When Mrs. Yuan learned that Yuan Tan had failed to choose a scattered cavalry and did not even dare to pull the bow open, Mrs. Yuan was very angry and pointed at Yuan Tan's nose and scolded him.
Yuan Tan lowered his head, let alone refuting, he didn't even dare to show off his anger.
He knew how much grievances Mrs. Yuan had suffered in order to give him this opportunity.
After Mrs. Yuan scolded her, she felt confused again.
When did Sanqi have such selection criteria? She has never heard of it. If she had known this before, she would definitely not have let Yuan Tan take the election.
This obviously cannot be achieved.
She was unsure of her mind and did not dare to make rash things, so she decided to inquire before she could.
Then she comforted Yuan Tan, saying that it would be fine if he couldn't choose a Sanqi. Yang Xiu and Huang Yi were not selected as a Sanqi. They could not take on important tasks? You should work hard, study and practice martial arts, and prepare for the martial arts entrance exam.
If you want to go to the Western Regions to make achievements, it is more appropriate to enter the martial arts lecture hall than to select a sanqi.
Yuan Tan was timid, but he felt a little dissatisfied.
Although the requirements of the martial arts lecture hall are not as high as Sanqi, not everyone can pass the exam. Besides, the children of the three generations of four generations have to take the exam with the poor. Is it necessary?
After all, to make contributions to the Western Regions, it is not only because of personal abilities, but also because of the number of soldiers and generals.
Although Yuan Shao was defeated and Yuan Shu surrendered, the emperor was extremely hostile to the Yuan family in Runan, but he could not completely shake the deep foundation accumulated by the Yuan family in Runan.
With the support of Xun Chen, Guo Tu and others, I need to go to the martial arts lecture hall? Isn’t it enough to spend some money and recruit some chores.
But these words cannot be said to Mrs. Yuan.
This is an extremely proud elder.
Even if you can't compete with Yang Xiu, you can't be compared by Huang Yi, otherwise how can Yuan's face be preserved?
Huang Yi was admitted to the martial arts lecture hall and was granted a marquis by virtue of his military merits. He must do the same, and he must make greater contributions and be granted a greater marquis.
But in Yuan Tan's opinion, this is just a woman's opinion.
There are many ways to make meritorious service and become a marquis. Even if the exam for a martial arts lecture hall is not the worst choice, it is definitely not the best.
After saying goodbye and leaving, Guo Tu and Xun Chen were waiting outside, their faces were not very good-looking.
Yuan Tan's failure to run for the Sanqi cavalry made them feel very disappointed. It was not that he failed Yuan Tan, but that he was disappointed with the court.
Yuan Tan's entry into the officialdom may be disappearing little by little.
If they had known what, they would not have entered the dynasty. They would have fought with Yuan Shu with their troops, which was better than the current situation.
Yuan Tan winked, greeted Guo Tu, Xun Chen and left Mrs. Yuan's courtyard together, and then briefly explained the situation.
Guo Tu frowned slightly. "Recruiting the army, traveling west alone?"
Yuan Tan nodded and looked at Guo Tu with some anxiety.
Guo Tu stroked his beard and sucked, but he wanted to speak but stopped.
Yuan Tan was uneasy and turned to look at Xun Chen again.
Xun Chen said slowly: "This method is feasible, but it is difficult to implement urgently. I heard from noble people that there are two ways to march on the grassland, one is to bring your own baggage and the other is to nomadic. If it is the former, you must
How much baggage should you bring? Even if you can purchase some along the way, it will be an amazing fee, exceeding your imagination."
Guo Tu sighed: "At that time, General Ershi conquered Dayuan, he had devoted his power to the country. How could he support such a war with the Ruying clan? I'm afraid it wouldn't be enough to lose all his head."
Yuan Tan frowned and hesitated for a moment. "What about... nomadic?"
Xun Chen smiled bitterly. "Nomadic is feasible, but it takes time to adapt. Life on the grassland is hard, and it is not a day or two. Where can I recruit so many people who can endure the hardship? Even if we can raise enough money, I'm afraid these people will be afraid of
I don’t want to go out of the frontier, let alone nomadic on the grasslands."
