Guan Yu nodded and continued: "You are familiar with the affairs of Guanzhong, and you have experience in governing the county, I hope you can assist Chen Zhoumu to discuss affairs, and give him more valuable opinions and suggestions!" ”

"General rest assured, I know my mission and tasks, and I will help and assist Chen Zhoumu!" Du Yi then promised.

Guan Yu turned around and told Zhang Ji: "This time, let Brother Tai go to Xiliang to take office, I don't know if Brother Tai can understand!" ”

"You and I have a brotherhood, my brother is convinced of your character, I will go wherever my brother asks me to go, my brother will naturally not treat me badly when he is in power now, but I don't know anything about my brother, I have stayed in Feng Yi for many years and am so familiar with the situation of Sanfu, why don't you let me continue to stay in Sanfu and go to Xiliang to take office? Could it be that brothers don't trust brothers? Zhang Ji asked tentatively.

Guan Yu smiled after hearing this: "Brother Wei is really smart, but only half of what he said is right, I don't suspect that I don't need to use people to use people, let Brother Ren go to Xiliang to take office, this is also due to the importance of Xiliang, the importance of Sanfu is self-evident, Xiliang is equally important, this is the rear base of the virtuous brother, let Brother Wei go to Xiliang to take office is also based on this, the world knows that Brother Lu Dao's political achievements are the first in Sanfu, and it is logical for such an excellent achievement to be promoted to Yongzhou Mu, But have you ever thought that there are too few talents like Brother Wei today, there are only a handful, and the talent of the brother can take on a big responsibility, whether it is placed in Xiliang or Yongzhou, it is not an exaggeration, but the most urgent thing at the moment is that there is a lack of talents like Brother Ren in Xiliang, and there is no talent who can take on a heavy responsibility alone, only Brother Tai can take on this big responsibility, and there are still talents in the land of Sanfu who can take office, I vigorously promoted Du Ji is to value him to be more familiar with the local situation and experience, so I promoted him to a leadership position to govern Sanfu, In this way, the situation of shortage of talents in the three auxiliary places can be opened, and Brother Tai can also carry out work when he goes to Xiliang to take office. In this way, the unsustainable situation between the two places is solved, can this explanation be understood? Of course, Brother Tai can also be understood as my distrust of Brother Ren, and I am afraid that Brother Tai will continue to stay in Sanfu to become bigger and stronger! ”

"Hahaha、、、、、、 brother can understand you! No matter what you ask your brother to do, you will go all out, and you understand what you said for your brother, that is, there is no talent in Xiliang, and you can go to Xiliang to take up your post. The land of Sanfu can be taken care of by Du Ji, so that the problems of both places are solved! Zhang said.

Guan Yu sighed: "Actually, I also want Brother Wei to continue to take care of Sanfu, but at the moment, Xiliang is indeed no one who can succeed him, and my brother's bitter brother must understand!" In the future, if there is a chance, I will let my brother come back to Sanfu! ”

"Is it a brother who is greedy for wealth and nobility, I will make a meritorious contribution to Xiliang when I go to Xiliang, and make Xiliang the second Feng Yi!" Zhang Ji said.

Guan Yu praised after hearing this: "Brother Tai's words are uplifting, I have already arranged manpower over there, Brother Tai is the number one decision-maker, but we must do a good job of unity!" ”

"Brother Xian, rest assured, I have been able to achieve such achievements for so many years, relying on the strength of everyone!" Zhang Ji continued.

After arranging. Guan Yu led everyone back to Chang'an after eating in Zheng County, and in Chang'an, Guan Yu led the team to personally practice for Zhang Ji and Jia Xu, and the two said goodbye to Guan Yu and went to Xiliangkai

In Chang'an, Guan Yu held a meeting in Yongzhou, the meeting was attended by the newly promoted officials and generals, Guan Yu put forward a request at the meeting, Guan Yu said that everyone said: "This time everyone is promoted to a new post, one is the need of the situation, the other is the importance and trust of everyone, and I loyally hope that everyone will make contributions in the new post." Guanzhong is the main agricultural production area in China, with a solid agricultural foundation. However, in recent years, agriculture has been greatly damaged by the war, and the top priority at the moment is to strive to restore production, strengthen the construction of agricultural infrastructure, and strive to restore the status of agriculture. There is a saying that 'brothers work together to break the tendons', everyone should do a good job of unity like brothers in Guanzhong this time, and cherish the friendship between each other as much as they cherish their eyes. ”

