The sky was slightly bright, the thin morning mist, like a light veil shrouded the earth, the majestic and steep peaks, hidden in the faint morning light, Liu Wei sat on a protruding rock at the foot of the mountain, staring at the busy people below with deep eyes.

After a night of turbulence on the Yellow River, these Guanxi and Guanzhong men can be regarded as guilty, all of them are pale and mentally exhausted, they originally wanted to fall asleep on the shore with the permission of Liu Wei, but at Liu Bian's request, they still obediently set up a simple tent, spread it on the ground with dead branches, and spread thatch on it before they could sleep.

It is now the beginning of October, in the later generations, this month is neither hot nor cold, it can be said to be the most comfortable season, but in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the weather in October has been quite cold.

If these people sleep in the cold wind and sleep directly on the ground, they need to say whether they will get arthritis or other diseases in the future, just say that a simple cold can kill people, and this group of soldiers is the only force that Liu Wei can use at present, so Liu Wei must be careful with the lives of each of them.

However, except for a few people brought by Yan Xing to survey the environment, there were still more than thirty of them, and they didn't need to cut down trees to do such elaborate measures to defend against the enemy, they just set up a few simple tents, and the speed of building them was also very fast.

Liu Wei's bright, deep dark eyes stared at the scribbled and simple topographic map on the ground, which Yan Xing had drawn with a wooden stick before leaving, and marked the distribution of various forces on it.

After a conversation on the boat, he realized that he knew a lot of things from the history books and was not even a skin, to say that the biggest force in Hanoi County was not the Bai Bo Army and the Southern Xiongnu, not to mention the local bandit forces, and even the imperial court forces represented by Wang Kuang were not enough to see in front of this force.

The big clans, the big families are the most powerful forces in Hanoi County, they not only have armed forces in their hands, but also control the real voice in the entire Hanoi County.

And the head of this force is the Wenxian Sima family, but strictly speaking, the Wenxian Sima family is not actually a big family, at most a top wealthy family.

The Gaine family needs to have a family learning to pass on the generations, the study of chapters and sentences, keep a classic, pass it on from generation to generation, and do learning from generation to generation, such as the Runan Yuan family and the Hongnong Yang family of the fourth and third princes, they are the top families.

The historical record of Sima Jun, the ancestor of the Sima family, in the last years of Emperor An, was mainly Deng Qiu's wingman, because of the pacification of the Qiang rebellion, Feng Yi was promoted to the general of the west, and the Sima family was considered to be born in a military family, so it was called a wealthy family, and its marriages were mostly aimed at the wealthy family.

However, it is always the case that many families in Hanoi are headed by the Sima family, one is because the head of the Sima family, Sima Fang, appointed Luoyang Ling, in addition to the restriction of military power, is in charge of the judicial, economic, public security and other rights of the entire division, which can be described as a high authority, and Sima Fang has a fair personality, has a prestige, and treats everything impartially, in order to get the support of the entire Hanoi family.

Of course, the most important thing is that the number of Hanoi families is small, and there are no prominent families, so it is understandable that the Sima family can become the head of the family's power.

In addition to the Hanoi family, the power of the wealthy family, the second is the Hanoi Taishou Wang Kuang represented by the imperial court forces, Wang Kuang Zi Gongjie, originally Yanzhou Taishan County, known as a talented scholar and Cai Yonglun Xue, is to move the world with fame, the general He Jin heard his reputation and recruited him into the palace, as the general's mansion Peng.

Later, Emperor Ling died, and He Jin intended to exterminate the eunuchs, and recruited many heroes to recruit troops and horses together, ready to annihilate the eunuchs. Therefore, in order to carry out his orders, Wang Kuang, who belonged to He Jin's subordinates, returned to his hometown of Taishan County, Yanzhou, to recruit troops and recruited 500 strong archers, but at this time, many eunuchs led by Zhang Rang rushed to kill He Jin, making the overall plan come to naught.

In desperation, Wang Kuang had to return to his hometown, and later Dong Zhuo entered the court, in order to show his heart, he summoned He into the old department, and Wang Kuang was appointed as the Taishou of Hanoi.

After all, Wang Kuang is a member of the imperial court, his status is orthodox, and he has a legitimate military power, because although his power is not as good as that of the family, he also has considerable prestige in the county.

As for the forces of the rebellious army, in fact, they have the same as the local bandit forces, they are all kings of the mountain, the difference is that not some of the bandits have the secret support of the big families, and the strength of the rebel army is the weakest, and the reason why it is said to be the weakest is because the main force of the rebel army is placed in the state.

Zhang Yang's word Shuya, originally a native of Bingzhou, has a similar experience to Wang Kuang, but his luck seems to be a little worse, Wang Kuang was newly appointed as the Taishou of Hanoi, but Zhang Yang did not get an official position, it was because he was angry and stationed troops and annexed the state, faintly having the tendency of separating one side.

Thinking of this, Liu Wei couldn't help but sigh deeply, coupled with the Bai Bo Army and the Southern Xiongnu forces, there are five or six forces in a small Hanoi County, the situation is so complicated, if you look at the entire Han world, wouldn't it be much more complicated?

The road is long, I will go up and down and seek, want to finish this road, I don't know what year and month.

Liu Wei shook his head, originally thought that he only needed to face the forces of the Bai Bo Army, but he didn't expect it to be so difficult to stand firm in Hanoi County, the more he thought about it, the more irritable he became, and he didn't feel sleepy in his heart, so he simply got up and prepared to walk around~

As soon as he turned his head, he saw that Xu San had not fallen asleep, and was sitting cross-legged not far away with the whetstone he picked up and carefully rubbing the [Iron Sword] in his hand, saying that all weapons and armor in this era need to be maintained, and the armor can be cleaned, oiled, and dried in order to maintain its defensive strength.

The weapon maintenance steps are more cumbersome, in addition to cleaning, oiling, drying, but also need to be polished from time to time, often rubbed, the ancients believed that weapons have a soul, not only to rub weapons from time to time, eat, sleep, etc.

However, Xu San didn't know that the [Iron Sword] was actually produced by the system, even if it was used for hundreds of years, soaked in water every day, it would not rust and become dull, and the [Swordsmanship] skill that came with the [Iron Sword] itself definitely made him feel like an arm to the [Iron Sword].

"Your Highness!"

Liu Wei got up and walked over, Xu San was immediately alert, looked up and saw that it was Liu Wei, hurriedly stopped what he was doing and got up to salute.

"No need to be polite~" Liu Wei waved his hand, turned his head to look at the sleeping soldiers, and saw that no one was woken up, so he turned his head to Xu San and said: "You and I are quiet, it is not easy for the brothers to have a bumpy night, let them sleep a little longer." ”

"Your Highness is kind-hearted!"

Xu San's heart warmed in an instant, for their big soldiers, what kind of people are the most worthy of following? It's not a heroic overlord, but a person like Liu Wei who reassures them, and Wu Qi's soldiers don't spin in battle, the reason is that Wu Qi always takes the soldiers to heart.

"Compare your heart to your heart~" Liu Bianmo held the [Iron Sword] sword face and said: "This sword, can you use it easily?" ”
