Yuan Shirong replied: "Selecting an auspicious day to take office is a talented and great man. Rong has heard of it for a long time. Compared with it, Rong is incompetent to him. However, the lieutenant does not serve his relatives and virtuous people, but he uses Rong as the chief clerk. With such kindness, how dare Rong not work hard to serve the lieutenant? How can he waste time at home like those ordinary people, choose to take office? Now there are many thieves in the country, and this is a matter of great trouble. Since Rong is a lieutenant minister, he should cherish the time for the lieutenant and share the worries for the lieutenant without taking the liberty, and have one thing to do for the lieutenant."

Wen Chou looked up at Xun Yu, and Xun Yu was also watching him Wen Chou Xun Yu and Tian Yuanhao were all decisive people, and they were definitely not mother-in-law and mother, but compared with Yuan Shirong's "decisive behavior", the three of them were not as beautiful as each other.

Tian Yuanhao stood up after the case and asked with a smile: "What is Gongzai willing to do for the lieutenant?" Gongzai was named Yuan Shirong.

"Yong is willing to borrow food for the lieutenant!"

"Borrow grain?"

"I heard the lieutenant's 'pillar' saying: 'In order to avoid the old enemy and new thieves in the valleys of Xihei, we need to attack early', the county soldiers are unusable. If we want to attack early, we have to recruit Zhaojun Zhuanggong. If we want to recruit Zhaojun Zhuanggong, we have to have food. The harvest is not good this fall, and the county is short of grain. I think the food that can be allocated to the lieutenant is limited, and it is definitely not enough. If this is insufficient, we can only borrow from the wealthy families in the county, Rong is an indigenous person of Zhaojun. We are familiar with the amount of grain stored in the family of the big surname in this county, and we are willing to borrow it for the lieutenant."

Wen Scandal heard this, both surprised and happy. What was surprised was the decisive decision of Yuanshi Rong, and what was happy was the decisive decision of Yuanshi Rong.

He has been worried about raising food for a long time

Shatia County soldiers control city defense and intervene in county public security. These are difficult to say, but they are not as difficult as raising grain from local governments.

The place of Heishan is newly destroyed, the place is not determined, and the harvest is coming. This autumn is not good. Everyone knows that the food is precious. At this time, borrowing grain from local big households is equivalent to cutting off their lives/roots. It can be foreseen that they will inevitably suffer fierce rejection and resistance. Even the prime minister Li Jin, who has been in Changshan for a long time, may be difficult to borrow, let alone the new Wen Chou and others?

In fact, Wen Chou said yesterday that he would fight the thief strategy in the royal palace and put "grain preparation" and "epidemic prevention". Among them, there is the idea of ​​testing Li Jin and Huang Ming and others. They wanted to test whether they would stand up and borrow grain from the wealthy families in the country. However, no one mentioned this at all. It can be seen that this matter is difficult for Li Jin and others to be local officials, and they are still unwilling to offend the local wealthy families. Yuan Shirong is a native of Changshan, and he is not afraid of offending the local wealthy families at all. The first thing he did to take office was to borrow grain for Wen Chou?

This is the second time Wen Chou meets Yuan Shirong

When I first met him, I felt that he was cheerful and decisive.

Seeing him today, he felt that he was decisive and had to take the right job first, without delaying for half a quarter of an hour. Then he said he was willing to borrow grain for himself as soon as he met. He served it very resolutely. Wen Chou said unconsciously, "Is it so strong and decisive?" He glanced at Tian Yuanhao and thought to himself, "Yuan Hao recommended this person as my chief clerk, it is really recommended to the right person! This person can be of great use." He thought so in his heart, but he politely rejected his proposal and smiled, "Jun Fang is the chief clerk, so there is no hurry to borrow grain."

Borrowing grain is a big deal. Yuan Shi Ronggang took office as chief clerk. Wen Chou and others were not familiar with him. He was not familiar with Wen Chou and others. The king and his ministers were not familiar with him. If he did this, there might be mistakes. It is impossible for Yuan Shi Rong to start now. The reason why he said he was willing to borrow grain for Wen Chou as soon as he met was more to show his loyal attitude. Wen Chou refused, and he didn't mind. He thought to himself: "The lieutenant had seized a lot of people from attacking Zhang Yan and other thieves. When he came to our county to take office, his troops carried hundreds of cars of supplies, grain and fodder, and the county allocated him, the food should be enough for a while. It would be better to wait for a better opportunity to do it."

