Lu Bu struggled for a while and then smiled calmly. He also figured out one thing, that is, didn't he get his army horses from Dong Zhuo?
Lu Bu laughed and said:
"Okay, since General Xiao said so, I will notify someone later to exchange for military rations. As for the general going to Lujiang, I will go to see Mr. Wang Yun immediately. I don't think he will interfere with it."
"Then Xiao Jiang is waiting for good news..."
…
The purpose of Xiao Jiang's play is still to get 20,000 war horses. He just said casually that he went to Lujiang. His hometown of Langya Kingdom is still hundreds of miles away from Lujiang, but the hometown of his Danyang soldiers, Danyang County, is in Lujiang.
Next to it, he just remembered this place very well in his memory.
Half a day later, 20,000 war horses were driven into the military camp, and more than 2,000 carts filled with grain, grass, and copper coins were also pushed out of the military camp and taken away. It seemed that Lu Bu did not lose or gain from Xiao Jiang, but in fact it was a one-time deal.
A win-win situation, at least Xiao Jiang thinks so.
At dusk, three small Huangmen came with the imperial edict and official ribbon seal. This Lu Bu was really interesting in doing things. Xiao Jiang just casually said that he was going to Lujiang. This guy actually asked Wang Yun to give Xiao Jiang the position of Lujiang Prefect, and at the same time allowed
The general of his army established a government in Lujiang to control the three counties of Lujiang, Danyang, and Jiujiang.
Although on the surface these three counties are still under the control of the Yangzhou governor, he, the general of the army, is independent militarily. This is not a good thing for the current Yangzhou governor Chen Wen, but it does not matter to Xiao Jiang.
things.
Early the next morning, Xiao Jiang prepared his army and led the horses to the outside of the pass. On a large mountain near Chang'an, Wang Yun, Huang Pusong and others looked at the horses at the foot of the mountain thoughtfully. When the army left, Wang Yun
He stroked his beard and said:
"This Xiao Fusheng is really interesting. Diao Chan is as beautiful as a fairy. She was taken away by him but she was not tempted. She was able to make a deal with that guy Lu Bu.
With 20,000 war horses taken away, he can form tens of thousands of cavalry, which will be a force that cannot be underestimated in the south."
Huangpu Song smiled and said:
"Didn't you ask the emperor to give him the right to open a mansion? Yangzhou is already in chaos. To the east is Xuzhou Tao Qian, his old boss, and nearby are Yuan Shu, Liu Biao and Sun Jian's son Sun Ce. These forces are not so easy to deal with.
.
The three counties of Lujiang, Danyang, and Jiujiang have always been areas troubled by bandits. The local people are brave and fierce, and they are also in a place of four wars. But today, it is difficult for Ziling to control the princes, and there are endless disputes in various places.
This Xiao Jiang is the God of War and the general of the army. Chen Wen has no right to control him. In other words, he divided the most dangerous areas of Yangzhou, which is actually a good thing for Chen Wen.
It's just... Xiao Jiang has always acted out of common sense, and I don't know whether it was a good or bad thing for him to go to Lujiang."
Wang Yun was silent, he nodded and said:
"It's a good thing for us that Xiao Jiang is leaving. Even though he hasn't done anything this year, his reputation has not been affected at all, and this time he has made his reputation in court even worse."
Famous in China.
You must know that we never told him our plan, we just went to the main hall to chat for a few words. The next day he took Meiwu before we started, which shows that he has seen through everything. Such a person has extremely high intelligence and martial arts, leaving behind
It's not a good thing for anyone.
But with his ability, I think with him in the three places of Lujiang, no one else would dare to stroke the tiger's beard. The only thing they are afraid of is that he will do something to others."
Huangpu Song pondered for a moment and said:
"Does Lord Wang mean that he is afraid that he will expand his territory and become a threat to the Han Dynasty? Now that Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao have become powerful in the north, Liu Biao is in Jingxiang in the south, and dozens of princes are entrenched everywhere, even if he gets 20,000 war horses, he will be
It is still impossible to establish a big influence over time.
By the way, he looted Meiwu and only gave Lu Bu a small amount of grain, grass and money, but I see there are no grain trucks in this army, so where did the grain, grass and money go? Could it be that he hid it here?
Around here, Mr. Wang, maybe we need to send someone to investigate carefully. If we can find this treasure, the entire court can live in peace."
Xiao Jiang, who was already several miles away, looked back and chuckled:
"It's a pity that all your calculations are wrong. I have no interest in fighting for hegemony. Next, I just want to fight against various strong men and find out the North and South Dipper. As for the things, I can put them away no matter how much they are. You two can find them slowly.
Bar."
…
Five years later, at the General's Mansion in Lujiang County, Xiao Jiang sat on his chair and listened to the reports of his subordinates. Because of his appearance, several counties along the coast of Xuzhou were also controlled by his father, and they were quickly formed after joining forces with his three counties.
He had 30,000 infantry and 15,000 cavalry, and he was not only looking for masters to fight, but he also conquered several generals and counselors from the late Han Dynasty.
The person who can be brought back by Xiao Jiang must not be a military commander or counselor with any background. Xiao Jiang would not take someone like Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Xu Shu even if he had the chance. He would not accept a military commander who had the power behind him and a special background.
In the hall, a burly middle-aged man said after all the goods were reported:
"My lord, if the current situation in the world is as you calculated, then Yuan Shaozheng and Gongsun Zan are tossing, Zhang Yang, Cao Cao, Kong Rong, Lu Bu, Guo Si, Li Jue, Ma Teng, Liu Biao, Liu Zhang, Yuan Shu, Sun Ce, Yan Baihu, etc. are divided one by one.
everywhere, while the emperor was chewing turf in Luoyang.
In these years, my lord has only managed the land of six counties and has neither interfered with Xuzhou nor Yangzhou. During this time, Tao Qian was seriously ill and Xuzhou was causing trouble and you did not interfere. I wonder what my lord is going to do next?"
Xiao Jiang's appearance has not changed at all after five years. The only difference is that his eyes have become more ordinary. If he is seen walking outside, he will just be a handsome ordinary young man.
Xiao Jiang said with a smile:
"Han Sheng, you and Xingba have reached the peak of super-class generals in recent years. They may not be close to Lu, but they can still be ranked among the top five. You are responsible for the training of infantry and archers, and he is responsible for the navy.
Training, do you remember what our goal is?"
This middle-aged man's reputation is not small in reality. Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng are only in their forties now. Xiao Jiang remembered that he could still tie with Guan Yu at sixty, so he went to practice with him, and by the way, he was saved by Maha Wuliang.
His son Huang Xu, so he and Wei Yan, who happened to wander to Wuling, worshiped Xiao Jiang as their master. Later, Xiao Jiang met the gangster Gan Ning. This guy actually wanted to rob Xiao Jiang's Overlord Halberd, but he was beaten.
I had no choice but to obey and became his subordinate.
In addition to these famous generals from the Three Kingdoms, Xiao Jiang also captured Chen Gong as a counselor. However, he has only established a small amount of infantry and cavalry in the past few years. It does not mean that he cannot recruit people or has no money or food.
On the contrary, the wealth Xiao Jiang robbed from Dong Zhuo could support an army of hundreds of thousands, and the Huangjiaba treasure he obtained from the secret room of the palace could support an army of millions for decades.
