The portable magic tower of the Three Kingdoms

"Others, the time is too short to see, but his ability to warn of danger is very good." Liu Tao said with emotion.

It should be something like a sixth sense, to feel that if he launched an attack at that time, he would lose instead.In fact, this is indeed the case. Those who overestimated their capabilities and relied on a large number of people to fight over, under the circumstances at the time, could be wiped out without being driven out of the forest.

One of his clever choices saved 4000 people and at the same time his own power.

"Yide..." Liu Tao felt that there should be a golden sentence in life, "The concepts of fighting and fighting are different. Even if you lose for a while, it doesn't mean anything. Only the one who wins to the end is the real winner."

"My foolish brother is taught!" Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment, then solemnly replied.

"Speaking of which...you have to find something to light a fire to dry your body. If you continue like this, you'll catch a cold." Liu Tao suddenly trembled, looked at his wet body, and ordered directly.

"But it's just rained, how do you start the fire?" Of course Zhang Fei also understands this truth, but there is no suitable fire starter at all, let alone light the fire.

"In this way, help to collect firewood, it doesn't matter if it's wet, I will naturally have a way to make a fire if I gather it together." Liu Tao thought for a while, and immediately ordered to go on.

Twenty minutes later, I looked at the bonfire in front of me and the worshiping eyes of the soldiers around me.Liu Tao couldn't help feeling emotional: "This may be the most unscrupulous use of magic..."

He directly uses the fire arrow, which has the characteristic of 'igniting' at this stage, to ignite a pile of firewood, and then use the flame to dry the water, and then he can continue to expand the bonfire, and finally everyone can enjoy the fire.

The next day, a large army passed over the horizon, saw troops on the side of the road, and quickly went on alert.

"Are you here?" Liu Tao looked at them and rode forward, "But the brother who is going to Beizhong Lang to transport food?"

"Which unit do you belong to?" The captain of the guard battalion of the grain team saw this and stepped forward to ask.

An army suddenly appeared on the main road, which made people very suspicious, but these people did not enter the state of combat readiness, and they rested here casually.

"Liu Tao, the other Sima appointed by General Bei Zhonglang, is here to assist you in guarding the food and grass. By the way, can you give me some dry food first? The dry food we brought has already been used up." Liu Tao took out the document and handed it over.

This is a military order handed over by Lu Zhi. Even so, the handwriting has melted a little due to the rain yesterday.

The school lieutenant looked at it for a long time and could barely see some content. The key seal was real, although it was a little melted.

"Did you get caught in the rain last night?" the captain asked.

"Last night I had a fight with the culprit, and I managed to beat the culprit away. I can't rest well without rest." Liu Tao pointed to the open space not far behind. There were indeed hundreds of heads. The hundreds of thieves.

"There are really thieves?" The captain immediately reacted when he saw this. After all, he was the one who sent someone to report the spying of the unknown person here.

"About four or five thousand, unfortunately I couldn't bear to fight. I shot hundreds of them and ran away. It was dark and rainy at that time, so there was no way to pursue them, so I had to give up." Liu Tao replied casually.

It did rain last night, but the question is why the officers and soldiers in front of him would fight the thieves at night, the captain couldn't figure it out.

"Forget it, the army happens to have dry rations, so let's make do with it first. When we arrive at Chaoge tonight, we'll bury the pot for cooking." The captain didn't bother to worry about so much, so he just ordered his subordinates to pass over the dry rations.

Fried noodles, yes, whole wheat fried noodles, served with a piece of pickles, whether you eat it or not is up to you.It's not fried noodles, it's just fried noodles in a pottery pot, and even the noodles probably don't have any oil or water...

Every time he sees this, Liu Tao feels that in order to change the people's livelihood in this world, he should improve the food of this era.

Fortunately, I'm used to it, eat small bites, just drink water, if possible, boil a bowl of hot water to make a paste, and the taste will be much better.

In the next few days, Liu Tao ate and drank with the army, all the way back to Guangzong.Along the way, no culprits were encountered, and the captain of the guard battalion also believed what Liu Tao said. It seemed that the culprits had indeed been defeated in advance.

After arriving in Guangzong, he had to report this matter to Lu Zhi, which gave the middle-aged man another blow.

Thousands of people defeated thousands of bandits, and cavalry was not used at that time, which is equivalent to using [-] crossbowmen to beat the bandits and flee in all directions.

If it wasn't for the fire attack, and there were hundreds of heads to testify, and he really didn't meet any thieves along the way, it would be hard for Lu Zhi to believe it.

Finally, after encouraging Liu Tao a few words, they each went back to the camp.

"Brother, the imperial court sent a Huangmen to inspect." Five days later at noon, Lu Yan hurried over and said to Liu Tao.

Chapter 137 There is a way to solve the problem

"It's quite early..." Liu Tao was stunned for a second when he heard this.According to memory, Zuo Feng, who was supposed to come around June, actually came in mid-to-late May.