He also said: "The lieutenant is wise and powerful. Although the soldiers of Xiong Jue are brave, they are not from the people of our county. If you want to attack the thieves of our county as soon as possible, you must have the talented and outstanding talents of our county as a supporter. We are willing to choose the best for our lieutenant."

This is to recommend the talent Wen Chou and said, "Please tell me."

"Shiyi Guo Jia is a friend of Rong. Rong is a wise, capable and open-minded genius, and can be used."

"But is Cheng Jun, the person with the name Junchang?"

“It’s right”

"I heard Shi Zuo in the mansion talk about this person's name, saying that this person has a strange plan. He met for a long time and had no one to recommend him now. Now I will send someone to sign him up as my subordinate."

"The nine-men Lu Guang, Rong's sister-in-law, was strong and virtuous, and had been appointed as the county military officer for a long time. He was familiar with the county military officer and the county military officer, and he could also use it."

Yesterday, Wen Chou heard Yuan's car refer to Lu Guang, and now he heard Yuan Rong recommend it, so he said, "I heard the name of your sister-in-law and son-in-law mentioned yesterday, and now I heard you recommend it again. This person must be a talented person. I heard Lord and Father say that he is now a military officer in the county?"

"Yes, Lu Guang is now a military officer in the county"

"I'll invite him to see you"

"Why do you need to ask for it? The lieutenant is in charge of military positions. Lu Guang is in the county military commander and is under the jurisdiction of the lieutenant. Just call him to summon him with one order."

The five words "Lieutenant takes charge of military positions" are good, but the county military officer is a Cao in the prime minister's mansion, and is under the jurisdiction of the return prime minister Li Jin. Wen Chou could not summon Lu Guang to the present. Wen Chou wrote two manifestos, one by the Shiyi County native Guo Jia was the subordinate of the disciple, and the other was written to the prime minister Li Jin, asking him to send Lu Guang over to see him and send someone to send him out.

Shi Yiyuan, Guo Jia, near the Prime Minister's Office, probably will take one or two days to arrive, and Lu Guang came soon

...

Lu Guang is not tall, about seven feet long, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. Judging from his age, he is about twenty years old, although he is not tall, he walks with his head and chest, and is full of wind. He stands side by side with Yuan Shirong. He looks at his external temperament alone, and the two are somewhat similar.

Wen Chou said in his heart: "It's not a family, if you don't enter the family, just look at your appearance and behavior. Yuan Shirong and Lu Guang are both strong people."

As Yuan Shirong said, there are many thieves in Changshan now, and it is a matter of trouble. At this moment, when people are employed, Wen Chou is not afraid of his subordinates being strong, but is afraid of his subordinates not being strong at the moment. He invited Lu Guang to his seat.

Before you talk, tell me some gossip

After chatting for a few words, I realized that Lu Guang was not only a child of the Lu family of the Jiumen Guan clan, but also studied under Lu Zhi in the Qianshan Mountains many years ago.

Wen Chou smiled and said, "I have a younger brother, whose surname is Liu, whose courtesy name is Xuande, and he was from Zhuo County. He also studied under Duke Lu in the mountains of the Qian family. I wonder if Zigong would know him?" Duke Zigong, who is Lu Guang's name

Lu Guang not only has his walking posture similar to Yuan Shirong, but his voice is also similar, but his voice is also loud.

He turned his head slightly and thought for a while and said, "Liu Bei? from Zhuo County?"

"right"

‘At that time, many people learned the scriptures from Master Lu, but Guang and his brother did not know each other.

"Can you know Gongsun Zan?"

"But is Gongsun Bogui from the Lingzhi of the Western Liao Dynasty?"

“It’s right”

"Gongsun is the look of western Liaoning. Although Bo Gui's mother is humble, this man is beautiful, handsome, rich, and rich, but he is a rare hero. Guang knows him." At this point, Lu Guang remembered someone and said, "Is the brother Jun you said solemnly big ears and long arms?"

"Yes,"

"Oh! Then I have met him a few times... Yes, there is another one named Liu Deran, who is of the same clan as him. His brothers did study in the mountains, but they are not disciples of Master Lu, and I don't know if they are named in the certificate.... Is Jun the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan?"

The emotional color of these words of Lu Guang is very strong. First, it is said that Liu Bei is not a disciple of Lu Zhi, and then it is said that I don’t know if Liu Bei’s name is included in the certificate, which is full of contempt.

Wen Chou heard his contempt and felt strange, and thought to himself: "How strange, he said that he had only met Xuande a few times and did not know Xuande very well, but why did he look down on Xuande? He also said that Xuande was not a disciple of Lu Zhi, and he said that he did not know whether Xuande was "named in the certificate"? Even if Xuande was not a disciple of Lu Zhi, he was just a disciple, but his name would not be inferior to Xuande."

