Lu Su is from Dongcheng County, Donghai County, this year.He was born in a noble family. Seeing the misery of the people in recent years, he kept selling the land of his family and donating the money to his neighbors to help the poor.

As a result, his reputation spread far and wide, and he made countless connections with talented people.

The reason why Guo Jia has heard of this person's name is because all the land sold by Lu Su was bought by Mi Zhu.

He knew that Mi Ren lacked more talents, so he recommended this person to Guo Jia.

Guo Jia happily went to visit, and then met Zhou Yu who was talking and laughing with Lu Su.

Zhou Yu's father is Zhou Yi, governor of Lujiang County, and now he lives in Lujiang County in the south.Dongcheng County is very close to Lujiang River, so it is normal to have heard Lu Su's name.

As soon as the two met, they looked at each other and saw each other's intentions clearly from each other's eyes.

Everyone is under Mi Xiang's command, and there is nothing to compete with if they all try to win talents for him.They all raised smiles that made people feel like a spring breeze, and arched their hands very peacefully.

Of course, this is only on the surface.Secretly, I still hope that Lu Su can choose himself.

"What are you two talking about?" Guo Jia smiled, "Can you ask Jia to listen?"

Lu Su was generous and hospitable, and he was delighted when he heard the words: "Okay! Su has heard of Mr. Feng Xiao's reputation earlier, and seeing him today really deserves his reputation!"

The most talked about in Donghai County, Xuzhou is the Mi Ren from the Mi family.Now that Mi Ren is the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty, who in his hometown is not honored?

When he was in trouble, Huangfusong was ordered by He Jin to arrest his family. It was Zhao Yun and Guo Jia who brought the students from Confucianism Academy to stop Huangfusong.In the past two years, it has also become a good talk in the local area.

Zhou Yu politely congratulated Guo Jiayaner on his new marriage, and asked him about Mi Yan's recent situation.

Guo Jia answered one by one, and unconsciously the topic revolved around Mi Ren, which made Lu Su also interested, and unconsciously asked more.

Guo Jia was clever and thoughtful, Zhou Yu was elegant and generous, and Lu Su hit it off with the two of them.It was not enough for them to chat all day, so they invited them to stay and did not leave until the afternoon of the next day.

This was before the snow.Now I received a letter from Zhou Yu, saying that Lu Su was willing to help him.

This round, he was slightly better.

Guo Jia put the letter on the table, supported his chin with one hand, and chuckled softly.

It's all about helping the lord, so what about winning or losing?But that's all, young people's determination to win or lose.

Since Lu Su didn't want to leave his hometown, Guo Jia wouldn't force him either.He waited for Zheng Yuexue to return to the academy to start school and visit Cui Yan and Xi Ji.

These two are Xun Yu's fancy, and they are Mi Yan's juniors in relationship, so they are naturally inclined to Mi Yan.After being recruited, he quickly agreed to this matter and was willing to follow Guo Jia into Chang'an.

On the 23rd of the first lunar month, the task of recruiting people from the academy was successfully resolved.

Before leaving, Guo Jia called on the gentlemen of the academy.

In addition to Zheng Xuan, Xun Shuang, and Sima Hui, several gentlemen joined the Academy not long ago to solve the problem of lack of teachers.These gentlemen all came from the gentry who fled for refuge during the war in Yuzhou.

Lu Zhi and Mi Zhu settled these gentry properly.

Unknowingly, the entire Donghai County gentry was so prosperous that it was comparable to Yingchuan, Nanyang and other places in Yuzhou back then.Such a situation was unexpected.

Seeing Guo Jia, Sima Hui shook his head: "You, why did you take away Zheng Kangcheng's two proud disciples all at once?"

Both Cui Yan and Xi Xi were disciples of Zheng Xuan.Although they usually treat them equally, they will privately give these talented disciples individual make-up lessons, and when the teachers are enough, they will open a university.

After losing two disciples at once, Zheng Xuan was naturally in a low mood.

But thinking that it was to help Mi Yan, the anger disappeared.

Guo Jia said: "Sir, if you are willing to go out of the mountain, why should I ask others."

