Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

"Sir sees human nature too clearly..." Zhao Yun nodded.

Lan Tian raised his glass and said with a smile: "Zilong is a hero in the world, we old friends are forbidden to flatter, let's talk about other things."

Seeing this, Gao Shun turned the topic to football, and then unknowingly talked about children. Zhao Yun's two sons are younger than Lan Ji. Seeing a few children playing football is very happy, and he plans to learn it carefully and go home to teach his children.

"General Gao is so close to your husband, why don't you see him send his son to play with him?" Zhao Yun asked curiously.

Gao Shun replied flatly: "It's okay to play with Yuan'er and Ji'er, but his status is very different from the son's. I'm afraid that he will hurt the son without knowing how serious it is, so I put him at home and let his mother take care of him."

Lan Tian smiled and suggested: "Boping is very reserved, Zilong must not learn from him, A Dou has no playmates in Chengdu, and your two sons are good companions."

Thinking of what happened during the day, Zhao Yun quickly shook his head: "Mr.'s two sons are close to the prince. I am afraid that other people will not be able to give the prince that kind of friendship. I think it is better to let nature take its course. Just like what General Gao said, the identities are different..."

"Those two kids are a bit wild, they didn't make things difficult for Zilong today, right?" Lan Tian asked curiously.

"Uh...no..." Zhao Yun hesitated to speak.

Seeing that Zhao Yun and Gao Shun were in different situations, Lan Tian looked at Gao Shun and asked, "Bo Ping is still yours. If there is anything excessive, I will teach them a lesson, otherwise when I grow up, I will be cynical and scold me for not being a godfather." By the way..."

Gao Shun shook his head and said, "Actually, it's not too impolite. Ji'er begs General Zhao to give him the Qingzhi Sword after he doesn't need it..."

Lan Tian frowned: "This kid is too courageous. He dared to ask for Zilong's sword at such a young age. I will educate him later."

"The so-called Tongyan Wuji, sir, don't get angry, besides, Mr. Ji is smart and didn't force him. General Guan praised him that he will be a strong general in the future, so why not give him my green sword?" Zhao Yun said. Untie the sword.

"This is a child's joke, Zilong must not take it seriously." Lan Tian hurriedly stopped.

Seeing this, Zhao Yun thought for a while, "It's really inappropriate to give it to him now, so after Mr. Ji's coronation ceremony, Yun will congratulate him with a green sword..."

Lan Tian smiled awkwardly, there were still more than ten years before Lan Ji's crowning ceremony, and everyone had already forgotten about it by then, "Then I will thank Zilong for the dog first."

"The sword is given to the hero, and Mr. Ji is taught by Mr. He will surely succeed in youth." Zhao Yun sighed.

Because only Lan Tian, ​​Jiang Wan, and Zhao Yun drank, and none of them were bad drinkers, the banquet ended relatively early.

Lan Tian originally wanted to let Zhao Yun rest at the mansion, but Zhao Yun insisted on living in the post house, so he asked Gao Shun to send him out of the mansion.

In this era, there were no electronic products, and there were no entertainment games in the dark at night, so the family members were used to going to bed early. When Lan Tian returned to the back house, Lu Lingqi still left a light for him in the main room.

Pushing open the door and entering the room, I found Lu Lingqi practicing Wuqinxi. Lan Tian smiled and complimented: "Xiao Jun is getting better and better at practicing, but isn't your family-inherited martial arts better than this?"

When Lu Lingqi saw Lan Tian came back, she immediately stopped her movements, "My husband often says that we should combine work and rest. I know that the banquet will end early today, so I will play the five-animal show and wait for my husband to go back to the house."

"Xiaojun will also calculate? In fact, you don't have to wait for me every night. If you are sleepy, you can go to bed earlier. I can find a home." Lan Tian replied with a smile.

"Zhao Zilong is also a self-disciplined person. He won't be like the three generals who get drunk every time. In addition, Gan Xingba is not in Quanling. Isn't it easy to figure it out? Besides, I'm not sleepy at all, my husband, first Sit at the table for a while, and my concubine will fetch you a basin of hot water to wash your feet." Lu Lingqi said.

Lan Tian shook his head and sat down, "Xiaojun's thoughts are becoming more and more delicate. It's just about washing feet, let Yue'er and the others do it, why do you have to do it yourself?"

