Great Wei Nengchen

Lang Wei took out the key, opened the iron gate, bowed and saluted, and retreated with a few jailers. Regardless of whether Xiao Yi has a rank or not, once the military order is issued, he must obey it. This has penetrated into his bones!

"Today's visit is just to have a drink and talk, there is no malice, you can rest assured!"

Xiao Yi walked into the prison cell, sat down cross-legged, took out various delicacies, poured two bowls of fine wine, and took a sip first to show his respect and let the other side off guard!

"Could it be that your Excellency is Brother Xiao Yi, the most prominent figure in the prison, with the aura of raising his hands and feet, he should be from a military background, what can you tell me?"

After all, it is a hero, Kuanglong's vision is extremely precise, and he can see a lot of information from the opponent's actions. As for the opponent's purpose, he has guessed some of it to some extent!

Fighting for hegemony in troubled times, separatism among princes, territory is the lifeline, and the army is the capital. In order to expand their troops, they will do everything they can. To sum it up, there are three methods:

First, he spared no expense in recruiting warriors, high-ranking officials and high salaries, and buying people's hearts. Cao Cao is one of the masters. In order to recruit talents, he is willing to spend as much money as he wants!

Second, forcefully pull and recruit strong men. Since you have no money, or are reluctant to spend money, then use some hooligan methods, recruit men from the common people, put on armor, and issue weapons, and you will be a soldier. Most of the armies of the princes came this way!

The third is to recruit bandits and grassroots bandits, stragglers, no matter what background, no matter what they have done, as long as they are willing to serve, they will all be incorporated into the army and act as daredevils!

The 'Four Beasts of Hell' are highly skilled, and they are all talents who charge into battle. When they first occupied the mountain as king, some princes came to win them over and promised the position of general. Unfortunately, Kuanglong didn't want to be controlled by others and continued to be his own king of the mountain. !

After being imprisoned in the dungeon, the imperial court also sent people to persuade them, hoping that they would correct their evil ways and accept Zhao'an. In the future, they will be high-ranking officials and richly paid, and their wives and sons will be sealed. Unfortunately, they refused again. Brothers kill with loyalty, don't be court hawks and dogs to survive!

"The four of you have good skills. It's a pity to be trapped in prison. Be my personal bodyguard. Your future is limitless!"

Talking to smart people is easy, Xiao Yi cut straight to the point, and directly stated his own conditions, no official position, no money, only one hope!

"Haha!... It's not impossible to let our brother be the bodyguard. Please give me a good reason?"

After listening to the conditions offered by the other party, Kuanglong couldn't help laughing up to the sky. Many people came to Zhao'an, and the conditions offered were even more generous. Interesting!

"I'm a white man now, so I can't give you official titles. As for the reason... Do you think this is enough?"

Xiao Yi's eyes were concentrated, and his whole body exuded a monstrous murderous aura, as if thousands of ghosts were crying. At the same time, with his fingers dipped in wine, he wrote four words on the bluestone board - ghost face Xiao Lang!

"Hiss!...Ghost-faced Xiao Lang!"

Looking at the handwriting on the ground, Kuanglong couldn't help but take a deep breath, the name of the person, the shadow of the tree, the great man in the world, who doesn't know the ghost face Xiao Lang? Since his debut, he has killed people like hemp and flowed blood like rivers. Hearing his name, everyone in the world is terrified!

As for the identity of the other party, Kuang Long had no doubts. Such a strong murderous aura made him feel terrified. There is no other person who can have such an aura except the current "Killing God"!

"Thank you for taking a look at it, I'm very proud of it, but it's too important, we brothers need to discuss it!"

The mad dragon did not refuse, it is a great shame to be a personal bodyguard for others, if it is "Ghost Face Xiao Lang", it is completely different, not only is it not a shame, but a kind of glory, which shows that in the "Killing God" 'In my eyes, the four of them also have some skills!