There is no need to say too much about military books and war strategies. What Sima Hui is most proficient in is the Qimen Dunjia, Yin Yang and Five Elements, which are rare in the world.If such a talent is willing to join the imperial court, he will definitely not remain silent.

Sima Hui, who always liked to say "yes", quickly waved his hands: "Hey, I'm old, I can't be too busy!"

Guo Jia said casually: "You are old now, but you may not be willing to go out when you are young."

Sima Hui patted him with a smile: "You, you, poor-mouthed."

He had a teacher-student friendship with Guo Jia for a period of time, and he liked this eclectic student very much: "I am just waiting for you to visit the master's school and recruit more disciples for me!"

Guo Jia raised his eyebrows: "Speaking of which, Mr. Zhuge Jin brothers under your command..."

Zheng Xuan accepted his disciples, and Mr. Shui Jing was no exception.He accepted brothers Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Liang as students at the beginning of school last year, and taught them Qimen Dunjia, Yin Yang and Five Elements.

Sima Hui didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he pointed at Guo Jia and scolded with a smile: "You fox, Kang Cheng's proud disciple took two of them away, and now you come to me for advice!"

Guo Jia's long and narrow eyes showed a sly smile: "Mr. is absurd, it's not half as good as my lord."

"What's more, Jia is also thinking about the master's future plans." He smiled shyly, "The world is in chaos, and the heroes are separated. If you want to end this chaotic world and restore peace to the people in the world, who else can do it except the master?"

Mr. Shui Jing slowly withdrew his smile and remained silent.

He has never liked to put all his eggs in one basket, and he is also proficient in the art of gaming.However, ever since Mi Yan defeated the Xiongnu with a strange plan, he found that the Big Dipper was unusually bright every night when he watched the stars. Even if the stars were shining, they could not take away its light.

——He is not an idiot, so he naturally knew that Mi Yan must have used special means to defeat the Xiongnu.

And this method is better than his Qimen Dunjia.

With such a general situation, what else is there to struggle with?

He shook his head and sighed, "Yes."

"Besides Mi Xiang, who else can end the chaos of the Han Dynasty?"

……

After bidding farewell to Sima Hui, Guo Jia followed Mi Zhu and took a group of thunderbolts to the places where Cao Cao and Lu Zhi were located.

Before that, Gongsun Zan killed Liu Yu and Tao Qian, and captured Qingzhou together with Yuan Shao.More than 15 soldiers and horses of the coalition forces of the two sides overwhelmed Cao Cao's [-] soldiers and horses.

The army went south from Jizhou and Qingzhou.

Gongsun Zan personally led [-] troops to garrison Yecheng, his subordinates Yan Gang and Tian Kai led [-] troops to garrison Baima; Wan was stationed in Huojia, and Chunyu Qiong and Gao Lan led more than ten thousand troops to station in Wuchao and guard the granary.

Previously, Cao Cao himself led [-] troops to garrison Wuyuan. After the battle, he was oppressed by the army and retreated again and again.Now back to Chenliu, Xia Houchun was ordered to garrison Yangnei with [-] troops, and Yu Jin and Xu Huang ordered [-] troops to garrison Guandu.

Had it not been for Lu Zhi personally leading troops to garrison Anyang to fight Gongsun Zan after receiving the news of the fall of Qingzhou, Cao Cao might have been defeated already.

Even if he barely supports it, Cao Cao is at the end of his strength.

In the twelfth lunar month of last year, he wrote a letter requesting Mi Yi to send troops, but it took at least a month for the army to be recruited here.During this period of time, as long as Yuan Shao launched another attack, his Yanzhou pastor would be completely finished!

His pressure is increasing day by day, and his mood is becoming more and more irritable.

At this time, someone reported to him again, and famous people in Yanzhou gathered a crowd to insult him.

The literati, headed by the famous scholar Bian Rang, gathered together and talked about Cao Cao's family background in a contemptuous tone, mocking him as the queen of the eunuch.Now that Yuan Shao's army is on the line, and Cao Cao is about to die, the governor of Yanzhou should also surrender to others!

Many people think that Mi Ren shouldn't make him the governor of Yanzhou at all. As far as this is concerned, Bian Rang ridicules that Mi Ren was born as a businessman, has a narrow vision, and naturally likes him.

Cao Cao was furious.

