Seventy-six suitable candidates to support Lu Zhi
Afraid that Zuo Feng didn't understand, Guo Peng repeated it again.
"And please make sure that the angels don't do this."
Guo Peng slowly spoke: "Anges only need to tell the truth about what they saw. This is the responsibility of an angel. These gifts are just given to me by someone, and have nothing to do with the teacher, and have nothing to do with the good words. Angels don't need to do this."
"this……"
Zuo Feng was a little surprised.
Taking money to do things is a fine tradition of eunuchs. If you don’t do things, you can get money. This does not comply with the rules, and Zuo Feng felt sorry for it.
After thinking for a while, Zuo Feng asked, "Can Guo Lang say it clearly? I am very confused in my mind and I don't understand what Guo Lang means."
"The meaning is very clear."
Guo Peng smiled and said, "The teacher is upright and unrestrained. This time he offended the angel. As a result, after the angel returned, he gave good words to the emperor and praised the teacher. The teacher must know that there is something wrong with this matter. The first person to doubt is the angel. At that time, the teacher will get angry and expel the angel from the sect. What should I do?"
“…”
Zuo Feng widened his eyes: "Is this... really what Guo Lang did alone?"
"Yes, the teacher doesn't know about this."
Guo Peng nodded.
"Guo Lang, this...is something..."
Zuo Feng had a little difficulty in digesting this matter for a while.
"Angels need not worry. This time, there is no need for angels to give good words. If the angels can make the emperor issue an edict to scold the teacher and do not have any other actions, that would be the best."
Zuo Feng frowned and thought for a while, and suddenly he figured it out.
"Guo Lang, what a plan."
Zuo Feng smiled.
Guo Peng also smiled.
"The angel has been too much. The teacher has indeed committed the angel. I am here to compensate the teacher. But please don't be angry with the angel and be sure not to let the teacher be replaced. Otherwise, the teacher will be replaced and the future of our soldiers will be uncertain. This battle is really difficult to fight."
Zuo Feng understood, understood everything, looked up and down Guo Peng, and nodded.
"Yingchuan Guo Lang, it's really not easy. But Guo Lang, who took this gold, wanted to slander Mr. Lu, and even asked His Majesty to reprimand him. I have a guilty conscience, and holding this gold is hot."
Guo Peng shook his head and smiled.
"It is not a simple matter to be able to make His Majesty rebuke but not shake the position of the teacher. You also need to worry about the angel. In addition, please help me keep this matter confidential. I don't want to be expelled from the sect by the teacher."
After Guo Peng said this, Zuo Feng nodded.
"Please rest assured that Guo Lang is a little bit small. I can do it easily. If Guo Lang has any inconvenient things in the future, why not come to see me? Although I am a low-level person, I am a person around the emperor after all, and it is easier to speak and do things."
Good guy, he started selling himself.
But he was wrong.
As the emperor is close to the emperor, it is easier to speak and do things, otherwise the position of Taifu would not be so popular.
Zuo Feng probably had the idea of making friends with Guo Peng. Guo Peng felt that this was not a bad thing, so he nodded and watched Zuo Feng leave.
On the way back, the young follower next to Zuo Feng asked about what had just happened, and was quite surprised when he learned about it.
"I don't ask for good things, but instead ask for reprimand? Is Guo Peng stupid?"
"You are stupid!"
Zuo Feng glared at the young follower: "Shut up your mouth after you go back. Don't tell anyone about this, otherwise be careful of your skin!"
The young follower was startled and dared not speak.
After a while, Zuo Feng said with a sigh: "Guo Peng, Guo Zifeng, is not an ordinary person. I went out to do business and met many people. I have never seen a person like Guo Zifeng, Lu Zhi's disciple, Cao's son-in-law, and may be able to reach somewhere in the future..."
The young follower didn't understand what Zuo Feng meant, but he almost understood that this person named Guo Peng was not easy to mess with. When he saw him in the future, he had to be careful to serve him.
After Zuo Feng returned to Luoyang, he went straight to Lingdi to report what he saw and heard.
