The people in the hall stopped talking at this moment. They looked at each other, and were thinking in their hearts.

These people gathered because they had old grudges with Dong Zhuo at the time, and of course the more important reason was because of the drive of interests.

What are the tangible benefits they need most now?

Every hero, Qu, and Qiang are different. Many of them need food, while some need to expand their troops. For some Qiang people who have been repeatedly bullied, what they need is more space for survival and policy expansion.

But in the late Han Dynasty, the best shortcut to obtaining these resources was ultimately a person's fame.

A person's reputation is closely related to the amount of resources he could obtain in the chaotic era of the late Han Dynasty. No matter whether the reputation is good or bad, first of all, you have to make a name for your name.

At present, the great patriarchy that Liu Qi wants to set up seems to be the best opportunity.

But most of the people present still knew that they could not be the archer with their own strength and status.

But even so, some of them are still more jealous and want to muddle the water.

Xu Chun, a great tycoon in Lintao, stood up and said, "Everyone, according to some measure, isn't this the candidate for the escort? Yang Gong of Rongyi has a high reputation in the counties of Liangzhou, and has always had the style of an elder. He is also a talented general and brave man. The candidate for the escort is Yang Gong."

Yang Feng and Xu Chun are powerful families in Rongyi and Lintao respectively. Over the years, they have been giving each other many interests. Xu Chun knew that he could not be the escort with his qualifications, so he simply pushed Yang Feng forward, which not only gave Yang Feng face, but also used others to test the bottom line of everyone present.

Yang Feng hurriedly stood up and said, "Brother Xu is so polite. When it comes to qualifications and skills, all the masters here are above Mr. Yang. Why do I have the nerve to steal the important position here? I can't be the protector."

"I elect Riwobuji as the guardian in front of the formation. He used to kill thirty-seven warriors on the battlefield! Such a hero is certainly competent for this position." The person who spoke is the same as Riwobuji, and is Baima, the leader of the Qiang tribe.

Although the people of the Western Qiang were warlike, they were never regarded by the Han people in Liangzhou. Even Baima and Riwobuji were among the most famous figures among the Western Qiang tribes. However, letting a Qiang person be the guardian is a big deal in the eyes of these heroes.

Yang Feng didn't even look at Baima, and said, "In my opinion, I might as well ask Brother Cheng to take on this job, how about it?"

In addition to recruiting private scholars, Cheng Yin's family also took Xiangwu from Longxi County as the main lineup and was responsible for the repurchase and reselling of local salt materials in Liangzhou.

Although salt is an official business, to a certain extent, the border counties in Liangzhou belong to a relatively special area. The Han government has always lacked official power in Liangzhou. Many economic entities that should have been dominated by county offices are still controlled by local tyrants in Liangzhou.

Cheng Yin's family is the largest salt reseller in Longxi County.

The salt eaten in the Han Dynasty was mostly sea salt, pond salt, and some well salt and rock salt... and the salt and iron in the bitter and cold areas of the northwest were mostly supplied by Yizhou, or local tyrants occupied the resources.

The Cheng family in Xiangwu, Longxi has always maintained good relations with major tribes, which is also because they have a huge amount of salt well resources.

Cheng Yin stood up with a smile, looking like he really wanted to take over the position of protector.

Seeing that the powerful people ignored him, Baima stood up angrily and said, "You have no words to the person I have just recommended, neither agree nor object to, why?"

Yang Feng glanced at Baima lightly and said, "How can you, the people from the Western Qiang, be the guardian of our Han army?"

This sentence completely angered the Qiang leaders present. They stood up one after another, stared at Yang Feng with their eyebrows and stared at him, their eyes full of anger.

At today's banquet, everyone came with armor and swords. Although the people present were all ally, everyone was divided into different ranks. They just gathered temporarily because they dealt with Dong Zhuo, so they were a little wary of each other.

Seeing the Qiang generals standing up, the Liangzhou warlords and heroes also stood up and glared at each other.

"What? Want to do it!"

"Come on! Are you still afraid that you will be able to wait?"

"It's just a group of Western Qiang barbarians who dare to spy on the position of the Protectorate! They are looking for death!"

"You Han people, don't underestimate me and wait!"

