At the end of the Han Dynasty, there were no Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty

But Huang Zhong didn't hesitate: "My lord, my Xu'er's health is completely recovered now, and he has also practiced some martial arts, and his skills are quite extraordinary."

"Han Sheng, I intend to set up a new battalion to be responsible for inquiring about intelligence, including military scouts, internal response, etc., and Huang Xu is your son of Huang Zhong. Needless to say, he is loyal, cautious and smart. Leave it to him to rule!"

Huang Zhong was overjoyed when he heard the words, he quickly prostrated himself on the ground, suppressed his excitement and said: "My lord, Huang Zhong and his son are so fond of me, how dare my father and son repay the lord with their lives!? Loyalty for the dog! Thank you, my lord!"

Liu Yu stepped forward to help Huang Zhong up, patted his arm, and said: "Han Sheng doesn't have to be like this, how can I not know what you want? Moreover, I am also very optimistic about Huang Xuzhi's talent. Tell him to ask Brother Ben Wang for advice."

Huang Zhong nodded movedly when he heard the words, and then clasped his fists to Zhao Lie and said, "I will ask Mr. Zhao to teach you a lot, Han Sheng thank you here!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lie said with a smile: "Han Sheng, you and I still need to talk about this? And we are all working hard for the ambition of the lord, so there is no need to thank you!" After finishing speaking, the two looked at each other and laughed again!

After everyone was seated again, Liu Yu sorted out his thoughts and said: "In my Jizhou, besides Hejian, other counties and counties also have a lot of banditry. Come to Jizhou to plunder."

Liu Yu paused and said: "This king will personally write a letter to tell my brother, let me wait to send troops to fight against the bandits in Jizhou. If they rob the people, then this king will rob them!"

Speaking of this, Liu Yu showed a ruthless face, and said coldly: "If you are a vicious bandit, then no one will be left, and all will be executed, because this kind of person has become accustomed to looting houses, burning, killing and looting, and he can't change it! "

"If you are a bandit for the first time, or if you haven't robbed ordinary people, then you should make an exception and either disband and come to Hejian to farm, or drive out of Jizhou! I believe they will make the right decision!"

All the soldiers were elated when they heard the words. After all, raising soldiers for a thousand days and using them for a short period of time, why did they practice martial arts and join the army? Isn't it just to fight on the battlefield and make military achievements to seal their wives and sons?Now, it's time for meritorious service!

Even Lu Bu is eager to try at this moment, wanting to lead the cavalry to kill the bandits.

Seeing the enthusiasm of the soldiers, Liu Yu smiled and said: "Fengxian, after two years of growth, I believe that you can lead an army now, but you still need a lieutenant general, let Yan Gang be your lieutenant general." .”

Yan Gang was a very witty and careful person who was discovered by Liu Yu when he was in Bingzhou.

Yan Gang has also organized a group of scout teams in Hejian in the past two years, which have achieved initial results, but Liu Yu handed them over to Huang Xu, so it is not a bad idea to let Yan Gang train with Lu Bu.

Hearing this, Lu Bu was extremely excited. He strode towards the center of the hall, clasped his fists to Liu Yu with joy on his face, and said, "My lord! In the end, the whole Jizhou will definitely be free from bandits and robbers!"

"Hahaha! Why doesn't this Marquis believe in Fengxian's ability? But you have to be careful. You must know that there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky! Think more and use your brain more! You can't just rely on enthusiasm."

Liu Yu paused and continued: "You are not the only one who leads an army to fight. The honor and disgrace of an army rests on you! Do you understand Fengxian?" Liu Yu asked earnestly.

Lu Bu had a stern expression on his face, and he clasped his fists in response, "Don't worry, my lord, Bu is awake! I will definitely discuss with Yan Gang more when things happen!"

Liu Yu nodded and looked at Zhao Lie again.

"Brother, although we are not short of food, we still have a lot of food, but we don't have enough money, so we have to start with money!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lie looked at his lord cupping his hands and asked for advice: "Lie would like to hear the details!"

Liu Yu coughed lightly and sorted out his thoughts.

"We should recruit more chambers of commerce, and form a chamber of commerce from the noble families in Hejian. Our palace is responsible for researching some profitable gadgets, and the chamber of commerce is responsible for selling them."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lie asked with a puzzled expression: "My lord, do you know what this money-making gadget refers to?"

Liu Yu smiled slightly when he heard the words and said: "The secret must not be leaked, the brother will know when the time comes."

Ignoring Zhao Lie who was shaking his head and smiling wryly, Liu Yu spoke again.

"We also need to let the people raise more livestock. The people are responsible for raising them, and our palace is responsible for collecting them. The king will arrange for people to process them and make them into jerky. This can also improve the soldiers' food, and even sell them. The taste of jerky is really good. "

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words, jerky?None of them have heard of it.

In the face of everyone's inquiries, Liu Yu didn't answer, but just showed an inscrutable smile, which made the next few people anxious, but he couldn't torture his lord, right?

Everyone could only shake their heads and smile wryly.

Suddenly, Liu Yu's eyes lit up, and he asked Zhao Lie, "Senior brother, what is the grain output of our Hejian country and Zhongshan country?"

Listening to Liu Yu's question about grain production, Zhao Lie replied truthfully: "Hejian country produces 100 million dan of corn every year, and Zhongshan country produces about 40 tan."

Liu Yu frowned when he heard this, and said, "Why are there so few in Zhongshan? Could it be a noble family?"

Zhao Lie replied with a wry smile: "My lord's guess is right. It's the gentry. Zhongshan National Energy's annual output of 40 dan is the result of my garrison soldiers organizing a large number of refugees to open up wasteland and cultivate land. Otherwise..."

Zhao Lie didn't go any further, but the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Liu Yu snorted when he heard this.

"Hmph! Sooner or later, this king will clean up the entire Zhongshan country's gentry, but for now, the focus must be on Bohai County! This king hopes to take the prefect and completely control Bohai within two years!"

Hearing this, Zhao Lie smiled without any pressure and said, "Don't worry, my lord. In today's Bohai County, most of the officials and generals are from Hejian. In less than two years, Bohai will be in the hands of my lord."

Liu Yu nodded slightly upon hearing this.

"In this case, the entire eastern region of Jizhou will be in the hands of this king. After Bohai settles down, we will start with Bohai, thoroughly stabilize Bohai County, and promulgate the Hejian system. If the nobles in Bohai County disagree..."

Zhao Lie and the others hurriedly looked at their lord and asked, "Why don't you agree? My lord, tell me!"

Liu Yu smiled slightly and said, "My king heard that there are often pirates in the Bohai Sea area, and we haven't wiped out all the pirates on land. These pirates are inhuman..."

When Liu Yu said this, everyone showed a look of surprise, and then smiled viciously.

Chapter 057

Liu Yu and others discussed for a long time before ending the meeting, and everyone rushed out to busy with what Liu Yu explained...

Hejian produces 100 million tons of grain every year. For a county, this figure is simply astronomical, but Hejian has indeed achieved it.

Because the entire land in Hejian is under the control of Liu Yu, and it is distributed to the people, with ten taxes and two, and the people have surplus food in their families, and they can’t eat it all, so they will sell it to the Wangfu, and the Wangfu will follow the order. receive.

Assuming that one load of food can feed three soldiers for a month, Hejian is enough to feed an army of 20. The only thing lacking is money!

But Liu Yu knows that what will be the most expensive in the future is food!It is food, all money and jewelry are fake, and filling the stomach is real.

And if you have food in your hands, more refugees and people will join you. People are also the most precious resource!The second is the land.

At present, those who have a lot of food in Hejian are exchanging food for war horses, so if Liu Yu wants to make money, he must start with food!

What can food do?Millet cake?no no no!Brewing is right!Although Liu Yu didn't know how to make wine in his previous life, hadn't he eaten pork or seen a pig running?

