Lü Bu of the God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 371 Liangzhou Pastoral

"In Xun Shuang, he led the Xun family to meet the general. In the future, we will rely more on the general. Seeing Lv Bu coming to the front with everyone, Xun Shuang hurriedly took the Xun family to greet Lv Bu. Now that he had decided to defect to Lv Bu, the Xun family naturally had to behave better.

"Ha ha, Mr. Xun Shuang, we meet again. I, Lv Bu, am deeply honored that you can bring the children of the Xun family. Looking at Xun Shuang coming with the Xun family, Lv Bu couldn't help but remember the visit to the Xun family in those years. The matter of subduing the Xun family has finally achieved satisfactory results. Lv Bu is also very happy.

"How is my son Xun Yu?" At this time, a figure behind Xun Shuang grabbed out, and his voice trembled slightly and asked Lv Bu that this person was none other than Xun Yu's father Xun Yu. For Xun Xun Xun's news was the most important.

"Father, the child is unfilial, which worries you." At this time, a man came out from behind Lv Bu. He was young and handsome, dressed as a scribe. It was Xun Yu, Lv Bu's new military division.

When Xun Yu learned that Lv Bu was going to surprise him, he came over with Lv Bu. It was not until this time that he understood what the surprise Lv Bu was going to give him, as a sign of gratitude. When he heard his father looking for him, he couldn't help running out.

"The child has suffered from you these days, and you have lost weight." Looking at Xun Yu in front of him, he was obviously thinner than when he left home, but he also said with some emotion.

"Father, you are also old." Seeing Xun Shu, who was almost full of tears in front of him, Xun Shuang was also a little excited. Since Xun Yu came to Liangzhou, she has been worried about the affairs of the Xun family.

"Hahaha, let's talk about it in the advanced city." Looking at the scene in front of him, Lv Bu couldn't help saying. Although Xun Yu and his family must have a thousand words, this is obviously not the place to talk.

"What the lord said is, uncle, father, let's go to the city first." Hearing this, Xun Yu also hurriedly greeted the Xun family to enter the city. He must have been a literati, and he really needed to settle down all the way.

"General Zhang Liao, take General Hua Xiong to settle down." Seeing Xun Yu coming into the city with the Xun family, Lv Bu greeted Zhang Liaodao.

"It's the general." After receiving the order, Zhang Liao quickly turned to Hua Xiong and said, "General Hua Xiong, please bring your soldiers and me."

"There is General Zhang Liao." Seeing that Lv Bu dismissed everyone else and left Zhang Linger by his side, although Hua Xiong was a little strange, he couldn't say anything. He hurriedly followed Zhang Liao. Hua Xiong naturally knew that Zhang Liao's status in Lv Bu's army was extremely high, and it was a kind of preferential treatment for Zhang Liao to greet himself.

"Ling'er has worked hard all the way, but how did you find it here?" Seeing everyone leaving, Lv Bu talked to Zhang Linger, but when he opened his mouth, he did not greet, but asked Zhang Linger and Hua Xiong how they came to Heqi City. This matter is very important, because if Hua Xiong and Zhang Linger can know the location of Heqi City and know that Heqi City is Lv Bu's strength, then Wang Yunma Teng in Yongzhou and Li Wei and Guo Yan are likely to know.

"Ha ha, is Brother Lu Bu worried that others will know that you are building a city here? Don't worry, we didn't know that there was a city here, but there were only two roads we could choose from Tongguan all the way to Xiliang. One is through Chang'an Fufeng Tianshui, and then to Longxi. However, this road is a long way, and the other way may conflict with Wang Yun or Li Guo Yan. That's why I discussed with General Huaxiong whether I could bypass the border of Xianbei, so that I could have a lot of trouble. What we didn't expect was that we learned that there was a Heqi City here on the way, so we wanted to come to supply, but we didn't expect that there was a big war. General Hua Xiong said that he would catch a humble official to give you a gift, so he led the soldiers to kill him. As for the rest, you have seen it. Zhang Linger looked at Lv Bu and said, and then said the matter clearly.

