Chapter 16: Five Thousand Soldiers
A few days later, the small business of Liu Braid's pawnshop was still good, although there was nothing valuable in the homes of ordinary people, but it was just like this, and thousands of ancient coins were exchanged, and all kinds of bronze miscellaneous pieces, as well as individual candlesticks, bronze mirrors and other things; Liu Braid is still quite satisfied with this, after all, now that Luoyang is ruined, it is good to have a little harvest, much better than he expected, and the price he paid is only a few thousand catties of rice, these people will not only not starve to death with these rice, but more importantly, they will not be desperate to join the bandits.

Liu Braid has been going to the construction site of the barracks for the past few days, and for several days in a row, Liu Braid feels that thousands of people are still working so slowly... The most annoying thing is that he also learned from the mouth of the crowd that this is the fastest speed they have ever seen in rushing to work, the workers are all eating and running away to work, and they are already working very hard, although the military camp requested by Liu Braid is larger, but this progress still does not meet the requirements, no, you can't delay time so much, you have to think of a way to train the troops first, sharpen the knife and not chop wood.
When Liu Braid returned to the pawnshop from the construction site, Bu San walked up to Liu Braid in a few steps and said, "Lord, Lord Lu Zhilu came to visit you with a person who looked like a soldier, and I also arranged for them to wait for you in the inner hall."
"You did a good job, Bu San, you don't want to be that Shi Chang in the future, your people are all croppers, you let me tell Xu Gouzi for a while, let him go to the first Shi to find Zhou Bo to report, and then you will be the housekeeper of the palace, now let's live here for the time being, we will definitely change places in the future, and the soldiers of the second and third shih will also let them be housekeepers in the house, and they will all be under your control."
"If so, it's all arranged by the lord"
"Okay, you take me to the inner hall, Mr. Zigan is still waiting for me inside."
After Liu Braided walked to the inner hall, Lu Zhi and Zhu Yu both got up and handed over their luggage, and said, "See the lord" and "Participate in His Royal Highness King Hongnong"
Liu Braided looked at this eight-foot (about 1.82 meters) strong man, and wondered in his heart, which historical general is this?
Lu Zhi spoke first: "Lord, do you still know him?" ā
Liu Braid's heart slandered your sister who knew me, didn't I tell you that I have amnesia? You're a pig's brain
But it said: "It seems to be a little impression, but it's a pity that I can't remember anything before, and every time I try to think about it, my head hurts faintly."
"This is the former Hanoi Taishou; Qiantang Hou: Zhu Yu, Zhu Gongwei"
Liu Wei was also a fan of the Three Kingdoms before, and he quickly remembered Zhu Yu in his heart, this person is very capable, Zhu Jun was born in a poor family, and he was famous for supporting his mother when he was a teenager. He is a good person, righteous and light on wealth, and the township respects him. Later, he was raised by Xu Jue as filial piety. Moved to Lanling Order, with special political achievements, was recommended by the above table. Soon after visiting the history of Jiaozhou, he led only 5,000 soldiers to break the rebels and pacify Jiaozhou. After the war, he was awarded the title of Pavilion Marquis of the capital and entered the court as a counselor.
During the Yellow Turban Uprising, Bai Zhu Jun was the right middle lang general and held the festival. After pacifying the land of the three counties, he was promoted by Huangfu Song, entered the Xixiang Marquis, and moved to the town thief Zhonglang General. Soon he entered the right car to ride the general, and was named the Marquis of Qiantang. Later, he was the Taishou of Hanoi and repelled the advancing Zhang Yan. When Dong Zhuo was in power, he wanted to take Zhu Jun as his deputy, but he politely refused. When Li Wei ****, he took Zhu Jun as the captain and recorded the book. After the line of hussars will be military, holding the town of Kanto.
When Li Yu and Guo Yan attacked each other, Guo Yan took Zhu Jun as a hostage, Zhu Jun had a strong personality, and died of illness on the same day.
Zhu Yu in history is still quite a person
Liu Braided immediately showed admiration and said, "It turns out that this is the famous General Zhu Gongwei, Xiao Wang has long heard of General Zhu's name, he is really a great talent of Wenneng Anbang and Wu Neng Dingguo, is General Zhu here to wish Xiao Wang can save the people of Luoyang from the dire situation?" The general is really a supporter; Save the common people and the blessings."
