In the barracks, Bai Tu greeted each of the generals' representatives in turn.

These grassroots generals, the highest is only Sima and partial generals of other departments, and most of them are school captains.

Say three and a half years ago...... Bai Tu is actually just a school captain, and a little further on is even more powerful - writing essays and five hundred articles.

But fate is just that......

Give people opportunities, but also give people responsibility.

When he arrived in front of Deng Dang, Bai Tu specially said to a young man behind him who looked like a tiger and a little clever at the same time: "En? This is Lu Meng who begged for the tiger and explored the tiger's den, right? ”

When Lu Meng saw that Bai Tu still recognized him, he suddenly became excited.

After all, even his brother-in-law was just a captain at this time, and it was said that ...... After the Chinese New Year, he was able to be promoted to a partial general, and he could just lead other departments by himself, and Lu Meng was even more nobody when he got the category of the Cheqi General's Mansion.

"The last general, Lu Meng, meet the lord!" Lu Meng said.

"Childish nonsense, it can't be true, it can't be true." Deng Dang immediately said modestly.

"General Deng doesn't have to be like this, it's a good thing to have ambitions...... Ziming, you also read some books when you were a teenager, right? After Bai Tu appeased Deng Dang, he continued to talk to Lu Meng.

Ziming is Lu Meng's cousin.

Seeing that Bai Tu still knew his words, Lu Meng became even more energetic, and said specially: "I have read it, but it's a pity...... I only awakened the military talisman from Chengji, and I also wanted to establish a career from Rong, so I begged my brother-in-law to take me into the army, and then I was busy with military affairs, so I neglected to study. He said with a regretful expression.

When Deng Dang heard this, he glared at him on the side - are you still busy with military affairs? It's not that you don't like to read, so that's the excuse!

"Don't you need to study to lead soldiers? This is not to let you go, but to let you read more about the truth in the book, as well as the art of war and history. Hou Huo, the champion of our Han Dynasty, went to illness, and he became a master of the art of war and a commander of a hundred victories without reading the book of war, but the champion Hou just didn't read the book of war, but he never stopped thinking when he used the army, combined with his own experience, so that when he marched and fought, he coincided with the art of war, and at the same time was not bound by the art of war. You are still young, and you should read more when you have time. Bai Tu persuaded him.

It seems that although the Lu family is not wealthy, at least the ancestors should be wide, otherwise they would not have read.

It's not that it's a white picture, but judging from Lu Meng's career route, he is a general who is good at learning.

Before the Battle of Chibi, when Lü Meng led the army alone, he could only fight Shanyue, and in large-scale battles, he was at most a vanguard, and he did not have the air cover of the commander-in-chief of the first army at all.

Later, it was Sun Quan who persuaded him to study, and when Zhou Yu died of serious illness and Lu Su became the governor, only two years later, Lu Meng surprised Lu Su.

Originally, Lu Su had the impression that Lu Meng was still the reckless man two years ago, but when Lu Meng was drinking, he said a set of things to him, although in the treatment of Jingzhou and Liu Bei's grand strategy, Lu Meng and Lu Su were diametrically opposed, but it also made Lu Su sigh that he was "not a recovering Wu Xia Ameng".

This is also the origin of the allusion to "Shibei three days, should be impressed......

Therefore, Bai Tu is now, and it can be regarded as a click on Lu Meng in advance.

When Lu Meng heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, "Lord, in fact, I like to read the most, but ...... I can't get in touch with the art of war, historical collections, and the like. ”

The art of war and history books are banned and monopolized, just as the production method of explosives and dangerous goods cannot be easily searched in later generations, and the Eastern Han Dynasty ...... There is no such thing as the Internet.

Although Confucianism and Taoism are prevalent now, if you really want to choose, the wealthy families will give up the monopoly first, but it will be the words of those saints, and the most want to cherish themselves are these more practical "forbidden books".

