"Yide, don't worry, listen to Zilong." After all, Yu Ban is much calmer, although Zhao Yun has just come into contact, but as Su Xiu's junior disciple, his mind must not be so simple, he believes that Zhao Yun must have his reason for saying this.

"Think about it, how many soldiers do we have now? How many captives are in your hands? Our Han military system, like Mount Tai and other county governments, has a maximum of more than 5,000 people, but we now have more than 50,000 in the barracks. Half of the captives were young and strong, and with a little training, they were a force to be reckoned with. In other words, I have more than 100,000 soldiers in Taishan alone, and the imperial court can tolerate it? Even in wartime, this touched the bottom line of the imperial court.

Besides, if no one knows about these things, or if someone who knows pretends to be deaf and dumb, and really reports them to the court, I am afraid that we will not be able to escape from this crime of rebellion. Today's Taishan foundation is still shallow, and it can't withstand too much wind and waves. If the imperial court sends troops to Mount Tai, we will only be defeated. So now we have to be patient.

Dong Zhuo, as the current commander of the northern bandits, if he talks nonsense in the court, it is not a good thing for us, now give him a little benefit to plug his mouth, and wait until I Taishan is full-fledged, and then double it back, these benefits are nothing more than temporarily stored in him. ”

After some arguments, the generals in the tent nodded convincingly. This truth is really not deep, Zhao Yun's analysis is meticulous, and with Taishan's current military might, a Dong Zhuo is just a person, although he is not afraid of him, but there is really no need to make too much trouble.

"What Zilong said is reasonable, but we must not fully agree to his condition, otherwise it will damage my prestige of Mount Tai, if Dong Zhuo thinks that we are easy to bully, we will definitely intensify in the future, and no matter how good my Taishan development is, I can only make a wedding dress in vain." Yu Ban thought about it and said.

"Indeed, but the request made by Li Ru is indeed a big mouth: 30,000 yellow scarves are strong and strong, plus 200,000 stone grains and grass, he really dares to ask for it." Guan Hai also gasped after reading the letter, obediently, you must know that if there is no war, more than 50,000 people in Taishan's army will have to eat 200,000 stone grain for two or three months, even in wartime, the army can be eaten for more than a month. What's more, there are 30,000 yellow scarves, which is the biggest gain of this banditry.

"Negotiating, isn't it just the same as doing business, sitting on the ground and bargaining. Li Ru is a smart man, and he knows that now is not the time to conflict with me. Smart people are the best to talk about, but it is not easy to deal with Li Dao, Guo Yan and others. ”

"How much is the lord going to give Dong Zhuo?" Li Hu has almost never expressed his opinion since he followed Su Xiu on the expedition, he knows how many catties and taels he has, for this kind of thing, how can he talk more about this kind of decision with his ability?

"Wen Ze, you go and write a reply letter for me, saying that our army is willing to give Dong Zhuo 30,000 stones of grain and grass and 100 good horses. And according to the imperial court system, he will let them build roads and bridges in Taishan peacefully, and dare not slack off in the slightest. There is also a reminder to him to be a little secretive, don't be too greedy, I can afford to give things to Taishan, but it also depends on whether he Dong Zhuo can eat it, be careful to choke. ”

"Okay, my lord, my subordinates will go and draft a reply."

"In addition, send someone to send a letter to the military advisor to explain our situation to the military advisor, and believe that Zhicai understands what to do."

……

Now Jinan is actually in the hands of Su Xiu, although Liu Kang, the king of Jinan, did not indicate that he was attached to Mount Tai, but the military and political command has begun to move. No matter what time and place, if you can't even mobilize the army in your territory, then this territory no longer belongs to you.

In the face of the current situation, Liu Kang was mentally prepared, but the reality came too quickly, although he was a little helpless, but he could only accept it. After receiving the news that Su Xiu was about to arrive in Jinan through Le'an County, Liu Kang immediately led Zhao Xun and other important officials of Jinan State out of the city for ten miles to greet him.

Su Xiu considered that the current Jinan army was still in the early stage of returning to the center, and the military spirit was not very stable, so he did not leave the Yellow Turban Qingzhuang in Jinan, but only left the old and weak to settle here, first, to reduce the population pressure of Mount Tai, and second, to help Jinan eliminate the losses caused by Li Damu in Jinan at the beginning, and ensure the smooth progress of cultivation in the coming year.

After summoning the Taishan generals stationed in Jinan to assist in the training and admonishing them, Su Xiu did not stay in Jinan for long, leaving 10,000 foot soldiers as an assistant defense and returned to Mount Tai with the team.

At present, with the situation of Mount Tai, it is not difficult to raise troops to clear Yanzhou, but there are not too many generals in their hands, and the Wenchen who can take charge alone is even more scarce, plus more than 70,000 yellow turbans have just been surrendered, there must be considerable troops to suppress it, otherwise it is easy to rebel here, so although Taishan is strong, Su Xiu still chooses to hide and wait for the strength to stabilize before slowly trying to figure it out.

On the other hand, Dong Zhuo was also sullen after receiving Su Xiu's reply, he opened his mouth to surrender 30,000 soldiers Su Xiu did not give one, and only gave 30,000 of 200,000 grain and grass, although there are 100 good horses, but Xiliang is the most not short of war horses, and in terms of quality, Xiliang horses are slightly better than Liaodong horses, which is a matter of sending food in Dong Zhuo's opinion.

But this is not the case in Li Ru's eyes. Originally, he was asking for a sky-high price to test Su Xiu's bottom line, and since Su Xiu did not tear his face, it means that the two parties have a chance to become friends. Of course, Su Xiu's climate is gradually changing, and it is almost impossible to collect it for his own use, but if it can be a help in the future, it is not impossible, so he suggested to Dong Zhuo to go to the court as soon as possible to make contributions to Su Xiu.

After listening to Li Ru's analysis and suggestions, Dong Zhuo did not hesitate, and said that Su Xiu repeatedly broke the yellow scarf, broke the wave of talent, defeated Li Damu, and hit Zhang Jiao, and made outstanding achievements, so he asked for merit for him.

Emperor Ling saw that Lu Zhi did not deliberately delay the fighter, but had already arranged tactics, just waiting for a good opportunity to reduce the loss of the official army, so he reinstated Lu Zhiguan, and after referring to Lu Zhi and Cao Cao's arguments, he gave Su Xiuhu Ben Zhonglang General and Pingxiang Hou, still led Taishan County Guard, and rewarded 100 taels of gold and 1,000 horses of cloth.

In the military system of the Han Dynasty, the local armies were all under the command of the county commanders in non-war times, and they were uniformly dispatched by generals in wartime. During the period of Emperor Ling, most of the generals in the court were at the first level of captains, and General Huben Zhonglang could be regarded as a high-ranking official in the army, after all, the merits of Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, and Lu Zhi were only a little higher than Su Xiu's left and right Zhonglang generals.

And the title of the township marquis is not to mention, as we all know, after the beautiful bearded public relations Yun Chang descended to the Han Dynasty, he was knighted by Emperor Han Xian as the marquis of Hanshou Pavilion, and the title of the township marquis is above the pavilion marquis, and then there are county marquis, and then there are liehous, this reward is already very heavy in the period of Emperor Ling. You must know that after Liu Bei became emperor, Zhang Fei was only the Marquis of Xixiang, and Zhuge Liang was only the Marquis of Wuxiang.