"The footwashing water is different for my concubine, how do Yue'er and the others know this?" Lu Lingqi didn't let the maid do it because she had innovated herself.

Lan Tian's scalp felt numb when he heard Lu Lingqi's words, last time he swallowed the porridge with great courage, now this footwashing water seems to have a new trick?

"Xiao Jun went to see Mr. Hua again recently?" Lan Tian asked tentatively.

"How do you know?" Lu Lingqi asked back from behind the house.

Afterwards, Lu Lingqi picked up the wooden basin and walked slowly. Lan Tian smelled the smell of herbs, and thought that this traditional Chinese medicine foot therapy was a bit advanced.

Chapter 356 Taiping Dog, People in Troubled Times

Lan Tian looked at the wooden basin and joked: "Xiaojun put a lot of ingredients in it, right?"

Lu Lingqi put the wooden basin at the foot of Lantian, smoothed the hair next to her ears, and replied with blushing cheeks: "Mr. Yuanhua said that there are many acupuncture points on the soles of the feet. Soaking them with herbs may relieve fatigue. After returning from the army, my husband has used them all day long." Tired and busy, these are all the medicinal materials prepared by Mr. Yuanhua, do you want to try it?"

Lan Tian took off his boots with a smile, and supported Lu Lingqi's 'innovation' with practical actions. He put his feet into the tub and found that the water temperature was just right.

"You don't need to be so cautious, Mr. Hua must have a reason for using the medicine, but the water temperature is actually warmer and more comfortable." Lan Tian explained.

"I'll save myself, I'll go get some hot water when it gets cold." Lu Lingqi gently sat beside Lan Tian.

Lan Tian shook his head and smiled wryly, "Let the maidservants do such trivial things as heating the water, and Xiaojun will talk with me."

"I see my husband's expression, is it because my sister is going to leave, she is a bit reluctant?" Lu Lingqi asked curiously.

"Yes, but not all. Chengdu is in the hinterland of Yizhou, and it is relatively safe there, but it is too difficult to see each other in Guanshan." Lan Tian nodded.

Lu Lingqi comforted: "If my husband is really reluctant, why not go with my sister? There should be no problem with the general guarding Jingzhou."

Lan Tian quickly shook his head: "According to Kong Minglong's opinion, in the future, my brother-in-law can go out of Qinchuan all the way into the map, and enter Wanluo all the way through Jingzhou. Chengdu may not be the final home. It is more useful for me to stay in Jingzhou than to enter Shu. Only when Jiangdong does not hold back, can General Guan burst out with the strongest power."

Lu Lingqi snorted coldly: "Obviously everyone's enemy is Cao thief, Jiangdong people don't want to ask for territory from Cao thief, but instead attack Jingzhou from behind, Sun Quan is really shameless, he is not as upright as his sister, if it is not for the husband to deal with it properly , the consequences are unimaginable, is there no one to persuade you?"

Lan Tian smiled wryly: "Human nature is selfish. Even if someone sees it, they are not willing to persuade them. Even if someone persuades them, they may not be listened to. The comparison between the two shows that General Zilong and brother-in-law are very valuable."

"Husband, there is one thing that I really don't understand. Why did those generals force the palace after they won the victory? They are not afraid of General Liu's jealousy?" Lu Lingqi asked curiously.

Lan Tian suddenly became serious, "I'll tell you a story, Xiaojun, do you still remember your uncle's enemy? Why does he love to slaughter cities after the war?"

Lu Lingqi's face was gloomy, "Husband, are you talking about Cao thief? Maybe he is cruel by nature, and there are many famous generals who slaughtered cities in the past..."

Lan Tian shook his head: "Even a butcher in the countryside doesn't necessarily like to kill. Serving as a soldier not only fills his stomach with food, but also wants to leave something for his family after he survives. What kind of salary can he get when he joins the army in troubled times? Those of Cao Cao's men Why are the generals fighting desperately? It’s nothing more than waiting for a few days after breaking the city without sealing their swords..."

Although Lu Bu has a bad reputation, he has never massacred a city, and Lu Lingqi doesn't know the reason and process of massacring a city, so she hurriedly asked: "Can you tell me in detail, what does it mean to break a city for a few days without sealing the knife? "

Lan Tian stroked Lu Lingqi's temples and asked, "The content is cruel, are you sure you want to listen?"

