"I didn't expect that Yan Zhong would come to Bingzhou and approach the lord in this way!"

Jia Xu said with a smile.

"But Yan Zhong is still the same as before. He is very ambitious and talented and impulsive, and he actually makes such a stupid suggestion to his lord. It's really foolish."

Jia Xu did not help Yan Zhong say good things because Yan Zhong was a fellow villager, but instead criticized Yan Zhong as worthless.

"Is old man crazy? I'm so passionate but not a little bit of mind. Since Mr. Jia knows him, I'll order someone to let him go."

Lu Bu said indifferently, Jia Xu helped him out of advice, which was a great contribution. Since he knew Yan Zhong and was a fellow villager, he had no big grudge with Yan Zhong. It would be better to give Jia Xu a face and let it go.

"The lord doesn't have to be like this because of me. Yan Zhong is rude to his lord and should be imprisoned."

Jia Xu shook his head, unwilling to let Lu Bu betrayal because of himself.

"Mr. Jia misunderstood. There is a reason why I let him go, but he really didn't commit any crime. I don't care about such a rude word. I can't control my mouth on others. Even if I didn't scold me back then, what about it in secret?"

Lu Bu did not think of putting people in prison just because of an indifferent insult. He was more careful than to prevent rivers. The river could only guide them and let them flow away. Can his mouth block others?

"The lord is kind, but he does not follow the rules and cannot be square. Now the lord is in charge of Bingzhou and has a noble status. He is not something that Yan Zhong can insult."

However, Jia Xu insisted that rules are very important and these people should not be spared easily.

"Then follow Mr. Jia, please keep him for a few days and teach him some lessons."

Lu Bu no longer insisted. He happened to have several heads of the family in prison, so it would be nice to let these people be their companions. The families who agreed to deliver the land had already sent all the land deeds. As for the families of Laurie, it depends on how long they wanted to resist. Those who are used to being rich and well-behaved probably cannot bear the pain in the prison.

"Actually, this Yan Zhong is still useful."

Jia Xu suddenly said with a strange smile.

Jia Xu's gloomy smile suddenly reminded Lu Bu of a sentence, "My fellow villagers will not discuss it when they see you. Jia Xu does not care about the feelings of fellow villagers at all, but one is Hanyang County and the other is Wuwei County, and it is also very far away, so he cannot be considered a fellow villager."

"Lord, Yan Zhong still has some influence in Liangzhou. If the lord wants to capture Liangzhou, Yan Zhong will come forward, at least 20% of the military will be in trouble."

Jia Xu raised his two fingers and said with a smile to Lu Bu.

This scissor hand made Lu Bu laugh and cry, but those 20% of the military affairs really touched Lu Bu. He didn't expect Yan Zhong to have such ability.

"The lord doesn't know that although the Yan family is not famous, they are also a big clan in Liangzhou, and they are still the kind of big clan that has been passed down for more than a hundred years. The Yan family has liked to marry other big clans in Liangzhou throughout the ages, so this Yan Zhong is of some use."

Jia Xu continued to explain to Lu Bu.

"That's it, then leave him behind."

Lu Bu nodded.

"Not to talk about Yan Zhong, Luoyang has just heard secret security. Liu Hong was dissatisfied with Huangfu Song's defeat in Quyang. Although the Yellow Turban bandit leader was killed in several battles in Jizhou, most of the bandits escaped. Now, the various places are still uneasy. Huangfu Song can't escape the blame, but considering that he is still worthy of his merits, he will remove the seal of Jizhou General, take back the Left Cavalry General, cut off the fief of 6,000 households, and be demoted to Duxiang Marquis, and return to Luoyang to wait for use."

Lu Bu took out another roll of paper and handed it to Jia Xu. This was the news that Luoyang had just sent a letter back from Fei Ge.

"The Yellow Turban Army was just destroyed, and Liu Hong had to deal with the heroes before he could even sit down. This approach may disappoint those soldiers who fought bloody battles."

Lu Bu said with a mocking look on his face, "For the sake of kindness, it is necessary to have military merit rewards. Only in this way can the enthusiasm of soldiers be guaranteed. Like Liu Hong, I just rewarded them today and found a reason to take them back tomorrow. Who else would really work hard?"

"Thinking about Jian Shuo's defeat just now, the losses were heavy. Liu Hong only scolded him a few times, Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan were only punished him a few times, and he was sentenced to one year. Yuan Shu was not at all because he was responsible for logistics."

Lu Bu was speechless. This kind of injustice in rewards and punishments was really amazing.

"Although some eunuchs were greedy, Liu Hong probably thought that the title of the previous one was too heavy. Let's not talk about other generals. Huang Fu Song was granted the title of the county marquis, the left chariot and cavalry general, and the fief of 8,000 households and the governor of Jizhou. If there is another war in this title, Huangfu Song will be rewarded without any reward."

Jia Xu said after reading the notes.

"The reward is beyond reward? Who is the fault of his own mind? I am afraid that the soldiers will feel resentful in their hearts after doing this. If they want to cut it, they will come little by little. This time, most of the rewards will be taken back. How can people keep their hearts and face? Just now, they shouted that they had shined their lintels, and they had nothing in the next moment. Who can stand such a gap? They want the horse to run away but they don't want the horse to eat grass. Liu Hong is destroying himself."

Lu Bu said with a chuckling.

"Liu Hong has helped us solve the threat from the east. Huangfu Song is in Jizhou, so Changshan Kingdom cannot be really safe. Now that Huangfu Song has left, there is no need to worry about the safety of Changshan Kingdom."

Jia Xu breathed a sigh of relief. Huangfu Song was a difficult opponent. It was not a good thing to have such a dangerous person next to him. He had thought of many ways, but they were all very troublesome. It was not easy to defeat Huangfu Song. From a military perspective alone, Jia Xu did not defeat me than Huangfu Song.

"Who said no? The biggest problem was solved by Liu Hong for me. He is such a good person!"

Lu Bu laughed, if Liu Hong was in front of him, he would definitely thank him.

"Actually, Liu Hong is probably also suspicious of Huangfu Song. Now Huangfu Song is famous all over the world and leads the position of Jizhou. If he cultivates power in Jizhou, it would be amazing. But this approach is really a bit extreme. Fortunately, Huangfu Song, if he is a rebellious person, it would look good."

If others don’t say it, if Liu Hong dares to waive Dong Zhuo’s title of prefect, and wants to quit Dong Zhuo’s military power, and wants Dong Zhuo to return to Luoyang to retain it, Dong Zhuo may have risen up directly.

"Mr. Jia, since there is no threat to the east, Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan from the south are also seriously injured. We should be able to plan to attack the Xianbei people in a few months."

Lu Bu looked at Jia Xu again and said, "Originally, Lu Bu didn't dare to lead a large army into the grassland." Bingzhou is such a large area, so he can't draw too many troops to the grassland, but now he has gone the biggest threat, and there is not enough left. Lu Bu can concentrate on dealing with the grassland.

"Don't worry, lord, I will definitely give you a perfect combat plan."

Jia Xu bowed to Lu Bu. Zhang Liao was responsible for the war against the Xianbei people next year, but now that Huangfu Song has left Jizhou, Lu Bu can free his hands to go to the north.

"Well, Mr. Jia is more concerned about this matter, I'm waiting for the good news from Mr. Jia."
