Alien Summoning System

Chapter 321 Roots
"In the six counties of Jiangdong, only Wu Jun, Kuaiji, and Danyang are left. Liu Biao, a household dog, can also fight the Yangtze River and divide half of Jiangdong!" report, shook his head and sighed.

"This fact is no wonder that the five wives, Liu Biao was newly assisted by Liu Bei. Under Liu Bei's tent, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Tai Shici were four fierce generals, and Liu Biao interfered from the side, so that our army could not fully respond to the enemy. Take the opportunity to cross the Yangtze River." Zhang Ning said from the side.

"This is the biggest mistake." Zhuo Ao shook his head and said, "Liu Biao is obviously afraid of Liu Bei. He should divide them up and make them dirty. In this way, Zhang Ning, you are not qualified as a military adviser."

Zhang Ning couldn't help being silent when he heard the words, Xiao Zhao and the five daughters stood behind Zhang Ning, like a child who did something wrong, Zhuo Ao couldn't help laughing secretly.

"Then I wonder what Mr. Zhuo's plan is to solve the current embarrassing situation?" Lu Lingqi brought Sun Shangxiang and Zou Yulan in one by one. Except for the one who helped them subdue them, I don't know the others.

"Of course there are strategies, Xiao Zhao, let me introduce some generals first." Zhuo Ao looked at the people behind Guan Hai and the others, and some of them were quite imposing.

"Yes." Xiao Zhao nodded, and said to Guan Hai, "Guan Hai, Zhou Cang, and Pei Yuanshao, my lord should recognize them."

"I have seen Mr. Zhuo." The three of Guan Hai immediately saluted Zhuo Ao with respectful expressions. Back then, Zhuo Ao led them to fight in the north and south, and forcibly preserved the new force of the Yellow Turban and laid a foundation. Zhang Ning and The third general Guan Hai admired Zhuo Ao in his heart.

"This is General Gan Ninggan of the Jinfan Camp." Xiao Zhao pointed to the last three people who came in and said, "There are also General Zhou Tai and General Jiang Qin. They were also heroes who fought across the Yangtze River in the past. Later, they came to vote because of our kindness."

"There are great generals, but they can't be reused. I don't know if it's because you don't want to, or because they have ignorant eyes, but today, since I'm here, I want to ask the three generals, would they continue to serve our army? " Zhuo Ao looked at the three of them and asked.

The three of Gan Ning looked at Zhuo Ao in surprise, this should be the first time they met, the people in front of them, how would they know what they are capable of?

Gan Ning stepped forward and said loudly: "I don't know how Mr. Zhuo knows the skills of my three brothers. Ning has a good memory, but he doesn't remember seeing Mr. before."

"Though dragons are sometimes hidden in the grass, they are different from insects. My eyes are not blind yet. The general's demeanor, which is neither humble nor overbearing, is not something ordinary people can have. The light in the eyes is different from mediocrity." Zhuo Ao smiled.

"But I don't know, who will lead the Jiangdong Army in the future?" Zhou Tai asked coldly. This is a very important question. Judging from the performance of Xiaozhao's five daughters before, they are not the ones who will make a big deal. If they are not grateful for them Ender, the three of them may have already left.

Others couldn't help but look at Zhuo Ao when they heard the words. People like Zhang Ning and Guan Hai who had followed Zhuo Ao naturally knew how powerful Zhuo Ao was. Now they heard the words and hoped that Zhuo Ao could stay, but it felt a little sorry for Xiao Zhao and the others. .

"I'm the main one. There is no need to worry about this matter." Zhuo Ao said in a deep voice.

After everyone heard the words, they looked at Xiao Zhao and the others again. Xiao Zhao shrugged and said calmly, "You generals don't have to be suspicious. Our sisters are also generals now, just like you generals."

"So, my lord, please accept Gan Ning's obeisance." Gan Ning and the three immediately bowed down.

"My lord, please accept Lu Lingqi's respect." Lu Lingqi's eyes were a little excited.

"Don't think about it. After all, we just met for the first time. You don't know who I am." Zhuo Ao laughed.

"The last general is ashamed." Gan Ning said: "In the past, when the lord took the remnant of the Yellow Turban and went to fight in the world, the lord's name was already very popular. The reason why he joined here is also to hope that one day he will be able to obey the lord's command."

Lu Lingqi said in a deep voice: "My father also praised the lord before he was alive, saying that the lord is the only person in the world who can convince him to lose on the battlefield."

Xiao Zhao and the others didn't realize it, but the others couldn't help being slightly surprised. Who is Lu Lingqi's father?That is an existence recognized by the world as invincible on the battlefield, the tiger Lu Bu, a character who even Lu Bu thinks he is invincible on the battlefield, how powerful is that.

"Okay, since there is no objection, let's talk about the next thing about Jiangdong." Zhuo Ao nodded, defeating Lu Bu has nothing to be proud of.

"Yes, my lord, although Liu Bei now occupies half of Jiangdong, his foothold is not stable after all, and the general is willing to lead troops to conquer at the end." Lu Lingqi said first.

