Lu Bu strongly agrees with some of Jia Xu's points of view.

"Wenhe decides the affairs of the army. If there are generals in the army who dare not obey orders, they can deal with them directly." Lu Bu said.

Jia Xu clapped his hands and said yes, Jia Xu can feel the trust of Lu Bu, and he can get such attention under the command of the princes. In fact, Jia Xu still enjoys this feeling quite a bit. If a person is under the command of the princes and cannot receive corresponding attention, no matter how powerful the person is, it is impossible to achieve greater achievements under the command of the princes.

What kind of attitude Lu Bu has when dealing with talents is also well-known among the princes. If talents go to Xuzhou to seek refuge, as long as there are no more problems, they will be appointed. After showing enough ability, they can even go to Xuzhou. Go up to a more important position.

This kind of thing made many literati have more expectations for Lu Bu.

Although Lu Bu's reputation among literati is not good, when Lu Bu shows his corresponding strength, he will get more literati's support.

Among the literati, there are many family backgrounds that are not considered prominent. If they want to do something when the troubled times come, they must rely on the power of the monarch.

Lu Bu was able to occupy so many advantages when the princes were vying for hegemony, which was enough to attract more literati to come to seek refuge.

In fact, Lu Bu's attitude towards talents is very good. Even if these talents come from aristocratic families, Lu Bu has no more hesitation when appointing them, because Lu Bu knows that when the development speed under the rule is faster , It must be supported by more talents. If the support of talents cannot be achieved, no matter how fast the development speed is under the rule, it is not easy to achieve achievements.

The literati had many discussions about the affairs of Xuzhou, and Lu Bu was naturally aware of the situation. Lu Bu would not pay more attention to the comments of these literati. not suitable.

Chapter 861 No mercy at all

Besides, Lu Bu is a prince with a noble status. After these literati seek refuge, if they want to get enough attention, they must have the trust of the monarch. If not, no matter how powerful they are, it is useless.

Compared with other princes, Lu Bu was different in appointing talents.

The rapid development of Xuzhou and Yanzhou has attracted the attention of more talents. However, after Lu Bu endured the war, they will be more cautious when making choices. Not everyone is like Man Chong. Knowing that Lu Bu was about to go through a war, he went to seek refuge.

Of course, such a move by Man Chong is also extremely wise. When the monarch needs it most, going to seek refuge can often get the most attention for himself. The inspector's office currently in charge of Man Chong is also famous in Xuzhou and Yanzhou.

The establishment of the Inspector's Office is mainly aimed at officials' violation of laws and regulations. Such things are also reasonable. If the princes want to have more control over the situation under their rule, they will inevitably adopt some other means. The Inspector's Office Establishment is the embodiment of the authority of the monarch.

Of course, after the establishment of the Inspector's Office, many families suffered losses, but these families have a cautious attitude when facing the Inspector's Office. Such consequences are clear to these families.

While Lu Bu was developing his rule, he was extremely concerned about the violation of laws and disciplines by his officials. In such a situation, the best way was to follow Lu Bu's orders. Besides, even if they wanted to be detrimental to Lu Bu, It is not a simple matter to form more influence on Lu Bu just by relying on the strength in their hands.

If some things are not concealed enough, it may even attract Lu Bu's revenge. When the monarch is angry, what kind of impact it will have on the family under his rule is also very obvious.

When Lu Bu was governing the lands of Xuzhou and Yanzhou, he was not merciful at all. As long as any family violated the order when doing things, they would be punished. If it was serious, even the family they belonged to would suffer.

It is precisely because of the cruel means and the corresponding system that Lv Bu's prestige in Xuzhou and Yanzhou has been greatly improved, so that officials from aristocratic families dare not have more when facing Lv Bu. presumptuous.

But with the coming of this battle, some families will inevitably have other actions in secret, because if Lu Bu cannot win the war, it will definitely have a great impact on their family.

However, before the battle is clear, these families will not make choices easily. In the past, the families of Xuzhou and Yanzhou are quite clear about what kind of methods Lu Bu used when he went through wars. If they are dissatisfied, it is very likely that they will bring about the destruction of their family. Such a situation is not what people from aristocratic families want to see.

After the start of the war, these families tried their best to stay dormant and not to be leaders. Even in the face of Yuan Shu and Liu Biao's secret wooing, they remained calm. This confrontation will definitely have a negative impact on the stability of Xuzhou and Yanzhou. In this war, what kind of actions Lu Bu can lead the Xuzhou Army will have a great impact on the future development of the situation.

In fact, many families have confidence in Lu Bu. How urgent the situation in Xuzhou was at the beginning, Lu Bu was still able to lead the army to the final victory in difficult times. Such a victory was quite a shock to the families in Xuzhou.

