Lu Bu, God of War of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 336 Xiliang Academy
"General, although Zang Ba fought bravely, he lacked strategy. It might be inappropriate for the general to let them fight like this." Seeing Zang Ba and Wei Xu leave happily, Zhang Liao beside him said to Lu Bu with a slight frown.

"Hehe, they are just our vanguard. Besides, there will be no risks in that war. It's time for them to learn to be on their own. During this time, you can help formulate a plan for fighting against Xianbei. Once Zhou Jin understands the situation in Yanchi After figuring it out, we will launch an attack on Xianbei, and the actions of Zang Ba and Wei Xu can also help us collect a lot of intelligence." In Lu Bu's view, Gao Shun and Zhang Liao are his right and left hands, Gao Shun is in charge of defense and construction, and Zhang Liao The main campaign.

"Yes, I understand." Knowing Lu Bu's plan, Zhang Liao didn't say anything more.

"Now let's discuss another matter. This Liangzhou is now our world, but as the saying goes, the name is not right and the words are not right. The next step is that Liangzhou needs a state shepherd. Can you tell me who is the most suitable?" Originally Liangzhou As soon as the fight was over, the generals thought that Lu Bu would impatiently go to the court to ask him to be the shepherd of Liangzhou, but they never saw Lu Bu mention it. Although the generals were impatient, Liangzhou had just calmed down and had no time to say anything. Today Lu Bu presided over the meeting. Zhang Liao thought that Lu Bu would announce this matter to the generals from the beginning, but he did not expect that until this time, several generals had already left, and Lu Bu mentioned this matter.

"We ask my lord to ascend to the position of shepherd of Liangzhou as soon as possible." Seeing Lu Bu mentioning it, all the generals knelt down and asked Lu Bu to be the shepherd of Liangzhou.

"Hehe, do you really think that I have won the position of Liangzhou Mu?" Lu Bu just shook his head and smiled after hearing what the generals said, not caring.Of course Lu Bu understood what the generals thought, but Lu Bu didn't want to be the Liangzhou shepherd.

"General, this Liangzhou is originally the general's territory. The general deserves this position. Whoever dares to say anything, I, Dian Wei, will kill him." At this time, Dian Wei, who had been standing silently behind Lu Bu, suddenly stood up and said. .These words spoke out the hearts of the generals.

"Hehe, although I really want to take this Liangzhou pastoral position, my statement is messy. Even if I take this Liangzhou pastoral position, it is difficult to get the approval of the world. So I deliberately let my father-in-law Cai I don’t know what you think about Yong being the shepherd of Liangzhou.” The reason why Lu Bu didn’t want to be the shepherd of Liangzhou was not because Lu Bu didn’t want to, but Lu Bu felt that once he became the shepherd of Liangzhou, it would be difficult for him to attract Liangzhou in the future. When it comes to talents, the loss outweighs the gain. Compared with the false name, Lu Bu prefers real things. Even if Cai Yong became the shepherd of Liangzhou, it is not Lu Bu who has the final say in Liangzhou.

"This matter is not right for the general, and the general also said that the name is not right. If the general recommends Mr. Cai to be the shepherd of Liangzhou, what will the general do? What should we generals who follow the general do? At that time People in the world will definitely say that the general is trying to plot against the superior, and the general is just asking for trouble?" At this time, Gao Shun stood up and said to Lv Bu, and when he said this, all the generals felt that it was reasonable, even Lv Bu was a little moved, but Lv Bu Knowing that Cai Yong is a stubborn old man, once Cai Yong became the shepherd of Liangzhou, when Lu Bu and Cai Yong were at odds, wouldn't the officials below know what to do, which would more easily cause chaos in Liangzhou.

However, it is indeed possible for Lu Bu to be the shepherd of Liangzhou. Like Lu Bu said, Lu Bu's notoriety is now outside, and Liangzhou will no longer be able to attract talents.

"Isn't there such a way?" Although Lu Bu wanted Cai Yong to be the shepherd of Liangzhou, this would also have a negative impact, that is, because Lu Bu could not become the shepherd of Liangzhou justifiably, then these people under Lu Bu would also become the shepherd of Liangzhou. The not-so-glamorous existence will deal a great blow to the soldiers of Lu Bu's army, but Lu Bu has to consider this point.

"General, the position of Liangzhou Shepherd cannot be given up. As for attracting talents, the young general thinks that those who only care about their fame and misunderstand the general, the general doesn't care. If the general feels that the manpower is too small, he can actually cultivate it by himself. Why do you want it?" Care about those mediocre people." At this time Zhang Liao said suddenly, while speaking he glanced at Xun Yu's uncle and nephew who had been sitting in the back, as if to say that Xun Yu and the two were mediocre people who couldn't see Lu Bu clearly.

"Do you train yourself? Well, you're right." Zhang Liao's words reminded Lu Bu why he kept digging out talents.Now that I own a state, I can cultivate talents by myself. There is no need to keep looking at those scholars and sighing for my reputation.When it comes to cultivating talents, Lu Bu also has an advantage. Cai Yong is a great Confucianist in the world, and Xun Yu and Xun You also have the talents of Wang Zuo. Even if these people are not for their own use, can they still fool the students if they are asked to teach?Thinking of this, Lu Bu immediately became concerned. Since he didn't have to worry about not being able to recruit talents, then Lu Bu didn't have to give up the position of Liangzhou Mu.

