Tian Feng chuckled and said slowly: "With your current reputation, as long as you climb high and shout, why worry about the soldiers not coming? As long as your Majesty sits firmly in Liaodong, Liaodong will become increasingly stable, and the people from the Central Plains will come to escape the chaos.
There will definitely be an endless stream of people. When I was in Beihai, I heard about your deeds in Liaodong. When you first arrived in Liaodong, it took less than a month to eradicate the local bullies and save the people of the whole county from the fire and water.
This kind of courage is definitely not something ordinary people can possess.”
After hearing this, Gao Fei thought to himself: "I didn't expect this news to spread faster than I expected. It actually reached Qingzhou on the other side of the sea."
Tian Feng continued: "Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, recruited me three times to serve as a governor, but I politely declined them all. The reason why I brought my clan to the east was to meet you. You sent someone here when you were in Julu.
Looking for me, I actually didn’t go far, but at that time I thought that the Lord was just a reckless common man. But the Tian family’s foundation for generations in Liaodong was eradicated in just one month. His strategy and courage have gone far.
It exceeded my expectations. In addition, the great courtesy you have given me has strengthened my belief. Therefore, Yuan Hao wants to use what he has learned in his life to help you. I don’t know if you are willing to accept me, a down-and-out person.
?”
Gao Fei was very surprised after hearing this. He never expected that Tian Feng would take the initiative to surrender before he opened his mouth. He immediately suppressed the joy and surprise in his heart, raised his hands and asked, "Sir, are you serious about what you said?"
"A true man always keeps his word. Since Yuan Hao has spoken these words, he will never break his word." Tian Feng saw that Gao Fei still had some concerns, so he stood up, bowed to Gao Fei, and then said, "Sir,
If you are not abandoned, Yuan Hao is willing to follow you from now on and swear allegiance to you to the death."
When Gao Fei saw that Tian Feng's expression definitely didn't look like he was trying to make fun of him, he immediately laughed and said, "I have Yuan Hao, and I can help with great things."
"Lord!" Tian Feng bowed and bowed to Gao Fei.
Gao Fei held Tian Feng's hand tightly, his eyes full of enthusiasm, and gently called: "Mr. Tian..."
The two people's eyes moved, and they stared at each other for a long time. The look in their eyes seemed to be that they regretted meeting each other too late.
It took a long time for the two to separate from each other.
The two sat down again. They were in a happy mood at this time. They just heard Tian Feng say: "Has the Lord recruited troops now?"
Gao Fei shook his head and said: "Not yet, Liaodong has just stabilized. The main reason is that I don't have enough manpower, so things tend to be a bit slow."
"Haha, lord, my subordinate has a suggestion to recruit more talents for lord. I wonder if lord agrees." Tian Feng said with a smile.
Gao Fei said: "Oh, sir, tell me quickly!"
"Now the Yellow Turbans are raging in Qingzhou, and it is getting worse. The army cannot resist it. A large area of the city has been occupied by bandits. These scholars are likely to cross the sea and cross the sea. Qingzhou was originally Qi, and there were many famous scholars in Qi.
There is a sages' hall in Linzi. If the lord can build a similar sages' hall in Liaodong, and welcome these celebrities into the sages' hall with the courtesy of national scholars after they land, I believe these celebrities will be grateful to the lord.
If a confidant dies, these famous people from Qi will definitely be willing to serve the lord. In this way, the lord can recruit most famous people in Qingzhou, and they will be competent in studying or handling government affairs. "
After Gao Fei listened to Tian Feng's strategy for attracting talents, he immediately slapped his thigh and said loudly: "Okay, sir, you are very resourceful. This strategy has solved the problem of talent shortage in Liaodong for me. It's really great."
alright."
Tian Feng said: "Serving the lord is what subordinates should do. The lord does not need to take it to heart."
Gao Fei was a man of action, and he did what he said. He immediately found Liao Hua and asked him to organize local fishermen to expand more wooden houses to prepare for emergencies. He also ordered Liao Hua and others to be kind to everyone who came ashore.
He himself took Diao Chan, Tian Feng and others back to Xiangping to prepare for the construction of a sages' hall.
The return to Xiangping was much faster than the time when we came here. Because we could make time, we didn’t stop much in the counties we passed along the way. For Gao Fei, time is money, and he really has a lot to do now.
On the one hand, it is necessary to recruit talents, and on the other hand, it is necessary to prepare to build steel plants and mine gold mines.
On the third day of August, after several days of long journey, Gao Fei and his party finally returned to Xiangping. He personally selected a large house for Tian Feng, let Tian Feng's entire clan live in it, and sent Diao Chan back.
In the Taishou Mansion, he and Tian Feng rode horses on the road west of Xiangping City to select a site for the construction of the Xianxian Pavilion.
Gao Fei had no idea what the Xianxian Pavilion in Linzi looked like, and immediately said to Tian Feng: "Sir, how big is the Xianxian Pavilion and what does it look like? I have never been to Linzi, so I don't know very well."
