Speaking of which, this Zhang Xian is actually a great character.

As Zhang Xian, who was born in Nanyang, he has been an honest and honest person all his life.

In fact, he has not done anything evil in his life, he has not robbed the Quartet like the thieves, and he has not robbed and paid miscellaneous taxes like the chaotic little princes.

He has served as Lingling, Guiyang and now Changsha Taishou, except for the wild land of Wuling, he has almost walked a big circle in Jingnan, and he has won the hearts of the people, and he is really the kind of person who is very good to the people.

It's just that these characters can't look down on Liu Biao, and even become mortal enemies with Liu Biao.

To be honest, Liu Biao should also reflect on it, it seems to have been smooth sailing in the past few years, and see what has become of his reputation.

At the beginning, this guy became Bajun with Chen Xiang, Fan Fan, Kong Yu, Fan Kang, Tan Fu, Zhang Jian, and Cen Hui, and he was still a student who participated in the Taixue Movement.

When the real boy is proud, he is majestic.

After that, he entered the official career and directly called it Bagu again with Tian Lin, Zhang Yin, Xue Yu, Wang Wan, Liu Yi, Xuan Jing, Gong Xugong and others.

Before the advent of the second party rebellion, he and Zhang Jian, Cen Hui, Chen Xiang, Kong Yu, Yuan Kang, Tan Fu, and Zhai Chao, a group of new and old friends, directly became Baji.

This guy is also coming in troubled times, if he doesn't come in troubled times, he will flee and come back, and he will not fall into the eighth kitchen.

Although Sanjun, Bajun, Bagu, Ba and even Ba Chef are all the best choices among the Qingliu celebrities, but this guy is not going all the way up, he is falling down.

Gongsun Zhu felt that if this title evaluation continued for a few more years, the possibility of Liu Biao falling out of this queue was simply infinite.

And a character like Zhang Xian can rely on a Jingnan to fight against Liu Biao for so many years, which is enough to show that although Liu Biao has many desirable advantages, he is also not a good person.

Gongsun Zhu sat in Deng County, and during the previous war, Gongsun Yue stayed in Deng County to guard Deng County, which really helped Gongsun Zhu a lot.

Gongsun Zhu really couldn't bear to watch this guy who had a good relationship with their father and son die on the battlefield in Yuzhou, and at the same time wanted to use his face to protect himself from being disturbed by Sun Jian.

Of course, the most important thing is that he didn't want the Youzhou elite cavalry under Gongsun Yue to be taken away by Sun Jian and finally fall into the hands of Yuan Shu.

That's just disgusting.

However, it was precisely because of his deliberate move that Gongsun Yue saved his life, kept Gongsun Zhan's fine horse, and also kept the stability of Deng County.

Neither Sun Jian nor Yuan Shu wanted to tear their faces for the sake of a dispensable Deng County and Gongsun family at this time, this was completely unnecessary.

Therefore, Gongsun Yue has been squatting on the ridges of Deng County during the war, and the Youzhou elite cavalry has traveled around, and all the soldiers who rushed to loot will receive their warm hospitality.

And show them the way forward, or the way back to the next mother.

dragged Gongsun Yue's blessing, this entire Jingzhou, except for the place guarded by Zhang Xian in Jingnan, only the one-third of an acre of land in Deng County was left without delaying spring ploughing.

But even so, Gongsun Zhu sighed when he looked at the people who were working hard in the fields.

"This year's harvest doesn't look good." Gongsun Zhu reluctantly said to Guan Yu on the side, "Although the spring ploughing has not been delayed, the year is not good, if the people do not pay taxes, they may be able to eat a few full meals."

If you give Liu Jingzhou grain and straw, I'm afraid this life will not be easy. ”

"There's no way, if it were at other times, I might be able to intercede with that Liu Biao, but this year is different, I heard that there have been a lot of changes in Chang'an again, and Liu Biao is ready to go to Chang'an to pay tribute.

