Zhang Liao grinned and whistled. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Whew! Huya came over all of a sudden, and the frightened Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei hurriedly got up and were about to get weapons, and even their subordinates were shocked and exclaimed.

Zhang Liao hurriedly stopped them, touched the tiger teeth, and said with a smile: "It's okay, this is the tiger teeth, it is the tiger that has been subdued by the subordinates, and it has been with the army for a long time, and it has no intention of hurting people." ”

Liu Guan Zhang calmed down slightly, Guan Yu couldn't help but glance at Zhang Liao in surprise, but he felt a little more sympathetic and respectful, while Zhang Fei's eyes widened and he kept looking at Huya.

Liu Bei was the first to calm down, and sat down next to Zhang Liao, his courage was not small, and he sat not far from the tiger, but he shook his head again and again and smiled bitterly: "I don't want to summon the tiger to have such a ability." ”

Zhang Fei's eyes suddenly burst with excitement, and he couldn't help but say: "Summoning the tiger, how about letting me fight with this tiger?" ”

This militant ...... Zhang Liao grinned, a little speechless.

Liu Bei couldn't look at it, and reprimanded with a dark face: "Third brother can't be like this!" "To fight with a tame animal, even if it is a tiger, Liu Bei also feels that Zhang Fei is really ashamed.

Zhang Fei scratched his head, excited but difficult to calm down, and said: "Summoning the tiger, since you can subdue the tiger, you must be not bad, how about the two of us compete?" ”

When Guan Yu on the side heard this, Danfeng's eyes suddenly opened and looked at Zhang Liao, obviously he was also very moved by the comparative test.

Zhang Liao waved his hand again and again: "Brother Guan and Brother Zhang are all enemies, and the younger brother is not as good, so he doesn't dare to show ugliness." Although he was also quite excited, he was still in danger at this time, how could he have the kung fu to compete with these two.

Zhang Fei is a straightforward person, and when he saw Zhang Liao's refusal, he was greatly displeased: "Hmph! Look at you, you're also a character, but you're so unpleasant. ”

Seeing this, Liu Bei hurriedly opened the topic, and the two talked about the affairs of the family and the country, Liu Bei thought that when the state affairs should be the first, the wife could be put aside first, and the women's concubines were even more insignificant.

Zhang Liao objected: "The major things we are trying to do are ultimately to appease the people and make the people live and work in peace and contentment, and aren't our wives and concubines also for the people?" It is the people who entrust us with life and death! How can they be so easily abandoned? It's not the husband's doing! ”

Zhang Liao is a clever change of concept, which makes Liu Bei difficult to argue for a while.

Zhang Fei glared and said, "How can a big husband act because of a small loss?" ”

Zhang Liao smiled faintly, quoted a sentence from the sages, and said: "Those who want to be clear and virtuous in the world will rule the country first; Those who want to rule their country must first gather their families; Those who want to gather their families must first cultivate their bodies. The eldest husband stands in the world, just self-cultivation and Qi family rule the country and level the world, a house is not swept, the family is difficult to protect, how to govern the country and the world! ”

Zhang Fei was stunned and couldn't speak for a while.

Immediately changed the topic, a few people talked about the rise and fall, Liu Bei sighed: "The Han family is declining, first the relatives are in power, the eunuchs are the masters, and the disaster of the party is launched, and the loyal and good are harmed, and there are murderous ministers who steal their lives, so that the lord is covered with dust, and now the morality is declining, and the people's hearts are in turmoil. Only by practicing benevolence and righteousness, maintaining loyalty and filial piety, and eliminating thieves and helping the Han can the people be desired and the world will be determined. ”

