—181 A.D.——

Zhao Yun speculated why the two masters wanted to let themselves travel down the mountain at this time.

He has not yet been crowned at this time, and he has not fully integrated what he has learned, although he has been able to defeat ordinary good players in martial arts, but if he meets a real master, he will still be defeated - such as Master Tong Yuan.

It stands to reason that he should practice for a few more years, and then go out when he can be on his own.

But in that case, it's hard to see the "truth", right?

The world will be in chaos, and the two masters have made this conclusion more than once when they talked, the emperor is greedy for money, his relatives are involved in politics, the eunuchs are in power, the kings are ambitious, and the family supports the army and is self-respecting, these are all trivial things (?). ）。

The real problem is that the imperial court lacks the force that can deter Xiaoxiao, it is just a plague that leads to the temporary failure of Luoyang's decree, those who surrendered as early as the former Han Dynasty, and the Qiang people who have no roots and no foundation dare to take advantage of the situation, and the Liangzhou garrison not only has no power to fight back, such as Bian Zhang, Han Sui and other Han generals are directly from the thieves.

The Fifth Army Captain and the Knights of the Three Rivers urgently recruited by the imperial court sounded huge in scale and superior in strength, and their successful defeat of the rebels proved this - even if the "Fire Meteor" of the "Nanhua Fairy" was put aside, they were quite capable of fighting.

Well, where is the army of the imperial court itself? Do what?

They are "guarding Luoyang".

If the soldiers who fought and died on the front line knew that there was a "friendly army" behind them, they would not know how they would feel.

In fact, according to rumors, this forbidden army completely controlled by the "Ten Standing Servants" was well-equipped and superior in combat power, but it almost never left Luoyang, and it was even rumored that Wang Yue, the "Sword Saint", had contributed to its construction.

Therefore, the complete distrust of the imperial court, or His Majesty the Emperor, other than the Si Li, is the most serious problem.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that successive emperors have collapsed because of childlessness, and the successors are elected to the throne by relatives according to their interests, although most of these relatives will be unlucky when the emperor wants to take power when he is an adult, but it does not prevent some people from moths to fight the fire.

Speaking of Zhao Yun's travels, if in another three or five years, he goes out with a "promising youth" rather than a "half-grown teenager", he will only encounter all kinds of co-optation, trying to find the right way to govern the world? At that point, Zhao Yun may find that almost everyone who recruits him is very much in favor of his "strategy for governing the world" – even if it has not yet been summed up.

"Master ordered me to go down the mountain to observe the 'heroes' who shined in the Liangzhou Rebellion, and see what they think of the general situation in the world." In the end, Zhao Yunru said to Zhao Liangfu.

This is the speech technique taught by Master Zhang Jiao, telling the truth, and there is no concealment, but a slight change of order, will not show the slightly arrogant purpose of "looking for a way to govern the country".

"Oh, it should be so," Zhao Liangfu responded: "Wu'er has outstanding skills, if he was born ten years early, he will definitely be able to overshadow all those generals and captains in this battle of Xiliang, then, first go and assess who is suitable to be an official, and wait for the next time the Hu people join the Kou, the puppet king rebels, or another Wang Mang, it is the time for you to make contributions." ”

It sounds like my father doesn't have much confidence that this big man will always be safe......

"My son heard that there will be a triumphant procession of the imperial court passing through the county in the near future, I don't know which general is in charge?" Zhao Yun didn't answer this sentence, but just asked about what he had heard before.

"It's the eldest son of the Gongsun family in Youzhou, Gongsun Zhan," it seems that because the news is very accurate, Zhao Liangfu replied without hesitation, "He led the cavalry to make great achievements in this battle, was named the cavalry captain, and returned to Youzhou to officially take office, and it seems that he has to go to Zhuo County on the way." ”

"Oh." Zhao Yun nodded, according to rumors, this person also seems to use a gun, but he can ask for advice.

"There are other Hedong and Henan knights rushed back to their hometowns, and most of the generals were promoted in situ, the son of the great Sinon, Cao Cao Cao Mengde seems to have the blue eyes of a nobleman, and was appointed as the prime minister of Jinan, and directly led the troops to take office." Zhao Liangfu pondered for another moment: "Oh, there is also Dong Zhuo, the commander of the Northwest Ranger, and Lu Bu, who is known as the 'unparalleled in the world' under him, who will stay in Liangzhou to stabilize the situation and wait for the imperial court to reward him...... The other generals were not very well-known, at least not the father had never heard of them. ”

"That's ......" Zhao Yun thought back to the terrain everywhere, and felt that he should be able to meet each other before they arrived at their destination, if it was on horseback...... Wait, can horses be brought into the "other world"?

"In addition, the 20,000 horses promised you by my father are still being prepared, and there are already more than 3,000, don't worry, when you decide to go out of the mountain, you will definitely be ready." Zhao Liangfu patted his chest vigorously and said.

"Thanks to my father's kindness, but the soldiers are not expensive, five thousand is enough, if there is more money and food for recruiting soldiers, it can be used to improve the weapons and armor of the original soldiers, training food." Zhao Yun had no choice but to persuade.