This time, in addition to the need for tribute, this grain is also the top priority, that Pang Ji arrived in Deng County yesterday, I hope that Deng County can pay more than 20% this year...."

"I'll let his mother fart, don't you know how many people in Deng County have and how many mouths, Jiao Sicheng is already considered a harsh government, he still wants to have two more, doesn't he want the people of Deng County to starve to death?"

"Hey..."

Guan Yu, who was arrogant and arrogant in Pingsuri, was also helpless at this time, because compared to the life and death of the people, he could not say words that would affect His Majesty the tribute.

Even if he knew that the so-called tributary majesty was nothing more than that he Liu Biao wanted to change from the assassin to the state pastor.

The assassin only has the right to govern, and only after becoming a state pastor can he Liu Biao directly become a feudal official of the town.

He can really gain a foothold in Jingzhou.

After Gongsun Zhu heard Pang Ji's intention, his face was even more gloomy than before.

The refugees in Nanyang are more and more day by day, and now people have begun to starve to death, and Yuan Shu is gone, and he has not been able to change their tragic fate.

Fancheng, the same, is full of corpses on the banks of the Hanshui River.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and Gongsun Zhu feels that if he continues to toss like this, let alone Nanyang, I am afraid that the sixth plague will run rampant in the entire Jingzhou.

By that time, all his plans had become.

"Tell Pang Ji that if you don't have food, you have to die, and if you have the ability, you will take off the head of a certain family and pay tribute, don't force me to beat him and then drive him out of Deng County, get out of Deng County!"

"You calm down...."Guan Yu shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly, he was already trying hard to suppress his temper, and then turned his head to see Ma Chao who had just left.

"Ma Chao, you fucking come back for me, put the whip down for me!"

In the face of such a situation, in the face of such an excessive Jingzhou envoy.

In the end, Gongsun Zhu didn't let his nephew really come out to whip the messenger, but that Ma Chao was presumptuous in front of Guan Yu for a moment.

At the same time, it kind of told those people... That's it!

Don't overdo it!

Ma Chao was locked in the room by his uncle Gongsun Zhu and was not allowed to go out, while Gongsun Zhu himself kept pleading with Pang Ji with a smile on his face, hoping that he could have a few good words with Liu Jingzhou, who is now in the limelight in Jingzhou.

After all, this Liu Biao brought it up.... This sixty percent of the tax is really unbearable.

For this reason, Gongsun Zhu agreed to let Liu Pan and others enter the army as generals and supervisors when he attacked Zhang Xian in the future.

Watching Pang Ji leave with a face full of guilt, Gongsun Zhu's back molars squeaked, if it weren't for the fact that the situation was stronger than people, he really wanted to have an angry whip.

But in the end, the depression and anger in my heart only turned into a long sigh.

And when Guo Tu came back, he was stunned when he saw this scene, and when he knew about Gongsun Zhu's various operations, his whole person became bad.

Looking at Gongsun Zhu's eyes, there was a great change, and he didn't even hold back his anger in the end.

Let that Gongsun Zhu be counted out again mercilessly.

"Guo Mou will go out for a few days, you can give up the position of the general and the partial division in the army, Gongsun Zhu... You guy is a loser better than Yuan Shu, you are really capable! ”

"Guo really wants to know now, how did you become the chief general in the army, and how did you become the county guard of Jincheng County.

Could it be that the Qiang Hu in the northwest has no brains, and directly makes you have no brains? ”

In the face of Guo Tu's ridicule, Gongsun Zhu, who was already bored, was gloomy, but he just suppressed his anger and did not let himself vent his anger directly.

However, Guo Tu didn't just ridicule, he also taught Gongsun Zhu to order something.

"Who's that, come here!" Guo Tu beckoned to the officials on the side, and asked in front of everyone, "What is the approximate harvest this year, do you know what to expect?" ”

The accountant was also an ordinary old man, because he had listened to a few lectures on the wall of a certain family before, climbed to a tree and secretly watched a few lectures, and he was literate and calculating, so he became a planner.

