After finalizing the military ranks, Liu Bei let his generals select the warriors in the army on their own to form an army. He has more important things to do, which is to convene the six counties of Qingzhou to discuss the matter.

As a pastor of a state, if you can't fully understand your own territory, you will be hollowed out by the snakes below. Isn't it true that the local governors of later generations will go down to inspect after taking office, just to avoid being deceived? As the saying goes, knowing one's opponent and knowing oneself will not be defeated in a hundred battles, this sentence is not only applicable to military affairs, but also to politics.

A few days later, Hua Chong, the prime minister of the plains, Cui Yu, the prime minister of Jinan, Liu Hong, the prime minister of Qi, Zhang Bo, the Taishou of Le'an, and Kong Rong, the prime minister of the Beihai, gathered in Linjiang to wait for the summons of Liu Bei, the new master of Qingzhou. Only Donglai Taishou Fan Ming did not arrive. Liu Bei remained silent and secretly sent people to inquire about the news, and within a few days, the news came that Gongsun Du of Liaodong had invaded the border, and Fan Mingzheng led the army and civilians to resist.

However, it turned out that Gongsun Du crossed the sea that year, took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains and attacked Donglai counties, set up his own orders, and recruited displaced people. Later, it was repeatedly broken by Fan Ming. The two sides surround Donglai County, you come and go, and you are very happy. Although Gongsun Du is strong and strong, but he is far away from the sea, the soldiers are tired and tired, and even though Fan Ming has few people, he is waiting for work at ease and taking advantage of the geographical advantage, and the two sides are unable to hold each other. This tug-of-war has hurt the people, so the people of Donglai have avoided other counties.

Liu Bei learned that his heart was in turmoil, and he secretly said that Gongsun Du didn't know what to do, and he came to Qingzhou by himself, but he didn't know how to restrain himself. It is said that after Qingzhou's government affairs are stable, he will cross the sea to meet the king of Liaodong for a while. Of course, the urgent need at the moment is to send troops to Donglai to help Taishou Fan Ming.

So Liu Bei summoned Liu Ke and asked him to lead 2,000 pro-army soldiers to Donglai, unite with Fan Ming, break Gongsun Du's men and horses, and sweep Donglai County. Where is Liu Ke willing to go, he shook his head like a rattle and said: "Fifth brother, if I go to Donglai, who will protect you well?" ”

Liu Bei and Liu Ke grew up in a small area, and they have a close relationship, because since the beginning of the army, Liu Ke has always been a pro-guard general, and he must not leave the left and right. If it weren't for the fact that the whole army in Qingzhou had not been completed, the generals would be busy in the dark, and Liu Bei would really be reluctant to let Liu Ke go on the expedition. But this time there was really no way, the generals couldn't get out for the time being, so Liu Ke had to go. Liu Ke's ability is only inferior to Guan, Zhang, and Huang, and a little more powerful than Yan Yan, so he must be fine. So Liu Bei smiled and said: "Eleven, you went, isn't there still Ke'er?" Three thousand Banyu troops, can't they protect me? When you go this time, you must show all your skills to break the Liaodong Army, so that the people of Qingzhou and Gongsun Du can know the power of the army under my command! Do you remember? ”

Liu Ke saw that Liu Bei had made up his mind and entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, so he knelt down on one knee and bowed: "I respect the order of the lord, I will definitely succeed in the battle this time, start the reputation of the Qingzhou army, and live up to the trust of the lord!" ”

Liu Bei picked up Liu Ke and looked at Liu Ke, who had grown taller than himself, and vaguely, the little boy who followed him back then seemed to reappear. Liu Bei smiled and patted Liu Ke's shoulder, and said, "Go, be careful!" ”

Liu Ke led the army to Donglai, and Liu Bei conveniently received the other five ministers in the mansion. Liu Bei has never seen any of the five people, but Liu Bei has been famous for a long time for Kong Rong and Kong Wenju. When Kong Rong was recruited by the former lieutenant Yang Ci, Liu Bei was an official outside, and he was on the side of fate.

Everyone took a roll call one by one and greeted the state pastor, and Liu Bei smiled and helped them up one by one. After everyone sat down, Kong Rong first opened his voice and said: "I am very happy to hear that the prince is out of Qingzhou. I have heard the prestige of the prince for a long time, and the prince has come here, and my Qingzhou has been safe since then. ”

Liu Bei saw Kong Rong, and secretly said that he was indeed a descendant of the Kong family and a contemporary celebrity. Among the five people, Kong Rong has a strange appearance, refreshed spirit, and a special demeanor, which makes people see that they are handsome and outstanding at a glance.

