Three Kingdoms

  Heluo area.

   A group of Yang soldiers are patrolling the ferry in boredom.

To be honest, if the Yang family in Heluo had some ulterior motives in the early days, it is basically a rotten type now, and anyone with a little brain would not choose to join the Yang family, or go to the east , or go to the west, and even many of the soldiers under his command have run away. If it weren't for Fei Qian's recruiting, he was looking for good families. It's really hard to say how many big soldiers will be left in Heluo.

   There is no future, but I have to make some money.

  The land of Heluo itself is an excellent place, but it is a pity that although this land has eight passes, it is difficult to stick to it.

   But now on these points, for the soldiers of the Yang family, as long as they can be ripped off, anything is fine.

In the middle and upper reaches of the big river, the water flow is relatively turbulent. Even in autumn and winter, it is not said that you can cross the river casually. Series famous Tsuwa.

   Xiaopingjin is to the east of Mengjin, and together with Mengjin, it has become the northern pass to defend Luoyang, but its importance is far less than that of Mengjin.

  Mengjin is now garrisoned by the Feiqian side, with regular military forts and soldiers, but Xiaopingjin is not conducive to defense because of the flat terrain, and the old barriers are also abandoned, so there is no military fortress. Most of the general merchants will choose to go to Mengjin, because although Mengjin has soldiers stationed, as long as it is not tax evasion and smuggling, the soldiers stationed in Mengjin will not charge extra.

   Those who go to Xiaopingjin are generally relatively few, but not none. For even a small tax, there are merchants who want to escape, and often small merchants. The smaller the businessman, the more he feels that the tax is heavy, and he is unwilling to pay these costs, but he must bear the corresponding risks.

  Yang's soldiers came to arrest these people.

  It's just that these small businessmen generally have little wealth, and they can seldom squeeze out much oil and water. It can only be regarded as better than nothing, and catching one is an extra joy.

  Yang's soldiers were lying or sitting lazily, and almost no one deliberately stared at the ferry. They come out to breathe and be lazy, so it's natural if they can catch it, and it's normal if they can't catch it, and they don't think that they must be dedicated to their duties.

  Yang Biao and Yang Xiu, father and son, if they are poets and songs, they are naturally romantic talents, but it is really difficult for them to start from scratch and build a strong Heluo region from scratch. The most important thing is not to say that the Yangs and his sons have no talents, but that they are so talented that they are divorced from reality and chosen high in the air, unable to understand what the grassroots people want.

  Yang Biao has this problem, and Yang Xiu also has it.

   This disease is really hard to cure.

They know a little about what the common people want, but they don’t care. They also know a little about what is important for soldiers, and they don’t care about it. Therefore, both the common people and the soldiers are just tools in Yang’s eyes. What emotions do tools have, and want to know what tools are thinking?

  Yang Biao and Yang Xiu both think that they are the hardest people in the world and have endured the most suffering.

  In the world, is there another person, which family, who can be like the Yang family, even if the emperor has left, he is loyal to his duty, conscientious, diligently guarding, and repairing Luoyang City?

No!

  Only Yang!

  For the sake of the world, for today's day, the only one who guards the last face of the big man is the Yang family!

   Is it bitter? !

  Is it difficult? !

  But why in this world, can't understand Yang's suffering?

Yang Biao and Yang Xiu thought that the most difficult thing was to rebuild Luoyang City, but he didn’t expect that it would be difficult to repair the city wall on the physical level, but it would be even more difficult to repair the city wall in the hearts of the people, and the key point was that Yang could not find a loophole Where exactly is it!

  『If I don’t pay my soldiers this month, I won’t work in this Heluo bird place! Even going to Chang'an to work as a coolie is happier than working under this bird Yang! 』

  『I don’t know what’s going on in this world? 』

  『Being a soldier all your life, what else do you want to do? Don't think about those things, those things, the master above the court thinks, what are you thinking about, a guy with no money in his waist? 』

  『But those court masters don’t want to! Or those guys never thought the same as us! 』

  『Don't...don't **** talk nonsense, hey, here comes the business! 』

The soldiers of the Yang family who were sitting or lying in the grass suddenly regained their spirits, and one by one stretched out their necks from the grass, like groundhogs headed from the depths of the hole, and immediately saw On the tidal flat not far away, a caravan was crossing the river.

"Hey! There is really a blind eye to go this way! 』

Yang's soldiers were immediately overjoyed, fearing that the group of people would flee back again, they quickly retracted their necks one by one, just peering through the cracks in the grass, endured until the group of people had crossed the river, and jumped Then, he rushed directly to the crude ferry, blocking the group of businessmen on the river bank.

  The person who looked like the leader of the caravan seemed to have some experience, stopped the radical actions of a few obviously guards, and handed over a bag of coins with a smile.

  The leader of Yang's soldiers threw the money bag up and down, but his eyes were not on the money bag, but stared at the goods in the caravan desperately, and he couldn't hide the greedy look on his face.

   This is a big fish!

   It's hard to meet a big fish once!

  I originally thought that most caravans of this size would go to Mengjin Zhengjing Ferry, but I didn’t expect to go here!

  This means that the goods in front of you cannot be seen!

  Squad leader Yang doesn't care about smuggling or not, or whether there is any tax payment. He just wants to make a fortune. Seeing the current situation, how can he let them go so easily?

  Anyone who can give such a bag of money as soon as they meet, must be able to give another two bags, three bags!

   Seems to be aware of the greed of the young captain of the Yang family, the caravan leader said coldly: "This is the Hanoi Li family, and I have some friendship with the Guishang Yang family..."

  Little Captain Yang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Do you know my nobleman?" 』

  The caravan leader nodded, "Naturally. 』

   Captain Yang pointed to himself again, "Then do you recognize me?" 』

  This time it was the caravan leader's turn to be stunned, "This... I don't recognize it. 』

  『Ahaha, what a fart! ’ Captain Yang stretched out his hand and waved, ‘Check it out for me! See what's hidden here! 』

  Yang's soldiers responded with a bang, and then they stepped forward and immediately tore up the goods. Soon they discovered that the goods transported in the caravan turned out to be bundled weapons!

  Weapons!

   Smuggle weapons!

Ha ha! This is worth a fortune!

  But at the next moment, the excited Captain Yang felt something was wrong...

  Because normally speaking, Chang’an Sansuke’s weapons are smuggled out, and it is rare to hear of weapons being smuggled in the direction of Chang’an, unless it is…

  Unfortunately, it's too late.

When they pulled the hidden weapons from the cargo to the ground, either a little happy or a little dazed, the soldiers of Cao Jun who had pretended to be honest businessmen suddenly showed a ferocious side. The "caravan leader" unceremoniously took out the knife, separated the scabbard that Captain Yang had thrown over in a hurry, and then plunged the knife into his chest and abdomen, stirring viciously twice, "Here You got money! You do not want! Tell you not to! 』

These Yang soldiers who did not have much training on weekdays, their legs were numb when they saw blood, they were not the opponents of these Cao soldiers who pretended to be merchants, and they were quickly hacked to death. After running two or three hundred steps, Cao Jun who overtook him cut off his head with a knife.

  『What about these corpses? Throw it into the river? 』

   asked Cao Jun's soldiers who were cleaning the battlefield.

  『You are stupid, throwing it into the river, isn’t it just telling the people downstream that something happened upstream? ”The commander of Cao Jun said, “Go to the side, find an open space, dig a hole and bury it!” What the hell! When I left last time, there was no one there, but this time I went against evil! act fast! Gather the loose things! 』

   Several blood-stained Cao soldiers squatted on the ground, wiping their hands with sand.

  『Captain, I heard that the soldiers in Chang’an pay much more...』

  『If you have money...』 Captain Cao sneered and said, 『You also need to have life flowers! I know that your family has nothing to worry about...but think about it for yourself, even if you voted in, how can you be trusted? Give you money without saying a word, let you spend it? If this good thing were you, what would you do? 』

  The soldier wiping blood shook his head, laughed, "I just said that casually..."

  『It’s okay to talk casually once in a while, and things can’t be done casually... 』 Said Captain Cao, 『If the school official finds out...』

  As soon as the words "Xiao Shi Lang" came out, the surrounding temperature seemed to drop a lot in an instant, and even the movements inevitably became stiff.

  『Work, work...』

   Everyone lost interest in chatting, and only kept their heads down to work.

  ...(／_＼)...

  In Luoyang City, the Yang family, one old and one young, sat in the hall.

  In the high hall, the Four Knows plaque watched these two people quietly.

  Yang Zhen, famous for a while, but only for a while, the rest can only be maintained by future generations. Those who can continue to add luster and luster can naturally be passed on from generation to generation, and once the gap between Wei Duan and Wei Kang is too large to be passed on smoothly, the decline of the family will happen in an instant. But now, Yang is already standing on the edge of a cliff.

  Bing, there is, but it is almost the same as no.

  Will, have, also slightly equal to nothing.

   The Yang family has fields and assets, cities and villages, population and food, but compared with the two behemoths around them, it is very pitiful.

  No way, if you choose the wrong path, it may affect you not for a while, but for a lifetime.

At the beginning, Yang Biao, as a man of Hongnong, could be regarded as a member of the pass, or he could choose to be outside the pass. Then Yang Biao felt that the power outside the pass was greater, so he had both sides at first, and then completely turned to the outside of the pass. Beidi was sold cleanly, regardless of how Guanzhong would end up after the chaos in Xiqiang.

Therefore, the people in Guanzhong and Beidi will naturally not respect Yang Biao, and the Shandong people who guard their honor also did not give Yang Biao any good face. When the Shandong people were facing threats, they did not regard Yang Biao as a Instead, he kicked him out of the game table.

Then Yang Biao chose to use the Tianzi card again. His previous fame wanted to be an empty-handed white wolf, but unfortunately he made a wrong choice again and had to retire. It is equivalent to the early days of warlords in later generations. With a little face, I can still be an apartment in Jinkou. But in the later period of the warlord, there is not so much attention...

