Lu Bu’s Life Simulator

Even though Lu Bu's smile is much normal now, when he really has bad intentions, the pressure brought by his smile is still great, especially as an enemy not long ago... Of course, it is also now.

"Marquis Wen, this battle between Marquis Wen and our lord is mostly due to a misunderstanding. Our lord has a long-standing reputation as an imperial tutor. He humbly asks for advice and is not detaining intentionally." Yan Xiang suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and bowed to Lu Bu. .

"Most wars in this world can be said to be misunderstandings, but...what's the use?" Lu Bu looked at Yan Xiang and asked with a smile.

Let's be practical. Just saying there is a misunderstanding is of no use?

Yan Xiang naturally understood the implication of Lu Bu's words, and felt quite helpless. This Lu Bu was obviously a martial artist, but he didn't look like a novice in political negotiations.

At that moment, he began to tell Yuan Shu's plan slowly. Of course, he couldn't reveal everything at the beginning. Naturally, Yan Xiang also wanted to gain more benefits for Yuan Shu.

So at the beginning, we hoped that based on the city Lu Bu currently occupies, everyone would share Nanyang. Of course, we couldn’t say that it was given, because the world belonged to the imperial court. We had to put it another way. For example, Yuan Shu was incompetent, betrayed the imperial court’s trust, and failed to Nanyang was well managed, so Nanyang was returned to the imperial court, and the imperial court was asked to choose another capable person.

Lu Bu now occupies basically the area west of Zhongyang Mountain and south of Hengshan Mountain and Funiu Mountain. The area north of Funiu Mountain is still in Yuan Shu's hands.

But Lu Bu came here for Nanyang, there was no reason to just take half and leave, and Yuan Shu was completely defeated now, why should he bargain with Lu Bu?

What I conquer belongs to me? Then let me talk to you!

Yan Xiang was helpless. Although Lu Bu's words were indecent, he was very clear in his heart. It was not easy to fool him. Is he really a reckless man? I feel that apart from speaking vulgarly, Lu Bu is as good at eloquence as any other person in the world.

In the end, Yan Xiangzhi was able to hand over his trump card, and the whole of Nanyang was returned to the court, and the court was no longer allowed to hold Yuan Shu accountable for this matter.

At this point, the negotiation has been concluded and Yuan Shu will leave Nanyang as soon as possible. Lu Bu will not use this matter to attack Yuan Shu again.

"What else do you have, sir?" Seeing that Yan Xiang still didn't leave after finishing speaking, Lu Bu looked at Yan Xiang and asked with a smile.

"There is one more thing that needs to be discussed with Marquis Wen." Yan Xiang saluted Lu Bu. He came this time not just to return people and land.

"Oh?" Lu Bu looked at Yan Xiang and asked with a smile, "What's the matter? Tell me."

The matter is naturally a matter of Yuan Shu's official position. Yuan Shao was respected as a general by Lu Bu, but Yuan Shu was only a rear general, and Yuan Shao was ranked among the three princes. Even in these troubled times, the status of the general is still slightly higher than that of the three princes. It can be said that he is the lintel of the family.

Yuan Shu was obviously of higher origin than Yuan Shao, had a larger territory than Yuan Shao, and was stronger than Yuan Shao, but in the end he was just a rear general. This made Yuan Shu feel a little unbalanced. This was also the reason why Yuan Shu detained Ma Rixi.

Did the court consider the Yuan family's face when doing this? Do you take Yuan Shu into consideration?

Therefore, Yuan Shu asked Yan Xiang to come here. In addition to apologizing and acknowledging his mistake, he also hoped that the court could give Yuan Shu a status that matched his status, at least not much worse than Yuan Shao, so that he would feel as if he was being suppressed by Yuan Shao.

Seeking an official position?

Lu Bu had expected this. In fact, even if Yuan Shu didn't say anything about it, he was still prepared to give Yuan Shu a third-gong position, so that Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao would fight more fiercely.

But now, after a battle with Yuan Shu, Lu Bu doubted whether Yuan Shu had the ability to fight Yuan Shao. Although Yuan Shu was now the most powerful, with a large population and sufficient troops under his rule, even if Nanyang lost the battle this time, he would be able to recover quickly. Vitality, but fighting is not just about these.

With Yuan Shu's current prodigal situation, if he fights a few large-scale battles, there probably won't be much left.

"I can't make the decision on this matter for the time being. After all, the position of the three princes is intact. If the general of chariots and cavalry is willing, he can be granted this position. As for the three princes... Now the three princes in the court are all virtuous people, how can they be dismissed lightly? "In the end, Lu Bu did not agree to Yan Xiang immediately, but asked him to go back and wait for notification.

Yan Xiang also knew that this matter could not go too smoothly. This was one of the capitals Lu Bu had in his hands now. How could he give it to someone so easily?

After thanking Lu Bu immediately, he bowed and left.

"My lord, I think that the position of the three princes can be given to Yuan Shu." After Yan Xiang left, Li Ru looked at Lu Bu and said with a smile: "Now the struggle between the north and the south between Yuan and Yuan has come to an end. However, after this battle, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu will be wary of the court and his lord, so it may be useful to make a good relationship with Yuan Shu at this time."

Although there are many princes in the world now, they are basically like the Spring and Autumn Period. Yuan Shao is the overlord in the north, while the princes in the south are attached to Yuan Shu. But the difference is that there is an extra Lu Bu who holds the righteousness of the court and is powerful. There was a stalemate, and although the imperial court had gained the land of Nanyang at this time, its power was indeed far inferior to that of the two Yuans. It would be a good thing if one side could be brought together to attack the other side.