When Liu Bei saw Kong Rong speak, he smiled and said, "Wenju is ridiculously praised." The great name of Wenju, I also yearn for a long time. And Wenju has repeatedly practiced benevolent government in Beihai and repeatedly done good deeds. It is worthy of the name of a celebrity. ”

Everyone saw that Liu Bei seemed to be very good at talking, so they gradually let down their guards. There was a lot of laughter in the hall for a while, and the atmosphere gradually got better. The ministers glanced at each other, and said in their hearts that Liu Bei has a great reputation, and now it seems that it is nothing more than that, when he came to Qingzhou, if he wants to govern Qingzhou, he doesn't have to rely on us.

Everyone was secretly proud, and they saw Liu Bei's words change, and said: "When I first came to Qingzhou, I was at a loss for the situation and political affairs in Qingzhou. The kings have been in the place for a long time, each of them is the county and the country, and the shepherd of the Son of Heaven is on one side. Do you have a good word to teach me? ”

Everyone was overjoyed, thinking that Liu Bei was courting them. So you said a word to me, and it was very lively. Some say that it is necessary to promote education and set up schools; Some say that they will send elite soldiers to kill traitors and bandits; It is said that the displaced people will be reined in...... Between the words, it seems that Liu Bei's qualifications as a county commander and a taishou have been completely forgotten. looks high, but he almost doesn't point fingers. Hearing this, Liu Bei sneered. And everyone saw Liu Bei nodding and smiling, which was even more energetic.

The plain Xianghua Chong didn't know what to do, and shook his head and said: "When the prince first came, he didn't know the situation in Qingzhou. I can guarantee one person as the governor of Qingzhou. If the prince has the help of this person, he will definitely be like a tiger with wings......"

Before he finished speaking, everyone reacted. Immediately, someone intercepted Hua Chong's words, and hurriedly said to Liu Bei: "Junhou, I can also guarantee one person, and the long history and the main book can be competent......"

Before this person finished speaking, he was intercepted by others and recommended candidates to Liu Bei. If you don't know anything, you just say that these people are enthusiastic and recommend talents to Liu Bei.

The more Liu Bei listened, the more annoyed he became. Although the smile on the corner of his mouth was there, the chill in his eyes was getting heavier and heavier. Whether it is a long history or a master book, they are all the henchmen of the governor of a place. How can it be so easy to allow people? When these people saw that they had just arrived, they wanted to deceive them and arrange candidates around them. But I don't want to think about who I am. It seems that he is still too good at talking, Liu Bei sighed, and then knocked on the bookcase in front of him.

When everyone saw Liu Bei's signal, they stopped one after another. Liu Bei said with a smile on his face: "I will not mention the expedition of the second official in my shogunate. The princes had a long talk, and Liu Bei benefited a lot. However, the land under the jurisdiction of the princes is rarely discussed, why is this? I want to know the population, land, taxes, and other figures of the cities under the jurisdiction of the princes, and ask the princes to teach me! ”

As soon as Liu Bei said this, the hall was suddenly silent. Everyone seemed to feel a cold wind blowing through their hearts, and they were extremely uncomfortable. Pingyuan Xianghua rushed and said: "Junhou, this is a turbid business. The status of the prince is noble, why do you need to know. These troubled matters can be left to our subordinates. Why bother with this? ”

Liu Bei finally couldn't bear it anymore, and after a few shots, he stood up and sneered: "I am the state pastor, and you don't want me to know the affairs of the counties under my jurisdiction, and you don't want me to know the pros and cons of government affairs." Want to make me a puppet? ”

His words are like daggers and sharp blades, and his words are heartfelt. Cold sweat broke out on everyone's heads all of a sudden, and Hua Chong hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "The subordinates don't dare!" ”

Liu Bei has been in the army for a long time, and for many years, he has been true to his words and follows the law. At this time, he stood up and stood in front of everyone, under the momentum of the outgoing momentum, and finally everyone reacted. Standing in front of them was not a young state pastor with a good face. It is the master of an army who has been in battle for a long time, has been decisive in killing, and has countless lives and blood on his hands. I still want to play tricks in front of him, but I'm afraid that people will already see the fire and see everyone's hearts clearly, right?

