The night before Tian Jing and the others rushed to Xiangping, his father Tian Chou had a long talk with Tian Jing all night and discussed the form of the world with him again. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Tian Chou said: "My son, you are very happy for you to have today's results for your father." But it is still what I said to you at the beginning, your east of the river is a dead land, and it is okay to divide the territory as you say, but the general trend is that the world will be unified sooner or later. At the beginning, Gongsun Zhan, Lu Bu, Yuan Shu, Zhang Yang, which one of Yuan Shao was not a hero, and now they are all dead and disgraced, what do they leave behind? I see that Cao Cao has the wisdom of knowing people, the wisdom of employing people, and the generals under his command are innumerable, and the son of heaven is not a minister, and he is afraid that it will be Cao Cao who will unify the world, why don't I descend to Cao, and also seek a well-being for the people of the world. ”

Tian Jing said: "My father doesn't know. Cao Cao's name is Han Xiang, but he is actually a Han thief, and the saint is now a puppet controlled by Cao Cao. If it weren't for the edict against Cao Cao, I wouldn't have broken with Cao Cao. This is the second, many of my generals have a grudge against Cao Cao, Zhang Quan shot Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang, and Lu Bu's old department is even more in the same situation as Cao Cao, but I am afraid that Cao will not be able to see it. This is the third, Cao Cao is a hero is tolerant, but his son is not easy to say, Cao Cao is thirty-five years older than me, how can I be under Cao Cao's son. ”

When Tian Chou heard this, he knew that there was no way to persuade him. asked Tian Jing what he planned to do next, "My son is plotting to seize Liaodong this time, but he wants to cut off the Guanwai, wait for the Central Plains, and then go south to conquer the world?" ”

Tian Jing said: "I mentioned Lu Yu to my father at the beginning, so now it is also an opportunity to go to Liaodong. Once Liaodong is taken, I am ready to take Liaodong as the foundation, go south to conquer Korea, and at the same time vigorously develop the naval army, and in the future, directly land and attack Qingzhou and Xuzhou through the naval army; Then merge the state, Liaodong, and Qingzhou at the same time to send troops to Youzhou and Jizhou to conquer the world. ”

Tian Chou didn't expect Tian Jing's plan to be so big, and he also knew that Tian Jing's development to this day is no longer his business alone, there are countless people's net worth and lives behind him, and there are also countless people's expectations for promotion and wealth, once the road to hegemony is set on, it cannot be stopped.

Early the next morning, Tian Jing and Gongsun continued to set off, and Tian Chou said goodbye to everyone and returned to Xu Wushan. Before leaving, Tian Jing had the opportunity to take Lu Wen to visit her mother.

After Gongsun Xu and his party arrived in Xiangping, they stationed their soldiers and horses outside the city. Gongsun continued to lead Tian Jing, Liu Yong, and Xu Shu to follow Lu Yu to see Gongsun Du.

Gongsun Du's Liaodong Taishou Mansion is magnificent and splendid, and its scale is definitely not under the palace of Xudu.

Before arriving at the main hall, there were guards in front of the door, and when they saw Gongsun Xu and others approaching, they signaled that they were not allowed to bring weapons inside. After a few people untied their swords, the guards searched their bodies to see if they were not carrying any daggers or other items, so they invited a few people to enter.

In the middle of the hall, the civil officials on the left and the military generals on the right were lined up on both sides. Where is this Taishou Mansion Meeting, it is simply the feeling of the emperor going to court. It can be seen that this Gongsun Du has long had the heart of not being self-reliant.

