"Is it okay? It's time to do it! ”

Gongsun Zhan's expression twisted: "The court of the Han Dynasty is what your senior brother Liu said?" Feng Hou worships the general, is it also a matter of your words? ”

Faced with Gongsun Zhan's doubts, Liu Jian only reciprocated with an indifferent attitude.

I don't have the final say in the court of the Han Dynasty, but I know much more about the direction of this world than you.

"Senior brother, don't be so surprised, I can't make you worship the marquis, but I have already seen a meritorious deed at this time."

"If there is no accident, this feat can make the fame and prestige of the people involved resounding throughout the north, a person like you, in the future, lead an army to gallop and make meritorious contributions, and the prestige of Hu Lu is not an empty talk, and the aspiration of the waiting general, clearing the border troubles, can also be pushed down the river."

Gongsun Chan's expression became a little distorted—not anger, but a combination of surprise and excitement.

He stared at Liu Jian in front of him, trying to find some clues from his face.

Liu Jian has lived for decades, and everything else is average, but his ability to hide his inner thoughts is still excellent.

He calmly looked at Gongsun, trying to control the expression on his face so that the other party would not catch any clues.

Gongsun Chan stared at Liu Jian for a while, but he still didn't see anything after all.

Not to mention anything else, just talking about the wind and bones, I definitely have this little junior brother, and this was the case when I was in Wushi Mountain.

From the beginning of the conversation between the two, this kid has no cowardice towards himself, and he is worthy of praise for his character and ambition alone.

In fact, Gongsun Zhan didn't know that as early as when he was in the Gou Mountain, his personality characteristics were mastered by Liu Jian.

Liu Jian has long known that Gongsun Zhan, as a concubine of a big family, has a special situation since he was a child, and his inferiority complex in his childhood has created his current arrogance and extremism, and he will respect people who have the same situation and are equally proud of him, because this will make him subconsciously think of himself.

On the contrary, those who flattered him because of who he is today will make him look down on him even more.

This is a typical psychologically unsound personality, and getting along with such a person is very methodical.

……

"Okay, I'll listen to what you say, if it's really reasonable, Chan will never say anything, and I'll come to apologize for the guilt, but if you don't say anything, what should you do?"

"Don't worry, I'll give my brother an explanation!"

"Okay, it's urgent, the horse can't reach it, you and I high-five as an oath!"

With that, Gongsun Chan stretched out his broad palm.

Liu Jian did not hesitate, stretched out his hand and 'snapped' with Gongsun Zhan, and swore three palms in a row.

Gongsun Zhan secretly praised in his heart, not to mention whether he was blowing or not, but this courage is really exciting.

After putting down his palm, Gongsun Zhan looked at Liu Jian squarely and said, "You said that you have a great merit for me, but I don't know what merit it is?" ”

"Xianbei Sanbu, if there is no accident, within a few months, there will be great changes! At this time, it is the time for men to sweep away the border troubles and establish great achievements, if they can seize this opportunity, they will not be able to pay homage to the marquis. ”

Gongsun Chan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then couldn't help laughing.

That laughter was naturally not funny in Liu Jian's ears, and he could still hear the disdain in that laughter.

Gongsun Zhan's character is really unpleasant, and he is a little subtle who doesn't understand anything.

Liu Jian naturally stood in place, his face relaxed and fearless, not shy, and never retreating.

To put it bluntly, in fact, this speculation about himself in his heart is also a little bottomless, this is just an analysis he has based on what he knows in his previous life and what he has seen in this life, but whether it is accurate or not, he can't say it well.

It is precisely because he has no bottom in his heart that Liu Jian has never said anything about this matter, and he has gambled with Gongsun Chan until today.

It's not that Liu Jian is impulsive, it's just that he has also been infected by the actions of the Han people in the past ten years of life.

He is a thoughtful person, he thinks that he can't look up to heaven and earth and act heroically and selflessly, but he also wants to live a frank and honest life, keep his heart and be clear, do upright things, and establish a gentleman's majesty.

can be blocked at the door of the toilet to preach, what is the so-called gentleman's majesty?

