I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 95 The Four Great Kings
Xu Rong and Cheng Pu are both from Youzhou, and they are from the same state as Liu Jian. Although they are not more reliable than pure fellows like Jian Yong and Zhang Fei, they are both from the North after all. Regions are not retreating from south to north, so Liu Jian first found them out of the large number of military officials in Youzhou.

In this era, if one is looking for someone to work with, the first choice must be a member of the clan, and the second must be a fellow villager.

If you can't find a suitable one among your fellow countrymen, you will be the next best thing, and people from the same county and state will also be given priority.

In this era of deep clan ties and strong local plots, no matter whether the chief chooses his subordinates or the subordinate chooses his chief, this is an inevitable trend and cannot be changed.

Take a look at the team of Han Gaozu Liu Bang, the founding fathers and ministers under him-Xiao He, Cao Can, Fan Kui, Lu Wan, Zhou Bo, Xia Houying, all the fellow soldiers from Surabaya and Peijun.

Let’s take a look at the root team of the warlord when Cao Cao dominated the north and used his troops. The general who supervised the war in charge of one side of the army was either Cao or Xiahou.

These subordinates are indeed talented, and they have all left their names in history, but if you look carefully, you will find that, in a sense, their reputation and achievements are actually related to the platform they are on.

The achievements and income ratio of employees on the winner platform are naturally much higher than those of workers on other platforms, even if the abilities of employees on other platforms are not inferior to them.

In the struggle for hegemony at the end of the Han Dynasty, if Yuan Shao defeated Cao Cao, the names of good generals Yan Liang and Wen Chou would definitely surpass Zhang Liao and be banned.And the famous martial arts of the relatives of the Yuan family who helped Yuan Shao take charge of the clan will definitely far surpass those of Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren and others...even the biography of Cao Wei's eight tiger riders will not be passed down to future generations at all.

……

……

Liu Jian was just looking for available people in Youzhou with the mentality of giving it a try, and his hard work paid off, and he really found it.

"The thousands of people under Lieutenant Lieutenant of Liaodong's subordinate country are military positions, which are much more suitable than the commanders, chiefs, and prime ministers directly appointed by Shangshutai. However, the thousand people of this subordinate country are also four hundred stones. Those who can hold this position in the subordinate country, The next step is very likely to go to the Liyang camp and the Duliao camp to serve as Sima, and if there is a big battle, he will be recruited immediately to make meritorious service, and there is a great chance of being promoted."

Liu Jian thought about it seriously for a while, and said: "Students can't guarantee that this Xu Qianren will definitely be willing to come, but think about it, if a warrior can serve in the Fifth Battalion of the Northern Army, he will be the same as in the frontier army. Or Du Liao, serving in the Liyang camp, the development prospects are definitely different. If I was serving in the Liaodong vassal state and was recruited by the Yueqi battalion, I would gladly accept it. It just depends on whether I personally want to go further. One step away."

Lu Zhi stroked his beard and said: "Although that is the case, it also depends on what position you give him. According to the old man, apart from the position of Sima Qianshi in your camp, the other positions of officials may not be able to move. he".

"Students understand."

Liu Jian knew what Lu Zhi meant in his heart. Although Liu Jian wanted to transfer 38 people to the Yueqi camp, the 37 positions were all assistant officials, and there was only one position as the commander of the battalion. This position has the highest gold content and must be used well. .

It would be a pity to pay by mistake.

Therefore, Lu Zhi reminded Liu Jian to be cautious.

After all, Lu Zhi had no idea whether this Xu Rong was worthy of the position of the only Sima in the Yueqi battalion.

Seeing that Liu Jian listened to his words very well, Lu Zhi was quite satisfied, and he said again:

"As for this Cheng Pu, his position is not high. He is just a history of meritorious service recruited by Youbeiping County. He is not even an officer, and he is over [-] years old. If such a person misses the current opportunity to join the Northern Army, he may In this life, there will be no hope of turning over again. The only troublesome thing may be that he was conscripted by Youbeiping prefect Deng Jing, but it is easy to solve. According to your momentum in Luoyang, a letter is enough Handle."

Liu Jian understood what Lu Zhi meant. He was in Luoyang, but after all he was from Zhuojun, Youzhou. The greater his reputation in Luoyang, the greater his influence in Youzhou. The prefect of Youbeiping was not a native of Youzhou. If there is an opportunity to make friends with a local outstanding person in Youzhou like Liu Jian, it will naturally be of great benefit to him. It is of course a great opportunity to give up a small old official and make friends with the royal brother of the Han family in Youzhou.

"Thank you teacher for your guidance."

"Let's write down these two first, and then read!"

Afterwards, Liu Jian looked again at the counties in Youzhou and the border barracks in the Liaodong vassal state, but he couldn't find any names that could make his heart move.

On the contrary, Lu Zhi helped Liu Jian find eleven reliable frontier military officials in Yuyang and Shanggu, and thought they were useful, so he helped Liu Jian record them.

Because of time constraints, Liu Jian didn't even care about eating, so he went to look through the Biantun and official books in Bingzhou again.

Because just now he had run into a wall with Sun Jian, so Liu Jian no longer looked at the roster of directly related officials appointed by Shang Shutai, but only went to the roster of military officers with lower positions in the Biantun.