I have the theory of brewing, and I am looking for more master brewers. Liu Yu believes that he will definitely brew the liquor from his previous life!Compared with the current wine, it is simply the nectar and jade dew in the sky!

At the meeting just now, Liu Yu ordered Zhao Lie to find more winemakers.

Build some breweries, of course!The brewing process must be kept strictly confidential, and all the family members of the brewers must move into the family houses around the winery. Of course, the remuneration is quite good.

In this way, more than a month passed, during which the entire palace and even the entire Hejian Kingdom began to get busy.

During this period, Liu Yu sent people to various states and counties to issue some notices, similar to recruitment orders, but not so grand.

It is just to let the people of all the prefectures know that the King of Hejian, the future general of Zhenbei, is in urgent need of talents. As long as he has a skill, he can try it.

This has also become the gossip of the people in various states. When the people talk about the King of Hejian, they are full of admiration!

Can't help being both civil and military, and also brave, at the age of seven or eight, he dared to lead soldiers and horses to fight with the Qiang and Hu people!

Literary talent is even more romantic. It is said that a few days ago, there was a farewell poem written by Wei Cao Cao in the north of Luoyang, which really made the world feel ashamed.

The three great Confucian scholars in Luoyang were full of praise for this poem, and even Cai Yong wrote down several copies of it, and was asked to take a copy by the emperor, hanging it in the imperial study, and reading it carefully when he had time.

There is also gossip that the prince scolded the Yuan family's Taiwei Yuan Wei in the court meeting two years ago, and the common people even talked about it.

The common people are not interested in the gentry, let alone his Yuan family?In Hejian, all the people are very against the Yuan family!

This was also unexpected by Liu Yu, but Liu Yu knew about it, and he didn't intend to stop it. After all, as long as it would help improve his reputation and suppress the Yuan family, Liu Yu would like to see it.

On this day, Liu Yu was in the winery, studying the final steps of wine making with various brewers.

At this point, Liu Yu is very happy, and all the brewers are even more excited!

This is the result of almost a month of hard work between them and the prince!When this wine is brewed, it will definitely shock the whole man!

"call……"

Liu Yu took a deep breath, looking at the brewers in front of him, the excitement in his eyes couldn't be hidden no matter what.

"Just do what the king said just now, we will definitely succeed this time! Everyone, go and try!"

All the masters also agreed in unison, and then, one by one, the brewers, all excited, hurriedly followed Liu Yu's instructions.

At this time, a Xuan Tiewei walked up to Liu Yu.

"Report! My lord, the Prime Minister has brought a young scribe and is waiting for my lord outside!"

When Liu Yu heard this, his heart moved, he turned and walked outside the winery.

After walking out of the winery gate, he saw two people waiting for him in front of him, one of them was Zhao Lie.

The other person, Liu Yu, did not know him. He was in his twenties, dressed in a Confucian robe, with an ordinary appearance, but tall, a head taller than Zhao Lie.

Liu Yu was a little puzzled, so he stepped forward, and before Liu Yu could ask, he saw Zhao Lie coming forward with a happy face, and said with a smile: "My lord, Lie is here to announce the good news to my lord this time." !"

Liu Yu was even more puzzled when he heard the words. In the past month, Hejian Kingdom has been very busy, and there are no small things.

All of Liu Yu's arrangements are proceeding in an orderly manner, and it can be said that there are surprises every day.

"It's a big happy event for my senior brother to come to me in person. Tell me quickly and let me listen."

Liu Yu's anticipation was beyond words.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lie replied with a slight smile: "My lord, the surprise Lie mentioned is the one next to Lie!"

After speaking, Zhao Lie pointed to the people around him.

Liu Yu was taken aback when he heard the words, then turned his head and looked at the people around Zhao Lie.

Seeing Zhao Lie looking at him, the man bowed his hands calmly and introduced himself: "Ju from Jizhou grants you to Duke Ju! I have met the prince!"

Liu Yu was taken aback when he heard the words, this...is a big surprise, Ju Shou Gong and Ju, but he is a very famous person in Jizhou.