According to the regulations of the Western Han Dynasty, the subordinate officials of the Taishou Mansion have five senses, and the main shrine is the head of the Cao; Gong Cao Peng, in charge of all personnel in the county; Supervising the post Cao Peng, in charge of picketing the county and supervising the officials and people of the county; Hu Cao Peng, in charge of household registration, household account, field house farming; Cang Cao Peng, in charge of the warehouse, cooking, property, and the affairs of the market; Decide Cao Peng, the main criminal law, the law order; than Cao Peng, in charge of the inspection; Shi Cao Peng, the main season, the ancestral shrine; Tian Cao Peng, the main field affairs; Shui Cao Peng, the main construction of water conservancy; It will be built as Cao Peng, and the main project will be built; Jin Cao Peng, the main currency salt and iron affairs; Set Cao Peng, the main counties on the plan; Cao Cao Peng, the main water transport; Fa Cao Peng, the main post department of the Cheng Shi; resignation of Cao Peng, the main resignation of the lawsuit; Doctor Cao Peng, chief medical officer; Literary Cao Peng, whose responsibility is to manage the school, is also in charge of education and etiquette in the county; The main bookkeeper, who is in charge of the documents; Shaofu, in charge of Taishou's private property. The military attache has a soldier Cao Peng, who mainly recruits and transports soldiers; Wei Cao Peng, the main pawn and the transfer of affairs; thief Cao Peng, the main thief; Thief under the Gate: The main guard, similar to the captain of the guard. There are no less than 20 of these subordinate officials alone, plus the history of each Cao deputy position, such as the history of Gong Cao, the history of Bing Cao, etc., that is, more than 40, all of which are taken from the imperial court, not counting the subordinate officials of Cao Peng. But at the end of the Han Dynasty, many of these official positions were gone, the first did not have so many things to deal with, and the second imperial court could not afford to raise so many officials, especially like the Taishou under Tian Jing, it would be good to have a county officer, a captain, and a master book to handle political affairs, and he did not have so many talents. But this time, Tian Jing, who arrived at Gongsun Du's Taishou Mansion, opened his eyes, and dozens of officials stood in the hall, no different from the Son of Heaven.

Although Tian Jing, Gongsun Xu, Xu Shu and others were surprised, Lu Yu was used to it but didn't feel anything wrong. Lu Yu went up to the lobby and saluted Gongsun Du, "Qi Yu Taishou, Lu Yu is fortunate not to be dishonored, and has properly placed the servants of General Gongsun Xu, and today I am here to restore my life, and ask General Gongsun Xu to come to the church to meet Lord Taishou." ”

Gongsun Du was born strong and tall when he was young, with a good appearance, but unfortunately now he is older, his hair is sparse and gray, his eyes are cloudy, his eyes are black, and he is slightly hunchbacked, and he is really old. He nodded and said "yes", clearly feeling a lack of qi.

Gongsun Xu and the other four people stepped forward to salute, "Meet Lord Taishou!" ”

Gongsun Du looked at Gongsun Xu, and then at Tian Jing next to him, and it seemed that he couldn't tell who the two of them were. At this time, Gongsun continued to take a step forward and said to Gongsun Du, "When the lower official is here, I have heard my father say many times that General Gongsun Du is a hero in the matter, and when I see it today, it is really extraordinary." In terms of the father, Gongsun Xu is the son and nephew of the Taishou Lord, and the younger nephew was defeated and surrendered, and he was taken in by his uncle, and he was really grateful. ”

Gongsun Du heard Gongsun Xu's praise, although he knew that it was a sycophant, but he was still very comfortable. "Good, good! Even if you have vision, it's right to come to Liaodong, here you want soldiers and soldiers to have money and food, but I'm afraid that there is no richer and safer place in the world than my Liaodong. I have ordered you to be appointed as the captain of the cavalry, and after the morning discussion is over, you can ask the two lords of the company, Gong Cao and Changshi, to make detailed arrangements for you. ”

As soon as Gongsun Du finished speaking, his eldest son, Gongsun Kang, the county magistrate Shi, came out, "Father, I have something to ask General Gongsun Xu." ”

Gongsun Du nodded in agreement. Gongsun Kang asked: "I don't understand two things, the first Gongsun Xu wants to surrender to my Liaodong, which was reported by Lu Yu, the chief bookkeeper, but General Gongsun Xu is far away in Youzhou Shanggu, I don't know when I met Lu Yu, how can I contact Master Lu?" Second, Liaoxi is the territory of Lord Wuhuan, how did you come to Yangle through Liaoxi, these two things are not clear, I can only doubt the real purpose of your coming to Liaodong? “