Lu Lingqi nodded, "It's good to gain some insight."

Lan Tian frowned: "Let me give you an example. If Xiao Gao is the youngest leader of Cao's army and manages ten soldiers, and after Cao Cao captures Yecheng, he orders that the swords not be sealed for seven days. At this time, Xiao Gao still has five soldiers left in his hand Individuals survived, but not everyone had the opportunity to go into town and loot their belongings."

"Why?" Lu Lingqi asked puzzled.

Lan Tian explained: "Because we want to prevent the people in the city from escaping in the chaos, we must leave people to guard the gates. Unsealed swords are meaningless to the soldiers guarding the gates, and it is also very important who is left to guard the city... "

"Thieves Cao often massacre the city, isn't this coming in turn?" Lu Lingqi asked again.

Lan Tian shook his head: "Every general has relatives, so they will naturally give more opportunities to those who are close, and those who are far away must find their own way. Take Xiao Gao as an example just now. The relationship between them is estranged, and if you want to enter the city to plunder, you need to pay bribes..."

"You want to give property before looting?" Lu Lingqi was incredulous.

Lan Tian nodded and said: "This is spending money to buy opportunities. If you don't spend money or spend less money, the quota will be taken by others, and the few surviving brothers who follow you will also lose the opportunity to make a fortune. Who will pay for it in the future?" Will you obey your command? If Xiaojun, you are Xiaogao, would you be willing to spend money?"

Lu Lingqi nodded lightly, "Of course I am willing, and I can get it back anyway, but what does this have to do with Tucheng?"

Lan Tian showed a childish expression: "Xiao Gao was originally a kind person. After he entered the city, he led five soldiers to search for the people, threatened the people with weapons and robbed them of their property, and when he counted at night, he found that the looted property was not much. It is not even as good as filial piety to officials and Quhou;

So the next day, Xiao Gao became bolder. He beat and even used the knife like other fireheads. When counting at night, the harvest was much richer than yesterday, but other teams seemed to grab more, and some soldiers even brought back women;

On the third day, although Xiao Gao was still adhering to his conscience, the soldiers under him were impatient. After they captured a family, they killed two people first, and the survivors would offer their belongings in horror. This method of looting was more efficient than the previous two days. , so the killing cannot be stopped later;

Because there are too many soldiers entering the city, the same family may be looted several times. In fact, after two or three encounters, there is nothing left, but the soldiers who robbed don’t know. What about the rich people who survived by chance?If you let go of it rashly, you may miss the opportunity to make a fortune, so in the end, the whole family will die;

In fact, in the last two days, the soldiers who entered the city were exhausted from killing, and the property that could be collected was getting less and less. Become a two-legged lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and the whole city will no longer have a trace of life. This is the real sense of massacre;

I would rather be a dog of peace than a person in troubled times..."

After the story of Lantian was finished, the strong Lu Lingqi's eyes were moist, "It is the unsealed knife that inspired the evil in human nature. Although my father was defeated in the army, he was not as treacherous as Cao thief..."

Lan Tian sighed: "Xiao Gao, who was originally kind, was coerced by the environment. If he is lucky enough to return to his hometown alive and feed his wife and children with the property he robbed at the beginning, he will definitely not say that he got it in exchange for massacre..."

Lu Lingqi rubbed her eyes: "The looted property and the country are covered with blood, and my husband helped General Liu plant the country with light. The two sides will compare and judge."

Lan Tian shook his head: "Xiaojun, you have made me a saint. Don't forget what kind of lord there is, and what kind of ministers are there. Why are Yun Chang, Yi De, Zi Long, and Kong Ming willing to accompany them? He His benevolence and righteousness are definitely not touted by others."

Lu Lingqi lightly hammered on Lan Tian's shoulder: "My husband is the concubine's saint, I finally know why you don't want to assist my father..."

Lan Tian's eyes widened, what's going on in your brain?Can this be connected?

357 Chapter Yuan Tan Recommends Boyan

Lu Lingqi calmed down and asked the maid to add hot water to the basin. After Lan Tian introduced Tucheng in detail, she finally understood how the heroes aroused the evil of human nature to win victory after victory. Although she was helpless, it was the reality.

