She stared at him, the corners of her mouth curled slightly.

"Before Cao Mengde fought against me, I am afraid I also thought about it."

The smile on Xun Chen's face disappeared.

"Yuan Gong is different."

"How is it different? He-"

He stood up and looked at her condescendingly.

At this moment, Lu Hangyu suddenly found that this strategist from the Yingchuan Xun clan was very interesting.

Xun Chen usually has a decent smile on his face, and when he talks to people, he has an elegant and gentle Fengyi, which makes people feel like a spring breeze.

But he is a very cold and hard person in his bones.

Even when saying goodbye to her, the gestures were still graceful and graceful, with a hint of melancholy smile, but this was just the habitual operation of the mason on this person's head.

"The general is still holding on!"

"Then we can't- phew!"

"Don't dig your mouth out with your hands! The team rate has been seen! ”

The general was still standing there, looking at them.

…… But there are already soldiers holding clay pots and wanting to sneak over and sprinkle a little more water.

Lu Hangyu didn't notice it at all, and was still thinking about Xun Chen's unfinished words.

What's different about Yuan Shao?

Naturally, he had several times more soldiers and horses than Cao Cao—maybe ten times more, and in addition to the strategists, there were many famous generals.

…… Two of them had names that she always felt familiar to.

…… It's like thinking of the second master when you see red dates, and you will also think of the second master when you see those two names.

But Yuan Shao is not only a strategist rolling all over the ground and a military general who has gilded the resume of the second master, under his rule, Hebei has become quite rich and stable.

The nobles would oppress the people and treat them like cattle and horses.

But in the past few years, only the people of Hebei are qualified to live a life of cattle and horses, from the south of Qingzhou, almost every inch of land is fighting, Liu Biao of Jingzhou has also broken out a war with Zhang Xiu Sun Ce, and Liu Zhang of Yizhou is also attacking Zhang Lu in Hanzhong.

Therefore, for the people of Hebei, the whole family can live, can eat well, and they are already grateful, as for how to be bullied by the scholars, they don't care at all, after all, the scholars are "since ancient times" on their heads, and the whole world is not the king's land.

For the gentry, the situation is completely different.

Yuan Shao himself was the third prince of the fourth world, the leader of the scholar clan, and he generously shared his power and wealth with the Hebei scholar clan, in exchange for not only the private soldiers of the tribe and the palace scheming every once in a while.

The gentry supported him as they supported themselves.

If that day comes in the future and Liu Bei and Yuan Shao go to war, she will definitely face more than just Yuan Shao's hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses.

- There are also Hebei scholars who swear not to surrender.

Together, they formed a high mountain, which hung above her head like that.

Come to think of it, those people lived well—they could live on their own land, and they could take up their bowls and eat the food grown in their fields every day, without worrying that the general's horse would cross the field, kick open the door of his house, and then take his wife and daughter captive and kill him.

He only had to endure the occasional roughness of the lieutenants and the occasional bullying by Haoqiang.

This is what Xun Chen wants to remind her.

She thought about it and suddenly sneezed.

The ground was completely dry, and the catkins were floating again, creeping into their noses.

…… The pro-soldiers behind her stared at her aggrievedly.

There are still two rows of roads at the gate of the city.

The peasants stood on the side of the slow lane, cowering, but could not help but probe their brains, they did not often go into the city, and a few of the younger ones were obviously dancing with excitement, only to be scolded by their fellow travelers, and then once again they lowered their heads aggrievedly.

When they arrived at the gate of the city, they were to be questioned and identified, and after making sure that everything was fine, they would pay a toll of one penny before they could enter the city.

When the chariots and horses of the scholars were on the side of the fast lane, the servants came forward to reveal their identities, and after the guards checked that the chariots and horses were correct with the servants, they would politely let them go, so the speed was much faster than that of the peasants.

When she came back on horseback with a few of her own soldiers, she didn't line up, but only slowed down the pace of the horses.

The guards immediately dodged out of the way, and hurried to tidy up their clothes.

"General!"

She nodded, and as she continued to ride into the city, an exclamation suddenly came from beside her.

"I know her!"

Liu Da took these brothers out before dawn, and now he has only arrived in the drama city, so naturally there is no need to eat, he is hungry.

They had been a little cautious, after all, they were going to find a job in the city, and if the employer could take care of their meal, wouldn't there be breakfast left?

This is the idea of Liu's daughter-in-law, and I have to say that she is very shrewd.

…… Because although these people have not yet found an employer, they have indeed eaten in vain.

In the inn run by the people of Bingzhou, the clever helpers brought each person a bowl of soup and a large plate of pastries.

The soup is a steaming mutton soup, the heart of the sheep, the lungs and the tripe of the lamb are cut into cubes and boiled in it, add more vinegar, and then break the dough and put it in to soak it.

Smelling the fishy aroma, the noses and mouths of the peasants twitched terribly.

