Chapter 264 Liu Bei Three Brothers
"Master Zhang Rang, I have a request, please help me, I will never forget your kindness." Zhang Yu said.
Zhang Rang frowned twice, and many thoughts flashed through his mind.
"Let's talk." Zhang Rang said lightly, without any emotion.
"I want to recruit soldiers by myself, please give me a copy of the imperial decree, otherwise the name will not be justified." Zhang Yu said.
"Recruit yourself? Wouldn't it be better to have ready-made soldiers deployed from the major battalions to form an army without training? Why bother to recruit again?" Zhang Rang asked puzzled.
"My lord, you don't know. All the armies have been infiltrated by aristocratic families long ago. I and all the aristocratic families are enemies. I am really worried about deploying from other armies. Maybe something goes wrong at a critical moment." Zhang Yu explained. road.
It's okay if Zhang Yu doesn't explain, but Zhang Rang is also worried about this explanation.
Now he only has a few people available, and officers at all levels must use people from aristocratic families.
At that time, if these troops cannot be commanded, it will be a major hidden danger.
"Okay, I will give you the imperial decree tomorrow." Zhang Rang agreed.
Zhang Yu left, and Zhang Rang shot a biting gaze in his eyes.
"If you dared to deceive Ben Hou before, you would be killed." Zhang Rang said.
Zhang Rang was very dissatisfied with Zhang Yu, so he kept such an important matter from him, and waited until now to tell him the truth.
But at this time Zhang Rang could only accept the reality.
At this time, Zhang Yu is not afraid of Zhang Rang at all. Zhang Rang can take everything he has in Luoyang, but his territory is still there, the army is still there, and Liu Hong is still there.
At this time, Liu Hong had great trust in Zhang Yu, even if Zhang Rang wanted to attack Zhang Yu, Liu Hong might not agree.
When Zhang Yu went back, he had no pressure to confess to Zhang Rang, because he knew Zhang Rang's situation very well.
After returning, Zhang Yu called Dian Wei and Guo Jia.
"Feng Xiao, tomorrow you will go to various shops and collect all the money and take them outside the city. We are going to recruit soldiers." Zhang Yu said.
"My lord, if we recruit ourselves and spend our own money to raise soldiers, will the court be suspicious?" Guo Jia said worriedly.
If at other times, he had paid for the soldiers himself, everyone would have suspected that he was going to rebel, but not at this time, Liu Hongba had no choice but to use his money.
"No problem, our Han emperor is the most stingy, he is too happy to be happy, and the current emperor probably doesn't care about it." Zhang Yu said.
Zhang Yu is not afraid, Liu Hong won't live long, and taking the opportunity to develop his own strength is the kingly way.
The next day, Zhang Yu received the imperial decree.
With the imperial decree, Zhang Yu had no scruples and began to recruit soldiers outside the city
He brought a thousand soldiers to Luoyang this time, which happened to come in handy.
Zhang Yu set up a stall outside Luoyang City, which immediately attracted the attention of all parties.
Recruiting troops in Luoyang is no small matter.
Of course, no one dared to stop Zhang Yu. Everyone knew that what Zhang Yu dared to do must rely on something.
The news that Zhang Yu held the imperial decree spread quickly.
On the third day after the recruitment started, Zhang Yu also came outside the city.
The place eight miles outside the city was full of heat.
Lots of people running in circles.
There were soldiers watching all the time, picking people out of these runners.
Everyone who was selected was very excited.
This is the recruitment site for Zhang Yu and the others. The recruitment conditions are very strict, and everyone must be carefully selected.
Although the conditions were harsh, there were still a lot of applicants, and many people rushed over from other places after receiving the news.
Zhang Yu and the others offer good conditions, and being a soldier is almost their only way out.
Serving as a soldier has food, and Zhang Yu can also receive a good settling allowance when serving as a soldier here.
So many people came to recruit soldiers.
"Feng Xiao, how many people have you recruited?" Zhang Yu approached Guo Jia and asked.
"It's not bad. Our conditions are good. Many people are willing to join the army. So far, more than a thousand people have been recruited, and the recruitment will be completed in a few days." Guo Jia said.
Zhang Yu nodded, satisfied with the recruitment of soldiers.
If the requirements are lowered, Zhang Yu and the others can recruit them in five days, but Zhang Yu is unwilling to lower the standard.
The recruitment is going on intensely, and Zhang Yu doesn't need to do it himself.
Those recruited soldiers started a simple Thunder under the leadership of some veterans.
Recruit all within ten days, and then start training, and you will soon be able to train an elite army.
Zhang Yu had nothing else to do, just watched the army training from the sidelines, these were important cornerstones for his future.
"My lord, someone came to see you, claiming to be an old friend."
Zhang Yu was sitting on the sidelines watching the military training when Guo Jia came over and said.
Zhang Yu was puzzled, and Guo Jia pointed to a few people in the distance.
There are seven or eight people in the distance, and the distance is a bit far away, and their faces cannot be seen clearly.
"Evil is coming, let's meet together." Zhang Yu called Dian Wei along with him.
Dian Wei ran over and followed Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu and the three of them went to meet him.
"Brother Meng De, why are you here?" After approaching, Zhang Yu saw Cao Cao coming.
Zhang Yu didn't know the people next to him, but three of them were very imposing, obviously they were not ordinary people.
"Haha, brother Zifan, you've already made it happen." Cao Cao said with a smile.
Zhang Yu shook his head, smiled wryly and said: "I have no choice, I don't have any foundation, if I don't start working as soon as possible, I will be far away from you."
Cao Cao's eyes flashed, he didn't believe Zhang Yu's nonsense.
"Brother Zifan, let me introduce you to these people." Cao Cao looked at the people around him and said.
Zhang Yu paid attention to it, and he knew it was not easy just by looking at a few people.
"This is Liu Bei and Liu Xuande, Brother Zifan must have heard about it a long time ago." Cao Cao pointed to a middle-aged man with big ears next to him and said.
At this time, Liu Bei, in his early thirties, looked honest and honest as described in history.
"These two are his second brother and third brother." Cao Cao introduced again.
Zhang Yu didn't speak, and when he heard that the other party was Liu Bei, he had already guessed the identities of the two people next to him.
Zhang Yu stared at Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and glanced back and forth many times, making everyone puzzled.
"Sure enough, they are two good guys, but it's a pity that they followed Liu Bei." Zhang Yu looked at the two and said secretly.
"This is Guan Yu and Guan Yunchang, so this is Zhang Fei and Zhang Yide. I have admired you for a long time, and the two heroes are heroes in this world." Zhang Yu said loudly.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were taken aback for a moment, unexpectedly Zhang Yu had heard of them.
"The next one is Guan Yu, who has admired Lord Zhang's majesty for a long time. In the northern border, he fought against 100,000 Wuhuan soldiers with his own strength. I really admire it." Guan Yu said with his hands clasped.
"Haha, it turns out that Mr. Zhang also knows the three of us brothers." Zhang Fei directly laughed happily.
On the other hand, Liu Bei's face was a little ugly, Zhang Yu ignored him, and started a relationship with his two younger brothers.
