The Strongest Lu Bu: Sweeping the World

A group of people came towards Changyi City.

The mighty team attracted the attention of many people who came to greet them.

Approaching Changyi City, Lu Bu frowned slightly when he saw many people outside the city.

Seeing this, Chen Gong explained: "The people in the city heard that Marquis Wen is coming, and rushed to meet him outside the city."

"So that's the case. I didn't expect this Marquis to have such prestige among the people of Yanzhou." Lu Bu laughed.

The people of Yanzhou took the initiative to greet them outside the city. This shows that what the pastoral mansion of Yanzhou has done in the past has been recognized by the people. This kind of recognition may not be enough for Lu Bu now, but it is a good start. The people under the government have a sense of belonging, and they will have more support for the government.

Of course, the premise of all this is that the survival of the people can be guaranteed, so that they will not encounter more difficulties in their lives.

Chapter 632 Lu Bu's Praise

At this point, Lu Bu needs to work harder, not to mention other things, just letting the common people get their own fields is not an easy task.

The land is more in the hands of the aristocratic family, and it is a bit difficult to take the land from the aristocratic family. It must be known that these families have a cautious attitude when dealing with the land.

In the past, when the rulers were not strong enough, these families even dared to find loopholes in taxation.

For the people of aristocratic families, as long as it is beneficial to the development of their family, there is nothing they dare not do.

And the existence of Lu Bu better curbed the actions of these families, and made these families understand more about what kind of results they would have when they stood on the opposite side of the ruler.

In Lu Bu's view, there is a long way to go for the real development of the rule, but on this road, there is no turning back, and Lu Bu will always persevere.

No matter how vulgar a general is, when he achieves achievements that attract the attention of the world, more people will remember his achievements rather than his crimes.

Bearing the infamy, Lu Bu would not be depressed, but after the troubled times of the end of Han Dynasty, he was burdened with infamy, and Lu Bu also had a lot of helplessness.

If all of this can be changed, Lu Bu will do it without hesitation. The key is that Lu Bu’s current impression on the world is like this. No matter what kind of efforts he has made, it will not happen overnight if he wants to change people’s ideas. .

Scholars, self-proclaimed to be lofty, have discussions with the princes of the world. If the actions of some princes make these scholars feel dissatisfied, they will even criticize them. This kind of thing is very common in the big man.

The aristocratic family has a great influence, and it is not something that Lu Bu can do now if he wants to fight against the literati in the world.

"Judging from the reported situation, Gongtai has achieved good results in governing Yanzhou." Lu Bu praised.

Chen Gong cupped his hands and said: "Thanks to Marquis Wen's trust, my subordinates dare not slacken the slightest slack when governing Yanzhou. The current achievements are not great."

In front of Lu Bu, Chen Gong was quite polite.

This is also the attitude that should be shown as a subordinate of Lu Bu. Chen Gong was able to have the position of Yanzhou Shepherd because of Lu Bu's recommendation. If it were not for Lu Bu, even if Chen Gong had a more dazzling performance in the officialdom, it would not be possible One step to become Yanzhou Mu.

Even if Chen Gong has the ability to serve as the shepherd of Yanzhou, it will not work.

If a talent wants to be valued, he must not only have a dazzling performance, but also need to be recommended. The weight of the recommended person determines how the talent will get the official position.

Facts have proved that when Lu Bu, who won the victory on the battlefield, recommended Chen Gong, he got the approval of the court.

Naturally, Lu Bu knew what the court was like at the beginning. When the princes treated the court, they didn't have more respect to speak of. Powerful princes only need to report the officials they recommend, and they can often get the court's approval. .

These things are not the helplessness of the court.

After Dong Zhuo was eradicated, the court was still not in a stable state, and there were even successive turbulences, which caused the court's influence among the princes to decline again.

If this situation continues, the imperial court will become a dispensable existence for the princes, and the great Han may evolve into the situation of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States.

The powerful princes ruled on one side, and dismissed the orders of the court, and the court was just a display.

Now the Han royal family is evolving towards this step.

Among the princes of the Han Dynasty, there is no shortage of people with lofty ideals. These people want to revitalize the Han Dynasty and become the heroes of the Han Dynasty's rejuvenation. Success, are you willing to hand over the power in your hands?

Putting this kind of thing on Lu Bu, Lu Bu would definitely not agree to it. The power in his hands is not easy to come by, and how much suffering he has experienced in the middle, how can he affect himself because of the royal family.

Besides, even if you hand over the power in your hands, how much prestige can be improved, and what benefits will it have in the future.

It is not uncommon in history for a cunning rabbit to die and run the dog. After the matter of the king is settled, he may end up dead. Lu Bu will never agree to such a situation.

Putting your own destiny in the hands of others is the most stupid thing to do.

Loyal minister?Is it really that important in Lu Bu's eyes? Besides, in the eyes of many princes, Lu Bu is a traitor of the Han Dynasty. Even when Lu Bu occupied Xuzhou, how many princes used this reputation to suppress Lu Bu.

If it weren't for Lu Bu's tough enough means to stand out in the face of the provocations of the princes, Lu Bu would have faced more dangers.

