The earliest state of Xuzhou was in Pengcheng, that is, Liu Bang led 600,000 princes to conquer the capital of Xiang Yu in one fell swoop, but a few years ago, Cao Zong's father Cao Song fled at this time, and was attacked and killed by the subordinates of Xuzhou Thorn Shi Taoqian, and the angry Cao Zong raised the butcher's knife to kill, slaughtering 100,000 Xuzhou people, after the military disaster, all industries in Pengcheng withered, and after Lu Bu became the master, he moved the state to Xiapi City, which was relatively far away from Cao Cao's territory.

In later generations, the coastal people lived well, and now it is almost the same, with the benefit of fish and salt, and compared with the Central Plains where the four wars were fought, the war has not yet affected the hinterland of Xuzhou, compared to Boss Cao's territory, it is a lot more densely populated.

However, under the rule of General Lü Ming, the people of Xuzhou were much more difficult than the people of Yanzhou, although both millet and wheat in the fields were thriving, but in the villages and towns where Wang Hou passed, the people of Xuzhou were all with vegetables and tattered clothes.

Of course, this is not all Lu Bu's fault, but the entire social environment.

With more than 200 years of development, the family gate lord relied on the clan power to annex the land to the extreme, the land of the entire county and the entire village completely belonged to a few families, and the remaining 80 to 90 percent of the population had to depend on them to become tenant serfs, this situation was everywhere in the great Han Empire. At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, the social wealth inequality that was suppressed by the Green Forest Red Eyebrow Uprising was restored to its original state again, and the created yeoman peasant class was almost wiped out.

Looking at the entire chaotic era at the end of the Han Dynasty, the person who was the best for the people was not Cao Cao, let alone Liu Bei, but Yuan Shao, who was indecisive and the laughing stock of the world.

After Liu Bei called himself the clan, but the surname Liu of the two Han Dynasty has been rotten on the street, he himself had to sell straw shoes for a living in his early years, it is a complete cold door, in order to make up for the bottom of his background, he had to be inferior to the family in exchange for support, he is a courtesy corporal, the name of benevolence and righteousness, but how much he can pay attention to the demands of the people under his governance, you can imagine.

On the contrary, it is the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, Yuan Shao himself is also ranked as the third duke, he is top-notch in the Gongqing family, he looks down on the family gate valve whose status is lower than his own, and the name of the fourth and third princes does not need Yuan Shao to recruit extraordinarily, and the children of the family have come to vote, so Yuan Shao can clean up a large number of Tian Lianqian Mo in Hebei without any scruples, but he is still greedy and unrestrained to collect and scrape the door valve clan that harms the people.

However, it is precisely because of this reason that Yuan Shao is arrogant and can't listen to people's words, and finally his reputation was defeated by Guandu, as the so-called success is also Xiao He is also Xiao He.

As for Xuzhou at this time, the Yellow Turban Uprising did not spread too much here, and the melee in the Central Plains did not spread to the heart of Xuzhou for the time being.

Or the dilapidated Eastern Han Dynasty pipeline, bypassing the withered Pengcheng, continue to travel east along Surabaya, just when Wang Hou was looking at this unique prosperity and poverty of the late Han Dynasty with great interest, the sound of heavy footsteps on the cold road came suddenly, followed by the dust on the eastern horizon, the heavy footsteps came densely, and a few minutes later, the military horses of the brigade fiercely greeted from the horizon and stopped on the avenue.

has already walked half of Xuzhou, and the people under Lu Dada's command have belatedly appeared.

The reason why we say military horses is because this army is composed of mixed infantry and cavalry, and there are not many cavalry, about three or four hundred people, and infantry accounts for the vast majority, at least thousand. These fellows rushed into the wheat fields on both sides of the road and trampled down the crops that were about to ripen in pieces, and the peasants in the village were still busy harvesting in the fields, and when they saw the soldiers entering, they immediately fled in panic as if fleeing the plague.

In the cavalry camp, a roll of banners is rolling in the wind, in the cavalry cluster, is a middle-aged general carrying a long and narrow blade spear, these cavalry should be Lu Bu's Bingzhou iron cavalry, because they are dressed and the Central Plains cavalry is still quite different, wearing nailed leather armor, and the head is also a felt hat, the weather is not cool, but the neckline of these guys is still turned over a layer of hair, and some are even simply foreign faces.

As for those infantry, they probably inherited the Danyang soldiers under Tao Qian's command, but compared with the name, the equipment of these infantry is not so outstanding, some are wearing old leather armor, and some are simply wearing cyan cloth clothes, and they are holding more than a meter of broken halberds that look shabby, and the formation is slightly messy, but the expression and movement of Jiao'er Langdang give people a sense of toughness.

The big gun was pointed at Wang Hou's head, and the cavalry general with a slightly curly beard had a serious face, and roared like a leopard: "Zhang Wenyuan of a certain Yanmen is also!" Who are you? Why did you break into my Xuzhou boundary!"

