Compared with the chaos in the entire southwestern Shanxi, Li Su's new career is calm and proud.

He arrived in Luoyang on the sixth day of the Chinese New Year.

Liu Bei, who had almost completely clean the job of Zong Zheng Shaoqing, personally held a banquet to greet Li Su in a very polite manner, as a gift for him, and celebrated his upcoming appointment as the General of the Huns.

Of course, Li Su made a fake birthday casually. In the past two years, in order to improve his resume, he casually reported his birthday in his previous life. Calculate the date, Li Su lied to have missed the "20th birthday" ceremony on his way from Liaodong. (In fact, he should be only seventeen years old)

Compared with modern people, the ancients did not pay much attention to birthdays like stupid things, but they still had to spend a birthday or a celebration. It was rare that Liu Bei could remember the days, so Li Su accepted it calmly.

"My brother is twenty years old and he is the general of the Central Army. This is a grand occasion in this dynasty. Only such a great wise man can do this." At the table, Liu Bei and Li Su drank three times, stroking their shoulders and encouraging them.

Li Su also whispered to each other: "Your Majesty is almost going to let me go to work outside the office. In the past few months, the border generals of other counties have become increasingly ill, and they are becoming more and more self-righteous. My brother is willing to enter the capital to be the priest and is still a model of loyalty for the border general. Since the Zhang Lu case has been investigated, it will be attacked sooner or later."

Liu Bei nodded: "There are still some matters that can be handed over. After the Shangyuan Festival, you can leave the capital. Your Majesty plans to take over my position as Zongzheng with Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng of the Northern Army, and to redeem me as General Zhenxi and the prefect of Hanzhong. In order to show your worries, you will be given the right to pursue the border, and then you will be officially announced.

After my brother arrives in Hedong, he must take care of Yun Chang's quick battle, but don't delay the serious business for the battle situation in Hedong. No matter how good the battle in Hedong is, it is not ours. As for Yu Fulu, try to comfort him as much as possible."

(Note: During the reign of Emperor Ling of Han, the status of the left and right generals was higher than that of the four expeditions and four towns, and it was only reversed during the Jian'an period. Liu Bei rose from the Du Liao General to half a square, and it was impossible to reach the left general. It was too high. The left general was higher than the nine ministers, and the Zhenxi General was only slightly higher than the Du Liao General)

Li Su has been in Liaodong for several months and does not understand the situation in Luoyang and the west. He was also happy to hear Liu Bei's explanation. It turned out that Liu Bei was not idle in Luoyang, so he actually spent money to clear the relationship, make arrangements, and made a lot of arrangements.

Li Su bowed and congratulated: "Congratulations to you for the holiday festival. This time I enter Han, I will definitely achieve full achievements. I will rush to Hedong tomorrow to clear the mess as soon as possible."

Among the Han clans, there are not many people who are now the county magistrate and the county magistrate. Liu Dai and Liu Yao are all from Liu Bang's concubine Liu Fei. They are too far from the royal bloodline, so it is unlikely that they can become the priest.

Generally, he had to serve as the chief and deputy position in Zongzheng, at least he had to be the descendants of Emperor Xiaojing. Before, Liu Yu had the most righteous bloodline, and he was at least from the lineage of King Changsha and Emperor Guangwu.

Liu Biao and Liu Yan were both descendants of Liu Yu, the fourth son of Emperor Jing of Han. Liu Yan both served as Zongzheng before Liu Yu. Now, because of the butterfly effect of "the term of his ex-official office was accelerated", it is not surprising that Liu Biao, who should not have served as Zongzheng, was the turn to take office.

Although the honors such as "Fake Jieyue" do not belong to official titles, they are also very valuable. They are generally not awarded to the prefect and the miscellaneous general, at least they must be the governor of the state, or the important general when encountering major conquests.

The reason why he gave Liu Bei a "fake" this time was that Emperor Ling of Han estimated that on the one hand, in order to show that "I recalled Liu Bei from the position of Liaodong prefect, Liu Bei obeyed his orders, and when I let him re-elected the post, I will definitely give him more", so that he can play a demonstration role in allowing other generals to obey and be a wealthy man.

