Xuanjia Army Are you ready to run away? The result? Xiao Yi not only defended the Yanmen Pass, but also made such outstanding military exploits. Fortunately, you, Mu Shun, as the general of Yanmen, fled without even seeing the shadow of the Huns. The great credit is given away in vain. I know you have no skills, but don’t you have an expert around you, don’t you know how to use it? The old man who killed me almost ran away and beat you to death! You can’t forgive me even if you are killed. !"

"My lord, don't be angry. The last general is incompetent. You're embarrassing your lord!" Facing the whip that hit his head and face, Mu Shun didn't even dare to hide. With a sigh of relief, Zhang Yang is willing to beat him with a whip, which means he still treats him as his own person. As long as he is his own person, even if this test is passed, he will not beat him even if he is afraid, that is really troublesome!

But Mu Shun also hated, hated Xiao Yi, you were able to defend the Yanmen Pass, but you pretended to be dying in battle, and you were so scared that you ran away all night, how could you still have the face to go back to Yanmen Pass now!The position of the chief general must not be kept, and he was whipped. This hatred, this hatred, I, Mu Shun, will keep it in my heart!

"Hey!" Finally tired, Zhang Yang sat down on the ground, looking at Mu Shun who was covered with welts, he really had nothing to say. Except for incompetence, Mu Shun is actually very good in other aspects, "Diligent , obedient, loyal, never self-assertive...', it was in stark contrast to that talented but rebellious Xiao Yi, one was an eagle soaring nine days, although it flew high, it was not easy to control, and the other One is the old hen nesting in the haystack. Although it is a bit useless, it can't stand it and can lay an egg for itself every day, isn't it, ah, why can't these two people reconcile?

Youyou heaven, why are you so mean to this old man!

"My lord, no matter what, that Xiao Yi is also your subordinate, and Yanmen Pass is also a city under your rule. Now you have repelled the Huns' invasion and even shot and killed the Huns Shan Yu-Yu Fuluo. This is your good command! It's so monstrous Great achievement, you should present your victory to the court immediately!" Seeing that Zhang Yang's anger had subsided a little, Mu Shun posted it like a dog.

"That's right!" The words awakened the man in the dream, and Zhang Yang remembered that he was the governor of Bingzhou, a legitimate governor of a state, and he should be rewarded for making such a great contribution to the court. As for the victory report How to write it, isn’t it the old man who has the final say? I said that whoever has made meritorious deeds will have made meritorious deeds.

Thinking of this, when Zhang Yang looked at Mu Shun, he immediately felt much more pleasing to the eye. No matter when, a 'slave' is more caring than a 'talent'!

Ever since, under the pen of Zhang Cishi, a new version of the Yanmen War appeared. It is recorded in this way: Hearing that the Huns invaded, our Lord Zhang Cishi was not afraid of danger, strategized, first showed the enemy his weakness, and pretended to be weak. The appearance of running away, of course, this is a tactic of arrogant soldiers, and then after the Huns were really paralyzed, they sent out surprise soldiers and defeated the Huns army with one drum. In the fierce battle, our governor Zhang took the lead. He personally drew his sword to supervise the battle. Although he was injured in many places, he did not retreat. He boosted the morale of the three armies with his brave and fearless behavior, and laid a good foundation for this victory!

As for the strength of the Huns, with a swipe of a pen, 20 became [-], and the number of enemies killed became more than [-]. Anyway, the imperial court could not really send people down to count heads one by one. 'Jingguan' is here, why can't you blow it up!

However, Zhang Yang has a bit of a conscience, and he still wrote a few words in the victory report, "In this battle, Xiao Yi, the commander of the Xuanjia Army, personally took the arrows and stones, and went forward bravely. He even shot and killed the Xiongnu Shanyu with one arrow. Please reward him ! '

After writing this, Zhang Yang looked at Mu Shun who was looking at him pitifully like a puppy, sighed, and finally added a few words, "Mu Shun, the chief general of the Yanmen, is the first to report the news, and he is also in charge of transporting grain and grass. Finally, you have made great achievements for your hard work, please reward Yunyun..."

After finishing the good report, together with the seized whip, the eight hundred li horse was sent to Luoyang.

……………………………………………………………………………………………… ……………………

Xiao Yi still doesn't know that his credit has shrunk a lot, even if he knows, he doesn't care, the so-called rewards of the imperial court are just a little name, even if he is made a marquis, so what, in the chaos of the world soon , Soldiers and horses are the foundation of one's life, so the most urgent task now is to recruit soldiers and horses to restore strength!

In this battle, the Xuanjia Army lost one-third, and officers at all levels suffered heavy casualties, because under Xiao Yi's leadership, the Xuanjia Army's combat style was, "Brothers, follow me, not brothers." Let's go to me', every time a battle starts, the officers rush to the forefront, and the casualties will naturally be heavy!

Soldiers have to be replenished, officers have to be promoted, and weapons, horses, food and grass, all need to be replenished. Now Xiao Yi, as the acting chief general of the Yanmen, began to post recruitment notices wantonly. His conditions for conscription are very simple. It is three, 'one is physically strong, two, bears hardships and stands hard work, and three is not afraid of death! '