He was also shocked when he heard Guo Tu's inquiry at this time, and then replied nervously.

"I'm afraid this year's harvest is not good, look at this posture, I'm afraid it's just dozens of grains and grass, it seems to be a lot, but the people in this city are all over the city..."

"Okay, okay, stop talking nonsense." Guo Tu impatiently interrupted the words of the planner, "This year and tomorrow will continue to be disasters, where is there any grain harvest, can you conjure up a certain family?" ”

Guo Tu's words made the official stunned suddenly, and Gongsun Zhu slapped his thigh suddenly.

"Oh, why didn't you say it earlier!"

"Why can't you think of it yourself!" Guo Tu backhanded back, "He can't think of this kind of thing, so he won't say anything, you can't think of it, aren't you stupid?" ”

Gongsun Zhu was scolded by Guo Tu with an embarrassed face but didn't dare to fight back, he was angry with him before, but he really forgot that there was such a shameless way.

The grain harvest in this Deng County is not as much as he says.

After Guo Tu finished scolding, he also poured himself a large mouthful of water and moistened his throat, which was about to smoke.

"You guy, don't think a certain family is talking badly, now you and I are people who can't walk on the same boat, a certain family runs around all day long, let you stay here to watch the family, you have to have a little heart.

When you knocked me and waited for the stuffy stick, your brain was quite flexible, how did you get here and be calculated and calculated.

Although it is helpless for you to come to this point, even if you don't have the ability to take one step and see three steps, you can't be in a hurry when things come to the front.

If your grandson Zhu is like this, you can go back to Yongliang as soon as possible, and you won't have to drag us down here.

It was calculated by that group of guys once, you look at you, you have been here for half a month, except for the gloomy face, which is to hammer the battlements of the city wall.

has been calculated, find a chance to calculate and come back, who are you showing with a gloomy face here all day long! ”

At this time, Guo Tu suddenly began to be in a state of persuasion, and his bitter appearance made Gongsun Zhu a little uncomfortable, but after thinking about it, it was the same.

During this period of time, because he lost Nanyang County in his heart, he was still being teased like this, and he couldn't vent his grievances, and he was depressed and uncomfortable all the time.

Now let Guo Tu scold, although it is unpleasant and harsh, it can also make him understand this truth.

"Thank you...."

"Don't be greasy and crooked here, you might as well do something serious with this little effort!" Guo Tu directly interrupted Gongsun Zhu's words, and then directly took out a letter from his arms that had been written a long time ago.

"Since I promised Liu Jingzhou to prepare for the autumn and start the army in the spring next year, then we can't break our promises and get fat, after Maocai gives it to you, you immediately contact your father to change the age of your household registration, and then look for someone to recommend you to the position of Shangyongling.

At this time, Shangyong, like the Central Plains, although it belongs to the land of Hanzhong, but it has its own faction, and several of the clans are huddled together, not listening to anyone's orders, and there is a great intention of separating one side.

After you get the Shangyong Order, you have a way out, and at the same time, you can exchange for Liu Jingzhou's trust and have more time.

And you don't have to do anything during this time, leave the matter here to General Guan, and you will go to Nanyang to visit constantly.

Then Liu Jingzhou proposed to raise taxes definitely because he saw that a certain family was not there, and he wanted to install cronies in the army, so be careful of what kind of trouble you caused when you went to Jingnan.

Now that you, the loser, have agreed to others, we can't be polite.

This year's grain harvest is seriously in failure, so it is enough to give them a little casually, and they will not pursue it too much, and the extra grain and straw will also make the people work harder.

Ma Chao led his troops towards Fancheng, and no clashes were allowed, but many cities, lands, villages and towns near Fancheng were all within the scope of our ranks.

A large number of refugees from Nanyang were absorbed, and now the grain is still quite abundant, and the young and strong are once again selected to train into the army in case of emergency.

