Chapter 16 Treasure Boy

"It turns out that the Yellow Turban Uprising broke out this year!"

Looking at Zhang Yang walking away, Lu Bu's heart boiled.

The Million Yellow Turban Uprising overthrew several states in the Han Dynasty within a few months, and almost swept the entire country.

Of course, to put it bluntly, the rebellion was caused by the peasants who had no enough to eat and could not survive. Although the number of people was large, they were just a mob and could not succeed.

But shaking the foundation of a dynasty is enough!

Especially in the last years of the decadent dynasty.

"It's 184 AD!"

Lu Bu nodded affirmatively.

The time has finally been set.

He was very familiar with the time of the Yellow Turban Uprising, and he instantly understood the current situation and the world situation.

"The Yellow Turban Uprising failed in more than half a year. Although the aftermath lasted for more than 20 years, it was nothing!"

Lu Bu thought silently.

"It is now October, the beginning of winter. Zhang Jue died of illness this month. After Zhang Jue's death, the main force of the Yellow Turbans quickly fell apart and the uprising failed!"

"What follows is a turbulent year!"

Sitting on the horse in silence, Lu Bu had a lot of thoughts in his mind.

The remnants of the Yellow Turbans are entrenched all over the world, and from time to time they come out to burn, kill and loot, turning into real thieves and bandits.

The frontier was unstable, and barbarians from the northern grasslands frequently went south to plunder.

There were frequent rebellions in various places, especially Xiliang, which was constantly fighting. It was during this period that Dong Zhuo made his fortune in Xiliang.

There were also constant wars in Bingzhou, and the governor Zhang Yi died in the rebellion of the Xiongnu, Qianghu and other barbarians.

Youzhou?

Fortunately for Youzhou, the Liaodong Gongsun clan was a master at fighting the Huru barbarians, and brought the entire Liaodong and even the Goguryeo Peninsula under their jurisdiction. Although they were separatist and rebellious, they maintained stability in the area.

During this period of war and turmoil, Liu Yan, a languid and rotten fellow, proposed "replacing history with animal husbandry", laying the seeds for the future separatism of the princes.

Five years!

There are still five years until the world is completely in chaos!

Five years later, Emperor Ling died, the younger emperor came to power, He Jin took power, the eunuchs killed He Jin, and finally Dong Zhuo entered the capital.

After Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, the world was completely in chaos.

"First seek the position of governor of Wuyuan County, and then win the position of governor of Bingzhou. Before the world is completely in chaos, become the shepherd of Bingzhou!"

His eyes flickered, and the fire of desire called "ambition" was burning brightly.

"After possessing Bingzhou, we will develop latently without touching the Central Plains. We only need to overwhelm the surrounding barbarians, take advantage of the proximity to the grasslands, and form a large-scale cavalry. We will soon develop into a behemoth!"

Silently, Lu Bu made a plan in his mind.

Bingzhou was the sum of parts of Inner Mongolia, Ningxia, Shanxi, and Shaanxi in later generations.

For example, Jiuyuan County was later referred to as Baotou, Inner Mongolia.

Therefore, the Bingzhou area is quite vast.

However, due to insufficient population, lack of salt and iron, and the fact that it is close to the grassland and is constantly harassed by barbarians, Bingzhou is not actually a good place.

This is also the reason why no princes appeared in Bingzhou during the Three Kingdoms era.

Here, the power of the Hu people is stronger. With the endless wars in the Central Plains, it is difficult for the Han people to develop.

But there are also advantages.

Although the population is not large, the people of Bingzhou are strong and strong, making it an excellent source of troops.

It is close to the northern grassland, and a considerable part of the land itself is grassland, which can raise cattle, sheep and horses on a large scale. Not only is there no shortage of meat, but there is also an abundance of war horses.

As for the lack of salt and iron, it can be easily solved.

Just exchange them for cattle, sheep and war horses.

Especially war horses, the price will only become more and more expensive in the future, enough to buy enough salt and iron.

There is no shortage of horses in Bingzhou.

Of course, to achieve this, there is a fundamental problem that must be solved.

That is, barbarians causing chaos.