Besides, now, maybe it's time to give it a go, after all, this matter is also a once-in-a-decade opportunity for him.

It's not his style to hide and shrink to be ridiculed...... If you want to play, let's play big.

Now is the moment to engage in psychological warfare with the other party, the more evasive and cowardly you appear, the more momentum the other party has, and the more you can't believe your own words.

When you want to convince someone, if you can't even pass this level yourself, how can you win the trust of others?

Sure enough, after Gongsun Chan laughed a few times, he found that Liu Jian was not only ashamed, but also slightly raised the corners of his mouth, faintly as if he was sarcastic.

In this way, Gongsun Chan was also a little uncertain in his heart.

Could it be that this kid really has something to rely on?

Think about it carefully, when he was in Wushi Mountain, Liu Bei's kid jumped up and down on weekdays, and when he met people, he regarded himself as the queen of Zhongshan Jingwang, and he had no skin and no face.

But this Liu Jian, who is in the same vein as Liu Bei, acts calmly and steadily, never flaunts himself, and does not deliberately bend to others, and is indeed a city government.

And he has written to himself from time to time over the years, and most of them are the words of his classmates, never flattering, nor inquiring about Gongsun Zhan's current situation......

In short, Liu Jian gave Gongsun Zhan the feeling that he knew how to advance and retreat, had a city government, and acted in a very measured manner.

Will such a person really brag in front of himself?

Facts have proved that the character design on weekdays is very important, and if the person is set up, even if it is occasionally bragged about it, people may listen to it seriously.

Gongsun Chan put away his laughter, looked Liu Jian up and down, and pondered carefully.

"Are you really that confident?"

"Did I deliberately ask my brother to humiliate me afterwards?"

"Okay, let's talk about it."

Liu Jian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, after all, it was Gongsun Zhan who broke the confrontation between them first.

Don't look at it as a simple question, but it is very important for Liu Jian to establish a psychological advantage in front of Gongsun Zhan.

"Brother, imagine what the situation has been between my Han and Xianbei in the past three years?"

Gongsun Zhan's tone was very calm: "He is strong." ”

"Yes, he is strong! In recent years, the Han Dynasty has been short of garrisons on the northern border, and has been unable to stop the footsteps of Xianbei, and I don't know about the state, but in Shanggu, Yuyang, and Liaodong over the years, how many people have died from Xianbei's captivity? My brother used to be the governor of Liaodong, and he should know more than me in his heart. ”

Gongsun Zhan sighed and said: "I don't know about other places, just in the six counties of Liaodong, three years ago, there were 30,000 households and 180,000 mouths, but at the beginning of this year, the number of people was less than 130,000. ”

Liu Jian was shocked when he heard this, the border county was attacked and harassed by Xianbei, and the population was plundered and drastically reduced, which was expected by him, but he didn't expect to be robbed so much, just a border country, there were 50,000 fewer people in three years?

He pondered for a moment, and then said, "Brother, isn't it?" It's just Xianbei robbing people, if you only rob 50,000 people in Liaodong's subject country, then Liaoxi, Xuansu, Yuyang, and Shanggu won't lose hundreds of thousands in the past three years? If the Xianbei people can grab it again, can they still move the entire Han Dynasty to Danhan Mountain? Of the 50,000 people who were lost, at least 30,000 were not lost to foreigners, right? ”

Gongsun Zhan's expression was strange, he was silent for a long time, stretched out his hand and pointed at Liu Jian's chest, and then pointed at his chest.

"You know, I know, that is! You don't have to say it, it's not something you and I can handle, let's just talk about the thief! ”

Liu Jian sighed in his heart - yes, this is indeed not something I can manage, at least not at present.

In his mind, he suddenly remembered that day, the Taihang Liukou who would rather die under Zhang Fei's sword and not return to the state.

For Qianshou Li Shu, the most terrifying thing may not really be Xianbei......

"Okay, let's just say that Hu thief, brother, Xianbei has been hijacking the border land for many years, life is getting better and better, and the power is growing day by day, at this time, brother, if you are Tanshi Huai, what do you need to do?"

