Three Kingdoms, at the beginning of the game, recognize the thief as the father, hit the spectacle,

And this person is different from those stars of later generations, in addition to having a good face, his behavior is also full of this kind of heroic and heroic meaning in every move - that is, in the history books of later generations, it is often mentioned, But no one knows what kind of "heroic spirit" this represents.

In addition, it can be seen from his eyebrows and eyes that this man has a lot of strategy in his chest, and the world's mysteries are hidden in his eyes. He is definitely not an ignorant person...

……

Yes, such a perfect young talent is none other than Zhou Yu, the eldest son of the Zhou family in Shu County, Lujiang.

After following Huangfusong on the frontier for a long time, he finally came back.

……

Different from the resentment, jealousy, and arrogance before departure, after the actual training on the battlefield, the current Zhou Yu has grown rapidly, transformed, and has been honed into a suitable jade.

The wind and frost outside the Great Wall did not make Zhou Yu's skin chapped, but left something in his eyes worth thinking about.

Yes, that's the "bottom".

After following Huangfusong for more than half a year, Zhou Yu not only became more diligent in marching and arranging formations, but even led people to meet people, and even became more low-key and calm in terms of self-cultivation.

Now he is no longer as irritable and irritable as before.

The appearance of Zhang Yan changed Zhou Yu's growth environment and his growth trajectory.

It's just that the green hills can't cover it, after all, it's going eastward.Although it is useless to bury it again, it can still be full of energy every night.

Excellent people, no matter what kind of environment they are in, will become excellent.

Zhang Yan took many things from Zhou Yu, but also gave him many things.

After experiencing these setbacks at the age of ten, Zhou Yu grew up faster and more rapidly.

Different from the original world line, he matured earlier this time, and he also got the precepts and deeds of famous generals like Huang Fusong.

The current Zhou Yu...is much stronger than the Jiangdong Mei Zhoulang in the original history.

Chapter 48 Letter

As Huangfusong's registered disciple, it has been almost two months since Zhou Yu returned to Luoyang from the battlefield...

Although counting from the beginning of the year, it has only been less than a year since Zhou Yu followed Huangfusong to crusade against the traitor kingdom, but this Luoyang, compared with the time when he came to see He Jin, is less prosperous and less prosperous.

……

He Jin died. As Zhou Yu's former "boss" and a tool to climb up, he was the first to die in the power struggle in Luoyang, as Zhou Yu expected.

Although this person has worked hard to improve himself, it is still difficult for He Jin to compete with an old fox like Zhang Rang in terms of various scheming tricks.

Not only He Jin, but also his father, Luoyang Ling Zhou Yi, claimed that he was sick and returned to his hometown at the very first moment when the dispute broke out between the Zhongchang servant representing the power of the eunuchs and the general He Jin representing the power of foreign relatives, and fled back overnight. His hometown, Shu County, was lucky not to be involved in the struggle between the two parties.

Even the former emperor, Liu Hong, who was famous for his lewdness and lust, died during the half a year he was on the expedition.

Now Luoyang, with Liu Hong's death, has fallen into a strange state of anarchy.

How are you doing now, Li Chang?Li Xian?

The eldest son, Liu Bian, and the virtuous son, Liu Xie, disappeared at the same time, so there was no need for the two sides to quarrel.

It's useless to argue, Liu Bian and Liu Xie's two little ancestors are not here at all, even if they quarrel, this big man still has no emperor.

……

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that such absurd things can happen, and today's big man has half a foot into his own cemetery.

……

As for Zhou Yu, he also wants to make preparations early to deal with the chaos that will inevitably occur in the future.

It's just a pity that there is still this important thing to do on him now.

He took out a letter inlaid with gold and jade from his bosom, Zhou Yu glanced at it, and then put it back into his bosom.

The reason why he appears here today is precisely because of that letter.

As for the origin of this letter, I am afraid that it will take a while to go back...

……

"Hey, it is said that this Lord Shangshu is resolute and resolute, and he is extremely loyal to the Han family... I don't know if it is true or not."

"If the teacher's judgment is wrong, I'm afraid there will be some trouble today."

……

Sighing silently, Zhou Yu took a sip of the sake in the glass, then slowly closed his eyes, recalling what happened before.

No matter what happened in the past, but now that the disputes in this world have emerged, then you have to prepare for the future.

……

In troubled times, what is the most important?

is a person?Is it money?Or supplies?

……

neither!