Zhang Liao disagreed, shook his head and said: "The root cause of the chaos lies in the growing strength of the family, the control of the inspection, the monopoly of the court, and the protégés all over the world, which causes the jealousy of the Son of Heaven." The two disasters of the party are not simply eunuchs killing the party, the root cause is also the struggle between the subject power and the imperial power, the Son of Heaven wants to curb the growing authority of the family, but the sad thing is that there is no one available except for the children of the family, and can only use eunuchs. The eunuchs, lacking knowledge and temperament, are despised by the world, easy to go to extremes, once in power, the poison is endless, and they are rejected by the family, so they can only appoint local relatives and friends, a vicious circle, and even the collapse of the dynasty. Therefore, the chaos of the court and government does not lie in the eunuchs, not in the relatives, not in the Son of Heaven, but in the imbalance between the power of the ministers and the imperial power. ”

When Liu Bei heard this, he was shocked inexplicably, pondered Zhang Liao's words, muttered to himself for a moment, and couldn't help bowing to Zhang Liao, and said: "Zhaohu is really insightful, so that Bei is ashamed, and his mouth is suddenly opened!" ”

Zhang Liao grinned, he said that these are to change Liu Bei's concept, if he can still divide one side in the future, then he, Cao Cao, and himself, may be the vanguard of the great reform in the late Han Dynasty, and there are two accompanying ones, which is much stronger than facing the resistance of the world's surging family alone.

He smiled and said: "This is the government, the upper level is unbalanced, and the lower level is also out of balance." The family was strong and annexed the land, and built a manor fort, but there were countless tenant farmers in the private collection, and they collected their own taxes, which grew stronger and stronger, on the contrary, the imperial court was overstretched in taxes, and was unable to help the people in disaster years, and the people lost their land and were difficult to make a living. ”

Zhang Liao said this, and drew a circle on the ground with a tree branch: "A certain circle is a metaphor, the world has a total of 10 land, a total of more than 56 million, of which there are more than 6 million of the powerful families, and there are more than 50 million ordinary people, but 6 million occupy seven and a half points of land in the world, and 50 million only have two and a half points of land, so unbalanced, a large number of people have no land to plant, no grain to eat, how can they not take risks, the Yellow Turban Rebellion, gathering millions, not the ability of Zhang Jiao, in fact, the distribution of land is unbalanced, and the people have no way to make a living." The people have no way to make a living, in addition to rebellion, there is also a way to take refuge in the family and become tenant farmers, so that the strong and strong are getting stronger, and the fewer the people who pay taxes to the court, the court has no taxes, only to increase taxes, and aggravate the difficulties of the people, it can be described as a vicious circle, the more erosion is worse, the building will be overturned, how can it be solved by a thief in addition to the Han. ”

In fact, what Zhang Liao said is not excessive, the truth may be more serious, you must know that in history, Cao Cao took full favor as the Taishou of Runan, captured more than 20 forts, and won more than 100,000 people, which shows the seriousness of Haoqiang's private acceptance of the people!

More than 100,000 people only have to pay taxes and fees for 20 large households, and even large households are exempt from taxes, so how much tax can the imperial court receive? The border passes have to fight for many years, plus natural disasters repeatedly, can the treasury be empty? Therefore, Emperor Ling's sale of official mantles was also frightened by the poverty of the treasury. And those representative officials of the family also righteously reprimanded the eunuchs for making trouble, and the Son of Heaven was deaf, but in fact they were the biggest scourge of the chaos in the world.

Liu Bei listened to what Zhang Liao said, kept pondering and nodded, his face changed inexplicably, Zhang Liao's words had too much impact on him, and the harm to the family's monopoly may not be realized until the later stage, he was running around at the bottom at this time, admiring celebrities, and he didn't realize these at all, how could he not be shocked after listening to Zhang Liao's words?

But he had to admit that Zhang Liao's words were to the point, and every word was clear.

Don't talk about Liu Bei at this time, even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei can listen attentively, Zhang Fei didn't argue this time, he was also attracted by Zhang Liao's point of view.

Their brothers traveled north and south and saw many phenomena, but they couldn't say it, and as soon as Zhang Liao said it at this time, they were like an initiation, and they couldn't help but admire it in their hearts.

Liu Bei's face changed for a long time before he breathed a long sigh of relief, and then asked eagerly, "Then how should I do it?" ”

Zhang Liao said: "Quell the trouble, break the fort, organize the people, open a department to get scholars, and recruit talents......"

