There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

Although the power of pottery merchants is growing stronger and stronger, such big banquets are generally rarely held.

Mr. Tao actively responded to the call of diligence and thrift.

But no matter how diligent and thrifty you are at home, sometimes team building is necessary. Eating and drinking is just a situation. The important thing is to improve the morale of these civil servants and generals, so that everyone can find motivation and centripetal force.

Banquets in the Han Dynasty were relatively easier to deal with than those in later generations. These days, people did not sit around a large table for meals on formal occasions. Instead, they sat on couches, each on a small low table, and the dishes were divided into meals. .

Although it has been more than six years since time travel, the potter is still not used to it. This way of eating feels similar to eating KFC or McDonald’s in the fast food restaurant in the previous life, except that in the later life, he ate fried chicken and burgers, and in this life, he ate roe deer. Meat.

Xu Chu and Xu's Hanniang, as the ministers of the first meritorious service, were placed at the top of the ranks of generals.

Xu Chu, as a small local tyrant in Qiao County, although he is a cronies of pottery merchants, has always had a low status in Xuzhou's gentry side, and to put it bluntly, he is not considered a gentry.

However, today is not what it used to be. After the battle against Zulang, coupled with the intentional support of pottery merchants, the Xu family finally began to step into the circle of the uppermost aristocrats. Although they are still not nobles, at least It can be considered a wealthy family.

In addition to dishes, wine is of course indispensable, not to mention graceful local maikos and musicians.

It was a very happy feast.

Xu Chu has been in the army these days, restrained by military orders, and supervised by Xu Hanniang, who has never drank. Now that he has the opportunity, he finally let himself go.

Xu Chu drank so much that he couldn't even straighten his tongue. When people asked him about his military expedition this time, he was also drunk and could only repeat two words... "Drink" drink."

Xu Hanniang looked at Xu Chu's ugly face and wished she could beat him up at the banquet.

Due to the face of the potter and others, she gritted her teeth and endured it.

Just wait until the bastard sobers up after returning home, and then take care of him.

But right now there are some things that Xu Hanniang still has to explain to everyone headed by the pottery merchant.

Xu Hanniang said to the potter: "Teacher, although Zulang has been wiped out, after our investigation and inquiry this time, we know that there are still many thieves in the mountains and mountains in the east of our Jiangdong, just about to move. Gather up the mountain people, intending to become big. Among them, Pan Lin, Fei Zhan, Mao Gan, Jin Qi, etc. are all handsome in the mountains and rivers. They are all powerful, and they will surely become disasters in the future. Although they are not as famous as Zu Lang now Loud, but we still need to ask the Taifu to make a plan early, so as not to cause harm to Jiangdong in the future."

When Xu Hanniang went on an expedition, she was able to find out the situation of the mountains and mountains in Wu so clearly, which really made the potters feel very admirable.

Regardless of whether the mother-in-law is fierce or not, Xu Hanniang can be regarded as Xu Chu's good helper just based on this exquisite thought.

The potter drank another glass of wine, and asked everyone: "Madam Xu said something extreme. Mountains and Vietnam seem to be insignificant, but they are actually of great importance. If the rear of Jiangdong is unstable, it will have a great impact on our army's future war on the northern front. , in view of this point, you may wish to give me a solution to see how to deal with it."

Chen Deng stood up and said to Tao Shang: "Dealing with the Shanyue sect thieves is different from the Baiyue sect in the south. Blindly suppressing rebellion and suppressing bandits is definitely not a long-term solution. It is also necessary to have a capable person with both wisdom and strategy to preside over the overall situation, whether to recruit, or appease, or suppress, it all depends on the current situation, and Gai cannot sit and talk."

Tao Shang looked at Chen Deng with a smile and said: "Such a talent, I'm afraid only Brother Yuanlong or Feng Xiao can be a talent."

Chen Dengchang sighed, and said: "I also really want to solve the rebellion of Shanyue in Jiangdong territory for the Taifu, but now the north is restless, and Yuan Cao and I will compete for supremacy soon... I am raising myself, but I think that right now The Taifu cannot do without me and Guo Fengxiao."

As soon as Chen Deng said this, among the people present, quite a few Xuzhou local scribes felt strangely unconvinced, but due to the status of the Chen family in Xuzhou, they did not dare to refute.

