Sure enough, as everyone expected.

As soon as the policy promulgated by Liu De came out, from the aristocratic families to the common people of Limin, they were all exclaimed, but the landlords were full of mourning, and the people were indeed rejoicing.

There were too many families in Liaocheng who went to find Zheng Kui under the leadership of the Wang family master, but the gate of the Zheng Mansion was closed, Zheng Kui closed the door to thank the guests, and only sent a small servant out to say to the Wang family master. I hope they will obey the arrangement of the government and don't make trouble, otherwise no one will be able to bear the anger of Liu De Leiting.

It seemed to be a tone of persuasion, but it made the head of the Wang family and others even more angry, and the head of the Wang family directly took people back to his house and said to everyone: "Many of our children are serving in Liaocheng, tell them that no one is allowed to work hard for Liu De, isn't Liu De powerful?" I don't think his decree can be carried out without our help! ”

The head of the Wang family knows that he must not fight hard with Liu De, Gu Pu's experience is still in front of him, so the blood of Gu Mansion has not dried up yet!

The head of the Wang family said viciously: "Liu De, we flattered you in a thousand ways in vain, and then in exchange for digging blood on us, you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!" ”

The head of the Wang family wrote a letter, handed it to his cronies, and whispered to him, and the servants nodded again and again and went west.

Then the head of the Wang family continued to connect in private, and Liaocheng became an undercurrent surging in an instant, full of dangers, and murderous opportunities abounded.

But the broad masses of the people will not care about the bitter weeping of the big families, they only care about the immediate benefits, and the removal of harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes will make them finally free from a year of hard work, and the whole family cannot afford to support them, so they can only sell their children and daughters to survive.

More young and strong people are eyeing Liu De's recruitment order, Liu De's treatment of the soldiers is absolutely barred, not to mention the division of military merits, one person can basically eat the whole family as a soldier. Just if they get merit and retire due to disability, they can go to the township and pavilion to serve as the pavilion chief, and even have rank, sifu, and wandering township official positions, which is enough to make them explode strong enthusiasm.

Don't look at these pitiful officials with small positions, in fact, the power is very huge, it is really the emperor of the land, and anyone should be in awe.

For a time, Rén Liú was surging, and even the joy of the New Year could not stop the enthusiasm of the people.

In the military camp outside Liaocheng, the recruitment point set up by Liu Gui and Guan Yu was overcrowded, and the young men from other counties in Yanzhou also came to Liaocheng thousands of miles away, and they wanted to join Liu De's army, and many brave people were recognized by Liu Gui and others, and a list had been drawn up and ready to be handed over to Liu De for inspection at that time.

Liu De's control of the army is very strict, and even the appointment of the lowest military positions such as the chief and the chief must be personally approved, and Guan Yu and other generals only have the right to make suggestions, which is conducive to Liu De's control of the army.

Of course, in practice, Liu De generally does not reject the suggestions of Guan Yu and others, and Liu De does not have time to review them one by one, but this system is indeed to be implemented, and perhaps when the territory is expanding, he will delegate the appointment at the bottom and focus on controlling the military positions at the level of captains.

"Lord, there's news from Guo Zidong!" Dai Zong held the bamboo slip in his hands and handed it to Liu De.

"Good!"

Liu De put down the brush, opened the bamboo slip, and quickly browsed.

Now a month has passed since the New Year, the conscription is still in full swing, Liu De is also preparing to issue a recruitment order, as soon as the recruitment order is issued, the contradiction between Liu De and the family will be on the bright side, although it is not regarded as an enemy, but the antipathy to the inside is increasing day by day, Zheng Kui came to dissuade Liu De many times, but Liu De was unmoved, and the angry Zheng Kui scolded: "The vertical son does not conspire with each other, you are killing yourself!" ”

Politics! Pull a batch and hit a batch! If you really stand on the opposite side of all the families, I'm afraid Liu De will really have to sit on wax.

How could Liu De be the kind of person who is really reckless?

But the Xiàn zhì family is what Liu De must do. At that time, Cao Cao continued to promote the Han family to suppress the family, and took the road of the Legalist family, but Cao Cao's civil and military ministers were all from the Eastern Han Dynasty, that is, the family family, both Confucianism and gate valve politics, so the family family's view of the Cao family was very big, and the Cao family's usurpation of the Han was on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was a matter of class interests.

The Sima clan is the representative of the scholar clan, and the interests they represent are consistent with the interests of other families, so these clans are happy to see the Sima clan replace the Cao clan.

Another reason is that the Cao clan basically has no real power, so when Sima Yi's father and son coup d'état, no clan relatives came out to defend the royal family.

There is also the withering of the Cao family's talents, the life span of the two generations of emperors Cao Pi and Cao Rui is too short, and the age of the successor is too young, which is very easy to lead to the fall of power. Cao Rui died of illness in his thirties, and if Cao Rui lived for ten more years, then Cao's might be a different ending.

The Cao family just started to follow Cao Cao's clansmen, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xiahou brothers, Cao Xiu, and even Cao Zhen in the future are all unique generals, heroes among people, but Cao Shuang, who is in power in the end, what kind of thing! was casually scolded by Sima Yi, and he surrendered!

Politics is your life and death, but it's not a child's house, Cao Shuang is really like a guinea dog's ear!

Saying so much, the meaning expressed is very simple, Liu De also wants to follow Cao Cao's path and support the Hanmen Shu clan.

But Cao's final failure gave Liu De a wake-up call, so Liu De had to plan more for the future.

At least stabilize them first.

Therefore, Liu De persuaded Zheng Kui to let him help him appease the families, and promised that the rights of the family would remain unchanged, that is, the inspection system, and would not encroach on the family's land, as long as they normally cleared the land, paid taxes, and did not cheat, he would definitely not punish the family without any reason, and asked Zheng Gong to tell the family owners.

His reputation for Liu De is still leveraged.

Zheng Kui may feel that Liu De's tone has been relaxed, and Liu De has given the family a lot of favorable aspects, although the payment of taxes is still so disgusting, but people are under the eaves, how can they not bow their heads.

Liu De's army is in hand, if he really tears his face, they are definitely the unlucky, or in other words, even if Liu De will die, it will be this group of families who will die first!

So Zheng Kui responded to what Liu De said, went to appease everyone, and some of the timid responded and did not fight against Liu De, and more families were lurking, waiting for the day when Liu De was weakened, as long as Liu De showed his weakness, they didn't mind giving Liu De a fatal blow in the end.

And there are still a small number of families who can't wait, among them, the head of the Wang family, he has long been fed up with Liu De's tyranny, and he swore to let Liu De know how powerful he is.

Back to business...

Liu De opened the bamboo slip handed by Dai Zong, the content of which was just a few words that did not hurt or itch, and it was to encourage himself to go south to King Qin, and he did not say whether to go to crusade against Cao Thief, and Liu De understood Guo Zidong's thoughts through these words, he would not go south at all, and even he wished that he would go south.

But Liu De said that he would not give up his intention to go south, is there really only one way to go to sea? Liu De fell into deep thought.

Then Liu De asked, "What's going on in the Gao family?" Didn't Guo Zidong order the Gao family to surrender the city? ”

Dai Zongdao: "Lord Qi, according to some news learned from the mouths of some businessmen, the Gao family is mainly divided into two groups, hostile to each other, one group advocates surrendering Guo Zidong, and the other group is unwilling to give up the rights in their hands and refuses to surrender, of course, there are still some people in it who advocate surrendering to us, but it is only a few people, and it can't affect the overall situation!" ”

"Oh? Hehe, that's kind of interesting! Of course, such a good opportunity must be taken advantage of, otherwise, wouldn't it be wasted? I asked you to pick the manpower, have you picked it? Liu De said.

Dai Zong presented a silk book to Liu De and said, "It has been selected, lord, this is the list of people selected by the last general, a total of five hundred people." ”

Liu De took a look, it included the elite soldiers of various departments of the Dongyu Army, and even the soldiers of the Tiger Guard Battalion, and Liu De also saw Zhang Qiuming's name in it.

Liu De smiled: "You have wiped out all the elites in the army!" ”

"It's also about opening up the situation quickly!" Dai Zong said with a smile.

Liu De put down the bamboo slip in his hand and ordered: "Okay, since that's the case, Dai Zong listens to the order!" ”

"The last general!"

"I want you to quickly send someone to infiltrate the forces of the Guo family and the Gao family, search for all their news in detail that is beneficial to us, and secretly provoke the Gao family to rebel against Guo Zidong, and even create chaos, we must not let Guo Zidong easily take down the Gao family, he can't take down the Gao family, it is very beneficial to us!" Liu De said.

Dai Zong showed a hint of ruthlessness and bowed to Liu De: "My lord, the last general will not let you down." "This is the first task issued by the lord since he established the Gong Wei Division, and Dai Zong will complete him perfectly no matter what.

Then he hesitated, but still said: "Lord, do you still want to go south to King Qin?" ”

"That's right, cross the sea and go to Danzhou!"

"My lord, this is too dangerous! The sea is huge, a little careless..."Dai Zong wanted to persuade him, but Liu De stretched out his hand to stop him.

