Liu Bei decided to accept Dong Huang, but he didn't think that Dong Zhuo was burying nails or anything here.

There is no need for that, this is purely Dong Zhuo's means to curry favor with himself.

In Lu Zhi's view, this is a normal measure for the classic inheritance family to build a power network, and it is Liu Bei's layout means to take precautions.

Dong Zhuo is now the Taishou of Hedong County, and he has a political capital of 2,000 stones, as well as military talents, which is valued by the Yuan family, and his future prospects are not small.

The cooperation between the two sides must be beneficial to Liu Bei.

"Zhuo County Zhuo County Liu family is going to make a fortune sooner or later, at this time to make more reserves for the future family is also beneficial, a wide range of good relationships for the emerging family is of great significance, if you encounter such a thing in the future, Xuande can consider it yourself."

Lu Zhi smiled and patted Liu Bei's shoulder: "The road to the future is for you to walk by yourself after all, you are no longer young as a teacher, and in the future, you and the Lu family need to walk hand in hand." ”

"The kindness and teachings of the teacher will never be forgotten by the disciple in his life."

Liu Bei gave a clear statement.

So, in Liu Bei's circle, suddenly there was an extra Liangzhou person.

When Liu Bei held a pre-war meeting early the next morning, he announced that Dong Huang would join his own personal guard team with a hundred Longyou Iron Cavalry to protect his own safety.

However, there is no obvious rejection or anything like that, Liu Bei's small circle has just been established, there are not many members, and there is no clear boundary between them.

If you really want to talk about regional differences or anything, it's not necessarily true, because everyone comes from different places in the north and south of the world.

For example, Liu Bei and Zhang Fei, as well as Liu Yong and Liu Sheng, all of whom are from Zhuo County, Youzhou.

Guan Yu is a native of Hedong County.

Zhao Zhao and Zhen Yan are from Jizhou, one is in Anping and the other is in Zhongshan, and Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan are from Peiguo in Yuzhou.

Among the children of the six families of Zhao, Li, Wang, Zheng, Yin, and Han, Zhao and Li are from Henan Yin, Wang and Zheng are from Hedong County, and Yin and Han are from Hanoi County.

Now there is an extra person from Longxi County, Liangzhou, which doesn't look so strange.

This small group can be regarded as a hodgepodge of the north and the south, and there is no distinct regional color, Liu Bei never mentions the difference between regions, takes the initiative to dilute the regional color, and only pays attention to establishing everyone's identity with him.

As long as you agree with Liu Bei, identify with him as a person and his supreme leadership position, everything else is easy to say, we don't engage in regional discrimination, we don't put map cannons, and we pay attention to being a brother in the four seas.

Therefore, Dong Huang's joining was scrutinized by everyone, but there were not too many waves, and this matter passed like that.

Liu Bei, as the vanguard of the army, led the army to set off about three days before the main force of the army, and walked in the front to open the way for the army, and the route of the army was roughly along the Zhangshui all the way to the northeast, passing through Lieren County and Qizhang County, and then to the north, and arriving at Julu County, where the Yellow Turban Army was initiated.

Lieren County was not attacked by the Yellow Turban Army for the time being, and Lieren County Ling Chang Zun saw the arrival of the vanguard of the Han army, and hurriedly came to greet him, and after asking about the situation, he looked at Liu Bei happily and worriedly.

"It's a pity that our county is not rich, and there is not much wealth to reward the army, and the residents in the city are poor, poorly clothed, and hungry, so ......"

Liu Bei was suddenly a little depressed.

"It is our duty to march and fight against the enemy, and we do not need property, and our army only passes through, and will never enter the city."

Chang Zun was stunned.

"Do you really want money and don't enter the city?"

"If you really don't want money, you won't go into the city."

Chang Zun immediately became happy.

"He is worthy of being a great Confucian disciple! Liu Jun is really high-spirited! The Han Dynasty has Liu Jun, which is really a blessing for the country and a blessing for the world, and my admiration for Liu Jun is really ......"

I didn't see it, this guy is still a chatterbox.

But if you really want to talk about it, don't spend money on auspicious words, just say it.

Liu Bei didn't have much time to greet him, so he told Chang Zun that there was still a large army behind him, and then he needed to use the county town of Yilie as a grain transfer place for the army, and asked him to mobilize the residents in the city to make some preparations.

This is easy to do, for him, as long as these heavily armed soldiers do not enter the city, do not rob money, and do not cast a shadow on his career, everything can be done.

Liu Bei didn't stop long, gave the army a meal, went to the toilet to rest, and announced that he would continue to march.

On the way to the march, Dong Huang, who was quite arrogant in his personality, came over and boldly asked Liu Bei questions.

"Sima, this march and war, asking the soldiers for two money is the best way to boost morale, without money in hand, the morale of the soldiers can not be boosted, morale is not uplifted, and when they encounter the enemy, they will not contribute, how can this battle be won?"

Liu Bei took a look at Dong Huang and knew that what he was talking about was probably the basic way for the Liangzhou soldiers to march and fight, or rather, it was also the way for any "strong army" in this era to march and fight.

Give money, give a lot of money, give as much money as possible, to the point that the soldiers themselves feel embarrassed to not work.

In these years, we cannot expect the big-headed soldiers to have any consciousness of defending the country for the people, for the people, and for the country.

In the political situation of taking the county as the country, soldiers who are not from the same county do not treat you as their own, and they can do whatever they want when they leave their own county, burning, killing and looting everything, and there is no psychological burden at all, just feel normal.

What's more, when the financial resources of the Luoyang Imperial Court were scarce, the troops sent to levy local rebellions did not pay the recruited troops, and directly acquiesced to the fact that they could burn and loot as much as they wanted after victory, and did not seal the sword for three or five days, as a substitute for military salaries.

The behavior can be said to be very bad.

Over the years, the soldiers with knives are like evil ghosts who ask for their lives in the eyes of ordinary people, and even the local officials have big heads when they see them, and they don't know how to properly settle them, and the officials who can properly handle the problem of the troops crossing the border are all officials who have the ability to make a note in the history books.

The reasons for this problem are very complicated, there are many, small fights can't be solved, it's useless to scrape together slogans, and when the conditions are not sufficient, Liu Bei didn't think about how to change.

He just agreed with his subordinates before setting off that the money would be enough, the spoils of war would be enough, and he would never let his servants suffer, and he would never let you lose money, and he would not let you get the money for selling your life, and the reputation of my great Confucian disciple Liu Xuande was used as a guarantee.

If you break your promise, the sky will thunder.

Then, I have only one request.

When I forbid you to kill, none of you were allowed to kill.

Murderers in vain will pay for their lives!

Liu Bei also told Dong Huang about this agreement.