The four of them talked for a long time, until late at night, and Liu Guanzhang admired Zhang Liao as a young man at this time.

And Zhang Liao saw that it was hopeless to recruit the three of them for a while, but suddenly an idea came to him, proposing that the four of them become brothers, he had a good impression of the three of them, and they were indeed people who could be friends.

Although Zhang Liao is young, his strength is still stronger than Liu Bei's, and his official position is higher than that of the three, but he has a modest attitude, talks and laughs, has extraordinary knowledge, has his own heroic bearing, and is good at setting almost, calling him brother and brother several times, and the relationship between the four is already quite close. In terms of personal force, although Zhang Liao did not compete with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, they broke their wrists, and Guan and Zhang also saw his great strength and praised him.

After Zhang Liao made this suggestion, Liu Guan and Zhang hesitated and did not object, and although the three of them are usually brothers, they actually do not have any Taoyuan ties, so they are also very excited about Zhang Liao's proposal.

The four of them are not pedantic people, even if they perform the bow ceremony, of course, in the current situation, they do not do any too cumbersome etiquette, but just order the soldiers to take wine and meat, and worship the emperor and the queen of heaven, they can be regarded as brothers.

At night, the four of them were still talking, Zhang Liao urged the three to rest with the idea that there would be a war tomorrow, and he sent troops to guard the camp outside.

At night, after Liu Guanzhang and other soldiers rested, Zhang Liao ordered Zhang Jian to lead the cavalry battalion to make a movement outside, and he suddenly led the troops to pursue, and the tens of thousands of men and horses who had already received orders quickly disappeared into the night.

When Liu Guanzhang and his soldiers woke up, they saw that the night was dark, and they didn't know for a while, their soldiers had no experience in night fighting, and they didn't dare to act rashly for a while.

waited until dawn and saw Zhang Liao's thousands of soldiers and horses returning, leaving only dozens of vehicles in the camp, as well as grain, grass, baggage and three horses.

Liu Bei was worried about Zhang Liao, and was about to ask the soldiers to investigate the traces of the march and go to look for it, but he saw a letter left by Zhang Liao: The younger brother has a heavy responsibility and has to leave in a hurry, and the grain and grass are all given to the three brothers, as well as three good horses, to apologize and forgive. The battle in Luoyang is dangerous, so be careful.

There is only one word in the inscription: Zhang.

Liu Guanzhang glanced at each other, looking at the camp full of heavy grain and grass, and couldn't help but be at a loss for a while, almost feeling that the events of yesterday and last night seemed to be a dream, but the baggage and grain and grass in front of him were clearly true.

At this time, a troop of soldiers and horses suddenly came from the north, and Liu Bei and the three thought that Zhang Liao had returned, so they couldn't help but be overjoyed and hurriedly greeted them, but they couldn't help but be disappointed when they saw that it was Biqiu Yi's soldiers and horses.

Biqiu Yi came here, heard that Liu Bei said what happened yesterday, and then looked at the baggage and grain and grass all over the ground, and couldn't help but be stunned, these baggage and grain and grass are very valuable, especially there are some guns, spears and armor in the baggage, which can make Liu Bei's net worth rise several times, and his combat power will increase.

In such a scene, even Biqiu Yi couldn't figure it out, he sent so much baggage and grain and grass for no reason, why didn't he encounter such a good thing.

After inquiring about the situation carefully, and hearing Liu Bei's description of Zhang Liao's appearance, his heart suddenly moved, with a shocked look in his eyes, and asked Zhang Liao about the details of his appearance.

Liu Bei and the three of them couldn't help but wonder when they saw his strange expression, but among Liu Guan and Zhang, Zhang Fei, who was rough, was good at painting, and he didn't need to describe it verbally, he roughly described Zhang Liao's outline and appearance in three or two clicks.

When Biqiu Yi saw the appearance of the person on the painting, he couldn't help but lose his voice and said: "Zhang Wenyuan! (To be continued.) )
