Xu Shu nodded inexplicably and agreed to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei often said some pretended profound words, for example, on the back of the stone stele, write something incomprehensible: "From today on, in this city, all ethnic groups and people are equal to each other!" ......" and so on, Liu Bei did not explain these words, and often hid them, and they could not be seen at all unless they were carefully searched. Xu Shu and other Qingzhou officials have gradually become accustomed to Liu Bei's evil habits, so they don't care about Liu Bei's words.

But he didn't know that after him, as time went by, Liu Bei's deliberately hidden words became more and more deafening.

Silently sorting out his thoughts, Xu Shu eagerly asked: "Lord, attacking Xiqiang is definitely a big deal, such a vast land, you have to use the power of the country, 8 mobilization, plus the Han army, at least 100,000 soldiers and horses need to be dispatched, plus logistics troops, I plan to use 300,000 horses, what does the lord think?" ”

This time Xu Shu was fully responsible for attacking Xiliang, Liu Bei was obviously planning to support Xu Shu, thinking that he could command 300,000 soldiers and horses, on the prairie, open a wide formation, and sweep away all the recalcitrant ones, he couldn't help but be fascinated.

Liu Bei chuckled lightly and said: "Yuan Zhi, your train of thought is still stuck in the past war mode, 300,000 soldiers and horses, all the way to Xiqiang, how much grain and grass do you need to eat every day, and after hitting Xiqiang, that long transportation line, how many supplies do I need to transport to you, ten catties of grain are transported to your land, and the people and escorts have to eat nine catties. ”

Xu Shu looked ashamed and argued forcefully: "Lord, we sent troops from Xihe, the vast prairie area is so vast, if there are no 300,000 horses, how can we ensure the safety of the supply line?" How to ensure the subjugation of the tribes along the way? ”

Liu Bei asked rhetorically: "In your opinion, how is the combat ability of my Han soldiers alone?" ”

Xu Shu replied: "The combat ability of the 8 tribes, I don't know, I think they have been reorganized for ten years, and the combat power of the tribes should be slightly better than Xiqiang, and my Qingzhou soldiers and Izumo soldiers have sharp weapons, excellent armor, and complete combat equipment, and it should not be a problem to fight three of them." ”

"Yes, that's a good answer. In this way, there are still many Xiongnu and Xianbei remnants on the border of the West River, who are always harassing us. You might as well start now, the grass is dense in spring, the horses and grass are not worried, I will give you 30,000 horses, 30,000 herdsmen, you start from the West River first, while training, while attacking and advancing, and so on in the autumn, where you fight, you will be stationed there. And along the way, I will not give you supplies, but send out your shepherd slaves to plunder them everywhere, and when you see small tribes, you will destroy them, and rob them of their cattle, horses, and sheep, which are your food, and eat the leftovers, and let the captive women and children graze for you.

On the grassland, sparsely populated, the pastoral areas of the various tribes are far apart, the small tribes only have a few hundred warriors at most, and the large tribes are only tens of thousands, these scattered tribes are not the opponents of the big army, I want you to sweep all the way over. It is their tradition to rebel and rebel, to rebel and to rebel, to be involuntary, and it is their tradition, and I do not intend to change this tradition, so I do not need a descender, I only need a captive.

There is no surrenderer, and after your army has passed, there is no need to protect your back road, because there are no enemies in your back road, only prisoners, and these prisoners are your spoils of war, and how to distribute the spoils of war is up to you to deal with yourself.

At the beginning, the small tribes have different messages, they can't gather a sufficient number of troops to fight against you, they have to gather together to deal with you, send a tribe's messenger to gallop back and forth on the grassland, each tribe has notified that it will take at least three months, and these three months are enough for you to fight near Yongzhou. At this time, you have enough prisoners, your follow-up personnel have been reorganized, at that time, I will send you reinforcements, transport the construction materials, send supplies, and bring back your booty, and when winter comes, the Qiang soldiers should have gathered enough men and horses to prepare to fight you, and all that remains is to choose the fighters.