During the war, the families who took the opportunity to cause chaos paid a corresponding price for their actions. Now that this kind of thing is coming again, they need to have a more cautious attitude when facing it. Let go of the conversation.

When Lu Bu dealt with aristocratic families, he was never merciful, especially the treacherous families, the suffering they experienced was conceivable.

If Lu Bu had won the war, and these families had other actions in secret, one can imagine what kind of situation their families would face when Lu Bu returned from victory.

As for the degree of Lu Bu's control over Xuzhou's news, there is no doubt about it. Lu Bu secretly controls a certain amount of power. These forces have made great achievements when Lu Bu was developing. At the beginning, Yuan Shu sent assassins to Xuzhou. , It didn't play a big role, and even the owner of the Black Clothes Pavilion died in Pengcheng, which is enough to show that Lu Bu's methods are powerful.

It is normal in itself for a monarch to secretly control other powers, and this will also help the monarch to have a better understanding of the situation under his rule.

Of course, such a situation is quite a deterrent to the Xuzhou and Yanzhou families, making these families dare not be more presumptuous when facing Lu Bu, and even when facing Lu Bu's orders, they can only do To obey, but dare not have more violations.

Lu Bu, who has a great reputation among the princes, obviously has no more scruples when doing something.

Just like other princes, they have a strict attitude when dealing with aristocratic families, for fear that some actions will make the aristocratic families feel dissatisfied and stay away.

In Lu Bu's body, he couldn't understand these things. If the noble family can't follow his orders, it will be the bad luck of the noble family. It is precisely by relying on this method that Lu Bu has gained a firm foothold in Xuzhou heel.

Now even Yanzhou is under the control of Lu Bu. When it comes to the number of cities under his rule, there is still a certain gap between other princes and Lu Bu. It's just that Yanzhou and Xuzhou fell into Lu Bu's hands not long ago. It is also unclear what kind of attitude the family in the state has. It is obviously difficult for Lu Bu to make rapid development under his rule.

At present, the most important thing before Lu Bu is the war. Only by winning this war can he stabilize his position and make his reputation even louder among the princes.

For families that have confidence in Lu Bu, if they want to get a share of Lu Bu's rise this time, it is best to use this method to improve the strength of their family.

It is relatively simple for aristocratic families to think about problems sometimes. If some actions are helpful to the development of the family, they will definitely choose to do it.

Chapter 862 Liu Bei and Kong Rong Dominate

If not, even if the monarch has a lot of influence under the rule, it is not easy to make these families submit.

Not all princes would adopt brutal methods like Lu Bu when governing the region. Disobedient families would be deliberately suppressed or even eradicated.

The strength of the aristocratic family is extremely powerful. When the power of more families is united, even the princes dare not underestimate it.

During the period when Lu Bu was governing Xuzhou and Yanzhou, he actually had a lot of appointments for the power of the aristocratic family. Talents from the aristocratic family cannot be rejected by the princes. If even these talents cannot be accepted, such princes, In fact, it was unsuccessful.

As a monarch, one must have a corresponding tolerance. Even if some families have other actions in secret, as a monarch, after a beating, how to appoint, or how to appoint.

Lu Bu was actually quite successful in the governance of Xuzhou and Yanzhou, especially in the land of Xuzhou. As Xuzhou developed faster and faster, it brought more and more families to seek refuge. After Lu Bu, there will be no easy changes. Even if the Xuzhou Army and the Yanzhou Army are going through a war, they will try their best to stand on Lu Bu's side and help Lu Bu tide over the difficulties.

Such a family is the most helpful to the development of the princes. Lu Bu naturally hopes to have more such families under his rule. In this case, many things do not even need to worry about Lu Bu.

When governing the region, Lu Bu's strategy is also very simple. He only needs to establish an effective supervision mechanism, let the officials under his rule perform their duties, and do the things at hand well. Princes, sometimes there is no need to make yourself so tired.

The officials under the rule have corresponding abilities. Isn't it normal to let their abilities be exercised?Besides, after letting the officials under the rule be responsible for more things, these officials will feel the importance of the monarch, and they will even have more gratitude to the monarch.

Of course, Lu Bu's ability to have such a boldness has also been recognized by many families.

Therefore, when Yuan Shu and Liu Biao attacked Lu Bu, it was quite difficult to influence Lu Bu secretly through other means.

Lu Bu has been operating in Xuzhou for many years, not to mention deep-rooted, the victory of the war has made Lu Bu's prestige among the various families in Xuzhou not low.

When facing a war, it is reasonable for them to have more confidence in Lu Bu.

The progress of the war will have a considerable impact on each family. The key is what choice they have when facing the war.