Guan Yu put forward hopes and requirements for several people who stayed in Guanzhong, Guan Yu believed that these people could do a good job in Guanzhong, Guan Yu finished speaking, Chen Gong as the pastor of Yongzhou first made a statement: "General Guan from the height of the overall strategy and the importance of Guanzhong put forward requirements and hopes for the future work in Yongzhou. The angle of the position is high, the weight of concern, and pointed out the direction of the future development of Guanzhong, put forward hope for the team of Yongzhou, bit by bit all reveal the ardent hope for us, the next step we must follow General Guan's instructions to Yongzhou, the affairs of Guanzhong will be done well, strive to solve the problem of agricultural production in Guanzhong, strive to improve the agricultural production in Guanzhong, restore the damaged farmland and water conservancy facilities in Guanzhong as soon as possible, make it play a role as soon as possible, focus on repairing the urban defense reinforcement of several cities, and prosper the economy of Guanzhong! ”

After Chen Gong finished speaking, Du Yi also made a statement: "General Guan has poured a lot of effort into the cause of Guanzhong, and this time he will promote the contemptible people to the leadership position, and he will definitely live up to the trust of General Guan and strive to do a good job in Guanzhong. Try your best to assist Chen Zhoumu to do things well! ”

Immediately afterwards, General Anxi Gao Shun also made a statement: "Resolutely support General Guan's decision!" General Guan has put forward requirements and hopes for the personnel and work of Yongzhou, and we must conscientiously abide by General Guan's instructions, handle the affairs of Guanzhong well, make efforts to solve the problem of urban defense in the Guanzhong area, strive to improve the defense capability of the city in Guanzhong, and vigorously develop the tuntian fields with the army and the people, so that the army can actively participate in local construction and restore agriculture in Guanzhong! Consolidate the city of Guanzhong! Do a good job of solidarity and mutual assistance, so that Guanzhong can once again achieve prosperity and strength! Strive to be at the forefront of other places! ”

The three of them all made a statement, Guan Yu held an unprecedented meeting in Guanzhong, this form has never been before, of course, this era will not exist, this is Guan Yu learned in modern times before he was reborn, carefully designed in accordance with the modern form, the appointed personnel made a statement This is also arranged by Guan Yu in advance, this is a form, it is a form that he strongly admires after taking on the leadership, this time it was mentioned, Guan Yu felt that this form was very useful. In the future, it will be promoted in this form, and this system will be inherited and developed

After Guan Yu arranged the affairs of Yongzhou, he took his wife and Ma Teng, Ma Chao, Pang De, Xu Huang and others to return to Luoyang with an army of 100,000 people under the escort of eighteen warriors, which has been four months, that is to say, he has been away from Luoyang for more than four months, and at this time it has entered the deep winter, and the time of the westward expedition is still autumn. However, Guan Yu's heart is still a lot brighter, the Western Expedition can be described as a victory, the arrangements for Xiliang and Yongzhou have been decided, Guan Yu's heart has also fallen to the ground, he has arranged all the talents around him in these two places, there are civil servants and military generals, this is his treasure!

Now there is only one general left by his side, Xu Huang, and there is no one strategist, Ma Teng, Ma Chao and Pang De have just been newly dressed. As for whether he is sincere and obedient, he will continue to observe, but fortunately, he has returned to Luoyang, he Guan Yu still has a lot of talents in Luoyang, and he still has a lot of things to solve and coordinate when he returns to the imperial court, and there is still a long way to go. After all, he's been away for so long.

However, it is said that when Guan Yu was marching westward, Cao Cao in the east and Yuan Shao entrenched in Hebei started a fierce battle. The two sides won and lost each other, and held each other for two months. Neither side could advance, at this time Cao Cao's side reported that Cao Cao's father Cao Song was killed by Tao Qian, the Taishou of Xuzhou, Cao Cao was immediately furious when he heard this, and decided to personally lead the army to conquer Tao Qian, leaving the generals Xiahou Dun, Liu Yan, and Yu Ban to guard the white horse to reject Yuan Shao, and he personally raised the army to conquer Tao Qian.