At that time, Cao Mengde should capture Chang'an, you should attack from the north and south, and recover my Han Yongzhou and Liangzhou, so that the tribes are stable, and the strength of my Han can be extended for at least a hundred years. By that time, Qingzhou's strength in the Central Plains was indisputable. ”

Xu Shu was excited by Liu Bei's words, and the remaining trace of reason made him ask unwillingly: "The lord means that the 30,000 herdsmen are all composed of the elite of various tribes, and they fight while grazing, right?" ”

Liu Bei nodded yes. Xu Shu asked again: "So, what kind of troops should the 30,000 main forces choose?" Who is the leading general? ”

"5,000 Izumo heavy cavalry, 5,000 ironclad infantry in Qingzhou, 5,000 light cavalry in Liaodong, 5,000 crossbowmen in Sanhan, 5,000 assault cavalry (fighting cavalry) in Jizhou, and 5,000 archers in Youzhou."

Xu Shu replied without thinking: "That's not good, the source of the army is too messy, it is difficult to command, and the run-in period is too long." I suggest that the army should be dominated by Qingzhou and Izumo, the armies of these two places often fight together and cooperate skillfully, and the armies of the rest of the states are still mainly alternates, and the strong bows of Sanhan are right, although the arrows are accurate, but they are far inferior to our iron crossbowmen, and I only need 1,000 people. General, my lord, I would like to be chosen. ”

"Okay."

Xu Shu snapped his fingers and said, "Light cavalry, I hope it will be led by Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong; The assault cavalry, I hope it will be led by Guan Yunchang or Zhang Yide, so Zhang Yide; The ironclad infantry is led by Zhang He and Guan Hai, or the lord will lend Dian Wei to me,...... No, then Zhang He; Archers, Zhang Liao is the most suitable; The heavy cavalry needs a fierce general, Xu Huang Xu Gongming; Crossbowmen, commanded by Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng. I hope to transfer Li Jin and Li Zishan to participate in the military affairs of the war. ”

"I promise you", Liu Bei said briskly, and then, muttered vaguely: "This is a super luxury lineup, no matter how invincible it is, it is unreasonable." ”

Xu Shu was overjoyed, thanked him repeatedly, and said goodbye to Liu Bei triumphantly.

Looking at Xu Shu's distant back, Liu Bei sighed secretly, when a nation full of hatred gets a chance to vent, they will be quite cruel. He had a premonition that a ferocious dragon had been released in his hands, and that they would return laden with flesh and blood.

For thousands of years, the Han people have always built cities and guarded, waiting for the nomads to come and plunder, and before, Liu Bei's attack on the Xiongnu and Xianbei can only be said to be a forced counterattack, but this time, it can be regarded as an active attack. For thousands of years, the Han people were only lambs to the slaughter in the eyes of nomads, waiting for them to harvest with their swords. Now, when the lamb suddenly bared its fangs, and with a fierce bite, pounced on everything standing in its path, and the nomads would find that the lamb had a temper, and that they were wolves in sheep's clothing.

Hundreds of years have passed since the Han taught the Xiongnu, and for hundreds of years, the alien race has figured out the temper of the Han nation, and adopted the "struggle" method of surrendering when the soldiers come, and rebelling when the soldiers go, but this time they miscalculated, and the fierce Liu Beijun had no reason not to surrender, as long as the slaves and all their property. Xu Shu pointed out that the tribes had no time to resist, and they were crushed to pieces. Subsequently, 300 years since the Xiongnu migrated westward, another national westward migration frenzy began. Of course, that's another story.

"Yun Chang is arrogant and looks down on the scholars, this expedition, Xu Shu would rather have Zhang Fei than Guan Yunchang, which shows Guan Yu's personality. It seems that we have to find a chance to talk to Yun Chang well. Liu Bei put his hands behind his back,

Xu Shu sent troops this time, almost wiped out the famous generals in Qingzhou, these people happen to be Liu Bei's favorable, can be the handsome talent of the handsome, now, Liu Bei's only the talents of the generals who can be used are Gao Shun and Le Jin. Tai Shi Ci has left the south of the town; Zhou Yu went to Luoyang; The rest of the people, Lu Su entered the Governor's Mansion and was entangled in official business, although Dian Wei was brave, he was just a warrior; Guan Hai is more than honest, but the machine is insufficient; Guan Yu is rebellious, the whereabouts of Wen Ping are unknown, and the rest of the generals have not yet matured.

