This doubt has been holding back in Wang Yu's heart for a long time.

The goal of being dominant and winning the world was set by him from the beginning, and he has been working towards this goal. But as he learns more about this era, he realizes that his goal is not as simple as it seems.

Sun Jian's example reminded him that as of now, it is also strange that there are no talents who have heard the wind and come to invest.

Detouring to Nanyang, of course, is a strategic need, but Wang Yu did not have the intention of recruiting talents by the way, but as a result, one talent was recruited, but it was completely different from what he expected. He originally wanted to find a few more advisers, but he unexpectedly bumped into Huang Zhong.

After squinting his eyes and looking at it for a while, Jia Xu slowly spoke: "Lord, you should know about the disaster of the party, right?" ”

"I know." Wang Yu nodded.

To put it simply, the disaster of the party is that the scholars and the eunuchs representing the emperor compete for power and profit, and in the end the eunuchs win. This kind of struggle has also occurred repeatedly in the history of later generations, even if you have not studied history, you can still know it.

This battle directly led to the disaster of the later Ten Standing Servants, the entry of the Xiliang Army into Beijing, and even the Yellow Turban Rebellion were not unrelated...... It can be said that this is the opportunity to start the troubled times. ”

In the past, Jia Xu would definitely not say such excessive words, but now that he has tied his fate to Wang Yu, he is not so evasive.

In his opinion, although Wang Yu keeps saying that he wants to be loyal and serve, his loyalty is completely different from the usual sense, so he can say a lot of rebellious things to him.

"That's true, but what does it have to do with me?" Sure enough, Wang Yu didn't react at all, with a natural expression.

"It's a big deal."

Jia Xu smiled and said: "Lord, you are really smart for a while, and confused for a while!" In order to compete for power and profit, the party members would rather go against the Son of Heaven and the eunuchs who were close to the Son of Heaven, and they would not hesitate to spill their blood, even if you are famous, you can fight again. Can it be more deterrent than the Son of Heaven? ”

"......" Wang Yu blinked, still not knowing what Jia Xu said about what it had to do with him.

"Who are Baume & Mercier? Isn't it the son of a family? No one is sought after, where does the reputation come from? In the opposition, they are celebrities; Moving. They are the ministers; Fight with the eunuchs. They are party members; Fight each other, they are bureaucratic ......"

The smile on Jia Xu's face turned cold, and he said, "How could they take the initiative to come to you?" Don't forget, my lord. Your royal family has a very bad record, don't forget, where did you get the money and treasures of your defeated enemies? Not to mention taking the initiative to take refuge, even if you come to the door to invite, you may not be able to invite someone! ”

"It turns out ......" Wang Yu suddenly realized.

The money came from Daddy Wang Kuang who robbed a big family in Hanoi. He didn't take this matter to heart at all, and he had long forgotten about it. He forgot that this era was not a time when people didn't pay attention to Zhulian—at least on the surface, they didn't pay attention to the later generations of Zhulian, but the late Han Dynasty who paid their father's debts and sons, and paid attention to the family gatekeeper, which had a lot to do with him.

"Even in the name of loyalty and righteousness, for the sake of the king's affairs, the prince's behavior still annoyed most of the scholars in the world. The rabbit dies and the fox is sad, and the thing hurts it! If you have a righteous name, you can take the family casually...... Hehe, what family would like to let such a person gain power? ”

Jia Xu raised his eyes and saw that only Yu Ban was beside him. He no longer had any scruples, and then said: "Even if what the prince does can't be counted on your head, what you do is the same." Don't say anything else. Can you really hide the murder with a knife? Even if there is no evidence. But as soon as Yuan Benchu and his henchmen preached, how will the people of the world judge? ”

Well, there is a criminal record, and the traces of the disaster in Mengjin are also obvious, coupled with the influence of Yuan Valve...... Sure enough, it's a bit tricky.

After thinking for a moment, Wang Yu nodded.

"Does the lord know? On that day, many celebrities died under the iron cavalry of Bingzhou, although Lu Bu was hated by the celebrities, but there were also many who hated the lord, as far as Xu knew, the Sima family in Wenxian County died a little son in Mengjin, this account ......"

Jia Xu didn't finish his words, but of course Wang Yu understood.

I inadvertently killed Sima Yi's younger brother, and I already have a blood feud with that master and his family, and it is unlikely that he wants to be good.

"In addition, your family background ...... lord" Jia Xu cautiously observed Wang Yu's expression, and found nothing abnormal, so he continued: "Only the prince's generation has ever been a prince, and the official position is only a county guard, which is certainly very different from the Yuan family, even if other people ...... For example, that Cao Mengde, his father Cao Gong is a person who has been a captain! ”

"Also, when you were in Hedong, you were still mixed with Bai Bo and broke through the dock fort of the Wei family in Hedong...... For the rest, you don't need to go on, right? ”

Well, born in a local tyrant nouveau riche, the father and son generations are all bad, even if they gain momentum temporarily, they cannot be valued by the family. After all, the Wang family doesn't have many connections, and they don't have a territory that people can pay attention to, and the army under their command is only strong on the surface, and there is a danger of scattering at any time......

No wonder he is so close to Yingchuan, but no one has come to take the initiative to serve.

