The Strongest Lu Bu: Sweeping the World

The development of Montenegro is of great importance, and it will even have a huge impact on the life and death of the Yellow Turbans in Montenegro. With Lu Bu's secret support, the development of the Yellow Turbans in Montenegro will undoubtedly be smoother.

"General Yang, Jizhou is rich, so is it possible that General Zhang still lacks money, food and supplies in Jizhou?" Lu Bu asked with a smile, "Could it be that General Zhang is unwilling to pay more supplies?"

"Wen Hou misunderstood. Although General Zhang is in Jizhou, Yuan Shao's son has strict control over Jizhou. Even if Heishan Yellow Turban can break through one or two cities in Jizhou, it will not help. The two are now in peace. General Zhang also I don't want to start a war." Yang Feng explained.

"Since Jizhou is rich, General Zhang can definitely get more benefits from it. Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan have a lot of grievances. Although Yuan Shao won the victory, the war between the two sides will definitely not stop easily. When the time comes, General Zhang As long as you make a move, you will definitely get a lot of benefits." Lu Bu said.

Yang Feng took a deep look at Lu Bu, nodded and said yes, in the eyes of outsiders, Lu Bu is a martial artist, but through the conversation with Lu Bu, Yang Feng felt differently, Lu Bu and Yuan Shao are allies, but in Lu Bu's words, he encouraged Montenegro The Yellow Turbans attacked the cities of Jizhou.

This shows that the alliance between Lu Bu and Yuan Shao is not as stable as in the eyes of outsiders. If the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans attack Jizhou, it may be exactly what Lu Bu wants to see.

There is no absolutely stable relationship between the princes. Lu Bu was able to form an alliance with the Heishan Yellow Turban so simply. Didn't he see the benefits that the Heishan Yellow Turban can bring? Yan has a certain amount of support, which is also worthwhile.

Besides, the sale of weapons to Zhang Yan still requires money and food in exchange. It can be said that Lu Bu did not suffer any losses.

After leaving Lu Bu's room, Yang Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, being with Lu Bu was under too much pressure.

"General Yang, there are many envoys from princes in Pengcheng at present, it's better to be careful when doing things." Jia Xu said.

"Thank you, military advisor, for reminding me." After Yang Feng thanked him, he took his leave and left.

Compared with the princes, although the strength of the Black Mountain Yellow Turban is strong, there are many gaps in the background. The aristocratic family controls a large amount of supplies. How could they not control some merchants secretly? hands.

In the eyes of literati, doing business is a humble industry, but the development of a family is also inseparable from the support of merchants. Without the supplies brought by merchants, it is not easy for the family to achieve considerable development.

For a big family, just in terms of consumption, it is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

And Yang Feng also felt the lack of financial resources in Black Mountain. When Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan confronted each other before, although the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans were sent out, the number of dispatches was not very large. Fame and unattainable prestige for ordinary princes, if Yuan Shao is pushed into a hurry, it will not be of any benefit to the Black Mountain Yellow Turban.

But when Yuan Shao's development surpassed the resistance of the Heishan Yellow Turbans, the Heishan Yellow Turbans would definitely look for other ways out, and Yang Feng quite agreed with Lu Bu's suggestion that the Heishan Yellow Turbans get more benefits from the wealthy Jizhou.

Jizhou is rich, if it can occupy more cities in Jizhou, or if it can get more benefits from other cities, it will have long-term significance for the development of Heishan Yellow Turban.

The Yellow Turbans in Montenegro have a large number of people, but the consumption is not small. Under the oppression of aristocratic families, the Yellow Turbans in Montenegro are not worried about the fact that no one will come to seek refuge.

In fact, in the process of development, the aristocratic family did not pay more attention to ordinary people. In their view, ordinary people are just tools to obtain benefits. As long as they can bring more benefits to their families, that's enough.

There is a difference between Lu Bu and other princes, that is, Lu Bu's background and background as a military commander make him a bit out of tune with princes from aristocratic families, and he doesn't even have the hesitation of other princes when doing things.

Some princes know that there are corresponding benefits after joining forces with the Montenegro Yellow Turbans, but when facing the Montenegro Yellow Turbans, they often behave righteously.

This kind of behavior will not be approved by Yang Feng. Although Yang Feng is a general among the Yellow Turbans of Montenegro, Yang Feng asked himself that his ability to lead troops in battle is no less than that of the generals under the command of the princes.