Now that we are ready, we want to make this Jingzhou the granary of the northwest, and let this place become the aid of the northwest.

Gain a foothold here to help the Northwest continue to expand.

Then let's prepare a little more! ”

Guo Tu spoke with a look of hating iron and not steel at this time, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes when he looked at Gongsun Zhu in front of him.

Everything is good in the northwest, there are countless war horses, countless Qianghu, and people who dare to fight in the northwest, but there are not enough talented and resourceful people, and there is not enough food and grass.

As the wind and sand have become bigger and bigger over the years, the northwest is almost the same as Youzhou, and it is impossible to support itself at all.

The only way to do this is to rely on relief from other states and counties.

And this Youzhou still has the support of Jizhou and Qingzhou, even if the situation is different now, this Youzhou is also carried by Liu Yu, and he is stunned to carry the money and grain of Youzhou.

But this Northwest is different.

Gongsun Zhu really couldn't bring up this Youzhou, and in the end he could only choose so!

After talking about these people, Guo Tu also looked at Gongsun Zhu again, and then continued to speak.

"As for what you're going to do... You'd better go to Nanyang County now.

There are many families there, and they go to visit one by one, didn't they plague Nanjun, Jiangxia and Yuzhou before.

This time you will go to plague the family of Nanyang, anyway, you don't have any teacher, and you don't have any face... Well... I don't care about face.

But the good thing is that you still have a reputation, just in the past to get along with those people.. Talk about!

Remember, your purpose is very simple, make a name for yourself, and by the way, see if there are any undesirable people who can be deceived by you.

We need manpower, a lot of manpower, you know? ”

As Guo Tu spoke, he put the cloth in front of Gongsun Zhu, which was already densely filled with various names.

These are all many families in Nanyang County, and the first one is the Xinye Deng family.

Gongsun Zhu knew that this was to make him seek fame, and the only thing he could make Guo Tu look at now was the invisible huge force behind him.

Gongsun Zhu and others began to perform their duties, and the people of Deng County also began to prepare for their autumn harvest.

Ma Chao kept leading his troops out, relying on Wang Wei of Fancheng who did not dare to start a conflict, and constantly expanded the territory of Deng County, and at the same time asked Guan Yu to accept displaced people, select young and strong, and so on.

While everything is slowly going according to plan, many forces in the world are also undergoing a lot of changes.

At the beginning, under the instigation of Li Su, Lu Bu took Ding Yuan's head, and took refuge with Dong Zhongying with the soldiers of Bingzhou who were in the same entangled mood as him.

Since then, Lu Bu and others have entered Luoyang and become Dong Zhuo's minions, and they have also been spurned by everyone, but he still believes that Dong Zhuo can bring him a future.

is willing to help Dong Zhuo fight all the way.

At the same time, in Luoyang, in Chang'an, and in the land of Gyeonggi in the Han Dynasty, Lu Bu also saw scenes that did not exist in Na Bingzhou.

Luoyang has a gentle wind that is not found in the state, and the women here can dress up, because they don't have to worry about disappearing inexplicably because they are good-looking.

The food here is very tasty, with the spicy of dogwood, the hemp of Xichuan, and the sweetness of Yangzhou but not greasy, because people here don't have to worry about not being full, let alone being killed because you don't hurry up to eat.

There is no endless wind and sand here, no fighting in the middle of the night,

No, there is still a sound of fighting, should the Xiliang soldiers just kill a few people, after all, they are all aliens, and they don't change their dead nature.

Until at a certain moment, Lu Bu and the others, who were immersed in a sweet dream, suddenly found that their situation was no longer right!

Previously, Zhang Liao and Zhang Yang and other generals who entered Luoyang first had already taken refuge in Dong Zhuo and had a good status.

After that, Dong Zhuo placed them in the Bingzhou army, and asked the Liangzhou army that came later to "protect" them.