"I see. It's really difficult for you this time." Although it seems very easy to hear Zhang Linger, Lv Bu knows that these things are already very difficult for a girl's family. Among other things, it is not easy to be with some men all day long. Fortunately, Zhang Linger has grown up among the yellow scarf believers since she was a child, and she doesn't have to be special. Worried.

"As long as he can help Brother Lv Bu, Linger is willing to do anything, but the people of the Xun family are very pedantic. I'm afraid it's useless for them to come here." Seeing that Lv Bu looked worried, Zhang Linger said with a delicate smile. Zhang Linger didn't like the people of the Xun family very much.

"Hahaha, what Lv Bu wants is just Xun Yu. This person has Wang Zuo's talent, which can be called contemporary Zhang Liang." The pedantic Lv Bu of the Xun family has also been seen, but this is something different from Zhang Linger's mouth. However, what Lv Bu really wants is only Xun Yu. Although others are not as good as Xun Yu, they can also do other things, which is not completely useless.

"Is Xun Yu your Zhang Liang? Since Brother Lv Bu compares himself with Liu Bang, let me be your Xiao He. How about Brother Lv Bu? After listening to Lv Bu's words, Zhang Linger blinked her eyes and suddenly said after thinking about it.

"Haha, Linger brought back the Xun family and Hua Xiong for me. Naturally, it's already my Xiao He." Hearing Zhang Linger's words, Lv Bu said with a smile.

"Na Linger now puts forward the first suggestion to Brother Lv Bu, that is, he must not reuse the people of the Xun family." Zhang Linger squeezed her lips and smiled, but then said with a very serious expression.

"Why is this?" Lv Bu's current situation is that the general team is already quite strong. It can even be said that the current general team can finally compete with the deer. What is missing is the civil servants. This time, the Xun family came to vote, which just solved Lv Bu's urgent need. How can he abandon it?

"Brother Lv Bu has already said that Xun Yu is his brother's Zhang Liang, which means that Xun Yu will definitely be in power in the future. If Brother Lv Bu reuses the rest of the Xun family, then Brother Lv Bu is not using people, but forcing the Xun family to rebel again. Once the Xun family is in power, it is inevitable that there will be no accident. Therefore, since Brother Lv Bu wants to reuse Xun Yu, he can no longer reuse the rest of the Xun family, so as to avoid excessive concentration of power. Although Zhang Linger was young, she said to Lv Bu with an old-fashioned look at this time. Although Zhang Linger's appearance was a little funny, Lv Bu had to admit that Zhang Linger's words were very correct.

"Ha ha, it seems that Linger has learned a lot over the years." Hearing Zhang Linger's reasonable words, Lv Bu couldn't help praising. However, he said with some worry: "It's just that although I have occupied Liangzhou now, I'm going to occupy Yongzhou in the future. There are so many sites, but there are no people who know how to take care of them for me. I don't use people who don't use the Xun family. It's not a way to go on like this."

"Hee hee, Brother Lv Bu, this is not difficult for me. The land in Liangzhou was painstakingly laid down by Brother Lv Bu. He has to manage it with people. Naturally, he has to use his most reassuring people. I see that these tens of thousands of soldiers under Brother Lv Bu are loyal to Brother Lv Bu. Brother Lv Bu, why don't you let them manage the place for you? In those years, my father let his disciples become all kinds of canal commanders. Only then can we guarantee the loyalty of the Yellow Turban Army. After listening to Lv Bu's worry, Zhang Linger said carelessly.

"Well, although these soldiers were born and died with me, they were loyal to me. It's okay to let them be a pavilion chief. I also planned to let some soldiers with military meritorious service or injured soldiers retire and become pavilion chief pavilion chief after retirement, but when they reach the county magistrate level, they are not competent. In order to stimulate the morale of his army, Lv Bu naturally thought of giving pensions to the soldiers who died in the war, and letting the wounded and retired soldiers with merit to be the pavilion chief, which can not only make the soldiers more loyal to themselves, but also stabilize the place, so that Lv Bu's power goes deep into the corners of Liangzhou and really control Liangzhou. However, these can't alleviate the current situation of the lack of officials in Liangzhou. Now most of the county magistrates in Liangzhou are left by Ma Teng and Han Sui in the past. These people have no loyalty to Lv Bu, and Lv Bu does not trust them, but Lv Bu can't find anyone to replace them. It's really troublesome.