"That's a good question! In the future, these will not be a problem, and before being promoted or appointed, grass-roots officers will also have to go to Jinling for further study, and they will also be evaluated...... In addition to the required content, there will also be content you need in the Wanshi Bunkan. Bai Tu said.

Lu Meng was stunned when he heard this, originally he wanted to be clever and ask the lord for a book of soldiers, how did he expect it...... Is this going to be open to everyone?

"My lord, if everyone reads the book of soldiers, what is the difference between reading it and not reading it?" Lu Meng wondered.

"The book of war is not for you to read the book as a killer feature, but to teach you how to use the army to send generals, all the Confucian scholars in the world have read the Analects, why only Confucius sacrificial wine is the most understanding of Confucius? Some people have read the Pentateuch for decades, why don't they understand the truth as clearly as Wang Su. Bai Tu gave two excellent examples, which made Lu Mengmao pause.

Deng Dang on the side, but his thoughts moved-what did the lord just say? "Send generals" ...... use soldiers?

Seeing Bai Tu, he seemed to be very optimistic about the appearance of his brother-in-law, Deng Dang's heart was hot, and he was about to take this opportunity to recommend Lu Meng to the army directly under the Cheqi General's Mansion and had more opportunities to make meritorious contributions, when he suddenly heard someone report: "Lord, there is an important military situation from Nanyang!" ”

Seeing the herald, the fast horse slid to the side, stopped the horse in a drifting side position, and then hurriedly came down to deliver the letter to Bai Tu, Deng Dang had to swallow the words back first, and at the same time he was also suffering from gains and losses in his heart, I don't know if Bai Tu can still think of Lu Meng, a nobody, after missing this opportunity.

As soon as Bai Tu heard that it was Nanyang's military situation, he immediately understood that it should be Zhu Zhi's news.

After all, Bai Tu did not use troops to Nanyang at this time, and even if Nanyang magically took the initiative to attack Yiyang, it should be Chen Zhi who sent military information from Yiyang.

There is only one thing that can come from Nanyang - Bai Tu sent Zhu Zhi to Nanyang a month ago to lobby Zhang Xiu!

In the battle of Wancheng, Zhang Xiu made Cao Cao understand that after the wife control did not end well, he nominally returned to Liu Biao's rule, but ...... Liu Biao's control over Zhang Xiu in the Wancheng area has become lower and lower.

Bai Tu originally wanted to persuade Zhang Xiu to switch to himself, so that Jingzhou would open the door in front of Bai Tu, which could be regarded as half-entering the hands of the general's mansion, and Cao Cao would be even more uncomfortable.

Therefore, Zhu Zhi was sent as an envoy - Zhu Zhi, a child of the Danyang Zhu family, who was born in one of the four surnames in Jiangdong, has a very close relationship with the Sun family, and Sun Quan's filial piety is what he raised.

At this time, he had also joined the Che Cavalry General's Mansion, and Bai Tu heard that he had eloquence, so he was entrusted with lobbying Zhang Xiu.

However, Zhu Zhi sent people back at this time, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, both sent people to Wancheng, and Zhang Xiu was waiting for the price to sell.

Although Zhang Xiu's strength is not the first or second line from the perspective of the princes, it is located in the central and northern parts of Nanyang, Wancheng and Suicheng, which is really a key place, and it is the gateway to the north and south, and it also has the capital to be sold at a price.

In the matter of Wancheng, Bai Tu allowed Zhu Zhi to go through the military intelligence channel, but ...... It's not an emergency military situation, it can only be regarded as "important", but it's also a rapid delivery of a fast horse combined with a signal tower, which is faster than directly passing from the Chengji Mansion.

At this time, Zhu Zhi wanted to ask Bai Tu if he could raise the previous "price code" a little more, so as to make Zhang Xiu fall to the Cheqi General's Mansion.