If the "fake qiyue" is not added, the Hanzhong prefect and the Liaodong prefect are at the same level, so what is the promotion?

On the other hand, although Zhang Lu claimed to be entrenched in Hanzhong, his sphere of influence should actually exceed Hanzhong. Rebels will not strictly seize territory with the court according to administrative divisions.

For example, the Qinling Mountains along the way from Chencang to Hanzhong belong to Wudu County, but Wudu County is too poor and too mountainous. There are less than 20,000 households in the entire county, which are generally ignored. However, after Zhang Lu occupied Hanzhong, he must have occupied some of the dangerous places in Wudu County.

If Liu Bei had only one Hanzhong prefect and no fake Jieyue, he would not be able to attack the remnants of Zhang Lu's forces that were adjacent to the counties and counties.

Similarly, if Zhang Lu fled to Shangyong or the northern part of Ba County after conquering Hanzhong, and entered the Banyan Man area where Banyan Man was in chaos, Liu Bei also needed to take action to pursue him.

Therefore, he, the prefect of Hanzhong, has more than just a literal authority. He can also control the bordering Wudu, Yinping, Shangyong, and Bajun at any time according to the needs of the thief, even though these are all poor places.

Of course, no matter which reason the emperor gave him was based on, Liu Bei must have used the money heavily.

Liu Bei did not hide this from Li Su, and told him bluntly that the Hanzhong prefect and the general of Zhenxi plus the fake Jieyue, which cost a total of 50 million yuan - Liu Yan had only spent so much money as the governor of Yizhou when he was the governor of Yizhou.

After doing this, Liu Bei spent the same amount of money and only received one-third of the authorization from Yizhou. He had to fight from the rebels himself, and he was already very filial to the emperor.

If this is renewed every year, it will definitely cause Liu Bei's capital chain to break within three years.

But fortunately Li Su knew that Emperor Ling would not survive the next time he renewed his lease, which was the last sum of money Liu Bei gave to the emperor.

The two-year-old operation of "renting a house and becoming a landlord" finally came to the last time I paid the rent. And every time I paid the rent, I changed the room, and the bigger the change, and finally when the landlord died, I changed the room that he could exchange for.

At the end of the drink, Liu Bei also cared for Li Su: "After entering Sichuan, there is no place to give money to the court, so there is no need to save money. After going to Hedong, see if I can convince Fuluo to move the defense. Even if the court does not give him military pay and let him raise it himself, we can trade with him in private.

Just told him that if he wanted to counterattack the pseudo-Shurgunhou, he would definitely have no hope within three or five years. One of them was stranded in Hedong and Hanoi, and there was no horse farm there. It was expensive to raise horses and stirred up civil unrest. As long as he was willing to change places, we would find him a horse farm near the Western Qiang.

These past few months, I am in Luoyang, and I am idle and thinking about the geographical situation of Xizhou. I think the Xiabian west of Wudu, in Dazhong, Han Sui and the Qiang people are not strong, and the grassland is good. Isn’t it better to let Yu Fuluo go there to raise his troops for a few years and untie the knot in Hedong? Anyway, my brother is now the General of the Huns. Even if I use money, I just say to the outside world that my brother convinced Yu Fuluo by virtue of eloquence and kindness. Isn’t it the same?

I remember that in Youzhou, the envoy secretly gave Qiu Liju a reward, but he claimed to the outside world that his brother had surrendered with his perfect tongue, which opened his eyes. Now we are also a prince, and we think of the wise and the tricks that Bo'an Gong used, so why not use them? At worst, we promised Fuluo that he would restore his throne sooner or later in the future and kill the Marquis of Subu Gudu."

After hearing this, Li Su nodded secretly and kept Liu Bei's explanation in his heart.

Liu Bei is willing to spend more money and learn from Liu Yu, so this time it will be easier to handle.

Regarding Yu Fuluo, Li Su still wanted to recruit people. Although he had been robbing Hedong for about a year, it was much better than Subu Guduhou after all.

When two Shanyu coexist in the Southern Xiongnu, one must win over and one who recognizes the Han Dynasty and attack the other who is anti-Han.