"Wrong." Zhuo Ao shook his head: "Liu Bei not only has a solid foothold, but also has a more solid foundation than ours."

"This..." Gan Ning frowned, "Why?"

"Although there are many reasons for Jingzhou's defeat, do you know where the most fundamental problem is?" Zhuo Ao looked at the crowd and asked.

"Fundamental problem?" Everyone looked at Zhuo Ao suspiciously.

"We are unpopular." Zhuo Ao said in a deep voice.

"How is this possible? When the generals governed, although they did not achieve much, they were quite friendly to the people under their rule. It can be said that they would rather suffer themselves than the people." Gan Ning frowned.

"What's the result? Did you win the love of the common people?" Zhuo Ao asked.

Everyone couldn't help being silent when they heard the words.

"One thing, everyone may not have thought it through clearly, so we treat our people equally, do you know what our identity is?" Zhuo Ao looked at everyone, and said word by word: "Thieves, no matter what the reason is Be a thief, but that's a fact we can't change."

"But ordinary people, how do they know this? We love the people like our sons, and treat all people equally regardless of their wealth or wealth. Why are they not supported by the people?" Xiao Zhao asked. This is what makes them most sad.

"Equal treatment?" Zhuo Ao shook his head and said: "It is precisely because of the same treatment that people will be hostile. Classes will always exist. For ordinary people, you put them on the same level as noble families. To treat them, not only will they not be grateful, but they will be terrified, and for the noble family, this will make them feel insulted, don't forget, the public opinion in this world, for now, is in the hands of these people In your hands, your kindness to the people, after some public opinion beautification, this credit will not be credited to you, but to them. I can even think of how they would say to the people. Take taxes as an example, according to the imperial court. As a result, it will be between seven to two draws. We will lower the tax to five draws or one ten draws. taxes."

"Then why..." Lu Lingqi frowned. Lu Bu had encountered this kind of problem before, but until now, he still didn't know what the problem was.

"Because the people who collect taxes come from aristocratic families." Zhuo Ao looked at everyone and said, "This is a problem that no prince can avoid. The gentry of aristocratic families are the main body of this world. They don't need to do anything, just take ten of us. Let’s say that when they collect taxes from the people, they can draw three out of ten, and then tell the people that this is what they risked their lives to win for everyone. In this way, the people will only be grateful to them and not to us. In the future, they will consciously or unintentionally publicize our origin and our past to the people, and always put the word "thief" on us."

"We only take [-]%, but they want to take [-]%, and finally let them gain fame. How do I feel that these wealthy gentry are thieves?" Gan Ning stared.

"That's true, but they are the thieves of the world, no matter in terms of grade or technical content, they are more than a step above us." Zhuo Ao nodded.

"My lord, are we going to take these gentry from aristocratic families now?" Lu Lingqi said with evil eyes. Although Lu Bu was defeated by Cao Cao back then, thinking about it now, there are also big reasons for these secret deeds.

"That will only speed up our demise. The reason why I say this is just to tell everyone where the root of the problem lies. Liu Bei is the uncle of the Great Han Emperor. Just because of this name, he is more popular than us in Jiangdong, so he has a foothold in the future. If we attack at this time, we will be the ones who will suffer." Zhuo Ao laughed.

"Then what should we do, is it possible to watch him drive us to death little by little?" Jiang Qin frowned.

"It's not like that, Liu Bei has his shortcomings, his foundation is indeed unstable." Zhuo Ao laughed.

"Uh... my lord, you just said..." Guan Hai stared.

"Yes, I said just now that his foundation is very stable, but this is not contradictory." Zhuo Ao said: "It is said that Liu Bei's foundation is solid, that is compared to our group of thieves, but compared to Liu Jingsheng, his The foundation is not stable enough."

"Liu Jingsheng?" Zhang Ning frowned, "But my lord, they are brothers of the same clan, and after Liu Bei occupied Yuzhang, he also offered to hand it over to Liu Jingsheng, but Liu Jingsheng refused."

"That's why you don't see it deeply enough." Zhuo Ao smiled and said, "Liu Bei has great ambitions. He voted for Liu Biao at the beginning, so he didn't intend to replace him. Unfortunately, Liu Biao is not a mediocre person. He seems to be close and respectful. In fact, There is an irreconcilable contradiction between the two. It is impossible for Liu Jingsheng to give up the foundation he has laid down by himself to Liu Bei. However, if Liu Bei wants to fulfill his ambition, go north to the Central Plains and help the Han Dynasty, he must get Jingzhou, so It is not too difficult to provoke the relationship between them."

"How to separate?" Zhang Ning asked.

"Don't worry about it." Zhuo Ao said, "Although Liu Xuande and I are enemies now, we had a friendship before the Hulao Pass. Guan Hai, please run for me and send a letter. In addition, he When he first came to Jiangdong, the Jiangdong gentry might not be willing to help him wholeheartedly, so they sent him a few more carts of food and grass. Remember, the momentum must be loud, and as many people as possible must know that although Liu Xuande and I are now in different camps, we have a clear distinction between public and private interests. Still friends."

"Uh... yes." Guan Hai was a little dazed upon hearing this, but still bowed to accept the order.