Liu Braided first threw out the beautiful words of not wanting money as if he didn't want money, and first put Zhu Yu on the moral high ground, so that he couldn't stay if he wanted to.
As an ancient, although Zhu Yu has lived for 42 years, and the average ordinary people in the Han Dynasty have lived to thirty or forty years old, he has never seen a superior person praise himself so much, and he is so comfortable to hear, presumably he must have never seen our Uncle Liu Huang who played the emotional card more than Liu Braided Niu X, but when Liu Bei really gained power in his later years, he was no longer as humble as in the past, and he became arbitrary.
"His Royal Highness is above, the criminal minister is incompetent, causing the Dong thief to forcibly move the capital, causing the people of Li to be ruined, and the hundred-year-old capital is reduced to ashes, and the minister is willing to follow His Royal Highness Kuangfu Han Sheji and exterminate the Dong thief" Zhu Yu knelt on his knees, but raised his head and said to Liu Braid
Liu Braided hurriedly went to help Zhu Yu up, and said: "General talent, don't do these false courtesies, see Xiao Wang in the future, just give it up"
"How can that be, Your Highness's daughter's body, and the ministers are willing to drive for Your Highness"
Liu Braided once again helped Zhu Yu up and said, "General, please get up quickly."
Then he shouted at Bu San next to him: "Go and help General Zhu clean up a good room, and go prepare wine and food, I want to ask General Zhu and Mr. Zigan not to get drunk and not return."
"The lord is slow," Zhu Yu stood up and bowed to Liu Braid and Lu Zhi
"General Zhu has other things," Liu Braided asked
"The minister entered the city alone today, but there were 5,000 soldiers with the ministers to the outside of Luoyang City, because they were afraid of entering the city and causing riots, thinking that the soldiers were chaotic, so the ministers themselves went to Luoyang City to meet His Highness."
Liu Braid's heart at this time is really mixed, happy that he has a good general, and 5000 soldiers and horses, surprised that fortunately, these 5000 soldiers and horses are friends and not enemies, otherwise his 400 dozens of untrained family waste firewood in addition to his own weapons and equipment locked in the warehouse, was beaten into the city, shot to death on the bed and did not know it, think about it in a cold sweat, what is more important than the life of the richest man in the future Han Dynasty...
Liu Braid originally thought about whether to fully arm the 5,000 men and horses, but after thinking about it, in the troubled times at the end of the Han Dynasty, the army was no longer the army of the state, but the private army of the princes and warlords, although the 5,000 soldiers and horses were nominally under his command after Zhu Yu was loyal to him, but in fact it was still Zhu Yu's private army, although Liu Braided looked at Zhu Yu in history and was still a reliable person, but it was better to be careful, so thinking of this, Liu Braid immediately made up his mind. said to Zhu Yu: "The general is really a loyal minister of the Han family, and I will go to the Son of Heaven tomorrow to seal General Zhu as the general of Henan Yin and the west; The general can bring these 5,000 soldiers and horses into the city for repairs, and during this period, the supply of grain and grass can be transferred from my private treasury by contacting Bu San, the housekeeper in my house."
Zhu Yu said: "The minister obeys the order; The ministers thanked the lord for the 5,000 soldiers, and they hurried all the way from Hangu Pass with their ministers to this place, and they did not eat a few full meals, and the ministers were very strict with them, not allowing them to plunder the people, and they also suffered from these soldiers."
Liu Braided said, "Okay, they are all the pillars of my Han family, Bu San, go and distribute the 5,000 cans of meat I have in the warehouse to General Zhu and the soldiers; In addition, I have to trouble Mr. Zigan to find a place in the city for the soldiers to stay."
Lu Zhidao "Congratulations to the lord for getting a good minister, thousands of soldiers, the minister thought that General Zhu and the soldiers had found a good station, in the original army station at the north gate of the city, but it was dilapidated and far away from the center of the city, and it was not recommended to the lord before, and now General Zhu has thousands of soldiers and horses, and he lives here just right, which will not disturb the people in the city, but also prevent the bandits of Hu Yan and his gang in Ping County, North Gate."
Liu Braided said, "Okay, just follow Mr.'s words"