"Ye, this is a problem, but it's not difficult for me. Since Brother Lv Bu's subordinates don't know how to govern the place, why doesn't Brother Lu Bu know how to govern the place to help them? Brother Lv Bu has never been a state herdsman. Isn't he also a counselor to find a military advisor? Zhang Linger tilted her head and thought for a while and suddenly said. This idea was indeed a whim, but it was cleverly conceived, which made Lv Bu understand the wonderful points as soon as he heard it.

"Hahaha, Linger, you're right. How can I forget this?" After Zhang Linger's words, Lv Bu suddenly thought of many masters he had seen on TV in his previous life. Isn't Zhang Linger's idea to let Lv Bu find a master for his subordinates? Thinking that the Qing Dynasty entered Beijing to inform the world, how can the officers and soldiers of the Qing Dynasty know how to manage the people? However, by hiring some masters, they can continue the three hundred years of the Qing Dynasty. The advantage of the master system is that their own people are the chief officials, which can ensure their loyalty to them, while the master's talent can provide the chief official with a governance strategy.

Although Lv Bu has a bad reputation among the scholars, he doesn't know how much better it is than the image of Man Qing in the hearts of the Han people. Man Qing can hold the world for 300 years with a sentence "never add no endowment" and the master's system. Can't Lv Bu be? Is it true that the Han people in the world hate Lv Bu more than that of foreigners Hate more? If the people in the world can accept the rule of foreigners, where can they not accept Lv Bu?

Thinking of this, Lv Bu suddenly felt cheerful, not only because he found a way to rule the world, but more importantly, Lv Bu had been worried about his declaration of mess. Now it seems that he can be completely relieved. The matter is not as serious as he thought. Although Lv Bu was rejected, he also had a group of The brother followed him closely and was born and died with him. Such difficult days have passed. Now Lv Bu has become the lord of a state, and the road in the future will only be wider.

"Brother Lv Bu, what's wrong with you? Linger just came up with an idea. You don't have to do this." Looking at Lv Bu thinking with an ecstatic expression, Zhang Linger said puzzledly.

"Linger, thank you. You made me think of a lot of things." Hearing Zhang Linger's words, Lv Bu came to his senses and grabbed Zhang Linger and said excitedly. He didn't seem to have the old age at all.

"General, General Hou Cheng came from Jincheng. He has important military information. Please go back to the city." Just as Lv Bu was overjoyed by Linger's idea, a horse came and saw Lv Bu bow down and said.

"General Lu Bu, you're back." When Lv Bu returned to the Heqi City, everyone was already waiting for Lv Bu. As soon as they saw Lv Bu, they stood up and saluted.

"You don't have to be polite. What the hell is going on?" Lv Bu picked up the crowd, glanced at everyone, and asked on Hou Cheng.

"General, an envoy came from Chang'an, saying that he had received the imperial edict of the emperor and promoted the general to Liangzhou herdsman. Please ask the general to accept the order from Jincheng. Hearing Lv Bu's question, Hou Cheng quickly came out of the crowd and said to Lv Bu.

"Is that so? Hahaha, what do you think of Xun Junshi? Originally, Lv Bu thought that something really happened in Liangzhou, but now he is much relieved to hear Hou Cheng's words. He smiled and asked Xun Yu, who was standing behind. In the past, Lv Bu thought about this kind of thing by himself. At most, I just ask Zhang Liao's opinion. Other generals generally don't have any good ideas, but now there is Xun Yu, a military division. In the future, everything that needs to be brainstorming can be left to him, but Lv Bu only needs to make a decision after listening to it.

"Hahaha, this matter has been calculated by the general for a long time. Why should the general ask me?" Hearing Lv Bu ask himself, Xun Yu laughed, but gave the topic to Lv Bu. Xun Yu was shocked by Lv Bu's whole strategic plan. Now Xun Yu naturally doesn't want to steal Lv Bu's limelight on such an occasion.

