Seeing that the two leaders were captured, the thieves on the mountain rushed down the mountain angrily, Liu Bei saw this, was slightly stunned, and said to Zhou Cang with a smile: "You two are very popular with the people, let them stop quickly, I will not want your two lives."

Zhou Cang also knew that with the martial arts of Gan Ning and Wen Chou, most of the people they brought would be lost, not to mention hundreds of cavalry, so he shouted loudly: "Brothers, slow down, the two of us are fine."

Although the thieves on the mountain heard it, they still rushed to the bottom of the mountain and surrounded Liu Bei and his party.

When Zhou Cang heard this, he looked at Liu Bei inexplicably and wondered: "How do you know the words of so-and-so?"

"What's so difficult about this, I don't know who this silver-robed young general is?" Liu Bei didn't answer Zhou Cang's words, and pretended to ask about the silver-robed young man in a profound way.

"Master, I Liaohua, today my brother was caught by you, and my two brothers are unlucky, if you want to kill it, you have to listen to it." The silver-robed young general said with a huff.

"Oh, you're Liao Hua, but the word is Yuan Jian?" Liu Bei asked mysteriously.

"Do you know so-and-so?" Liao Hua blurted out. When everyone heard this, they were stunned, and the people who followed Liu Bei were shocked by Liu Bei, and the thieves felt incredible.

"Don't ask this, let me ask you two, why are you thieves in this Woniu Mountain?" Liu Bei asked with a smile.

"We were all forced by the big government to rob our land, we didn't come out to do business, let us starve to death, besides, we only robbed property and goods, and didn't hurt people's lives, so the government didn't care much about us." Zhou Cang said stunned.

"As I expected, in this way, I will provide you with food and land, and you are willing to follow me, but the land I can provide is not in the Central Plains, but in a remote location. If you will, I will have you led you, and if you don't, I will let you both go. Liu Bei said slightly.

"Can you really give us land? You don't want to let us farm but not eat like the big government does, right?" Liao Hua hurriedly answered.

"Of course, the corresponding rent still has to be collected, but the grain grown is definitely your own, and the rent of the land opened up is lower, if there is no harvest in a disaster year, I can still give you rations, but I can't be a bandit." Liu Bei roughly introduced that regarding the operation of Yizhou, Xi Zhicai Tian Feng and others already had a clear policy, and they would be able to start implementing it when they won Yizhou.

"There are still some old and weak women and children on our mountain, you don't just want us young and strong, don't you want old and weak women and children, right? If you don't want the old and weak, women and children, we won't go with you! Liao Huayou didn't believe it.

"Of course, since I want to divide the fields for you to farm, of course, I want you to drag your family and your family over together, rest assured, I won't kill an old and weak woman and child, and I will let my entourage take you there, and I will bear all the expenses on the road!" Liu Bei explained again. Yizhou has more than 50,000 acres of land, and its area is only slightly smaller than that of Yanzhou and Xuzhou, and there is no problem in running a good business to support a million people, while Yizhou's population is estimated to be only about 100,000 at this time. Therefore, if he plans to take Yizhou, he will accept a large number of displaced people to reclaim wasteland and accumulate people's power.

Hearing Liu Bei's words, the two were quite moved, who was willing to die if the people could live at that time, and who was willing to be a bandit if they had land to grow and eat. The two approached and muttered for a while, and Liao Hua came out and asked: "If this is really the case, we agree, but I will go up the mountain and tell my second brother, let him clean up and then take the old and weak women and children and young men with your people, but first of all, if there is no treatment you said, we will not let you have a good time even if we fight to the death."

"In a word, it is difficult to chase the horse, so we agreed, I will wait for you here, you go and discuss quickly, but if you agree, you three brothers will recognize me as the lord and fight for me." Liu Bei further put forward his own requirements.

"If that's the case, three people will follow you." Zhou Cang replied angrily.

