Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 47: Xu Rong, the prefect of the cloud

There is no shortage of talents among the common people. Due to the monopoly of the officialdom by aristocratic families, many people have no chance of getting ahead. The recruitment order undoubtedly provides them with a step up. Things that aristocratic families don't despise does not mean that poor people despise them.

Businessmen were at the lowest level in the Han Dynasty. Their status was not as good as that of ordinary people. Even if they had a fortune, they still could not change the fact that they were humble. In front of others, businessmen were always inferior to others.

The recruitment order is more attractive to businessmen than anyone else. Not to mention reusing it, as long as it is recognized by the state pastoral office, businessmen can walk with their heads high.

Lu Bu's big moves against the Jinyang family were not hidden from the eyes of other families. They realized that if they wanted to survive in Bingzhou, they had to be obedient. Otherwise, the three families of Zhao, Liang, and Li, who had been in Bingzhou for hundreds of years, were role models.

At this time, Lu Bu's control over Bingzhou was not strong, and he did not have more troops to rule the various parts of Bingzhou. He could only do what he did when Ding Yuan was alive. As long as other counties recognized his position as a state pastor and paid grain and grass on time, it would be enough.

, and there are not many available men in his hands. Cheng Lianhou Cheng is guarding Shangdang, Zhang Liao will return to Jiuyuan after recovering from his injury, and Cao Xing has not returned from his expedition.

The geographical location of Yanmen is very important. If Xianbei wants to enter the hinterland of the Central Plains, the most likely way is to enter through Yanmen Pass. Once Yanmen is conquered, the cavalry on the grassland can drive straight into the Central Plains.

Every year there are wars in Yanmen. The Xianbei people need plunder to maintain the survival of the tribe. Among the counties in Bingzhou, Yanmen has the strongest military power and the best quality of soldiers. After Lu Bu took over Bingzhou, he also

I didn't change the layout of Yanmen.

Yanmen is the most important position of Bingzhou facing the grassland. He needs time and needs Yanmen to maintain the status quo.

What Bingzhou lacks most is literati, who are capable of fighting on the battlefield. There is no shortage of generals in this field in the army, but when it comes to governing the place, it is not a mess if it is left to those generals who can dance with guns and sticks.

After clearing all the unstable factors in Jinyang, Li Su became Lu Bu's biggest supporter and was appointed as Bingzhou Biejia, in charge of Bingzhou's political affairs. This made Li Su work more diligently.

At this time, he realized how wise his choice was. Although Bingzhou was not looked down upon by the princes of the Central Plains, they did not dare to ignore the combat effectiveness of the Bingzhou army. What would he do if he followed Dong Zhuo, scheming with ministers all day long?

Nothing compares to the benefits of real power, and Lu Bu trusts him very much. This is the most important thing.

"My lord, Xu Rong has figured it out." Li Su said in a low voice with a happy face.

"Oh, take me there quickly." Lu Bu said excitedly. Xu Rong was talented, and even Li Su admired him very much. When he was able to serve as the governor of Xingyang, he not only led the army in battle, but was also an expert in local governance.

At this time, Bingzhou was most lacking in talents. Having a general like Xu Rong who could govern a party would save a lot of things.

Xu Rong's face was rosy. Although he was captured by the Bingzhou Army, after returning to Jinyang, he was placed alone in a courtyard, with food and drink taken care of.

"I've met Mr. Lu!" Xu Rong said with cupped hands.

Xu Rong, who was wearing a long robe, looked like a scholar. Lu Bu said with a smile: "General Xu can submit to our army, it is really a timely help."

"Sending help in times of need?" Xu Rong looked doubtful.

"Oh, it means very important." Lu Bu suddenly remembered that there was no charcoal in this era.

"Thank you for your respect, sir. Rong will do his best to assist you." Xu Rong leaned over and said.

"Please get up quickly." Lu Bu hurriedly helped Xu Rong up.

"Sir, I used to be under the command of the Prime Minister, and I was defeated at your hands. Aren't you worried that I would agree openly and betray you secretly?" There was no doubt in Lu Bu's expression, which made Xu Rong a little embarrassed. Confidence.

"General Xu, Wei Gong used to be under the Prime Minister's command, but now he handles Bingzhou's political affairs. If there is doubt, Wei Gong will also be included in it." Lu Bu said with a smile: "You don't need to doubt people, and you don't doubt people when you hire them. I firmly believe that General Xu’s talents will be put to good use in Bingzhou.”

"My lord, I'm so ashamed!" Xu Rong bowed again and changed his title to lord.

At this moment, Lu Bu knew that Xu Rong had truly returned home.

Although Xu Rong was highly regarded by Dong Zhuo, he was captured by Lu Bu. Li Su often went to the place where he lived and had long talks with him. After a while, he became very curious about Lu Bu.

Everyone in the world knew that Dong Zhuo was rebellious, but he was an official under Dong Zhuo and could not change it. No one wanted to be a rebel and wanted to stand on the high ground of morality.

The changes in Bingzhou allowed Xu Rong to see Lu Bu's determination to truly serve the people. He chose to join Lu Bu, such a courageous and devoted man who served the people.

"Wei Gong, can you tell me where General Xu can serve as an official in Bingzhou?" Lu Bu turned his attention to Li Su.

Li Su glanced at Xu Rong who looked a little nervous and said with a smile: "General Xu's talent is more than enough to serve as the governor of a county."

"Okay, I wonder if General Xu would like to serve as the prefect of Yunzhong?" Lu Bu asked with a smile.

Xu Rong immediately felt the heavy responsibility on his shoulders. He knew the location of Yunzhong County, and the situation there was no better than that of Yanmen County. "In a humble position, I must do my best to repay the Lord for his kindness."

Lu Bu helped Xu Rong up and said: "After General Xu arrives in Yunzhong, he must treat the people well. As the saying goes, officials are boats and people are water. Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it."

Xu Rong and Li Su were shocked. They had never heard such remarks before, but if they think about it carefully, it is precisely this reason. The Yellow Turban Rebellion was not just because the people could not survive. If it were not for the elite imperial army and the chaos of the Yellow Turban Army, , I'm afraid it will be subverted.

"My lord's words, Rong will remember them in his heart." Xu Rong cupped his hands and said.

"After General Xu arrives in Yunzhong, he can act according to the laws of Jinyang and recruit tens of thousands of soldiers on his own. Be sure to guard against the Xianbei people on the grassland." Lu Bu warned.

"No." From Lu Bu, he felt the trust and recruited soldiers on his own, which meant that he once again had military power in his hands. Now there were only ten thousand soldiers and horses in Jinyang City. A soldier would die for a confidant. He seemed to see himself confidant.

There are large troops stationed in Yanmen County and Xu Rong in Yunzhong County. As long as the two places are not lost, the people in Bingzhou will not be poisoned by the Xianbei people.

"Is Ji Ling willing to surrender?" Lu Bu thought of another famous prisoner.

"My lord, when Ji Ling first arrived in Jinyang, he cursed all day long. He didn't bother the sergeants guarding the courtyard, but his words were quite unpleasant." Li Su said.

"Oh, take me to see it." Lu Bu said.

As Yuan Shu's top general, Ji Ling must have corresponding talents.