Yuan Tan's face became very ugly. "So, if I want to make contributions to the Western Regions, I can only go to the martial arts lecture hall?"
Guo Tu and Xun Chen sighed at the same time. The two looked at each other, and Guo Tu spoke slowly.
"Xi Si, only the court can implement such a war that a large army has been expeditioning to the Western Regions. With personal ability, one can only choose elite troops like Ban Dingyuan, use barbarians to control barbarians and restrain the countries. Even so, the court must be backed up. At present, it is time to see
Come on, taking the martial arts lecture exam is one of the most feasible ways.”
Yuan Tan closed his mouth tightly.
He was very frustrated, and the result was definitely not what he wanted.
But he has no better choice.
"Or...become a lieutenant first." Guo Tu said tentatively: "I just heard that Liu Bei has arrived in Luoyang. Do you want to see him? If not, contact your uncle again and see
Can you ask him to come forward?"
Yuan Tan was upset. He didn't expect to ask Liu Bei for help in the end.
"Since that's the case, it's not bad at this time. Let's ask my uncle first."
Guo Tu and Xun Chen did not persuade him again.
They were unwilling to get to this point either. After all, not long ago, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei were still enemies.
When Yuan Tan was struggling, Liu Qi did not hesitate at all.
After failing to run for the Sanqi, he learned that Liu Bei had arrived in Luoyang and was the one who went to meet him. Zhao Yun, the left governor of the Sanqi who was assessing them. Liu Qi immediately brought gifts and rushed to Liu Bei's camp to pay his respects.
Liu Bei had just settled down and was waiting for news about Zhuge Jin in the camp. He heard that Liu Qi was visiting him, but in an accident, he personally went to the camp gate to greet him.
He met Liu Biao ten years ago. However, he was a humble person at that time. Although he was a disciple of Lu Zhi, his knowledge was in a mess. Even his teacher Lu Zhi was unwilling to support him, let alone Liu Biao.
A famous man with noble origins and excellent knowledge and morality.
He had asked to meet Liu Biao many times and wanted to make a decision in the Northern Army, but he failed to do it.
I don’t expect that in ten years, Liu Biao’s son Liu Qi will take the initiative to visit him.
When the two met, they said they admired each other and were extremely intimate.
Liu Qi wanted to regard himself as his nephew, but Liu Bei didn't even dare to say that he was only a few years older than Liu Qi, so it would be better to call him brothers.
The two tacitly avoided the choice of judging seniority based on genealogy.
After all, even he himself can't explain Liu Bei's genealogy, so he can't even argue. If the generational gap between the two sides is too big, it will not end.
So, Liu Bei was his brother and Liu Qi was his brother.
The two joined hands to join hands and took a seat. After a greeting, Liu Qi tactfully proposed that he hoped to ask Liu Bei to teach some training methods to deal with the upcoming reading.
He and Kuai Yue brought both elite troops. But after reaching Ping Leguan, he saw the imperial guards under the emperor and the soldiers under Han Sui, and knew that the gap was too far, so it was impossible for him to be outstanding in the big reading. Instead, he was embarrassed.
possible.
Liu Bei defended Pengcheng with 20,000 newly recruited soldiers, blocked Yuan Shao's strong attack and restored his clan to this. It seems that he has outstanding skills in the training methods. If Liu Bei could ask for some advice, he might be able to save some face.
Of course, it would be even better if you could join Liu Bei's army.
After Kuai Yue intended to accept the conditions of the court and became the prefect of Wei County, Liu Qi knew that the friendship between their father and son and the people of Jingxiang ended here. For the sake of his future, he had to find a way out.
Instead of being a sergeant in the palace, it is better to go to Liu Bei to find a job and a half.
It would be even better if Liu Bei could make him a side general, lead a battalion of troops and stand on his own.
Liu Bei heard what Liu Qi meant, but did not agree immediately.
He told Liu Qi that with Lingzun's fame and talent, the court will definitely not abandon it. If you don't dislike it, I would like to ask someone to inquire about the emperor's ideas and then make a decision.
