If you want to buy an official for Liu Bei, it is necessary to talk about the military system of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The military ranks of the Eastern Han Dynasty are divided into Wu Chang, Shi Chang, Bo Chang, Du Bo, Qu Chang, Jun Hou, Du Wei, Sima of Other Divisions (Jun Sima), General Pi = partial general, Sizheng, Sizhen, Sifang General, Wei General, Hussar General, Che Cavalry General, and Great General, a total of 16 levels.

However, the army of the Eastern Han Dynasty has only seven levels, from bottom to top: Wu-Shi-Team-Tun-Qu-Department-Army.

Wu is 5 people, with a military chief;

Two armies are one, and the shews are long;

Five tithes for a team, set up an uncle;

Then there are two teams for one tun, and there is a dub (centurion);

Wutun is a song, a song is 500 people, and the song is long;

The second song is one, one is 1,000 people, and there is a military waiting;

The military is above the captain, five departments are battalions, a battalion of about 5,000 people, the battalion is set up as a captain, and the lieutenant is divided into a cavalry lieutenant and a foot lieutenant. At this moment, Cao Cao, who commanded 5,000 cavalry infantry to Yingchuan to help, was officially a cavalry captain.

As for the military position above the captain, it is not something that a white body can imagine, and money cannot buy it, unless the purchaser himself has a certain military rank or fame.

For example, the buyer himself is a lieutenant and wants to climb up to the top of the general, but the military merit is not enough, at this time, add some money and go up.

If you seek a military position in vain, you can only buy a lieutenant at most.

However, the commander needed to be appointed by the emperor himself, and the commander of the 1,000-man army did not need to be appointed by the emperor himself, and the chief generals could be appointed by Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun.

If Liu Bei is given the position of lieutenant, he will have to go to Luoyang in person to run the door, which will take a lot of time to go back and forth on this road, and it may lead to the failure of the fifth task "anti-robbery merit".

After all, Cao Cao is already on the way, and within three or five days, he should be able to reach Yingchuan.

There was very little time left for Li Feng to operate.

It stands to reason that with Liu Bei's current military exploits, it is more than enough to be a Qu commander or a military candidate, but I don't know if Liu Bei didn't mention to Huangfu Song and Zhu Jun that he was still white, or if the two saw Liu Bei leading more than 1,000 officers and soldiers to support, thinking that he already had a military position, so they deliberately ignored this matter.

According to Han law, it is okay for a white body to command his own private soldiers, but he cannot lead the imperial army.

Therefore, Liu Bei's current situation is a bit embarrassing.

But this is not difficult for Li Feng.

Even if you can't be a captain, you can complete the task as a military candidate.

The question now is to convince which one of them, Huangfu Song or Zhu Jun, is to promote Liu Bei.

Who's the starting point?

Huangfu Song was born in a family of Jiangmen, is the son of Yanmen Taishou Huangfu Festival, the nephew of Huangfu Gui, the general of Duliao, this person is upright, loyal, and I am afraid that the gold silk can be moved.

Zhu Jun was born in a poor family, has always been filial piety, strong temperament, famous for good righteousness and light wealth, and respected by the township. Later, he was recommended by Xu Jue to take the official career. This person's background is similar to Liu Bei, both of them are white, although he is also a gentleman with gold silk that is difficult to eclipse, but he can understand reason and move with affection.

Well, let's start with Zhu Gongwei.

Having made up his mind, Li Feng looked at Liu Bei, who still had 32 points of blue volume, and proposed: "Big brother, I saw that Zhu Jun talked with the eldest brother more during the banquet, I heard that he was also from a poor family, and now the eldest brother has made such a great achievement, but he is still white, this is unreasonable, let's go and visit General Zhu Jun, tell the truth, and ask for an official and a half-position." ”

"Besides, according to the Han law, the white body cannot lead the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, if there is no military position, if the eldest brother continues to lead the army to fight in the future, the name is not right, and the words are not good, even if he gets military merits, how should he record it? At that time, I am afraid that the court will treat the eldest brother as a civil righteous man, and there will be no verbal commendation. ”

This is not a cover-up, but a real thing.

In the original time and space, after pacifying the Yellow Turban, Zhu Jun returned to the dynasty and was named the general of the chariot and cavalry and Henan Yin by Liu Hong, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty. He showed the court the merits of Liu Bei and Sun Jian. Sun Jian was very prestigious because he was a county lieutenant before he sent out the army, and after the Yellow Turban Rebellion broke out, Zhu Junzuo asked Sun Jian to serve as the Sima of the Zuojun Army to jointly suppress the thieves, so Sun Jian was soon appointed as the Sima of other continents and took office.

