Hearing the names of these three people, even Liu Jian's heart couldn't help but skip two more beats.

Tao Qian, Liu Yu, Dong Zhuo...... This is all at the time of the Yellow Turban Uprising, the heavyweights of each side, I can't imagine that now the three of them are assassins, and they are alternately serving in the two states.

Although the history of the assassin is only 600 stones, after all, it has the responsibility of supervising the state and county officials, and compared with the weight of the imperial court, the words of the assassin history will be more convincing.

"What the prince of the palace means, if you can follow the history of the two states and the three uncles play at the same time, then the matter of going out of the plug, Your Majesty will have more certainty, right?"

"Yes, here in Youzhou, the counties are too guarded, all of them have been bitter and fresh for a long time, with me and Houjun taking the lead, there should be no surprises, Tao Gongzu's term of office has arrived, and he will rebel against Beijing in a few days, and Liu Boan has also set off from Luoyang, and is about to come to Youzhou to take office, at this time, when the two of them come and go, and the rotation is alternate, if these two can go out and withdraw together, and jointly advise Hu to go out, then the pressure on His Majesty's side will be much smaller."

"If you add Dong Zhijun from the state to play together, then this matter can be decided?" Liu Jian made a tentative speech.

"Exactly."

Lu Qian supported his body, he was not too young in this era, and the long time of sitting made his lower body stiff, so he stomped back and forth in the hall while talking.

"Deran, this matter is very important, before the matter is decided, I should not spread this matter too much, so this matter except for a few of my henchmen, no one in the house is available for the time being, the previous Gongsun Bogui recommended you to me, there are many praises in the letter, I have a detailed discussion with you today, and I see that although you are young, but you are indeed a material that can be made, so I will think about it today."

Liu Jian thought to himself, no wonder this Lu Fujun had been analyzing with him for so long, it turned out that he was waiting for him here.

He planned to let himself do big things, but he was afraid that he would not be able to do it, so he was so long-winded.

But right now, helping him is helping himself, no matter what the difficulty is, Liu Jian has to go up.

He is now determined to promote a decisive battle between the imperial court and Xianbei.

"Please also ask the prince to command, and the last official will do his best."

"Okay, I also told you about it, the people in the counties of Youzhou, I have to contact Brother Hou, Bogui and others, it should be no big problem, Tao Gongzu left office, this matter has nothing to do with him, it is not difficult to bring a word back, Liu Bo'an is a clan relative and virtuous minister, everyone knew each other in the past, all for the sake of the community, it should be no big problem, the key is still in this state."

"Today's counties and counties, in charge of military affairs, in addition to the locals, Liangzhou has the most people, among which the person who holds the bull's ear, Dong Zhuoye!"

"I plan to write a letter, send a confidant to send it to Dong Zhuo, and ask him to jointly write to the court to raise troops and go out, but this messenger, one has to be my confidant, and he can't leak the news, and the other needs to be shrewd and capable, although Dong Zhuo I haven't met, but I also know that he is not good, and he is even more turned to Duan Cheng, Zhang Huan, and Yuan's three families, even if you can't fight him, but you probably have to understand his thoughts, so I can act well."

It turned out that I was asked to see Dong Zhuo.

But it's right to think about it, don't look at him as the head of a county, but in this matter, it may not be easy to consider someone who is both handy and trustworthy at once.

Instead of thinking back and forth, it is more appropriate to directly let yourself, the person who got the news most directly, meet Dong Zhuo.

"In that case, I wonder when the last official will set out?"