The current stability of Xuzhou is related to the strong combat effectiveness of the Xuzhou Army. If the Xuzhou Army cannot win the battle against the enemy, it will have a great impact on the situation in Xuzhou.

The Qingzhou Army was already approaching Langye County at this time, and their defeat in attacking Xuzhou was a big blow to Liu Bei and Kong Rong.

Liu Bei and Kong Rong knew how fierce the Xuzhou army was on the battlefield. Although Kong Rong usually scolded Lu Bu a lot, when he actually faced the Xuzhou army, Kong Rong would inevitably think that the past In the war of the [-]th century, the Xuzhou army had such a brave performance in the war.

This is also the reason why Kong Rong and Liu Bei took further actions after learning that Liu Biao and Yuan Shu had sent troops.

When fighting against princes like Lu Bu, one must be more cautious. If other problems arise during the battle, it will definitely have a great impact on the war.

Liu Bei and Kong Rong have tens of thousands of soldiers in one unit, and Zang Ba, who is currently stationed in Langye, has only 3000 troops under his command.

In terms of military strength, Liu Bei and Kong Rong have an absolute advantage. As long as Zang Ba can be defeated in the confrontation, the Qingzhou Army can drive straight in and pose a threat to Xuzhou.

Liu Bei has sufficient confidence in this war. It would be the most surprising thing if Qingzhou's army still failed to win under such circumstances.

Even if Lu Bu's troops were strong and powerful, at this time Lu Bu's main force was attracted by Liu Biao and Yuan Shu, and he did not pay more attention to Langye's safety.

Besides, Zang Ba is also a well-known fierce general in the Xuzhou army. With Zang Ba stationed in Langye, with the strength of the city, it is still very possible to stop the team from Qingzhou.

It is normal for Lu Bu to have a plan in this regard. After all, the enemy the Xuzhou army is facing this time is strong. Whether it is Liu Biao or Yuan Shu, they are all well-known existences among the princes. If they are not enough when fighting against the two With caution, other situations are likely to occur.

It was normal for Lu Bu to deploy more elite troops to fight Yuan Shu and Liu Biao.

At this moment, Liu Bei's chance has come.

Xuzhou is rich and famous among the lords. It is precisely with Xuzhou as the foundation that Lu Bu has become famous among the lords. If he can take the lead in breaking through Xuzhou, it will be of great help to Liu Bei's future growth.

After entering the boundary of Xuzhou, it is obvious that the number of people has increased.

Qingzhou is currently plagued by yellow turbans. These yellow turbans are extremely rampant. Even if Liu Bei sends troops to suppress them again and again, the effect is not very good. Compared with Lu Bu, there is a lot of gap between Liu Bei's troops. The bandits have more achievements, but it doesn't mean that Liu Bei can do it.

It is quite difficult for the princes to win the battle against Lu Bu. In terms of military strength, Liu Bei is far behind the general princes. This is also very different from the situation in Qingzhou It's related, there are many yellow turbans in Qingzhou, and these Qingzhou yellow turbans have caused great damage to the city.

It is not a simple matter to wipe out the Yellow Turbans in Qingzhou.

Lu Bu wiped out the Yellow Turbans wantonly in Xuzhou and Yanzhou, but it caused a lot of turmoil among the Yellow Turbans. Now, when the Yellow Turbans mention Xuzhou and Yanzhou, they will not have more yearning, because if they go to these two states , there will be life-threatening.

Lu Bu's attitude towards the thieves is very clear. Even if the strength of these thieves is strong, it is simply impossible for them to achieve success in the battle against Lu Bu.

Such a situation also made the Yellow Turban Bandits quite depressed.

Chapter 863 It's Shameless

The Yellow Turban bandits are entrenched in all states and counties of the Han Dynasty. It is very difficult for the princes to wipe out these bandits. Therefore, under normal circumstances, the princes will not have more concerns about such things as having a Yellow Turban under their rule. Yes, at most, when the yellow turbans are rampant, send army lieutenants to beat them.

Besides, even if there are a large number of Yellow Turbans, it is impossible to form more influence on the princes.

The number of Yellow Turbans is large, but they can't keep up in terms of combat effectiveness. The main reason is that the Yellow Turban Army does not have sophisticated weapons and armor, and the fighting method is single. If you want to face the lieutenant directly, it is almost impossible to succeed. .

The yellow turban entrenched, this kind of thing itself cannot be avoided. When the people under the rule have no hope of survival, they will fall into the grass and become bandits, which will have more influence on the rule of the princes.

As for why such a thing happened, the princes are very clear.

When the aristocratic family is developing the power of the family, they have no more scruples about the life and death of the people. As long as the strength of the family can be improved, even if these people become more thieves, it is irrelevant to them. .