"From today onwards, you are free to move around freely, inside and outside the dungeon, come in and out as you like, enjoy delicious food, and think about the future, but my patience is limited-- if the autumn wind blows and the leaves turn yellow, if If there is no answer, the head falls to the ground!"

After saying this, Xiao Yi got up to leave, and at the same time left behind a bunch of keys, which are used to open the chains and prison doors of the four beasts. Freedom is in front of them. Let's see if they come out?

............................................................................................................

After walking out of the cell, Xiao Yi did not leave in a hurry, his gaze turned, and he landed on the cell to the north, where the prisoner was the last of the four beasts - the poisonous leopard!

In the team of the Four Beasts of Hell, the Kuanglong is the leader and is responsible for making major decisions. The Juehu and the Violent Bear are the minions and are responsible for charging into the battle. Kuanglong's eyes turned to the north several times, which is the best proof!

Relying on a pair of iron fists, he subdued the violent bear, and with his wrist skills, he subdued Juehu. Now, after some high-spirited speeches, he touched the mad dragon's heart, and the rest is the most intelligent poisonous leopard. You can't use force, you can only use wisdom!

"Whoosh!... Patta!"

Thinking of this, Xiao Yi took out something from his bosom and entered the cell of the poisonous leopard. Don't worry, this thing is neither gold, silver or jewelry, nor a peerless treasure, but a toy that challenges wisdom - Nine Links !

Among later generations, Jiulianhuan is a kind of educational toy, also known as "retaining guest ring". It is made of gold wire to make nine rings, which are set on a horizontal board and run through the ring handle. They are repeated according to certain procedures. By operating, the nine rings can be untied separately or combined into one, because there are too many steps and the difficulty is too great, and non-smart people can't play it!

Xiao Yi is extremely intelligent. In his previous life, he was a master of Nine Chains. He has challenged various ways to play and memorized some master's strategies. Therefore, he searched for materials all night and spent a whole day, and finally made Nine Chains!

The one designed by Xiao Yi is the most difficult "Nine Links of Butterflies". Completely untie the nine rings, if you make a wrong step, all previous efforts will be wasted, it is definitely a toy to drive people crazy!

Poison Leopard is a traitor of the Mohist school. His patriarch's idea of ​​"benevolence and non-aggression" has long been thrown out of the sky, but he has a crazy hobby for mechanical design. This is also a common problem among Mohist children, because the patriarch - Mo Di, He is a mechanical master who has defeated a generation of master craftsman-Lu Ban nine times, which is also the pride of the Mo family!

The prison is empty and boring, now seeing Jiu Lianhuan, Du Bao must be very itchy, as long as he starts playing... Hehe, he will fall into the trap!

"The nine-twist series is full of mysteries. Separate the movement and movement to hide the hardness and softness. You can walk up, down, left, and right. Why worry about movement and stillness? The two methods of yin and yang are followed, and the five elements and eight trigrams must be practiced diligently. If you want to understand the method, only the wise seek it!"

Chapter 818 And the master of thin mud!

Jizhou-Yecheng, the gates of the four cities are closed, the streets are under martial law, and tens of thousands of armored troops are fortified at every level. One post at five steps and one sentry at ten steps. No one is allowed to enter or leave. Archers are also sent to monitor the commanding heights in the city. If there is a slight change, shoot and kill immediately, coupled with the constant cavalry, not to mention enemy spies, even a rabbit can't get in!

Half a month ago, General Yuan Shao issued an order: "Call all civil and military officials from the four prefectures of Hebei to Yecheng to prepare for an important meeting." Martial law!

"Hebei's civil and military affairs have all come to this point. The matter is of great importance. All the idlers will retreat, close the gate of the palace, and send more guards. Anyone who dares to peek at the secrets - beheaded!"

The great general Yuan Shao was wearing a golden armor, a panlong helmet on his head, and a sword in his hand, sitting on the main seat. Behind him stood his three sons, Yuan Tan, Yuan Xi, and Yuan Shang, who also had bright armor and armor. Heroic and extraordinary!