He ordered the soldiers under his command to lead the troops to Bian Rang's mansion and kill Bian Rang on the spot.Even if Chen Gong, the counselor under his command, tried to dissuade him again and again, he did not take back the order.

……

In February of the third year of Chuping, Yuan Shao's army arrived outside Chenliu, and Cao Cao was forced to fight.

Just one day before the start of the war, Guo Jia arrived in Chenliu.

He didn't bring many thunderbolts, which could kill more than 1000 people.However, this thing is mainly used as a deterrent. Using it at a critical moment can not only reverse morale, but also reverse the outcome.

Time was running out, so he showed Cao Cao the wonderful effect of the Thunderbolt, which made Cao Cao shout, "With this divine thunder, why worry about tomorrow!"

Guo Jia smiled and said: "Jia is here, first of all, I would like to congratulate the governor of the governor, and I will win tomorrow."

Cao Cao finally recovered a smile on his face.After thinking about it, he realized that this object must have been used by Mi Ren when he paid homage to the Huns, and he said gratefully: "When Guo Junshi returns to Chang'an, he must thank Mi Xiang for Cao Cao."

The battle started the next day, as expected by the two of them.

As if the scene of the battle with the Huns reappeared, Yuan Jun was quickly terrified by the successive explosions in the front. He didn't even dare to confirm whether there were any further explosions in the back, and fled thousands of miles.

Cao Cao led his troops to pursue the victory, and beheaded Yuan Jun by three thousand ranks, killing Yuan Shao to the bum!

Poor Yuan Shao, he didn't take it seriously when he heard that Mi Eun had won the Huns last year, thinking it was just a lie by Mi Eun to scare them off.Faced with such a fetish in person today, I was so frightened that my liver and gallbladder were torn apart, and I dared not fight any more!

But he is the main general after all, and it is difficult to gather troops and horses in Yangwu, rectify military discipline, and prepare to fight again.

Contrary to the arrogant arrogance when he came here, Yuan Junzhong's momentum was extremely low at this time.What's more, hearing the spring thunder in the sky will show panic and tremble!

The same is true for Gongsun Zan on the other side.

After he fought with Lu Zhi, he was terrified by the thunder and fled back to Qingzhou in a hurry.Yan Gang, the general under his command, was beheaded by the Xuzhou army and suffered heavy losses.

……

It was already late February to complete this task, and it was time for Guo Jia to return to Chang'an.

When Cao Cao received the news, he was reluctant to part with him, and repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay: "Feng Xiao really won't stay for a while? As long as you stay, all the wine in my barracks will be yours!"

These days together, he really likes Guo Jia's amazing talent and unrestrained personality.If Guo Jia is willing to stay, he can really do his best to offer good wine.

Hearing this, Guo Jia was moved to tears!

Listen, listen, what a wonderful human speech!Everyone knows to use unlimited wine to keep him, but how can he be like his lord who has restricted him to drink so far!

—My lord, you have no conscience!

In fact, Guo Jia also knows that drinking too much hurts his health, and Mi Yi restricts him from drinking mainly for the sake of his health.But this does not prevent him from condemning Mi Eun infinitely in his heart at this moment!

——If he doesn’t need five jars of wine, no, ten jars of wine, rice wine and plum wine to heal his wounds after returning home, he will pack his bags and go to Cao Cao!

Thinking of this, tears flowed from the corners of his mouth.

Guo Jia was very moved, and then refused Cao Cao's request with difficulty: "No, Meng De must not say such things again. Now that I have chosen my master, I will not leave him easily!"

Seeing that he was so determined, Cao Cao also knew that he was incapable of poaching a corner from Mi Yi, so he shook his hand and said, "Since that's the case, I won't stay any longer. Go all the way, be careful with Fengxiao! When you return to Chang'an, don't worry about it." Don't ever forget me!"

Guo Jia shook his hand with emotion: "Jia will never forget, the happiness during this time!"

……

Mi Ren, who was being talked about by others, just received the news of the great victory between Cao Cao and Lu Zhi, so she didn't care more.

He knew that with Cao Cao's ability, even if Yuan Shao regained his strength and made a comeback, Cao Cao would probably be able to defeat him.The rest is just a matter of time.