Lu Bu groped his chin and said nothing. He could see clearly that there would be a battle between the two Yuan, but at Yuan Shu's level, he felt uncertain about whether he could be on par with Yuan Shao.

"It's okay to give it to him!" In the end, Lu Bu nodded. The three princes actually don't have much meaning in the court now, and after Chang'an passed this incident, whether Zhao Wen and Yang Biao can survive depends on Lu Bu's mood, but killing the two After the people, it will be difficult to find people with corresponding high moral standards to sit in these three positions in a short period of time, so it might as well be divided among them.

Even if Yuan Shu is in trouble, he can still control Yuan Shao and give Lu Bu more time to recuperate. Since he captured Guanzhong, he has hardly had any leisure time for half a year. Now that Guanzhong has been straightened out, there are still many in Nanyang. Problems need to be dealt with. Spring plowing begins shortly after the end of the year. Before that, there are many things to deal with.

Whether Lu Bu's new law is effective or not will be very important next year, so Lu Bu doesn't want to start another war.

In the next few days, for the Nanyang wealthy family, it was like the end of the world, and Yuan Shu gave up on Nanyang!

Although the handover was still in progress, Lu Bu's occupation of Nanyang was already a certainty. A large number of noble families and wealthy families who had not yet entered Lu Bu's rule wanted to leave, but an edict from Lu Bu made many people hesitate.

"The imperial court needs to re-determine the private property of each family. Now that the world is in chaos, the farmland must be re-divided. As long as the court re-measures the farmland that is unclaimed or cannot provide valid evidence, the farmland will be taken back and redistributed by the court!"

This is the edict issued by Lu Bu in the name of the court. In other words, as long as there is no owner of the Nanyang farmland when Lu Bu checks it out, it will all belong to the court. It is useless for you to leave one or two family members to look after the land, and there is no use of the land deed. To use it, the owner must be there.

This edict made many scholars hesitate.

If it were other princes, they would not dare to give this order at all, but Lu Bu was different. Along the way, most of his subordinates were from poor families or small noble families, and there were basically no big noble families. Whoever gave this kind of order to other princes would die, and it was the same for Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu. .

But the biggest difference between Lu Bu and the princes of Guandong is the degree of dependence on aristocratic families. Lu Bu has almost no dependence on aristocratic families and wealthy families. If the wealthy families want to deal with Lu Bu, they can only take the direct approach like many local nobles in Nanyang do now. County magistrates from various places Lu Bu always comes with soldiers and horses, but if there is resistance, he will suppress it immediately. If the local rich want to use the same tactics as before, you can't stop the charge of Xiliang's elite even if you recruit thousands of people.

And for those who resisted, Lu Bu would kill them without any mercy. In the past ten days alone, more than 30 wealthy and aristocratic families in Nanyang were beheaded by Lu Bu. Even though there were so many wealthy families and aristocratic families in Nanyang, Lu Bu How long can it last for so long?

No one is a fool, and some families have begun to contact Lu Bu.

It should be said that this was a sign of weakness to Lu Bu, and Lu Bu should not be ignorant of good and bad, accept the family's surrender, and let everyone rule the world together.

However, Lu Bu did not accept the situation as these families thought. He was challenging.

But no one could have imagined that Lu Bu would pick mostly small families with some reputation but no strength. On the contrary, Lu Bu would be dismissive of the big families and ignore them at all.

What was he thinking about? are you crazy?

Leave big families alone, but only choose poor families, small families or some common people.

Some people think Lu Bu is crazy.

Xiangyang, Lumen Mountain.

"Gong De, do you think Lu Bu's move is unwise?" Sima Hui came here to visit friends today and accidentally chatted with Pang Degong about this matter. He was very interested in Lu Bu's selection method.

Pang Degong shook his head when he heard this: "This Marquis Wen is quite transparent. He knows what he wants. It is not him who is unwise, but those who question this matter."

Sima Hui nodded. Both of them were wise men of the world. They lived in seclusion at the mountain gate and watched the changes in the world with the mentality of bystanders. Lu Bu gave up the big for the small. Many people think it is quite puzzling, but the world is in the game and it is difficult for anyone to escape. Being on the outside means that it is difficult to understand. If one could stay out of the matter, it would not be difficult to understand what Lu Bu did.

To put it bluntly, a big family is difficult to control, and it is difficult to be satisfied. No matter how much you give, it is a matter of course. However, a small family is easier to satisfy, and what they pursue is family development, so it is easier to control.

Lu Bu's move is equivalent to dividing the scholars, wooing small families, and suppressing big families. In terms of talents, except for those top talents, it is to do things and govern. The talents of small families are not necessarily worse than those of big families. What is more important is that they have more people.

Lu Bu's move invisibly erased the shortcomings of his own identity, allowing more people to be used by him, and at the same time suppressed the soldiers from their position of co-ruling the world.

This suppression may not seem obvious now, but in the future as long as Lu Bu does not fall, it will become more and more obvious. The small families join forces with Lu Bu to suppress the big families, and the big families begin to weaken. To a certain extent, in order to protect themselves, they can only surrender to Lu Bu. Then he joined forces with Lu Bu to suppress the big families that had grown from small to large, causing the scholars to enter a period of internal strife and gradually lose their status in co-ruling the world with the emperor!
