Weird Three Kingdoms

"Ha ha!old friend! 』

The laughter outside the Xiangyuan camp seemed to knock open the door of Zhang Ji's memory suddenly.

Inside the door, everything was shattered.

"How will you be here? ! Zhang Ji's eyes widened, he couldn't believe everything in front of him, the fragments of the memory door jumped and collided, and seemed to be pierced into his body, a little painful, a little hot, "You... aren't you dead? 』

Pohu Chi'er laughed loudly, "That's right!I'm the one who died once! 』

There is nothing wrong with Hu Chi'er saying that.

When Dong Zhuo failed, his subordinates will vividly and vividly staged what is called the tree falls and the monkeys scatter in the big man.

Hu Chi'er was originally a subordinate of Dong Zhuo's son-in-law Niu Fu, but after seeing Niu Fu's downfall, he became dissatisfied and took Niu Fu's head as a step forward.

In the moral view of Hu people, this is not a big deal at all.

Pohu Chi'er, like most Hu people, worships nature.

Or rather, worship the beast.

Just like a pack of wolves in the wild, when the leader wolf is strong, all the female wolves will fall over and beg for favor, and all the meat will be eaten first by the wolf king, but once the leader wolf declines, there must be some wolves in the wolf pack. The new male wolf rushed up to bite off its throat and devour its flesh and blood.

Therefore, when Niu Fu didn't know what to do, and couldn't bring any more flesh and blood to the wolves, the head wolf would naturally lose its value, and being backlashed by his subordinates was also a natural result.

But Hu Hu Chi'er is not rolling in the desert, but wants to gain benefits from the Han court. His behavior certainly does not conform to the social values ​​advocated by the big man.

Fei Qian was unwilling to take him in, and neither was Wang Yun.

Hu Chi'er originally thought that he could get benefits, but he didn't expect that he was just sent away for three melons and two dates, and then he was thrown aside, and there was no more to say...

"do you know?Over the years, I have been to many places...Shandong, the Western Regions, I have been to...' Hu Chier laughed, "I am a businessman now!"I'm doing business, I don't fight... I can't fight anymore...』

"Business is good..." Zhang Ji nodded, "Business is good..."

After a while, neither of them spoke.

A friend you haven't seen for many years is like an old classmate you haven't seen for many years. It's a surprise to meet suddenly, but...

Is there more surprise, or more joy?
Hu Chi'er watched Zhang Ji's expression carefully, then turned his head intentionally, and praised Zhang Ji, "Brothers who drank together back then, now you are the only one who is the best!"Look at this camp, look at these elite soldiers, amazing! 』

Zhang Ji laughed, then clapped his hands and said: "Brother Chi'er, you don't have to go around the bush, if you have anything to say, just say it..."

Po Hu Chi'er turned to look at Zhang Ji's guards around him, coughed slightly and said, "Are these people all your confidantes?" 』

That is to say, only a barbarian can ask such a straightforward question.

Just as Zhang Ji was about to answer, suddenly there was a baggage truck in the camp. For some unknown reason, the axle was crushed, and the goods on the truck fell down with a crash, splashing a lot of smoke and dust...

Zhang Ji couldn't help looking back, but the guard beside him didn't look back, but stared at Hu Hu Chi'er.

"Tsk..." Zhang Ji frowned slightly, and he had some bad feelings in his heart. It was like bumping into dead cats and dogs when he went out, or being hit on the head by a bird while walking on the street. "It's okay...these are my confidants...if you have anything to say, just say it..."