Liu Bei let Hua Chong kneel on the ground, and said with a cold expression: "Plain Xiang Hua Chong, let me ask you, how many cities are under the jurisdiction of the Plains Country?" How many households are there? How many fields are there? What is produced in the country? What about law and order? What about indoctrination? Why don't you hurry up with me? ”

Every time Liu Bei asked, Hua Chong's body trembled. After a long time, he said: "There are nine cities in the country, there are less than 100,000 households, and Dingkou is about hundreds of thousands, and the land and land are ......."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Liu Bei sneer and said, "About touching?" It turns out that this is how the prime minister of Hua governed the plain country. ”

Without waiting for Hua Chong to react, Liu Bei took out a roll of silk silk from his sleeve, spread it out and read: "In the sixth year of Zhongping, Er colluded with the King of the Plains to conceal hundreds of homeless households, divide them separately, and privately occupy more than 10,000 acres of land belonging to the Yellow Turban Rebellion. In the first year of the first peace, Er was at odds with the big families in the country, and instructed his subordinates to plant trouble, resulting in countless deaths and injuries in the Li family. He was also greedy for money, and made private moves, and made a mess of officials...... Prime Minister Hua, do you want me to continue reading? ”

Hua Chong's body trembled, his heart was terrified, and he secretly said that this person was really a demon, and he did these things seamlessly, how could he know? Countless thoughts flashed in his heart in an instant, but Hua Chong knew that he had to quickly come up with a way to pass this level, otherwise his life would be difficult to protect. As long as he returned to the plains, he would roll up the money he had accumulated over the years and run away. I can't stay in this place anymore. As for the rebellion, Hua Chong never thought of this idea at all.

So Hua Chong snorted and cried, he knelt on the ground and walked a few steps, raised his head and cried: "Prince, Fei Hua Chong wants to do this." All of the previous ones were instructed by Liu Shuo, the king of the plains. He is a royal family and has a noble status, but he has an order, Hua Chong does not dare to disobey! I hope that the prince will see clearly! After speaking, kowtowing is like pounding onions.

When Liu Bei saw this person, his face was full of tears and snot, and he sinisterly put all the blame on the King of the Plains. concluded that this person was a senior actor. It is a fact that the successive magistrates and the royal families of the territories have always been at odds. But Hua Chong wanted to use this to stir up the contradiction between himself and Liu Shuo, the king of the plains, so as to divert his attention and get rid of his own responsibility. Then he was wrong.

But seeing Liu Bei, he shouted: "Where are the left and right, quickly take down this person with me!" Seeing a group of brightly armored guards walking in, Hua Chong couldn't help but say, so he pressed Hua Chong to the ground like a wolf, tied it up, and carried it out.

Everyone saw that Hua Chong was still a guest of honor, talking and laughing with everyone, who would have thought that he would become a prisoner in an instant? When he looked at Liu Bei again, he couldn't help but feel a little more afraid in his eyes.

The only Kong Rong, when he saw that Hua Chong was captured, his clothes were scattered, and Sven was in mourning, so he couldn't help but take a step forward and said: "Junhou, the prime minister of Hua Guo is a high-ranking official of 2,000 stones, do you want to show the Ming Pavilion and interrogate him carefully?" If the prince does not teach and is punished, I am afraid that the people will not be convinced. ”

Among the crowd, only Kong Rong is quite truthful, and his attitude is also very upright, unlike others, who are full of big words, and have to recommend inexplicable people to themselves, wanting to install eyeliner in the house. So Liu Bei smiled at Kong Rong gently and said, "Wenju, come and see." ”

After Liu Bei handed the silk to Kong Rong, he said: "Everything recorded on it has human and material evidence. I have been carefully verified, and everything is true! ”

After reading it, Kong Rong's face was full of surprise, and he said, "I didn't expect it to be like this!" ”

Liu Bei smiled and didn't answer, he is also an official of the same state, if he wants to say that what Hua Chong did Kong Rong has no rumors at all, he doesn't believe it. But he didn't bother to think too much. It's okay not to be confused about big things.

So when Liu Bei set his eyes on Cui Yu, the prime minister of Jinan, Cui Yu was like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, telling everything he knew about the information in Jinan, and he would never dare to hide it in the slightest.