"Those who teach themselves as disciples, and those who teach themselves as disciples." The teacher teaches the disciples personally, and the disciples teach the disciples Lu Guang should have been taught by Lu Zhi himself. Liu Bei is not

"公" is a system of academic record management in the private schools in the world. Many scholars and scholars have many disciples. "The elders are famous and have high reputation and can teach disciples, but there are no less than ten thousand people." For example, Zhang Xing, a native of Yanling, Yingchuan during the reign of Emperor Ming of Guangwu, "the disciples come from afar. There are ten thousand people who come from afar." Also, Mou Chang, a native of Linji, Le'an, "there are often more than a thousand scholars, and ten thousand people are recorded before and after." There are so many disciples and disciples, so the teacher cannot know all the ages of the monks. In order to learn the number of years and other information, it is compiled into a book to facilitate management and teaching. This "list" is called "license". Generally speaking, as long as you are seeking a teacher under a certain teacher, disciples or students, you will record the name in the name. Of course, sometimes there will be omissions. For example, during the reign of the late emperor, Jing Gu, the son of Jing Yi of Shu County, "has no record" for Li Ying's disciple, but this is only a very rare phenomenon. Lu Guang said that he did not know whether Liu Bei's name was included in the name" was obviously a strong contempt.

Wen Chou was puzzled and did not show his expression. He asked with a smile: "Didn't you just say you don't know Xuande? But how could you know that he is the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan?"

"When I was studying the classics in the Mount of the Wu family, my children from various families had banquets and gathered together. Whenever I had banquets, my brother often accompanied Gongsun Bogui. Although I don't remember his name, I remember that he had a strange image and was very utterly speaking. Whenever I talked to others, I often said that he was a descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan." When Lu Guang said that Liu Bei "often said that he was a descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan", he had unconcealed disdain on his face.

Wen Chou was silent and thought to himself: "So that's it!"

But Lu Guang looked down on Liu Bei when he saw someone, he first said that he was born in his family.

Liu Bei's family background is not good. In the past four hundred years, there are countless royal families. Although he was the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, his family was already the same as the Han family. His family was poor and he couldn't even get the tuition. He relied on the support of the father of Liu Deran, but when he was studying, he was very beautiful in clothes and liked dogs and horses. He was completely liked to speak loudly. He often called himself the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan. Such behaviors fell into the eyes of the proud gentry children, and they inevitably felt that this person was vain and looked down upon him.

However, Wen Chou could understand why Liu Bei did all this.

Liu Bei was only fifteen years old when he was studying. It was the age when young people were greedy for vain and compete with each other. At that time, those who were studying in the Mount of the Wu family were mostly children of the great families of the Beizhou gentry, such as Gongsun Zan, and Lu Guang in front of him, not only had a better family reputation than Liu Bei's family, but his family conditions were also much better than Liu Bei's family. In such an environment, whenever Liu Bei saw a new friend of a beautiful family, he would inevitably feel inferior. So he followed them, made some beautiful clothes, and liked dog and horse music in an tweezing manner. At the same time, he used the "Follow Prince Jing of Zhongshan" to make himself too high. These are understandable.

Think about it again. At the age of fifteen, he was still in the voice change period of a young man, and his beard had not yet grown. Whenever Liu Bei saw someone, he would often say "I am the descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan." He said to the adults of the Internet Books. This scene made people laugh.

Even so, he had tried his best to follow the children of the noble families and tried his best to raise his value, but he still could not be remembered by his classmates. If it weren't for talking about Gongsun Zan, Lu Guang would probably not have remembered who Liu Bei was.

Xun Yu sat in the last seat and observed Lu Guang quietly

He also saw Lu Guang's contempt for Liu Bei and said to himself: "Lu Guang has heard that the lieutenant said that Xuande was the lieutenant's younger brother, but he was still not polite. He said bluntly that Liu Bei was not a disciple of Master Lu, and he did not know whether his name was included in the certificate. He also said that Liu Bei "every time he talked to someone he had first met, he often said that he was a descendant of King Jing of Zhongshan, and said with disdain... Also, although he praised Gongsun Zan, he still did not forget to mention that his mother looked like a very arrogant person."

