Rebirth of Lu Bu, the tyrant of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 47, thatched cottage in the empty valley, recruiting Xi Zhicai

Not long after, a young man walked out of the courtyard. He was wearing brown coarse cloth and had a refined complexion. He was a few years older than Guo Jia. He laughed and said, "I didn't expect Feng Xiao to be able to find me hiding in this shabby house."

"It's fate to meet you from thousands of miles away, and Zhicai wants to avoid me, Guo Jia, which is naturally impossible," Guo Jia replied with a smile.

Xi Zhicai had a long beard on the corner of his mouth, stroked the long beard and looked at Lu Bu next to him, "I wonder who this is?"

"To tell you the truth, this is my general, a rebel army that rose up in the troubled times. He planned to lead his troops to the Guangzong area to meet with Lord Huangfu and jointly attack the thief Shou Zhangjiao. Passing by here, see A hut, my master believed that there must be a famous person hidden here, so he brought me to visit the sage, and asked the book boy, I didn't expect it to be a talented person," Guo Jiaxin said happily.

Guo Jiazhi's talent, Xi Zhicai has always been seen in his eyes, he is ambitious, resourceful and decisive, and he can recognize him as the master. Presumably this person must be extraordinary.

"The humble house is simple, I hope you guys don't dislike it and sit inside," Xi Zhicai said.

"Haha, I've heard Feng Xiao mention Zhicai's name a long time ago, but I didn't expect to meet him here. This is really fate," Lu Bu laughed.

"Oh, I don't know what Feng Xiao said about me."

Xi Zhicai's question stumped Lu Bu a little. After all, although Guo Jia mentioned it, he rarely commented on it. His brows were slightly condensed, and he smiled, "Feng Xiao once said that Zhicai, Zhicai, a person is as his name says, with a big heart." Ambitious and talented, his strategy is not inferior to filial piety."

"Hehe, Fengxiao is absurdly praised, Fengxiao's talent, how can we compare with it."

The inside of the wooden house is very simple, full of bamboo slips, compared to Mr. Shui Jing's wooden house, it is a bit less elegant, and there is a smell of wine, it seems that he is also an alcoholic.

The three of them were discussing studies while drinking, and bursts of laughter came from time to time.

"In today's world, the emperor is stupid, the eunuch is in power, and the name is not worth living. The Yellow Turban Uprising is already in our calculations. How can Zhicai dare to predict whether the Yellow Turban Uprising will succeed?" Guo Jia said calmly.

"The Yellow Turban Uprising is coming in a fierce manner, shouting that the sky is dead, the Yellow Heaven should be established, the year is Jiazi, and the world will be prosperous. This is what the people of the world want. As the saying goes, those who win the hearts of the people win the world. Zhicai thinks that the Yellow Turban Uprising will succeed. event".

Guo Jia's complexion moved slightly, "The Yellow Turban Army is coming fiercely, and there are many victories, but the Han Dynasty has gone through more than [-] years and is deeply rooted. It is too early to jump to conclusions."

"Having said that, I think back to the old Qin Dynasty, which ruled the six countries in the past, how powerful the Qin cavalry was, and in the end it was not because of Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's rebellion that they rose up until the country was destroyed," Xi Zhicai said.

"I don't think so," Lu Bu said at this moment.

The sudden voice made Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai look forward to hearing other different voices.

"I would like to listen to the general's high opinion," the two said in unison.

"Yellow Turban Thieves made their first horns, founded Taiping Dao, won people's hearts with religious methods, established prestige among poor farmers, and had hundreds of thousands of followers.

Coupled with the corruption of the imperial court, constant fighting among eunuchs and relatives, continuous frontier wars, the country is getting weaker and weaker, and the whole country is suffering from severe drought. Just a mob.

The Han Dynasty lasted for 400 years. Although its power was weak, it was still deeply rooted. There were many talents in the court, such as Huang Fusong, Zhu Xie, etc., who were good at fighting. In addition, the princes of the four directions wanted to take this opportunity to kill thieves. Make meritorious service, increase officials and ranks, and in time, the Yellow Turban Rebellion will surely subside."

Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai looked at each other, their expressions were slightly startled, they didn't expect that a man who looked a bit rough would have such an opinion.

Xi Zhicai raised his wine glass and took a sip, "It seems that Zhicai still lacks knowledge, ignoring the foundation of the Han Dynasty and the ambitions of the princes of the Quartet."

"Haha, Zhicai is a well-known scholar in Yingchuan. Besides, I, Lu Bu, are just absurd. Maybe the Yellow Turban Army can really win a big victory. But since we are Han subjects, we should try our best to protect the territory of the Han Dynasty and protect us. Towards hundreds of years of foundation".

Xi Zhicai drank a glass of wine by himself, with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, "Since we are citizens of the Han Dynasty, we should indeed protect the territory of the Han Dynasty, but the current Han Dynasty is no longer the Han Dynasty we want. The common people are living in dire straits, and the warriors from all over the world are struggling to kill the enemy, but Emperor Ling still doesn’t care about it, let the officials take power, build prostitution palaces in the palace, naked swimming pools, and indulge in women’s sex, such a great Han Dynasty is no longer worthy of our support.”

Lu Bu's heart trembled slightly. Guo Jia had said this to him before. He didn't mean to want himself to follow the example of the old overlord in rebelling and claiming the title of king.

"Then what is a good strategy if you don't know your ambition?" Lu Bu asked immediately.

Xi Zhicai sighed deeply, "Oh, it's not appropriate to make countermeasures at this time. Since the general can predict the outcome of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, can he also predict the current situation in the world?" Xi Zhicai continued.

This actually stopped Lu Bu from asking, such a difficult question, without careful consideration, how could one say one or two.

Ning Mei pondered for a while, then smiled lightly, "Feng Xian has little talent and learning, and has never thought about the situation in the world, but Feng Xian thought that even if the Yellow Turban Rebellion subsided, there would be chaos in the Han Dynasty."

Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai's eyes lit up, and they looked at each other, "I would like to listen to the general's high opinion."

"Today's Great Han Dynasty is already full of devastation. The reason for the chaos is that it started with Emperor Huan, who imprisoned good people, Emperor Ling, and worshiped eunuchs. He only wanted to enjoy himself, and there was even a saying of buying and selling officials. A miasma.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the imperial court ordered the states and counties to recruit soldiers to resist the Yellow Turban bandits. This was to draw up an imperial edict for the states and counties to hoard soldiers.

It is rumored that Emperor Ling's health has declined, and the young master is still young. After some time, the young master will ascend the throne, all states will be shepherds, and the princes will support themselves. When the time comes, princes from all directions will gather together.

Xi Zhicai's body was so powerful, "Zhicai watched the stars at night and carefully deduced, and the result was roughly the same as what the general said. The general is really a god, and Zhicai admires him."

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Bu immediately knelt down on one knee, "Following the ancestors without talent, I have the ambition of the wind and cloud in my heart, and I want to make some achievements in this troubled world. At this time, I am even more hungry and thirsty. A helping hand".

"Haha, what if Zhicai doesn't want to?"

"Zhicai said just now that he was destined to meet from thousands of miles away. To meet Zhicai in this empty valley and secluded forest, it must be God's will in the dark. If Zhicai does not want to go out of the mountain, then Fengxian can only visit the thatched cottage."

At this time, Guo Jia also said, "Zhicai and I are close friends, and the person I am looking for in my filial piety is naturally not wrong.

Zhicai also told me in the past that he wanted to find a wise master in this troubled world. General Fengxian is the wise master in our eyes. Even Master Lu Zhi is willing to conspire under the tent of General Fengxian ".

"What? Master Lu Zhi is also willing to be under the tent of General Fengxian. It is said that he was imprisoned and brought back to Kyoto," Xi Zhicai said in shock.