Not every army is as lucky as the soldiers who fell into the formation. Gao Shun's soldiers don't have to worry about food and clothing and pay their salaries normally. Although they can't rely on military pay to get rich, they are better than ordinary people.

The powerful combat power of the entrapment army does not come from plundering, but from what they want to protect. This internal motivation is far more stable than external temptation.

The two brothers, Lan Yuan and Lan Ji, are getting bigger and bigger. They play with A Dou every day, and Gan Qian dotes on Lu Lingqi to discipline him. Now A Dou is about to part with them and live in Chengdu. Lan Tian told Lu Lingqi to be stricter in the future , he didn't want the two children to be too aggressive.

Born in a family like Lantian, if the second generation is too domineering, it will be a disaster.

Lan Tian wiped off the water stains on his feet, and chattered endlessly when he sat down by the couch, "I'm relieved that Yuan'er is calm, and Ji'er's being too flamboyant may not be beneficial. If he gets older, he will have to hire a strict teacher."

Lu Lingqi handed the footwashing water to the maid, and then came to the couch and sat down by Lan Tian, ​​"You know Ji'er's character best, and this child is also very sensible and obedient, but he is born with great courage, even the third general doesn't know what he is doing." If you are afraid, what strict teacher can control him? He asked General Zhao for a sword during the day, which was unexpected..."

In Lu Lingqi's memory, Zhang Fei wasn't even afraid of Lu Bu. A black face was an evil star among many generals, but it was a pity that he couldn't get angry with Lan Ji.

Lan Tian pinched his chin in thought, Zhuge Liang is naturally the best in terms of intelligence, but he may not be able to teach his own children, and the Ma Su he brought out is not too good; suitable.

Suddenly Lan Tian remembered that when he took his son to Jiangxia, Lan Ji was very obedient in front of Guan Yu.

"General Guan is a suitable candidate. I'll send him to Jiangling when Ji'er is older." Lan Tian suggested.

Lu Lingqi was taken aback for a moment: "Guan... General Guan? This is a good idea, but as the governor of Jingzhou, how can he have time to teach Ji'er?"

"I think Yun Chang and Ji'er hit it off quite well. I'll ask him about this matter when I have time. If I can learn a little of General Guan's heroic spirit, he will benefit him forever." Lan Tian nodded.

Lu Lingqi nodded, "General Guan is indeed unparalleled in the world, much better than those false heroes who slaughtered the city..."

Lan Tianxin said why you haven't come out yet, and immediately comforted him: "Whether you slaughter the city or not, wars have always been cruel. Do you still remember Genghis Khan in Legend of the Condor Heroes?"

"Of course I remember, I asked someone to copy it on the bamboo slips. Unfortunately, I lost it in Xiapi City, and I don't know who took it away. Is it still safe now..." Lu Lingqi sighed.

"Gains and losses are all fate. You don't need to force yourself too much. The reason why Genghis Khan's army is powerful is because everywhere they go, they slaughter many cities, and the Mongolian Tartars let out the evil in their hearts to their heart's content;

The slaughtered people survived and became slaves, and they were also the slaves who died in the next siege. " Lan Tian shook his head and said.

"I don't allow you to teach these cruel strategies to the children, and I don't allow you to use them in battle. Going against the law of heaven will bring retribution. I don't want my children and grandchildren to suffer the consequences..." Lu Lingqi looked serious.

Lan Tian grinned and said, "I teach the common people to farm and do good deeds. As for the use of swords to stop the war, it's a last resort. Don't you believe me?"

Lu Lingqi shook her head quickly: "It's the husband who talked about massacring the city today, making this concubine think wildly, but how do you know so much?"

"It's all from books..." Lan Tian has read "Ten Diaries of Yangzhou" and "Yuan History", so he has a detailed understanding of Tucheng.

Lu Lingqi seemed to have realized something, "It seems that I should read more..."

Lan Tian laughed and said, "I agree."

"Will you sleep with me in your arms tonight? I feel a little restless..."

"I agree……"

During the time when the Books and Newspapers Office was rushing to produce newspapers, Lan Tian took the children to the training camp of the Martial Arts Hall, and let Zhao Yun thoroughly understand the rules of football through competitions.

Zhao Yun's comprehension was extremely high, and he understood it clearly within an hour. In the end, he went off to compete with Gao Yuan and others in person, and quickly mastered some skills.