Xun Yu judged it rightly. Lu Guang was indeed a proud person. His family was from the Jiumen Guan clan, a famous teacher, and married the daughter of the Yuan clan. He had a strong sense of family status. Not to mention that he was not acquainted with Liu Bei, he even ignored his colleagues who met day and night in the prime minister's mansion. For this reason, he had been a county military officer for several years and was still not promoted.

Wen Chou is using people, and he doesn't care about Lu Guang's pride and temperament. Not to mention that he is just proud of his personality, he is even arrogant. As long as it is useful, Wen Chou can tolerate him.

Wen Chou said in his heart: "The Yuan family's prime minister, Yuan's father and son both recommended this person. I don't know if this person is really talented or because this person is their relative? Let me try his talents first." Xu Xu smiled. "I discussed with the prime minister yesterday and wanted to hold a 'main test' in the near future. I first came to the county center and didn't know much about the county soldiers. I don't know why my son taught me?"

"There are currently 1,231 soldiers in the county. Except for a few soldiers in the county, the rest were temporarily recruited by former lieutenants. Most of them did not have combat formations and were not good at the lieutenant. If the lieutenant used this to attack the thief, it would be a good match."

"What's the point?"

"Turn the sheep and the wolf"

"If you drive the sheep away, you'll be a wolf?"

"Bandits are like wolves. These county soldiers are like Lieutenant Sheep who used them to attack the thief, just like sending the sheep into the wolf's mouth. They just sent some weapons to the bandits and seized them. In vain, they will strengthen the thief's momentum. Yu wants to defeat the thief with this? But he must not!"

"How can I defeat the thief in the opinion of my son?"

"Tear away all the unused soldiers of the county, and then post a list of the country, and recruit the courage to abandon them again, and there is no other way."

Tian Chou and Li Xuan were also here before Lu Guang came to Yuanshi Rong. They were discussing the "Shat County Soldier" with Wen Chou together with Tian Yuanhao. At this time, when Lu Guang's opinion was also "Shat County Soldier". Li Xuan interrupted and said, "What Mr. Lu said is, but there are many of the county soldiers with the right surname of Qiangzong as military officers, but it is difficult to expel them all!"

Lu Guang glanced at Li Xuan and thought to himself: "Since the lieutenant came to office, no matter where he went, this son often followed him. I think this son is not old. It seems that Fang Jiaguan has just been a few years old. He has the same accent as the lieutenant, and they are all from Henan. I think he should be the lieutenant's fellow townsman, but I don't know whose family's children are?"

He did not know the origin of Li Xuan, and he was polite because he saw that Li Xuan was a close friend of Wen Chou. Although he was polite, he still raised his eyebrows and whispered, pressed the straw and said loudly: "There are difficulties and easy things in the world! Easy things, mediocre people can do it. Only those who can face difficulties can they be real men avoid it because they fear the difficulties of things? In the past, Su Wu stayed in Hu, ate snow and food, and returned for nineteen years. Isn't it difficult? He never fell into the Han Dynasty! Geng Changshui defended the lonely city with a single soldier, drank horse manure and cooked crossbow armor and food. The remaining twenty-six people were still guarding the city in the snow. Isn't it difficult? But he was not ashamed of the Han Dynasty! Compared with Su Geng's actions, how could the Shada County soldiers chased his bad luck? "

Everyone knows the story of Su Wu Liu Hu, no need to say more

Geng Changshui, who is one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, Geng Gong, Geng Gong, was generous and stubborn. He had a general. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, when there were no reinforcements outside, he stayed in Shule City far away in the Western Regions and "relatively over a month". Faced with the attack of tens of thousands of Xiongnu Chariot soldiers, he fought to the death without surrender. He had no water to drink, squeezed horse manure juice, no food, boiled crossbow armor and ate the tendons. The winter in the Western Regions was extremely cold, and "more than meter of snow", there were no food, no drink, no clothes, no clothes, and the more desperate the situation, his ambition became stronger. Finally, when the rescue arrived, he had only twenty-six soldiers guarding the city. On the way home, he "didn't die along the way" and arrived at Yumen Pass, only thirteen people left.

In the past four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, there were many famous officials and generals, and the only two of them admired the most were the story of Su Wu and Geng Chun. He was amazed by it. Later, he read it again. He thought about his integrity and righteousness, and shed tears for it. He recalled the past when he was alone in a desperate situation in a foreign land, a place of death, and there were no rescuers outside. The snow fell like a mat, hunger and cold, and there were only 26 people left, but he was still on the city of Ge, resisting the surrender of the Huns' "granted the king's wife and a woman" and fighting to defend. It is rare in the world of loyalty, courage, integrity and righteousness, and is truly a model of the Han family.