Liu Bei strolled into the backyard, wandering among the trees, the fruit trees were forested, the flowers were fragrant, and the birds were chirping non-stop, but Liu Bei had no time to enjoy the surrounding scenery, and the names of the generals appeared in his heart, weighing their advantages and disadvantages.

"Lord, lord", there were stacks of shouts outside the forest, and Chen Qun rushed into the forest, followed by Lu Zhi's eldest son, Lu Yu Lu Zi's house. Lu Yuzheng, who is in his fifties, replaces Lu Zhi as a senator in the Senate, and he is the representative of the people of Zhuo County in the Senate.

At that time, the veterans of Zhuo County who followed Liu Bei have now obtained a variety of titles, because of the relationship between Lu Zhi, Liu Bei still wants to call Lu Yu "world brother", indicating the friendship of several generations of the two families, therefore, Lu Yu is quite powerful in the Senate, and he is extremely nourished. With his salary, Lu Zhi's life no longer completely depends on Liu Bei's support, of course, many years of blackmail career have made Lu Zhi develop some habits, and Lu Zhi still does not refuse the good wine, good horses, and good utensils that Liu Bei offers.

Chen Qun has always regarded himself as Liu Bei's retainer, but Liu Bei was not polite to him, but first bowed to Lu Yu and saluted each other. Then, Liu Bei asked Chen Qun unhappily: "What are you arguing about?" Why is it in such a hurry?"

Chen Qun has been growing up in good times, and he climbed to a high position that his peers dare not imagine at a young age, how can he know how to observe words and colors, and he doesn't feel that he has destroyed the tranquility in the forest at all, and he said noisily: "Lord, you forgot, Mrs. Gao is going to play today, and the virtuous people in Qingzhou are going to listen, Lord, let's go, the time is coming." ”

"Oh, I remember", Mrs. Gao (Cai Yan) presided over the rhythm revision, which was recently completed, and this was her first public performance with a newly composed composition.

Although Qingzhou's military horn was formulated by Liu Bei, most of those military horn sounds were plagiarized from later generations of pop songs, for example, the military horn sound that asked the two armies to meet was "Do you know I'm waiting for you?" And Liu Bei compiled such phrases into the teaching materials of each trumpeter, so that the trumpeters could practice blowing.

Due to the lack of rhythm, it is very cumbersome to train a trumpeter in Qingzhou, and the former trumpeter needs to teach newcomers one by one, which is both difficult and time-consuming. The birth of the rhythm shortened the time to train a trumpeter from three to five years to one year or even several months. Therefore, when Cai Yan completed the formulation of the seventh-order rhythm, Liu Bei promised to build a small concert hall for her and her music lovers to use as a reward for this great cause.

This concert hall is called "Dingsheng", close to the Lei Building, similar to the club of later generations, its annex building was completed not long ago, and as soon as it was completed, it became a fixed activity place for Qingzhou veterans. After dinner, the patriarchs often gather here to drink tea, drink and chat.

Three days ago, the main building of the concert hall, the magnificent circular concert hall, was renovated. Today, Cai Yan personally took the stage to play a piece composed with a new rhythm. Liu Bei has agreed to bring his wife Huang Ying and Zhang Yan'er to the party.

"Is it time? Let's go. Liu Bei cut a pear blossom from the tree and carefully played with it in his hand: "Lead the way in front of your head." ”

The three of them got into the carriage, and Chen Qun chattered endlessly: "Lord, the housewife and Miss Zhang have already gone first, she asked me to call you, please go and arrange it immediately......"

Liu Bei waved his hand and pressed Chen Qun's words: "What do you want to say?" Say it. ”

Chen Qun glanced at Lu Yu and carefully chose the words: "The housewife and Miss Yan'er appeared together, although this is the first time that the three sisters, Mrs. Gao, the housemother, and Miss Yan'er, have appeared together on a formal occasion since they parted in Luoyang, and the scene is really touching, but Miss Yan'er's identity is really difficult to arrange...... Lord, what are your plans? ”

Liu Bei glanced at Lu Yu: "Brother Shi is here, there must be a reason, does the teacher have anything to say?" ”