Gongsun Chan obviously thought about this kind of question from time to time, and he opened his mouth almost without thinking

"Although the Hu people have been rampant in these years, it is only because of the temporary defeat of the Han Dynasty in the past, my Han sergeant, whether it is armor or food supply, is far above the Hu cavalry, if you can protect the domestic peace and stability, the rear is stable, Pai Liang will guard the border pass, and then concentrate on the north to cut down Hu, Xianbei still can't resist!"

"If I am Tanshi Huai, I will face up to the gap between the two sides, and when I take advantage of the frequent civil wars of the Han Dynasty, I will concentrate on developing and growing, gathering the hearts of the people of all departments, accumulating grain and grass, and unifying the system, so as to avoid the Han Dynasty from retaliating against ...... in the future."

When he said this, Gongsun Chan seemed to have figured it out a little, and he knew what Liu Jian wanted to say.

What he can think of, Tanshi Huai will definitely think of, for Xianbei, taking advantage of the Han Dynasty's immatime to look north, plundering the border a lot, and enriching himself is the right way.

But at most, it is just a hijacking of the border county, if you really send people to unite with the Taihang bandits and covet the interior of Youzhou, it will provoke the anger of the Han Ting, in case the other party is desperate and concentrates the elite forces to fight north, no matter who wins and who loses in the end, the pressure on Xianbei will increase suddenly, this is definitely not what a hero like Tanshi Huai should do!

This is against common sense!

"It seems that my brother has also figured it out, and Xianbei is acting unusually now, what does this mean, it shows that they have internal changes!"

"What internal changes?"

Liu Jian didn't speak.

If his estimate is not bad, Sandalwood should be dying.

He was not so good as to be able to remember the year of life and death of every historical figure, especially Tan Shi Huai was not a Han Dynasty figure, so Liu Jian couldn't remember what year Tan Shi Huai died.

But he remembered that after the death of Tanshi Huai, Xianbei was divided into three parts, and they governed each other and attacked each other, which gave the devastated Han at that time a chance to breathe.

Even in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, when the warlords were fighting, they were not attacked too much by the northern Xianbei, and it was not until Cao Cao came to power that Kebineng once again unified the eastern and central Xianbei.

In between, there have been too many years, and the Han Dynasty has had too many respites.

Therefore, the death of Tanshi Huai is a blessing in misfortune for the Han Dynasty, which is about to fall apart.

If Tan Shihuai is still alive, the Xianbei three are still in a unified state, and the subsequent Yellow Turban Uprising and Dong Zhuo's chaotic government will never be missing the shadow of this Hu clan.

But in fact, no!

At the time of the Yellow Turban Uprising, there was no war in the northern part of the Han Realm.

This shows that Tanshi Huai died before the Yellow Turban Uprising.

According to these inferences, coupled with the strange things that are happening right now, Liu Jian dares to bet that Tanshi Huai is probably dying, and the Xianbei Sanbu is about to fall into infighting.

But if you ask Gongsun Chan to gamble on this matter, he will never dare.

If it weren't for the foresight, how could a person's life span be gambled?

"I have an idea at the moment, but I don't want to say it straight because there is no empirical evidence...... Senior brother, can I go to the county office to interrogate the leader of the Hu cavalry who was captured by me alive before? ”

Gongsun Chan frowned and said, "If you have any ideas, just say it!" How can you still try him? ”

Liu Jianxin said, if I don't go to the trial, just such a red-mouthed and white-toothed person will talk to you about sandalwood and stone acacia...... Can you believe it?

"If my brother thinks it's inconvenient, forget it, it's a big deal, I'll go to the county office to confess my mistake to my brother in the future."

These words were clearly to provoke him, as if Gongsun Zhan did not let Liu Jian judge the prisoner, and deliberately forced Liu Jian to admit defeat.

But Gongsun Chan is quite comfortable with this.

"What do you mean? Can I still deliberately suppress you? Isn't it just a trial of a thief? Examine! Go for trial now! ”

"No, it's too late now, I'll just go during the day tomorrow."

"What are you going to do in the daytime? Just try it now, you come with me quickly! Overnight trial! ”

"I'm going to sleep, I'm not going!"
