Three Kingdoms: I don’t want to fall in love in troubled times
Chapter 202: No one can stand without trust
Chapter 202: No one can stand without trust
The old man's staggering figure quickly disappeared into the crowd, which made the joy in Xu Jiashu's heart after the victory dissipate a lot.
Winning isn't everything.
He felt a little depressed, so he turned around and whispered to the guards to keep their formation and return to camp, and not to attack without permission to chase down the defeated troops.
Obviously, those who are still on the battlefield are cannon fodder who were coerced into joining the Yellow Turbans. These people have no fighting spirit and no threat. They don't even have oil or water. What they have has been eaten up and wiped clean.
Chasing such people has no other benefit than satisfying the desire to kill.
When Guan Yu, who was not far behind him, heard this, he gently stroked his long beard and nodded imperceptibly.
Xu Jiashu's various previous methods - whether it was forming a formation with vehicles or attacking from behind - were not as impressive as this military order.
The former can only show that the deputy envoy of the imperial court has some military skills, while the latter is another matter entirely.
Although this man is a serious scholar, he is willing to treat common people as human beings.
This is enough.
In other words, this is already very rare.
It sounds simple to say that benevolent people love others, but few noble people in the whole country are really willing to do it.
Even though the three brothers were from low-level backgrounds, they had been in the military for many years and were used to the hardships of people's livelihood before they set up the ambition to clarify the country.
At this moment, Xu Jiashu broke Guan Yu's prejudice against scholars and truly caught the eyes of the second master.
Of course, it was at a respectable level, but it was far from the life-and-death relationship between the three brothers.
but
Strangely, Guan Yu looked at his eldest brother in front of him and wondered, he just won a big victory, why does his eldest brother look shameless now?
Not only the second master was puzzled, Xu Jiashu was also puzzled - the emperor's uncle kept looking around, trying to find his own figure, showing doubts about life from time to time.
hiss--
It shouldn’t be. These brothers are all the heroes he recruited when he was the flying eagle lackeys in Zhuo County. After so many years of fighting, it can be said that none of them are cowards. They are not afraid of tough battles. How can they do it when they pick up heads in a smooth battle? What about falling behind?
This is really embarrassing.
Previously, he had sworn to promise that once there was a battle with the enemy, his subordinates would be at the forefront, so he decided on the strategy of attacking from both front and rear.
Looking at it now, if it weren't for the elite Xiliang Iron Cavalry and the great power of his two brothers, a group of people might have died here, and before they died, they would have to ask him, "Where are my teammates?"
As the saying goes, if a person has no faith, he will not stand up. When he comes out to work, he means he will do what he says, and he will nail it every time he spits. We, Lao Liu, are people who want to save face!
Xu Jiashu looked at him and suddenly thought of Napoleon's famous sayings.
"Brother Xuande, I heard a very interesting saying." He suddenly said something irrelevant, "A lion leading a group of sheep can defeat a sheep leading a group of lions."
"."
After hearing this, Liu Bei was confused and said that he did not understand - China does not produce lions.
By the way, this was the first time he had heard of the term "Pure Land" just now.
"The soldiers will be courageous," Xu Jiashu said in a different way: "Your brothers are not here, and all of your subordinates have lost their courage. Why should it be surprising to shrink back once?"
The implication is that Liu Bei should stop being so worried about it, brothers Du Kumba.
The smaller the army, the more obvious the role of the generals. When the three brothers personally lead the army, their subordinates will naturally sacrifice their lives.
Put yourself in his shoes, if he, Xu Jiashu, was a member of Liu Bei's subordinates, seeing that the three thighs were gone, he would probably feel a little weak.
They are all ordinary people and there is no need to criticize them harshly.
"The soldiers will be brave. Zi Mao's words are true." Liu Bei nodded.
Since he didn't take it to heart, he didn't mention it. Instead, he talked about another doubt that had been hidden in his heart for a long time, "As for Jiao He's death, how does Zi Mao plan to end it?"
The governor, in peacetime, still monitors a state and has the power of life and death, let alone in today's troubled times.
Any governor, if he wishes, can turn his territory into a state within a state without any hindrance.
After witnessing the death of a prince with his own eyes, Liu Bei has never fully recovered from it until now.
In addition to marveling at "there is such an operation", it is inevitable to start worrying about Zimao's future.
Dear mother, it might affect your career.jpg
"."
Hearing this, Xu Jiashu was stunned for a moment. He never expected that Liu Bei would remember Jiao He's death until now.
Sir, times have changed!
Since the day when the anti-Dong coalition forces dispersed, the Chinese region of Earth Online has entered the [Separation of Heroes] expansion pack.
This is just the beginning. Next, the feudal officials who will die and lose their names will one after another decide who is qualified to leave their names in the history books.
During this period, there was no divine emperor to punish evil and promote good, or to arbitrate disputes.
It can only be said that the emperor's uncle has been at the bottom for too long. His vision and platform are not high enough. The aura of the governor is enough for him to look up to.