……

In this troubled world, the most important thing is soldiers and horses!

Recalling Zhang Yan's various actions in Lujiang, Zhou Yu combined what he saw and heard in his hometown last year, and finally came to a conclusion.

That is why Zhang Yan was able to achieve such a great achievement in Lujiang. The most important and decisive factor is that he led more than [-] soldiers and horses, and with a posture capable of sweeping all the local forces in Lujiang, he boarded the The position of Lujiang prefect.

The military power in this is even more important than his background in the court!

……

If there is no such military power, then in fact, Zhang Yan, like the countless eunuchs of this big man, must make checks and balances among the forces under his command. If he wants to suppress bandits or make some achievements, he still has to think about how to persuade The aristocratic family, let the aristocratic family under his command cooperate with him.

If he didn't have his own soldiers and horses, even though Zhang Yan made outstanding achievements in the end, he would still be within the rule system woven together by the world's aristocratic families!

……

And now?

With more than [-] soldiers and horses belonging to him alone, Zhang Yan swept all dissatisfied people in Lujiang with thunderous force as soon as he came up.Whether it is internal struggle or external banditry, in the face of his absolute strength gap, he has no chance to resist at all.

More importantly, when he broke the rules once and made a profit from it, he would have a second or even a third chance to break the rules.

The reason why Lujiang was able to develop like a snowball, and the reason why Zhang Yan was able to have absolute control over Lujiang like a local emperor, was precisely because of this reason!

……

Therefore, if you want to gain momentum in troubled times, the first thing is to have an absolute number of troops that can support you!

Zhou Yu bit her lip lightly, thinking silently.

Back then, Zhang Yan, in order to achieve this step, first obtained the control of a small army through connections, and then participated in a war with a rather low intensity in Zhou Yu's eyes.

It was in this war that Zhang Yan won the war by relying on that little bit of elites and the bravery that Zhang Rang had recruited for him as a foundation...

Most importantly, he recruited a large number of captives, and adapted them all into his own power!

This is terrifying.

Even though each of Zhang Yan's three steps is not too difficult, it is precisely because of the advantages he has accumulated over and over again that he has come to this day...

……

On the other hand, Zhou Yu, although he is also from a family of officials, but with the financial and material resources of the Zhou family, he wants to be like Zhang Rang at the beginning, and directly spend money to recruit four thousand young men for him, which is basically no different from an idiot's dream.

Not to mention that after the recruits are recruited, if there are no veterans to lead the team, then if they want to officially enter the battlefield, they will have to practice the army for several months beforehand...

……

In fact, for Zhou Yu, training the army is not difficult for him.

At the beginning, Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were training in Changsha. Whether it was an ordinary soldier or a sailor, Zhou Yu had training experience, and the results were not bad.

In other words, without looking at the beginning, Zhang Yan's later methods, such as fighting to support war, were not difficult for Zhou Yu.

The real difficulty is where to get the "start-up capital" for the first step.

……

Now the rest of the question is simple.

As long as Zhou Yu is given a little capital, he will have the confidence to snowball bigger and bigger like Zhang Yan did back then, until he finally realizes his ideal, his ambition.

Where does the money come from?

Also, even if the money is there, where will the recruiters come from...?

……

You know, recruiting soldiers and buying horses is not like recruiting workers to do things. If you don't have a suitable name, it's easy to be labeled as treasonous!

Either, just like Zhou Yu in the original world, after he became Danyang prefect from his father Zhou Shang, he went to Danyang to recruit soldiers...or he could learn from Cao Cao later and find an excuse for himself, or the Qing emperor's side, or Jingguo Difficulty, it is possible to be recognized by the people of the world.

After thinking about it, Zhou Yu found that with the resources he currently has, it is almost impossible to save such a start-up capital for no reason.

……

Coincidentally, at the time when he was quite anxious about his future, a letter sent from the Luoyang Palace was placed on the desk of the then army commander, General Zuo Huangfusong.

……

PS: Go to have a meal, there are [-] in the evening

Chapter 49 Will

"So, that's why this letter is so important, isn't it?"

Feeling the gilded letter in his arms, Zhou Yu thought silently.

……

Speaking of this letter, at the earliest time, it actually appeared on the battlefield between Huangfusong and the rebel general Kingdom.

At that time, Zhou Yu had just set off from Luoyang, and with a small number of generals, he followed the famous general Huangfusong, while encircling and suppressing the Xiliang rebel kingdom, while quietly honing his ability and character.