The strength of the Yellow Turban soldiers varies, but there are many talents among the Yellow Turbans. This cannot be denied. For example, during the Yellow Turban Uprising, Bo Cai and Zhang Mancheng brought so much trouble to the generals of the Han army .

Although the Yellow Turbans have been suppressed nowadays, there are active figures of the Yellow Turbans in many counties and counties.

It's just that the power of these Yellow Turbans cannot be well unified. Otherwise, the Yellow Turbans will definitely have a place in such a troubled world.

Yellow Turbans are rebels, and everyone shouts and beats them, but there are quite a few people who become Yellow Turbans. Could it be that these people want to become rebels, but in fact it is not the case. If there are other choices, these people must It's about wanting to be one of the common people.

The oppression of aristocratic families has left ordinary people with no more ways to live. If they want to get a stable life, they must find a way.

Turning grass into bandits is not a long-term thing after all.

However, the current Montenegro Yellow Turban has reached such a point that even Yang Feng has no more opportunities to choose. Besides, the current development of the Montenegro Yellow Turban is generally good.

After the integration of Zhang Yan, the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans exploded with vitality, which is absolutely shocking. Even if a large-scale war breaks out at this time, the Black Mountain Yellow Turbans will not have the slightest fear.

After forming an alliance with Lu Bu, there are many benefits to the overall development of the Montenegro Yellow Turbans. In this case, the generals of Montenegro will naturally not refuse, and only a few generals of the Montenegro Yellow Turbans will know about this matter.

Chapter 437 Paper

Pengcheng is still as lively as ever. When the activities of the Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce started, the most obvious change was the newly established Chamber of Commerce, bustling with people.

No matter where these merchants come from, if they want to buy something, they must go to the chamber of commerce to register. After the materials, money and food are handed over, they can get the goods.

Mi Zhu is quite satisfied with such a busy schedule. Besides, he doesn't need to do anything about it himself, he just needs to organize it.

After seeing the scene of the Pengcheng Chamber of Commerce, any envoy from the princes could not be at peace. The status of merchants is not high, but the role that merchants can play cannot be ignored. When more merchants gather together, what can they do? The power that erupted was absolutely formidable. Lu Bu knew how to better use the power of the merchants to allow Xuzhou to gain more benefits through the merchants.

If this is not the case, why was Xuzhou able to ease over in a short period of time after the end of previous wars?

The progress of the war will have a great influence on the rule of the princes. At this time, it depends on whether the monarch has corresponding countermeasures. If the countermeasures are timely and appropriate, more problems can be avoided.

Under the leadership of Lu Bu, the Xuzhou Army achieved a great victory, and such a victory was a great encouragement to the soldiers in the army. From the shouts of the soldiers outside the city during training, you can feel the strength of their morale very well. high.

The most important thing for an army is morale. If even the most basic morale cannot be guaranteed, even if it is superior in ordinary training, it is not enough to make greater achievements after the real war breaks out. possible things.

It is reasonable for Lu Bu, who was born as a general, to attach great importance to the officers and men in the army. However, Liu Biao and the envoys of Yuan Shu who are close to Lu Bu are not so relaxed.

More than one emissary of the princes proposed to go to the army to watch the training of Xuzhou army officers and soldiers, but they did not get consent.

Although the training of lieutenant officers and soldiers cannot control the situation of lieutenant soldiers more, but they will have a better understanding of the Xuzhou army, and this is also a better way for Lu Bu to improve his prestige among the princes. There are many doubts in the hearts of the envoys of the princes.

Outside the chamber of commerce, there are more than [-] lieutenant generals guarding them. These soldiers are wearing strong and sharp eyes and staring at the surroundings. There are many merchants who go to the chamber of commerce. It is hard to guarantee that there will be no one with ulterior motives. The most critical thing is to ensure the stability of the city.

After the Xuzhou army was taken over by Lu Bu, the mental outlook displayed was very different from the past. Under the leadership of Lu Bu, the soldiers in the army were like tigers descending from the mountain.

There is no doubt that such an army has made a great contribution to the stability of Xuzhou.

The victory of the war made the lieutenant generals feel their own value, and some lieutenant generals even longed for the war to happen. Through the war, they could get a higher status.

The rules of the chamber of commerce were known to the merchants in advance. The activities of the chamber of commerce during Lu Bu's wedding had already been informed to the surrounding states and counties through newspapers and periodicals. Such news naturally spread very quickly.

The Xuzhou newspapers also attracted the attention of many people.

The price of paper is expensive, which caused Lu Bu to be criticized by many literati. He has the technology to make paper more quickly, so he should share it with everyone, but Lu Bu wants to use this method to obtain more benefits.