"Brother Xuande is overly worried. I just picked a bad man for Qingzhou." Xu Jiashu raised his hands to the sky and said to Liu Bei seriously: "Today's emperor is smart and holy, and he will be able to distinguish right from wrong."
After all, he is his younger brother, who has shown extremely high political talent both in history and in simulations. Therefore, Xu Jiashu is confident in praising Liu Xie without any guilt.
There is someone above us!
Ignoring Liu Bei's doubtful look, he instead asked for his opinion, "As for how to end this, if Xuande has a suitable candidate, you might as well tell me or recommend him to the court."
For Xu Jiashu, if a person like Jiao He dies, he will die. On the contrary, his successor is a big problem.
After a long period of ravages, most of Qingzhou has been reduced to ruins. Coupled with millions of homeless and hungry people and the other Yellow Turbans who are eyeing them, an unprecedented famine is inevitable unless the descendants descend to earth.
In comparison, the famine in Chang'an when the capital was moved was nothing more than a minor incident. Even throughout history, there has never been a man-made disaster on this scale.
Therefore, no matter who the next governor of Qingzhou is, he will face an unprecedented mess.
Historically, various Qushuai led their troops either to the north to Jizhou to find the Black Mountain bandits to join, or to the south to operate in the Yingchuan area of Runan.
The remaining Yellow Turbans poured into the nearby Yanzhou, causing the death of Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou. Cao Cao took over Yanzhou and organized them into Qingzhou soldiers who were half soldiers and half farmers.
Taking this as a reference, I am afraid that no matter how powerful the minister is, he can only let the hungry people go to nearby states and counties to escape famine on their own, and then try to obtain material assistance as much as possible to reorganize and resume production.
In other words, what the successor governor needs more than the ability to manage internal affairs is the connections of alms.
Liu Bei gradually became familiar with Xu Jiashu's style, and he did not show too much self-effacement. Instead, he lowered his head and thought carefully and said: "There are not many counties in Qingzhou that have not been reduced to scorched earth and yellow turbans. That is to say, Kong Beihai has strengthened his walls and cleared the country early. Beihai County still has some vitality."
"Kong Beihai," Xu Jiashu asked curiously, "Is it Kong Wenju?"
Kong Rong, aka, didn’t like pears.
"Of course", Liu Bei replied matter-of-factly: "Who else has Kong Beihai in the Han Dynasty?"
Xu Jiashu naturally knew that Kong Beihai was Kong Rong, but apart from Rang Li when he was a child, his legacy was nothing more than hanging out with Mi Heng and others, which Boss Cao punished severely.
And when Beihai was besieged by Guan Hai, he sent Tai Shici to ask for help from Liu Bei, which caused the emperor's uncle to leave such unflattering words as "Kong Beihai knows that Liu Bei exists in the world."
Just listening to what Liu Bei said, it seemed that Brother Li stood out among the prefects and magistrates in Qingzhou and performed quite well?
"Kong Beihai comes from a famous family, so Jiao He respects him very much." Seeing Xu Jiashu's surprise, Liu Bei explained: "Beihai affairs are completely handled by him, and Jiao He never asks about it."
"I see."
Xu Jiashu nodded - this makes sense.
With his background as a Kong family in Qufu, Kong Rong was in a good position in the circle of celebrities. It was too late for Jiao He to fawn over him, so how could he point fingers at him? As a local, ability aside, at least there is no doubt about his will to protect his family's legacy.
"Kong Rong."
Xu Jiashu murmured.
If you think about it carefully, Brother Li is actually a good candidate to stay in Qingzhou and clean up the mess.
The Kong family was one of the most prominent local families in Qingzhou, and no one would have any objections to his appointment as governor. Moreover, the Kong family represented Confucian legal tradition and had a great reputation, which made it convenient for Kong Rong to go to surrounding counties and counties for help.
Historically, he was able to survive until the end when most of Qingzhou fell, which is enough to show that his people are still somewhat useful.
But for some reason, Xu Jiashu always felt that there was a better candidate.
"." He looked at Liu Bei and suddenly asked: "Brother Xuande, how about being the governor?"
!
Even though Liu Bei was used to Xu Zimao's whimsical ideas, he couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this suggestion.
"Zimao, please don't make fun of me." These words were so serious that Liu Bei rarely lost his composure and replied with a slightly annoyed tone: "There are still governors in the counties, and no one will obey the mere orders of Gaotang!"
Power comes from the bottom up. If the people below refuse to obey, what they say will be no different than air.
Even in the game, high-ranking officials at the level of governor or state pastor must accumulate certain merits, let alone in reality.
At this time, Liu Bei did not have the status of imperial uncle endorsed by the emperor, so how could he convince the public?
"Since I arrived in Qingzhou, everything I saw was devastated, but I haven't seen any eunuchs." Xu Jiashu disagreed. "If he ruins his government in his position, he is a deadlock. How can he assume the responsibility of a herdsman in the world today?"
Of course I know that power comes from the bottom up, but in Qingzhou today, the basis of power is no longer the prefects who failed to defend their territory and became mere commanders, but the local braves from all over the country. With Liu Bei's performance in this battle, these people are not convinced. Disaster.
