Lu Bu's Ambition

Chapter 399 Differentiation
Lu Bu, who was standing on the stage, flicked his fiery red cape and sat down on a wide chair, watching the two nodding.

"Shan Xiongxin! Erxianzhuang's reputation is pretty good."

There were only faint comments, but after Shan Xiongxin heard it, his shoulders trembled with excitement, and he hurriedly shouted: "From now on, there will only be Shan Xiongxin, an unknown young general under the command of the general, and there will be no name for Erxianzhuang."

Looking at Shan Xiongxin who hastily expressed himself, Lv Bu nodded in satisfaction, he is quite intelligent and knows how to put aside the past.

"it is good!"

Saying a good word made everyone in Erxian Village flushed as if they were praising them, but at this time Lu Bu looked sharply at the tall and ordinary Song Jiang.

"Shuibo Liangshan! He speaks loudly for Tian Xingdao, and even attacked the counties and counties under the general's rule without authorization."

Song Jiang, who had a dark complexion, clasped his fists hurriedly after hearing this, his eyes were filled with fog and he shouted anxiously: "General, the grassroots are also forced to do nothing. After meeting the young master, Song Jiang has vowed to follow the general to make contributions, and dare not think of the past again."

Song Jiang was not at all stupid than Shan Xiongxin, he was even more shrewd and didn't refute it, he just admitted it, but it also showed that since he took refuge in the young master, he no longer had any thoughts, only wanted to make contributions with the army.

Looking at the eager Song Jiang, Lu Bu nodded his head invisibly, but it was not bad. Song Jiang wanted to join the imperial court a long time ago, but he always wanted to recruit security.

"Okay, let's forget about the past, but since you have entered the army from now on, you should know the rules in the army. If anyone can't stand it and walk out of the barracks now, it will guarantee that the past will never be blamed."

"We will swear to the death to follow the general."

Everyone roared in unison, especially Song Jiang kowtowed excitedly to thank him. Perhaps the gesture was disgusting, but it could also explain Song Jiang's desire to be an upright person.

No one wants to bear the name of bandit, especially Song Jiang, who wants to rectify his name day and night, so that he can enter the grave of his ancestors after his death.

What Song Jiang did made the former Liangshan people feel helpless and at the same time full of joy. The helplessness is that their heads and demeanor are a little lower. Fortunately, they are no longer the thieves that everyone shouts and beats.

Since joining the officers and soldiers along the way, Song Jiang began to alienate his former brothers, whether it was to avoid suspicion or otherwise, at least it was more reassuring.

Even if Song Jiang wants to stand on the top of the mountain again at this time, the former Liangshan people will not follow him. After all, the Battle of Liangshan is still vivid in the minds of everyone.

Dwarf Tiger Wang Ying, Mu Yasha Sun Erniang and many other people with bad deeds, Song Jiang did too obviously, it was obvious that these people were sent to die, and even Wang Ying was killed by Song Jiang Ling Li Kui in the end.

The past has been wiped out, and today Qingzhou returned with a great victory in pacifying the banditry, and rewarded the three armies.

Lu Bu returned to Yecheng with all the civil and military generals, but the generals stayed in the barracks.

After returning to the mansion, Lu Ying was dragged by Yan Shi to the back hall, and a banquet was held in the General's mansion to celebrate.

After some celebrations, all the ministers in the study and Lu Ying's generals who were fighting at this time arrived.

But after Lu Bu washed up and came, everyone respectfully waited for the next sentence.

"Okay, let's talk about how the group of people in Liangshan and Erxianzhuang will manage this time."

I have to say that although they won a big victory this time, they also surrendered too many enemy troops, and this group of bandits are used to freedom, if they are left alone, they may cause trouble.

As for the young master who will be the generals in this battle, although everyone has thoughts in their hearts, they keep silent, for fear of offending the young master.

But Lu Bu had already opened his mouth to ask, and everyone looked at Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun. Just as Lu Ying wanted to speak, her father's eyes blocked her.

"Reporting to my lord, although this group of people sincerely seek refuge, they are used to the life of the king of the mountain, so they should join the army as divisions."

After Zhou Yu spoke, Zhao Yun hesitated for a moment, and finally came out with his fists clasped, and said in a deep voice, "My lord, although Shan Xiongxin and Wang Bodang are bandits, they control their subordinates, and their personalities are not tainted with banditry."

After the two finished talking, Lu Ying sighed, "Father, the people in Erxian Village are not worried, after all, there are not many of them, but there are many generals in Liangshan, and the banditry among them is hard to change."

After listening to the opinions of the three, Lu Bu looked at Guo Jia and Jia Xu. The two sighed helplessly, and it was Guo Jia who stood up first.

"My lord, Song Jiang is timid and afraid of getting into trouble. It is better to let Nuo Nuo be more restrained. It is better to let him belong to Gongtai, and the rest of the generals and ministers agree to go elsewhere."

But Jia Yu stood up quietly and said softly: "My lord, Shan Xiongxin is an extraordinary person with an arrogant personality. Since he wants to make some achievements, let Zilong test it out and let him choose alone."

After a short while, everyone discussed a list of rewards. Most of the generals who took refuge were ready to be scattered to various places, but some people were also left behind.

Although Song Jiang's official position this time is small, it has to be said that only his confidants can hold it, and it can be regarded as a look for outsiders. As for the merits, it can only be seen by Song Jiang's ability.

"I didn't expect so many former imperial generals to fall into the grass in a mere Liangshan, hey~"

However, Di Renjie saw something else, and couldn't help sighing with emotion in today's world.

"My lord, General Yang Lin sent a letter saying that Guan Sheng and Yang Zhi are the queens of the generals, and Luocao was also forced to do nothing."

After hearing Di Renjie's opening, Lu Bu let out a light snort. After thinking about it for a while, he finally agreed.

"Okay, these two will be sent to Qingzhou, appointed by Yang Lin himself."

For them, dealing with this group of people is just for fear that the banditry of these people will affect the military style, but for this group of green forests who seek refuge, it is no less than a feast of gluttonous rewards.

All of them were conferred official positions, even though they were all petty officials, they were not bad, and the rewards did not come down until three days later.

The former brothers went their separate ways, but most of them were dispatched to the border areas of Youzhou and Bingzhou.

Since then, Erxian Village and Shuibo Liangshang, which used to run rampant in Qingzhou, have been completely disintegrated. When everyone was reinstated, Song Jiang did not come to send off his former brothers in order to avoid suspicion or to clear up the past.

In 197 AD, Lu Bu pacified the banditry in Qingzhou, and the economy recovered rapidly as the people in the four prefectures of Hebei lived and worked in peace.

And after Lu Bu's actions spread to the eyes of the princes of the world, they all attracted attention. They all knew clearly that Lu Bu would make a big move next year.

Everyone knew clearly that Cao Cao was the first person Lu Bu had to face in his struggle for hegemony in the Central Plains, and Cao Cao, who held Yanzhou and Xuzhou in his hands, was even more anxious to prepare for the battle.

The other princes also quickened their pace. After all, Hebei was unified. If Lu Bu was allowed to go south to the Central Plains and completely stabilize the Central Plains, there would be no place for them in the world.

After receiving the battle report, Liu Bian of Jiangdong was even more anxious to prepare the army. Countless food and grass began to be escorted to the front line, obviously preparing for a big battle.

Li Yuan in Chang'an had just taken Xiliang, and was also forced by Lu Bu's powerful situation, so he didn't care about recuperating, and secretly dispatched troops.