At the end of the Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms era, the Hu tribes who originally converted to the Han rebelled and continued to harass.

The Hu people are not engaged in production and are natural robbers. They believe in the weak and the strong. Unless they are suppressed, the princes will not be able to develop.

In the original time and space, Bingzhou had been occupied by the Hu people. It would have to wait until the Battle of Guandu was over and Cao Cao pacified the Central Plains before it could be re-incorporated into the territory.

But this problem is not a problem at all for Lu Bu.

The name "Flying General" was famous far and wide in the prairie, and all barbarians were frightened when they heard about it.

With him here, the barbarians have no time to hide, let alone come to harass and invade!

Even my predecessor never took Hu people seriously.

Historically, it was what happened after Lu Bu left that Bingzhou became a grassland for the barbarians.

At that time, Lu Bu had long been called the 'God of War'.

You know, in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", Lu Bu is the best general in the world!

Liu, Guan, and Zhang worked together to defeat Lu Bu, which will leave a name in history and be praised for thousands of years.

This shows that at this time, the world has recognized that Lu Bu is the best general in the world!

But why?

Why would an unknown person be regarded as the best general in the world?

Just because he killed his adoptive father Ding Yuan?

That doesn't make sense, does it?

There are very few historical records, and Lao Luo didn't explain it. He just gave a man who had just appeared for the first time the title of the best general in the world.

No one is surprised?

Lu Bu must have been famous all over the world at this time. Although people in the world pay more attention to birth and family, who can ignore this powerful general?

Especially when the world is in war and there is no longer peace.

It is obvious that Lu Bu in the late Han Dynasty had already demonstrated his invincibility in the world as early as when he conquered Bingzhou!

It's just that Lu Bu in history had major flaws in his character, poor character, and was despicable. In other people's evaluations, he only emphasized his shortcomings and avoided his strengths, leaving him with a bad reputation.

Strictly speaking, Lu Bu's character is not that bad.

However, as the world's number one general and a local prince, he was in a high position and could not control himself. This flaw was naturally magnified infinitely and turned into a villain with low moral character and capriciousness.

Just like the public figures of later generations, sometimes ordinary words will be magnified infinitely, which will bring bad consequences and even ruin their reputation.

Of course, that was the predecessor, the original Lu Bu.

The original Lu Bu was the best general in the world when he succeeded, and he was the best general in the world when he failed.

The current Lu Bu has an interesting soul, broad knowledge, and a long-term vision. He is a treasure boy who will never repeat the mistakes of history.



"We must get the position of Wuyuan County Governor!"

With a cry in his heart, Lu Bu ordered to the left and right:

"Enter the city!"

After saying that, he led more than a thousand cavalry under his command and headed towards Jiuyuan County.

When we arrived at the county seat, we found that the gate of the city was full of people, all of whom were people from Jiuyuan.

"Congratulations to General Lu on his victorious return!"

Seeing Lu Bu and the cavalry behind him from a distance, the people at the city gate immediately waved and shouted.

It turned out that after the news of Lu Bu's return with his troops spread back, the people of Jiuyuan gathered spontaneously and held a welcome ceremony.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Lu Bu laughed loudly, raised his hands to everyone on his horse, and said loudly:

"Thank you all for your trust. Lu Bu has lived up to his mission and has driven back the invading Hulu. I believe that within a few years, they will not dare to come!"

"General Lu is mighty!"

When everyone heard this, they were all overjoyed and cheered like a mountain and a tsunami.

Several people walked out of the crowd and approached Lu Bu.

Lu Bu looked at it and recognized it from his memory as a county official from Wuyuan County.

They are the civil servants of the county such as Zhu Bo, Gong Cao, Hu Cao, Fa Cao, Weicao and so on.

In the Han Dynasty, the subordinates of the county government, in addition to being engaged in military expeditions, were named after meritorious officials.

For example, if Lu Bu is the thief Cao Yu, he is the chief, and if Gao Shun is the thief Cao Shi, he is the deputy.

There is also the chief registrar, who is in charge of documents and is served by the county governor's confidant.

"General Lu!"

When he came to Lu Bu, Lord Bo Juyuan raised his hands and said:
