The reason why Yan Qing is willing to take the risk of Tai A inverted hold, also want to call Zhou Yu first came to the post of Lujiang governor, in addition to those he said out on the surface of the reason, there are two reasons.

First, Zhou Yu and Lu Kang are from the Jiangdong family, are quite prestigious, flat transfer transfer, even if anyone can see the intention of their defense, due to the interests of the damaged and the beneficiaries of the big families of the people, still in the scope of tolerance, not to be touched have to resist the bottom line.

The history of Sun Ce by Yuan Shu's intention to conquer only listen to the emperor's orders Lu Kang, spent two years to besiege him to death, will eat enough of this loss, the only way to appoint Li Shu to make compromises. So much so that his brother Sun Quan in power, but also for many years to take Lujiang this piece of unregulated area is not much to do, looking for by the capture, rather than slaughtering the city captive soldiers, not like the treatment of the side of the town as pacify the people, send troops to defend.

Secondly, in the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, those who do not stick to the smallest details of the eyes of the great man, even if the captive family members on the government as a hostage is not good, but Sun Zhou since the total angle of the period of brewing friendship can be compared to the Jin Jian, is a rare exception. Seeing that the war is approaching, not to mention that Lu Bu originally valued Sun Ce and had the intention of bringing him along with the army and leading his father's old troops to rub shoulders, even if not, Yan Qing would have persuaded Lu Bu to bring him along.

Zhou Yu stayed in Lujiang town, according to the intention to build water conservancy, reclamation of barren land, open the school building, troops in the people, light of these matters can call him busy, even if there is extra energy to consider the mutiny, but also have to persuade Sun Ce, and then look for ample excuses, lest do the world in the eyes of the treacherous and ungrateful disciple.

If you do not even have the guts to do so, it is not only a waste, but also a fool's errand, to tie up a brilliant talent on a high pedestal purely for the sake of safety.

Xu Shu no longer objected, and the matter became final. After marking the paper with satisfaction, Yan Qing said, "Qing heard that Ji Ning has a grandson, named Discussion, who, due to his father's untimely death, accompanied him to his post and entered school at his post."

Xu Shu suddenly heard him mention this matter which is irrelevant no matter how you look at it, and although he was puzzled in his heart, he still thought back seriously for a moment, "This is indeed the case."

Guo Jia, who had been staying out of the way, then his eyelids fluttered.

Yan Qing said with a serious face: "Ji Ning in the term of performance, meritorious, abruptly mobilized, or another dissatisfaction, so it would be unattractive. Qing intends to make amends, not if personally repair a letter to Cai Zhonglang, for its good words, or also promote a pair of master and disciple?" Then sighed: "I don't know if this can call Ji Ning to calm his anger, a little satisfied."

Xu Shu froze for a while, dead and alive did not remember Yan Qing and Cai Yong actually met one side, how the relationship is so good?

It was only after a long time that he said, "This is a very good method."

To be able to worship like Cai Yong such a respected master, is the world how many scholars dream of things, only suffering from no one to introduce, even try to get their eyes also have no way.

Even if Lu Kang had more grievances, with this generous compensation, he would have to lay down his arms.

Guo Jia raised his head in silence and looked towards Yan Qing, saying profoundly, "Oh? I don't know if Chongguang is interested in recommending a bright teacher to enlighten his son?"

At this point in the development, if he still did not see that Yan Qing's 'good intentions' for this kind of trouble, must be heartless and crazy to rush to the ten-year-old boy, rather than really for compensation for Lu Kang to do, it would be white with Yan Qing acquaintance and fellowship.

Yan Qing was not surprised that Guo Jia, who has a sharp eye, would see through his digging routine, and was sarcastically commented without any trace of concern, he also smiled without any concern: "Qing sees that Tooth's son is gifted and talented, and he is extremely fond of him, and he really doesn't want to give up his hand to him. If Fengxiao does not mind, at that time may wish to be taught by the Qing line?"

I can't believe it's brazenly gross.

Seemingly shocked at the thickness of his cheek, Guo Jia was speechless for a moment, looking at him fixedly for a while until Lu Bu's sharp eye blade also quietly scratched over, before moving away blandly.

But to Yan Qing's surprise, he quickly replied, "Since Shiguang has such an intention, Jia is more than willing to do so; in this case, my son will be entrusted to Shiguang."

Yan Qing: "......"

He simply regretted that he wanted to eat back what he had said just now - as the saying goes, once a teacher, always a father, he, a person whose appearance can still be described as a brocade, but whose inner self is actually full of speculative straw men, where can he get what to teach Guo Jia's only son?

As for talking about his handful of ...... that is to teach Guo Yi to brag or get laid?

The good thing is that Guo Yi is still very small, even if Guo Jia promised to wait until the time of the real enlightenment, most likely to forget all about it.

If he couldn't, he could put off the job on the grounds that he was tied up with business.

Yan Qing egg pain for a while, quickly calmed down, opened his mouth to inquire again: "Now abundant grain and grass, spring plowing smoothly, according to Qing's opinion, since next month, the matter of the military cantonment should be slowed down, tell the soldiers to quickly abandon the farm back to the camp, and more training to prepare for the war. Save them used to take the hoe to see more crops, even the most fundamental resistance to war to kill the enemy have forgotten all."

The military cantonment is different from the civilian cantonment, less a large number of in the idle period into the mouth of the unproductive, called them into the farming, certainly can greatly ease the pressure of military food, but long time out of the combat system, but also inevitably brought the great disadvantage of the decline in combat effectiveness, the history of Cao Wei legion will have to swallow the bitter fruit in the late stage of this.

Although the accumulation of food, in the continuous war, plague frequent, disaster rampant at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, will always be the key to the throat of the victory, but for the current state of Lu Bu potential, as long as the Yu Yang two states in the autumn harvest no one rushed to nuisance, that even if the war to play a year and a half, it is not possible to call the soldiers to starve.

We have enough food, we just need good soldiers.

Lu Bu nodded gently, "May."

At this time the summoned generals have arrived one after another, Yan Qing will seize the time, will be over the thing with the last few days has been unable to catch people Lu Bu quickly over again, the latter although all nodded in agreement, but also occasionally published a few sentences of their own views, actually is not a letter of the mouth, or do not understand the question, but quite insightful.

If this is proclaimed, I'm afraid the idiom won't be Wu Xia A Meng, but Han Xia Abu.

Yan Qing was both surprised and delighted at first, but later on he saw more than enough and couldn't help but speed up, while Lu Bu was able to keep up.

By the time Zhao Yun, who had arrived the latest, stepped through the threshold, they had already finished handling this batch of important matters that required Lu Bu to personally make a ruling with extreme efficiency.

The generals gathered, in order to take their seats, the next moment, but including the Lord Lu Bu, including the Lord, are habitually cast their eyes to Yan Qing, are all listening to the posture.

Guo Jia, who was present for the first time on this kind of occasion, could not help but raise his eyebrows at this sight, and also cooperated to collect the idle posture of sitting without a sitting phase, and sat down in a formal manner, with a pair of cunning and dynamic phoenix eyes with slightly curved corners at the end, looking at Yan Qing with interest.

How could Shigemitsu have such high prestige in the army?

Yan Qing is also used to this, calmly rose from his seat, swept the people in the seat a glance, opened the door to the mountain and smiled: "This summer is the time to start the army, you can be ready?"

The military generals looked at each other for a while at the words, and soon the highest-ranking one, Gao Shun, was the representative.

Gao Shun has always been concise and concise, and at this point the question was extremely crisp, asking bluntly, "Where to hit?"

Yan Qing saw that they had accepted the fact that they had only captured the Yellow Turbans for a short period of time and were going to lead the troops again, so he had to praise Lu Bu for ruling the army in a good way and being strict and obedient to his orders.

Rather, it was the differences between the strategists that were greater, which was why Yan Qing chose to discuss with Xu Shu Guo Jia and the two of them first, and then after unifying the strategic guidelines, he would then look for the military generals to make the final clarification and distribution of tasks.

As for Jia Yan, who received a salary from the Bei Zhu, but was anxiously worried about the assassin's heart, and was far away in Xu County, Henan Province, he could not come here to participate in the deliberation, so he would have to be notified of the final result.

Yan Qing read over the content of the flying pigeon transmission and slowly analyzed it, "The thieves are suffering from a wild heart and different eyes, so they cannot be left unleveled, but in order to eradicate them, it is useless to rush in, and they can only plan for it slowly. May as well start from the Yangzhou border around the active thieves began to clear."

Yuan Shu, after taking over Yangzhou, sent Sun Ce on a campaign that took several years to roughly wipe out, not to mention Sun Quan's confrontation with the Shan Yue ethnic group after he took over the throne, which was unfinished until Sun Hao, the last emperor of Wu, ascended the throne.

With the power of the whole country of Wu, and easily can not help, need to send a heavy military response, and at this moment Lu Bu only occupies the land of two states, if underestimated it, it will not take long to be dragged down alive.

Even if you have enough food and supplies and a strong army, you have to think about the saying that a strong dragon can't suppress a snake, and think carefully about what you're doing.

Lu Bu looked at Yan Qing with his eyes, and seeing that he needed to make a statement, he gave a nonchalant hmmm, lifted his curtains, and his eyes fell on Sun Ce and Xu Huang: "Are Gong Ming and Bo Fu willing to take up this vanguard?"