Using his verbal skills, he successfully made Emperor Ling issue an order to reprimand Lu Zhi for his slow action, asking Lu Zhi to understand the difficulty of the court in providing the army's food and wages, speed up the attack on Zhang Jiao, and resolve the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
Then Emperor Ling thought about what Zuo Feng said about Zhang Jiao's subordinates having tens of thousands of soldiers and thought that Lu Zhi might be a little difficult to deal with it alone. So he thought about it and decided to add a general to support Lu Zhi in order to quell the Yellow Turban Rebellion as soon as possible.
Generally speaking, Kansai became a general and Kansai became a prime minister. This was the norm in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Kansai declined due to long-term peace, while Kansai was strong because of the mixed residence of Han and Hu.
During the Han-Qiang War, the Eastern Han court did not use the local people in Liangzhou to suppress the rebellion in order to curb the local forces in Liangzhou. As a result, the soldiers of Guandong were not familiar with the terrain and lacked training and were defeated repeatedly. As a result, the Eastern Han court could only use the local people in Liangzhou to fight against the Qiang people.
The result was gratifying. The Liangzhou corps established had strong combat power and outstanding generals emerged in many ways. They won the Han-Qiang War for a hundred years. The famous Liangzhou Sanming almost became a representative military general in the middle and late Eastern Han Dynasty.
However, under the national policy of emphasizing culture and neglecting military affairs, Liangzhou military people generally have no good ending.
None of Liangzhou's Sanming had a good ending, so the relationship between the local forces in Liangzhou and the Luoyang court was quite poor. Liangzhou had a low trust in the central government, especially after Duan Bing died.
The miserable fate of Sanming warned all the powerful generals from Liangzhou, making them cautious about the central court from then on and always doubt the intentions of the court.
Especially when the court wants to deprive military power, it must keep its eyes open and never be confused by the promise of temporary official positions.
This is a huge hidden danger.
However, the long-term peaceful life made the Kanto people not good at fighting. The Eastern Han Dynasty court had to rely on the Kanto warriors during the war. This is an indisputable fact.
It was as if at this time, the appropriate candidates selected by the Eastern Han Dynasty to support Lu Zhi were the warriors of Xiliang, Dong Zhuo and Dong Zhongying.
Dong Zhuo was born in Yingchuan because his father was a minor official in Yingchuan at that time. After growing up a little, Dong Zhuo returned to his hometown in Liangzhou with his resigned father and began his own journey of heroism.
This is also the usual style of the children of powerful families in the late Han Dynasty. Especially in Liangzhou where Han and Hu live together, they cannot get along with their own culture. Only by being strong, generous and loyal can they become famous.
Dong Zhuo relied on his strong, generous and loyal style, not only could he eat among the Han people, but also among the Qiang tribes. Many people were willing to follow him and do his part.
Therefore, Dong Zhuo's troops included not only Han people, but also Qiang people and other ethnic groups, which was a powerful mixed force.
After becoming an adult, Dong Zhuo was recruited as an official by the governor of Liangzhou. When he encountered the attack of the Xiongnu, he led his troops to defeat the Xiongnu, beheaded more than 1,000 people, and made great contributions. He became a member of the Liangzhou military group.
Later, a rebellion between the Qiang and Xianbei people broke out again in Liangzhou. Dong Zhuo served as Zhang Huan's army Sima, quelling the rebellion together, accumulating military achievements, and successively held official positions in Yizhou, Bingzhou. However, the crime was probably implicated by Dong Zhuo's boss at that time, and he was dismissed.
Due to such a blow, Dong Zhuo gradually became smarter. Through Duan Yan, who was also from Liangzhou, he was recommended to enter the Duke Mansion by Duan Yan. He was then recruited as an official by the Situ Yuan Wei at that time, and became a member of the huge group of former officials of the Yuan family.
Later, Dong Zhuo became the Yulin Lang of Emperor Huan and was promoted step by step. With this experience, Dong Zhuo began to learn to use his own advantages to avoid risks, earn benefits, and fight wits and courage with the Eastern Han government that suppressed the warriors.
At this time, Dong Zhuo held the position of Hedong Prefect.
Hedong was not far from Luoyang, and Dong Zhuo had troops who were good at fighting in Liangzhou. So with the recommendation of the eunuch, the court decided to recruit Dong Zhuo as Lu Zhi's deputy, obeyed Lu Zhi's orders and attacked Zhang Jiao together.