The garbage is just a resource in the wrong place. If you move Yufulu to a place with pasture, maybe he can grab a lot less and try to be self-sufficient. Even if you have to subsidize a little money, the quantity will be limited.

...

After drinking with Liu Bei in the middle of the night, I found out the situation of the center in the past three months, and thoroughly understood the follow-up action plan.

The next morning, Li Su went to find the current Situ Ding Palace, handled various procedures for taking office, and handed over the seal and ribbon. He returned the seal and ribbon of the Wuhuan lieutenant, and took the General of the Central Army, and officially became the General of the Central Army of the Huns of the Han Dynasty.

After finishing all this, Li Su took Dian Wei and drove a small boat to the meeting in a single boat. He arrived from Mengjin to Hanoi. The group rode north to the north and rushed to the wild king in Dingyuan's capital that night.

Ding Yuan, the governor of Bingzhou, did not lead the troops personally and stayed in the wild king. He heard that Li Su had received him when he came, and talked about some polite officialdom and the current situation of the front line.

It was the first time Ding Yuan saw Li Su. Even though he knew Li Su's age before, when he saw him, he still couldn't help but sigh at Li Su's youth.

He just got the crown and became the General of the Central Army. What a honor and favor. Li Su's eloquence to convince the barbarians was also famous for the Han Dynasty.

Ding Yuan also arranged another boat for Li Su, so that he could drive the horses to the boat and walk a section of waterway to avoid hard work. Yewang County was at the mouth of the river where Qinshui and Danshui converged. The water transport was developed. After the two rivers converged, they flowed into the Yellow River from three or four counties to the east.

Li Su did not refuse, and spent another day using boats and horses, and rushed along the Danshui to Guan Yu's army-

Guan Yu's army of 15,000 people is now completely blocking most of the retreat directions of the main forces of Baibo thieves along Danshui and Kongcangling.

And the thousands of people from Lu Bu blocked the dangerous areas of Bailishi in the northwest of Danshui. The area where Yang Feng, Hu Cai and Li Le were surrounded was compressed to the end, almost exactly the same as the area where Zhao Kuo was surrounded by Bai Qi.

There is no way, who made the geographical situation nearby so long? As the battle is fought, the defensive side will definitely retreat to the most suitable position for defense. It is not surprising that Yang Feng and Zhao Kuo choose the same choice.

When Li Su arrived, Yang Feng had been out of food for more than a month and a half, but Yang Feng's per capita surplus was more than Zhao Kuo, so he did not starve to death. However, it is said that Bai Bo's soldiers have started to eat people recently (During the Battle of Changping, the Zhao army had no food for 46 days, and some people had eaten people, otherwise they would not have been able to hold on for so long).

After Li Su arrived at the front line, he directly found Guan Yu and conveyed Liu Bei's meaning: "Chang Yun, if the war is at this point, can't we give a step to surrender a group of white wave thieves? For example, as long as they put down their weapons and surrender, they can identify and pardon them at their discretion. These thieves will not have such a strong fighting will."

Guan Yu explained: "I am also waiting for them to surrender or break through the siege. However, it may be that the feng shui here is not good. Yang Feng is a little superstitious about the destiny of ghosts and gods. I heard that there have been many rumors among the Baibo thieves recently. It is said that Bai Qi killed 400,000 Zhao troops here. If they surrendered, they would probably be killed by the official army.

It is also said that because the surrounding counties were raised in Fuluo this year, the people were poor and there was no surplus grain, and they could only kill and save food for the winter. I cannot explain it, for fear of losing the reputation of the court, and it seems that we want to persuade them to surrender!"

Li Su thought for a while: "I'll find a way to do this, and I'll give them a step. My elder brother said that for the sake of the people, I'll try to persuade Yu Fuluo to station in a place with a lush grassland, and not to infringe on other prefectures and counties actually controlled by the imperial court. I made some money and asked him to go and tell him to go and make a decision.

There was already a Qiang man, and Han Sui and Zhang Lu were isolated. In fact, the court could not control it, so it would be a pity to take it to raise horses. As long as Yu Fuluoken leaves and expresses his opinion, most of the excuses for the Baibo thief to rebellion were extinguished, which was enough to let them see the sincerity of the court."