Po Hu Chi'er rolled his eyes and forced a smile, "Great wealth!Now there is a big fortune, right in front of the brothers! 』

Zhang Ji scratched the back of his head with his hands, pondered for a while, neither happy nor angry, "Let's listen. 』

"You and I are brothers from that place in Xiliang!We were born and died in Xiliang back then, and it was our brothers who equalized Xiqiang and stabilized the frontier together!But what have you gained?Grand Master Dong was killed, and many brothers died, and he still bears the infamy! Hu Chi'er said angrily, his eyes turned red because he didn't know what he thought of, "We were brothers back then, how happy we were together!"But... What did those people who pretended to be good people and accused Grand Master Dong of some crimes do?It was only later that I realized that no matter how nice you say it, it is actually not as good as these soldiers and horses under your hands!Just like these sons and confidants of Brother Zhang!This is the foundation, this is the source of wealth! 』

While Hu Chi'er was talking, the truck with a broken axle just got on the wheels, and I don't know what happened, maybe it didn't get stuck properly, and fell off, bouncing and rolling along the ground, which attracted many It was a few soldiers chasing after...

Zhang Ji looked back again, and then hummed.

Hu Hu Chi'er licked his lips, he felt his throat was a little dry.Before he came, he felt that things were actually very simple. They were brothers for many years. They once robbed meat in a ladle and saw each other's naked bodies in a river. As a lobbyist, wouldn't you be able to get it done with a few words?
But when he actually got in front of Zhang Ji, he suddenly felt a strange feeling, which made Pohu Chi'er a little nervous.

"Just tell me, what exactly are you doing?" Zhang Ji shook his neck, frowned and said, "You know, I'm a rough man, I can't understand the twists and turns!" 』

Po Hu Chi'er said, "No detours!"Just these guys, just these soldiers and horses!Can't Brother Zhang get a better position, higher rewards, and more wealth?Right now, Shandong is going to attack Guanzhong, this is a good opportunity!Just like when we were in Xiqiang back then, we support whoever gives more! 』

"Xiqiang? ’ Zhang Ji asked.

Hu Chi'er nodded.

Hu Chi'er's words are very familiar.

Because that’s exactly what they said back then, and that’s what they did.

Whoever pays the highest price will lose his life.

Back then, Zhang Ji didn't think there was anything wrong with this matter.

But, now...

Zhang Ji took a long breath, and seemed to see the shadow standing at the entrance of the village in his mind again.

At that time, it seemed that he himself said so about the bright red figure.

"Wait until I make a lot of money!Sure to make big bucks! 』

"Don't worry!There must be great wealth! 』

"Whoever pays more money, I will do it with him!"I'll definitely be back for the money I've made! 』

"What can I do here?Loess, loess, loess from the same place! 』

"Based on my ability, where can I go in the world? ! 』

"Two years, up to three years!"I'll be right back!Three years! 』

three years...

Ha ha.

Zhang Ji smiled.

Po Hu Chi'er smiled nervously along with him.

The battle of Xiqiang lasted for three years and three years.

Many people died, but still no money.

When Dong Zhuo entered the capital, he climbed up so fast that even Dong Zhuo himself could not react

After I really settled down, I went back to look for it, only to find that the flowers were similar every year, and the beauty of the past was no longer there...

Zhang Ji spent all his blood on the Xiqiang battlefield, and his lover also spent his face and blood on waiting.

and then?
At this moment, Zhang Ji realized that he didn't want to face that old and weak lover because he didn't dare to admit his mistakes, and he didn't want to face the cruel reality...

"It's a pity back then..." Zhang Ji couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

Po Hu Chi'er quickly said: "Don't be a pity... Now that Brother Zhang has so many people, and they happen to be in such a critical place, isn't it a good opportunity for Brother Zhang from heaven?"Just right for a good price!Fertile land, houses, gold and silver, jewelry, soldiers, war horses, at that time, you can have as many as you want? !Brother, now is really the best opportunity!Great wealth! 』

Zhang Ji laughed.

Po Hu Chi'er seemed relieved, and also laughed.

But the guards standing on Zhang Ji's side had some changes in their eyes.Some of Zhang Ji's guards were brought from Xiliang in the early years, and of course some were added later. Although most of them were from Liangzhou and Bingzhou, they were not from the same place.Normally, as Zhang Ji's guard, there was naturally no conflict, but now that a lobbyist came suddenly, there were naturally some differences.

When Zhang Ji seemed to be about to say something, one of the guards standing aside, who was older, suddenly coughed.

Zhang Ji was taken aback, and turned his head to look.