Lu Yu nodded solemnly and said, "Therefore, Mrs. Zhang Wen only left Miss Yan'er's blood seedling, and my father, as a friend of Mrs. Zhang, felt very guilty when he saw that he was displaced from the disaster of war and was unable to help. Therefore, I will never bear to suffer any more, my father said, he is in charge, but his old man is ill and cannot come to preside over it personally, the eldest brother is the father, so I will make the decision for you. ”

According to the etiquette system at that time, Liu Bei's parents died, and as the division commander, Lu Zhi did have this qualification to control Liu Bei's marriage. In this situation, Liu Bei just pushed the boat down the river: "It's troublesome." Chen Qun, go and inform the master of ceremonies to arrange Miss Zhang's position behind the main mother. ”

In the concert hall, the ministers and veterans of Qingzhou held wine glasses in their hands, chatting in twos and threes, and three rows of chairs arranged in a semi-arc shape surrounded a small round platform, guarding the small stage like the stars holding the moon. A shiny yaoqin painted with tung paint lay proudly on the stage, quietly waiting for the pair of unparalleled jade hands to play.

While everyone was talking, Chen Qun came to open the door and walked into the hall. When everyone in the hall saw him come in, they all looked for a nearby platform, put away their wine glasses, put their clothes together, and straightened their chests.

Chen Qun ignored everyone, pulled the master of ceremonies, and whispered a few words, and the master of ceremonies then tiptoed out. After a while, he led three or two people to carry a senator's chair and hurried back, and after a period of hecticism, the first row of seats became a back-backed high chair in the center, two lean-backed senator chairs were placed on the left and right, and the second and third rows were ordinary veterans' chairs.

As soon as the seats were placed, Guan Ning walked in leisurely, followed by the drunken Kong Rong, glanced at the scene in the hall, Guan Ning's eyes lit up, pointed to the seats in the first row and asked, "Is Mrs. Mi here too?" No, Mrs. Mi is here, and the chair is not set up correctly, and the chair on the west side should be half a step back. ”

Chen Qun trotted down, approached Guan Ning and said, "The Great Sect is here, then the chair should not be placed like this, you should be side by side with the lord, and the master mother and Miss Yan'er are sitting behind the lord." ”

Guan Ning stroked his beard complacently and advised: "Remember, my chair should be half a step away from the lord, this is a etiquette and cannot be overcome." Where is Xuande now? Oh, Miss Yan'er is going to sit in that position, I see. Whose idea was it? ”

Chen Qun replied neatly: "The Lord is chatting with General Gao, General Guan Yu, and General Zhang Fei in the lounge. The housewife and Miss Zhang Yan'er were accompanying Mrs. Gao, and it was Lu Gong's idea for Miss Zhang Yan'er to sit on that chair. ”

Guan Ning nodded slightly and said, "The people have arrived, so let's notify them to start." ”

Chen Qun agreed repeatedly, accompanied by a careful question: "Dajiaoxi, I'll show you the way, go to the lounge, please go this way." ”

As soon as Guan Ning and the others went out, the ministers hurriedly looked for their wine glasses, drank the wine in the glasses, handed the empty wine glasses to the servants, and began to sort out their clothes. After a while, Huang Ying and Zhang Yan'er led a group of housewives into the hall chattering. Suddenly there was a warbler sound in the hall, and under the greeting of the servants, all the women sat down one after another.

Under Huang Ying's pull, he blushed slightly and sat down with a twist. This stalemate fell into the eyes of the noblewoman, and suddenly, they looked into Zhang Yan'er's eyes, a little more afraid and flattering.

In the Han Dynasty, the defense of men and women was not as strict as that of the Song Dynasty, and it was not as ruthless as the Ming and Qing dynasties. In Qingzhou, during the Yellow Turban Turmoil, Liu Bei encouraged women to develop the breeding industry, and the subsequent rise of the textile industry increased women's economic income. With the support of income, the status of women has begun to improve significantly, and they can calmly sell alcohol and show their heads. For more than ten years, Qingzhou has become accustomed to Liu Bei's quirks, and the fact that they and his wife are on the same stage has been regarded as a matter of course, and finally it has become a fashion. And Cai Yan's birth, her talent has won an honor for Qingzhou women, as her good sisters, Huang Ying and Zhang Yan'er have gathered Qingzhou ladies this time, dressed up, and cheered for Cai Yan.