Some people couldn't bear it anymore and started eating, while others took out the clay pot from the sack they carried with them and poured all the water out of it.

“…… What are you doing? ”

"General, it's enough for the villain to eat this cake," the man replied with a happy face as he tossed it, "This soup, the villain packed it and brought it back to the old mother, wife and children at home." ”

"Aren't you here to work?" She asked, "Go back in one day?" ”

A look of disappointment immediately appeared on the dark and rough face, and after a while, he cautiously asked his companion, "This soup can still be eaten after three or five days?" ”

…… Of course, I couldn't eat it, so after being scolded, I could only enjoy the meal painfully.

Watching them eat is painful.

These peasants can use chopsticks, hold bowls, and when it comes to table manners, they are simply savages compared to the scholars.

But they ate so sweetly that the soup spilled and dripped on the table, and they had to quickly pick it up with their fingers and lick it with their tongues.

She looked, "How long are you going to stay here?" ”

"If you can find a job, you can stay for three or five days, and stay for more than ten days!" Liu Da sighed and snorted while eating, and said to her, "The family's fields have been planted, and there are brothers to take care of them, so I don't need so many people at this time, so I want to find something to do in the city, one is to save these few mouths for eating, and the other is to subsidize some family ......."

"How's your family doing?"

"Now it's naturally green and yellow, what's the solution? Fortunately, when the weather is warm, it is natural that people will not starve to death, and the woman can barely exchange for a little food by spinning and weaving at home. ”

The young leaves of the willow tree are edible, the elm money is even more delicious, and there are all kinds of young shoots in the forest that can be picked, and when they come back, they are boiled in water, and then they are mixed with a pinch of salt.

"It's not the villains who flatter the generals here," interjected one of the lads, "and it's actually better than ever!" ”

“…… Why? ”

"The lieutenant told us that the county government posted a notice, and the mountain will no longer be circled!"

She didn't understand, "Circle? ”

"The mountains near our township are all nobles, and we are not allowed to enter, and there are wolves in the distance, not that the hunters dare not enter," the young man said seriously, "Now you can go into the mountains, and you can pick wild vegetables, and you can also go in and set up a few rope sleeves and beat a few rabbits in exchange for food!" Children who couldn't support themselves in the past can be supported this year! ”

She listened thoughtfully.

This year's Qingzhou seems to be able to live, but whether Luoyang can live or not is not certain.

Compared with the guest house for small citizens in the drama city, the two-story building where Liu Ye is located is obviously much more delicate and elegant, and even the dishes are very exquisite.

But Liu Ye didn't have the heart to eat these dishes, just picked up the wine cup, touched his lips slightly and put it down.

"Why is Ziyang so sad?"

"Although Yang Chou was moved, several other partial generals and lieutenants under Zhang Yang all returned the golden silk, and he refused to see me."

"Zhang Yang is the third duke, fake and famous, and those people don't want to see Ziyang, which is also reasonable."

"Yang Chou is alone, and he will never dare to act rashly."

The scribe on the other side stroked his beard and smiled and pointed downward.

Liu Ye's puzzled eyes looked down, and he saw a few men in tattered armor walking by, and pedestrians on the side of the road avoided them, but their eyes were undisguised contempt and hatred.

“…… That's Dong Cheng's Xiliang soldiers? ”

"If it's not them, who are they?" Zhong Xuan sighed softly, "There is nowhere to place the rout, and I am afraid that it will be a disaster, if Lu Bu is ordered to suppress it, I am afraid that it will chill the heart of the world again, and the court will also suffer day and night for this." ”

Liu Ye stared at the Xiliang people walking by in a daze, and then turned to look at Zhong Xuan.

He suddenly realized a conspiracy, stood up suddenly, and bowed solemnly to Zhong Xuan.

"Xie Gong taught me!"

"Ziyang, although Gong Cao was defeated last year, now you should be more and more careful in your actions, and you should not act recklessly." Zhong Xuan waved his hand, "Lu Bu, how are you doing?" ”

"I want to use gold silk to separate him from Zhang Yang's ......"

Zhong Xuan laughed, "Can you hide it from him, how can you hide it from Chen Gong?" Even Gao Shun beside him, I'm afraid he will have to stop it. ”

"What's the best plan for the public?"

The bearded gentleman thought for a moment, smiled and tapped the wine in the cup with his finger, and wrote a word on the table.

When Zhong Xuan wrote, he didn't think or pause, and casually wrote a smooth and beautiful word "Dong", which fell on the table and shined.

If future generations see it, they probably want to extend this word, take it home to paste and collect, and keep it as an heirloom for several generations.

But Liu Ye didn't have time to appreciate his calligraphy, but stared at that word for a long time, and suddenly realized!

Chapter 325

The distance from Yanzhou to Luoyang is not very far, in fact, it is only more than 700 miles.

But the defeated soldiers still slowly walked through the winter, and slowly appeared on the outskirts of Luoyang in the spring of March.
