Seeing Xi Zhen's expression that he had already understood, Lu Peng patted his nervous shoulder again: "Actually, you don't have to be too nervous, Zou Jing won't do too much in this matter, but the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang have obtained military merits, but they don't have official positions, so they just make a fuss." Then looking at the corpses all over the battlefield, the dumped flags and scattered knives and guns, Lu Peng said helplessly: "We can't participate in this matter, and we don't want to participate, so we can't have any gains in this battle we have worked so hard for." ”

At this time, Lu Peng let go of the hand holding Xi Zhen's shoulder, and suddenly said to him with a serious expression: "And the most important thing is that I observe that the world has changed, and the troubled times have begun. The Yellow Turban Army is just a sudden rebellion of a group of peasants, and in front of this big empire, its strength is actually quite weak. However, it was this weak strength that made the entire Han Empire at a loss, and had to issue a document calling on the powerful gentry everywhere to rectify their private armies, what does this mean? This shows that the armament of the entire empire has been completely abolished, and this shows that there is any military strength in various places, and it is definitely not me alone who sees this, but also those wealthy families with many talents. ”

Lu Peng suddenly waved his hand loudly, and said very imposingly: "This Yellow Turban Rebellion will be extinguished in a short time." But after the extinguishment, those wealthy families who have seen the weakness of the dynasty. ”

Then he pointed to his nose carefully: "Just like you and me, I will not give up my legitimate military power again, how can the clan power that has gathered legal soldiers willingly give up these soldiers and let them return to the field?" As long as you have the slightest ambition, you will not do such a stupid thing. ”

Then he opened his hands to the sky: "That is to say, no matter whether this Yellow Turban thief exists or not, the world is chaotic, and the situation of warlord division has been formed, whoever has the strength in his hands at that time will be the king of grass, and whoever will be able to survive in this troubled world." Whoever can show their ambitions in this troubled world. ”

Putting away his hands, Wang Bazhi's breath stewed (suddenly rising) and then straightened his chest, looking at Youzhou City hidden in the distant sky. "Even if you get an official position rewarded by the imperial court, so what? Let me tell you, when the troubled times are together, what general is too guarded, it stinks on the street, and the captain is a gravedigger. And the most beneficial thing is the strength in your hands. In order to completely brainwash this most loyal dead soldier, Lu Peng simply said in shock: "As long as I have the strength, as long as I can occupy a big foundation, I can make you a general and a captain, and the court must pinch your nose and admit that when the time comes, you, the general, will not be like in the court, you can only bear a few false names and command a few servants in the palace." And what you will have in your hands is thousands of troops and horses, and you are an upright general who crisscrosses the battlefield, so I ask you which one are you willing to choose? ”

Xi Zhen froze, he was completely shocked by Lu Peng's speculation, but according to what he had experienced and seen over the years, and what he had worried and pondered in the dark night, it was so consistent, and the whole world was developing towards what Lu Peng said just now. And it is exactly what Lu Peng said, the official and half-position given by the government now is simply not worth mentioning, in this troubled world, in the world of future warlord rebirth, it is indeed the most important thing to have a strong strength, and at this time, thinking about what his lord has done, every step is to accompany him to raise a strength of his own in operation, which has to make Xi Zhen once again admire the foresight and wisdom of his lord.

At this time, there are no outsiders, all of them are their own henchmen, and telling them their own judgment and ambition directly is absolutely beneficial to win their hearts and gain their following.

"And what is the most fundamental thing to master a strength that belongs to us? The first is to be loyal to our soldiers, such as now, these 100 loyal brothers, as well as those who are grateful to us to Dade and the people, is the foundation of this strength, in the future, you will become the colonel to become the core force of this army, as for the other soldiers, the troubled times have risen, the displaced people are everywhere, are you still worried about the source of soldiers? But let the soldiers fight for us willingly, one of the most critical things, that is, to let them have enough to eat, so I ask to stay and clean up the spoils that Captain Zou Jing disdains, of course, this is also something that Liu Guanzhang disdains, but it is these things that are the foundation of our future life, as the so-called, the economy determines the superstructure, absolutely careless, can not give up. ”

With such an analysis of Lu Peng, Xi Zhen once again threw himself into the ground for the five bodies that the lord admired, which is the so-called people who have no long-term concerns, and must have near-term worries. And now his lord is already standing on a high place and looking into the distance.

Seeing that Xi Zhen had understood his purpose, he patted him on the shoulder: "Since you have understood my nature, it is easy, why are you still standing stupidly?" Hurry up, clean up the battlefield. ”

Xi Zhen happily replied loudly and loudly, and then led more than 600 of his men to start searching the battlefield.

In fact, there is really nothing to clean on the battlefield, because these rogues are indeed too poor. The clothes were all tattered, and there was no use for them. And the weapons in their hands were no more than sharpened wooden clubs, but there were still some iron knives and guns, which were just enough to arm the five hundred people behind them.

So Lu Peng took everyone directly to the direction where Liukou came.

At this time, Xi Zhen watched Lu Peng still move forward along the mark left by Liukou, so he stopped Lu Peng suspiciously and asked: "Lord, if we go further, we will already walk out of the battlefield, and we will have nothing to gain." ”

As a result, Lu Peng lifted the war horse, ran directly onto a small hill, set up a pergola with his hand and looked around, and muttered to Xi Zhen to explain: "Although the Yellow Turban Army is a rogue, according to the habit, it is where to eat and where to rob, but this time it is an army of 50,000 after all." There must be countless loots along the way, and at the same time, the target of the 50,000 army is Youzhou, this Cheng Zhiyuan is also a famous general among the Yellow Turban thieves, it is impossible for him not to know, the Youzhou City he will face is high and deep, and there are many soldiers and generals, it is not possible to take it down in a while and a half, so it Cheng Zhiyuan should reserve enough food and grass for the entire army in the back, otherwise, needless to say, the attack on Youzhou City will starve them to death if they are hungry. ”

When Xi Zhen heard this, his head immediately opened up, and he followed Lu Peng to build a pergola and look around: "Your lord, you are right, the 50,000 army is moving forward, and the grain and grass will inevitably follow." According to the rules of the army, he Cheng Yuanzhi will definitely set up a logistical camp not far away, so as to continuously deliver grain and grass to the front in the future. And this time we suddenly met with our main force, fought an inexplicable encounter, and the defeat was so rapid that Cheng Yuanzhi and several other generals were beheaded by us on the spot, so these routs must not care about the grain and grass behind them and scattered. And after our observation now, we have not found any smoke rising from far and near, which proves that they did not burn the grain and grass of the army. So, if we're lucky, we're going to make a fortune. ”