The two generals led the way with clanging orders.

Yan Qing, however, said, "Qing has the audacity to implore the Lord to agree that you go with Qing."

One is in order to better execute the blindfold, call outsiders think Tao Cao feud and Lu Bu has nothing to do with, the second is so, in order to ensure that the side followed by Sun Ce this extremely capable of holding Zhou Yu's important chips.

Once Lu Bu heard that Yan Qing was also accompanying him instead of preparing to run around blindly alone, a heart that had been hanging in the air for a while was finally released, and he readily agreed: "Let's go with what Shiguang said."

Yan Qing nodded and walked to the map, pointing to Pengze Lake at the junction of Xuzhou and Yangzhou, saying, "We can fight the bandits here, and after half a month, Zi Long will lead the troops to meet here again, and the matter of guarding Shouchun, which must not be lost, will be handed over to Fuyi."

Without hesitation, Gao Shun clasped his fists and promised.

Zhao Yun froze and tried, "Could it be that our army is intent on Xuzhou?"

Yan Qing nodded with a smile, "Precisely."

Zhao Yun stared eyebrows, politely persuaded: "Xuzhou Bo did not merit, and there is no imperial decree, unwarranted claim, will it be ......"

Yan Qing shook his head and said, "The one who is going to invade Xuzhou in a big way then is not us, but Cao Mengde of Yanzhou, whose father was killed."

He is not greedy for credit, this credit immediately returned to Guo Jia, but also for the future if necessary, also good to call people know, strategizing, indirectly took the life of Cao Song in the end who is: "thanks to Feng Xiao offer advice to remind, Tao Qian rule is not strict, Cao Song, but the family wealth of ten thousand, such as a child holding a foot of gold line in the downtown area, to protect a moment, in any case can not be protected for a lifetime. "

The generals will cast their eyes on the person Yan Qing referred to in his mouth, Guo Jia did not know Yan Qing's ulterior motives, between the brows of the lazy color has an indescribable flavor of the wind, show fan said: "This is Jia's part of the matter, heavy light praised."

When the matter is finished, the crowd dispersed, Yan Qing also want to go back to the house, prepared a few good wine, and then look for Guo Jia from his mouth to ask that has not been said to the plan, was Lu Bu gave a hand to clutch the hand.

Lu Bu practiced martial arts people, hand strength is very great, contact with the most are the big old man pugilistic military man, this moment to grab Yan Qing's wrist is also very no light and heavy, Yan Qing even if the pain is extremely low, but also feel as if being clamped in a vise like half a point can not move, and hurriedly stood still: "Lord is there what is the matter?"

Yan Qingming clearly did not continue to walk away, Lu Bu somehow still did not let go of his hand, and only said in a good voice: "Bu still has confusion, need Mr. --"

Before he finished speaking, there was a messenger soldier knocking outside to ask for an audience, saying that a scholar surnamed Xu Shao asked for an audience, and that he had once been a meritorious counselor of RuNan County, and that he hoped to take refuge here and hoped to be sheltered.

Xu Shao Xu Zi will?

Yan Qing is really not unfamiliar with this name, is not that Cao Cao "rule of the world of capable ministers, the chaos of the world of lords" as the comment of the famous character reviewer, but also made a far-reaching activities called the month of the Dan evaluation out of the very reputable that celebrity?

History does mention that he took refuge in Yangzhou, but wasn't he uneasy about Tao Qian's inconsistency and fled from Xuzhou in a hurry to join Liu Careless, the then assassin of Yangzhou?

Yan Qing was puzzled by this.

Vaguely have a feeling of wandering away from the world, a full of passion for Lu Bu, single-mindedly for him to plan the future of the Yan Qing do not know, in the eyes of the literati and celebrities, the first with a strange strategy to set up a great success in removing the Dong thieves, but also indifferent to fame and fortune to persuade the tiger to leave the capital, not only that Cao Mengde can not be forgotten, but also full of plums and plums, highly respected Cai Zhonglang forgetful friend, the great Xingxin school academies, making good paper for printing, the importance of the Education for all, clean up and reduce internal affairs, lighten taxes and levies ......

This series of Yan Qing know is just picking up the wisdom of the former, never proud of the action, early called him unconsciously among the ranks of a few famous scholars, not only called the world of the humble scholars extremely respected, some called the deviation of the high tribes of the scholars also have eyes on him, can let Xu Shao to come to rely on the name of the half is not uncommon.

Yan Qing thoughtfully glanced at the grim-faced Lu Bu, suddenly feeling that this was purely a great opportunity to deliver to the doorstep and give his lord a chance to raise his stature and clean up his reputation.