What do you mean, as long as you and Guo Jia are capable people, we are all trash?

The potter thought about it, and what Chen Deng said was indeed the same.

A large-scale plan to plot Shanyue, such a complicated situation requires both the use of troops and the use of brains, as well as being proficient in diplomacy and politics. overview.

Must be a one-in-a-million all-rounder.

In addition to Guo Jia and Chen Deng, Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi are also available under his command, but the potter still hopes that they will practice again and stay by his side to help him.

Guo Jia also drank a lot today. Unlike Xu Chu, although he drank a lot, his mind was clear.

"Yuan Long speaks like this, presumably some unrivaled genius recommended it to the Tai Tuo?" Guo Jia asked drunkenly.

Chen Deng chuckled, and said: "Those who know me, Feng Xiao also... Yes, I really know that there is a capable person, but I just heard his ability from hearsay, whether he is really capable, Chen is also not sure." Dare to grasp it."

The potter narrowed his eyes and looked at Chen Deng with complicated eyes.

For the talents recommended by Chen Deng, the potter was somewhat cautious in his heart.

Because people like Chen Deng are double-edged.

He was true to himself.

But the Chen family is also the head of the Xuzhou gentry. While Chen Deng worked hard for himself, he did not forget to fight for the interests of the Xuzhou gentry.

If the talent he recommends is a native of Xuzhou, how many pottery merchants really have to weigh it.

It simply increased the energy of the Xuzhou gentry group, which was not conducive to balance.

However, Chen Deng's next words reassured the potter a lot.

"The person recommended by me does not live in Xuzhou."

The pottery merchant looked at him suspiciously, and said, "Isn't he a native of Xuzhou? Where is that expert who can make Yuanlong treat him so differently?"

Chen Deng said to the Tao merchant: "The person I recommend is from Xuzhou, but he left Xuzhou many years ago. He is from Dongcheng County, Linhuai County. His name is Lu Su, and his name is Zijing."

"It's him." The potter's heart began to beat.

Although in this era, the pottery merchant has never met Lu Su, but in his previous life, the pottery merchant had also carefully studied the history of Soochow's fortune, and he had a certain self-identity for Lu Su.

Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Lu Meng, and Lu Xun are well-deserved four hero generals of Sun Wu. They are all admired by the world. They are the confidantes of Sun Quan, the great emperor of Wu. .

What did Lu Su rely on?

In fact, after careful consideration, you will find that Lu Su is actually the chief architect of Jiangdong's strategy in history!

The design and layout he made for the development of Jiangdong is enough to be described as terrifying.

The statement that Lu Su is a good old man is purely a random arrangement of later generations-nonsense.

After the fierce battle of Chibi, Lu Suli asked Sun Quan to lend half of the southern county to Liu Bei. The main reason was that Cao Cao's deployment of soldiers and horses on the southern front at that time was extremely focused on Soochow.

Historical records: "Army to Qiao, build a light boat, control the water, enter the Huai River from the vortex, exit the fertile water, and join the fertilizer"... Every military move of the Cao army represents that Cao Cao's main attention was on Sun Quan at that time.

Boss Cao's determination to skin Bi Yan's cramp is evident.

However, after Lu Su tried his best to lend half of Nanjun to Liu Bei, the situation in the south was different. Liu Bei replaced Soochow in Jingzhou to directly face Cao Jun's edge, which greatly attracted Cao Jun's military deployment in Huainan and shared the burden. Soochow's flank pressure even changed the offensive and defensive positions of Soochow and Cao Jun in the military strategy against Hefei and Xuzhou in the following years.

People in the world always say that Liu Bei borrowed Jingzhou, but in fact it should be said that Lu Su borrowed Jingzhou.

This loan is borrowed and given automatically, why don't you do it!

Moreover, after Zhou Yu's death, as soon as Lu Su took office, he repaired Yiyang City, his old nest, less than a hundred miles away from Changsha City, and stationed heavy troops to closely monitor Liu Bei's territory in Jingnan.

From a military point of view, this city was almost built to Liu Bei's face.

Tete is a bully!

A few years later, when Liu Bei faced huge military pressure from Hanzhong in Sichuan and Shu, Lu Su, who was the military chief at the time, did not get used to Liu Bei. , All the east of the three counties of Changsha, Jiangxia, and Guiyang were placed under the rule of Soochow.