The struggle between princes is inherently full of dangers, and if there is no greater action in such a struggle, the final end can only be destroyed.

The competition between princes is so cruel.

Entering Changyi City, feeling the hustle and bustle of Changyi City, Lu Bu nodded in satisfaction. When he led the army into Changyi, there was no such situation. This also has a lot to do with the situation that Yanzhou faced at the beginning. of.

Yanzhou Shepherd Liu Dai died while suppressing the fleeing Qingzhou Yellow Turbans. Cao Cao took over Yanzhou. Before his butt was hot, he ushered in the army of Lu Bu and Yuan Shu. The two armies made Cao Cao pay a heavy price. Yanzhou, which had not been acquired for a long time, was directly breached, and it is still in the land of Jingzhou.

Under such circumstances, what kind of movement will happen in the various cities of Yanzhou is also expected.

Under the war, not to mention ordinary people, even aristocratic families dare not neglect in the slightest. If the city changes its owner, if they fail to make a timely choice, it is very likely that the family's strength will be seriously damaged in the end. .

When Lu Bu ruled Yanzhou, although he did not come to Yanzhou directly, he just handed over the management of Yanzhou to Chen Gong, and Chen Gong represented Lu Bu.

If you fight against Chen Gong, you are standing on the opposite side of Lu Bu. Therefore, although some families in Yanzhou have some struggles in the dark, on the bright side, they still have feelings for the state pastoral mansion that Chen Gong is in charge of. More respectful.

Superficial work must sometimes be perfected.

Not only the noble families in Yanzhou, but also the families in Xuzhou.

Chapter 633 Branding

Lu Bu has gradually figured out the rules here. If he wants to get more support, he needs to make himself stronger. In the process of fighting with other princes, he must occupy more advantages in order to get more many.

If not, just relying on righteousness is far from enough.

Among the vassals, I don’t know how many people are more famous than Lu Bu, but when they actually govern the country, although they get a lot of benefits by relying on these fame, they really want to get some of the family’s full strength in critical moments. Help is not an easy thing.

The battle between the princes is full of dangers, and the shrewd family will transfer the important power in the family, that is, to take refuge in different monarchs. In this way, as long as one person can succeed, the continuation of the family Work, even if it's done.

When the princes face such situations, they are more silent. Families with strong foundations have such power. biased.

The talents of these families represent the optimism of the powerful families towards the princes, which is a very good thing in itself for the princes.

Nowadays, Lu Bu has emerged among the princes, but those families that are truly powerful in background have not made other moves at this time, and they are still in a wait-and-see state.

For a powerful family, a monarch like Lu Bu is not a suitable candidate, because Lu Bu was born as a general, and he doesn't know much about the aristocratic family, and such princes are often affected by emotions when doing things. Impact.

The competition among aristocratic families is fierce in terms of means, but gentle on the surface. In their view, this kind of competition is elegant.

If the appearance of a powerful vassal affects the progress of this type of competition, it will make the aristocratic family feel uncomfortable.

It is often the princes who adapt to the aristocratic families, not the powerful families who are influenced by the princes. In this matter, the aristocratic families can still weigh it clearly.

However, in the face of the crisis, Lu Bu's methods have shocked some families a lot. From Lu Bu's body, what they feel is the edge. Even some powerful princes, when dealing with Lu Bu, I am afraid that they will Dare not have the slightest negligence.

When Lu Bu has made greater achievements in Xuzhou and Yanzhou, his influence among the princes will be further improved, so that more princes will not dare to underestimate him when facing him.

Just based on the current achievements, Lu Bu has indeed achieved a certain degree of success. Such success is still not enough in the eyes of a family with a strong background.

However, Lu Bu didn't have any more worries in this regard. As the confrontation between the princes became more intense, the benefits he could gain from the war would also increase.

When the generals in the army saw Lu Bu, their expressions showed excitement. Many generals among them followed Lu Bu at the beginning, and they were even more delighted to see that Lu Bu could reach the current position.

Who said that generals can't do more among the princes, and now Lu Bu is gradually changing this situation with powerful means.

After Lv Bu rises among the princes, the generals who followed Lv Bu at first will receive more attention, which is inevitable.

When appointing generals, no matter what commander they are, they will definitely give priority to people they know well.

Following Lu Bu, these generals feel confidence and pride. No matter how powerful the princes they face are, when they encounter Wenhou on the battlefield, they will inevitably bear the burden of failure. come the price.

Lu Bu in the war is an invincible existence. Any prince who dares to provoke these will fail.

The victory in the war brought the lieutenant soldiers more respect for Lu Bu. They believed that Lu Bu could lead the lieutenant soldiers to victory.

In the State Shepherd's Mansion, Lu Bu sat in the head seat without hesitation.

It is good that Chen Gong is in charge of Yanzhou now, anyone with a discerning eye will know that it is Wen Hou Lu Bu who secretly controls Yanzhou.

Yanzhou Mu Chen Gong is the state shepherd recommended by Lu Bu. At this point, Chen Gong has already become Lu Bu's faction.

Such a brand will not dissipate easily.

