Zang Ba's bravery and Xiaolie's name are well known in Taishan County, he dared to rob the prison and kill the prefect, and more than 100 jailers who escorted the prisoners were scared to flee when he showed up. One can imagine the destructive power of this person.

The court's deterrence among the people is getting lower and lower. Not only will people look down on people who kill people and go into exile, but as long as they are not captured by the court, most of them will be left with a good name among the people.

Like Zang Ba, after successfully robbing the prison and fleeing, his reputation for bravery and filial piety spread among the counties and counties.

The appointment of officials in Yanzhou was under the control of Cao Cao. With Cao Cao in charge of internal affairs, Sun Jian could fight everywhere without any scruples, but the purpose of fighting was to stabilize the people, and it was best not to fight if possible.

The terrain of Mount Tai County is special, and the Taishan bandits are here to defend themselves against danger. Many of the bandits under their command are natives of Mount Tai, and they are very familiar with the terrain and county conditions. Governing a county is not as simple as taking down a place. subsequent governance.

There are eight counties in Yanzhou. Except for Taishan County, the other seven counties are all in the field. Only Taishan County has been unable to start. One is because of the Taishan bandits who are entrenched in it, and the other is that they really don't understand the situation in the county.

States and counties change from time to time, and mountains and rivers are not easy through the ages. Therefore, the emperor divides states and counties according to the trend of mountains and rivers. Taishan County is not as easy to govern as other counties.

Zang Ba is a native of Mount Tai. He was born in a wealthy family with a prominent reputation. Apart from his status as a bandit, he is indeed the best candidate to guard Taishan County.

All parts of Yanzhou are resuming production, and only Taishan County is still barren. Before Sun Jian attacked the Taishan bandits, Cao Cao got along with him. Zang Ba stayed as much as possible. This person was able to fight the Yellow Turban with Tao Qian. Being a thief means that he is not a madman. If he can use it well, he will undoubtedly be a fierce general.

If there is such a person guarding Mount Tai, they will know immediately if there is any change in Qingzhou and Xuzhou.

Cao Cao had a good plan, and Sun Jian also thought it was a good idea, so after he took Taishan County, he didn't shout and shout. The bandits have not been exterminated either.

Wanting to keep people doesn't mean they have to ask people to stay in a good manner. In the eyes of Jiangdong tigers, big fists are the last word. Regardless of their previous status, they must be convinced first.

The martial arts field was not far from the government office. Wu Chenghou brought Zang Ba all the way over, went to pick up a convenient weapon from the weapon rack, looked at each other and walked around twice, and the two of them had bumped into each other in a flash of cold light.

Zang Ba dared to kill the prefect, became a bandit, and led the thieves to defend himself according to the natural danger of Mount Tai. He was a violent man himself. He admired Wu Chenghou's bravery when he beat Dong Zhuo, but he was deliberately embarrassed one after another, and the clay figurine couldn't stand it. provocative.

Sun Jian is in his prime of life, and it is no problem to fight on the battlefield all day. The two gestures with Cao Cao just now can only be regarded as warm-ups. Fighting with his own people requires real skills. If Cao Mengde accidentally makes Cao Mengde angry, The backlog of government affairs in a state can really kill people.

You have to be merciful to your own people, but not to those who are not your own for the time being. Zang Ba and Zang Xuangao are very capable. If you take it lightly, you might fall into this kid's hands. He can't afford to lose face.

He wants to give this guy a badass, not let this guy give him a badass, no matter how much he says, it's useless, the truth is the truth.

There were already quite a few people in the martial arts arena, and the soldiers quickly formed a circle when they saw them competing, and the two of them were surrounded in a short time. Applause, soon a group of people started booing.

If it was normal, if they dared to make such a fuss, the words "military punishment" would be thrown at them immediately. It's just that the New Year is lively, and Sun Jian usually treats his soldiers well, so they dared to make such a fuss.

Soldiers from the entire Martial Arts Field gathered, surrounded tightly by three floors inside and three floors outside. The two people inside did not ride horses, and only held weapons for close combat. Both of them were sturdy men who had experienced many battles. The fight back and forth was evenly matched.

Zang Ba had been the bandit leader in Mount Tai for many years, and he had always suppressed others to fight him. He was caught in Changyi because he did not resist himself. If he really refused to obey, the corpses of officers and soldiers could fill the entire village.

After coming to Changyi, he was imprisoned for so many days, and was provoked by Sun Jian's words. General Zang, the leader of the Taishan bandit, held his breath in his heart. He went all out when he first came, and he must defeat Sun Jian.

The young man was young and full of vigor, but he was still a little underwhelmed. Sun Jian was steady, and the two sides went back and forth for dozens of rounds. The two sides fought evenly for nearly half an hour, and then found a loophole to pick him down.

So many soldiers watched, Zang Xuangao had done so many tricks under him, his ability was enough to convince the crowd, he had given enough opportunities to perform, and it was his turn to be beaten.

It is rare for Wu Chenghou to be so patient. When he taught his son at home, he was never so tactful. He never used the method of raising first and then lowering. If you are disobedient, beat them again until you are honest.