After all, the situation is big, the Che Cavalry General's Mansion is not as good as Yuan Shao, in terms of geography, Huainan and the Wancheng and Suicheng areas in the north-central part of Nanyang County, as well as several counties separated by the upper reaches of the Huai River, are all stationed in Yuan Shu's old department at this time, which is not as good as Cao Cao's control range, and directly borders Zhang Xiu.

Bai Tu looked at the letterhead in his hand directly in front of the soldiers - no one thinks that this is the lord snubbing them, these are all front-line grassroots generals, no one will want Bai Tu to ignore the military order, but think that the more sensitive Bai Tu is, the better, which means that when they ask for help and help in the future, Bai Tu will have a faster response.

When the letterhead arrived, the ink was not dry—because it was a signal tower outside Jinling, and it had just been copied.

also understood what Zhu Zhi meant, he couldn't hope that Bai Tu would give him higher authority and let him have more room for guarantee to Zhang Xiu, otherwise in front of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's envoys, his competitiveness would be insufficient.

"Ziming, how about I give you a task?" Bai Tu said after a short groan.

"Ahh Lord, Ziming is still a child......" Deng Dang was startled, thinking that Bai Tu had some important military affairs to hand over to his brother-in-law, lest he cause trouble.

Although I hope that Lu Meng will have a better development, he can't help the seedlings like this, right?

"Haha, don't worry...... It's just that Ziming wants to go to Wancheng, Nanyang, to send a letter to Master Zhu there. Bai Tu laughed.

When Deng Dang heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he had some doubts in his heart, if it was just to send a letter...... Why did Ziming go? This means that the means of valuing are a little too weird, right?

But he didn't know that what Bai Tu was thinking in his heart was that the role that Lu Meng could play in this matter was indeed only to deliver the letter, but the upper limit was ...... There may be a surprise.

Even if it is still "Wuxia Ameng" at this time, Lu Meng should also have something extraordinary, this is ...... Bai Tu is more confident than Deng Dang, who is a brother-in-law.

"My lord, if that's the case, then I'll leave now!" Lu Meng looked like the military situation was urgent.

"Don't worry, I still have to consider this letter, and ...... Ask another man to come with you, and you will first go to him. Bai Tu said.

"Please let the Lord know!" Lu Meng looked full of energy.

At this time, Lu Meng definitely looks like a young man with vitality, not only does he not have the composure of Zhou Yu and Lu Su, but he is not even as good as Xiao Lu Xun in this regard.

Bai Tu also gave Lu Meng, a "private" military order, asking him to find someone and go to Wancheng with him.

Originally, Lu Meng thought that it would be someone from the Cheqi General's Mansion, but he was still a little strange in his heart, why did he let himself invite him, instead of the lord directly sending the order. But it's just a test for the lord......

However, when he heard the identity of this person, Lu Meng was a little stunned in disbelief, and even looked at Bai Tu rudely for two seconds before he reacted and hurriedly took the order to leave.

"Find a car and ride the general's mansion...... Steward Wang of the Internal Affairs Department...... Steward Lee, who is in charge of the firewood supply under his subordinates...... Butt woodcutter? Lu Meng even wondered if he was so nervous today that he hallucinated.

However, Bai Tu knew that he didn't have a scoop in his mouth, and what he said was exactly ...... The nameless!

After Shouchun's malaria incident was over, Nameless left single-mindedly, not only unwilling to join the army, but even Bai Tu's suggestion to recommend him as a civilian official also refused......

Bai Tu also knew that Nameless's knot was unsolved, and he wanted to put it first, but the meat was rotten in the pot anyway - Nameless had promised that he would move to Jinling in the future and send firewood to the Cheqi General's Mansion.

It's just that when Bai Tu casually asked Lu Bu about Zhang Xiu, because he didn't shy away from Nameless who was about to leave, at this time Lu Bu mentioned a sentence "Hundred Birds Towards the Phoenix Spear", which attracted Nameless's attention.

For this reason, Nameless also specially asked Bai Tu that if the surrender failed, he hoped to be notified first......
