Chapter 137 Thirsty for Talent
Dong Zhuo heard Jia Xu say the word "execution", and immediately collapsed to the ground, his old face was like ashes.
The people who are like mountains and seas are cheering, their hatred for Dong Zhuo is unforgettable, and they can't wait to rush up and bite him, almost all of them have been mutilated by Dong Zhuo, more or less, the family is ruined, and the flesh and blood are separated.
Facing the excited crowd, Dong Zhuo was at a loss, and the scenes of the past appeared in front of him.
A chic and extraordinary young man, holding a three-foot sword, wandering in the West Liang, good at charity, making friends from all over the world, gradually, more and more people follow him, that time, so beautiful!
It was his wish to enter the court as an official, and later, he really got his wish, from a ranger, to a court official, and climbed step by step to the position of Xiliang Taishou.
During this period of time, he treated his subordinates well, rewarded and punished, and every Xiliang officer and soldier who followed him was dead set on him.
The Yellow Turban Rebellion, he was ordered to suppress it, and after repeated military exploits, he became more and more dissatisfied with the status quo, and his ambition suddenly became greater, wanting to ascend to the throne that reigned over the world.
colluded with He Jin, entered Luoyang, killed the ten permanent servants, abolished the emperor without authorization, lawlessness, and did all kinds of evil
The scenes of the past flashed in Dong Zhuo's mind like a slide, it turned out that he was to blame for all this!
Two lines of clear tears fell, Dong Zhuo suddenly woke up a little before death came, but it was impossible to turn back what happened, and those who died because of him would not forgive him!
"Father-in-law! Cloth to send you on your way! Lu Bu strode behind Dong Zhuo and said softly, Fang Tian's halberd pointed directly at the sky. The cold light continues. Murderous aura pervades the world.
"Woo woo——!" Dong Zhuo whimpered. The miserable state is fully revealed.
Dong Zhuo, a generation of heroes in the late Han Dynasty will come to an end, and what killed him was ambition, greed, and the way of troubled times!
Li Ru, Dong Yue and others knelt on the ground, their faces like ashes. Behind them stood an imposing executioner.
"It's noon, execution!" Jia Xu waved coldly.
"Let's go!" Lu Bu sighed silently, Fang Tian's halberd was ruthlessly waved, and he personally executed Dong Zhuo, which could not only reflect Lu Bu's determination to kill his relatives in righteousness, but also show that he Lu Bu was different from the past.
"Poof——!
Dong Zhuo's prominent eyeballs reflected the last scene in the world.
"Well done! This old thief should have died a long time ago! ”
"Wait for the righteousness to kill your relatives! Well done! ”
"Wait! Warm! ”
Some of the scouts who were mixed in with the people immediately shouted and led public opinion, pushing Lu Bu's reputation and prestige to a new peak.
Although Lu Bu doesn't care about reputation, he has a good reputation. It will definitely help him develop.
Lu Bu killed Dong Zhuo with his own hands, and slowly put away Fang Tian's halberd. After walking away, he waved his hand and ordered someone to clean up Dong Zhuo's body and prepare to bury him.
"I'm going to crush this old thief to ashes!"
Suddenly, a big man broke through the soldiers' defense line and pounced on Dong Zhuo in a pool of blood, everyone was stunned by his actions and did not rush up to stop him.
The big man threw himself on Dong Zhuo's corpse, raised his fists, and desperately smashed Dong Zhuo's poor corpse, crying and crying, with a sad expression.
"Old thief! You ruined my family and killed my father and wife! Father! The child is not filial, and he can't avenge him with his own hands, so he can only eat his flesh and blood raw, which can be regarded as revenge for you! ”
The big man shouted miserably.
"Avenge our family!"
The people shouted and broke through the soldiers' defenses, they all had a deep hatred for Dong Zhuo, even if he died, they couldn't let it go!
This happened so suddenly that the soldiers didn't have time to stop it.
Lu Bu silently looked at the ravaged corpse of Dong Zhuo, and sighed, it seems that even if Dong Zhuo is found a place to bury it, it will be dug up and divided, forget it, if it can resolve the grievances of the people, let Dong Zhuo's corpse play.
The soldiers could not stop the agitated people, so they had to retreat.
Lu Bu, Jia Xu and others returned to the mansion to discuss military affairs.
Now half of Guanzhong has been pacified by Lü Bu, Lü Bu is thinking about developing the economy, accumulating grain in the fields, training soldiers, and preparing for the capture of Xiliang and Hanzhong.
Building an invincible cavalry corps has always been Lu Bu's biggest idea, and now that he has his own strength, of course all this must be done, and it must be done quickly.
Throughout the history of the development of cavalry, saddles, stirrups, and hooves are naturally indispensable for the necessary equipment of cavalry.
The next day, Lü Bu ordered all the blacksmiths in Chang'an City to be gathered, and then selected the outstanding people, and then handed over the drawings he had drawn to them, ordering them to make the best saddles, stirrups, and horseshoes.
These people didn't know what Lu Dao was used for, but they were afraid of Lu Bu's murderous name, so they had to obey, but fortunately, Lu Bu was not a bad person, not only paid them wages, but also gave them three meals a day.
It's just that they are strictly forbidden to leak these things, and tell them that this is a secret in the army, if it is leaked, it will be connected to the nine clans, and these people will be scared of their mouths after death, and they will desperately build the equipment that Lu Bu said.
In addition to building these cavalry equipment, some large siege equipment, ladders, thunderbolts, etc., are also being built.