"It seems that we wiped out Zhang Bao in Xiaquyang, and the imperial court came to pay attention to it after learning about it. The progress on Guangzong's side..." Lu Yan looked at Liu Tao with some confusion, "I didn't expect it to be as my brother said. It's Zuo Feng who came over."

Earlier, Liu Tao had told him about this matter, saying that this was the most important turning point in Lu Zhi's life.To be honest, Lu Yan, a filial son, was a little worried after hearing about this.It didn't happen at the time, so I didn't feel much.

Seeing that the imperial court really sent someone over, and it was actually a Huangmen named Zuo Feng.Thinking of what her elder brother said, Lu Yan was really anxious.

"Remember what I told you before?" Liu Tao asked.

"Remember." Lu Yan nodded, "Brother said that Zuo Feng is just an insignificant little Huangmen. This kind of people are considered to be at the bottom of the palace. They usually don't have much money and rarely come out of the palace. They must earn a fortune to go back. of."

"Yes, this kind of people usually want to get the chance to go out of the palace, even if they borrow money to bribe their superiors, they have to get this chance. Since they come out, there is naturally no possibility of returning empty-handed." Lu Yan nodded.

In the final analysis, it is to blackmail the frontline officials by means of inspections outside the palace.Perhaps in the eyes of many people, these officers fought on the front line, and they must have captured a lot. Naturally, they have a lot of money. If they don't blackmail some, I'm sorry for going out of the palace.

"The problem teacher was originally from a poor family, and he finally got the recognition of the gentry. Whether it is his class position or his own position, he must not show the posture of submitting to the eunuch." Liu Tao analyzed.

Regarding the issue of stance, before setting out to crusade against Chu Yan, I had already talked to Lu Yan. During this period of time, the latter was also reflecting on this conversation, and found that what Liu Tao said made some sense.In fact, there is no right or wrong, only different positions.

Lu Zhi had no choice. First of all, he was a nobleman. Secondly, in order to gain fame, he really didn't make much money.In addition, he was originally from a poor family... Let him bribe Zuo Feng, and he has no money to bribe...

If you have less money, you may even be looked down upon.Rather than being thankless, it is better to stiffen your neck and be thankless. Anyway, even if you are imprisoned, this attitude of preferring death to surrender can directly set a model for the gentry.

No, Huangfusong's crusade against the Yellow Turban in Hebei was over, giving Liu Hong a step, and also released Lu Zhi, returned to his original post, and continued to serve as Shangshu.

These days, it's not stupid to hang up and leave, and it's not to look down on everything by living in seclusion in the mountains.A few months later, the imperial court personally sent people to invite them out of the mountain, and they were promoted, and finally took office with a look of 'difficulty'.

In the recent period, Liu Tao would say this kind of statement from time to time, and Lu Yan felt that his long-term impression of officialdom seemed to be about to collapse.I want to ask Lu Zhi, but I am worried that this stubborn old father will be angry.

Discussed with Jian Yong in private, the latter was from a poor family, and couldn't analyze anything.And after a long time, Lu Yan felt that this guy began to recognize Liu Tao's point of view...

"Since according to what my brother said, even if you go to prison, you can still work in the government after the war, then... just let it go." Lu Yan also had no good idea.

"If I paid for my mentor in private, he probably has to expel me from the teacher's school?" Liu Tao thought for a while.

"If father finds out afterwards, then he will." Lu Yan thought about Lu Zhi's character, and nodded solemnly.

"However, if I don't take any action at all..." Liu Tao pointed to himself, "Of course the teacher will go to prison, how can I watch the teacher go to prison and remain indifferent? At least I have to let go of everything and go to Luoyang with him."

The battle is definitely impossible. In terms of credit, leaving one's post without authorization can be punished, and the previous credit is over.At most, among the gentry, there is a name of respecting teachers and respecting Taoism.In the end, with good luck, I will be a county captain somewhere...

Liu Tao has never wanted to join Lu Zhi, but in fact he also has concerns about this.

"Then, it's true!" When Liu Tao said that, Lu Yan also became nervous.

Unlike Liu Tao, Lu Zhi has already become a filial and honest official. Even if he is temporarily imprisoned, relying on his original status and reputation in the gentry, he can easily return to his post, and it is even possible to go further in a year or two.

But what about Liu Tao?Although he has the status of a clan member of the Han Dynasty, he is just a squire, and although he was appointed by Liu Yan as the Sima of another department, and went south to support Lu Zhi, if Lu Zhi was imprisoned, he had witnessed all this with his own eyes, so why not follow him to Luoyang?

It is about Xiaoyi, not to mention Liu Tao, even he dare not be slighted.But when Liu Tao gave up everything in front of him, what else could he gain besides gaining some fame?

At most one chance to promote filial piety, and then maybe join the army, maybe go into politics, and climb up step by step.It's fine in itself, but if the world is about to fall into chaos, time doesn't allow him to crawl slowly.