Cao Cao's father was originally a great official in the Han Dynasty: Taiwei. Later, he was forced to retire from the position of lieutenant by the little emperor. Cao Cao's father, the official of the Taiwei, was bought with money, and it cost 100 million copper coins. But it didn't hurt much (how much is this guy greedy?). ）。 The gold and silver left in the house are still in the sea. Saving money is nothing more than enjoyment, but the consumption environment living in Langya at that time was too poor, the streets of Luoyang were burned by a fire in Dong Zhuo's spring, the vast land was really clean, and the infrastructure of entertainment venues could not be restored in a moment, and it had become a waste capital. After retiring, Cao Song decisively decided to change places to spend money. Go to Yanzhou to find your son Cao Cao!?

In the third year of the first peace, Cao Song and Cao Cao's brother Cao De took more than 100 cars of luggage and gold and silver treasures from Langya to Yanzhou, which was too ostentatious, but it is understandable that now that he sees his son Cao Cao as a veritable strong master Shengzu, who will be like this if he changes, as for causing trouble? With Cao Cao's military strength and prestige at this time, some thieves, dare to provoke?

The gold and silver treasure parade led by Cao Song swaggered all the way, and drove towards Yanzhou, don't you say, Cao Cao's signboard is more effective than the arrow of the green forest scoop, and he just knocked on the bang and shouted "safe and sound". The old man didn't take it seriously, and he took his beautiful concubine all the way to the mountains and rivers, and he was very happy.

When the parade reached Hua County, the junction of Langya State and Taishan County, which was under Tao Qian's jurisdiction, Tao Qian's border guards saw such a big piece of fat meat, and they did not hesitate to take off their military uniforms and play the role of robbers. The head of the army guarding this place is Zhang Min, the commander under the leadership of Tao Qian, and Tao Qian has made a special instruction in advance to warmly receive Cao Cao's father. That Zhang Min had a bad idea and led his troops to cross the border and attack the hotel where Cao Song was staying. Cao Song hurriedly dug a hole in the backyard and escaped, not wanting his concubine to be too beautiful (fat), so he was in a dilemma at the entrance of the cave. The officials and bandits rushed to the backyard, and Cao Song was killed on the spot. At the same time, Cao Song's youngest son and Cao Cao's younger brother Cao De also died.

Cao Cao heard the news like five thunderbolts, as the saying goes, the biggest hatred in the world is "the hatred of killing the father, the hatred of taking the wife", how can Cao Cao not report the deep hatred of such a common hatred? Immediately the general personally mentioned the army to conquer Tao Qian and go, Cao Cao recalled Cao Hong in Nanyang to help, the previous Yuan Shu and Cao Ren, Cao Hong fled to Huainan after the defeat of the fierce battle, Cao Ren, Cao Hong won Nanyang, so Nanyang, Dongjun, Yanzhou, Qingzhou are all Cao Cao's gains, Cao Cao and the general Xu Chu is unprecedentedly strong

This Xu Chu is eight feet tall, with a waist of ten girths, a majestic appearance, a resolute face, a divine light, majestic At that time, seeing the Yellow Turban Army besieging his hometown, he frowned slightly and looked at the outside of the fortress repaired by the family, the dense crowd of people were the remnants of the Yellow Turban soldiers, besieging his hometown for a few days, the food was gone, and the people in the fortress were very tired after many battles, of course, the hero who was the leader was also very tired. Looking at the dense Yellow Turban soldiers outside, which were about twenty or thirty thousand people, Xu Chu saw this and asked the people of other clans to place the stones in the four directions of the fortress, Xu Chu looked at the four roads, listened to the eight directions, and saw that there was danger in that direction. Quickly rushed over, picked up the stone, and the divine light in his eyes suddenly released, and with a whoosh, the stone in his hand flew into the distance like a cannonball, hitting a few unlucky ghosts, and the people who were hit died on the spot, and the blood flowed all over the ground, and each stone passed through several people, and the scene was very terrifying, so the Yellow Turban thieves here did not dare to attack this gate of the fortress, and the other directions were in danger. Xu Chu concocted one of the other four directions and the thieves did not dare to attack, and the stones thrown by Xu Chu not only killed everyone in the threshing world, but even their siege equipment was destroyed, but after a long time of robbery, these Yellow Turban thieves have accumulated a lot of equipment to rush the city.