Now when Lu Guang mentioned the deeds of Su Wu and Geng Gong to show that a real man should not be afraid of danger and should face the difficulties. He couldn't help but praise him and said, "Okay! My son is really a real man."

Regardless of Lu Guang's talent, just relying on his perseverance that is not afraid of difficulties is enough to discuss major events with him.

Wen Chou is not an arrogant person, nor does he like arrogance. Just now when Lu Guang showed his proud attitude, he actually had some disgust towards Lu Guang, but when he heard his strong words, this attitude of facing difficulties was rare, which was enough to offset the disgust he had just now.

Wen Chou looked at Yuan Shirong, then looked at Lu Guang, and laughed and said happily: "The prince and the son of Gong Jianqiang, I have the help of the two ministers. There is nothing that cannot be done in Zhao County!"

He signaled Li Xuan to go out and asked the personal soldiers outside the door to strengthen their guards. They did not allow outsiders to approach the hall and said to Yuan Rong Lu Guang: "Indeed! As the two ministers said, the county soldiers were unable to use to attack the thieves and had to recruit brave men again. Therefore, I planned to take this opportunity to hold a capital trial. Shada County soldiers did not hide the two. I have a little bit of accusation about this, but as Shuye said, there are many slave children from the powerful families in the county who are the military officers. Because there are no people familiar with the people of this county who can discuss it, so I don't know whether my case can be performed. Both ministers are children of aristocratic families in this county, and they also know the fact that the county soldiers are ineffective and in fact. Today, we should discuss this matter with the two ministers."

Before the Yuan family was Rong Lu Guang, although Wen Chou had many counselors and strong men, they were all foreigners and had no foundation in Changshan and were not familiar with the situation of Changshan. Now, they had Rong Lu Guang of Yuan family, and Guo Jia, who had not yet come, gathered a little bit of Changshan.

After hearing Wen Chou's case of "borrowing the capital to test the Shaxian soldiers", Yuanshi Rong Lu Guang stroked his hand and praised it.

Yuan Shirong said: "Wei's plan is very good. Even if the unqualified brothers of the county soldiers of the strong zong and the right surname were eliminated by Wei, the strong zong and the right surname were helpless. They could only watch and have no complaints to make."

The method of Wen Chou is not complicated, it is very simple, and can be summarized in eight words: "First be polite and then the army, and use power to suppress people"

The so-called "ritual first and military force": Before holding the capital test, first summon the military officers of the county soldiers and wait for the military officers, tell them in person that they will hold the capital test, and clearly tell them: "If the excellent ones are promoted and they will advance; if the unqualified ones are eliminated and they will retreat." This is the first etiquette. After the capital test, we will strictly implement these two items, be selfless and never show favoritism. This is the future army.

The so-called "suppressing people with power": Wen Chou first arrived, and there was no prestige among the county soldiers. The army was the most important thing. Without prestige, you cannot convince the public. If you cannot convince the public, you cannot do anything. Wen Chou has been leading the army for a long time and knows that if you have no prestige and only use power to suppress it, it will be counterproductive. At this time, you need to use external forces. His external forces are the Xiong Wan and other warriors such as Zhao Yundian and Wei Liu Qing. When the capital was tested, before the county soldiers were tested, Zhao Yundian and Wei Liu Qing and others were sent to Chao to shock the county soldiers by demonstrating their courage.

Dian Wei and Liu Qing were either enemies of ten thousand people or hundreds of people. It is expected that no soldiers from the county could compare with them. If they could not compare with them, they could only accept Wen Chou's despair. Even if they were eliminated, they could only be ashamed of themselves and were not as good as others. There was nothing to complain about. Even if there were complaints, they could not stand the truth, and the strong clan and the right surname behind them could not cause any storm.

Everything in this world cannot be separated from the word "reason". As long as you stand by, things can be done well

Lu Guang has been an official in the county military and was familiar with the military affairs of the county. He introduced in detail to Wen Chou which powerful slaves in the county military are military officials, and who is the younger ones in the prime minister's military officials. He explained it clearly and meticulously, allowing Wen Chou to further understand the details of the county military based on the information that Tian Yuanhao found.

Wen Chou was overjoyed and said, "You are the one who knows everything about the county military affairs. In the future, Shadiao County military will be more confident."

Last night, Yuanshi's prime minister not only instructed Yuanshirong to do his best to Sasuke Wencho. After talking to Yuanshirong, he called Lu Guang and also instructed Lu Guang to help Wencho. So Lu Guang said everything he knew today and said everything (to be continued.)
