It was the year old, the princes of Shandong rose up to attack Dong, and the respondents gathered, and the soldiers rose up to Wanyu.

It is quite similar to the time when the Shandong countries joined forces to attack Qin.

Liu Bei, who returned from Youzhou, did not immediately rush to the sour jujube where the princes gathered, but went south from Taishan County to meet the famous "neighbor" who had never met for a long time.

Xuzhou Mu Tao humble ancestors.

When Sun Qian took Liu Bei to find Tao Qian, this famous man in a state was wearing a linen shirt and a pair of straw sandals, squatting on the ridge.

If people who don't know him look at him, they will only think of him as an ordinary field farmer.

Tao Qian heard that the person who came was Liu Bei, who is now a very famous Qingzhou pastor in the world, but he still didn't get up, but just beckoned to Liu Bei.

He Lang smiled: "Xuande is not easy to come by, but the state is a little simpler, there is neither food nor good wine to treat each other, but I am afraid of being inconsiderate." Xuande doesn't want to find fault with me. ”

Although the words seem to be talking and laughing, even a reckless man who has never read can hear it.

Previously, when Liu Bei was in Qingzhou, he wrote down some recipes for meals based on his memories of being a foodie in his previous life, combined with the current situation, which are all very simple methods.

For example, although there are many wars in various states today, Qingzhou is still much better than other states under his rule, so this recipe quickly spread around Qingzhou. Not to mention the spread of the world, at least in the nearby states have heard of it.

In addition, the world's famous daughter Hong is also from him, so I don't know when he appeared in Qingzhou, a saying that he has good food and good wine.

Sun Qian on the side smiled bitterly and shook his head, his own state pastor has endured a lot of hardships for this character.

He had persuaded him many times before, but Tao Qian always responded well to his mouth, but when it came to the end, he always brought out his stinky temper.

Liu Bei didn't care much, took a few steps forward, walked to Tao Qian's side, and squatted down.

Tao Qian turned his head to look at him, and then looked between the ridges in front of him, "Xuande was born in Youzhou, a place of border congestion, looking at thousands of miles, and the scenery is not bad." Although Xuzhou is not a southern place, it is still a little different from the northern borderlands. ”

Liu Bei nodded, "It's indeed a little different." ”

"In fact, a border place like the secluded and cool Sanzhou is the best place in my heart, who would have thought that I would end up here."

Xuzhou is in the east of the world, the hometown of the overlord in the past, and it is also rich among the states in the east.

Tao Qian laughed at himself, raised his hand to wipe the ridge under him, and then sat down directly on the ridge.

Liu Bei on the side also did the same.

"Tao Gong has always had ambitions, and he heard it when he was in the Northland." Liu Bei said with a smile.

Tao Qian is well-known for two things, one of which is naturally riding a bamboo horse when he was a teenager and organizing the practice of rural teenagers.

The other thing is that he is stubborn and angry, and he has an old minister in the Tao family.

Tao Qian naturally knew what Liu Bei was referring to, which was also a proud thing in his life, and when he heard Liu Bei say it at this time, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Although what Xuande said is not bad, after all, he is just Tao Gongzu in the eyes of the world. The most proud thing in my life is actually the knowledge of the army, and the most regrettable thing is that I cannot be appointed to the field. Otherwise, I will definitely not be under Wei Huo. That's why I wanted to be on the borderlands. ”

Liu Bei was a little stunned, and turned his head slightly to glance at Sun Qian behind Tao Qian, who could only smile bitterly.

Tao Qian didn't seem to notice the expressions of the two, and said, "Xuande is here to ask why I didn't join the alliance that crusaded against Dong Zhuo?" ”

Liu Bei nodded, "Bei really has doubts, and he is here for this." ”

For example, many states have expressed their solidarity even if they have not sent troops.

Tao Qian laughed, "Xuande is a smart person, in front of smart people, you and I don't have to say those scenes of people making people." ”

He clenched his hands into fists and placed them on his knees, "because I didn't think it would work out this time." Traveling far away, returning in vain, wasting money and food. ”

"Tao Gong's words are wrong, the people who are in the alliance this time are all heroes from various states, even if it is not an exaggeration to say that they are all arrogant."

Liu Bei laughed softly: "Does Tao Gong look down on him Dong Zhuo and underestimate the world's heroes?"

Tao Qian just laughed when he heard this, and never turned his head to look at Liu Bei, "I treat each other with sincerity, why should Xuande use these words to trick me?" This alliance is all heroic, but although there are many heroes, they may not be able to succeed. ”

He smiled again: "Back then, I accompanied Zhang Wen's troops to Liangzhou, and all the people I accompanied at that time were famous generals, and the sergeants under my command were rare elites in the world. But what the final result is, I think Xuande has also heard of it. ”

Liu Bei looked at him deeply.

He had naturally heard of the Battle of Fa Liang, the army went west, but it ended miserably, among which only Dong Zhuo retreated, which can be regarded as a decent ending.

"Xuande, I am a lot older than you, and some words, even if you don't like to hear them, but now that the matter has come to this, I have to talk to you. You don't have to think that this old man of mine talks too much. ”

Liu Bei smiled: "Naturally not." As the saying goes, if there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure, Tao Gong can just open his mouth. ”

"Today's young people are indeed more knowledgeable than my old fellow, and I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing."

Tao Qian laughed at himself, "I have been in Xuzhou for several years, and I have thought about this matter repeatedly, and I have figured out some things in the end, which is not profound, but I also think that there is some truth." ”

He laughed softly: "Now that the world is like this, in my opinion, it is not that there are too few heroes, but because there are too many heroes in the world."

Liu Bei was stunned.

"The decline of the Han family is certainly one of the reasons for the gradual chaos in the world, but there are too many heroes in the world, how can it not be one of the reasons?"

"Everyone has selfishness, whether they feel that they can revive the Han family, or whether they have a sense of retribution, they feel that they are enough to promote the world's major events by themselves. One person has this heart, a hundred people have this heart, and everyone has this heart. Xuande, how can you say that the world is not chaotic?"

Liu Bei was silent for a moment, he never thought that Tao Qian would think of this.

In later generations, some people also asked, why did the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty produce many heroes, and in the later Jin Dynasty, especially in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there were few people as famous as the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty?

It seems that in this short period of the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, but in the past few decades, it has exhausted its heroic spirit?

Later generations mostly refuted it with the widespread circulation of romance, and there were some times when there were no heroes, so that the children became famous.

Liu Bei also thought about this, and it is undeniable that there is this reason, but it may not be the only reason.

At this time, when he heard Tao Qian mention this, he remembered the famous words in his previous life.

Once the hero drew his sword, it was another ten years of calamity.