Gongsun Xu didn't know why he was targeting himself when he first came to this Gongsun Kang, could it be that he already knew our intentions, but it was impossible to think about it, so he replied calmly: "My father is a student of Lu Zhi, and I and Master Lu are old acquaintances in Youzhou." Master Lu has always advised me to return to Gongsun Taishou, so we have been exchanging letters. As for the second question you said, it is a secret for the people in the Guan, and it is okay for me to say it to all of you in Liaodong. In the Western Han Dynasty, it was originally a road from Lulongsai to Liucheng by taking White Wolf City. However, because of the war, the Liaoxi Governance Office was moved south, so this road was deserted, and no one has walked it for decades. Bandun occupied western Liaoning, and only knew how to guard the southern Guanka, but did not know that there was still a road in the north, so we took advantage of Bandun's unpreparedness to take the Yangle that Lu Long had stopped. ”

Gongsun Kang didn't expect Gongsun Xu to answer so calmly, he said to Gongsun Du: "Father, no matter what, we don't know about Gongsun Xu's past, I think it's not appropriate to let Gongsun Xu garrison the outskirts of Xiangping, and Gongsun Xu still has a lot of Wuhuan soldiers and horses under his command." The Wuhuan people have always refused to obey the indoctrination, and if they can't control it, they will definitely harass the people. So I suggest that General Gongsun Xu garrison Lelang. ”

Gongsun Du was a little hesitant when he heard this.

Gongsun Xu was naturally not happy to be suspected for no reason, and hugged his fists and said: "Lord Taishou, it doesn't matter where Gongsun Xu is stationed, but when I first arrived in Liaodong, I was innocently suspicious, how will I and my subordinates deal with ourselves in the future?" ”

Lu Yu also said: "The subordinates also think that since the Taishou Tairen has already given the order, the so-called order cannot be repeated, and if General Gongsun Xu is not at fault, it seems that the previous order should not be overturned." ”

In this way, Gongsun Du is a little difficult to choose.

At this time, Jin Cao Peng Gongsun Gong stood up, "Since my father has decided to use General Gongsun Xu as the cavalry captain, then the decree naturally cannot be changed. However, where is General Gongsun Xu's garrison, this matter can be discussed later, after all, I currently have 20,000 infantry troops in Liaodong, and there are two captains; 10,000 cavalry, two lieutenants; There are 10,000 ships and sailors, and there are two lieutenants. The arrangement under General Gongsun Xu was to consider the overall military deployment of Liaodong. ”

Gongsun Gong came out to speak, and Gongsun Du nodded in agreement. Gongsun Du felt that Gongsun Xu was questioned when he first came, and he was afraid that he would have resentment in his heart, so he said: "I think the few people who came with you are all good-looking, why don't you introduce them and let me know them." ”

Gongsun Xu turned around and introduced Tian Jing to a few people, "This is my brother-in-law Wang Li (Tian Jing's pseudonym) who serves as a military commander in our army, my brother-in-law Liu Yong serves as the chief of the army and is responsible for the grain and grass logistics in our army, and this Mr. Shan Fu (Xu Shu's pseudonym) is a military division in our army. ”

Gongsun Du said: "Not bad, not bad. In that case, these three still serve in your army according to their original positions, and they will be handed over to Gong Cao for the record. The cavalry captain's salary was calculated at 1,000 stones, and the 3 people were all counted at 600 stones, all of which were paid by the Taishou Mansion. ”

Gongsun Du said this, which undoubtedly gave Gongsun Xu a great benefit, because Taishou was a high-ranking official with 2,000 stones, the commander and the cavalry captain were 1,000 stones, the county magistrate Shi and the county Cheng were only 600 stones, Cao Peng's was only 100 stones, and Gongsun Xu's subordinate generals gave 600 stones.

Gongsun continued to lead the three of them to thank him. Gongsun Du asked some Cao if he had any affairs to report, and if not, he arranged to break up the morning discussion.
