Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Great Ambition Ends

The army marched forward again, Han Yi walked side by side with Wen Chou and Gao Lan, talking about the warriors and heroes of Anping and Qinghe, and asked the two about the deeds of Yan Liang and Zhang Jaw in their mouths. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yan Liang was originally from the Langya clan in Qingzhou, and because he moved to Julu with his father when he was a child, he was also a Julu person. Yan Liang has been both civil and military since he was a child, and the name of brave martial arts is heard in all states and counties. After the Yellow Turban Thieves rebelled, he changed from civilian to military positions, and followed Julu Taishou Guo Dian to quell the chaos. In the past year, he has made many great contributions, and was later promoted to the post of military commander because of his merits. When Yan Liang returned to Langya Province in Qingzhou a few years ago, he passed by Qinghe, so he had a deep friendship with Wen Chou.

Zhang Jaw is a Zheng person from Hejian, who has been in the army for generations, and is slightly the same as Che Jing's family, but his family background is better, and he has a prestige among the county soldiers. At the beginning of this year, at the age of seventeen, he was recruited into the army and became a general in the county soldiers of Hejian County. Because of his bravery in the battle against the Yellow Turban, he became famous in the county at a young age, and was promoted to a military position because of his merits.

Han Yi sighed secretly, he also started with a crusade against the Yellow Turban Moth thief, and he was either a military Sima or a military candidate; Only alone is still the temporary assistant army Sima, and the position of the left thief Cao Shi is still self-indulgent. Without the corresponding family background, it is really not easy to get promoted. really responded to the old saying, it is difficult to produce a noble son from a poor family.

The children of the family have been enlightened by good teachers since they were young, and when they grow up, they have famous teachers and professors, and when they become adults, they have relatives and friends who have made friends in the family to help them, and they are like arrows when they are promoted. The children of the poor family have been suffering for food since childhood, and when they grow up, they have suffered for apprenticeship and study, and when they become adults, they have no relatives and have nothing to rely on. If there is no noble person to help, you can only be a fighting official in your life, which is a great achievement in life.

Although he has eliminated the 200,000 Yellow Turban Moth thieves in Runan and Chen State, except for some more prestige, there is no major change in his identity and status. If we want our descendants to have a good future for development, it is indispensable to forge ahead in this world.

Han Yi couldn't help but have some vague understanding of some of Zhu Yan's legendary practices. If it weren't for this, how could he, a son of a poor family, be able to become a high-ranking official of more than 2,000 stones, and now he is a villager who enjoys thousands of food estates. At the same time, although Liu Bei's family background is declining, he still talks about his ancestors from time to time, and he also has a sense of sympathy.

After Han Yi figured it out, he laughed and galloped away against the cold wind. In the cold wind, he secretly made up his mind, and set up a lifelong ambition to fight for it in the future. "Although the Han family is declining, with my Han Mingyuan to help it, it will definitely be able to radiate new vitality. At the same time, under my rule, I will make the old man dependent and the lonely to be fed. Everyone in the world has clothes to wear, food to eat, books to read, and a house to live in. It is not based on family background to raise talents, but to act on meritocracy, so that the poor families in the world also have the right to be officials......"

Gao Ran and Wen Chou rode their horses to chase after them, and Wen Chou asked from afar: "Han Zuojunhou, what are you laughing at?" ”

Han Yi smiled: "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about how to make a poor kid like you, like Yan Liang, have the opportunity to be a general of the first army." ”

Wen Chouhan smiled and said: "Han Zuojun, don't laugh at me, I'm just a pariah in the countryside of Lingxian County, after seeing Brother Yan Liang, I can help him a little bit, how can I have the idea of being a general." ”

Han Yi said with a smile: "There is nothing difficult in the world, I am only afraid of people with hearts." I'm just the son of Zhaoling District, and I have been someone else's son-in-law, not even more lowly than you, but I'm not a general of thousands of people now. In the future, if I become a great official, I will definitely promote a poor son like you to be an official and a general. When you become a talent in the future, you can also appoint other poor children to be officials. In this way, there will inevitably be many people in the world who are poor people who are officials, and a common covenant will be formed in the future, so they will not be afraid that there will be no possibility of being officials in the world. ”

Wen Chou asked Han Yi with some disbelief how to do it, and Han Yi roughly explained what he had just thought about and the ideology of governing the government in the future. Although the ideas are rough and it is difficult to achieve things out of thin air, they are like thunder to Wen Chou, and his eyes can't help but show the look of yearning. There is no one in the world who does not want to be able to achieve something for himself, but being an official and a great official in the world is the best proof of personal achievement.

Wen Chou is just from a simple peasant family, although he is brave and outstanding, it is a slim thing to want to be an official. Fortunately, he once got acquainted with Yan Liang, a celebrity of Julu, and became very good friends with him. Wen Chou is not indifferent to the possibility of becoming an official and a general. In the future, he can get the help of Yan Liang and be promoted to the captain of a county, which is his highest ambition. This time I went to Jiumen, and I also planned to go to Yan Liang with meritorious service.

I don't want to meet this Han Zuojun Sima halfway, he has such great ambitions, and he wants to make it possible for the children of poor families in the world to be officials. This kind of person is either a madman, or a sage who really has great ambitions. And this madman and sage is also from a pariah background, and he is very fond of himself.

Wen Chou's mind kept turning, whether to help Brother Yan Liang according to the original plan, ask for an official position from Brother Yan Liang, or turn to help this nonsense Han Zuojun Sima. Wen Chou thought about it again and again, after all, this matter is related to his future fame and future, so he decided to take another look.