The hall was in chaos, but Fa Zheng, who was sitting next to Ma Chao, turned his head and whispered to him: "Mr. Ma Shaolang, such a chaotic situation cannot be stopped, and the people in the venue cannot convince you... Doesn't the young man have the intention to be the guardian?"

Ma Chao turned his head in surprise and looked at Fa Zheng... but saw Fa Zheng raising his eyebrows gently at him, then signaling his forehead.

Ma Chao's heart suddenly came alive.

He was young and energetic, had high skills, and was arrogant and had the true teachings of Ma Teng. He was ordered to lead the army here to join the Jingzhou people. It was not because he was Ma Teng's son, but because he was truly capable.

A young, energetic, capable, and a strong and arrogant junior naturally has a strong desire to compete for success.

But although he is capable, unfortunately he is too young and has not made any name in Liangzhou. Everyone doesn't know him very well, so it is naturally impossible to recommend him.

Therefore, although he was determined to stand up, he was afraid that he would not be convinced.

But now, Fa Zheng's words reminded him... Isn't this a good opportunity given by heaven?

At this moment, I saw the young and energetic Ma Chao standing up.

"Everyone, today Liu Fujun summoned us to choose a guru to lead the army in front of the battlefield. It is related to the major affairs of Dong, and it is not a casual joke. The people recommended by the officials are all measured by the interests of the relatives and alienation of the clan. Isn't it ridiculous to use people to be nepotistic?"

Ma Chao's words made everyone present extremely embarrassed.

Li Kan stood up and said, "Mr. Ma's words are too much. How can we recommend each other? How can we use nepotism? Is the ability of the people we recommend is worthy of laughter in the eyes of Ma's?"

Ma Chao hummed, walked out of the hall with great strides, and stood in the yard.

In the hall, he could vaguely hear his voice.

"If you think your ability is sufficient to be a magistrate, you can try your skills!"

For a moment, everyone in the hall was silent.

Who would have thought that this young child would dare to challenge everyone in front of everyone?

Just as everyone was stunned, a voice sounded faintly behind him...

"The Ma family of Maoling is well-known and worthy of being the descendant of Fu Bo. Although they were born in a rebel army, they are still powerful... This young man is so majestic that he calls him "Xiliang Jin Ma Chao"! It should not be an exaggeration."

Although Liu Qi's tone was plain, he gave Ma Chao a very high evaluation.

The heroes and Qiang leaders present all trembled in their hearts.

Liu Fujun is trying to support this young man to take office... let him be the archer?

Absolutely not possible!

For these powerful men and Qiang Shangshu, they are big figures who can stir up the country in Liangzhou.

In the entire Liangzhou territory, since Dong Zhuo withdrew his troops, no one could suppress them and integrate them in a unified manner. Each family has two or three lunar calendars to check and balance each other.

But in the current land of Liangzhou where flowers bloom... there is only one discordant existence, that is, the rebels of Jincheng County, Han Sui and Ma Teng.

Han Sui and Ma Teng are too strong, so strong that they can conquer each other with force.

But although they are strong, they are rebels after all, and they do not have enough fame to gather the heroes of Liangzhou.

By the battle against Dong, Ma Teng and Han Sui were considered to have a positive effect, but it was not enough... But if Ma Teng's son became the gubernatorial guardian of Dong, he would probably have completely reversed the reputation of the Ma and Han armies.

By then, Liangzhou will easily become one again... no, it is a situation where two companies dominate!

Everyone looked at each other, and their hearts were uneasy...

Not long after, Yang Feng stood up first and walked out of the yard.

"Although Mr. Ma is young, he is so brave. If Yang doesn't know you for a while, it's probably unreasonable!"

Ma Chao stretched out his hand to Yang Feng and said, "Please!"

Yang Feng returned the gift, then rushed towards Ma Chao with his fist.

Liu Qi sat in the hall, squinted his eyes and looked at the fight in the courtyard outside the door.

Although he was not at the top of his martial arts skills, he was also working tirelessly to train himself, so he could understand the battle between warriors at the end of the Han Dynasty.

Liangzhou people advocate force. Even if these people have no weapons, they can be said to be powerful when it comes to fighting ability.

Yang Feng is not young anymore, but when he sees his tricks, he knows that he is a trainer and is not weak.