Tian Feng was also puzzled as to why Gao Fei took him out of the city for a walk. When he heard Gao Fei's question, he suddenly understood. He reined in his horse and hurriedly shouted: "Master, we don't have to go forward anymore.
The Pavilion of the Sages can be established in the city, and there is no need to build it from scratch, which would be time-consuming and labor-intensive and not easy at all."
Gao Fei reined in Oolongju, stopped, turned around and asked: "Sir, do you mean to carry out renovation in the city?"
Tian Feng nodded and said: "The so-called Xianxian Pavilion is just a pavilion that is larger than an ordinary house. It doesn't take up much space at all. Linzi City is no longer beautiful now, and the Xianxian Pavilion has long been dilapidated.
Although famous people in Qi will pay homage to the Xianxian Pavilion, they have long lost their former elegance. The lord only needs to find a pavilion in the city and write the name of the Xianxian Pavilion. As for the place to live, it can be anywhere. Qi Di
Only a few of the celebrities are famous, and the rest are not in the hall of elegance, but in order to show the sincerity of the lord, the courtesy and virtuous corporal, this superficial appearance should still be done."
"Damn, after a long time it was just a broken pavilion. I really thought it was a luxurious building. If I had known it was like this, I wouldn't have been so anxious to come back." After Gao Fei found out the truth of the matter, he felt resentful in his heart.
Cursed.
"Okay, it's not hard to find a pavilion. There is one on the west side of the prefect's mansion, and there are also empty houses around it. It can be used by the scholars who live on the ground. Sir, it's getting late today. It's not too late to do this tomorrow.
Let's go back to the city!" Gao Fei turned the horse's head and said to Tian Feng.
Tian Feng nodded, turned the horse's head at the same time, and followed Gao Fei back to the city.
When he returned to the prefect's mansion, Gao Fei raised his hand to Tian Feng and said, "Sir, please go back and rest. I will send someone to pick you up in the evening. I will give you a good banquet then."
Tian Feng said: "Then it's better to be respectful than to obey. Lord, take care!"
Gao Fei watched Tian Feng leave, jumped off the back of the black dragon colt, and walked straight into the prefect's mansion, where someone would take care of the black dragon colt.
Gao Fei had been gone for more than a month, and everything rested on Xun You's shoulders. When he came back, the first thing he thought of was to see Xun You.
Arriving at the Gong Cao Room, Gao Fei saw the lights on in the room, so he walked over quickly. As soon as he reached the door, he suddenly saw Xun You coming out of the door, and the two of them almost bumped into each other.
"Lord...Lord? Welcome your lord back!" Xun You had a hint of surprise on his face.
Gao Fei hadn't seen Xun You for only a month, and he felt that Xun You had become thinner, and his eyes were bloodshot, making him look a little haggard. When he saw this scene, he couldn't bear it, so he said calmly: "Mr. Xun, this
I have worked really hard on you for more than a month. All the affairs in the county have fallen on you alone. I..."
"My lord, don't worry, this is what your subordinates should do." Xun You said hurriedly, "My lord is back, that's great. Since this time, the security in each county has been basically stable, and the people have also received the land they deserve.
and food, and the people also wrote a letter of ten thousand words to the lord to express their gratitude to the lord. In only about half a month, the situation in Liaodong County will be completely stable. In addition, Ouyang Yinying and Bian Xi have already been sent as envoys
After returning, the King of Goguryeo accepted the gift from the lord, and said that he would always maintain a harmonious state with Liaodong, and requested trade with the lord, hoping to purchase five thousand long knives."
"These are all the credit of my husband. In order to govern Liaodong, I have made my husband exhausted."
"This is a matter within the scope of my subordinates. By the way, my lord, I just received a letter from Zhao Yun from Wangping County today, saying that tens of thousands of Xianbei cavalry were found in the north of Wangping, and they have been wandering in the north of Wangping for several days, with unknown intentions. Since
The lord is back, so it should be up to the lord to make the decision on this matter." Xun You bowed and said.
Gao Fei frowned and asked, "Sir, do you have any comments?"
Xun You said: "My subordinates thought that Xianbei's 10,000 cavalrymen were just here to test. My subordinates once asked that since Xianbei invaded Liaodong last year, they had not gone south for about a year. If they suddenly arrive at this time, they must be
I just want to test my edge. If they encounter strong resistance, maybe the Xianbei people will give up their plan to invade Liaodong, so my subordinates think they must make a strong counterattack."
Gao Fei nodded, held his chin, and said slowly: "Well, we must respond to this matter as soon as possible. Sir, how has the army's training been in the past month or so?"
"Although the army has been able to strictly abide by disciplines, if this army is used to deal with the Xianbei people, I am afraid it will suffer heavy losses. The Xianbei people are all cavalry, and they come and go like the wind. Our army only has two thousand cavalry, but this
All two thousand cavalry have been dispatched to the place. Although twenty-five thousand are many, they are not enough to compete with the Xianbei people."
"I understand this. Let me handle this matter. Sir, I have been tired for more than a month. I want to reward you well tonight and introduce someone to you. Sir, please don't go back for the time being.
Rest here, and after the banquet starts in the evening, I will send someone to call sir."