Han Yi turned to Gao Ran and said, "Junyue, you like to find people and challenge, and you must have met a lot of warriors. Our army is going to Jiumen, there may be a lot of fierce battles, I don't know if you know what other warriors in Anping County can help our army fight? ”

Gao Ran scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "Zuojun Sima, a certain person has always been disrespectful, and most of the people he challenged have offended a lot, I am afraid that no one will listen to a certain word." Yes, there are a pair of Lu brothers in Xiabo County ahead, who are brave and skilled in bows and horses. The relationship with them is quite average, and I haven't offended too much, but I don't know if they will come. ”

Han Yi said with a smile: "As long as you go to ask for it, you can do your best, and it doesn't matter if you come or not." ”

Saying that, let Gao Ran take a step forward with twenty gold, go to visit the Lu brothers, and introduce Wen Chou to Sun Jian of the rear army. Sun Jian was amazed when he saw Wen Chouxiongqi's appearance, and secretly squeezed his eyebrows at Han Yi, suggesting that Han Yi would be a fierce general.

Han Yi smiled bitterly and shook his head secretly, although Wen Chou was honest, he was not a stupid person. Obviously, there is a Julu Army Sima Yanliang who has been a close friend for many years, how could he switch to his own command.

The army marched to camp outside Xiabo County, and Han Yi and Sun Jian went to the county to visit the county magistrate, showed Zhu Yan's order to the town thief Zhonglang General, and asked the county magistrate to replenish the food for the army. As soon as he returned to the camp, he saw that Gao Ran had brought two warriors in their early twenties to meet him.

The two warrior brothers called Lu Kuang, and the younger brother called Lu Xiang, both of them were very brave, and their martial arts were only slightly weaker than Gao Ran in Anping. Because he saw Han Yi asking Gao Ran to pay a heavy salute to visit, he came to the camp to worship Han Yi in person. Han Yi was overjoyed and invited the two to the camp to drink and talk. Erlu was originally from a wealthy family in Xiabo, and he was unwilling to serve under Han Yi. But under Han Yi's earnest retention and heavy gifts, the two finally agreed to temporarily help Han Yi in the war. After the Battle of the Nine Gates is over, he will return to Xiabo.

Han Yi has nothing to do, anyway, he is not an official official of the court, and it is impossible to hire people from wealthy families as subordinates for a long time, and short-term employment is normal. Han Yi immediately appointed the two of them as the left and right military candidates of the Central Protector Military Department to assist him in leading the army.

Three days later, Han Yi and Sun Jian's army finally arrived outside the city of Xiaquyang in Julu County, two days earlier than the time set by Zhu Yan. Along the way, the wind and cold fatigue attrition a lot, at this time the two armies will only have 4,000 men. However, because of the collection of 500 brothers Gao Lan, Wen Chou, Lu Kuang, and Lu Xiang, there were as many as 4,500 people.

I saw that there were already countless military camps outside the city of Xiaquyang, with flags and banners, more than 50,000 people and horses neighing, and there were still many soldiers and horses coming later. Han Yi and Sun Jian set up camp under the guidance of the guide officer, and went to the main account to pay the order.

I don't want Zhu Yun to sit on the main seat at this time, but someone else on the main seat. An old man in black official uniform, who is in his fifties, is sitting upright on the main seat. Zhu Yan saw Han Yi and Sun Jian, and hurriedly told the old man, and introduced the identity of the old man to the two.

It turned out that this person was Zhang Wen, Zhang Boshen, the great priest of the court, and a native of Nanyang Sui County. Due to the arduous war in Jizhou, the princes of the DPRK and China were afraid that Zhu Yun would not be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility alone, so Zhang Wen was specially promoted to the commonplace, and the deputy general Jinwu Yuan Fanbei came to preside over the major affairs and crusade against the Changshan Yellow Turban Moth thieves. And Zhu Wei was appointed as the vanguard of the army.

After Han Yi and Sun Jian met Zhang Wen, they followed Zhu Yun to the camp of the pioneer general, Sun Jian asked: "Xixiang Hou, since our department is the vanguard, I don't know when the commander will launch an attack, so the two of us should prepare early." ”

Zhu Wei covered his beard and said lightly: "The timing of the attack, Bo Shen Gong has not officially notified the general, according to the general's thinking, at least after the elites of the states are gathered, then they will attack together." After the two of you go down, you should first go around to investigate the enemy's situation, and have a direct impression of the Changshan Yellow Turban Moth Thief. ”

After Han Yi and Sun Jian retreated, they each returned to the camp and sent effective outposts to investigate the enemy's situation. The brothers Lu Kuang and Lu Xiang in Han Yi's camp volunteered to respond to the order and came out of the crowd. Han Yi was very satisfied with the attitude of the two, and immediately ordered the two to each lead twenty people out of the camp to investigate. The other generals recuperated in the camp and recuperated from the fatigue of the multi-day march.

Three days later, the two men returned with their troops, each dead and wounded, and their faces turned pale. To put it bluntly, the thieves in Changshan are so powerful, no less than ten times more powerful than the Yellow Turban Moth thieves in Anping Kingdom a few months ago.

At this time, Huang Gai and Zu Mao in Sun Jian's camp also returned at the same time, and also said that the Changshan bandits were very powerful. Han Yi and Sun Jian then asked the four generals to tell their own sentry situations, and Sun Jian squatted on the ground to imitate General Ma Fubo to gather the valley into a mountain and arrange the terrain from Quyang to Jiumen.