Liu Dedao: "You go and call Xun Junshi and Xu Junshi over, as well as General Liu, General Guan, General Yan, and General Gongsun, they are also called over, I have something to order." ”

"Yes! The end will go! Dai Zong nodded and left the study.

"What's next?"

Liu De held a brush and sketched casually on the bamboo slips.

......

Dongyu, Liufu.

"Be careful!" Shen Feng, who had been completely promoted to the chief butler of the Liu Mansion, shouted loudly.

Several subordinates whispered, and carefully carried a large box to the carriage.

Xu Hu had arrived in Dongyu a few days ago, followed by Huo Jun, who was originally stationed in Liaoyuan City, and Xu Hu also brought Liu De's order to Dongyu City.

Some generals, including Chen Shuo and Zheng Fu, were also transferred to Liaocheng.

Today is the day of departure, Shen Feng got up early and organized his subordinates to carry out the objects in the house and load them.

"Shen Feng, they are already very hard, don't rush them!" Qian then took Little Butterfly's hand and walked out, followed by Xi'er.

"Madam, you are kind-hearted, if you don't scold them, they won't work hard at all!" Shen Feng bowed his hand and bowed.

"Madam, Steward Shen, it's all loaded!" A subordinate came to pray.

Shen Feng stepped aside and waited for the Qian family to speak.

Qian smiled and nodded: "Okay, let's go!" ”

"Gotta do it!"

Shen Feng grinned and responded. turned over into the carriage and personally served as the groom of the Qian family.

"Big dog, come on!"

The little butterfly clapped her hands and called the big cangyi dog, the little butterfly is 12 years old, she was really a big girl in ancient times, after all, it is the norm to get married and have children at the age of fourteen or fifteen, so the little butterfly will be called Liu Jia in the future.

"Whoa!"

The dog's huge body slipped into the carriage and wagged its tail vigorously at Liu Jia.

Liu Jia's eyes smiled into crescents, and he hugged the dog in his arms, rubbing the dog's big head affectionately, and the dog also stuck out his long tongue, leaning on Liu Jia's chest, and the dog's eyes also laughed into crescents.

"Let's go! Drive! ”

Shen Feng roared, waved his whip, and drove the carriage.

Halfway through, there were Dongyu people constantly chasing the carriage, and Liu's prestige in Dongyu was too high. An old man let his grandson hold him and shouted to Qian in the carriage, "Madam! Childe has already occupied half of Yanzhou, will he come back? ”

Qian stopped the carriage, lifted the curtains, and smiled at the old man: "Why didn't he come back?" Here are his roots! ”

Then the carriage started, the wheels rolled, and it drifted away.

The old man was already in tears, and his grandson was worried: "Grandpa, what's wrong with you?" ”

The old man didn't speak, but just told his grandson: "In the future, you must practice arching and serve your son!" ”

"Lao Zheng, what about General Zhang, Chen Lao and Captain Xu?" Qian asked in the carriage.

Shen Feng waved his horsewhip and replied: "Madam, the lord didn't come back, General Zhang, they followed the lord's instructions and paid homage to the fallen soldiers at the Martyrs' Shrine!" Let's wait for them outside the city! ”

"Well, it should..."

Qian answered, lifted the curtains, looked at the familiar street in front of him, and suddenly his eyes were red, he was about to leave the place where he had lived for thirty years, but he was a little reluctant.

Ade has grown up, and even has the power to half of Yanzhou, grandfather, father, second uncle, Xianggong, you can look at it!

After saying that, Qian covered his mouth and couldn't cry.

Liu Jia and Xi'er were constantly comforting Qian on the side.

......

Dongyu, Martyrs' Shrine.

Xu Hu placed Gong Du's tablet next to He Dongyan, and everyone bowed for a long time, and slowly withdrew from the main hall.

Xu Hu said to Zhang Tianlang: "General Zhang, say goodbye!" So-and-so escorted the lady and they left! ”

Zhang Tianlang's body has almost recovered after recuperation, and he arched his hand to Xu Hu and said: "Please sue the lord of the lord, and he will live up to the trust of the lord." ”

"Good!" Xu Hu nodded and stepped aside.

Zhang Tianlang said to Chen Shuo: "Old Chen, you must pay attention to rest on the road!" ”

Chen Shuo stroked his gray beard and laughed, "Don't worry! The old man is in good health! ”

After that, Chen Shuo's voice was a little low, and he said, "Tianlang! ”

"Old Chen, so-and-so is here!"

"We must keep the foundation of the lord, if things don't work out, with Dongyu here, we can make a comeback!"

"Don't worry!"

Zhang Tianlang's voice was low and firm.