In the hall, colorful jewelry competed with each other, dazzling the eyes of everyone in the hall. However, all the stars are not as bright as the sun, and the moment Cai Yan appeared, it was as if a sun had risen on the stage, and everyone was burned by her beauty.

Light makeup is elegant, the jade hand gently glides over the strings, and the sound of the piano is like flowing water, immersed in everyone's heart, like summoning, urging, and resentful, and the hall is suddenly silent.

"Salute", with a shout, the door of the hall opened, Liu Bei took Guan Ning's arm with one hand, and walked in leisurely, followed by a large group of important ministers, the officers saluted him in unison, and the gold buttons on the cuffs were lined up in a straight line.

As everyone sat down, Cai Yanyu's hand plucked lightly, and the cheerful sound of the piano echoed in the hall. Everyone held their breath and listened intoxicated to the chapter of life, lest they miss a note.

Chen Qun was not qualified to sit down, he leaned on a pillar and calmly looked at the peerless beauties on stage. Cai Yan's noble family background and talents are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people. She doesn't need to show off, on the contrary, she is careful not to show her superiority so as not to hurt her guests. However, this caution is full of condescension, which makes her seem even more arrogant.

Involuntarily, Chen Qun compared her to the main mother Huang Ying. Both of them are ladies with prominent family backgrounds, and they are both rare beauties, but Huang Ying gives people the impression that she is gentle and quiet. Kind, she has always been under the wings of the lord, just like the carefully cared for roses in the greenhouse, her heart is full of satisfaction and calm, like the waves of the lake.

And Cai Yan is different, although she tries her best to behave with full etiquette, gentleness, politeness, and easy-going, but by chance, the flashing edge in her eyes, the confidence inadvertently revealed in her tone, the straight waist and the high cloud temples, make her temperament arrogant and overriding everything, strong and proud, under the cover of the appearance of the country and the city, is the domineering of all beings!

"Lord, know people, Cai Yan is such a peerless beauty, only Gao Shun is a self-humble, steady peerless general can be worthy, with such a proud person as the mother, it will inevitably make a large number of subordinates ashamed, perhaps ......, only the mother's mother, such a gentle, humble, and righteous person is a model of motherhood in the world. As for Miss Zhang Yan'er, she was separated from her childhood, her identity was undecided, and her personality was not obvious, but with her mother, there should be no big problem. ”

Raising his head and looking at the south, Chen Qun prayed silently: "I hope Miss Yan'er is a strong-willed person, the housewife treats people too gently, I don't know what people are unpredictable, Mrs. Mi is full of thinking about making money, and she will only earn benefits for Liu Changongzi in the future." Liu Hun is about to come back, and with Miss Yan'er's support, I hope that the housewife will be strict with him. ”

Just when Chen Qun was talking alone. In Qinglugang, Liu Hun led the last group of withdrawn scouts to set foot on the land of Qingzhou. After stretching for a long time, Liu Feng said humbly: "Although Jiangnan is good, it is not my home, only this land of Qingzhou is the most cordial to me, brother, do you feel that the mood is particularly peaceful and relaxed." ”

Liu Hun exhaled lightly and said, "Of course, I finally brought you back with a lot of hair, can you be in a bad mood?" I was seven years old when I first went into battle, and when you first entered the war at a younger age than me, my father will be proud of you. ”

The boy scouts landed one after another, stretched their waists comfortably, and groaned: "We are still the best in Qingzhou, the road is straight and clean, and there are fruits on both sides of the road, so you can eat it when you are hungry." It's like the south, when it rains, you can't walk, and if you drink it, let alone the fruit, you can't even find a place to drink water. ”

Liu Hun patted his chest and said with palpitations: "Okay, there is a plague everywhere in the south, and no one of us has been infected with the epidemic in this battle, this is really lucky, who dares to drink the raw water of the south?" ”

Liu Feng jumped on the ground: "Go home, go home." By the way, my family has a manor nearby, and there is a big pool of hot springs in the manor, so let's take a good bath. ”

Liu Feng said, folding his fingers and planning: "I want to eat sugar buns, roasted sparrows, I want to drink rice porridge, eat shrimp, scones, meatloaf, I want to eat full, eat well, go quickly." ”

Liu Feng took the lead, leaving a trail of smoke and dust.