It doesn't matter if he lacks experience in governance - the left and right are just letting the hungry people flee, so where does the government affairs come from?
Moreover, for Liu Bei to ask Gongsun Zan or Lu Zhi for help, it does not necessarily mean that he cannot get supplies.
Old Liu, if you want Qingzhou or not, as long as you open Chrysostom, I will deliver it to you!
Xu Jiashu looked at Liu Bei with burning eyes, just waiting for him to agree.
Given such an opportunity, and based on his knowledge of Liu Bei, he would definitely not refuse the proposal - "One cannot judge one's virtues and one's own strength, but one must believe in righteousness in the world". These words were spoken by him himself!
However, contrary to his expectation, Liu Bei pondered for a long time, but still shook his head.
"Brother Xuande suspects that this can't be done?" Xu Jiashu asked puzzledly: "Your Majesty Lu Zhi is now the shepherd of Jizhou. If he submits a recommendation, the court will not refuse."
Not only would they not refuse, Chang'an originally just wanted to muddy the waters in Jizhou. If it could easily take over Qingzhou, I'm afraid Wang Yun would even smile.
"It's not that I don't believe in Zi Mao's ability." Liu Bei looked very leisurely after making up his mind. "It's just that the teacher is confronting Bo Gui. I'm afraid something will happen, so I want to persuade him."
Based on his understanding of that senior brother, no one could dissuade Youzhou from speaking out.
"Is it because of this?" Xu Jiashu was stunned and confirmed again, "Brother Xuande is going to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?"
"If you don't have faith, you won't stand. Since you promised the teacher, how can you go back on your word?"
Xu Jiashu looked at Liu Bei's face, which was in his thirties. Although it could not be said to be old, it could not be said to be young, and he felt a little ridiculous in a daze.
Brother, this is a state!
Are you the protagonist of some hot-blooded comic? You just don’t want it if you don’t want it?
Or is it because of the secondary reason of "You have something to say first".
Regardless of whether Liu Bei was motivated by his true intentions or regarded [faithfulness] as a personal sign, in short, he refused.
Only then did Xu Jiashu realize how Tao Qian felt when Xuzhou was rejected.
No wonder they can pull together a team of idealists, no wonder they can get tiger generals like Guan Zhang to follow them to the death, no wonder they can get heroes like Kong Ming to work tirelessly.
Liu Xuande is worthy of the name Zhaolie!
Everyone had their own thoughts and rode back to the camp.
At this time, most of the local warriors left the car formation, and it was rare to enjoy the pleasure of chasing death and chasing north, avenging shame, but the camp seemed a bit empty.
Liu Bei took his two foster brothers to find his troops, while Dong Bai and his guards also dismounted to reorganize, and Xu Jiashu approached the Chinese army's tent alone.
The curtain opened, and the two people in the tent tensed up, obviously startled.
Objectively speaking, the scene inside is actually quite funny. Wu Zhu, with his colorful face, is sitting opposite the young envoy - it's really hard for him to find so much paint in this era, and he is playing Go.
Xu Jiashu walked closer and took a quick glance. The sports student said he couldn't see why.
On the other hand, when Sun Zi saw his teacher returning, he simply put aside the messy chess game, stood up and greeted him: "The teacher is back."
"Well," Xu Jiashu smiled and rubbed his head, "Well done, much better than I expected."
Not only the layout of the defense line, but also the courage to sit in the tent.
Many times, just such a person is needed, even if it just plays the role of a mascot.
In terms of never running away from a battle, Sun Zi, who had just grown up, was tens of thousands of generations stronger than Jiao He.
"Hehe." Sun Zi smiled shyly and said, "It's all taught well by the teacher."
When he was still in Luoyang, in order to fool Sun Zi into playing goalkeeper, Xu Jiashu said, "Behind the goalkeeper is the goal, and he also has to direct the defense. It is a general position in the Chinese army. Although it seems to have no role, he is actually sitting in the rear. , the key is extremely important." This kind of nonsense, and then told the story of the Battle of Feishui to force King Xie An to hide the characters and locations.
When he said it at this moment, both the master and the disciple smiled knowingly.
"By the way," Sun Zi suddenly remembered and asked quickly, "I heard the sound of arrows raining outside stopped. Could it be that all the defeated troops have been brought back to the camp?"
Everyone has their own superiors, and once they start fighting, they have no time to pay attention to the two mascots in the big tent.
"Better than this."
Xu Jiashu made a "Guess what" expression.
"Did you also drive away the vanguard on the opposite side?"
Sun Zi guessed.
"It's even better."
"Ah?", the young man couldn't help but exclaimed, "Can we still annihilate all the vanguard?"
Xu Jiashu felt secretly happy and calmly replied: "We wiped them all out, and also killed a very impressive guy. You might as well find a few soldiers to ask him where he came from."
It didn't take long.
"That's a handsome man!" The young man ran back panting, "Teacher, when you talk about total annihilation, is it..."
"Ah."
Xu Jiashu was already sitting in front of the chessboard and calmly spoke the original lines of forcing the king.
"The younger generation has already broken the thief."
