The young emperor was very happy to see Liu Bei.
When Liu Bei took out his family tree and confronted the young master, he was even happier.
To be honest, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty's abilities were not too bad, at least much better than those of the Sima family.
It's a pity that he was born at the wrong time, when the strong man was at his weakest.
Although he was still the emperor at this time, the imperial edict was to wander around Luoyang City, and after leaving, the heroes ignored him at all.
In fact, this has been much stronger in novels and history books. He didn't even have the chance to issue an imperial edict.
He was used as a puppet by Dong Zhuo and Cao Mengde.
But it was obvious that Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty still wanted to cheer up.
Not only did he recognize Liu Bei as the emperor's uncle on the spot, he also gave him the title of General Zhenxi, and made him the Mu of Yizhou and the Tinghou of Yicheng.
The latter ones were actually discussed long ago.
Li Yunze arranged for Liu Bei to enter Shu, and these righteous credits were naturally indispensable.
Apart from anything else, when entering Shu, it would be difficult for the local officers and soldiers to attack, otherwise they would be directly labeled as traitors.
At this time, the pastor of Yizhou was still Liu Yan. Although he was a member of the Han clan, he was an ambitious man who occupied Yizhou to see the world.
This person is much more difficult to deal with than his son Liu Zhang, so Li Yunze has to strengthen Liu Bei's strength.
Needless to say, money and military resources are what Li Yunze lacks the most.
However, Liu Bei lacks talents around him, which is a very important thing.
Then, Li Yunze turned his eyes to Uncle and Nephew Xun Yu, "You follow Liu Xuande into Shu and help him."
Xun Yu's uncle and nephew naturally have no meaning, so they salute respectfully.
Xun You was good at cunning schemes, and his unparalleled wit was very suitable for fighting, especially in mountainous and forested areas like Yizhou, where he was suitable for using various strange tricks.
Xun Yu, on the other hand, is a very outstanding logistics talent. His ability is on par with Brother Zhu, and he can take care of all matters in the army in an orderly manner.
Zhou Yu's ability in this area is inferior to Xun Yu and Zhu Ge.
The uncle and nephew have many capable relatives and friends. When summoned by letters, a team of staff can be established immediately.
Liu Bei had also heard of the name Xun Yu's Eight Dragons. He was really overjoyed. He hurriedly stepped forward to hold Xun Yu's hand and said excitedly, "With the help of Mr. Xun Yu, I will be sure to succeed immediately."
Xun Yu retracted his hand without leaving a trace, smiling to indicate that he had no words.
He naturally knew what Liu Bei was thinking, which was to recruit himself and others.
It's just that you can't compare with the immortal.
"Money is two hundred thousand, grain is three hundred thousand, gold is fifteen thousand, horse is four thousand, silk is forty thousand, armor, swords, guns, crossbows and carts."
Li Yunze prepared a generous supply of supplies for Uncle Liu. Except for the horses, which were obtained from the imperial court, it was not that he couldn't get more other things, but he didn't need them for the time being.
Liu Bei's army is only so large, and it is useless to give him too much.
"Don't recruit troops in Luoyang City."
When Liu Bei, who had received military supplies, was about to recruit troops and horses in Luoyang City, he was dissuaded by Li Yunze, "Go to Guanzhong. The Qin soldiers in Guanzhong fought hard and recruited troops in Guanzhong to enter Shu."
"Don't worry about insufficient military resources. When you can't bear it anymore, send someone to deliver a message to me, and I will deliver it to you personally."
With a bitter look on his face, Liu Xuande bowed his head to the end, "Sir, I'm so kind, I'll never forget it!"
'Ah. Li Yunze was happy, "I thought you were going to say that the kindness is not over yet."
Liu Bei stood up with a puzzled look on his face, not quite understanding what this was about.
Li Yunze waved his hand and said sternly, "I'm not letting you go to Shu to enjoy it. Uncle Xunyu and nephew will explain to you how to pacify Shu. Those aristocratic families and local powerful people are not allowed to stay, let alone accept them. Local land distribution Divide the land, recommend things on your own
Keep moving. "
"This" Liu Bei looked embarrassed, "This is not in line with the Han Dynasty."
"Where is the big man?" Li Yunze said with a smile, "If I hadn't helped, the big man would have died here with Dong Zhuo. Now give the big man a nominal co-ownership opportunity, but don't push it too far."
Liu Bei fell into silence, feeling very complicated.
Li Yunze will naturally not pay attention to Liu Bei's emotional problems. He will do it if he can do it, and if he can't, he will replace him.
There are so many people in the world who want to work for the Immortal.
"There are two things to do after pacifying Shu." Li Yunze said sternly, "First, the Di people in the west must be pacified. Then there are the Nanman in the south, which must also be pacified."
After regaining his composure, Liu Bei once again bowed his hands and said, "Here~~~"
After staying in Luoyang City for more than two months, Liu Bei set out with the imperial edict. Thousands of soldiers and horses escorted a large amount of supplies and headed straight for Guanzhong.
At this time, Guanzhong was in dilapidated condition, and the barbarians lived in chaos.
Before officially entering Shu, Liu Bei had to clean up the miscellaneous people in Guanzhong, recruit Qin soldiers for rigorous training, clean up the powerful local clans, etc. There were many things to do.
Liu Bei went west, Sun Jian went south, and Cao Cao fought all the way east.
After Cao Mengde returned to Chenliu's hometown, he settled the differences with his friend Zhang Miao and gained Zhang Miao's support.
Not only did he get thousands of county soldiers, but he also got Chen Liu's warehouse supplies.