A few days later, in a quiet mountain forest outside the west gate of Jincheng, large-scale construction was underway. This was the place where Lu Bu used to train talents to build an academy.

"Please look, general, this is the main hall of our academy. After it is completed, it can accommodate hundreds of students to teach at the same time." Seeing Lu Bu coming to visit, an old man came out and saluted Lu Bu, and then introduced that this person is not someone else. It was Cai Zhong, the old housekeeper of the Cai family. As soon as Cai Yong heard that Lu Bu was going to build an academy, he took over the entire project.For a Confucian like Cai Yong, his interest in being an official is far less than his interest in teaching and learning. This is why Cai Yong especially supported him when he heard that Lu Bu was going to build an academy.

"Hehe, it looks good. I don't know if your master has already named this academy?" Seeing Cai Zhong introduce himself, Lu Bu nodded and asked casually.

"What do you think this academy should be called?" At this moment, a voice came from behind, and when Lu Bu looked back, it was Cai Yong who spoke.

"Hey, my father-in-law naturally knows that I don't have much ink in my stomach, so it makes me choose a name, isn't it difficult for me?" Seeing Cai Yong coming, Lu Bu said with a smile, although Lu Bu can also name the academy casually, but the academy It's the academy, how can this name be casual, if it is not good, it will be laughed at, no matter how Lu Bu is now a prince of a town, he will soon recognize Lord Zhou Mu.

"Fengxian doesn't need to care about this. The education of my big man was originally established in the capital when Emperor Guangwu stepped on the Taixue, and then gradually declined. Now it has declined. Fengxian was able to establish an academy. Fortunately, the name of this academy should be given first. I, Cai Yong, wish to complete the compilation of Hanshu, and now I can preside over this academy and pass on what I have learned all my life to future generations. I have no regrets in this life." Cai Yong Although he has a lot of grudges against Lu Bu, he strongly agrees with Lu Bu's establishment of the academy, and believes that this is a great development of education.This was something Lu Bu had never thought of when he established the academy.But seeing Cai Yong so happy, Lu Bu felt relieved, this is indeed a good start.

"In this case, I think this academy should be called Liangzhou Academy. In the future, I will establish academies in every state, so that people all over the world can have the opportunity to listen to the words of the sage." Seeing that Cai Yong was happy, Lu Bu also got a little excited and established in every state Academy, doesn't that show that Lu Bu has the ambition to dominate the world.

"Fengxian, it's good that you have such ambitions, but have you ever thought about where you will be sent to Emperor Han in the future?" After hearing Lu Bu's words, Cai Yong asked worriedly.It is of course a good thing that Lu Bu can rule the world, but Cai Yong, who is proficient in history, naturally understands the difficulty of doing so.Although the Han Dynasty is withered, they must be Han officials, but Cai Yong also understands that the current Han Emperor can no longer support the Han Dynasty, so when a powerful minister supports the world again, the world will still be the Han Dynasty what?But it seems a little too early to say this right now.

"Who knows? Let's talk about the future. I'm just a small person now, and I've thought so much. By the way, the academy of my father-in-law is about to be completed. I don't know who my father-in-law plans to invite to be the master of the academy?" "Lv Bu doesn't want to talk too much about the future, and talking too much now is just talking for nothing. In comparison, it's more cost-effective to do some practical things.

"Hehe, I'm going to discuss this matter with you. I heard that you have some friendship with Lu Zhi. Can you invite Lu Zhi for me? In addition, I think Xun Yu and Uncle Xun You have nothing to do if they stay by your side. Why don’t you give it all to me?” When Lu Bu spoke, Cai Yong opened his mouth like a lion, wanting Lu Bu to invite Lu Zhi, whoever Lu Zhi is, people in China hope to be able to write and use martial arts, so let Lu Bu invite Lu Zhi, Lu Bu is really serious Fortunately, Lu Zhi lived in seclusion in Longxi, so it would be no problem for Lu Bu to try it.But when it comes to Xun Yu, Lu Bu is a little reluctant. Xun Yu is someone who has Wang Zuozhi's talent and is equivalent to Zhang Liang. Let him teach, but Lu Bu is unwilling in his heart. There must be too many people in the academy. If Xun Yu is allowed to escape Now, Lu Bu probably has the heart to cry. Now Xun Yu Lu Bu has been sending people to watch him, and he dare not relax a bit. Maybe Cao Cao will send someone to rescue Xun Yu anytime.

"Uh, I'll take a look at Mr. Lu Zhi's matter when I have time. As for Xun You, it's not a big problem to let him teach. As long as the father-in-law can convince him, I have no objection. As for Xun Yu, I think it's better to teach him." Forget it, I still want to keep this person by my side and ask for advice often." After thinking for a while, Lu Bu rejected Cai Yong's idea of ​​letting Xun Yu go out of the mountain.But seeing that Cai Yong's expression was not very good, Lu Bu went on to say: "Father-in-law don't have to worry about the teachers of the academy, I have already sent people to Yingchuan, and asked them to bring the Xun family to Xiliang, and now the Central Plains is constantly fighting. I believe that the Xun family will also agree to come to Xiliang, and there will be a group of Xun family members at that time, is it possible that no one will be available for my father-in-law?"
