There were traversing Xianbei Huqi in Mayi County. When this news came to Zhang's Wubao, the alert was much more severe than usual.

"The defense is too tight, so the Hu cavalry can only retreat when they see the difficulties. It is better to loosen the outside and tighten the inside and lure the Hu people to attack." Zhang Liao suggested this.

"Show the enemy is weak?"

Zhang Xinghu's eyes lit up and immediately expressed his opinion: "I think it is feasible. Take this opportunity to kill a few more slave chiefs to contribute their merits to the county magistrate. If the position of the county magistrate of his brother Zhang Wu can be promoted one step further, it will be the best."

"In the past, whenever the slave chief attacked, we just couldn't stand it. It would be best to intimidate the Hu cavalry with the troops. As long as we can protect the safety of our tribesmen, we have never taken any risk."

Zhang Qi was interested, but he still had some concerns and emphasized: "Even if we make contributions, we will be greatly reduced when we report to the county. In addition, most landlords and wealthy families only want to maintain their family business. If they rashly show off their strength and attract the attention of the county magistrate, they will definitely recruit more troops to defend against the enemy in the future."

Zhang Liao knew that keeping a masculine hiding his edge was also a way of survival, and he did not let the county magistrate and county magistrate know the reality of Zhang's family. Just like this time, Zhang Wu had to agree with the Zhang family's troops to guard the Mayi county, and the force of the troops transferred was extremely limited.

If the sharpness is revealed, the next time the Xianbei attacks, the county magistrate will definitely ask more Zhang troops to guard the city. It would be possible to weaken the power of the powerful people in the country by the way.

"If you want to move forward bravely with an aggressive attitude, you must maintain your spirit of progress. As far as I know, Guo Ze, the eldest son of the county, is a wise minister of the Qingliu, and is virtuous. He has been in the position of the county supreme for eight years. Although he looks down on my wealthy family in Zhang, as long as our Zhang family helps to help him govern the people, he is too lazy to care about how many divisions Zhang has. As long as we do not rebel, who cares, as long as we can maintain the division, the number of divisions is not enough to worry about. Besides, it is necessary to deliberately expose a certain number of divisions at the appropriate time, and there is no need to expose them all."

Zhang Liao had his own profound considerations. It is important to know that the private sector relies on their own money and grain to support them, and the court will not allocate a ration or a coin.

If it was during peacetime, no one would be willing to do such a money-consuming task in which the storm was so expensive, and if there were war disasters, the imperial soldiers would suppress it. It would be like the powerful people in the border counties like the Zhang family, and in order to protect themselves, they would have to accumulate a storm.

The amount of the department is naturally related to the family business.

The richer the home business, the more you understand that you cannot save the home business without enough strength.

For example, the counties in the capital have been peaceful for a long time. Even if they are rich, they only keep some Hakka people as guards and keep hundreds of tribes. There are very few things like this. No one will spend money and food on the tribes. The extravagant and extremely lustful enjoyment of wine and sex is important.

Zhang Liao knew that in history, he was valued by the later Bingzhou Governor Ding Yuan because of his bravery, and was conscripted as a leader. Among them, the manifestation of martial spirit is not only because of his extraordinary personal force, but also the existence of the family tribe is an important manifestation of his bravery.

Now, the foundation of the Han Dynasty has not yet collapsed, and the scene of a wealthy family supporting their own troops has not yet appeared. However, he knew very well that this day would come soon, and that time would be the beginning of the chaotic battle.

If the world is in chaos and the situation is decay, then a landlord and wealthy family like the Zhang family will naturally take advantage of all opportunities to strengthen the family's foundation. Unfortunately, the situation has not yet become so decayed. The clan members have their own concerns about Zhang Liao's plan to show his family's strength in advance.

"If the county magistrate recruits the Zhang family as the forefront, the situation will be worrying. At that time, you must obey the orders of the county magistrate. If you do not obey, will it lead to a disaster? The children of aristocratic families ignore the recruitment of prefectures and counties, which is to maintain fame. If a landlord like my Zhang family does not obey the orders of the county magistrate, they will probably die."

Zhang Xing had to make a deep analysis of the possible dangerous consequences.

"If the county magistrate recruits the Zhang family, I will naturally lead the troops to follow the order. I can be sure that even if the county magistrate recruits the troops, he will still have the intention of enriching the army, and there will be no idea of ​​eliminating the landlords and wealthy families."

In order to dispel everyone's concerns, Zhang Liao swears: "Whether it is the county magistrate or the county magistrate, the wealthy families in various places need to maintain the local rule. As long as they follow the orders, they can do nothing to make their own turmoil."

"I'm willing to be the foreman."

Cao Xing’s five simple words expressed support for Zhang Liao’s plan.

Zhang Tian said convincingly: "I agree with Zhang Liao's analysis. As far as I know, the county magistrates north of Yanmen County only regret that the landlords and wealthy families under their rule were not strong enough, no one helped them share the pressure of the Xianbei invasion, and no one helped them protect the county town together. As for the county magistrate, he only regretted that the war soldiers under his command were not enough, so that they were repeatedly attacked by the Hu Qi. If they were lucky enough to be favored by the county magistrate, it would be a good thing. This is an opportunity to shine the lintel with military positions. For the county magistrate, there would be soldiers available without spending money and food. This is a win-win situation of mutual benefit."

"I have been living in Wubao all day long. My vision is too narrow. I don't have such a understanding." Zhang Xing looked at Zhang Tianman with shame.

"The military career is also the happy life I yearn for. I practice the music all day long. If I have the opportunity to display it, I can be a striker." Zhang Qi's concerns disappeared immediately, and he looked eager to try.

After everyone's opinions were highly unified, Zhang Liao smiled with satisfaction. Looking at these familiar faces, God knew that his reputation was recorded in history and ranked among the 64 generals in ancient and modern times. Among them, the contribution of the tribesmen behind him was so huge.

Sacrifice is so tragic. After all, one general succeeded and thousands of bones were destroyed, and most of the general's personal soldiers were the clan members, followed by the villagers.

In the era of cold weapons, the probability of personal soldiers being killed and injured is very high. This is because every general will lead the way when fighting, and will only command the three armies after becoming the commander. Otherwise, in most cases, the generals on the battlefield will always be in the forefront.

"After telling the patriarch what we think, I think we can act according to the plan." Zhang Xing spoke slowly.

Zhang Xun was very happy when he learned that the lead in acting was Zhang Liao.

Subsequently, the number of troops above Wubao decreased, and only three or four hundred remaining troops with leather armor was barely half, and the sharp weapons were mostly removed by wooden guns.

Everyone in the Zhang family was waiting for each other, but the Xianbei Hu Qi did not disappoint them.

Near the afternoon, more than 200 Hu cavalry arrived outside Wubao amid the noisy shouts. The earth shook slightly under the trampling of iron hooves, and dust flew with the wind.