That is to say, Zang Ba will serve in Taishan County after he surrenders. This person's prestige in Taishan County is enough, and it is not enough to put it in the whole Yanzhou. Thousands of soldiers, if they don't perform well, they can't convince the public.

The two people were dazzled when they came and went. When Sun Jian knocked Zang Ba to the ground, the surrounding soldiers applauded thunderously. Such hearty contests are rare. field, enough to brag about in front of the other brethren for a few months after returning to the camp.

Zang Ba was sweating profusely and panting, lying on the ground with his eyes empty, he lost his initial thought that he had to win life and death after the fight, and it was worth losing even if he could have such a happy fight with someone.

A fight between generals can solve many problems. What is annoying is not the arrogance of the opponent, but the arrogance and incompetence.

Sun Jian rubbed his fists and grinned condescendingly, "Give way."

Zang Ba slowed down for a while, got up from the ground and clasped his fists and replied, "Wu Chenghou is brave, so-and-so is sincerely convinced."

"It's still early, Xuan Gao tidy up, and then follow me to see Cao Zhoumu." Sun Jian patted him on the shoulder, and asked someone to take him down to wash and change his clothes. Seeing that the soldiers around him were still booing, his expression darkened and he roared. Said, "It's all free, who wants to practice?"

As soon as these words came out, the watertight human wall around them instantly dispersed.

Wu Chenghou scolded a few words, shook his head and went back to wash and change his clothes. They were confiscated during the fight just now, and his body was covered in mud. Now it's not that he just finished the battle and has no time to tidy up. If he dared to go to the council hall like this, Eighty-nine times they will be kicked out.

At this point, the cell.

Sun Guan and the others sat on the hay mats and waited for their boss to come back. They couldn't wait for anyone, and after a while they began to sigh again.

Yin Li rested his elbows on his knees, and with his idle hands, he grabbed his hair like a chicken coop, "It's been so long, why hasn't the boss come back? Could it be that he was tricked out and killed first?"

Sun Guan raised his brows, clenched his fists and wanted to teach him again, if the bastard can't talk, don't talk, don't know if you want to make things better, the crow's mouth will know nonsense, if it comes true, he will take it Can you live?

Wu Dun quickly rushed in front of Sun Guan and knocked Yin Li out of his head. He covered his mouth and dragged him to a corner to teach him a lesson in a rough voice, "How do you talk, brat?"

God, please say a few words less quickly, or you will be blood splashed in prison if you continue.

There was a lot of commotion in the prison, Zang Ba didn't know what his little brothers were thinking, after washing and changing into clean clothes, he was tall and strong, with a general demeanor in his gestures.

In the government hall, Cao Cao just welcomed a guest from Jingzhou.

After Wang Rui, the governor of Jingzhou, was killed by Sun Jian, Liu Jingsheng, Dong Zhuo's cousin, succeeded him as the governor of Jingzhou.

Liu Jingsheng rode into Yicheng alone, applied both grace and power in Jingzhou, and quickly controlled the seven counties of Jingzhou. Now, except for Nanyang, which is in the hands of Yuan Shu, Jingzhou, which is thousands of miles away, is under the control of Liu Jingsheng.

Cao Cao was very surprised when he heard that Liu Biao's men came to Yanzhou. Jingzhou soldiers and horses lived in Xiangyang, and Liu Jingsheng had no ambitions to go anywhere. That person will also find an excuse to block the surrounding roads like Liu Yan, and then comfortably occupy the territory and become the emperor of the land.

Most of the clan members of the Han Dynasty had no rights as kings, and the government affairs of the feudal country were handled by the prime minister. Roll up their titles to the end and become white bodies.

Confining a piece of land and controlling the military and political power by oneself is something that the family members surnamed Liu dare not even dream of. Decades ago, if similar words were heard by the emperor, the crime of treason would be punished immediately, but now, You can only close one eye and pretend not to see it.

So what if you see it, the imperial court has only a few troops left, and it is not enough to defend the emperor, so how can we allocate troops to fight against rebellion.

After Liu Biao arrived in Jingzhou, he united with the local aristocrats to govern Jingzhou. Except for Nanyang County, the other seven counties belonged to him. Could it be that he cooperated with Yuan Shao to drive away Yuan Shu but failed, and now he wants to cooperate with him in Yanzhou to attack Yuan Shu?

If this is the case, then Liu Jingsheng will probably be disappointed.

Before the elder brother of the Yuan family spoke, as long as Yuan Shu didn't take the initiative to make things difficult for him, he wouldn't rush to find trouble. That guy has been narrow-minded since he was a child, and he didn't have time to intrigue with that guy.

After all, Yuan Gonglu is the younger brother of the Yuan family's elder brother. If he really made a fuss with the Yuan family's elder brother, there is a high probability that he will suffer in the end.

Cao Cao was thinking a lot, but he didn't show it on the surface. He asked someone to bring the visiting official of Jingzhou to the government hall, intending to see what this person wanted to do in Jingzhou.