In the past, the big man had the technology to make paper, but the production technology was not mature enough, and the cost was relatively high, so it was the high-level people who could afford to use paper.

Even some famous people dare not use the paper lightly after getting it. This is a good thing. After using it, it is not possible to spend money to get it again.

This kind of thing was solved in the hands of Lu Bu. What the princes dare to affirm is that it was definitely not invented by Lu Bu himself, but Lu Bu obtained more benefits through paper, but it will cause a lot of resentment.

When some literati scolded Lu Bu, they still used paper, and in their hands, the price was more than a thousand yuan a piece. Although it was expensive, this amount of money was nothing to famous families.

Literati have their common problem, that is, they regard themselves as noble. When they see something that is not pleasing to the eye, they will stand up and criticize it, as if their value will be degraded if they don't do so.

In fact, the accusation of the literati was not of much use to Lu Bu, because Lu Bu didn't take the literati too seriously at all.

If there are scholars who come to seek refuge, Lu Bu will naturally welcome them very much, but if they come to scold him, they will not be polite.

It is because the literati were more polite in Pengcheng, after all, this is Lu Bu's territory.

Merchants want to buy what they want, they need to rely on money to buy it, or exchange it with materials. Among them, if they use material exchange, they will have priority rights and even enjoy additional discounts. This situation makes many merchants see Here comes the opportunity.

When a businessman is doing business, he pays attention to speed. When more businessmen have the same item, the value of this item will definitely be affected.

The same is true for going to Xuzhou to buy fairy jade and paper. Get these things faster and you can control a certain amount of initiative.

After returning to the place, with the speed of being one step ahead, they can process the goods faster, thereby obtaining a lot of benefits.

From the rules of the Xuzhou Chamber of Commerce, it can be seen that Xuzhou has many conveniences for merchants who use material exchange. In this way, more merchants will inevitably be affected.

People with a discerning eye can see that Lu Bu wants to collect materials in this way. Although money is good, sometimes it takes a certain amount of time to convert money into materials.

Obtaining supplies directly is of great benefit to Xuzhou.

As for money, will the Xuzhou State Shepherd's Mansion lack money?

Just from Lu Bu's reward standards for soldiers in the army, we can see more problems. Xuzhou's pastoral mansion is not short of money, but the princes will not dislike their own strength.

After Jushou saw the scene of the Xuzhou Chamber of Commerce, he had many feelings in his heart. In the eyes of outsiders, Lu Bu, who was just a martial artist, gave the princes too many surprises.

Chapter 438

And such surprises are likely to continue. This kind of situation has a lot of disadvantages for the princes.

Not long after occupying the land of Xuzhou, Lu Bu attacked Yanzhou, which is a good illustration. Although Yuan Shu's proposal played a leading role at that time, if Lu Bu had no idea about Yanzhou, how could he make the move to attack Yanzhou.

The achievements of the Xuzhou Army on the battlefield are absolutely dazzling. The victories in successive battles have demonstrated to the world the elite soldiers of the Xuzhou Army, and let more princes understand how much it takes to win against the Xuzhou Army. the price.

The progress of the war is extremely important for any prince. The Xuzhou army has some advantages in leading the army. Lu Bu will definitely continue to maintain such an advantage.

If more cities fall into the hands of princes like Lu Bu, what impact will it have on the situation in the world.

The princes fought endlessly for their own interests. This kind of war will not stop in a short time. The court is still in the hands of the rebels, but how many princes are now thinking of welcoming the emperor and revitalizing the Han Dynasty.

When the princes saw the benefits brought about by the increase in strength, the influence of the so-called Han Dynasty in their minds would be minimized, even if it was placed on Yuan Shao, the leader of the princes and alliance.

When Dong Zhuo was in control of the court, he had powerful troops in his hands. This kind of strength was beyond the reach of other princes, but after Dong Zhuo's death, the court was still under the control of rebellious officials and thieves, which is a bit intriguing.

These things are beyond the control of Jushou at present. As an envoy to Xuzhou, it is natural to further stabilize the relationship with Lv Bu, and it is best to obtain more benefits from Lv Bu.

At present, the princes no longer have the initial contempt for Lv Bu. Lv Bu led the lieutenant soldiers to use the victories in battles to let the princes understand how difficult it is to take advantage of Lv Bu.

Even Yuan Shao, who is the leader of the princes and alliance, recognized Lu Bu's status at this time.