These things were arranged in an orderly manner, but Lu Bu was worried about another matter.
Talent!
In the name of the Son of Heaven, the book was released to the world, and more than half a month has passed, but not a single wise man has come to vote, only some pedantic people who want to cheat and eat and drink.
When Lu Bu treated them and asked them how they should pacify the world, everyone's answer was very standard.
Lu Bu heard that they kept praising themselves, and his heart was depressed, as if he was fighting the world, only one person was enough, so Lu Bu no longer listened to their nonsense, and after eating and drinking, he sent them all away.
Gradually, Lu Bu also lost confidence in seeking talents, since the road of summoning wise men in the name of the Son of Heaven was not going to work. Then grab it. With his own knowledge of this era. In the future, every time I hit a place, I searched for talents.
After not sleeping all night, Lu Bu turned over and lit the lamp and picked up the pen.
Guo Jia, a ghost talent, is now working on an errand under Yuan Shao's account, it is said that he is not very good, and he often sighs that he does not meet the master, and he is not treated well by Yuan Shao and a group of villains. According to history, he will go to Cao Cao in the future and become a big force for Cao Cao.
Lu Bu thought about it, even if he went to rob it, judging from his current situation, it would be better for a long time.
The most important thing is that most of the strategists and good generals of the Three Kingdoms era were outside the Guan, such as the territory of Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, and there were many wise men in the south, Jingzhou and Jiangdong.
Guanzhong. Xiliang, or Hanzhong. The few are pitiful, and even if they are, they are now caught or enveloped by themselves.
So, Lü Bu had no choice but to take the initiative again and write letters to those wise men, in which he wrote how much he admired him, hoping that he could come to Guanzhong to help him and revive the Han dynasty.
Although this method is absurd and ridiculous, it is extremely naïve, but it also shows that Lu Bu is eager to seek talent at this time.
The first one is written to Guo Jia.
I don't know if that ghost drunkard will be moved when he sees this letter, and then run over to take refuge in himself.
Lu Bu thought with a wry smile.
The second is Xun Yu, who is also an official in Yuan Shao's office, and will soon go to Cao Cao.
The third, Xun Yu's nephew, Xun You, was also an official here with Dong Zhuo in the past, and later wanted to assassinate Dong Zhuo, but was reported to be convicted and imprisoned, and it was not so much, Dong Zhuo later released him, and he left Guanzhong and worked in Jingzhou.
In history, Cao Cao welcomed the Son of Heaven to Xudu, wrote him a letter, and recruited him to become an official in the court, and he gladly accepted the order.
From this point of view, there is a great hope that he will come to Guanzhong.
The approach is naïve, Lu Bu is also holding on to the psychology of luck, casting the fishing net, if he can catch one or two big fish, even if it is a shrimp with a little ability, it is good.
Even Lu Su and Lu Bu in Jiangdong wrote a letter, which can be said to be almost crazy if they do not seek talent.
Lu Bu looked at the dozens of letters that had been written, let out a long sigh, and suddenly thought of the Zhuge family living in seclusion in Xiangyang.
Although Zhuge Liang is young, his elder brother Zhuge Jin is not young, and he still has a relationship with Pang Tong, who has traveled the world, and I don't know if Pang Tong will come to join him after he completes his studies?
So, Lu Bu wrote a letter of admiration to Zhuge Jin, hoping that he could move his family to Guanzhong to help him.
In the end, Lu Bu thought of Chen Gong, the strategist who followed Lu Bu to the guillotine in history, and Lu Bu's only strategist.
Now he is an official under Chen Liutaishou Zhang Miao, forget it, write a letter to him too, I don't know if he will follow him as always in another time and space.
After doing all this, Lu Bu laughed dumbly, he was really crazy.
Cao Cao's five major strategists, except for one Cheng Yu who didn't write to him himself, the other three have all written, Jia Xu is already around and doesn't need to worry about it, if Cao Cao knows that he digs into his corner so hard, I'm afraid he will be so angry that he vomits blood.
Dozens of letters were sent out, and Lu Bu began his morning exercise.
If you want to keep the name of the first fierce general of the Three Kingdoms, you can't have a trace of slackness, only keep exercising every day.
"My lord! General Zhang ordered a letter! "A pro-army walked in.
"Oh, Wen Yuan, what can he do, has he already swept the north of Guanzhong?" Lu Bu came to be interested.
The pro-army took out the letter and handed it to Lu Bu.
Lu Bu opened the letter and read it hurriedly, his brows furrowed.
"Yang Feng also has generals under him? And this Zhang Yang, I remember that the relationship between him and Lu Bu is not very good in history, Cao Cao and Lu Bu fought fiercely in Yanzhou, and he also sent troops to echo, so he was killed by his generals, but I didn't expect to unite with Yang Feng to resist me in this time and space? And this Zhang Ji, I thought he had followed the trajectory of history and ran to Jingzhou, but I didn't expect to stay in Guanzhong. Hehe, it's really interesting, the three parties are united. ”
Zhang Liao led an elite army to attack Hongnong, easily destroyed Hongnong's Duan Xuan, when he further marched into Puguan, encountered Hanoi Taishou Zhang Yang's sniper, entrenched in Shangdang and other places Yang Feng, Zhang Ji have killed, Yang Feng has a tiger general, can fight with Zhang Liao into a draw.
Zhang Liao's strength was weak, and after several failed attacks, he turned to Lu Bu for help. (To be continued......)
