When Liu Yu returned to his residence, it was already evening.
"Shiro, what a happy event, you are now a high official like Sima Beibu."
As soon as he entered the yard, Liu Yu's servant Amen came up to him with a smile. Liu Yu looked at Amon's long, young face and wrinkled up with laughter.
"Well, the bigger the official position, the more troubles there will be in the future."
Liu Yu said calmly that Amen had been a servant of Liu Yu's family for generations. These words told him that he didn't need to worry about getting into trouble.
"What trouble? Shiro, what do you mean?"
Amon had a look of surprise on his face. The young master used to shout every day that he would die for Liu Bogen, "a scholar who is a confidant," and almost followed him wholeheartedly. How could he now say such inexplicable words as "trouble".
"That's it for now, let's take it one step at a time."
Liu Yu said no more, because he knew that the matter had come to this, and there was absolutely no possibility of withdrawing.
After the fusion, the modern memories of the past life were engraved in his mind, and they all appeared clearly in Liu Yu's memory.
This year is AD 306, the third year of Yongxing in the Western Jin Dynasty. In June, the fool emperor Sima Zhong will be named Guangxi.
In the first year of Guangxi, AD 306, the "Eight Kings Rebellion" of this year will end with the tragic victory of Sima Yue, King of the East China Sea.
Most of the Jin court's central army was destroyed in the repeated tug-of-wars among the kings, and it was no longer capable of suppressing the rebellions of powerful and ambitious men from all ethnic groups in the four directions.
Moreover, the turmoil that lasted for more than ten years caused another problem more serious than the loss of the military power of the central court, that is, the loss of "humanity."
After more than ten years of inconsistency, the tycoons from all over the country have been fighting against each other again and again. There have been too many irreparable rifts and suspicions between each other. It is difficult to reunite the gentry tycoons, the backbone of the northern Han people. Woke up.
Therefore, "Flying Leopard" Wang Mi's lone army could move across Yan and Henan and attack Luoyang.
After the Yongjia Rebellion in which Jiehu Shile killed all the courtiers. The five barbarians will gradually separate themselves from each other.
After the Sima family in the north defeated the central government's military power and prestige, no one could lead the northern Han people to jointly resist the barbarian power.
All the Han people were either forced to become the lackeys of the barbarians, or they could only hide in their own forts and tremble. The final outcome was still to surrender to the waves of barbarians.
After the Yongjia Rebellion, in the Central Plains, the foreign Shanyu and the King of Heaven became the supreme authority in this land.
Liu Yu felt very angry when he thought that tens of millions of Han people in China had been tricked into being slaves of the barbarians by the prodigal son of the Sima family.
According to the original historical trajectory, Wang Mi, now the chief commander of the Donglai Army, will conquer the four prefectures of Qing, Yan, Xu, and Henan, and eventually break through the imperial capital Luoyang.
Liu Yu himself saw that Wang Mi, who had one head and two hands, could actually do such powerful things.
Then it should be possible for me. I don't want to dominate the world. It is enough to have an army under complete control. When Liu Bogen defeats Linzi, it is enough.
Then you can retreat to the mountains and hills of Dongnae. Even if you can't defend Dongnae County in the future, you can still build ships and go to sea. North Korea and the Japanese archipelago to the east are a bunch of weaklings, and it is acceptable to become a local king there.
Unfortunately, Liu Yu didn't know that the shipbuilding and navigation technology in the Western Jin Dynasty was not developed, and he was still confident of crossing the sea to Liaodong or Korea. If he wanted to cross the east to Japan, he would probably face navigation risks that were not much lower than those in war.
"Silang, Dong Ping, Li Feng and others are here to congratulate you on your appointment." The announcement from the servant Amen interrupted Liu Yu's thoughts.
As soon as he finished speaking, several tough men in military uniforms rushed in laughing and joking. Some of them were carrying large pieces of roast meat, and some were carrying jars of wine.
The leader grew up to be Liu Yu's right-hand man, named Dong Ping, who was Liu Yu's neighbor who grew up together in Yin County.
Others Li Feng, Wu An, Zhao Kun and others were also followers of the Youxiazi or Tianshi sect that Liu Yu met when he was in Yin County.
After Liu Bogen raised his army, most of the four to five hundred people assigned to Liu Yu were refugees from other places. Thanks to the help of these little brothers in Yin County, they were able to achieve two achievements.
These are Liu Yu's confidants.
Liu Yu quickly and warmly welcomed everyone into the house, and then began to order the maids to prepare melon and fruit dishes. Just like when they were in Yinxian County, everyone started punching palms and drinking noisily.
Soon, after three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, the wine gradually became more intense, and everyone began to talk about today's rewards.
"Ji Xing, it's not that I spoke ill of Duke Yin behind his back. It's not all the territory of Donglai County that was taken by you and us brothers."
Zhao Kun spoke first.
"Why was it only given to a small official of Sima of another department? Sun Shen, the younger brother of Sun Li, the sister-in-law of Yin Gong, was as timid as a mouse and could only hide from the rear army to flatter Yin Gong, but he also got a meritorious service. , this official position is still above yours."
As soon as Zhao Kun finished speaking, everyone started to agree with him.
Everyone said that Sun Shen was just a flatterer to his in-laws, and it was really unfair that he could rise above the heads of heroes like himself who were killed with real swords and guns.
Then someone else said that in today's reward, Duke Yin's clan and the Sun family's clan were all given a large amount of wine, meat, silk and silk, but they like themselves only received some wine and meat.
"Silang, there is something else I didn't want to tell you. I went to see Sun Shen today to ask for some money and silk for the dead He Zhong. Otherwise, the wife and children he left behind would not even have anyone to rely on."
Li Feng said in a low voice at this time.
He Zhong was an old acquaintance of Liu Yu's in Yin County. He loved gambling and drinking. He joined the army to avoid his creditors. He was slightly injured in the battle a few days ago. Unexpectedly, he suffered a high fever for a few days and died. .
Li Feng continued, and his voice became louder.
"Who would have thought that that bastard Sun Shen would actually say that those with meritorious deeds would be rewarded. He Zhong's death from an epidemic does not count as meritorious deeds, and he was only willing to give half a piece of plain silk."
"The horses raised by this little maid, and the horses Sun Shen rides are all covered with colorful silks, and they are willing to give them silk only after a living person dies."
Dong Ping next to him had obviously drunk too much, and his big eyes were red.
All of a sudden, everyone who drank too much began to curse the shameless villain Sun Shen. As they talked, some people began to complain that Liu Bogen didn't know everyone's hard work and allowed these flattering villains to ride on the head of the big guy.
Liu Yu listened quietly beside him, feeling more and more that it was incredible that the Donglai rebels could quickly capture Linzi and occupy most of Qingzhou in history.
The Donglai rebels have a troubled relationship. The leader Liu Bogen and others have not shown much ability except for being bold enough.
Donglai County has just been defeated, and there is so much internal resentment. I really don’t know how weak the soldiers and horses of Qingzhou Prefecture are when they fight against the Donglai rebels.