He settled down and dealt with the affairs of Chang'an:

First, accept Cao Cao's memorandum presented last year, and recruit refugees who were displaced by the war in Sili to cultivate land in Luoyang.Luoyang needs to be rebuilt, but currently there is not enough money and food, just to allow these [-] refugees to farm and build;

Second, promulgate the talent order.In view of the shortage of talents in the DPRK and China, talented people are now being recruited in an eclectic manner.Regardless of the poor family of scholars, all those who are talented and crowned can be recommended, or self-recommended, to go to various states and counties, and become officials after being rated by Zhongzheng.

The two orders quickly spread throughout the states and counties.

This is actually preparing for the four prefectures of You, Ji, Qing, and Henan.These four prefectures are still under the control of Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zan, and Yuan Shu. Even if Mi Eun sends people there, they will not be able to get them back for a while.

What's more, he has no one under his command to send.

It's better to recruit talents first, and then make a decision after recovering these states.

As soon as the order is issued, the results will be received quickly.

First of all, one hundred thousand refugees quickly gathered in Luoyang.

Mi Ren ordered these refugees to form a battalion of 50 people and set up a commander; set up ten battalions as a side and set up a centurion commander; ten sides as a team and set up a thousand commander.They issued orders from top to bottom, and [-] mu of land were quickly reclaimed.

Spring plowing went smoothly.

The same is true for talent acquisition.

Officials in various states and counties recommended their relatives and friends one after another, and asked Zhongzheng to rate and screen them.It doesn't matter if you choose the best one or not.

The same is true of the officials in the court. They each presented their memorials to recommend the virtuous, and for a while ushered in the grand occasion of being crowned by the gentry and entering the court as an official.

When Kong Rong, who was far away in Beihai, received this news, he immediately thought of his best friend who was crowned at the beginning of the year, and hurriedly wrote to Mi Ren to recommend this person.

This person is none other than Mi Heng.

Bringing Cui Yan and Xi Ji back to Chang'an, Guo Jia first settles down his wife, and can't wait to go to the Mi Mansion to ask for credit.

As soon as he saw Mi Yan, he said joyfully: "Master, Jia has already done everything that I have been told!"

"Good job," Mi Yan nodded in agreement, "I'll give you a reward later." He had already prepared wedding candy, wedding wine, cloth and other gifts for Mrs. Guo, and guaranteed that she would like them as soon as she saw them.

With Mi Yan's affirmation, Guo Jia said happily: "My lord, can I reward Jia with a few more jars of fine wine for his hard work?"

The best wine and rice wine are five jars each. It is said that the newly brewed plum sake is also good, let’s enjoy a few jars first!

This time, Mi Yan readily agreed: "If I knew you would ask for this, I would have ordered someone to send ten altars of fine wine to your house."

Guo Jia was overjoyed.

But how can a drunkard be satisfied with ten altars of wine? He tried again: "When I was in Yanzhou earlier, Governor Cao and Jia hit it off. I want Jia to thank you for your shocking thunder..."

"Give me two jars of wine and liquor."

Guo Jia said again: "Na Jia brought Cui Yan back, the matter of Xi Xi..."

Mi Yan raised her eyebrows: "Maximum two more jugs of plum wine, you will have nothing more."

Although the combination of Cui Yan and Xi Ji was only two altars of sake, which was disappointingly cheap, Guo Jia still accepted it as soon as it was good, and happily left the Mi Mansion and hurried back home.

Seeing joy from his back, Xun Yu said affectionately: "Feng Xiao must not have imagined what is waiting for him."

Mi Yan smiled: "Guo Fengxiao is used to seeing people's hearts, how could he not know? It's just that he doesn't want to guess."

Xun Yu laughed: "Aren't you afraid that he will take his burden and go to others?"

Mi Yan is very open about this: "One day he will be released like Yuan Chang, Han Sheng, and Gong Da."

He turned his head to look at Xun Yu, and said calmly, "As long as the world is pacified in the future, no matter where Feng Xiao is, he will always work for me?"

So, when I got home, I saw Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, Lu Bu, Jia Xu... all waiting in the outer hall, and my wife who was talking with Mi Xiaomei.

Guo Jia: ... careless!

He knew that the lord would never give him so much wine so generously!