It is not good for any prince to anger princes like Lu Bu, especially when Lu Bu controls more sharp weapons, the method of making the Hundred Refined Weapons is controlled by Lu Bu, which is what other princes do not want to see .

However, something has happened, they can only admit it, and try their best to maintain the relationship with Lu Bu, in order to get more benefits from Lu Bu's hands.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Ju Shou shook his head slightly, and wanted to leave.

"What does the envoy of Jizhou mean? Could it be that he is dissatisfied with Marquis Wen?" Yuan Shu's envoy Yang Hong asked with a smile when he saw this scene.

Jushou was a resourceful person under Yuan Shao's command and was trusted by Yuan Shao, while Yang Hong was Yuan Shu's think tank and was responsible for making suggestions for Yuan Shu. Relatively speaking, both of them had important positions under their respective monarchs.

Yuan Shu sent Yang Hong to Pengcheng as an envoy, which just showed the importance he attached to Lu Bu. In all fairness, Yuan Shu must have had a lot of anger towards Lu Bu. It was precisely because of Lu Bu that Yuan Shu lost the land of Yanzhou and Yuzhou. In some counties, however, Yuan Shu's strength is far behind that of Lu Bu's. Such dissatisfaction can only be deeply hidden.

Standing on the opposite side of Lv Bu and becoming an enemy of life and death with Lv Bu, one can imagine the pressure on Yuan Shu. The previous battles have shown that Lv Bu is far from being as simple as the princes see. After the city under his rule is completely stabilized, it will be a lingering nightmare for other princes.

Yang Hong is naturally familiar with the miracles created by the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army on the battlefield. It is impossible for ordinary people to make friends with Lu Bu, but there are only interests among the princes. Under such circumstances, it is relatively simple to obtain Lu Bu's friendship.

Yuan Shu's strength, after the previous confrontation, suffered a serious setback, but with Yuan Shu's prestige and influence, it is relatively quick to restore his own strength.

It wasn't that Yuan Shu's advisers didn't want to compete with Lu Bu on the battlefield, but that Yuan Shu had made too many enemies. Not only was he an enemy with Lu Bu, but Liu Biao was also attacking Yuan Shu's rule. The state of the alliance.

Let the situation go on like this, even if Yuan Shu is strong, it is not easy to get out of such a war smoothly, the best way is to calm down, even if it means losing the city.

"It turned out to be the envoy from Yangzhou." Ju Shou said, "I shook my head and sighed because I thought of the relationship between Marquis Wen and General Yuan Shu."

Yang Hong snorted coldly: "General Yuan and Marquis Wen are allies, so you don't need to worry about it."

"Haha, the ally you mentioned may not be true." Ju Shou laughed.

Yang Hong's face was still as calm as before. As a well-known counselor under Yuan Shu's command, how could he be affected by other people's few words? Not the slightest help.

The most obvious change brought about by the discord between the monarchs is the tit-for-tat between the courtiers.

"I don't know why the envoy from Jizhou came here? I just saw the envoy's complexion is not very good." Yang Hong said.

Ju Shou said: "I'm afraid it has nothing to do with your Excellency for the reason why I came here."

In terms of relationship, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao are all allies of Lv Bu, and the two sides naturally do not give up much in terms of status, and at this time, they cannot give up. There are many competitions among the princes. If you can stand out in such competition, you will gain more benefits, otherwise, it will be more difficult to succeed.

"To be honest, I came here to buy a hundred-refined weapon." Yang Hong said proudly.

Ju Shou said lightly: "It's not a coincidence that this is the case, and so is this official."

"It's better to go together." Yang Hong said.

Ju Shou said with a smile: "The invitation from the Yangzhou envoy, how can I refuse the reason, please."

If the uninformed officials saw the posture of the two, they would think that the relationship between the two was very good.

As a prince's envoy, one must have enough tolerance, and if this cannot be guaranteed, it is impossible to get more approval from other people.

Chapter 439 Fighting

Lv Bu's strength attracted more envoys from the princes. These envoys have their own goals. As for whether their goals can be realized in Xuzhou, it depends on their respective means.

Feng Lang, who was behind Jushou, looked at Yang Hong with many unkind eyes, especially after learning that Yang Hong was Yuan Shu's envoy, his emotions were beyond words.

Yang Hong cast his eyes on Feng Lang and asked, "I wonder who this is?"

"I am the deputy envoy of Jizhou." Feng Lang said proudly.

Before Jushou came, he was the envoy of Jizhou, representing the face of Jizhou.