Lu Qian groaned slightly, and said: "It is better to be sooner rather than later, in this way, you will first take over the position of Bing Cao Zuoshi in the county office in the coming day, and you will see Bing Cao Peng, roughly hand it over, I will issue you a customs clearance talisman, and you will go to Jinyang immediately to send a letter to Dong Zhuo." ”

Liu Jian immediately received the order, and then said: "From Jicheng to Jinyang, nearly two thousand miles back and forth, it is inevitable that there will be some dangers along the way. ”

Lu Qian smiled and said: "It's easy to say about this matter, the four of you, I will have eight more horses with you, and you can transfer back and forth along the way, and you can also arrive in Jinyang as soon as possible." ”

Liu Jian hurriedly said: "I'm afraid there is something wrong with this matter, if the court Guo and Xianbei have a decisive battle, the land of Youzhou, whether it is a war horse or a horse carrying heavy baggage, there will be a shortage of horses, how can the last official take away eight good horses at this time?" ”

Lu Qian was quite surprised when he heard this.

I don't want this young man to not only have a far-reaching mind, but also be so loyal and patriotic, and even a few horses are worried about saving the county.

Details determine success or failure, this simple sentence doubled Lu Qian's good impression of Liu Jian.

"Young man, don't worry so much, my Han Dynasty is mighty and has tens of millions of Li Shu, can't I afford your eight horses? It doesn't have to be that way. ”

Liu Jian said tentatively without a trace: "Dare to ask the prince, I heard that three years ago, Xia Jun came out of the fortress and was defeated by Tanshi Huai, and there were as many as 30,000 lost war horses and pack horses alone, and now I am afraid that his vitality has not recovered, right?" ”

"Thirty thousand, a slight exaggeration, but it does cost a lot."

Everyone knows about this matter, but Lu Qian is not taboo: "However, over the years, the imperial court has always had the intention of fighting again with Xianbei, so Ma Yuan everywhere is stepping up the cultivation of taming and stockpiling grain, if you want to form the cavalry needed for a fierce battle, it should be barely enough." ”

"What about the pack horses that transport the grain?"

Lu Qian turned his head to look at Liu Jian, and found that he had a worried look on his face, and said in his heart that this son was really anxious about the war...... Not bad, yes, a good boy.

"Although the pack horses are not enough, even if they are temporarily recruited from the people of the two states, it is too late."

"Does the imperial court have enough money?"

Lu Qian laughed and said: "You kid is worried, if Your Majesty really has the heart to do something, money is not a problem." ”

Lu Qian's words, Liu Jian pondered carefully, and this was indeed the case.

He didn't know if Taicang had any money, but in the hands of the Son of Heaven and Shaofu, there must be money.

Don't look at the emperor's power today, but he knows that the money in the hands of His Majesty will not be stingy once it is used for things that are beneficial to him to seize power.

It depends on how Liu Hong wants to spend it.

Play is also a flower, and doing big things is also a flower.

And come to think of it, Lu Qian will not be untargeted, and he dares to say this only because he has some rumors in the court.

Liu Jian's mind changed slightly, and he admonished: "The king, according to the opinion of the last official, although the court is not short of money to buy horses, but if you want to buy them in the people, once the news is released, I am afraid that all the powerful families will secretly unite when they hear the news and raise the price of horses in order to make huge profits. ”

Lu Qian himself and Lu Zhinai are in the same family, both of them are Qingliu characters, and they are not in the company of Haoyou, and they are quite appreciative when they hear Liu Jian's words.

"Are you right? Is there a way to crack it? ”

"Yes."

"Tell me about it."

"If the Northern Expedition is finalized, why not secretly spread the news before the public list to buy horses, that is, the imperial court is short of horses in this battle, and it is unable to support the purchase price of the horse market, and there is a forcible requisition, so that the rich can hide horses or secretly deal with the excess horses in their hands, so that the horse market will decline in the short term, and when the public list comes, the imperial court will explicitly purchase the existing market of the horse market, and the horse price will be difficult to recover in a short period of time, so it can be avoided by the calculation of the giants."

Lu Qian was stunned when he heard this, he looked at Liu Jian in surprise for a long time, and then nodded slowly.

This kid knows a lot!

"Feasible! Just do what you say. ”