Besides Youzhou, the second choice is naturally Bingzhou. After all, Bingzhou is also a border county, and it faces the central part of Xianbei in the north, so there are many border villages and many soldiers.

The future of the children of Bingzhou is much narrower than that of the Liangjiazi of Zhongtu, and even far less than that of the people of Youzhou. It is really a godsend to be favored by the Yueqi school lieutenant
After some searching, Liu Jian saw the name of his good brother Zhang Fei.

At this time, Zhang Fei was already Qianshi Sima, and Han Dang, who belonged to Zhang Fei, was also a village chief.

Over the past year or so, Zhang Fei has made many contributions in the border areas of Bingzhou, and he has gained a lot of reputation. Liu Jian is very pleased.

But even so, Zhang Fei's promotion speed is still a bit fast.

It seems that Dong Zhuo really did what he said. He said that before he was transferred to Hedong as the prefect, he would open up a way for Zhang Fei and be promoted to Qianshi Sima. It seems that what he said was true.

No matter what Dong Zhuo has done in history, it seems that this person has kept his promises at certain times.

At least for now, Grand Master Dong has not revealed his violent potential.

"Sure enough, here it is."

Liu Jian tapped the table with his hand lightly, and pointed out to Lu Zhi the name of a low-ranking officer in the military station of Jiuyuan County with a smile.

"The team rate is Gao Shun, and the character is Zhong Sui."

Lu Zhi looked at Liu Jian suspiciously: "Is this person's official position too low? It's just a team leader. It's hard to say if he doesn't hold the original post in the army, what do you want him to do?"

"Teacher, although this person's rank is a bit low, he really made contributions in the battle against Xianbei in the past. The disciples met him when they were outside the Great Wall, but it's a pity that he was accidentally involved in Dong Zhuo and the others. The enmity between Du Zan, the prefect of Wuyuan, even if he has military merits in Wuyuan County, he may not be promoted in a short time. The disciple is willing to guarantee with his wealth. This person is a loyal person, and he is also worthy of reuse. outstanding people."

Lu Zhi praised with satisfaction: "It must be a good story to be able to understand the subtleties, promote heroes in the army, and spread the word in the future! Very good."

"The teacher praised it."

In fact, Liu Jian also saw the name of Lv Bu who was promoted to the head of the village just now, but he only nominated Gao Shun.

Lu Bu's thinking and acting style are too different from his own.

What I plan to recruit this time is someone who can stay in the Yueqi camp to help him do great things, and to be a confidant, especially in the deep quagmire of Luoyang, there may be some shady things in the future to do.

Lv Bu's disposition is not firm enough, his heart of fame and wealth is exposed, and his heart of righteousness is also weak. In Luoyang, a place with deep waters, especially Zhang Rang and Zhao Zhong are now eyeing him. It was bought by others, even if he didn't betray him, as long as he leaked some gossip about himself, it would be enough to make him drink a pot.

For Lu Bu, the word "old official" has no practical binding meaning.

In Luoyang, Lin Li, the big boss, is always in danger, and the crisis will come at any time, Liu Jian can't afford this risk.

Afterwards, Liu Jian searched carefully among the military camps in Bingzhou, but he still couldn't find the name he wanted to find most.

Zhang Liao couldn't find it.

Later, he looked through the list of county officials in Yanmen County, but he still couldn't find it.

In the end, Liu Jian could only give up.

It seems that there is no fate.

Zhang Liao at this time should be still young and had never been an official in this county.

Thinking about it, I am only 19 years old now, Zhang Feishang is two years younger than me, Liu Bei has just turned 22 years old, and Guan Yu is only in his early twenties.

People like Zhang Liao, no matter how old they are, can't be older than Guan Yu.

Of course, there are also people who were expropriated by the local county office because of their family relationship when they were less than double ten, but this is not the local mainstream after all.

It is a small probability event that people like myself and Zhang Fei came out early in their teenage years.

Not finding Zhang Liao made Liu Jian quite frustrated, but he could only admit it.

After all, the county army of this big man is not raised by his family, so he can find whoever he wants.

Then he searched the files of military officials in Hedong County and Yanzhou Taishan, but names like Xu Huang and Yu Jin did not appear.

what a pity.

There was not much time, and most of the day had passed, Liu Jian couldn't delay any longer. At first, he just searched roughly, and no longer looked at the resume seriously, but just looked at the name superficially.

Seeing him like this, Lu Zhi felt very helpless.

What is he messing around with?

How could he choose someone like this?Just looking at the name, can't bear the resume?
Finally, another name was found by Liu Jian.

It's just that this person is not from his hometown, nor is he from the border county in the north.

It is a village chief in the Southern Xianglinying Army, from Nanyang, surnamed Huang Mingzhong, 36 years old.

Among the camps of the Han Dynasty, Liyang Camp, Yuyang Camp, and Duliao Camp were all set up to guard against wars in the north, while Xianglin Camp was set up in the south to guard against rebellions in Rinan County and other places. Xianglin nourished [-] cavalry and [-] leather armor, and the cavalry was still dominated by good families from the six northern counties, but the men with leather armor recruited more warriors from Jingchu, Jiaozhi, and Yuedi as replacements.

And Huang Zhong is one of them.