In this way, 5,000 thieves had died, but there were too many Yellow Turban thieves with a total of more than 20,000, so only a quarter of them were killed, and I only heard Xu Chu say that it was like a way to retreat the enemy soldiers. Otherwise, there is not enough food in the fortress, and my people will slowly starve to death. And now that the stones are gone, the bows and arrows are gone, Xu Chu's eyes flashed, he was pondering, thinking of a way, and suddenly Xu Chu thought of how he didn't use his specialty. Use your strength to scare them, and they should be afraid and retreat. Xu Chu analyzed his situation, he fought for several days in a row, he was very tired, and the food in the fortress was only enough to eat today. If you don't return them or get food today, the relatives in the clan will starve, thinking of this, Xu Chu's eyes showed a resolute light, so he decided to pretend to negotiate with them, and exchange cattle for their food, although he doesn't like to pretend, he is a man, but he can only pretend to negotiate for the sake of his homeland. So Lang Sheng shouted like the leader of the Yellow Turban thieves below, and said that there is no food in our people, and I am willing to exchange cattle for food. The thief on the other side was afraid of Xu Chu because of Xu Chu's high force, so he replied that I had this intention, and I could change it in the afternoon

Xu Chu waited for two or three hours, and saw the leader of the thieves escorting the grain slowly and stopping outside the fortress. I saw that the clansmen on Xu Chu's side were tied to two strong and huge prime-aged cattle. The serious joy of the leader of the thief soldier flashed, this thief soldier saw such a fat cow, the value must be very high, so his heart blossomed, and then looked at Xu Chu's side, only to see Xu Chu next to the two cows, a cow is estimated to touch more than 500 catties, a big fat pig is about 300 catties smaller than this physique, this big yellow cow 500 catties is an underestimate, but it is also more conservative. I saw a person from the clan suddenly untie the rope of the ox, and then the clansman ran back, probably these two big cattle were hungry for two days, and saw the grain and grass not far away, and wanted to eat them to relieve the hunger of the two days, only to see the two cows running like crazy like thieves, those thieves and everyone were startled, but the cow ran a few steps and then stopped abruptly, everyone on the scene was surprised, how could this be, but something happened, and the people present were stunned, This is the leader of the thief soldiers who is even more frightened, it is estimated that he thinks of leaving quickly, and he will not dare to provoke this evil star next time, it is really terrible.

And Xu Chu's previous situation was extremely tired, but there was still some physical strength, so I saw Xu Chu grab the tails of the two cows with both hands, and walked backwards, only to see those cows running forward desperately, but they couldn't run, and saw the traces of being trampled by the cow on the ground were several inches deep, and roared again and again, but still Xu Chu pulled back, and Xu Chu's two hands were open, just like when the Shaolin Temple monk lifted the bucket, so it was more laborious, if the two cows were too close they would trample on each other, and the cows were not too stupid, So run on both sides, so Xu Chu opened his two hands, and the bull market ran side by side, so Xu Chu opened his forearms with both hands and bent slightly to pull the cow, and walked backwards 200 steps, and the thief was already frightened. Then the thief leader led more than 10,000 of his men to run back, and swore that he would never dare to attack again, as a result, several surrounding counties were afraid of Xu Chu, and look at Xu Chu's state at this time, still majestic, energetic, although the physical consumption is huge, after pulling the cow is still relaxed, Xu Chu spit out a breath of turbidity, the thief soldiers finally retreated, Xu Chu thought that even if I go down desperately, even if I don't die, but these of my fellow clans can't do it, Bo can't abandon them, I want to tide over the difficulties with them, and guard my homelandMy fortress, my strength has been partially depleted, but it is not yet at the limit, but I have to eat a few good meals and sleep well to recover the physical exertion of the days I have been trapped in. So Xu Chu instructed some things to the people of the family, and then went to eat, and then went to rest after eating (to be continued......