   Therefore, Yang Biao retreated first to avoid the fate of Er Yuan, which is not unwise. It can be regarded as a chaotic start, but the ending is below average, not the worst.

   It's just that his son missed the right direction perfectly in the follow-up choices...

   But from Yang Xiu's standpoint, he felt that his choice was not wrong.

  How could it be wrong?

   Again, he must have chosen this way.

  The Great Han Dynasty, who can represent the Great Han, is naturally the Son of Heaven, and under the Son of Heaven, there are not hundreds of officials, but two capitals. Baiguan is replaced every year. Yesterday it was Sangong, but today it may be because the sun is too big or too small, and then directly step down and take the blame. There are only two in Kyoto, strictly speaking, there is only one, and that is Luoyang.

Chang'an was not very good when Fei Qian didn't take over, and then it was ruined once again during Dong Zhuo's time, and was destroyed again by Li and Guo. How much climate do you think Chang'an will have.

   There is no one who needs people, no one who needs officials, no products if you want products, no development if you want to develop, and it may not be able to develop in ten years!

  Whether it is in the eyes of Yang Xiu or in the perception of the Shandong gentry, Fei Qian is actually the third generation of Dong Zhuo, and Li Guo will have no future if he returns. So from the visual point of view at that time, the Shandong gentry and Yang Xiu's choice, is there something wrong?

  How many people in the world have great perseverance, boldness, and determination, and they will choose a weak one, but what is the right direction? More than just following the crowd!

It's like everyone in the later generations knows to watch some boring and funny short videos. Most of them are a waste of time. They can't learn much knowledge and hurt their cervical spine. There is also a weak voice in their hearts that keeps reminding them, but who really Care?

   Brush first before talking, play first before talking, and enjoy yourself before talking.

In Yang Xiu's opinion, it is difficult for Fei Qian to develop, and he can only fall into a predicament in the end if he only guards a piece of land. Powerful, but empty in the end!

  So, on the one hand, in order not to end up with the infamy of being a thief, on the other hand, the Luo Yang thrown by Fei Qian is really too tempting...

  Kyoto!

  Yang Xiu spent his entire youth in the capital.

  Hongnong is his hometown, but he feels that Kyoto is his home.

   is the soul of the big man!

  So when Fei Qian threw the bait in front of him, even though he knew the bait was poisonous, he couldn't help but swallow it.

   Now, the poison is attacking...

  Because of Chang'an's economic development, the siphon effect produced has a particularly large impact on surrounding counties.

Hedong is relatively better, but only around Pingyang, and in other original Hedong counties, almost all families have people who have gone to Chang'an to study, do business, and run a single gang, while Hongnong is terrible. .

During the war, Hongnong never recovered. Even the refugees from Hongnong County did not want to come back after they settled in Guanzhong or Hexi. the population inside.

  Without population, there would be no property, and there would be no talk of cultivating strength.

  If it weren’t for these years of dealing with things and earning a little money...

   But now things are obviously going to war, and they are a praying mantis under the great wheel of war. Are they holding their claws to block the east, or are they facing the west?

  『There are so many people in Guanzhong, it looks a little chaotic on the surface, but in fact... 』 Yang Xiu let out a long breath, 『Hussars like to play this game the most, and now it is... But, how can this person be easily tempted? If you are not careful, it will be self-defeating...」

  『People’s hearts? 』After all, Yang Biao was a little more mature, so he couldn't help shaking his head and smiling.

  『Father, do you really think…』 Yang Xiu frowned and said, 『Pang Shiyuan even counted this matter? 』

  Yang Biao stood up, leaning on crutches, walked to the window, looked west, and took a long breath, "Xiu'er, you and I both know that people's hearts should not be tested. How could General Hussars, Pang Shiyuan, etc. not know?" Now that you know it, you want to test it, but why? Knowingly committing a crime? 』

  Yang Xiu froze for a moment, then nodded slowly, "If that's the case...it's true..."

   Can’t people’s hearts be constantly tempted?

Why?

  Because human nature cannot stand the test?

  Then, can those hearts that cannot stand the test and are tempted be considered human hearts?

  In order to avoid this consequence, there are two situations. One is to cover one’s own eyes, indicating that there will be no ghosts if you don’t try, and everyone is a good person. The other is to test from time to time. When there should be a ghost, there must be a ghost, and you are ready to catch the ghost.

  In fact, to put it simply, it is still a question of "degree".

For those who can't control the "speed" well, problems will arise as soon as they do practical things. They are either too light or too heavy. Too light will not have a deterrent effect, but will make the ghosts more rampant. It makes people panic and careless, and they can't control their own strength no matter what, so they can only stand aside and sigh sadly, trying to do nothing, so they won't make mistakes, holding high "the human heart cannot be tested" as their own Exemption excuse.

  But people can change, sometimes they are human, and sometimes they are ghosts. From time to time, they are tested. How can they be sure whether it is a human or a ghost?

  『Pang Shiyuan’s calculations are exquisite! ’ Yang Biao was grinding his teeth a bit when he said that, ‘He wanted to clean up Chang’an Sanfu and prepare for the battle, but he pushed Yang to the edge of the fire pit...Damn it, **** it! 』