I saw the old guard put his hands on the shoulders of a young guard while coughing like he was out of breath, his face flushed a little...

Zhang Ji looked at it, and suddenly his heart skipped a beat!
For the older soldiers who followed Zhang Ji, of course Zhang Ji was in charge of everything, and Zhang Ji could do whatever he said.This is also a common pattern in Xiliang, and it is also the original custom of the Han Dynasty.

And the other guards...

General.

He is both general and master.

The last years of the Han Dynasty were the era when the system collapsed, and this system naturally included the military system.In the early days of the Han Dynasty, the conscription system was the mainstream, and it created Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to expel the Huns and fight against Mobei.

The conscription system was in the early and middle Western Han Dynasty, when the centralized power was still able to control the local area, both the state and county soldiers and the central army could still fully obey the orders of the central government.The Han Dynasty also guaranteed enough soldiers because of such a system, which looks perfect.

However, this system also hides great flaws and hidden dangers.

It's very simple. If it's a general in the border area, after a year of hard work, he just familiarized these peasants with the battlefield environment, taught them formation and basic marching instructions, and then he was ready to show his skills and beat the enemy.As a result, the second year has come, and the service period of the soldiers you taught last year has expired, and they all have to be disarmed and return to the fields to farm. You can only take the newly transferred soldiers from the local area to deal with the raging enemies...

Recruits, in the face of tyrannical enemies, are naturally vulnerable.

The army was defeated.

The imperial court sent someone to hold him accountable.

Could this be a problem with the court system?
It must be the general's problem!

After autumn, ask to cut.

The reason after the fall is to see if you have any relationship, small money, can clear things up, just like later generations of American officials who have drunk driving accidents, always test the alcohol level the next day, always give officials Is there a little time for activities?

Of course, if you can't move, don't complain if you should beheaded.

Not only that, this military system is not only extremely dependent on the great demand for foreign conquest wars, but also requires strong support from a strong central government.Once the degree of centralization began to weaken, the local army began to be gradually abandoned. Therefore, after Guangwu, the recruitment system gradually rose.

Some people in later generations said that there was no separation between civil and military families in the Han Dynasty, but in fact a restriction was added, and it was the early Han Dynasty.

At the end of the Han Dynasty, because of the problem of the military system, the imperial court also realized that the recruitment system provided a favorable soil for the formation of local warlords, and it also took precautions against this. The most common ones were the county soldiers or state soldiers, which were controlled by the local prefects. Command, but the local prefect will not add a general number, and the general cannot also serve as a local official, and the distinction between civil and military begins to form.

However, something is different now...

Everyone probably knew there was a problem before, but nothing major happened, so there was no rush.

And right now, I have to be in a hurry...

Especially seeing the coquettish figure in Guanzhong, under the influence of Fei Qian, Cao Cao and Sun Quan are also exploring and reforming the military system at the moment of the Han Dynasty.

Different from Fei Qian's variant recruitment system, Cao Cao implemented the "Scholar System".This kind of military system became the main model in the Wei and Jin Dynasties in history, and the so-called "soldiers" in later generations came from this.

The short answer is to give a title.

After all, in the Han Dynasty, the title of "Shi" is still very good, so Cao Cao wrote "Shi" on the surface, but actually he was a "slave" underneath. The soldiers were included in the management in the name of "Shi Ji". The population in 』can only become a military population and cannot be transferred to other occupations, and all the population in the registration are subject to military needs and engage in a series of tasks such as combat and farming.

These military systems are not completely unified, so whether it is Guanzhong, Shandong or Jiangdong, there are actually multiple military systems in parallel.

Of course Zhang Ji is the same here.There are the early part of the recognition of the master, there are private soldiers recruited later, there are professional recruits recruited by the central government for supplementary rotation, and ordinary soldiers recruited by the local government...

So at the very beginning, Zhang Ji said carelessly that they were all confidantes, but in fact, not all of them, or it should be said not all of them.Especially after the establishment of Fei Qian's lecture hall in Chang'an, after training a large number of middle and low-level soldiers every year, the guards around the generals are not completely recruited by themselves.

this point is very important.