If you want to say that you are not afraid, it is fake, thousands of people are aggressive and carrying the guy's things to block themselves, and there is a tendency to chop off their dog's head as a night pot if they don't agree, this guy surnamed Zhang has a loud voice, and his ears are buzzing, even if the little girl is a little timid, the hand holding the handle of the ring knife on his waist trembles slightly, but he takes a strong breath, Wang Hou puts his trembling hands behind his back, his chest is straight, and he shouts loudly with a calm stiffness.

"This official is after the Jinyang Wang family, and the main book of the Yellow Gate, Wang Yuan, is also! On the order of the Son of Heaven to appease Xuzhou, aren't you the people of the Han Dynasty? Why don't you kneel down when you see the angels? ”

This is the end of the bone! You have to take out the momentum of selling health care products, and shout out the momentum in front of the uncle and aunt, even if you pretend to be confident, people feel that if you don't buy it, you will lose it!

Not to mention, Wang Hou's salesman's momentum really stunned this Wen Yuanhu, and he was a little surprised, looking at Wang Hou dangling his mink tail and the dense flags behind him.

However, I have to admit that the brand and market recognition of Dahan, a health care product company, are still quite good, and after hesitating for a few seconds, this guy turned over and dismounted, and immediately knelt heavily on the ground, kowtowing and shouting.

"The last general will meet the angel of the Great Han!"

Following him, the eldest brother of the horse-riding society and the elder brother of the halberd-wielding society finally knelt on the ground in obedience, kowtowed together and said Long live Your Majesty, the little lady couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and looked at Wang Hou with a little admiration.

But seeing that Wang Hou actually took advantage of a group of people to bow their heads, and quickly hammered his chest, looking breathless, this guy rolled his eyes with disdain.

After relieving a breath of tension, Wang Hou once again recovered the successful salesman, and once again shouted deeply in the pretense of hanging.

"Get up! This official orders you to protect this official and go to Xiapi!"

…………

This way, Wang Hou is to experience the feeling of ghosts traveling, people avoiding, Zhang Wenyuan's army to the place, within a radius of ten miles, is simply not an inch of grass, far away, the common people directly run away, and when Wang Hou arrives, there is an empty ghost village left, but it is no wonder that they slip away, the military discipline of these guys is really bad, several times, the cavalry took the lead, followed those Danyang soldiers into the village to rummage for property and food, out of the city, they got a big bag of booty.

The only thing in this team that Wang Hou couldn't understand was that the cavalry leader Zhang Wenyuan was away, the team dispersed and looted, every time he didn't stop it, but listening to his subordinates shouting in the village, he couldn't help but sigh deeply, looked back at Wang Hou, and looked a little like he wanted to say something.

It stands to reason that the closer to the state and county administration should be the more prosperous, but to Xuzhou came to a diametrically opposite, the closer to Xiapi the more desolate, before the villagers were fleeing, to the vicinity of the city, it simply became a deserted village, the crops were full of barren grass, and the thatched houses collapsed I don't know how long.

Pengcheng is still quite a little far away from Xiapi, coupled with the looting of the infantry to stop and go, it took three days to walk, and then arrived at Xiapi, it is estimated that this Zhang Wenyuan sent someone to report early, the west gate of Xiapi has already been crowded, and the posture of the response is set, and the front of a white Lu character flag is majestic, and the elite infantry wearing armor and halberds are lined up at the city gate into two huge phalanxes. A large group of horseback riders were wrapped in the middle of the phalanx, and it is estimated that these are the heads and brains of Xuzhou.

Romance is not credible! Lu Bu's image of Fang Tian's halberd painting is too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, so that subconsciously, Wang Hou is looking for the famous halberd in the crowd, but in the whole team, there is no halberd at all, but there is a big iron spear hanging on the saddle at the head, a strong man with tall horses and big horses, and the muscles on his body are knotted to hold up a strong armor as if he is about to break, he even seems to have six-pack abs on his face, the muscles on his wide cheeks are full, and a few folds are thick on his head.

If it is described in Northeast dialect, there are seven unconvinced and eight unsatisfied.

The lord is like this, and so are his subordinates, whether it is the Wenchen on the left hand side of this guy or the military general on the right hand side of this guy, all of their old faces are rigid, as if someone owes them four hundred taels of silver, staring coldly at Wang Hou.

Not to mention, there are also differences between the board face, others owe four hundred taels of faces, and the one next to Lu Bu who is wearing a brick-like crown, wearing a brown and black robe, and a pig waist face is so tight that it is about to crack The face of the old guy is absolutely Wang Hou owes him eight hundred taels, and his eyes swept Wang Hou twice, which is just like the salesman who has been selling for a day in the shopping mall, he ignores it and hums.

"Xuzhou greets the angels of the Han Dynasty and invites the angels to enter the city!"

"Xuzhou assassin envoy Lu Bu, why don't you worship when you see this envoy?"

Just as time was frozen, the entire Xiapi City gate was silent, and the subordinate officials of Xuzhou were as if they had seen a dinosaur reborn, with long mouths that could swallow ostrich eggs, looking at Wang Hou in disbelief, and the eldest brother Lu Bulu in the middle, the old face full of muscles was also angry for a moment, like a pig kidneys in the Northeast!