The fourth and third sons of the Yuan family are of noble family status, they care about face, they care about ostentation, and they are the most ceremonial. No matter what the occasion, they must be well-dressed before going out to meet people. Now it is July, and the weather is hot and the heat is unbearable. The Yuan family father and son wore heavy armor, and sweat quickly soaked the inner robe, which was fishy and greasy. '

In contrast, the rules of the old enemy, the Cao family, are much more relaxed. Except when going to court, Cao Cao always wears a uniform, not looking for gorgeousness, as long as it is comfortable, and sometimes he will lie on his upper body in the hot weather. As for enjoying the cool weather, even if important ministers come to discuss matters, they are still 'frank and honest', which is called 'a great hero does not care about trifles! '

"See the great general! --The meritorious deeds are so great that the world admires them!"

What kind of lord there is, there is what kind of courtiers. The hundreds of officials in Hebei lined up neatly. Absolutely top-notch, but what is the situation, only self-knowledge!

It was hot in July, the sun was shining brightly, the doors and windows of the main hall were closed tightly, and there was no cool breeze. In addition, there were a large number of participants, who were constantly emitting heat. After a while, many people were sweating profusely, and their minds became dizzy. It is inevitable to become a little impatient when thinking about things, and I just hope that the meeting will end soon!

Yuan Shao summoned civil and military officials to come, of course not to 'practice the queue, show ostentation, and then have a collective heat stroke', the main purpose of this meeting is: 'send troops to the south, crusade against Cao Cao, unify the Central Plains, and sweep the world! '

Between Cao and Yuan, there must be a battle. The winner will own the world, and the loser will be wiped out. The Yellow Turban... is the embodiment of this will. Now that the truth and the facts are known, it's time for the final decisive battle!

"How about the money, food and grass saved in the four prefectures of Hebei, and how much can be harvested from this year's taxation, please report it quickly!"

The soldiers and horses have not moved, the food and grass go first, especially in the decisive battle of tens of thousands of people, the huge consumption of money and food is definitely an astronomical figure, Yuan Shao is also well aware of this!

"My lord, this year's weather is good, the sunshine is abundant, and the crops are growing very well. After autumn, there will definitely be a bumper harvest. It is estimated that the tax and grain will be more than one million hu!

In addition, checkpoints have been set up in various places in Hebei, and a [-]% business tax is levied, and hundreds of thousands of gold can be obtained. In addition to the property donated by the two big chaebols of the Zhen family and the Liang family, the treasury can be regarded as some wealth! "

The counselor - Jushou stepped forward. He was in charge of taxation. He has been traveling around for more than half a year, working day and night on government affairs, and finally accumulated some wealth, but it is still far from enough to feed the people and fill the treasury!

"How is the training of the soldiers and horses in the four states... How many weapons, armors, horses, and siege equipment are prepared?"

The feudal lords' hegemony relies on strong soldiers and horses, and excellent equipment. For this reason, Yuan Shao entrusted the task of training soldiers and horses to the most capable generals!

"My lord, after more than half a year of recruitment, the number of soldiers and horses in Hebei has exceeded 40. As for the weapons and armor, craftsmen have crafted them day and night, and they have been transported to the army one after another. Tens of thousands of good horses have been bought from the Xiongnu tribe. Enough to equip a cavalry!"

Zhang Jai and Gao Lan stood up. In order to train the troops, the two have been living in the barracks. It can be said that they have tried their best. However, after several battles, Hebei soldiers and horses suffered heavy losses. Half of them were newly recruited soldiers, and their combat effectiveness was not strong. , You need to step up your training!

"How is the elimination of the Yellow Turban remnants? Are there still mobs in various counties and counties?"

When the army goes out, the rear must be stable. This is what Yuan Shao is most worried about. The previous "Black Mountain Yellow Turban" chaos had a great impact on his psychology!