For the pawns, the concept of "general" has begun to shift. After all, pawns used to be attached to generals from birth to death, but now, pawns have one more choice. Choose to retire and become a local inspector, or go home to farm, or go to the lecture hall for further training.

The military students who have completed their advanced studies will also be assigned to different places.

In such a process of constant replacement, the generals and private soldiers under Fei Qian's command were naturally not so pure.

If Zhang Ji had roared in the early days, most of the soldiers under him would have followed suit.

But now...

Even the guards around Zhang Ji have been vaguely distinguished.

Those old soldiers who followed Zhang Ji were naturally dominated by Zhang Ji, and they could see something strange when they stood behind, but at this time, they couldn't say that they were drunk on the spot, otherwise Zhang Ji would be forced to choose a second choice. One of the Jedi, so can only stand on one side, pretending to cough, in order to attract Zhang Ji's attention...

The young guard held the handle of the knife and frowned silently.

The older guard forced a smile and waved his hands, as if to indicate that his cough is fine...

Yes, there is nothing wrong with coughing, but Zhang Ji!
Zhang Ji exhaled slowly, nodded slightly, then raised his head, and remained silent for a while.

"how? ’ Po Hu Chi’er asked, ‘Wealth and honor are right in front of us now, brothers can decide with one word!At that time, land property, houses, beauties and money will have everything! 』

"Beauty? 』Zhang Ji was taken aback.

Po Hu Chi'er nodded and said, "That's right!Beauty!What do you like bro?The fatter ones, the thinner ones, or the beautiful women in Shandong, or the thin waists and long legs in the Western Regions?At that time, I will definitely have what I want! 』

Zhang Ji clicked his tongue, "Brother, my mother-in-law... just passed away not long ago..."

"ah? ’ Hu Chi’er blinked, not knowing what to say for a moment.

Sorry?Zhang Ji doesn't seem to be very "sorrowful" like this.

So congratulations?It doesn't seem quite right either.

Feel sorry?I didn't kill his wife, why should I apologize?

"Back then...hehe..." Zhang Ji laughed twice, "That's what I told my mother-in-law back then... There will be great wealth in the future... I will definitely give her a big house, many, many acres, a lot, a lot cattle and sheep... I promised a lot, but I didn't do a few...』

Hu Chi'er suddenly felt something was wrong, "Brother, this...isn't this..."

"Listen to me first. Zhang Ji stretched out his hand and interrupted Hu Chi'er's words, "If you came a few years ago, even if you don't have any wealth, just say you want to use me, brother, and I will walk with you... Phew... But , it’s different now...」

"What's the difference? ’ Hu Chi’er stood up and shouted, ‘Aren’t we brothers back then?Why is there anything before and now?Could it be that the brotherhood between you and me was fake back then? 』

Zhang Ji suddenly felt a little sad, "Back then, we were really brothers... But now the times have changed... It's changed... You go, I won't send you off! 』

Zhang Ji waved his hands, looking a little dispirited, and then turned his back, obviously not in the mood to continue explaining to Hu Hu Chier, or explaining something.

Back then, they shared a morsel of meat, shared a morsel of wine, went to battle together to kill the enemy, and sat bloodied together in the pile of dead men to wrap their wounds.On the battlefield, Zhang Ji saved Po Hu Chi'er's life, and Po Hu Chi'er also survived the sword for Zhang Ji.

Back then, it was real brothers.

At that time, even if there was no wealth or wealth to share, one would just say hello, life and death would be ignored...

However, time has passed.

Even if a contract is signed, the "brothers" of Heizi in white can kick out the door, expressing that they are sending talents for the society, let alone the "brothers" who don't even have a contract and meet again after the disaster is approaching?
Hu Chi'er's face darkened slightly, "Okay...in that case, I have no choice but to..."

In the middle of talking, Hu Chi'er suddenly pulled out a short blade from under the leather robe, and stabbed straight at Zhang Ji's back!