"Oh, that's right, the lord of the country has recently set up more and more taxes, and I don't know when there may be a 'private soldier number tax', my son is really smart." Zhao Liangfu said suddenly.

“…… Father praised. ”

————

Zhao Yun stayed at home for a few days to wait for Gongsun Zhan's procession to pass by, and then he found that he was starting to miss the "Martial Arts Pavilion".

First of all, his brother Zhao Feng, he gathered a group of half-grown teenagers of the same age out of nowhere, and after calling Zhao Yun out, he declared, "You see, Zhao Zilong is indeed my younger brother, I didn't lie to you." Then Zhao Yun had to find a way to prove that he was himself and demonstrate some "immortal methods".

Of course, there are immortal methods, but they can only select those who can use them to bluff this group of teenagers, and after being told the elders in the family, the adults with higher experience can come up with the "tricks", but they will not look down on the skills of the Zhao family to perform.

Then there is the mother, who moved a large list of daughters from Changshan acquaintances out of nowhere, and said that she would let Zhao Yun choose a daughter-in-law by herself...... He wasn't even fifteen yet! …… If you look at those records carefully, these girls from a certain family are also about this age, but the little girls who have just finished their lives say that they are "playful and cute" and "Hui Zhilanxin", forget it, what is the matter with "virtuous and virtuous" and "noble and elegant"?

Zhao Yun finally mixed up with the excuse of "not leaving the school yet, not talking about personal affairs". And decided to find a "correct way to govern the world" as soon as possible and participate in it, he didn't believe that there would be any lord who would pull the red line for his subordinates.

Finally, his father, Zhao Liangfu's approach was quite normal, he created a set of light armor for Zhao Yun on the grounds that "you must wear style when you go to see a big official", which is enough to fit and reserve space for his future growth.

But the trouble is that his father's aesthetics are very problematic, and after he heard that Zhao Yun's martial arts are called "Hundred Birds and Phoenix Spear", he specially instructed the blacksmith to add a bird beak to the helmet, and decorated the back of the armor with a phoenix tail feather-shaped decoration - this is not like a phoenix at all, but more like a peacock.

If Zhao Yun has made any obvious gains in the past few days, it is how to get in and out of that world and use it a little bit.

After picking up the weapons of the first cadre Ding Courtyard in the martial arts arena, Zhao Yun preliminarily judged that in those poems containing birds, there are words such as out, return, go, come, etc., or the end action is a horizontal or vertical chopping move, which can open the passage to that world, it has no impact on the people and things in "this world", and it cannot be seen, but as long as you walk over, you will instantly pass through and reach the opposite side.

For the items that Zhao Yun carried, the inanimate things had no effect, but other animals that tried, such as cats and dogs, chickens and ducks, or donkeys and horses, would fall into a deep sleep directly after entering that world, and perhaps the same would be true for people, but he didn't dare to try rashly.

In addition, Zhao Yun has a deeper understanding of what Master Zhang Jiao said, it is like "fluttering", and when going from "this life" to "another world", there will be an uncertain deviation in position, or one or two feet, or more than ten steps, but when he returns from "that world", it is extremely accurate.

In this case, it looks like two maps stacked on top of each other, the lower one is relatively stable, and the upper one is drifting with the wind, and they will only "coincide" when Zhao Yun's "nail" passes through and "nails" the two worlds together.

After thinking of this metaphor, Zhao Yun did not have a deeper understanding of the ghosts of the "Pavilion of Saints" and the "Pavilion of Martial Artists", but he was still far from the level of personally doing that kind of operation.

At present, apart from the fact that this kind of "crossing" can be used to get past the heavily guarded guards, Zhao Yun can't think of any places that can be used.

It's good to be able to take yourself by surprise in battle, but because it requires specific moves or moves, you often can't use them against opponents of the same or higher level, and you can't use them against those who are weaker than you, and it's even less necessary.

Perhaps, it can be stabbed with a single shot, and the head of the gun will disappear halfway, and when it reappears, it will be at the throat of the enemy? Zhao Yun seriously thought about the possibility of its realization, and found that there may actually be, but it is absolutely impossible to do it by himself.

In addition, as Gongsun Zhan's army gradually approached, Zhao Yun also learned about Gongsun Zhan from more and more detailed rumors.

In this rebellion, the real person who made a big contribution to Gongsun Zhan's department was his deputy general Liu Bei Liu Xuande, and the thousands of people he handed over to bring back to Youzhou were also given by their teacher Lu Zhi.

Others circulating in the market include Cao Cao, Cao Mengde, Yuan Shao, Yuan Benchu, Xun Chen, Xun Youruo, Xiahou Brothers, and a strange Jiangdong team that will inevitably count the wrong number of people.

However, the most commonly mentioned is Lu Bulu Fengxian, who stayed in Xiliang, and his "trapped camp", although I heard that he was defeated once by a special cavalry that escaped from the rebels, but the sentence "The will to fall into battle, there is death or life" is still quite catchy, so that some members of the Zhao family will jump out of such a sentence during training.

Finally, when Zhao Yun began to think about whether to leave first to avoid his overly enthusiastic parents and brothers, Gongsun Zhan's brigade arrived.