There were many powerful local people who wanted to invest in Cao Cao, but they were severely rejected by Cao Cao.
He knew very clearly that these aristocratic families were not investing in him, but were putting Hong Tianlei in their hands.
Judging from Li Yunze's attitude towards the aristocratic family, if he accepted the aristocratic family's investment, his end would probably be even more miserable than that of Chen Qun.
Facing those powerful men from aristocratic families who left in disappointment or even sneered at them, Cao Cao sneered, "We will see you again when the Immortal Chief arranges for you to wait."
Cao Cao not only received funding from Li Yunze, but also looted the property and materials accumulated by many aristocratic families in Yingchuan County for hundreds of years. At this time, he was extremely rich.
He recruited troops and horses here in Chen Liu, recruiting talents to expand his strength.
Friends recommended by Xun Yu's uncle and nephew came to Cao Cao one after another. Cheng Yu from Dongjun, Guo Jia from Yingchuan, Liu Ye from Chengde, Man Chong, Lu Qian, Mao Jie, Yu Jin and others all joined Cao Cao's army.
These people are basically from ordinary backgrounds and can be considered wealthy at most.
After all, although the Han Dynasty has a large number of powerful families, compared to the huge population base, there are not as many powerful families as expected.
What makes the most powerful families is that they have created a large number of talents by monopolizing knowledge.
After all, in an era where people are generally illiterate, monopolizing knowledge means monopolizing the space for advancement.
Compared with them, the so-called scholars of later generations are really not even worthy of carrying shoes.
In addition to civil servants, there were also many military men who came to vote for Cao Cao. After all, the news that Cao Cao was chosen by the Immortal Chief to be his spokesman had spread widely.
Ordinary people may not know it very well, but anyone with some connections basically knows it.
At this time, Cao Cao was like a rogue, with only soldiers and horses but no territory.
The reason why I can stay here in Chenliu is because of the favor given by my friend Zhang Miao.
However, he didn't care about this, because with the immortal's guidance, in the future, a land comparable to that of a big man would fall into his hands.
After recruiting almost 20,000 soldiers and horses, Cao Cao bid farewell to Zhang Miao and sent troops directly to Xuzhou.
Different from the novel, Cao Cao's troops entered Xuzhou and did not harm the common people, but dealt a heavy blow to the powerful families.
Not only did they break down the door of their home, they also looted all their belongings and grain.
Because he is determined to go overseas to establish a country, Cao Cao doesn't care at all now about offending aristocratic families or anything like that.
In the novel, because his father was killed, Cao Cao went to Xuzhou and massacred the city to vent his anger. He also dug graves and used gold-touching captains to raise military supplies.
The wealth is all in the hands of powerful families. If you want to win over the support of powerful families, you can only attack the common people, even the burial objects.
Now it's just the opposite, looting the rich and powerful families, which is really a mouthful.
In Xuzhou City, the governor Tao Qian's eyes were unfocused, as if he was about to die after being dozens of years old.
Mi Zhu asked the other side, "Master Fu, just fight Cao Cao when he comes. Why are you so decadent?"
Tao Qian waved his hand and his voice trembled, "It's okay for Cao Cao, but it's the Immortal Chief who sent Cao Cao who will be killed!"
Mi Zhu simply said, "I don't know much about the Immortal Chief, but I'm already furious right now, so I'd better put out Cao Mengde's anger first. Even if the Immortal Chief comes in person in the future, there's always a chance to talk."
This is true. Deal with Cao Cao first and then think about the immortal.
If Cao Cao were to destroy him now, nothing would happen later.
If Cao Cao can be defeated, even if the Immortal Chief comes in person, he can still come forward to beg for mercy.
After thinking about this, Tao Qian nodded repeatedly, "You are right. Do you have any countermeasures?"
"Fu Jun."
Mi Zhu cupped his hands and said, "Cao Cao offended many wealthy families in the land of Yanyu. Someone heard that he turned into a butcher and slaughtered his people wantonly in Yingchuan."
The people he was talking about were naturally not the leaders of Guizhou, but the wealthy and powerful families.
After some belittling, he finally got to the point, "You can contact the big families in Yanyu and gather forces to attack it together!"
The news from Yingchuan County has spread, but there is a lack of evidence to support it, and many people doubt its authenticity.
However, Mi Zhu knew very well that if it was true, then his family must be Cao Aman's target.
So I tried my best to kill Cao Cao.
As for the Immortal, we can only talk about it when the time comes.
Tao Qian began to seek reinforcements from all directions, and at the same time sent a large number of envoys to the land of Yanyu, trying to persuade the local powerful to attack Cao Mengde.
After all, if what happened in Yingchuan County is true, it will definitely happen to them in the future.
When the land of Yanyu and Xushuzhou was turbulent, Li Yunze in Luoyang City received a gift.
This is the head of Lord Xianbei Mo Huba sent by Gongsun Zan.
"good."
Li Yunze nodded with satisfaction, put away the wooden box and handed it to Dian Wei to "arrange the sacrifice."
The grandfather of the person he wanted to sacrifice was probably not even born yet.
But it doesn't matter, Li Yunze still solemnly offered sacrifices to the hero who saved countless children of the Han family.
When the northern land was covered with red soil and the children of the Han family moved the sky with tears, it was this heavenly king who came out of the sky to give hope to all the children of the Han family living in hell.
It can even be said that if it weren’t for this heavenly king, all the children of the Han family in the North would have died!
The scale of the sacrifice was very grand, even grander than the sacrifice to Confucius.
Putting the wooden box on the altar, Li Yunze raised his head and looked at the sky, "I hope you can live in a peaceful world, and there will no longer be a world of evil spirits!"