Cao Zhoumu felt that his guess should be close to ten, but he didn't expect that it had nothing to do with his previous guess when someone came in to explain his purpose.

Zhuge Xuan came to Yanzhou not to convey Liu Biao's intentions, but for personal matters.

He was ordered by Liu Biao, the shepherd of Jingzhou, to go to the court of Chang'an to report the situation in Jingzhou. When he left, he learned that Zhuge Gui, his elder brother, had died of illness. The second daughter stayed in Taishan County. The orphan and widow had a difficult life, so he had to take care of one or the other.

The eldest nephew, Zhuge Jin, is only 16 years old now, and he is still a half-grown child without a crown. The family has no pillars, and his uncle can't ignore him.

Cao Cao originally thought it was a big deal, but he couldn't help but be glad that he didn't say anything just now, otherwise he would be embarrassed, "Now the banditry in Taishan County has been calmed down, and Zhuge County Prime Minister is loved by the people of Taishan. As you become adults one after another, wouldn't it be a good thing for your son to inherit his father's career?"

Zhuge's family was originally from Langya Kingdom in Xuzhou, and all the children in the clan are talented in governance. Jingzhou is far away, and he manages Yanzhou well now. Why don't you leave all your uncles and nephews behind? , if future generations can manage Mount Tai well, the spirit in heaven must be very pleased.

When Zhuge Xuan heard that Cao Zhoumu took the initiative to keep him, the joy in his eyes flashed, and he quickly got up and saluted to thank him, "Mr. Cao is willing to take him in. Xuan is very grateful."

Before he left Jingzhou, he asked Liu Jingzhou for orders. After completing the task, he went to Taishan to take care of his brother's funeral. Jingzhou is too far away from Xuzhou and Yanzhou. Since Cao Mengde served as the pastor of Yanzhou, Yanzhou has no more wars. It would be better to find an official position in Xuzhou's hometown or Yanzhou. If it really doesn't work, he will consider bringing his brother, widow, nephew and niece back to Jingzhou.

He was ordered to go to Chang'an this time, not only to report the situation in Jingzhou, but also to write a letter on behalf of Liu Jingzhou, impeaching Yizhou Mu Liu Yan for making more than a thousand rides in a public vehicle, saying that there seemed to be signs that Zixia was discussing the theory of saints in Xihe .

After the death of Confucius, facing the chaos of Confucianism, Zixia went to Xihe and other places to promote "benevolent government", which was deeply respected by the local people, so that the people thought that Confucius was not a saint, but Zixia was the real saint.

When Liu Biao impeached Liu Yan, there were signs that Zixia discussed the theory of saints in Xihe. The implication was that the people of Yizhou no longer regarded the emperor of Chang'an as the emperor, but regarded Liu Yan as the real emperor.

When Liu Yan ordered Zhang Lu to block the roads between Yizhou and the outside world, anyone with a heart would have guessed what he wanted to do, but if they guessed it, they guessed it, and no one would put the matter on the surface.

Today's imperial court has become a decoration. Even if Liu Biao impeaches Liu Yan, the imperial court has no ability to do anything to Liu Yan. Even if the ancestors are torn apart.

Zhuge Xuan didn't want to get involved so much, he just wanted to find a safe place to live as an official, if he couldn't be an official, he could just find a stable place to farm.

It is rare to have a talent who comes to your door to use, and he brought a bunch of small ones alone. How could Cao Cao let him go back to his hometown to farm? With the talents of Zhuge Gui and Zhuge Xuan brothers, the children they raise will not be too bad, even if Zhuge The few children in the family are still young, and they will all be useful when they grow up in a few years.

Didn’t it just say that Da Lang of Zhuge County Cheng’s family is already sixteen or seventeen years old, and that the eldest son of Wu Chenghou’s family can fight the enemy at the age of sixteen or seventeen. It is not unusual for Da Lang of Zhuge’s family to start learning to handle official duties at this age.

When Sun Jian brought Zang Ba over, Cao Cao was arranging with a smile on Zhuge Xuan what he would do after arriving in Taishan County, from appointing officials to spring plowing, water conservancy and city defense. The things to do have been arranged.

Those who are capable work harder, and those who take the initiative to deliver to their door need to use official duties to stumbling their feet, so as not to run away without knowing when.

Cao Cao was still worried about the appointment of officials in Taishan County, but Zhuge Xuan didn't worry about it when he came. This person's qualifications are enough to be the prefect, and Zhuge Gui's prestige in Taishan County's management, so it is not easy to cause dissatisfaction among the people when he becomes an official in Taishan County.

In this way, all problems are easily solved.

Cao Cao saw Sun Jian bringing Zang Ba over. After exchanging glances, he realized that this man had already defeated Zang Ba, so he introduced them with a more sincere smile, "Zhu Yang, this is General Zang Ba, and I am going to present General Zang Ba as a General Fenwu, guard Mount Tai together with Zhu Yang."

Zhuge Xuan: ...

He didn't dare to go directly to Taishan County, but he heard that the Taishan thieves were a group of thugs who were cruel and cunning.
