In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", there is such a paragraph, Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan competed and lost to Lu Bu's might, and then Li Su volunteered to persuade Lu Bu, but Lu Bu then killed Ding Yuan and surrendered to Dong Zhuo.

At that time, Li Su said to Lu Bu: Su and the virtuous brother rarely see each other; Ling Zun often comes.

But when it was, Lu Bu just said clearly: A certain person is at Ding Jianyang's place, also out of helplessness.

Just if this is the case, it can be seen that Lu Bu is no longer Ding Yuan's father-in-law.

"Ding Jianyang is a state assassin in vain, but he is so short-sighted, it is ridiculous."

Recalling the episodes in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Wei Tao couldn't help but smile slightly and shook his head.

Wei Tao saw it with himself, when Lu Bu worshiped his father, it can be said that he worshiped sincerely, and even when he returned victoriously not long ago, it can be seen that Lu Bu sincerely wants to assist Ding Yuan.

In this way, how can it be so rusty in the end?

Even according to the original history, the most reluctant, Lu Bu personally said, 'I want to kill Ding Yuan, lead the army to Dong Zhuo', and then kill Ding Yuan and surrender to Dong Zhuo.

It can indeed be said that Lu Bu is ambitious, capricious, greedy, etc., but is Ding Yuan not at fault at all?

If the chief official trusts, his power is only under the chief official, if he is not trusted, it is just a false position.

Looking at Ding Yuan's approach, I am afraid that it is more about supplying Lu Bu to the generals, and even Lu Bu's original subordinates are treated like this, no wonder they will be so dissatisfied with Ding Yuan in the future.

Even at this time, Wei Tao couldn't help but feel a little dissatisfied.

"How is the young master preparing? Do you still have to obey Ding Jianyang's words, if not, how about transferring? In the name of my Chen Liuwei clan, Na Ding would not dare to embarrass the young master, but it would not be difficult to transfer to other places. ”

Hearing Wang He's words, Wei Tao frowned and shook his head slightly.

"Uncle Wang, I know that you are for my good, but I still have to think more about this matter."

In fact, it cannot be said that Ding Yuan's suggestion is a complete frame-up, at least, if it is a different place, it is impossible for people to serve as county lieutenants, or even act as county commanders.

It can be said that this is just the case, as long as some time passes, Wei Tao will be able to mix up a few qualifications out of thin air, and if he changes to other places, he will not be just a general.

But Wei Tao understands that he is just a teenager, and it is impossible to really use himself no matter where he is.

In this way, a place that can be autonomous is naturally extremely ***.

Fortunately, he just returned from Saiwai, so Wei Tao didn't have to rush to his post, he still had time to think about it slowly.

But soon Wei Tao found out that it was another trouble.

Originally, after being promoted to the general, Wei Tao was also able to control a hundred people, but he couldn't get any supplements at all, even the fifty people under Wei Tao's original command were cut in half in these days.

As Wei Tao, he is just a small general, and even if he asks for a lawsuit, there is no way.

However, before this incident, Cao Xing had promised to teach Wei Tao the art of bow and arrow, and Wei Tao used this as an excuse to ask for a meeting after a little thought.

"Since Ziyu wants to learn from me, it is naturally not difficult. In fact, although there are various skills in the art of bow and arrow, there is only one core, shooting thousands of arrows from the sun, so after three years of practice, the top shooter may not be able to count, but it is not a problem to shoot a hundred shots, a hundred steps through the Yang, etc. ”

After Cao Xuan learned of Wei Tao's intention, he shook his head and smiled slightly, and he didn't wait for Wei Tao to hand over a small book.

"Here are some of my experiences in practicing the art of bows and arrows, and I have also recorded some subtle techniques of bows and arrows, so you can just take them and practice them well."

In this regard, Wei Tao naturally accepted it with a smile, although I am afraid that there is no ability of Cao Xing to press the bottom of the box, but it is also very rare.

"General, I still have something to ask, now Jianyang has allowed me to be the county lieutenant of Mayi, but the general where Mayi is located also knows, if I don't bring people there, then I'm afraid it will be difficult to gain a foothold. But now......"

Before Wei Tao finished speaking, he saw that Cao Xing had already shook his head.

"General, isn't there anything wrong?"

Wei Tao felt a little 'Geleng' in his heart, and he knew that he was afraid that things would really not be able to go as he wished.

"In fact, the lord has already ordered, and now that I have been relieved of the trouble of the Huns, there is no need for so many soldiers, so the lord has decided to implement the policy of persuading the armor to return to the people. This matter is that General Lu can only agree, what can we do? ”

A sneer suddenly appeared on Cao Xing's face, and the smile was very cold, but it was obviously not for Wei Tao.

"Now there is a shortage of manpower in each camp, if it weren't for the fact that the position of Mayi County Lieutenant was personally appointed by adults, and others didn't dare to do too much, you would be lucky to have ten people."

Wei Tao can only be indifferent.

It is no wonder that when Na Lu Bu killed Ding Yuan and defected to Dong Zhuo, the sergeants under his command did not cause much mutiny, and it was obvious that Ding Yuan's eagerness to cut power also greatly caused the dissatisfaction of many generals.