It was only half an hour before I saw Zhou Cang and Liao Hua appear in the valley with nearly a thousand people. As soon as he saw such a right person, Liu Bei was slightly stunned, but he didn't say anything, and casually asked what the other leader was called, it turned out that the other person was none other than Pei Yuanshao, who was killed by Guan Yu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

Subsequently, Liu Bei summoned a team leader and instructed: "Ziqian, you and lead two teams of people to send these homeless people to Moling all the way, and provide food for them along the way, don't let them be chaotic, and tell Xianhe to let him provide rations, so that he can raise these people, arrange some things, and move these homeless people to Yizhou when we take Yizhou."

The team was leading the order to go, and then Liu Bei said to the three of Zhoucang: "I have sent someone to send you and the other homeless people to Moling, but you and the other three need to send one person to follow, don't make the homeless people mess on the road, I don't know who of the three of you will go?"

The three of them muttered for a while, and decided to send Liao Hua, who was more intelligent, to suppress the formation. Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao continued to follow Liu Bei north to Luoyang. After that, there was nothing to say all the way, but he had already arrived in Luoyang on the tenth day, and it was just the beginning of September.

After arriving in Luoyang, the group found a larger inn, and began to use the previous relationship, trying to find a way to contact Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others. And Liu Bei went to visit his former teacher Lu Zhi.

Lu Zhihe was recalled to Luoyang from his position as the Taishou of Lujiang a year ago, and Cai Yong, Ma Riyan and others were in Dongguan to study Confucian classics.

After a little inquiry, he found Lu Zhi's residence, and Liu Bei sent someone to hand over the sticker and agreed to visit the teacher the next day. In fact, Liu Bei has written to the teacher several times in recent years, asking the teacher if he can have a chance to be a leader, but due to the situation of the party, it is inconvenient for Lu Zhi to recommend Liu Bei, and Liu Bei also disagrees, he understands the chaos of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the letter to Lu Zhi is just in case.

On the second day, Liu Bei took Zhou Cang to Lu Zhi's house with gifts as soon as he took a bath and fasted, this gift is not anything else, it is the high-quality paper produced by Liu Bei's own paper mill, although the paper has been more common under Jian Yong's vigorous production in the past ten years, but the high-quality good paper and tribute paper are still relatively rare, of course, Liu Bei uses it casually.

Lu Zhi got the sticker on the first day, knowing that Liu Bei was coming, so he asked people to wait at the door early the next day, and as soon as Liu Bei arrived at the door, he directly said that Liu Bei led him in. The master and apprentice naturally sighed for a while when they met. Lu Zhi was very excited when he saw the paper brought by Liu Bei. There was no excessive asking either. Lu Zhi simply asked Liu Bei about his experience in the past eight or nine years, and Liu Bei picked out some concise and concise explanations for Lu Zhi, and then attached a sentence: "It is better to read ten thousand books than to travel ten thousand miles." This sentence made Lu Zhi stunned. Although they didn't talk about anything, half a day still passed, and Lu Zhi left Liu Bei for dinner. After that, Liu Bei got up to say goodbye, and before leaving, Lu Zhi asked Liu Bei to go with him to Cai Yong's house to attend a drinking party with him three days later, when Lu Zhi was on vacation, and chatted with his colleagues. Liu Bei agreed.

At the same time, Liu Bei also asked Tian Feng to actively contact Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong and others, and as a relative of the Han family, he was ready to meet the emperor in the name of tribute, and then consider buying officials. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to spend money to bribe eunuchs, and then bribe the emperor, and finally the emperor rewards the official position, and then secretly buys official money for the emperor, according to the greedy personality of Emperor Han Ling, there should be no problem, but the cost will be relatively large. But in this way, Liu Bei's reputation will be much better. In this way, it is not an open buying official, so that he can also intersect with a clean celebrity like Lu Zhi and Cai Yong. For these Qingliu celebrities, if they know that Liu Bei is an official, they will despise Liu Bei, but Liu Bei will need a lot of such Qingliu celebrities in the future. Therefore, Liu Bei acted more secretly.