Only Liu Bei has not seen the reward for a long time, and he is in an embarrassing situation, and he doesn't know whether he should go or stay.

Should Liu Bei be rewarded? Absolutely. It has been a rule since ancient times that meritorious service is rewarded, and Liu Bei has indeed made great contributions.

But why is Liu Bei not rewarded when everyone else is rewarded? Because he's a civilian! is not a person in the system, and the military merit system of the Han Dynasty is mainly to motivate the soldiers and generals in the system.

At that time, the Ten Standing Attendants, who were accounting for their military exploits, saw that Liu Bei, a white-clothed civilian, had made so many contributions, and he felt unreliable on the spot. According to the Han law, a white man does not have the right to command the army, and how did a white civilian who does not have the right to command the army make so many military exploits?

It must have been written incorrectly or someone had falsely reported the merits of the war!

So with a big stroke of the pen, he put an X on Liu Bei's name and threw it aside.

Seeing that the Yellow Turban Rebellion had ended for more than a year, and there was still no reward, the three brothers Liu Guan and Zhang were depressed, so they went to the streets of Luoyang to wander around on this day to relieve the boredom in their hearts. Coincidentally, I met Zhang Jun's car on the street.

Zhang Jun saw that Liu Bei was extraordinary, so he had a conversation with him. Liu Bei told Zhang Jun about his achievements and the things that had not yet been rewarded.

Zhang Jun and the Ten Standing Servants have never dealt with each other, and when he heard that Liu Bei had not been rewarded until now, he immediately realized that the opportunity had come, and immediately ran to the court to sue the Ten Standing Servants with righteous indignation, and asked Liu Hong, Emperor of Han Ling, to kill the Ten Standing Attendants. As for Liu Bei's reward, Zhang Jun did not mention a word.

As long as Liu Bei is not rewarded, he can always bite the ten permanent servants to attack.

Of course, Zhang Jun's request (to kill the ten permanent servants) did not fulfill his wish, but instead went to the palace on the spot, and was later imprisoned and died in prison.

But his troubles also made the Ten Standing Servants realize that there must be someone who has not been rewarded for their meritorious service, so he complained about it, so that Zhang Jun came to complain after hearing the news. In order to eliminate the immediate trouble, the Ten Standing Servants decided to reward them according to the merit book first, and then go back and settle accounts with this troublesome guy (Inspector Post, my big knife is already hungry and thirsty).

In this way, more than a year after the Yellow Turban Rebellion was put down, Liu Bei was appointed as the county lieutenant of Anxi County, Zhongshan County. The official position is not big, but he has finally entered the political arena.

……

After listening to Li Feng's analysis, Liu Bei was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that this was indeed a problem, but hesitated and said, "But the day after tomorrow, we will send troops to chase down the Yellow Turban Yu Party. ”

"Why don't you wait until the war is over to visit the second duke, fourth brother, what do you see...?"

When the war is over, the daylilies will be cold!

Li Feng rolled his eyes, Liu Bei at this time was indeed a hot-blooded young man, and wherever the court pointed out that he would fight, he would sacrifice his life and forget about death, regardless of remuneration.

But the problem is that you are just a white body, and it is not considered a battle feat, so it is still a woolen thread.

"Since the eldest brother only wants to protect the family and defend the country, not to seek fame and fortune, then I didn't say it." Li Feng spread his hands, turned around, and made a very angry expression, taking retreat as advance.

As soon as they heard that their brothers were going to do it for nothing, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei couldn't sit still on the spot, and persuaded one after another.

"Big brother, what the fourth brother said is reasonable!"

"Big brother, we can't do it for nothing!"

"Big brother...!"

"Big brother...!"

"Okay, okay, I'll go!" Liu Bei hurriedly raised his hand to stop Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and tugged on Li Feng's sleeve, "Fourth brother, you have always been able to speak well, can you accompany the eldest brother?" ”

"Humph!" Li Feng tilted his head arrogantly, ignoring this eldest brother, and was just about to put the fourth brother's shelf fiercely... But suddenly my body was lighter.

When he was waiting for his reaction, he found that he had been set up by Zhang Fei and Guan Yu and sent outside the room.

Sure enough, it takes skill to make my eldest brother listen to me, and I can't just be hard.

Li Feng was secretly happy in his heart, but he put on a reluctant look on his face, and followed Liu Bei to visit Zhu Jun.
