Lu Dynasty

Chapter 187
Day by day, Lu Bu and I have stayed under Dong Zhuo's command for a long time.Lv Bu works as a bodyguard behind Dong Zhuo every day, and I'm still dawdling like that.Dong Zhuo is also really good. Later generations said that he slept on the dragon bed and messed up the harem. This is definitely something. Sometimes he even called Lu Bu to come with him!Dong Zhuo often said that if all his daughters hadn't married, he would definitely recruit Lu Bu as his son-in-law!Made me break out in a cold sweat.

In history, Lv Bu had already married the Yan family before he belonged to Dong Zhuo.But the current Yan family, under my intervention, is just Lu Bu's maid, not even a concubine.After Ding Yuan's death, Wei Xu immediately dedicated his sister to Lv Bu's in order to keep his status. Lv Bu had long since taken a fancy to Yan's beauty.So he and Wei Xu hit it off. Anyway, Wei Xu just wanted to guarantee a relationship with us, and I don't need to stop Lu Bu for such a trivial matter as accepting a maid and a concubine.Anyway, in the future, there will be Axiu, who understands righteousness, to be the main wife. Isn't it a trivial matter to manage the women around Lu Bu?I selectively ignored, Axiu, I haven't found this fact yet!
Dong Zhuo was very satisfied with our behavior of not seizing power, so he wanted to expand the troops for me and Lu Bu.After all, Dong Zhuo has four 10,000+ troops, and we, as generals under Dong Zhuo, only have five to seven thousand people, which really damages Dong Zhuo's wise image.So Dong Zhuo ordered us to choose 7000 people from his army as subordinates.

With this order, the big men under Dong Zhuo's command will be a little afraid of me and Lu Bu.Like Dong Zhuojun's veterans Li Jue and Guo Si.When they confronted us outside Luoyang City, [-] cavalrymen lost to my [-] miscellaneous troops. If I were to choose their elite cavalry now, Dong Zhuo would naturally not refuse.

I said to Dong Zhuo: "Mr. Dong, Feng Xian and I have just arrived. We haven't even seen all the generals under Mr. Dong's command. How can we choose people under your generals? Besides, we also have requirements for choosing people under your tents." Generals, if you don’t express anything, wouldn’t it be rude? How about this, I, Jimin Restaurant, is famous for its drinks, and I will hold a banquet in the restaurant for all of Xiang Xiang’s subordinates, including Xiang Dong!”

Dong Zhuo said: "How can I not be invited by Prime Minister Baxian! I heard that Baxian's wine is a must, and it has that effect!" After speaking, Dong Zhuo smiled at me very mysteriously.But I don't know why, how do I feel Dong Zhuo's smile is so sloppy!

Invitations must be sent out to treat guests, so I asked Dong Zhuo for the list of generals under his command.When I was about to leave, Dong Zhuo stopped me and said, "Ba Xian! I heard that the wine you presented to His Majesty Lingdi has that kind of effect, should you give me a few jars to taste?"

I blinked my eyes and pretended to be stupid: "What kind of effect? ​​What effect? ​​Dong Xiang wants to drink, and I will send a few cars. Why is it so mysterious?"

"Baxian! I'm talking about the kind that Emperor Ling drinks! It's what men want!" Dong Zhuo said seriously.

I thought to myself: Dong Zhuo is an old pervert, he is almost sixty, and he still spoils other little girls.I won't talk about him now, but now I have to drink aphrodisiac wine!So I said: "Does the prime minister want to drink the yang-strengthening wine that Emperor Ling drank? What I brew is handed over to the court on time every year, and the prime minister asks his servants to take it out for drinking. The wine here is not fully brewed, and the effect may be Worse!"

"Baxian keep your voice down!" Dong Zhuo laughed and said, "The effect is almost okay! The most important thing is that I heard that it doesn't hurt the body. Baxian also knows that I am old, and if I take tiger wolf medicine, my body will not be able to bear it."

I smiled and said, "Feng understands!" Dong Zhuo nodded in satisfaction, and ordered me to go back and get ready.I was very speechless towards Dong Zhuo. I heard that he raped a princess to death a few days ago, and today he wants to strengthen the yang wine again. I really don’t know what he wants.If not, then stop spoiling other girls.

After three days, I invited Dong Zhuo and his generals and scribes to the restaurant.In the private room that He Jin had used, a banquet was held.During the banquet, I ordered Huang Ming to cook some new dishes, mainly buying some kelp and seaweed in Xuzhou and using them as monosodium glutamate in the dishes and soup to increase the deliciousness of the dishes and soup.This is the method that can only be used in the Han Dynasty, because the Han Dynasty was a turning point in Chinese food culture. Various archaeological utensils show that many Chinese cooking methods and cooking utensils appeared in the Han Dynasty.

We got ready in the private room and waited for Dong Zhuo's arrival.Big people are always late.Dong Zhuo walked into the private room and saw me and said, "Baxian, I'm busy with work, so I came late, so don't blame Baxian!"

I looked at the red mark on Dong Zhuo's neck and twitched the corner of my mouth and said, "The prime minister has served the country. I waited for a while. How dare you blame me? The prime minister is serious! Today, the prime minister rewards me by visiting my humble house. It's an honor!" After Dong Zhuo sat down firmly, I held up my wine glass and said, "Everyone! The prime minister has done a lot of hard work, and I will offer you a toast!" After speaking, I took the lead and drank the wine in my glass!Dong Zhuo's subordinates are all Xiliang generals, and his favorite thing is to drink strong wine.The burning sensation of this strong wine poured into the throat is their favorite.

After drinking, Dong Zhuo smiled and said, "Let me introduce you to everyone here first! Anyway, you don't care about official titles, so you just introduce names. Li Ru, Hua Xiong, Li Jue, Guo Si, you all know them well." I've seen them, the others are..." Dong Zhuo introduced them one by one, Xu Rong, Zhang Ji, Niu Fu, Yang Feng, etc., except for the generals who were still guarding Xiliang, the others were basically all present.

I saluted them one by one, and Dong Zhuo said: "Tomorrow Baxian will come to your command to select soldiers. You don't need to give too many troops, as long as Baxian's army expands to 2 people. Baxian chooses soldiers. The conditions are high, you don't have to worry that he will poach too many people from you, if it doesn't work, I will let him recruit soldiers on the spot. However, if Baxian recruits less than 2 people, it means that Baxian doesn't like you Bing, do you understand what I mean?"

Generals in ancient times are different from generals in modern times. Modern soldiers are only loyal to the country, while soldiers in Han Dynasty, they listen to whoever feeds them.Every soldier who holds a tie is like their private property, and experienced veterans are even more precious.Dong Zhuo was worried that these arrogant soldiers would be a hindrance, so he said these words.

After listening to Dong Zhuo's words, those generals looked at me with something wrong.The stricter I am on my pawns, the more they lose, because all I pick are elites.Seeing that something was wrong with the atmosphere, I quickly told me about my request for the selection of soldiers.Only then did the generals breathe a sigh of relief.Because the soldiers I want are not veterans and elites as they think, but some who obey orders, have no bad habits, and are young and fast.In their opinion, this kind of soldiers is no better than the old, weak, sick and disabled.Of course, this is Dong Zhuo's generals' understanding of my selection conditions.