For celebrities, either nearby, or choose those with good family background and reputation, Yuan Shao is the first choice, Cao Cao, Yuan Shu and the like are the second choice, do you ...... I'm afraid it's the best of the alternatives, and at this point, I and Sun Jian really have the same disease.

"It seems that my reputation is not of much use." Wang Yu sighed, in his plan to compete for power, fame is a very important part, otherwise he would not have to fight and die here in Luoyang.

"That's not true."

Jia Xu shook his head and said meaningfully: "It's just useless to a famous family, if it weren't for your fame, how could a good general like Gongming and Hansheng fall in love with each other?" There are also many talents in the poor, but you need to discover them yourself, not like a famous person, you can judge based on reputation. ”

Jia Xu is talking about Huang Zhong and Xu Huang, but he is not implying that he himself does have a lot of talents from poor families.

The so-called Hanmen is actually a declining family, and its political status is similar to that of the upstart of the Taishan Wang family, these people are not very conspicuous, even if they come to work, most of Wang Yu will not be informed.

No matter what kind of army, there is no soldier who has joined the army, and the reason why the commander has to meet him in person. If that's the case, it's no wonder that the coach isn't busy.

Seeing Wang Yu's sudden expression, Jia Xu didn't care about himself. The conversation changed and said: "Your celebration ceremony is very good, the time is still short, and the effect is not obvious, and after a year and a half, the news will spread all over the world." The children of the poor who are not willing to be lonely will come over one after another. ”

"Is there the power of example?" Under the guidance of Jia Xu. Wang Yu's thinking became clearer and clearer.

Cao Cao in history also attached great importance to poor talents, although there was a reason for his far-reaching vision, but it was not out of helplessness.

The Cao family's family background can throw off the Wang family a few streets. But it is not enough to compare with the Yuan family, Yuan Shao's power is also greater than Cao Cao, and the latter wants to gather elites, so he can only find another way to tap those talents that the Yuan family looks down on.

Unintentionally. embarked on a similar path to Cao Cao.

Promoted to the forbidden army, Xu Huang and Huang Zhong were accepted between the reckless, Xu Huang was just a small official, Huang Zhong was even worse, and when he was old, he could only be a tun chief.

In addition, there is Jia Xu. Before he was captured by himself, Jia Xu's reputation was not much, and it was only because of the appreciation of the famous scholar Yan Zhong that he was a little famous in Wuwei, and his family background was not worth mentioning.

His own generals and staff. They were all from poor families, and he made a name for himself for several generals at that grand victory ceremony. This move was originally to gather the morale of the army and increase cohesion, but I never thought that it would have another effect.

"So. The lord's decision to abandon Luoyang was wise. ”

Jia Xu had always spoken to the point, and seeing that Wang Yu had completely understood, he brought the topic back to strategy: "Otherwise, even if the lord succeeds in capturing Luoyang." will only follow in the footsteps of Dong Zhuo, and the secretary will not support you. The situation at that time may be worse than Dong Zhuo, after all, the Xiliang Army still has a way to retreat, and you ......"

"Mr. Wenhe, how much do you think this plan is worth it?"

"It's hard to say."

Jia Xu said with a bitter face: "The plan itself is fine, but the problem is how to make everyone act according to the plan...... For example, Dong Zhongying fainted and couldn't be a director for more than half a month, resulting in no movement in Luoyang now, which is a big accident. ”

"Liu Jingsheng has not moved for a long time, which is very different from his decisive decision to pacify Nanjun, only Yuan Highway is as you expected...... But that's not a good thing. According to the news from Luyang, after Sun Wentai received the battle report from the lord, he seemed to be stimulated by something, and the march was even more violent than before......

"Runan is the nest of the Yuan family, with the response of the Yuan family's protégés and former officials, and the strong coercion of Sun Wentai outside, Runan may change hands at any time. The intention of the Yuan family is easy to speculate, but it is the highway general who is in charge, and it is difficult to predict what the direction of Nanyang will be in the end. ”

Wang Yu didn't plan to march into Luoyang, not just to make a promise to Xu Rong, but then he would fall into the land of death, without the supplies of Nanyang, and there were no taxes from all over the country, what was the use of him just holding on to an emperor?

What he doesn't want is a good thing for others, and he is ready to sell Luoyang for a good price.

He has a lot of troubles now, and the most difficult thing is the lack of money. The old book brought by Hanoi was thrown out by him in one go, it was easy to throw it out, but it was difficult to recycle it, there were too many people on the battlefield.

What is in the hands of the people cannot be returned. The troops did not dare to hide privately, but when they won the battle, they always had to reward the three armies, and if they came and went, he would have no money.

Therefore, he has to find a way to make money now, Luoyang, and the soldiers and horses in his hands are the best bargaining chips.

Wang Yu smiled confidently: "Anyway, the army is hanging, just like a sharp sword, where there is an accident, use this sword to force them to the right path, and finally successfully achieve our plan." ”

"Report ...... Lord, Nanjun and Nanyang are all here! ”

"Haha." Wang Yu's smile became brighter, "It should come, it will always come, the gold lord Liu Biao has already come, will Dong Zhuo be far away?" Mr. Wenhe, it's up to you next. ”

"Hmm." Jia Xu replied listlessly, and then asked, "What about the conditions?" ”

"What is this...... Wang Yu touched his chin and smiled meaningfully.