"Ha ha, Mr. Xun doesn't want to say it, so let me do it. Wang Yun has long wanted to do something about Li Yu and Guo Yan. Now he has patted the messenger to come and sent me off. It seems that Wang Yun can't help but have a bad nature and is going to do it. Since Wang Yun is so anxious, we also need to cooperate well. Hou Cheng, when you return to Jincheng this time, tell the messenger that the battle of Xianbei is tense, and I can't get rid of it. Let him wait for more time in Jincheng. I will end the war with Xianbei people before the beginning of next spring and go back to take the order. In addition, you ask Gao Shun to send 20,000 elite soldiers to me. If the messenger asks, you can tell him that the war on Xianbei is urgent and there is an urgent need for more troops. Lv Bu smiled, said what he thought, and said to Hou Cheng.

"General, don't worry, oh, no, please rest assured, Lord Zhou Mu. The little one will go back now, and I will definitely do the order of Lord Zhou Mu properly." Hou Chenggang called the general and immediately realized that something was wrong, so he quickly changed his words and said. It must be Lv Bu's status improved, which also means that they will also take advantage of it. Although for Lv Bu, the official position is just a false name and there is not much practical, but in the eyes of outsiders, the size of the official position is indeed worth boasting.

"Congratulations to Lord State Shepherd." Hou Cheng reminded him that the generals bowed down at the same time, obviously with the same idea as Hou Cheng.

"Hahaha, everyone, please. You are all brothers who live and die together. Today, I will be promoted to state herdsman, and everyone will be rewarded." Lv Bu saw what everyone meant, nodded with a smile, and said to everyone.

"Thank you, Lord Shepherd." Hearing this, the generals hurriedly thanked.

"Xun Junshi, you have seen today's war. Please count your merits." Today's war defeated 30,000 Xianbei Iron Horses. Even if Heqi City has a foothold on this land, Xianbei people will not come easily in the future. Of course, it is to reward the soldiers, but the materials in Heqi City are from the Heqi Chamber of Commerce. It seems that Cai Yan will have a good discussion after the end.

"General, don't worry, my subordinates will definitely do it. However, in today's World War I, our army also suffered considerable losses. It seems that we need to have a good rest." For Lv Bu's order, Xun Yu took the order, but he immediately entered the role and talked about the loss of the war.

"What is the loss?" As soon as Lv Bu heard this, he quickly asked. Now Wang Yun is going to take action, that is to say, Lv Bu's war against Yongzhou is about to start. It's not a good thing to lose soldiers and horses at this time.

"Generally speaking, the loss of our army this time is not great. With 10,000 wolf riders, the casualties are about 1,000. The cavalry of General Wei Xu and General Dian Wei each lost more than 2,000, and the losses of soldiers and horses led by General Tai Shici and General Cheng Lian are also 2,000, with a total loss of about 8,000." Listening to Lv Bu's question, Xun Yu thought for a moment and reported the loss figure.

"Touch." Hearing this number I lost, Lv Bu slapped on the table in front of him, and the loud voice shocked everyone. They looked at Lv Bu one by one, and then the joy brought by Lv Bu's rise was swept away.

"Well, I will rush back to Jincheng immediately to recover my life." Seeing Lv Bu's unhappy face, Hou Cheng, who originally wanted to stay and get some benefits, was shocked. He quickly squeezed out a smiling face and turned around and left. At this time, as an old man beside Lv Bu, he didn't want to touch Lv Bu's mold.

"It was common for the herdsman to calm down his anger and hurt the enemy by 10,000 yuan and lose eight thousand yuan. What's more, it was a big victory for us to defeat them, and such a loss is also reasonable." Seeing that Lv Bu was angry, the generals did not dare to dissuade him, so Xun Yu had to come out and persuade him.

"Eight thousand soldiers, 8,000 soldiers have been lost in this battle. How many 8,000 soldiers are left in our army? If we have fought two or three more battles like this, won't Lv Bu have no soldiers available?" It's not that Lv Bu doesn't know the cruelty of the war, but the Battle of Yongzhou is approaching. Lv Bu really can't afford such a loss.

"Does the general think that there are too few soldiers and horses in his hands now, and there is a lack of troops to attack Yongzhou? If that's the case, I have an idea. Seeing that Lv Bu was angry. Xun Yu seemed to have guessed the key and said thoughtfully.