And this kind of brand is what many civil officials want to get. What a prominent status to be a shepherd of a state. Becoming a state shepherd is something that many officials dream of.

The state shepherd, the shepherd guard side, has more weight than the previous governor.

Especially the state pastor, who has real power in his hands, is absolutely detached in power, because the state pastor not only has the power to manage the army, but also has the power to be in charge of political affairs.

Facing the temptation of such power, not many officials can remain calm.

Chen Gong was able to be directly promoted to Yanzhou Shepherd from his insignificant reputation, thanks to Lu Bu's credit. No matter how much infamy Chen Gong secretly endured after becoming Yanzhou Shepherd, Chen Gong's position is what more people yearn for.

If he can get such a heavy use after taking refuge in Lu Bu, even if he suffers some infamy, it will be completely worth it in the eyes of some officials.

In the hands of Yanzhou Mu, Chen Gong has no military power, but he has absolute say in Yanzhou official circles. In some matters, even Zhang Liao, the commander in chief of the army, has to be polite when facing Chen Gong. of.

The real power is in your hands, and there is no greater temptation than this.

Compared with specific official positions, the insults of some literati are nothing.

After entering the officialdom, how many literati want to make a difference, but they don't have the corresponding means.

It is not easy to stand out under the rule of the princes and become an important official of the Mushou side, because the princes are often cautious when appointing talents, and the families behind these literati can indeed have a certain influence force.

The influence brought by the family will allow the literati of the family to occupy a certain advantage in the early stage, but when the strength of the princes becomes stronger, the influence of such a family will gradually decrease. It is also inevitable.

Powerful princes, in some respects, will not be affected by families with strong backgrounds.

Chapter 634 Confidence in Chen Gong

In the early stage of development, the princes need the support of the noble family, but when the background of the princes becomes stronger, the help brought by the noble family will gradually weaken. At that time, there will be more families under the rule of the princes. This is also inevitable.

If you can't gain an advantage in the process of competing with other families, you are likely to face a disaster for the family.

When the family develops, there are many challenges that need to be endured. If you fail to succeed in the face of challenges again and again, you can imagine the serious consequences.

At present, there are many families under Lu Bu's rule. Although after Lu Bu occupied the land of Yanzhou and Xuzhou, there are many families who are not optimistic about Lu Bu and choose to stay away. Such families are, after all, a minority.

The development of the family is not easy. If you leave rashly without a good way, you will only have the possibility of gradually declining the strength of the family and losing the capital to fight against other families.

Staying in the city where the family is located will be of greater help to the development of the family.

Lv Bu is a powerful existence among the princes, but in the process of Lv Bu's development, the support from the family is indispensable. If there is no support from the family to provide talents, only relying on Lv Bu alone or the generals in the army, he can Let the rule get better development?

Besides, the generals in the army, those who have enough means to govern the country, are a minority after all, and there are more generals, who are good at charging the battlefield.

Glancing at the civil servants and generals in the hall, Lu Bu nodded secretly. The current development of Yanzhou has a lot to do with the people present.

After occupying Yanzhou, in addition to controlling the military power in Yanzhou, Lu Bu handed over all the political affairs to Chen Gong. It is rare to put such a hand in the hands of other princes. After all, Chen Gong had just joined Lu Bu.

Appointing Chen Gong as the shepherd of Yanzhou may seem hasty to some people, but Lu Bu has enough confidence in Chen Gong. Chen Gong is also a famous person in history. If such a person can't even govern the land of Yanzhou If it is good, how can we leave a more resounding reputation in history.

Facts have proved how correct Lu Bu's original choice was. Chen Gong has made great contributions to the development of Yanzhou, and such contributions cannot be erased.

Moreover, Chen Gong is a smart person, he doesn't care much about the affairs of the army, and if he encounters something related to the army, he will discuss it with Zhang Liao.

When you cooperate with smart people, you can often save a lot of trouble.

As long as the military power is firmly in his hands, even if Chen Gong wants to do other things, it will be difficult. Besides, behind Zhang Liao, there is Xuzhou ruled by Lu Bu.

It was the Xuzhou army that shined on the Yanzhou battlefield in the past. When the Xuzhou army entered the land of Yanzhou, what kind of turmoil would it cause in Yanzhou? Chen Gong also needed to consider the things inside.

That day, Chen Gong took refuge in Lv Bu, and he did not regret it. Chen Gong did not have the slightest affection for Cao Cao. The reason why he was under Cao Cao's command was to make Cao Cao pay the corresponding price one day.

The appearance of Lu Bu made Chen Gong find a suitable target, and it was very necessary to help Lu Bu drive Cao Cao out of Yanzhou.

Chen Gong will not regret such a choice. Facts have proved that when Lu Bu ruled Yanzhou, his contribution to Yanzhou is obvious to all. Even if Yanzhou fell into the hands of Cao Cao, what would happen to Yanzhou today?

Are there more businessmen willing to come to Yanzhou to do business?

Just the materials, money and food consumed by the lieutenant soldiers may cause Cao Cao a headache, let alone equip the lieutenant soldiers with excellent weapons and armor.