Liu Yu also knew this person from later generations, he is definitely a top-notch counselor!He first followed Han Fu, the governor of Jizhou, as Jizhou Biejia, and then followed Yuan Shao to advise him.

However, Yuan Shao was stern and cowardly, he was decisive and reckless, and he didn't follow Ju Shou's advice.

Now that Jushou, who is over [-] years old, has just been promoted as a maocai and has not yet become an official, he has come directly to Hejian to join him, which really makes Liu Yu overjoyed.

Although Liu Yu was pleasantly surprised, his face was still calm, and he looked at Jushou and said.

"This king has long heard that Ju Shou Gong is a man of great talent, seeing him today is indeed a well-deserved reputation."

Ju Shou smiled slightly, but did not show the slightest excitement, which was evident in his character.

"Shou is just a fledgling person, and dare not bear such a reputation as the prince."

Liu Yu laughed when he heard the words, and said: "You don't have to be humble, I don't know your skills?"

Liu Yu paused and said again: "Okay, let's stop standing here, follow me to the palace, we'll talk all night long! Hahaha..."

Liu Yu laughed heartily, with both hands on the left and right, each holding the hands of Jushou and Zhao Lie, walking towards the palace.

Jushou, who was behind Liu Yu, looked at Liu Yu who was holding his hand, with a touch of emotion on his face.

He just came out of the hut and wanted to show off his strengths. Just at this time, he heard that the king of Hejian was recruiting talents, so he came to Hejian with the mentality of giving it a try.

After going through layers of selection, he was personally received by the Prime Minister Zhao Lie. The two chatted for a long time, and Zhao Lie happily pulled him to the winery to look for the prince.

When Liu Yu heard his name just now, Liu Yu's excitement at that moment was just noticed by Ju Shou.

At this time, he was pulling him so kindly, and Jushou suddenly felt that his trip to Hejian might be the right decision.

After the three of them entered the palace, they took their seats, and Liu Yu couldn't wait to ask: "Your Majesty and I came to Hejian on this trip, what do you think of what you have seen and heard along the way?"

Hearing this, Jushou immediately clasped his fists and said, "I really felt a lot when I came to Hejian this time! There are fertile fields all over the land, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and laugh and laugh everywhere. What I admire even more is that the people are not only not afraid of soldiers, but can Talking and laughing together, the soldiers even helped the common people to farm, and the common people helped the soldiers to wipe their sweat and feed the water, it was really an eye-opener for the professor!"

Liu Yu couldn't help sighing after hearing the words: "My Hejian can have such a grand scene, it is inseparable from the hard work of the two generations of my ancestors, and it is inseparable from the hard work of my subordinates day and night! Only in exchange for the people's living and working in peace and contentment!"

Ju Shou's heart throbbed when he heard the words, but he still held back the throbbing, and asked Liu Yu, "I don't know what the prince's future ambition will be?"

Liu Yu couldn't help smiling slightly when he heard the words.

"Did you not hear what this king said in the Luoyang court? This king thought that the folks had already spread it!"

Ju Shou was taken aback when he heard the words, how could he not have heard of it?I just want to make sure in my heart, after all, rumors are rumors after all.

"Then the next step is for the prince to go north to Bingzhou? The prince should know that we big men have never taken the initiative to attack since Emperor Wudi. I don't know where the confidence of the prince comes from?"

Chapter 058

Liu Yu's face turned serious when he heard the words: "Gongyu, it's because the Han court is full of your thoughts that the people on our border will be invaded by foreigners! As a result, the corpses of the people are scattered all over the field, and the border is full of smoke! Why? Only they are allowed to invade, But we are not allowed to fight back? What is the reason for this?"

Liu Yu took a sip of tea and continued, "As for why this king is confident?"

After Liu Yu finished speaking, he looked at Jushou with a smile, and said slowly, "Didn't you, Mr. Ju, come?"

"Hahaha! Grant, meet the lord!"

Ju Shou first let out a long laugh, then stood up and fell to the ground.

Liu Yu endured the joy in his heart, stepped forward with a smile on his face, and helped Jushou up.