It is precisely because of this attitude that the princes have always been more rational when dealing with thieves. Of course, this kind of thing is different when it comes to Lu Bu. When dealing with thieves, Lu Bu has always had zero tolerance.

As long as traces of bandits are found, troops will be dispatched to eradicate them. Such a style, but the people under the rule have a lot of respect for Lu Bu, and they will feel more at ease living under Lu Bu's rule.

Lu Bu's achievements among the princes can be seen by other princes, and the overall situation of Xuzhou and Yanzhou after Lv Bu's rule is still good, and the people under the rule can get a stable life. There will be no more violations of the order.

When the Xuzhou army recruited soldiers, it even aroused great popularity among the common people, and the young and strong among the common people entered the army one after another. Such a situation rarely happened under the rule of other princes.

The princes have different attitudes when they treat the common people. They value more the power of the aristocratic family. When the power of the aristocratic family is strong enough, it will help the princes more.

As for how the people will be treated in such a process, it has no great influence on the princes.

When dealing with these matters, Lu Bu had a completely different attitude from other princes. It is precisely because of this that the stability of Xuzhou and Yanzhou has been guaranteed to a greater extent.

Zang Ba's army is stationed in various counties. This is also the forefront of the Xuzhou Army's defense against the Qingzhou Army's attack. Zang Ba has confidence in this confrontation. When the situation in Xuzhou was so critical, Lu Bu was still able to lead the army. Lieutenant generals are victorious on the battlefield.

Now, after Liu Bei and Kong Rong saw the opportunity, they dared to lead the army to attack. In Zang Ba's view, such a mistake was unforgivable.

The strength of Liu Bei and Kong Rong is far behind that of Lu Bu. If it were not for Liu Biao and Yuan Shu to attack Lu Bu, it would be impossible for Liu Bei and Kong Rong to successfully invade Xuzhou.

The Xuzhou Army is an army that has grown up in battles. Even in the face of a powerful enemy, the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army will not be soft when facing the enemy, and they can even fight against the enemy. At that time, a more powerful fighting power broke out.

It is precisely because the Xuzhou Army has such a strong combat effectiveness that it has great prestige among the princes, which makes the princes have a more cautious attitude when facing the Xuzhou Army.

The current situation in Xuzhou is not very good, Zang Ba is clear, but Zang Ba has confidence in Lu Bu, this is a prince who can create miracles, no matter how many difficulties he faces, he cannot knock down Lu Bu.

It is not a simple matter to shake Lu Bu's prestige among the princes.

This war just proves the combat effectiveness of the Xuzhou Army. Zang Ba, the commander of the army, must show his formidable strength in this battle against the enemy, so that the so-called enemy can see that they want to defeat them in the war. How difficult it was for the Xuzhou army to seize the city under Lu Bu's rule.

Zang Ba has [-] soldiers and horses under his command, which is where Zang Ba's biggest capital for defending the counties lies.

However, Zang Ba believed that, relying on the cities of the counties, it would be impossible for the Qingzhou army to break through the counties even with a large number of people.

Zang Ba was also an experienced general when he led the army in battle, and his victory in battles is a good illustration.

When Tao Qian was in charge of Xuzhou, Zang Ba did not obey Tao Qian's orders at all. Even under such circumstances, Tao Qian had no other options, and even treated Zang Ba with appeasement. host.

Now that Lu Bu has such prestige in Xuzhou, the enemy army dare not presumptuously in front of Lu Bu, and the situation in Xuzhou and Yanzhou has also been further stabilized.

When war breaks out in the future, Zang Ba believes that Lu Bu will definitely be able to do more.

The progress of the war is a great challenge for the Xuzhou Army, and it is also true for the Yanzhou Army.

Zang Ba was quite ashamed of Liu Bei and Kong Rong's actions. When the situation in Xuzhou was critical, he even sent troops to attack Xuzhou, completely forgetting the failure of attacking Xuzhou.

Lu Bu's reputation among the princes is not good, but with his own efforts, Lu Bu gained a firm foothold among the princes. Such an achievement is unmatched by ordinary princes, and even more princes, in the face of Lu Bu's Time to be more cautious.

Lu Bu didn't have a good attitude when dealing with other princes, but he had very good conditions when dealing with the civil servants and generals under his command.

As long as Lu Bu can show the corresponding strength, he can get corresponding attention. Such a system will make the generals in the army work harder.

It is not easy to shake Lu Bu's position among the princes.

If not, the actions of the princes this time would not be so big.

In Zang Ba's view, such behavior is shameless. On the one hand, they are scolding Lu Bu, but on the other hand, they are doing shameless things.