You must know that although Lu Dao, including Cao Xing and others, also received a reward and promoted their positions this time, in fact, except for Gao Shun, most of the others are fictitious and have no real power at all.

Everyone is not stupid, even if they didn't pay attention at the time, where would they not know the truth later?

For a general like Cao Xing, really governing one side is far worse than commanding an army, and the high pavilion is idle, and one mistake is that it will be taken down.

had to pick up his tail and be a man, so he was naturally depressed.

If it weren't for the fact that Wei Tao's relationship was sufficient, if he didn't give any guidance at this time, I'm afraid Cao Xing wouldn't even see him at all.

"What can I do? Even if there is no danger of the Huns, but the border customs are fierce and difficult to surrender, what should I do? ”

Wei Tao let out a long sigh.

"Tao is really helpless, please hand it over to me."

This time Wei Tao also gave a big gift, although Cao Xing was also a little greedy, but he was not the one who crossed the river and demolished the bridge, hearing Wei Tao's sigh, he also frowned and thought about it.

"There it is!"

After a while, Cao Xuan said suddenly.

"This may be unsolvable to others, but it may not be impossible for you."

"Please also ask the general for advice."

Wei Tao immediately got up and bowed respectfully to Cao Xing.

"In fact, it is not incomprehensible that this adult is like this, and the people's livelihood in the state is withering, and he can't afford to support so many soldiers, if Ziyu can support the soldiers by himself, as long as it is within his own control, then the adult will not allow it."

Wei Tao could only smile bitterly for a moment, this thing is indeed able to be done by himself.

There is a cost to raise soldiers, and how much money and food is distributed on the roster, so there is naturally a matter of empty salary.

However, Ding Yuan had already counted the number of people with the help of the previous school martial arts exercises, and basically put an end to empty salaries, and now he has further reduced salaries.

And the method given by Cao Xing is to raise money by himself, so that he can raise soldiers without spending a grain and a silver from the state government, even if it is Ding Yuan, he must be the first to agree.

As for those people who are quite Wei Tao's private soldiers, it doesn't matter.

After all, the number of people is not large, which family does not have such a number?

"Thank you for the general's guidance, although the Wei family has little assets, I'm afraid it is difficult to let Tao be so autonounous, and this matter still needs to be thought through."

After saying goodbye from Cao Xing's mansion, Wei Tao was very depressed.

With Wei Tao's identity, it is naturally impossible to see Ding Yuan, who is a thorn in history, and now Cao Xing's words are basically Wei Tao's only way.

If you really only take so many people out of Yanmen Pass, it will really be sent to death, I'm afraid that as soon as these words come out, then the old party and a few of them are unwilling.

Although it is impossible to ask to see Ding Yuan, Wei Tao still asked Ding Yuan for instructions according to the procedure, and before going to see Cao Xuan, Wei Tao had actually made a decision in his heart.

There was no response, but there was no reprimand, and it was obvious that Ding Yuan had acquiesced in the matter.

Hiring people is not an easy task, especially in situations like these.

Fortunately, Wei Tao was not in a hurry and just returned to the camp, first making his deployment stable.

As soon as he returned to the camp, Wei Tao found that a lot of people had gathered in a corner of the camp at this time.

This is a military camp, you must know that the Ludao military camp has the rules of the military camp, and it was impossible to see such a gathering in the past.

But now the situation is different, except for Gao Shun, who is still leading the trapping camp, everyone else is placed on top of their positions.

And elite veterans, including many generals, resigned after receiving rewards, so now all disciplines in the barracks are sloppy.

It was only a few days later, and the entire barracks were relaxed.

"Is the state army going to be abolished? But not necessarily, otherwise how will Ding Yuan compete with Dong Zhuo in the future? ”

Shaking his head secretly, Wei Tao would not have paid attention to such a thing, but he didn't know what to do for a while, so he just leaned over at will.

"What do you want to do?"

What Wei Tao didn't expect was that as soon as he approached, he heard a familiar voice, Zhang Liao.

"Humph! Speaking of which, this time you also followed the raid on the Huns? It's just a good thing for you to catch up, and it is said that you can still come back intact, which is really good luck. Oh yes! You kid got some rewards this time, right, why don't you take them out and treat us to a meal? ”

Listening to the unceremonious voice inside, Wei Tao knew that he was afraid that things were not so simple, so he immediately pushed through the crowd and squeezed into it.

If it were someone else, it would be dissatisfied, but this is a barracks.

However, Wei Tao is now a little famous in the Bingzhou army, and almost everyone knows about the two Huns in a row before the battle, and the most important military exploits of the people in the army naturally dare not compete with Wei Tao.

Entering the inner circle, Wei Tao found that Zhang Liao was very embarrassed at this time, and more than a dozen people surrounded him, looking at Zhang Liao was also very embarrassed.

"What's going on here?"

Wei Tao frowned slightly, and did not step forward immediately, but turned to the soldier next to him and asked.