Three days later, Zhao Yun bid farewell to Lantian and set off for Jiangling. Almost all his family members in Shu were in Nanjun. If he wanted to rush back to prepare ship supplies, the new issue of Changjiang News was distributed both inside and outside Jingzhou.

According to Lantian's request, Gan Ning took the initiative to send someone to send the Changjiang newspaper to Lukou to Lu Su, and expressed the hope that the two families would eliminate the estrangement and jointly fight against the powerful enemy in the north.

Lu Su has also been worried about the Changjiang Newspaper. He knows that Sun Quan attaches great importance to reputation. Once the Changjiang Newspaper derogates Jiangdong too much, even if the alliance between Sun and Liu is no longer the same.

When Lu Su saw that the Yangtze River reported avoiding the heavy and light, he not only described Cheng Pu's invading soldiers as Shanyue, but also cleverly said Jiang Xia's gains and losses as an excuse. In the end, it is really turning your hands into clouds and turning your hands into rain..."

After reading the newspaper, Lu Su hurriedly sent people to Jianye. Sun Quan attacked Wancheng when he returned to the army according to Lv Meng's plan. Thunderously broke through the city and captured Zhu Guang, the prefect. At the same time, he also plundered tens of thousands of people and returned to Jiangdong.

Zhang Liao of Hefei was delayed in receiving information due to heavy rain, so he mobilized troops and horses and walked halfway to Wancheng before it was destroyed. Lu Meng was also promoted to the prefect of Lujiang for his military exploits.

Cheng Pu defeated Changsha and lost his army, Lu Meng cleverly conspired to seize Jiangxia County, and returned to the army to win a big victory in Wancheng. Sun Quan thought that this time the troops were sent out overall, but when he returned to Jianye, he found out that Lu Fan was defeated and Wei Jing was also poisoned by Shi Hui. Killed in Panyu, Jiangdong's forces have been completely driven out of Jiaozhou.

Whether it was Lu Su and Lu Meng who followed Sun Quan on the Yangtze River, Cheng Pu and Han Dang who were in charge of attacking Changsha, or Lu Fan and Wei Jing in Jiaozhou, they all belonged to the Huaisi faction.

The Huaisi faction was too strong in military power. The Jiangdong gentry headed by Gu Yong used the excuse of the defeat of Changsha County and Jiaozhou to openly attack Sun Quan, demanding that he not only be rewarded but also punished.

Sun Quan suddenly felt a bit on the wax. Lu Meng, who had made great contributions, had already rewarded Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Ling Tong, and Wei Jing. Si everyone's heart.

Just when Sun Quan was in trouble, the latest information came from outside the palace. Because Cheng Pu was wiped out in Changsha, the deterrence of Yuzhang County was weakened. After hearing the news, Shanyue in Poyang gathered a crowd to attack the county. Sun Quan immediately ordered Fenwu General He Qi to crusade .

He Qi has many experience in conquering Shanyue, Sun Quan found Gu Yong's face was strange after ordering, so he asked a lot: "Is there any good candidate for Yuan Tan?"

"Haichang ordered Lu Boyan to be of great use. He has also experienced many times in Pingshan Yue. Now that Cheng Gong, Huang Gongfu and other veterans have withered, my lord should cultivate more new talents." Gu Yong said with his hands clasped.

Sun Quan frowned first, then quickly replied calmly: "In this case, let Boyan (Lu Xun) be Gongmiao (He Qi)'s deputy general, and go to Poyang to suppress the rebellion together."

Chapter 358 Zhang Zhao presents plans for Lantian

Lu Xun was born in a prominent family. Since the early Eastern Han Dynasty, the Lu family had been well-known in Jiangdong. He lost his father when he was young, so he was fostered in the home of his ancestor Lu Kang. He is also the patriarch of the Lu family.

In the first year of Xingping, Liu Bei replaced the deceased Tao Qian as Xuzhou pastor. After Yuan Shu failed in Nanyang, he occupied Huainan. Considering that Liu Bei's political stance was inclined to Yuan Shao, he planned to send troops to attack Xuzhou and asked Lu Kang for military supplies.

After Lu Kang rejected Yuan Shu's request, Yuan Shu ordered Sun Ce to lead his troops to attack Lujiang.