Although he hadn't read a book, Lu Bu was not stupid, and he even had a natural acuity for the battlefield, and in this case he knew very well that he seemed to be in a big trouble.

And most importantly, the so-called oath of father and son has now become a joke.

Dong Zhuo didn't have a son just because his son died, and he still had a nephew who was very fond of him and a granddaughter named Dong Bai.

Compared with Lu Bu, who was favored but restricted, Dong Huang commanded the forbidden army, and was recognized as a major general in the Xiliang Army.

Compared with Dong Huang, Lu Bu felt that he seemed to be more like Dong Zhuo's guard, and the pressure sometimes did make people grow up quickly, at least in Lu Bu's place.

During his time in Luoyang, Lu Bu followed Dong Zhuo's side from charging for him, doing all kinds of things that others dare not do, to slowly becoming a taciturn guard.

He has seen too much of the truth, and he also knows that sometimes his identity is not a name, but a sharp knife.

Dong Zhuo will let him go to fight the Yuan family, Dong Zhuo will let him kill the important ministers of the court, and Dong Zhuo will let him dig the mausoleum of the Han Dynasty.

By the time Lu Bu knew why no one dared to do these things, he was already notorious, like a rat crossing the street, and there were already many other generals in the Bingzhou army.

Lu Bu knew that Dong Zhuo not only used him as a monkey, but even wanted the Bingzhou Army to completely become the Liangzhou Army, and from this moment on, the rift between Lu Bu and Dong Zhuo could no longer be repaired.

Dong Zhuo didn't need Lu Bu to continue to serve as his personal guard, but let him go out to become Hu Zhen's general, but Hu Zhen's attitude towards Lu Bu was not like a general treating his subordinates.

More like a malicious hunter, eyeing his prey.

From Luoyang to Yangren, from Yangren to Luoyang, and finally from Luoyang to Chang'an, as the war progressed, Lu Bu saw more and more heroes and saw more and more truths.

After being left behind again, Lu Bu completely gave up his unrealistic dream.

He forgot his dream, he knew what was called Kuangfu Han Room, he knew what was called Gentle Township, he knew what was called worry-free food and clothing, and he also knew what was called the admiration of ten thousand people.

Lu Bu, who was just a poor boy, wanted a stable environment to live in.

When Lu Bu had the ability to resist and pursue stability on his own, he wanted to make all the aliens fear him again.

When he defeated the alien races again and again in the state and was called the flying general, he wanted to kill them more completely, and there were no more aliens in the state.

His goals and dreams are also changing all the time, and as his status gets higher and higher, his thoughts are slowly changing.

It's just that when he left Bingzhou and came to Luoyang, Lu Bu's path was completely different from before.

Compared with the wind and sand outside the plug and the blood of other races, the diversity of this Central Plains land is more provocative.

The charming woman, the warm room in winter and cool in summer, and the wine with a long aftertaste, these all belong to Dong Zhuo, but these are also envied by Lu Bu.

Dong Zhuo has it, why can't he have it.

And when Lu Bu first took the initiative to have this thought, his heart had already changed silently, but he didn't know it at that time.

And what made all this come true was the old man with a smile on his face, smiling at Dong Zhuo, Li Ru, His Majesty, and even everyone, as if he would never get angry.

Situ of the Han Dynasty, Wang Yun.

And Wang Yun just asked Lu Bu with a smile, "The general is powerful, why do you need to rely on others, Your Majesty has a will, I hope that the general can help the Han family and sweep away the filth in the world." ”

Just such a sentence made Lu Bu's heart move again!

Wang Yun's appearance made Lu Bu see a turning point again, and this time Lu Bu, who had matured a lot, understood what it meant to support the big man.

That is to obey the divine decree and do what the Holy God tells him to do.

Of course, it doesn't matter whether this thing is the intention of the saint himself, what matters is whether he wants to do it or not.

Obviously, Lu Bu thought!
