Pei Yuanshao was very glad that he met Pei Qing, otherwise he would never have seen Zhou Cang's compliments to him, so he thanked Pei Qing from the bottom of his heart.

However, what Pei Yuanshao didn't know was that he met Pei Qing to change his fate, because if he hadn't met Pei Qing, he wouldn't say that he had seen Zhou Cang compliment himself, and even his life would have been taken away by Zhao Yun, the general of Shu Han, one day in a few years, but Zhou Cang followed the general Guan Yu and became a brave general under Guan Yu, and he had captured the first-class fierce general Pang De in his most glorious time.

Later, under the guidance of Pei Yuanshao, Zhou Cang went to Pei Qing's room and asked Pei Qing for his guilt.

When Pei Qing was also employing people now, he did not blame Zhou Cang, but personally helped Zhou Cang, asked him to do things well in the future, and said that he would not be treated badly.

Zhou Cang heard this and immediately expressed his gratitude to Pei Qing's leniency, and at the same time felt ashamed of his previous resignation, at this time he remembered the problem in the cottage, and wanted to give Pei Qing an idea, so he said: "King, maybe you have also seen, our cottage is now in difficulty, now the most important thing is the food problem, I estimate that our existing grain and grass are not enough for three days, I think about it, if we want to get food to live, we can only go down the mountain to rob those rich people, Anyway, they are all rich and unkind, and it is for nothing to kill them, besides, let's grab a few little girls by the way, and be your serving maid ...... the king."

When Pei Qing heard this, the smile on his face suddenly faded, and he said: "Zhou Cang, although you are thinking about the cottage, but don't say it again in the future, the rich are not all rich and unkind, we need to investigate clearly and then talk about it, besides, our identity is a bandit, as long as we go to loot the rich or not, whether the other party is rich or not, it will cause the jealousy of other local tycoons, and it will also attract the encirclement and suppression of officers and soldiers, so we are not suitable to move these people at all now, In addition, there can be no robbery, even if we are thieves, we must be thieves with ideals and principles, if we use the power in our hands to bully the weak, what is the difference between us and those corrupt officials and corrupt officials who hate in our mouths? Also, remember, don't call me king in the future, this kind of title is absolutely unacceptable, because this title will bring us endless trouble. ”

"Yes, yes." Zhou Cang listened to Pei Qing's words, and hurriedly agreed to come down, but in his heart he was a little disapproving, because in his opinion, now the people in the cottage are about to starve to death, Pei Qing is still so pedantic, the result can only be a cocoon and self-destruction, anyway, no matter how hard they try, they will always be regarded as thieves, in this case, what is the point of robbing a few rich people? Anyway, if there are more lice, what is the difference between one more and one less crime?

Seeing Zhou Cang's expression, Pei Qing guessed his thoughts, but he didn't break it, but said with a smile: "But you can think about the cottage, this is still appreciated, you don't have to worry about this matter, I will leave it to Pei Yuanshao to plan, it is estimated that he will be able to think of an idea by tomorrow morning." ”

"Pei Yuanshao? Can he think of attention? Usually this cottage is planned by me, and he never comes up with ideas......" Zhou Cang almost wanted to laugh when he heard this, if he counted on Pei Yuanshao, it is estimated that he can get the future of the cottage into the fire pit.

But then Zhou Cang remembered so many changes that had happened in Pei Yuanshao today, and suddenly looked forward to it again: "Could it be that this Pei Yuanshao's changes are so big, can he really think of a good idea?" ”

Then I saw Pei Yuanshao arch his hand and said softly: "Brother, Brother Zhou, I already have a preliminary plan now, you listen to it, see if there is anything wrong, and point it out to me." I listened to my brother's words before, and I felt that if we want to let the cottage survive the crisis, we must first reduce the number of people from the inside, and think about the external strategy of other bandits, and it is really difficult for the big families to move them, so I think we should first determine a target for attacking, and at the same time emphasize good discipline to the brothers, or call it the three chapters of the law, one, do not kill innocents indiscriminately and rob the people; 2. Do not hide property privately; Third, we must not retreat from the battle and be afraid. Anyone who violates the law will be expelled from the cottage, and if the crime is serious, he will be immediately executed, so that on the one hand, the use will be reduced, the scum will be removed, and on the other hand, military discipline will be emphasized, and the foundation will be laid for our future conquests. ”

"What? I really didn't expect this Pei Yuanshao's brain to be so flexible, to be able to think of so much, even I would never have imagined it, is this also the benefit of Pei Yuanshao's strength improvement this time? If that's the case, I'm going to have to work harder, it's a great opportunity for me to grow in life. ”

Zhou Cang is now more determined to get the opportunity to improve his strength, and he can't give up no matter what.

Pei Qing nodded again and again after hearing this, he knew that Pei Yuanshao had actually only gone back and forth twice during this period, and he had thought about the problem so thoroughly, and his hard work was not in vain.

However, Pei Qing still wanted to take the test for Pei Yuanshao, so he asked, "Oh? So who do you think we should target? ”

Pei Yuanshao thought about it, and was still a little hesitant, for fear that he was wrong, but finally said: "Our Woniu Mountain is now between Chen Guo and Yingchuan, and there are three strong bandits nearby, their leaders are He Yi, Liu Pi and Huang Shao, each of which has tens of thousands of people, among which Huang Shao's strength is the weakest, but there are more than 20,000 people, even if it is a soldier who fights under his command, there are five or six thousand people, which is not at all comparable to our Woniu Mountain, and this team is not like us, We generally only rob those big families and merchants who are rich and unkind, and basically do not infringe on ordinary people and families and officials with good reputations, even if they are these people, they not only rob money and goods, but also rob people, especially colluding with some local officials, making the vicinity a miasma, and the people are full of complaints, so I think it is best for us to attack Huang Shaobu. ”

"Huang Shaobu?" Zhou Cang was shocked after hearing this, and said: "Big boss, although Huang Shao's own martial arts are not good, but Brother Yuan Shao also said just now, there are five or six thousand people under his command, and even if we pull out all our combat strength, it is only more than three thousand, and it is impossible for them to be their opponents, and these waves of bandits before are not moved for the sake of our fellow Yellow Turban Army, once we do it today, we will be the target of public criticism in the future, and we will definitely be attacked by the Yellow Turban Army's madness, at that time, I'm afraid we can't even protect ourselves. ”

"yes, so what?" Pei Qing looked at Pei Yuanshao on the side and said softly.

"This ......" Pei Yuanshao also frowned when he heard this, but after thinking about it for a while, he said with a smile: "Actually, this matter is not difficult, as long as we annex Huang Shao's team, then we have already formed a big force that is evenly matched with He Yi and Liu Pi, even if they want to deal with us, they have to weigh their strength, besides, we can use He Yi's banner when we attack Huang Shao, and then deliberately let some people go, these people will definitely go to Liu Bi after escaping, and at that time, Liu Bi and He Yi are suspicious of each other, and their hearts are not aligned, and if we take advantage of the situation, we may be able to defeat each of them. ”

"Great idea! Exactly what I thought. Pei Qing patted his thigh and praised Pei Yuanshao: "Just do it, this matter will be left to you, I believe that this time we will definitely win a big victory." ”

"It's just that our combat strength is indeed very weak, and if we all go, there is still a possibility of victory, but if we all go, who will guard our cottage?" Pei Yuanshao listened to Pei Qing's praise and was very happy in his heart, but then he thought of this problem and couldn't help but worry.

However, Pei Qing said indifferently: "Don't worry about this, I have a clever plan in my heart." ”
